Read the premise and consider how the story can unfold.

why are old vns so fucking boring?

Is 猫撫ディストーション Exodus the best VN ever written?

>>15116139
I see this mentioned a lot by that japanese guy that made English twitter account recently. Can someone confirm if this actually good? I hate incest stuff so I avoided it.

>>15116257
Its retarded shit with boring and bloated writing, terrible pace and worst possible endings.

>>15116257
It's not good
I saw that guy too but he has read like 50 VNs, don't take his opinion too seriously

>>15116125
From the older games I've played they seem to be paced better so I enjoy them more. However there are also some games where no detail is put into describing anything, so I guess it can be a double-edged sword.

>>15114354
I thought it was pretty obvious that Thomas is actually a Japanese pretending to be a foreigner.

>>15115800
Dunno, this shit also get high rating on egs. I seriously wonder why.

>>15117367
Because Japan actually has taste unlike faggot Americans.

>>15116139
Probably not for you, but it's also not bad as some people make it to be just because they can only see it as some Subahibi deteriorate version, and its crypticism only as a tool to camouflage "bad writing". Funny thing when you get to know Motonaga was already doing the same thing six months before Tsui no Sora was even released, and the way they mention things like Wittgenstein are completely different since then.

Actually I really don't even know by what basis someone would call Nekonade bad (or good for that matter), because, well, for better or worse the game is just excellent at its main point of not showing the reader what the main point is.
I do prefer Exodus over the main game though, but that's simply because spotting a hidden Jakobson reference there made me happy.

>>15117420
It's bad because it's boring, padded, basically not an entertaining read

What are you refering to?

>>15117588
It's not significant in a media as young as eroge, 6 months is nothing
I'm not dissing Motonaga but having a good idea and making a good game are 2 completely different things

>>15117552
I guess there's little point discussing if our points are both just "your crit theory is inferior and mine is superior" then?

Actually, trying to explain myself better, that was exactly what I was saying. I was not making a point of "Sca-ji is a Motonaga rip-off", for god's sake.

Seems like the art quality went down a little when you compare Nanairo and Akeiro side by side, especially in the characters. Fuyou...

But still fun to compare how some art assets were reused.

>>15118399
I thought the exact same thing. Also, >tfw kotori is gone

>>15118412
I don't really mind because I didn't really like her route that much, or her as a character. Kana is much more fun.

>>15118446
Kana is definitely fun, she's a shining example of a good heroine in my opinion. Not scrubbed of any personality to be suitably "pure", not afraid to make jokes, and so on and so on. I mean, she's not breaking any crazy ground or anything, I just found her to be an engaging character by her own right, and not just because she's a hot virgin.

Any VNs well-written like this?

>音楽のような、甘酸っぱい林檎のような声。…ローラ。大人になりきっていない女の子。太古からの果実をむさぼり、果汁を口に含んだまま歌う…彼女の動作のひとつひとつが、ほんのわずかな動きが、野獣と美女の間の、抑圧されて爆発寸前の野獣と、純白の綿のワンピースをまとった、体にくぼみのある美しい少女の間の、秘められた触れ合いを隠蔽し、秘めごとをさらにいっそう謎めいたものにしてくれる。

At the moment, I'm playing Lovely x Cation 2.
I like the girls, the art is really nice, and the
game play is good, as well. Story is not too
interesting, though.
Once I'm done with this I want to get

>>15121130
Not that anon but why this insistence on the price? The vast majority of people who pirate games are the all or nothing type. It could be 5 yen and they'd still not get it. Mentioning the price is quite irrelevant in this case.

>>15121659
I think the main thing is that because normal commercial games are anywhere from 4,000 to 10,000 yen (generally trending towards the latter for big names), 648 appears extremely low and therefore avoiding paying it less moral.

Can anyone who's finished maitetsu say how many parts there are in the common route? I'm already at 08 which seems pretty speedy if there's only 20 some parts. So I'm thinking it's more in the 50, 70 range. Is that correct?

>>15120721
Why does a 2016 VN have a 4:3 resolution? Is this a treasured tradition among doujin devs or something?

>>15121751
From my experience with other pirates, most don't really give a fuck about morals or supporting the author and such. They only care about getting games for free, so for them the price is just an irrelevant information.

