Getting all the achievements in Nier Replicant would be be pain. Even doing all the sidequests would be painful.

Speaking of, the different playstyles were pretty fun. Everyone had cool, unique styles that could make playing them fun... except Morgana. poor morgana.

turning into a van is so bad

Yeah, Nier's Platinum sounds like pain. I didn't necessarily mind the NG+ for the other endings in the original because it only took a few hours to do.

I've finished up through Chapter 5 of Famicom Detectives Club (I guess I should call it The Missing Heir since there's two games). Just a couple of theories so far: The guy who "found" the MC has to be involved in all this somehow. He might be this Kazuto Ayashiro guy, but he's probably at least the person the MC was supposed to meet at that cliff. The game has made a point of mentioning that no one ever goes there, so the fact that he just so happened to pass by and find the MC seems too coincidental.

It's also strange that the game made a point of mentioning that the MC is borrowing a shirt from the guy who found him because the shirt he was wearing at the time of his accident got "dirty." There has to be some sort of incriminating evidence on or in that shirt, but I guess we'll see!

Yeah I've thought he was the culprit the entire time, though it does seem perhaps too obvious.

Finished Famicom Detectives Club Chapter 6. Wow, that was the most obscure trigger yet toward the end there!

Okay, so this Kanda guy is almost certainly Kazuto since he's set to take over the Ayashiro Corporation, and we found out Kazuto left home to become a lawyer. Now the question is whether Kanda and Amachi are the same person, and I'm guessing yes since we haven't actually seen what Kanda looks like yet.

I thought about trying to start Trails to Azure, but I wouldn't be able to carry over any clear data from Zero since I played that on my old laptop. I looked up what carries over, and it's actually quite a bit.

-Character levels from Zero
-Fishing rank
-Inspector rank
-Combination Crafts
-Character affections
-Specific dialogues that change depending on what you've done in Zero

Honestly it's the last one that gets me more than anything, although having the combo Crafts would be nice, too. I guess I'd only have to wait a few more days to get home and get the save files from my old laptop, but still!

Further thoughts: I'm guessing that this talisman the MC was muttering about is the "proof of succession" they've been talking about, and Amachi/Kanda attacked him to steal it.

Watching the LttP Randomizer tournament going on now has gotten me back into that thing. I haven't done this regularly in at least a year. Slowly working my way back towards being able to do sub-2 hour seeds.

I started up 13 Sentinels a few days ago. Done a few parts of everyone's route that I have (still no Takamiya, Gouto or Shinonome) except Hijiyama who's been locked and Kisaragi who I just got. Combat is neat, doesn't seem very difficult thus far but it's very satisfying to wipe whole clouds of enemies with a single missile attack so I like it.

Probably too early to theorize on stuff with any accuracy because man there has been a lot but I'm nonetheless currently wondering how many of the characters are actually robots (nothing confirmed but between the last Amiguchi segment I did and Juro's nightmare it seems possible).

Famicom Detectives Club Chapter 8 complete!

Thankfully, I figured out the tobacco was poisoned a while ago, so I was ready when the game randomly asked me to input an answer!

But I was not ready for them to find Akira's body in that grave. That caught me off guard.

I'm on the last chapter of Famicom Detectives Club now. I saw a lot of that exposition coming, but it was still pretty cool. I'm still trying to figure out if Kazuto and Kanda are the same person, and which one Amachi is if they aren't. I'm still thinking he's Kanda, but I'm not sure why he would've fished the MC out of the sea after Akira knocked him in there. I guess we'll find out soon!

Famicom Detective Club: The Missing Heir complete! Once again, even though I saw the Kanda reveal coming, I thought they executed it really well. It was fittingly creepy. Whoever did the updated art and animations really did a great job here.

If you're a mystery VN fan, it's probably worth a look. It's fairly straightforward though, so don't expect any gimmicks or supernatural elements! Expect to get frustrated with figuring out how to trigger scenes though!

I'll probably save the sequel until after I finish Trails to Azure since we are flying back home tomorrow.

Yeah the one thing that really sucked was having to just mash through every option repeatedly looking for a new trigger whenever you get stuck

Yeah the Kanda reveal was definitely anticipated (also would have been a pretty big name voice actor for a minor role!). Funny thing that happened to me with the heir identity: since there was no default name for the MC I just went with the random Japanese name "Hitoshi Yamamoto" and therefore got an accidental red herring "confirmation" of the theory that you were the heir from the fact that the orphanage lady was also named Yamamoto...! (At least for the brief period of time before I noticed her name was being voiced; in retrospect it would have been weird for that to have actually been a thing and for her to randomly have the western name other people picked!)

aaaaaaaaaaa so much stuff has happened in 13 Sentinels

There's some stuff that I can't entirely keep straight/would want to rewatch like the first Gouto segment, and also some stuff that I'm just not even going to try to speculate about yet, like literally anything involving (having recently done Shinonome's prologue) Sekigahara

Most recently I just got back to Juro for the first time in a while and okay I figured -something- was up with Shiba but I did not guess that at all. Would need to rewatch some of Juro's older events but could Amiguchi see him?

Speaking of Amiguchi, (spoiler based on stuff from Gouto's first segment) is he a clone/robot of Ida with some of the original's memories transplanted but sealed? Iori could similarly be a clone of Morimura and that might explain the dreams the two of them (and Juro) have. Is Juro also a clone? That hadn't actually occurred to me until just now but if the dreams are memories there would need to have been an adult Izumi at some point too.

also darn it Hijiyama stop locking

Nope! There's a good amount of foreshadowing.

There's one scene in particular that you get to witness from both Juro's and Amiguchi's perspectives. I actually saw both of those scenes before that "reveal," so it really confused me!

I actually just saw the Amiguchi version of that! Definitely kind of funny to see Juro randomly crouching by the TV talking to no one. All the talk of movies suddenly takes on a much different meaning too.

Did one more segment of Juro's route too. I guess we have parallel worlds in play? There was some mention in an earlier event about Operation Aegis being used to stop the world from looping so I guess if parallel worlds are previous "loops" or whatever that would make sense - would also make stuff like Juro's nightmare more sensible (especially since past him seems to be a villain). Still a lot of unanswered questions but that's expected.

This game, man.

I've been trying to switch in between them as I go. Recently I hit a lock on the third area (looks like I need to finish Juro's route) and have just been doing story parts.

Been playing it a lot and I'm near the end of several routes (though not done with any) - some answers are starting to make themselves known. Looks like my guess about "clones" was sort of right, though it went a lot farther than I'd guessed!
