I assume spoilers are fine for a thread like this, considering discussing changes implies we know the story to change.

I'd like my girl Mikan to survive of course, but at the very least 3-2 needs some major changes. If they're gonna keep Despair Disease, at get rid of the "remembering disease". Absolutely awful motive, can make literally any of them a murderer through sheer chance and takes away their agency, which is supposed to be part of the point of these killing games.

I would personally spoiler tag these just in case but also I feel like in SDR2 Monokuma is just more aggressive than in the first game, which I guess makes sense because of the grand plan of everything but let's not forget Case 4 basically goes "either you kill someone or everyone dies" which would go against the concept of the game as well.

Let's be real, if no one killed anyone, was Monokuma really going to let them starve to death? I highly doubt it, there's a difference between creating a high stress situation and bluffing and outright rewriting a character into a killer.

I'M SO HYYYYYYPED!!!!!!!!!! As for changes I'd like to see?
CHANGES IN THE MIKAN 'FAN SERVICE' !!!!!!!!!
I love Mikan so much but I was almost put off by her just for all of the pantie shots, I don't think I need much explanation for why seeing a minors upskirt shots is uncomfortable, even if she's 'technically' an adult her avatar is a teen.
IBUKI SONGS!!!!!!!!!
I love the audio for "From Me To You!" It's in my playlist it's that good!!!! I'd love to have another banger from her! Like, maybe.... "Ballad To Robot Mage Battle Showdowns" or something even crazier than that.
THICKUYA!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE THICKUYA SO MUCH SO MUCH WASTED POTENTIAL I'M SO PASIONATE ABOUT THICKUYA!!!!!!!!!!!
Also, I'd like to apologize real quick, *Pulls out item 083. Two-Sided Ukulele*
I did not like Chiakis characterization within her free time events.
It feels awkward and stilted in some ways, not to mention if Chiaki is meant to be a AI formed from the memories of the entire class + Hajime then she should know where milk comes from and not be so... like, inept in human interactions? Unless that means that an entire high school girl was that ill informed in how the world works?? Like, seriously, she shouldn't be weirdly uninformed and unaware of the world around her to the point Hajime has to explain that milk comes from cows and what Girls Day is.
So I'd love some justice for Chiaki in her characterization in the revamp!
Speaking of revisions...
HANG MANS GAMBIT
I personally loved the OG Hang Mans Gambit from Trigger Happy Havoc, all the revised and 2.O's made me a liiiiiiiittle bit sad because of how much I loved the OG

Monokuma needed some of them alive for their plan to work, so I doubt they would have let them all die, but either way you can't deny monokuma was a lot more bloodthirsty with the "motivations" behind the killings in 2 compared to 1

Pass
This game was perfect,why ruin it with different ways this time
I swear they are just re-using old games instead of making new ones
First persona remakes and now danganronpa
Rip creativity

The new route is apparently completely different, and the new route was the focus and reason behind the remake, so its a bit different from P3R which just remade the story of P3.

I do wonder why they chose to do the new route in general, instead of a fourth game, but my guess is that the setting and characters of 2 just make it prime for an alternative take compared to retconning 3 or making another universe entirely like V3

So what,they just gonna kill off other characters now and change the plot of who these students are and who Hajime really is.
Should have just made 4th game given there are 53 danganronpa's by canon

They confirmed the new route will have different murders with different victims and different trials so yeah, not too far off.
Also V3 is in a different universe from the Hope's Peak continuity, so the idea of doing another different universe isn't too crazy. Its another option they could have done

This is just gonna confuse the fans even more when they don't know which game to play after first game and then we will have to explain which is canon and which is what if

as for v3-spoilers in black text ahead
where do they say v3 is in another universe? It's only been revealed that 1-2 games and despair girls have been staged as a show in society and none of it was real though there is a theory that reveal is also fake due to main one behind it being into...well you know by their ultimate and they could have just messed with them to keep them in there

I don't think it'll be that complicated, but I've seen fans over-complicate things on their own so maybe I'll be wrong.
How many fanbases go "omg its so confusing" and it's not that bad

As for V3 being in another universe, the Danganronpa 3 anime is the canonical end for Hopes Peak's series, and there was a famitsu article years ago where they explicitly state V3 was it's own thing, which is also why it's called New Danganronpa V3. The New was to signify it being a new thing disconnected from the previous entries.
