✦ AI summary

Umineko When They Cry - Question Arcs is a lengthy visual novel that demands patience through slow pacing and verbose dialogue in early episodes, but rewards players with increasingly engaging mysteries, compelling twists, and an exceptional soundtrack that keeps many pushing through. While the first two episodes test commitment with their length and pacing, episodes three and four deliver payoffs that most who finish consider worthwhile, though the overall experience is best suited for patient visual novel enthusiasts willing to invest significant time.

I don't think I'll recommend it to anyone even people who love reading visual novel, cuz every episode has a boring part (or maybe just for me) and long ass conversation. I know the scene is important but it's really that long and slow, even in the first 5 hours I thought to drop this and jump on another game but somehow I don't do it lol. But on the other side every episode also had it's own enganging scene and a lot of banger ost 👍 So this is my impression for every episode : 1. Really slow at first, but overall nice intro 2. AMONG US 3. That ending is cherry on top 4. Honestly, I have a high expectation, but it's really really really long bruh T_T even I can't count how many time I doze off while reading this episode, maybe the issue is not duration but I feel like the flashback is feels boring. Besides that, there is many really good moments ngl. I think it's a lot better with 07th mod or umineko project, yeah I think the mangagamer sprite is kinda odd, and then there is A LOT of screaming in this vn, but the va is goated. Man.. this is longest review I've made and the story itself somehow made me tired so I think I'll take a break from vn. But to continue the story I need…

What a journey, Umineko is a fantastic VN while I do find EP1/EP2 to be quite tedious, EP3/EP4 are truly amazing pieces of work that build off the groundworks from the previous 2 EPs. 100% worth the read, especially for that beautiful ending. Can't wait to play Answer Arcs. EP1 - 7/10 EP2 - 7.5/10 EP3 - 8.5/10 EP4 - 9.7/10
