History YMMV / VirtuesLastReward

** Considering that [[spoiler:Dio was also infected with the Radical-6 to keep pace with the other players, it is likely that the timers were adjusted accordingly]]. Or else that [[spoiler:the bombs were tampered with by Akane after placing Dio in the AB Room to adjust for their altered perceptions]].

* {{Woolseyism}}: The game's Japanese title was generally translated as ''Good People Die'', but it also could be read as ''I Want To Be a Good Person''. To preserve this double meaning, the English title was changed to ''Virtue's Last Reward'' to play off the idea of virtue being its own reward and the phrase "gone to his last reward" (death). The scenario writer liked it so much he had the game's main theme on the soundtrack renamed to "Virtue's Last Reward".

** [[spoiler: Learning that the dead old woman is akane.]]

* HarsherInHindsight: [[spoiler: In a lot of the bad endings, someone manages to escape and then promises to contact the police to come and save everyone else left behind. The problem is, as you play through all the routes you gradually learn that the world is now ''post-apocalypse''...as Tenmyouji (who knows about the Radical-6 pandemic) snarks in his own first bad ending, let's hope there's someone left out there ''to'' contact for help...]]

* NightmareFuel: The Clover Ending. [[spoiler:Suddenly everyone in the warehouse is gone. When you find most of them, it's as a heap of dead bodies. Then Sigma's own Radical-6 kicks in and he slits his own throat with a used scalpel. Have fun sleeping.]]
** [[spoiler: Luna]] appearing out of nowhere at the AB room during [[spoiler:Luna]]'s Path, especially when considering that [[spoiler: you've only just found out that she is a GAULEM and was thought to have be killed by Clover]]. Slightly migated later on as [[spoiler: despite Luna being a robot, she still has no intentions of hurting anyone.]]

* PlotHolt: [[spoiler:Wouldn't the four bombs have been counting down in 30 minutes of ''real time'' instead of ''Radical-6'' time, thus making it impossible for Sigma and Phi to deactivate them?]]

* PlayerPunch: The game definitely makes you feel like a jerk any time you choose "betray", but it's especially bad if the opponent is [[spoiler: Luna]] or [[spoiler: a comatose Quark.]]

-> [[spoiler: '''Luna''']]: [[spoiler: I watched six people die and did nothing. I deserve this.]]
-> [[spoiler: '''Sigma''']]: [[spoiler: No! No you don't! Even if you ''had'' done something, you would have been killed anyway! You can't blame yourself! You did what you could, you're not wrong! The game is what's wrong! Forcing you to watch your friends die is what's wrong!]]
-> [[spoiler: '''Luna''']]: [[spoiler: Oh Sigma... Thank you. I'm... I'm really glad I met you... At least I get to die in your arms...]]

* TheUntwist: [[spoiler:Dio is so repugnant that finding out he's the antagonist of the scenario is...really surprising because it's so unsurprising. You keep expecting him to have some sort of hidden redeeming value. Nope. He doesn't. He really is as bad as he appears to be, and then some.]]

* AndTheFandomRejoiced: The announcement of the American release was met very, VERY well.
** Initially, there was no planned release for Europe (just like the first game) so you can imagine the surprise European fans had when Zero Escape has been confirmed for a November release.
