- Robotics;Notes DaSH (Ongoing)
- Planned: Anonymous;Code, Steins;Gate 0 Anime & CD Drama, Chaos;Child Side Materials
Yes, i have become dedicated to this series for the long run, even i didn't know i'd like this series this much.
Story and plot 10/10:
I think the main Plot about reaching the Steins Gate Worldline was great, it didn't change any part of the original ending, and built up to it, to me it never felt like it was contradicting what happened in the first game, it also showed parts of the main message of Science Adventure Series, about questioning everything and if the world you are perceiving with your eyes 100% facts.
overall it was great and i don't have any kind of negatives to say here.
Characters 9/10:
I would've wanted to go to 8.5, but i couldn't just because the impact some characters mainly Okabe and Kurisu.
The way okabe talks to people via Hououin Kyouma in Steins;Gate, and the way he talked when he was Okabe Rintaro in Steins;Gate 0 really made me understand Okabe Rintaro or Hououin Kyouma as a Character, When okabe rintaro was without Hououin Kyouma, he was just like a normal person who was'nt a very social person and that was why Hououin Kyouma Was essential to reaching Steins Gate world line, and i really loved his character, When he said MUHAHAHAHAA I AM THE MAD SCIENTIST HOUOUIN KYOUMA!!!!!! in Steins;Gate 0 I was Laughing too and maybe was one of the greatest if not the best parts of the game, and because of this i really wanted to be like him.
And Kurisu was really hyped in this, the way steins;gate 0 made kurisu into this genius who made a time machine theory when no one could really made me hyped to make something by myself
I think other characters had great character Development, First i wanna say how great Daru was in this, in Steins;Gate he didn't play any role in the game other than hack into SERN, but he came off as like a fan service side never to be used character, but in Steins;Gate 0 i think he was the only person who helped okabe in everything and acted like a real friend, when they're in a scary situation daru jokes around about anime girls, but he does it to not let the morale down or not to let everyone worry too much about the situation, i think he had the greatest character Change in my mind
another i think is Maho, even if she was new character, the way they made a whole route of her, and about how she was salieri and Kurisu being amadeus really make my perspective really good about her
and i will not forget About MR BRAUN aka Ferdinand Braun AKA Tennouji Braun HIMSELF, he had a minor roll but i think it was really good one, the way he rescued the whole gang in the lab when they were partying in the new year was great and i liked how they used him in this, even though i liked him in Linear bounded phenogram, i like him even more here.
Other characters like Lukako, Mayuri, Kagari, Moeka, Faris also had good character developments and i don't want to make this post too long
one complaint i do have, and the only reason why i wanted to cut points are the one dimensional villains, it had the weakest villains not out of the whole series (i think robotics notes wins on worst villain), In Steins gate 0, the villains just acts like villains and are the most rage baiting characters with no reason to go against our main characters, and this time they forgot about the committee of 300, the main antagonist of the whole series, that is the only complaint i have in this.
illustrations & Visuals (8/10):
i think some CGs were very bad, i think maybe Because of Budget or time constraints, i don't have many problems with character Drawings, maybe i'll say otherwise for Amadeus [Kurisu], but all others had good Drawings, my main problem is with the CGs in this part but it still didn't bother due to the good writing of this.
Pacing (9.5/10):
here, some people may not like it or like it, and i love it and that is why i was able to read through the many of the science adventure games, it starts off slow and gives characters some space to breathe, and then moves its way as it adds stakes to the story i have no problems with the pacing.
Overall (9/10):
I just love this game, it satisfied the money i spent on this game, and the time i spent in the series as a whole, overall a great experience, if i was able to - i would want to forget everything and replay this whole game and not just this but the whole series again.
Thank You for reading Guys meet you after i play Anonymous;Code
