VN General Thread

Premature new threads general

>>12706155
Premature? Previous thread is already in the 8th page and the last post was 5 hours ago.

What's your point?

How much money you're planning to spent for Grisaia kickstarter /jp/ ? Get your pocket ready

>>12706301
None. Why would I when I have already read them?

>>12706301
Rakuen came out last year's summer. Why would anyone spend money on it now?

I'm just waiting for part II of the Mahou Michiru series. I think it's coming in December?

>>12706301
Zero. Finished rakuen long time ago, no reason to donate anything to jewac and EOP "community".

Wtf is wrong with all of you? You dont want to support vn industry in the west?

>>12706482
>vn industry
>west
There's no such thing as "vn industry in the west".
I support developers by buying original games. Supporting various jewacs is pointless.

>>12706482
No. Why would I care about translations?

>>12706509
>>12706526
There is VN induatey in the west. Just look at Clannad kickstarter. And with more translation vn will be more popular right? If vn become more popular the industry will vastly improve

>>12706535
no

>>12706535
they just took away the porn. It's not a good thing at all.

>>12706543
I care

>>12706566
Porn is holding back eroge anyway

>>12706535
Vns are something that should stay in Japan.

So more shitposters who intentionally come to shit up unrelated threads despite their own being on first page? Uh, suuuure man, totally good thing to donate your money for.

No thanks.

>>12706576

>>12706574
Why ? You are not in japan right?Then why do you read vn?

>>12706571
>Porn is holding back eroge anyway

explain yourself.

I do enjoy read VN witouth porn, but I don't see the reason to cut it off. The porn it's like the icing in a cake, it's good but with that it's better.

>>12706594
>Why ? You are not in japan right?Then why do you read vn?

What?
The last thing I want is visual novels being butchered when it gets translated. The less popular it gets in the west the better considering the fact that means it will also attract more faggot EOP shitposters.

You do have the illness of quoting shit no one above you said.

>>12706962
Its there, >>12698919, but our dear autist-"oldfag" is intentionally shitposting here. Its not first time he's doing this, he's just sorrow that he's only one who still couldn't learn japanese after so many years and does this as "revenge".

I long for the day when we can just make separate VNs and not forced into tiny generals...

>>12706999
So fucking do it then. Nobody is stopping you. You willingly forced yourself into this general.

>Bawww why isn't there a thread for the VN i'm reading currently?!
Because YOU didn't make it, yet.

>>12707011
Jeez, okay, I will try to make it next time.

>>12706686
It was pretty funny I thought and very lewd.
Only major issues I had with it were H scene pacing.

>>12706482
I agree with >>12706509 that there is no real industry in the west.

Mostly, the entire eroge genre is pretty niche. I'm a huge fan of the community both here and in Japan when it isn't spouting hatred, but its very small nevertheless.

However, I'm really not against funded, formal translations done on quality titles. Mostly because, even though translations can't ever match or accurately convey the source material since its an adaptation, I don't see the need to deliberately alienate people trying to get involved in the medium. Or at least shut people down and spew hate just because they don't speak Japanese. If they're cool that is. I acknowledge entirely that the /v/ side of the community can be ridiculously obnoxious, but I try to take that on a case by case instance.

Of course >>12701975 nailed it. Maybe this thread is naturally exclusive because we have so many more titles and genres to talk about.

My main complaint though, is that I wish people would actually buy more titles to support the industry instead of just playing their games, but at the same time imports are an expensive hobby. I myself put 30 into Clannad for the tapestry and passed news of the release to a few friends, since that's a title I really want everyone to play. Think that its one of the baseline rites of passage to get into the medium.

Currently playing Koisora+FD. God, Hisashi is one of the best bro character ever. At first i thought he's just another "ドバカ変態" type which
its existence is nothing better than comic relief but he's actually more than that. Definetely one of the best charage i've ever played, I wonder why Koisora is not included in any recommenation chart.

>>12706686
It was enjoyable, but nothing amazing.

I just finished Cartagra.

Could someone tell me how Cartagra is related to Kara no Shoujo? I wouldn't mind spoilers.

What rating would you guys give to FSN? Is it one of your favorite VN?

>>12706686
Not great, but not bad. Common route is kinda fun and enjoyable, but the heroine routes are nothing but h-scenes. As I said in last thread, they should make something between fucking h-scenes, like ichaicha time or a date or something else. 10 h-scenes in 3 hours is nothing but pain.

>>12707277
Same 'setting', shares characters, like MC and Kizuna, also the cult is used for KnS2.

>>12707230
>I wonder why Koisora is not included in any recommenation chart.
I thought the common route lasted way longer than it should have, and that the actual routes were pretty disappointing. It was fun at first, but it just got tiring.

十六夜のフォルトゥーナ has strangely high ratings so I thought of giving it a try; nothing much to say for now but I like the soundtrack

>>12707730
Oh yeah, I forgot about that game. I played the trial and I remember it giving off distinct Air vibes. I intended to play it when it was released but never got around to it.

