Indeed, and the VA is really talented.

Tempted to read some other eroge where she's been in a larger role. Recommendations?
https://vndb.org/s279
>>
>>15500070
I've only read through the Maonama series where she's the main-ish heroine and she was okay there. I liked it since it's a game that catered to things I liked anyways but I don't know about other's mileage when their experience with the VA comes from Nanarin.

If moege is okay with you, I'd suggest もっと 姉、ちゃんとしようよっ since she voiced both of twins and they have a threesome ending.

She did a far better job at Sengoku Koihime's Hifumi, but since she dont have a "large role" in that I cant recommend.
>>
>>15500146
Oh forgot the Racial Merge. The heroine itself who voiced by her is not that interesting but the game is pretty good.

Maybe this isn't the right place. But I hope some of you can help.

So last week I decided to finally start and learn japanese.

I already memorized all kana. And am starting to study kanji.

The only problem I have is that almost every teaching guide and sources only focus on recognizing characters. And not on how to learn the actual meaning of the words.

I know this is /jp/ But i'm not actually familiar with the japanese language like a lot of hardcore guys that know thousands of japanese words but still can't read/write them.

The reason I want to learn japanese is so that I can finally play all those netorare eroge that are untranslated. So it's still relevant to this general at least.

>>15500476
It has Komorebi and Kagerou as side stories after completing the main game, but both are unvoiced. No character sprites either, though there are some CG.
The remake doesn't have Aqua After, probably because it would be too heavy for all ages audiences despite technically being an all ages release.

The premise of this game is pretty retarded, but I like the characters. Especially the ojousama and the gyaru.

>>15500556
It's hard for me to say something like that, because they're simply so shallow. At the same time, their characterization however shallow made the scenes hotter, so who am I to complain.

"Boring" is not a critique of the game, it's a statement on how you felt while reading, which basically means you're insulting yourself. People say a lot of books are boring when those books are certified world renowned literature. Your argument is not compelling.

>>
>>15501647
Hanasaki Workspring is the best one.
>>
>>15501647
Outside of stuff like Yuzusoft or other popular brands, WariNaki is among my favorites.
Everything about it just clicked for me, but I imagine others might find it boring because it moves pretty slowly, there's a rather awkward time skip a couple of hours in, and the common route takes up most of the game's length.

There was also Kokoro Rista! from last year that I really enjoyed, probably because I had never head anything about the brand and staff before and went in with minimal expectations.
The pacing was nice and brisk, and the text itself just felt nice. I really liked the look of the art as well and it had a bunch of my favorite VAs.
It's a sequel to an older game though, but it seemed like most of the relevant information was explained in the game itself.
I didn't manage to get said older game to work properly even in a VM, so I can't speak much more on that.

That's more charage IMO.

Actually what the hell is the difference between the two anyway?
>>
>>15501801
People call them charage when they don't want to feel ashamed about liking them.
>>
>>15501801
I think it depends on the focus of the routes and the overall story but the line in between them blurs enough that I'm not sure myself anymore
>>
>>15501791
>>15501801
Yozora was my 2015 top game but I hesitated to mention it because of this. If you end up with only the moe feeling for cute girls then you probably weren't paying attention to the game enough.
Yet looking for a game just for that isn't wrong either and there's games out there that do it better. Maybe Onikiss if you're into imoutos, for example.
>>
>>15501801
Not much difference, but charage not always focus on the moe aspect. I'd be much more inclined to call "moege" stuff by CUBE or Hulotte as they have that extremely fluffy atmosphere.
>>
>>15501536
It was kind of divisive, but I personally liked it. Good comedy and OST, high budget (1080p), likeable heroines and subcharacters, but it also gets serious inside the individual routes. Some people didn't like the dramatic style of the writing and narration which makes it feel more like a play rather than a novel, but it was intentional and some others liked that aspect. That's my opinion though so check out the trial to see if it clicks as it simply didn't with some.

The common route is almost bakage, though never to the point of Asa Project.

It's mostly comedy mixed with a bit of drama and some thoughts about the value of being alive.

It's great how her VA is in pretty much every nukige now. I think she got super popular after her role as Kaho in 牝教師4, so now she gets hired for everything. Does an amazing orgasm voice.

