I played these games for the mystery/problem solving and found DR1 too simple, DR2 great and DRV3 just getting repetitive. Somehow there is always a double murder in case 3 and the big person always dies in case 4

Fun fact: Mid-case three, I predicted Angie and Tenko would die. based on their actions during the case (Angie going even more insane, Tenko pretending to go insane). Post case 3, I predicted the entire rest of the game. I don't remember where I wrote this, but it went something like this.

Hinata has been tortured two cases in a row and had a major growth spurt. She survives.
Maki is Fuyuhiko. Standoffish with a criminal background. She survives.
Miu has outlived her usefulness. She'll be killed by Gonta, hopefully in some sort of accident because Gonta's not a bad guy.
Kaito is Chiaki. He'll be the case 5 killer
Kokichi is Nagito. He'll be the case 5 victim
If the mastermind is among the players, it's Tsumugi. She's been in the background since case 1 and has no real qualities to her. The only other option is Keebo, but that's ROBOPHOBIC.

I pretty much had Keebo living by a matter of POE, though they suicided him at the end so I guess that was a thing.

DR3 is basically just DR2 reskinned. You have the exact same niches just being filled by different characters. I thought Maki was a lock to survive the moment her assassin reveal hit at the end of case 2.

I feel like DR for all it's twists was an incredibly predictable series, and also a series with tons of wasted potential because of all the times they played it safe when they could've gone further. Case 3 in DR3 being the most glaring example. It was obvious as hell Kiyo killed Tenko because only he would be in position to take advantage of his own creation. I was just hoping someone else killed Angie. Nope. Cowards.

Oh also I had this crazy conspiracy theory for a while that Kaede didn't actually die for some reason because while you saw blood after her execution, you never actually saw the body. I was wondering if anything would ever come of that, too... And nope.
