Anything good come out in the past 3 months?

Been out of the scene for a while.

I appreciate that she and her brother look alike. Makes the incest hotter.

I like how this game is on one hand a typical eroge, but on the other hand still sometimes is awfully grounded in reality. So plot-device that leads to girls being horny and want sex? Sure exists. And then she realized "damn, I could be pregnant with all the cumming inside".
Art is actually the same, not exaggerating all the typical fluids that most artists like to exaggerate to the point people don't even consider it as such anymore.

>>16774980
Silverio Trinity

>>16774980

Tokihate, Shinsou Noise, Akikuru, and that Phoenix Wright esque eroge come to mind. Tsukikage no Simurakura (or whatever) also got a not-free eroge version with added content, mid-price. Was pretty well received as well.

For relatively recent recommendations you can also check EGS. They have that there as well. You should find a few more titles there than I remembered.

>>16775169
>good
>Tokihate
>Akikuru

>>16775177

For many people: Yes. I can't say much about Akikuru myself, but Tokihate is one of the better games out there for sure. Has problems, but I really like where the author is going.
I actually rarely, if ever, say this but Tokihate needs a sequel. That last part was too good to not build something on it. (provided you like your crazy psycho girls)

>>16775191
Do you also like Sakura Mori Dreamers?

>>16775252
I also wanted to ask this. I relatively liked Sakura Mori but I got the idea that they were pretty different.

Holy crap this game is excellent, thanks for the post.
Putting aside the magic spell stuff, the premise of the game is so simple yet so enjoyable. The MC wants to date the girl on the right, so with his sister's training, he works out and studies and so on and basically transitions from a sullen loner to a full-blown ikemen. So he goes to school and he's such a cool, handsome guy that almost every girl falls for him. And the game is just showing him like casually saying "I'm lucky to have become friends with girls as cute as you two" and getting reactions like pic related. It's such a fantasy, it's great.

>>16775382
And it was an all-girls school before the year the MC enters (he's a 2nd year) so all the girls are somewhat awkward / not used to men, so it's basically like MC is an Adonis descending among awkward virgins.
For example, the topic shifted to MC having a muscular body and Maina got up close and jokingly looking over him with a perverted gaze, but then realized he looked uncomfortable and stopped, apologizing nervously and saying she had gone too far (worried that she had just embarrassed herself and made based ikemen MC think less of her).

Shachi's route pretty much became a nukige after they started dating. I really liked the common route and even thought her drama was endearing but the last stretch lost me since it was just sex scenes with barely anything between them and all of the comedy was gone.

>>16775675
Yeah I definitely agree as well. Her drama & start of the route and the wing stuff were pretty enjoyable imo, specially the flashbacks, but after they resolved it felt like writer didnt want to bother with anything new and just threw some h-scenes to make it end.

Well there'll be some after stories at noraneko 2 so maybe they can redeem it.

>>16775729
The flashbacks were really cute. I expected the plot about the wings to go somewhere since it seemed to set up more drama but then the game just ended. Anyway I thought I don't feel like reading more right now but I just read the first few minutes of Yuuki's route and the game went back to being enjoyable, so I guess I'll continue.

Speaking of elf, their site is completely dead now. At least Okie is released on AW today.

>>16775252

I haven't finished it. It's like twice as long, and that obviously affects the pacing. What I've read of it, I mostly enjoyed though. It's hard to compare these two though, as a big part of why I'm a fan of Tokihate is because of it's final ~hour or so.
I found the prologues in both games pretty fun, and after that it feels both games lose quite a bit of strength, with a few bursts here and there. The question with Mori Dreamers would be, how well it ends up doing its endgame. Funny enough, I don't think anyone (or at least not many) here have gotten there.

>>16775373

Same universe, as that private detective is referenced in Tokihate, as are these... things. (Don't remember their name, but you probably know what I mean if you played Sakura Mori Dreamers) In one of the endings at least.
They do deal with some different things, but there are also similarities. Mostly atmosphere. Although if you've played Natsu no Iro no Nostalgia you'll also recognize a few music tracks (I think) and definitely some backgrounds. (some parts of the town, a zoo) Could just be them saving budget (which is what I'd bet on), but would be pretty funny if not.

>>16776037
>It's like twice as long
It's at 25h whereas the other one is at 18h on EGS. Though I guess if a game is boring it feels endless.

>>16776054
To be fair, almost no one even bothers with the game after the main route and maybe Kureha's.

