It was implied to be the main story, and that a particular chapter took them 9 hours.
If anyone in here has played the game, it would be great to confirm the game length as that sounds crazy. To be fair: if the game's pacing works with the length of it, I don't mind.

Jesus, that sounds insane.
Yow, that does sound long. I don't remember hearing any complaints about how long it was, though it's been a while since I've read impressions of people who knew japanese.

DR2 was like 20 hours from what I remember though. Unless you saying you are okay with a game that is supposedly at least twice as long.

afaik it was around 30-40 hours long. HLTB backs me up with this.
I remembered being surprised, as I expected it to be 15-20 hours like the first game.

A lot of people are going to have very strong opinions about this game. Some people say it's the best game in the series. Others like me don't even want to touch it.
Score could go ether way but this WILL divide the fanbase.
fucking hell really? I remember beating it in 2 days with 10-12 hrs each. I may be in that "rushed" category though.
It's the difference between "This game is an 8 out of 10" and "this game is either a 6 out of 10 or a 10 out of 10"

My nearest Mom and Pop shop has the game available tomorrow...
the reviews have me doubting myhype hope for this game. And I already consumed everything Danganronpa related in the last couple of week.

Another thing to consider is that DR is now an established franchise in the west, the first two mainline games were released not even a year apart here and DRAE, which did release afterward to tepid response, was a spin-off
and had it's genre pretty much completely misdiagnosed
Geez, that's a huge difference from what the RPG Site review claims.

Thank you for asking!
Very happy with that, I don't have a ton of time this semester and I was worried that I was never going to see the end of DRV3.
Apologies if this has been asked before but did the Japanese version ever get the higher quality voice work as DLC for Vita?
Do we have any confirmation that the same will be available in EU or US?
Edt: Tried the demo on Vita and it made me reluctant in buying that version, the voices were very unclear.

I never knew the first danganronpa had an 80 on metacritic and the second one had an 81. For some reason I always had in mind that they were higher, the second one specially.
In any case, Danganronpa V3 having an 82 doesn't tell me much right now. However, the fact that reviews are alternating between 6/10 and 10/10 does. It really feels is going to be a love it or hate it game and that makes it much more interesting for me. Wonder in which side I will end.

NIS America confirmed on Twitter that the DLC for high quality voices on Vita would be available at release.
Thank you! And bought!
Shit I clicked this. I assume that spoiler is an extra mode like the ones in DR1 and DR2?
Rely On Horor claimed 60 hours, and God Is A Geek claimed 50 hours.
So yeah, it wasn't just me. It's a really long game, much longer than DR1, touch longer than DR2.
Yeah, I've definitely seen more people claim it's in the realm of 40 - 50 hours than something like 30, so I was pretty confused by that.
Do they state what their playtimes for 1 and 2 were? It's hard to gauge the length if they only say how long 3 was
Sorry! but yes, it's extra. It's actually a major part of why I wanted get the english version despite the fact I know what happens plotwise, because of
the interactions they have. And how it feels way more fun to actually play than that crappy clean up school mode in the original 2 games.
Also since it's extra, none of it is canon.

So it's a really polarizing game by all accounts? Hmm, it'll be interesting to see which side of the fence I fall on when it comes to playing the game myself. On the plus side, some of my favourite games have split opinion right down the middle. Heavy Rain, Jak II and Silent Hill: Shattered Memories just to name a few. Hopefully I'll like the game just as much as the other two.

The mgs2 of the franchise.
half the game is the size of danganronpa 1. the other half is all the bonus section stuff.
I mean the game's main themes are truth vs. lies, though.

My wife found and bought this for me the other day. I don't know why it exists, but I'm glad it does.

For that lucrative demographic of people who love Danganronpa and the Memphis Grizzlies!
It's actually really cute, though...
My wife said the store had a second one. If you really do want it, PM me, and we'll check to see if it's still there this weekend. I searched for it on Google briefly, and I can't find any other evidence of this thing's existence! (If you're in the Chicago area by chance, I can tell you where it was.)
No kidding. Talk a bout a niche audience. But those of us who'd want it may really want it.
I played the Japanese release of all 3 games. I'm pretty much fluent in Japanese, so I wasn't slowed down by reading or anything. 1 took me 25 hours, 2 took me 35 hours, and 3 took me around 45-50 hours.

Got the game. Backcover is pretty great kinda surprised that it's not the actual box art.
I made a thread asking the same thing and it convinced me to stay away from the anime adaptations in general. Not that all of them are bad, but that none of them really elevate the material and kinda sours the end of DR2.
luckyyyyy
Been listening to the OST again for hype and the Scrum debate music is so good.

Is Gonta more of an obvious Jojo reference in Japan?

So, I bought 1-2 Reload on the PS4. What can I say? It's truly awesome! I just love everything so far, having just finished the first class trial. The music is truly great, as is the voice-acting. I will definitely buy the third one as soon as I'm done with the first two.
I was wondering if Ultra Despair Girls was worth it? Thanks!

As far as I saw, UDG is pretty mediocre compared to 1 and 2. The gameplay in particular just seems boring.
If you're still curious about the story, then I think you're better off watching it on Youtube or reading up on it.

I would get it for cheap or rent it, otherwise you can just watch a YT movie version and you won't miss much. The game is alright with some interesting antagonists and side characters. This is the point where the franchise begins to cover the plot holes set out by the previous games. Whether its a good thing or bad thing, that depends on you and how much like the characters and world of Danganronpa.
