ALL HAIL PQUBE
This makes me very anxious.
AFAIK the C;H anime is trashed by everyone.How different was the Chaos;Head game compared to the anime? I remember watching it and thought it was completely terrible, putting me off of Chaos;Head.
For what it's worth, I've watched Steins;Gate and Robotics;Notes and thought both of them were excellent.

Is it as good as Steins;Gate? I really loved that one.
Very different. The game is actually good, though some people can't stand the protagonist.
It's going to be subjective of course, but I've heard opinions that Chaos;Child is the best in the series so far. Hard to say how that would be influenced by not playing Chaos;Head beforehand, though.
VNDB ratings put it above Steins;Gate 0 and below Steins;Gate.
Does Chaos;Child still have the same premise as Chaos;Head (qualia, observer effect, etc.)? The production was terrible on the anime, but I thought the premise was highly interesting, especially after having read a similar manga (Qualia the Purple).
Sad we probably won't be getting Chaos;Head Noah but STOKED, I loved C;H. ty pqube.
But with no S;G0 release date I'm not expecting this until 2018.
Yes please.
Hopefully the critically-acclaimed success of games like Danganronpa and Steins;Gate has finally made publishers realize that localizing Japanese visual novels is a worthwhile endeavor. Especially the Science Adventure series (aka. those games with a dumb semicolon in their titles).
It is great, but I wouldn't say the credit should go to those two, I'd say it's thanks to Phoenix Wright and the Zero Escape series, especially the former.
I don't know anyone personally who got steins;gate without already being into visual novels
Do you guys think it's possible that the game could come out during the first half of 2017?
I'll be expecting to receive this question again at some point. The short answer is you won't lose out on the plot, but you will lose out on the feeling.
Here's the long answer:
.Most importantly, Chaos;Child deals with the investigation of a string of grisly murders that closely mirror another string of murders that occured in 2009 during Chaos;Head.Chaos;Child is primarily about the repercussions of the "Third Melt" that occurs in Chaos;Head, how the catastrophe affected the youthful population around Shibuya, and the unique form of PTSD that springs forth afterwards
To go into Chaos;Child without Chaos;Head is certainly an option, but you will be losing out on vital world knowledge and setting familiarity that seasoned players would have from the start, you will lose out on feelings invoked by certain phrases, lines, and cameos.
Chaos;Child does explain these background details, as well as the mechanics of the science involved once the plot gets going, but without having experienced them firsthand I don't believe the reader would be nearly as invested.
Chaos;Child is an excellent game, but I don't believe I would have felt so strongly about it if I was not familiar with the setting beforehand.
To summarize, Chaos;Child will spoil the plot of Chaos;Head for you, as it is about the rippling impact caused by the events of Chaos;Head. However, it is still a very powerful story by itself, so you may play it without having played its predecessor if you have no other choice.
Answer from Reading Steiner (one of the guys who translated Steins;Gate) had this to say about getting Chaos;Child in the west without Chaos;Head:
No, Noah doesn't really have anything pertaining to Chaos;Child, but it has a lot of interesting worldbuilding information that is still nice to know.
Regarding Chaos;Head, is the VN significantly better than the anime?The anime is terrible imo
This makes me very anxious.
-Shine Star (Xtralife's owner) has listed Chaos Child, a game that was previously at Lamee (another Spanish wholesaler). Image again since it doesn't allow linking (also viewable on Shine Star's March release schedule)
Wow, so much could go wrong here......

Well, the game's still hasn't been officially announced.Chaos;Child isn't that of a surprise knowing that the series is now on Crunchyroll worldwide.
That's not meaningful at all. Most VN adaptations get simulcasted and yet don't get localized.Chaos;Child isn't that of a surprise knowing that the series is now on Crunchyroll worldwide.
