I finished Steins;Gate 0 VN and I have some thoughts

So, I watched Steins;Gate 0 a few weeks after finishing the original anime and I didn’t like it. The story felt disjointed, many plot points seemed rushed or pointless and I had issues understanding how we got in places we ended up in. It has been a couple of years now, so it seemed fair to give it another chance hoping that the visual novel is better.

Overall, my feelings are complicated because I still have many complaints about the story, characters and endings. But when SG 0 got good, it got really good. I strongly believe the reason behind my problems is the structure of this game. I’ve seen somebody describe it as a Frankenstein’s monster and, yeah, that’s an accurate description.

I'm going to spoil a lot, so you have been warned.

So, SG 0 structure is a bit odd and its graph (taken from the wiki) looks like this

Here is the order in which I’ve played the game:

Gehenna’s Stigma -> Twin Automata -> Recursive Mother Goose -> Promised Rinascimento -> Vega and Altair -> Milky-way Crossing

I'm going to sprinkle some of my favourite CGs in this post for your enjoyment.

Positive thoughts

I loved Daru in this game. I recalled his relationship with Suzuha being weird and uncomfortable to watch, but it was fairly sweet here. Yeah, there have been some cringy moments, but that was the minority. Also, even outside of that, he was great. His relationship with Yuki? Really sweet. Conspiring with Maho? Great. That moment when he punches Okabe in the face? One of my favourites in the whole game!

Maho no longer felt like a Kurisu replacement. They allowed her different personality to shine and made the best of it. The majority of her screen time was a pure joy to experience. And what was the best part of all of that? Her friendship with Moeka in Twin Automata. It was just *chef's kiss* so good! So good in fact that I consider not having this friendship blossom in other endings as a huge disadvantage.

The music was, dare I say it, better than in the original? Yeah, Gate of Steiner and Remember Me are iconic, but Messenger, A Song Played by the Stars and Re-awake are just so good. Also, I enjoyed ambience music a bit more.

In my mind, the main theme of the original Steins;Gate is loneliness. With Steins;Gate 0 introducing AI to the story, I find it fitting that the focus of the story was on the subject of identity and personal worth. A theme that was beautifully shown in Twin Automata (I think you might already know which ending is my favourite).

I can't judge how realistic Okabe's anxiety attacks were, but they felt real to me. Of course, his VA is phenomenal, but the script also deserves a praise here. It was painful to see him struggle with his trauma and easily triggered flashbacks.

While on the topic, the voice acting was great. Granted, with a cast like this that shouldn't be a surprise, but it's still worth to mention it.

I'm not going to elaborate on this point. Just this moment:

Mayuri is always a beacon of positivist and an absolute joy to watch. We all need a Mayushii in our lives.

The climax of Twin Automata, Gehenna's Stigma and Promised Rinascimento are all great. That moment when Leskinen traps Okabe in GS and Okabe realises, he can't die for the next ~15 years? Chilling.

"Holy cow! So I said we should come soon" - name a more iconic line in VN. I will wait, you won't find any.

Negative thoughts

Kagari. I don't like her, I don't need her, she should go away. She is boring at best and annoying at worst. Her story is silly in Promised Rinascimento and in Vega and Altair it's just bad. How?

She has a plastic surgery to look like Yuki. Ok, how did she manage to make herself to look so accurate to the original, that she fooled Suzuha? Alright, they know about the current whereabouts of the original, so that's how they manage to "copy" her. But in that case, I want to know more about this subplot.

We know that this Kagari and Yuki share a room in the future. That's real awkward, not gonna lie.

How does she survive Vega and Altair since she died before Okabe time leapt? Is it because Suzuha and Mayuri made a successful jump to the past? But if that's so, shouldn't the worldline change and therefore Okabe notice it? Actually, why doesn't he notice when the worldline changes due to Suzuha and Mayuri making a decision? I don't think this type of shifting was properly introduced before.

If we have this Kagari in the future, what happens with the child Kagari? If Mayuri goes back to 2025 and still chooses to adopt her, wouldn't that cause massive issues? Yes, that shouldn't happen because shift will occur before, but it does bother me a lot.

Similarly, Fubuki and Kaede can go away. They contributed close to nothing and I don't need them here.

I was hoping for more development for Luka and Faris. On the other hand, I think that Kurisu card should be used a bit less. Let us truly feel we miss her.

In the original, everything happens because of our protagonists. They make the PhoneWave, they choose to experiment and then they need to suffer consequences. Here they (especially Okabe) are mostly passive and just allow stuff to happen. This causes problems because worldline changes many times in 0 and we don't really know how and why it happens. Sure, it is connected to Amadeus (usually), but I'm lacking an explanation. It just kinda happens. I disliked not knowing the reason behind each change. Sure, in the original the reason isn’t always perfect (like how they change Luka’s sex), but at least I know the source. Again, not an issue in itself, but I regret we didn’t get more answers. 

The first chapters were really difficult to get through. With no goal in mind, Okabe no longer being charismatic enough to carry the story and not really having a plot, it’s difficult to call this experience enjoyable.

