You know what would make this game more interesting? If Shido doesn't have a Palace because he desire to make Japan great is genuinely pure, and his heart does not perceive the twisted acts that he committed as crimes. Kind of like Zamasu from Dragon Ball.

>>385710303

Thats how the world works though. To reach the top you have to step over people and get rid off them in order to tie up loose ends. Regarding the getting rid part, this can be done without killing such as perhaps framing the target with a scandal. Shido perhaps was a bit paranoid with the killing part, but his vision of uniting Japan into a stronger country was genuine.

hmmmm but didn't he try to rape a girl at the beginning? and didnt he arrest you (akira) just for stepping in and throwing you into a new school as a result, where everyone uses to hate him? these are citizens he's supposed to protect but he shat over them in the worst way possible. I guess he makes a good trump analogy since he was also a pervert and your greentext seems to suggest you're a trump cockguzzler.

hmm this makes me want to kinda buy the game rather than watch other play it though. is it worth it lads? I heard the villains after kamoshida are less interesting and the game is loooooong

You people are probably still underage without real jobs. Once you get out in the real world you'll understand what I mean. Its very easy to fall into a false sense of security by sitting in front of a computer all day on a video game forum.

People will backstab you left right and centre if you are not careful, especially if you are successful at what you do.

To be honest, considering that girl actually falsified her testimony and ratted out MC at the start of the game, fuck that bitch.

>>385710724
>but his vision of uniting Japan into a stronger country was genuine.

Judging by the fact that his palace was a luxury ship cruising through a sunken Japan filled with only Yes-Men, I doubt that's the case. He just wanted his position assured above the masses.

I repeat, in what god forsaken shithole do you live where that is the case?

Even kings have responsibilities. They don't sit on their ass all day doing nothing. If they fuck up there will be an uprising whether by the people or the elites that supported him, as history has showed us time and again.

Sure, a dictatorial personality like Shido's would eventually lead to his downfall, but his authoritative nature would have implemented large and necessary changes to Japan's stagnant economy that it desperately needs.

Dude his own subconscious viewed the entirety of Japan as doomed, all he did was save business connections and whores with his cruise ship. He had no practical governmental plan to save Japan at all.

Yes I am a failure at life that is why I am drawn to charismatic authoritarian figures because 1) either they'll kill me for being useless, or 2) force me into a job which I can't get on my own anyway.

Going to need a little tough love if they step out of line. Would you want to be the captain of the ship that is Japan and not get nookie for the entire voyage?
Depends on if you enjoy VN stuff and RPG mix. If you're interested sure. main issue with villains is that nothing feels as personal as Kamoshida's presence during his arc, even Shido despite him fucking ruining your life. Madarame's pretty alright though, but it benefits from Yusuke's confidant also
>>385711057

>desu the North Koreans are pretty well off from their perspective
No, they just pretend to be happy because they get killed if they don't.
They are well aware that just over the border they have South Korea which is essentially paradise by comparison but very few of them have the balls to risk the well being of their family by making a run for it.
>Isn't that what matters?
No, it isn't. Go overdose on drugs if you think imagination trumps reality.

Shido is supposed to be a representation of the kind of sleazy crooked populist politicians who always succeed in Japanese politics despite public knowledge of their crimes because of the general apathy and complacency in Japanese society.

Shinzo Abe is an obvious example. He's beloved, even by Westerners, but ultimately he's done nothing to solve Japan's serious economic and demographic problems.

Thats only because interest rates are so fucking low. Raise the interest rates and you'll get your growth back. The overvalued real estate sector should fucking crash already.

I started the game and reach the first hour of it and I can't even play it anymore, what the hell ? The protagonist is treated like a low life for SAVING a woman that was sexually assaulted, the man who assaulted her sue him and press charges. As a result of his intervention, and the man's injuries, the incident went down on his permanent record, and the protagonist was subsequently expelled. At the court hearing, he was told to transfer schools, and move away, a condition his parents agreed to, thus leaving him in the care of a tutor.

The situation is already disturbing, but I'm feeling sick reading things like "how stupid he was to get in the way of adults", 'that he deserved to be in this situation and what a disappointment he is for others and that's the reason why his parents abandoned him" that "if he's doing anything else, he'll be thrown out of his tutor house and go to jail"etc.... like what the developers were thinking when they wrote those things?

We already have everywhere in the world, people that are doing nothing because they're afraid of what could happen to them, I can understand that, the fear is stronger sometimes, but it's morally wrong, do something, don't stand by, don't look away, do something and don't give a fuck about the consequences! I'm so pissed right now, fuck those developers, fuck this game, I'm not even selling it, I just put it straight in the bin, if he treats women like that, I can't even think of how it'll treat LGBTQ characters later on and I'm a fucking straight white male, fuck this game.

If anything, the dude should have been treated as a hero, the local news should have talked about it and everyone should have thanked him to be this brave, but no
It's so WRONG JAPAN, especially from a country like yours when sexually assaulting women in the metro is something common and the audience you're reaching...
