Finished Tsubasa's (blonde) route in Kimi no Hitomi ni Hit Me. I'd like to split my impression a bit, as I feel there was an author-change between common and the route, though I could be wrong.

Common: Divided into 6 main-chapters, a prologue and epilogue, this was really well done. A bunch of people are somewhat forced to form a club together and "unite" their ideas of what they wanted to do in their club, but can't as there is no such club, nor enough people to make one. The chapters have a nice length each and all together is a good 200kb. The nice thing here is that none of the heroines are really annoying or anything like that and you always have a "goal" or something close by, making it flow really well. It's fun. One of the biggest issues a lot of comedy/slice of life works have is that they lack goals or such a goal is too far away. (Even good works like Daitoshokan sufers somewhat from that at times) The little chapters/arcs however work really well and are varied enough.
Aside of that the common route also mostly avoids overused tropes or uses them in a somewhat subverted way, though it still does a zoom in on the chests of three of the heroines. But you can't avoid all of this I suppose.

Tsubasa route: This was meh. I feel the girl wasn't even close to what she could've been based on the common route. The "clear goals" are no longer really there. It feels like it drags. Pretty much what the common route did well, the actual route here failed at. Tsubasa as she was couldn't really carry the close to 300kb on her own either. Half the route length would've probably been better.
The final chapter was some typical chuuni drama, but just as subverted as her own chuuni stuff mostly was. Which didn't work. She wanted to change her chuuni behavior herself as she realized it's not good when people look down on who she cares for because of that. Isn't that nice? Apparently not.


I'll still be doing Hitomi's route, who seems like best girl. "Futsuu senpai" is.. average and the pink haired girl is too flat for me to bother I feel. (no, not her chest)
Side note: The music of this game isn't bad. Especially one track is really to my liking.. if a bit unfitting for a moege. The power it gives to scenes feels out of place. Still, even high budget moege usually have completely boring OSTs, so this above average OST is a nice change.

>>16491890
Yeah, you can use their own downloader, the thing it wants you to download, but you'd have to make an account and register things you want to download into your cloud and then the program would let you download them.

But I'd recommend JDownloader instead. That's not miracle program either, requires Java to be installed, but in its settings if you increase the number of chunks per download, you can get good speeds from Baidu.

Oh I do have jdownloader, didn't know it works for this. Increased chunks to 10 but it's capped at 10kb/s still. Is this normal for baidu?
>>
>>16491921
Happens to me sometimes.

I usually go for 7 chunks, which often maxes out my download speed of ~600 kb/s. But sometimes it stays super low, yeah. One time it would be those ~600 kb/s for a minute or two then drop sharply, so I stopped and resumed the download constantly to get those minutes of full speed.

I wasn't able to observe what makes Baidu decide how fast it'll allow you to download at any given moment. Perhaps when it's late night in China you can get good speeds? Anyway, if you're not getting them now, just try later.

I finished Tsuki's route in hinonai. It was quite fun, Akeno is gold and I like the mood and music, Tsuki was neat and the ending was really fitting for the kind of game it is.

>>16491850

The problem with that site is that it only features accurate numbers. I don't care about that, so I just let a texthooker grab all the text while I use the skip-function. This also only works for text encountered such way, regardless of if you've seen it in a playthrough before or whatever, meaning certain games are impossible. It also grabs whatever it grabs. That can include name-tags, and may exclude certain things. (i.e. Furigana, certain lines.. whatever) For me all of that is enough, as I can get an estimate. But for a detailed site, that's not a good idea. So while I know for example that Senren Banka is ~2.4mb, or Tokihate ~1.2mb.. that's really just an approximation of the raw text, without counting new-line "characters" or names or whatever. If names are grabbed, I remove a bit so it "seems right". I also don't know the other stats, like lines, though I could get unique kanji if I'd care enough and put the whole script into one file.

