I'm not sure what outro music would work better for that video, "Now You're a Hero" or "Barnyfag Outro Theme"
>>344252729
I'm gonna miss these threads just like I'll miss the franchise. Sitting in here bitching about how dumb ZTD can be and reminiscing on the good old days of VLR and 999 is the best shitposting I've read in a long time.
I hope it doesn't go to /vg/, this is something that just needs to burn itself out and die naturally rather than being kept alive artificially with stupid waifuposting and whatever else goes on in generals for dead games and franchises
>>344253008
I see a PI symbol.
>>344252729
I just beat the game today and I've been avoiding /v/ for the past two or three weeks.
What was the board like before and shortly after the game's released? Were there spoilers all over the place?
>tfw all those fucking reused songs and they didn't even remixQuietus
I was fucking expecting it to pop up during the ending.
>>344253297
Nah no spoilers for the most part. ZTD was mostly self contained in its own threads, with 90% of the OPs being spoiler-free.
So what is the probability for a fourth game coming out?Is it higher or lower than 0.0046%?
Did that anon who asked Uchi on kikebook get a reply?
>>344253434
How far in advance did spoilers leak?
>>344253438
Lower.
>>344253263
Why are we still here? Just to suffer?
>>344253596

>>344252031
Poor Carlos. You know that isn't the reaction he was expecting.

You did play the game, right?He didn't reappear if you didn't
>>344253897
I recall someone struggling trying to lift the box, and then Sean lifting and shaking it with relative ease.
>>344253750
>when
Reddit is that way
Why is it that none of the remixes of Morphogenetic Sorrow managed to sound as sad as the original?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7WHvJzJpPY
https://twitter.com/5pbgamesUSA/status/751212533676072960
>>344252031
Best one I've seen yet.
Lord's work, anon.
>>344254180
Fuck no.
>>344253975
Yeah that was the point, Sean was fucking superhuman stronk and it was supposed to hint at him not being human
desu as much as ZTD had its problems it had some really fuckin cool moments, like the first time in the Decon room was genuinely fucked up but after that it just got tedious doing it for every group.
It had a lot of really great ideas and scenes and moments but just couldn't tie them together well. Probably worst in the franchise but not by much honestly
>>344253975
He's a robot, remember? There are two or three scenes before the reveal when Sean shows abnormal strength. Most of the time it's him sending Eric flying, but it's so poorly animated that it's hard to even tell what the fuck happened.
>>344254180
It's better than Zero Time Dilemma.
>>344254314
>and it was supposed to hint at him not being human
I knew from the first time he died and no blood spilled despite the fact that everyone else leaked everywhere harder than a BP tanker.
>>344254156
Because the original just sounds so weak and tired, like it's struggling hard. The remixed versions are a lot clearer and powerful in comparison.
>>344252031
music starts too soon. Then again, the title just ruins the joke. Still pretty funny tho.
>>344253975
He has crazy robot strength though.
>>344254180
Is the game as bad as the anime?
>>344253000
life is strange is so terrible on /vg/
>>344254465
When Sean didnt leak blood, I thought it was one of those censorship thing against children abuse. Like if an older character got stabbed, thats fine . But if its a child, then either it should be off camera or not gory. Didnt think it was actually a robot.
>>344254875
Not that guy but, I thought the same.
>>344254875
>Sean doesn't leak blood
>Mira's eyes are still open when put to sleep

