Time to play the Decision game /v/.
One box is the Real deal
One box is the Fake I leaked on June 2nd.
Can you guess which is the real one?
Spoiler the thread for everyone else.
>>343086037
>Mira
Why would Sigma and Diana tell her the exact dateDelta was born. Most people don't even know about the exact birthdays of their friends'in another timelinekids
>tfw I could've pirated this game a couple of days ago but I didn't because I didn't play 999 or VLR yet
Finished it yesterday. 25 hours.
Really liked it, they got the flowchart right this time.
Fuck uchi there are really many things unsolved and unexplained.
ZE4 CONFIRMED
>>343087302
>Fuck uchi there are really many things unsolved and unexplained
Gotta hand it to him and his effort tho.
I really hope this game sells well so that SpikeChunsoft would put more trust in Uchi for his next work.
>Get copy today
>Notice the spine isnt set right
>Haha, manufacturing error, i'll just fix it when I get home-
>Open it up
>Adjust sleeve
>Its badly printed and doesn't fit properly
UCHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
>>343086507
So since it's the daytime, can we have a civil and rational discussion of the game, or will we be bombarded by literal children at any time who ignore information and promises provided during Q&As, act as if their wacky headcanon carries more veracity than the creator of the entire fucking series, and obsesses upon tacking on petulant insults as a way to support their arguments?
Am I going crazy, or is some of the music in this game originally from ever17?

Why was she in the washing machine, /v/?
>>343089801
because Takeshi had to dry his laundry.
But don't worry, he won't dry here. He will come back. he made a promise.
The Q Team showdown is bullshit. I've rewatched it and I don't see where Delta could've been or his shadow like people implied.
>eric say sit's impossible for Q to be mira's killer despite accusing "Q" of being the killer

Should just get it from a store?
help i'm stuck
I don't have any new scenario available, last thing I've done was ending D-2 and the FQB of D team (the only one I was able to do so far), but it interrupts just aftersigma, diana and phi realize they are a family
what do
>>343090007
you see his shadow next to the chair, its not a human shadow, its the wheelchair shadow
its kind of trapezoid shaped.
>This manufacturing room puzzle with the Tazer

Or am I just being stupid.

You have to zap the one on the very left first, then do what the note says. Fucked me over for a while too.
>>343091181JUST USE IT ON THE LEFTMOST FIRST

>>343090497
Amazon has guaranteed release date delivery with Prime. If it hasnt arrived by EOD today they owe you an explanation, and possibly some kind of compensation.
They gave me a free month of prime when Uncharted 4 was not delivered on the Tuesday it was released.
Needless to say, if ZTD doesnt arrive today I will be asking them to escalate to a manager for an explanation for failing to meet their Guarantee multiple times
>>343091570
nope
But I just figuredI had the code for the door in Door of Truth, after trasporting
>you will never be Carlos' Maria
>>343090497
I preordered on July 9th 2015 and haven't heard a peep from them. And I'm a prime member, so I should have gotten release date shipping.
>watch version hasn't shipped from Amazon
>Amazon doesn't even have a release date listed on it's page
> same page advertises release day delivery
>>343092039
of course it doesnt have a release date listed. the game has already been released.
>>343086507
the ending sucks man
and the twist is worse that the "you were an old man all along"
>order from amazon almost a full year ago
>not a fucking peep
Should I just cancel and go to the store. I'm not sure if the watch is gonna be worth it?
I'm pretty fucking mad, right now.
I just finished the apocalypse ending for C team and I'm stuck again. The only thing I've been able to do so far the is FQB for C team. I can't figure out the code for the computer for Q team's FQB. I don't even know if I'm supposed to know it yet.
>>343092483
They're supposedly going to sell the watches online later but I'm worried they'll sell out immediately. If I knew I could get one for sure I'd just cancel my Amazon order.
>>343092524
Trust me, they make the codes obvious (the one hardest to get is the C team code actually), so I would bet you don't know it yet. Which options are locked for you in your global flowchart?
>>343092969
The parts that are locked for me areanything after Carlos gets shot by Eric, the game over where Diana doesn't push the blue button, and anything after FQB C.
VLR > 999 > ZTD
ZTD never introduced an unexpected twist, but introduced more psychic esper bull, and also never resolved any fucking thing at all. The one thing they did well was the integration into VLR.
>>343088680
>>343089724
I thought I was the only one who thought this.
>>343093327
>ZTD never introduced an unexpected twist
B-butALIENSwas an unexpected twistand it sucked so much, I fucking hate him.
>>343093298
Ah. In your global flowchart, near the top left, there are "execution results". Light blue icon for all teams survived, red for c team executed, green for q team, blue for d team. Make sure all 4 are lit. If you are missing one, go back and make your teams vote for that missing icon
>>343093832
True. I guess I saw it as more of an asspull than a twist. Fucking hell, now that you've reminded me of it, I'm even more mad.
I just hate how cheesy the final act got. Zero acted way too cartoony, and his special ability was pretty lame.
The final act didn't even feel like it was part of the series, the tone was way out there
SOMEONE COLOR PHI'S HAIRRED[spoiler/]
>>343094767And give her D cups.
is there anepilogue, or is really the final scene Carlos pointing at delta?
>>343095135
That's it. Unfortunately.
There's cinema text files unlocked after you beat the game if you haven't read them yet. They aren't much.
>>343095135
Yes there are ending files.
The mention how Team D dies on their way to the moon for example. But you have to read them for yourself, you can't make that shit up.
>>343095448
>The mention how Team D dies on their way to the moon for example.
No you moron, it mentioned team D DYES their hair colors. Pay attention to spelling, geez.
>I feel for the Amazon meme
How do I make the salt go away.
>>343095420
Are there text files for Sigma, Phi and Diana or did I get cucked?
>>343095671
No, he's right. You must have misread. D-Team does DIE.
>>343095852
Yes, they mention how team D dyes their hair color on their way to the moon. Diana always wanted to visit the moon, remember?
>>343095718
Yes but they are the least elaborate of them all. Mildly cucked.
>>343095852
Just regarding Diana and Sigma in the VLR Apocalypse timeline (which are two, I believe).
Did you have those?
>>343095135no, only fanfic-tier stories of how happy they are
>Start the game
>pick blue on the coin flip
>Think to myself "isn't THIS the happy ending Akane, Sigma and Phi were searching for in the ending of VLR?"

