i honestly wish this series would go back to the visual novel style of 999--i mean look at those character illustrations drawn by rui tomono. is it seriously cheaper to animate 3d models than to hire an artist to draw a handful of alt expressions and cutscenes? shit, maybe start a gofundme/kickstarter/etc.
at any rate, i didn't quite care for VLR (part of that being for the 3d models) but here's to hoping this installment will be as good as the original? va's seem on point at least, i love me some mercer.

i seriously miss the old style from 999. ztd's style is honestly gorgeous, but i miss the original soooooOo much. especially since vlr only used it for concept art/box art. the atmosphere of vlr was soo boring lmao and im scared that this game might be the same?
i loved the 2d visual novel aspects of the first game. i loved reading the detailed depictions of gore and being spooked by the imagery. you didn't get that with the cute anime 3d models in vlr.

I don't mind the new look, but I still kind of wish they stuck to the original 2D Sprites like the first game for the last two games like the traditional VNs.
Nonetheless! I'll play this in Jap and even the English voice acting sounds good. The music also sounds awesome so far-
Edit: Having played it a bit so far, I can tell right away that it's easy to get used to the models and it lives up to expectation-

As someone who's actually completed the first two games and owns this one: the animations are fine. I'm actually starting to prefer them. People are free to get butthurt that it's not a AAA cinimatic experience, but humans are adaptable creatures. Getting used to the presentation in this game is a quick and fairly painless process that ends in simply enjoying it.

the new 3D models look great. but something about their mouths look. bad. They look awkward. If they're going to make full-fledged cutscenes, they should have done a better job of making the models speak right. their mouths are like that of zombies. especially diana's. The rest of her looks okay, but her stationary mouth is awkwardly to long and ajar.

These graphics look fantastic! Like VLR's but even smoother. Glad to hear Phi's got the same smexy voice, and is that Matt Mercer coming out of Troy Baker's mouth? Best replacement they could've picked! Diana's voice though, I can't tell if that's Laura Bailey or not.
Man, this game just gets better and better. UGH can't wait.

Well, so far, we have confirmed that atleast 4 are going to survive (Diana, Phi, Sigma, and Akane and _maybe_ Junpei.
In my opinion, everyone will survive in the -true end-, because if we look at the past games, in 999 only the -ninth- man died, and I don't recall anyone dying in Zero Virtue's Last Reward -true ending-.

Whether you like the game's new cinematic cutscenes or not, you can't deny that the zero escape series tried different things with each instalment instead of just making the same game with a different skin over and over again like Telltale does.

I think I felt a lonely tear on my face. That gun isn't so close to Sigma, right? Couldn't Diana. for example. hide it with her own hand? It would end up with blowing her hand, the three of them would be alive, tho.

Can somebody answer this? Will the European version contain English voices this time? Virtue's Last Reward had only Japanese voices in Europe and I was hoping Zero Time Dilemma got English voices this time around.

People, we almost didn't get this game due to the failure (sales wise) of the first two games. Instead of complaining about the animations why not appreciate the fact that we got the game in the first place?

Lmao. I seen people playing this on Twitch and idk why, but this game was just funny to me. I lost it when the villain was telling a story about the runner and said she died cause of a snail or something.

Not as much of a fan of the animation quality. I didn't like ZE: VLR's female character styles, but it did feel a bit more fitting. At least we still get the original voice actors and a great story.

You know. I never noticed this before but Phi she has like Diana's face and hair but Sigma's eyes. I wonder if she could be a jumper from a even more distant future.

Ahhhhh yes, all that classic music! Missing the -seek a way out- tune, but that's ok. And thankfully that annoying -typing sound- when speech is written out is now gone.

This ISN'T an adventure game like it's advertised. Its a search and find mixed with a VN, it's not even a game. A VN is not a game, it's just a visualized book.

The characters look way different than they used to, I wonder who or what roped them into another death game this time. (they can't catch a break)

Woho, watch out Polygon, this might have violence against female pixels, I bet that takes some diversity points off your ranking system right?

I'm assuming SIgma will turn his head and take the bullet in the eye where there is the least damage, unless that timeline isn't there.

So hyped for this game but the mouth animations really do irritate me. It's a March build though so I'm hoping it'll have been fixed by release

For a game that's supposed to be like Saw, this is pretty dull. Then again, I never played the Saw games themselves.

I hate to be a critic. But that animation is really killing it for me. I wish they would have stuck to text-based.