Either way I bought the game, I might upload it if no one else does in the time it takes me to finish it.

>>15121763
Well, in this thread in particular, there's a common idea - wanting to support the industry, but being completely unfucking willing to pay close to $100 for fucking vns. That's totally reasonable, everyone agrees. Except some butthurt Japanese dudes, this thread is more or less in complete unity that Japanese eroge prices are fucking way too high, and the only way to manage it is to only buy games from favourite companies and leave it at that, which "forces" fans of VNs into piracy. So, despite being a thread of pirates, the cultural attitude towards piracy is that of "this situation is the result not of greed, but of VNs being too damn expensive". However, when the price drops to as low as 648 yen, that argument can no longer hold up, and thus you have people criticizing the guy.

>>15121763
Pretty much agreed with >>15121788 but
>I might upload it
Please don't. I'm sure if you uploaded it it'd hurt their sales, even if they're not making many sales in the first place.

>>15121788
It's two things for me (and a lot of people here, I think). Not thinking most eroge are worth more than $20-$30 is definitely a big one, but it's also that I don't want to keep a bunch of eroge boxes in my room for people to see, and for people in some countries they couldn't even import. Although of course that doesn't apply if they have a dl version and actually accept gaijin orders

It's roughly a 15-16 parts each route, that includes common. Subroutes are like 3-5 parts.

>>15121957
Ehh? So the common route is 15-16 parts? That seems wild. I guess I over estimated it because of how many side characters there are. Halfway through the common route, and only seen a fifth of'm. Or maybe the later parts are way longer, these first 8 have been pretty brief. Thanks for replying anon, I couldn't find a damn thing on google or through ctrl fing bbspink.

>>15121751
They got like 20 sales since the game got hyped in the west and they were happy for that, if you were to upload it it's possible they would lose sales
There is no reason to upload it when it's so readily available and cheap, DLsite is accessible everywhere

>>15121131
does dlsite take paypal?

>>15121760
has to do with 4:3 displays still in use by the japan userbase

>>15122247
I read something recently that stated that laptops were far more common than desktops. That was mainly to do with VNs not having 1080p though, not widescreen in general

>>15122227
I don't think so, but I could purchase Himawari with my Visa Electron debit card, followed by logging into my bank account and confirming the purchase. Just remember to register and log in to the site first, because if you don't you'll get a generic "card not accepted" error without any sort of explanation, which is probably a foreigner card block that gets lifted once you log in.

>>15121813

You are forgetting that not everyone can actually buy it, even if they wanted to. DLSite JP only accepts credit cards. If you normally use Paypal, you can't buy it. (Last time I checked it's not on the English DLSite)

So if he uploads it after he is finished, people who got interested in it through recent reviews bought it already anyway, I'd say. Well, I dunno how much he'll read so maybe I'm wrong there. Not like it's that long. (400k Moji or something as far as I remember?)

>>15121973

Where do you actually see the part you are in? Pretty sure you mean the "scenes" where you can see your progress at the bottom with some bar. But I doubt you actually count how many you clear?

82KB, 601x142px

>>15122341
>Where do you actually see the part you are in?
The bookmarks I believe. I did mean the "scenes" you refer to but I didn't call'm scenes because the scene actually changes within the part if that makes sense.

>>15122341
>If you normally use Paypal, you can't buy it.
I haven't tried it but I remember someone mentioning that you can buy credits on the all-ages version of the site with Paypal and then use those credits on the 18+ version of the site. If that works, then them not accepting Paypal on the 18+ version of the site isn't really a good excuse either.

>>15122341
To add onto >>15122352 they seem to have been fairly receptive to the western fans liking it so far / have had back and forths with a few western fans, so I wouldn't be surprised if they'd offer another way to buy it outside of DLSite if you asked them so long as there's nothing stopping them from selling somewhere other than DLSite. I imagine uploading it would just sour their view of western fans, and I wouldn't want that.

