#8 - Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony (VITA, my GotY for 2017)


PSYCH, Danganronpa V3s here too. I did not lie in my DR2 write-up. At one point, I actually did get so mad that I had to just forget about the game for a bit. Those who have played DRV3 could have probably guessed that it was because of the games final trial. But then over the next few days, I had some time to dwell on it, and I came around on it, hard. It is such a scathing commentary on video games in general, and I have a feeling its going to have a Metal Gear Solid 2 effect, where everyone looks back on it years down the road, and thinks man, they really called this shit years ago, huh? Not that the world is going to end up doing literally what happens in the game, obviously. Its just that I believe the overall sentiment is spot-on, and DRV3s ending has since become one of my favorites of all-time. You could probably fit the last hour and a half of it into about 45 minutes of a more succinct script, but hey. If theres one thing Danganronpa is good it, its making its dialogue last waaaaaaay too fucking long.

Anyway, for the overview, Danganronpa V3 has the arduous task of following up a sequel that carried the franchise up from really cool premise, but actually dogshit to still a really cool premise, but now it has an awesome story with amazing cases and decent writing, except the gameplay still cant seem to get out of its own way sometimes. V3 succeeded in delivering an even more gripping story with a much more cohesive cast and way better writing. And for the first time in the series, there isnt a single bad minigame! None of them are terribly fun on their own (RIP Logic Dive), but theyre all somehow not a total waste of time! Also, the Nonstop Debates are by far at their best in this game. The previous games just kinda had regular old text, and sometimes they float across the screen.. and thats about it. V3 has text animations. Riveting! But seriously, the style in V3 is very cool, and really gives the game a much needed make-over.
