Yeah, this game is way too long and boring for a casual player. This is one piece levels of long and i’m not even joking. The pacing is god-awful. Does it look like I care about or want to see Battler try to literally touch his cousins tits in about an HOUR into the game? No! Does it look like I care about what family member sits at what chair in the dining room? No! When do the murders start? When does the supposed boundless-Goku destroying witches show up? Where’s the crap that we all brought this game to see? Please don’t spend 25$ on this. Don’t even get it on a sale.
And yes, I’m not even a pathetic 5 hours into the game yet. But it feels like I’ve been playing for a whole 20 hours. By the time I get to the 10 hour mark (which I won’t because I refunded it) my sanity would have already been thrown out the window, due to how boring everything was leading up to it.

Having finished all four chapters, I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed this game. I read Higurashi first, and while I think Higurashi had a better setting, you can tell that Ryukishi07 improved as a writer going into this series.
There are a few notable flaws - one, the narration has a bad habit of jumping from first person to first person, to third person, back to first person. It's very jarring, and sometimes it's hard to tell which character is actually narrating a scene. Second, there are a few highly inappropriate jokes, but past chapter 2 they tend to stop. Battler would surely get cancelled if he was on social media. Also, the fourth chapter has a couple of characters that didn't get updated character arc, which is quite jarring seeing them next to more "polished" portraits.
That said, this series is a wild ride that I throughly enjoyed. Can't wait to get to the Answer Arcs!

I watched a playthrough of the beginning of Umineko and it hooked me, so I decided to get it for myself. I'm using it to learn Japanese, and the seamless way you can switch between Japanese and English is a huge plus! Great story, great characters, all around a fantastic visual novel.

Man, this game is [b]long[/b], isn't it?
The game is full of mystery until the very end, I kept asking "what the h*** am I reading?" through out the game, which is very expected from a game with "Question" in its title. I really enjoyed the read and had a roller coaster of emotions with this game. Now onto the Answer Arcs!
For anyone wondering, I recommend using 07th MOD patch for the best experience.

Look up Umineko Project and download that. It's the best version of the game that you can't get on Steam.
I can't proclaim it in red, so let me testify in blue
