AI: The Somnium Files nirvanA Initiative releases Spring 2022 on PS4, Xbox One, Switch and PC
- Thread starter --R
- Start date
Switch version is mostly fine. I played it 100% in handheld mode. I unfortunately experienced one crash. It's mostly 30fps, although during some dream gameplay, fps does tank at intense areas.
Although one thing did annoy me is that when you press A to confirm something, it takes couple seconds.
Overall, it's decent and very playable since it's a Visual Novel game.
Yes! Great news, I absolutely loved the first game. I had no idea that a sequel was going to happen. The only thing I didn't like was how, as they said in the trailer, perverted the main character was. Hopefully this new character will be better in that regard.
Unfortunately the voice actor for him in English passed away this year so either will be recast or be posthumous (not sure when recorded) RIP: https://www.gamasutra.com/view/news..._actor_Brad_Venable_has_passed_away_at_43.php
FUCK. I had no idea he did his voice. He was so amazing. RIP
A welcome surprise. I gotta finish the original game as i was enjoying it despite some pervy crap it can't help itself having as well
as one of the paths straight up killing two characters in gruesome/graphic fashion (not actually visible but just the shock of it freaked the shit out of me.
I have a couple of ideas about the mystery of the half body, one would involve classic scifi tropes, and the other would mean the series have gone full Zero Escape lol either way I'm very excited!
Couldn't tell you. I haven't seen ps5 listed anywhere except on that Sony tweet
Guess I should get around to playing the first one, huh... Is it better than Zero Time Dilemma?
Please god this.
Better than ZTD, worse than 999 and VLR in my opinion. The writing quality in the first Somnium oscillates wildly
!!!
This is THE announcement of 2021! Original game is a slay.
A shot of gaming Moderna is just what the doctor ordered if you are displaying the following symptom:
- Great taste

Very pleasantly surprised! I had no idea the first game did well enough to warrant a sequel.
Mizuki being the protagonist this time around is such an amazing choice. She was by far the best character in the first game, and we also get to see her superhuman strength at play here! Hopefully this also means the sex jokes are dialed way back in favor of other types of humor (like, they have their place, but it really was just too much).

FUCK YEAH
Looking forward to it, although I'll probably get it on Steam since the Switch version of the last game was kind of a mess sometimes. Realy hope that Aiba figure is sold on it's own at some point (and it fucking should be, it straight up says it's a pop up parade figure).

kinda wish they also made a real A-Set figure so I can put it in a safe.
It's definitely time travel right? It's been awhile since I platinumed but isn't there time shenanigans happening in the original?
spoiler warning'd at request.

yes, very similar to Uchikoshi's past titles where Date remembered stuff from other timelines.
damn. that's cool but legit just learned about this one in recent times, and a physical copy is sadly pricey. would have dug a remake/etc but this is still exciting
Uchikoshi almost never does physical time travel though, with a person's entire body travelling through time.
Uh, remake? The first AI game released less than two years ago lol.
one of the first posts here asked if this was an enhanced version of the first game, that's what i meant to say
Switch version's got tons of aliasing.
Also runs into performance issues with some areas in the game.
Equal to 999 I'd say, both of which I consider much better than VLR, with ZTD of course being the worst.
This reminds me that I need to buy the first game at some point. Really liked 999 but for some reason fell off of Virtue's Last Reward and never played Zero Time's Dilemma.
Heard really good things about the first AI game, so hopefully I can get back into these types of games with that.

Thanks for all the comments! Still, I will probably just commit to the handheld version on the switch.
So many adventure games this year, that's so exciting~
I still need to finish the first one up, but it's next on my list. š
