Arches really shows the weakest part of Echos team, that being the constant filler and reusing the same dialogue over and over. Arches is to me the weakest entry in Echos list of VNs even with the strong start the story had.
I'm sure they will knock it out, maybe just in a slow part of the story. I just hate the dialogue, love the characters for the most part. They seem better flushed out emotionally.