>>16776054

That's a common EGS effect. Tokihate is ~1mb, while Sakura Dreamers is above 2mb.

One of the reason for this is, that the longer a game is, the more people drop it, and the more do early drops influence the average time. There are a few other factors as well, but what's important is that until ~20hours it tends to be relatively accurate, above that and it's usually pretty damn off.

What do you do when one girl is so clearly best girl that the others don't even hold a candle in a hurricane to her, but you know the route branches are still miles away and just the thought of having to go through all the inevitable moments where they'll try and show off the other girls is actually kinda unpleasant because you don't even want to be convinced otherwise?

>>16776454
With you on that one. Something about the feigned sense of distance or whatever it is tickles the cockles of my heart just so.

>>16776560
Thanks, it works perfectly now.

千恋＊万花 has been pretty good so far. Just finished mako route (so cute). Why don't more VNs give us flow chart? Makes life way easier.

>>16777774
So until about 45 minutes in when the sister used magic to make girls want to hop on the protagonist's dick?

>>16777937
Exactly. The fun wasn't long, but I liked the characters.

>>16777953
I'm pretty sure the only characters introduced by that point are the MC and the imouto.
Anyway, I'm just pretending the spell was fake and everything that's happening is because he's based ikemen.
Not like the magic "actually" matters.

>>16777984
>I'm pretty sure the only characters introduced by that point are the MC and the imouto.

You're forgetting the heterochromia girl. I played a bit after she used her magic or whatever. I think I dropped it when she talked with him in school via telepathy.

>>16777999
Heterochromia girl had no lines of dialogue (except like 2) before that, so I didn't count her.
Telepathy was pretty cringeworthy though, yeah.

>>16778015
I wish I had a hot sister I could telepathically communicate with and beam all my lewd thoughts about her at her.
I don't remember if that happened in her route or not but if it didn't, it's a waste.

>>16777816
All Applique VNs have flowcharts. It's just too much extra work for VNs which are already very simple. Why would you ever need it if there are 2 choices in the entire game etc.

I use freEshop to download 3ds games, but the titles i want are japanese and more obscure so i cant find any title keys, anyone know a japanese game title key database or a way to download more obscure japanese games on the 3ds?

>>16775894

>>16783238
It literally opened with the MC's hands in two girls' boobs. I lost all faith immediately. Of course I didn't ever expect it to be anything special, but starting immediately with that just killed it for me.

>>16781281
Android has a psp emulator which has heaps of VNs on it (check vndb)

>>16783281
Harsh, but understandable.

>>16783281
It's just a moege, not sure what you expected. I've seen worse.

>>16783329
I would be much more forgiving of something like that even 5 minutes in. Like I said, I wasn't expecting anything special. But when its the first thing that pops up on the screen I couldn't help but shake my head in disappointment. Perhaps it will actually end up being entertaining. I suppose we'll see.

>>16783281
Picked up, thanks.

>>16783329
>just a moege

That makes it worse, imo. There isn't much you can expect from them in terms of plot so the very least it should offer is not grinding your gears.

>>16783358
What he said doesn't grind my gears though.

>>16783381
No shit, deal breakers are obviously different for different people. Game starting with an (accidental) boob grab might not be enough for me do to flat out drop it but I definitely can get behind the reason why someone would do that.

Finished Kimimaho. It was a really nice and unique story, good mix of mystery, light fantasy, and romance. The central theme seems to be that you can't find true happiness in reading fiction all day and you need to go out and find real friends and a normal life, which kind of denies my entire lifestyle, but oh well, it was really nicely told.

There were some problems though, particularly with editing. It wasn't just the numerous typos, there was one voice line I think the voice producer forgot to stop the recording or something. It was hilarious of course but also ruined immersion pretty bad to hear the seiyuu's normal non-acting voice mid-scene. I guess everyone just zoomed onwards as soon as the line ended and never noticed it.

Kanami > Kisaki > Misaki > Rio > Nagisa > Chrysoberyl > Yoruko
8/10

>>16784703
finally, a tier list I can agree with.

think I remember that one specific line, too. these guys really gotta get someone to check over their work.

were you the guy reading it right before Istoria came out? they're quite similar in terms of plot structure and the mix of mystery/fantasy/romance you point out (though a bit heavier on the mystery and subplots) and it seems like it's shaping up to be almost the same length, so unless you're craving more of that style of story, you might wanna mix it up a little with something else first. all too easy to get burned out, which'd be a shame since it's hitting the drama beats real well.

