Life is simply unfair

I REPEAT
YOU WILL NEVER
LET BIRDS POOP ON PHI'S ASS
>>343772125
That one was raised in America so she is American
And this semen demon?
Why'd he do it?
>>343772551
Some snails just want to watch the world burn.
>>343772551
A parasite made him do it
I'm going to try to shift into another timeline, will post results in a few minutes.
So why did the Germanstransport Phi from 1904 to 2008, exactly? Did they also transport Delta while they were at it?
ZTD is my GOTYI really liked the game, 9/10 for me
>Carlos realizing Akane isn't the hottest girl in the bomb shelter
>>343772513
>wanting to fuck a literal autist
>>343772620
To test the machine, they probably touched random buttons and were like "We scientist"
>>343772691
I'd fuck an autist if she looked like that
Fuck, these threads are becoming generals,with exact same post in every thread and exact same images over and over
I'm posting this in every thread until you push the button.
Is COMPLEX MOTIVEMAN the new Skullface?
I want to fuck phi
>>343772630
I loved it despite its flaws. Maybe we didn't get exactly what we wanted but life is simply unfair.
>>343772859
Don't we all. Whoever designed her ZTD outfit was really lookin' out for us.
>>343772778
Life is truly unfair, don't you think?
>>343772787
>this picture
Anon my sides
>>343772852
Did he even have a line as ridiculously delivered as as Such for a lust for revenge? Whooooo
Why did Mira and Phi go into the test site dressed like that?
Were they going to test how to populate mars?
>>343772947
>tfw you'll never stick your 18-incher between phi's thighs and hug her

>MY MOTIVES ARE..... COMPLEX
>>343772852
Skull Face had a good plan and was a good guy tho
>>343772778
The game's still fairly new so there's quite a bit to talk about.
Though I agree that posters who repeat themselves every thread might need to cool it a bit.
>>343773071
no. Just some silly things about him.
>>343773172
>implying complex man isn't
>>343772787
I want to fuck Sean's voice.
It's so feminine and raspy, it's a shame he got that voice and not some qt girl.
>>343773140
Jeez dad, that's embarrassing!
>>343772681
how can one outfit be so sexy?
it's not allowed
I don't know who Mira's VA is, but her voice makes my dick diamonds. She has a literal sex voice.
I played through the game in Japanese because I'm a weeb
Did I miss any cringeworthy/notable line deliveries?
>>343773309
>Sean's voice is more feminine than Maria's is during the one point where she accesses the morphogenic field and talks to Carlos
>>343773318

>come up with a plan to destroy the english language and thus the USA which was just a Cypher puppet at that point and sell everyone fake nukes that can only be used if he wanted to
there would have been no nuclear disaster and war in a Skull Face timeline and the terrorist would have been killed considering everyone speak english in Uchi games
>post your face when ring scene
>>343773468
All of Junpei and Eric's lines
They're significantly better in Japanese
Alright, just finished the game. Time for questions:
1. Where the fuck was Kyle? Where was Blick Winkel?
2. Where was Left?
3. Where was Snake?
4. Actually, where the fuck were all the other characters from 999 and VLR anyway? Is there really nothing more than ''Aoi was assisting Akane at Crash Keys''?
5. Is it explained why Snake wears the Free the Soul robe in 999 and why Akane wears it at the end of VLR?
6. What's the deal with Lord Gordain and All-Ice? Is that even explained?
7. What was the point of Mira, a serial killer, being in the game and why didn't she get any drugs injected?
8. Since when can SHIFTers suddenly jump to specific other timelines on command? In the other games it didn't seemed like it was possible, and it only happened after dying anyway, not while still being alive.
Thanks in advance for answering.
>>343773594
I actually thought Junpei's VA was one of the better ones, I loved the delivery on the nipple line.
>>343773468
Junpei and Brother kill it in english. Wonderfully hammy and over the top.
Mira is sexy as fuck in english too. I ended up really liking both dubs.
>>343773586
I liked it but the family scenes between Diana and Phi, and Sean's Happy End hit me harder.
>>343772691
Are you saying all autists are sociopaths like Mira?Given how /v/ is, you're probably right.
>>343773574
>best plan is kill 6 billions to save 2 billions
But his actual plan was to make a SHIFTER army that could go back in time and find the fanatic by trial and error.
Radical-6 was his backup one.
>>343773468
"THE FUCK?"
>>343773760
I wish I looked like Mira :(
>>343773661
1-2-3-4-5-6-dropped storylines
7-dio-like entity, but useless
8-i don't think i care anymore
>>343772947
She needs to be more like a model!
>>343773779
I dunno, shouldn't the filename be tfw no imouto?
>>343773594
it's bluuuuuueeeeeeee
>>343773661
1. Nobody knows
2. Nobody knows
3. Nobody knows
4. Pretty much. Seven got a mention, and I believe Lotus did.
5. No
6. No
7. No point; murderer in the other two games had reasons and didn't feel out of place but she totally did. Also, as to why she didn't get the drugs injected, Zero just felt like letting a serial killer loose? And then killing her later because she's a bad person?
tl;dr, Nobody Knows
8. Supposedly because if you're around SHIFTers, you're able to access the morphogenetic field and shift too like Eric and Mira did. It's fucking weird and convoluted, because if this was the case all along, Sigma could've just shifted out of C-End...Honestly, I can't be bothered to make sense of it because there isn't much at all.
>>343773661
5.) C-End 1. Brother gave Akane the robes and told her to go to their ceremony
6.) Lord Gordain was just world building and All-Ice is just a red herring and I don't know why people won't let go of her.
7.) Delta understandably wanted a closer look at those bazongas. Also, she was the root cause of Sean's death so he wanted to kill her personally at one point
Does anyone know if Carlos has any family? I was wondering for the entire game but for some reason the characters never talk about it
>>343773586
Thousands of Junpeis died horrible deaths or lived sad and unhappy lives for it, but it was worth it.
>>343773661
5.Brother invites Akane to a ritual session on April 12, 2029 and gives her a robe to wear. She says she doesn't want to go but Brother knows she will go. You learn this at the end of the timeline that connects to VLR.Not sure about Snake.
>>343773930
Thanks Tomono.