That said, I suppose tlwiki also has its numbers all weird and you generally have to take +-15% to any number given anyway as you never know if newlines count and how the text was formatted. Take '&'
-Sora no Mukou de Sakimasu youni- , the first entry. 70k lines apparently. If newline characters count (which they do if you look at sjis scriptsize) and if the text isn't in a block, that adds 70k characters -> 140kb. If there was an empty line separating each line, for whatever reason, that's another 140kb. So 2.1mb could also be 1.8 mb. Fun stuff. So ultimately an approximation shouldn't be worse.. but I dunno about that. If I had the lines, I'd be less against it, but that's impossible with hook+skip. It's all in a block, more or less.


As for editing this list, you need an account and e-mail apparently. So if anyone can get an account there, then anyone should be able to edit this list.. not sure if anyone can get an account though.
>>
>>16492088
>The problem with that site is that it only features accurate numbers.
Actually it's not accurate. There's no vetting process. Taimanin Asagi has only one half as many lines as that site says.

>So if anyone can get an account there, then anyone should be able to edit this list.. not sure if anyone can get an account though.
Seems like you can request one
https://tlwiki.org/index.php?title=Special:RequestAccount
Also a lot of those numbers have nametags and such, scroll down. The [1] etc indicate that. And you don't have to fill out every field, some only have the kanji count. I'm sure it's fine with just the kb size.

And also finished Hitomi's (black) route in Kimi no Hitomi ni Hit Me.

This was way more in line with the common route than Tsubasa's route. Also only about 50% in length. (<150kb) It may be because of that alone that it worked better, after all it has the length I felt Tsubasa's route would've been better at, but I think it's also structured a bit better. Interestingly Hitomi also has a h-scene less, though that's probably just cut out and used as an "append scenario" for those pre-orders or whatever. Don't you love "DLC" being actually cut-out content?
The length strikes me as weird though. Hitomi is kinda the "main" heroine if you want, and those usually don't have a comparatively short route.

I think that's it for me with this title. Definitely not a bad moege. I especially like how this one doesn't really try to be too dramatic. Hitomi's route especially succeeded pretty well with that. The story was very "every day", there was a problem of sorts, but nothing artificially overdramatized. Just a little "feel good" story. I really don't know why not more moege try to borrow a bit from iyashikei "stories" like non non biyori or whatever. "feel good" is what moege should strife for, right? Instead you usually get silly overdramatized stuff that comes out of nowhere and nobody really likes. No need for evil chairmen of the school, unreasonable teachers that would normally get fired in a second for their behavior and whatnot.
>>
>>16493079
Rather than "feel good" the only emotion those kind of moege cause is "feel bored". Drama/conflicts are good when done well. In fact, the "feel good" feeling is strongest in games that have drama when it's tied up well (e.g. Asairo).

"feel bored" happens when it's done badly. Like I said, that was the issue with Tsubasa's route.

>>16493158

No idea. Never played other Giga moege. I can't even talk about all of it but if I had to rate what I've read:
common (~230kb)=8/10
Hitomi (~150kb)=8/10
Tsubasa (~300kb)=6/10

Moege ratings obviously. So take that as you want. Right now it sits at ~75 at EGS, which doesn't say much this early. But I feel that that's rather fair as an EGS rating. Provided the other two routes aren't both on Tsubasa level.

>>16493222

That smile is supposed to be weird/creepy. The art is fine. Not really super awesome, but fine. In my opinion, there's absolutely nothing to complain about in Shinsou Noise though. Also insanely consistent. (As in the CG quality isn't all over the place with chest-sizes changing and angles looking weird as fuck or whatever)

Kure's games seem weird. They seemed to have gotten weak ratings back in the day but when you look at recent reviews they're all fairly positive. Like Deatta Shoujo sits on 71 in EGS but the recent ones are all 80+. Suika is even funnier with recent reviews averaging 90+. I wonder why that is.

Anyhow my curiosity is picked. Anyone played these and wants to share their thoughts? Also what's the difference in Suika vs Suika A.S+?

Dokoiku and Ashisho are both pretty polarizing, the latter even more so. Suika is closer to a standard eroge, with magical realism and nakige elements (it's also only partly written by Kure), but it still has some of the strange horror found in the other two. A.S+ has additional scenarios and is probably the preferred version.

