youre not missing out desu. The writing gets praised so heavily because its a VN and the complete absense of gameplay means its writing can be the closest equivalent to a straight up book, and midwits think that the closer something is to a book the better the writing must be by default.
In reality the writing is a fucking mess. The game had too many writers so the pacing is fucked by random npcs/encounters having a fuckhuge dialogue tree that doesnt really say much and mainly exists for the writer behind it to self fellate themselves ala a sentence expansion game. The game is also trying to do 3 things: a political intrigue plotling (where the majority of the shitposting for it comes from), a detective plotline, and a redemption plotline for the main character. But all 3 of these plots fight for space with one another and it fucks the whole thing up. Its also blatently obvious the devs just wanted to have a game where they talk about politics the entire time but knew it wouldnt sell, hence the half assed detective schtick it has going when the mystery element is weak as fuck and has an out of nowhere twist conclusion.