So, seeing all the shitposting, as someone who enjoyed the self contained story of 999, does VLR have a equally decent twist or is it just more of the same? ZTD looks like more of the same.
>>344255942
VLR is solid but not as atmospherically tense
ZTD is just bad
>>344256097
I think VLR was the most tense of the three.
>>344255942
VLR is great.
>>344255942
VLR is pretty self-contained. ZTD is alright too, so just go play them.
>>344255942
They both good.
>>344256220
I personally found the immediate danger of a sinking ship more tense than anything VLR did.
Did anyone figure out what the Steam update was about?
Why can't I open the last safe in the study?
I have everything else, the key is assembled, etc.
But it looks like the keyhole is closed or something
What am I missing?
>>344256429
I forgot all about the sinking ship past the first room. The only tense parts are people going crazy with weapons.
>>344256429
Me too. I even thought the puzzles had a timer on them and if the player doesnt solve them fast, Junpei will drown in the 1st room.
>>344256429
Plus it nails the atmosphere. The sterile, lifeless CG environments really gives off the feeling that you're all alone in the giant ship...except Zero might be lurking anywhere.
>>344255197
>>344256258
oh great, another game memed by cucks
>>344256442
What do the update notes say?
>>344256445
NEVERMIND
I'm retarded
The key looks really big compared to how tiny the actual keyhole is and my screen was dark and I just wasn't seeing the keyhole
>>344256445
Then open it. Easy peasy.
>>344256572
False alarm, seems to be the DLC for it. Don't remember ever installing them, so I guess they just installed themselves.
>>344256502
While that may be true, the problem I had with VLR was that the way the AB game was setup felt like there wasn't any real rush to get anywhere. Just so long people played along and got 9 points each, you knew where to get out instantly.
In 999 though, you had to be on the look out for the exit too, which in my mind made the situation more tense.
>>344256528
Zero didn't seem like that much of a threat. Personally he always felt like that asshole who sat back and twirled his mustache watching 9 other assholes play Mexican Soap Opera bloodsport edition.
At least until end game.
>>344256751
>Just so long people played along and got 9 points each, you knew where to get out instantly.
And that went so well, right?
>>344254180
I do, but only to see what will happen.
Will reviewers give it a "masterpiece 10/10" because of ZE fame, or will they shit on it because its titty animu girls with bright colors? If these ZTD/Uchi threads are these hysterical now then what about if this game ends up on US shores?
>>344256751
The fear of one of them being Zero or Zero's helper planted distrust among them. And as soon as there is a little bit of distrust, there is almost 0 chance of people cooperating with each other.
>>344256910
I know, I know, but for the most part those betray/ally situations felt contrived or just outright padding just to have more endings. Additionally, in my mind the voting process didn't make much sense because the participants had to go into the same elevator, and seemingly use the same voting machine(?), at which point you could just peek over the shoulder of whoever you're voting with.
Dio of course is a case of his own, though.
>>344257051
I felt that the way that was brought up was somewhat forced (particularly in the anime promo), and just retreading the same old ground from 999.
>>344257252
There were six separate voting machines, each with its own individual room. There was no way to see what other people were voting.
>>344250101
First person she killed was called Virginia.
>>344256784
Thinking about it, ZTD Zero was the most active of the three.
>Zero I gets Ace to kill a couple people
>Zero III makes up dumb nicknames and poses for furry porn
>Zero II taunts all the teams near constantly and explains a majority of the Decisions
Does anyone have the passwords for the booklet?
>>344257659
To be fair, Zero 1 was cucked by a Temporal script.
>>344257418
But for instance when Phi and Sigma first vote, they go into the same elevator didn't they?
As far as I saw from the graphics, there was a single screen on which the participants would vote, and not two separate machines like in ZTD.
>>344257895
MURDER
ESCAPE
>>344257938
But they were voting as a team? And the tension comes from the assholes in the other elevators?
>>344257938
Phi and Sigma voted together because they were a pair, on the same team. They got one vote that counted for both of them, and they were playing a solo opponent, who was in a separate room. Did you forget how the whole game worked?
>>344258083
but Phi and Sigma voted against one another the first go-around? That's what I'm trying to get at.
>>344258137
I may have forgotten details here and there, so feel free to call me out.
>>344258250
My memories are foggy as well, but even if you are correct about Sigma and Phi voting against each other in the first round, which I'm fairly certain they didn't, they'd have to be in different elevators.
was this whole trilogy made to fill the plot holes in back to the future?
>>344258250
Sigma and Phi are always a team in the first round. They play against whoever you choose between Luna, Tenmyouji, and Alice. Your memory is off.
what's the third decision in q-team end 1?
I've shot eric, mira, and nobody
I tried myself, too, but that's apparently not allowed.
>>344258619
If you don't know, you haven't played far enough.
>>344258619
>what's the third decision
>I've shot eric, mira, and nobody
Sounds like you've already got the 3rd decision, mate.
>>344258694
Fair enough. I'll just come back to it, then.
>>344258739
I meant 4th
My bad
>>344258365
https://youtu.be/jvIM9Xph5q8?t=585
Well, judging by the promo OVA Sigma and Phi were in the same room, using the same terminal. While the OVA mostly just glossed over some dialogue in the game, I think it had all the other necessary details.
>>344258480
Yeah, first round it's always Sigma and Phi. Beyond that I can't recall if the team members went into different rooms, and I'm guessing they did from what you anons are saying.
>>344254180
Already watched the anime and I don't see any reason to pay a full price for just a definitive ending of the story.
>>344253297
Some people couldn't resist not black boxing Zero's identity.
>>344253374
Quietus would have worked so well with the group execution scenes.
>>344258880
>Well, judging by the promo OVA Sigma and Phi were in the same room, using the same terminal
Then they must've been on the same team. Case closed.
>>344253596
The missing link that completes the saga!

>>344259190
Just checkin thanks my dude
I've stayed off /v/ from released until I've finished it just now. What a fucking non ending. The journey was far, far better than the destination.
999 - Aww yeah! Everything until after the Safe ending! What the hell? A mummy curse? Okay...
VLR - More weird stuff introduced, but things seem to be falling into place. I am now accepting the more magical aspects of the science. Dying to find out more.
ZTD's Limbo - THE WORLD HAS SUFFERED A GREAT LOSS! Let us mourn together.
ZTD's announcement - Pants shall be shat.
ZTD - Gab next to unused to the point of "Why bother including him?", epilogue file cop out instead of a real ending, Q team aka Team Acceptable Loss, and a crappy version of pic related with a heaping helping of crippling paradox. I was thirsty for the whole game and I knew decently early on it wouldn't quench, but it didn't stop me from hoping. You can tell this was a Firefly movie type deal. "Put out what we can so fans have SOMETHING to end it." I'd still recommend it to friends.
>>344254180
Only if there's enough scenarios to justify its purchase.
>>344259226
No problem, just make sure to never come back because spoilers are abound.
>>344255942
I felt VLR explored every nook and cranny possible.
>>344255098
Why does Delta make a sound when being put to sleep? Hes in a wheelchair, he wouldn't fall off, would he?
>>344259260
I agree with you, but
>Gab next to unused to the point of "Why bother including him?"
He's a fucking dog, bro. And they use him several times
>>344259260
>Gab next to unused to the point of "Why bother including him?"
I'm fairly certain he alludes to the time discrepancies by being in multiple places at the same time, though I'll have to pay attention in tomorrow's stream to be sure.
>>344258425
More like they just wanted to mention the unseen Marty 2.
Back to the Future is intrinsically flawed because it uses both theories of time travel (that you can change the past or that everything is predestined)
How do I use the barcode reader, /v/?
What exactly the fuck am I supposed to be scanning if I already have all 3 of their barcodes
>>344259680
>Predestined.
Wait, when did that sort of thing occur? I thought the entire series made it clear that Chaos Butterfly Syndrome was in full effect.
>>344259214
>>344259757
All of them at one time from left to right
>>344259757
Go from one side and scroll to the other
>>344259818
Nothing major that I can remember off hand, but there's stuff like Marty's parents getting the name Marty from meeting Marty and Marty "inventing" Johnny B Goode.
>>344259107
Back to the Future analogy.
You don't have to watch the first two to see the third, but you still should.
>>344259576
>>344259654
He is actually used for the opposite of alluding to the time discrepancies. Gab helped solidify the idea that each team was in different lounges.
My issue with Gab isn't exactly with Gab himself. It is the development teams lack in other ways. I expected some consciousness to be inside / borrow Gab. Kyle, ?, Left... the fucking Snail, anything! Either that or have him far more plot crucial than delivery boy. A mailbox, dumb waiter, or something could've been put in to serve the same purpose. If something like Sean can exist, I'm damn certain they could write in Gab being used as a vessel.

