Thinking more about the ending I think the new characters blow Carlos is alright after his shifting shenanigans but he's still pretty boring. Mira's boring, Eric's boring. Sean is OK.

NJ Deac posted:This may be just me forgetting a plot point because I played this part way too late in the evening, but in the twins ending where Sigma and Diana are stranded (execute Q -> incinerate phi -> Monty hall -> teleporter room), Akane escapes, right? At that point, she should still know Sigma and Diana are alive and trapped. Is there any reason she wouldn't send help other than the fact that she is kind of a dick? Presumably she was injected with the memory drugs again and forgot

Oh geez I didn't realize Sean stayed behind for both Q and Gab, nor that Gab was chained to Q's chair That does raise the question of why Eric and Mira didn't try to take Q with them through the X door

Cake Attack posted:lol i thought the exact same thing was going to happen I was extremely disappointed when i got that achievement and Q took off his helmet again and he was still....a headless robot. Why doesn't he have a head anyway? It makes it harder to emotionally connect with him! In my opinion.

Also I was genuinely surprised Clover is not in this game, nor even mentioned. They remembered Lotus! but not Clover. Probably the best in hindsight.

dmboogie posted:Clover being mentioned is also probably why Snake wasn't mentioned, which makes me sad. I know Clover went over his deal in VLR, but he was my favorite dude from 999 and it'd be nice to at least have his existence acknowledged. Seven and Junpei buddy cop side game? I'd play it.

The thing I don't get is: did they toss out all the assumed poo poo about Brother/Free The Soul? What happened to Free the Soul being created because he was disillusioned with humanity and his brother Left being murdered? Or him making clones of his brother, and trying to usher in a new race of humans with his teachings. Was it all bullshit?

Did Sigma and Phi even jump once? They were the SHIFT masters in VLR but it was more Team C shifting this time.

I'm unsure why people think Delta was making every choice, but there's no way he's not responsible for the "No it wasn't me! I swear!" choices.

The fact that Mira's first victim was Eric's mother is apparent when you get the crossbow ending. Which is like the first thing I got in my game.

Tired Moritz posted:So Eric married his mom's murderer that indirectly leads to his brother's death? what it is a bit bizarre how forgiving he is I'd almost say he still doesn't know, but they have all their memories at the end of the game so he married a girl who murdered his mom and also him in several timelines

Mr. Fortitude posted:Is it just me or does there seem to be way less puzzle rooms in ZTD compared to both 999 and VLR? I haven't counted the exact number of puzzle rooms, but it definitely felt there should have been at least two or three more spread throughout the game. I think there are 13? It's just this game didn't have one of those big smorgasbord rooms like VLR did. Maybe.

Also I genuinely think all of the puzzle rooms in ZTD were pretty easy, and probably the easiest in the series. The only room I had trouble with was the Transporter Room and to be honest I have no idea how to properly solve the ALIEN LANGUAGE conversion puzzle legitly because I just cheated it 2 hours in

This post in the main thread is also something I agree with:Mordiceius posted:I think what makes this game suffer (so far at least) is that there's no interplay between the three teams. I want to see Sigma and Junpei in the same room or Phi and Mira, etc etc. In 999 and VLR, we had plenty of interplay moments where all the team members are together. This doesn't have it, and so far I feel that it suffers for it. Maybe it'll happen eventually, but i'm almost 15 hours in without that and I miss it. I felt the tension in ZTD still never really hit VLR or 999 levels because they weren't mostly working as one group. I mean, the game itself kind of prevented it, but I'm not sure if it was the best choice. I'm actually surprised how little the other teams interact in the final product, even via Gab.

I didn't find Never7 super boring, it's just more of a traditional romance VN with a spattering of sci-fi at the end. It was 1999, and I think that kind of "generic" visual novel breaking into some hard sci fi was a new concept, so that's why it's an interesting footnote. I might actually like Never 7 more than Remember 11, because Remember 11 does not have an ending!!!

"Dio will be in [ZTD], just not as the man we know" Still want an explanation for this, Uchikoshi. Unless at the Q/A he's just going to throw out "...Oh yeah, and Carlos is Left"