>>15503079

Dunno, I don't see it at all. Though I only know her from what I played of Tsui Yuri. Sounded completely forgettable to be honest. Might also be a fair amount of "not my style", but eh. That's a thing for any voice actor.
That said, I don't see anything to indicate she got popular after that one role. Had tons of roles before that as well.

>>15503137
Just played an Asa Project game (Hitotsu Tobashi). My analysis was that the common route was funny, but not really good. By which I mean, it made a lot of jokes that were funny, but the characters were bad and everything else uninteresting, which means every time a joke wasn't being made I was bored (which is pretty often). There's really nothing good about the game except the funny faces and a good number of the jokes. For this reason, I wouldn't really say it had a great common route, just a mediocre, funny one.
>>
>>15503179
Good comedy is really all you should expect from Asa games. That is, until the common route ends.

Never expect good characterization or interesting settings.
>>
>>15503186
I don't really see your point. There's no "expecting" here, it just is what it is - mediocre. Boring and shallow characters and whatnot are a negative impact to the game overall, even as a comedy game, especially has a comedy game.
>>
>>15503189
Because I don't want to make a point. The games are mediocre.

i'm really liking it so far and while the comedy does slow down and the story does start to drag during routes it's not as bad as i thought it would be. i only completed 実乃璃's route so far but even the sex scenes were genuinely funny there which i've never seen done before, usually it's closer to being so bad it's funny or outright terrible, this might not apply to the other girls though.

How do you feel about console only visual novels? Why do they seem to sell better than a lot of pc visual novels?
>>
>>15506092
Consoles i'm not sure, but I did read a couple on the PSP. It's pretty comfy laying in bed with that little widescreen and earbuds in listening to them talk.

>>15506100
Most "console" exclusive visual novels have handheld version as well.
>>
>>15506092
They don't, really. Only a few big names like Leaf manage huge sales figures like that. That said, they do have advantages in terms of the distribution methods available to them, and also the fact that the PC is a niche platform in Japan.

Any PSP ones you'd recommend?
>>
>>15506145

>>15506092
Development for consoles is generally much more pricey. This means only things with much higher potential are getting original console release. That's why they seem sell better.

I think I understand why there are so few adult heroines in games. It's really hard to feel pure moe love with them, because in the back of my head I keep thinking, "aren't you an adult? don't know ideal love isn't real yet and no two humans will ever understand each other meaningfully? what are you doing being so happy at that age?"
>>
>>15509462
No, the reason is because we are all lolicons and exclusively attracted to little girls, so there is no market for it.
>>
>>15509558
That doesn't even work as a joke because the most common heroine is a high school girl around age 16-18, often with significantly large breasts. Not lolis.
>>
>>15509558
That's not it. High school girls are out of the strike range of most actual lolicons, but most heroines are about that age.

I still think it's because most readers want to experience an idealized school life. The "fool around as long as you young" mindset is deeply seated in Japan. No fun for salarydrones.

Also, jaded and hard-boiled nurses make the best adult heroines.

If you had a ton of money, could you commission someone to translate a visual novel? I'd imagine the cost would be astronomical if they can to code and everything.

Does such a service exist?

Perhaps just a notepad translation would be more doable.
>>
>>15509573
>>15509582
To be fair most games will have at least one heroine with the body of a young loli, however much the game might claim they're 16-18.
>>
>>15509653
Uhhh absolutely? You could pay anyone to do anything. The cost will be in the thousands though. A notepad translation would certainly be somewhat easily doable but literally no one plays those (one exists for a cool game but its so tedious that it's never brought up in TL'd discussions, ever) so a translator would probably charge MORE to do that since no one but you is ever going to use it.

>No scene where MC does Hachiroku in her fun size body.
Pretty disappointed. Currently downloading the H-scene patch which hopefully amends that.

So unlike Hibiki's route which is POLITICS Hachiroku's route is chock full of TRAINS which while interesting is a chore to read through. The final dramatic segment felt a little bit out of nowhere (they're forcing parallels to the incident over fucking bad weather). The route does have the most character development on Soutetsu's side, even moreso than Hibiki's whose conflicts is more plot-driven than character-driven.

