Decay Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 I've actually been trying to get into Symphonic Rain since it's so highly rated but it's just so boring. The dialog puts me to sleep and the terrible art doesn't help. I simply don't understand what anyone sees in that VN. Seriously, what is it that makes it good? Quote

Kosakyun Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 All of these Symphonic Rain talk is getting me interested. I guess I'll get it. Quote
Decay Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 How far'd you get? If I had to rate Symphonic Rain before reaching the heart of it, I'd actually rate it like a 7 out of 10 (currently rating it a 9 on VNDB xD) because I agree that it gets pretty damn draggy, not to mention the outdated art. The heart of it is what makes it so good. It is encountered after completing Fal, Lise, and Torta's routes. Similar to how (semi spoilers) Little Buster's heart is encountered after completing all routes but at least Little Buster's routes were interesting(?) xD Quote

Snowtsuku Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 I haven't even gotten through the common route. 7/10 would be extremely generous to me. It's such a boring slog that I can't play for more than 20 minutes at a time without having a strong desire to stop and do something else. So I have to go through three entire heroine routes before it gets interesting? Why do people like this? Eclipsed 1 Quote
Kosakyun Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 I thought exactly the same thing. B-but... Quote
Sargon Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 I have Forest and Fate/Stay Night Realta Nua under my belt. I should really finish these. Quote
cloudy12 Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 I'm thinking of picking up Shikkoku no Sharnoth after Symphonic Rain since my winter break starts tomorrow so I'll have lots of time to kill. For those who've played the steampunk series, do I have to play Inganock to understand Sharnoth? I've read that it makes references to Inganock. Is it better if I play Inganock before Sharnoth? Quote

Eclipsed Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Read the last route in Symphonic Rain . Misc. Thoughts/Ramblings(spoilers) General thoughts: GAME! Why must you play with my emotions xD Phorni thoughts: Okay sorry, but after going through 'revelation city' aka Al Fine, reading through December trying to get into Phorni's route was super painful (felt really draggy) hehe. But it picks up once Chris finally remembers everything on his own (y'know, I'm surprised in both Al Fine and Phorni route when he finally remembers he doesn't really get overwhelmed that the past THREE years have been a lie. He's just like "I remember." Very casual about it ) Man, I thought Al Fine was the core of it and that Phorni would just be a funzies route, BUT! Phorni = Ari. /end post. Loool really, that's all that needs to be said xD. I had my suspicions ever since the beginning routes where Phorni would kiss Chris on the cheek before vanishing, but man, this was such a beautiful revelation!!!!!!!!!! She's been by his side all this time, supporting him all the way. So friggen' romantic Considering Arietta died in all other routes, I was fully prepared for a heartbreaker ending. Like I was totally bracing myself: Especially since Phorni vanishes. I was like "Are you serious.... Is she really going to die right here, right now?!!" ~~~ But we all know what happens As soon as Arietta opened her eyes I squealed and cried immediately loool. Burned through a shitload of tissues x.x this scene was just soo WONDERFUL!! .^Why so manly Chris I was already crying a river. Still crying btw. It'll stop soon. Symphonic Rain really is phenomenal.

nohman Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Splitting my time for the rest of the week between Quartett! and Kichikuou Rance (finally getting around to it!) Quote

Anyway, that's that. So anybody wanna explain to me how Ari became Phorni and why she insisted on pushing him towards Torta/any recital partner? Oh and overall my favorite BGM would be Arietta's theme (Feel the Rain). Idk, it just captures the elegant sorrowful feeling so nicely I always enjoyed hearing it xD I'm going through the soundtrack right now. All heroine themes are wonderful! Even though there's only 19 tracks (with multiple versions of every track) I never got bored of the music~ ~~~ And now it's time to go read a bunch of reviews on Symphonic Rain to get it out of my system haha. Til' next time folks~ Eclipsed 1 Quote
Mikimir Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 I think im going to play If my heart had wings, Kimi no Nagori wa Shizuka ni Yurete & Hoshizora no memoria and Sharin no Kuni again. Really liked the sharin no kuni, because of the plot, and dropped hoshizora because nothing hapenned for too long My winter break going to be for almost 3 weeks so i have time .Shit is real Quote
Kosakyun Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 I answered my own question. Looks like the time in the forest flows quite differently from that of the real world. Or in another sense, a week passes every time Amamori(?) and Akeru(?) tell a story together. A week's interval per day they tell a story. Hmmm. Quote
Roach Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Finished everything in Everlasting Summer. That was decent for a free game, I guess. Now I'm not sure if I should play Chaos;Head or Sharin no Kuni next. Suggestion, maybe? Quote