What if Gab is also over 100 years old?
Are Gab's eyes glowing purple underneath all of that fur covering his eyes?

>>344260527
There isn't.
>>344259818
Also, if changing history is possible, then when Marty travels to 2015 at the beginning of BttF2, he shouldn't have a family to investigate because he ceased to exist the moment he left 1985. If Einstein didn't exist for the one minute he was in the Delorean experiment, then it should be the same for Marty and Jennifer leaving for 30 years.

Irony.
I have a problem with Gab, though
The vents are supposed to connect the different wards, so the teams can send him with messages to the other teams
Except there's only one ward, so the vent doesn't actually go anywhere
So what the fuck was Gab doing every time they sent him through the vent
>>344260757
Really? Wasn't the game supposed to have the "best ending"?
>>344260893
It's in the files. The vent actually goes to his "bedroom".
>>344260893
Chilling out in the "Fuckawesome Hall of Gab" that exists on the other side of that vent.
>>344260893
Did you even read the files?
>>344260953
>>344260976
I can't bring myself to load up the game after that ending
At least there's an answer I guess
>>344260213
>He is actually used for the opposite of alluding to the time discrepancies
I'm fairly certain he is, but maybe I'm thinking of separate timelines. We'll have to see.
Also stop taking out your disappointment that ZTD didn't deliver everything VLR promised on the dog. Gab did nothing wrong.
>>344260893
Chilling on a rug. They specify that in the files.
>>344260893
More pressing issue: Where does Gab do his business?
>>344260914
The ending's exactly the same as the anime, exceptYuuta doesn't reject Guriko's plan to sacrifice herself. Everyone goes back to their original bodies, and Guriko dies.
ok, i just realized thatcarlos sacrificed like 6 billion people, most likely including his sister (even though shes the reason why he was at dcom in the first place) JUST to see akane and junpay again like w ow
this guy is really something else
>>344261321
>carlos probabaly also died
>>344261291
So not even the game has an ending where everyone survives? Wow, that's really retard. At least now I know there's no point playing that.
>>344261321
But then, he wouldn't have met those guys!
>>344261321
we weren't memeing when we call him a top tier tard
>>344261192
>no in-depth explanation of where everyone does their business
Sigma and Diana were there for 10 months, so there must have been some place.
>>344261432
>Expecting modern anime writers to be able to write this kind of conflict without offing someone.
Sucks for someone who loves idealistic endings.
>>344261386
yeah that too like wow carlos i love you but what the fuck were you thinking
Is this gonna be the end for zero escape? I don't even know if I want a 4th game after this one, but I just can't accept this is how the series ends...
>>344261586
i sat here and thought about this for a while because it baffles me
>>344261778
Honestly, Uchi needs to take a step back and do another spinoff type game, Make something original and come back to the Zero Escape series with a fresh mind. This game has the telltale signs of running out of ideas.
why does sigma have no chill, i mean just look at his fucking eyebrows
45 FUCKING YEARS OF PREPARATION AND HIS BEST PLAN WAS TO YELL AT PEOPLE ABOUT SIX BILLIONS DEATHS
>>344261778
Doubtful. Zero's plan is basically complete. Hard to see another zero escape being made with nothing to escape from. Even if the religious zealot hasnt been dealt with yet.
>>344261936
I wouldn't mind another "game of death" new series, as long as he drops evey single plot twist he did and tries something new and original.
>>344261952
>sigma is always mad
>delta is always grimacing
>phi has her standard two expressions
>carlos alternates between smug and high as fuck
>>344260847
Time takes awhile to 'catch up' in BttF. Marty didn't disappear right away in 1 because time was 'catching up' with how his parents never met.
anons, I think I'm stuck, care to give a spoiler-free hand?the only fragments I have available and not completed:
are the fourth outcome of the 3 way standoff, my guess is that I have to use Q's name but saying Sean gives error.
that one where Q removes it's helmet to show Eric he didn't kill Mira, then he asks who zero is, and it seems Brother isn't a correct answer
Q-team's force quit box, I don't know the code to start the quantum computer.
I'm guessing I missed one of those answers at some point, unlessI'm supposed to assume either Zero is Delta because he was sent back along with his sister, but the years don't match, or Q is Delta because ????
>>344262481
Yes
>>344262481
you probably need to go back and witness all the other executions
Delta is the answer for your questions
>>344262481
Maybe
>>344262604
I already did
>>344262550
thanks anonWhere the fuck did that old man came from
>>344262481then he asks who zero is, and it seems Brother isn't a correct answer
You have enough information for this
Don't worry about the three-way stand-off, there are no important branches from it
>>344262481
Together we are ten, anon.L, D, A, E, T
>>344262764
conveniently off camera the entire game :^)
>>344262481
Go back and watch all the executions. And get the no executions marker. You have to just do the decision game part over and over until it happens

