ZTD's cinematic style, yay or nay?

Just mindhack me, anon

I get the point of the cinematics, but you lost out on a lot of the richness of writing that the games had previously
This game must have been a breeze to translate unlike the previous games

Just finished it.

It really wasn't that bad but yeah it was way weaker than the other two games. Still had ton of fun and im kinda sad that this great series is now over.

Oh well time to look foward for Danganronpa V3 now.

It honestly wasn't as bad as I thought it was gonna be.

Cinematics make it more "gamey" and opens a market of people who don't want to try novels in fear of being considered weaboo or something like that.
But art style and budget suffer, obviously. So it's neither future nor horrible decision. It's a dilemma.

The best segment of the whole game was the ending where Sigma and Diana got locked up together. I expected some quick fade to black, but I got to watch them for like twenty minutes.

Eric is a nice guy who is super fucked up from childhood trauma, blames himself for his abusive father's murder of his brother and genuinely believes Mira is the only thing making his life worth living to the point that he goes fucking insane when she dies. I don't know how you can play through the whole game and call him a retard when it's clearly not under his control

Mira is the one who takes advantage of him and blatantly doesn't give a shit about this severely mentally ill guy

>>344409610
I thought that was the direction the Pod Room was going with him and Sean and I was really sad when it didn't happen. I mostly just wanted him to stand up for himself and see that his life is actually worth living without Mira

imo best would have been

>Mira tries to kill Sean bc 5 people are already dead and they can escape
>Eric gets mad and protects him
>Mira gets super confused and freaked out bc she has no understanding of human emotion and she genuinely thinks what she's doing is okay and it's what Eric wants

Eric would have gotten his development as a character, Mira would be sympathetic without totally getting it brushed under the rug and it would have been one of the saddest confrontations in the game desu especially if one of them died
>>
>>344409869
Were there any routes where Eric gets mad and calls Sean a brat, or where he snaps and threatens to kill everyone? I really wished that would have happened at least once
>>
>>344409292
Eric is retarded so i don't care what you say, he's an adult and not a kid and should be plain obvious mira gives no fucks about him.

Mira at least took his advice in the end and went to prison and then that fucking hack Ukioshi was like NOPE.

Mira is whatever but don't defend that dumb retard Eric who's fucking trigger happy over some chick who gives zero shit about him.

I was so pissed when he had his gun down so many times and Sigma didn't beat his shit in.

The cene with Eric and his boter is weird. Did his fatherdrown his little brother and then force Eric to thro the body in a lake or something.

I didn't lie how Eric's terriblel trauma got glossed over for memes and humor. mean e pours his heart out and then Mira just kill him in that one end calling shitting on him (that part wasn't te radical-6).
>>
>>344410341
And Diana clearly had the opportunity to leave behind this woman who death means absolutely nothing for and instead she took her to the hospital and knowingly started the apocalypse

>Delta has mind hacking abilities and a quantum conputer
>He's able to get enough informations and assets to find out the truth about his birth and make his existence possible and set up a game while taking in account shifting and multiple timelines
>Yet he's not able to find a single fucker who blew himself up
>Needs to wipe out humanity so that 9 random idiots can stop him and will be somehow able to find said fucker

What the actual fuck delta.
>>
>>344411371
I think it's Carlos the one that shifted back with the info.
Which is why Delta allowed him to participate in ZTD.
>>
>>344411436
>>He's able to get enough informations and assets to find out the truth about his birth and make his existence possible and set up a game while taking in account shifting and multiple timelines
Mustn't be that hard if dumbkane was able to do it.
>>
Someone post that carlos pic where he's in a fireman suit and realized he fucked up.
>>
>>344411436
>The series has shown that if you go back in time and make a different decision it just creates another timeline and nothing really happens
>Delta creates another fucking Nonary Game just to solidify the time loop anyway

Why even bother when the series has shown it doesnt fucking matter

Why not just spray Radical-6 into the air at a FtS gathering or pick someone to be injected

Why were those three vials of Radical-6 the only ones in the facility if it was so important

Why did Uchikoshi maintain the balance between good writing and full retard so carefully in 999 and VLR and then just drop it here

It doesnt make sense

good that they didn't name him Alpha

>Why not just spray Radical-6 into the air at a FtS gathering or pick someone to be injected
The facility was needed to create the fantastic 8, not to spread the virus.