This scene in Nanairo Reincarnation was extremely powerful, to the point where it even brought a few tears to my eyes. This kind of heartfelt and meaningful drama is quite rare. I really wasn't expecting this from an imprint of a studio like Silky's.

>>12708464
It's Silky's Plus

just started reading 晴のちきっと菜の花びより, only a few hours in, seems alright.

I recently finished Asairo. It was one of the best things I've ever read, and one of the few things I can say actually lived up to my expectations. Shuumon is a fantastic writer.

>>12707339
Those toes look atrocious. Reminds me somehow of Fred Flintstone.

This thread reminded me about it, so I'm finally looking into Nanairo Reincarnation. It looks pretty good, there's something about the art in particular that really appeals to me...

Is there any specific order I should follow with the routes?

Is 秘女一夜 available anywhere? Couldn't even find it on Clubbox, and that's usually my last resort.

>>12707730
I dropped it. Got bored halfway through the common route. Maybe it gets better later on?

>>12707230
Koisora is great, especially if you like comedy. I get the impression a lot people don't like comedy games though.

>>12706686
I personally really liked it. Worth playing if you like "perfect" protagonists in a moe/comedy setting.

Hey /jp/, I was wondering if you could help me. I've started translating Oiran Rouge. It's a stylish Edo-era brothel sim. I've got most of the UI and menus translated already, but then I realized that I didn't know how to actually edit the game files. So for the past 18 hours I've been trying to open these .xfl files with various adobe programs and absolutely nothing is working. It's getting pretty frustrating.
Could somebody help me with this shit? This game is really cool and I don't want my, well, two days of translation work going down the tube for nothing.

>>12708835
You should probably ask this in the translation thread over here >>12698919

>>12708835
As here
>>12698919
Pretty sure there are people who know how to hack script files.

>>12708835
Don't go to >>12698919, they'll hijack your translation. Try going to IRC, the 4chan channels can help you out. >>12698919 is for tlwiki fags.

>>12708848
>>12708849
>>12708860
How conflicting. Thanks for the advice, though. I might as well post my plight to the other thread. I knew there was usually a TL thread hovering around, but I couldn't find it in the catalog. Whoops.

>>12708860
>hijack

What does that mean? They copy it and release it on their own? And if yes, where is the problem? Saves him lots of work.

>>12708883
They will tell him truth about his chances of ever completing anything and he will give up in despair.

I can't into moon. Anything similar to Majikoi that is translated I could read? I'm also into more deep stuff but whatever is being / completely translated and isn't shit would be nice. I'm starting to get into VN now.

Finished ランス９, I thought it was a pretty good eroge despite the mandatory RPG gameplay elements being a bit weak but by no means terrible.
It sort of rekindled my enjoyment of the series from way back playing the English translation of Sengoku Rance with its good storytelling and a surprisingly likable male cast in a game where banging girls is such a major aspect.

>>12708883
>>12708904
WELL WHAT'DYA KNOW
>>12708919

I've heard about text hooking programs and a machine translator..

A few questions if I may ask.. To read eroge in japanese using these tools, what level of knowledge on the language do I need to know? (i.e. beginner, intermediate, expert)..

Could I get a few opinions on 11eyes? I feel like a playing a battle eroge after my Denpa sweep this month. I keep on seeing chuuni show up in the EGS reviews, which is cool by me, I liked Dies Irae, but I can't get into it if it doesn't have awesome power speeches thanks to Masada.

On that note, does anyone have recommendations for some awesome action/battle eroge that are maybe a bit underplayed? It's really the dialogue and characters, hero or villain, that I look for in these games.

Minor spoilers are cool, but please avoid plot spoilers.

my soundcard drivers got messed up and are no longer supported on the website and the jack for my onboard sound is being so stupid

no more vn's for this sad soul, my life is over

>Sekien no Inganock is much better in its English version than it is in the Japanese one

Is this true /jp/? Someone from fuwanovel said this and he supposed to be a respectable eroge player.

>>12709366
>being respected as an eroge player

didnt kno this was possible

>>12709366
>Someone from fuwanovel

This is really all you need to know.

No, it's not better. In fact, Ixrec ruined the whole writing style of the game with his bland prose.

>>12709366

>respectable eroge player.

What?

>>12709400
>>12709380
Isn't someone like Moogy considered as respectable eroge player?

>>12709430
According to his cronies that hang out here, yeah. Glad he stopped translating shit because his work was terrible as fuck.

>>12709430
lol, no. Though at least Moogy knows Japanese, unlike Fuwanovel morons.

>>12709366

No, the "translation" is a disaster and completely failed to convey the original writing style, which is quite nice considering it's Sakurai. That is not a good thing, it is worse in every conceivable way.

>>12709446
moogy pls

>>12709400
>>12709449
>>12709446
Whoa, so i guess this Clephas guy is lying about how he know japanese then? I thought it was weird that he finished 50 hours long vn in few days. Why would i waste my time to read his review all of this time..