Rewatch C-team's ending that leads to VLR.

Can someone edit this with Sigma, Diana and Delta, with the last panel being "Where's Kyle"? I would be eternally grateful.

I get that it was foreshadowed with like 2 lines in 999 and vlr, but it was such a stupid reveal. Like, the story of ZTD would make just as much sense if mind hacking wasn't a thing, it wasn't necessary at all.
Why does carlosget all rapey and assholeyall the sudden?
>>344254156
>6 years later
>still tear up every time I hear it
Nothing in VLR or ZTD came close to the quiet, emotional desperation oftranstemporal sudoku rescue, and it saddens me.
Where was my buildup, Uchi
The fragment ruse labyrinth with scattered teams and third person perspective just took me out of it

MAN
What the fuck does eric want from me
When mira is dead he asks me who did it, I've tried eric, mira, and even delta but what does this faggot want
God I fucking hate eric
>>344265537
do nothing
>>344265537Try letting the timer run out
>>344265537
nothing.
So does anyone know what happened toJunpei's jacket?

you can either do nothing or say "i dont know"

it was too hard for them to animate so they axed it
>>344259103
Fucking hell, literally making VLR pointless and Akane and Sigma two dumb fucks.
>>344261321
Wait a second, did Carlos know about Radical-6 and that he'd kill billions like Diana? I never got that impression.
Plus it was my understanding that
>Carlos probably does try to stop Zero in another timeline but we don't see it because it's entirely irrelevant to the VLR timeline
>Uchi needed to make him fuck up
Am I missing something here?
Am I retarded or do the puzzles in the artbook not make sense? Other than the Sudoku one

