[Game] Umineko no Naku Koro ni - Ep. 3 Banquet of the golden witch

[Blue-kun]

Spoiler for fences:

Well, my memory might be failing me, but I don't remember any sort of description about the fence on the Ushiromiya's mansion. On the other hand I'm pretty sure he said that the fence around the mansion where Beato used to live was of a considerable height, so maybe you're confusing both?

That or my memory completely blows.

Spoiler for Rosa:

That'd certainly be funny if the wind blew her over and made her hit the fence and die. xD

Spoiler for rosa+fence:

楼座と真里亞の二人は他殺です。 (Spoken by Ronove)
(Both Rosa and Maria were killed by another person.)

Well, it certainly would be hilarious, but I don't think the wind would count for another person! :v

[Peaches]

Spoiler for rosa+wind:

Maybe Rosa doesn't weigh a lot, and then the wind lifted her on a magical flying ride~ Then she fell down to her doom and died. :3

Spoiler for Episode 3 2nd twilight:

Well... despite what we see in movies and anime lifting up a person is not that easy. I don't think Rosa weights less than 50 kg, try to lift 50kg above your head! Only a strong man or a woman on steroid could do that.

Spoiler for Ep3 2nd twilight:

I think that in one of the episodes it said that Gohda is strong...(Maybe it was Ep 2, but I am not sure)...so maybe he was able to do it...

Yeah...but he is dead.
金蔵、源次、紗音、嘉音、郷田、熊沢の６人は死亡している！
(Kinzo, Genji, Shannon, Kanon, Gohda, and Kumasawa, 6 people in total are dead!)

[Jan-Poo]

Yeah after the first episode i strongly suspected Gohda and one of the reason was the fact he is actually strong enough to move corpses with relatively ease. However the truth is certainly more complex than that.

Anyway if i was Battler i'd definitely ask Beatrice to state in red that everyone in the island is exactly what they are claiming to be. Should she refuse, Battler could easily uses the "impostor" theory to get around all those annoying red truths.

Spoiler:

Hmmm... that's only 110lbs, a man wouldn't have to be that strong to be able to lift that... nor would a woman need to be on steroids. O.o

Either way I think she weighs more than that as well... not that it matters anyway since it was confirmed that she and Maria were killed by other people. ^^;

I wonder what the 'multiple deaths' symbolize in the story... I'm not 100% sold on it just being shown to show how cruel Eva-Beatrice is...

Spoiler for Second Twilight:

I have to ask - what kind of fence was it exactly? And were we told what position she was in? If it was like a small side fence along the garden beds, with points on them, then it wouldn't be too hard at all to drag Rosa there and stab her with it. Think about it this way - what if Rosa was knocked out and THEN killed?

Example: Killer comes in and sees Rosa and Maria. They knock out Rosa somehow and Maria notices this and screams. Then the killer, wanting to shush Maria, takes their hands over her throat and chokes her to death. Since Rosa is still out they just drag her body to the sharp fence around the garden bed and stab her head through it.

I'm pretty sure it was a garden bed fence though, since Battler brought up a small possibility that Rosa slipped and fell.

Spoiler for need for strength:

As far as the first twilight goes, there were several hours available, and the killer probably could probably have gotten a wheelbarrow from the shed. Maria and Kumasawa are out, but I think anybody could have done it. In the absence of a wheelbarrow, the mover could have placed the body on a plastic sheet and dragged it.

I don't think there are any other bodies moved in the first or third episode, but there are a few moved in episode 2.

[Peaches]

I haven't really gotten to play episode 3, can anyone show me maybe how to get the game somehow. o.o;;

[Klashikari]

The readme files have intructions where to buy it.
And no, don't ask any other method, or I think someone will be staked by Mammon.

[Peaches]

Where exactly are the readme files? The any other method thing also makes me questions to whole BitTorrent thing aswell... ^^;

[Marion]

Look under 'Importers' here. You can buy it from either Himeya or Palet, securely. I personally like Himeya but whatever you feel is most convenient.

[Klashikari]

Additionally, patch files have readme doc that show the usual process as well.
And obviously, talking about download (except episode 1) and such is taboo, both by our team and animesuki staff.

[Peaches]

Does importing take a long time? I also heard that shipping overseas is expensive. ^^;

[Klashikari]

usually speaking, it takes 3-5 business days for the shipping, BUT that estimation is easily overwhelmed by country customs which depends of your country, likewise.
it usually doesn't take more than 2 weeks, unless some major issues appear. But since the package has a track number, you always know where it is.

As for the price, that depends how you qualify "expensive".
$19-20 for shipping might be severely hefty for most people (that's like 2/3 of the price of the game itself), but it becomes usual for seasoned importers (except... say, Valdra-chan? ) or when you are buying tons of things in one shot.

[Peaches]

It sounds like a lot for it... ^^;

[Jan-Poo]

Yeah but if you consider that the price of the game itself is low the "whole package" only costs like an average PC game.

The problem comes for the next arc, i'm not so sure i'm gonna pay that amount of money for ep5 ep6 and ep7 when ep8 will probably include all the four of them.

Yet i dunno if i can handle to wait untill 2011 for that...

mmm... that's only 110lbs, a man wouldn't have to be that strong to be able to lift that... nor would a woman need to be on steroids. O.o

I speciefid above the head. Ask your male friends to lift a girl around that weight until their hands get above their heads, you'll be surprised to see that very few of them will be able to. (no cheating! they can't get away by lowering their own body and head)

EDIT:
Oh right, noone has mentioned it, but what you actually need to buy is episode4, it includes ep1 ep2 and ep3.
