+NathanRomml SPOILEEEEEEEEEEEERS yes it did, at some point they show you that large tank controlled by sumika (cant remember the name xD) destroying the hive...if those are not spoilers :/ in fact even the cover of the game is a huge spoiler, until muv luv alternative you don't know that sumika is still "alive" yet they showed her in the cover, why? you go through unlimited thinking, yeah sumika is dead and probably kasumi has something to do with her, maybe she is sumika, their names, she wakes you up every day, etc etc...well nope fuck that, we are going to show her in the cover and spoil you the entire plot of alternative, she looks like a fucking robot now too so yeah... (there are 2 covers one with meiya and one with sumika)
+NathanRomml figuring something out and telling you directly is a different thing, there is a huge difference between them. You can watch the sixth sense and know that bruce willis is dead from the beginning of the film but it's different if the movie itself tells you, "well yeah he got shot and he is dead but who cares? you probably figured it out by yourself." this is what muv luv alt did with the cover and the OP trailer.
Rockmandash12 seems that Sumika well be fighting to or what since shes dressed in the Armored Suit i can only say that shes going to fight side by side with Takeru and Meyia + how is that Takeru can't realize that Kumisa is the anagram for Sumika and they are the same person only different as in different variable but same constant its liek Bioshock when its about Time Space and Parrarel Worlds and its nit really a parrarel worlds seems they don't inf act exist its an alternative time frame or temporal time that might occur some day even in Takeru's original world but later maybe 200y later so yeah this shit might happen no matter the worlds + a Universe were Earth won't exist is a stupid concept for the Parrarel Worlds Chain Concept since the concept is about that each worlds is chained one to another and if one dissapears each of the others well dissapear because the events well turn to be the same at one point or another and there is no such thing a mother universe that made the other ones its an infinte loop chain time it self is written as a script before its not actually dictated by changes we do thats just a horrible concept its just as the concept of Deus Ex Machima from Mirrai Nikki in wich all parrarel worlds are in fact the same no changes and that the same events well occur but it have an error if you come from Universe A to B and start interfering and might destroy both Universes and even cause a chainr eaction since in Mirai Nikki Deuses from all the Universes planned with a delayed time each a game to choose a new God since Deus was dieng but Deus was not really the ultimate God it was described that he was mantainig a ballance so time and reality wont be destroyed and also he proclaimed he was not immortal making him not the 1st God at all overall the concept brought in Muv-Luv is a bitt garbage because there is no way you cannot interfere in another Universe people can see you some one can actually ask you were is a shop and so on only talking he did knowledged you exist in 1st place and in hes subcouncious he registers you as "real" so yeah Muv-Luv had only a derivated theory so it sounds as Yuuko was thinking at it + there is no explenation by now how Tekeru's will brought him there in 1st place i bet Yuuko send him there some how from hes world to the Unlimited one then some how Yuuko send him back in time using the so called will excuse ....
drewsuismclovin I'm not into guro at all, but quite frankly that scene being so gruesome is what made it so impactful. Up until that point, everything was going too well. Takeru seemed invincible. Even after his freak out he came away unscathed with none of his comrades dying. Then the inspirational speech....then the obv blood that meant she'd been done in...then the face, which completely takes down any guard you had going...and you knew instantly shit was going down in a major way. I feel the same way about the 00 scene, though they could def cut that down to about 1/3rd of the length.
the great VN are the ones without hentai ... MuvLuv and Steins Gate and Chaos Head are good examples + many others i found quit allot of them on Eroge.com and did not had nude and porn but had gr8 story