>>12709489
>I thought it was weird that he finished 50 hours long vn in few days.

That's easy to do if you have no job or commitments

>>12709449
Writing style is just an illusion inside non-EOP heads, it's all the same shit.

>>12709494
I don't think it's possible if you doing it without Ctrl.

>>12709489
He's still using text hookers even for simple kana despite claiming to reading hundreds of VNs over several years. Why would anyone take him seriously?

>>12709516
Depends, how long is a few days? 2-3? 3-4? People also have different reading speeds and such, so it's quite possible. That's not even factoring in skipping sleep to get more time to read

>>12707200
I ain't buying shit unless they release a japanese version that doesn't say "Japan Sales Only" in it.

If they don't want my patronage, I'm not gonna give it.

>>12709271
I haven't played 11eyes but I've played 3days and it was pretty shit. It had potential to be good but wasted it all. I hear Lass is all round bad.

>>12709516
Back when I was an EOP I read F/SN for the first time in three days and I got the majority of bad ends.
I didn't even know what the control key was yet.

>>12707713
Yeah, the common route is insanely long. But i think it redeemed itself since the plot is actually moving.
>>12708803
I don't consider koisora a comedy game but comedy is certainly one of its strong point
>I get the impression a lot people don't like comedy games though..
I think lots of people here liked Hitoren and Ren'ai0 so i'm not sure what are you talking about.

>>12709489
Being on Fuwanovel should be enough to doubt his credibility. That statement is ridiculous. I haven't read Ignanock and probably never will but there is no way in hell an english/translated version would be better than japanese version in any way.Once you start to grasp japanese you will realize there will be so many things that will be lost in translation when japanese converted to english.

>>12709611
It's more like it's not possible unless you don't listen to the audio. Which, if you were an EOP, you probably were not fully doing.

>>12709624
>>12709681
If a VN is translated well, I do think it can compare to the original Japanese version, but it does make sense to say that a translation won't capture the original version entirely. Some things most probably will be lost, whether they be subtle or large.

>>12709751
Do ypu know japanese.

>>12709624
>But i think it redeemed itself since the plot is actually moving.
I guess my main problem with it was that I didn't really enjoy the plot. It probably just wasn't my kind of game.

>>12709681
protip, academia's precious translated literature is all shit translations too

>>12708777
Do Kotori's first for maximum impact.

>>12709271
11eyes is pretty bad, if you really want some chuuni stuff you could try it but I personally found the characters really bland, the action scenes mediocre and the writing bad in general.

>>12710047
Prety interesting to see lorewise something thats after IM2. Wonder what region it happens.

>>12709271
If you go back a few years on the archive you'll find that /jp/ used to like 11eyes until recently. Somewhat odd since it still holds a pretty high score on EGS.

>>12710197
Probably people who played it with atlas or whatever, at the same period people in /jp/ also thought that Dies Irae was a cheap FSN rip-off.
I remember the threads, "OMG IT HAS A PRIEST SUCH A RIP-OFF", "OH THAT BLOND HEROINE IS MARIE ANTOINETTE SO SHIT" etc...
People often complain about agth users here but before it was worse

>>12710213
Also in term of 11eyes, if you don't focus on the writing at all I guess it's not completely horrible, I thought the red haired girl (Mio) was cool and the opening is nice.

But I can't see anyone how anyone who tasted Masada could go back to it, you'd have better luck going to something like Fortissimo honestly so that's saying something

>>12710012

The original release is shit, though.

>>12710245
Look at the date, it's 2010

>>12710247
People liking Dies Irae here is a pretty recent thing. Kind of like how people hate Type-Moon and Looseboy now.

>>12710258
It was with the release of KKK that people who actually know japanese actually went back to Dies Irae and saw its awesomeness, I remember the threads.

Looseboy is hated personally due to the recent shitstorm but I don't think Sharin is disliked and G-senjou was always easy to troll.
And TM always had its own strong fanbase, didn't change even now

>>12710267
I'm one of them, and I'm still waiting for that goddamn tsukihime remake.

>Dies Irae is basically FSN gone wrong. If you think FSN has too convenient twists and power ups, I can't fathom what you'll think of Dies Irae. And it's obviously a huge, blatant FSN ripofff.
Ahaha going through the archive and damn Dies Irae was hated in old /jp/, even after the Acta est Fabula release.

>>12710280
And then lord moogy brought the light

>>12710309
Shut up about moogy already

>>12710309
It was KKK that brought interest in the series, I don't think Moogy has anything to do with it

>>12710213
I think people were parroting 2ch's reaction and didn't bother actually reading the game.

>>12710309
I wish I had Moogy's mystical powers to turn kusoge into kamige.

>>12709271
If you want good action eroge thats underplayed there's Amatsukaze and Kikaijikake no Eve which is bit less focused on action but you want to read it before Amatsukaze due to their connections.

>>12710321
That's because KKK is the most beautiful visual novel ever made.