>>15122352

As I said, it's not on the English DLsite. Paypal is only accepted there. (And Seabed is all ages anyway, so there'd be no need to do the credits thing)

>>15122350

Ah, uh okay. I never looked at these, because quite frankly? What the hell did they do with the save-system... don't fix what's not broken. Luckily it simply auto-saves so I didn't need to bother with it. Just made a bookmark and yeah, you can see it there all-right. (guess I got to part 7 before I ended up playing other things, gives me nice sense of "how long will this go" though once I'll continue)

>>15122359
>I imagine uploading it would just sour their view of western fans, and I wouldn't want that.
I mean, everything with interest gets uploaded, so if they got soured by it I honestly would just consider them heretofore ignorant. Plus, I mean, people pirate in Japan too, so it's not like a single westerner uploading something is reflective of Western fans in general, or of Eastern fans by contrast of them not having yet uploaded it.

>>15122370
Either way, if it's really a matter of wanting to buy it but having no way to do so, then it's worth a shot at least trying to get into contact with them on twitter https://twitter.com/seabed_cm or something and asking them about it / asking for another way to buy it that works with Paypal or whatever method they're trying that isn't working.

>>15122370
It barely has 100 sales, these sort of games with low sales don't get uploaded
You have ways to get it, just do it if you are interested

>>15122439
If I wanted to read it I'd buy it, I was just explaining that it getting uploaded would just be a matter of course

>>15122377

For now I sent an e-mail to DLSite for a "product request". I don't have much hope, but who knows. Might help. In the end I'm not going through all kinds of shit to get my hands on a doujin-game I may end up not even liking. (So like I'm not getting a twitter account for this, or a credit-card or whatever)
I suppose there is a trial, but before I'd try that I'd like to know if I can purchase it or not. Comes all down to me not really being part of who they'd normally want to sell this to I suppose. But eh. It's a doujin circle, so this is to be expected. For now I'll wait a while.

>>15122477
Don't you have a regular debit card? I don't know what sort of services your bank provides but here every bank allows you to create virtual cards that work just like a credit card which you can use in these situations. That's the way I do all my online purchases, as I don't have a credit card either.

>>15122493

Well that stuff "exists" but costs money. I'm in Germany, and credit cards are simply not a thing here. You.. don't need one, at all. There are plenty of other ways to pay. Like if I want one of those "prepaid" creditcards, I gotta pay 40 Euro every year. Why would I do that if paypal is free? Just as an example.

I've looked into this at some point already, but ended up deciding that paypal is the best to stay with, even with not all shops accepting it and so on. Well, not like a credit-card is accepted everywhere either.

>>15122705
You can't pay 40 euro a year?

>>15122705
Dude, I'm in Poland with a stable income of maybe 500 euros per month and I got my debit card upgraded to credit for free. (I then used it to successfully buy some eroge from DLsite)

You don't even have to go there. You know G-senjou no Maou? The main-girl there was a long time in Germany, and the VN has a little bit about her life there. Unfortunately I've read it like ages ago, so I don't remember what was specifically said, but damn.

That said I'm pretty sure VNs get "Engrish" and US/UK things wrong or refer that way more often. Girl on the left here is also a "half" who supposedly knows English very well. (Man I somehow love Hapymaher more than I should I feel, but all the characters just.. click with me)

That is sound advice even if you don't follow it, you know. If you try and try again, you will succeed, no matter what (within the realms of reason, not like "i want to go faster than the speed of light"). Even if he gives up, it's still true that if he hadn't he would have succeeded.

Self-awareness and self-restraint is one of the big reasons people never take risks and never go anyway beyond their own bubble, which is why many of the replies posted doesn't really surprise me.

In regards to moege, last month had a couple of titles worth reading but not enough to last more than a week. Thankfully there's more on offer this month

I wish ensemble would stop using super generic designs for the girls in their releases, the stories tend to be crap but I can put up with that as long as the girls are attractive.

>>15125123
If you like neither the art nor the story just play games by a different company. That's a lot more likely to leave you pleased than hoping that company becomes half tolerable.

There's no shortage of games with attractive art but shit story.

Honestly it looks like they stopped trying after Ojounana, feels very mass produced, just like GIGA.

>Somehow I can't figure out what that one's supposed to be about
Well think it as a "lord of the rings eroge version". There are bloody onis who eat humans and turn some of them into onis, occupy castles and become some kind of army with stronger oni commanders. Mc tries to make alliances as much as possible since they have lost one time against them and onis grew even stronger since then, took a couple castles etc.

