How are you planning on masturbating?
If you're desperate to read something, I'd just pick up a good all ages VN, like EMIT. I read that on my lunch break at work for a solid month, it's safe.
If you absolutely need a 100% you-will-not-get-caught lewd game, the best one I know of is Saru Getchu 3.
Seriously though, move your monitor.

General tips: If you use Windows 7, you can click on the show desktop button on the bottom right, and it will minimize all windows. If you click on the button again, it will return all windows to how you had them.
I also recommend plugging a pair of earbuds into a spare audio port so that if you accidentally yank out your headphones the sound won't go out through the speakers.

I kinda want the whole package.
It's cute, like she keeps thinking about the guy she, rolls around in her bed thinking he's a 馬鹿for not noticing her, acts really shy when he does something and they touch.
With that she wants to do it with him so she writes mcの専用 on her leg thinking this and reminds herself that if she's going give it to somebody it's the mc, and dreams about their first time.

Along with other stuff like making obento, trying out of her way to get near him, making chocolate, getting really jealous when he's with other girls.

The problem has always been that the "authorities" don't know what loli is and anything that looks younger than a grandma with saggy tits is child porn.
Also how about you read the laws of your freaking country instead of asking here. A lot of places don't care even if it is loli since they can differentiate between real life and fiction.

My rule is if I can't get it up without touching my dick, I won't fap. Overfapping isn't bad for you in a medical sense, but well I think it kind of makes you feel like shit / demotivated. Basically you aren't fapping because you're horny, you fap to get the reward at the end.

Just finished Silverio Trinity and it was pretty damn cool.
About what I'd expect from Masada's co-writer/pet wizard/後輩/自称爪牙No.1 and only like 2 years of time since his last work.
Made me wish Light would give Takahama the same environment and time they gave Masada when he was working on Dies Irae.
Guy clearly has the potential to make something big.
>>
>>16546014
What made it good? It just looks like chuuni for the sake of chuuni to me. What I like about Masada is that his games transcend that and become something actually thematically engaging. So basically what do you think of the game if you were to remove the 演出 and cool visuals.
>>
>>16546042
Takahama might be living in Masada's shadow, but he doesn't call himself 爪牙No.1 without reason. A chuunige built on basically nothing but respect for Masada wouldn't be complete without some thematic exploration.
Anyway, while Masada is clearly a "陽" kinda guy, Takahama likes to focus on the "陰" side of things, like the weakness of mind and body that comes with being born inept, the weight of victory, the damage that could be done by a lack of "generally undesirable, yet highly humane" emotions such as hesitation, the madness that is heroism and the pain of those sacrificed "for the greater good".

Trinity inherits most of these themes from Vendetta, and though the newer game has a lot of autonomy and could be enjoyed standalone, I'd recommend against it.
>>
>>16546177
You say Takahama but from what I can tell the Silverios have like 3-4 writers? That must be really inconsistent. Another huge thing in favor of Masada is that he writes and drafts these 3+MB behemots all by himself. That guy can think of calling himself his 爪牙 when he drops his underling slaves.

>>16545668

...Takahama himself is an underling slave to Masada.

Likely didn't want to get credited so he wouldn't ruin the perceived purity of Masada's works.
As that page writes, he's quite the small person. A true wizard who loses himself in the presence of girls(also recall reading that, when Masada invited him to a brothel, he went full orz and begged him not to force him). Wouldn't put it past such a person to refuse sharing the spotlight with someone he so admires.

And if that's not 爪牙No.1 material, I don't know what is.

I liked hianta's route.
It's meta in a sense, you know how Anime girls act different from regular girls from things like expressions to gestures? Well her chuni makes her have no friends during class. So she doesn't know whether to stop and act like a puppet and act like regular girls or not.

My problem with her is that they have their first h scene while hianta still thinks minato is a girl. And he's to scared to tell her, it left a bad a taste in mouth.

He is just a trap version of your everyday moege MC though. Sure those aren't "cute", but he's just as much the tsukkomi and everything typical else as well. Even if he isn't super perverted (although wanting to fap in class is a bit worse than obsessing over panties every now and then I feel..) it's still all.. generic.
Or, in other words, it's boring.

But perhaps that's what people found interesting.. or whatever. Hell if I know.

>He is just a trap version of your everyday moege MC though.

I think you don't understand the point of traps they look and act so feminine and they pretty much are girls personality wise but with male genetilia.

Far from male tsukkomis and far from everyday male mcs. From looks and the way they act.

If they acted like a guy I don't think me and others would be into them, that would kinda be gay. They don't act like guys except for a few things even then it's so miniscule you see them as a girl.
>>
>>16548572
>I haven't heard much of a positive reception of it so far.
Have you been living under a rock or something? My and assumably many other people's reaction as well has been that it's the best title in the series when it comes to gameplay, and the story is at least well entertaining level even if doesn't reach Sky heights. Definitely my favorite game of 2016. Though I also dislike the new heroine art as well.
>>
>>16549393

I'm not sure if it's so normal to see a trap as a normal girl. I really don't. But that goes a bit further than I'd wanna write about in this thread here. As in what's gay and what isn't..

So, in that regard, let's just say it like this: I don't the trap as a girl. At all. It's a guy. His voice sounds like a guy's voice to me, regardless of him being voiced by a woman. His moans are as arousing as the moans of any dude. (=zero) And trap games can still be interesting, as in there's enough "value" in there being a trap-protag. Though I'm not touching "all trap heroines" games.

If you're a man who's into girly men, that means you're gay, or at least bisexual. I don't see why trap lovers are so desperate to deny it; it's not the 1950s anymore, no one cares if you're gay.

