A shitty post? This calls for a dance of deduction.
Would you rather have 3D, two screens, and interact with a stylus or have high resolution 2D, a single screen, and interact with your fingers?

Nah as in I have to figure out how to unlock them. This game has a weird structure.

The structure is bizarre and also pays off narratively in probably the most insane developments in a video game I've seen. Nobody writes game stories like the VLR guy

They swing wildly from comic to dramatic in a really well done way. Closest analogue is probably Metal Gear's tone but a VN

3 endings down (Clover, K, Tenmyouji). This game is creepy and the things that happen in it stick with me through the night.

I did because VLR was a PS plus game at one point and I didn't know it was a sequel. I definitely missed some stuff , and some characters are in both, and the overarching narrative definitely seemed insane to me because those bits were building on stuff from 1. But 90% of the game is self contained so you'd be alright

I think actually the worst part about playing VLR first was trying to get all the endings in 999 later when you have to just tap through alllllllllll the text whenever you wanna try a different path instead of the really sick system VLR has

I did and sort of regretted it. U can play 999 on an iPhone though with all the puzzles removed and burn through it real quick
