   Since I played the first game, I've been eagerly awaiting for the localization of Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair.
   I knew that fans whoSince I played the first game, I've been eagerly awaiting for the localization of Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair.
   I knew that fans who already played the japanese version were stating that this sequel was even better than the first episode - and after playing it myself I can easily understand why.
   
   As usual with Spike Chunsoft games, Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair is essentially a visual novel.
   Expect lots of reading, but despite a not exactly "top class" translation the dialogues and writing is captivating and definitely interesting.
   The pacing of the story is great, gradually ramping up until a finale that left me with my jaw open. The last part of the game is really something that must be experienced. The first game is known for its plot-twists, but the sequel blows that game out of the water. You will not expect what's going to happen, and this is good.
   
   Having played the first game, Trigger Happy Havoc, is requirement if you want to fully understand and appreciate the whole storyline. The developers are expecting the players to be up to speed concerning the plot of the series, so do yourself a favor and get both games if you can.… Expand

   Like the first game with improved trials, an amusing and sometimes thought-provoking cast with nice themes and exciting mysteries.

While the cast isn't as great as the first one, the individual cases are superior to the first one in terms of mystery, intrigue, and creativity. Overall it's a wonderful sequel to one of the best visual novel style games I've ever played.
   The characters in this game are probably the weakest link but they're not even that bad. The issue was there were too many annoying characters, whether it be their voice and how they sounded, to the absolutely dumb decisions they made throughout the story. There were a few really well done characters but there weren't as many as the original game. However, one of the bad guys in this game, while a bit confusing at times, is probably one of the best characters I've seen in a long time cause you can never tell what they're thinking and that's great for a mystery game like this.
   The individual stories in this game were wonderful and filled you with a sense sadness to see how things shaped out. People weren't just killing to kill like they did a few times in the past game. Alot of the cases involved in this game play out in a special way that will really make you think. I love some of the mysteries that the game presented and I feel like it's about time that some of the REALLY vague things they told you in the first game were finally explained in decent detail. While things are still kinda glossed over for the overall story in the game, this game answered alot of questions left by the first game.
   In the end, this is a wonderful sequel to a wonderful game that I'm truly grateful they localized for a western release. I would say both games have their strong points but I can't rate one above another. Both are excellent and really get you involved in the mysteries they set forth. Hopefully they make another game in the series as the absolute charm that this game gives off is something that I haven't seen in gaming in a long time.… Expand

   I gotta say, Danganronpa 2 is my favorite. It builds on the plot of the first game in a fantastic way, and is just really fun to play overall.
   
   My biggest problem with Danganronpa 1 was the plot twist at the end, and much to my surprise, there's a scene in this game where Kazuichi goes on a rant and ended up perfectly summarizing my complaints about the first one. Huge props to the writers for that one.
   
   My only problem with the game is how caricatured everyone is. This isn't the writers' fault; it's something you gotta do when you introduce a dozen characters at once.… Expand