The game goes in this line, and in the middle of events mc & heroines fall in love with each other. Its something between heavy plotge and moege, with some historical elements.

>>15126550

Oh right, that's a thing now, huh. Will be interesting to see if it'll actually be cracked. And if people can even legally play it. Wouldn't be the first case of DRM which is implemented so badly that the game won't even work on most machines..

>>15126559

I personally don't mind it, as much as I like the two artists of the "pretty" ones. I don't really like the artist of the "lovely" ones though, can't even say why. Something about the faces.. the lips. Or something.

>>15126461
The art might be a massive downgrade but If it gets cracked I'll still play it for the teacher heroine and the heroine voiced by 御苑生 メイ

I'm hype for the PC Version as I don't have a console.

Just finished Maitetsu's common route and am making some headway into a character route. Gotta admit, I'm not getting into it at all. I saw on 2ch that almost every considered the common route their favourite and I can get a feeling why... honestly that was a pretty satisfying conclusion on it's own. Anyone else feel the same? Just lose interest in Maitetsu after the common route?

>>15127304
Yeah I did too
I like the overall mood of the game but I don't really care about doing the routes right now

>>15127343
It feels very Japanese somehow. But holy moly, every single character is boring. I mean, certainly attractive, but everyone is polite and normal. Nobody really says interesting things (though Sousetsu gives a speech at every opportunity), it's like instead of interesting characters all the "interest" comes from trains, and in the meantime you deito lolis because after all it's Lose.

>>15126153
>the concept of earning more money as one improves themselves and does more significant work
There's nothing wrong with that concept in itself, the problem is that it never happens

>>15127618
That's pretty much why I didn't like it.

>>15127304
I lost interest before the common route ended because I just couldn't deal with the infodump anymore. If they stop with that shit in the character routes I might pick it back up again.

>>15127618

Funny how I just got a quote of another VN somewhat related.

Hilarious.

Finished hanachirasu, I liked it, I was pretty unskilled in japanese when I started and could do a few lines or words at a time, by the time I was finished I had read a bunch of other VNs and could read Hanachirasu at a decent pace like normal text in english but a bit slower I guess, still had some trouble during info dumps but got by.

The loli was pretty creepy, I don't like her, the music and tone was cool it felt pretty 90's not the kinda I like but ending doing so, but during some certain 'cool/surprising parts' the music turned wacky? It kinda too me out of it.

The VN was short and well some parts worked well. It felt like you were watching the ending to a long part series but had exposition, unlike Dra-koi which felt like if the story was long it wouldn't really work as well.

Something confused me however, why did Akane drop the key card so Igarusu could kill his boss and co, there was no need too, also why did he commit sudoku?

Do you not like cute girls?

>>15130726
Its just another moege #2349513045792386459, I have over 200 of these in my backlog, gathering dust in darkest corners of my HDD.

>>15130726
Da Crapo by any other name would smell as putrid.

>>15130063
He can't save the industry every time. I bet the arrogant cracker will make it even worse!

>>15130731
To have this many moege, 5.5 of them would have been produced every second since the dawn of time. About 14 million per second if they started being produced 5000 years ago with the first written texts ever found.

>>15130749

So that's why my backlog is that big! Crazy nips.

>>15130726

If I play a moege, it's probably that or Wizards Complex if I don't forget something. But I too have too many on my backlog as well, so I think I won't be playing these as they don't really look too interesting. (as in, I have moege with cuter girls and "better settings" on my backlog)

>>15130955

What makes their VNs even so popular? I never bothered with any of their titles, as they seem so.. generic. And unlike for example Yuzusoft they don't even seem like very "polished" moege or anything. It just seems like your average stuff you get from several other devs as well. Okay art, okay production values.. am I overlooking something?

>>15130726
None of the heroine designs combined with their VAs appeal to me whatsoever.

>>15130965
Nostalgia, probably. A lot of people got their first taste of pure love games with Da Capo.

>>15131675
There are plenty of characters that're intelligent, nihilistic, and with a wicked sense of humor. Nanairo's Iyo comes to mind.

So like loli sadist? I'm currently reading something like that, which has that.. kind of. You won't have the "100 years old" thingy though.
If you like "strong" girls it's probably generally for you. Name in screenshot/gamewindow. Girl as well, just.. flipped. Don't ask. Shit's slightly on drugs at times. I quite like what I've seen so far.

