2- The emotional whiplash of thinking everything is ok months later, suddenly Devon is alone and Cam DEAD, to lol just a dream had me FUCKED. UP. ECHO PROJECT NOT COOL (jk was well written had me believing and in tears for that moment.)
3- HUSBAND!!! legit screamed when I read that.
Lastly, my favourite line: ...it doesn't matter, it isn't worth figuring out, and that I need to focus on us. -Devon
Arches fucked me up more than anything else from Echo Project did. Most likely from the story's relevance to me. Honestly? If someone asked me, I would be tempted to say don't play it. It's the best thing Echo Project has written but it's fucked. I had warnings for the other games echo project has but the other games did not hit me as hard as this.
Overall 10/10 story with an almost unbearably realistic ending, considering everything that happened throughout the story and everything is written, the experience the characters felt were real, but everything else? That's for you to decide and the writers certainly did their job to make it seem either way.
(Also i say this is "the best thing produced by echo project" but its easier to perfect something short rather than their longer projects! The team does great.)
I didn't cry, but i will randomly think of this story and the bittersweet arch shaped place it has in my mind.
Is this story actually finished? I'm halfway through Echo now (Carl and Flynn done, working on Tobias now) and I was intrigued by Flynn's end credits peek at Arches.
Searching about online sa yes it's done but here and some other places says it's not done/ongoing, what's the deal? 😕
holy shit just played through it, such a rollercoaster of emotions. great vn overall, art, writing and etc., my only real criticism being the lack of player input/choices, but i'm fine with that. i just wonder how it would be if maybe in some parts you had to make a choice, and depending on it, something really bad happens, kinda like the train part in echo, specifically leo's route. but again, i don't mind the lack of player input and really enjoyed this vn, keep it up guys

Its completely finished. They want to do a typo check and minor dialog edits iirc but its very much in a finished state.
Thanks for the clarification! 😌 I've added it to the cue!
I'm still chugging away at Echo and plan to do Route 65 next (once I figure out how to force it to work on Android, S23 Ultra here), then Arches.
That should keep me occupied for a while 🤣
I know TJ's route might not be cannon but if it were... 😬😬😬
This game made me fully ugly cry, 10/10.
Isn't supposed to have a new update today?
