On "Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward"

Nov 04, 2012 01:02

I'm going to try to post what I learn in each room/route. I want to do it as I do each playthough so my experience of it won't be tainted by memory of other rooms. I'll probably do this in point form, and continue it in the Comments. One person on Twitter mentioned keeping track of everything in Excel XD My memory may be incorrect in some places--I ( Read more... )

AB Game Round 2 Betray:

→Tenmyouji kept his promise to pick Ally.
→Alice & K kept their promise to pick Ally to Quark's Ally.
→Phi (voting for Luna too) picks Betray to Dio's Betray.

→Tenmyouji states that there might not be anyone left out there for Clover to get help from.
→Fade to "Game Over".

(I wondered earlier if these 9 people are there to Morphogenic Field with the Mars' group? To prevent Radical-6 from fucking everything up? A gold file from the Infirmary claims Radical-6 is integral to VLR's plot.)

I can't remember where, but the Cyan AB Game Round 1 reminded me that at some point on this route:

→Phi briefly explains the Prisoners' Dilemma.

...Placeholder for Crew Quarters ■Lock No. 02■ Is there proof it wasn't murder?...

I stayed-up to start this as not knowing what was behind the Lock was bothering me! I was antsy at first to play it as it involves Alice's bloodied corpse-and with 999 1 corpse usually means more soon-and my needing to wake-up early for physiotherapy. After the Lock though I went to sleep, so some things from it aren't fresh in my mind.

→Tenmouji picks Ally this time.
→When Tenmyouji confronts Sigma, Sigma says "But you picked

Clover - END:
→No-one but a still sleeping Quark is in the Treatment Center.
→No-one is in the Warehouses, Pantry, Lounge, or Crew Quarters.
→Sigma runs to the Infirmary.
→He freezes & collapses to the floor (I suspected Radical-9 when the top screen went all wonky).
→He feels blood with his hand.
→Looking up he sees the bloodied corpses of Phi, Tenmyouji, Luna, Clover, Alice, & Dio.
→K is not there.
→He also sees a very bloody scalpel.
→In extreme horror he grabs the scalpel and slits his own throat.
→Credits roll (I was giddy to see @AksysGames_Bo's & @Benpants' names after that traumatic event).
→Fade out to "Clover - END".

So I got my first real ending (it shows a picture of Clover on the 6TH of the little boxes on the save file).

Not a good ending, but the whole Snake gets bodyguards, runs away from home, composes new age harp music, and becomes a psychic secret agent story was hilariously worth it!

Now that I finished the Green route, FINALLY going the red route. Dio has an awesome hat (and I won't say who his design, that hat, blonde hair, & blue eyes remind me of), and has been a character I've been hoping to like. So far he has been a jerk though. So let's see what spending more time with him brings!
