Motion blur or no motion blur. That is the question.

>no texture resolution options
Seems fine for a low budget handheld port besides that
>>340205887
Well it has borderless so it's already better than most AAA titles. Abstraction games made the DR ports too so it should be well made.
>"Is anything being censored or 'localized'?"

Aww yeah.

Fuck's up alla y'all DECISION-making fucks?I'm working on writing out my Grand Unified Theory
>>340206062
I mean, I doubt they're doing anything but native textures, and it probably won't need anything recent to run it.
>>340207689ETA on the theory? I love reading those
>>340208381
Perhaps a day or two to really get everything condensed - right now I'm replaying a game and compartmentalizing the relevant information that I can tie in.
That, and waiting for a friend to wake up who can help me double-check and cross reference.
That's uh, not much substantiation for a whole thread...
>>340205887
What the hell does borderless mean?
>>340209608
I really thought dick jokes alone would float it. Here's hoping we get to examine Mira too.
>>340209639
Borderless fullscreen. Like windowed but takes up full screen. Good if you have 2 monitors or alt tab a lot
>>340209947
So you're saying it takes up the entire screen, but the minimize buttons and stuff like that are still visible? In that case, shouldn't it be called "bordered"? Sorry, I may have read your post wrong.
>>340210197
No the border is gone. It looks exactly like fullscreen, but acts like windowed when you alt tab or something.
>>340207501
C-crotch patting?

Oh, alright. Thanks.

The motion blur looked pretty nice in the demo they showed. It wasn't overused, and was just for the animation when zooming in on shit to inspect. Why the fuck does the PC version have to be four days later though? It's clearly already done, fuck's sake.
>>340211979
It's just one day later. It would be better if it released simultaneously I can deal with it.
Wait it's coming out on PC? what about the other ones?
>>340212101
>It's just one day later.
It's the 30th, and the 3DS/Vita version is the 26th. That's not one day.
>>340211979
Four? More like one
>>340212149
3DS/Vita is the 28th, not the 26th.
>>340212149
Handheld release is the 28th, yo
>>340212149
>>340212302
Oh shit disregard never mind. Dunno where I read that.
>>340212149
Where the hell did you get 26th from? The console versions are 28th, Steam is 30th in Japan which means 29th in the West.
So who's Buying both Handheld and Steam versions?
3DS through Amazon for FREE because reasons
Payin actual money for the Steam version.
>>340212127
It's been announced for PC for a while. They hinted that the earlier games *may* come to PC at some point but nothing more. The most recent trailer for ZTD shows HD video from 999, including door animations (which weren't in the iOS port) so I reckon there's the possibility of a PC port.
>>340212429
>Steam is 30th in Japan which means 29th in the West
Is that why its release date says the 29th on the Store page but the pinned discussion post thing on the Discussion whatever-the-fuck-it's-called page states the 30th?
>>340212582
Yeah, Aksys confirmed it's time zone differences.
>>340212551
I'm buying neither because reasons but I'll be pirating that PC release ASAP. What is even a decent vidya tracker nowadays? Haven't kept up with one since BitGamer died.
>>340212694

Cancer.
Never been this hyped about a videogame before.
Not sure how to feel about this.
>>340212551
I am, don't mind throwing money at this because it's one of few games I'm looking forward to this year and by far the most anticipated one.
I'm Yuropoor though so I pre-ordered a Japanese version just to own a physical version of both the game and booklet.
>>340205887

>>340212551
I'm a poorfag so I'll probably end up buying the Steam version with a few CS:GO and TF2 items I have lying around.
>>340212926
Unfortunately, I now have more important things to spend money on and cannot buy frivolous things like vidya.;_;

>>340214363
Luna is not Diana. As for Tenmyouji I didn't notice,but maybe it's intentional. I always found it weird how he claimed to have not been at the test site.
>>340214185

>>340214185
Quick, make assumptions based on these images:
Mira is Clover
Diana is a FTS Member
Carlos is Kyle

It's probably to not make it an obvious spoiler. Luna and Diana are supposed to look the same, though.

I assume it's like VLR in that it extends further down as you progress. That way you can't tell which choice leads you to a "dead end".
>>340217141
They said it is designed to be, but your experience will be better if you play the others first.
>>340217141
If it's like VLR then it should be, but people really should be aware that playing the prequels in a story heavy series would be a good idea.