When it comes to VNs, one thing that must be remembered is that they're fucking gigantic compared to ANY other type of media. Even a normal old nukige can easily be the size of the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy. Da Capo 3 is twice the size of the LotR trilogy. Reading a VN isn't like picking up a YA novel and reading it on the couch in a couple hours. It's a huge time and effort expense, no matter the game, just cause they're so fucking long.

It's for this reason that I think approaching VNs with mindsets like, "I need to 100% it", "I do routes even if I don't enjoy them", etc, is so dangerous. Not only are VNs so long it's possible to wear yourself down on the entire medium by engaging in content you don't like, but the sheer time lost doing stuff you don't like is enormous. When there's as many good media out there as there is, it's a big loss I think to devote so much time to stuff one doesn't enjoy or stuff one isn't too into instead of focusing on what one does enjoy. It's better to read 1 route out of 5 moege and enjoy each one a lot than to read 5 routes in 1 moege but only really have a good time for two of them.
>>
>>16498788
I mean, this is pretty obvious. Especially for pirates.
You'd play every route in a game if you payed 8k Yen for it though. But if you did there's a good chance most routes are good, hopefully. Or you're rich and don't care.
>>
>>16498743

>>16498809
>But if you did there's a good chance most routes are good, hopefully.
Yeah I would only buy games that are good in every route anyway. Obviously impossible to tell that before buying but buying from established, favourite authors and brands almost avoids the problem entirely.
>>
>>16498788
>Da Capo 3 is twice the size of the LotR trilogy

Now now. The lord of the rings trilogy is roughly the same as a 3.3mb VN. To my knowledge, there is no single VN with twice of that of unique text. Though a clear comparison is obviously hard, as a translation needs to be done first and those can also be more or less wordy.

That said, VN are usually pretty long for sure. Moege are usually around 1.5mb +-500kb though. Only a few are actually longer than that and shorter ones are not full-price.. usually.

There's an update patch, version 1.02 if you didn't know about it. If you haven't finished her route, the ending and FD was super cute so I recommend picking it up again.
>>
>>16498903

It's 450k words. 3.3mb means 1650k characters. I don't think 3-4 characters for one word is too weird. (I'm basing it on available data of a fan-translation)

>>16498890

As far as words go, it would fit. But I wouldn't be surprised if those "words" are wrong in some way. We do know the localization of Trails in the Sky SC features 716k words, and that script is over 3m JP characters. We won't be able to know, but something doesn't seem right.
I'm surprised about the character count as well. It's listed as 30hours on EGS, which is just way too low for that. Sakura no Uta has ~1.6m characters and sits at 40 hours.

Yeah.. something seems very wrong here.
>>
>>16498743
As long as I like it. Usually I either like the whole thing or dislike the whole thing. Even if there's some variation across routes I can't really think of cases where I really enjoyed one or two routes and hated the rest. I don't play "moege" though/liking a heroine isn't enough for me to enjoy a route.
>>
>>16498990
You've got to consider that "hour counts" are not reliable at all, its not like people time themselves, they just finish and put whatever number feels about right. Plus with RPGs it's easy to miss a lot of content that still has to be translated.

It's just an executable if I remember right. I think I got the patch off holyseal, but official site probably has it as well.

It's not weird to think that, but keep in mind, eroge have "transitions", voices, sometimes time needed to "skip" through seen parts and so on. All of that adds time. The text itself though fits. To give an extreme example: "Lilycle Rainbow Stage!!!" should be roughly 1mb of text. However it is almost completely voiced, as in almost no narration. (probably less than 1%) An "auto-mode" playthrough apparently takes close to 30 hours, and given that it's almost completely voiced it pretty much means "listening to all voices and immediately continuing". With a solid reading speed you can finish lord of the rings in that time, even though it's three times as long.

This is btw the reason why Chaos;Child has a rather high average play-time in comparison to its length as well. It has "average" voice acting (protag voiced, but a lot of narration), but the transitions can take for-fucking-ever. And if you take skip-time into account as well.. oh boy.

