Was anyone else really confused and frustrated that Sean didn't try to kill Mira while she was digging out Eric's heart? I guess it makes sense in retrospect but I thought for sure she was gonna kill him afterwards and that he was an idiot for just standing around and watching.

I assumed Mira was going to be the serial killer and was preying on Eric which meant Sean wouldn't get hurt in that situation. He could have just been so terrified that he couldn't act in the moment but he would probably only shoot if she then turned to kill him.

It least come up with a new argument. I wasnt completely satisfied with the ending, but your (you) worthy antics have become what is known as shilling by this point.

Q21: It was revealed he didn't escape because the release was prevented. If it didn't happen his situation obviously didn't change
Q22. Literally who cares

Q50. Nothing, because the pandemic was stopped

Q56. Still salty famalam. I'll give you that

All Q: Obviously answered with a stock question and if you have to blame somebody blame the shoestring budget that the game was made on preventing the answers from being realized.

Was there anything else i can do after the whole credits where Delta tosses Carlos the gun? Like some sort of epilogue or anything? The flow charts all completed, i only have the true end credits and that it.

Not unless you want dating sim shit without the actual sex part

The mystery part of Never7 only serves to explain one aspect of Ever17 and is otherwise disconnected from the rest of the series, so just go through Remember11 and then decide if you really really want Never7

>>
>>344926350
>>344926386
Ahh gotcha. Yeah I got the impression that I didn't need to play never7. Thanks. Pretty strange to lock the true ending by having you do all the routes though. Since this is a romance vn, it feels a little like betraying your waifu.

God listening to this makes me miss it even with all the chicken sandwiches and filler crap

It also helps that they only used it for the main menu and like one time in each route, if that, so it didn't get overplayed
>>
>>344917843
Just finished lads, honestly quite disappointed with the end.

I really enjoyed the mid-game and the twist with Delta, especially after seeing the foreshadowing but holy shit I wish we'd got some closure on ?/BW.

Is it actually a dating sim? I love those.
it's a vn without sex, isn't it?

But every route ends in a girl, no?
>>
>>344926652
>It also helps that they only used it for the main menu and like one time in each route, if that, so it didn't get overplayed
cough Blue Bird Lamentation cough

>>344926654
Yeah mid-game I honestly had moments where I was thinking to myself "holy shit this is the best game in the series" only to have it dragged down by the end.

If anything the ending was disappointing for the opposite reason VLR's and 999's were, those two just went full retard whereas ZTD plays it super safe and just ends it on this super anticlimactic note.

I feel like they were definitely strained for time and money on this one and imo the cracks start to show in Apocalypse, up to that point it feels like they're building up to some big climactic twist but then Zero just drops the terrorist thing on you right there

Man. I have a lot of questions.

What's the significance of the alien stuff in ZTD?

Where'd "???" go and what was his significance?

I feel like the reveal of Delta being Brother was rather low-key. Does that reveal have more gravitas than it seems?

There's not something I'm missing beyond Carlos pointing the gun at Delta, right? Nothing beyond that?

Why were Carlos and Eric even there? I know Carlos is a shifter and all, but does he have some kind of relation to other characters beyond just a guy who can jump through timelines? And Eric just seems like a random unstable spaz they pulled in because he knows Mira.


Despite all the questions, I had a lot of fun with it. Glad it finally came out.

Speculation? I thought it was pretty well laid out in the TIPS.
At the beginning of the game you are shown Satoru's sister directly after having been told about Keiko. Becasue of this the player, aka Blick Winkel, mistakes Satoru's sister for Keiko which causes some unspecific horrible thing to happen to her. Satoru set the whole thing up to trap Blick in a time loop and get his revenge

The celery and peanut butter thing was actually in the game.
>>
>>344930126
Close, but no

Satoru's sister is Keiko and was given DID by Self, and Self is not Blick Winkel but another entity entirely. Satoru set everything up to create an infinite loop that sucked in Self, and everything would culminate with him replacing Self and essentially becoming a god capable of undoing his sister's eradication from her illness.

I actually recommend the infinity series timeline on tlwiki for some canon information

>>344930298
>Keiko was given DID by Self
Is there a reason why? He doesn't give anyone else DID.
>>
>>344930491
Again, on the timeline, it's mentioned that there are a number of similar incidents at the time that Sayaka kills her own parents as a result of her DID.

Personally, I'm of the belief that if there's a Self there must also be an Other due to all the duality themes and the presence of twins.

We don't see Sigma and Phi's relationship change after they learn the truth, and its a crime that D-Team doesn't get an epilogue.

Akane and Junpei's wedding should have been a big, touching moment but it's just some log file.

It's probably because whatever happens with Sigma is going to be awkward. He either stays in his young body with the woman he loves and his daughter, leaving Luna, Kyle, and Lagomorph on the moon and basically fucking over his younger self from ever having a happy life, or he returns his consciousness to the moon to be reunited with his creations/clone son where he belongs and young Sigma gets to enjoy his youth without going through the apocalypse but he'll have to be introduced to Diana and learn that they had children together and Phi is their daughter and also they have a 124-year-old son who kind of caused this whole mess. It's a bit similar to the Back to the Future scenario Akane was going on about.

I'm annoyed the game wasn't really about stopping the Radical-6 outbreak at all, that and the fact that Akane (who at this point is like a time-travelling immortal genius God) didn't build off her role in VLR at all and acted like a fucking idiot for most of the time.