>>344265941
Anon, it's typical for people to blame the characters whenever the writer fucks up with them. It's better off ignoring them.
I agree though--Carlos acting dumb was a cheap way out of getting Akane and Junpei be alive for the VLR timeline while cutting down on the amount of exposition needed to make it, uh, "work." Carlos is even irrelevant to that timeline afterwards despite having the power to help Akane.
ZTD is my favorite Zero Escape gameThe memes only make it better
Alright, all finished.
Kyle is not present right? I didn't miss him or anything. The writers are just unfair?
>>344267139
he's gab
>>344267139
Now that you are done, check this >>344264629
Also, I mentioned it before
>You can tell this was a Firefly movie type deal. "Put out what we can so fans have SOMETHING to end it." I'd still recommend it to friends.
Admire the effort, enjoyed the game, but didn't deliver on all promised.
>>344267139
No Kyle, no Snake ruses, etc. Writers were too busy making sure theSHIFTingGame was COMPLEX enough.At the end of the day, I'm at least glad Akane and Junpei got limited but explicit closure. The dangling carrot of 999 fanservice got me through this game after VLR's sharp kick to the genitals.
>>344267519
Do the files or whatever they're called explain what happens to Akane and Junpei after that abrupt ending? I haven't read those yet
Why was Snake wearing the Free the Soul robe if he isn't Brother?
>>344268118
bigger question is why Snake is in jail by the time of ZTD.
>>344268118
This will be revealed in the 3rd game. I hope you guys look forward to it. :^)
>>344268009
Yeah.
>>344268009
yeah, they get married and shit but the epilogue files are fanfiction-tier bad, almost wish I hadn't read them
there's just one thing I don't get /v/, if Junpei and Seven destroyed Free the Soul, then how come it still exists in VLR?
Also I'm dling Steins; Gate currently, looking for something to fill that VN hole, is it as good as I've heard it was? How does it compare to ZE?
>>344268351
They destroyed the HQ, not the whole organization.
>>344268351
I guess it's because they thought they destroyed the HQ but in reality brother survived alongside the bulk of the actual cult
also if Mr. COMPLEX MOTIVES formed FtS and released radical 6 JUST to save 2 Billion people, what's with the myrmidons/left clones/everything related to them in VLR?
>>344268351
Interesting take on multiple worlds theory.
>>344267757
What am I deciding?!
I wouldn't have so many problems with ZTD if it didn't conflict so badly with some stuff in VLR, I mean damn
>>344268118
this and Uchi promising we'd know more about Gordain still annoys me
why did the wards need to be the same place beyond MUH TWEESTS?
>>344268118
Because Ace had connections to Free the Soul and Akane had to dress him in something so she chose that since it was probably lying around. This was answered before the third game was even announced.
One thing I found pretty annoying was how Phi being Sigma's goddamn daughter was only touched on for a second and was tossed aside once it served its exposition purpose
I mean goddamn, they're pretty much best friends and this should come as some kind of huge shock and they should maybe talk about it a little bit?
Same thing with Delta, their son is Zero and Brother and they don't have any kind of talk about their family connection
>>344268782
why did Delta create free the soul anyway? Why did they have the doctrines established in VLR if he was just trying to kill that one religious figure?
I never understood something, is the bomb shelter around the same place the Dcom facility was? If not, how was Carlos able to find it later?
>>344268978
Complex motives
>>344268985
It seems to be underneath
>>344259032
>ABANDON THREAD.gif
>>344269060
If it's in the same place, that creates another contradiction.
A while ago someone told Uchikoshi on twitter that the full eclipse won't actually be visible from Nevada. He replied that it was a good catch and that that will be explained in the game:^).
Just finished it. What in the fuck?
>Clover and Alice don't get closure after Akane told them that they could go back with the transporter pod. Zero just ships it off to Fuckitville and that's that.
>Also, Akane froze them because they needed espers... but doesn't bring Carlos nor his fucking sister.
>That other virus literally cancels out Radical-6, but somehow nobody found those files in the VLR ending?
>No mention of anyone but Ace, Seven (who still didn't get a real name) and Lotus.
>Severe lack of Phi. There's one scenario where she just disappeared and there was no explanation for it.
>No D team epilogue?
>Who the fuck made Dio?
It really feels like they just ran out of time to develop it. Even the epilogue files for C team and Q team are ridiculously short and poorly written.
I can believe him becoming an edgelord detective in a few years, but just one? Really? Also why did he have such a faggy english VA?
>>344269340
I share these thoughts and have several other annoyances- enjoyed the game as a thrill ride of puzzles, philosophy/math/pseudoscience 101 and twists, but it feels weaker than either of the other games
>>344269364
>giving the english dub the time of day
About fifteen seconds of the trailer was all it took to warn me away from that business.
>>344268871
Honestly, Phi in general was handled pretty shittily the entire game. She had some good banter in the beginning and near the end but it never even mattered because she was dead/a plot device most of the timeIt's sad because she's my second favorite girl ;_;
>>344269340
"That other virus" doesn't exist (it's literally an anagram for Fabrication), it's just Zero making a metaphor for the casualties of Radical-6 release vs.THE FANATIC's nuclear war
>>344269250
Huh, maybe it's not supposed to be then
I thought Eric's story of a fucked up family life and murdering his brother was neat but it felt kinda wasted because it was just kinda there and he never really went anywhere interesting
>>344269550
>contributes a grand total of (maybe) three fragments worth of effort and a MOON KICK
Fucking hell. They divided the participants into teams and still couldn't find the time to give them either development or meaningful screen time.
Meanwhile we get Eric and Mira being useless and/or antagonists whenever they're present in the room.
can someone explain how Delta was just there without anyone acknowledging it the entire game? So they knew this suspicious old guy was there but never thought once that he might have something to do with anything?
>>344268782
Brother giving Akane a FtS robe seemed unnecessary since she probably had one herself. It was the same one she wore when she kidnapped Sigma.
>>344269250
He didn't say it would be explained in the game. My best explanation is that it was a clue that you were nowhere near the Western Hemisphere when the "Lunar Eclipse" happened.
>>344269794
The amnesia injections must have kept them from being PERCEPTIVE enough to consider it
I'm feeling kinda glum after finishing the game and thinking about it, post some more ZTD memes
I don't know how to continue. I have opened the force quit box of C-team and D-team. I still need to clear a path in the 3-way standoff.
There are no exclamation marks in the flow chart.
>Junpei sarcastically tells Akane to use the morphogenetic field
>Carlos looks at him like he's retarded
>Junpei just shrugs
>Junpei makes a funny hotdog joke in a life-and-death situation

I've only played an hour but this is fucking hilarious. Does it get terrible or something? Why is everyone bitching?

>>344268529

>>344269989

>>344270142
play further and you'll see
>when asked what his favorite new character was, Uchi said Gab was
what did he mean by this?
>>344269989
You gotta get everyone executed during the votes and button fragments.
one area that ZTD did well in was Junpei & Akane fan wish-fulfillment, most of their moments were bretty gud
Akane hardly felt "Machiavellian" though, or anything like her previous 2 characterizations
>>344270471
>>344270137
Thank you.
post dumb pre-ZTD speculation
>>344270108
Everyone's mostly bitching about stuff from VLR being retconned and the ridiculous twists. Plot-wise, it is (or gets) questionable at some points.
The game's funny regardless...unintentional or not.
>>344270963
we got a lot of top quality memes from this game

Is team C getting gunned down a scripted outcome or do I just keep replaying the scene until the 0.46% likely result crops up?
It's not like there was a 'don't roll the dice' option.
>>344271126
I think the next time you do it (in the same vidya session) you'll get all ones
Enough talk about ZTD, let's talk about the stupid shit that happened in 999 or VLR instead.
>quark gets infected in almost every single timeline
>that one scene of him screaming keeps repeating itself>when someone gets 9 BP they get out easily, but when you get 9 BP everyone tries to stop you

>>344271232
the 9 BP situation is annoying (makes a liiiittle more sense when you realize Sigma's old as fuck) but not nearly as bad as some of the problems with ZTD