I've seen people here suck it's dick for a while and eventually caved in and tried it plus it was on the recommended chart that gets passed around. It me a while to get into, it plays out like a dating sim with tons of choices you basically choose what to talk about and so on.

Still prefer ラブラブル in terms of comedy and characters but フララバ has a charm that makes me wanna keep going still don't really like it's comedy but has its interesting moments and it really gets you the player into their friend circle pretty well and you feel part of class, that part impressed me I haven't seen much eroge get me that involved in the classroom and made me care.

Still haven't finished it and I'm on himari's route people said it gets really good so I'm looking forward to that.

The comedy is a big thing for me, mostly enjoyed Kaho's route because of the banter. Still I like how you said you get invested in the class. Didn't have much of that in ラブラブル's side characters aside from pitying 店長 every once in a while. Thanks, adding it to my backlog.

I'm not sure about your choice of words here, but average reading speed in English for adults is 250 words a minute. (while people who read more are faster, i.e. college students are at 300/min on average apparently.. well sources are all a bit different, but 250-300 is generally the idea)
450k words -> 30 hours with 250/min. Simple math. Given that we are talking about a novel here and not speedreading or just reading to get certain info, needing 25-30hours for the trilogy isn't strange.

Perhaps you are a very fast reader, even with novels. Or maybe you are misunderstanding something and aren't actually reading the lord of the rings trilogy with its 450k words. Or perhaps your sense of time is seriously off. If you are however really just fast.. then it just further proves my point.

It's also a nukige so yeah tons of sex and my problem is that when developing the characters they tend to make them a bit too child-like that and some outfits make them seem too young.

It's been translated, but I want to play Tsukihime in Japanese.

Problem is I'm on OpenBSD and OS X only. The game itself would run fine with ONscripter, but every download I've found is in .ccd format.

BIN+CUE in here. Both original Tsukihime and Tsukibako.

_inmm.dll is this. You should use it to get looping BGM in the game. Since you can set it up to use whatever music you want per track, you should avoid Tsukibako's shitty music and instead use original Tsukihime's or the Ever After one.

I'd like a top50 of yuri VN from 2016!
I don't think even a top10 would be possible...

>>16502565

That list actually had more than enough not otome stuff in it, and I found it somewhat interesting to get a view from a female. Just as I find it interesting when there are female artists for eroge, or female authors. The list is a bit.. weird (even featuring seemingly random normal nukige), but still. I would assume females wouldn't be such a fan of the typical "wall" MCs without much of a personality or any plot-relevance, which a lot of guys can accept much easier. For example this month's "Hit me" has a library-club MC, just like the MC in Daitoshokan. But while the latter is well defined, the hobby is a big thing and so on.. you can easily forget the library part in "Hit me". I still think it's not terrible or anything and I'd even go so far and say that the MC is a bit above average.. though that itself is also already kinda sad given how blank he ultimately is.
That said, this is just a guess and the given list seems random enough that I'm not sure if it'd help in this specific regard.

After fighting with technology and sheer apathy, I finally finished Baldr Heart after starting it months ago. I read about this here before when it had just came out, but Nagi's route really dragged on a lot and I found myself constantly wondering when it would actually end, and for a time I took breaks that lasted for a week or more. Remarkably, once it actually got to the proper ending and the plot finally kicked in, I sped through it in only a day or two.

All in all, I have to say that I liked it a lot, albeit not as much as Sky, and if I had to pin it on one thing it would be the pacing of the story. Tsukyomi's route was pitifully short and we barely knew a thing about her by the end of it, and then much later a good chunk of the first half of Nagi's route read a lot like a proper Tsukyomi route. Little did I know that the second half of her route would be spent developing three heroines simultaneously!

Still though, it was a wild ride and I liked it a lot. That's all my blogging for now folks, catch you on the flip side.

Also, if they were gonna recycle Makoto/outright pull a Kanon like that, they should've made Nagi look the same as her real body, give her a chainsaw and sukimizu, and also have her be crazier. That would've been something else, I tell you.