Just let me get on with this game for fuck's sake.
>>343774045
...
>>343774045
which timeline are you from?
>>343773661
If you finished the game you know that nobody can give you an answer to 1-6. As for Mira, I think she was just there to clean up in certain timelines, like when she kills all of D-team. I guess she also played a large part in the snail story and a lot of the participants in the decision game are related to said story.
>>343773661
Lotus and Seven also get mentioned.
>>343774045
He has a son called Omega, I think.
>>343774045
His cousins from Japan taught him how to wield the fire axe properly
>>343773594
Junpei's English VA is great
English VA is worth it for Carlos and Delta alone
>>343773661

This will be answered in ZE4. Please look forward to it.
>7. What was the point of Mira, a serial killer, being in the game and why didn't she get any drugs injected?
Our producers wanted a character that would appeal to American beauty standards.
>8. Since when can SHIFTers suddenly jump to specific other timelines on command? In the other games it didn't seemed like it was possible, and it only happened after dying anyway, not while still being alive.
They got better at it.
>>343774045
He has no family, only a comatose fucktoy
>>343774045
What the fuck? Is this bait?
>>343774076
D team force quit box answers aren't explicitly stated, but they're easy to guess. If you haven't gotten D End-2, then you don't know it yet. If you do, you should already know.
>>343773661
>4. Actually, where the fuck were all the other characters from 999 and VLR anyway? Is there really nothing more than ''Aoi was assisting Akane at Crash Keys''?
Clover and Alice are working in the govermental Esper thing from VLR, Ace is in jail, Santa is running Crash Keys, Lotus is taking care of her daughters, Seven is back with the police and has been assisting Junpei on the side. They blew up Free the Soul's HQ together. Snake is never mentioned
>>343774045
He's a stripper and lives with his 3D printed clone
>>343774076
YOU ONLY NEED ONE ENDING TO KNOW WHAT THEY ARE
>ZTD is advertised as a horror game
>Markiplier or some other YouTuber plays it
>>343774034
>All-Ice is just a red herring and I don't know why people won't let go of her.
Because she wasn't intended as a red herring, she got dropped as a plot device because Uchi decided it was too hard to make something of i t.
>>343774194
>ZE4 actually happens
>nothing gets answered AGAIN
>>343774247
Snake is mentioned by Clover in VLR though.
>>343773661
Auriga pls
>>343774076
The space button is there for a reason
>>343774324
>ZE4 is just a big setup for ZE5, because the terrorist was just trying to save the world from aliens
>>343773594
Junpei's english VA did a great job at making the nipple scene awkward as fuck
>>343774436
>It ends with the earth blowing up, but it's genetic data being transferred to another place in the universe, where Junpei and Akane land and become Adam and Eva.
Daily reminder that Delta can't find the terrorist because the terrorist is another Delta from a different timeline and that's the "Brother" they described in VLR.
There are two Delta in all timelines
>>343774283
How does that affect you in any way, faggot?
Does anyone know if it's possible that, instead of being asleep for hours at a time, the characters in their respective teams had actually been awake but had simply forgotten the events due to the memory loss drug? I was thinking about this the entire game but for some reason the characters never bring it up
>>343772927
It was pretty cool, then got extremely good after the AB game where everyone started jumping timelines.
The whole Delta reveal was just the cherry on top. Sure, some threads were left hanging, but the ending was still pretty damn cool.
>>343774034
Uchikoshi said that we'd know more about Lord Gordain from this game. That wasn't that long before the game came out, so it can't have just been that it was planned and got dropped.
>>343774436
>ZE5 also was a setup for ZE6, because the aliens were trying to save the world from GOD-Great Omniscient Dimensional, a 5-dimensional quantum computer.
>Junpei talks about seeing women's nipples
>Akane immediately starts talking about how strong and heroic Carlos is just to piss him off
I really liked the passive agressive dynamic between Jumpy and Akane in this game.
>>343774194
The way ZTD ended, I would not be surprised.
Brother was basically like,
>Hey, I was trying to save 2 billion out of 8 billion. You fucked that up. Now all 8 billion will die. Good luck with your optimism.
CARLOS IS GAY
I'LL WRITE FAGGOT ON MY FOREHEAD IF IT'S NOT TRUE.
>>343773309
whenever anyone called sean a boy in the first half of the game I was like 'how do you know'
>>343774804
just ask uchi on twitter since you want to know so bad
>>343774804
Go ahead, take a picture though.
Who wrote the Anagram gab letter?
>>343774492
>It's about the size of a nipple
>Well... nipple sizes do vary...
I can't even remember what the context of the situation was but I do remember him saying it.
>>343774804
>Are you interested in me?
>I've got no time for a love life
He nevr says "I'm not interested in men". I think he's actually gay.
>>343774076
Yeah, the space in the second password was bullshit.
>>343774845
Because of the morphogenetic field
>>343774685
>ZE6 is just a setup for ZE7, because GOD's true aim was to make mankind realise they're all part of a simulation and to ascend to the higher plane, where they can save the true world from a state of endless apathy, also the shifting was just them abusing save states
>>343774685
>ZE6 was a setup for ZE7, because GOD was trying to prevent Akane from taking its place and it turns out that she was evil all along and wants to rule the multiverse
I can understand and not understand why people keep bitching ab out not seeing 999/VLR characters in ZTD. What would half of them do? Snake and maybe Lotus would be the only ones who could do jackshit because the rest of them were either minorly involved, players of the game anyway, or we already knew what they were up to. Santa's only good for minor morph-field stuff, but the game was made to specifically prevent him from helping too.
Are these people just mad that Clover wasn't in the game? Or do they have Alien-shitpost syndrome?
>>343774283
Let's hope so, it would bring attention to the series.
In the timelines where all three members of one of the teams are dead, does anyone think it might have been because of the vote at 13:30? It seemed to obvious to me but for some reason none of the characters ever brought it up
>>343774252
>carlos hanging out with his clone
Bff
>>343774685
>6 fucking games
>they're still trying to solve the world's problems by locking 9 people up and making them do puzzles
>>343774880
I actually don't care that much, I'd rather pressure one of you into asking.
>>343774881
He was just pretending.
>>343774939
Exactly, Junpei could see Carlos was a fruit right at the start.
>>343774970
ZE7 was just a setup forEver17, because remaining in apathy means LeMu would have never been built.
>>343774436
>the aliens were mind hackers that read the minds of the humans behind the dcom experiments, so they thought humans were trying to colonize Mars
>so they convinced Delta to make the Decision game and gave him a shitload of resources, the power to mind hack and the fax machine
>The radical terrorists somehow knew about this so they developed a virus to stop the aliens, but it was too strong and killed the entire human race
BRAVO KUCHISUSHI
>>343775036
most participants from the earlier games would have been better than mira and eric.
>>343775072
Nope, they died of natural cause
>ZE4 is about a terrorist nuking the earth because he knows the aliens are coming back to take their technology back, and stopping him solves nothing because the aliensstill come and terraform the place.
>>343774045
>>343774587
>>343775072
once is enough, don't you think?
What was the point of the anagram messages Delta left on the walls of the lounge?
Did they factor into a single thing in any of the timelines? I know what they ultimately meant, but I wanna know what the point of them even being there was, I honestly cannot recall it helping any of them solve any kind of puzzle
>>343774557
How does that stop delta from finding the terrorist? Minhacks aren't that useful.