>>16784749
Yup, my plan to finish this so I can be prepared to read Istoria when it comes out really didn't work out, definitely need a break with some other different VNs before I come back to it. I'm glad to hear it's the same structure and even heavier on the mystery, which was great, though, I look forward to reading it. Keep us updated on what it's like.

I've looked through the archive, and well there was tons of hype for danganronpa 2 and well v3 was released this year but there was barely any discussion on it.
Did everybody leave?
Did they go to /vg/'s danganronpa general?
2ch had a thread for each character when v3 came out.

>>16784901
Console game.

2 was talked about here quite a bit when it came out

>>16784937
Both of those are on PC.

>>16784939
yeah but when they were released they were on console and people here were talking about 2 when it was relased on psp.

Quick give a rating for what you're reading right now.

Rina's route was very great.

>>16784990
I read the first two routes months ago, they were good though not great.
I realize the later routes are supposed to be the best but I felt so burned out after what felt like the longest common route. Followed by two routes that were much longer than they had any right to be. I've always been planning to get back to it sometime, just hasn't happened yet.

>>16784990
Utawarerumono 2
9.0
Every character is great. The plot is just okay but the comedy and character interaction, along with the worldbuilding (in terms of fleshing out the fantasy culture), is great. This is definitely the first "fantasy" VN I've read and considered to be truly great. Aiyoku no Eustia was just okay and too popcorny.

Apparently there's a story but I didnt really bother.

The imouto is shit and the rest of the girls are too, one uses you as a replacement for her old love, another for their vibrator, another threatens to cheat on you while having sex, your imouto is shit and makes fun of you and isn't loyal, another is a lesbian that hates men.

It's a solid moege, whatever that statement is worth. I actually read all the routes which i don't usually do. I do remember the ecchi being top notch if that's a big deal for you. I guess I'd give it a 7.5.

>>16785082

Are you sure? You already throught it was slow, it doesn't really get faster.

>>16785171
At least this time I know I'm already like 50% done before i get back into it.
Plus the latter heroines always looked more interesting. If they're not then well, fuck.

>>16785182
Rina, Yuumi and Shizuku are interesting, Rin gets interesting in later chapters too. Just the game's overall pace doesn't really speed up.

>>16785136
I love genki/outgoing girls and osanajimis like Rina from kimi no tonari

Though mainly if they are just genki/outgoing
Akane from chuunibyou love equation
Nanoha from panical confusion
I also like osanajimi as they can be cute like
Rin from sakura no uta
Minari from fureraba
but Wakaba is shit, I was disappointed, I was expecting to like her.

>>16785153
I loved the sex art and positions but the sex voices weren't that imprressive. Maybe its just the seiiyuus?

Someone recommended it a few weeks ago on this thread. Very surprised the enormous length is actually well utilized and how the writers put legitimate effort in exploring several sides of the good old human/robot dichotomy.

>>16785189
Not him but I looked forward to Rina's chapter and well the beginning with the stage play was pretty interesting and I really loved the art style but the rest didn't quite wow me.

It was just kinda weird to see them bouncing back with, Why did Naoya give me his 'last', why don't I tell Naoya the truth that I like him, plus Naoya's confession was pretty random and out of place. Their talk under under the tree was interesting and I guess a high point but there's not much really.

I admit them meeting up as kids was cool though and well written.
Also why do kids have knives?

I was forced to reformat my pc today and along with it came my sav data for White Album 2.
The game is too long and I do not really want to play it again. But H-scenes are just so romantic that I replay them every once in a while so the loss of the sav kinda hurts me

By any chance, does anyone here have the link for the 100% complete sav of various games including White Album 2?
Thanks in advance

>>16785194
Honestly are the sex voices ever impressive?
Not to mention you hear the same lines in just about every scene, in every game.
Good positions and art are all I hope for when it comes to ecchi.

Go to http://sagaoz.net/savedata/ and search for White Album 2. They have a pretty comprehensive list of user uploaded 100% eroge save files.

That reminds me
if you liked fureraba play this
https://vndb.org/v5734/
I love this so much, I can't finish it due to a bug but its so fun cheerful and a great summer game.

I had it on my pc some time ago I played the first couple of minutes and wasn't impressed and turned it away as some kusoge then for some reason tried it out and it got better and better and i really loved it.