MIND HACK

For 999 and VLR, he had competent producers making sure he didn't do anything too stupid, which he complained about. For ZTD, he had full freedom to put whatever he wanted in without much supervision.

Mira is Eric's mom, and was killed by herself in that alter-timeline, right?
>>
So Q is Delta and is supposed to be there all the time

Killing Saun will not give you a Password

How did Eric and Mira escape after launching a granade to Saun?
>>
>>344411775
He needed this to ensure his birth. Also Radical 6 is not always released. Dleta was trying to create that one good timeline, radical-6 was just thrown in their so humanity doesnot come to a complete end in some of the timelines.
>>
>>344412967
Delta was blown up as well, notice the shadow when the grenade was at Sean's feet, and note the smoke marks coming from Delta's body behind the desk after the explosion.
>>
>>344412639
No. Psychopathy has no cure. She just turns herself in because it would be too troublesome otherwise and Eric is currently the only person she wants to kill. She could never become Eric's mom.
>>
>>344412639
Does it matter?
>>
>>344413078
Radical-6 has 2 purposes
One being plan B if he doesn't succeed
and basically to trigger the events of vlr so that sigma and phi would be able to transfer back

I feel like I'm missing something really important.

The idea that there timelines for every possibility means that if the possibility exists, then that universe must exist (like rolling the three ones, or the rock paper scissors tournament).

So what's the fucking point of any of this? There's already a universe where radical-6 doesn't escape or where the religious dude fails for some reason. All the characters are doing is selfishly trying to get their consciousness into the best universe. It seems pretty pointless when you look at the big picture.
>>
>>344414829
Those universes only exist because Delta went and created them all. That's why his motives are COMPLEX.
>>
>>344391708
This. Internal monologue was incredible, a real shame we lost it this time around.
>>
>>344414959
The universes weren't created. They exist because the possibility of them existing is > 0.
Delta is as much a pawn of fate as anyone else.
>>
>>344414829
>All the characters are doing is selfishly trying to get their consciousness into the best universe
That's Akane for you.
Sigma is trying to save his waifu/shift to a timeline where she's alive(still selfish as fuck)
The rest are victims.
>>
Just to confirm, it was Mira who killed Eric's my right? Because Eric said the exact same thing as the woman who was Mira's first kill, and Eric's mum died around the same time.

Kind of makes it sick that he is in love with the person who ruined his and everyone else's lives.
>>
>>344415354
yes
and the man who was convicted for the murder was akane's dad
>>
>>344415071
Those specific ones only exist because Delta took the action to make them.

Or fate guided Delta to take those actions. It's the same shit.
>>
Eriku did nothing wrong.
>>
>>344405851
>Dio
Awful
>>
>>344415526
>Or fate guided Delta to take those actions. It's the same shit.
Right, exactly.
The "good ending" universe must exist because there is a possibility that Delta would go through all that stupid shit. So the best ending was already an inevitability.
That goes into what they were saying about the 2^100 tournament, and the anthropic principle.
>>
>>344390463
Would have worked better if it had an actual budget to have good animation.
>>
>>344415804
Nah, the animations and facial expressions provided half the entertainment value.
>>
So we can agree that VLR was the best overall game yes?
>>
Wait how the fuck did Delta know about the terrorist? If everyone died, there was no one to shift back to a point where he could mind hack them.
>>
>>344416008
999 was the best for me. I was more emotionally invested.
It's pretty close though.
>>
>>344416008
I personally prefer 999.
>>
>>344416098
I guess someone who was a split-second away from dying shifted back and he just happend to mindo hakku them.
>>
>>344416008
999>VLR>ZTD in my opinion
>>
>>344416098
probably because of sigmas future consciousness
>>
>>344416098
Also how does a single terrorist somehow spark an all-out nuclear war?

