Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair Review–Expect the Unexpected (The Koalition)

Garrett from The Koalition writes:

As brilliant as the original Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc is, I worried that Spike Chunsoft would turn the franchise into a string of formulaic sequels, the luster of the original diminishing upon each return. At first, I thought Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair confirmed my suspicions, but that’s where Spike Chunsoft got me. While it mostly adheres to the same structure of the first, it quickly subverted my expectations, spinning aspects of the original into something fresh yet familiar.

I keep hearing alot about this game. Maybe just maybe one day i'll actually get into this franchise lol

Two games have come out within the same year, and a third person shooter is coming out soon. You should have plenty of opportunities to get started lol.

Yes!, I was gonna have the first one my GOTY, but I liked this one slightly more.

Huge reccomendation, kinda like Battle Royale or Hunger Games. Great characters and story.

I hadn't thought of those comparisons, but you're right!

This series needs more recognition.
