Started on the 3DS but had to switch to the Vita version because I ran into the legendary game-breaking bug. Unfortunately, I have to admit that I didn't like this game nearly as much as its predecessor. It started off really strong, I liked the initial situation, the characters, the voice acting. I was also very impressed by the puzzle rooms. Unfortunately, the story became a bit too wild and nonsensical for me towards the end. In 999, I had the feeling that I could enjoy the story because it didn't get too stupid. There was a "supernatural" element there too, but I could accept that more than here. Unfortunately, this game got very, very stupid in the last third :D That's a shame, I had high expectations for the game because I liked the predecessor so much.

That's unfortunate, considering things only get more bizarre in ZTD. Respect for finishing the game though despite the save file corruption, since that sounds really demotivating.

@Lemonstrade Yeah, thank you :) I lost about 30 hours of progress, so I was quite far into the game already which makes it even more frustrating. I really tried to like the game, but at some point I just couldn't suspend my disbelief any longer regarding the narrative. I actually watched a playthrough of ZTD on YouTube and, surprisingly, liked it quite well. I felt like Uchikoshi just kinda...gave up on telling a coherent story and went completely wild. I can respect that :D