Judging from this map, I'm guessing there's going to be a total of 18 puzzle rooms, 6 for each team. VLR had what, 16 rooms or so? Would be about the same length then.

lol and as we can see uchi has fantastic english
>>340220151
I don't know about that, comparing the trophy lists between the games. VLR has trophies for completing 1, 8, then 16 puzzle rooms. ZTD has trophies for completing 1, 6, then all of them. We can't be sure of what the last number is, but 6 being the midway point suggests a smaller total than Virtue's Last Reward.

>>340219010
Oh fuck don't pull another Remember 11 please.
>>340220642
The localization does have its share of rough spots. Even the localization editor voiced some regrets at things he felt he should have handled better, particularly with Phi's dialogue.
>>340220875
This guy wasn't.
>>340220040
>Beginning of the End
Yep this has to be the bullshit.
One ending leads to the beginning of the game.
>>340220642
Well enough to realize the translation isnt accurate.
And its BASIC japanese that somehow they fucked up translating to english.
>>340220862
I'll never be able to hear that intro without saying to myself
>Life is simply unfair...don't you think?
Say what you will about reused music but this song was perfect for that trailer.
>>340220642
I also liked translation efforts that change stuff, because sometimes it offers more concrete answers or explanations that are impossible to understand when directly translated.
See: Bloodborne. The title of the final boss of the DLC is called "The Orphan of Kos" in English, but in Japanese it's name is "The Infant, Grown Old". Shit like that is all over Bloodborne- Rom's name in Japanese is basically "Retarded Rom"

At least this one seems more decisive?I'm worried, guys ;__;
>>340220754
Ah, makes sense. To be honest, I don't mind if there are 12-13 rooms if it means fewer duds like rec room, pantry and Q. This time around, there seems to be a lot more focus and variation on the Decision games compared to the AB game.
>>340221476
Nope, but you should download a DS emulator and play 999 in like 8x resolution, absolutely no reason not to.
>>340221476
Yes:
Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors
Virtue's Last Reward.
Now fly away from this thread little birdie before the spoils come.
>>340221476
Not necessarily, but you would enjoy it more if you played the previous two games.
>>340221476
You don't need to, but you should. It's the third and final game in a trilogy. The previous game while better if you played the one before it, still explained everything so you could start with it. They said the case will be the same here too.
>>340221476
It's not out yet so it's hard to say how well it stands on its own, but you should play the previous games.
>>340221618

It will be fun in ZTD.
>>340221523
You're reading too much into this. The original question was just about the number of endings, not how much closure the final ending would give.
>>340221761
Fuck off. They don't NEED to play them.
>>340221476
First, Download 999 and an DS emulator.
Once you finished that, find a way to get VLR.
Also, get the fuck out of this thread you retard because people will be spoiling who zero is
>>340221792
Don't tell people to skip the first two games. That's just stupid.
>>340221469
999 > ZTD >>>>>> VLR
for "Seek a way out!"
>>340221894
Telling them they HAVE to read them is more stupid. You don't need to play the previous games, at all. The story will be as self contained as VLR.

It's a hell of a lot better to experience the stories first hand rather than some random recap in the 3rd game. Why would you try to spoil what happens in 999 and VLR?

It's official. It's literally the cover of the game.

Of course it's not literal, but you're clearly going to enjoy it more if you've played the previous games, the story and continuity is kind of a big deal here. Saying you don't need to have played the previous games at all is more of dick move, as you're making them seem less connected than they are. VLR already spoiled big parts of 999.

I have a bigass TV in front of my bed that's hooked up to my PC.
You can't get more comfy than that.
>>340222492
>better looking
Is this true though?
>>340222509
Handheld comfiness isn't a meme. Nothing like playing a good game late into the night in bed.
>>340222557
Of course it is. Don't be silly. It'll be in a higher resolution and with more anti aliasing.
So has the game been spoiled/leaked or can I enjoy these threads with you people again?
>>340222305
>Japan thought 999 was to scary
>They literally get the most hardcore version of the cover
>>340222557
Vita version is 544p. 3DS version is 240p. PC version is 1080p with AA.
>>340222703
Yeah, basically.
>>340222557
>1080p 60fps + Anti Aliasing
>540p 20fps
>240p 20fps
nah you might be right it's less cinematic
>>340222681
The only "leak" is a list of achievements that barely spoils anything.
>>340222557
I'll be getting 3DS and Steam for collection bladiblah purposes, but let's be real, PC is going to look the best.
>>340222667
>>340222714
>>340222768
Are the textures higher res or just scaled up?
>>340222656
It's a meme for me. Playing on TV is more comfy than handheld.
The only reason I have handhelds is for exclusives. If all 3DS games were on Wii-U I wouldn't even have a 3DS.
Friendly reminder that if you buy the PC version you give money to Kike Chunsoft, the company that cancelled the game, instead of the one that supported it, Aksys.
>>340222863
It's not a matter of textures only. The models are rendered in a higher resolution and you have the option of high AA.
>People actually not double dipping.
Vita + PC is the only combo acceptable
>>340222863
No confirmation. But it looks that way. The 3DS version has far lower quality textures, as you can see in pretty much every screenshot of it, but I don't know if the PC version and Vita's textures are the same.
>>340223001
No, leaked cia + PC is the only combo acceptable.
>>340222863
We don't know yet, but I do know it looks better than the 3DS and Vita versions.
>>340223013
Wrong thread anon
>>340222887
>the company that cancelled the game
Also the ones that funded it in the end.
Meanwhile Aksys sit there and go "pls pls pls give it to us".
Spike have to make a profit, and that means cancelling unprofitable games. If anything I'd want to support the company not run by retards.

