Newly-appointed Special Agent Mizuki and her AI partner Aiba are tasked to solve the bizarre Half Body serial killings in this sequel to the critically acclaimed AI: The Somnium Files.
Six years ago, the right half of a corpse was discovered under mysterious circumstances. The left half was never found…until six years later, when it was discovered completely fresh with no signs of decay, as though the victim was alive until just recently. Now, newly-appointed Special Agent Mizuki and her AI partner Aiba are tasked to solve the bizarre Half Body serial killings…

The achievement where you toss a shoe really far made me scream the loudest i've ever screamed at any video game, in pure agony. unbridled pain and dismay. if you like Spike Chunsoft games you'll like it.
There is just a charm, a very special charm about the humor in this game, the search for clues is better. It's not for everyone but damn if it doesnt deserve a chance

"nirvanA Initiative" é o segundo jogo da série AI: The Somnium Files, lançado em 2022.
Seis anos após os eventos do jogo anterior, uma nova serie de homicídios bizarros começa, só que agora as vitimas são cortadas ao meio verticalmente e só metade dos corpos são encontrados nas cenas de crime. Os policiais Ryuki e Mizuki, junto com suas parceiras Tama e Aiba (duas IAs em formato de bola que ficam no lugar de um de seus olhos) devem achar o assassino. nirvanA Initiative pode ser jogado sem ter conhecimento dos eventos do jogo anterior (vide a aparência do Date), mas ainda sim é recomendado começar pelo primeiro.
Assim como o anterior, a jogabilidade se divide em duas partes: falar com NPCs e as sessões de Somnium, onde os protagonistas usam uma máquina chamada Psync para entram na mente dos suspeitos para extrair informações.
No geral, os Somnium melhoraram, pois são mais variados e fazem mais sentido do que nos do jogo anterior. As cenas de QTE continuam exageradas e toscas, mas as piadas de revistas pornôs diminuíram já que o Date não é mais o protagonista. As sessões de interrogatório do primeiro jogo foram substituídas por cenas onde você investiga uma reprodução em 3D da cena do crime para obter mais evidencias (algo similar aos hologramas da Kay Faraday nos spin-offs da série Ace Attorney) e deduzir os movimentos do assassino. Algumas partes possuem puzzles e eles geralmente envolvem matemática, mas você não pode ver os números da equação na mesma tela que é pra digitar o resultado, o que acaba atrapalhando.
Ao completar os Somniums, você ganha "moedas" para comprar extras como acessórios e roupas para as AI-Balls. Infelizmente, você precisa voltar à tela de título sempre que for usar a loja, fora que as roupas não mudam nas seções de Somnium, apenas na "Tama/Aiba Room" do menu. No final, é algo obsoleto. Também há um minigame de bichinho virtual aparentemente inspirado no do Danganronpa 2, só que você precisa responde perguntas na tela de menu à cada 15 minutos para fazê-lo crescer. Por alguma razão, só há 1 slot de salvar o jogo.
Se a jogabilidade tem seus altos e baixos, a história (que deveria ser o ponto forte) é o seu maior defeito. A primeira parte é até interessante, porém as principais reviravoltas do jogo são muito forçadas e estragam toda a experiencia. As 3 que mais me decepcionaram foram:
[h1]SPOILERS PESADOS ABAIXO [/h1]
* [b]O "plot-twist do fluxograma": [/b] Como metade de um cadáver de alguém morto à 6 anos atrás aparece intacto numa cena de crime e sem ter envelhecido um dia? [spoiler]Não tem mistério; a história do jogo é que está fora de ordem! Algumas partes do Ryuki se passam 6 anos no futuro e algumas partes da "Mizuki" se passam 6 anos no passado, mas esse plot-twist só funciona porque os personagens (de alguma forma) não envelhecem (exceto a Mizuki).[/spoiler]
* [b]Retcons e a identidade de mulher mascarada: [/b] [spoiler]Primeiro esse jogo dá um retcon na história da Mizuki, dizendo que agora ela é adotada e foi um dos experimentos do Chikara (o que por si só já contradiz o primeiro jogo, pois sua mãe dizia "queria que você nunca tivesse nascido!"), agora a Mizuki é um clone melhorado de outra cobaia do Chikara, com a qual jogamos boa parte da história sem perceber pois ambas possuem o mesmo olho danificado com a Aiba no lugar, corte de cabelo, roupas, personalidade, estilo de luta e até as lambretas são iguais.[/spoiler]
* [b]As burrices do Tearer: [/b] [spoiler]Não há qualquer necessidade dele deixar os corpos de suas vítimas nas cenas de crime. A justificativa é que ele faz isso era para avisar seus seguidores sobre a localização do local de lançamento do míssil contendo o vírus, porém as coordenadas já aparecem em formato de código nos vídeos de Nirvana. Se ele mantivesse os corpos do Jin e do Chikara em seu esconderijo e só enviasse os vídeos (ou simplesmente mandasse uma mensagem de WhatsApp para seus seguidores dizendo "festa no Estádio - dia x"), a polícia nem saberia que ele existe para impedir seus planos.[/spoiler] Além disso, [spoiler]a maneira que ele é morto enquanto paquerava uma garçonete que ele acabou de conhecer (e que é filha de sua ultima vítima) e conta pra ela sobre seu esconderijo secreto e a máquina de fatiar corpos é idiota ao extremo.[/spoiler]
Outras situações forçadas incluem:
* [spoiler]A Tama não perceber que o Tearer estava na cena do crime do Komeji porque achou que ele era só um manequim mascarado carregando uma pistola e que fazia parte do cenário;[/spoiler]
* [spoiler]O protótipo da maquina de Psync usado pelo vilão do jogo anterior ter sido deixado intacto pra qualquer um usar (e por alguma razão não precisa mais arrancar um olho de cada paciente e enfiar um cabo dentro para funcionar);[/spoiler]
* [spoiler]O Date perder a memória (de novo), sair da catedral subterrânea sem ninguém ter visto e ficar desaparecido por 6 anos sem que ninguém ô reconhecesse, mesmo com toda a tecnologia avançada (incluindo as câmeras de segurança na cidade). Será que pelo menos ele percebeu que estava usando peruca?[/spoiler]
* [spoiler]O pai da Kizuna não aceita o namoro dela com o Lien, por isso contrata mercenários para matá-lo na entrada do próprio orfanato e na frente da filha paraplégica;[/spoiler]
* [spoiler]Todo o climax do jogo, incluindo a Aiba "voando" do olho da Mizuki pro do Date, e as duas Mizukis alcançando um míssil com lambretas voadoras e ô explodindo com as bombas caseiras feitas pelo Shouma.[/spoiler]
A sequencia melhora na jogabilidade nas partes de Somnium e no ritmo da história, mas infelizmente piora em todo o resto. Não recomendo.