Dropped concepts. :)

Please look forward to Zero Escape 4.
>>343096439Zero Kyle Dilemma:^)
>>343096546
>>343096661
>>343096669
I should've expected this, there were shitloads of dropped concepts from 999 -> VLR, as if this was any different.
>>343096661
Q3: Are there plans to end the series after Zero Escape 3 – or continue it?
How far ahead is the series being planned?
>I plan on ending things with the 3rd volume. So basically it’ll be a trilogyThanks for the money, suckers!
>no morphogenetic sorrow anywhere
>not even for the seek a way out screen
This was my only issue with the game. Why was this allowed
>>343096927
>No morphegenetic sorrow anywhere
Are you fucking deaf? It played like 8 times, Piano version.
>>343096439
To be honest I was actually expectingSomeone to use the transporter, go back in time and remove the snail.
How the fuck could Uchi not be able to come up with a sequel(prequel?) to VLR that would give closure to the series in the long time the game was cancelled?
>whole game is just an excuse for an old man to get some meddling kids motivated to make the world a better place
I feel like there's a scooby doo joke somewhere in the synopsis of ZTD

Hi Q
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_b1953pTz4&list=PLPB0nRwnmXgpYAiFTTsUDNHb6CEgmgQcw&index=45
>>343097025
Nope, too easy. Also it would break Zero's keikakuto be born and to create a team of espers working on avoiding a third world war.
And it is still a plothole, they should have askedMira about the killings the second they knew it was her.
So I went to FUCKING GAMESTOP today to pick up the game. Now there are 2 GSs in my town, and he said not just this store, but both only got 2 copies each and sold them through preorder already. I know it's not exactly the most popular series but I figure this wouldn't be an issue in current year.
Now what baffled me was the special edition (the watch one) was appearantly also in thier system. Now zi thought that was only available through Amazon. Did Gamestop get some too?
>>343097164
DELETE THISor at least spoiler it
make the others despair once they realize this themselves
>>343097593
The watch edition has been through gamestop for a while, but only those who signed for it back in april will recieve it.
Pic related.
>>343097440
>it would break Zero's keikaku
Wait a second, didn'tSean and Erick prison break Mira so they can stop her from committing murder by using the transporter? Doesn't this kill the baabies?
>>343097779
So then they won't send it to stores like a normal preorder stuff? Because if they possibly are I'll fucking call up all gamestops in the tricounty area.
>>343097593
Niche games through gamestop are always pre-order only. They'll get like 2-3 copies more then they ordered and its first come first serve.
I honestly don't get why people here shun gamestop for that, You in put down $5 of your total cost, and pay the rest up front on the day of the release, no different then buying it that day only it insures you get it.
>>343097913
>Sean and Erick prison break Mira so they can stop her from committing murder by using the transporter? Doesn't this kill the baabies?
They most likely failed to keepher younger self from touching heartsin this timeline
>>343098015
No. Example, I was told the watches are delayed (Which we all know). I'll be recieving a call from my local gamestop between now and july 15th when the watches come in, I show proof of my receipt signature and get my watch.
If its not signed, you won't get one. plain and simple.
>>343097270
why does nobody care about this? This was a series staple
>>343098137
But with mutliverse theory why wouldDelta from this timeline have to reenact the events that gave him birth? He doesn't need to make sure Sigma and Diana fug and make Phi and Delta because that already happened in this timeline.AND WHY THE FUCK WERE SIGMA, PHI AND DIANA THE ONLY ONES WITHOUT CORNY EPILOGUES, They're the ones I am the most curious about
>>3430984308 GORILLIAN
>>343097913The file only mentions them running away, they could have changed their minds or something did not work etc.
>>343098572
This bothered the hell out of me.
There are 6.6 billion people on earth as of 2015
Why is 8 billion suddenly a thing? I doubt we'll have another 1.4 billion people in 20 years, and even if we did, 6 billion is STILL 6 billion.
Why didnt he just say the terrorist would blow up earth or something? And even if he did, the Rhizome project was still in the works in 2030, so couldnt they just move to the moon?
>>343098572But that's also a chance, the terrorist is living on his own individual sets of conditions and branches that may or may not even let him exist. How do we even know the terrorist was born on the timeline everyone escapes alive?
KOOOOTAAAAAAAAARROOOOOOOOO
Game doesn't even look that bad on 3DS
>>343098817
except when particle effects have to happen.
downloaded it earlier
it looks like shit
guess I will just buy the vita version
>>343098817
it looks MUCH better on N3ds, I can atest to that much.
>>343098817
I enjoyed the gigantic blurry splotches for any type of graphic on anybody's clothing as well in my highly-detailed 240p resolution.
How bad is the 3DS version? Trying to decide whether to buy it on the Eshop so I can have the whole series on my DS or wait for the PC version.
>>343098903
If you care about visuals just wait for the PC version
>>343098903
>visuals matter in a puzzle game and visual novel
Lol okay. AAA baby
Why didBrotherbother sending Dio in VLR if he wanted ZTD to happen anyway?
>>343098903
Phi and Delta are Diana and Sigma's son
Delta is 100 years old and Brother
Delta is also Zero
>>343099060COMPLEX MOTIVES
>>343099060
to further make sure it does happen. hecan't shift, so he has absolutely no idea what happens int he future
>>343098770
>Rhizome project was still in the works in 2030
Not in theMUH 8 billiontimeline.They also failed to explain how the fuck a single terrorist could nuke the whole earth and kill everyone, while in theMUH 6 billiontimeline the nuclear catastrophe caused by Radical-6 only managed to kill 3/4.
can we all agree that D team had the best endings?
>>343099071Deltais ~124, not 100.
>>343099025
It looks like a 3DS game, you cant do much with a 240p screen.
The framerate during gameplay is fine, there are a few drops when particle effects are on screen. The worst one is whenthe bomb set up by the D-Team blows up, jesus it had like 2 fps.
>>343099060
because thats the timeline when Radical 6 broke out and the decision game was an obvious failure. he had to re-boot it, and since he can't SHIFT. he needed a way to get SHIFTers to go back to that point and get it right this time. Hence Akane going to his meeting.
>>343099060BOOTSTRAP PARADOXHe wants ZTD to happen so he needs VLR to happen so he needs ZTD to happen so...
Do I have to play the other titles to play this?
>>343099260
I would say so.
>>343099071
Phi and Delta are Diana and Sigma's son
Oh no.... CONJOINED TWINS!!
>>343089801It's actually you in the washing machine. She doesn't have enough quarters to put you in the dryer and has to go to work soon
>>343099071
also Phi from the past was a foster mother of Phi sent to 2008
>>343098034
It's not that. I just assume "why preorder a game I'll just buy in stores at the time, since I won't know if I'll need the money at the time?" I thought the watch edition was an Amazon exclusive, so I saw no benifite to preordering.
I guess I'm so used to getting mainstream games, I forget the stock they'll have on the obscure ones.
>>343099260
Yes, both of them were incredible
seeingdiana slowly go insanewas fun
>>343099905
You are aware a pre-order doesnt mean you HAVE to get it day 1 right? It'll last on that game as long as that game is in stock, could be 2 or 3 years.
>>343099260
I like C-1 the best.It's depressing, but at the same time absolutely hilarious how dumb Carlos is. Him just sitting there with that dumb look on his face when he realizes how he fucked up ends up way more funny than it should be because of the bad models.
>>343099071
>>343099625
>>343099470
Why bother with these shit out of context spoilers when telling him that Q is an old man off-screen and the kid is a robot called Sean is a much better way of ruining the game for him?
Hey, Akane, you're pretty hot.
>>343100582
>Oh right, ... the murders.
>>343100635
Carlos is Delta so hard holy shit.
>>343100938
Yes because Sigma and Diana will make a blonde baby.
Think logically, not your retarded head cannon.
>>343100582b-but he saved them...
and almost killed them while exploding the door
I fucking love Carlos
My copy still doesn't have an eta, thanks a lot amazon.
Is the steam version going to be available tonight to pirate in the meantime?
>>343100601
I think telling them that the reason VLR happens is because Diana and Phi come up with the idea to use an explosive to make a new exit and VLR wouldn't have happened if they didn't fucked it up.
>>343101682
Not till 10am tomorrow and thats assuming someone cracks it for you.
>>343101175