>>340223090
It doesn't really look like the higher resolution is doing it many favors.
Does anybody know when Amazon is going to start listing dates for estimated delivery? Or do I have to wait until a week prior?
>>340222887
>wahhh a publisher made a business decision!
999 and VLR sold like shit. Spike didn't cancel it to be mean, they canceled it because it didn't seem profitable.
Stupid commie.
>>340222773
Well alright then. Still gonna be cautious though

I dunno. Compare pic related with this: >>340223009
I certainly know I'd pick the higher res one.
>>340215294

>>340223446
I mean compared to the Vita, not the 3DS. The 3DS version wouldn't look much worse if it were just the resolution that was different, but there's an obvious difference in the visuals themselves.
>>340223510
>Tfw it's not gonna be for me
It started on the DS and ends on the DS for me.
>>340223307
999 actually did fairly well compared to most other similar games in Japan. Nothing the level of a big name like Ace Attorney, of course, but it did respectable numbers for what it was. Spike-Chunsoft would never have proposed a sequel if it had sold that badly. The main problem was that VLR sold a lot less than expected.
>>340223802
Vita looks far too aliased for me.
>>340223992
>The main problem was that VLR sold a lot less than expected
I wonder why.
I am still assmad we don't get to play as Sigma this time.
>>340223597
3ds pirate download. It could leak early. As early as someone getting the game.
Too bad the physical release is only in USA so that decreases the chances of leaking.
Saturn my faggot are you here?
>>340224151
>game has three routes confirmed
>trophies list a forth "CQD" route
there is a chance
>>340224151
They could never do that. Senior Sigma knows too much about what happens. Wrecks it for the actual player.
>>340224151
Sigma knows too much to be a viable candidate for Protagonist. Phi too, and June more likely than not. Who the fuck knows what's going on with Junpei.
>>340223992
I feel like the reason for that is, to me, it seemed like they hardly advertised the game anywhere as well as it being hard to get/find in stores.
When I got my copy of VLR it was like a week or so after it's release and trying to find a store with it was like trying to find a needle in a hay stack. I know most people now tend to order games online or digitally but it seems you'd only do that if you already know of the games existance.
>>340223807
That sounds epic as fuck for some reason.
>>340224334
>Who the fuck knows what's going on with Junpei
Motorcycles.
>>340224334
>>340224273
The Sigma we would play as hasn't done this game before though, just prepared his whole life for it.
>>340224178
>Too bad the physical release is only in USA so that decreases the chances of leaking.Good
>>340224151
They were planning on having Sigma be a player character, but they switched it to Diana to accommodate the new audience.
Can he fix it?
>>340224721
Fuck off retard.
>>340205887
That's a cute ginger.

SIX BILLION
>>340224046
Those screens are from a test build or something, indicated by the numbers in the corner. All other sets of screens have more anti-aliasing.
>>340224721
The fuck did he change in 999? Something about Seven?
>>340224843
>>340224721
He's not involved in ZTD. He's a freelancer now. ZTD's localization was done by new guys, not the ones who did the other games.
>>340224721
>zero escape
>lower, 999
OP Confirmed for retard.
>>340225037
There was nothing wrong with the translation for the other 2.Nothing seriously wrong anyway
>>340224923
All the other screens are from the PC build. Aksys Games don't have the PC version, only the Vita and 3DS ones, and the only screens that they have released are those ones, the rest came from Spike Chunsoft who have and are publishing the PC version in english. The video of gameplay that Polygon published came from Spike Chunsoft, not Aksys, yet was in english, and is of the Steam build.
All the footage in trailers is also of the Steam build.
>>340224334
Junpei has to have learned some stuff about FtS and whatever since 999, otherwise what's even the point of becoming an underground detective?
>>340225060
>OP
>>340225037
It was done by Karen that worked on both 999 and VLR
>>340224939
Nothing, it's just an image by a retard, you can tell by the faggot not even knowing what ZE is.
>>340225037
>not the ones who did the other games.
They did work on the past games, Karen was the assistant editor for VLR, and is the main editor for ZTD.

