You deserve a reward for obeying. When you awake, all three of you will be able to regret the decision they made.

the decision game begins!

went with C team first

assorted thoughts:

- dearie me this is brutal, i hope the bleakness here is at least somewhat earned and not just totally gratuitous. I don't want a Saw to Saw 2 transition here.
- he hasn't even really done anything yet and i can already tell eric is going to be terrible
- Sigma, Phi, Akane and Jumpei are all in this game, where reportedly only three can survive. time paradoxes aside (*ahem*), we know that all four of them do. this suggests several things, the most obvious being that this game is going to be CONFUSING.

- all of these guys (besides Q) seem to know each other pretty well. this will be intriguing.
- i've been playing this game for almost half an hour and the sum total of the "gameplay" has been guessing a coin flip. is this likely to change?
- there are some fascinating character dynamics here, even early on. Akane and Junpei post-999, Sigma and young Junpei from an NPC perspective, Sigma presumably in messiah mode - lots to dive into here
- the willing of Zero Escape to throw their protagonists under the bus morally is pretty fascinating. In 999, Junpei is pretty much a stock likeable hero, but by VLR he's become a lecherous old grump and here he's actively advocating murder by betrayal. I can't work out if it's good writing, but it's certainly brave.

voted to go with the plan and execute team D. seems that I need to do this part for each team before moving forward, which means I might be two hours into the game before I hit a puzzle room. ...there are puzzle rooms in this game, right? maybe not!
