Kurisu's romance route being canon ruined this show

The show was always doomed because it relies too much on the suspense for what happens next. There wasn't much of a theme or character development so the show will be underwhelming on rewatch if you're not still wowed by Okabe and Kurisu.

>a thriller relies on suspense
No shit you absolute moron.

I don't like Monster or any other thrillers either desu. I think they are best suited for novel format.

The game doesn't have routes.

Most of the characters sounding like all their dialogue was written by people here is what ruined this show.

Half of them literally post on an expy of 2channel. It fits.

There's a difference between talking like that online and talking like that in actual conversation. The only character who even acted like a human being at any point was Suzuha, and even that was weird given that she was supposed to be traumatised from her world falling part or some shit.

no it was ruined by sucking hard and being shit

>why are characters who are established to be nerdy eccentrics who spend too much time on the internet from the word go not behaving like normal people?

I'm not asking why they're like that? I'm just calling them shit.

They make perfect sense in context, so complaining about it is nonsensical.

Not really. The plot can function without it featuring a cast who talks almost entirely in unfunny internet buzzwords, so it's fine for me to complain about it.

That's not even remotely true and you know it. You're just disproportionately annoyed by casual references.

Like I said, Suzuha was the only one who even acted remotely like a human being at any point. This and Danganronpa have the same method of having the cast talking like internet memers at all times and it's just not for me I guess, in S;G's case it completely ruins an otherwise interesting story unnecessarily for me.

Not at all.

Spoil me on S;G0, I heard there is a Mayuri route

Yes, but she is forever denied Okarin since Kurisu won his heart.

ITT: the characters of Steins;Gate are shit because they're spergs who, unsurprisingly, speak and act like spergs

The Mayuri route in SG0 is literally better than any part of the original SG VN.

Threadly reminder the S;G is the Rick And Morty of anime.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Steins;gate. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of otaku culture and theoretical physics, most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Okabe's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his persona draws heavily from Nordic mythology, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Steins;gate truly ARE fools- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Okabe's existential catchphrase "the choice of Steins;gate" which itself is a cryptic reference to Einstein's theory of relativity. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Chiyomaru Shikura's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them.

And yes, by the way, i DO have a Steins;gate tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. El psy kongroo

SG0 was a trainwreck
