Vague Echo spoilers for TJ's route

When I started playing Echo, part of my reason was a youtuber's recommendation, and I remembered her saying that the ending of Flynn's route was so emotionally devastating for the writer that they had to go on break and leave the last two routes for someone else to write. So I decided to save that one for last, and instead started with TJ's route, because he's small and cute and innocent.

As it turns out, because it took me so long to finally play Echo, I had misremembered what she said. It wasn't Flynn's ending that emotionally devastated the writer. It was TJ's. And. Um. God damn.

#original #echo vn #today i learned that echo has a theme of psychological horror #was poking around the wiki after finishing TJ's route like “god damn are all the routes like this?”#noticed that indeed the last 2 routes were written by a different writer. but that Flynn's route was one of the last 2 #the 3rd route to be written? TJ's. of course #blundered into possibly the heaviest route with the worst ending because “hehe cute innocent catboy”#going with carl next. here's hoping no one dies #oh yeah my prediction was probably wrong btw. looks like it was TJ leaving the notes? judging by the drawing?#or maybe it WAS a ghost. who knows #also the thing with janice just didn't go anywhere. weird. probably more important in some other route #also wtf was with the tarantulas? they kept showing up but never did anything or connected to anything? probably something symbolic