>>343775226
They're not plot relevant as far as I'm aware
Uchikoshi just has a boner for them
>>343774027
Didn't he mention Left briefly, just saying he was his brother, but not related by blood on one of the endings (Where everyone gather at the Transporter with Delta's reveal). By then, it's quite easy to know that he's fucking dead since in VLR it's mentioned that he got killed young or something like that.
Anyway, he's dead anyway, because there's no way he would be able to live as long as Complexman
>>343775201
>ZE5 stars Duke Nukem as the alien bastards are going to pay for shooting down his ride
>>343775226
i bet he was faxing himself every 10 months
>>343775226
Look, do you know how hard it is to come up with a good anagram? Never mind 3 good anagrams. Zero just wanted people to appreciate them. When they weren't getting the hint he sent Gab to draw attention to them again.
>>343775226
Did the anagram in VLR and anything?
>>343775206
i think he has a right to be mad about all the redundant exposition. it's like half the fucking playtime
>>343772125
Is she wearing a swimsuit?
>>343775104
>sister comes finally home
>she has 2 brothers now
>she's sad because she's Blick Winkel and she knows that 2 dick is nothing compared to Sigma's monster dong
>>343775036
I don't get why people want this either.
We knew after 999 that Lotus had her kids to take care of, that Seven was probably faking his amnesia and would probably return to his normal job, Ace was going to prison, Santa was helping Akane (which was doing VLR related shit and trying to stop brother).
The only ones we didn't know about where Junpei (explained in ZTD) Clover and Snake (explained in VLR).
>>343775036
It's because Uchikoshi told a lot of lies about what would be in ZTD. Promised plot points like Kyle and Left didn't have any relevance. We didn't need everyone to appear directly, but Uchikoshi said there would be more information about the previous games' characters than there actually was.
all the key passwords reveal when a character die is great, they are not random at all
>>343775226
Basically another hint that there is a 10th participant and Delta is Zero, that's all.
>the truth is invisible
>together we make 10 (unused letter can be arranged to spell DELTA)
>you will create us
That shit. There were so many hints to Zero being there the whole time but it doesn't even matter because the twist just feels silly regardless.
>>343775498
What about the vote at 13:30 though
0/10 it's fucking shit did they even QA this oh my god how can you people justify this garbage?
Just got the D-1 ending, is this the True Ending?
>>343775545
He wasn't faking, he just took too much soporil
>>343775412
>Zero Escape was the prequel do Duke Nukem all along.
That works for me. This is now my headcanon

Thanks for clearing that up. I though I maybe missed some hidden files somewhere, but it seems a lot was just scrapped and left out.
That's really disappointing, especially since we only got ANCIENT ALIENS and MIND HACKS in place of it.
The whole alien stuff felt like such a Deus Ex Machina.
>>343775542
>18 inches gets rekt by autistic ho
>dumb as a brick sestroys seanbot
Sigma's 'muscles' are just for show.
Alright, I got Payoff 2. There's no other "secret" (yellow) endings aside from the 2, right?
Question: why didn't Delta just use the transporter like a billion times to the point where there are a million Delt-
>free the soul quickly gained a huge cult following of over a million people
>the Myrmidon clones were made by using the transporter
>>343775135
I really have to wonder what the point of the puzzles even was this time. Especially shit like the sliding blocks in the pod room. Does Zero just want to be sure that the people he's entrusting the world's future to are gifted with basic spatial awareness?
>anagram where some letters are left out
that's not how it works
>>343774247
given the dates, clover and alice are in cryo, actually
We all agree that this game was completely worth it just to see D-2 end, force quit box: D, and the ring scene, right?
Aside from that, THE FUCK, and Carlos fucking up 6 billion lives are good bonuses.
So how do I access this extra Booklet via Steam? It just launches the game but I don't see it anywhere in the menu, am I just blind?
>>343775795
Yeah, exactly. They are on ice.
>>343775790
the leftover letters spell COMPLEX MOTIVES, you fucking idiot

DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO WRITE A GOOD ANAGRAM WITHOUT USING AN ANAGRAM AUTOMATER ONLINE? REALLY HARD
>>343775706
Absolutely. It's sad; most of the things wrong with this game really stemmed from the budget.
>>343775754
If you go into the files there are some epilogues for Carlos, Junpei and Akane, and Eric and Mira
Sigma > Junpy
>cucked Junpei for 45 years with Akane on the moon
>got a qt redhead waifu
>build a sexbot in the likeness of his waifu
>fugged his own daughter
>packs a 12 inch cock
He is certified 110% badass manly
>>343773661
>5. Is it explained why Snake wears the Free the Soul robe in 999 and why Akane wears it at the end of VLR?
Isn't it just left over from when they recreated the first nonary game sponsored by free the soul?
>>343775863
Restarting steam completely made it download fine for me. They will appear in your ZTD folder.
>>343775840
>Carlos fucking up 6 billion lives
How exactly does he do this? The virus was already out before he rescued Junpei and Akane, he just made sure the events in VLR could happen
>hurr he could have stopped Zero before
So could any of them.
>>343775894
>Q insists
>Q
>>343775790
Do you remember what the leftover letters were anon?They spelled something
>>343775894
Yeah no shit. She can put together a sentence from a bunch of letters in her head but one single word is too much to handle.
>>343775939
Maybe the nuclear war thing was a lie so that the others will get off his back for killing 6 billion people?
>>343775998
Sigma is a little bitch that cries in the shower and cant even disarm bombs.