>being this retarded
Alright, anon, you got me.
>>340225273
The original sketches look eh. She looks better in the game.
>>340225296
And look at the video. It's running at a higher resolution than the Vita even is. There is no way this is 544p with AA.
>>340225457
The video is at 720 max resolution and it doesn't fill the entire window, it's at like 600-650p, of course they had to stretch it a bit so they could show it at a proper resolution instead of a lower one (480).

VLR was also released when the 3DS and Vita still had a pretty small audience, compared to the DS's huge install base. A lot of people over-simplify the situation and go around saying "Japan hates the series!" but there were a lot of factors at work.
>>340226787
I'm going to be sad if the last three are actually true.Especially Jumpy and Kanny
The first one I've pretty much accepted by this point.
>there are anons that will die in the next three weeks before ever finishing the Zero Escape series
>>340226787
>That's not the real Jumpy and Kanny
This is the one sort of twist I won't accept. If someone ends up being an impostor I don't know what I'll do.
Say what you will about the other twists, at least everyone was who we believed they were. Well, except forK in the cyan door timeline, but we still spent the majority of the game with him.
>>340227253
>There were anons who died in the hype phase of MGS5 and never saw what happened.

So Junpei got a job with Seven as a detective right. And Snake is new Zero forcing his Clover to return to him.

>>340227709
>Big Brother! Is that you?!
You know, ifAcehad never kidnapped those kids, no one would have never realized their esper powers so VLR couldn't have been set up, which probably would have meantthe release of Radical-6would have been unavoidable. I guess Ace is sort of responsible for saving the world then.
>>340228057
Ace did nothing wrong
>>340227471
No, nothing has leaked. It's just steam pictures. Don't listen to the faggots trying to scare people off.
>>340228057
>>340228149
He's a lovable oaf.
UCHIIIIIIII
>>340228057
That's the plottwist.
Ace did all those things knowing how everything ends up. Remember that he himself was a victim of the nonary game himself and only became the (single) winner because he was an Esper himself.
What if he saw the future and orchestrated everything to make sure humanity survives in the long term.
Literally branding himself as a villain just to save humanity. Pulling a punished snake.
Do we know yet if the PC version supports 2K or 4K? I am assuming it will be like Senran Kagura where Borderless allows you to get to those resolutions if your desktop is set to it.
>>340228057
They'll probably creaye a new timeline where left never died, causing FtS to never exist which prevents the Nonary game from ever occuring and Radical-6 and everyone lives happy ever after. Except Junpei and Akane who can see a timeline where they are happy with no baggage but know they can never have that together. Diana is gonna kill 6 billion so such a world exists.
>>340228495
I'm not sure.
>>340228445
ok if this is a shop then what the fuck is that font?
i could have used it for that meme from like 200 posts ago
I think motion blur is terrible in anything. I'd rather play with a crisp picture.
>>340228838
This is literally the whole extent of the motion blur in the game. When you zoom in on shit. But if that really triggers you, then there's an option.
Alice will be frozen in Ice-9 and transported through time in the coffin to the titanicofBrother, having sent his mind into lord contintin will become obsessive searching for titanic relics and Alice to queation her about what occured. He will use this knowledge to start FtS and find a way to exploit alternate outcomes to find a way to save hia brother. He will inhabbit Akane to orchestrate the events of VLR so that he can use the mars test game to shoot his brother Qs consiousness into a body before he dies with extreme trauma. This body will be Quark.
>>340229064
That's not as bad as having the camera rotate with motion blur on for example, but it's still nice they give you an option to turn it on/off.
>>340228445

I really hope Dio was somehow able to transfer his consciousness back in time to another Myrmidon and will show up in ZTD. He was fucking great in VLR.
Guys guys guys. What if...
What if, listen to this one..
Like..
What if you actually didn't go to the past at all. You're even farther into the future in the VLR timeline and that's not akane and junpei. It's just (you) the player thinking it's them so giving them that label. Sigma's body was put into those cryonics chamber you saw in VLR.
Like Junpei said in VLR true ending: Some of the bikers stay behind in the terrible timeline.
What if YOU are the biker.

