Glad it's just not me. I had to put the game down for the night after I finished the puzzle because I couldn't take any more lol.

Why are the 'cutscenes' so bad looking even on 3ds?
Like the pretended stuff you saw on early psx lol. Those stills aren't even 3d (lead platform my ass)
And something is up with how they compressed there videos.
And did the game really go battle star galactica on me?
God damn. Shit is getting fuck.
Also why are dudes named Dio in all fiction dicks?

I have no character endings yet. I've unlocked one lock
(I made another copy of the cure for Radical 6).
I've gotten about 5 'To Be Continued' and about 5 'Game Over' screens. I need some character endings!

No endings means you need o keep playing to get past the locks.
There are 2 endings with no locks on them.
Yeah I have to agree on that one. There were all pretty short too, never really adding too much anyway.

I'll probably get all the character endings all in one go...
I really hope my brain can handle it all and not blow up.
Thanks for the advice.

Just got my US-Version for the Vita, feels a bit clunkier compared to the Stylus-controls of the predecessor, but I'll manage. What's up with the missing manual though? That's really cheap, Aksys...
Vita games all have digital manuals, check the icons above the activation thingy.

I did and all i got from it was
Maybe I'm tired and not seeing it. D:
the red is 50mg and the green one weighs more than the blue but less than the red.
You should be able to figure out the exact weight of the blue and green as well

If you have all three weights, you have enough info. Remember the priorities of different math signs.
Yeah, I got stuck for five minutes there lol

Alright I got it! Maybe I shouldn't be doing this at 5 AM but I feel so close to the end.
Thanks everyone!

Just as a general comment, typos aside the writing for VLR is a lot less awkward than it could be occasionally in 999; the prose is a lot better. I remember the prologue/everything up to the first set of doors in 999 could really be a struggle to get through at times, and there were always these awkward things like "He looked at her for 1.5 seconds" or something like that that always stood out for me. Nothing like that at all in VLR; the whole damn thing just flows. Glory be.
Some informations froms Rising Star Games' Facebook account (concerning the EU version, copy and paste from another user):
About the demo and the game-breaking save bug :
Wonder if that means a patch will be released. Unfortunately, it certainly looks like it won't be before the European release.
About a possible release of English voices as DLC :

You're welcome! A DLC has not yet been discussed for Virtue's Last Reward. At the moment we are just focused on seeing the release through smoothly. We would have to consider it at a much later dateThanks for your feedback

Oh God....theyre all
(dont answer that LOL) I had predicted
Also,
And oh look -
Hmmmmmmmmm.
Can someone explain
I'm so lost. He mentioned something about
on Mars arent they?
the moon ages ago.
that welded door in the PEC room is suspicious, a bomb could maybe blow that away.
It being located in the pressure chamber only makes things more suspicious as it will lower the impact of the blast.
6 suits in the lockers, all waiting to be used.
Can someone explain
that whole radio conversation and Tenmyouji's explanation of it?
the Nevada site? Was he talking about what happened in 999?

Err...ok? I still have pretty much zero clue what that was all about. Dot point summary? ^_^ (no spoilers)

Welp...
Ugh... Oh well. I still have 5 character endings left until I'm done. I'm sure all of my questions will be answered. (Only to bring up new ones!) >.<
Dio's Ending was pretty awesome. Kinda suckish with that semi-cliffhanger and all, but I'll live... What the hell is going on though? There's some way to jump across timelines? And it's apparently exclusive to Sigma and Phi?
Well, that kinda explains the flowchart. It also seems a bit unreliable for obtaining information, since Phi says she might not remember everything, but the game makes a pretty big deal that Sigma is a pro at memorizing things (Safe passwords, different timeline events for story locks, not to mention the memo/brain memory feature!)
I'm liking how everything is sort of fitting together, but the more questions are answered, the more come up. Just who exactly is Phi? And where is this place? Post-apocalyptic Earth? Or something else? Is that the 2028 Lunar Eclipse or one after it? I ask because how would Tenmyouji and Old Lady Akane be there? From some research, the 2028 eclipse is viewable in East Asia... That is pretty strange considering most of the players are seemingly from the US.

Thanks, this is all very interesting. eShop version, though? That's rather surprising, as far as I can remember, the Japanese version didn't even release on the Japanese eShop, so this would be quite ... astounding 0_o
I wonder if they're just talking about the PSN version and are, for whatever reason, using the terms PSN and eShop interchangeably... D:
How nice that they're seemingly getting a 3DS demo ready... hope it actually happens, this game needs all the exposure it can get.

Just got my first proper ending (Dio). This game is game has such a vice grip on me. While i agree that the pacing is definitely not as good as 999's (due to how the game is structured this time around), and that they got rid of one of my favorite parts of 999 (Dialogue sequences in the middle of puzzles) The story is still engrossing as all hell as well as streamlining a lot of things. It really looks like its going to be my GOTY at this rate despite so many good games this year overall (also helps that i finally got 999 and perfect ending'ed it right before jumping into VLR)
17ish hours in.
1 scene where I could continue had I more information
1 to be continued
1 game over
This game rocks!
Based upon the spoilers below (detailing the three routes I have taken to far) does anyone have a suggestion how to proceed in order to maximize the fun?
I agree, the atmospheric, creepy and suspense part of the OST is fantastic. I hope the action sequences OST (and when reveals are finally made) is better than in 999 though, because I thought that part was really weak.

I have gone through one path each, starting at the very begining, one left, one middle and one right. The very most left one, a middle one where sigma gets stabbed by the needle but its to be continued and on the right where sigma also gets stabbed but its game over. If its important, I always chose 'Ally'.
How do I best proceed? Same paths, but betray, entirely new paths, or something different altoghether?

The OST of this game is so fucking good. I love this kind of music, it keeps you on edge. Great for programming

I recommend the middle path
There are several endgame songs that are phenomenal.
That makes me very happy, thanks
. Looking forward to it.Thanks.
Only 3 hours in and I'm beginning to appreciate the english va a lot more than I thought I would. That feeling of starting a new visual novel/text-heavy puzzle adventure is great, loving the setup and the new (and familiar) faces of the game.
Quick question, a friend of mine wants to play the game without va. Is there an option somewhere that I'm missing or is it just not possible?

TWO SIGMAS?!?!??! WTF. I picked up sigma was "old" from tidbits from phi and etc but I didn't expect 2 fucking sigmas
Also need help
I just finished talking to Akane and she mention something to kyle about going somewhere in the past but I don't see anything on the flow chart. I got the "End or Beginning" but I don't know where to go from there.
Shucks, if that's the only option then he'll miss out on the great atmosphere that the music adds.
There are two "bonus" segments that aren't attached to the main flow chart. There's one at the very top. There's one in the very bottom right called "Another Time". If you've seen both of these, you're done. Get ready for Zero Escape 3!
There's no way to turn off the VA IIRC.
