So many bad ends at once!
I think I'm nearing the final bits of Death End Re Quest 2 and it's been an amazing journey with the mystery and tension. The amount of "bad end" scenes kind of makes me lean on the "we're going to reset everything" as final ending for the game otherwise there would be problems in making the third game be a continuity.
From what I've seen so far, both first and second are linked chronologically and they are part of the same story so I would guess the third one will be as well. I can't wait to play it too later on.