SHIFT into a different timeline and spare us your autistic shitfits.
Protip: Kill yourself to shift into a different timeline.
Could someone remake this withSeven and Jumpei bombing the "Free the Soul" HQ?
got a question about the game, for anyone who's already played it. I'm completely stuck, I've done everything except open Q team's "force quit box"
some googling says that I need to complete Q fragments "Who is Zero" and "Reality" but I don't have either of those available. How do you unlock these? It looks to me like I've done everything else in the game.

>>343102969
>Phi was named after herself, raised by herself, and the brooch has traveled between different versions of herselfMultiple timelines would suggest her name had a unique definite origin in one of them, we just don't get to see it. Since the transporter only makes a copy, there's not much of a paradox in having her 1904 version find and raise the timeshifted 2008 version since they are different people.
How the brooch and the music box survive entropy as they are sent through an infinite number of timelines though? I've got no clue.

>>343102849
It's 5 down, but what if I had to use the money I had saved up for something more important? Than they would sell the copy I had reserved because I took too long (they do this all the time) and also have 5 dollars from me. Now if I could get a discount on it anywhere else then I can't use it because I put down for Gamestop. Want to get my money back? Some Gamestops automatically convert your preorder down money into store credit in the system and refuse to give you that back, and there's not a thing I can do about it when the corporate doesn't listen to my complaints. I have experience with this.
>>343103879
Americans won WW2
You know how a lot of german scientists were brought over for space and rocket research
Well it's not far fetched to assume the Americans brought over the researchers of the transporter as well

>>343101963
bumping my old question
I've seriously tried everything and there are a few Q fragments that are still locked
>>343105578
and a 10% chance of failing too.
This scared the shit out of me because I chose the 5th locker first and all but the first locker opened. For a second I thought the game was assuming that I was going to pick the 1st locker and the 5th one was where the mask was. I stuck to the plan and it worked, thankfully.
>>343105689
Thanks, I feel that much more stupid
I am utterly shocked at how good the dub is for this game. There's not a single voice I cringed at. I went into it expecting to pick Japanese but the English is actually great.
>>343105796
Cool, will replay the game again with English voices when the Steam version comes out
>>343105738
I got stuck with not having Q fragments as well and it was because I hadn't unlocked all the execution scenes
If that doesn't work take a picture of your flow tree and post it
Heres a not shitty ending for you.
>>343105935

