[20:29] Break Miyama: So yes. School Days is normally quite the lighthearted game.

[20:30] Break Miyama: But the bad endings.....oh, dear god.

[20:30] Auphamim: ...?

[20:30] Break Miyama: I saw two of the three.

[20:30] Break Miyama: In one, the girl not chosen jumps off a building out of misery.

[20:31] Break Miyama: I can still remember it quite vividly - she had this almost forced smile on her face as she fell.....and the animation stopped when her head was literally an inch from the pavement.

[20:31] Break Miyama: The tension was absolutely devastating.

[20:32] Break Miyama: .....after a few seconds, her head explodes in a sickening squelch as it impacts the pavement.

[20:32] Break Miyama: And like a lamb to the slaughter, I watched the second bad ending.

[20:33] Break Miyama: The girl who committed suicide in the first ending ended up killing the girlfriend of the protagonist with a saw to the neck.

[20:33] Break Miyama: In public.

[20:33] Break Miyama: With the guy right next to her.

[20:34] Break Miyama: Again, the tension was horrible - it stops right before the moment of truth, and the saw seems to disappear.

[20:34] Break Miyama: Cue shot of the neck. Her scarf is torn. Then a red line slowly appears across her throat.

[20:34] Break Miyama: Zoom out. Blood sprays. She's dead.

[20:35] Break Miyama: There's literally nothing that shocking or violent in anywhere else in the game. It would normally be something I could handle.

[20:35] Break Miyama: But that juxtaposition, that horrible tension, was what got me. It literally kept me up - I couldn't sleep.

[20:35] Break Miyama: Childish, yes. But that was how it went.

[20:36] Auphamim: Break, in a few minutes you just made me love my girlfriend more than I had ever done so before, ruin my mood by making me attached to her the rest of my life, make me wish to throw up, and just... overall make me feel as awkward as I could ever feel in my whole life.

[20:36] Break Miyama: I apologize.

[20:36] Break Miyama: But seriously.

[20:36] Auphamim: Do not.

[20:37] Auphamim: ...

[20:37] Auphamim: At any rate...

[20:37] Auphamim: ...what's the third ending?

[20:37] Break Miyama: It had impact, perhaps for the most stupid of reasons.

[20:37] Break Miyama: The guy gets killed. Knife to the heart by his girlfriend.

[20:37] Auphamim: ...ah.

[20:37] Break Miyama: Didn't watch it. I couldn't bear to.

[20:37] Break Miyama: I literally cleared my history, cache, and cookies after watching all that.

[20:38] Break Miyama: It was that impacting to me.

[20:38] Auphamim: I can believe it, my nerves are wrecked now.

[20:38] Break Miyama: They're on Youtube.

[20:38] Auphamim: Hell, I wish to throw up... I pic--...

[20:38] Break Miyama: Search "School Days" bad ending or something.

[20:38] Break Miyama: Hm?

[20:38] Auphamim: ...

[20:38] Auphamim: I hate you.

[20:38] Auphamim: Now I'll have to see them...

[20:39] Auphamim: Or feel my heart falls apart slowly, picturing that happening to my own girlfriend.

[20:39] Break Miyama: Don't say I didn't warn you. =/