Hachiroku is cute as fuck. I like how she got a new name at the end. Her OP 's piano ver. is best track in the game

I'm going for Paulette's route next. I hear it's the best one out of the three, can anyone confirm? Also I'd like to know what this 'Grand Route' is all about.

No, corruption should imply actual evil/darkness, not just becoming a generic chinpo junkie.

Not him, but I generally enjoyed Remember 11 more than Ever 17 due to almost constant action and no boring segments whatsoever, plus really good use of choice system with shitton of bad ending branches. The only gamebreaking thing is the incredibly shitty and unsatisfying cliffhanger true ending. I can understand if they wanted create a "let the player piece together the important stuff themselves" scenario, but something like (spoiled game name just in case) Saihate no IMA pulled off something very similar, and yet also managed to have an ending that didn't make me infuriated for years.

>>15512158
I think you may not realize this, given the wording of your post, but you do realize Rance has a consistent story and characters? The only games that are debatablely skippable are 2, Kichoku, and 5D simply because the balance of "bad game" and "story" is awful, but everything after that and in between are "must plays" if you want to get into and enjoy the linear and fairly consistent story of the Rance series.

The people I responded to said it's fine to do just 01 before 03 though. I realize there might be minor throwbacks and whatnot, but I doubt it's necessary to enjoy the games. And isn't 01 a remake of one of the first Rances anyways?
>>
>>15512205
01 is a remake of the 1st Rance game - hence the name 01.
>>
>>15512205
It is fine to do 01 -> 03 because 2 is skippable, and those are remakes of 1 and 3. It's not just "minor throwbacks" and whatnot, it's literally the same characters appearing in a fairly consistent and linear story. You can still enjoy the games while skipping, because they're fun games, but you'll be missing out in a big and significant way. Especially if you went along with your original plan and skipped the friggin first game in the damn series.

By the way, I forgot to mention, but 4 is likely to get a remake in the same way 1 and 3 did, so waiting to play 4 until it gets a remake is an acceptable decision.
>>
>>15512205
Depends what you define as "minor throwbacks". Rance tends to have a ton of recurring characters, places, factions etc. and a surprisingly complex lore, but yeah, you could probably skip 2, but you could just read the digest version AliceSoft released a while back.
>>
Now that we know that the Yu-No remake includes the original game for free. Do you still hate it?
>>
>>15512613
I never hated it in the first place. Looks much better than the original and might actually be worth playing now.
>>
>>15512613
Yes.
>>
>>15512613
The designs just look bad compared to the original.
>>
>>15512625
I agree. Moe should be an industry standard.

>>15512639
Why?

>>15512648
It includes the original!
>>
>>15509462
Because games are for kids and kids hate adults because adults are superior to kids in any way. Adults generally have secondary role of stupid/weak/laughable characters or evil that got punished.
>>
>>15512232
Skipping IV isn't great for VI

>>15512158
Played them all

Big three are VI, Sengoku and Kichikuou
Then 03 and IX (IX is heavily text and character stuff and depends a lot on the earlier games)
Then Magnum and then 01 which is short

The rest are old or meh

2 is skippable but introduces a few of the main girls

>>15512676
In truth, kids generally have a huge complex towards adults. This is a result of the fact that kids don't want to admit that they're a kid. They look up to adults and see them as superiors and ideal role models; as long as it would rid them of the kid status. They have a tendency to put them on a skewed, unrealistic pedestal like what you're doing right now.

The Kanotsuku games (2 and Happening) are the closest I can think of. They're waifu simulators where you can take her with you to couple cafes, gangbang her with your school friends, or make her do AV if you want.

Sucks that most eroge have MFF but not MMF.

Overall dependent on how well the superman ex-assassin protagonist, humor and the heroines click with you. The first one is mostly about solving the girls' varying problems and traumas. I wouldn't really recommend playing the series for some sort of stellar overarching plot or anything like that, despite its attempts especially in the second and third game.

First was a pretty good charage, though I'd say only two routes were notable. Makina in particular was wonderful. Second was more of fan disc with a sequel hook rather than a proper sequel (most of it is non-canon extra content) and the third one is pretty much a full-blown action spy thriller with quite asspully and very, very silly plot and ending, plus extremely cliche antagonists. It's like a parody which is trying to take itself seriously. I'm still banging my head over how hyped I was about Rakuen's plot before its release.
>>
>>15520148
It depends on what you expect from it.
I enjoyed it a lot as a charage with some heart-wrenching drama.

