I've had this on my wishlist for a while and this is by far the cheapest I've seen it. Usually it goes on sale for $12-15. I'm a big fan of the anime so this might be the best time to finally try the game.

Steins;gate is incredible. I cried so many times throughout the story, like the main character I ran out of tears by the end.

True, elite uses anime scenes essentially, whereas the original has the better looking character portraits and more charming art style.

I tried the Elite one once upon a time, and IMO, the fatal flaw was that the bits they took from the anime weren't dubbed. I know to some that is a selling point, but I hate subs. I want to be able to focus on what's happening on screen and not be focused on reading some text. If you're like me, probably no point shelling out for the Elite version.

Not sure how closely the anime followed things in 0, but I remember that being something of a snore fest compared to the original anime which started out as a great comedy before taking a hard turn to a sort of sci-fi horror.

Edit: There are some bundles that will net you some minor extra savings. There's a Steins;Gate and 0 bundle that's $1.30 cheaper than buying individually, and a couple others.

Not so fun fact, when I was playing My Darling's Embrace, one of my relatives came over with their kid, Itaru was on screen and her kid said I looked like him 💀💀💀

VN first. It is the source material and is the most complete experience.