Uchi said it's 9 inches soft, 18 inches hard

>packs a 12 inch cock
maybe if you fold it
it's 18 inch normally
>>343775967
Uchikoshi chose to waste the budget on cinematics when he could have made a visual novel with higher content and lower costs.
>>343772630
I loved how Phi and Sigma were still Phi and Sigma despite Sigma being about 40 years older than where they left off.
>>343775939
Yea of all the flaws to find I actually think that's the biggest. He just glosses over the terrorist "Unfortunately his identity is unknown" like really Delta? You know everything that happens in multiple time lines yet you don't know that?
>>343776014
>haha the game never SPECIFICALLY refers to him as Q! it was all just a clever trick
why do Akane, Mira and Junpei get away with killing people in the alternate timelines but they get mad at Delta, who can't even shift so he is totally innocent, for doing nothing?
Why didn't they just transport the alien transporter so they could have 2 of it?
>>343776313
DELETE THIS
>>343776313
VLR has an animated trailer that shows Sigma as young during the game. Both games did this, lying in their marketing.
>>343776001
Found it, thanks.
>>343775998
He's my favorite protagonist, so yes.
Junpei is such a cry babe in the new game, holy shit. Looks like a totally new character.Even Carlos is better than Junpei.
>>343776313
He's called Q in all the promo material and never in game.
I think that's okay, but I understand if it annoys you.
>>343776280
No. It wouldn't be Uchikoshi, it would be the publishers. And he can't really go against the publishers as a writer and even as a director; he had to adapt to whatever they ask/demand if he wanted the game to be made at all.
>>343776313
I thought the same, but remember the VLR trailer showed Sigma's face. We cant trust those trailers man.
>>343776373
It's worse because there are some people that Akane killed during her time as zero that are STILL dead, not just alternate universe dead

Eric is 1000 times worse. At least there were feelings between Akane and Junpei. Eric was clueless and Mira was just a monster serial killer whore.

Yeah, I still don't get how that happened. The timeline that Akane and Junpei transferred to was already fucked before Carlos could even get there.

In truth she wanted to be dominated by the greek god, but she decided to remain devoted to Junpei.

To confuse the shit out of the players.
post yfw
I just finished ZTD
Where does this 18 inch dick meme come from? I only remember Sigma talking about 12 inches in VLR
So what did everyone think? I've missed all discussion for the past week because I haven't had much time to actually play it until recently.
The only thing I'm really dissapointed by is ??? and Kyle being absent from the plot entirely, and I guess ancient aliens. Out of all the shit we've been presented with I can't say I the latter really fazed me in a positive or negative way. I'm surprised so many people are bringing up mind hacks though. It didn't really do anything other than affect the acid baths and some of the votes, which I guess was a way to circumvent the lack of ??? making those actions like he did in VLR.
I thought the fragment system was impressive in how the game still managed to have a lot of impact and tension despite there being little to no build up at all. Generally things were easy to piece together, and there were a lot of decision games that just didn't have much weight to them because of that, but I thought the ones that did made up for the ones that did not. I don't think the puzzles reached the insane difficulty of some of the ones in ZTD or 999, but I think they were consistently decent.
Overall I think I'm satisfied, even if the ending isn't the most conclusive thing that could have happened. Delta himself was a pretty solid twist too I think.>Sigma desperately trying to find Phi

They only do because it has a stupid name. I've yet to hear any reasoning as to how it's any more stupid than SHIFT. Same with COMPLEX MOTIVES. People are just shit posting and memeing about bad lines.
> I don't think the puzzles reached the insane difficulty of some of the ones in ZTD or 999

I haven't played 999 in ages, so my judgement is probably skewed. I definitely remember VLR having some challenging puzzles, but the more I think about 999 the less I actually remember outside of computing numbers in whatever numeral language was repeatedly used. So yeah, you're probably right.
>>343779429
Oh, I know doesn't really make the twist good tho. Delta always being there is unnecessary as hell.
Anyone got a soundclip of "the fuck"?
>>343779429
And there are a fuckton of instances where you can see his shadow but his model suddenly vanishes in the next panning shot.
>>343779617
Yea and you are correct that VLR had some harder puzzles. Personally I think I like ZTD's more though since sometimes the ones in VLR were so hard just because they just weren't great puzzles.

Akane, Sigma and Phi were already motivated. It's really just Junpei and Carlos that he's recruiting so I'm not sure why he needed everyone else.

>>343779994
>Then just trap Sigma and Diana down there. Why do you need everyone else?
Because of some off hand remark about creating the specific "him" that exists through genetic switches or whatever
>Then just release Radical-6. He already has it in the facility and could have released it any time he wanted.
Because he wanted to cover his bases by creating a universe where the virus both was and was not released
>Akane, Sigma and Phi were already motivated. It's really just Junpei and Carlos that he's recruiting so I'm not sure why he needed everyone else.
This part really doesn't get covered though, my theory is that he's a stupid asshole who likes torturing people, he was raised by germans, remember?

But they are incompetent as fuck. He needed Junpei and Carlos.

>>343780173
>didn't this come out a long time ago or am i thinking of something else? What is it?
You're probably thinking of Virtue's Last Reward which is the previous game in the series. This game has some of the characters from that game and that's probably why you think it's the same game.
>>343780258
Truly a complex anagram.

