Etrain Oddessy Mystery Dungeon has actually killed me in the first dungeon vs never ever ever in pokemon mystery date. Its got a slick interface, good simple look and music that will put you into a trance.

I'd say you should check out the Ghost Trick port then because that's a way better port, but that doesn't work on iOS8 so that's out.

What are you talking about? It worked perfectly well on ios8 a few months ago. I mean, you don't get the same fun of jabbing a stylus into your screen to frantically switch to trick mode, but it worked just fine.

Also yes play ghost trick it's fun.

I thought you just had to beat all the available levels and they unlocked automatically.

Don't listen to this dude. 999 is good and crazy. Not crazy good but just good and then you can play Virtue's Last Reward which is even more crazy and good.

The fact that people think 999 has good writing is as laughable as the writing itself and the plot twist, while kind of creative, does nothing to help this

I don't think anyone says or thinks 999 has good writing, its a VN. Its the video game equivalent of the kind of young adult novels that get turned into movies nowadays.

999 is loving terrible. It's poo poo and dumb and everyone will swear up and down you need to beat it multiple times for it to make sense and then when do you and still say it's awful they'll call you an enormous idiot for beating a game you don't like multiple times.

It's like reading a loving book-- I want to see how it ends before completely writing it off, jesus christ!

virtue's last reward is stupid but actually good and surprisingly smart-ish and you don't actually need to know poo poo about 999 to play it

You get used to it. I don't
even see the code. All I see
is Ipecac, Scapular, Polyphemus...


999 has an admittedly really dumb "trap" that's a real kick in the crotch if you happen to run into it first. Which Kaubocks unfortunately did.

It's not for everyone. If you especially don't like visual novels or puzzle games then don't even bother. Also if it's between 999 and Ghost Trick just loving play Ghost Trick (says the guy who has played Ghost Trick but not beaten yet)

Just read the LP for 999, it's basically like playing the game only a fuckton faster since you don't need to solve the puzzles and can read faster than the two lines of dialogue at a time the game gives you. It really is terribly written, there's no loving agency at all and everything takes three times longer to explain than it needs to, but I still feel like I got something out of it by the end.

... also I need to catch up on the VLR LP, I started that like, two years ago? And I'm like two dozen pages behind by this point. Might as well buy the game to catch up now.

Anyway play Ghost Trick.

No seriously play Ghost Trick it's not like you have anything better to do today.

I have an average play time of 8 hours on Ghost Trick because I played it all in one sitting and didn't want to stop. If you haven't played Ghost Trick you should.

Also I personally like 999 but your opinion on VLR is probably gonna be the same as your opinion on 999 so don't bother with it if you didn't like the first one. It also ends on a cliffhanger for a game that may never exist so save yourself the pain.

999 was interesting but I ran out of steam before I played through all the endings. I still keep that preorder watch thing they sent me with it on the shelf though. Looks neat.

Edit: Then again I can apparently sell that for $150 on e-bay...

999 would be a lot better with a flowchart like VLR has so you're not replaying 4/5th of the game a lot.

The first ending I got was the coffin ending. Sucks that I thought things were starting to finally get interesting but NOPE.