>>12709271
Tell me about your "denpa sweep". What did you play?

>If you want good action eroge thats underplayed there's Amatsukaze

I went with this upon some mentions in the thread some months ago, and damn I didn't expect it to be that long. Some of the card battles were sure screwy with the difficulties. Whoever starts this should expect to work in quite a bit of time.

>>12710370
Amatsukaze is one of the longest eroge out there but it's paced quite well, the final of the loli route is pretty fucking awesome too.

Is there an eroge about S&M that isn't a nukige? Like that one manga, Nana to Kaoru.

>>12710527
Why am I not hyped? It feels like they just crammed a bunch of minigames and gimmicks this time around.

>>12710575
It reminds me of madou koukaku (that's not a good thing)

>>12710600
Umm, its clearly more Kamidori-like.
Researcher protag, collecting and training harem of various 亜人間.

>>12710626
Ohhh I hope so .... ummm but ehhh I guess we will have to wait and see ... ...

>>12710667
Indeed my good sir.

>>12710626
I sure hope the various 亜人間 would this time around have endings/routes, biggest mistake kamidori did. Dat dragon-loli too delicous.
Plot atleast seems more interesting than Kamidoris, mainly due focus on god related stuff, so it will be nice to know more about them which I sure hope we get here.

>>12710694
Isn't baruhart dead? How can the main heroine believe in him when Selika killed him

>>12710699
No, serika just destroyed one of its temples. It significantly diminished his power (as for living gods believers are essential), but Macl wasn't his only temple.

>>12710527
So far heroines cast seem to be pretty good. I hope rearing simulation part would be extensive enough.

>>12710705
I seem to recall it being said in zero that it was the attack on macl that made people start calling him godslayer though.

>>12710717
No. He became godslayer because he "killed" Astraea.

>>12707230
Is there any other company that play with character sprites like StudioRyokucha?
It was funny sometimes and certainly better than blinking sprites.

>>12710437
People still give a shit about that crap?

>>12710755
It's popular and it's better than average, of course people care about it.

>>12710758
I don't think it's better than average. They've milked it so much it's getting tiresome

>>12710762
>I don't think it's better than average

Opinions, i think it's better than random moege #2423 that get released every month which still isn't saying much. It would be silly not to milk something that retains a high level of popularity over multiple years, but it looks like they are almost finished with the series anyway

>>12710758
I also think it's better than average, but i don't understand the hype around it.

Granted, it's really enjoyable. But to be honest none of the heroines gives a strong impression and the story itself is nothing memorable or give a great emotional impact. If i would compare Majikoi to a good moege, let's say Fureraba. I would give Fureraba higher rating since both are equally enjoyable but Fureraba heroines are more charming than any of Majikoi heroines. Well, that's just my opinion but Majikoi is really weak in heroine department.

>>12710771
I agree being better than average, but its not as good as making 7 games - 27 routes + 8 after stories about it. I mean what the fuck are 27 route? MC fucked almost every pussy in the city. Just a fandisc would be enough for this.

>>12710835
Sure, but Fureraba only has dick jokes, not the same old tired Gendum references which are the hallmark of a true masterpiece of masterpieces.

Knock it off please, Majikoi is a masterpiece even Japan agreed. comparing it to some shitty moege ? Give me a break . Im sure you only hatingnon it because it's popular and partially translated.

>>12710874
It's impossible for something translated to be a kamige

Dont feed the troll (>>12710874) guys.

>>12709271
11eyes has pretty bad plot and not many cool chuuni speeches from what I remember. The fights were mostly underwhelming. I only kept playing because I liked one of the heroines.

>>12710016
Very nice.

>>12710538
You've mentioned the near-impossible. Nana & Kaoru is one of the manga I still avidly follow after all the switching around with the publishers because it deals with BDSM in such a perfect way.

I kind of want to say Noesis' Love es M but I've not personally tried it even though it's somewhere on my hard disk. So I'm unsure if it deals with the heavily emotional and interpersonal aspects of BDSM instead of just being an outlet for the fetishes.

If you find something please make sure to tell me, too.

>>12710029
And I hope it's not as boring. Lovely x Cation 2 was pretty great, but PxC was a snorefest.

Clearly.
But nukige tend to have the longest titles so you know exactly what sort of porn you're getting.

Can you guys recommend some moege which have mature heroines and not nukige? I'm bored with classic high school heroines, I'd like to have some ichaicha with office ladies, or teachers, or someone 20-25 years old. Btw I already read the damekoi.

It's been a very long time since I played Zero but didn't he start getting called the godslayer because some nun or whatever saw him kill the pope of the baruhart church and called him that?
Him killing Astraea probably added to the legend too

>>12711370
Is I recall, that name was spoken by dying archbishop (which nun overheard).

>>12710874
Takahiro is a faggot.

>>12711318
I really liked it too. It actually got me genuinely interested in rockets. Arisa was a fun character too. The true route was great and the OP was addicting as fuck. Certainly one of the strong contenders of the year.

