Chapter 5:
Explored the fifth floor and... is this place underground? It's pointed out that there are no stairs going up now, but the building shown early on is definitely more than five floors.
The botanic garden/greenhouse feels like more evidence that this is a Fallout Vault and the last line of the game will be war, war never changes. The Crazy Diamond thing is weird, though, and seems to fall in line with the photographs that Naegi finds on floors 3 and 4.

Okay, here, laugh at my chapter 3 predictions based on very little evidence. Just started the deadly game.
I need to work on this. Well, it'll all come out in the trial anyway...
/edit Hmm, Kyoko finally started talking and I may have to revise this theory already
I think Celeste is the mastermind, with Hifumi as an accomplice. This is based on the fact that Celeste was the one found 'unconscious' in the rec room first and claims she was attacked at 7am, and is also the one constantly screaming to draw attention to disappearing bodies etc.
Hifumi cleans his glasses when Asahina and Celeste leave the room and scarpers to the top floor, where he is killed for real.
This theory is pretty dependent on being able to fake-trigger the body-discovery announcement though... hmmmm... and I don't have great grounds for a motive... pure conjecture right now

My favorite english voices are the ones of Hifumi and Hiro, they make me laugh when they scream lol, best voice acting is a tie between Junko and Toko.
While the voices are good sometimes the recording is not imo, sometimes it sounds recorded from a bad/amateurish microphone, in addition to hear well what people say i had to put the volume music and effects almost at minimum while the voices are at maximum.

Urgh, I didn't know a truth bullet conversion could carry over when the conversation loops. Got stuck for a while there.
My vita screen keeps going haywire, thinks it's being pressed constantly and speeds through conversation text sometimes. Irritating as fuck.
Also, the delay between firing a bullet and it landing is irritating as fuck

In VLR, you're tasked to solve puzzles in rooms, rather than investigating and solving murders. I personally think that murder investigation is better than arbitrary puzzle solving.
However VLR has better story than Danganronpa. For me the end of Danganronpa makes me go, "Hmm this sounds crazy and weird", but by the end of VLR, I was like, "What the fuck did they do again?".
Imo they are too similar despite Daganronpa having investigation instead of puzzles, later i will open a thead about this(i want to finish Daganronpa first, i had to go to bed almost at the end of the final trial), consider that Daganronpa on PSP was released 2 years before VLR.
The tone is a bit darker and it's a bit less mindscrew-y. In each chapter you do some free exploring around the school, pick which characters to hang out with for some more detail about their character/past/motivations, investigate a murder, and then go to a class trial where you debate who did it while occasionally playing simple minigames. So the gameplay is more streamlined and spread more evenly throughout the game rather than VLR's segmented "story" -> "extended puzzle room sequence" -> "story" structure.
You'll probably like it a lot.
Anyone remember what character gives you the skill that speeds up the truth bullet speed a ton?
Yeah but 999 was released a year before Dangan Ronpa sooooooooooooo
Yeah but i'm not talking about the gameplay
I guess I've got more cases to complete!

Still working through Chapter 2's case, but it's been interesting so far.
EDIT: Also, do the skills I set get auto-activated or do I have to go to some sort of menu to activate them while in the trial (after I activated them pre-trial, obviously)?
Got up to when the group is trying to figure out if Mondo (IIRC the name for the biker gang/bancho guy) is the killer. Based on what's happened so far I'm having a feeling that Ultimate Moral Compass guy did it with the gender twist reveal.
And I so called Toko being a killer, at least in some fashion. Her VA did a great job when the split personality came out.

Well, actually

They're automatically active once you have set them prior to the trial.
They'll automatically be applied throughout the trial if you have them selected beforehand.

I'm assuming I've got just Chapter 6 and the epilogue left.
I don't want this to end =(

Their effects are all automatic.
If you've equipped them, they're equipped and their effect will be applied automatically, at least for those that I got.
It's cool to see many people enjoy this game. Definitely seems like the type of game people will progressively come to learn of and have fun with just like Zero Escape, Persona 4 Golden or Ace Attorney.
Thanks! I might even finish it on the train home then. I could be crying or shouting or anything, this is all very exciting.

Guess that makes sense hearing the VA in the scene again. Still a damn good English voice over, though.
Due to all the mentions of VLR, I feel it would behoove me to once again remind everyone to not play VLR until you play and complete 9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors. You get much more out of VLR if you do.

Back on topic, still trying to plat this game. Stupid Monokuma machine...

Yup, playing VLR before 999 is like playing SDR2 before DR.

This is gonna be hard to resist. I have in on VIta via + and don't really feel like tracking down 999.

There are good commentary-less Let's Plays on YouTube. Purists will argue "NO YOU NEED TO PLAY THE GAME TO FULLY APPRECIATE IT", I had no problem with watching through 999 the first time. Where the game is so heavily story based, unless you LOVE puzzle rooms you won't really miss out by watching instead of playing.
Wow, that pic took that scene to a new level of disturbing. I laughed. And I cried.

If anyone is on the fence, I also wrote a review for the game. Check it out if you want.

Up to Chapter 5 now. Enjoying this game a ton. I hadn't heard of it until people started discussing it in Zero Escape threads, so I'm glad I decided to check it out. It' s probably one of the most tense games I've played since Corpse Party. I love how they give you a reason to like most of the characters, only to doom them to a horrible death.
Chapter thoughts so far.

Chapter 3retty much called the murderer right at the beginning.
was a bit too suspicious. Didn't figure out the details until much later, but there were almost no surprises for me this time. Didn't dislike the chapter, but most boring case so far.
Chapter 4: Called the entire the case the moment the body was found. Pretty much got it dead on in every detail except

Don't have many theories about the overall plot. It's too mysterious for me to put together. The only thing I can kind of guess is that

Either those would explain the mysterious photos, but other than that I've got nothing.
Oh, and I'm on the anti
side. I really don't like that character one bit. It's probably the one character so far that does nothing for me.

everyone here knew each other and their memories are all false. They were somehow kidnapped and memories were swapped by the mastermind, who could have been another friend or person they wronged in the "real world",

I just finished Chapter 5. Shit is getting interesting :O
Also, I think I've found something out that will be revealed in chapter 6.
CHAPTER 6 SPECULATION
Don't tell me if I'm right though, I want to find out myself.

I think the body of chapter 5 is actually Junko's corpse. The false nails and multiple wounds that were days old heavily hint at that. If true, that means the 16th student is still around, should be a fun chapter .

DR>TLOU confirmed!
BTW you might want not to read that review before clearing Chapter 2. They seemed to have problems with
Chihiro being a boy and how it is handled. ehh
Finished! Very good, not VLR but a strong story. Also I'm delighted I can now click on DanganRonpa threads as I've nearly clicked on the two spoiler-filled ones we've got over the last few days and that would've been a disaster.
I did the start again with the English VO just to see what it was like and man that Monokuma is nowhere near as terrifying as the Japanese one.