>It won't be an incredibly meta game where you CAN'T control Carlos as he lives his normal life, reasoning he refuses to let you play the game because every outcome is always unfavorable to him
>>343105969
jesus, you might as well have posted the chaika face
>>343106113
Ok you're stuck exactly how I was stuck
Just go back to any of the execution votes and pick the team you need the execution scene for
It's not RNG, the game just only shows one execution scene
>>343106113
vote as both teams against a single team
>>343099041
at least have some 3d
>>343106313
fucken radicool, thanks /v/
Okay, so...why was this called Zero Time Dilemma?
The fuck since when was Junpei such an edge lord meister of dakness
Just got an email from Amazon
>Great news,We now have delivery date for your item
>Your new estimated delivery date is: Wednesday, July 20, 2016 - Wednesday, July 27, 2016
>I'm a Prime member
Digital is it
>>343106665
Why is VLR called Virtue's last Reward?
>>343106682He'd seen some shit in the past year, the detective agency he worked for was underground and dealt with some fucked up shit
>>343097025Well, that's what Q team is gonna do.
think the wholedelta saying that stopping radical six brings you to a world where 8 billion people will dieis bullshit?
>>343106665
It would have been too big of a spoiler to call it Zero Kyle Zilemma.
>>343106665
>So what do you call this, Zero? Time Dilemma?
Did you miss the scene?
Also, is the captcha taking REALLY fucking long to load for anyone else?
When do the puzzles start
>>343107152
Whenever you want them to
>>343099260
Yes.
C1 is alright
Q1 is shit
Q2 is just a setup for another
D1 is great
D2 made Diana my waifu
And the True End was mediocre, but given that almost everything else had been explained at that point, it was fine, no use repeating stuff
>>343107393
>D2 made Diana my waifu
No, it made her Sigma's waifu. Back the fuck off.
WHEN DOES THE FUCKING STEAM VERSION UNLOCK?
>>343107541
tomorrow dufus
I don't feel the need to spoiler this, since it was in the gameplay footage, but feel free to spoiler the reply.
Do I need to incinerate phi, kill sigma, and free phi to complete the game? Those branch off into three different timelines, correct? Am I able to choose, or do these actually happen by random and I just have to keep trying?
>>343107584
FUCKING AMERICANS GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER
>>343107393
>D2 made Diana my waifu
You can't please her after she tasted the 18 inches.
>>343107587
if you know anything about this series you'd know you do all three regardless. just pick one to do first. doesn't matter.
>>343107587
Incinerate you cause deliberately
The blank/live rounds are RNG
>>343107541
Tomorrow at 12PM EST
>>343107515
Nah she's Oscar's waifu.
BLACK AND BLUE.
USED GOODS.
>>343107718
RNG?
>>343107797
It means it's an actual 50/50 chance
I killed sigma three times before I actually got a blank round
>>343107797
>Random number generator
There is no real random in machines. The easiest is to do someting like the current time with like 20 places behind the period.
>>343107918
I got 3 blanks before a live one, I was beginning to think I was doing something wrong.
>>343106665
because there's no dilemma
unless you countswapping your counciousness with you from a different timeline and sending it to a certain deathit did not work for me, the last "shift or don't" choice was pretty weak
>>343107587
you basically have to explore every possible outcome, I dont have any concrete examples, but doing so unlocks more rooms
>>343108175It was not 'weak' it was downright retarded. The main characters of team C do that the whole time and gave no fuck.
They made a nuclear reactor explode to get angsty enought to do it only to swap.
They used other versions of themselves to EAT BULLETS.
If anything nobody really gave a fuck in any way.
Can I play this game without VLR? or are there Spoilers for VLR?
I'm stuck right now, I don't know what the fuck I should do.
I got all my fragments completed, except those who I don't know the answer. I discovered Q's name and got the number, but I don't know where I should imput it.
My unanswered questions are:
Who killed Mira?
The fourth path of the crossbow shooting (I typed Sean, but I get error)
The door of truth
Al three boxes of the force exit.
I tried using Q's combination on the quantum computer and on the truth door, and I still get nothing.
>>343108587
there are major VLR spoilers in there
>>343108659let the timer count to 0 on "Who killed mira"
>>343108659Who killed Mira?
"dont know" or let timer run out.
You can now finish the game if you have all executions unlocked. Have fun.
>>343108472Yeah, I don't know how it was even a choice after Carlos's SHIFTing Adventures.
>>343108472oh yeah, I forgot about the reactor part
yeah, it was super retarded, don't know why even there's a choice at the end
>>343108754
>>343108795
thanks guys
>>343108817
>>343109015The best part about the reactor was: Akane explains right before what happens with the old selves (with the back to the future plot)
and junpei is like
>poor M2.
EAT SHIT FAGGOT YOU MADE J233 EAT BULLETS
>>343109253J233 deserved it
It should be illegal for them to play Blue Bird Lamentation or Morphogentic Sorrow.
It makes me unreasonably sad.
>>343107742
Bitch you take that back
YOU FUCKING TAKE THAT BACK
As always, /v/ was exaggerating.
Game is amazing and clears up most of the mysteries left from VLR, plus tells us how most of the 999 cast is doing.
Where was Kyle though, was he Gab, the dog?
>>343110907
Yep. Zero Kyle Dilemma was amazing with all the dropped and ignored concepts, and outright lies, overall.:-)
>>343110907
>Game is amazing
I really likedALIEN TECHNOLOGY and MIND HACKING. Such a great device to make everything work out.
>>343111116
What ignored concepts?
[?] (Blick Winkel) was the player, not a 4D being, Uchi even confirmed it on twitter.
He also promised to tell us what happened to the 999 cast, and he did tell us for the most part.
The only missing answers are where Kyle is and what happened to Clover/Alice.
>>343111393
THE DOCTOR WOULD NEVER LEAVE KYLE BEHIND
WAIT SHIT HE DID
>>343111393
Pic related, for one.
There were also many other things unexplained from VLR, like the lion motifs.Not like it matters. Nobody who has ever asked "Why do you dislike the game?" accepted any opinion or perspective but their own regardless.
>mfw typed "Q" forWho killed Mira
>That's clearly impossible
>>343111609
So good
>>343111530
Yes, and I said right there that it was one of the few missing things.
But somehow faggots like you use this single fact to shitpost the whole game.
>>343111672
Nah I'm just amused by the fact that Akane was trying to make a point, and it was just ignored in ZTD.
>>343111393
>[?] (Blick Winkel) was the player, not a 4D being
Well, the player is a 4D being to them. We even forced Kyle consciousness to 2028.
>The only missing answers are where Kyle is and what happened to Clover/Alice.
Kyle and ? were teased as such huge parts of ZTD. They likely dropped one of them and therefore had to drop the other as well.
>>343111565
Brother was completely retconned, but we do get told when did he arrive back in time. I guess Left is pretty much the only missing answer from his story.
We do get told what happened with Ace and most of the 999 cast.
Snake absence isn't that huge, but I guess he did lie about his future being revealed in ZE3.
>>343111950
Only Kyle was teased to be important, [?]'s role was pretty much stated to be playing the game.
I don't care that much about Phi but man, I can't stop staring at her legs
>>343112354
And thoseD-cups, am I right?
>>343112354
Call her... Boss Phi.
>>343112354MeganePhi is the best girl in the whole series, anon.
>>343112191
>[?]'s role was pretty much stated to be playing the game.
Yeah and he could have pulled another Ever17 on us, which I would have really liked. The concept of the player being some kind of outside entity in the game's world blew my mind back when I played it. Instead we gotayy lmaosand retconnedBrother.
As of now that whole 30 minute epilogue in VLR was just a stupid way to say "thx for playing, pls buy sequel". It's just one of the things that left a bitter taste in my mouth after finishing the game.
Blick-Winkel here, I was thinking of moving the stream up one week to next week's Friday, so that'd be the 8th.
Anyone against it?
>>343112610
she will never replace 999 Clover, but she's okay.
I like her more in a daughteru way, even with those shorts.
So I just finished VLR, Assuming I'm not missing anything obvious, do i have this right?
>>343113461
Man that's just not cool
>>343112856
Maybe you shouldn't have expected Ever17 2, as VLR's epilogue was pretty clear about [?] just being the player beating ZE3.
Now, I don't think that was VLR's epilogue full purpose, as something must've happened to Kyle, but we'll never know because he actually was dropped from the plot (unlike [?] which I do think was never intended to be part of the plot).
Theretconned brother was pretty good, better than generic evil overlord with a cult.But I did dislikethe aliens.
>>343113461
Good one
Yes you have everything right
>>343113461
>Uchi is a hack
go back to shitposting elsewhere please
>>343113461The last part should be flashing just saying. But I still hope you don't actually spoil someone, that shit is whack.
Was the only good thing to come out of ZTD the musicand carlos?
>>343113907
No, the game is good, people just had way too high expectations (like the bunch that was expecting Ever17 2).
>>343107918
I got two blanks in a row.
>>343108175
That was, like, easily the least dilemma out of them all. I still can't believe they actually took that"BUT YOU'LL BE KILLING YOURSELF IN ANOTHER TIMELINE! IT'S LITERALLY RA- I MEAN MURDER"!
Like, so fucking what.
This happened to me once in VLR but basically I didn't have a password when I first encountered the scenaro, now I can't find the fucking scenario where it asks for the password.
Can anyone point out to me which section asks for theQ Helmet code
I have the code now and can't find the bloody scenario. I went through all the Trees and still can't find it.
notice how everyone that saying the game is bad is also shitposting
>>343114576The one where Eric shoots Carlos. It is the branch where team C has the 1v1 battle between Carlos and Akane.
>>343114576
The one where Eric is pointing his shotgun in the transporter room
And in Team-Q's force quit box
Does someone have the full version of this, with the three games?
>>343114486
I would not mind that dilemma but it's kinda useless whenhalf of C-Team scenes is them doing that.
>>343113546
>Maybe you shouldn't have expected Ever17 2, as VLR's epilogue was pretty clear about [?] just being the player beating ZE3.
Well I see that now, but with how many things he's already recycled in the previous games it wasn't as far fetched as you made it sound to be. I would have been perfectly OK without BW if the last third of the game didn't shit the bed as hard as it did. The first 2/3rds are really great. But afterALIENSit kinda went downhillexcept D2 ending
