I know you’ll all complain about this but I must say I’m not as big into this game but I’d say there’s many things I liked.
The characters in this game are very well made and neutrally executed for personality and intuition. The graphics have to be far better than the ones in the two other games and the soundtrack is catchier for anyone’s stereo. The deaths and executions from ch1-4 are very well made for evolution even though I’m sad that Miu was revealed to be one of the non main characters in the story. The trials weren’t so bad even though the ends of them were true heart killers.
SPOILER warning
But the reason I do say is ch5 I hate more than anything else in this game, I wish somehow it was written better than how it deserves to be in canon. Kokichi nominated as the best character shouldn’t have meant to be a true antagonist but a survivor so I shall rant about that all over the internet bc I don’t care. This is biggest reason I’m not a big fan of the story, it actually sucks just as bad as Sonic Forces (since both games were released on the same year)
I must say though the training trio was one of my favorite things that ever was canon in this game including my most favorite chapter of all the game ch3 which was the caged child seance hosted by one of my favorite characters Kiyo and the virtual world from ch4 it made me go back on a journey through Goodbye Despair.
Tsumugi revealed to be the plot twist villain of the story was really effective and inspiring and gives off despair vibe from Junko. Having her be the one to be controlling everything and everyone is insane to the midest. My conclusion to be stated FOR the final chapter is that the fictional world is actually a place to create illusions to others since the fictional events were never meant to be real there the characters who’s passed away are actually still alive in the real world which that actually give so much hope to me. Yeah end of story there.
Although the epilogue is officially my most favorite thing ever from this game it really gives me the inspiration for what must happen in the afterlife of the game and how much the fandom should do to make it inspiring towards others and what the characters should do the rest of their lives especially since it’s still obvious Hopes Peak Academy and the old characters all still exist. It would also like inspire SaiOma which I love that ship with all my heart btw.
All a pose I’m not so big into the game I wish it was stronger exactly like Goodbye Despair did and how about not to be set up a pattern for it like obviously the writers were so lazy they made that happen and making it more vulgar. Sure they tried making it more mature but because of rhythm infection from the other 2 games they failed horribly. I can’t try recommending this to anyone but honestly to the ones who give all respects to this game or will never recommend this to anyone, it’s just not so fun and gives off a hateful type of depression for it’s drama as by making it all a major disappointment exactly like Shadow the hedgehog.
So in rest of my honest opinion, I recommend you all skip this game.