Ok it's HARD to recommend. This is the potential man of Uchikoshi games. So many interesting characters! What an interesting story and plot twist and major mystery! The somnia and gameplay are actually way better this time! The [spoiler]DIVERGE ROUTE[/spoiler] is actually AMAZING! [b]BUT THEN...[/b] bad pacing!!! Action sequences that feel [b]bad to watch[/b]??? confusing dialogue that is hard to follow which (spoilers) [spoiler]make 10x more sense AFTER the timeline plot twist, but feel so DULL before that point[/spoiler]!!! and some [u]character assassination[/u]/characters that I just don't CARE for (see:[spoiler]Iris, Ota, Moma, and MIZUKI (sadge) for point one, and Gen and Lien for point two[/spoiler]). If you really take some time into understanding the story, themes, and twists you will appreciate it and see they're actually REALLY interesting. BUT The execution felt sloppy for what could have been an all-time great game. i.e., potential man.
I recommend Uchi fans and people invested in the characters/comedic writing to play this. It's mid but it's my mid. After all, it has my wife, [b]Tokiko Shigure[/b], and I'm taking her to Atami next week.
比一代差一点意思。
Meta何意味?为了这个牺牲了挺多人设和剧情,Psync其实体验比前作好，抽象度降了挺多，指引也有逻辑
Not disappointing at all, I personally reeeeeeaallllyyy liked the new somniums (NEW MECANICS ? Y E S I'M SO HERE FOR IT >:0 ) These games are just so good AAAAAAAHHHHH- (wow what a constructive review :D)
7/10
This is a game about how losing 50,000 yen on pachinko will lead you to murder Two-face with tumor, then be chased by a schizo ptsd induced maniac with his BDSM horny police ai assistant and a random kid with a steel pipe(+ aiba/eyeball/ai ball/elephant/great suction woman).
好玩好玩，结局妇联集结大团战没绷住，唉这龙木也太区了。瑞希可爱捏
我是梦批
JAMAIS DE LA VIE JE JOUE A UN JEU SANS LIRE LES AVIS CE JEU EST DEGOUTANT ET JAI SKIP LES DIALOGUES DURANT LES 20 DERNIERES MINUTES. JE NE VAIS PAS TOUCHER LA SERIE ZERO ESCAPE NON MERCI J'AI PAS FAIM
为什么steam没有中评……
玩过前作再来玩的这部作品，感觉本作时间线接的是前作好结局（但不完全）和前作比还是稍有逊色。
[spoiler]可以看出来编剧不想让玩家察觉到故事不是按时间发展的，但瑞希篇没有处理好，给我的感觉特别割裂。 [/spoiler]尤其是要结束的时候一股脑给玩家灌输一堆信息，啊这对吗？确实有反转，但给我更多的不是震惊吧，感觉很普通。尤其是告诉我时间线是乱的时候，由于这条线给我的体验感不算好，差点气死。决战结束的时候，孩子们你们还记得那个黑发男子吗？）龙木篇还是非常优秀的，我觉得龙木这个角色塑造的太好了。[spoiler]但是异格篇就有种故事才开始讲就立马结束的感觉，可能因为这一篇应该算是彩蛋吗?）（但我要吐槽一下时雨的梦境，咋游的这么慢……[/spoiler]
不过很多探索方面的处理确实比前作好，[strike]我去你要知道你伊达键牢前辈那个时候啊……[/strike]
反派的动机什么的，想不出词来评价，普普通通吧。[spoiler] 感觉没有怎么去塑造幕后黑手的角色，逼格很低，莫名其妙就被人弄死了，结果你告诉我是喜欢上人家才把人叫过来的？啊？难道他没带脑子吗，他不是恋母情结比较重吗？关于手法，原来仅仅只是换器官什么的吗？我玩的时候还以为是一半个身体互换呢……感觉给我的震撼感不如前作人格互换。[/spoiler][strike]（话说过了这么久你们为什么还不把初代psync设备销毁?）[/strike]
好玩
这部比起一代确实是逊色了许多，连剧情上都难免有漏洞。两条线除了长大后的瑞希让我眼前一亮以外，女神棍时雨那部分真的挺让我云里雾里的…感觉莫名其妙，开局也是有点东施效颦的意思，没有复刻一代的成功。但独自拎出来的话还算是个不错的悬疑游戏。
Pior que o primeiro porque ele tenta esquecer dos acontecimentos da lore, e por conta disso o date fica muito mais arrombado nos olhos do jogador. mas ainda é legal e ainda da pra goonar jogando por causa da gameplay de so uma mão!
never let uchikoshi write an action scene again 🙏
怎么评价这部作品呢，如果单独拿出来，其实可以算是一部还行的作品，但是和前作比起来，这一部的缺点可就太多了。
剧情方面，依旧延续了第一部的带点无厘头桥段，会在各种看似接近真相的时候又抛出一个新谜题，梦境解密篇也做的比上一作的有一些无厘头解密好不少，算是做到了玩法为剧情服务，要是没有玩过第一部可能会觉得还是一部比较优秀的作品。但是总体感觉没有第一部那么紧凑，虽然也是一上来就抛出了一个大的，但是给人的紧迫感，悬疑感并没有上一部那么强，有的剧情并没有多少吸引人的地方，而且玩到后面揭开叙诡之后，整个游戏的逼格更是掉完了，结局的时候回看前面一开始留下的谜题更是只会觉得莫名其妙，喜欢的会觉得还行，想我这样觉得有的故弄玄虚的就会觉得有点说不出来的别扭的感觉。同时因为是两个主角两条线搜查，这种两边抓的想法让我觉得无论是龙木还是瑞希都没有塑造的太好，瑞希因为是前作角色延续到本作所以觉得还好，但是龙木的塑造就差第一部的伊达差太远了，明明有很多可以展开讲的东西，比如龙木的过去，认知障碍之类的重要的加深角色形象的东西偏偏给你一笔带过了，导致龙木的形象略显单薄，还有和环之间的关系，过去，互动大都要么只是简单提一嘴，让人完全感觉不到像是伊达和瞳伴之间那么强的羁绊。并且这一作为了烘托新主角，伊达基本上全程下线，并且后续短暂回归后因为瞳伴一直呆在瑞希眼睛里面没有多少和瞳伴的互动，明明上一作结尾那么深的羁绊，骗了我一波眼泪，然后这一作就让他们跟个路人一样，这合理吗，，，观感及其不爽。然后是配角的塑造，全方位不如前作，塑造的真的非常不好，严和祥磨那些莫名其妙的神人行为就不说了，米治这个角色更是让人看着就火大，还有伴和莱恩，因为时间跨度了6年，过了6年之后就莫名其妙在一起了，也没经历太多大事，之间的故事也不像上一作的瞳和猎鹰，伊丽丝和猎鹰那么让人动容，导致莱恩线的时候我全程没有任何感觉，无法让人共情，只当作是为了通往真结局必须游玩的一条路线。最后的解密篇的结局，也变成了究极合家欢，大家一起喊着羁绊和未来就砍上去了，也不能说不好吧，但是在这种解谜悬疑作品里面这样搞多少有点不适合， 又不是王道jrpg。。。
总结起来比起第一部还是差远了，无论是剧情节奏，氛围打造还是主角的塑造深度而言都不太行，还为了新角色而强行下线伊达并且令伊达和瞳伴之间深厚的羁绊几乎消失殆尽，ai梦境档案第二部的罪数不胜数啊。。。要是没玩过第一部打算直接玩2的话还是先玩第一部吧。。。
Keeps the spirit of the previous game, somnia are more varied now (yet one feels pretty frustrating and unfair). Overall, the game is nice, if you liked the first one, this one is crazier but still enjoyable.