I mean, I've played and enjoyed number of games with trap protagonists, where the trap aspect serves as a source of comedy or whatever, but I can't say I've ever felt attracted to the protag himself. He's just there to collect the girls, same as non-trap protagonists.
>>
>>16550011
That's like saying you're gay for playing games with male protagonists.
>>
>>16550022
Right, that's my point. A trap protag is a male protag. If you're seeing a trap protagonist as one of the "girls" and feeling sexually attracted to him, that's what's gay.
>>
>>16550046
The thing with anime traps is they usually aren't guys crossdressing, but rather, the artist draws a girl and then adds a penis in the end. Body shape, voice and everything is a girl. *Not* being attracted to it would be weird. With real life traps you can always tell that they're a man even post hormone therapy, but the world of 2D deletes that factor.
>>
>>16549828
>sounds like a guy

Really?
To me he sounds like a girl, I guess you could say they sound like a really really feminine guy like most traps.
Still its a female voice actress.
>>
>>16550093
I can only speak for myself here, but while you're entirely correct, once I know it's a guy all that goes out the window. He's simply a cross-dressing guy from that point on.
>>
>>16550046
>>16550022
>If you're seeing a trap protagonist as one of the "girls" and feeling sexually attracted to him, that's what's gay.

Wait what?

I'm seeing them as a girl not a guy and am attracted to them because of that.

Look assume they are a robot instead with no gender.
They look like a girl, talk like a girl, if I'm attracted to this I'm not attracted to the robot qualities but to the feminine qualities.
Fuck, you could put anything down there tentacles, a control panel, some weird shit or even nothing, that doesn't matter, if they have female qualities I'd be attracted to the female qualities of that person.
I mean If it was the case it would be like saying I was into octopi solely because what they have down there, ignoring that I was only attracted because of the female qualities and not attracted to tentacles.
I might be attracted and not even have known they were a robot or octopi-kind unless the game tells me or I see.

It's the exact same thing for traps except they have a penis and not tentacles, and I'm not attracted to either.

Also this says it pretty well>>16550093, traps are girls that a artist just stuck a penis on afterwards. They can take it away, it even doesn't exist since it's 2d and the artist would have draw them without clothes for it to exist.
>>
What I can't understand at all is trap protagonist games where the trap isn't an active participant in sex scenes. Why the fuck go to the length of having a cute, girly protagonist but then in HCGs have his face hidden / have him be a floating dick, or even worse him not talking much as if the game was a regular eroge. Or him suddenly becoming top in all H-scenes if he is more of a bottom in regular scenes. Even worse is completely unvoiced trap protagonists.

What's the point?
>>
>>16550183

Same. Reason why I also feel that the voice is simply that of a guy's even if the very same voice could probably be used for a girl as well.
>>
>>16550388
What games did this even happen in? All the popular trap games people usually talk about like Tsuriotsu, Otoboku, Otome Domain etc have voices and lots of CGs with the protags face.
>>
>>16550409
For having so much sex TenshiHane has whopping two HCGs where the protagonist's face is shown, neither of which have him naked and both of them are just pushing a heroine down before actual sex.

Also, didn't both Ruitomo and Tsuriotsu have unvoiced protags before patches / fll voice editions.
>>
>>16550409
Not him but for hiantas's sex scenes minato's face doesn't show up for any in otome domain.
Maybe a few times but I really wanted to see their face during sex. Sure they have their own art but don't really show up during sex only for one scene.
>>
>>16550409
Not him but https://vndb.org/v5635 and https://vndb.org/v5153 have unvoiced protags (though he still has a face). Still, other trap VNs I know are fully voiced (Otoboku 2, Tsuriotsu, and ensemble's Otome series). Koitate too IIRC.

Finished Daitoshokan. Best moege I've read so far, but still with weaknesses.

The biggest weakness is probably romance. It's the moege typical "one-sided" thing. Protag wants to help out girl x, that's it. It's not a two-way relationship, just one-way. In this game however it's way worse than usual, as you have way better and genuine relationships, so the romance only feels like a third wheel.

Route-wise Shirasaki and Sakuraba were kinda alright. Shirasaki is simply a more fun character outside of her route and Sakuraba.. I didn't really care about.
Senri however was the best route of the game, in my opinion. It even used the shepard idea.. as the only "normal" route. It also built two strong relationships with friends of hers, though the one with Kana ended up being covered more in depth in Kana's route which is second place as far as routes go. Senri and Kana are one hell of a great combination.

The true route then was pretty disappointing. Not only do you another "common" route style story, which is also the worst of them all thanks to creating an extremely forced petty villain (and kinda killing a good character in the process..).
But even ignoring that.. why are there endings for the 4 main heroines? They are all WAY inferior to their main-routes. Short and shallow. I hope they don't continue these in the fandisc, but stay with the main-routes which are waaaaay better in all ways.
Then best girl Kodachi. She.. got the short stick. So fucking much. Because of all the "common" scenes, her "route" was actually just short. The shepard part was not satisfactory covered. Her issues with her feelings were also not really covered and at one point a switch was hit and she did a 180° from "fuck you, go away" to "take me! *smile smile*". Yeah, she was all messed up and confused, but how to do this better showed Kana's route in the very same game. It was just rushed, it felt like several steps were skipped.
Apart of that, if you wanna play all of it, prepare for tons of repeated content.. which is the worst if you ask me.


Still, even with those problems it had some genuinely great characters, a bunch of good humor, an awesome cat and is generally a lot of fun with even good charage moments (the relationship between Senri and Kana was especially great in my opinion). The true route was disappointing for me, but.. well. The curse of best girls.

>>16550518
Kana is the best girl, Senri is cock-thirsty slut.

I know you guys here hate nekopara but have you see their Kickstarter? They managed to get nearly a million dollars for a single ova.
I mean I like the doujin, but a million dollars for a single ova?
I never knew anime cost that much, this isn't a series but single ova. They had a single episode going for 20min costing 100k dollars I mean even then i think that is way too much. I thought that was the price for a full length eroge.

Thoughts?

Some games are just like that, it cant be helped. For example I also cant believe how Teaching feeling made almost 2 millions dolar without any kind of voice acting & story & writing etc, but it somehow did with just the pat button. Sometimes logic doesnt work with those.
>>
>>16550466
It's mostly an evolution of the genre to have trap protags fully voiced and featured prominently in the CGs.

Of course the idea originally was having that would be too obstructive for the need of self inserting to the protagonists but makers pretty soon found out their audience, at least a good chunk of them, don't really enjoy the game that way. Thus the full voice patches and now new trap games being released with fully voiced protags and sex scenes that are focused on the protags.