>>344270881
If I remember correctly, a few people insisted that Carlos's background is a blatant lie - that it's too cleancut and this makes him even more suspicious - in order to say that he's evil and support how he could be a Left clone or Brother.
Their back-up was something along the lines of "this is ZE, no character is to be trusted"

at the end of VLR, there was some "Schrodinger's cat" stuff about how they could go back and time, and they're not mentioned at all in ZTD and might as well not exist
What does 'Anagram' in the coaster cloth mean?
>mfw the transporter was introduced
I knew that shit would have the hell abused out of it for twists and timeline shenanigans
>>344272210
Akane stated in VLR that they had a way to get Clover and Alice back in time right? She was 99% sure talking about the transporter
So my understanding/possibly headcanon, Old Lady Akane was "indirectly" working with Delta for the AB Project to succeed, in order to send Sigma and Phi back to Dcom and for the Delta's plan there too succeed in its manyCOMPLEXgoals.
Dio was sent to Rhizome 9. He thought he was there to stop it, but Akane and Delta knew that he was the 'piranha in the koi tank" that allowed the project to succeed.
One other reason for VLR and it's time loop is that if Sigma and Phi's consciousness don't get sent back, there isn't any reason for them to be at Dcom to begin with. And without 67 year old Sigma being there, he doesn't meet Diana, whom he used to know and love. There is a bootstrap paradox for Sigma and Diana's Love. It only occurs because (Old) Sigma already loved Diana, and then Diana to (young) Sigma.
Does that make sense? Am I just being retarded? Is that fanfiction tier.
>>344272383
Except that it doesn't solve their problem. The originals still stay behind.

This is what I thought as well.
The meeting Free the Soul had with Akane in that timeline is probably Delta explaining his complex motives and giving her a FtS robe, which is why she's wearing it when VLR Sigma gets sent to the past in the true end - a hint to the player that's she's actually working with Brother and FtS.

is it ever answered why in VLR only quark and alice go on suicide mode despite everyone having radical 6?
>>344270562
The """""machiavellian""""" one is the old Akane in VLR. This one is young Akane who got fragmented memories from morphogenetic field. It's explained in the prologue.
Is he just okay with the fact that Akane is freezing clover for decades just to use her in a scheme? Reminder that he went apeshit superhuman mode on Ace after she had
>>344273383
I think because some people are affected faster than others?
>>344273383Everyone does in Clover's ending, right?
>>344273383
It's pretty easy to explain Quark, he's a kid who grew up without much to eat so his immune system should be weaker.
Maybe Alice was just stressed with work so her symptoms got worse. Who knows
>>344273227
She's ontop of Junpei in the demo for 999.
>>344271724
He's a scientist, not a hitman.
>>344272979
Oh right, I forgot that somehow. Still, the meeting must have been what made Akane cooperate with Delta to make VLR and ZTD happen.

This was an excellent opportunity for the game to bring up the Six Degrees of Separation. Uchi must have skipped that Wikipedia page.

It's referring to the random lines of texts on the lobby walls.
>>344269595
Ugh... makes more sense, but the injection ending still feels off to me. The entire inclusion of Mira and Eric just feel off.
Like, why the fuck were they even in the Dcom experiment besides pure coincidence? Mira wasn't working with Zero or anything, she was just fucking around the whole time. She could've been the one to chop up Junpei and do all the other shit behind the scenes. I still don't even know why Delta killed her.

This is what I missed the most in later games' escape segments, the ridiculous amount of extra dialogue and little stories that developed when you examined different things multiple times. VLR had an atrophied version of this if you played on Easy, but I didn't 'cause I thought repeating stages would be more tedious
I was telling you people all the time.
Uchi is a hack who can't write for shit, he was only good when paired with other competent writers during his work on Infinity series.
If you played at least Ever17 before, then nothing in the 999 was really surprising for you, and VLR was a spit to face, because it literally recycled these same plot twists but in a more stupid way.
And ZTD is only decent if you treat it like a dumb B movie.

Something is bothering me. So, old Sigma just stays in the true ending, right? So what happens to young Sigma's consciousness? It seems like young Sigma is just getting fucked over
>>344278860
Young Sigma has to go work on the moon for 45 years to get his happy ending.
>>344278860
Well they fuck their alternate history selves over all the time when they SHIFT so
>>344277624
Yeah. well, you're entitled to your opinion, but a writer honing his craft to get progressively better at it doesn't scream hack to me. And 999 is pretty different to Ever17. That's like saying all Tarantino plots are identical, because his writing style is similar in all of them

This whole concept was underwhelming.
The only decision that had any suspense and real dilemma was a Sigma-chair one. It was used for promos so I was counting, that others will be similar to this.
Also none of this had any real impact because you just shrug your shoulders, go to the flowchart and use every available possibility.