垃圾游戏，梦境简直一坨屎，硬靠游泳耗光时间来恶心人，操你死妈
おじさんの自分からしてもキツイ昔のオタク特有のノリ、ギャグ、しつこさ、下ネタ
それは前作からもずっときついけど、それを我慢してでもやりたくなる面白さがあります
スパチュンのソフトって感じです。決してバランス良く総合点が高い訳ではない
この時代にしてはグラフィックも古臭いし不便なとこは不便だし、ツッコミどころはいくらでもある
でも癖があって面白い。合う人には合うと思います。
通底する古き良き時代のヒューマニズムみたいな雰囲気が自分は好きですし、神秘か科学かというラインの反復横跳びも好きです。キャラも魅力的。
きもいはきもいけどこういう尖ったオタク感覚持ってる人は現代ではほとんどいなくなったので貴重だとも思います。
i love tama
As someone who loves the first game, I think this game is still good but makes a number of missteps that prevent it from reaching the same heights. Most of my complaints lie with the story despite it being more ambitious than the original. Mainly, the conflicts felt less personal, the new characters less charismatic, and some of the developments felt retreaded from the first game. Additionally, the ways they structured the mystery and routes for the big reveals didn't feel very engaging in the moment to moment scenes. By the time the reveals started coming I already wasn't as invested into storylines and the payoff itself wasn't strong enough to overcome that bias... partially because some of the information they obfuscated to make it work were silly even by Uchikoshi's standards. I think it was still a fun time overall but it failed to reach the heights I was expecting.
For some of the other parts of gameplay: sound design and visuals are mostly the same (positive) and the voice acting remains good. The somniums varied more in that it had lower lows, but higher highs so it was at least memorable in that aspect. Unfortunately, achievements it seems are significantly more grindy to complete so I'm refraining from doing that here like I did in the first Somnium files.
ストーリーにおいては前作ほどの面白さはない。体を半分に裂かれた理由も大したものではなく前作主人公が何年も行方不明な理由もショボい。ただ演出や新キャラの良さはなかなか。でもそこにフォーカスを当てすぎて前作で馴染みの深いキャラは雑な扱いになってます。とくに瞳。
セールならギリおすすめできる面白さです
《AI：夢境檔案 涅槃肇始》是系列第二作，發生的時間點亦緊追於一代之後，但主線劇情與前幾無關聯。雖說如此，鑒於玩過前作的玩家，才能對前作即有登場的人物有較深的認識，筆者強烈建議有興趣的玩家從一代開始接觸。
故事講述主角因故發現了遭人從中縱切的半具屍體。巧合的是，主角數年以前便目睹過同一人的另外半邊屍體。事隔多年才遭人遺棄的半邊屍體究竟意味著什麼？主角由此展開了他的追尋。本作保持了系列一貫的特點：不俗的劇情水準、大量的幽默對白（依然有許多中年阿伯最愛的黃腔段子）、獨特的「夢界」系統，在此之上又新增了「擴增實境」系統，令玩法多了一分變化。
相較一代而言，筆者沒那麼喜歡本作劇情，覺得其可以「裝神弄鬼」一言以蔽之。許多乍看之下玄之又玄的謎團，其謎底都不夠震撼，揭露其奧秘時總讓我心想著：「啊？就這樣而已？」並且，打破第四道牆，直接與玩家對話的把戲，在編劇經手過的作品中已是司空見慣，甚至令人生厭。系列獨特的「夢界」系統在本作似乎變得單純許多，不再需要玩家於偌大的地圖中探索，與物件互動時盲猜正確的選項。本作的「夢界」更加具有讓人印象深刻的主題性，選項也比前作更加「邏輯」，更能揣摩出其間的思路。
就劇情導向的遊戲而言，本作有著及格以上的水準，且讓人願意購買其後續作品。推薦給已經玩過一代的玩家。

[h1]О том, как порножурналы победили прорыв четвёртой стены[/h1]
[i] Или странные приключения Рюуки и Мизуки. [/i]
Мне очень хотелось надеяться, что продолжение первой части будет лучше. Интереснее, с более закрученным сюжетом, более безумными сомниумами... И, кажется, учитывая направление другой серии игр этого разработчика, а именно небезызвестной ронпы, это было глупостью. В игре безусловно были хорошие, интересные моменты, трогательные сцены, занимательные головоломки, культисты, провидица, общение с игроком, а не персонажем, но... Но это составляло едва ли процентов тридцать всей игры, в то время как остальные 70% поглотили неуместные шутки определенного характера и скучнейшие QTE. Дыры в сюжете заполняются бредятиной, выставленной за гениальный ход, а повествование напоминает собой плохой фанфик, написанной по первой части игры. Что ж, если вы все еще со мной и читаете обзор, давайте немного задержимся на истории.
В этой части у нас два протагониста - Рюуки и Мизуки. Оба стараются раскрыть дело о странных убийствах, совершают вещи, не особо одобряемые полицией и находят истину о себе и о мире, в котором они живут. Если, конечно, мы напряжемся и немного поможем им с этим. Весь сюжет держится на грани между игрой и игроком, между создателем и творением и, если бы эту идею по-настоящему развили, внесли в сюжет больше взаимодействия с реальным миром вместо того, чтобы шутить про фаллосы каждые тридцать секунд, вышла бы интересная игра. Может, если бы нам правильно намекали о симуляции, если бы нас не пытались шокировать довольно очевидными и ожидаемыми поворотами, это мог бы быть шедевр своего времени. Увы, этого не произошло.
Я не буду расписывать плюсы и минусы этой игры, как обычно делаю в своих обзорах. Хотя бы потому, что абсолютно все в ней смялось в один огромный гордиев узел, перерубить который можно только финальной оценкой, не вдаваясь в подробности.
[b]Итог[/b]
Играйте на свой страх и риск. В этой части мы узнаем многое о персонажах из предыдущей игры, но это, пожалуй, единственная интересная вещь за все время геймплея. Готовы ли вы потратить деньги и время на это? Если вам нравится обилие nsfw контента, то, возможно, я могу вам посоветовать эту часть. Иначе - четыре стальных трубы из десяти инспекторов, чье имя нельзя называть.
首发买了switch版，结果工作太忙一直没碰，直到26年春节假期才打通关
很有打越风格的作品，1代的精华都在，糟粕也去了不少，我不喜欢的家庭包寿司环节在这代缩的简短干练（但确实不如一代家庭戏感人），大结局包寿司倒是很不错
一代给到9分这代能拿8.5吧，一代给8那这代也能拿到8
很值，谐音梗黄段子前作neta管饱，老玩家很感动
扣分点在于反派比较low，跟1代最后打完的达成感比起来弱一些，然后就是部分反派的人设不是特别好，一部分角色没立起来，一代的角色刻画因为没有限制，还是太生动了
毕竟是续作，只能在框架内发挥，期待打越有生之年还能推出全新新作，无法成眠的伊达键等我有空肯定会买，我不买打越哪来的钱做下一代，感谢打越给我带来的精彩的37个小时
P.S. 我永远喜欢小瑞希
第一部通关了，第二部还在玩中，感觉不错
ITS SOOOO GOOD PLEASE MAKE MORE GAMES LIKE THESE!@@!!