>>16550011
The issue with arguments like this and similarly the "you can't insert into a trap/girl protagonist so the experience is ruined" argument is that it fails to differentiate fantasy from reality and imagination with experience. I just played Kanojo Step for a while and enjoyed it quite a bit despite the protagonists being completely unrelatable to me personality wise but I have no issue with "self inserting". Same with everything. You can "self insert" into an octopus if it was well written. It's really stupid to try to pin your own mind to an identity.

Hey guys I want to ask something, why is 18 considered the age for adults?

Regarding eroge, outside the West there are people who would get angry the girls aren't 18.
As anything under is considered a child.
Even buying them you have to be 18.

I mean humans and animals go through puberty we are ready for children at this
age then why is it looked down to want to have sex with them?
Wouldn't it make sense if you'd want a young partner?

I mean take eroge most of the girls you see are teenagers yet you'd be considered an ephebophile for being attracted to them. Some people would find that abnormal.

I get lolicon as they look like kids but in other eroge they would would been teens.
I realize they're not real yet but am curious about this issue.

Why is 18 the age?
When humans develop during puberty, before they reach 18 can express the sexual feelings thoughts and actions. Yet being anything sexual with them is wrong.
>>
>>16553628
Adulthood is firstmost characterized by legal capacity, the capacity to act with legal consequences. Legal capacity assumes reasonable and independent manifestation of the will, reasonable disposition of your own legal relations and responsibility for your own actions. A man acquires it at a certain level of physical and mental development, which, according to Roman understanding, coincides with sexual maturity (pubertas). Since sexual maturity does not begin for all people and in all regions at the same time, puberty was originally established in boys on case to case basis, and was manifested by the ceremonial act of assuming the toga of manhood (toga virilis), and also involved taking off his bulla and a shave. It happened between the age of 14-16. For girls, on the contrary, establishment of sexual maturity was not required and the beginning of their legal capacity was the end of age 12 (of course, it was very limited since women were under a lifelong tutelage (tutela mulierum); however those limitations with time weakened and in the later Roman law remained only as a formality).

This was the old standpoint on establishing maturity, which even in the imperial period of Rome (roughly after Augustus in 27 BC) was advocated by one of the two famous schools of legal tought, the Sabinian school. The other one, the Proculians saw a need for a fixed age for maturity and determined it to be end of 14 for boys and 12 for girls. This later view was also partially adopted by Justinian in his Digestae (6th century).

Amongst the immature (impuberes) under that age are children (infantes) "who can not yet speak" (qui fari non possunt - meaning they lack the capability to pronounce old formalistic legal formulas), in other words, a complete lack of legal capability. Justinian designated the end of age 7 as the limit of infancy. That was the first period of becoming an adult in the eyes of the law.

The second period was immaturity above infancy (impuberes infantia maiores; qui fari possunt) and they had only limited legal capacity, they couldn't marry or make a will, and they could only enter into legal transactions that bring them benefit (such as gifting) and not transactions which include a reduction of their property, possessions or obligations. For those kinds of transactions they needed the participation of a tutor (tutoris auctoritas). The mature (>14;>12) were in the early days of the Roman state had full legal capability and if they weren't girls, their tutelage would stop.

This early onset of maturity, which also occurs in other ancient laws, proved to be unsuitable for developed and more complicated economic relations. Therefore lex Plaetoria (around 191 BC) introduced a new age limit and a third period which lasted until the age of 25 (minores viginti quinque annis). This law also provided a criminal and a popular (meaning everyone can file a lawsuit) lawsuit against those who would abuse the inexperience and naivety of a minor (14<25) and deceive them to enter into a damaging transaction for them. The praetor also provided more protection for minors through his edicts as well as the possibility of legal reinstatement (restitutio in integrum) with the effect of retroactive nullification of the legal transaction.

Because of those means of legal protection, minors did not enjoy the confidence of third parties in commerce. Therefore in the classical era of roman law (roughly around the era of the Principate (27 BC - 235 AD)) the magistrate would, on minors request, appoint them a curator for that specific transaction with whom the above mentioned means could not be as easily used. So starting from Marcus Aurelius (161 AD), a custom developed of appointing permanent curators for all minors transactions and in the post-classical era a permanent cura minorum was created for all persons under the age of 25. Finally, Justinian equalized cura and tutela and de facto moved the age of adulthood to 25 and the legal capability of minors was almost as that of impuberes infantia maiores except they could marry and make a will.

Also, in the post-classical era, a minor under the age of 25 could attain adulthood with the emperor's permission (venia aetatis) and would gain full capacity to conclude legal transactions (except alienation and hypothecation of immovable property) and would be freed from curatorship as well. In the later Empire (from Constantine) venia aetatis was granted only to men over 20 and women over 18.

>>16553628
That's a debate way outside the scope of this thread, but the short answer is that that's the law, so eroge have to comply, even if it's just the obligatory disclaimer when you start up the game.

>>16553645
No I mean I get its the law I just don't get why people get worked up over it, that person isn't 18 how dare you be attracted even though it's normal.

It's not strictly against the law to make eroge depicting sex with explicitly underage 2D girls in Japan, right? It just makes it hard to officially publish/advertise it.
>>
Why is insider so obscure? His scenario is higher quality than normal ones I think and Lovely Cation 2 was really popular.
>>
>>16553628
Laws are made by old men. Men with wives, children, social bonds etc. Most of these men won't fuck young girls openly - they'll get crucified by society (doesn't stop them from hiring high school escorts in secret, though).

Instead they're worried about their daughters getting fucked - aka jealousy - by younger men. With women getting more say in law, even more so - who wants competition, right.

Hence the laws.

>>16556076
Add KKK AnH's extra chapters after normal KKK.

>>16556076
I didn't bother with the side stories myself so I can't comment when would be the best time to play them, but Amantes Amentes also has a new extended true ending for the final route that Acta est Fabula doesn't have. There's a choice at the very end, one leading to AeF ending and other to AA ending. KKK's all ages version also has side stories and extended epilogue.

Also a question of my own. I haven't played Kaziklu Bey yet and I remember hearing somewhere that it's supposedly a continuation to a drama CD or something? Is this true?

Don't you feel for character that gets picked on by the group for being stupid or funny I really hate that.
Those characters make boring daily conversations interesting.
I mean I get if they were being perverted, or harassing sure fine. I'm sure you all have seen a character like that in the eroges you've played

But if they were just making bad puns and having a time making jokes or even being stupid by their personality why do they pick on them I feel so bad I honestly want to hug them.

