Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma Thread

Greetings again, shitters.

How has the horrific noncanon metafiction impacted your lives?

And should we make a plan to return here in 12 years so we can experience the second coming of Kyle?

so returning to the "why was the 'all wards are connected' twist necesary" maybe so Delta was able to mindhack them

Its metacanon but we are still here, and kyle is in 2028 shifing with our consciousness of 2016.
therefore
KYLE IS THE PLAYERS CONSCIOUSNESS YOU DUMB FUCKS

It was a twist to be a twist.

What stops him from making multiple secret rooms?

When the walls started glitching out I thought they were gonna pull a "HAHA GOTCHA THIS IS A COMPUTER SIMULATION." Almost turned the game off.

they needed to be together in force quit end

It's so Mira could walk free and do whatever she wanted probably.

I was praying that it was all a simulation the second I saw the alien bullshit.

But no.

Screw returning here in 12 years.
Do we want to meetup on the literal ruse cruise in 2?

This is actually makes sense.

Sure got a million bucks?

I hear you user.

mistery solved, let's move to another question

Don't post spoilers in OP

>Nonary games livestream in 2 years

Except, you know

The only thing she actually did while she had free roam of the facility was cut up Junpei into pieces while EVERYONE else was sleeping.

Which could EASILY have been done by one of the many Seanbots.

Image is totally meaningless unless you've played VLR

And then Zero chokes a bitch for doing just that. Like what did you think was gonna happen?

they are connected so it's easier for the btos to clea the mess

Is it really a spoiler tho?
I mean, it's not canon.

In the end, since now we can make our own canon, does the series itself any sense at all?

Only time will tell.

But if you start playing it it would be a spoiler

She also killed Team D and escaped, spreading Radical-6 into the world.

I still intend to do the 12 years thing, but sure, but I wouldn't mind dying several times in a Nonary Game.

okay so if i got this right: june died in the incinerator and santa fixed this by making the nonary game and having junpei transmit to her to solve the puzzle and bring her back to life. and the timelines merge because june is zero. right?

Why would you even be in this thread if you're in the middle of playing? Don't be an idiot.

She kills D team too

The mask is off though, that's a spoiler for VLR

another ZE thread to reach post limit, truly the most tsundere fanbase of all

Was it revealed who cut Junpei to pieces in that scenario?

I'm drawing blank and can't remember if any other storied coincided with that.

Nah, that's a shitty answer since Mira wasn't needed for anything in the game.

>Putting people in danger to cause SHIFTing
She never does this. In fact, the one time it would have made sense, Sigma and Phi can't SHIFT anymore.

>Cutting up Junpei
There's more Seanbots than Servbots - Mira was completely unnecessary for this.

>Injecting Radical-6
Radical-6 apparently gets out in most timelines anyways regardless of Mira - she's not necessary for it at all.

>Unhinging Eric
Eric is a pin's drop away from losing his fucking mind at ALL times, he doesn't need Mira dieing to go completely apeshit.

That's why I said OP, you don't even need to be in the thread to see it, you could be scrolling through Sup Forums and see it.

Mira

Well you guys are right about her killing D-Team, that storyline amounted to absolutely NOTHING.

And there's a million and one ways for Radical-6 to get out to the world, especially with so many FTS agents.

Again, totally meaningless unless you've played VLR

wait what did I miss something
spoonfeed me i am a little baby

too many buts, user. You're obsessed and I wish I had the Phi butt picture to give to you

>Radical-6 apparently gets out in most timelines anyways regardless of Mira - she's not necessary for it at all.
i think i remember Delta specifically saying Mira was needed to spread the virus

>Eric is a pin's drop away from losing his fucking mind at ALL times, he doesn't need Mira dieing to go completely apeshit.
Weak argument. Eric only completely loses his shit and starts shooting when Mira dies

There's a few logistical reasons for Delta to want to have all the wards connected.

Easier to travel between, less money required, etc.

There's no reason it needed to be revealed as a "twist" for the characters or the players, since it doesn't affect anything.

If you haven't played the game, it's just some generic looking guy. On top of that, he isn't the only person revealed to be under the suit. It would mean nothing to someone who hasn't finished VLR.

>he didn't save Phi butt
what are you, gay?

Why use the test site to spread radical 6 at all then?

I think Akane and Aoi built the Nonary Game together, but she couldn't leave the area or something like that. I mean, the only reason the second Nonary Game was exactly like the first one was because Akane was replicating what she saw from Junpei's eyes, like the gun Ace ends up using. I'm pretty sure it was mentioned in the 999 Q&A.

But Phi spreads it too

here's the meme collection:
mega.nz/#F!kt4iAATD!Kqr7zzAdm_WlItB32nYTgw

Because spreading the virus was not his primary object.
The test site was needed for Sigma and Diana to make wild sex

There's literally no reason for that either.

Delta visited Sean a lot in the hospital. All he would have needed to do is inject Radical-6 into one of the patients during his last visit, or any time actually, and voila, instantly 6 billion.

