Not clicking the spoilers since I don't know the specifics, but I've had an idea of some places this game goes that apparently aren't handled particularly well for a good while now thanks to people playing the Japanese version, so I'm thankful that there's a warning in the OP now. That being said- since it's spoilered I'm not sure it will necessarily help most people, but not wanting to spoil people makes that complicated, hmm. Maybe an additional less specific warning would help?

Amazon also sells from 40, which, to my knowledge, sells in MSRP.
Same thing happened to me against the boss of chapter 5. It looks like the 3x lust attack thing doesn't play well with bosses.
I've ordered from NISA a half dozen times...
"Your item was undeliverable as addressed at 11:24 am on September 3, 2015. It is being returned if appropriate information is available."
Are you fucking kidding me?
And nobody is picking up on the Support Line right now, despite the fact they should be there another hour.

So is the MSRP in the OP wrong? I need to know if I'm being ripped off or not.
Edit: Amazon is £29. The hell NISA?

No idea,maybe it's Amazon and PSN charging extra.
First unboxing video I've found of the limited edition. Man, it's all really polished, NISA went a long way since that shoddy limited edition for the first game. They don't show the Warriors of Hope & Kurokuma Set Box, though. I wonder what happened.

I finally got my LE today.
I've started up the game, and played for a little bit. I'm enjoying it, although the game play is nothing special (but I don't like these sorts of games).
The story is interesting. It definitely has that Danganronpa feel, but it's different from the previous two in the general tone and atmosphere. I'm enjoying Toko a lot more in this than I did in the original game (although she grew on me by the end). The writing for both Komaru and Toko is pretty enjoyable, and they make for a pretty odd twosome.

Are trophies not syncing with the PSN servers? I keep getting error NP-10234-0.
I grabbed the MSRP off Amazon UK and rounded up, I wasn't sure how much it'd be on PSN. DR2 was also 29.99 IIRC

Yeah...just finished Chapter 3.
Up until that point I thought the game handled its subject matter okay... but that "motivation" game definitely went a bit too far for me.

Whenever a game uses "middleware," I expect mediocrity. Just see how poor TLOU looks.
Finally got my copy today 
Does anyone knows how long this game is? I remember the first game being about 25 hours, and the 2nd one being about 30 hours. Is Ultra Despair Girls around that range or shorter?

And finished. The first couple of chapters are slow, but the game really picks up in chapter 3.
Good stuff: The interactions between Komaru and Toko are great. The majority of the game is them talking to each other and I never got bored of their interactions. The gameplay wasn't great or anything but it was a lot better than I was expecting it to be.
Bad stuff: The first couple of chapters are kinda slow and Monaca is kind of a boring villain at the start. The children are just kind of boring villains in general. Still having to spend coins to unlock stuff in the extras menu after clearing the game is a pain in the butt.

Every moment with Nagito in it was superb. Komaru considering both Toko her friend was great, Komaru considering Jack her friend was great, literally everything about the power of friendship in this game was super great. Akira Ishida called me "garbage right until the end" when I got a D in chapter 5 and that was great too.

Me too. I asked earlier and someone replied that the Sony servers haven't been updated with trophy info.
I saw a thing that said to restore system and I lost all the trophies previously unlocked, although they are in my notifications.
Nothing negative, just gives you short extra scenes. Has no effect on gameplay or story development.
After each one she says she'll send out a team to try and rescue the person. I got a trophy for it so I assume it's the right thing to do.

How many are there?
I haven;t found them all (I got the trophy after just one or two), but If I had to guess it's either 14 or 15. The reason I say that number should be obvious if you look at the names and read the descriptions of the ones you've found.

If it is
because they are related to the first games cast (which is what I originally thought) I don't think it's the case because
I found one that doesn't seem to be related to them.
If it's something completely different then I don't know.
That's what I'm getting at. At first I thought I was wrong because I found someone that wasn't blood related but then noticed she was the manager of a baseball team.

Oooooooooh.... Missed that tidbit.
read that she was a manager of a team but missed that it was a baseball team.
Hmmmmmm....
Also, I kinda laughed when [chapter 2 spoilers]
Komaru found the picture of Chihiro and his dad and she said, "I hope she's OK."
So now that I've cleared the game: Are there any guides out there for all of the notes/book/hunting card locations? I'm missing some, and I really don't want to miss out on the conversations about the
, or any of Toko's "this book is SHIT" rants.
Once you clear the game you just get a percentage completion of how many items of each type you've collected throughout the whole game, it doesn't tell you which chapters are missing items...so I'd really like to have that.

I'm super impresses by this game, it looks, runs, and plays pretty well for a Vita game.

There are a few times I notice slow downs during cut scenes. Makes movement look like old 80s 3d.
If there's one thing I think would have improved the game's playability drastically without touching a single other thing, I think it'd have been if they added gyroscope adjustment to the aiming. So many fine adjustments to make aiming for the eye weakpoints that the stiffness of the aiming itself and the Vita right stick just isn't cut out for. I think the gyroscope would have been perfect for that sort of thing.
Uhm,
he is not a pedophile, otherwise he wouldn't like Komaru. What he means with "the younger, the better" are young women (fully developed), not children before they hit puberty.
That's not how I took it. They were being pretty explicit about the fact that
Haiji likes girls younger than Komaru. Haiji straight up says that Komaru isn't young enough for him at some point prior to the one Kinsei is talking about.
Hmm, I need to re-read this section then.
I thought he liked Komaru. Also why would a pedophile ever say out loud he/she is a pedophile? In reality pedophiles wouldn't even tell their closest friends or family members that they suffer from this psychiatric disorder, because they know how other humans pre-emptively assume they are all evil criminals.
I think that's Kinsei's point, and that he would like to see less of that kind of silliness in Danganronpa 3.
If you mean like Komaru as in having a romantic interest in her, he never ever implies anything like that. He likes her as a character after her speech, if that's what you mean, but it's explicitly stated that he's basically a pedophile and openly admits it. This is why Komaru says something akin to "It's kind of cute that he admits it, in a way," and Toko replies with what is basically, "Uh... what?"
Your interpretation is far too serious for what they were going for with
Haiji's character quirk.
how messed up or socially isolated he is. It is implied he and his father violently assaulted Monaca.

FYI: There's a save bug being reported that happens at the end of Chapter 2/Start of Chapter 3.
If you save your game in between chapters 2 & 3 then try to load that save, it might not work. Always make sure to have a backup save and try to avoid saving at the prompted save after Chapter 2 finishes.

I think my biggest let-down was the executions. I was thinking their executions would relate to their ultimates, but NOPE!

You're right. I understand that dark humor has always been a big part of the series, but I personally feel like they should steer clear of jokes to do with that specific topic
after the way they handled chapter 3.

I can't resist the despair. I was going to wait a bit to get this but i'm going to pick it up today.