>>16506682
I don't know. A lot of moege I've read recently have been very sexualized and looking over other moege that I see people reading they seem pretty sexualized too hence the half sincere conclusion that they're pornography. I mean it's a meme that moege have been jammed with super kyonyuu heroines for some time now. I've seen some iyashikei and they didn't seem to be too sexualized or have as much focus on lewd depravity so I would lean on iyashikei not being pornography but I can't say for sure due to inexperience.

The same reason why people like any trashy moege: cute girls and porn.
>>
>>16506727
While your sentiment is pretty close to the mark, I'd like to say as far as I can tell, Hitomi also has some above-average humor for a moege. Not the funniest game of all time, but the jokes aren't obnoxiously dull and it can be funny sometimes. Also, the pacing is much faster/tighter than a normal moege, it doesn't feel aimless much.

But yeah in the end cute girls and porn.

The OST and art are pretty good, the comedy is genuine and funny, The heroines are bunch of weirdos who got together and fun to watch to interact. the atmosphere overall is comfy. Even the MC somehow have his own character.
I would say this is a decent moege. I like it for the healing factor though, if you are looking for something complicated then is isn't for you.
>>
>>16506755
> the comedy is genuine
This is a good description of it. The comedy feels genuine, yes. Like it was genuinely borne from the raw character interaction rather than the writer trying to force boring characters to be funny.
>>
>>16506689
If by "ice queen" you mean cold-hearted ruthless manipulator there's Bansenjin's Nanten.
>>
>>16506717

This has nothing to do with "sexualized". Even sexualized moege ultimately still feature massive amounts of "not sexual" content, if they aren't nukige. And that content is one of the main-points.
That stuff is simply similar to iyashikei. Not completely though, as routes are changing into girlfriend simulators. (without user input...)

Porn is important for some for sure, but if moege would be only that, you can't explain all the all-ages ports, and I'm pretty sure most people aren't into spending 10 hours reading random stuff to reach porn, if that's all they care for. It's the package.
Though you can also add to this that moege isn't actually well defined at all. It's simply something people call VN that aren't obvious plotge, nukige or heavy drama. But this leads to problems every now and then. My favorite example is Hoshimemo for that, featuring typical moege stuff.. and a route featuring a heroine with psychological issues as in a major existential crisis to the point even sex is just there to make her feel alive thanks to the pain it causes. Very moe indeed. Not really nakige either, as there's not much that makes you cry. It's more.. gloomy? Still, for what's worth, it's considered a moege.. I think at least. It's probably the reason why vndb still doesn't even have moege as a category.
>>
>>16506795
All that in your post is why I only said "half sincere". I know it's not just for the porn that people read moege. But, the pretty heavily sexualization of moege is giving it some pretty thick pornography vibes in all aspects to me.

"Why do all the heroines have big tits" can only be answered as "to be sexy", and the heroines are the core of moege. It's a corruption form the inside out. Though, not complete corruption.

Yeah, big tits are a thing. And the flat girls strangely get the best characterization. Something's going on there. Material Brave even has a token titty character who is only there to press her tits against the protag every now and then, though has essentially no other role. Also only girl with naked tits in her ending cg. Obviously worst girl, by far.

That said, I'd assume "sexy" was always wanted with eroge. I'd say it's just western influence in Japan that made people there more interested in big tits or something. But it's also just the lazy way, and we know.. most VN are lazy. Doesn't help that so many artist can't into drawing big ones either. (Just look at Giga's Kiss series. It feels like propaganda for moderate chests... never read one though so I dunno if the tit routes also suck more than the other ones. Would be worth to try, for science.)

Really like how you are part of the class and your friendship grows, but kinda sad you don't spend as much time with heroines during the normal route other than the times you pick them to hang out with on their choices for their route. One heroine isn't really even introduced unless you pick her route. Still really like it may grow to love it, may give it higher score later.

It's lewd. Surprisingly lewd. Story started though. (being ~2hours into my first route)

Actually I'm confused about its lewdness. It feels like I'm playing some game with an ero-scene every hour or something. The boobs of the sister are so common, it's actually more special to not see them. Weird game.

And finished Hoshikoi's sister route already. Guess I was wrong with "the plot started", ~2hours into the route, that was already over. What followed was just sex. And the story remained kinda incomplete.

