That fucking rabbit killed the complete athmosphere from VLR.

It never ceases to amaze me that people like 999s true ending. It as the biggest ass pull since Indigo Prophecy.

>>192098870

It's just a matter of if they'll let him do what he wants this time around

>but we haven’t started proactively developing the game yet.

Im sad.

But it pretty much just said its going to be 999 and VLR combined, which makes sense since its inbetween the two.

>That's why in the first game you explore
Um... what?
>but in the second game there was the needle.
Oh. You mean you EXPLODE.

>The setting of the next game takes place in between the 999 timeline and Virtue’s Last Reward. I’m probably going to brush on what happens to all of the characters, like Santa and Ace.

Combine this with the fact that we're told in the Q&A that Ace escaped from prison and I think we have our Zero for the next Nonary game

I thought the rabbit was creepy as fuck in the first 10 minutes then he got annoying.

>>192102137

It was the right kind of annoying

>>192102137
>>192102314
The game got infinitely more enjoyable after he didnt appear anymore. Maybe it was intentional.

>>192102882

Well yeah, he just served as an explanation to the rules. Rather than just killing off a character right away like 999 did to hit things home

>>192102882
I liked him. Especially when he made Dio clam up.

They tried way too hard to outdo 999, and the game suffered for it

I'm mad that the game was dumbed down to try to appeal to Vita owners.

I'm sick of this audience expanding bullshit.

I dunno, you sound like you're trying too hard to not like it to be honest.

>>192110234
>no atmosphere
Oh the game had atmosphere, it just wasn't as good as 999
>flat characters
Quark, Clover and Alice weren't that great but the rest of the cast were fine
>flow chart completely killed the impact of decisions
You liked restarting? Flow chart is there to make things more convenient and they even tie it in with the story in an interesting way
>shitty predictable twists
All the twists are foreshadowed in one way or another, but I doubt you predicted everything that was going to happen ahead of time
>forced bloat with way too many pre-reqs for endings
Some were silly, but other made sense. Like figuring out who planted the bombs before actually accusing someone. Or figuring out the password for the Twin-headed Lion puzzle. It makes things suspenseful and gives you pieces of the story along the way
>rehashed soundtrack
Why's that bad? 999 soundtrack was great and really made some of the moments, and VLR still has a good amount of soundtracks that are good

>>192111054
>Quark
It's kind of hard to give character to someone who is passed out the whole damn game. Sucks though, he could have been a fun character. he has a snack hat come on you could have done something more with him

I don't know why people think of Clover as just fan service. I think she's characterized very well. She's been through a lot of shit, and she was mentored by Alice (i.e. the lady who wears a giant necklace to cover her nipples) for several years. Her personality just kinda went to shit over time.