Like, sure, a singular nuclear explosion I can understand, but how is it possible to orchestrate it so that it escalates from there?
>>
>>344416482
Read Akira

Just finished this wild ride.

>mention a spooky ritual that seems super important

Biggest disappointment of the game tbqh.
Best bit was Sigma and Diana trapped for 10 months.

How is the English dub? I couldn't say no to Sawashiro and Sugita.

Bomb USA and blame it on Russia.
Shit's easy.

>>344416587
i'm used to the japanese dub after playing vlr and i think the english one is acceptable but not as good
>>
Why can Delta use his quantum computer to calculate all different timelines while Sigma can use it only to run a rabbit AI on it?
>>
>>344416482
It's a japanese game, they don't know anything about international politics
>>
>>344416721
>only to run a rabbit AI
Don't forget his waifu bot.
>>
>>344416721
Sigma is dumb as hell.
>>
>>344416721
Its too complex for him
>>
>>344404549
Put it in
>>
>>344416721
Delta is simply just too good.

Falsely convicted by the American justice system (probably also rigged by Delta).

Also, he's just fortunate one timeline didn't decide to send over a ticking nuclear bomb, Radical-6, an actual FBR, or some other nutty device out of the Transporter onto his ass.

>Sigma talking about unconditional love in one timeline

Dysfunction junction.

Akane probably killed the woman and sent the mail to Sigma

Those characters are poorly written.

>>344414829
>The idea that there timelines for every possibility
The timelines are not infinite. It's only as many as the choices that every espers have made. To create specific timeline, the espers need to choose specific choices as well.

I don't think that's right. It wouldn't explain Sean creating different timelines.

>>344420779
The "Inject Radical-6?" decision game creates two different timelines for example. One ends with the VLR end, the other with Mira killing everybody and Sean's Happy End.

>>344420558
Sean simulates timelines by calculating the variables, which may or may not retroactively affect events preceding the point of calculation.

I guess some immediate Game Over timelines can be excused by "This is what Sean expects would happen".

Emulate it. There's no real reason to wait, unless they fix the fact that you have to do puzzles multiple times on repeat playthroughs which is irritating as fuck.

what exactly happens with sigmas young body after he was knocked out in his car?
is he just waking up with old sigma in the body and be like
>yep gotta go to dcom!
wouldn't that take some days to get there?
and also they have been there already for several days so it just doesn't fit together
>>
>>344421181
No kidding. "I'm doing this so you could be a better team" and "We can change the future, together" is a culmination straight out of the kids' show.
>>
>>344421938
>is he just waking up with old sigma in the body and be like
>>yep gotta go to dcom!

that's exactly what happens, and they spent 5 datys at Dcom so he had 1 day to reach it
>>
I always imagined the shifting consciousness of a dying body kinda merging with the one he shifts too, straight out pushing it back to die kinda ruined all these games for me
>>
>>344421938
He was knocked out by Akane and Phi, probably on their way to Dcom.

>>344421108

He's not on Mars, the whole Dcom thing happens in Nevada.
>>
>>344421228
It was announced that they'll be adding voice-acting in the port, but one of the main plot points is tied to DS second screen. Make your mind on this yourself

>>344422264
I agree, that would've been a nicer ability than a clean swap.

>>344408495
Forgot to thank you Anon this is perfect

I don't have wifi but when I do the end result will be worth it I hope
>>
>>344422264
I kind of agree. At first I thought that the person SHIFTed to another timeline but also stayed in their own (like how the Transporter works but with consciousness).
