![]() Rather than one linear story, each route is laid out as sets of separate scenarios. I found the layout of the stories rather interesting. There are three parts to every route: Dark, Maniac and Ecstasy, each consisting of 10 chapters, a prologue and an epilogue, after which the decisions you make will lead to one of three endings. Once you have completed one of their routes, the other three brothers (Reiji, Shuu and Subaru) will be unlocked. After you complete the prologue, you can first pick one of the Sakamaki triplets (Ayato, Kanato or Laito). It consists of visual novel sections where you are presented with choices that can change the outcome of the game. Sometimes this section comes across as a little unnecessary, but for me I always think it’s worth discussing how a game works.įor the most part, DiaLovers works like any other otome game. ![]() So here my journey started, for the most part blind to the game I was going to play. When I got my bonus in the summer, I finally bought it from PlayAsia: Diabolik Lovers: Haunted Dark Bridal – Limited V Edition’. However I can say the intrigue of the debate around this game and plot dragged me in- a franchise that created such polar opinions definitely was worth playing. The same can be said for Diabolik Lovers – I avoided anymore than the vague premise of it, and dodged as much information as I could. Its something I’ve always experienced, and gaming is no different, so you will rarely catch me watching game-based anime. I play a lot of visual novel games, so for me it’s the same principle of books vs movies – the original is always better. I’m very much a person who will play the game rather than watch the anime, and this is something that I have done throughout my gaming history, I’m actually very stubborn about it. ‘Diabolik Wife Beaters’, ‘Yui is a weak MC’, ‘the game is better’ – the usual general comments was all I had to go on. So before I delve into the game itself, I wanted you all to know how I hit this low point in my life (jk!) I’d heard various things about Diabolik Lovers in general for a couple of years before I finally got around to buying it.
