That double dip~ Will you also be getting Another Episode on JPSN? I'm excited for that game or any Danganronpa to be exact as
this game left me wanting for more.

So NISA just emailed me to say they shipped the game. My package is in Texas. I'm in Canada.

Good to see that 27 dollars I paid for expedited shipping is being put to good use.

Chapter 1 ones are the sword and magazine by the way. They're both pretty amusing.
You'll have to hunt down Souda and Koizumi at different parts of that chapter and you'll be presented with a choice to use the item instead of their dialogue progressing normally which will lead to the bonus scene.

Cool, thank you. Wanted to cut down on the backtracking by getting those items first.

For trophies, you should try to get the hidden Monokumas as best as you can for each chapter, unless you want to backtrack later on, which can be a pain in the ass.

and finally my LE has been shipped, lol

It's a good thing I've already played the game because otherwise I would probably be freaking out about how late I'm getting it.

I seriously enjoy all the UI/interface enhancements that they've made to this game. The new cursor is completely unambigious about what you're about to interact with, the GUI itself is totally gorgeous and smooth, and everything just feels so much snappier in this game. Even the camera control moves faster!

Thanks for the Hidden Monokuma guide... but I can't read Japanese. CUE DESPAIR.

I'm still trying to get through the first trial; damn, the difficulty has been ramped up.

I'm amused that NISA caught on the Dis-Bear.

I'm convinced that Akane is somehow related to Hina from the first game, to the food obsession to the similar size of....the body.

Stuck again. DIS TRIAL. (Ch. 1 trial spoilers)

Who knows how to get under the floorboards? I know Chiaki and Gundham looked, but neither actually went in. Also, Nagito is fucking crazy.

Yeah, I'm alright, just a scuffed up knee and a scraped stomach but as long as I lie down I shouldn't be too sore in the morning.

It's great so far though, even though this is my second time playing I'm having a blast with the english voices and the localization.

Still in Chapter 1, but man these characters look awesome. Really love the looks of Gundham, Nekomaru, Kazuichi, and more. Much, much better designs overall than the first game's characters.

There should be a hint before the trial that someone found something under the floorboards. I'll tell you if you really wanna know.

I love coming in here and seeing everyone represent their favorite character via their avatars :3

Found myself in a similar situation by picking up my local Gamestop's one and only copy. I had it pre-ordered on Amazon due to having some extra credit on there but decided I couldn't wait after all haha.

I'll agree with the feelings shared above about liking the character designs much more this time around.

In general, is the sequel regarded to be better by people than the original?

EDIT: Looks like my question was answered right above. Thanks blizz!

Can someone explain the Rebuttal showdown to me like i'm a child? I literately just spent 20 minutes failing over and over again, having no clue how to do it. I accidentaly stumbled my way through the first part by mashing buttons, but then couldn't progress.

It's interesting how in the first game they translated ultimate otaku to ultimate fan fic writer, but this time they don't translate words like tanuki to raccoon dog.

You need to "slash" your opponent's words using the directional buttons (so if the words are appearing across the screen horizontally, slice vertically).

Might take a few tries, but once you get far enough (i.e. you can't advance anymore), you'll know when you'll need to use the truth bullet to "slice" the highlighted word(s) like you would shoot them down normally.

Once you've done enough of them you'll get an idea of how many times you need to advance before slicing down a statement. The "fail" text once you get this far also helps tell you which statement to slice.

Man, am I wrong in thinking that the Class Trials are even bigger than before? I don't remember them being this huge, except for
the last one in DR1.

Aside from the tips here, you can also slash diagonally if the statement is positioned awkwardly. I found it easier to use the directional buttons instead of the touch screen if that helps. Also, avoid slashing orange arguments as it greatly reduces your "momentum" for that round.

Got done with the prologue and Im already super excited but I have to put it down since I reached a stopping point or I'll keep going all night. I am fully prepared for all the despair that awaits me. (Im probably not in the slightest)

So, finished Chapter 1... What have we learned? (Spoilers ahead.)

- Monokuma is just as much of a dick as he was in the first game.
- Monomi is useless.
- Executions are still fabulously over the top.
- Nagito is fucking crazy.
- And they are possibly being watched.

Have I missed anything?

The game is taunting me in my Vita. I decided to start Layton vs. Wright and I don't think I can play both at once. I need to finish that ASAP so I can start this beast.

Heh, I'm actually in a similar predicament myself. What I'm basically going to try and do is alternate chapters between the two games.

My LE just shipped today from NIS. I couldn't wait for it so I just decided to double dip and buy a second copy from Gamestop. Yay.