Mira was the one that infected Phi creating the spread

Uchikoshi replied to some guy on Twitter saying something like, "Kyle shows up in OUR timeline in 2028! VLR's Another Time ending wasn't canon, it was a response to the tsunami in Japan!"

So why not kidnap only them and force them to have wildsex?

>Diana running back in was just her coping mechanism
I'd understand if it was just that, but there was that little ball of light that represents someone shifting, and she acts really freaky when she says "I'm not going".

>Phi will never spread it for you
why even live
epigenetics

Uchi tried to do damage control.

Instead of fixing plotholes, it's choose your own canon now.

so like she was thrown 9 years into the future?

so how are you guys dealing with the crippling disappoint

We can all agree Carlos is gay right? No man that fine and aint gay

Oh, that's easy.

That was an Uchi's a hack.

fapping to all the porn
oh wait

You're wrong on several different accounts.

Actually, a lot of accounts.

Read this, then come back.

By watching some game I don't care about.
USA! USA! USA!

alternate ending of vlr akane talks to the player about kyle. kyle goes to 2028, the player is in this metafiction ending, which does not happen in game. but kyle is with the player now shifting to 2028 playing the ZTD so you are basically kyle., having his big part. which is totally not canon in the game.

11/10

It is canon if you want it to be.

Because he needed Sigma and Diana to use the transporter and AlienFax his baby self and Phi, so he could be born and live his life in the past.

And also he needed the whole test facility to create his "find the terrorist dream team"

Young Sigma's face is right there on the cover.

I never wasnt before unless anyone is actually this dense.
but I guess Sup Forums is Sup Forums

nope its definetly canon IRL just not the game

Um... user...

>Still no updates on the watches
Is there a time limit on Amazon refunds? Honestly tempted at this point, since I was planning on selling the game anyway. It's unopened.

>>Putting people in danger to cause SHIFTing
>She never does this. In fact, the one time it would have made sense, Sigma and Phi can't SHIFT anymore.
Not to mention the fucking Decision Game does a fine job of providing danger.

Just replayed that part, no blue ball of light, just Diana spasming. Maybe Delta is right and he's really just pretending so Sigma and Phi won't think less of her. He couldn't possibly mind hack her though, being dead and all...

But Uchi said I can choose my canon, so if I want it to be canon it is.

It's canon in my copy of the game... It explains a lot of stuff, heh..

No, and that's a weird thing to say about a character that was deliberately fine-tuned for maximum appeal.

And a lot of people find Sigma to be more attractive, but he's obviously a raging straight man.

She's actually really a fucking nutcase.

I think the worse part of that scene is that Delta, her own fucking son, made a goddamn recording taunting her about having to kill 6 other people, WHEN HE WAS THE ONE WHO MINDHACKED HER INTO KILLING THE 6 OTHER PEOPLE.

How did Delta create Radical-6?

Why did Delta set it up so there were multiple instances where he could die, even though he would permanently die because he couldn't SHIFT?

Why did Delta pretend to be a participant in for the Mars Test Site when he could've just used Sean for the 9th person and told the other 8 that his helmet was an experiment for the Mars stuff?

How did Delta know that he was Sigma and Diana's son? He couldn't Mind Hack™ the information out of anyone because no one knew.

Why did he create a cult when his only goal was to make Sigma and Diana fuck, and to spread Radical 6? He had enough manpower from the Sean robots.

Why were Mira, Eric and Sean needed at all? The other six were SHIFTers, so they could help find the terrorist. What purpose did the others serve?

Why didn't Delta just spread Radical 6 in a much easier way, like injecting anyone at the hospital he was at when he was visiting Sean?

How was Phi able to jump so high and move so far forward when she kicked Delta? She wasn't on the moon anymore.

Why did Delta choose the term, "Mind Hack"?

Why does this game make no sense?

so 2028 is going to happen irl but only if we want it to. jsut like when we should ahve injected radical 6 or not have.

truly the rusecroozneverends

Carlos is gay.

It's canon.

>a lot of people find Sigma to be more attractive
Yeah, as far as I've seen on other websites, that's the case by far.

Watches are coming in 2028. GET HYPE

Delta takes bullying to complex levels.

Exactly.

So when no one is taken over by Kyle in 2028, Uchi will say it's because it's not the canon that anyone in THIS timeline truly wanted - but in other timelines, there WILL be people taken over by Kyle because that's the canon they wanted. We won't see it of course, since our timeline will be the one where no one TRULY wants to have Kyle inside them.

My bad then, I remembered wrong. Ok, my canon is that it was all an act

Sigma hits on more of my physical preferences, but he's a dick and a deadbeat dad and that is a huge turn-off. I'd hit it, but I'd put a ring on Carlos

I'm not that user, but is there any particular reason why you're saying that beyond your personal fixation with it? I didn't really notice anything in-game that suggests it.

Blocked.

i thought of making that picture as soon as akane and junpei figured out the one anagram

Carlos has a sister complex in Uchi's canon, so your canon doesn't quite match up.

Unless in your canon, Carlos's sister is a trap. Then it makes sense.

Alien virus.

Because he read it that way. Bootstrap paradoxes make little sense.

Read above.

He faxes himself to the past so young Delta can read his mind and set up ZTD.