>The retconned brother was pretty good, better than generic evil overlord with a cult.
NewBrotheris basicallythe previous two Zeros combined. Same motivation and all. The evil overlord with a cult would have been something new in this series(SHIFTer vs SHIFTer action), but instead we gotthe mastermind is actually a good guy again and is training you to save 8 billion people
so, are the thingsZero says about Diana in the part after pressing the yellow buttontrue? If notwhy would he say that?
>>343114896
I like to think "?" was the force that make Diana and Carlos have "hand slips" sometimes.
>>343115008
nope,mind hacking
>>343115008
No that was explained withDelta MIND HACKing them.
>>343114778
Does it even exist?
>>343115085
>>343115104
Oh yes, the 4th mexican standoff ending was there specifically to remind you thatthe player character is for the most part Delta
>>343115118
There is atleast one for VLR, dunno about ZTD.
>>343115118
Yes, he did the three games, but I forgot to save the ZTD one
>>343115245
>Winkle
IT'S WINKEL, NOT WINKLEree
>>343114921We have no way of knowing if it's the truth or not, it's likely there to make both you and Diana doubt your entire course of action.Especially with Zero being dead in that timeline, it's unlikely he's mind hacking her and reading her thoughts. However, he does foreshadow his meeting with her in Q-End 2.
>>343115632
It doesn't even matter anymore.
Wait, is it really out?
>>343115791
Yes, out on Vita/3DS now. Steam version unlocks in about 18 hours.
>>343115680
I never understood the"dead in that timeline".
Did this guy really blow himself up because it was so in the rules? What a fucking madman, he could have just walked out and declare himself dead.
>>343115765
I know. I'm only being pedantic about it.
>>343116029Keep playingJust ask yourself is the boy really the one named "Q"? Does anyone call HIM that?
>>343116029
He does state multiple timesThe lives of you, me, and the human race, hang in the balance.
>>343116195
Dude I finished the game 2 days ago.
>>343116328fucking madman
>>343116487My favourite thing after replaying the game has been noticing Delta's shadow in almost every Q-Team scene. The only one I didn't see it in is Q-End 1 when Mira and Sean escape, but it's present everywhere else, though I may have missed it. Also, this paired with the subtle hints in every other team when they talk about Q being executed.
Also noticing how each time Sean dies, Delta is usually also killed as well so that we get the Q death announcement. Shooting Mira at the 3-Way Standoff really makes that apparent when the Casualty announcement says Q and Eric are dead, but Sean is still 'alive' enough to utter Mira before he 'dies'.
Reading the tips, seems Carlos wants a threesome with Junpei and Akane.
>>343117359
No way, he's only got eyes for his dear imouto.
>>343110907
>As always, /v/ was exaggerating.
ANCIENT
ALIENS
>>343111393
>?] (Blick Winkel) was the player, not a 4D being
You dummy, the player IS a 4D being.
What do you think the save/load function does?
>>343117258Yeah but look at what a fucking madman this guy is. He goes into the shower room to drop acid on himself. He puts on the explosive collar, probably thinking "well the rules are the rules, got to do this".
WHY NOT JUST WALK OUT AND PRETEND YOU ARE DEAD
Too complex 4 me
>>343117613
>>343117258Hey did you see delta in the VLR ending? If you have checked? Did he really sit next to the door of a fucking bomb too just to follow his his way of dealing with rule breakers?
>>343117821Q is never mentioned being dead in VLR endingSigma without arms shouldn't have been as funny as it was
>>343117980Okay so: This guy puts on a collar to let his head explode, let acid drop on his body but refuses to sit next to bomb.
Well I guess he had to survive to send Dio, but man, this guy is whack. He doesnt even leat himself be killed by ALL his stupid rules, only 2 out of 3.
>>343118264
Man, I am really sad not a single mention of the Schrödinger's Cat was in this game. I really miss using that as an universal explanation to anything in 999 and VLR.
WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO KYLE
WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO [?]
WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO CLOVER AND ALICE
UCHI YOUmindHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK
>>343118453Bootstrap Paradoxis all you need.
>>343117613Also paired with the fact that he cannot SHIFT, so he is truly dying in each of those timelines. Pair this with the fact that he always abides by his rules.
>>343117821
>>343118264There's no Casualty announcement this time, so we don't get clarification if he's dead. I'd definitely he's alive, because this time he says that he will break the rules as a result of them using the bomb. He's always stuck to his rules in every timeline and died as a result, but this time he does state that he will be breaking them so probably chooses to live in this timeline.
>>343118589He must be alive because he sends Dio in that timeline.
>>343118546
You just made me realize Phi's brooch has no origin.
Guys if you have amazon prime and the game isn't even shipped yet be persistent and tell them that with prime there's free release date delivery when you pre order games.
I got a 10 dollar refund
>>343118802That's also true, and also a big indication of him not blowing himself up. Ties things up neatly for VLR.
>>343117980>Sigma without arms shouldn't have been as funny as it was
It's those fucking models man and the way he just strolls back like nothing happened,
>>343119017This also means that guy is 126 during ZTD + 45 years til VLR: 171 years old.
Probably mindhack anti aging.
>>343119217Wasn't he surprisingly calm about it too the whole time? Saying something like 'welp now I know what caused that timeline!'
>>343119217
Like "Dang, not again".
>>343119278
Mindhack starts to sound more and more like magic to me.
>>343119330
>>343119335
"I saw that one coming a mile away"btw what kind of explosion can rip both of arms, but not damage the torso? maybe he had really long arms?
>>343119278Man over 120 years old and not even spondyloarthritis.
>>343086507
Any word on how the PC version is/what it will be? Does it included 999/VLR?
The zero reveal was less impactful this game i think
>>343119732
>what kind of explosion can rip both of arms, but not damage the torso?
Don't forget the randomshard of glass in his eye, but not anywhere else
I am pretty sure Uchikoshi didn't thought about it since ZE3 got canned at first and he just wrote himself into a corner.I just realize that, in the very timeline in which Phi is born, Phi is also burnt in the incinerator by Diana.
>>343120003
>Does it included 999/VLR?
Not even released on steam yet. Just teasered on twitter.
No matter what I do I can't fucking do the control room puzzle. YES I LOOKED AND THE WALL WITH THE DUCT TAPES
>>343120112Combine the glasses with X
>>343120040>I just realize that, in the very timeline in which Phi is born, Phi is also burnt in the incinerator by Diana.
It's okay, we have spares
>>343120228its more of an issue of turning the Canisters? in the wall into the right combination to even get the fucking batteries
>>343120472
check
>>343086745
>>343120112
>>343120472
I don't understand what exactly are you missing in the Control Room. That one is very smooth.
What you done already?
>>343119732usually its the shockwave from the bomb that does all the damage, i assume he was at the door when it blew up and just sent crap in the room flying around that took off his arms, while sending him into the door - and the shard of glass in his eye is from the eye-level window thats on every door
So, what's your the most memorable moment so far? For me...
>Diana's crying in front of the time machine
>Fucking Blue Bird Lamentation kicks in
>fuck.jpg
>Sigma shows up and start talking, music building up
It was fucking strong scene imo. Probably my fav.
>>343120040
does that make her a phoenix? that's pretty cool actually
>>343120939
The entirety of thebaby ending
>>343120939
The story of M and M2. Poor M2.
SIX BILLION, CARLOS!
>>343121229
i wasn't expecting that to be 45 minutes of nonstop talking.
>>343121337
Man, FUCK M2. He was a complete loser.
>>343120939The scene were Phi gets burned and we see the flashback.
Phi sitting lonely in the corner and looking at her mothers brooch. Diana coming in and it all ending in a big hug. The whole conversation and the hug mean way more if you actually know that she is her mother. Watch this scene again with the knowledge you now have, it adds much to it.
>>343121442
but they were fucking sweet. My only problem was how the last, like, third of the game is just story and no puzzles.
>>343121337
M2 had it coming.
>>343121420
I'm sure he was only thinking of Maria in that moment.
>>343121496
He's the true victim of ZTD. He did nothing and now he's either dead or stuck in a shit future.
>>343099025
If you plan on playing this while outside I would say the 3DS version didn't turn out bad at all so far. The fucking trailer Spike Chunsoft made looked terrible though, I don't know how fucked there capture card is but the game looked like shit in the trailer. It's actually really turned out pretty nice.
>>343121584
yeah the game is basically a movie at this point for me
When you think about it, the incinerator game is pretty fucked upEither risk to shoot the father of your daughter or let said daughter burn. Also, said daughter needs to burn to exist.
>>343121597
Maybe M2 will man up once he doesnt have a silver spoon shoved in his ass. If it was enough for M, M2 can deal with it too.
So in the endingCarlos shoots Delta right? We see the world from his POV and the credits cut abruptly because he is dead and can't see anything more right?It might be a headcanon, but it seems like what he was going for, and I think it improves the ending a tad
>>343121809
So M2 will change the future again and will change places with M3. And then M3 with M4.
>>343121849Why would he shoot him? He did nothing wrong. That is like going to the timeline where Hitler has become the most famous artist and shooting him.
>>343121597
>>343121809
Thing is that M1's story is about going to the past and land in a better future
M2's story is about finding himself in a rotten future, and fixing his family in that history.
Just got past the point where every team first votes.
I can already tell I'm going to hate anything to do with Q team. Q sounds like shit and Eric's a shitter. Too bad best girl is on that team.
>>343121849>good goy carlos shooting anyone
>>343122001
>implying M2 does anything worthwhile
>>343122237
Q team has 4 people, actually.
>>343122001I dunno. If I was in a timeline where Hitler killed 6 billion, I may still kill him in the good one
>>343086507

