Administrators Amethyst Posted June 19, 2016 Administrators Share Posted June 19, 2016 I just saw on tumblr that apparently the outcome of decisions is randomized?? I haven't seen anything official about that, does anyone know what that's about? I'm sort of wary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nepeta100 Posted June 19, 2016 Author Share Posted June 19, 2016 (edited) sure I would be happy to fill you in for example there is a moment of the game where there is a gun that you can shoot or not and there is a 50 50 chance that the gun shot will actually kill the person Acording to the wiki randomness chance and unfairness are a core part of the game For more on this you can check out the randomized outcomes page on the zero time dilemma page on the zero escape wiki Sorry my computer is having problems copy pasting Edited June 19, 2016 by nepeta100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartar Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I'd be hyped, had I actually played Virtues Last reward... I really need to get myself a 3DS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueMoonIceCream Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 oooh, what is this? I've never heard of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Amethyst Posted June 19, 2016 Administrators Share Posted June 19, 2016 Zero Escape is a trilogy of visual novel-puzzle games, each featuring a cast of 9 characters trapped in a survival game. They have to work together-- or sometimes, against each other-- to escape, and find out who the mastermind behind the game is. The first game is 9 hours, 9 persons, 9 doors, or just 999, for DS (also now on Steam) Second is Virtue's Last Reward for 3DS and Vita. I strongly recommend not playing this until you've finished 999. The third game, Zero Time Dilemma, was almost not produced to VLR's poor sales. However the very dedicated fans of the series were able to rally enough support, and the creator's company allowed him to produce the last game after all. It releases on 6/28. The hype is real.

nepeta100 Posted June 19, 2016 Author Share Posted June 19, 2016 same here but I thought doing a thread closer to the games release was a better idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FraRPetO Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I'm getting it on Vita. 999 is gonna be released on Steam as well, so I hope they release it on Vita as well just so I can have the whole collection in one system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueMoonIceCream Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I'm definitely going to try this out it reminds me of danganronpa based on ame's description and profile picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nepeta100 Posted June 20, 2016 Author Share Posted June 20, 2016 who here that has been following the game at least in terms of characters which one is your favorite so far out of the main nine and zero try to not pick phi, sigma, or junepei Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartar Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Junpei? Pft... Obviously Akane. (Haven't play VLR) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Amethyst Posted June 20, 2016 Administrators Share Posted June 20, 2016 I'm definitely going to try this out it reminds me of danganronpa based on ame's description and profile picture If you like Dangan Ronpa you will almost certainly like this. They're the same company, and the creators of each are friends and coworkers, and have helped each other out in writing each of them. In fact, in DR1 there was even an explicit reference to 999. And in SDR2 the part where you play as a certain fuccboi was directly modeled after Zero Escape's style of puzzles. who here that has been following the game at least in terms of characters which one is your favorite so far out of the main nine and zero try to not pick phi, sigma, or junepei junpei got cute tho but yeah same akane is still fair game?? mila also looks pretty covered in blood but then who doesn't so idk.

Lord Bagel Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 I just saw on tumblr that apparently the outcome of decisions is randomized?? I haven't seen anything official about that, does anyone know what that's about? I'm sort of wary. From what I have read some of the choices are randomized with the example at one point sigma has a gun pointed at has head with 3 out of 6 bullets in the chamber. It's a 50% chance for him to die in that run without any way of stopping it. It seems that design choice is to add on to the theme that life isn't fair.

TheJawsOfDeath Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 I have 999 for 3ds and Virtues Last Reward for Vita but I'm saving them for a rainy day. I finished both Danganronpas and the first 3 Phoenix Wright games so I can't exhaust my entire supply of "logical" games, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiLimiter Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 This is a series I've been meaning to get into for a while now since I heard that it was made by the same people who made the Danganronpa games. I've just been waiting for a Steam release for the first game (I have a DS and all that, but I kinda just want to play it on PC to see if they can transition it over to PC as well as they did with Danganronpa). Trying my best to remain spoiler-free of it since I'm assuming that it's like Danganronpa in regards to experiencing the story. I got spoiled on a few parts of the Danganronpa games--except for Ultra Despair Girls, which I voluntarily decided to just read about--that I'm sure would've surprised me, so I'm trying to not make that mistake again. So, kinda made a rule for myself that if I see a character's name pop up in any discussion for this series, I'm just going to stop reading at that point until I get to play it.

Tartar Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Yup, 999 is that kind of game. Some major events at the end of the game are such mindscrews and so well thought out that they'll make you reevaluate the whole game and the way you played it. In general it's a really well written and fun/tragic/mindscrewy game that anyone should play, it's really a gem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Bagel Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Some reviews have come out for the game and all of them I have read say it's amazing. I'm pretty hype not going to lie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nepeta100 Posted June 23, 2016 Author Share Posted June 23, 2016 (edited) Yeah i also heard about the positive reviews but I'm not going to read them because I don't want risk being spoiled any more about the game edit the game comes out tomorrow please put spoilers where appropriate guys Edited June 28, 2016 by nepeta100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Bagel Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 The 28th arrives and the question is should I buy the game for my 3ds or wait for the PC version for better loading times and such, what a..... dilemma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