>>343780326
The latest article for ZTD on Steam says they are so it's very likely.
>>343780008
Yea just doesn't add up why he existed at all. In VLR Akane claimed that Sigma learned how to make clones (he fucking studied genetics and learned to clone humans for fucks sake) so that he could create Kyle because he NEEDED him for some shit.
What did he need him for? It's clear Uchi dropped that plot line.
Personally I thought it was going to have somethign to do with having a body to jump back to or something since you need a body in the timeline to shift to and he couldn't mess up the VLR loop by shifting back to his own body and a genetic clone might be close enough.
He dropped clones entirely from the story even though they were important. Left clones also get no mention and Uchi even went into detail in one QA how ZE clones are created implying it was important.
>>343780258
>this picture
>>343780173
So here's the lowdown:
999 came out on the DS in 2010. Everybody loved it and it sold pretty well, particularly in the states.
VLR started development and had the gore and darkness toned down because glorious nippon didn't like it. It releases in 2012 and does less well and sells considerably worse in japan and underperforms in America. Though it ends on a cliffhanger it has no sequel in sight.
3 years go by with no mention of a sequel aside from the creator saying he's trying to get it funded. Last year it's finally teased on some site and it gets confirmed that the third game is made.
Fast-forward to today, it's released.
>>343780467
I thought K was intended to be Sigma's backup if Sigma died before he could finish the AB project?
>you haven't even played the games and now you're interested after being spoiled by everything
Spoilers somehow don't bother me and that issue bothers me.
Least I can somehow play the games on PC. Can they still be enjoyed with the fact that most twists are blown open?
>think about replaying VLR afte beating ZTD
>remember that quark and alice exist

>>343780623
Both 999 and VLR were actually in the red. It's a miracle ZTD even exists.
>>343780689
it'll make the games way less interesting IMO.
>>343780689
The journey in the games are often more rewarding than the resolution/end, so yes.
Also, both 999 and VLR appear to be getting ported to PC, so you might have time to wait and forget and then play once the ports come out.

Remember how she rider kicked Dio in VLR? That wasn't because of the gravity.
>>343781339
The main problem with the fragment thing was that they had to account for players playing them in an arbitrary order. As such, they had to go and say "we may have woken up several times already", among other things, far more than necessary which made it tedious.
>>343780812
I can still emulate 999, but yeah, I'm just waiting for VLR port or to play it one after other.

As a european I am truly grateful for /v/ this one time. Because it's only because of /v/ discussions about 999 that I even knew it existed.
>>343781132
I actually feel so bad for Uchi and everyone else who poured their heart into that game.
They sold like a little over 15,000 copies in the first few weeks. That's so bad and it's not like Chunsoft didn't try to get Japanese players interested. They launched marketing campaigns in Akihabara, they adjusted the games content to be less violent and stressful (the reason many Japs said they didn't buy 999) and got some pretty big VAs.
People just didn't wanna play it there.

The thing wasn't paradox proof, and nobody could understand the actual timeline chart properly. Delta would probably have a point of reference or a better understanding since he had it his entire life.
>>343781098
That was bullshit too. When the 3 of them stand off, they are like 3 feet apart from each other in a triangle. That grenade launcher blew up a safe from upstairs. I am expected to believe he launched it at Sean while Eric and Mira were able to get away quickly enough while Sean wasn't. Either all 3 should have been dead or none of them.
>>343781287

Oh I thought the same thing as soon as that stand-off formed. Like, if they weren't stupid they could have gotten it to work. Have the characters leave the bow and gun on the first floor and launcher on the top floor and have the standoff happen from across the room with Eric up the stairs.
It pisses me off when games and movies have shit like this that could have been done in a way that didn't create a flaw or misstep.

Yup. No More Heroes launch is equally depressing.

Did ZTD have the worst puzzles? I felt like I was playing with kids toys half the time.
>>343781617
He's the hero we deserved.
>>343782074
Right though.
I guess part of it has to do with what visual novels are usually about in Japan. Kind of a demographics issue where people expect VNs to be rampant escapism. Still, fuck them.
>>343778470
I wound up buying the game digitally after I found out the preorders fucked up. I'm not canceling since I still want the special edition stuff but when the game arrives i'm probably going to sell it.
>>343782127
Phi was sleeping in a pod though.
Sigma and Akane are the true fuck ups, because none of the training actually worked.
>>343782074
I thought they liked violent shit I mean look at some of their anime it's pretty gruesome.
Maybe nowadays they're more into idols and stuff?
When using a teleporter, you are really just cloned and plopped somewhere else. This can be seen by the two different Sigma and Diana's in the (Baby/Door) Ending. Therefore, if Phi and Delta were sent to the past. They also starved. Even more so, there is a dead World War 2 era Phi out there. The teleporter is probably how Brother clones himself.
>>343782171
Geez, that's really depressing. That really is so sad.
Life really is unfair. Wish it didn't have to be this way. I try not to think about the game we could've had had the circumstances been different.
>>343782340
Most of them were easy and there were repeats but at least there weren't any extremely tedious puzzles
>>343782185
breaking the gold file codes were pretty satisfying desu. too bad I'll never play the puzzles for the first time again ;_;
>>343782340
999's puzzles were way easier dude. There were those shitty spin the tiles puzzles and those stupid X puzzles but then there were ones like the alien math one and the one in the room with the test subjects where everyone gets infected that were really good.
>>343782297
I guess you need a large dong to have a family this perfect.ignoring the problem child
>>343781176
>>343780971
So let me see if I get this right, Carlos sent Akane and Junpei to the other timeline. Then the device exploded and he jumped to another timeline (the one where his entire team escaped but he chose to stay behind), used the device there and ???
Did he use the device twice in that timeline?
>mfw in Decontamination

>>343776690
can't unhear
>>343782478
Well anon, take solace knowing that a part of your consciousness, which is of course hosted in the field, is enjoying them in another timeline.
What was the point of the puzzles in ZTD?
So it's been a while, but weren't the puzzles in 999 originally meant to awaken the kids psychic powers? and the puzzles in VLR were meant to strengthen Sigma's? so then what was the point of having to solve these problems in ZTD? didn't all of the important stuff like the shifting or splitting timelimes happen after the puzzles because of the danger they were in?
>>343782340
Nothing ever felt genuinely challenging. A lot of the rooms were straightforward as hell with nothing stopping you from blowing through it in 3 seconds, but then theres garbage like the pod room that included 8 fucking sliding block puzzles just to pad out the time.
>>343782228
I'm sure there's text but it doesn't help at all.