Honestly, this VN feels like a mess with a lack of a clear vision of what it wants to be. On the one hand it feels like a typical moege in many ways, has a decent backstory and whatnot. On the other hand 95% of its CG are lewd. The sister has 21cg. 18 of those show naked breasts in some way. From the remaining ones, one shows "see-through" nipples, one a panty-shot/ass and the last one still pushes you boobs into the face, just with clothes.. for a change. It's 5 ero-scenes, 3 of which are in the route.. which isn't THAT strange I guess. Weird is the heavy pee fetish though. And random other shit of the omakes. (naked pet play in the park.. really?)


Strange VN. I think it's pretty save to say that this combination fails. I hope the rest of the routes and final parts are better and not just randomly end to shove 3+ h-scenes in a row into your face. And by in a row I mean in a row. Expect maybe a 5 minute break.
Meh, I feel like this could've been really good, but someone didn't have their hormones in check or.. something. I really don't know..
>>
>>16507586
>One heroine isn't really even introduced unless you pick her route.
I thought this was a really cool idea, it really reinforced the idea that this wasn't a moege where all the girls just fall into your lap and start sucking your dick randomly, but one where you have to actively go out and romance them. The fact that you never meet a girl unless you put effort into trying to helps with that a lot. Plus it made her route feel really different from the others because you're seeing sprites and a story not even touched upon in the other routes.
>>
>>16506481
I thought it was okay. Not as exciting in regard to plot stuff as I was hoping. Aoi's route was definitely the best and had the most interesting ending. Ema wasn't nearly as good as a character as people say, she just seemed like a cock hungry slut rather than some kind of tragic character. The game started jumping around a lot near the end too and I would've liked a bit more of a concise explanation for what was up with that. I was really hoping that Sore would show up at the end and have some kind of dramatic confrontation with the characters, but that never happened.
>>
>>16508071

Imagine this a guy goes out to find a gf and meets a girl out of his league he goes through a lot of shit and eventually falling in love. The end.

Now imagine if the guy goes out to find a gf and instead meets a girl out of his league but decides to just talk to girls he knows and goes through shit ends up falling for another. If he tried to go for the other he basically would've ended up successful.

It just kinda feels like they are just what if he didn't have the balls scenarios.

I know this is the same for all eroge with a central heroine but for somebody who doesn't even show up it feels different.

I mean, that implies that Senpai is superior to the other heroines, when really it's just a matter of taste. Remember it is "Friend to Lover", of course the eroge is going to have him talking to girls he's friends with and it developing naturally into a romance. There is no central heroine.

No, like I said, it just has randomly lewd stuff (and likes to zoom in on tits and whatnot), but most of the game feels like a completely normal moege. You could give the girls.. normal clothes and stuff. The blonde girl always has her school uniform's shirt a little unbuttoned, which is never even talked about, nor does it fit her character. The miko uniform is lewd as fuck. One girl wears a maid-uniform at times, and the top barely holds her breasts to the point you see part of the nipples (pic related from the side, front would be nsfw...). Bras also seem to always slide so that you can pretty much see nipples.
It's not like koikuma where almost everything is about sex and you have more frequent ero. Ero is all chained together at the end of the route. It's just all over the top lewd pictures, often for no apparent reason. (The way the sister walks around a lot seems also rather forced, but at least it's kinda explained.. )

It's fucking weird alright. No idea why this was done. It was certainly not a good idea to do this in a relatively normal moege with somewhat more of a serious backstory adding some melancholy, also added by the OST. It doesn't feel like a moe nukige. And yet at least someone wanted it to be one. I can't really explain this any better. It sure doesn't fit well together though.

And Hoshikoi Sakura route done. Shit. Wouldn't even need to be enforced given how irrelevant this was, aside of a few minor plot related lines towards the end.

So, now for the good characters. At least have Tamaki be cute and do something good during Nagi and true, and I may be able to look back at this with some kind of positive feeling. Because when the gang is together, this can be genuinely entertaining.

Played some of it awhile ago but never finished it.

