Great things about Umineko to me:
- Riddle game like feeling in arc 1-2-3-4 was really a lot of fun... make that arc 5 too.
- Characters are amazing. Character creation is Ryuukishi's real skill imo.
- Music is not only the best I've heard of any VN it's also used in a much much better way then any other VNs I've played.
- Red truth vs Blue truth was a really fun idea IMO.

Complaints are mostly minor but here's two.
- Twisting of the red truth left open too many interpretations of pretty much anything.
- Ryuukishi's artwork is something I understand being ... well not on the quality of a non-doujin VN like Fate or Kanon, but nontheless I cannot help but look down on his background editing skills. Better then in Higurashi at least but still... I'd be hoping for a When They Cry 5 that he hires a background artist or something.