It's been years since i played the first game so i can't tell hurr durr the first is better the sequel is bad because that would be a lie, i enjoyed this exactly as i enjoyed the first, this is the kind of game that besides making you invested in the story and mystery it also make you invested in the characters and ho boy do i love them, and a dance with the ending credits like the first game is something the devs couldn't give up on.
卧槽这个b游戏我差点就懒得写测评了.jpg
（直接抄刚打完时发在微博的repo）
剧情中规中矩，标准的立本人笔法。谢谢HE狂魔打越，[spoiler]我本来真以为伊达要无了，结果他活了，所以最后一战的龙木我根本没担心他（+无情）。[/spoiler]
最大的槽点是！[spoiler]Tearer为啥最后智商骤降，主动请被害者的女儿来见面，还毫无防备直接请到切割机边上，这不是躺平等着被寻仇反杀吗！心真大！这么啥b怎么做的大boss啊兄弟！！！[/spoiler]
诡计方面，利用了[spoiler]AVG默认按时间顺序讲故事的既定认知，玩的途中确实很容易发现一些没头没脑的奇怪细节，比如瑞希突然说有个重要的妹妹、突然心脏病发作，摩天轮的小朋友突然消失等等。不过打越是真的没活了，居然要NPC自己解释笑话了，世风日下[/spoiler]
解谜方面，这次的梦境更接近正统推理或解谜系，逻辑比较严谨思路比较清晰，不太“梦”。甚至出现了[spoiler]追逐战和躲猫猫这种恐怖医院风元素[/spoiler]，看得出来打越是真的没梗了.jpg。
演出方面，我知道大家要吐槽什么.jpg，但我已经完全接受了打越的风格所以不表（……）。这作的战斗演出还是可以的，是让我直呼老公好帅的程度（卧槽真不挑啊lbb）。最后一战非常有美国大片感，让我想起了化解危机4的手枪干爆导弹（。
顺带一提我（至少刚打完的时候是这么写的）很喜欢时雨！不仅是冷淡出世的气质和平静的疯狂感，更是因为她[spoiler]穿透两个主角，直接和观测者——打越继Blick Winkel后又送了我一个新的外号Frayer——对话，让我很有亲切感，或许这就是meta的魅力吧！隐藏结局让我有一种心满意足的欣慰和成就感，愿你获得永远的解脱。[/spoiler]
El juego es bastante entretenido y cuenta una historia que, si bien interesante y bien construida, no está al nivel de la anterior entrega a mi juicio, por no mencionar que los dos protagonistas que manejamos aquí, si bien están totalmente bien construidos y manejados, no están al nivel de nuestro señor el todopoderoso Kaname Date, así como la química entre éstos y sus IAs acompañantes, que no se sienten igual. Lo recomiendo porque sigue siendo una historia entretenida e interesante y con un elenco de personajes nuevos (y de la entrega anterior también) que le dan mucha chicha al juego, por lo cual pienso que merece la pena bastante, especialmente para aquellos que jugaron la anterior entrega.
This is not at all like Face Off unfortunately. But it is like Hot Fuzz but also nothing like Hot Fuzz. 10/10
[i]This is a situation where I would prefer if there was a "mixed" review. [/i]
[hr][/hr]
[h1]Overall Experience[/h1]
[h2]First half[/h2]
The first half of the game is when I was truly invested in the story and setting. The themes and the visual spectacle was impressive. The game was at its best when it laid out the main characters and motives for the plot, and you were still figuring out what is going on.
[hr][/hr]
[hr][/hr]
[h2]Second half[/h2]
[spoiler]
There is a specific moment in the game where you have an overall feeling of what is going on and the whole plot is supposed to start piecing together the story. This is where the quality of the game took a nosedive. For every small piece of relevant information, you have to go through a bunch of nothing statements that feel like padding. The jokes and unserious moments are not the problem. That is optional. The problem is that most of the time the story goes nowhere and at the end it drops a small clue.
By the time you collect the relevant information, the game spells to you what is going on, and then it reveals to you the main plotwist. It makes you rethink everything and is kind of a wow moment. That is until you ask yourself what the point is. Hiding information and then spelling the player facts that turn everything upside down is just a waste, instead of letting the player reach that conclusion themselves.
The plot twist in itself is a letdown. Once you are at the final stretch of the game, the only thing I wanted was more branching paths because it was nowhere as impactful as the first game. The ending was just... meh. It sure had "stakes", like the fate of the world depends on the main cast, but at that point there was no mystery and no payoff.
Aside from the main plot, there were no "branching paths", most of the alternate paths require some sort of password or secret information, so you were beelining throughout the whole story.
[/spoiler]
[hr][/hr]
[h1]Gameplay[/h1]
The gameplay is fine. The only parts that were painfully slow were the fight scenes where somehow they don't have good sound effects that would make them entertaining, there were so many fight scenes and by the third one it became tiring.
Most of the dream sections were fine, but they became more "logical" it doesn't allow for exploration aside from getting the eyes and they became less "dream-like". It had some great Somniums but overall it was a step down from the first game.
[hr][/hr]
[h1]Characters[/h1]
They should have focused on one character, it feels like both of the main characters' stories were half-done, [spoiler] Ryuki had potential, but as you go to the second half of the game his story is wasted. I really liked that section of the story because they were showing characters like Tokiko that were unsettling and I hoped that the game continued with that atmosphere. Mizuki kind of goes around while the focus is more on the supporting cast, which means she just witnesses the story with us, instead of taking part in the story. [/spoiler] It would seem like the pacing wasted both of these characters' arcs.
[hr][/hr]
I tried everything and completed the game, but I can't recommend this game, which has very high highs and very agonizing lows. Especially when the story is what I feel is the weakest aspect of the game, which is kind of the main reasons to play this type of games.
I was following along with the story until The Twist™️ happened, and the game asked me to use my brain at more than 20% capacity. So basically, I have no idea what's going on anymore... but, I'm having fun. The characters are as charming as ever, and pretty much everything about the game has been improved, compared to the previous one.
One of the highlights for me was when Iris sang "[spoiler]I really want to chug jug with you[/spoiler]"
...It was funny. Also, she made me play [spoiler]Pokémon GO[/spoiler]. That was pretty fun.
(Final thoughts after beating the game)
Oh... um... so THAT happened, haha. That ending was a bit silly for sure. Overall, the characters were as likeable as ever... so I still had a good time. I'd say I was more fascinated by the first game's story than nirvanA Initiative's.
THE NUMBERS, RYUKI, WHAT DO THEY MEAN???????
Не так хороша как первая, и тупой юмор потерялся( Хороший фанфик вобщем
很有趣的诡计
Самое трушное индийское кино 2. Учикоши кормит.
Muy atrapante, los somnium son graciosos y divertidos. Y si te gustó la primer entrega, esta te va a sorprender y atrapar de la misma manera. Un crack el Uchikoshi
Better in every way to the 1st one IMO (I think this is an unpopular take).
I like switch between the two teams. More of the 1st game but better. Still good characters, good writing, good humor and nice dub.
Premièrement, merci à la DreamTrad pour la traduction française qui m'a permis de comprendre le jeu (et donc de l'acheter). Vu que c'est une suite, je vais surtout comparer pour cet avis.