308KB, 1280x720px
Hoshikoi Twinkle done. Written with the mindset and produced like it's a nukige, but still isn't one, this isn't worth the time. It's a waste of potential with an underused plot/setting that either just ends when things should start or (for the most part) uses some tropes in incredibly fake and artificial ways. I REALLY expected better of its author. You can definitely feel his strengths in the work, but the whole direction fails so much. It's also incredibly in your face with pretty much everything. "Show, don't tell" is something that apparently was impossible.

Tamaki's route was as good as I assumed it could possibly be in this work, meaning it's okay. Disappointing, but considering how easily it could've been way worse. I liked the theme (two people supporting each other rather then just the dude helping the girl), but like I said.. it's essentially just telling that's how it is. You don't really feel their relationship.
Nagi's route was a bit longer and also mostly fine, if a bit artificial and insanely predictable. (to the point the whole last part doesn't really work..)
The "true route" was utter garbage.

Ero-wise the game is also weird. Half of the ero-scenes involve piss. Aside of way too much lewd everywhere, easily destroying supposedly emotional scenes as well. (let's just say, seeing an emotional scene with an ass in your face in the CG isn't too emotional anymore..) Art is inconsistent too. I feel that the art looks better, the less lewd it is. Probably chose the wrong artist for so much nsfw art.


Yeah, I expected better and I feel this did really have potential too. But oh well. Fuck it. It wasn't all bad. But the current 67 on EGS are there for a reason I guess. Still how the fuck did this happen with its writer. It's not the best one ever or anything, but I definitely think you could expect better than this from him.

I'll never understand why piss is considered a normal fetish that's perfectly fine to put in your vanilla moege and not a weird depraved fetish that only goes in specific nukige. It's especially bad as a lolicon since every lolige has it.

What do you even mean? All of his titles since Hoshimemo have been a flop (and arguably even that isn't very good). Hardly a surprise.

Anyone here played the Otoboku series by Takaya Aya? Wondering how they are.

>>16513317
It's a popularity contest like any POV on that site. Like G-senjou used to be at the top of the nakige list and might still be, not because it fits the tag best, but just because it was so popular.

The other thing to keep in mind though is that games that might've been buried treasure on release could've gained popularity since. But that doesn't fit Muramasa (not sure about Sharin no Kuni, Looseboy wasn't very known when it first came out).

>>16513370

Flop? The Seiiki series was reasonably well received for what it was, Sailove was also pretty well done for what it wanted to be. (just short) Also apparently worked at AstralAir, which I think wasn't so bad either? Don't know that myself. That said, what I know myself of him was all better than Hoshikoi so there's at least that.

>>16513363

I'm not sure it's considered "normal". This game however also features other weird stuff, so it's just part of the inconsistency of the overall work really. You got spanking, pet-play, anal, recording double V sign... you get the idea. Though all of that stuff is "once scene each". Piss is really dominating...
It's better to not try and understand what the fuck they wanted to do with this VN.

What was the consensus on Floral Flowlove?
>>
>>16513441
I've only played the second game. A must if you're into trap protags.
>>
>>16513601

I mean Sailove is a simple short moege without drama that only works if you like at least one of the girls. If you don't like the general idea of a moege, it's not for you, but otherwise? Bonus points for good art in a high resolution. (I don't know the native art res as the game doesn't really tell you, but it seems to be at least 1440p)
The first Seiiki drifted quite heavily into ero later on and was never anything but basic stuff, but again, if you like the girl, it worked. Didn't bother with the later ones though.

That's the thing with Nakahiro. Perhaps it was simple, but it still worked. Hoshikoi Twinkle doesn't really though.

So now that the dust has settled,

how does Baldr Heart compare to Sky?
>>
>>16514134
better gameplay and cuter art
>>
>>16514134
Better gameplay. Instead of strict tree you can just use a weapon belonging to one weapon family (each one has 3 weapons, 1 FEI action and 1 Force Crash) to level it up and unlock other ones, meaning you don't have to spend as much time using weapons you don't like. FEI Action is a new additional move mapped to new key you can use multiple times in a combo and varies from heat using attacks to hard lock-on to dodge and more. Battles in general have a shitton more foes at once than Sky.