>They are Bionic already.

so fellas
how will siggy lose his arms and an eye
>>340229468
Carlos will probably think Junpei's being a dick for no reason to this perfectly lovely girl, and neither one will explain because no one wants to go into all of it - Akane because she wants to maintain that image, and Junpei because he's all jaded and shit.
There was a pair of screencaps where it looks like the two of them are alone. Akane is asking Junpei if he knows about morphogenetic fields, and Junpei says something like "that's ancient history". Poor Carlos is going to be in the middle of a hella awkward situation.
>>340230024
Diana pokes his eye out after she gets done poking his crotch
>>340230024
He'll fall down some stairs
>>340230024
Carlos will beat the living shit out of him.
>>340230056
Dude. Junpei in his body will be Tenmyouji sent to the past. Thats why hes super dickish and doesn't recall meeting Akane since 999
>>340230024
he will gouge out his eyes and cut of his blood supply to make sure the events of VLR will happen like it was supposed to.
Turns out that VLR was the best timeline humanity could have had.

It originally was a school swimsuit, she said that because he'll never see her grow up.
>>340231106
Of course he does, they're only popular in Japan. He's said how much he admires the TTG adventure games and how he wishes he could have a series as popular as something "like GTA". VNs will never be that so he hates them. He's not wrong either, most VNs have shitty generic animu art that looks like it was drawn by a retarded 12 year old. Clannad is a great example of just plain bad art.
>>340231303

>>340231452
I don't blame him for wanting to break away from VNs, honestly. You don't get rewarded for trying new things in that genre, that audience only wants the same shit over and over, wrapped in different moe packages.
>>340231616
You're still gonna buy it, right anon?
>>340231616
it won't.
>>340231616
It will run it. It's powerful enough to run it at least.
But sometimes some games don't run on integrated graphics that are in laptops for some bizarre reason. There is a small chance that the game won't start due to this.
PLEASE buy the game after you've pirated it and confirmed that it works.
Post YFW junpei doesn't get cucked.

Oh my god you just reminded me, that was some SHIT.
Clover was a huge goddamn ditz the whole game, she thinks the Pantry is full of panties, and yet I'm supposed to believe she remembers what a cholinesterase inhibitor is after hearing about it ONCE? She and Snake just happened to have a casual chitchat about neostigmine one sunny afternoon?

That's your own problem. The game's RRP is $40 in NA. Just because Amazon JP charges more to get that shipped to Japan doesn't change the price the original game is.
>>340239236
There are those versions already in japan that cost about 5000 like you said. Thats about 60usd
>but its only $40 for me
Thats cool. My original post said $60, no thanks"
I'm only speaking for myself and what im willing to pay for a really dull vn
>>340230330
>>340230656
I want both you shitters to leave.
>>340239495
>Thats about 60usd
About $45 actually.
>>but its only $40 for me
Actually, it's $40 for everyone, including you. It's just on top of that $40 you have to pay more because like some retard you chose to live in a country where you don't even speak the native language.
>>340239495
>5000 like you said. Thats about 60usd
It's about 46 usd actually
>>340239665
I said earlier i speak japanese. Im just not going to buy another 3ds
>this incessant rant of insults
Calm down David, no ones going to take your book game away from you
What is the probability that the game will leak considerably (>2 days) before street date?
>>340239892
I think the funniest part is just how boring your day is that you've come to this thread to argue about a game you are so uninformed on you think it's a visual novel despite the fact it features only animated cutscenes and escape room gameplay sequences and no VN text boxes. It's cute really.

