abyuse - Echo

I miss playing Echo and honestly, I will go through it again with someone who hasn't played it yet (cough cough @Zachlauz cough cough)

yeah true

Holy yap bro

Started Route 65 and immediately remembering how little choice amounts Adastra had compared to the Echo routes cause goddamn I'm 20 minutes in and have been given 3 decisions already with numerous choices 💀

Finished Adastra and I just feel hollowed out. Fucking hell

Now that I've finished Arches, I really wanna move onto Adastra but know damn well that Route 65 is just waiting for me in the corner to be played as I try to move past it 😭

Might play it last tbh lol

Finished the side story "Benefits" and uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh O///O

Was thinking about playing Route 65 next but to be honest, I have more interest in exploring Arches instead of working further in the past. Gonna play Arches when I get the chance and then Route 65 ^^

Finished the side-stories and they really add such more character moments and depth to a game filled to the brim with lore that I find really fucking dope. "Trip" is my favorite easily >w<

Overall, this game is one of, if not, my favorite thing I've engaged in when it comes to media and storytelling. Each route brings forth something special to them in various ways that'll have you hooked into the story. I feel so connected to each and every character in so many ways and it's truly a game I cherish so fucking much.

I have no idea how I would put the game on a numerical scale, but goddamn, Echo is one of the best out there for sure!

Gonna do the side-stories later on, then that side-story that's its own thing, then play through Route 65, then Arches, and maybe delve into The Smoke Room if I feel the desire to lol. Also wanna check out Adastra, but once I get done with everything the Echo universe has to offer :]

FINISHED JENNA'S ROUTE, THUS COMPLETING THE MAIN GAME!!!!!!! >w<

I got the good ending apparently as it's based off decisions made beforehand that come into play for the ending and I'm so glad as it caps off the game joyously well and is by-far the ending with the best outcome for each character. The way Jenna's route introduces a whole batch of side characters that add SO much to the lore and Jenna's backstory is incredible and I immediately grew attached to them in various ways (Micha O_O).

Anyways, this ending was great and I'm gonna watch Keith Ballard's play-through of the bad ending so I don't have to go back myself >:D

"Near the end" NOPE! I'M JUST STARTING TO GET NEAR THE END (I think). Jenna's route so far has been so fucking intense and I've been loving it in the most stressed meaning of the word imaginable. This route is such a fucking mental exhaust and drops so much depth and lore to everything that makes it feel like the designated finishing route. I really hope this ends satisfyingly and I'm really excited to finally finish this route and be done with the game (not counting the side-stories lol). Planning to play Route 65 after and then Arches.

Near the end of Jenna's route and it's just a fucking nightmare of a ride. The backstory and events shown throughout this route just add so much context to everything and the fact that every route adds more context and backstory to everything to one cohesive timeline of events and details is just so fucking cool to see. Also, this route has one of the scariest moments I've seen in the game and genuinely ruined my sleep last night 😭

Playing the "Runaway" side-story right after having my friend take me to my dad's after feeling unsafe at my mom's and I'm just so fucking beat rn and this is comforting to an extent

One more route to go and then I'm done with Echo! Also gonna do the side stories and Route 65 >:3

Finished Flynn's route and it's definitely my least favorite ending, that's for sure 😭

Been playing it again as of late and I'm on the last day in Flynn's route. The last comment is dumb cause they feel like a group of friends who hung onto each other cause they were like the only queers amidst the sea of gun-crazy rednecks 😭 Anyways, best game ever 10/10

Been playing again recently and I am absolutely obsessed again, but also remembered how lonely this game makes me feel. Like- a group of gays who had wonderful moments together at such a developmental part of their life IN THE MOST PODUNK PLACE EVER OUT OF ALL PLACES!?!?!? Like- goddamn... that salt's burning.

Haven't played in months and I think I wore myself out of it + being busy with shit 24/7 >_<

I still love the game to bits and always will, but I've grown mentally tired X_X

I haven't played the game since my last post. It's not that I've grown apart from the story, but more due to being incredibly busy to where I put a lot of my leisure's on hold, this being one of them. I'm a bit into Flynn's route and I hope to have the time to engulf myself back in the story again.

Been playing Flynn's route for the past 20 minutes and every single line of dialogue has my stomach aching with my face in my hands at these decision-making segments dsygusadi7t6uahsdygi7uadstygiu

Just got an email from my school that I need to return my laptop once I graduate so I now have a time limit to finish this game X_X

I'm on Thursday's chapter in Flynn's route at the moment. I need to finish Flynn's route, Jenna's route, Echo: Route 65, Arches, the short stories, and other shit before June T^T

Watching Keith Ballard's Echo playthroughs and knowing what happens before they get to those parts in the video adds a layer of excitement, lol >w<

Also gets to see others reactions to parts of the game and refreshes my memory on specific dialogue/scenes.

Flynn's horny af goddamn 😭

Started Flynn's route 4-5 days ago (?) and while I haven't gotten very far, I'm already sunken into what's in-store for this reptilian dickhead >w<

Finished the other endings for Carl's Route and every time I finish a character's route fully, I feel a large sense of accomplishment. 3 characters done, 2 more to go. I'm incredibly excited to start Flynn's route once I sit with those endings for a bit longer.

Finished one of the endings for Carl's route just now: holy shit >~<

Out of the all the endings I've gone through so far, it's probably the one to hit me the least emotionally, but it still left a mark, goddamn T^T

As I said before, this is just abyuse's contributions to the game. Full OST here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLhkBwM4jB88rkMjj9v2ZGYHkDA5ZfWN80

Picked up the game again today since I finished all my work + being incredibly sick with nothing to do. I just started Friday on Carl's route and I'm enjoying it a lot ^^ Definitely a different tone as this plays out like a laid-back horror rather and a "gonna fuck you up for the next few weeks" traumatic psycho horror drama.

Echo more like uhhhh no

how long is this in full?

Big fuckin yap sesh from DREscapePlan. I'm gonna eat this record.

*coughs*

25 comments and it's just me lmao. Anyways, I still think about this game so much, but sadly don't have time for it as of now. I keep thinking about how emotional both TJ & Leo's route made me feel and just thinking about it has me starting to choke up >_<

I haven't touched this game since my last comment. I've been busy with work and don't have the freetime to play it much when I spend my time playing guitar, reading, watching films, and not engaging in this form of self-harm X_X

Once I finish Carl's route, I'll head over to Flynn's route, then Jenna, then complete the side stories, then play "Route 65," THEN play "Arches," and then play "The Smoke Room" and I think that's all the things I need to do to finish this game's story, lol

Started Carl's route yesterday and after going through what may've been the two most emotionally stirring routes in the game, I feel like I'm not gonna like this route because I've heard many time that it's "scooby doo levels" in comparison. Also heard that it has the energy of a gay campy horror and I feel like this route's gonna be a tonal whiplash compared to TJ and Leo. This happens when I started Leo's route so I expect this feeling to go away, but I can't stop thinking about the events of Leo's route when going through Carl's route and I feel like I'm missing out on exploring those DESPITE ALREADY PLAYING THROUGH THEM X_X

Finished Leo's route (one of the endings at least) and I'm just a mess. This game's so fucking good and I recommend anyone interested to try it out!

I’m near the end of Leo’s route and as totally expected, I’m a fucking mess. This game is self-harm 💀

This playlist contains the full OST:

Also this soundtrack only covers Abyuse’s work and doesn’t contain every song off the game’s full list of tracks.

This game fucked me up so much and I just learned that I only did one route (?) and that there's so much more stuff to the game and I just wanna cry so much rn