Other than that, if you are into yuri, the true heroine of Seisai no Resonance is most certainly "wise", and she has a sharp tongue.. though not so much towards the protagonist after a while. Not really a sadist either.
The true route was really well done, including an.. interesting first ending you get when you finish it the first time.

Can't really give much better stuff here, as I dropped Yumina, so I only know said girl from like the first 2 or 3 chapters. It's also been a while.

How about using a program that automatically takes screens ever minute? Maybe something good will come out of that! It's twice the fun. After reading a VN, you can do a slideshow of all the screens! Nice, cozy, suited for the maximum of lazyness possible.

I was kind of thinking about playing it but people say it's too dope and the plot has too many "lies". I'm talking about "No she's not your real sister and your sister is dead but wait there is that plot twist and here and here aaaand then they sort of fucked up the whole thing.

Can't tell you if the plots holds up. So far I've not seen any lies. The subject itself however can easily lead to confusion. It also doesn't help that the writing is, as such, not typical moege tier.
That said, the VN is a lot about atmosphere, which I feel gets shown pretty fast. So maybe give it a spin and if you don't like it after an hour or so, just drop it. Personally I wouldn't even be bothered too much if the story suffers a bit, as I quite like the whole cast. Plus the last VN I finished was Satsukoi. And that's on of those VNs that casually drops a bomb in some subordinate clause at the end of the true route, that retroactive makes the whole plot dumb and essentially fucks everything up. As fun as the main-heroine was (pic related), the plot.. THE PLOT.


As for no yuri, well if you don't like the genre that's fine. Though I also don't really like most yuri VNs.. which is a bit sad given that I do quite like the genre. Oh well.

Everything except that mermaid thing was just great. I mean, it's a mermaid, right? Shouldn't they have, like, gills instead of, you know, Wolverine's claws?

>>15132085

That's just prejudice! (The VN says that, so that part is deliberately done)
That said, I actually agree. The whole plot around the mermaid stuff was dumb. I liked the sub-plot of the "father" and the overall romance with Nao (?) was also fine. Still, why the author even killed the theme is beyond me. You know the whole "would you die for your loved one?". Becomes pretty absurd, once it's revealed that male mermaids die around the time they'd get eaten by the females anyway. So all the "I'm not going to eat my brother!!" and everything becomes absurd, because death is certain anyway. Also nicely fucks over the redhead ending where Yuu even requests the protag to stay with her sister. Kinda funny if you think about it.. Oh well.

This girl suddenly made some pretty interesting faces.

>>15132424
That whole section of the game really annoyed me. (real spoilers) Nozomi and Nonoka. I get it, bullying is pretty bad, but holy fuck was Nozomi a total drama queen about it. I know people who's parents didn't fucking feed them and they lived their whole childhood close to starvation. Heck, look at anyone in the fucking middle east having their lives torn up by ISIS. Their lives are unimaginably worse than hers. The whole time Nozomi was whining about getting bullied and how EEEEVIL she was now I was just like, Jesus Christ grow up. Same for Ayako. What happened to her fucking sucked, but its not something to drive one to that levels of hate. A Bradyon Veda quote comes to midn (paraphrasing in English:) "It looks like she has a boss who drilled in formality, to the point that she salutes even if she doesn't want to. It's unfortunate, but I don't pity her. What she went through is no doubt preferable to the situation war veterans with no limbs suffer through." That's pretty much my response to Nozomi. Yeah, her situation sucked, but hoooly fuck it's still a pretty good deal over a good deal of people's lives. She really needs some perspective. My ideal conclusion to her appearance in Kana's route would Kana showing her photographs of starving war oprhans and Nozomi being like "oh damn my life was pretty good".

No no. I didn't say it makes it better. We all suffer and that suffering is legitimate. It makes her reaction goddamn childish, is all. Completely lacking any perspective. Immature as hell.

I really hate how they turned almost every A routes into a harem. Its not like I dislike harem but they are just going like "lets make him fuck 5 different girls and end the route" without any background events or reasons at all .

