The best VR anime adventure

I already LOVED both Tokyo Chronos and ALTDEUS, and I LOVE Dyschronia even more. This episode sets a really cool mystery, introduces us to a very interesting sci-fi setting (HUGE Psycho Pass vibes) and finally allowing you to be part of this anime world. So this time it's not just a cool story. It's a full on narrative adventure! Some puzzles, minigames, exploration, a stealth section and the coolest part... A trial! It's not like Ace Attorney, but still, an awesome part of an already awesome episode. If Episodes 2 and 3 maintain this quality, this could be one of the very best narrative adventures of VR

Super great story, but not for everyone

This is a great interactive visual novel, but objectively speaking it is NOT for everyone, especially those who prefer just gunning down everything that moves. This is a very slow-paced game, like watching a TV drama/anime series. But it is exactly through this sort of slow-pace, laid-back gameplay that you really can start to feel for and connect with the characters. The characters are also proportioned right for a Japanese anime styled game and should cater well to western audiences even if you are not a weeb. Granted, I was a little disappointed at first that it is no longer about giant mechas like its predecessor, but heck, the world is very beautiful (although a little barren, but maybe that is the point) and characters are more believable. The music are also masterfully done and fits the scenes well (it gives me the vibe of an old PSP semi-visual novel game called Fate/Extra). One criticism I do have for the game is that it loads way too often between event/free roam transitions that would have been seamless on many other games. Although the loading time isn't long, seeing the loading circle frequently really breaks immersion. I hope this can be improved if their next game is still a VR visual novel. Oh and we desperately need to be able to interact with more of her parts when petting Lily. Even VRChat avatars have more touch-able parts! Don't lose to an SNS will ya (jk)! --- VRアドベンチャーとして大変素晴らしいと思う。ADVらしくかなりのスローペースでの展開だが、だからこそキャラ一人一人を知る時間たっぷりで、それぞれの魅力をじっくり味わえるのではないかと思う。まあ、ドラマやアニメが好きな方だったらそこに文句を言う輩はまず居ないでしょう。 最初は巨大ロボから脱却したことについてややがっかりではあったが、今作の世界自体が綺麗で(やや虚無さを感じるが、まぁそこも世界観に合うでしょう)幻想的で、そして登場キャラも前作よりも電波さが減ってもっと現実味を感じられる。音楽も大変素晴らしく、イベントシーンとぴったりしていると思う(なんだかPSP時代のフェ〇ト/エ〇ストラを思い出す)。 ただし、ローディングタイムと画面についてはやや不満です。イベントや会話発生後→自由移動の遷移上、ちょこちょことローディング画面の暗転を挟むことが多い。他のゲームだとこういうのは基本シムレースになっていることが多いため、次回作(根幹はもう変えられないと思うので、EP3での改善を求めない)で改善して欲しいところだ。マップの遷移時が仕方がないにせよ、同じマップでもローディング画面が頻繁に出るとかなり没入感を損ねてしまうと思う。 あとリリィの撫でられるところをもっと増やして、というか増やせ!VRChatアバターのほうが触れるパーツがあるんだぞ!負けるな!

Fun narrative

This experience was well worth my time and I I enjoyed it. It does have its share of annoyances, namely amount of time you don't have control.. you have to click through every line of dialogue while having your character frozen (something I find more annoying in VR) . But overall it is a fun and immersive experience that is easily accessible to a wide variety of players. You don't have to worry about not being able to solve the mystery, you are pretty much guided all the way through.. Some people might not like that but I feel it's important for the VR space , which is a relatively new medium, to give everyone a satisfying experience. And the music is awesome

A New Era of VR Games!!

I’ve spent 1000+ hours to play various games, but I'm a convinced user of this VR game. It is said that the previous MyDearest games were lacked the unique experience of a VR game although their stories were excellent. This game, on the other hand, gives me such beautiful worlds that Quest2 alone could not achieve (graphics look like PC-VR). In addition, the experience of the VR mystery game that has never existed before is now possible. The UI/UX is excellent and does not cause much stress despite the complexity of the controls. If this game becomes the standard for VR games, it will certainly raise the bar for other developers. Without question, I would give it the highest rating and would encourage you to play it. The quality is so good that I think the price is too low. 私はVRを1,000時間以上プレイするようなヘビーユーザーですが、既に傑作だと確信しています。MyDearestはこれ以前のゲームをプレイしていますが、ストーリーは優れているものの、VRゲームならではの体験に乏しいという点で惜しかったと評価されていました。 一方、今作では、Quest2単体では実現できなかった美麗なワールドが表現されています(まるでPC-VRのようなグラフィック)。加えて、今までなかった、推理ゲームという体験が成立しています。特に、複雑な操作になるにも関わらず、UIUXが優れておりストレスをあまり感じさせません。 これがVRゲームの標準になると、他のデベロッパーのハードルが上がるのは間違いないでしょう。文句なく、最高評価を与えたいと思いますし、値段が安すぎると思うくらいクオリティなので、是非プレイしてほしいです。

Awful and boring

I really wanted to like this game and gave it more than a fair chance, but it is one of the worst games I have purchased. Good graphics is the only positive thing I can say. Lets start with a really long intro that you can't skip. After that, you spend 5 minutes talking or listening then you might have some easy interaction to perform, you might transition to a different area then the cycle repeats. Way too much passive time spent reading the conversations and barely any time to solve puzzles if there are any. I never leave ratings, but this one was infuriating. I have no clue how it has 4.9 stars....serious inflating going on. I would give it 0 stars if possible.