Sean robots are expensive.

Petty revenge. Mira caused Sean's death.

He probably does, we just don't see it because it happens after ZTD failed.

Epigenetics.

It sounds cool.

Because life is simply unfair.

>How did Delta create Radical-6?
He kidnapped people to create weird shit like Alice's dad, or see the answer to Q4
>Why did Delta set it up so there were multiple instances where he could die, even though he would permanently die because he couldn't SHIFT?
He was old he didnt care
>Why did Delta pretend to be a participant in for the Mars Test Site when he could've just used Sean for the 9th person and told the other 8 that his helmet was an experiment for the Mars stuff?
Who knows, Gab being a guiding dog makes some sense but people here say it doesn't
>How did Delta know that he was Sigma and Diana's son? He couldn't Mind Hack™ the information out of anyone because no one knew.
Either old Phi shifted at some point and he mindhacked her, or he mindhacked his parents when he was born and had all their memories
>Why did he create a cult when his only goal was to make Sigma and Diana fuck, and to spread Radical 6? He had enough manpower from the Sean robots.
Epigenetics, he needed the weird conditions to have his powers
>Why were Mira, Eric and Sean needed at all? The other six were SHIFTers, so they could help find the terrorist. What purpose did the others serve?
Mira is the piranha in the koi tank, I guess Eric is like Lotus and was a person that needed answers, I don't know about Sean
>Why didn't Delta just spread Radical 6 in a much easier way, like injecting anyone at the hospital he was at when he was visiting Sean?
Because he wanted to create a timeline without R6 too, he needed to wait for the plan to fail beofre doing it.
>How was Phi able to jump so high and move so far forward when she kicked Delta? She wasn't on the moon anymore.
She is no man
>Why did Delta choose the term, "Mind Hack"?
Japanese people probably think MAINDO HAKKU sounds good
>Why does this game make no sense?
no u

fuck im gay

>thinking a character without any love interest or even interest in romance is gay
It's probably a tumblrina thing. No use overthinking it, y'know?

Delta recovered it using mind hack

Delta mind hacked shifters so he know the outcomes

Delta mind hacked himself and forced himself to give sean a chance at a happy life via sean paradise ending

Delta mind hacked his own dna

Delta needed to be born in order to mind hack, but mind hack couldn't determine where guy kills 8billion is, mind hack

Delta needed a killer so the other shifters could shift mind hack

Delta didn't mind hack radical 6 yet mind hack

Phi, while not being able to mind hacked, can kick hack mind hackers

Cuz "fucking your mom" was taken thus mind hack

Mind hack

Kyle is his own character though. He isn't implied to be the player like "?" is.

Ok, I know I'm like a month late, but I just finished the game.

Someone give me a quick lowdown, since I've been avoiding threads religiously since about two weeks before the game came out. I wish I hadn't.

Is everyone or even anyone else just as absolutely livid as I am?

i feel like I got jerked around a fuck of a lot, and for no adequate reason, especially with all the meaningless "twists". I am not happier for having played this game, and it certainly wasn't with the 4 year wait.

Carlos was the best character by far.

>He was old he didnt care

Of course he cared, he was still alive in VLR.

Mom...

Uchi confirmed that Kyle will enter our bodies in 12 years. He will be a player then.

I think we can ALL agree that Carlos is by far the best character and deserves his own game where you rescue people who are trapped in burning buildings.

>Carlos is the best character by far
Someone posted a oc folder and there's a good amount of content inspired by him:
Summing these threads up, a lot of us are livid but half of us have taken to medicating ourselves on memes.

>How did Delta create Radical-6?
Free the Soul scientists i guess

>Why did Delta set it up so there were multiple instances where he could die, even though he would permanently die because he couldn't SHIFT?
it doesn't matter in the end, he mind fucks SHITTERS and sees what he did so it's basically the same, for him the VLR timeline is the only thing that mattered

>Why did Delta pretend to be a participant in for the Mars Test Site when he could've just used Sean for the 9th person and told the other 8 that his helmet was an experiment for the Mars stuff?
for the epic twist

>How did Delta know that he was Sigma and Diana's son? He couldn't Mind Hack™ the information out of anyone because no one knew.
but he did

>Why did he create a cult when his only goal was to make Sigma and Diana fuck, and to spread Radical 6? He had enough manpower from the Sean robots.
it's too complex

>Why were Mira, Eric and Sean needed at all? The other six were SHIFTers, so they could help find the terrorist. What purpose did the others serve?
Mira started the outbreak, Eric went in because there was actually a mars mission experiment and Q...

>Why didn't Delta just spread Radical 6 in a much easier way, like injecting anyone at the hospital he was at when he was visiting Sean?
didn't i tell you? my motives are very complex he needed Diana and Sigma to fuck

>How was Phi able to jump so high and move so far forward when she kicked Delta? She wasn't on the moon anymore.
anime powers

>Why did Delta choose the term, "Mind Hack"?
it sounds cool

>Why does this game make no sense?
you people aren't even trying to come up with explanations, you want the information to be served to you when the creator wants people to come up with explanations because he is a hack
