Shuffle Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 A definite want from me since the 1st collection(Rondo of a Witch and a Mystery) was so awesome. So this should include the last 4 episodes of Umineko which is the Answer arc while the previous one was the Questions arc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celestial Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Just started the 1st game on Saturday. I'm impressed by the depth of the story although I've just played this for around 3 hours. I didn't watch the anime version of this series, so the story is still intriguing Maybe I will pick up this sequel with the preorder bonus given Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaHentai Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Will this be a stand-alone release, or would I need the first one in my possession as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuffle Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Will this be a stand-alone release, or would I need the first one in my possession as well? In my opinion, it's not a standalone. While each episode continues the different views on what happened on Rokkenjima during those couple of days they stayed there just like how the 1st game did, but will answer some clues that were left unsolved. Plus it's good to understand the characters. So in a way, it's kind of like how Higurashi no Naku Noro ni Kai was to the 1st Higurashi anime series except there is no anime of the Chiru Umineko episodes. The Umineko anime covers the 4 episodes available in the PS3 collection which is also being braked down to 2 PSP games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaHentai Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Oh, I realize the second will be related to the story of the first, but I'm talking tech specs here; is this new game an add-on for the first (in the manner of DLC for retail games), or a seperate release?

Well I guess the best way to describe it is that it's seperate. There were 8 total episodes released on PC(the 8th episode actually has a decision to make and I believe a couple of other things in it). The 1st collection on PS3 was the 1st half of the series, while this is the 2nd half. So if you want, you can treat it as an actual sequel and not as like an add-on.

MegaHentai Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Got it. Might have to snag this when it drops if it's the same basic deal as the first (i.e. no input required). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I did mention episode 8 does have a decision to make in the game which leads to 2 different endings. Plus I think it had some like quizzes in it or something like that but I don't quite remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
