If you are here because you are considering to play original Steins;Gate and Steins;Gate 0 together: I've read on the internet that many people suggest to play through original Steins;Gate and when you are almost at the end to switch to Steins;Gate 0, finish it and then go back and finish the original Steins;Gate. Let me tell you this: DON'T DO IT Steins;Gate 0 has been developed and released YEARS later the original Steins;Gate release, so the developers made this game for those who already know how the original Steins;Gate ends. Also, they are totally different in storytelling pace and it adds A LOT of stuff that could make you more confused about the story. So please, play ALL of original Steins;Gate, understand everything about it and only then go to Steins;Gate 0. About the game itself, Steins;Gate 0 is a really good VN but it doesn't reach the greatness of the original one. There are a lot of new characters, but except of Maho, none of them will leave you something. A lot of them are introduced and then all of a sudden disappear and become irrelevant. Also, despite the gameplay being less important (there are way less situation where is needed to interact with the phone trigger), the story telling is more confusing and there are some holes that are left to the reader's interpretation. There are of course really good and touchy moments, but they are less and are not as good as the original Steins;Gate. The only thing where Steins;Gate 0 surpass Steins;Gate is the main theme: it's really amazing and make you really feel the emotions of Okabe. The rest of the OST is also good, as the art style. In the end, despite not being as great as the original, Steins;Gate 0 is still a good VN and is mandatory to have a more clear and complete idea about the story. As for the original, it's highly recommended to install the CoZ patch for a better translation. Deceive yourself. Deceive the world. El. Psy. Kongroo.

I reviewed the first game & talked about how I played S;G and S;G0 in chronological order [tldr; got to almost the end of the first vn, paused it right before the true ending, then read the entirety of S;G0 before going back to finish S;G] ... so leaving a positive review here is needed, too. Doing it this way was awkward at first having to adjust switching back & forth between the games but after like 5 mins I stopped noticing. It was like a mind blowing experience playing them this way. I went in blind knowing nothing about either story and came out of it stunlocked, unsure how to ever replicate the feelings I had playing this story. My biggest take away from S;G0 was honestly the character growth Okabe goes through. Going back to S;G and experiencing the true ending FINALLY after witnessing his journey in S;G0 was so satisfying. Idk what to say man, I wish I could bleach it from my memory and do it blind all over again. El Psy Kongroo </3

This game made me realize I want an AI girlfriend Delivers some of the most emotional and memorable moments in the series. The story dives deep into Okabe’s grief and trauma, turning him from mad scientist to sad scientist in a way that adds real depth to his character. I was hooked the entire time. It’s a darker, more introspective experience, and in the end, it feels like an essential companion to the original Where? Where are the Japanese Shaman Girls, Lintahlo?

As much as I have no words for the first game, I have even less for this one. The sheer amount and weight of the emotions I have felt throughout playing this game can only be compared to certain periods in my real life, nothing else comes even close. This game is truly remarkable, truly. 12.5/10
