The second part of Umineko is a conclusion to all the questions that were posed in the previous arc. The mystery finally unravels and the motives behind Rokkenjima become more clear.

Title
The best story ever told in a videogame (by a fairly substantial margin). The best cast of characters ever in a videogame (by a fairly substantial margin). A strong contender for richest atmosphere ever in a videogame. A strong contender for best soundtrack ever in a videogame.

The Answer Arcs in particular are some of the finest works of narrative fiction ever made. Catch-22, The Wire, Watchmen. That is the territory here.

What are you waiting for?

Title
The conclusion of what is personally my favorite narrative I've ever experienced, the Answer arcs wrap up the mysteries established in the first series with perhaps the most soul-crushingly beautiful, unforgettable ending ever. More incredible music, more development for each character (you will still come to love them all by at least the third chapter in the previous installment), and other treats await you here.

This series' eclectic nature is easily one of is strongest suits. Both the first and second installments feature remarkable romance, horror, mystery, and even action, the reading of which is far more thrilling than one might first anticipate.

This series clocks in to around 100-120 hours and features some honestly irritating repetition at times, but I can't recommend it enough.

    Has anyone that rated this 0.5 actually played it, or do they just have some anti-VN bias? I'm perplexed at how this is still a thing

    • shunkhood 2023-06-07 01:39:51.000615+00
      im betting all 13 of them have not played it, definitely just anti visual novel people... which is sad because umineko is such a great experience, the way these people write it off just because it's just reading is very disappointing...