>>343782554
I had let the time run out instead of actually making a choice, and I honest to god thought they were going to start clapping EVA style.
>>343782562
He used it once, killed himself and then jumped to the timeline where his new copied self was.
>>343782383
Isn't Saya no Uta one of the most famous VNs tho? That game is brutal as fuck.
>>343772250i miss her more
>>343782475
wtf are you talking about.
Brother aka Delta doesn't clone himself.
1904 Phi got cloned to 2008 when she was still a baby, and ended up raising the clone when she was 100+yo
Why did he botch the ending so fucking bad?
It even went and ruined VLR for me.
>>343782714
>your SHIFT-travelling Dad will never hit on you and make jokes about your cup size
>>343782664
;_;
I'll try
>>343782790
Because he had a low budget and had to cut out a lot because VLR bombed despite having tons of money shoved into it.
Blame Japan and pirates.
>>343782668
Only a couple of the puzzles served a purpose, such as trying to get Phi out of the incinerator, or trying to find a missing team member.
>>343782790
limited budget probably
>>343782562
Naw here's how it goes
Junpei and Akane use machine to warp to timeline where they died via execution
Carlos explodes the transporter at his spot to give him the situation to jump to another timeline.
The timeline he lands in is the one where C Team pushed the buttons and melted D and Q Teams. He chooses to stay behind and use the transporter in a time where it hadn't been used yet.
He sends himself 10 months into the past so he can allow the transporter to recharge in the timeline Junpei and Akane transport to so they can transport safely.
10 months of fuckall later he comes in after the decision game has ended in that timeline and saves Junpei and Akane
congratulations that's the story of how a fireman named Carlos is now responsible for 6 Billion dead.

>sitting on dads lap when you feel his 9-inch soft greek weiner
>>343782881
>>343782915
what does budget have to do with the way the ending was delivered, or the story?
>>343782782
Remember is VLR, we found out Dio was the current leader of "Free The Soul"? And was a clone of there founder, Brother. How Dio's real name was Left? Anything ring a bell?
>>343782986
Less writers, less competent team, less days to work on the project which means a less quality product, etc.
>>343782986
you do realize that 90% of the game is cinematics and voice acting right
if the story was supposed to be longer or had more content, that's more cinematics and voice acting
use your head.
>>343781842
Mira took her first heart when she was a little girl.

>>343782915
>have a limited budget since this game barely even existed in the first place
>blow it all on retarded cinematics ruined by godawful animation and sawahiro instead of using the engine and VN style you already have
Nice one, Uchi.
>>343782668
We have to assume that all this shit was done because Delta read countless minds from countless timelines (or just used his quantum computer) and learned that these are the exact things he needs to do to get the outcome he wants.
There was a lot of similar explanations for shit in 999. That Akane knew she had to do things a specific way to get the outcome she saw.
>>343778178
He isn't even that frugal. He didn't even need 9 participants, He could have just done with 3 participants with rotating personalities, wards and time. Just shift them from other timelines. It is established that in zero escape universe people are retarded and can't realize the body isn't theirs.
If he was fast enough he could do even it with one participant.
>>343783041
Dio is leader of the myrmidons, which is an organization from Free the Soul. Dio is a left clone
>>343782790

Not every plot thread from VLR is resolved but the ending in ZTD is fine.

>>343775292

Cant choke bitches forever
>>343783041
Dio is the leader of Myrmidon, not FtS
He's the clone of Left, aka Brother's brother.
>>343782986
how does it not
he wasn't able to fit in everything he wanted
they had to write the script in one year, with not just uchikoshi but two other writers in order to split the work and make the deadline, which leads to an overall misunderstanding of uchi's characters and the story
a bigger budget would've allowed for a longer game and for writing with less limits
the budget affected practically almost everything

Huh.
>>343783286
His English VA is fucking cute.
>>343782668
The whole game I kept thinking "Okay, resonance effect, and at least five SHIFTers SHIFTing the fuck out of spacetime. Surely Zero's setting them up to do this to make some big fucking thing happen, like some kind of ultra-SHIFT."Well, that and thinking "Which one of these guys is Kyle?"
>>343783286
>you will never go bowlingusing sean's head to knock the pins down
>>343783286
You may need to clarify that a bit
Do you mean that you love him?
Or do you mean that youlovehim?
>>343783286
I liked him as well. Which is why I hate Eric for all the shit he put the kid through. He should have been put in team D. They would have been nice to him.
>>343782668
Epigenetics and strengthen SHIFTERS powers.
Why do people ask about questions that were already answered in previous games?
>>343773468
Wesker as Delta was pretty nice
was it just me or did Q's rusty stain on his helmet look like the USA
>>343783286

>>343783286
>no scene where Mira tries to rip his heart out only to find out the truth
>>343781976

>>343783286

Yeah, he shouldn't have had to see so much gruesome stuff
>>343783358
That seems like nitpicking instead of actual issues.
>>343783502
That still confuses me. She pretty much confesses to Sean, and doesn't get rid of the witness, she just lets him walk out with her and Q
I have the option to pirate this, however I haven't played whatever the fuck came after 999.
Safe to say I won't get most of the things in the plot if I just jump straight into 3, right?
Where are the lewds and smut?
>>343782442
moe slice of life shit is what they are into
So where is Alice and Clover from the future? I thought they were going to go back in time somehow. Once they shown the Transporter, I thought maybe future Akane has it on the moon or something.
>>343783358
When ZTD ended, I was literally thinking it was making way for ZE4 with some of the shit it didn't answer.
>>343781685
don't forget delta hid as well, someone should draw that scene
>>343783626
not here
not anywhere
What I want to know is how was Delta's performance as a blind/deaf old man THAT convincing that no one even remotely questions him for basically the entire game?
I mean they know they're dealing with a guy crafty enough to set up this entire retarded scenario, was it really so beyond the realm of possibility he could manage sitting in a wheelchair for less than a week?
>>343783608
>completely dropped plot threads from the cliffhanger in the previous game

