I bought 1-2 Reload version on PS4 and I'm halfway through the 1st game and the writing is just bad. Basically all the characters are so one-dimensional with the "gamer" character being probably every gamer stereotype you can think of while being exaggerated to the nth degree. All the male characters are pretty bad with only one interesting one. Of course, the player character is the blandest person ever. The female characters fair quite a bit better coming much closer to actual humans than the males but still we're only reaching average quality at best. There's one female character that has split personalities (which are both highly annoying) but each personality is as one-dimensional as you can get. The plot so far is nothing that great (I have I think 7 characters left alive) and the wacky teddy bear thing Monokuma really isn't that wacky or entertaining really. The murder plot themselves aren't anything really above a CSI episode. The whole sorta "wacky" Japanese school setup with students killing each other has been done more interestingly and entertainingly in basically any other Japanese movie I've seen with such a setup with even my limited experience of such things.
I started playing Wolfenstein II as I got it cheap on Black Friday and the story and characters are far more entertaining than anything going on in Danganronpa. Shouldn't something that is a "novel" have better characters and plot than a AAA FPS about killing Nazis? Lastly, if Danganronpa does get good at the end with some satisfying twists, why the fuck is it taking so long to get good? The game / visual novel is longer than a freaking full season of a network TV show with 20+ hour long episodes.
