Bought and played Exstia 4.
The story this time is mostly focused on Chiaki's (4's cover character) relationship with Kanon (3's cover character). I believe people who are also fans of Yuri-genre here will enjoy the game. I find that the quality of the CG has improved, but maybe it's just me getting used to the art style... The game has a proper end here, but I strongly believe there will be more entries for Concerto (Maybe one focusing on the Prof/Teacher), here's hoping the sales were good..!
Story spoilers and more personal thoughts here
This time there is only 1 corruption end, and couple of bad ends (one of which involves all main leads from Concert 1-4). In the story, the villain exploits Chiaki's insecurities regarding her secret/hidden affection for Kanon; Chiaki's affection towards Kanon will be revealed and the corruption route starts when Kanon chooses to not take Chiaki's affection seriously. The villain talks to Chiaki (in a way similar to inner angel/demon troupe), constantly trying to tempt her.
As for the corruption, the villain is defeated but she transfers all her energy(?) to Chiaki, which in the game's terms, curses her to change to the corruption form and make her compelled to destroy the world. The very last scene is Chiaki and Kanon merging with each other. While as a whole I felt the story was written nicely, and the characters are likeable, the corruption itself felt kinda flat...
