999 got a fansite kit? What's that?
She looks much older on the official artwork.
Give her a different hairstyle and no one would doubt her age.
I've always been fond of that pose. So good.
Reminds me of those Bettie Page pin ups. Sexy.

How long did that take?
Does it require a condition other than getting the true end?
32 hours, just about.
Yes, you have to get all the other trophies, which means you need all the other endings + all the secrets and archives unlocked.
I played nearly straight through with very little sleep in between, lol.

Took me about 40, but I also suck at puzzles.

In a 'deadlines!' way or 'It's so good I can't put it down' way?
In a so good I couldn't put it down way. This game gripped me in a death hold and wouldn't let go until the end.
I bet you, even while suffering from sleep deprivation, are far intellectually superior though! I enjoy puzzles even though I'm mediocre at them. How long did your first playthrough take?
31:37. I was only missing a few things to get the platinum.
May I ask how good the soundtrack is?
a) in an absolute sense and
b) compared to other games from the genre like Phoenix Wright, Ghost trick, Umineko, Higurashi etc. (if you have played any of those)

The OST is very similar in tone to 999, even remixing certain themes. The right tracks are played during appropriate scenes. I'll admit that there's at least one that really creeped me out, especially playing the game so late at night.
Thank you, a fulfilling, yet at the same time slightly disappointing answer. On the one hand the 999 soundtrack was functional and pretty good, but on the other hand, after playing some more ghost trick yesterday night, and from memory of other such games, it could have been a lot better.
The music in VLR is very ambient... nothing really super-standout except for a couple tracks.

I was listening to the 999 OST a few weeks ago, and it's so creepy. It may be the scariest thing about the game.
VLR definitely has those same unsettling moments in its music.
I use this one

It's a bit more than the cheapo ones but it has great reviews and seems to be built to last. Has been working great so far and with a little practice you can flick the screen to turn the room view comfortably without overshooting and remove the need for the L/R buttons

You are not attracted to that...thing. It's terrifying.
What? Clover is very cute. I like legs too, so that's a plus.
Clover is just too cool.

I don't know how you're reconciling that character design with that physique. It's scary.
Que? What's wrong with it? I love Nishimura's work.

It's just...awful. I don't think any of the character designs in 999 are all that great, but Clover's is glaringly bad.

It strikes me as very amateurish. There's no cohesion to it, other than the loud pink.
My eyes must be twisted then. I like the style of it. It's distinctive and it has a nice stylized, detailed look to it. I want to make it my GAF avvy.
EDIT: I'm still looking at it hard and I'm not seeing the issue.
Maybe the proportions are off and I'm not seeing it or something...
Oooo, I wish they did fankits for Blazblue, lol.

Now you're just trying to upset me >:|
I agree as far as that goes, but I don't care much for the design itself. She looks miles worse in VLR in my opinion though.
Nope. I just like Clover. I only finished 999 like a few days ago because I kept seeing this thread pop up for a bit during my RE6 hype. Clover fan for about...almost a week, lol.

Yeah, I'm not really a fan of Clover's VLR design.
I'm a big fan of Kinu's work in general though.

Yes. Yes. 1000 x Yes.
Looks good, thanks!

Need to? No.
Should you? Heck yes.
The main appeal of this series is the story, and I would not suggest starting in the middle.
I'm very partial to more skin showing, provided it's done right. Less is more.

I'm hoping the character in the skimpy outfit in the third Zero Escape game is a dude. Perhaps a wrestler/bodybuilder that was gassed right after a competition?
Make it happen Spike Chunsoft.
Wait...there is a third Zero Escape game in the making? Holy shit.
Eh heh heh heh. About that third game... well, you'll see.

It hasn't been officially confirmed, but the creators have already expressed an interest in doing one.
Dammit Kagari, WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.
*starts hyperventilating*
:'D
....I have another rule too.
Bigger is better. It goes good with "Less is more" but it works with fully clothed females with great results too.
I love Yasuda's work as well as Nishi's. I love how they do their female characters. It inspires my work.
I actually agree. The creepy, ambient, parts of the soundtrack were fantastic.
Even in general, the soundtrack was good. I simply think it could have been better, as shown by other games from a similar genre. That could have pushed this game from a 9.x/10 (strong personal GOTY contender) to a guaranteed 12/10...
I was just missing some more "exciting", standout, tunes for situtions like
the final puzzle(s), the confrontation(s) with the killer(s), the unmasking of Ace, the unraveling of the mystery etc.
Think of, for example:
- Justice - Umineko
- Rougoku - Umineko
- Any "Cornered" theme from the Phoenix Wright series
- Any announcing the truth theme from Phoenix Wright
- Ghost Trick - Deepending of the night
- Ghost Trick - Countdown