>>12711318
>>12711434
I'm glad you guys liked it too. It definitely is my favorite game of the year, but I guess I am really biased since I love the core concept of the history of space exploration and Per Aspera Ad Astra. I've said it before but it felt like one of the few times I could hear the VA of a game (for Arisa) genuinely enjoying her role. That or she's really good at it.

What rating would you guys give to FSN?
I'm interested in knowing since most of you guys read quite a bit of VNs and are actually experienced in the medium

>>12711639
7/10 it's quite good.

>>12711639
Somewhere around 6-7/10. Nothing too special but readable

>>12711639
Around a 7.5-8, the pacing is terrible half of the time.

I liked the common route, but only the common route. I disliked the Crusaders arc, but otherwise really enjoyed it.

I hated the character routes though. I played through Sera's, which had the amazingly stupid plot of a battle tournament with the school's land held hostage.. But Kayoko's route really took the cake for pantsu on head retarded, I just had to stop reading.

>>12711639
8/10
It's a pretty important eroge in general and definitely impressive for a title released in 2004 in term of production value or scope but if you put it at the light of 2014 the flaws are pretty apparent
I actually like Nasu so I don't want to appear as someone who is just hating on him just for the sake of it but the writing in FSN in general really is quite mediocre with only a few shining scenes here and there, it really felt like the execution doesn't catch up with the concept most of the time.
But in another way I can see why it became so popular so he did do a lot of things right and as an entry level eroge, which it was for me like 8 years ago, it really is quite impressive

>>12711729
I like Nasu too, but Nasu falls into subpar pacing and weird moments. I have to admit he is the best at creating a universe that can vary so well. It's why people with better action sense like Urobuchi could make something off it that was pretty good in itself, too.

If Nasu was just director and he had someone else with a better sense of pacing writing the bulk of the story it might make for a really interesting experience.

>>12711354
For someone judging other people, you sure are too retarded and most likely didn't even read the game. Just like other EOPs.

Reason for being 神殺し:
Serika's opinion on the matter:
その剣でサティア――アストライアの胸を引き裂いた。俺を生かそうとした女神の胸を。
「俺は……神を殺した……神殺し、だ……」
「そうだ……俺は、神殺しだ……」

Legend at Macl region:
身体は女神アストライアのものに相違ない。
我ははじき出される形で、元の魔神ハイシェラ本来の身体に戻っているのだから。
女神の存在は、我が身体を保持していた時にはまるで感じられなかった。
だから――そこに立っているのは、女神の身体を最初に奪った、“神殺し”――。

Mizu Miko explanation (note that she clearly says he didn't manage to actually kill any gods):
「貴方が如何なる理由で神の体躯を得ようとも、古神に、そしてバリハルトに剣を向けました」
「“殺害”には至らずとも“神殺し”の意志を持ったことは事実。故に“神殺し”と呼ばれるのです」
「……そしてこれからも、神に剣を向け、生きることでしょう」
「貴方自らが、その定めを選んだように……」

Barouhart temple, BEFORE Serika even reached it:
〜バリハルト神殿　某所〜
「……邪神の使いが、侵入を果たしました」
マクルの街の様子を映し出す、遠見の鏡を見つめていた司祭の言葉に、その場の面々に緊張が走る。
「オレノ大司祭よ……」
「致し方ありません」
「……信仰を喪った“神殺し”を止めるため……神の力をお借りしましょう」
「……オレノ、大司祭……」


And there's not even single case when 神殺し was associated with anything but Astraea.

Thanks a lot gentlemen. I'll skip 11eyes for now.

>>12710356
Will do, both games were on my back log. Didn't know Kikaijikake no Eve was a prereq, appreciate the tip.

>>12710364
It was mostly catch-up, so you've probably played all this. Replayed Sayonara wo Oshiete, then played the three leaf games, then finished with Sayonara Utsutsu. Sayonara wo Oshiete is an absolute must play if you like denpa and I can't recommend it enough. Shizuku, Kusari, and Kizuato are all super dated, and not really good, but I think they're worth playing for the history since they're very orthodox. Sayonara wo Utsutsu was surprisingly good, not great, but definitely worth playing since it was all of like 5-6 hours long.

Talking about chuuni stuff, I guess I should try Fortissimo again.
There is a new game in that series that will be released on Vita soon and it looks cool so I want to read it but it's a direct sequel.
Everytime I start Fortissimo I always end up dropping it one hour in but I guess I'll steel myself and at least get an ending

>>12711949
Is Fortissimo actually worth reading? I've lost track of the reviews because of all the releases it has.

>>12711949

I can't deal with the second protagonist, I forget his name. I dropped it shortly after he appeared. Everything about him pisses me off, he just looks so stupid. Please report back if it's any good, though I have very little hope.

>>12711957
Momiji was great, the rest of the game was meh.

I've just finished Shizuku. Ruriko's route was good. The other two don't really add anything to the story. All up it took me about ten hours. The ending were you rape Ruriko and let your denpa go out of control was my favorite ending. I read all of Tsukishima's lines in Midorikawa Hikaru's voice.

