Well, the game's finally out in NA and will be out in Europe on Friday. Since some people might not be that far ahead in the game, it would be best to use spoilers if you want to discuss about the game's plot-points.

But yeah, I just finished the prologue right now and so far its pretty impressive. Presentation wise, this game looks amazing. Having sprites for the protagonist when they're talking, and the use of "panel-like" visuals to have multiple character sprites on screen, are all really good implementations. The use of zooming in and out during character interactions makes everything feel more dynamic. Visually, the game looks a lot better than the previous entries. Environments feel more vibrant and detailed. The character sprites have better shading on them too. The "object-slapping" mechanic seems pretty pointless, lol. And the controls for moving around are still kinda iffy. The school environment seems like a mixed bag so far. It's better than DR1 for sure, but DR2's more open environments added a lot of variety. Hopefully DRV3 also adds more variety to the map.

Surprisingly, the characters are a lot more entertaining than I originally thought they would be. Kaede's actually pretty funny, lol. She feels like a mix between Naegi's kindheartedness and Hinata's narcissistic personality. Saihara seems to act like the "Komaeda" of DRV3 (follows the MC around and shares his insight). His voice seems a little off (I'm playing with Japanese audio), but hopefully I get used to it. I mean, I used to hate Hinata's voice, but now I'm okay with it. But the character that seems the most similar to Komaeda is Rantaro (personality wise). But I don't think Rantaro's as much of a psychopath as Komaeda (nor is he as gay, lol). Robo Naegi Keebo's pretty interesting too. Since I avoided a lot of DRV3 stuff prior to the game coming out, I wasn't aware of what personality type each character would have. By judging the key visuals for the game, I thought that Keebo would be a cold-hearted robot who lacked human emotions. Turns out that he's the complete opposite. Talking about opposites, Gonta's personality was a 180 from his design. Out of all the characters, I hate Iruma the most. Seems like she's the new Saionji of the game, lol. Hopefully she dies in the first three chapters

Monokuma's VA change is pretty apparent, but hopefully I get used to it. Since Monokuma was barely there in the DR3 anime, hearing his voice in DRV3 is making me realize how different the voice is. Also, the Monokubs/Monokumarz are pretty annoying so far. The most interesting thing about them is that Yamadera Kouichi voice acts all of them XD

And as for the story

The significant other and I shall be playing it today as soon as he gets home from class! :D

That being said, however, we played through the demo and thought it was pretty good...so, we're really super HYPED to be playing through the actual game over the next week or so.

Anyway, my favorite DRV3 characters so far are as follows...

+ Miu Iruma (Ultimate Inventor)
+ Tsumugi Shirogane (Ultimate Cosplayer)
+ Himiko Yumeno (Ultimate Magician)

Same, I'm getting it today too for my Vita.
Will probably end up playing it after I finally finish Tales of the Abyss ( & give you my thoughts on it) xP

My backlog of unfinished games is growing yay

Nope, it's just NISA adding their own jokes, unfortunately. They've even added a Patriots/Jets joke in the game too. I hate it when a localization adds stuff that weren't in the original version. I rather play the game how Spike Chunsoft envisioned it.

Honestly, there's grammar issues in the localization are pretty bad. The game's first cinematic literally said "The Killing Game with start again" and "consent" was spelt as "concent". I believe they've been patched though. Hopefully those were the only issues with the localization...

That being said, there's a lot of anime/manga references in the game that were also in the original version (like JoJo, SnK, Death Note, Slam Dunk, Doraemon, etc).

Oh wow, another half assed localization. Why am I not surprised?

I'll still buy it and probably love the story and the characters and all that jazz but still, I wish NIS would leave Dangan Ronpa alone. I mean, Project Zetsubou's translation of the first entry in the series was MUCH better than NIS' localizations and it wasn't even an official one, it was a fan translation.

I'm sure they would've called "Monokuma" as "Monobear" for the first game's localization, if it weren't for Spike Chunsoft insisting to keep it as Monokuma.

Probably, especially considering that there were some ambiguous phrases in the previous localizations that almost made it seem like the characters were American instead of Japanese (such as claiming that the characters' mother tongue is English instead of Japanese)

He's voiced by Megumi Hayashibara, AKA a woman, maybe that's why you think it sounds a bit weird.

Judging from what I've heard of the Japanese version so far I think everybody sounds great (as usual, the Dangan Ronpa games always have great seiyuu casts), Saihara included (even if you can kind of hear his voice actor is a woman). I doubt Hayashibara will ever be able to top Ogata's performance in SDR2 though, at least her voice doesn't make my ovaries tingle the way Ogata's does.

I can't decide between getting it for PS4 or Vita. I have the previous 2 on Vita and I love my Vita, but it looks really sexy on PS4.

So knowing me, i'll be debating this question for the next 4 months and then will buy it, and it will sit on my shelf and not get played for another 4 months...

Yeah, this sounds about right.

I bought it on the PS4, but I'm using remote play to play it on the Vita when I feel like it. Due note that the Japanese audio isn't available on the Vita yet. The PS4 version has the Japanese audio included with the base game, while the Vita version's supposed to get the Japanese audio separately as a free DLC. But the DLC isn't out yet.