Le jeu est bien, mais comme son ainé, il n'est pas parfait !
Le gros point positif, ce sont les personnages et leurs histoires. Je ne vais pas entrer dans les détails pour ne pas spoil. Cependant, si on doit parler des personnages jouables : je préfère l'alchimie entre Date & Aiba du premier jeu. L'alchimie entre les nouveaux personnages jouables et leur AI-Ball n'est pas mauvaise, juste une préférence pour celle du premier opus !
Les psync/somnium sont bien réalisés et proposent toujours des interactions différentes, seulement le "pourquoi" on psync est juste stupide. On le fait pour un oui ou pour un non. On perd un peu du sérieux de son utilisation qu'on avait dans le premier opus. De même pour la finalité des infos qu'on est venu chercher en faisant un psync... dans trop de cas, l'info recherchée est donnée APRES la résolution du somnium, pas dans celui-ci directement et souvent pas par la personne dans laquelle on a réalisé un psync. On se retrouve donc avec beaucoup de somnium à résoudre avec le sentiment qu'ils sont là juste pour ralonger artificiellement la durée de vie du jeu.
Concernant l'histoire, no spoil, mais elle est intéressante même si j'ai préféré celle du premier jeu que je trouvais plus intimiste. Petit point négatif sur la compréhension de celle-ci arrivée à un certain point. Cela aurait pu être mieux exécuté pour éviter de nous perdre.
Pour conclure, le jeu propose beaucoup d'améliorations par rapport au premier jeu. Il exécute certaines choses assez maladroitement, mais ce n'est pas mauvais pour autant. Si vous avez aimé le premier jeu, vous aimerez celui-ci aussi, car c'est une bonne suite et j'espère avoir un 3ème jeu AI pour revoir ces personnages et cet univers que j'apprécie grandement !
这个情节实在有点强扭的意思，虽然能圆回来，但并不能给玩家多大的爽感。个别梦境的游玩体验也实在很糟糕
The more i play it, the more it became the E files.....
UI等操作感良くなったがストーリーが微妙になった。
オチが…
真看无力了
A great game, and overall I think much better than the first. There's a greater variety of puzzles in this one, the expanded cast are all people you get attached to, and it's a much more emotionally nuanced game as well. Plus it's really clever, in ways that go far beyond that of the first (but saying more would spoil it). It makes a lot of bold choices that ultimately pay off, the obvious one being that Date is absent for most of the game, but there are also two major plot twists that, while controversial, I think were well-executed and foreshadowed enough to forgive.
The only complaint I have is that certain features did not work for me. During the game, a window playing "ViewQube" videos will occasionally pop up, and while the sound played for me, the video just showed a blank screen. Ultimately, this didn't effect my gameplay at all (the content of the videos aren't narratively important), but it affected other nonessential areas as well, such as the game startup animation and the sequence that plays when beginning a psync. (And crucially, the entire end credit dance number was just a black screen with bad singing!) It seems as if I'm not the only one who experienced problems with this, but whether it's because I didn't have the right hardware or whether it's a bug that certain copies have, I don't know.
Regardless, even though I liked the first game, I absolutely loved this one. 8/10
对于不熟悉打越钢太郎作品的玩家 或者至少没有玩过《极限脱出》系列的玩家来说
《 AI：梦境档案 涅槃肇始》是一部有足够吸引力的作品，剧情没什么大毛病，氛围渲染的也到位，人设也足够可爱
当然非要说毛病的话就是 打越一如既往地“我抄我自己”依然健在。对于熟悉他的玩家和重度地推理悬疑玩家来说，本作地推理要素没那么浓厚，或者说没那么难解密，当然这也是《梦境档案》系列有别与《极限脱出》的地方。毕竟《梦境档案》系列在定位上就相对轻度。
最后 我 怎么感觉 这作舔狗有点多啊？
I recently finished AI: The Somnium Files – Nirvana Initiative and 100% completed the game. From a gameplay and presentation standpoint, this is easily the strongest entry in the series, with improvements across the board in nearly every technical and mechanical aspect.
Narratively, the plot is solid, though it does not quite reach the heights of the first game—particularly when it comes to the ending. That said, the story shines in its meta elements, which are handled in a clever and engaging way. The overall runtime is slightly longer than that of the original, and the pacing generally benefits from this added length.
The humor remains a strong point of the series. The jokes land consistently, and the newly introduced characters are largely likable and well-integrated into the narrative. The central mystery surrounding the Half Body (HB) case starts off intriguing and well-constructed, but the eventual reveal feels underwhelming and lacks the impact the buildup promises.
The game features two protagonists—one of whom is a newly recruited character—working in parallel to uncover the truth behind the case. Structurally, it closely mirrors the first AI: The Somnium Files, but with clear upgrades in gameplay depth, production values, and overall presentation. The increased budget is evident, and it significantly enhances the experience.
Ideally, this should be where the series stops in terms of major entries. I would much rather see the franchise conclude on a strong note than continue with lower-quality spin-offs like No Sleep for Kaname Date. Despite its niche appeal, AI: The Somnium Files remains an underrated gem of a franchise.
Overall, Nirvana Initiative is a confident and polished sequel that excels mechanically, even if its narrative payoff doesn’t fully match its ambition. 8/10.
