Eliza is a straightforward story-based video games that's actually not bad written. It is remarkable that they choose a relevant topic to discuss, and explore it smartly. This game is an obvious upvote for me. I should add that for me personally the story didn't feel especially compeling, just good enough, so I could say rationally that it is ok but it didn't move me. I think that's not anyone's fault, as I am usually pondering about similar subjects. We need more games like this one.

This game asks soul-wrenching questions about technology and how it can help deal with pain in the world. This sounds generic on paper, but it's hard to get across how mature and thought-provoking the approach it takes is. Make sure to approach this story with as much of an open mind as possible.

Most choices don't matter (except the last one deciding the ending). This story gives you a lot to think about, even more these days were AI like ChatGPT, Bard, Llama, Gemini and other are getting more and more traction. Clearly a good read...

I think this game was definitely prescient for the time it was created. It really hits a lot of good points about AI, technology, and has great characters. Having worked in a tech company, I feel the vibes of a lot of it are spot on. I think it's worth playing, so I would recommend it, but I think for me there's a lot of negatives: there's almost no actual variations to choose and a lot of times you have to click when there's only one option, so I didn't feel a lot of agency, and the ending is really based just on a final choice in the game. For me, as a VN lover, this made it feel a lot less like anything I did actually mattered. I still enjoyed the game due to the interesting characters and writing and would suggest it for most people who like VNs.

"Eliza" is a very interesting visual novel that explores the themes of AI, its morality and integration into society. What I really loved about this game is how it presents you with a set of characters, each with different views towards AI and technological advancement, but it never tries to imply who is right and who is wrong. This games makes you think, but it doesn't tell you what to think. Instead, it makes you consider different points of view. Also, the art style of this game is very unique and charming! Overall, I really enjoyed playing this