It's enjoyable if you go in expecting it to basically be a ridiculous James Bond but for Otaku. Nothing more, nothing less.

No, Meikyuu was alright but Rakuen is utterly ridiculous with only a few redeeming points.Calling it a parody that's trying to take itself seriously like above is pretty much spot on, but doesn't even cover everything that was wrong with it.

It's too bad moege have better production values than nukige. Sex is more fun than romance.
>>
>>15520748
Nukige fans usually don't need high production values. They are playing for the sex, not for the quality.
Also nukige have more fierce competition with other media and especially various doujin games. That pretty much places a cap on how high you could go with sales and such things.

I guess the recent rise of more sex-orientated moege covers the ground between nukige and moege. It looks like they have rather high production values too.

Depends. Waffle nukiges are top-notch. Astronauts' too.

Then why does the art in Kyonyuu Fantasy get worse every installment?

Because Q-Gaku is no longer the only artist
>>
>>15520980
Fair enough. I don't like how everyone looks like they bathe in oil now either, though.
>>
>>15521005
Personally that only really gets bad when water is involved in the sex scenes, I more have an issue of the drop of quality in Q-Gaku's drawings in the last couple of games, most likely due to having less time to draw due to the increased amount of releases in the series. Probably why they brought more artists to the table as well.
>>
>>15521019
Yeah, I mean it's still good, but it's like he's simplified everything that shouldn't have been simplified. Like the elasticity and small details like folds in skin are lacking. Though it might just be an effect of the coloring, the end result is that the titties don't feel as soft as they should and just feel less like titties overall.

Not sure if this is the right thread to ask, but is there a way to purchase download edition games from DMM, if you are outside Japan?

Trying to navigate to ttp://dlsoft.dmm.co.jp/, either throws up a redirect error or 'out of region' error for me.

Newfag here. I saw the discussion regarding Rance and wanted to ask: I've heard that Rance02 is getting another remake, i.e. Rance002?

Rather than getting a confirmation, I believe one of the major people at Alicesoft said he wanted to do a proper remake for Rance II which would be called Rance002.

>balance patch for Rance02
It's a bit more than just a Balance patch, it massively changes the dialogue in some areas and brings the game up to speed with the current lore at the time

You'd be better to ask Alicesoft related questions on the general in /vg/ if you want detailed responses.

Should be relatively short. I feel like I'm towards the ending of a route of sorts and I've not spent that many hours on it yet. At most like.. 4?

Other than that it's a rather simple moege with a bit earlier than usual sex I suppose. Kinda weird actually. It sorta feels like they at first thought about making a nukige, but then decided "nahh, moege".

>>15528393

I just don't get it. NTR enthusiasts usually say they are identifying with the stealer, but the first person perspective narration of eroge makes the reader identify with the one being stolen from. I would understand if they were reading material written from the perspective of the stealer but this is almost never the case.

I can only imagine it is some kind of extreme emotional masochism, the sort of thing people like love triangle soap operas for, turned into a fetish thing.
>>
>>15528393
When NTR mainly became about busty, hot women being corrupted by lust. That's something anyone can get behind. You'll find that most NTR games/stories are more about hell yeah moral and sexual corruption, not about feeling bad for the MC (though those do exist)
>>
>>15528401
>I would understand if they were reading material written from the perspective of the stealer but this is almost never the case.
This is usually the case, though. Heck, in most games where the MC is significant, the perspective shifts to the girl most of the time, so it's the same deal.

>I can only imagine it is some kind of extreme emotional masochism
Yes.

>NTR enthusiasts usually say they are identifying with the stealer
Not my case. I identify with the MC because I'm a masochist. I don't want to sound like a purist but I don't think people who identify with the stealer really like NTR. Which can't be blamed, I mean you really need to love suffering to like it.

That, mixed with the corruption >>15528467 mentioned.

>>
>>15530644
It doesn't work like that.
For example, I don't know individual kanji in the word 薔薇. I won't be able to read them individually. I don't know what the hell they mean by themselves. I won't be able to write them or tell their radicals. I haven't studied them ever. But I can clearly recognize this combination as the word ばら with the meaning "rose".
And if you know Japanese you'll be able to come up with countless similar examples.