I just found out that the Japanese audio is now available on the Vita. There's a free DLC titled as "HQ Audio Pack" which improves the audio quality of the game, and adds the Japanese voiceover. Without the DLC, the audio quality on the Vita is really bad. They had to heavily compress the audio to not make the file size of the game be huge.

Danganronpa V3 is apparently not connected to any of the previous games or anime. The Danganronpa 3 anime already concluded the story of that timeline (the same timeline includes all the other Danganronpa games too). Danganronpa V3 is the start of a new timeline.

Apparently there's also a DLC option for those who want to play the game with French subtitles.

https://store.playstation.com/#!/en-us/games/addons/danganronpa-v3-french-text-language-pack/cid=UP1063-PCSE01100_00-DANGANV3VITADL00

It's a cool choice, but I'm not gonna bother downloading it since a) it's a waste of space as I already know English anyway and b) I suspect it's just going to be a translation of the English translation instead of the original text. Besides, I'm so used to playing video games in English that I think it'd feel weird to switch at this point.

Now, hold on.

The translation is pretty good. Just because the wording and jokes got changed a little, that doesn't make it bad.

You kinda have to change the wording in games like this, since, you know, a lot of them wouldn't make sense in English.

The only really strange choice is how one character went from "Ultimate Folklorist" to "Ultimate Anthropologist", but apparently, anthropology was a huge part of his skill set, anyways.

It's not like their censoring anything. They left the "motivation" scene in UDG untouched. (Turns out the bit about the little girl "actually being 18" was in the Japanese version, too. Sorry I mislead you guys!)

"Just because the wording and jokes got changed a little"? In what world does "translating" this sentence:
as:
equal "just change the wording and the jokes a little"? Changing puns that only work in Japanese is one thing, flat out replacing jokes that didn't need to be replaced is completely different to what you just described.

It's also "Super High School Level", not Ultimate.

Yes they are, they replaced a joke that didn't need to be replaced. I asked for a translation, not a borderline 4kids localization

I just got it on Steam. The PC port is kinda bad. In the new panic talk action, the controls are actually mixed up. There are many other issues, but I still like the game anyways. I've tried the super hard platforming minigame like 30 times already.

So I'm midway into chapter 2 (the victim was shown) and I got a lot to say about this game, both spoilers and non-spoilers.

The game is really stylish for sure. The user interface, the layout of the word during the trials, everything screams style. It's not Persona 5 level stylish, but it comes close. And the cartoony and zany style of the previous games is present and amped-up to 11. The victim's reveal in the second chapter is a good example without spoiling much. Also, the first case was pretty complex and thoroughly enjoyable. Easily the best first case from a Danganronpa game. The trials are longer than the previous game too (intermissions between each cases make a return too). If each trial takes an average of 2-2.5 hours in Danganronpa 2, it will take 2.5-3 hours in Danganronpa V3. Also, those Scrum Debates are fun as hell! That music was gold. Hell, all the OST in this game is gold! Beautiful Lie and the new Closing Argument theme is top-notch. And it's not just about how good the music is, but also how well the music is placed. Literally, the right track plays at the right time, and it makes things more tense and thrilling.



I'll probably post my views on chapter 2 after I finish it.

I really wished I made a save before attempting that escape mini-game. I wasn't expecting it to have limited tries, lol. And the worst part is that I actually made it to the last gate, but you need a couple of people if you want to open that gate since the gate is in a position where you're bound to get hit (so you basically use each character to slightly open the gate more and more).

Well I just finished it and... hoooly shit that ending lmao, I'm not sure I've ever seen anything like that in fiction before. Utterly absurd but I loved it for it xd

I think up until that point it's more or less the same level as DR2 but... yeah the last trial takes it to a new level in more ways than one

Funny how I ended up giving a higher score to DR3 than either of Dies Irae or SubaHibi for this year but oh well, can't argue with results

I will say this though

So, I finished the second chapter (which was great) and the third chapter (which was average). Is it just me, or does the third chapter in every Danganronpa game tend to be the weakest chapter? Anyways, I'm still really liking the game lot, particularly its characters and style. Spike Chunsoft really hit the nail with the characters. Almost all of them are really, really good and interesting. I'm not gonna judge all of the characters until the end since one of them could be a mastermind, lol. But I do want to talk about a certain character...


There's a lot of other great characters too, with Momota, Ouma and Keebo being my favorites, alongside with Saihara. Momota's a true bro, Ouma makes me laugh my ass off whenever he makes fun of Keebo and Iruma, and Keebo's is a joke and I love him for that. Seriously, Keebo's a waste of a robot that thinks too highly of himself. Every time he says "Dou desu ka" with that stupid sprite, I fucking die.

I'm sure Keebo hates captchas since that "I'm not a robot" must trigger him. The entire internet might seem robophobic to him, lol.

