The Fruit of Grisaia

[h1] 这运营是真有毛病，上传截图第二天就被社区永久封禁，理由是“用了盗版软件”，没有中文才打的汉化补丁好不好 [/h1] 大概十年前看了灰色三部曲的动画，一直想推游戏，最近刚好有空就打了。 强烈建议大家以由美子线——幸线——莳菜线——满线——天音线的顺序游玩，这也是我个人觉得个人线从最无聊到最有趣的顺序。 虽然共通线和日常有点催眠，但是除了由美子反抗神人生物爹的个人线比较抽象之外其他线都非常棒，特别是天音线和满线。 虽然知道剧情，但是天音线的荒野求生回忆的沉浸感还是夯到推的时候浑身起鸡皮疙瘩，晚上做噩梦的水平。 每一条线雄二都不是很自大的想去拯救少女，而是告诉少女获救的方法，让少女选择，这就是所谓的授人以渔吧。 虽然大家调侃兵王，但是雄二有几个结局都是非死即残，和朝雾海斗这种从二十几楼跳下来毫发无损的真兵王比不了，说到海斗也推荐喜欢这种类型游戏的大家可以玩下《晓之护卫》，日常非常有趣但衣笠老贼老喜欢烂尾。 PS：最喜欢一姬！！！

I’m about fifteen hours into the game. I never judge a visual novel by its cover, and I always try to finish at least one route before forming an opinion. However, The Fruit of Grisaia is so frustratingly tedious and superficial that I feel like I’m already giving it more credit than it deserves just by sticking with it. First off, the protagonist is a mess. His background hints at him being some kind of former soldier, and he’s incredibly erudite and painfully blunt. On paper, that sounds like a strong character foundation. In practice, though, the moment Yuuji opens his mouth, it becomes unbelievably cringeworthy and exhausting to read. He’ll launch into a massive wall of text just because one of the girls seems slightly down. And that would be fine if those monologues had even a sliver of charm, wit, or meaningful character development. Instead, they’re just a barrage of bizarre assumptions, edgy references to his military past, and long-winded nonsense directed at whichever heroine happens to be nearby. Michiru: *feels down* Yuuji: “You have dysentery, maggot! Let me examine your bowel right this instant! Huh? What do you mean you’re not sick? Then you must have a parasite in your brain!” That’s not witty or quirky... It’s just insufferable. And it becomes even more grating when the same gag is repeated over and over (specifically at Michiru's expense). It doesn’t help that some of the heroines are just as irritating. Combine Yuuji’s pseudo-intellectual rambling and failed dry humor with Michiru’s constant word-tripping and exaggerated stupidity. Or Makina's shtick about copying other people and just basically being a child. Too often have I found myself rolling my eyes when I heard another "banter" of Michiru/Makina/Yujii because their interaction feels like another repetitive gimmick stretched far beyond its comedic lifespan. The result is a cast dynamic that leans heavily on one-note quirks rather than meaningful interaction or character development. On top of that, these slice-of-life, sitcom wannabe scenes are painfully boring and contribute almost nothing to the overarching plot. Im serious. You could skip an hour or two of dialogue and still land at the exact same narrative point. I appreciate a good slow burn. I really do. But you have to give me something in return—engaging banter, character dynamics, or at least charming mischief situations. Why did Little Busters work for me with its slice-of-life scenes, and this did not? There has to be something that makes the journey worthwhile. I’m still holding out hope that the character routes will elevate the experience. But so far, it’s been a slog.

Still the best thing I've ever experienced in any genre in any medium, Actually life changing

The Fruit of Grisaia is over 15 Years old, but it aged super well. Great Humor and Characters, stunning visuals and an overall great story which sometimes gets really emotional. The game does a great job in knowing when it's okay to be silly, and when it should be serious, and always find the right words in its emotional moments. It's not perfect there are some issues like the Route of Makina and especially Amanes have Pacing issues, and I didn't like the Ending of Amanes Route especially in the Context of the second game the labyrinth of grisaia. And I found most of the H-Scenes really unappealing especially Makinas, the only ones that didn't fall into that category were the ones with Yumiko. But asides from that, you absolutely don't do anything wrong with the Fruit of Grisaia. The playtime can potentially turn some people off but im reading like a snail so ignore that also there is idle time in it where I just listened to the music or thought about some things that happend in the story or specific parts of the dialogue. I can recommend it, when you're looking for a well written VN, that has some issues, but is overall absolutely worth your time and money. And in case you're a Steam Deck User reading this, the game doesn't work in Game Mode, there are way to many issues, starting the game in the Desktop Mode fixes this.

“I can fix her”, but the protagonist actually can. Personally I feel some routes needed more editing; it is a bit long winded where it doesn’t need to be at times, and then way too hasty when it could have taken its time otherwise. Still, the writers for this are clearly competent. They know best when to leave things unsaid, and they portray these broken people very well and in a very human way. The foreshadowing is masterful, and small details do add up. Yet this story takes some decidedly surreal turns at points. Very grandiose, borderline magical things happen in an otherwise pretty grounded setting. Basically every route has some sort of moment where your ability to suspend disbelief is pushed, to say the least. Overall it’s a good experience. Some routes were disappointing, some routes were great. What I can say is the characters are wonderful and I can see why this story received a sequel.

After finally finishing one characters route (Michiru) I can confidently say this is my favourite visual novel. I am now hollow and totally alone after finishing it. When is she going to crawl through the monitor and comfort me?

You thought you'd be getting another stupid romance highschool lore, BUT NO YOU GET 4 DEPRESSED GIRL and a cigarrete after s3x kinda thing

共通线还是太牢了，天音线和幸线不错

Nothing outstanding, honestly, except the bizarre situation you're in. Too much slice-of-life content for me, you literally read through many-many hours of "kids go to school" without any choices. Still recommend it though, since once you go through many hours of nothing ever happens, something interesting finally happens. Ignore play hours, sometimes out of boredom I collapse the game window & do other things.

补票党路过，，刚接触这部作品时，我以为它只是部人剧情俗套的后宫卖肉作，但玩到后面才发现实际并非如此，它打破了传统的“美少女游戏”套路，用“真实系硬核”的手法刻画深埋在每位角色或多或少的奇怪言行举止背后所经历的创伤事件及对人性阴暗面的探讨，例如在天音（游戏里的女主角之一）经历的创伤事件背后涉及的议题：为了活下来，人可以做到什么地步？ 它没有给出非黑即白的道德审判，而是让角色背负着无法愈合的伤口继续前行。这种对“灰色地带”的深入探索，让整部作品脱离了虚拟娱乐的轻浮感，看完让我久久不能释怀，尤其在推完天音线的“校车坠崖事件”和通关莳菜线的两个结局时[spoiler] 说实话莳菜线的true end结局也不是很能让人释怀，没看攻略纯凭自己的想法选的 ，结果莳菜线先进的bad end,看完be直接给我整emo了好一阵子(┬_┬) [/spoiler] 这两条线是所有人物线里给我印象最深刻也是通关后后劲最为强烈的两条线。本作前期故意花了大量篇幅描绘日常并埋下了许多伏笔，这么做的好处是在前期埋下的伏笔能在中后期揭晓残酷真相时一口气收回，形成集中爆发，将剧情推向高潮，给人极其强烈且深刻的印象，但缺点也很明显，就是前期的日常部分有些许无聊，和石头门类似，都属于慢热型作品，但是在我看来瑕不掩瑜，它在我心目中依旧是十分优秀的一部galgame