I'm not sure if I fucked something up but there was no music, just sound effects.

>>12711928
Both Kikaijikake no Eve and Amatsukaze are pretty long so it's quite an investment but they are definitely worth it.
Eve is the closest to what I would call pure chuuni, despite how it looks and its setting it has some incredibly crazy fight scenes full of powers who would be right at home in DI.
Amatsukaze is very very long and pretty much has the most fight scenes out of any eroge but it's more traditional ninja stuff and special ninja power, though it does get really chuuni toward the end too.
Both have excellent writing, Onikage is pretty much one of the best eroge writer in term of writing pure action scenes

So yeah if you have time try them, if you want something shorter and "obscure" try some of the lesser known of Propeller like Tokyo Babel or Evolimit (the newest one Sougeki no Jaeger suck though)

>>12711978
Holy shit. I just downloaded the patch form Leaf and now it has music. I guess I'll replay it in a few years. I can't believe I played through the whole game with no music. Damn, I stupid.

Moral of the story: Always check for update patches even if it is a re-release.

>>12712103
I'm actually surprised you didn't play the remake.

>>12710213
>Probably people who played it with atlas or whatever
I didn't realize people in Japan use atlas.

>>12712114
Most of the complains about DI in japan was due to all the rerelease, now DI and Masada in general are pretty fucking loved.
DI itself sold 50k+ so it was a pretty big success as an eroge.

>>12711639
9.5/10

Truly one of the classic eroge, with memorable characters, an interesting and well-constructed world and story, and many great scenes.

>>12711639

>>12712113
I liked the original's art over the remake.

>>12712282

I mean at least it's partially realistic because just because you've slightly influenced them they're not going to fuck you off the bat like in 90 percent of other VNs. Yet at the same time there does come a point where you think "Who the hell you talking to tubs?"

The fact that if you jump the gun and get down and dirty too early will result in either the stimulus being too strong and waking them up or (in Keika's case) her friends kicking your ass should be enough

>>12708464
You're on for a ride.
Do Kotori's route first and Yumi for last.

>>12712199
>>12712282
>>12712333

Keika's route was the worst if only because her friends are just kinda there and don't really serve any real purpose aside from extra fodder at the end which is a real shame.

Mukawa's route was still the best, if only for the emotional manipulation

>>12712282
I actually like the slow gradual escalation. I find it more erotic than the actual hscenes.

>>12711667
But the Crusaders arc is literally the whole point of common route itself. To be honest, I also got tired of it after chapter 18 ( when MC got suspended from school) and starting to ctrl most stuff.

Well, about the Sera's route i'm actually more bothered about no one fucking try to stop Serizawa earlier when he go nuts, seriously you can just sneak behind him and sweep his leg .

Nevertheless, i really enjoyed it. Just play the character routes for ichaicha and you won't be dissapointed.

>>12711639

I think i'm a little alone in this, but i think Rin and Saber are bland mary sue character. I don't understand why people like them so much . Shirou " girls shoudn't fight yadayada" is also annoyed me to death. The only character that get my symphaty is only Caster, I wish there is an alternate route when she win the grail

>>12712333
>>12712402
Yes, the set up made sense, I still thought it was too fucking long. Felt like years before you actually get to stick it inside, not to mention how fucking mild the initial sessions were.

>>12712343
What's her name purple hair really should have a route, such a waste of decent design. They ought to scrap the tan and chubby scenes altogether.

>>12712402

That's kind of the appeal i suppose. You're gradually cementing your influence and dominating them mentally before it reaches the point where you do so physically.

However the fact that if you decide to switch characters when it prompts you to causes you to get the tame ending kinda irks me

>>12712433

>What's her name purple hair really should have a route, such a waste of decent design

She has something of one in the sequel where the MC puts the charms on both her and her mother

>>12712453
Shit, didn't know there was a sequel, is it 催眠演舞 ?

>>12712476
Yeah, and it's shit. Best subcharacters didn't get an actual hscene while the worst ones does.

To be honest MC doesn't really fit in as a hypnotist protag. He's an ikemen former model with groupies.

>>12712567

I didn't misquote anyone.

At >>12711354 he said that I'm "wrong".
At >>12711911 I've provided quote from the game where Serika explicitly states that he calls himself god-slayer because he killed Astraea-Satia, and where Barouhart believers call him god-slayer before Serika even stepped inside temple. At that point Astraea was only god he ever fought.
At >>12712926 that retard tried to cover up his blunder using some nonsensical remarks.

>>12713200
Wait on second reading the post on >>12711354 confuses me. He denied Selica killed Barouhart on the first quote but then denied Astrea killing as the reason for the godslayer title.

I'm not sure what side he is arguing for anymore.

I'm very sorry that you've come this far for Chapter 5.

