Yea from what I've read it sounded brutal. There we're some interesting ideas for H-scenes I've read though.
Interesting, indeed.

Didn't Hanako's beta route have her committing suicide after you had sex with her?

I believe it was something like that, yeah.

Thank goodness someone apparently stepped in and realized "Nobodies gonna want to play this depressing mess!"

I'd have played it...You know the saying, curiosity killed the Hanako.
<KeiichiO>: "I wonder what Misha's WAHAHA's sound like with a cock stuffed down her throat..."
<Ascension>: "I laughed, cried, vomited in my mouth a little, and even had time for marshmallows afterwards. Well played, Xanatos. Well played."

I'm not sure if laughing at this means I'm going to Hell or not...

See ya there. :P

I imagine in the beta route, Hanako was actually raped instead of delusional idiots just thinking she was...

Can one still get their hands on the beta?
A good writer knows his limits. A great writer finds ways around them.

I don't think it was ever actually put into the game, only written and rejected. You can, however, get hold of grid1, which is essentially the alpha version of the game.

Just so you know, usually when direct talk about the beta route comes up, the topic gets shut down. The devs don't much care for people discussing the leaked script.

Granted, most of the people here discussing it don't seem to have actually read it and lots of the information about characters dying was actually discussed on the forums prior to the leak, so it might still stand, but I just wanted to give everybody a heads up. I'm not quite sure where exactly they draw the line.

Ah. To be safe, I guess we should all just shut up now.

...Anyone else here think that Misha's H-scene was more awkward than the track shed?

And its completely spoiled the notion of 'comforting' someone in the game.

True, but to be fair I don't think anyone didn't know what they were getting when they selected the option. I mean she literally just kissed Hisao right beforehand.
I am bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There is no one I would rather be than me.

I feel like there should've been another word in the place of [Comfort Misha] (and Misha's plea right before the decision point), but since KS doesn't go explicitly into saying "Please have sex with me," it's just going to have to do. I don't mind that much, it only means we had to have paid attention to the context.

Actually my point is Its totally spoiled the use of the word in the story. For example, I can't write a scene in a fic where Hisao thinks about how much he wants to comfort a crying Hanako without hearing imagined snickers from the reader.