>>343783695
Mira is in on it
Eric is too on-edge to think about it
Sean figures it out in Perceptive End
As for the other participants, I suppose they forget about him since he's not in immediate view and they have other stuff to worry about
>>343783286
>Eric making him fess up who killed Mira
>I DON'T KNOW I DON'T KNOW I DON'T KNOW I DON'T KNOW I DON'T KNOW I DON'T KNOW
That was fucking horrid.
>>343783358
You're retarded, here's why:
>Out of nowhere 8 BILLION TERORRIST which is never even expanded on
He uses the quantum computer to calculate timelines and sees that many of them lead to the extinction of the human race. He uses calculations and finds out the only surefire way to stop it is to create the virus to save a little bit of humanity.
>That friendship is power and will solve anything magic speech at the ending
Delta even goes to the point of saying "So now there is a timeline where Radical 6 wasn't released, and 6 espers are ready to stop the possible extinction of the human race". It's all part of the plan.
>No final puzzle
>Kyle Klim is literally nowhere
>? is literally nowhere
A little disappointing, but whatever, I'm just happy the game is out at all.
>No myrmidons at all
weren't these created way later in the timeline
>That ambiguous ending with no closure
You literally missed the whole point of it. The ending choice doesn't fucking matter because whether or not they shoot him, they're all determined to use these powers to stop the terrorist from nuking the goddamn world. If you want closure to the individual stories read the files you get after beating the game.
>The real closure being in datalogs
Just like VLR?
>>343783608
Most of those are blatant huge issues what are you talking about
>>343783664
>someone should draw that scene
That would be entertaining to see. Three people having a Mexican standoff while a deaf, blind cripple is sitting in a wheelchair a few feet away from them.
But yeah, your right, that's bullshit too.
So In VLR. How did zero we know code #1 for the bombs?
A friend who is playing through the game asked me and I don't remember. I haven't played that game since 2013(though ill buy the PC version)
>>343781106
But if he had saved them earlier, wouldn't it be that he saved a different timeline's Junpei/Akane, so the ones there would have been fucked if it weren't for him?
>>343783695
What my biggest problem with him is that he is deaf-blind, but can navigate the rooms and follow characters on his wheelchair.
How the fuck could he do that?
>very beginning of the game no one ever once suspected Zero was in actuality the blind deaf old man
>8 of them are separated into different cells
>zero walks from the hall making a grand entrance
>no one bats an eye on why instead of the blind deaf old guy there is instead a little kid
>implied that literally only Carlos figured out who Zero was at the beginning but never again did he bring it up
>>343784008
Is Bomb #1 not CRASHKEYS?
>>343783639
The only thing stopping me from thinking this and having hope is that this has been advertised/marketed/stated by Uchi himself in the past to be the last one
>>343783960
He didn't deserve any of this.
>>343783960
Why.... Why....
>>343784054
Their memories were erased
Reminder
>>343784054
>but never again did he bring it up
The game probably said "When next you wake, know that you will have no memory of these past ninety minutes" like fifteen times.
>>343783960
>tfw I didn't know to just wait out the time, I thought you had to get the actual name
>just kept putting in everyone's names
I got some funny results out of it but eventually it got old watching Eric shotgun a kid. I just let the timer sit out then I was finally able to progress.
Am I the only one who thought the ending theme was similar to this one?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuofG8a7EEk
>>343783623
You're not gonna understand a goddamn thing if you haven't at-least played VLR. 999 is really great also so I say at least play from the start.
fuck off >>343783724
>>343783623
Dont bother. You wont understand anything, the game is much more tied in to the predecessor than VLR was. Use Citra, maybe it will emulate it, or get a 3DS.
>>343784054
>delta was at DCom
>isn't there for the coin flip when zero is there in person
>is suddenly back again for the decision game

>>343783960
I feel stupid now but that decision threw me for a loop and I overthought it. I kept typing in all these names when all you had to do was wait out the timer.
>>343784201
Akane lied, people died
>>343784024
I assumed the others helped him get aroundoff screen of course
>>343784201
KYLE WAS BETTY ALL ALONG
>>343783721
??? is Blick Winkel, he confirmed that in a twitter. Kyle is either the player or Gab or, at the very, worst, that's the only thing dropped.
Shifter only need trial and error several times to find the fanatic, they're gonna find it eventually.
Final puzzle is just nitpicking, we already had enough puzzles.
Myrmidons got covered enough in VLR already. They're just agents based on his adopted brother.
>>343783636
They're over in the "These are the worst characters in the series" quarantine dimension.
>>343783968
>weren't these created way later in the timeline
I'm not sure about that since Alice and Clover knew about them in VLR if I remember correctly.
>>343783968
>they're all determined to use these powers to stop the terrorist from nuking the goddamn world.
and shouldn't we see this happen? considering that it's the real reason why EVERYTHING has happened? it's just left to a "lol they're gonna work on it"?
that's not being open ended; it's being unfinished and without closure
>>343783968
>>343783968

That's the definition of open ended, retard.
Even if it takes them a trillion timelines, they would stop it eventually. It's fucking obvious how is gonna end.
>>343784375
>we already had enough puzzles
>the last few hours of the game are entirely cutscenes
>>343784251
>>343784318
"I DONT KNOW" was also a valid answer.
>>343783636
there's an implication since they mentioned the "two bodies in the same world" scenario at the end of vlr.
>>343776313
The trailers are always about your preconceptions.
>>343784430
He fucking says it in the game.
Do I have to fucking screencap it?
>>343784573
That's the definition of shit ending. It makes the series and this game pointless.
>>343784606
>bitching about exposition in a VN/movie game
Full retard.
>>343784510
I did that too and I laughed honestly.
And during the crossbow scene I typed in someone who was dead during that timeline:
THE DEAD CANNOT BE KILLED
Also got a chuckle out of me
>>343781331
It's understandable that shr laughed if you played the Library fragments first.
She really doesn't know how to react or feel about anything. She laughed because she thought that was thr appropriate way to react.

FATHERHOOD WITH KYLE ENDED
MY NEW SON IS DELTA
>>343784747
It's not shit, you're retarded and using phrases you don't know the meaning of.
Fuck off retard.
>>343783695
They were together for 5 days at DCOM before the game so I assume Delta did a convincing enough job then to fool every one enough to the point where they'd already accepted it beyond a doubt when the Decision game started.
>>343783142
He needs Phi, Sigma and Diana there for the lewd handholding plan, Sean for his shota redemption side plan, and Akane to get Crash Keys to look for the fanatic in the extinction timeline.
Everyone else is superfluous and likely had good reasons to be there that didn't make it into the game.
>>343784886
Right back at you, my fellow shitposter.
>>343778335
for a second I thought we were in for some blick winkel shit but instead we got old man and mind hacks :/
>>343781448
The sequel to 999 was greenlit before it even came out in America. Originally, all three games were going to be on the DS and use the same engine. The plans only changed after the 3DS was announced.
>>343784736
>Do I have to fucking screencap it?
Please do.
Also,
>only surefire way to stop it
75% chance. He could have killed a random person on earth. In one timeline that would be the terrorist.
>>343784893
If you play the pirated version a soporil beta grenade will go off in your computer and you'll wake up forced to play a game of life and death about ancient gameshows or some bullshit like that
>>343784893
Please do not pirate a small series that has always been in the red.
>>343784848
I voted for C thrice in a row as D now though, and I still can't get it.
>>343785046
Yup, 75% of the timelines will only have 6 billion instead of all 8. Not a great plan, but better than global extinction.
>>343783374
It's only 8 digits though
>>343785093
But he already bought it
>>343776847
Remeber how every date the characters input is fucked up and they get throw around time?
You probably need a quatum computer and being preaproved by Delta to use it.
>>343785093
He's poor as fug, ramen and mcdonalds wifi tier
>>343785105
Do them all over starting from C. So C, Q, D with consistent voting for who you're trying to execute until you get the desired result.
>>343785105
You got Q and C to vote for D one after the other? It can't be separated.
>>343784984

