I’ll snatch the voice acting trivia post this time. Diana is voiced by Eden Riegel here. Her other roles include Estelle from Tales of Vesperia, Devola and Popola in NieR: Automata (under a pseudonym, Claudia Lenz), and Isabeau in Shin Megami Tensei IV. Phi is the only one of these three to have their voice actress reprise the role from VLR. She is voiced by Karen Strassman, who also voiced Aigis in Persona 3 (and spinoffs), Kallen in Code Geass, Rouge the Bat in the Sonic franchise starting with Colo(u)rs, and all the Annas in Fire Emblem. Sigma is voiced by Matt Mercer in this game. In VLR he was unvoiced to not spoil the plot twists, but there was an OVA in which he was voiced by Troy Baker instead. Mercer’s other roles include

Junpei posted:I've played this game so I know what happens, and I'll keep quiet, but for now my vote is on Healing Room for D-Team. This is where I'm voting too. I'm a sucker for D-Team and the Healing Room is honestly the best fragment to illustrate something someone said that I can't find.

No, clearly the real killer is the US health insurance system. If it didn’t exist or Maria was otherwise able to get treatment Carlos wouldn’t be here and Junpei would be fine.

Rabbi Raccoon posted:Are these choices, like the coin flip and the gunshot just now that are clearly 50/50 and split up the story points ACTUALLY 50/50 or do they happen in a set order? The diagram is pretty clear that there's a timeline where Sigma gets hit with a blank (or it's just too early and my brain hasn't unfogged yet so I missed something) and thus survives, so does he always get shot the first time? The coin flip is rigged so that you call it correctly and get the ending and credits the first time, then lose and get the opening and the rest of the game the second time. I know how this event works, but I won’t reveal that information at this time.

DKII posted:As far as I know, the gunshot is like which case has the antidote - it's randomly set each time you enter the scene. I heard of one case where it took several tries to get the other option to happen. A small group of friends I know got the other result here three or four times before finally getting this one. So that’s two cases. But yes as far as anyone knows this is actually random.

Changing Q Team’s vote won’t do us any good right now - if we want to get a different execution result we should change D Team’s vote. That said, Pod Room. My usual MO is to try to get unpleasant things out of the way, so let’s suffer Eric now in order to be freer later.

Radical-6, not Rhizome 6. Meanwhile, while Dio technically did those things of his own accord, he was acting on orders from presumably Brother, an otherwise uninvolved party. AweStriker fucked around with this message at 15:21 on Jun 13, 2020 |

Let’s not forget that this also casts Diana and Sigma in a real negative light. They’re both trying their best of course, but Diana taking a page from the Book of the Ex and getting drunk and Sigma not letting Diana tell her own story are pretty “maybe don’t do this in a relationship”.

The way Phi is treated in this game is my single biggest problem with it. I’m not sure who your 4th jerk is after Eric, Mira, and Junpei, though...

ApplesandOranges posted:In ZTD Phi technically has six Escapes she can be a part of, since she's with you for the initial three doors, and then you can pair up with her after Magenta or Yellow, and then she has another Escape further on in her own route. Magenta route doesn’t give you an option to team up with Phi per se, but she gets a Round 3 room like the one in her route.

Eeepies posted:Oh god DIana is going to realize Sigma's her husband, Phi's her daughter, and the mastermind is her son, right? You’re correct but it’s also only barely in the top 5 most awkward things someone morphogenetically remembered here. I have on opinion on what #1 is, but... for now I’ll just let it sit.

Ultimately yeah Phi not getting to do a whole lot is one of my major problems with these two games.

rko posted:There are so many baffling choices here, and while the Zero Escape series isn’t known for its thoughtful realism, VLR and 999 hang together—both of those games have some very silly plot issues, but none that stuck out so bad that it took me out of the story. There is someone I know that had their disbelief not just suspended but violently expelled when they learned about the moon twist in VLR - I don’t recall the whole story accurately but they’d been following Fedule’s LP thread, someone brought up “are we on the moon” with no reasoning or context, many of the other posters latched on to the theory, but it didn’t make sense to them at all. And when it turned out to be correct...