Non plot-related minor spoiler in case you want to go in fresh

Chushingura should have either had a different ending, or ended with chapter 3. I liked Chapter 4 as well, but 5 left the worst after taste, it's genuinely bad.


Well, at least the Shinsengumi is awesome. Even if it's just amazing speeches, I'm excited for the FD.

>>12713641
To be honest I feel like the author just gave up writing in the end and decided to deceive the players by having flashy chunni battles instead.

This CG is the reason you want to read it, isn't it?

>>12713659
Again non plot-related spoilers.

No, you've come this far so you might as well finish it. Chapter 5 deals with History and the unknown overarching antagonist. Just the ending is so bad and so out of nowhere that it eclipses a lot of the highlights of the previous chapters. At least for me, that was the games major flaw.

It's essential particularly because the fan disk happens after and between two of the major ending events in the game . If you liked what you've played and are interested in the FD, you can't skip anything in the original.

>>12713654
Because this is better than having an "EOP General." You know just as well as I do that it would consist of a few people trying to discuss stuff and a ton of non-EOP guys shitting all over the thread.

>>12713842
Just to follow up as well. The fan disk probably won''t address the ending, rather, it can't but as kind of an "episode" with the Chushingura characters, the author's pickiness for respecting the setting and the historical entities he depicts, I think its going to be pretty great as long as all of the new ero scenes are kept separate from the main dish. The power speeches in the preview at the end of the demo sounded awesome.

I really think that if you've played and like the original that you don't have many reasons not to be excited for the FD.

>>12713641
Chapter 3 is when MC goes back to modern time, right?

Personally I thought the story would've been better if they just ended it there.

>>12711978
Would you mind telling me where you downloaded the original version? Could only find the newest.

>>12712329
This is why I'd prefer the original (even if the newest one has voices).

I made a thread about it a long time ago but it didn't really work out. So maybe it would be better to ask here: Can you guys give me an example of a troped dating sim with pretty much everything you could expect but still being enjoyable?

Lovely x Cation games are awesome, Pretty x Cation was at least decent and there's a second one coming out next year. First LxC has some drama in routes, but LxC2 and PxC are almost completely drama free. They don't have a continuous story or anything like that so pick the one that seems to have the most appealing heroines to you.

>>12714084
Ah k, gonna check it out. Thanks for the advice, anon!

Ch. 5 major spoilers below.

Me too. But the writer didn't explain the bloodline element that pulled Suguha into Edo period in Chapter 3. If they just made him come back with a protagonist with a different name, they probably could have avoided that explanation entirely. Introducing new villains and stupid whatshername final boss was just a bad idea, they could have kept it to history as a force without much detail and been good.

It's just such a shame because 1-3 are really good, 4 is hit or miss depending on how interested you are in the conversations, and 5 just disregarded every good part up to that point because of theme spamming and "plot".

>>12714030
There is a torrent on nyaa with most Leaf games. The one that is not the renewal version is the original but remember to download the patch from Leaf's site to get music.

The better way is to download the 2009 version of Kizuato which contains the old and new versions of Kizuato and Shizuku. I think this is in the same torrent.

Now I don't know which version of Kizuato to play. The newest version has voices, extra route and all that jazz, but I like that 90s aesthetic. I'll probably play the original one.

>>12712953
Thank you so much. Not the anon that asked for it but thank you away way.

>>12713733
Is this worth playing? I remember is CG from years ago but couldn't find the game so gave up and forget about it.

These babes are SMOKING

Speaking of infamous CGs, does anyone remember the one of a before and after picture of some girl's doll house being destroyed, with her crying in the second panel? I never did find out what game it was from, looked like a Xuse title though.

>>12714294
Hopefully this isn't as shit as their previous all-ages game.

I like the whole fying sports concept, but if they make another hetare MC...

>>12714304
Hetare man is great. I like a game where a man dont do nothing and pass on activity and difficult thing to people around him making him a sort of burden but he have a good handle on life so people kind of like him for that reason.

>>12714303
>Xuse
I meant Axl. I don't know how I mixed those up.

>>12714267
..Why not just emulate the PC-98 version with NP2?

>>12714331
So it actually was Xuse. Thanks.

>>12714339
I tried that but it come up with some error and wouldn't start. That was the first thing I tried.

愛妹恋愛 is actually pretty cute & lewd. I like how the game tries to make the heroines appear more, I dunno, alive? They aren't just copy pasted tsundere/derere/etc collection of tropes. Pretty rare for a borderline nukige. It even manages to be funny at times. The feet are still terrible though.

I specifically meant the part where they recruit lots of new people who go and make everything far worse than before. Not the whole thing.

I need to continue on the fandisk, I stopped when it was dragging through some silly festival drama.

Who fuwanovel here?

>>12708702
That's what everyone seems to think, but I never actually thought it was that amazing. Was it the relationships?

I also wish 青姉 got more development.

>>12714502
I also wasn't blown away. However it really capitalized on all of its selling points. The game was outright beautiful, the setting, characters, relationships, dialogue, really everything just radiated beauty. The other thing was kind of inherent. The game was really genuine, pure, and sincere. That sincerity came through crystal clear.

