Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony is an unforgettable experience and thanks to it's daring approach to sensitive social topics and also it's unbelievable surprises, we have the most controversial danganronpa game to date. Although the structure of the environments doesn't have the identity and regularity of the first two games and also overuse of flashbacks hurts the experience, but the almost flawless narrative and plenty of gameplay improvements, makes this entry a must play for fans of the genre
I would give this higher, but I know later down the line and looking back this is by no means a 9 or even 10 in terms of the game's scope. But if the writing kept its pacing from start to finish, it would've matched the astonishing soundtrack, blistering court cases, impeccable murders, and superb characters. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to find myself a tissue for the tears I shed to those lost in this Killing Game.
Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony is a good game. It manages to deliver a cast that lives up to previous alumni and stories that are on par with the best the series has produced. The Class Trials are just as fun, mostly, and the murders smart little enigmas. This should have been a home run, but, it isn't. The narrative choice made is going to be massively divisive in the fan base. It's a bold choice; it's an interesting choice; it's the wrong choice. Sometimes it can be about the destination and not the journey, especially if the driver suddenly swerves into a wall.
It goes without saying that Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony is for longtime fans. Everything fans love about the series is present in this installment but it's definitely not a good starting point for newcomers since the story does continue from previous entries.
Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony is a great visual novel with trial elements, and is fun to play through. Given its style, it will definitively not be for everyone, but if you give it a try, I'm sure you'll be in for a treat as this offers dozens of hours of gameplay – not to mention very long trials to take on each potential murderer!