Pacing was all over the place. Steins;Gate 0 consists of 14 chapters (including Prologue and True End). The minimum number of chapters you need to play to reach an ending is 5 (Gehenna’s Stigma and Twin Automata) and the longest single route takes 7 (Milky-way Crossing). Because of that, I often felt like the story either didn’t have or had too many climaxes. Apart from that, it was disappointing to find out that some of my favourite moments aren’t technically canon. Well, to be fair, you could even argue that in the grand scheme of things, nothing that happens in beta was real because the world shifts to Steins Gate, but you know what I mean.

I didn’t like the push for romance for Okabe. First of all, because it felt disrespectful towards him. Here we have a broken, depressed man who needs a lot of therapy. Playing romantic tension for laughs, while we are dealing with a man who killed a person he loved, seems very icky for me. And implying that Maho might develop feelings for him just felt so unhealthy, because she would literally become a replacement. Kinda like in Harry Potter where one of the Weasley twins dies and then his girlfriend marries the surviving brother - that’s just messed up. Look, I love both of them, but they need therapy, not romance.

Minor nitpick, so, they updated character sprites for 0, but, of some reason, in Summer Mayuri and Faris have their old sprites. Similarly, Kurisu has her old sprite in Okabe's memories and while we quickly jump to alpha, while she has new new sprite as Amadeus and in Maho's memories. Why? Who did this? Also, nobody except for Kagari and Suzuha get a sprite in the future. They robbed us! Also, also, I find it kinda funny that Okabe notices himself having partially grey hair, but he doesn't have them on CGs.

True Ending is a joke. It's short and anticlimactic. Yes, it would feel cheap if they just gave us the original VN ending to play, but I would prefer if they added it.

Conclusion

So, I did write more negative points, but I can't say I had a bad time. I enjoyed playing the game... for the most part! Look, I'm not going to pretend that the original SG had no issues. It had, but I think 0 lows were too low for me. But, hey! At least I would say it had different problems, so... progress?

While I do appreciate that the structure of 0 allowed us to experience more perspectives and stories (also, I enjoyed that the path to Steins;Gate requires many futures), I ultimately think it was also its biggest flaw. I might one day consider what kind of rewrites I would implement.

As a side note, I think I might write a separate post on the depiction of AI in SG 0 because it is something I was working on during my bachelor's and master's thesis, therefore I have thoughts.

Blog Updates and FAQ 6/1/2024

Okay so I'm making this here to not interrupt the flow of discord and to keep myself to something because I tend to do that better when its written down- it will pinned too

these are mostly to answer faq, updates to the blog, and maybe a lil fun section- using icons to help with tone but im trying for neutral positive

Min are you okay?

I do appreciate those who reached out and asked. (Ily you all for real), To answer I'm okay. I just been having weird brain things but nothing really bad pinky promise.

2) Why did you drop (x)

So I can't answer every person I dropped (Fly high all of them). But I was like feeling a bit overwhelmed, this isn't to say i didn't enjoy any connections i had more like "hey this a bit challenging" so I dropped some.

3) Will they return?

Wellllll some might some might not. But I think two-three right now is my max. When Lysander will return exactly time will tell. I'm sorry for a lack of clear answer.

Tdlr for this section, School and State Testing sucks, lifes a bit overwhelming and I kinda want to steer my focus on that. It was a really hard decision but I kinda had to do it you know

Section 2- Changes Theme+ Blog Wise

Stats Page- I guess this is more like the extended lore page for my muses. Like quirks , likes, dislikes, height, things like that

Connections Page- I'm unorganized and forgettful 90% of the time. I really need to establish this one to keep thing straight

Thread tracker- Okay this one is a big one. Like Tumblr been kicking my ass and eating my notifs so hopefully this will help a lot

-mins face setting this stuff up as an ancient fumo overlord

Section 3- Changes Rp and Socially

Sending Starters- I'll probably be dming closed starters after I post. This doesnt mean I want you to do them right away rather its for my organizational purposes and my tumblr is possessed by Cthulhu

Biweekly plotting- Every two weeks or so , Ill probably be popping up randomly to see if anyone wants something and see if we can bring something to the table. expect fun and choas from this. Next one will be on the 16 or 18th though due to ummmmm spoons being hella low

Curfew- Okay so not really affecting a lot but if I suddenly start disappearing around 10-10:30 on tumblr or discord, Im probably trying to fall asleep my cicadan rhythm needs fixing I just want to make sure to let you know I'm not ignoring you because I'll feel very bad.

Mini fun section- Will probably not update this one

Top 3 character inspo for Juri

---> Left to Right

Yuri from Yuri on Ice, Juzo from Dangan Ronpa 3, and Murasakibara from Kurokos Basketball. Emotionally constipated with a good heart are my favoites

Top 3 character inspo for Nova

--> Left to Right

Luvia for Fate, Kurisu from Steins;gate, and Rei from Eva. Rich girls with more than meets the eye and cause earth shattering events are always my favorite

Conclusion

Basically thats all I wanted to say. I probably will discuss more and try to be more open. I love this environment and I want to improve. I did cry a lot last night and today over my decisions, hell fearing Ill sound like a jerk, but I hope I illuminated my feeling the best I can. I know I don't say it but I appreciate the admins and members. Heres to hoping we become better together