Whether or not its the greatest thing ever or the best Shumon game or whatever, I can't really deny that its 100% of what it was trying to be and what it was aiming for.

I honestly think it has a lot to do with whether or not what it has to say resonates with whoever's reading it. Some of the things that happened really hit me hard and made it a very personal experience, this probably biases my view of it quite a bit.

Shuumon's writing is also wonderful all the way through and the underlying message is also really touching if you just look at it in the context of the story. Like >>12714561 said, one of my favorite things was also how 'complete' the game felt both in all aspects, everything kind of played off of each other and made for a really solid experience.

I don't think it's something everyone will enjoy like I did, though.

And yes, 青姉 had my favorite scene in chapter 2 that didn't make make me cry.

>>12714350

I just got a really generous bonus this month. Could I get some recommendations on eroge to buy? Great time to build up a collection.

Generally I have most really popular titles, but some things slip through the crack.

DI is a pretty long game, how much did you have to pay for that? Did she know Japanese?

It Took me around 4 months to finish it, if i didn't set mecab and jprashit on my ta, maybe i drop DI from the prolouge

>>12714920
Thanks guys. Should have mentioned that I think I'm on top of upcoming releases.

Anything from this year or any year will do.

>>12715027
Anything you've played and liked, then. Or something you haven't played by a writer/brand that you like. I would say prioritize smaller brands, but really it doesn't matter as much when you're talking about older games.

Ever since playing Rakuen I've really been craving games with either convincing or really intricate characters. Maruto and Jackson and the guy that wrote Masaru have all done a really good job of this, though I worry they set the standards too high.

What are some really good charage? Avoiding archetypes as much as possible.

>>12715027
I'm personally gonna buy Sayori's Nekopara LE this month, since I love her art and this is her first dive into eroge. The artbook and calendar look like they will be fun too. It also costs half as much as a standard A release.
https://nekoworks.booth.pm/items/54594

>>12715077
Thanks a lot for pointing this out.

I should note that I'm completely blind on doujin titles until they reach a certain threshold (like Fata Morgana and JQV)

>>12715077
>this is her first dive into eroge.
Not even close.
Aside from doing coloring for age for 3 or 4 games, there's at least two other games she did the art for.

>>12715093
Yeah, but I mean as her own circle.

>>12713500
So there is a translation project for this right now. Do you guys think it will be completed?

http://libraryshepherd.tumblr.com/

>>12713733
Haha, yeah. I looked it up on vndb and really liked the art too. Thanks for finding it!

>>12715166
Stop.

Has anyone uploaded the DLsite version of わんわん、もーもー、うさうさ、こーん！ ? I've heard the package version has a fatal bug that prevents you from getting every CG, and no update patch to fix it.

>>12715494
>わんわん、もーもー、うさうさ、こーん！
Sounds like my sort of game.

If thats your current pre-order list it lacks the new VenusBlood for notable releases unless that isn't your thing. Of this year somewhat notable release was Nanairo Reincarnation that might have slipped past you.

I can have a mediafire link in about 15-20 minutes, if you're fine with that.

Anyways, the English seems pretty legit so far, though I can't really make sure since I can't read moonrunes. Also, it seems to be able to detect your system's language and automatically set it to that.

>>12716237
I'm not in it for the English anyways, but thanks for the mirror.

That's a good thing, their VN thread is fucking horrible.
It's all right to post about whatever you like, especially if you were nice enough to make a mirror for the game

>>12716237
>the English seems pretty legit so far,

Just taking a look at it myself aside from a few mistranslations (The "I hate you" one stood out like a sore thumb) they did a pretty damn good job with the English translation, can't comment on the Chinese unfortunately. I don't know why they put so much effort into the English when oversea sales are generally terrible however

>>12715642
You who can't read are not in position to lecture me. Oh, right, you don't have mental capability to figure out even that.

>>12716465
>I don't know why they put so much effort into the English when oversea sales are generally terrible however
Steam cashgrab?

Looks like they're starting to upload Hanahime sample voice videos.

>>12716621
I liked the slice of life part of Senshinkan a lot, hopefully they will be as amusing in Bansenjin

>>12716621
Mitsuhiko and Noe will get a resolution, hopefully the pseudo fucked up love triangle between Atsushi, Yurika and Munefuyu gets some too.

>>12716643
Is that Yurika in the bottom? She looks great that way

>>12716641
>>12716643
Talked too fast I guess.

>>12716647
She's hot, but she spends most of the game sitting on a chair, it's hard to give her better angles that way.

>>12716621
So Yeshua is protag again. Masada sure likes to troll his readers.

Can anyone here share how they learned chuuni/magic-battle vocabulary?

I just finished senshinkan prologue and I saw quite a few new words.

I have read a bunch of japanese literature so it's not that I'm new to the language.

Am I supposed to ease my way in with lighter nitroplus and light games?
