yeah, this game was devouring the "how did you last die" thread and i figured it deserved its own thread for discussion. also, we can discuss any game that gets pretty meta on you like undertale *not a spoiler cuz if you haven't played it yet, well, you're gonna have a good time

only monika.

Ah yes, the insatiable lust of corn and rice, clearly two of the most erotic foods.

Just finished it to the end. I really liked it, and I appreciated the ending as well. From what I've read on TV Tropes, there is some sort of a better ending, but I consider the one I got satisfying.

There are only two sure things in life: death and taxes and lists and poor arithmetic and overlong jokes and poor memory and probably a few more things.

PTW as fuck.
I don't know if we need a  link and info. Because if the viewer needs a link, they should probably be staying out of the SPOILER THREAD.

I don't know what I expected, but this certainly wasn't it. Still a very fun playthrough.

I also learned you can play with the files before you start anything and the story changes to some degree.

Can I copy-paste everything and end up with eight girls in the club? :P

So do you get a different ending if you keep a copy of Monika before deleting her, then adding her back when she restores the others? Because that would be kinda neat. And makes me feel bad about my cold-bloodedness, because I deleted her and emptied my trash can. >.>
I thought that would be an instant death. Apparently not.

Id test that but im working (kinda) and im pretty sure once youve seen the best ending it loads something into the registry so you cant play the game again, even after re-dling, youre treated to monikas song and the splash screen.

I tried adding her back almost immediately after I'd deleted her but it didn't seem to help, so I redeleted her. Thus, I can't comment on how it'd handle in the long run.

I also learned you can play with the files before you start anything and the story changes to some degree.
I'm probably too lazy to try this, but it sounds neat. And makes me wonder if there's any other ways you can screw with the story, like re-adding them after they've been dealt with or disposing of people yourself.

Also: Monika's character file can be opened as an image, which is neat. One other's (Sayori, I think) can be too, but the other two can't. Note that I only checked this after Sayori became prez, so that might have something to do with it. Or maybe completing their route lets you get an image of their major malfunction or something.

Anyway, it seems like I'm not done with this game yet. There are still more spoilers to avoid. Chiao

Monika and Natsumi can be opened as an image. Natsumi's seems to be nonsense, but Monika has something that looks eerily similar to a QR code.
Sayori's opens in text as nonsense, but there looks to be a codec entry (Xiph.Org libVorbis I 20120203 (Omnipresent)) in there so I'm guessing it's an audio file or something.
Yuri's opens in text as a bunch of nonsense, but I'm 99% sure it's encrypted by some sort of cipher.

Looks like I'd have to go through a lot more effort to actually get everything going on with this game. I just liked the song, that's a good ending to me. :D