I'm talking about people going through puberty as with all species on earth puberty is basically the body saying I'm ready to make kids.
Like take most eroge we read here most girls are under 18. Their bodies are ready to have kids and they fuck.

Why can't teens buy porn or if you have sex with a 17 year old its like having sex with a minor. Why is 18 considered the age for adulthood that was my question.

Quick question in most eroge I've played girls have pain the first time they have sex and don't enjoy it, why do they continue?
Can they just lose their virginity the first insertion and they just rub themselves and they guy off. Then next time when it doesn't hurt they have proper sex.
I mean if the guy loves the girl why doesn't he just wait when it doesn't hurt?

Am I missing something?

It's just love and self-sacrifice. The girl loves you so much that she wants your first time with her to be a pleasurable experience and she doesn't want you to hold back for her sake. It hurts like hell for her but that doesn't matter as long as she knows you're enjoying it. It's a statement of how strong her feelings of love are, and it's beautiful.
>>
>>16560795
Yeah I agree it's romantic but I mean hold back a little.

Like picture it like this

Mc holds back and does his first time calmly because he loves the girl and doesn't want their first time to be bad as they know it hurts for her. So he takes care and does things slowly and treats her right or just inserts to take the virginity and when they are both ready to go all the way.

Vs

Mc releases his desires and ignores the girl's pain bleeding and wails to fulfill his own desire.

I get what you're saying she's holding her ground to satisfy him. But still imagine your dick bleeding, and in pain while having sex you could have sex later when it's not bleeding or in pain.

Not him but I heard it's hard to read. In what way exactly?

Is it something like you can read the text but don't understand what the fuck is going on?
Like if I picked up a book on advanced economy or western philosophy. I can look up words but not fully understand it without background knowledge on the subject and form my own opinions.

Is it just worded different/old Japanese text like hanachirasu or something.
Or is it more chunige like silver vendetta?

>I can look up words
Are you sure you want to look up words?

I know the DJT school of <reading> is that you look up majority of the words as you go in some flawed J-E dictionary and then try to force yourself to remember them through Anki, but I don't believe that's an enjoyable way to consume media. It will ultimately turn everything you consume into a slow grind. To grow your ability you definitely need to do that to some works, but you shouldn't do it to the ones you really want to enjoy.

Studying enough so you overcome the need to do this is the first step towards reading Dies Irae. To see if you're there you can and should test yourself with this >>16561456

Then the second step is overcoming the game's reliance on references to Western literature and such. Those are rare enough that I'd just look up as they appear. In many cases the game even explains them enough by itself, or they appear as furigana to a kanji compound that gives you enough of an idea to understand them.
>>
>>16561445
It's worded differently. There are plenty of unusual words, but that's not what people refer to I think.
I haven't seen it in any other VN author to be honest. The closest thing was maybe Albatross, and the second closest would be some specific parts of Shumon Yuu stuff. While not as "grandiose" as the other anon pointed out, they both felt overly convoluted.
Haven't read Silverio but from screenshots getting posted it looked nothing like it.
>>16561547
He was clearly talking about looking up complex words that one would not encounter while studying. Where would you learn stuff like 鏖殺 or 那由他? When have you last seen 喇叭 not written in kana? That's what I got by just clicking three times on the prologue video. I'm pretty sure Masada himself sometimes just goes through a thesaurus to find whatever he needs. Actually, that's what most professional authors do anyways.
>>
>>16561621
>Where would you learn stuff like 鏖殺 or 那由他? When have you last seen 喇叭 not written in kana?

In the games you read previously. 鏖殺 and 鏖/皆殺し are obviously the very basics of chuuni lingo.
>>
>>16561547

If you think you can study a language till 100% comprehension.. no. You can't. You aren't even able to do so for your mother-language.
Expose yourself to language. A lot. And more. It's why it's best to live in an area where the language you want to learn is spoken naturally, so you have to interact with it all day. Like that you learn "what you need". And you will still see new words every now and then, although they become more and more rare and are more terminology than normal words, or "old/dead language" or whatever.

It's not part of this thread though. Provided people aren't outright stating they use automatic translations or make it really obvious they shouldn't be reading stuff in Japanese (i.e. posting a lot of BS and obviously not understanding what they "read"), we don't care here. That's best for everyone involved, too. Pointless drama.
>>
>>16561647
>If you think you can study a language till 100% comprehension

Clearly I don't, otherwise I wouldn't specify my dislike as being towards looking up "majority" of the words. When that majority becomes a minimum of obscure stuff, you're good to go. Presumably you have to look up such minimum even in your native language.
>>
>>16561668
Pro tip: To get to the point where you only look up the minimum you first have to look up the majority.
>>
>>16561679
And doing that in the games you want to enjoy isn't an enjoyable thing to do.
>>
>>16561668
>>16561679
>To get to the point where you only look up the minimum you first have to look up the majority.

Right, that's pretty much what I wanted to say with that. You "always learn" anyway. Sure you are "bad" at some point, but the only way out of that is to expose yourself to the language. A lot. Dictionary meanings of words are crap. You don't want to "translate" a language, you want to understand it. It starts with translation, it has to, but that stops at some point. And you can only get that by reading/listening or whatever.

Did you have language lesson in school? You read and speak way before you are done with vocabulary. It goes hand in hand. After some school years vocabulary tests and whatnot stop and you gotta do it yourself, as the "base" is built, after which it's only exposure. Mind you it's a pretty small base, too. After all school language study is super shoddy. Or in other words, if you don't invest into the language learned there yourself, it's barely enough to somehow hopefully get by should you ever need the language. But it's not gonna be fun. Japanese people learning English is even worse as the languages are so different. Which is why they usually suck so much, unless they lived some time in an English speaking country or have hobbies that utilize it a lot.

I've seen that a couple of times, but usually it only makes the protagonist's dick even harder and then he usually ejaculates another several gallons of semen everywhere.
>>
>>16561934

>sexually inexperienced protagonist cums instantly by touching the girl's pussy with his dick.