不推薦，和一代完全不能比
[spoiler]
角色方面，那個大小姐和開鎖佬的劇情簡直毫無意義又無聊，中間還要弄一個有錢老爸不讓女兒和人交往的白癡劇情，作爲主角之一的龍木角色塑造很無聊，和一代的伊達根本無法比，還不如讓伊達繼續擔任主角，然後瑞希的設定也吃書了，突然就變成是收養的。
劇情方面，爲了給這代角色表現空間，又把伊達弄失憶然後讓他直接消失六年，最搞笑是一開始我以爲他失蹤是隱藏起來調查案件，結果居然是失憶去熱海享受人生。 然後劇情的交錯表現，我個人認爲很牽强，兩個瑞希的性格和語氣明明是不同的，但在玩六年前和後時卻感覺不出差異，最後才告訴你原來兩個是不同的人。
結局方面，這代有隱藏結局，是利用打破第四面墻來達成的完美結局，這方面就見仁見智，我個人是非常討厭這種劇情，這令我覺得至今經歷的包括一代的劇情都失去意義，爲甚麽不能像一代一樣好好解迷，塑造角色，非要弄個神棍時雨出來惡心人。
[/spoiler]
如果喜歡一代的話，把美好記憶留在一代就好，不建議玩二代
미즈키 내아내임
本作的核心诡述与相关概念确实很有趣——仅凭这一点，我就愿意给出“可以一试”的推荐。但问题也同样明显：本作在大量细节处理上显得非常粗糙，整体编排的完成度远不如一代那种浑然一体的质感。以下会不可避免地与一代对比：我评价的仍是本作，只是续作天然难以脱离前作的参照系。
1）剧情节奏
我很喜欢一代的一点是：它在“该严肃的时候严肃、该胡闹的时候胡闹”，两种模式切得很干净，所以玩家能在需要投入情感时顺利沉浸，在需要放空大脑时也能无拘无束地享受无厘头。
而本作的处理则让人难以判断它到底想认真讲故事还是想纯粹搞怪凹人设，直接削弱叙事的情绪牵引：你刚准备进入剧情的情感区间，它就把你推回表演区；你刚接受它要胡闹，它又突然要求你严肃共情。结果就是反复被“急转弯”甩出轨道。
2）梦界
本作最大的问题之一，是梦界在剧情编排上的定位发生了令人遗憾的漂移。一代的梦界虽然有谜语人、逻辑破碎等问题，但至少它承担的是“获取核心情报、触及关键秘密”的功能，意象也往往与主线紧密相连，整体有一种怪核但自洽的贯通感。
而二代更像是把梦界用作“解决同伴心理问题”的工具：大量角色本质上是老好人，剧情冲突常靠耍脾气、搞误会、拒绝沟通，然后顺势进入梦界——这个模式不断循环。
更糟的是，这些梦界在角色塑造上的投入产出比很差：
大部分的梦界关心的“核心问题”，往往是不进梦界也一清二楚的（尤其是严、莱恩、绊等人）。结构偏简单的解谜结束后，你对角色的理解几乎没有新增：进去前你觉得他/她是什么样的人，出来后仍然是那样。
同时它还严重破坏心流：当你正在整理已知情报、推测谜底、构建各种可能性时，剧情却硬把你拖进与核心信息几乎无关的梦界，让你耽搁二三十分钟。回到现实再想重拾推理心境，又得耐着性子走一段主线才能回到状态——然后很快你又被要求去下一个“问题儿童同伴”的梦界。整个悬疑推进被切得支离破碎。
3）演出
打斗与歌舞的演出也让我非常难以接受。
如果制作组并不打算在这些段落上投入足够表达，那完全可以像一代那样，用彻底的无厘头向观众明确示意“别认真”。但本作不仅安排了大量类似场景，更要命的是：很多明显需要情感沉浸的关键节点，也要通过这种扯淡式演出呈现。于是玩家只能不断经历从无厘头表演瞬间切到情感爆发场面的跳转，情绪刚蓄起来就被打断。至于歌舞这种迪士尼行为——至少对我来说属于彻底无法共振的那一类。我全部快进掉了。
4）主线
本作并非严格意义上的推理作品，但既然主打悬疑，在一定程度上仍应接受“推理十诫”式的审视。很遗憾，它几乎对其中半数规则进行了挑战，而挑战后的答卷不尽人意。
5）反派
由于可能涉及剧透，所以我没办法太详细讲。压迫感不足、手段与气质都显得廉价，整体就是——Low，且Low得要命。
6）总结
本作是一部优缺点都极其突出的作品，而且从已经体验过一代的玩家的视角来看，缺点极其突出，属于一长带众短。综合而言，我的建议是：整体值得一试，但是最好等打折再入手体验。
6.5/10
二代梦境太正经了，没有一代疯疯癫癫的好玩，不像梦境像主题密室，主线倒是变离谱了，编剧我就问你怎么写出来电动车追导弹这么个桥段的，主角团全是自在极意功还有一个钢背兽，几个人给一群拿枪的当小兵清了，你比达芬奇坦克都牛b，你要像一代一样搞笑形式的打斗我也能理解你没经费，现在这整的真有种打肿脸充胖子的感觉，主线诡计也不如第一部，是我承认你写成这种效果是挺厉害，但是人犀人是靠自己撑起来的诡计，你二代靠叙事方面给我下套，真有种被耍的感觉。还有个不得不说的就是莱恩和绊这俩人的感情线，我个人感觉是挺莫名其妙的。还有这史蒂夫和好想来这俩人跟其他人都不是一个画风，还有瑞希的武力值把它当成一个无厘头的设定就很好啊，非要加成x战警就没意思了，还要给瑞希和一代的美人鱼加个很惨的身世，人妖倒是给加强成DM了，本来我还遗憾包括伊利斯和猛马的绝大多数老角色出场太少了，还是我没理解编剧的良苦用心。顺便提一嘴六年后伊利斯造型这块确实拉满了，我很满意。还有这世岛下面真的是一个魔丸一个灵珠，生出来的小孩神一个鬼一个，jojo有荒木庄，你世岛再出勤几部也可以整个四世同堂了。最后我要说，让伊达回来当主角！！！！！！！！！
It took me quite a while to finally get around to playing the sequel, as it didn't run on my old computer despite being able to handle the first game flawlessly (I was getting like 1-2 fps despite being on lowest settings). However, this was still a blast to play.
I streamed this to a friend so we took our time talking through the plot points and mysteries as theorizing and figuring out what is happening before it is revealed in game is fun for us. The characters are still fun and goofy at times, plot still confusing but engaging. The upgraded graphics and controls were so nice. The optional puzzles were also really fun to try and sit and solve (despite one of them having a typo and having to take to the internet to learn that information).
Overall, enjoyable experience. I do wish this was a true sequel in the sense that the characters that returned from the previous game kept their development and their personality reflect that change, but alas, they decided to try and make this more of a standalone title. The twist is a lot more convoluted than the first game, but I personally didn't mind it, the hints were there and everything clicked after it was revealed. Again, I had a blast playing this and recommend if you enjoyed the first one!
质量是可以的，但是...
这个厂商的大部分游戏都单买较贵，差评呼吁便宜售卖你的所有游戏。
202408，steam，steam掉卡抵扣，它处自定义包入的本体约5元。爱人如己，目前就这，看以后追评。
[h1] Uma melhora significativa [/h1]
Essa análise vai comparar pontos com o primeiro jogo já que apesar de ser possível começar com esse, não é nada recomendado, muita coisa vai ficar perdida
A história continua muito boa, os personagens novos são uma boa adição e o fato dos que eu menos gostei no jogo anterior terem um papel menor nesse me agradou, desculpa Iris. O mistério é muito interessante e o grande twist que X bagunça tudo que você achava que sabia é uma manobra bem característica do Kotaro Uchikoshi
No primeiro jogo eu tinha problema com o design central dos somnius que envolvia muita tentativa e erro e tudo que você interagia te punia tirando seu limitado tempo e, embora ainda seja um pouco assim aqui, o jogo agora te da dicas de como a lógica de cada somnium funciona, não te deixando tão perdido. Ainda acontece de uma parte ou outra ser frustrante, mas melhoraram algo que eu não tinha gostado
A trilha sonora dessa vez não foi completamente esquecível e, embora eu não consiga lembrar de muitas das músicas, algumas, especialmente nos somniuns mais perturbadores, ficaram perfeitas pro momento. As animações também melhoraram um pouco, mesmo ainda sendo um pouco travadas, e eles gostam muito de cenas de ação nesse viu. Não posso reclamar porque em qualquer outro jogo meio visual novel elas seriam imagens estáticas com texto então é louvável que tenham animado tanto, é um pouco tosco, mas um tosco fofo.
No geral me diverti bastante com esse, continua não sendo perfeito , mas agora está com bem menos imperfeições e onde importa mesmo, na história, ele não decepciona
This game is absolutely amazing I adore it, it has been a while since I have played the first game so it has been a pleasure to reaquaint myself with these quirky and mindbending games again.
玩完一代玩二代，剧情还是很不错，但一代人物戏份不多全拿去塑造二代人物了，还有新场景没什么交互，玩了一代推荐游玩，期待三代
Good game, I love the story and the puzzles really threw me for a loop sometimes! Highly recommend this and the first game if you love detective games.
