I might go for Steins;Gate 0 or My Darling's Embrace, already have the former on PS4 but not a bad price for the convenience.
Steins;Gate Elite and AI: The Somnium Files are two of the finest visual novels available on the Switch. Don't skip.
Steins Gate forever the GOAT
Already got Steins;Gate and 0 for Vita, but truly enjoyable experiences. Was more than happy to support them again through the Switch.
Where should one start with Steins Gate?
@NESlover85
I think Steins gate Elite is a improved version of the first game, but I haven't played it so maybe someone else can confirm that.
But if it is then that's the one👍
@NESlover85 steins gate elite, my darling embrace, zero.
You can skip my darling's embrace if you want. There are only funny stories about dating
AI Somnium it is, then
Well I already own YU-NO, Steins;Gate Elite and Re:Zero. I want AI: The Somnium Files and Robotics;Notes but only in physical form (even if it costs me nearly $100 like AI will). Now Steins;Gate: My Darling's Embrace doesn't have a physical version so I'll go ahead and buy that and I'll hold out for Steins;Gate 0 Elite in hopes that a physical version will release for it.
@NESlover85
Steins;Gate Elite
Steins;Gate 0
Steins;Gate: My Darling's Embrace
@NESlover85 From what I've read Stein's;Gate Elite is an updated version of the first Stein's;Gate that is prettier but it cut out a few small details of the original.
Stein's;Gate 0 story is set after the various endings of Stein's;Gate but before the "true ending".
So go with Elite or the original first and if you're planning to play 0 play it before you reach the "true ending".
How come deals such as these are still region specific in 2022?
@dBackLash I would not recommend interrupting the flow of Steins;Gate to play Steins;Gate 0.
The original game is so wonderful, and it’s story is so well done. It would be awkward to stop before the end to play an entire other game. Especially since I don’t think 0 is half as good as the original game.
@Offolsense yes elite is an enhanced version of the first game.
Shiren the Warrior doesn't get enough love. Shiren was doing roguelike before it was cool!
I love pixel junk monsters 2 but stopped playing because of super long times. Does anyone know if they fixed that?
@Offolsense @BananaMetallurgica @JustMonika @dBackLash
Thank you all!
Already own AI: The Somnium Files and Steins;Gate Elite