Are there even scenes like it that in VNs doesn't involve NTR? I know premature ejaculation doesn't exactly makes a hot scene for majority of people, but I like the awakward situations on MCs first sexual experience with a girl because I feel that what's supposed to happen on someone's first sex, instead of the MC able to jackhammer the girl for minutes and make her cum on the top of that.

She did indeed mention that in a later scene, to which the protagonist says she doesn't have to since he doesn't want to hurt her every time they have sex.

Oh, also the MC from Doshikuro. In fact a big plot point was actually to cure him from premature ejaculation. Urara's route was hot as fuck, she actually uses that as an excuse to steal him from Hime.

mildly interested in this as well, i've seen so many mediocre sex scenes the arousal part is completely lost. might as well try for the 'realism' or at least comedic/d'aww moment angle.

Don't diss hes a cool mc

He doesn't premature ejaculated in other routes. Her route was bullshit

Red heads route he has sex for Fucking hours I repeat hours, and he doesn't prematurely ejaculate. How alpha is that?

Also he's an ikemen so it doesn't matter either way, he should lift though
>>
>>16561934
I don't know why but thats pretty hot.

I'm imagining a really buff guy just rubbing the tip of his dick on a loli's キツキツ. She's so scared if it'll fit or not and he keeps rubbing, and she's all struggling with her little body and really feels from it and then she cums.

The buff guy says its wet enough and tries to put it in but almost immediately ejaculates all over her and she's panting from just cumming and in a state of relief that it didn't enter.

Yeah, I don't think Akeiro's protagonist less of a man because of premature ejaculation. I actually think more games should have that sort of thing since it's usually weird for a heroine to be 初々しいマグロ女 in her first sex scene whereas the also virgin protagonist handles her like an expert. I think it completely misses the cuteness of both parties being tumbling lovable idiots who don't know what exactly they're doing and fail at having optimal sex on their first try.

And besides, in that scene the protagonist goes for a second shot anyways so it's not like it ends up being a ドM type ridiculing matter or mark of shame for him.
>>
I might be losing it but sakura no uta's songs sound so familiar like are they remixes or just other version of an existing song?

I mean one time I was playing a guy came up and asked me the song's name, it seemed familiar to him, he said if it was a certain songs name but I forgot what he said.
Now when I play I hear the music I feel like it resembles all sorts of songs I've heard before.

Third guy here. The game, especially most of the things after the common route are pretty divisive, some like and some hate them. I didn't like most of the routes either, but you should probably just play them and form your own opinion if you were left wanting more after the common route ending.
>>
>>16563318
I wouldnt have minded having to go back and do the other routes if they were actually good. There was maybe good route that I enjoyed and the rest felt really forced.
>>
>>16563973
Normally I agree with the "read it and decide for yourself" attitude, but in C;C's case I didn't really want to read the heroine routes but did it anyway and now I feel I wasted my time and should've just gone and read something better. So if you want to read them, sure, but there's no need to force yourself through them.
>>
>>16563973

If the game would just not be so fucking damn slow with literally everything. If you could reach the new routes within 5-10 minutes and if you don't enjoy it THAT much skim through the text, it's different. But we are talking about HOURS of pure skipping (and annoying "breaks" all the time where you have to do something for the branching) and skimming is also impossible as you can't advance the text faster than like one box per second or so, let alone the effects.. and possible crashs. (remember to quicksave often.. god I hate that game engine so much)
>>
>>16564321
I found the game would crash after switching from windowed to fullscreen, so I'd skip text for an hour in windowed while doing something else on the other monitor, then switch to fullscreen to read, a few seconds later the game crashes and I have to do all that skipping again. What a disaster.

Gusha no Kyouben has scenes like that. Hell, first H scene with Orino doesn't involve penetration at all. They both kisses each other until she was out of breath because she wants to kiss MC as long as possible, they carefully both touch each other's body then slowly focused on parts where they both feel good when touched, the MC cums seconds after she touches his dick, and then he can't continue and falls asleep. The scene really feels like two adolescent couple discovering their sexuality. When he did take her virginity in the second scene, he instantly blows his load inside her. But after that the scene played like what >>16562596 said though, where he continues to plows her until he cums again. And there's the fact that the girls actively describe their feelings during the sex in each route, which is impossible to happen during someone's first time, but that's just me being nitpicky.
>>
>>16565290
Yeah, Gusha no Kyouben handled it really well. You obviously have to strike a balance between realism and erotic sex scenes, so they kept the clearly inexperienced and natural-feeling sex but portrayed it in a way that's still plenty arousing for the reader.

I really like how in Utawarerumono 2, all female characters don't all immediately fall in love with Haku, and in fact many have crushes/love other people, even major female characters. For instance:

- One main female character is looking for love in general so she clings to various men throughout the story
- Nekone is a massive brocon, and Haku is not her brother, to be clear.
- One main female character has a crush on Oshutoru cause he's so cool, so she blushes whenever he walks in

Stuff like this basically. It honestly feels weird, but good, to see main female characters feel romantic/feminine emotions for characters other than the protagonist. I think this is kind of helps display why a route structure focused on pure love with heroines can be detrimental to a story. These characters either couldn't exist or would have to be significantly changed in order to be objects of pure vanilla love to satisfy arbitrary routes nowadays. By eschewing that, Utawarerumono 2 develops characters that aren't necessarily 10/10 deepest of all time, but are interesting and a fresh break from all the main female characters in a game immediately falling in love with MC and never showing any romantic affection for any other male ever.

As a side note, I also think U2 is one of the only VNs I've ever read that didn't feel as if its cast was truncated due to sprite limitations. There are so many characters with sprites, it truly feels like an expansive world of various individuals, as opposed to say... to compare to another fantasy, as opposed to Aiyoku which feels empty with very few characters with sprite. If compared to a normal game like a moege, holy crap, not even the same league, with there often not even being sprites for side characters, only for fuckable heroines.

>>16566819

I played only 1, and that was already exactly like that. I don't think the game's structure allows for more. Of course it's not very interesting when you have like 15 random clichés, most of which are throw-away characters to play the roles of victims/murderers and won't really matter for the story anyway. Would be fine, if the cases would be exciting and fun to play, but at least Danganronpa 1 didn't manage that very well. Most of the time you immediately knew who did it and the game still forces you to go through several obviously wrong ideas and shit. And when then the protag suddenly sees a tiny detail like a minor piece of plastic that he has seen before lying at a different place.. it's just stupid.


