I've never left a review on this game before but I would like to. I discovered Our Life: Beginnings & Always during the pandemic. It was then, that I genuinely fell in love with this game. Throughout the many playthroughs of this game since the start of 2021, I knew I was in deep and that I would never be the same. It's funny how true those words are and how they continue to resonate with me to this day. While I was going through my own gender identity crisis, Our Life: Beginnings & Always was always there for me. I was genuinely having my own crisis through my main character and that was so perfect. It was as if everything clicked; I was able to style my main character how I've wanted to look in real life and it was a breath of fresh air. Our Life: Beginnings & Always has taught me so much; that even if you're afraid of new changes, if you're scared to fall, there will always be a support system behind you. So whether that's a group of friends, music, or a visual novel, it is such a beautiful and wonderful game. I am proud to say that it's been a tradition of my mine playing it every summer since 2021; been going 4 years strong, I would love to keep it up. Thank you GBPatch, you're a wonderful team and I'm glad I was able to discover this game in my time of need. It was like you were purposely looking for me but I wouldn't have it any other way. This is such a beautiful story to play and I do hope that any newcomers can share the same amount of joy and love that I have for this visual novel.