Are you retarded? How do people still not understand how timelines work after 3 games?

You're mixing three different timelines here.. Akane's entire point with Back to the Future was that it's NOT how it works.

There's no Sigma that gets left behind on the moon, and there's no young Sigma in a young body that doesn't live through the apocalypse.

>>344933685
In the prologue she says she only has visions of the future and doesn't get clear messages.

Something I don't get is if the whole point of the game was Diana/Sigma having Phi/Delta, why was Delta there in the timeline where they won the coinflip? I get that the transporter would put him back before any of them diverged, but wouldn't the Delta in the Payoff timeline not have fulfilled his main goal of being born?

I'm probably thinking about this entirely the wrong way, but it really doesn't make sense to me.

I re-read R11 in preparation for ZTD and i came to this conclusion
The mind-transfer phenomenon is not caused by the space-time transfer. Enomoto says the computer at sphia is responsible for the events of the game, but the player assumes that was a lie after finding the real device in Hotarubi. He was in fact, not lying, and the supercomputer at sphia is basically the device that allows alpha, omega, inubushi, hotori, satoru, and kokoro to think. This explains why satoru says that he feels as if his thoughts don't originate in the brain of the borrowed body, this also explains why kokoro can think clearly in satoru's body even though it was drugged heavily.

Now that I think about it, what the fuck happened during the timelines where the guy in the wheelchair wasn't there? I.e. the one where he tells Akane to go and find him in another timeline, or the one with Sigma and Luna fucking in the pod

I liked the first 90% so much, but the ending was disappointing. It's hard to recommend someone play ZE3 when Ever17 is just a superior version of it.

Church is literal pronunciation, popularized due to a combination of lack of knowledge and ease of accesibility.

Classical varies with pronunciation, and certain letters are non-existant

For example
>Vive Hodie
>Church= Vee-Vay Ho-Die
In Classical, V's are actually treated as W's The reason W looks like it does is that it's actually a secondary pronunciaton representing classical V, so 2 Vs combined into one symbol.
And a few other quirks result in it becoming

Actually, the real Satoru at Hotarubi directly tells you that the supercomputer at SPHIA is only for data collection and that the black ball is the real transfer device. You'd have to assume that one of them is lying. Who's more likely to be lying? Enomoto, who would obviously want to conceal a third area, or Satoru, who knows his plan is already fucked simply from Self showing up in the white room? Enomoto, in my eyes.

I think the consciousness exchange is a direct result of being a twin. Older twins can exchange with other older twins, and younger twins can exchange with other younger twins. Of course, there's nothing explicitly stating that Kokoro is an older twin and Hotori is a younger twin, but it's definitely within the realm of possibility. The same thing applies to Enomoto, but you can also assume that if someone is seated in the wrong body they'll undergo no further consciousness transfers unless the one they switched with is in one of the other transfer areas. Inubushi would take the place of Sayaka, a younger twin, and Self would take the place of "Satoru", an older twin, in another older twin's body.

The question then becomes who Enomoto's younger twin is, and my answer would be Yuni. As for why Yuni wouldn't transfer in the younger twin trinity, that'd be due to him being present in two out of the three zones and cancelling himself out.

There are actually quite a lot of hints to the existence of a 4th person on Q team sprinkled around the game. Nothing overt, but it's there. You just don't know to look for it until it's too late.

Sean never has a portrait in the status screen. And if you check the status after the twins are born It will show Q as being alive.
The game is never referred to as a Nonary Game, but instead Decision Game. Deci meaning tenth.

So you're saying he should switch places with some random Sigma from a Radical-6 timeline(thus splitting the timeline and creating ANOTHER doomed timeline where 6 billion more people die), make that clueless Sigma take his place among a bunch of people he doesn't know including children he didn't know he had, and then proceed to live through the apocalypse for a SECOND time?

I don't think you have half a clue how this stuff works.

I guess there is a lot of hints, but it felt like there were too many things left in that made it seem like there couldn't have been a 4th person.
I did pick up on a few of the things that hinted at it.
Like, for example, the room with the FBR only having 3 slots for authentication, or during Sean's conversation with Zero being in third person. The first would instantly rule out in my head that there could even be a 4th person, and the second would instantly rule out that the player is Zero.

The amount of hints was fair, but at the same time they really should have gone through the script and removed or changed some of these things.

>>344935587
I personally don't believe in that twin theory and I think it's a bit overcomplicated, though I do acknowledge that there are a very large amount of twins in the story.
I don't think either satoru or enomoto are lying, the computer in sphia is, in a way, collecting data as all of the memories that kokoro and satoru experience are being recorded on the terabyte disk. And, of course, I'm not saying the device in hotarubi isn't a transfer device, just that space-time teleportation alone cannot cause the personality exchange phenomenon.
I tried to look at what could be causing the personality switches from a practical perspective, as in, how specifically does the personality transfer function? With that twin theory, the specific mechanics remain unsolved but if you supposed the computer at sphia is recording the data collected from the character's bodies and making decisions based on that, each character's personality can then be said to "exist" in the computer rather than the body which fits the theme of later uchi's and nakazawa's later works.
The last thing i want to say is that the BGM "Thanatos" plays when satoru is kicking the computer at sphia, if you check the tips, thanatos is described as the desire for self-destruction.