Danganronpa is arguably hard to pull of satisfactory, players have different amounts of "intelligence" and ability to logically piece together a given mystery case, but I feel Danganronpa is worse than it should've been. For one thing, the "Watson" should exist for the people a bit less intelligent, so the protagonist/detective doesn't have to be a dunce a lot of the time which just clashes with actually solving mysteries. Well, "muh self-insert" maybe..
>>
>>16566903
Not him, but your thoughts mirror mine. I'm baffled that Danganronpa 2 and 3 get as much discussion as they do when 1 was so strikingly mediocre to me. Baffled as in, no clue how 2 and 3 could be so much better by the same guy.

All the games a weak start, boring middle but a strong end.
Though I agree 1 was the weakest entry, the mysteries and story weren't that great. All the murderers were incredibly simple and pretty easy to figure out. Even then you only grow attached to a few characters and they don't get along as well.

As for 1's ending everybody knew that the outside world was bad from touko, who knew about the outside world, but they had hope and went forward. It's not really the same as as they already knew the situation just not the extent, while in v3 they don't what which is which it's 50/50 they don't if it's bad or good.

V3 improves on this by miles, you grow so attached to the characters that it feels so weird not seeing them when they're dead. You see them pouring their hearts out saying they're not the killer, you see stupid interactions and them grow as friends only to betray and murder, you see the detectives themselves refuse to listen to their own mind and reasoning but to their heart due to how close they get.
Some are really emotional some aren't but the mysteries really improved. In the later games it's like if they got a decent writer.
My problem as I mentioned before is the really good parts come at the end. The beginning is weak but the is so strong.
I even got bored and wanted to stop half way but by the end I wanted more.

It's a really crazy ride.

Obviously moege fans accept that there are stories where every female character doesn't love the protagonist. You don't see them burning down cinemas or libraries.
They just have a Don't Tread On Me attitude when it comes to pure love stories. They do this because it works. There is no game called "Doukyuusei 3".
I'm not even saying what they are doing is right, I'm saying that if you post on /pol/ and say "I am in an open relaitonship with my wife and she has a boyfriend named Tyrone" the reason they called you a cuck is because you asked to be called a cuck.
You're taking a realistic, some would say nihilistic, view on love when talking to one of the very few groups of idealists on the subject in the world. /pol/ cares about preserving the white race, /jp/ cares about Haruka and Sakura and Asuka.
You keep saying what you want about VNs, but you will never have a productive discussion with people by going after their closest held beliefs. If you keep talking about the kind of stories you love and getting called a cuck until the cows come home, I'd respect you for it. My hope is that you understand the other point of view, and know why they keep calling you a cuck.
>>
>>16567457
I understand moege. I understand fanatical devotion to virginity. Etc. I get it.

What I don't understand is taking that outside of the context of moege. And saying any media wherein a female character isn't in love with MC is cuck media. I get moege. I don't get taking moege logic to the real world and to plotge and so on. I mean, do they think of themselves as cucks because they meet girls in real life that don't love them?
>>
>>16567457
Not him but are your guys' stands on harems?

Are the girls cucks, too?
I am generally interested.
>>
>>16567560
*what are your guys' stands on harems?
>>
>>16567510
They don't think they're cucks because they know they take no pleasure from a girl loving another man.
They meet you who says
1. Pure love stories have some flaws
2. There are some situations where having a girl not love you makes a story better
3. I just read this story and there were girls in it who were in love with other men. I am happy about this situation and I prefer it to the idea of them being in love with me instead
And they think, "Wow, he's happy that a girl is in getting fucked by a guy that wasn't him. What a cuck! I'd better let him know!"
If you want to change their minds, you will have to convince them that plotge are made better by having girls that are in love with men that are not you. Never going to happen. This is the opposite of their core beliefs. Their core beliefs are Love=Good, Obstacle to Love=Evil, Girl's Heart Being Torn Between Two Men=Obstacle to Love, Ideal Man=Man Who Would Die For Woman He Loves=Me, Other Man=<Ideal Man
Other Man=Girl's Heart Being Torn Between Two Men=Obstacle to Love=Evil, Me=>Other Man
Therefore the best thing is for all women to love me

This is what they believe. To change their minds you have to find fault with the chain of logic above, and that chain of logic is supported by every bad thing that has happened to them in their entire lives.
I don't agree with calling people cucks, I would be happy to sit down to you and explain why I believe the above. But that's too off topic for this thread. This is a thread about VNs, not the people who read them. I'm only doing it now because we're on page 8.

>>16567560
>>16567568
They vary between complicated and hypocritical.
Obviously you have the guys with waifus who don't want harems at all.
Then there are people who think you can do it if you love them equally and they're all okay with it, which is of course hypocritical, and most of them do know that.
I personally accept that 2D anime girls are not real, they exist only as ideas that make me happy. By loving more than one I learn more about love and can love them more. As they are ideas that make me happy I can choose to imagine them as loving me unconditionally, even though I love them conditionally. This is because they are better "people" than I am, pouring out love in all directions like the sun pours out light. Luckily as I am celibate, devoted to loving them rather than real humans, I have no commitments to follow and can also pour out love in all directions. I strive to emulate them and do this, but to do that I need to understand love as much as possible. Thus
More Girls=More Love=More Knowledge of Love
Me(Ideal Man)+More Knowledge of Love=Even More Ideal Man?!?
More Ideal Man=World is Better Place
Ends Justify the Means

Which is obviously a rationalized argument, but I think it's sound.
>>
>>16567601
>1. Pure love stories have some flaws
I didn't say that, I said
>I think this is kind of helps display why a route structure focused on pure love with heroines can be detrimental to a story.
Notice the difference. CAN be detrimental to A story, not "pure love stories are flawed".

2 and 3 both are flawed because unlike moege, plotge don't have self-insert protagonist. Again, I can understand self inserting in moege, but not plotge, which has a strong protagonist and is not self inserted - notice in my post I said "Haku", referencing the protagonist, and not myself.

I don't want to change their minds about enjoying moege, but I do think that if they look at non-self insert, non-moege stories, and think one would have to be a cuck to not have every female character be in love with the protagonists, that they have some problems.