>>15134231
You're over exaggerating. There are 2 harem routes (Neither of them are primary endings either) and a couple of threesome ends. It is by no means "Every route"

No A-1 harem. A-2 had a threesome ending, but I found that route unreadable anyway. No A-3 harem, I think. A-4 and A-5 are the only ones I'd say definitely had a harem.

Would have rather had an other Chris/Margit scene in A-5 rather than a bunch of characters I know nothing about, but then I guess that indicates that maybe Margit's afterstory will actually have some plot? I can hope.

>>15134249

harem endings you mean.

A-1 was great in this matter, there wasn't any unnecessary random girl fucking scenes and they really felt like proper "routes". But I guess they got tried of writing something proper, Specially in A-4 and A-5 its just fucking every girl you see and finishing the route.

Well I still enjoyed majikoi series, but after the first A game I had a little more expectation in them instead of this.

>>15134256
>A-2 had a threesome ending
There was no threesome scene so I wouldn't count that

>>15134301
Those unnecessary scenes only really happen in Stacy's route (I like Shiela so it doesn't bother me), Rinchu's route and I'm not too sure about A-5 yet.

The only real issue I've ran into with the series as of late is the noticeable drop in quality in A-3 and A-4. Hopefully A-5 doesn't suffer

>>15134301
A-4 was awful in general, that's hardly its worst fault.
>>15134302
Oh, right. Then just A-4 and A-5, really. Hell, I'm actually surprised they gave Lee and Stacy separate routes because they probably could have gotten away with a threesome there without much comment.

>>15134324
They could have but it'd be a low quality crap route if they did, they could have had optional threesome endings in both of the routes but that would just lower the value of their individual routes.

>>15134301
>but Yamato is fucking 2-3 different girls at most of A games.
No, not really (outside of harem endings). I think you need to replay the series because that does not happen as much as you think it does.

>>15134338
I know. I'm glad they didn't since I actually found those two routes better than I expected.

>>15134328
I hope the emote isn't crap.

>>15134301
>A-1 was great in this matter, there wasn't any unnecessary random girl fucking scenes and they really felt like proper "routes"
Shame that most of the content in both Azumi's and Sayaka's route was garbage. Benkei is really the only notable part of A-1

>>15134362
I agree with sayaka, but I dont think they could make Azumi route any different. She was a pretty hard character to make a route in the first place so I'm not blaming them.

>>15134399
Neither do I and it's not like they had a choice to not do her route with Azumi's popularity, the thing is that it doesn't change the outcome and the outcome was bad.

>>15134399
>>15134402
I don't think they should have done her route in the first place. Yeah, her fans might be kind of annoyed, but she never written with the possibility of being a love interest in the first place and she just doesn't work as one at all. Maybe with that kind of precedent we wouldn't have had to put up with Homura route just because three or four people have a bandaid fetish.

It feels weird that they're actually portraying Takae's bad luck seriously now. The last few releases have trained me to laugh at her misfortune.

>>15134537
Seeing her crying killed my ability to laugh at it

>>15134546
Before or now? She didn't really seem like she cared before. But yeah, I think this has killed the joke for me.

General info about Sen no Hatou bundled in one place.
http://dengeki-hime.com/2016/04/27/15159/

Was it previously revealed Hotori-chan works as an idol? Not that I like her less for it... but it feels like August is trying hard to put current trends into the game.

>>15134649
Daitoshokan had the VA girl.

>>15134657
Ah, Miyu. Yeah. but she wasn't a main heroine.

>>15134560
I've noticed that there are some scenes where her sprite is crying but the text doesn't indicate she is or make any mention of it, I wonder if they've linked the wrong face layer to her sprite or if it was intentional

>>15134231
Why do you people even bother to touch this crap? For example, my testicles don't have so much capacity to ejaculate on ever single h-scene, and there like 100 of them. Everything besides porno in this shit is plane ass boring as hell and can't even make you chuckle more often than 2 times per 100 hours. So low standards on this boards, so fucking low.

>>15134703
You're talking about eroge, there are no standards besides personal taste

>>15134328

So basically "don't read this now, we add shit"? Wasn't Plus like Vita only at some point? (meaning all ages?) Guess something changed. Well, good to know. Good thing I didn't start this recently and chose something else. Seems like pretty uncharted territory for the dev though, emote and all.

