Dude i just started the game and i cant get past the road of despair BS.

[Sand]

this is really ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ difficult and i might have just wasted 15 dollars on a game ill never beat. Is there any way to make it easier??

[Blue_Glasses]

Road of despair doesn't really matter in the game. You can progress through the story after failing it 3 times

[haley_jin]

Even if you complete the road to despair, you won't actually escape. just fail 3 times and you'll be able to progress.

here's a link for trial help bc if you think that minigame is hard these are gonna be even harder:

(btw some of the questions/answers are out of order)

You're destined to lose Road of Despair... even if you DO manage to "beat" it, you reach a bad ending and have to go back to your last save or jump to the cut-scene where all of the characters are shown giving up on trying to escape. Just let yourself die and get to the cut-scene quicker so you can go forward in the plot. I hope that this helps.

Its scripted so that you CANT beat it. It's supposed to be a lesson from Monokuma that you can't escape.

[Bababooey Bababooey]

It's supposed to be like that. It's not meant to be beaten, just die 3 times and it'll progress the story.

As others have said, you're not actually meant to beat it, but if you do beat it you'll get 100 monocoins (probably not worth it in the long run, but I haven't played enough of the game to actually see if this is so) and an exclusive theme for your monopad, which honestly was the driving point of beating it for me at least. There's no achievement for it which makes me kinda sad, but in any case, I wish you luck if you do decide to pursue this glitchfest of a minigame.

I would argue that Death Road of Despair is significantly harder than the trials. At least you can brute force your way through the trials or use skills if you get stuck.

Don't try it unless you really want to get 100% completion because it can take a long time to get each move into your muscle memory. I remember one guy saying it took him 14 hours to get to the end the first time and two more hours to do it a second time. Just have fun with the story and don't get caught up on the minigame.

You luckily don't need to beat it. unless you want a special ending and some coins which I can tell you are defenitely NOT worth it after doing it myself. don't do it just fail three times and continue the normal story.

[Asteria]

death road of despair is meant to be failed in chapter 1, just lose twice and you can progress with the story. plus, you can change class trial difficulty at will before starting a trial

[karola]

Welp, you can change difficulty before starting class trial, or in beginning of the game :p

[StephanFS]

You're not supposed to beat it at the beginning of the game. Like everyone said it here, it's an optional challenge that only gives you a theme for the Monopad, although I won't recommend beating the game 100% or getting all achievements for a lot of reasons. (this is coming from someone who beat the Vita version)

Kinda minor spoiler, but you will have to play it again later for story reasons, but the difficulty is drastically reduced.