THE END. That's pretty much ZTD 's ending.
How can you feel when the theory about Snake being Brother is not true?
>>343784893
Please don't pirate our game. It really needs all the support it can get.
Pirate if you must, but buy it when you can.
>>343785121

>>343785121
I mean at that point, why not make a virus that kills 99% of humanity? Then it's only a 1% chance the fanatic makes it through.
It's a really dumb plan concept.
>>343785350

You do realize Delta can't SHIFT right
>>343783297

Shit's happened to me too.
I think the biggest difference in time was 5 years and I forgot what the hell it was.

Mira isn't in on it, she just wasn't injected with any drugs. And Sean doesn't figure it out so much as gets the information from his quantum consciousness.
>>343785535
I'll say this every single time
he either dies by shotgun to the face
or by the ENTIRE BUNKER GOING KABOOM

>Go back right after I learned who Sean was but before I learned who Zero was and type "Sean" in thinking it'll flip him out because he has no idea who that is
>"Hah! So you admit it!"
>>343785535
I would have liked Gab more if he actually had some sort of movement besides walk away sit and pant
>>343785542
Why? It's all part of Delta'sCOMPLEX MOTIVES
>>343785561
He doesn't really have to when that quantum computer exists
>>343785450
So? Just add a note at the end of VLR saying that one day they succeeded(which will obviously break the loop) and call it a day.
>>343785248
Yeah, I got all six cinema in the chart. Then I rebooted my vita and I got the third execution.
>>343785561
Kill one guy chosen randomly. In game he doesn't care about all the timeline he's doomed because he creates one that isn't. So there should be no difference between 3/4 and 1/8billion chance for him
>>343784554
Junpei and Akane obv

If Mira weren't in some kind of communication with Delta/Zero, chances are she would at some point say "What's wrong with you guys, I remember everything from the past few hours".
>>343785770
It's not magic, it's just calculations. It doesn't have knowledge of every human being on Earth. If it did, he'd just find out where he was and shoot him in the face.
>>343785450
Pretty sure his point is that there's absolutely nothing else to the ending other than that. It's dirt simple due to the content being cut.
>>343784008
sigma learns from zero, and hence zero remembers
>>343785535Did he immediately die in the true end?
Can anyone think of ONE legitimate reason for why Delta shot Gab, other than a boring shock moment for the audience?
>>343785802
you would make a horrible writer.
>>343785695
Yeah, I tried typing in
>Eric
>Mira
>Radical Six
>Zero
>Sean
>Q
After awhile, I was kind of sick of seeing Eric shotgunning a kid but the last two in the list were confusing at first. Makes sense now.
Also, fuck Eric, he's unstable as fuck.
>>343785861
Mira's an autistic serial killer. There's no reason for her to give up any sort of advantage she has.
>>343785770
It could also show him timelines where the terrorist might be someone else though, right? He might kill person A but in his timeline, it'd be person B.
>>343785962
It starts with "C"
>>343785809
Weird. Glad you got it working!
>>343785962
Dog was old. That's like the only thing I can think of. Even that is lame.
>>343785993
Same shit Uchi did. Now they are determined to fix it :^) thx for support.
>>343785889
He's able to observe all of the timelines with it, all he has to do is go through all 8 billion possibilities until he finds one that works, he doesn't need to shift to achieve that.
>>343785535
>the vent is actually just Gab's comfy bedroom
Cute doggo
>>343785814
Let's see, you can either have a .0000000125% chance of making your timeline where humanity isn't extinct or a 75% of making your timeline where only 6 billion are dead.
If I was him I'd rather take the chance of the 6 billion.
>>343784768
>Mexican standoff
>Choose Gab
>He's not here!
I fucking loved putting in all the names I knew. Although
>Vote Q
>What's Q's real name?
>Fuck you why does that stop me from shooting the old cunt?
>>343785962
They weren't going to kill each other anyway so he probably just put him out of his misery.
>>343786157
How would it know which person is the terrorist? It's still a computer dude. At-best he could rule out a couple hundred-thousand people.
>>343786214
If we follow the logic the game presents during the entire dice roll situation, it amounts to the same thing.
>>343786082
I'd like to buy a vowel.
>>343785962
More reason for Carlos to pump Deltas face full of leadDifferent timeline Gab needs to be avenged ;_;
>Monty Hall problem comes up with the oxygen mask in the locker.
>Pick a locker.
>Switch.
>It's empty.
Fucking bullshit. I was so mad.
>>343786214
Not when the game is all about the many-worlds theory. He just cares about one timeline. Even with a .0000000125% chance one Delta in one timeline will succeed. Like the there is one team who wins the 100 matches.
>>343786331
1/216 is much better odds than 1/8000000000
>>343785665
yes, biolab
>>343786468
Even worse. I said fuck probability and didn't switch the first time. Got it wrong
Played it again and switched, got it wrong again.
>>343786487
Have you ever considered he wants to live in a timeline where Humanity isn't extinct?
>>343786425
CO_____ _O______O__
>>343786468
Have you ever considered a 90% chance is not a 100% chance?
You are the bullshit my man
>>343783286
He warmed my heart a little.
>>343778570
it's super dumb, this game is not meant to be played on streaming
youtube gaming was a mistake
>>343785665
>>343786646
How the fuck are you supposed to figure out the order of the jars in there? I could not fucking figure it out for the life of me.
>>343786682
And he will. In one timeline. I mean he doesn't care if he dies in almost all the timelines in ZTD. He even kills himself many times.
>>343786823
You just place the biggest and most awkward ones first.
>>343786765
Is there an X?

But the human fetus is last? I still don't fucking get it or how the pills tie into it.