This game was once again a gift from a friend of mine, the same one who had already given me the first AI: The Somnium Files, clearly determined not to let me get away with this series, i finally got his hands on nirvanA Initiative, and I'm glad i did it.
Overall, I quite enjoyed the game. I thought it worked very well as a good pastime, but at the same time it manages to hold your attention and immerse you in its strange and mysterious world.
The story is one of its strongest points. The mix between criminal investigation and science fiction is very well done, and the Somniums continue to be an original idea that gives the game its identity. Although the narrative is sometimes confusing, this ends up increasing curiosity and the desire to keep playing.
TL,DR: this is a great game which I very much enjoyed, however as someone who LOVED the first game I am a bit disappointed in the game as a sequel and think it could have been much better. Still undoubtedly an incredibly engaging and fun game which I highly recommend if you liked the first game.
Now on to my very long rambling thoughts (no spoilers):
In my opinion, the main flaw of this game is wanting to be standalone, which means no spoilers for the first game. This makes for some very unsatisfying character writing, since all the returning characters which we grew to love have to act exactly like they did at the start of the first game and be completely unaffected by everything that happened. It would have been a million times better to see how the events have changed and affected the characters and their relationships with each other (and, let's face it, who's playing this game without playing the first one??).
I also think the general quality of the plot is not as strong as the first game. It drags a bit in the middle and some aspects of the resolution and ending are not very satisfying. However, the fact that I was able to ramble for so long shows you how invested I was in this game. I genuinely really liked and enjoyed it. Just think it could have been truly amazing.
可玩性比第一部多了好多内容，太有意思了……求你们了喜欢极限脱出和打越的真必吃榜好吗……
梦境时间某些章节的太吃紧了,标准模式下有一点错误的选项时间就不够了,而且还莫名在某一章梦境加入即死机制,要避开还不给你提示还限制10s内做出选择,没有头绪的情况下很容易在这挂很多次,此外在动作战加入了太多没必要的复杂的动作检定,完全没必要那么复杂.
Great cast, great moments. I missed the messiness of the original.
面白かった
極限脱出シリーズの続編も見たい！
[h2]Uma experiência MUITO digna de sequel.[/h2]
Como é de praxe que algumas sequências sejam inferiores ao jogo original, prossegui com um pouco de medo de estragarem a franquia -[b] que bom que eu estava errada.[/b]
Nesse quesito, nirvanA Initiative nos traz uma grata surpresa. O jogo segue cuidadosamente a essência do primeiro Somnium Files. Em termos de diferença entre os jogos, só tive a sensação de um leve toque extra de terror e uma fina camada a mais do uso de conceitos do mundo real, sem perder sua essência que cativou tantos players.
Novamente temos uma trilha sonora incrível, um pacing muito bem equilibrado, uma história cativante do começo ao fim, personagens ímpares e totalmente relatáveis de alguma maneira, ramificações interessantes e plot twists que explodem sua mente. A história,[i] novamente[/i], é muito bem amarrada e tem um perfeito equilíbrio entre momentos engraçados e tristes, entre e ação e compreensão.
Pra mim, depois desse jogo, AI: The Somnium Files se consolidou como uma franquia com uma personalidade única que faz ótimo uso dos recursos que tem. Fiquei totalmente órfã quando fiz 100%. Recomendo muito a franquia, especialmente pros players de Danganronpa.[i][strike](mas eu achei bem melhor que danganronpa[/strike][/i]
Mieux que le 1er mais ils ont vraiment compliqué l'histoire pour pas grand-chose .
The story was better paced than the first AI:TSF, however the final hours arent so strong, its a convoluted mess, even thought you get a general idea of what and how it happened, you will most likely requiere a youtube video to have a better picture.
If you like mistery games and dont mind them being silly sometimes, get the bundle when on sale, its worth it.
hype moments and aura and ♥♥♥♥ all else
This game is a wild ride. It took me a very long time to finish it because I was streaming. In my opinion, the first game is better, though the twists in this one are fine. It's probably better when it's played in a shorter period of time instead of over the course of a year. If you played and enjoyed the first game, I do think this one is worth playing.
amazing story i love it so far. the only down side is that i barely see Date
真心感觉完全不如第一部，当然核心谜题还是蛮有趣的，
1.梦界太多了，没聊几句话剧情都没什么进展就抓个人进梦界，而且很多时候梦界弄完就为了一个小情报，周围人到结局之前都全是谜语人，有话我就不说，我憋着，就给你制造玩梦界的机会，但是我真不觉得这个东西有那么好玩。
2.支线做的还不如一代呢，硬搞煽情，而且全是一个套路，都是配角与配角之间的问题，类似于第一部应太线的模式，但是写的不如第一部应太线，更何况人是会审美疲劳的。另外花了这么多篇幅去讲配角，一代的瑞希与伊达，以及伊达与aiball的羁绊的量也太少了吧，全程几乎没有什么像样的互动。
3.为了第二部的饺子新搞了很多设定，咋说呢，也还行吧。
4.咱这个战斗场景真的做的很烂，就不要老安排一些战斗场景了，这部战斗比上一部还多呢，特别是你要是玩些搞怪的咱就当这个战斗场景就是过场了，你整的很严肃的去打，但是做的又这么难绷，去凹大场面，我也只能笑一笑
话说回来一开始主控视角龙木还觉得有些不适应的，但是玩到最后还是蛮喜欢和环这一队的，他俩办起案子来甚至感觉比瑞希和aiball组合玩的舒服，配角里前期感觉最莫名其妙的莱恩反而是我后期看着比较顺眼的角色，抱着绊跳舞这个想法很有意思
最后是，作为玩过一代的人来说我觉得是值得推荐的，但是没玩过一代的话，我觉得就很平庸了感觉
量量量量大管饱这一块
某段前：这剧情bug也太多了吧，后面真能救吗
某段后：噢牛批还有这种手法的
7/10, enjoyable but not as good as the first one
peak
Как по мне, сюжетно игра получилась даже лучше первой части. И куда более запутанной, пусть и намеренно. А вот в чём она уступает, так это персонажи. Новые главные герои сильно уступают дуэту Датэ-Айбо. Второстепенные персонажи также получились какими-то блеклыми.
I love you, Kuruto Ryuki
Yet another banger in the series, I enjoyed it all.
крутая игра
[h1]AI The Somnium Files = Nirvana Initiative = - 8/10[/h1]
Playtime: 27H
Synopsis:
Six years ago, the right half of a corpse was discovered. The left half was never found…until six years later, completely fresh with no signs of decay. Now, Special Agents Mizuki and Ryuki, along with their AI partners Aiba and Tama, are tasked to solve the bizarre Half Body serial killings while unveiling the mysterious plot known only as the Nirvana Initiative…
Plus:
+The main story is more tight knitted and neat than previous one
+The animation got upgrade, from character reaction to action sequence(still cheese AF tho)
+The song insert and ending now program correctly when choose the speaker language
+New cast is intrigued and some old cast got more backstory
+The Timeline twist and the Meta twist is great
+999 cabin bonus level
+The old kagami joke is still good
Minus:
-Too much padding for VN section
-Trivia collectible is separated by knowing previous game ending flag
-DLC costume
-This game only have ONE save slot, different with previous game...