Huh, I thought 2 was the weakest one by far. I figured out the culprit and the vast majority of how the crime was committed before the class trial had even started, which is not something I would normally be able to do in Danganronpa so it was a bit too easy and predictable for me. But yeah 2 and 3 are the relatively unimpressive trials

The second half of the game is actually brilliant though. The 4th trial is probably the most heartbreaking one in any Danganronpa game and I just felt terrible over how that concludes. Then the 5th one starts to really push the limits of what is even theoretically possible to figure out on your own due to how absurd the solution is, but it was awesome (reminded me of the
from DR2). And the last one is just... something you have to see yourself to believe. I'm genuinely curious how many people will be able to figure out all of that solution ahead of time

Maybe I must've not been pay attention properly during the second trial. I almost completely forgot about the
But once I remembered that clue, it got pretty straightforward from there. I guess the reason why I liked that chapter was probably because I liked the characters that were involved, especially the victim.

I've seen who the victim is in the fourth chapter and the class trial is about to start. This already looks like a really interesting case due to...


But oh boy, the fifth case sounds like hype. Considering how my favorite chapter in a Danganronpa game tends to be the fifth one, I'm really excited to see how it goes.

I didn't think of that either but it was still pretty obvious


But in any case yeah the last two trials are what really stood out in this game for their own reasons. The 5th one is a bit like the 5th one in DR2 in terms of complexity, and the last one is something Danganronpa has never even remotely done before -.^

I am just into Trial 4 but I have got to say that this game has TONS of callbacks and repeated tropes from its predecessors. I don't know if it's intentional or not but it is kinda ruining some moments for me.

Safe to say, Chapter 1's twist was the stand-out so far. But I really, really love the cast this time round. Chapter 4 is turning out to be real hard because of how difficult it is to pinpoint my suspicion on anyone; except for one red herring.

Getting all hyped up for the shitstorm of finale as stated by many guys on the net. I have seen only one tiny spoiler image but I wish my expectations still gets defied.

Lol I've played through the entire game and the ending sucks... =T
The first trial was a very interesting twist.
The second trial was alright.
The third trial was quite interesting.
The fourth trial was also somewhat interesting.
The fith trial was insane.
The final trial was actually so bad.

To buy or not to buy the PS4 version instead of waiting for the Vita one?

That is the question

Chapter 5 exposes the biggest twist in DR1 so only play this after playing its predecessors.

Hmm, I have heard plenty of contrasting reviews for it. Can't wait to play it.

It's something you'll probably either love or hate simply because of how absurd it is

I thought it was brilliant but I can understand why you'd say the opposite too. You'll see why soon enough

So, I finished Chapter 4 and 5, and they were definitely top-tier Danganronpa chapters.





If it weren't for my midterms, I would've been binge-playing his. I don't think I'll be able to start the last chapter until Tuesday ;_;
But anyways, I'll try to get the platinum trophy within two weeks.

In the end I said FUCK IT and decided to just watch a playthrough while waiting for the game to come out in my town.

HOW THE FLYING FIDGETY FUCK

What joke?

What are you talking about?
The shounen magazine VS Donald Trump joke we were talking about just an hour ago?


Okay.

I thought we started talking about a different joke for a moment.

As for the victim, I think Kodaka is trying to subvert the expectations people have for the surviving cast members.

Comments on the ending:


Oh and BTW, DON'T PLAY THIS GAME BEFORE FINISHING AT LEAST DR1 AND SRD2. Still fuck the anime.

This game is going to have a such a polarizing repsonse to its final chapter, but I am fully on the side of adoring it. I also want to say without a doubt V3 has my favorite protagonist in the franchise. I liked them alot before but chapter 6 they did stuff naegi and hinata never would have.

I also stand the rival character Kokichi oma blows nagito and togami out of the water both in characterization and entertainment. Really I think the main cast of V3 is the best in the entire franchise even if I find the overall cast weaker. They are all just so much more fleshed out and relatable especially shuuichi.

So, I finished the second chapter (which was great) and the third chapter (which was average). Is it just me, or does the third chapter in every Danganronpa game tend to be the weakest chapter? Anyways, I'm still really liking the game lot, particularly its characters and style. Spike Chunsoft really hit the nail with the characters. Almost all of them are really, really good and interesting. I'm not gonna judge all of the characters until the end since one of them could be a mastermind, lol. But I do want to talk about a certain character...

This might actually be the worst danganronpa to start with, without going too much into it you will be completely and utterly dumbfounded by the game chapter 5 and up. Its not even like small callbacks or anything, not only does it spoil almost every twist in the first 2 games it completly relies on your knowledge of it too.

Kodaka is all I have to say.

He's cute and one of my favorites so far. Blowing the maddest madman Nagito Komaeda out of the water though? I find that hard to believe.

I know its hard to believe but he really does. You'll come to understand but theres just so much more depth to him that wasnt present in the past rivals and he creates a dynamic simply unique to his personality. It also helps that hes just funny as shit and genuinely unpredictable cause hes not brought down by being tied to some hope gimmick.

Also even though i imagine you are, trust me, a rando on the internet, give Shuuichi his chance, theres a very good reason hes such a popular character despite being placed in such a stacked against him situation of people potentially hating his role. He is without a doubt my favorite protagonist
