gently caress Sou.

Also JESUS CHRIST this just gets worse and worse seeing that Kanna isn't the sacrifice. Sou was having her pretend to be the sage so she'd have a better chance of dying and going to see her sister, and this saving his own rear end.

I vote for Sou because Kai reminds me of Wen Ning from MDZS and I like that ghost general guy.

I know that Sou is the correct option, but man am I tempted to say "comedy self-vote option, gently caress you everyone dies".

Kai tripping ALL the death flags with that "I'll tell all" promise though.

Sou, because even though Kai is the safest choice, gently caress Sou.

Sou, even though he probably won't get picked he still deserves to get #2 at least.

Vote Kai because if he lives and starts giving out "information" he might actually gently caress this group harder than Sou is already loving it.

I admit I will take more satisfaction in Sou's death, though, which is just as well given how this thread is going.

I want you to vote for Sou, but I wonder what happens if you vote Sara.

The cynical part of me says that Sara's vote doesn't matter. The game didn't let us decide the majority in the Second Game or Preliminary Vote, so she'll feel less guilty if we leave the decision to everyone else.

What happens in the case of a tie, anyway?

I think this is my favourite Danganronpa game. Holy poo poo, this is... really good.

Vote Kai, I think Joe is the Sacrifice. He's lying about his role to escape with Sara.

  • Whether it was because Sara couldn't allow eight people to be killed to save two lives, or because anger overrode love, her decision has been made.




  • Or maybe it was just cold logic; the moment Kai was confirmed as the Sage, the Sacrifice's fate was sealed; why waste a vote?






“...I understand. So long as you may be the Sacrifice, choosing you is risky...”

“It's more than that.”






“Eheehee. Now everyone, enjoy yourselves as I check your answers!”

“First, the Sage!”



“...”

“Next, the Keymaster! Eheehee, the fierce battle between you two was a true sight to see!”



“No... Stop it...”







“Well... what to say...”





“D... Dumbass! What're you sorry about?!”

“You... 'cause of us, you... you...!! Don't you feel bitter?!”

“I dunno... I just dunno...”




“...!”

“................”

“................”

“Sara...”

(This isn't real... It's just...)



“Joe... Stop it...! I don't believe it... I...”




“I...”



  • If we had voted for Joe, his last three lines here change. Joe realises that Sara voted for him, and instead of saying the others are his friends and asking everyone to work together, Joe admits that he "tried really hard" to escape with Sara. No one mentions Sara essentially trying to throw everyone to the wolves to save Joe and herself.

“Aaah... sniff...”

“Last... There's something I wanna say.”





Music stops.




“Wait...! Wait, Miley...”
















“How cuuute, Sara! Ahaha.”

“Why not? I'll give you a chance.”

“Eh...?”

Music stops.



“Just keep pressing it! The device will be slowed the more you press, and maybe even stop!”

“G... Give me that!!”









  • Joe's life bar can be seen on the lower screen. Since he is already injured, the bar starts out at around 75% full, and constantly decreases.



  • Every time Sara presses the button, Joe recovers a small amount of life.



  • No matter how many times or how quickly the button is pressed though, the device continues on.



  • Until eventually...
















“It's enough.”

“Waaaaaaaaa.... aaahhh...!!”

“Eheehee, how cute you are even when you cry.”

Unfortunately, all the information was just too public. So the neutral people went with the most surefire way to save themselves, and Joe was doomed for being outed.

God. I wanted to yell when Sara started clicking the button, because it was obvious what was going on, but of course Sara wouldn't think straight while she's panicking and watching her best friend die.

Out of curiosity, does anything different happen if you announce out loud that Joe is the Sage back when Sara mistakenly concludes that he is? I'm assuming not (I imagine Sou would still come up with the whole distraction where he asks what the Keymaster card looks like etc.), but it would be amusing if you could make the "dumb" decision and end the game right there.

...Not that it would be a good ending. Sara and Joe are the kind of people who would feel wretched for the rest of their lives if they actually did manage to surf to freedom on the blood of everyone else in the room.

I do hope we get to find out who decided to vote Sou for being a dick instead of voting Kai for a certain survival.

Joe was one of my favorite characters, and the game definitely succeeded in making his death painful. And then to take advantage of Sara's desperate state to torture them both...

Miley deserves a lot more than a frying pan to the head for that one.

Kai may be a creep and god only knows what other involvement he had with the kidnappers, but the further we get into this nightmarish poo poo the more I will always respect him for smacking Miley with the frying pan.

Since we'll probably never know from the man himself, I wonder if Kai wasn't just insane and Ryoko had something to do with this

By the way, chapter 3 is nearly complete, from what I understand! A demo of it was released, and it's coming out on the 25th from what I understand??

Of course, that version will not be english but with any luck, it'll be translated by the time the thread is ready for part 3 / soon after! I'm pumped!!

When I played through, I figured Joe was gonna die at some point because during the investigation prior to the Main Game, he was collecting a whole bunch of death flags. I still was not quite prepared for how it went down.

I like how they've written the characters so far. I'm amazed how much I feel like I can trust Keiji despite having this shady quality about him, for instance.

Not sure I can wait tho! A free game that I can hop right in with my browser? This moment? Yeah I might just go ahead!

There's a bit during this mafia portion that's impossible to complete on the in-browser version, unless it's been fixed since the day this thread started, jsyk. I binge played up until that point and found I couldn't select a needed option.

It is occasionally buggy, and if it loses your save there's nothing you can do about it. Probably better off downloading it if you can.