Mixed:
=There is some plot hole, but not egregious confusing like the first game
=Some old cast its just for "random ass tangent" talk
=This game basically you played 2 different routed packaged as one big storyline game, kinda overwhelmed..
This is my last game 2025..
By steam replay, this year is the most active i played game...
Really fantastic writing. The mystery and suspense had me interested all the way through, just like with the first game. The characters are interesting and fun, and I enjoy going through the puzzles in the somnium scans. Could do without the stray woke comment that pops up once or twice, but I don't mind it that much. I hope they make a 3rd game, cause I'm really liking this franchise
完全4K対応（ムービー除く）
4Kでもとても軽いので、部屋が暑くならない。
難易度を低くすればソムニウムパートがとても簡単になる。
ストーリーの構成が複雑で、真相を解明されても「そうだったのかー！！！」っていう驚きがあまりなかった。
じっくり考えて、「なるほど、そういうことか」と静かに納得する感じ。
I liked the first one.
This one is awful.
Bad story. Bad characters.
依旧的黄段子，龙木和瑞希双视角进行也不错，但还是更希望能和伊达健一起办案
Anything for Mizuki
Worse than game 1 but still aight
This game has a healthy mix of being serious and unserious which makes me really like it. However I still find the original AI The Somnium Files to be a better experience and this just felt like more of the same.
PROS OF AI THE SOMNIUM FILES NIRVANA INITIATIVE:
- has kuruto ryuki
CONS OF AI THE SOMNIUM FILES NIRVANA INITIATIVE:
- Everything else
虽然点了推荐但是实际上不推荐，打越在2里为了这个叙事诡计吃了1的部分设定感觉有点为了这盘醋把之前的饺子都重包了，淡淡的……
但是如果是喜欢哲学类的那种应该会有点喜欢meta的感觉，我个人是觉得meta的有点不到火候还不如1里面直接写纯叙事诡计就是
i don't really do composed reviews, but this game was some of the best thirty hours of my life, in terms of gaming.
this game felt like a major upgrade to the first in several different ways, i feel like i was always kept on the edge of my seat. this is seen especially with how, much like the first game, it will take an element the player already knows and twist it like crazy, but in such a degree that it makes more sense than what you were originally presented with; at least to me.
one thing i am a little sad about that doesn't make a comeback here is the interrogation of suspects while piecing together events with evidence in the moment before taking them to the psync machine, in its place? [spoiler]the virtual reality reenactments where you piece together the evidence AND order of events directly at the "scene".[/spoiler] this mechanic was pretty fun to play around with, and the interactions that came with it only made it better.
playing the story from the perspective of both detectives was really interesting too, [spoiler]especially the grand twist that they reveal to you at the end with the timeline. it's a somnium files game, of course it'll lie to you.[/spoiler] i personally favored ryuki's perspective over mizuki's, but that is not to undermine one or the other; both were phenomenal and had their own developments to push their characters even further.
if you want a game that has a fine mix of humor and care-free moments alongside the tension and twists that come with solving a serial murder case, this game will more than likely fit that criteria just fine. just be sure to play the first game before this, or don't.
ota still a bum tho, 11/10.
Ein echt tolles entspanntes Spiel, welches auch eine interessante Story mit sich bringt. Hat mich wie beim ersten Teil, wieder gut abgeholt und auch den ein oder anderen Plot Twist parat, womit ich echt nicht gerechnet habe.
Es hat mich echt lange gebraucht um den 2. Teil jetzt erst zu spielen, aber es hat sich auf jeden Fall gelohnt. Sehr viele coole Szenen, sehr viele Konversationen mit Charakteren die mal cringe waren und manchmal mich fett zum lachen gebracht haben.
Ich meine, wer Visual Novel mit einer interessanten Detektiv-Story und einen Hauch Comedy mag. Kann ich das wärmsten empfehlen zu spielen.
Ach und ich fand den kleinen Bonus-Modus auch geil. Nur Liebe an die Zero Escape Reihe <3
Habe ich bei einer damaligen Freundin gespielt und müsste Sie auch nochmal über meinen Account spielen!
As always: Mistery, comedy and a bunch of weirdos you cna't really hate (with a few exceptions).
Add to that several 4th wall breakings here and there, and the fact that this game gives you 2 MCs, and you get a game that feels bigger than the first one.
面白かった！
A complete genuine travesty of storytelling. AI Nirvana Initiative is a jumbled mess of a story that will constantly have you guessing if the writer has dementia. There's alot I wanna go over, and i'm not an experienced reviewer so forgive me if it's not a well constructed review, but I promise atleast 85% more cohesion and 99.99999999% less sex jokes than this game.
This game is of course a sequel to the first AI Somnium Files which I also hated a fair bit, but the first game atleast had a couple of charming redeeming factors. This one is a complete slopfest that never once sparked a single flare of joy in my eyes. Every single new character, and really ♥♥♥♥♥♥ returning one, is a bland tasteless nothing burger of personality with a dash of sex joke for seasoning.
I guess i'll start with the general dialogue. It can be described succinctly as "sex joke LAUGH", or "I'm a pervert LAUGH" and you'd only be missing maybe a fifth of the rest of the dialogue. As for judging individual characters and their personalities, it's relatively fine, nothing egregious but nothing of real interest either. They're just basic, this robotics kid likes robotics, the comedy man makes jokes, they have their "arcs" but it's nothing special.
Now the main story, it's bad. Horrible. Atrocious. The general plot is stupid enough but there's so many plotholes, plot conviniences, and an incredibly horrible twist near the end that just throws away everything you've been told and experienced through game till then. There's literally no chance to guess most of the major twists in the game because it outright lies to you until the very end.
Besides that, there's also a lot of stupid plot points like when the game establishes that the servers are down and you can't send data to them, but then it also tells you that you're too far underground to connect to them so ♥♥♥♥ that plot point I guess. There's also "fight" cutscenes that play out like 2 children in a playground arguing. You keep getting knocked to the ground, all hope is lost, and then a completely random character will just jump in and the fights continues, and this will happen MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE SAME ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ FIGHT! There's even a machine from the previous game that makes a reappearence and it's incredibly vital, secretive tech that was discovered in the first game, and it's left in the SAME EXACT BUMASS RANDOM ASS ABANDONED BULDING WITH NOONE GUARDING IT! It's nothing but stupid ♥♥♥♥ like this the entire game, brainless writing with countless illogical contradictions.
Going back to the characters, almost none of them are likable to me. There's a guy who conceals critical police evidence who literally falls "in love" with a girl he met 5 minutes ago because she sang a really ♥♥♥♥♥♥ song in public that they'll repeat twice as often the the one in the first game. A "trivia master" who conceals critical police evidence and loves making """""""""funny""""""""" jokes that are actually literally random gibberish that makes no coherant sense. A "trivia master" who goes to high school AND who conceals critical police evidence.......noticing a pattern here. Yeah alot of the characters love concealing critical information and evidence for literally no reason in existence. Anyway, you also have: Perverted fanboy, Perverted fanboy who's also a Yakuza boss, Perverted bartender/fortuneteller, perverted investigator. Lovely.
I'm done talking about this game now, it's trash. I hate everyone who supports this garbage for elevating mediocrity.