I think the core of our disagreement is you pushing self-insertion onto plotge when it never was a part of plotge/ most non-moege media. The "chain of logic" is shattered by the lack of self insertion in these media.
>>
>>16567625
But they do self-insert into plotge. Maybe they shouldn't, but they do. Jesus, the protagonist of that game is an amnesiac, of course some of them are going to self insert.
They're different than you. They don't fully understand your point of view, they hate what they do understand.
You don't understand their point of view, and think you're better than them, not without some cause.
The problem is you think you're both reading the same book, but you've interpreted it so differently from each other that without a little empathy you'll never get why they hate you.
>>
>>16567650
Uhh, that would make them wrong and nonsensical, without any chain of logic. "I am going to pretend to be every male with the most attention in any work of fiction" is not a defensible nor rational mindset to have when approaching media. Like I said, moege are moege, other things and not moege, and you can't defend or rationalize people treating non-moege like moege.

In the first place, such people don't exist. That guy was just calling me a cuck as a joke.
>>
>>16567659
You may find this wikipedia article interesting:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Death_of_the_Author
The takeaway is that many people disagree with you and think that the only wrong way to read a book is to be told how to read a book. This is a huge concept in literary philosophy and is still argued about today.
They will continue to self-insert no matter how silly you think it is. It makes them happy. They ignore the aspects that don't click, and rewrite it in their minds so they those things didn't happen. If reading is a "silent conversation" (also an interesting part of literary philosophy), these people have the habit of interrupting the author and correcting them.
There is no law that prevents them from doing this, and if there was one they would break it. If you don't like them doing this, you need to change their minds, but to change their minds you have to understand what position their minds are currently in.

Another option is to just ignore people who call you a cuck, which is what most people on 4chan do.
>>
>>16567705
This is the same thing as people pretending to be chairs or apache helicopters when they're not. At the end of the day, they're delusional. It doesn't have anything to do with death of the author. They are NOT the protagonists, and pretending to be them is plain delusional, no if ands or buts about it. With moege, the MCs have so little personality and are given so little attention, it's easy to ignore them and self-insert in a fantasy, and I respect that. But with plotge and other media, MCs are strong and defined. Self insertion, at that point, is as nonsensical as pretending to be a chair or refrigerator. I find a human pretending to be a refrigerator indefensible and irrational. Like you said. "They rewrite it in their minds". That's plain irrational, close to insanity, close to a mental disorder. And, indefensible.

When someone tells me they're a refrigerator, I don't feel the need to change their mind, I just ignore them. I made that post intending to clarify my position to someone who is a fan of moege but not of plotge. I was not intending to engage in mental combat with a mentally ill individual convinced they're a refrigerator.
>>
>>16567625
>plotge don't have self-insert protagonist.
Then why do many plotge still hide the face of the protagonist during h scenes? Checkmate, cuck.

That said, I think calling someone a cuck just because they're ok with secondary characters having their own lives is a bit much. I remember that eroge which assured the readers on its advertisement that every character in its world was a virgin, including the protagonist's mother. Seriously, secondaries should just kill themselves.
>>
Ironically moege and eroge in general cured my lust for purity. I've seen so many virgin heroines and seen so many situations where girls love the protagonist for no reason and broken so many hymens that purity has simply lost its appeal. I'd almost rather every heroine I encounter be used goods so that I don't have to see one more bloody vagina. With the oversaturation of purity clearing the clouds of bias from my mind I feel I have come to attain a more healthy (and dare I say, normal) view on sexuality. Clearly this doesn't happen for everyone though.
>>
>>16567896
>Then why do many plotge still hide the face of the protagonist during h scenes?

It's not about hiding the face. There are enough porn-games with the protag's face every now and then.
The idea is that guys don't want to see the guys during porn, but the girls. Regardless of anything else. Which is why the dude isn't hiding the girl with his body, and the angles are generally chosen so that a lot of the girl (what's supposed to be attractive) is shown.

I mean what, are games like "Daitoshokan", "Koi Suru Kanojo no Bukiyou na Butai" or "Kanojo x Kanojo x Kanojo" now suddenly games for cucks and/or not suited for any kind of self-inserting because they show the face of the MC in some of the ero?

Aside of that there's also that a lot of artists can't even draw males well at all. It goes so far that some games have separate artists for that..
>>
>>16567601
Bullshit. There are female players who like reverse NTR so it wouldn't be a surprise to see women who enjoy cuckoldry. A woman will never be called a cuck because cuck has to do with masculinity and preserving a man's "alpha male" position, or a position where he has exclusive attention from girls (in the case of moege) and the use of it as an insult in the west comes from the insecurity of losing that position/role, especially if willingly. Nothing more, nothing less. That's why it's not surprising that otaku who sperg out over this are the most insecure, obsessive and emotionally unstable ones.

it's kinda weird if there's absolutely none there and she's one of those typical moege 'what is sex' types. either i'm supposed to believe that 2D girls don't hit puberty, or that she shaves and waxes religiously despite barely being aware of what a vagina is in the first place.

i mean obviously realism is not a high priority here and it's something that happens so often it stops being a question and just becomes the expected norm, but it's still a bit weird. nothing wrong with a little fuzzy patch.

Am I missing the joke?
>>
>>16569631
I don't really care but it triggers me slightly when I see a オマンコ which is clearly hairless and the text implies hair. It's not because of sexual reasons though. I have the same reaction when the protag implies a school cafeteria is packed with people and the art shows an empty room.
>>
>>16569858
Please I haven't been this confused in a long time.
男の娘 is just a trap right? A boy that looks like girl. So they gain muscle and develop as a guy but look like a girl.

Or are they a girl with a dick and if they have a dick do they have balls?

I'm so confused I asked /int/ and now they're talking about Trans and how eroge and doujin have different meanings for futanari and so on.
>>
>>16569858
The joke is literally there. Choosing a positive delusion trigger at that point gets the protagonist to fantasize that Hinae is actually a trap.

If you haven't played C;H or C;C, there's points called delusion triggers where you get a choice between positive / negative one (or ignoring it altogether to skip), that affect what type of situation the protagonist fantasizes. Choosing the former usually gives you a humorous or erotic one whereas choosing the latter usually triggers violent or otherwise self-deprecating fantasies.

