In your opinion, which is better, Danganronpa 1 or 2? Why?
Try to do this without spoilers but I'm curious what people think.

I just beat 1 and and about to start 2. Which one do you think is better?

I see DR1 criticized for being simple, but that's because DR1 actually somewhat make sense and is relatively realistic. The rather outlandish final chapter can be ignored as just a necessary setting, while in the later DRs the outlandish setting is actually part of the plot and thus cannot be ignored. DR1 also attempted to approach the cases in a realistic way, and it's actually very hard for a single person to outwit the collective expertise of everyone else who's trying to save themselves. Even the smartest characters in DR1, namely Byakuya and Kyoko, would have an awfully hard time successfully getting away with a murder. In fact, they're likely to fail spectacularly given both are trusted by almost nobody in the entire story. Sure, DR1 pulls the usual detective manga tricks, but there's generally no impossible reveal because people in DR1 commits their crime in relatively believable methods and thus do get caught rather easily when everyone else is trying to bring you down due to the rules.

At any rate, the best thing of DR1 compared to not just DR2 but pretty much anything after it is that DR1 is a story about characters while the latter games are generally games about an impossible setting and character quirks. Characters and their quirks are not the same. Hina is forever tied with donuts, but what makes Hina unique is not because she likes donuts. She's typical sunny girl and donuts just happen to be her favorite thing while she's spreading that sunshine. In the later games, if a character like Hina exists, the focus would be reversed. That is, a later version of Hina would have the focus to be donuts and her sunshine is accidental effect from donuts. Every DR1 character easily falls into predefined, typical tropes, but that didn't define who they are. This is very different from the later installments where the character's trope is exactly who they are.

They both have their strengths, but overall I prefer DR2.

I think DR1 had a better cast of characters for the most part. I didn't dislike anyone in DR2, but I was pretty indifferent towards most of them. I liked (nearly) the entire cast of DR1. Although, the few that I liked in DR2 I *really* liked.

Some of the trials in DR1 were annoying in the sense that I knew the contradiction, but the correct way of *presenting* it was a bit obscure. I never felt that way in DR2. Although a couple of the puzzles in DR2 seemed a bit unfair logically, I think DR2's trials were better.

DR2's minigames were more fun in my opinion. I even think the Improved Hangman thing was fine, except for that obnoxious "Cause of Death" one in case 5.

I prefer the story of DR2. The problem with DR1 is that you play as a side character. Makoto only has his moment in the spotlight right at the very end - and even then it feels a bit contrived. I seriously don't understand why they didn't just make Kyoko the protagonist (or at least swap Makoto and Kyoko's roles).
DR2 kind of has that problem as well, but to a much smaller extent. Hajime always seems to be guided along by Nagito and Chiaki but it still feels as if he's a pivotal part of the trials (for the most part, at least). And the narrative itself has a much better twist in my opinion.

1. It concentrated on the story more instead of adding excuses for sexy fan service. Older Japanese game > New generally for that reason alone.

I'd say dangan2.. from storywise I like both the same but dangan2 had more wtf moments in terms of plottwists AND features more bonuscontent.. the novel, usami and the classroom stuff which kinda sealed this.

dangan1 had however had the more fun trialgames i'd say - i did not rly like the improved hangman for example (even though the first one was too easy) - dangan2 had more trialgames which most news were cool aswell

Who is hyped about the remaster of 1 & 2 for console???

I'm about halfway done with the sequel and I'd have to say the first one is better. There are obvious mechanics that have been improved which I appreciate but the fanservice is entirely unnecessary and many of the twists aren't really twists, they just come out of nowhere. I never felt that things didn't make sense with the first game, can't say that with the sequel.

For me I'd have to say 2, but they're both especially amazing. The characters in 1 had better chemistry with each other(not saying the cast in 2 sucked) but 2 is an overall improvement in most aspects except for Rebuttal Showdown and Hangman's Gambit(♥♥♥♥ that ♥♥♥♥).

well I prefer characters from 2nd one, but animetion of punishment in 1st game looks much better. Also the ibea of islands I love more. About murders..both are good fo me. Well I`m thinking that second one is better. (sorry for mistakes (If there`s any), english isn`t my first language)

I thouroughly enjoyed the first game a lot more than this one so far... the over all atmosphere of the second throws me off a bit, and the little but completely unessecary fan-service completely ruins the whole setting and mood for me with the dynamic of the story, I do like some of the lighthearted-ness the game has but it seems like theres a lof of unessecity in this game. also rebuttle showdowns can go die in a fire.. But overall i really enjoy this game as well but i gotta say i had a more solid experience with the first game.

DR1. Better setting and snappier writing. I also thought that the game picked up right from the get-go, whereas DR2 struggled to keep up with DR1 until case 3 (and ultimately, nothing in DR2 was able to quite surpass the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ quotient set in DR1's first chapter).

Also, DR1 doesn't have Hiyoko. ez pz

I'm not 100% through Trial 2 yet and I want to strangle Hiyoko AND Nagito. Hiyoko is worthless and Nagito so far is just a plot device and antithesis of Makoto.

I do like Hajime also, but Hajime and Makoto both have different strengths imo.