I wish the game had Silent Hill tier ending requirements/variationsincluding one where Gab is controlling Delta with buttons and levers on his back, and Sigma going "SO IT WAS YOU ALL ALONG"
>>344281432
PUSH THE BUTTON LIKE I TOLD YOU TO DIANA
>>344281617
>push the button
>boom
>return to the flowchart
>don't push it this time
What is the point?
I liked the game
Was I MIND HACKed into liking it?
>>344281717
>push button
>destroy transporter
I think they just needed to establish that Diana was retarded enough to make babies while starving
>>344281717
the bad thing about decisions is that they only matter the first time.
If after using a transporter in one of the timeliness, now there are Phis and Deltas everywhere, then why there is no two Carlos in every timeline?
The more you thing about this game, the more plotholes you see.
I can't believe that Uchi looked at this script and told to himself
>this is good
>>344282075
They shouldn't make all decisions life-threating.
Or made it this way: use this shit here it has 50% to cut your arm, but if you don't do this, one person from other team will be killed.
And if your arm is cut, then you must live with this decision and see your character crippled and in the pain, but they don't shift yet, because they must try to learn as much info in this timeline, as they can.
I was so dissapointed that after one boom we had Sigma without arms and eye I was sure, that his state was a result of few decisios.
I'm going to marry Carlos!
>>344282703
Why was heso fucking sexy?
>finally finish the game
>can go to threads without spoilers
>see all these dank memes that i missed out on
I haven't laughed so hard in a while. I hope threads don't die so soon. Anyways, a few questions.
HasDelta been a part of Q team the entire time? Did no one acknoweldge him because he's "deaf"?
How didMira and Eric know Sean's name when Delta was revealed?
Is the snail story actually relevant to the game? I was thinkingthe woman chose to go left, got killed by Mira, Akane's dad got falsely accused and executed, Akane's mom kills herself, that pro surgeon gets in an accident, which is why Sean doesn't get his operation and dies. Though I could be grasping at straws since I don't remember the exact dates of the events.
>>344282997
1st question: yeah, he was there all the time. No one gave a shit about him because it was convenient for the plot twist, but retarded in story terms.
2nd question: they knew it all the time but they never used it because it was convenient for the plot twist
3rd question: yeah, it was hinted, that something like this happened. And women was probably Eric mother.
Fucking snail, huh?
>>344282703
Well, I'm gonna marry BOTH Carloses
How do i get the all the quest files trophy? Or like in VLR it tells you how far off you are?
If you delete your save and go straight down the Force Quit box timeline, does Delta really comment on it in the ending?
HOLY SHIT.
The ending was so retarded that I don't know if I should cry or laugh.
>>344283531
I was on the same boat, /v/ helped me laugh through this crisis, at least memes are decent.
>>344283649
It was a literal ruse cruise.
>>344263348
See, it didn't shock me as I remembered VLR mentioning that Brother had psychic powers.
Just everything else, from his design, to his "just as planned" complexities, to essentially just making the whole thing being him getting his mom and dad to fuck (by killing his sister) was just so disappointing.
I feel it would have been better if he literally was doing the same "kill 6 to save 2" plan and just leaving it as that. Twisting it again to "no see now you guys can save all 8" was fucking dumb and made everything else pointless.
Hell, Sean's fucking plan of 'Take Mira back in time to stop the first killing now she realises the gravity of the situation' seems like it would change everything anyway
What did you dislike about the ending?
The ending is actually great, you've just been mindhackedby the /v/ hivemindinto believing otherwise
>>344283927
Diana was different than Luna.
She snapped easy when they were locked for a few weeks only.
And she was bitter as fuck under her kind disguise, her dislike and hatred toward happy people that share their lives on social media etc.
She was probably addicted to toxic men, just look who she married, and whole "h-he was different before marriage" is a bullshit that girls like her convince herself into.
>>344284089
They were trapped there with limited food and no one knew they were there except someone they believed had betrayed them and murdered people. It's Sigma who is abnormally calm in that situation
>>344283762
It didn't help for me that he looked like an evil Steve Jobs
>>344283927
No Kyle, and other missing plot points we expected to see based on past Q&As
>>344284226
>They were trapped there with limited food and no one knew they were there except someone they believed had betrayed them and murdered people
Yeah, it was also perfect opportuinity to make children and then look as their starve to death just after birth.
>>344284292
He did that on purpose so he could tell Sigma, see Dad, I'm Zero, the "Apple" didn't fall far from the tree.
>>344283927
What does the smaller Phi mean
>>344284347
Sigma waited 42 years to sleep with Diana again. Cut him some slack.
>>344284389
Still the same great char, but not enough screentime.
so who put the Soporil root in the library?
>>344284089
It was pretty satisfying when Zero called her out on her bullshit whenshe gave C-team and Q-team a nice shower and denied pressing the button.

Good stuff, especially your Carlos
>>344284812
Damn, you nailed Carlos' face perfectly, even with the minimalism.
>>344284669
But it's implied that he mind hacked her to do it, and also to send her back inside after she escaped. For what purpose is too complex to understand.