>>343122237

Oh boy, you're in for a ride
>>343122378
Why?
>>343122237
>too bad best girl is on that team
Eh, she's alright. Though, there are some scenes and interactions with Eric and Mira that really touched my heart
>>343122237
>best girl in Q team
>not the D team
Q team has best boy and bestmurderer
>>343122237
>bad best girl
>Mira
thinking with your dick is exactly the reason why Eric is a shitter, you know?
>>343122342was he with q team the entire time? i'm surprised eric never would have mentioned him even once during all the different events they went through.
I miss the VN style
>>343122663You can see his shadow in almost every scene for Q-Team where he's not dead.
>>343122663Eric mentions him a couple of times. You'll see if you replay the scenes. It's like the Sigma is old as fuck twist, you realized that they told you when you replay the game.
>>343122237
I actually did Q team first. I thought I would hate it, but it wasn't so bad.Sean's voice was insanely cute fuck man I'm in love with a young boy's voice
>>343122713
I enjoy more than 4 poses and 4 animationsI miss Sugimori's sprites
>>343122663He does mention him, even several times. The camera always pins to the dog making you think they talking about him. Watch it again if you like.
>>343122663Well they all did think he was blind/mute/deaf/paralyzed
They weren't even that discreet about the foreshadowing. I feel dumb for not having noticed that something was up.
https://a.pomf.cat/aucdos.mp4
I humbly request any drawfags in this thread to drawSigma wearing the bucket on his headalso Sean stripping
I need my shota fix, dammit
>>343122842
>>343122797
>>343122784
...well played uchikoshi
>>343122713
It's not so bad. Some twists wouldn't have been possible with the VN style. Although I do miss reading the character's thoughts during cut scenes.
why wassean advertised as being named Q
>>343122923
tfw never get to seeSean's face
>>343119278he probably used the transporter
>>343120614
>>343120648The fuckign reflector puzzle. no matter what I do it seems that the game says I'm wrong
>>343123080
So the twist could exist, anon.
What does "number cleared" mean on the flow section?
>>343122984
>miss reading the character's thoughts during cut scenes
They do that once with Carlos whenAkane goes full yandere
>>343122910so wait, they only announced Q, Mira, and Eric are dead
but they assume all of Q team was killed by the vote when it doesn't mention Sean being dead at all? what's up with that?
>>343123080To set you up for the twist. If they just called him Sean or ???, you would instantly know something is up whenever someone talks about Q.It's just like Sigma being shown as 23 in all promotional materials in VLR.
>>343090602
When you push a yellow button to shower the others. Be sure to get the animation for each team being rekt

