Eric thread.
>>343572151
If you haven't yet, I would highly recommend playing the Infinity series, Uchikoshi's other series of VNs. The first two, Never7 and Ever17, suffer from pacing issues due to Uchi trying to balance between his mindfuckery and more traditional romance VN gameplay. I still think they're still great games despite the flaws though. The next one, Remember11, is pure Uchi at his best though. It may be my favorite of his games. I have yet to play 12Riven, his last entry, but I hear it's good as well.

999 confirmed to be ported to other platforms.
Gameplay shown appears to be similar to VLR on Vita (single screen).
>Most likely voice acting.
>Definitely puzzles.
>No confirmation about making the jump to 3D.

What did you do your first time and what did you get, /v/?
>>343576427
you need that quote superimposed over the part where carlos rapes akane
>the snail only triggered the ORDER of events
>with or without the snail chaos would still happen
>with or without it there would have been a first nonary game
>there would still be shifters
>Akane with still be a shifter
>the nuke would still hit
on the contrary:
>without the snail the ending that leads to saving civilization would not occur
>Phi would not exist
>Luna
>Kyle
>Sigma and Diana would not fall in love
>no Delta
>no robot Sean
This, among other things, would not happen without the snail.
Life isn't unfair, if anything, the snail is saving history.
If the theme is being "unfair" how can it? Especially when you have the ability to go through time and save the world? When you're a mind hacker?
There is nothing unfair or fair about coincidence, life is full of coincidences, it's just nature.
I just beat the game. Filled in all the dots. Got all the cheevos except quest files and getting all trophies. Still no epilogues. Did I goof it up?
>>343576529
Accidentally tapped the screen waiting for it to time out followed by repeated "IT WAS JUST A PRANK"
I feel so empty. I didn't hate ZTD, but it felt so mediocre. No real suspense, I didn't like the twists, the character's felt boring. There was no excitement in it. I hate this feeling, this isn't how I felt after finishing the other two at allstill loved Carlos though
>>343576427
I assume she'll sound like VLR Clover if they get her ENG VA back.

shot sigma in the head, RIP
>>343575398
The exact series of events, no.
Mira may have killed SOMEONE but not Eric's mother. The taxi would've left at a different time to a different location meaning the surgeon wouldn't have died nor would've Sean. Akane's father would not have been accused, meaning Akane's mother never would've committed suicide.

Considering there's a thread about this at all times of day and you guys manage to keep it to only one there's this board called >>>/vg/ that would be glad to have you i.e. fuck off

>>343576529

BABY
>>343576581
did you actually go in the game and check the files
>>343576529
shooting is the logical and moral choice
it should've been "if the gun shoots and Sigma dies, then Phi dies as well."
>>343576565
>with or without it there would have been a first nonary game
Yes but Akane and Santa probably wouldn't have been involved since by having parents they were far less likely to be kidnapped.

What's the best scene and why is it pic related?
>>343576529
shot that nigga
he lived
how the fuck would diana be a conservative
maybe conservative in the way she dresses or something but i can't see her or akane as social conservatives
>>343576802
Maybe she posted on social media about it. Social media is confirmed to be a thing in the ZE Universe as Dianna mentions it to Sigma in theBaby Phi ending.
>>343577105
Carlos going Super Saiyan Blue
>>343577053
literally this. Diana/Sigma romance happy ending stand alone VN WHEN?????
we all agree the extended stranded cutscene was the highlight of the game, right?
can i play this and understand without playing the other 2? i dont wanna invest in something i might not like also i hate ds games
>>343577081
>>343577053
THEY'RE BOTH BEST GIRLAFTER ALL, THEY'RE RELATED
If you want the full Heart Ripper experience, but dont want to put up with Mira, just watch "the boy and his ring" fragment (post-successful dice roll), then C End right after that.
>>343577105
That scene infurates me because they broke no rules, and there is no reason for PENALTY PENALTY to happen.

What did Eric do wrong again?
Why is Akane such a moralfag when she has done so many horrible things herself?
Also doesn't she have some special ability to observe different universes or something? Why was that never brought up?
>>343577161
why not
>mfw I think about all the doomed timelines, especially the one whereSigma and family all die of starvaton.

no, this is going to make zero fucking sense without at least reading a summary of VLR

POST FAN ART GODDAMMIT
>>343576990
How would that keep any of the other kids from going crazy and recreating a nonary game simply for revenge or to save themselves in another history?
What does it matter if someone trades places with Akane and Aoi? What does it matter if the bomb drops anyway as a result?
And if the path she took, due to the snail, changed history why did NO ONE think of SHIFTing to the snail history?