This is the same no matter how many kanji you've studied.
>>
>>15530701
Uhh, I don't know why you thought this was a good post, but I recommend thinking about things more before posting. For some clues, think about 500 kanji and how many common kanji there are, and additionally what it means to "know" a kanji.
>>
>>15530752
If you know the readings, what it looks like and what it means in various compounds, then you "know" the kanji. Whether you can write said kanji is actually fairly irrelevant.

It's perfectly reasonable to learn compounds/words, their meanings and readings in order to learn the constituent kanji. If you think otherwise then you're just outright stupid, because this is exactly how learning your native language vocabulary (and even grammar) actually works - intuitively.

Whether going from kanji->words or words->kanji is more efficient... well that's a different discussion altogether.

Anyway this isn't really the place to talk about this so this is all I'm gonna say about it.

I'm a different person from the original post. I don't know what hole you're talking about. Bothering to say there's a hole in what's a blatant fact and then not backing it up just makes you look like a moron. You're better off not saying anything at all if you aren't going to elaborate.

>I'm a different person from the original post.
Well, that explains why it seemed he went on a tangent unrelated to his original point...
>>
>>15530823
Someone claimed that "knowing" a kanji only from knowing words/compounds it's a part of isn't actually "knowing" the kanji. I claimed that was bullshit. How exactly is that tangentially related?

I disagree w/ why he said it of course, if that's what you meant by original point. If you know enough kanji via words, then technically you know a whole lot more than 500 kanji. In which case, fair enough. Doesn't change the fact that >>15530752 is dumb.
>>
>>15530838
>Someone claimed that "knowing" a kanji only from knowing words/compounds it's a part of isn't actually "knowing" the kanji. I claimed that was bullshit.
You just projected that.

Whatever you say bud... Whatever you say...
>>
>>15530983
If you read >>15530701 again, he's saying he doesn't know the kanji despite knowing the word. So, do you see why I said you went on an irrelevant tangent? You even contradicted him.

So I've just recently begun reading untranslated VNs, and have been looking at DMM to buy them. Are the prices there just particularly high, or is that the standard? Even for older titles they're priced like new game releases at 5k ~ 8k yen. Are there any other stores recommended here?
>>
>>15534283
Yeaaahh, it's like that everywhere. Sorry. The only way to get it cheaper is to buy second hand (usually about half price). VNs are stupid expensive for the content sold in my opinion, but then again it's precisely because they're stupid expensive that they get made, so it's a rough situation.

>>15534283
Nigga you could try going on Mandarake and getting some of them second hand but you kind of get to realize why most of people in this gen are piratefags.

better off buying new games on release or buying the rare "discount" version that pops up sometimes, but not all companies release those especially not in a timely manner

What.
>>
>>15499958
I'm reading the sequel to this game right now and I'm not sure how to feel about it. On the one hand, the production values are even higher than the first game (admittedly I'm not extremely well versed in eroge but this is by far the most beautiful VN I've ever played) and I enjoyed the fact that there aren't forced H-scenes every 30 seconds that break the pacing, but I can't really get into the story which feels like it's dragging on, and the characters just aren't as entertaining as the onis from the first game (though I like Youko a whole lot, and the twins are occasionally funny as well). Also the MC looks like a dork. However, there were some genuinely creepy moments which I wasn't expecting and which were not in the first game (except for the big twist I guess). Does it pick up later on? I'm probably only like 5-6 hours in and I read somewhat slowly.
>>
>>15535878
Akeiro is significantly larger than Nanairo with each route (pretty much) going in different directions, stemming from a well sized common route. So, if it feels like it's dragging on, it's because you're actually reading a common route this time, and that's how common routes be. That said, I actually found Akeiro's common route to be pretty packed with action and well paced so our opinions diverge significantly, I had a great time the whole common route, never got bored for a second. Perhaps it helps that I prefer Akeiro's cast to Nanairo's, particularly because Shuuji is based as fuck and Kana is a more interesting, funny character than Kotori in spades. Uhh, anyway though, the routes are classic Fumi, I would say they're worse paced than the common route especially when they temporarily converge, but there's enough interesting stuff going on that they're not bad to read, although I found the plot of Kana's route to be friggin terrible and only saved by her fantastic H-scenes and character in general.
>>
>>15535348
You should have. Questions about learning Japanese and related topic are frowned upon here.
>>
>>15535910
Yeah, I definitely got the feeling that the game is much larger considering I'd pretty much finished a route in the original by the time it took me to get to where I currently am in the sequel. I agree about Kana, it seems that she's less one dimensional than Kotori was at least (Kotori was the only character I sort of disliked in the first game because she was too flawless to the point of being uninteresting which was a shame because she was forced so hard as the main heroine and her route was the only one with real effort put into it) so I'll keep playing. Thanks for sharing your opinion
>>
>>15535925
Also I forgot to mention this but something that stood out to me was that this is the first VN I've read where the highschooler characters actually talk like real actual Japanese highschoolers do (or at least approximate it to a great extent). I have firsthand experience from exchange study in Japan so this was a really pleasant surprise but the again, maybe there are other games that do this too and I'm just inexperienced