I don't think so.

Good but recycles too much. Common route heroine chapter story gets recycled in the heroine routes. Main-story gets recycled in the later part of fandisc. It's pretty bad.

Okay I just finished Makoto's route in sakura no uta.

First off the game gets really boring at times while other times amazingly worded.
Her sex scenes and interactions with Nagoya was so cute. She also changed over course of timea bit.
She was my least favorite character going by her design and typical tsundere act still I want to say she grew on me but didn't she was just cuter than I thought.

Also after the whole issue with kei's art, the pacing felt way off. Like they were just cram things in to make it so the relationship progressed, when it was it was just awkward. It was pretty poorly done in comparison to rin's route. The whole issue still had some holes in it like how they dealt with Kei or told him the truth.

The game's music, art and story is amazing. Perhaps one of the best I've seen. But the programming, the engine is bad. I don't know how they Fucked it up but they did.
No going back to previous dialouge, scenes transition so slowly I thought something was wrong, not enough options, weird transitions, I even found some text issues.

It's like somebody with really an amazing story, music and art just decided to put it on the shittiest engine they could find.

I have a question for you guys.

How should the main heroine route work in the games where routes open up after finishing others?

I've wondered about this.

Games like sakura no uta, Dracula riot all allow the main heroine to be romance first then allow other heroines to be romanced after their routes. Wouldn't the new heroine be considered the main heroine as their route is on the true route?

Meanwhile games like hatuyuki sakura or chronoclock lets the main heroine be locked until the other routes are done and their route is the true route.

Finally you have another category where the true route doesn't have any heroine but a mix of all of them but the protagonist ends up with none. Like hanasaku workspring.

Which do you prefer?
>>
>>16571792
My bad
>*Dracu-riot
>>
>>16571792
Locked route orders are only good for scenario heavy games. So in those cases, it should use whatever method best fits with that particular game's story.
>>
>>16571865
But I'm asking you prefer if you had to choose.
I kinda would like there to be no true heroine route. And at the same time no true route.

If there had to be a True route I'd have prefer where things continue on but hints the heroines like the Mc or have some wacky ending when they end up confessing and he over hears or something.
>>
>>16571792
>>16571892
I'd like to see a plot-heavy game where you get to pick which heroine you want to take with you on the true route. Granted it'd probably end up being roughly the same thing with the names swapped around and maybe a scene or two tweaked but it's not like eroge really have replay value, right?

Main heroines are usually either safe, bland and perfect, or so good you wonder why any of the others exist besides padding. So just give me the usual variety pack of girls, lock the true route behind everyone so that you have to try them all out for a spin, and then pick your favourite to see through to the end.

the plot of course being the kind where you need to do all the other routes to collect all the dragon balls or whatever.

>>
>>16571934

That's my answer, though. If the story is so shallow that you could easily substitute one way for another, it probably shouldn't have locked routes or a "true" route in the first place.

They have really good H-scenes if you like sweet lovey-dovey sex.

Does anyone know if the EU/US Steins;Gate Vita releases have a Japanese text option?

You're aware that Makoto's route is the only one not written by Sca-ji?

Has anyone here read 死に逝く君、館に芽吹く憎悪? It has a 7 on VNDB but i'm not too sure. Also asking about ひとりのクオリア.

>>16571507

Hoshimemo was pretty boring
Irotoridori was a significant improvement, though it still had quite a few boring segments, even in the true route. Shinku's h-scenes were cute as fuck.

>ひとりのクオリア
one of my favorites from that year

>Irotoridori was a significant improvement
It was even duller.

Well there we go
The romance was amazing though even though it was rushed and half finished.

Quick question while on the subject on sakura no uta.
I'm just skipping the text when it lets me on multiple playthroughs. So I don't reread anything I did before, is this not recommended?
Like I might new realize things rereading the same text as I've gone through other playthroughs. Did you guys reread the common route for each girl's route?
>>
>>16572606
once is more than enough and you want to be done with rin and makoto's route asap so no
>>
>>16572614
Okay thanks I'm on rin's route the skipping just stops for her and Ayumi's discussions.
So I thought I had have to have context for what happened right before it stop skipping.

This perspective is so weird why is his head so small?
Two of Naoya's heads can fit in Ayumi's head.
I'm guessing in the reason is with his height his head wouldnt appear on screen so they gave him a small head but it's still so weird.
The girls look like theirs heads are deformed and he looks like he has a shrunken head

Late to this, but I don't see why there is so much debate around this. In the end it depends on nothing else but the reader's willingness to look up words.
If you can still enjoy Dies Irae despite having to hover over words every couple lines to see what they mean then hey, more power to you. If you'd rather go through it at a faster pace and can appreciate the choice of synonyms then you're definitely not wrong either.

Just like EGS I suppose, they just tag whatever kinda fits. At least EGS has "strength".. not like that does that much for searching.

I like this artist's style but the weird little details like this in some of their art especially sprites bothers me sometimes.
>>
>>16573006
>this artist
There are at least two artists involved in that screenshot. (Maybe three? Who drew Yuumi's sprites?)
>>
>>16572673
I Fucking hate Ayumi she's a pervert who's a girl but even worse.

Im glad you NTR her shame she likes it.

This post must be bait

she called it a burden for others but to a hentai like her it's a treat. There was a screen shot floating around here before of it.

So I ended up downloading the versions of baldr sky in the torrent:
https://sukebei.nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=204767

I just finished the first game and wanted to move on to the second when I got the message about not being able to carry over data from dive 1 because for this torrent the game doesn't have to actually be installed. You guys know of a way around this or do I have to just go and re-download the games and move around my save data or something?

Good luck with that. Shizel's route felt like a huge mess.I've been replaying Marelle since last night and I fell asleep several times while the text was skipping, but I'm almost at the end.
>>
>>16573638
>Shizel's route felt like a huge mess
It's both crap and super long, if it was Kei/Sakura's size it would be way better, but no, needed to justify the price.
>>
>>16573631
>Chink version
Go away.
>>
>>16569291
>>16573638
Shizel route was a mess, sure, but there was some interesting information about Maria, so it wasn't that bad for me. Obviously Marel with all that Rasayana and Scavenger/Neunzehn stuff is much more interesting.