My problem is I don't like maids and that's the theme, they run a maid cafe but the wacky hijinks make up for it. Also the slow start up a to get good.
I like it better than fureraba in most regards.

Kaho is best girl, but I like the derdere kouhai and I like kuudere girls like Satsuki in general.

>>16785286
It'll never get smaller, trust me.

>>16785260
That was quick.
Thanks a lot, man

>>16785253

Yes they can be. It has to do with the ero-writing as well, and what the actors are asked to do, but yes, they can be. It's kinda rare though.

It's also obviously depending on which actors you like, though there are definitely more than enough cases where a character sounds great and then h comes along and it sounds super weird. Usually goes hand in hand with the character being written out of character during the scene though I feel.

>>16785253
I pretty much thought that but sometimes you can tell if the seiiyuus are into it. For me I loved the sex positions and the art really complimented it and I couldn't think of better postions for them, but it felt like the seiyuus weren't into it. It kinda turned me off.

>>16785298
No worries, I use it sometimes to get 100% CG in nukige I can't really be assed reading thoroughly.

>>16785253
The one character I love mostly for her voice and how she sounds in sex scenes is Sakura in Baldr Sky Zero (especially her first scene in BSZ Extreme is great). She always talks really rude without trying to be dominant or anything and I find that very erotic. Also there's a lot of moaning instead of constantly describing what's happening which also helps the scenes.

>>16785303
>>16785308
I've read alot of ero but I'm honestly struggling to recall a good example of a seiyuu killing it in a sex scene.
Got any good suggestions?

>>16785323
I feel like Hikari from hanasaki workspring like i mentioned earlier.
I love her art and her main game sex scenes and positions, but her voice in the first sex scene is kinda off.
I don't know how to put it, but it's not hot or erotic its just noises of sex.
It's been a while I'm not sure about the others but it felt that way when i did the first sex scene.

>>16785400
Look up what "killing it" means ESL kun.

>>16785403
oh right didn't read too well. I guess the vampire from bishoujou mangekyuu, during the bath when she gives in and wants the dick.
She full on breaks down and he gives it to her to her so bad. Its so hot.

>>16785323
>>16785421

While I didn't really like her performance too much in that game, Aoba Ringo is in my opinion definitely capable to perform well. Provided the role isn't too loli. I generally like her characters as well though, with a few exceptions.

I don't think there is a general answer to this though. Everyone finds different things hot. I find it a bit weird to see you not having an idea at all how voices can really heavily improve on a scene. I know it's not THAT common to be "outstanding", but still.

>>16785290
>Changable clothes
Actually hoping for new games to have this feature. Changing the heroine's clothes/hair during their route feels refreshing.

I got back into reading, but I forgot how to join threads in ITHVNR, what was the command again? something like L1:L3? for thread 0001 and 0003?

After Zypressen it was a nonstop roller coaster for me. I think more importantly is how the game attaches to your head afterwards so you dont remember how slow it was.

>>16784990
Also reading SnU.

9.0 for me, the start was very boring and slow I kept trying to speed up to "the good parts" until I finally got it and understood what Scaji was doing. I reread everything from the start, started reading more slowly and realized how retarded I was being and how good the novel was. I honestly kind of hated it for a while at first because people were saying it was good so I wanted to get to the good parts, and I just wasn't getting it. Then I got it. I fell in love with Rin and Ai on my second play. Still have not finished the novel, I'm just taking it easy and reading Natsume Soseki and Kenji Miyazawa in my spare time when I'm away from the pc.

Also Doushite, Sonna ni Kuroi Kami ga Suki na no?

8.0 It's a Romcom that manages to be funny and entertaining, with VERY little fluff or filler text, what I love about the game is the fucking pacing is soo good. The girls are all cute, the sex scenes were steamy, I love the characters, traditional japanese clothes and long dark hair so it was perfect for me. So far only finished 2 routes and have yet to finish the game.

Also dabbling in on a few other games but non have really caught me, like daitoshokan, baldur hearts and koikake.

>>16788108
>I think more importantly is how the game attaches to your head afterwards so you dont remember how slow it was.

This is important with Subahibi too. I felt It's My Own Invention was kinda slow in some parts, but after Insects and with Jabberwocky things got too real to not be interesting, so I was hooked and even went back to reread some parts of Invention.

>>16788108
I'm so hyped for Rin route in Sakura no Toki. Surely Sca-ji has to deliver one.