>>343119278It has nothing to do with mindhacking. You are forgetting that Phi is 60+ years old in VLR
>>343123267
BecauseSean isn't Q, anon.
How the fuck do you do the Heart Puzzle in the Rec Room?
>>343086507
is 999 coming to vita? i read somewhere here that it was coming both to vita and pc
>>343122951
alsoeric:"Tell me, tell me who killed mira. You have 20 seconds. 19. 18."
if you wrote 'me' he says
"I KNEW IT WAS YOU ALL ALONG"
but if you say 'Q' he says
"THAT'S CLEARLY IMPOSSIBLE"
>>343123267Sean isn't an official part of Q-Team. Zero even tells them directly that there are only 3 people in the team. That's why Eric is so paranoid.
>>343123267They didn't know that Sean even existed.
My pre order copy is now on backorder status.
3 more weeks for order to be completed.
Plus 2 months till it gets to my country.
>>343123267I think they first meet sean before the coin toss, they get amnesia'd and after that only the Q team knows about him
>>343123130
It was just about making sure Yellow stopped being a bitch and then moving everything else around it
>>343123267
Nobody knewabout Sean, man
Passwords for Q:Age, Eye, Self
>>343123439
>>343123328
>>343123267Sean also only ever dies in one route. his "complete death"
>People complaining about the 3D models and stiff animations
Thats the point. Do you not notice how unhuman and machine like the camera's movement are? It pans left right and up down, never diagonal or circular. Because you're looking through a camera For C and D. Only Q has more fluid human movement.
That can't be achieved with sprites.
Ok I'm nowhere near done with finishing but how do you guys rate the game compared to the other 2?
So far I think it's the weakest. It spends too much time explaining the plot VLR.
>>343123267Sean isn't part of Q-Team, he's just tagging along. Whenever Sean dies and Q is announced to be dead, he's also been killed in some way.
Check the 3-Way Standoff outcome for shooting Mira. She fires two shots. The casualty announcement happens mentioning Q and Eric's deaths, but Sean is still 'alive' enough to say 'Mira...' before he 'dies'.
Also check the 3-Way Standoff outcome for shooting nobody, when Eric shoots the grenade, you can see Delta's shadow, and in the explosion's aftermath, you also see smoke coming from behind the desk where Delta's body is.
>>343123469
Just pirate it while you're waiting. I mean, you've already paid for it so there's not even anything unethical about doing it.
In the rec roomJAM - ODDS + SADMAN = ???
I have jam (100) and sadman (570) but what is "odds"
>>343123516
They didn't knowwho Sean was before the coin toss. Gowatch Payoff 1again.Mira brings up the question, asking who the kid is.
>>343123405
and during the3 way standoff, if you input Q, it says to type his real name but if you put in Sean, it says error. typing me says you cant suicide. on that note though, why are they aiming at sean if they need to kill Q for the x pass?
>>343123579
I liked it more than VLR but less than 999
>>343123524
I thought Eye was refering to the Third eye at first, so I thought sean was BW.
>>343088675
I honestly can't tell if you liked or disliked the ending
>>343122951also try shooting "Q" in the 3-way standoff
>>343123617Check the slot machine
>thePhireveal
I knew it could only end badly once theyintroduced physical time travel
>>343123469
the eshop exists. unless you got the watch copy then you're gonna be in for a wait since a lot of the watches were damaged and they're taking their time replacing them.
>>343123516They don't meet Sean before the coin toss. Go check the opening scene again. All teams are in different cells and they can't see into each other's cells.
Passwords that I wrote down for:
Carlos>Shift, Fight, Save, Fire, Dream
Junpei>Ring, Five, Jump, Quark, Doll
Akane:>Six, Crash, Key
>>343123631
this is what threw me off the first time but i didn't pay too much attention to it before either wayi knew delta was zero as soon as i got the baby ending just didn't expect him to actually be tagging along
>>343123604
holy shit, i counted that and was so confused but ultimately just forgot about it until you mentioned it/after the twist that explains it
>>343123618
I meant before as in just before,he wasnt part of dcom experiment
>>343123668
Disliked. If I liked the ending, I'd be one of those people making empty posts quoting nobody talking about how anyone who didn't like the game is a shitposter and attaching a list of personal insults to support my belief.
So, wait. What's the difference between shifting and jumping?
the number i thought was for the q force quit box was for something else so i have no idea what the actual code is.
Fucking vita version crashing on new game for me. Anyone help?
>>343123880
Well yeah,Seanwas not.
>>343123701
I love pixel hunts.What do I do with my answer?
PLOTHOLE ALERT
>Three way Standoff
>Eric Mira and Sean all about to shoot each other
>Because they need one more X-pass
BUT eric and mira know fully well Sean won't give them an X-pass. So why threaten him in the first place? Why not just kill the old blind/deaf man who would never see it coming and escape?
Sean cant give an X-pass, so why even consider him?
>>343123953
That's because you haven't been told it yet. Keep playing.
>>343123971
Did you download it from PSN? The file could be corrupted and you might have to redownload it. If it's a physical copy, then I dunno
>>343123941
Nothing, SHIFT is the proper term for the timeline jumping phenomenon.
>>343123953
Let the time run out whenEric's going to shoot youand you'll get the code.
>>343124052
>BUT eric and mira know fully well Sean won't give them an X-pass.
Why would they know this?
>>343124019
It says the odds if you touche the top.
>>343123953
when you look at the global flowchart you see the 4 nodes off by themselves? 4 for everyone lioves and 3 for each team being executed? you need all of those filled out before you get all the force quit codes
so go back and redo your execution votes
>/v/ suddenly hates ZTD
stop
>>343124163
Because Sean isnt on the board. He's not a player in the game.
>>343124052
All the note said was 'Kill One'.
>>343124173
already have them
>>343124052Palpatine, I mean Delta, was controling them with the force, I mean mindhack.

