Now I haven't read this VN yet, but I need a forewarning.. how emotional would this make me. I hate to say it but im a very emotional/fragile person and get really invested in stories, I just finished Adastra and spent an hour crying about it : |. Without spoiling anything, would I be essentially broken by the end of this VN?

Um, in terms of sadness I think Echo beats adastra by an extreme amount!

I'm a good ways through, and damn there's so much heartbreak.

Yeah! There really is!

Wait until the endings... So sad and bittersweet... Inspired me and many others to create fanfiction endings!

Don't play this game, realy, not yet.

You can't compare those two games if we are talking about emotions, it's completely different level of sadness

Don't get me wrong, this is the best VN I have played so far (only Arches can compare in my opinion, which is sequel to Echo ironically) and I fully recomend you play this but if you are too emotional... it would be wise to stay away. 

Okay, I really like the author's work, would any of their other VNs be a little more manageable?

Well... there is not many games tbh: 

Adastra - released + you have played it

The Smoke Room - Echo's prequel + in development, great game but there is a lot of sex scenes, like... a LOT. Despite that I would recomend it to you, it expands and explains a few Echo events, also game is not yet in a place where it would rapes emotionally someone so it would be smart to play it first.

Khemia / Interea - Adastra sequel / Amicus's honeymoon + both in development. If you haven't check them out then you know what to do:)

Arches - Echo's sequel + in development. Tbh, if you are REALY willing to try Echo and you are not sure if you are ready then you could play this game, it is very emotional, also scary, but it won't change your head like Echo would. I mean this game is just frigin sad, when Echo literally affect you 

(it all sounds scary and I know that, I am fragile too and i didn't give a s*** about creators note up there about how this game is emotionall and I ended up ... well ... Im trying to be better person... because of game... lil phatetic of me. Im writting this directly to you, because it is obvious that on everyone it affect diferently, but if you are sensitive then I m gonna say that this's one of those games where creators are not kidding about how strong game is)

PS:  sry for my English (its not my language), I hope all of this makes sense :)

thank you so much for helping me like this, and it made complete sense. I'll try The Smoke Room first and then see if I can move onto the others. I've already played through the first update of Interea and I thought it was meant to be updated yesterday but im not sure. Yet again im so thankful for your help : )

Yo, btw, if it is not a problem, do let me/us know if you will or no play Echo itself.

I am kinda curious if you would like it <3

I'm just going through The Smoke Room, I'm not that far into the game, but I am enjoying it so far, it is a tad scary but I feel like it will pick up.  Depending on how much it'll go up in intensity will decide if i play Echo, and i'll let you know if i play it and get traumatised or not : )

w-well... so I' ve been wandering if you ehm.. you know...

played Echo yet o-o-oor *cough* or you won't