Why Delta killed Gab.
And how was this a good news.
Seriously, all memes aside, this shit was too complex for me to understand.
Anyone know what was the meaning of this action?
>>344284812
>12in
>18in
Pretty good.
>>344285097
Yup I know he's used to it, so it's normal. But it's not abnormal for Diana to lose it.
>>344285171
this confused me as well. What the fuck was that for, you old fuck?
Where were the bathrooms?
Did Gab get the only one in his private house?
>>344285171
He wanted the group to shift but they would feel guilty cause Gab would be left behind so he killed him in advance to let them know they leave no one behind.
>>344285171
Every single time, I keep saying this every fucking single time
The death of Gab is inconsequential, either Gab dies by shotgun, or the facility going kaboom.
If Gab was still alive they'd all be "BUT WHAT ABOUT GAB WE CAN'T LEAVE GAB HERE WE HAVE TO SAVE GAB"
Good news
he's dead
>>344285359
D team is still alive?
Lol fuck it, let's boom the entire facility and shift
>>344285326
>feel guilty cause Gab
Dumber than Keanu.
>>344271232
Sigma is a bad player, he's too blunt and honest. Others trick people to get to the door or just sprint to it without a moment's hesitation. Plus remember that it's mostly Dio (young, fit, crafty), Phi (moon jumping powers), and K (giant fucking robot monk) who do it.
>>344285464
I want to kiss Akane on theass
>>344285464
Actually the announcer precises to evacuate the reactor room, not the building. So they might be fine.
Need help to end this ruse cruise. In the 3-way standoff I have shoot Eric, Mira and Delta. But there still one option to unlock.
>>344271406
I unironically thought Gab would be Zero
>>344285326
>>344285359
I guess that makes sense. He is the reason Q team hesitate leaving one time, why Sean doesn't leave, and Sigma & Diana wasted a third of their food on him.
>>344271232
>>344271554
gee whiz if only a skip button existed in VLR!
why did diana stay in the bunker for the team D button press ending?
>>344285587
choose "Nobody"
>>344285573
No no no
Don't rim the Akane.
>>344285326
>>344285359
How do you know Gab isn't a SHIFTer too?
>>344285601
Actually, Q team hesitates cause Delta is also chained.
If you rewatch the scene you can see that there are 2 chains, one for Gab and one for Delta.
>>344285662
how was Seanable to jump if he's just a robot?
>>344272210
>implying Kyle, Luna, and Quark willexist in the ZTD timelineNever made,Never Made, Most likelynever bornrespectively. Even though if I was Sigma I'd stillmake Luna as she's a thousand times better than droopy faced Diana
>>344285662
>even the dog can shift
Delta is a huge failure, just like his father.
>>344283391
I'm bored enough that I'll actually check this.This concept of deleting all saves to unlock a new ending on a fresh save is rarely used as is.
>>344285662
Even if he is, the group has no way of knowing that.
>>344285723
Sean has access to the Quantum Computer, which functions in a superposition as if an anchor in that timeline, arching out to all the other anchors of itself in all the other timelines.
He's able to send and download his entire information log to the quantum computer.
It's quite literally just a mechanized version of the morphogenetic field.
>>344285750
Akane has the transporter in VLR, so she can just copy them all to that timeline, she even said so to Alice & Clover.
>kyle was ignored and forgotten
Then how were they able to stop radical 6? Wasn't the whole point of him coming to be the deciding factor?
>>344285723
He's a computer that has access to every timeline at once.
>>344273383
Radical 6 has fourth wall breaking powers and makes the characters aware of the player, Alice and Quark realize just how hated they are by the player and filled with self-loathing they try to kill themselves.
>>344285723

The drink decision was fucking retarded

>>344278280
>FB_IMG_1467968627230
>>344286123
>>344250101
I believe Phi has an X-Pass called FUTURE or something as well, overheard in an ending where Diana dies?
What did i fucking say, japs can't write good endings. This was even worse than 999.
>>344253374
I am certain they don't reuse most of the 999 songs mostly because they would have had to remix them and just chose to reuse 70% of the soundtrack of VLR. Which was already 50% 999 song remixes.
>>344285884
Radical 6 was hardly even a factor. Either:
> Q Team inject themselves, and Mira kills everyone before leaving.
> Mira gets angry because Zero sat her next to a bomb, so injects Phi in revenge
Every other timeline it's ignored.
>>344280863
>Danganronpa 1 & 2
Just keep in mind that 2 is way stronger than 1, so if you were on the fence about 1 I highly recommend giving the second a shot too, but be aware that the 2nd spoils a lot from the first and is best played after the first.
>>344265941
Sigma didn't shut the fuck up about radical-6 during their Dcom time before the decision game began.
So did any of you play Zero Escape : Furry version?
It's pretty damn good.

Could someome explain to me how carlos was able to save junpei and akane in the radical 6 break out timeline?
>This is the final Decision Game Carlos. What will you do now ? Will you let Zero Escape : Zero Time Dilemma ?
Fucking seriously Uchi 4 years for this
>>344287441
By blowing shit up.
>>344287441
He went back 10 months and waited until the game started. Then he broke in after D-team escaped instead of stopping Zero.
>>344287441
He used the alien transporter to make a clone 6 months in the past and instead of preventing the whole thing from happening he decided to wait until the last minute.
>>344287669
But Delta was in possession of the transporter, why weren't they watching it at all 10 months ago?
>>344287294
>playing in Jap
retard
>>344287441
why didn't carlos just save himself as the game started so there were 2 carloses
>>344287764
Delta knew he would come and let him go.
New thread when
>>344287656
>>344287669
What a retard.
And i don't understand, sigma himself said he didn't even know how to use the machine and guessed. How the fuck was someone like carlos able to use it sufficiently?
>>344282997
>see all these dank memes that i missed out on
Say what you will about the quality of the game, but the meme potential of ZTD is absolutely legendary
>>344287840
He got murdered offscreen in other timelines. That's the only thing that makes sense
>>344287927
Sigma only put in random numbers because they had no time.
>>344287927
Sigma had 5 minutes until they were injected so he used it randomly. he's the one who shows Carlos how to use it later on and Carlos had time to set it up properly.
>>344284656
Comfiest. Puzzle. Ever.
