Diary posting Umineko is essential to the experience. Good to see there's a thread to encourage that.

Rockman Reserve posted:asking this one more time because I have increasingly convinced myself that A) this is actually the case and B) Battler actually straight-up mentions it and I forgot? The game just outright goes through the whole puzzle and solution eventually so just keep reading. It's also nearly impossible to solve by yourself (nearly imposible because someone did manage to do it in a forum when Umineko was being published but it was dismissed as being ridiculous by any right thinking person).

Rockman Reserve posted:I know, I know, but as long as I'm re-reading up to 7 anyway and the characters keep discussing it I'm going to poke at it like an old scab anyway. I just wanted to know if I'm on the right track interpreting that part at all. No, there's no keypad that relates to the sacrifice numbers in the epitaph.

Rockman Reserve posted:E: Beatrice is a carbon monoxide detector and it was Battler's job to remember to change the battery, but he forgot after six years, and everyone died. Honestly, this is one of your better guesses.

Rockman Reserve posted:I have some thoughts (and lingering questions) and am wondering if I should just power through to the end first. This is the optimal way just read and comment as you go along. Read a guide if you want to solve the puzzle elements you'll know when they happen fez_machine fucked around with this message at 22:46 on Dec 19, 2022 |

WarpDogs posted:preparing for my first read of Umineko by doing the most logical thing, which is of course first reading And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie If you want further reading to fully appreciate the murder mystery aspects of Umineko. I highly recommend reading up on the New Orthodox movement in Japanese mystery writing and its break from the Social School (Shakai-ha) This article offers a good précis: https://crimereads.com/the-honkaku-and-shin-honkaku-mysteries-of-seishi-yokomizo/ Of the formative works of the New Orthodox movement, The Decagon House Murders and The Tokyo Zodiac Mysteries are the ones to read in terms of Umineko. fez_machine fucked around with this message at 01:45 on Sep 9, 2023 |

WarpDogs posted:It really is very similar to the feeling of playing mystery game or VN. the Decagon House itself has a very Zero Escape feel to it lol Yeah, the line of influence from Decagon House is pretty much a straight line to the original ADV games and then to every other mystery VN https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wOtv-J7tOI
