Besides, no matter how faithful an adaptation is, it's always nice to see something in its original format.

I only watched the first three episodes, and they basically glossed over the investigation and then left out a fair share of details while going over the crime. And considering those were the first two cases, and they only get more complicated... Yeah, I have to imagine the game is a lot better than the anime.

One plot thing that I can immediately recall that was entirely glossed over in the anime was actually kind of important.
Spoiler: DR1 Chapter 1
I think the anime was paced a bit too fast as well, since they compressed it down to only 12 episodes. That kind of made some culprits much easier to guess.
The greatest problem I recall having with it: there were times were the anime would go for over a minute without music. During a trial. A part in the game where there is more or less constant music to keep the momentum going. What were they thinking?

I got one of his Tantei Jinguuji Saburou novels a few days back and while I've only begun, it's at least written better (as in structure and language) than Dangaronpa/Zero (which was quite bad).

You're right, it was Celes, which actually makes it weirder that the anime chose not to include it.

Whats weird is that why cut it out in the first place. Her speech wasn't even that long to actually need to cut it out due to the time frame of the episodes.

Its probably just for gameplay but it still something fun to play say for example on train or bus rides.

No it hasn't. DR2 hasn't even been out in English for half a year.
It be a difference if the english release wasn't out yet but its still been plenty of time. Also why would you care if you already beat the game. Are you just starting just to have an arguement?

About a year ago, I visited a friend's place. That friend had another guest over at the time. For reasons I can't recall, our discussion turned to RPGs. Eventually the topic shifted to The Answer from Persona 3 FES, which I've yet to complete. This other guest asked if I wanted to know how the game ended, to which I clearly stated no, I'd find out on my own. He immediately went on to tell me about the ending as if I'd said yes.
There used to be this amusing little online card game called Sword Girls. I guess it's still going on in Japan or Korea or wherever it originated, but the English version of the game has been discontinued for some time. The English version released right around the time this anime series called Puella Magi Madoka Magica started picking up popularity in the States. I hadn't seen it yet but was certainly interested enough to check into it. Unfortunately, I lacked a good enough internet connection at the time to watch it online and preferred to wait until I could afford the DVDs anyway. This, of course, didn't matter at all to the people who used the chat function in Sword Girls to make jokes about the first major event that took place in that series. Those who've seen Madoka probably know what I'm talking about; for those who haven't, I won't say what it was here.
Way back in, oh, I'm not entirely sure, late '97, early '98 maybe? Anyway, my brother and I had just gotten a PlayStation and, being Final Fantasy fans since the original game on the NES, one of the first games (if not the first) we played on the new system was Final Fantasy VII. One of my brother's friends was over at the time to watch us play. After a short time, we reached the part in the game where Aeris joined the group, at which point my brother's friend was kind enough to advise us not to invest in her too much since she dies halfway through the game.
In case my point hasn't been made clear enough yet, I know all too well how it feels to look forward to a show, movie, game, what have you, only to have someone carelessly ruin the story or important plot points for you. I also know that, just because someone is a fan of something, that doesn't mean they're able to watch or play what they want as soon as it's released. Work, family issues, money problems, and any number of other obligations take precedence over entertainment. And believe it or not, I understand why most people who post or discuss spoilers do so, but being overzealous about something they like ends up hurting newcomers' first experiences.
Another personal story: My first experience with Higurashi was when it was printed in Yen Plus (basically Yen Press' version of Shonen Jump). I knew nothing about the series beforehand whatsoever.
Spoiler: Early spoilers
I'm sure not everyone feels the same way I do, but I know a lot of people DO. For those who don't, they're free to look up information on something and spoil themselves as much as they want. For those that do, it's not right that they lose out by having unwanted spoilers casually tossed into their faces.

Granted, the game is old and the ending of P3 is one that is so... well, I can't quite say well-known, but it's getting to the point that it's common knowledge in gaming. Like Aerith dying. You don't have to play the game to know what happens, you just kinda know what happens. (Like how I knew that in AJ, you had to look at a guy's sweaty armpits... I didn't know WHO they were talking about, but I eventually realized where I had to check)

Well, really, he could say the same about practically ANY character in Final Fantasy games, considering a character dying is so common place, it makes you feel like you shouldn't care about any of them. I think FF II and IV were the ones who went the most overboard of on the question "Which party member can we kill off, permanently or temporarily, today?"
Plus... THE GAME doesn't take a whole lot of time to make you care about Aerith, anyway, so it doesn't matter much.
And I do have to say one thing about spoilers people stumble upon: They always lack Context!
As above, I knew the "spoiler" of where to check for a nervous tick, but I didn't know which character to use it on, because overall I figured out easily enough where the nervous ticks were. When I was stuck on one, I remembered the "spoiler" and checked, bam, I was done. Another example, one of my mine, is I watched the awesome Princess Tutu AMV "Hall Om Mig". The video contains multiple spoilers about the series as it contains scenes of not just the first arc, but also the second arc of the series, where things are much darker. Did I watch the video? Yes. Did I know I was seeing spoilers? Well, maybe, not really. Did I make up my own context about these scenes? Yes. Was I ultimately proved wrong when I watched the series and finally got context to the scenes I had previously seen? Most definitely.
So while I do understand the annoyance of spoilers - I tried my best to avoid them when I read Half Prince (and, boy, did the final chapter kind of... disappoint me, along with its dumb "sequel") - I also will defend that reading a spoiler does not automatically give you the right context.
Take the Aerith example. So you are told that she dies. Well... this brings up questions, of course! How does she die? When does she die? Is it tragic? Is it done heroically? Is there a reason for her dying? Who kills her, if she is murdered? Knowing that she dies doesn't automatically tell you the answer to those questions as well, you just know, Okay, well , she is going to die. Even if you are told "dies halfway through the game", well you have a total of 3 Discs to play through in VII, so you know that it won't be too early.

It's not hard to spoil things nowadays.
But when it comes to SDR2, it has died down. (Even if it's been a little over 3 months.)
When I posted a Kill la Kill avatar, it was seen as a spoiler. I posted it again as an avatar 2 months later and no one cared about it.
You're bound to walk into a spoiler anywhere. Doesn't change the outcome of the series because you don't know when it's coming. You just know what a 2-second part looks like. You just gotta deal with it.

I keep my spoilers on tags so I see no problem with that and also like I mentioned before you played the game already so why do you care at all.

Anyway, you'd be surprised by how many people search the characters regardless if they finished something or not. I just find it funny how you're the only person I've seen complain about it and you already finished it.
