“10/10 game, my fav out of all danganronpa games. the “controversial” ending was great and thought provoking, people that complain about it are just braindead.”
“This game is really good. Has a 10/10 masterpiece 1st trial. Also has, in my opinion, a really good ending. Don't let people tell you the game or the ending are bad and play it yourself (i hate fandoms). 9/10”
“I love kaede akamatsu.”

“--TL;DR-- V3's cases are mostly boring, and its ending is more clumsy than clever. New mechanics are a mixed bag, but the most important ones are the least fun. A lot of the criticism of the ending revolves around it…”

“Danganronpa V3 somehow takes the insanity of the first two games and pushes it even further. The class trials are easily some of the best in the series, and a few chapters genuinely had me staring at the screen…”
“Incredible experience. played with a friend, did all the voice acting with them, got drunk and cried. Music is a banger all the way through.”

“[h1]Another one[/h1] If you enjoyed the other Danganronpas this is an easy recommend. The presentation is easily the best in the series along with the characters and the cases being very well done. This is more of the…”

“piece of ♥♥♥♥ ending + ♥♥♥♥ ton of Input lag, dropped Inputs, and stuck keys despite being a game from 2017”
“the ending is not as clever as it thinks it is, sad to see such a poorly executed end to the series”

“good game but it has giant input lag and keeps crashing, i wasnt really having fun :(”
“Good game hidden behind a disastrous port. Literally unplayable. I got softlocked at the first chapter because the rhythm input mapping is so god awful.”
“While I experienced constant minor visual glitches (I thought they were foreshadowing something. They were not), and I did find that the midpoint of the final trial was *definitely* the weakest point of the entire game,…”

“Best game in the series EASILY. just for the 10/10 story it's an easy recommend, anyone who doesn't like the ending literally does not hold the capability to read which is unfortunately extremely common when it comes to anime fans.”
— a player, Steam review · 41 hrs played“I feel very mixed about this game. On one hand, it was a nice return to formula after Despair Girls and had amazing characters, some even better than 2's, but the mediocre ending and kinda subpar mystery and plot twists sour the experience for me. Don't get me wrong, it's a good…”