Story wise it's entertaining enough, though not Sky level in my opinion. I also didn't like the main heroines' art at all compared to Sky, especially since all of them mostly used school uniforms (instead of varied clothing) which made them seem sort of bland and forgettable design wise. The non-character FEIs look cute and varied so I don't understand how they managed that.

Do you guys like ikemen protagonist or at least decent looking protagonist?

I mean it makes more sense for girls to be into somebody with a similar standing rather than really attractive girl going for the obese ugly slob.

I mean I'm playing フレラバ and the protagonist's gets called もってない and it really bugs me how he keeps being compared to ikemen or how he feels bad about his looks. If they didn't touch the issue I wouldn't mind but this makes me think he's ugly rather than generic. I though he was a just a hyped up funny but average looking dude but now I'm starting to think he's ugly as well.

I Wanted to try the liar soft games for a while.
Particularly the 'what a beautiful x' and fairytale series I really like the art and the blurb seems interesting.
I just have a question did the fuck up the fan disk hotchpotch by basically having every girl netorare the mc of their game as I see it has a sex scenes.

I mean they could fuck it up like what happened with unionshift blossom how they fucked over flyable heart and other games like that.
>>
>>16515220
If you care that much about ntr, those might not be the right games for you.
>>
>>16515238
I get its a fetish and stuff but I just want to know if they fuck over people who played the games expecting there to be none.
I mean one of those games in the fandisk is a love story, I just want to know if they fuck over people who read it.
>>
>>16515281
Even if it was NTR it's a fandisc so not like it matters or is canon in the story line so I wouldn't worry about it either way.

I love confessions
>>
>>16515366
I always can't stop myself from smiling really hard whenever I read a good confession scene. There's this weird sensation I get, maybe it sounds weird, but I get this sort of warm feeling in my chest.
>>
>>16515366
I hurt myself today...

Next day after that confession he says he likes her and gets this.

I know what you mean, they're often the best part of a VN. The part beforehand is introductions and comedy, and the part afterwards is sex and drama, but the confession is always great.

One guy posts about playing it in DJT and now everyone wants to be a cool guy too?

Yes. But I assure you there are mitigating circumstances in my case

actual 埋れている名作 obviously are on the lower vote range. I found a lot of interesting titles in the 10~20 votes.

A person linked me the 63gig torrent which had all the railsoft games but it only has one seed and I had found a keep2share source anyway. It took a day to download but I did get it in the end

It's pretty much just like Tsumamigui 3, only with an amazing heroine. Dat VA, my god, her voice is the ultimate incarnation of how a hot, lascivious adult woman should sound like.
>>
>>16517034

An underused one though.
>>
>>16517351
Well it is quite the niche fetish after all.
>>
>>16517360

Maybe. It's probably underused because of "muh self-insert" and "purity" though. Japan is still madly into super pure girls that if they "like sex" will apologize a million times for it and cry about it in shame. In nukige you may find something else, but that's usually the extreme other side with the title including "bitch" in some form.

Well, exceptions may exist.

I finished Muzaha's route in giniro. Overall, I suppose it was okay, though it definitely wasn't anything amazing. I'm mad that they copped out by starting the credits as soon as Mizuha starts skating, even though they showed pretty much every other match.

Are there any routes that are particularly good, or am I not going to miss out anything by just dropping it here?
>>
>>16517510
Every route has a different writer so it's hard to say whether any other route will be something you like.

I still don't know how to feel about this. Topic wise it's kind of overdone so unless they put an unique spin on it I don't see myself enjoying it too much.

I only played the little sister route, which was honestly a "wow it's fucking nothing" the entire time. I guess I'm supposed to enjoy the budding relationship between the two of the MC and the little sister, but the timeskip occur so frequently that it was hard to appreciate the growth of their relationship.

True, but still. If some anon is excited about a particular character's route, that might be appealing enough to give it a try.

I felt the same way with Mizuha. The timeskips were weird. I think something like WA2 did that a bit better, though admittedly that may not be fair comparison.
