So here's a video on a game that quickly became one of my favorites. This game doesn't technically have bosses, unless you count the fights with Sejima. However the somniums are the big gameplay sections of these games so I really wanted to make a video, and you bet I'll be doing one for Nirvana Initiative.

This game is structured to have multiple routes with branching paths. While some routes Have locks on them have you find more information I opted to just show the somniums in a simple order going from the start of the route to the end and going usually going left to right on the flow chart. So the order of the routes in this video is Ota, Annihilation, Mizuki, Iris, and Resolution.
Also the somniums with branches are significantly different depending on which story branch you choose so they will be labeled.

Tutorial:
00:02 Date (Tutorial)

Red/Ota Route: The generic normal route the game tries to branch you off of at every turn. Likely the first ending you'll get
18:11 Mizuki (Red)
28:41 Iris (Red)
40:54 Ota (Red)
50:40 Mayumi

Green/Annihilation Route: Branches off from the red route and holds what is widely considered the games worst ending. Contains a story lock
1:06:56 Iris (Annihilation)
1:17:33 #89
1:30:09 "Boss"

Yellow/Mizuki Route: Branches off from red route considered to be the second best ending as its one of only two where you take out the main antagonist. It focuses on the best character in the game and would be my favorite route but unfortuanately only has one unique somnium due to how late the branch happens but it's also my favorite Somnium.
1:53:57 Ota (Yellow)
2:02:58 So Sejima Battle
2:11:20 Date (Yellow)

Blue/Iris Route: the alternate starting branch. This route is the sad ending route but it holds the branch for the true ending.
2:31:42 Mizuki (Blue)
2:46:46 So Sejima
2:48:24 Iris (Blue)
3:21:58 Iris (Final)

Peach/Resolution Route: The true ending route that branches off of the Blue Route. Has two story locks.
3:39:10 Iris (Resolution)
3:53:52 Hitomi
4:05:47 etaD
4:18:11 Vs Saito Sejima

Normally I include the ending for these sorts of videos but this games ending is one you play and it's like 2 hours long so I'll just end it at this spot.

While not quite in line with my usual videos this game is a masterpiece that I absolutely adore and wanted to make a big video for it.