>>15129411
VN is probably my least favorite medium for porn so yes

28th soon.

If there's any buyfags around, which games are you purchasing?

>>15134814
Maybe 戦国†恋姫Ｘ ～乙女絢爛戦国絵巻～, based on the reviews.

>>15134649
>idol
Blegh, what the fuck?
I read in her descrption she was doing a secret job and my mind made a connection to some underground resistance movement, or perhaps to their world's FBI equivalent.

But an idol? That's awful, no way around it. Plain awful. The first crack has appeared in Sen no Hatou. I hope it's not a big deal in the game.

>>15134862
What part of 'this is not a serious game' that August said didn't you understand?

>>15134871
There's a difference between serious and having characters interact with the setting. Even if she worked for the FBI/an underground movement it wouldn't need to be a big deal. An idol, though? That's shitty for reasons BEYOND being "non serious". It's shitty in every game it appears in and it's gonna be shitty here. "Idols" in a fantasy game? That's just stupid.

>>15134649
>Idol
Eh. Not going to judge this until we see more, but still, fucking idols everywhere these days.

>>15134862
>>15134875

She leads the resistance... and funds it as an idol.

>>15134879
Not eroge, but it was really annoying in Tokyo Xanadu for example.

>>15134879
Why do otaku put up with idols given that they're all impure hypersluts?

>>15134915
It's just the current trendy shit. I hope it dies out soon.

>>15134915

In eroge they are pure until they see the d of the MC. And otaku enjoy those hypersluts.

>>15134814
As baseson fag 戦国†恋姫Ｘ as long as they dont fuck up at the ending.

>>15134910
I didn't even read the page cuz I was so pissed.
Nevertheless, shoehorning her in as an idol is retarded, be her the resistance leader or not. In fact, it is precisely because she's the resistance leader she shouldn't be an idol. I'll cool my rage though and wait for the trial and see if it handles things more elegantly.

>>15134649
I for one am glad that this is going to be more like Daitoshokan and not edgy bullshit for teenagers.

>>15134944
SOL is fine, idolshit is shit

>>15134920
I'm really hyped myself, but you're right that idol is not something I'd prefer having in Sen no Hatou.

One more thing I'm not too keen about is the MC having an amnesia. That just screams cliche.

>>15134862
>>15134875
>>15134955

I'm gonna wait until the trial comes out before making any judgements. When the previews for Daitoshoukan came out it looked like complete generic shit but it turned out pretty good none the less, so I'm gonna give them the benefit of the doubt here.

>>15134972

If amnesia is like a big point in this, it's more or less doomed to fail. I don't think you can use this plot device in a positive way.
It kinda works if it's only a minor point, but that's usually not called amnesia, but rather "forgetting something that happened a long time ago" or whatever.

Although all that said, Baldr Sky was popular, right? And that's like all about that. So I guess wait and see.

Hmm, who knows what they'll do with it.

>>15135030

Yeah, but that really does sound it'll be the same old "you promised to marry me!!" and the like we all know. Then again, this CAN be subverted. If it's more of a comedy work, I'm sure one can work with this just fine.

>>15135048
Or it'll turn out MC was instrumental to somehow disrupting the Empire's magical defense and allowing the Republic to invade.

So this is the second time I've heard this exact same fluttery flute sound in Abo Takeshi's music. Anyone know what this specific sound's name is? I really like it.

Maybe genre shift? I actually wouldn't be surprised if August did that. It wouldn't be so weird seeing how their last two successful works were rather different in style and tone. So how about you mix em, for maximum profit.

If they had actually warned people before hand it wouldn't have been so bad.

In retrospect it's pretty funny that they released it the same day as Rance VI which was highly successful

Seems A-5 messed up the sprites. Bit jarring to see Takae's miserable crying sprite pop up during neutral/happy scenes.

>>15135558
So far I've only seen it happen in Taeke's route. >>15134677

>>15134649
Why does the setting sound so reactionary? Which seems weird coming from August.

>>15135628
Reactionary to what?

>>15134362
What's wrong with Azumi's route?

>>15135664
Way way too much "I love Hideo" and nowhere near enough "I love Yamato", the route also very OOC. It did however have a nice ending

>>15135664
There's not enough romantic development. It takes almost the whole route for Azumi to really respond to Yamato at all. The wacky adventures in her home town were also kind of dull and out of place. Honestly though I've forgotten a lot of it at this point.