There was an anon who said he was making a photoshop of the "I pretended to be mentally retarded for seven years" meme withDelta.
Did that ever get posted? I've been waiting for it.
>>343577213
The first game is getting remastered HD and ported, just wait for it to come out.
>>343577662
"Thus, six people have to die"
It's a consequence of the rules, not a rule itself.

God damn Akane is hot as fuck in this game. I just want to pull up that skimpy sweater dress and go to town on that ass. Carlos has some good fucking taste.
Am I the only one who actually feels bad for Eric? He literally did NOTHING wrong.
He just does what he does because he's emotionally and mentally unstable, and that he's had a terrible life.

>>343578054
>NO FRAGMENT WHERE JUNPEI, CARLOS, AND AKANE ALL START DRINKING AND FUCK EACH OTHER
why
>>343577282
I'm pretty sure it happened because Carlos needed the motivation to jump to other histories, thus leading the transported Akane and Junpei into the VLR timeline.
>>343577946
Why does Akane have purple hair in this game
>>343578065
Yes, but it's not against the rules. It's obvious that Zero accounted for their shifting, bymaking those other x passes not work, so if he didn't want them to do it that badly, why not make it a rule? As they'll obviously just shift away from PENALTY PENALTY naruto
>>343578054
>NO FRAGMENT WHERE EVERYONE ELSE IN YOUR TEAM IS DEAD AND THAT YOU GET TO SOLVE PUZZLES AND MAKE DECISIONS ALL BY YOURSELF
why
>>343577345
Junpei is there and she is not in control, so each death counts this time since they don't necessarily mean they will get a true result.

Wait what?
Where was that said in the game?
I thoughtshe killed Eric's mother, which is why she was interested in killing Eric, and his last words were the same.
>>343578326
Pretty sure Carlos is the future religious fanatic. Having gained the ability to shift and his overwhelming desire to save people at any cost, he develops a god complex and proclaims himself as a prophet.
Because of his charisma, he quickly gains lots of followers, ends up clashing with Crash Keys then accidentally the whole planet.

999 Remaster announced
>>343578254
It is a rule. He phrases it like a consequence so they can understand it, to make it really obvious, but it never says anywhere that it isn't. Therefore, it must be a rule.
>>343578242
Akane's code name in the JP version of 999 was the Japanese word for Purple. (Though, her name contains the word for Red, while her brother is named the word for Blue)
>>343578685
Old Sigma has no reason to return to 2074, as the Sigma in VLR will just swap with another 2029 Sigma, blah blah blah.
>>343578851the man executed for the murder was akane's dad, her mother killed herself afterwards
>>343578757
Think I might just upload the Character designs for ZTD like I did the expressions yesterday.
>>343578851
It was indirect. Akane's father was executed for the crune and so her mother commuted suicide

>Kyle can tell this timeline's fucked and trots off to his rug to have a nap while it all sorts itself out

Well the rule only says 6 have to die to escape, clearly they didn't escape, so it's not a rule violation.

>>343578371
This actually made me legit sad
His fucking notes man.
He said they were private.
>>343578851
Not him, butMira indirectly caused their deaths, because Mr. Kurashiki was blamed for Eric's mother's death, and Mrs. Kurashiki committed suicide. Of course, if you go to the logical extreme, the snail is the real killer.

But the person caught instead of her was Akane's dad.
>>343578685
It isn't stated in the game, but old sigma is now the main Sigma. Young Sigma SHIFTS back into the body of Apocalypse end Sigma

Young Sigma will always go back to the end of the apocalypse timeline in which he'll do his shit for 45 years and then SHIFT to young Sigma to play the game.

I don't think that'd happen. Carlos beamed himself to one specific timeline; the one that Junpei and Akane went to, where C-team ended up executed. In other words, 10-months-ago Carlos didn't exist in any timelines other than the one where C-team lost the vote.

The underlying idea for the story is good but the writing is bad. Part of it is fault of the translation which just has an unnatural feel to many sections of dialogue, but another part is that there simply isn't enough dialogue which undoubtedly occurred due to budget constraints of being unable to animate/voice them all. I'm sure half of the intended script ended up being cut because it didn't feel fleshed out at all.
It's really difficult coming from a game like VLR which had a ton of narration and interchange between characters, to a game like ZTD which characters only say pretty much what they need to say
That said I don't think it's a bad game, it just looks bad when compared to the other two games, especially VLR
>>343580374
ZTD is overall a great game. It just had a lot of missed potential and it's the final game and the sequel to two other and better wholly packaged games. That's why there are complaints.
ZTD is great, but it could've been excellent.