Anyone here played some of Shigeta's less popular games? Meaning the ones other than Pricchi, KuruKuru and MagiCha.

Also, I don't know if I'm being a slowpoke but he seems to be working on a new game Paradise Ocean and the game website at least doesn't list any other writers.

I finally wanted to read tokyo necro and fairytale requiem. What's the general consensus on them, are they worth a read?

>>16789030
Former is very good. Latter is alright.

I know there are games that use a custom name.
However do they do voice mixing to say the name?
Or do they just get the first kana?

Most use awkward silences or "senpai" or whatever in that regard.

I think the cation games may actually voice some names? I don't know. Only played one, and only one route of it, and somehow got stuck with senpai/onii-san or some shit, so hell if I know.

File: Lovely Call.jpg (356KB, 925x695px) Image search: [Google]

>>16789071
You mean custom protagonist names? Most of the time it's unvoiced, so characters saying the custom name have an unnatural pause mid-sentence. That, or they don't say the name at all and get around by saying "you", "senpai", the protagonist's title like "master" etc. There's also some games that have a custom name input at the beginning in which case it's unvoiced, but also a default name that gets properly voiced if you don't change it like Fureraba or Hoshi Ori Yume Mirai.

x Cation series and Love Plus are some exceptions with a selection of voiced custom names, though obviously a limited amount of them. Basically you write the name yourself and then choose the appropriate or nearest similar voiced name from a list. Cation games also only voice the protagonist's first name, surnames get the unvoiced pause or one the mentioned workarounds.

Sorry to hear that Vyacheslav.

Also I can't help but think it's gotta be more awkward than anything else to have your name called like that. Then again, self-insert. I don't really mind Senpai myself though. If you ever like to go back to h-scenes, something neutral like Senpai is pretty nice.

>>16789106
Cause I remember that in fureraba they said the first kana for the protagonist's name, after replaying I remembered that the protagonist could be named.

I didn't go back and check but it was pretty interesting if people changed what they call you from your name.

I wanted to see if anybody noticed.

I don't know the hate for this VN, it's nothing stellar, but so far they handled the drama just fine and not overstaying its welcome. Things got rushed out a bit near the end, but it's not that bad.

But I will rate it 3 with rUGP crashes. Holy shit, how the hell can one fuck up a visual novel engine?

>>16789616

I like that one. I only installed a game with that and checked if it's starting. And while that works, if I ever restart it it basically thinks it crashed and wants to do some safety-start with everything disabled or some bullshit. Quality engine.

>>16789071
Tokimemo 2 had a whole system to even pick the intonation of a name's syllables, it was fucking science. Then you had to eat a few blocks of your memory card to save that and pull it in the game - a 5 CD dating sim. They really didn't hold back one bit.

あした出逢った少女 is so good. I recommend it if you're into games where you make theories with lots of foreshadowing and a slowly unraveling mystery. It's also just a nice atmospheric suspense and very short (like 12 hours).

Seems everybody is posting Sca-ji the last couple days. Just wanted to ask, is there any difference between the 2010 Subahibi release and the 2016 download edition in content? Doesn't seem like it based on the VNDB page and I haven't heard anyone mention anything about different versions but I thought I'd ask.

So, finished with this. Man was the main-story a mess. The main-heroine lacks a big chunk of the main-plot which for some reason another girl got, that however doesn't even feel like she should've been a heroine in the first place. Then the fandisc ignores that and kinda acts as if it was one thing after all.. but still offers separate stories again, even though they would've again benefited to not be randomly split? Like what the fuck. Also inconsistent with the original. The writer should've probably read the original before writing the fd..

I know eroge need the ero, but there've been enough examples how to do this without traditional routes. It especially hurts here, as one of the "main-goals" is a thing in most of the routes and gets recycled again and again and again. The main-writer also used a bit too much overdramatization for my liking. There's lot of information purposely withhold from the reader to make things more dramatic than they end up being. If drama, then real one, or keep it realistic please. It just sucks to go from "this teacher let their 'club-garage' get destroyed with their glider and everything in it" to "the glider wasn't actually in it. Oh and the teacher only ever was legitimately worried about their well being and is actually not against their club or anything"...


