We all like bad games sometimes.

My favorite part about the ending to Danganronpa 2 was realizing that I was correct in thinking that every character was an insufferable piece of poo poo. The writing was just awful, and virtually every female character existed just to be dumb or submissive to the guys, show off cartoon tits, or fall in provocative positions. It was like a fanfic written by someone that didn't understand what made the first game interesting and thought the writer and fat anime guy were the only good characters.

Sonia, Koizumi & Ibuki were cool and not those things, IMO. It would be nice if the fanservice mandate for VNs could be lifted at some point though, I agree.

It still had really cool mystery cases, its not like it's just constantly throwing pantyshots at you. Like if you don't like the fanservice stuff, that's w/e, but the case-by-case stuff is generally all okay even if the ending is dumb.

At least, that's why I hope people like the DR series. I try to avoid what the general fans like, and if they eat up the fanservice, then welp.

If you go into the DR series expecting something serious and tense like Zero Escape you're going to be super disappointed. DR is for fun, silly, absurdity with a splash of some dark violence thrown in.

DR1 was stronger in overarching story while DR2 was stronger in a diverse and fun cast of characters. I'm still looking forward to DR3 for more stupid fun with an evil talking bear and horrible ultra violence. :black101:

I don't like the 3rd case at all actually, it's every other case that I think is good. And no case in any Game/VN mystery thing is ever perfect, usually having some dumb jump in logic at points, so the second case felt perfectly normal for what the game is. Nothing really stood out as being especially bad, aside from case 3's blatant bad (or, at least, disappointing, motivation).

Did you think I meant to say the overarching plot was good? Cause its not what I meant to say there. I guess I should clarify, by case-by-case l meant "each case to the actual next case" aka just the cases.

In case 2 Peko gives you information used as a clue that the island is weird and not all it seems but she actually lied about what she was doing at the time for her alibi so that means that she lied in a bizarre way that just so happened to be true. It makes absolutely no sense.

Last thing in this subject because I see this being said alot but this was just a small confusion because of the way the translation told us that information, but when Peko says about not being able to find other islands she is talking about islands outside of Jabberwock Island not the other small islands in Jabberwock

EDIT: But to keeps us on a ZE topic: I have seen people saying that each team will be in a diferent timeline but I have the crazier theory that each time the playable character loses their memories they are in diferent point in time with actors playing the other people because cat in a box bla bla bla

On the note of multiple timelines, I find myself wondering why Sigma needed to make a clone of himself(Kyle). It seemed like it was just in case Sigma bought it before the AB Project was ready, but there could be another reason as well, which would also explain why Luna was around.

Maybe one of the duplicate test missions will be closer to the time of VLR, with Kyle and Luna taking on the roles of Sigma and Diana (since Sigma would be too old to pass as his younger self). It's possible that the other participants could be GAULEMs or clones in this timeline as well. It would explain how Kyle could jump back to the test site even though he didn't exist at that time; he's actually jumping back to the duplicate test site taking place when he's around.

It would be a massive shock if people die and we find out their blood is white instead of red (because they're actually GAULEMs).

I agree that he probably made the clone as an insurance policy in case he died it had an accident so his consciousness could jump to a point after ZTD, then he could eventually go back to ZTD when he was ready.

Or I could be totally wrong - it has been years since I played these games.

That's because Sigma-X before Sigma made a clone.

But then Sigma-Z made a clone because Sigma-X made a clone

So Sigma-T made a clone because Sigma-Z made a clone.

Then...

Interesting side note: could the morphogenetic field be theoretically used to achieve immortality? Just keep jumping consciousness into clones and keep a persistent consciousness in fresh bodies.

Also, re: GAULEMs: I think that's unlikely in ZTE. It's too early in the past for the technology to exist and the blood is clearly red in the trailer.

You're assuming that everything's happening in 2028.

Seeing as the previous games had the "ship" turn out to be in the desert, and the "underground bunker" on the moon, who knows where the DCom test site actually is?

Or when.

For all we know, with how little contact the groups are said to have, the three groups could be in entirely different places (in space and time). Who's to say that one of the groups isn't in a place in the timeline where GAULEMs exist?

Hm... What if part of the reason the participants are constantly drugged into amnesia is to make it difficult to jump accurately in time? For example, Sigma intends to jump back a few hours but ends up jumping a few thousand years into the past by accident since he can't ace the landing in the morphogenetic field.

The whole game seems to be rigged against jumpers specifically, so I wouldn't be surprised if said antagonist knew how to outplay the Crash Keys at their own game.

Just how many mistakes have you suffered on the way here?

An uncountable number, to be sure.
Keep in mind that Zero has never actually been a real antagonist in any of these games. Both times it was Akane just trying to save herself and/or the world from one of the "victims" of the Nonary game (Ace/Dio). I have no reason to suspect that this isn't just another one of those schemes. Create weird conditions to push psychic powers to their limit.
