Well, it's almost been a month and I've finally finished it. In reality it was just about 40-50 hours of gameplay but it's not something you finish in one quick go.

I'd certainly recommend it to anyone who takes an interest in the Visual Novel genre, or to anyone who watched and liked the Clannad Anime. The storyline, especially After Story's, is exceptional, and I dare say my absolute favorite across all genres to date, period.

Now I'm going on to Tomoyo After: ~It's a Wonderful Life~. I've already spoiled the ending for myself, sadly, but at the very least it got me psyched to play the game and experience it for myself. There's no English patch for the all-age-approved-version, as far as I'm aware, which is a shame, but I suppose I'll just play through the 18+ version. Erogé, for me, is a downside, not an upside, but I'll be darned if I let it ruin what seems to be an amazing storyline.
