Eric is my favourite character. Why the gently caress are he and Mira in the game? It's not like some "I saw you so you had to be here" like in 999.

Yeah, the romance between Sigma and Diana is pretty awkward. Doesn't help that it starts with Sigma talking about domestic abuse, and then Diana come on Sigma due to stress of being trapped in a bomb shelter. Alongside Eric's and Mira's relationship and uh :stare:

The study room is probably the best puzzle room with Eric's reactions to the items, the usage of the doll portraits and having the best ending attached to it.

Eric and Mira are the piranha in the fish tank. Eric presents an obvious source of danger (pointing shotguns in everyone's faces) and Mira presents a secret source of danger.

Isn't that only for shifting? I'm not even sure if Sean is technically shifting or his quantum computer is just so good at processing possibilities that it technically knows everything

Anyone noticed that Sean never bleed when injured? I wanted to think it it was because it was to avoid a higher rating but yeah it was kinda obvious he's a robot.

it's probably just an allusion, like how there's a lady with big breasts that's never really that important in the plot other in every game.

Half of c-team rooms are basically "gently caress you, you all die now".

I really wanted to see what would happen if Eric was forced to kill Mira.

I feel like it's supposed to be a joke like Eric marrying Mira because he's so crazy and Sean breaking Mira out of jail for more time travel shenanigans but it's just a bit too weird given Eric's tragic past.

who doesn't know what's the morphogenetic field is in this day and age?

Also, I expected a lot more of the decisions to be "if you press this, you can save a member of your team but you kill a member of the other teams". Most of the decisions are underwhelming to be honest.

Sigma is awfully useless in this game. gently caress up with the button in the healing room, killing Phi is needed for the true ending and creating the big bad.

And then Diana's journey in the VLR timeline:

-Get abused by husband
-Divorce him
-Endure harassment from him
-Go to DCOM, suffer through ZTD
-End up causing a pandemic that kills 6 billion people
-Four months later, finds a young Sigma that has probably no idea who she is
-Follow him to the moon and fall in love, only to die after three years

so she knows two Sigmas? what?

I have a couple of problems with the game.

1. Akane freaking out about Junpei dying or w/e, literally a year after she had him kidnapped and locked in a compound where he was continually exposed to danger, all so that she could save herself.

2. I loved the Q/Delta/Zero reveal but some things about it don't really make much sense. He's the leader of Free the Soul so in the VLR timeline he goes and makes lots of clones of his dead adoptive brother, then tries to sabotage the Nonary game on the moon because I guess his motives are ~~complex~~.

well, there was never any bombs in the bracelets anyway. the one bad dude was ace, and crazy clover.
