Its pretty interesting the back stories for the other characters that isn't shown for the anime, i would give the romantic options a chance you can learn alot.

Maybe. I haven't decided yet. Since the last post, Kyou is seeming less psychotic.

Only real concern, I suppose, is that given the pace...I'm skeptical that I'm going to be willing to play through a second time to see other options. Guess it depends on how independent the story trees are. It's not completely obvious where the important branches are, and I doubt I'm going to want to click through hours worth of story I've already read to find the different branches. I'm also slightly inconvenienced by the fact that I know that Nagisa is the "official" romantic interest, and she's the only way to even get to the entire second half of the game...and it happens that I don't find her attractive, appealing, or interesting...pretty much at all.

I'll probably go through more or less "as me" and do what feels right from moment to moment and see where I end up. If that ends up being a character not developed in the anime, so be it.

Relevant to what I think of whenever the name is mentioned.

I figured that this topic wouldn't be about them, but I was hoping at least one other person would think of them too!

Here's what I though of, by the way

You should ask ToonyMan, it's his favourite game ever.
Why does everybody do this to me.
Cause you populate the anime thread like crazy

So, thread necro.

Like Tellemurious above, I just started playing Clannad again after noticing that I still had it installed from last year. Doing Kyou's arc and it's so far gone as to be painful and with me talking to myself contemplating the karmic consequences of what Tomoya is doing to himself. But after an hour or two of pressing enter, watching him beating himself up over his relationship with Ryou...I'm kind of getting to the point where I'm just ready for it to end.

It's like...to the point where he's so far into the hole that it seems like he may as well just marry Ryou and spend the rest of his life living a lie.

In my own life once I kissed the wrong girl at a New Year's Eve party just because I happened to be dating her even though the girl I really wanted to kiss was sitting right next to me. It's a curious thing, social pressure. I succumbed to it and all these years later I've known it was a "mistake" but it was a mistake that I understand why I made. But I wasn't going to make it again and so I absolutely was going to kiss Kyou in the field...but now I get hours of angst and self-loathing anyway.

Gahhh!!!

Anyway, +1 to the game for being emotionally effective. Though it is starting to drag on with the hours of clicking between meaningful choices and fake choices that have me dating the girl other than the one I chose to kiss.
