Mordiceius posted:Speaking of VLR, having just played it two weeks ago, I would have been loving PISSED had I played it at launch and then learned there would be no third game. Eh, the news about the the third game being canceled was several months after release. I know this because I got it free on PS+ and the news came just a day or two after I beat VLR.

voltcatfish posted:2. A picture of the flowchart exists now It appears the first choice on the flowchart is which character you're playing as, since there's three branches from the beginning and each seems to be portraying one of the groups. Maybe your character wakes up with no idea who they are, and has to look into a mirror to jog their memory. You then decide whether you see a male(Carlos), female(Diana), or masked(Q) face. This then determines which group you're locked in with. What I'm most curious about is the structure of the flowchart afterwards. There appears to be four branches after the "prologue", so the branching point might not be determined by which group you're in. Unless there's one branch for each protagonist, plus a fourth which is unlocked after the rest for the "true" ending. It'd be interesting if decisions you make in one group affect what happens to another group, though I'm not sure how the flowchart would handle this.

I am very, very interested in Mira/Eric/Q because their path seems to end relatively quickly. I'm sure there's more to it but we already know Eric's going to lose his poo poo and Mira seems to be a questionable person herself. That group's gonna be great, doing them first personally. e: I've also been trying to place English Eric since I knew I've heard his voice before, and apparently he's Zen from Persona Q which is definitely where I remember it from.

I'd imagine he loses his poo poo if anything happens to her, and her being alive means that she does some psychopathic stuff (given her attitude in the trailer) that results in people dying. Kind of a lose/lose sort of situation it seems like. e: personally I'm going to go team Carlos and see what happens if Junpei and Akane die.

voltcatfish posted:I am very, very interested in Mira/Eric/Q because their path seems to end relatively quickly. It looks to me like the character paths merge early on, then fork again into four main branching paths. So the path you're looking at doesn't necessarily correspond to that group.

I keep trying to think of all the ways this game could resolve itself. What I always remind myself is that Uchikoshi is an overwhelming optimist. With that in mind, I think the only logical way for everything to resolve amicably is something another goon had speculated before: going back in time to save Left. Perhaps Mars Mission Zero is actually Brother. Finding a way to go back in time is the only way for everyone to get a happy ending. And Uchikoshi strikes me as a man that would want evil antagonists to have happy endings too.

voltcatfish posted:See that would not only undo VLR but also 999 Exactly. It completely erases everything because the death of Left was the catalyst for Brother to start Free the Soul. No Left dying -> No Ace running experiments on kids in the first Nonary game -> no Akane in the incinerator -> no need for second Nonary game -> no fuckery at Mars test site -> no Rad-6 -> no NONNNNNARRRRY GAAAAAAAAME AMBIDEX EDITTIOOOOOOOOOOON Basically, all the events of the Zero Escape series have been trying to cure the symptoms of the problem, not the original cause.

But that would also mean no Luna or Quark. And they were, like, the only characters in VLR who weren't jerks. I mean Phi was a likable jerk, but still.

I do have to wonder how saving Left would be possible, if none of the characters involved in mars project were alive or around when he died. Maybe they'll pull a Ghost Trick and have Gab be the person you play as for the final chapter.

Blinus posted:Eric is Keith Silverstein, who I believe is Zen, yes. He was also Mondo in Danganronpa 1, which is how I recognized him. Yeah his voice for Mondo is exactly the same as his for Eric. He did a pretty good job, so I'm looking forward to his performance here. Your Dunkle Sans posted:If Uchikoshi really and truly plans to end ZE after ZTD, then this is probably likely. Speaking of which, the whole Dashiell Gordain Nonary Games are imo some of the most fascinating bits of backstory in the Zero Escape series, simply due to how hosed up their premise is. That whole plot point was mainly to set up a red herring for 999 (All-Ice), but then the robes the victims garbed in for incineration were the same Free the Soul robes worn by Snake, so I'm feeling and hoping that Gordain will be a bit more important to the plot of ZTD. Fake edit: Wait a second, it's stated that Dio is a fourth generation (and latest-generation) Left clone, and that's by 2074. I don't know how long a generation is with clones, but that's still one hell of a time discrepancy between now and the Gordain days. Could Brother have resurrected some long-dead organization? If so, why? This series man.

I'm guessing this is part of a decision game where each team votes for another team, and if one team gets two votes, they die. But if each team votes for a different team, nobody dies. You can see that Carlos is apparently trying to set things up so the latter result happens. But can we trust everyone to stick to the plan? If one team gets killed, then the surviving teams get their passwords, and can get through the X Door faster. It's kind of like the Ambidex Game with higher stakes. It's becoming even harder to trust Akane when she says that she has no idea what happened at the test site. It's like the scenarios in VLR were practice runs for what happens here.

I wouldn't be surprised if it wiped out an entire team, though. If only one participant on a team got killed, would it be the same one each time, or would that be another random branching point? I'm suspecting that this scenario could be the first decision game, since the flowchart has four branching paths, and there's four possible outcomes to this theoretical scenario(Team C eliminated, Team Q eliminated, Team D eliminated, or nobody eliminated).

Also why post test site Sigma didn't write a letter to his VLR self that said "dear Sigma shoot any plague doctors on sight also you're welcome for the poster in the crew quarters" Honestly the anti esper juice is astonishingly competent all things considered

That would still make sense if instead of killing off the whole group they only kill one person. The main reason why I think they won't kill entire teams all at once is because that would make the game (as in, the in-story game, not necessarily the actual game) really short since there are only three teams. I think it makes more sense from a storytelling perspective to kill off characters one by one. But we'll see.
