Great, second time the room has crashed on me. Fuck it, I'll go back to it later.
It's not necessary but it is a sequel and 999 is worth playing just for itself. VLR's story is enhanced by playing 999 most assuredly.So I know I asked this probably when the game came out, but after P4G I'm finally convinced to give the game a go... but is it really necessary to play 999? I have it, but the idea of playing through another 20 hour experience just to get to a 20 hour experience really doesn't appeal to me at the moment.
(Considering I'm already 70 hours into P4G )

Tenmyouji‘s ending ;A;
So far, 999 hasn‘t been an absolute necessity, but I‘ll be damned if it doesn‘t add a lot to the emotional impact.
How is hat even possible?Just realized Ive played this game for 95 hours.......
oooh ok! That makes sense. No wonder that ending kind of just, happened.^
If it said "To be continued" then that wasn't an ending. You'll have to get back there later when you have more info from other routes.
So yeah, go do that.
Should I not be reading the secret files until finishing the game?Now to go back and read all the secret files.
You meanlike the lion eating the sun password screen? It's weird they didn't outright lock that until you got both the ID and password. I'm trying to find the password now.
Silver files are what you get instead of Gold files if you were playing on easy, iirc. I'm unsure of how different the contents are, though.Gold files are the secret files. Silver files... I don't know what silver files are, I assume just the exit code.
My question is will 999 be the same? If so, is the story THAT incredible that I won't mind all the reading? I've read through pretty much all of the 999 threads, including LTTP, but I feel like this question is a bit more specific to my own interests/enjoyment.
Thank you in advance for any replies.
EDIT: I guess to clarify, I don't necessarily have an issue with "all the reading." I guess I just expected a puzzle genre game with a story to have a bit better pacing? If 999 is similar, then maybe this just isn't for me.
Alright GAF, you guys haven't let me down yet but I'll ask here even though it's not technically about Virtue's Last Reward. My backlog is nothing but DS/3DS. I had recently finished Kingdom Hearts 3D and had decided to make Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask my next choice (it is my very first Layton game) followed by 999. Problem is I'm having a very hard time enjoying Layton with how much reading is involved and what feels like so few puzzles in between (I'm currently ~40 puzzles in). I kind of just went in expecting puzzle after puzzle, and it really ends up dragging for me. I will finish Layton though just because I have to finish each game I start.

I don't share the concern about waiting to finish the game before looking at the hidden files. That's what I did, based on GAF's advice, and it was really a let down. I didn't notice any of the files giving away any major plot points. In fact, they were all pretty boring.
I am playing the game without 999 and really enjoying it so far. The writing is great and the VA is awesome, but man, the aesthetics are just wrong. Every character looks utterly out of place, except Sigma and the old fart and Phi. Alice is completely embarrassing. I could never even imagine where she got what she has on. Maybe a jewelry store or like Home Depot.