LxC1 and 2 are pretty much just focused on dumping H-scenes so goign with whichever has hotter girls to you is wise. I think LxC2 was better written in general, though.

Pretty Cation has a writer that's plain inferior to LxCs so it doesn't get as much attention, and Purely Cation is a mess of generic art and DRM scandal so I haven't played it myself (although it's scenarist, orgel I think, is pretty good).
>>
>>15536018
>>15536037
Oh, right, the romance is pretty good, I was really touched by Seine's route in LxC2 in particular, but the game is clearly focused on sex, most CGs are for sex, there's append stuff with more HCGs, etc. I think LxC2 gave more attention to romance, maybe because the writer was trying to improve after LxC1.

Gotta disagree.. just went through the nurse's route in Lovely Cation 1 and the build up to the confession was god awful. There wasn't a scrap of chemistry between them. The only enjoyable part of the whole thing was the two times the Nurse joked around lewdly with MC, those were real cougar moments I enjoyed, everything else was snoozefest.

As >>15535991 to be honest I was expecting way more positive recommends since a couple people were talking about them as best moeges etc, but from the comments so far they don't seem that good for sure. Well I guess I'll just try and see with my own eyes.

totono?

>>15536678
They arent even moege, they are dating games focused mostly on flirting with girls, going on dates and having sex. What Cation game you want to play depends on what girls you find cute the most. So check the heroines for every game and start from there. My personal favourites are LovelyxCation2 and PrettyxCation2.
>>
>>15536678
It's important to recognize that these games are actually orientated towards straight up 1 on 1 dating and romance. In that respect, they're streets ahead of most moege when it comes to romance, which usually have long non-romantic comedy routes and then weird, melodramatic routes. So, with the perspective of "all VNs", The Cation works are certainly stand as romantic works of impressive quality. However, when you zoom in, they do have their flaws.

I don't blame him for thinking they're moege, people like to throw around that term pejoratively for some reason around here.

>>
>>15535317
hate answering questions like this but I played through WA2 when I wasn't really proficient enough in the language and I regret it now.

Didn't really struggle with it or anything but I went back and reread a route a while ago and it was clear that I didn't get everything out of it the first time.

Also it doesn't help that it's long as fuck.

I only played Aya's route in LxC1, but I found the pre-confession part really charming, especially when the protagonist and she aren't even in proper speaking terms yet and gradually warm up. The chemistry with both her and the protagonist being loner video game players was great.

Mainly yes, though I hear there are some exceptions in certain heroine routes (in LxC1 only?) that apparently have some bad drama. From what I played LxC2, PxC and PxC2 were pretty much drama free. And yeah, the games have practically no common route whatsoever, only a relatively short introduction part and then you're expected to choose a heroine to aim for. Other heroines hardly even make an appearance outside their own routes.

Aya was my favourite LxC1 heroine. In the nurse route, MC being a loner pretty much completely stops being relevant and it's like never mentioned.

Meguru is the best girl in any eroge in 2015.
The rest of the heroines are shit though. Including Nene eventhough I like Kiritani Hana. And I'm still mad the megane teacher didn't get any H-scenes.
