Alice manages to be a petulant bitch even after nearly killing somebody. She is the worst goddamn piece of poo poo character. She's not even a gently caress jerk like Dio.

Endorph posted:Lots of people mad that a character in a video game was mean to them. She has no qualities that make me like her, I like Dio, a lot actually. I think Alice is boring, poorly written trash just put in to fufill the requirment that every Visual Novel has a "cute girl". Lotus in the first game was miles better than that trash. She's designed really dumb too, her outfit isn't just impractical, I'm not even sure what's going on. gently caress that horrible piece of poo poo character. E: Also, people recognize Dio as a dick, Alice gets nothing from the rest of the cast.

Prop Wash posted:I think many of the people you just named didn't have any issues voting to kill other members of the group who are far smarter and more dangerous than ol' always-ally Sigma. Alice pointed that out and she was right, even if she was using it to deflect blame. What she did makes perfect sense and apparently some goons are mad that a character in their anime puzzle dating sim is more intelligent than they are. No yeah somebody who's completely unapologetic about nearly killing a person is a totally logical way to write a character that we're supposed to like

I never thought they'd top the song at the end of 999, but I'll be damned if they didn't.

What fabric is it made of, where on earth would you buy this and why?????. I don't even think it looks good, like, at all. E:Phi is the 3rd angel, she's even got superpowers!

HMS Boromir posted:So what morphogenetic weewoo accounts for this? Sigma happened to subconsciously suggest to Alice that she change her vote to his advantage (in this path and this path only)? Yeah, I mean, the game has some glaring issues, but wait until everything plays out to start drawing lines in the sand. E: When the gently caress did Dio pick Ally, I don't remember that at all.

Seriously, save your big posts about your feelings about the game overall for the end of the game. VLR hasn't even begun opening up it's bag of tricks yet.

DarkHamsterlord posted:All this talk about the rules of storytelling reminds me of this file from earlier on Hell, how many of these have been broken by this game already HMS Boromir posted:I understand the argument that it's early to pass judgment because it might end up making sense in the fullness of time, but it leaves a bad enough taste in my mouth that I don't think I'm willing to keep reading with a little voice in the back of my mind constantly reminding me that they haven't dug themselves out of this hole yet. I think I'm out. Well, godspeed then, I love VLR but it's most definitely not for everyone.

I can't really put my finger on why, but I really liked 999 more. Something about it felt more personal and intimate. Maybe because it just felt a lot more like a horror game?

NeoNaoNeo posted:You should try not to keep feeling so indignant and personally slighted when people don't react to something you like how you want them to. I don't really care, I just think it's odd that before we've even seen this plot twist to it's conclusion, and really, before it's begun, people are getting ready to be upset about it. If you express that much effort into disliking something, maybe you should reevaluate how you're spending your time. E: I'm glad stuff fell out like this, I think this bit is better when you ally, and then immediately betray.

Funny story: I was a counseller at a summer camp with my friend, and when we were in charge of the big camp games, we ran something that was effectively a cheap version of the prisoners dillema for candy. It was... pretty interesting.
