Interesting to see a review of an older game in the series. I’d always found it interesting from its steampunk appearance. My only real exposure was the recent PS4 game, which very depressingly checked off some tired anime tropes:
One guy in a house of ladies
Women are all incapable without their big strong male leader
Bizarre plot occurrences like warping to another dimension, with little acknowledgement from the cast
Requisite hot tub misunderstandings scene
There’s some other bits that didn’t make sense to me, but basically it didn’t feel like such a fleshed out world either, even if the characters are meant to be fun.
I'm glad that you enjoyed this game! Some of your reactions to the characters' fates took me back to when I played the series on Vita haha. It was also nice to see you mention the extra stuff like Distrust.
I will warn you now, if you are playing the trilogy through on the Switch's Decadence Collection... V3 is poorly optimized during certain class trial sections and I actually struggled to complete some of the mini games because of how laggy it was (when it ran perfectly on the Vita). It's possible they patched it since I played it after the first or second patch, but keep it in mind.
It is still doable, but it's a bit of a shame because I love this series. I hope you enjoy Goodbye Despair and V3 provided you complete them as well!