It's just not a good pairing. The writer really tried to make it work, but wanting something doesn't make it so.

>>15135664
More than half of route was how she loves hideo and trying to figure how they can make hideo fall in love with her, Which didnt leave any space for ichaicha with yamato.

As I said I dont blame them for this though, Azumi's character definitely didn't made as a heroine and I dont think they could do a different route for her.

>>15135676
>>15135756
>>15135772
Oh that's disappointing. I was going to play her route since I liked her in the original games but that sounds a bit painful to read

>>15135772
They might have been able to wrap that plot thread up in the Future With The Maids branch in S. That might have taken too much time though, I suppose.

>>15135863
You might as well read it if you like Azumi.

>>15135863
I wouldn't call Azumi's route terrible. It's not nearly as bad as Homura or Rinchuu's routes. It just kind of fails to sell Azumi/Yamato as a couple. There are good moments sprinkled throughout and the ending wasn't bad.

>>15135639
In a political context reactionary means someone who wants to return to the former glory of a previous society, as opposed to moving forward, or staying in the status quo.

>>15135958
"Reactionary" is a bullshit term since "moving forward" isn't defined.

>>15136021
Coming up with new paradigms and testing them, versus returning to previously existing political states, versus upholding where we are. It's not rocket science.

Just making doubly sure, but am I correct in assuming that only Hikari's route is worth doing in 見上げてごらん、夜空の星を?

>>15136040
You can't test them unless you create some sort of nation-wide lab, Orwell-style. And even then it's not sure if those paradigm change yields any new results in the long run. "Moving forward" is bullshit. It's a silly excuse for transition of power.

I'm trying to use the crack for Lovely Cation but I keep getting a CRC error when I run the patch. I have no idea what to do. Did anyone else experience this?

>>15136238
Nevermind, just found a prepatched EXE somewhere and used it.

>>15136157
I liked saya's more to be honest, but the other two are really only worth playing if you have nothing better to do and think they're cute.

>>15136157
>見上げてごらん、夜空の星を

Can't answer your question, but if you are playing this: What's the "Realtime 3D" part of that VN? I saw it on vndb and always wondered about that, as the screenshots looked nothing like that. (i.e. unlike Ar Nosurge)

>>15136197
I never asked for your opinion in the first place nor stated mine but if you insist.

>You can't test them unless you create some sort of nation-wide lab, Orwell-style.
It's certainly a way of doing it, but "you can't test them unless" is a baseless argument. The whole human history is a chain of implementation of new paradigms. How these have been implemented has varied throughout history, and many of these changes are slow and spontaneous enough you don't even notice them until you look back later. If your argument is true then we should still be living either in prehistory or in an Orwellian dystopia by now.

>it's not sure if those paradigm change yields any new results in the long run
It always yields "results". Whether these results are good or bad, is a different issue though. You don't expect perfect results whenever you try anything.

>"Moving forward" is bullshit. It's a silly excuse for transition of power.
Depends on who uses that argument. Literally anything can be used by people in power for demagogy. That doesn't mean the concept itself is wrong or can't be used for improvement by other people. In that case, conservative and reactionary ideas are both also used a lot in demagogy as excuses for power. Anything can be. The fact that you only consider paradigm change as the only possible source for this makes your argument very biased.

>>15136262
Thanks. I was wondering if this was one of those games where only the main heroine's (?) route was worth doing. I too am liking Saya more so far, though this is one of those times I'm lamenting the lack of harem or even just friendship ending with both. I'll play through Saya's route first then.

>>15136264
Probably mistagged.

Newfag question: Do you guys pirate your eroge? If so where? I've tried googling, and all I seem to find are games split up into 20 pieces on locker sites that take forever to download. Is there a like a private/semi-private torrent tracker for eroge?

>>15136320
"Japanese" version of the site where you'd normally get anime

>>15136320
bbs.mikocon.com

>>15136328
They're both ""Japanese"", one is just for lewd

>>15136320
Nyaa, Anime-sharing or Mikocon's site.

As for Piracy? Most here just pirate the games from what I can tell, there are a few that buy titles and merch from series they like