>>343124168
Yeah, I got it. I was asking what to do withanswer to the equationbut I figured that out, too. Thank you!
>>343124082
Yeah psn last night. Was slow and stuttery dl. Also 980mb ish seems small?
>>343124241
Yeah, One. Not One Robot.
>>343124052also, who the hell uses a grenade launcher at such a close range? Eric is the second biggest dumbass after Carlos.
>>343124253
Thanks for that, Anon.
>>343124315
File size is 987 MB. But yeah, you'll probably have to redownload it. This happens a lot to me for digital vita games.
>>343124327How do they know Sean is a robot? All they know, he's some damn brat who has a helmet he can't take off. He only knows that he's a robot in Q-End 1.
>>343123631
>why are they aiming at sean if they need to kill Q for the x pass?
Well, it's not likeQ has a weapon or could even use one on them as far as they know. Sean had a crossbow and wasn't seemingly a vegetable.
>>343124052Sean was pointing a fucking crossbow at them.
also this >>343124241
VLR > ZTD > 999
Team 18 inches > Team full edge > Team Sean
>>343124493
Strange. With 2 spoken languages and all. Ok first time ive had this issue and i digital all my games.
>>343124226
I don't think they have enough time to think about it in the rush of the moment, when Zero tells them to kill one person. As far as they know, the kid is also playing the game, he has the bracelet and is being treated the same way as other players.
>>343124226
Well his picture was included in the study portraits to throw them off, plus the player name isn't displayed on the lounge board until they're dead, so they wouldn't have not seen him on the board yet in that timeline.
I'm guessing at the time, none of them actually knew which 3 were actually on the team and which one wasn't
>>343124567
it doesnt change the fact that killing Sean would do nothing. No X-pass would be revealed.
>>343124371
>after Carlos
Carlos was pretty fucking based tbqh.
>>343124136
that's for something else though. if you're talking about the note.
>>343124648
They did not know that.
The note just said Kill One.
For all they know, killing the kid could let them escape.
I mentioned the crossbow because if someone has a weapon pointed at you and is ready to kill you, aren't you going to point one fucking back?
>>343124648
Shan had Mira at gunpoint.from the position and radius of the grenade, chances are Delta dies from the explosion that kills Q
>>343124371They used it once in the puzzle, so Eric already knows about its range and explosive power.
Carlos > Sigma > Junpei > Q > Diana > Akane > Phi > Eric > Mira
PRESS X FOR SEAN/DELTA
SEAAAAAAAAAAAAN

>>343124938

I agree 100%
>>343123791
Why does junpei get doll?
>>343125257jumpydoll
>>343125257
Did you play 999?
>>343125257
The doll he gave Akane
>>343124938
swap Junpei and Diana and that's also my list
>>343124938
But where isSean?I feel like Phi was entirely underutilized in this game, and I was really disappointed because the whole twist abouther birth only existed so Delta could exist. It didn't affect her at all
>>343125316
>>343125327
not since it came out on ds, i completely forgot about that
Kyle going to back to the past was dropped?
What the fuck
sigma being phi's dad just makes all the perverted banter between them even funnier
>>343125434Q there is Sean
>>343125513
No, pay attention.
>>343125434
I don't think Phi was underutilized, as much as everything important happened either in the specific timeline where Phi got burnt or in timelines where the D team was dead.
C team also stole a lot of limelight.
>>343125573
Yeah I just realized that this morningSigma begging Phi for swimsuit action in VLR is fuckin weird now
I ran out of fragments and now the D-team door of truth is asking me for a password but I don't recall even being given a password, or passwords for ANY force quit box. No new fragments and a fuckload of locks everywhere.
How's thePunchlinegame?
>>343125671
>pay attention
No, he was completely dropped. Kyle isn't in the game at all.
>>>343124938
Kyle =/= [?]/BW
>>343125937
Nobody ever said that he would be in the game. Think carefully, who did Kyle swap minds with in the end of VLR.
>>343125513
A lot of things were dropped and ignored. We were lied to because ofcomplex motives:-)
>>343125573
Sigma X Phi is Canon
>>343125840
Learn nip and let us know, anon.
>>343126026
You mean swapped bodies and Akane is explanation to where he is was so vague that he could be in anyone's body. Also, pic related, his being Sigma's.And no, Kyle is not the player
So what the fuck then. Was Delta just fucking chilling on Q team the whole game and nobody mentioned it?
>>343126392
"""IN A MANNER OF SPEAKING"""
>>343126541
Not him but why do you and others who post this never add the "right now" bit while only quoting the "in a manner of speaking" segment?
>>343126541
>>343126392So if "?" at the end of VLR is the player...
and we swapped with Kyle...
that means the one playing the game on the 3DS is Kyle right?Are we mindhacked by Kyle?
>beat the game today
>amazon sends me an email right after asking to approve a shipping delay without listing a new date
I would be seriously mad about this if my 3DS wasn't hacked. I still want my watch though.
>>343126532
They did mention it.
Several times.
>>343126541
what does this mean though (not even joking, english isn't my first language)?
Is she saying that he is but not really? i really don't get it...
Was FBR even real?
>>343126541
""" RIGHT NOW - IN A MANNER OF SPEAKING""" meaning right now is not 2028. You know how stupid that sentence would sound like without "in a manner of speaking"?
>>343126648
Because why interpret it one way, when the other wayKyle is the player and watches his daddy forget about you and have a real son :^)
>arbitrary random locks that don't even tell you what to do
Who designed this fucking shit?
>>343127174
She doesn't literally mean "right now" because they're in the future, but, you know, "in a manner of speaking", "right now" he has arrived.
>>343127174
the 'in a manner of speaking' just means she acknowledges the irony of saying right now he is in a different time.
it just means right now - our right now- he is in a different 'now'
>>343127214B-but the doctor wouldn't abandon his son!I hate how shitposters will blindly defend all the dropped concepts, including Kyle.
Hey I just want to say that I just bought the first two in this series and you should all spoiler the fuck out of this post but I'll be gone before I see it

>>343127442
It's better to reason out a way that it wasn't dropped, although it's probably what happened. We need toASK UCHI
>>343127442
They could at least shitpost with some funny theories, likeKyle being Gab who finally got to be with a proper family for 10 monthsorAdolf SHIFTler telling Delta about the terrorists, forgetting to mention that hey are jewish
>>343125830
anyone?
there's nothing else I can do. I have only gotten D end 1 and Q end 1
>>343127887
>It's better to reason out a way that it wasn't dropped
Why? Not like it was the only dropped/ignored thing in the game. I fully expect most 'hard' questions to be ignored in the Q&A.

on the global flowchart those 4 nodes for the executions - are the all coloured in?
I had to go back and redo the voting even though i picked every option to unlock some fragments
Is there a point to the ending where they get to free if they got the coin toss right?
Remember that Brooch Phi had in VLR well...it has no significance since its existence is only possible because of the events in this game

>>343128196
Uchikoshi said something about people who like to reach a goal in the shortest route. The point was that you could beat the game without playing it, but it's not the same as beating the game after playing it.

Pretty bad.
You cannot skip through segments you haven't watched, nor you can press A in quick succession like I did with VLR when I lost some progress due to a 3DS Crash.
I lost some progress in the beginning here as well while trying to get the executions since my 3DS crashed, and I have to leave my system idling for like two hours just to get to the same place, with a few inputs here and there.
Just stick to a single version.

there's an option in options to put a skip button

You choose, red pill or blue pill?
>>343129045That's the point, they never utter his name until the tweest happens because tweest from their POV it changes fuck all, even Sigma seeing his own reflection had actual reprecussions of fucking everything up

Yeah. Twists for twists sake is sooooo much better than what we got. You may not have liked the ending, but it was always where the series was heading. Each game is for the most part self contained, and that wasn't going to change in this one