He had shitposted in the thread before, he wasn't a new IP either.
>>340240060
Not him but it's obviously a VN, just because the cutscenes are fully voiced doesn't make it not a VN
It's a VN/adventure hybrid
>>340240325
By that logic every game with cutscenes and gameplay is a VN.
>>340240306
>he wasn't a new IP either.
Does anyone really this anally observe the poster count with each new post made? I mean, really? Am I missing something? Is there a tool that does this for you?
>>340238014
Because the Zero in ZTD is legitimately a deranged psychopath who is doing what he's doing for his sadistic enjoyment.
It doesn't matter whether or not the timeline is doomed or if he dies. He has the power to jump through time just like Sigma or Phi, and his power to do so is much, much greater.
>>340240054
I would expect it to leak at least 5 days early.
>>340240429
>Is there a tool that does this for you?
4chanX.
Akane will hypnotize herself in order to trick herself.La li lu le lo
>>340240389
Not really, the cutscenes represent the majority of the "game". This is not true with regular games and their cutscenes, where the cutscenes are just little bits here and there
>>340240429
4chanX yeah, I happened to look into his first post when it was posted and it wasn't a new IP.
>>340240443
That's why he's obsessed with choices and dilemmas. He wants to explore literally every single outcome in a situation, and he wants to know how the characters would react, what they would do, and how they would survive. He jumps back again and again, just to find out what would happen if the characters chose the other option.Just like the player.
> tfw that horrible realization when an LP shitter like DSP is more likely to play ZTD
> tfw I imagine him playing the Nonary game
>>340240509
Don't be silly. They're animated cinematic. That would make them more deserving of that "movie-game" meme that gets thrown around. Not a VN.
>>340240880
No one is getting ZTD for the gameplay, and it's also not for the graphics. This is all about the story. I can count the games I've played for the story on one hand, suffice it to say "movie-games" are those like Uncharted and are still ultimately about the gameplay, not the story. The gameplay just happens to be shit
>>340240443
>>340240787
But they already pulled the "you are Zero" twist with Sigma
>>340241140

Kindly fuck off.

Is there honestly anyone who sees the puzzles as anything but obstacles to enjoying the rest of the story? There isn't a single one that's actually fun.
>>340241473
I typically enjoy puzzles, but yeah, ZE series puzzles are pretty lame. Though I enjoy getting to choose my own path to take and whatnot which is why I'll play it instead of just watching a LP
>>340241287
>>340241206
It's worth remembering the specifics, here.The people who leapt are Sigma and Phi.
Furthermore, Kyle's conscience is noted to have been forcibly moved to that point, in a vacant form.
Finally [?] was also going to appear, totalling a number of four 'conscience jumpers', excluding the possibility of Akane, and most likely also Junpei.
>>340241473
I honestly think you're in the minority, pal
>>340241473
There's a reason why everyone shits on 999 iOS
>>340241639
Same. Choices have more impact when you make them...
Plus, I can only ever find LP's where people talk during them, which ruin the entire goddamn video. Is it really so hard to shut the hell up and play a game silently?
>>340241362
we're going to murder 6 billion through a coin flip
>>340241804
I share your sentiment, most people who don't give retarded voice-acting, voice-over, or voicing their guttural belching and nasal snark, write 'No Commentary Playthrough' most of the time.
>>340241473
I know I don't. I don't mind looking up the answers. Puzzles are shit.
>>340241696
I assumed it was because of the horrible art and lack of a double screen that ruins the twist at the end. I mean, the only thing you lose is some funny moments in the puzzle rooms. The puzzles themselves aren't actually fun, are they?Being a dick aside, I really didn't know that anyone liked the puzzle rooms. What do you like about them, specifically? I'm starting to feel like I missed something and it's my fault for not enjoying them.
>>340206062
It's a really quick port of a handheld title.
I'm honestly more amazed it has ANY kind of options aside resolution.

I'll literally distribute 15 copies of the Steam version on /v/ when the pre-orders are up.
>>340242415
I'll dump the 3DS .cia ;)

Are you going to force people to play a dastardly game?
>>340242130
Nothing's wrong with you anon, we all like different things. I for one can't see why peopledislike the new artist, I actually like her style much better, it's all just different strokes.
Personally I like the puzzles because they cover a bunch of different themes, and because I just like escape-the-room puzzles in general.

I am buying watch ZTD and might pirate the PC version, depending on how well my pc can run that.
I still have hopes for a leak of the 3DS version
An Ambidex Gate has been opened. 21 days remain until Ambidex Game polling closes.
Huh, pc version seems to be better than I expected. Considering it's a handheld port by a small time jap company I'm surprised to see stuff like AA, borderless window and being able to pick a resolution.
>>340243240
Huh. Rui is twitter friends with Masahiro Ito.
>>340237819
They're not, outside of some select ones that manage to hit it big. In fact, 999 was actually a project that Chunsoft proposed in order to give visual novels a wider appeal.
>>340243240
Rui Tomono is male.
>>340244104
And somehow ZE gained more traction in the US than in JP. Kind of weird how that worked out.
I'm gonna jump.
See you all in the next timeline.
>>340244415
Will do.
