It's really hard to collect my thoughts and feelings about this game into a concise review and numerical rating, but I'll try. Analogue: A Hate Story contains a great story about cultural abuse, trauma, and a patriarchal society based on an actual time period in Korea's history. I must emphasize that the game contains those things. What it is actually is reading through a ton of notes from the past while intermittently interacting with a couple of characters, one of whom is painfully boring and the other is actually interesting but difficult to interact with. Look, I like what Analogue: A Hate Story is going for, I really do. But it's executed in a way that is so hard to make sense of. It doesn't balance interaction with the characters with figuring what happened on the ship, so one part just feels draining while you're focused on the other. If you are into reading a story about cultural trauma, royalty and familial abuse, play this game. If you are into interacting with AI anime waifu, play this game. If you want an interesting experience that intertwines both of those elements gracefully, look elsewhere.

as someone who got all the endings and read all the logs and hyunae/mute dialogue, this game is a mixed bag. hyunae is a beautifully written character and her struggles are realistic and make you feel for her. the gameplay is unique and fits the sci-fi atmosphere quite nicely. it deals with so many important themes such as patriarchy and the way it affects the small community on the spaceship, dooming them all in the end and causing their downfall. however it is not without its issues, especially considering how flawed every single ending is. it fails to deliever its final message the way this game deserves, throwing it all away to turn it into a dating sim. it feels disappointing after such a compelling story to just end it with dating the ai waifus. the odd homophobia of mute is also interesting, especially the way the game critiques the relationship between hana and oh sojin, who suffered so much only to keep getting disrespected by both ais. I liked that it made sense for mutes character but also the game allowing you to date mute and trying to justify her words feels rather icky. not saying the game is fully homophobic, after all it allows you to date hyunae as both a man and a woman but I dont think the story of oh so-jin got what it deserved. it is not a bad game, just a bit confused on the direction it wants to take. if it just concentrated on the lore and the story it would be amazing but who knows, maybe we can get something like that from the developers in the future

Is like watching a traditional Korean drama, but is set in the future. The story is fictional, but the setting is based on an actual historical period in Korea, which is the Joseon period. It was not a great time for women to say the least, and the story got that part perfectly. You will experience two female perspectives in the game, one represents the modern/contemporary way of thought, and another the traditional/obedient way that women were subjected to in the Joseon period. Is quite a contrast to see the two perspectives, and through each side you will slowly uncover the truth and backstory behind the characters, and eventually all the pieces will connect, and the shocking revelation will leave you speechless. It might not be a best-selling novel, but is certainly a worthy read. Without spoiling anything, like any VN there is a true ending, and is kind like cheating to get it in game(but is totally worth it), please do experience both 'normal' endings before trying the last one, you would feel much better afterwards. The story continues in Hate Plus, and it reads your final save file from this game, so the ending actually 'carries' over to the new game, is a very nice touch by the developer, so get Hate plus if you can for the full experience.

I quite enjoyed the story. I don't have a lot to say about it, except that going through the logs and discussing them with the AIs was a great vehicle to control the flow of information. Quite good.

This game is so weird in every way possible, an unforgettable experience for sure. It's very odd but very fun at the same time.
