About
Note: This game is a remake of the 2015 visual novel The Way We All Go by ebi-hime. This remake contains entirely new character sprites and backgrounds, over forty new event CGs, and an entirely new soundtrack. The game has also been remastered in 1080p. There is one new route and several bonus extra scenes to unlock which were not present in the original visual novel.

The year is 1980, and it's been two years since Atsushi, affectionately nicknamed as Atcchan, left his hometown: a small village deep in the Japanese countryside. Now, after all of this time, he is returning for a scant three days during the summer, which will be spent with his grandparents.
During these two years, Atcchan failed to keep in contact with his two childhood friends: the shy artist Noelle and the cheerful tomboy Amu. Will he be able to reconnect with his old friends, or will his brief stay in the countryside result in tragedy?
That is up for the player to decide, in this heavily branching horror/romance visual novel with over 20 different endings. Whether Atcchan will be able to reconcile with his friends is entirely up to you.

I played the original in 2015. When I read there would be a remake, I knew I had to play it! I completed it in about 25 hours. I really liked the new character!
The new art and music in this remake is really nice. It was nice to revisit these characters after playing the old version. I think I'm more sympathetic to the characters this time around (especially Noelle), not because of a change in writing, but because I had time to think about the reflect on the story between the original and the remake. I got used to them in my head, I guess. I think the added endings, with the new character, gave me an unhappier final impression than the Comiket ending, which used to be the last one you would get. It's a nice ending that doesn't focus on any of the three main girls, focusing more on Paya, but they all get along. Now the fox ending is the last one you'll get. It also has basically an equal balance on all three girls, but you have to mistreat Noelle a little to get it. I had to reckon with the fact that I've gotten so many bad endings because I've favored Amu over Noelle, or because I wanted 100% completion. Noelle forgives Atcchan, because she does, but I'm not sure if he really deserves it anymore. I made Atcchan do bad things in this VN that sometimes feels more like a puzzle than a story, pulling little levers that please or offend the characters, and in the new endings, they're all canon to that. It's like it's my fault that Noelle has suffered so much. I was complicit in the horrors. I think the new endings really suit the VN. Oh, and the fragments (stories you unlock after getting endings), were short, fun little segments. They're just that, fluff. I do appreciate added references to other ebi-hime VNs in the remake, but that's because I'm a sucker for those kinds of things. The references are fanservice that don't really add to the story, so you don't have to try to read as many has her VNs as possible to appreciate The Way We All Go. It's nice, though.

Amazing visual novel, Ever since I played the original the way we all go its been my favourite visual novel so when the remake released I immediately had to get it. The remake is just as good as the original and improves on a lot of parts of the original. The story is amazing and all the endings and amazing. I 10000% recommend
So after 23 hours and also 23 endings i will write my review, to put it short: Community is nice and also ebihimes who is the dev of it, the game itself is worth the money and at the same level as doki doki literature club in my eyes, everyone who play the game will have a different experience what is a very good thing, you not only have one character to focus on what is also a good thing, psycho horror is available but not absolutely forced so there are many endings without it. Longer version: I personally played the demo version first what is also a plus point of the game because you can clearly know then that you want to buy it or not, then i played the full version and my first ending was Noelles romance ending (i heard that almost or likely no one got this ending as his first one), from that point on i knew that the game is worth playing and i also knew that you are able to focus youself on the character you like the most, i joined a bit later ebihimes discord server to ask questions and stuff what was a really good choice because ebihimes also answer you questions and give you tips even when he is the dev, the community is also nice and almost always help you or answer you with the time, and as the time passed i also got more and more endings until i got to this point now, so yeah i would say that this game is worth buying it.
I am aware this visual novel isn't very popular. But it resonated with ME incredibly well. One thing I think this visual novel does much better than most others is explaining the reasons behind why the characters act the way they do and those reasons being understandable even if they're not necessarily justified. With enough/the right routes done you get clear pictures of who Atsushi, Amu, and Noelle are, why they are the way they are, and how their friendships developed. None of them are cardboard stereotypes. Noelle infamously snaps on many routes, but with the context of her backstory in her good endings, you can see why it happened even if her response is obviously disproportionate. And even the backstory gives her legitimate reason to be angry with Atcchan. They're all flawed, and those flaws are neither glorified nor condemned. Amu's probably the most well-off character in the novel, but she isn't perfect or a flat archetype either. My only real issue here was that I didn't like Eri, but that's more due to me just not liking the archetype rather than a problem with her specifically. YMMV, but the emotional themes really got to me too, especially Noelle's. I got all the endings, and the first one was the Noelle romance route.
The Way We All Go is a very enjoyable VN with a lot of choices, endings and many interesting characters. I have done multiple playthroughs and something I really appreciated is the big changes that small choices can bring, making it easily replayable with multiple different scenarios. Searching for the various endings is also fun because each one gives you a new view of the characters, letting you see their different sides. I've already read many of ebi-hime's works, and just like the others, the writing is really good. The VN also has great art and music
Отличная новелла с разветвленным сюжетом и хорошо прописанными персонажами.
