Maybe putting the timeline part in a spoiler tags is best in case someone hasn't played the first two games. Anyway, that's probably it. But a strange change to make since the rules say that everyone except for three have to die. So I don't see why you'd want to include more than three characters who were essential to the ZE2 events. We already know of one person who survives here. But I assumed the two unknown people would be the obvious ones, before we now found out that there are more people here who will be alive during the events of ZE2. Then again, just by having Junpei here would alter the events of ZE2, unless they perhaps wipe his memories afterwards, or something.

Junpei was always part of the experiment, as I recall, so his presence isn't a surprise. And including characters who appear in the sequel(?) isn't really a problem because 1) the purpose of this game is explicitly to make sure VLR never happens, and 2) alternate timelines are this series' thing!
It's gonna suck when Sigma goes cyborg though. I kinda like Sigma, stupid as he is...
