[QUOTE=Doomish;39612883]i don't get why people ask this so often
just because the thing is a year old doesn't mean suddenly all discussion must cease[/QUOTE]If I remember correctly, about 4-6 months after the thing was released, people started complaining about how there was nothing to talk about and that the same things were being discussed over and over - and a mod even stated that the current thread at the time would be the last.
I wanna do Rin's route but I always feel bad letting the other girls just fade into background characters
fuck you Katawa Shoujo, making me feel bad about lines of code that don't actually have emotions

Yeah, that's pretty much what happens sans a few appearances from Emi and occasionally Shizune.
You won't mind it though, Rin's, eh... A very [I]unique[/I] person.

This will have been asked a million times
But, story-wise, who is the best girl to pick?

Lilly -> Hanako ->Rin ->Shizune -> Emi -> Kenji

This is purely subjective
However, if you're a white knight, Hanako is perfect for you.
4ls should make another VN like katawa shoujo
Doesn't have to be about cripples, just something along the same lines. Something that makes you feel.
I would never pick Rin in a thousand years

Shizune has a single choice to make, in Emi's only one choice matters. Lily and Hanako's route have a more dynamic system where choices matter and I don't know what to say about Rin's.
So story wise Lily and Hanako's routes feel like your more of a part of the story if that answers your question.
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that you could actually die in this game even if you didn't pick a roof-drinking session with Kenji
Apparently Lily pushes you into a car by accident or something

I would love to hear more
I'd hate to end up at a gruesome death because I half-assedly did something wrong

there should've been a Rika route in which she calls Hisao out on all his bullshit and self-pity and basically gets him to man the fuck up, only to reject him when he tries to take it to the next level because he's still a clueless moron

Kind of cliche'd. Then again so was Lilly's route, but it was an enjoyable read nontheless.

the only ending should've just been hisao falling off the roof and dying
the rest of the game [sp]revolves around you as mutou tracking who did it, playing detective and eventually finding kenji being the head of an underground cult ala project mayhem in fight club[/sp]
i now wish ks had been more like that
So i completed my first Arc and i was trying to get Lily because shit she was the hottest to me and i ended up on Emi's Arc and well... the feels fuck.

Almost everyone stumbles into Emi's arc because it makes sense that Hisao would at least attempt to try and improve his health, y'know, what with the fucking HEART CONDITION and everything.
Nope, apparently four times out of five Hisao will completely disregard the ticking time bomb in his chest just so he can run off and make equally poor decisions with a bunch of crippled teenage girls.

In all fairness, he does end up doing alot of walking in most (but not all) of those other arcs.
[sp]I'm just curious as to why his heart condition doesn't become much of an issue in Shizune's arc. Everyone else he has a little SOMETHING go on with his heart when he flagoogity's their gashmoygens, but not with Shizune, except one time. Passionate sex? Yup the ol' ticker can take that in stride no problems. But throwing a wiffle ball WHOA SLOW THE FUCK DOWN COWBOY.[/sp]

I guess that's just what happens when you have multiple writers working on the same project (on a team where everyone only knows each other online). I liked KS, but man does the quality vary in each route. It would've definitely benefited had the writers either coordinated better or if it was just one writer.

Could've benefited from a better proof-reader too. I've noticed especially in Rin's arcs there's alot of spelling and sentencing errors.
[sp]That and Shizune doesn't even acknowledge the scar at all. Seriously, just like dating an automaton.[/sp]

[sp]Well, possibly because in Lilly's arc where his heart was the worst, he was doing no exercise and drinking a fair few times. In Hanako's and Rin's he also did no exercise. However, in Shizune's he did kinda spend all day making those festival stalls, which is better than doing nothing at all, I guess.[/sp]

[sp]Like I said, in Lilly's arc he did a fair amount of walking as I recall, not so much in Hanako's, and not-so-much more-so in Rin's. The ol' ticker held up fairly well in the latter two despite this. It's all just writing inconsistency. They probably focused on it more in Lilly's arc because in the good ending that's what it all boils down to, his heart giving out.[/sp]

I bet that wouldn't be that hard to make to be fair. Maybe i'll do that when i finish my programming course.