Just... please. And yet this writer (Konno Asta) seems to be quite liked, also for these routes? Weird. Sure there's way worse out there, but the drama is mostly.. ugh, and the story structure just flat out terrible.
Ageha was definitely even worse though, although it gave birth to an awesome Hotaru. But given she auto-loses, that's actually not good. It's Ageha's route after all. Hotaru gets her route in the fandisc, but unfortunately it doesn't branch of Ageha's original route. The result is still okay, but the short little (mostly ero) sequel to Ageha's route still had the best Hotaru scene of the fandisc in it. Go figure.

And then the twins. This was actually the most grounded stuff and what I liked the most. Still, these didn't need to have regular routes either, like Amane. In fact most of what makes this route great is the relationship between the twins and how they grow and what great characters they are. Not exactly what people look for in "heroines" all the time. Especially Yoru grew a ton on me, featuring also a really great final part. I wonder who wrote this. Knowing my luck it was the guy who only worked on this game.


Still worth playing, though the main-story really takes a nose-dive past the split. Main-girl has another fandisc with a 3d model for Kotori and all which was technically interesting to see, but short (~2h) and well.. not looking too good. Cool idea though.

>>16790768
Pretty much only popular things we can talk about and with that only popular things here.
Like fureraba, Love caution, Leyline.
I'd like to talk about Gyakutan Saiban and other things but wouldn't get much responses.
As they pretty much have to be popular here and not really translated.
Its kinda sad really.
At least I can talk about some jap only stuff on/vg/ like persona 5, Danganronpa v3 and have people who know jap to talk about it with.

On that note the people on/vg/ translate shit fast. I normally check over my work. By the time it takes me translate something like a manga strip or a yugioh card. It was already translated and posted in like a few seconds.
Its ridiculous, I think there are actual translators there.

>>16791130
Or you can talk about stuff that hasn't already been released and discussed for several years. Anytime I post about a novel that has be released in the last month or two I always get a response. Unless a vn was truly great no one cares about your years late opinion.

Sakura no Uta is a special case because the game was so slow people are only now done with the novel!

Also you can go back to /vn/, no one will miss you.

>>16791130
I love Gyakuten Saiban but have only played it in English on the DS and haven't read the new ones. I'll get on it someday.

Only being able to talk about 'popular' stuff is just how this sort of thing works due to the western eroge community not being too large. The only way you'd get people talking about older releases all at once is if there were some sort of reading club, and I don't think too many people would be interested in that.

>>16791161
>Unless a vn was truly great no one cares about your years late opinion
That's as wrong as wrong can get. I don't care about someone posting about the newest moege clone and rather have people talk about underrated old games like >>16790727

It's just a shame no one else cares. I would rather talk about はるるみなもに it's been great so far. I need to read more before talking about it though I just got past the demo's content. Also looking forward to that novel about the android that looks like the mc's dead little sister. I forgot the name of it.

You can talk about anything. But what delusion lead you to believe anyone has to reply?

But then the last two points of your posts reveal it's a shitty bait.

>>16791161
Where did you get /vn/ from?
I only go on persona general, Danganronpa general and yugioh general on /vg/. Mainly cause I'm interested in those games.
Those were the ones I listed, I don't go on /vn/.
Maybe you misread?

Also to my knowledge quite a few people finsihed SnU in 2 weeks of the release and that's when most of the discussion happened here, it died down after a month.
I started but lost interest and go back to now and again.

>>16791170
Same I got into it back in high school, and was really into it so much.
Most people on /v/ like 逆転検事2 the best, I personally hate the end because of the clown, the game just went generic good guy was evil let's make him as evil as possible. He hates everybody and animals and has a generic bad guy breakdown. It was the lowest point of the series.

I play both english and japanese versions for many games.
In my opinion japanese carrys a stronger tone and makes things much more darker and serious, which works really well for stuff like Drakoi (I love this game so much for its writing it's so well done and the destruction and fights felt terrifying), and I think english does light-hearted hunour and themes better.
Like persona 3 is better in japanese to me and persona 4 is better in english. Also in persona 5 Igor's japanese voice is pure sex. https://streamable.com/ozmkk

Also there was an idea for a reading club but some people were really against it. Like actually holding animosity against it. I don't know why it just seemed that way.

>>16791178
You could've helped out stabilish the old vn reading we had... Unless you already helped out or instigated it, in which case thanks. I really want us to read different things together so we can talk about them.

>>16791265
I mean sure you can talk about it but won't get as much replies as something popular here. Like I wanted to talk a lot about Danganronpa v3 when it came out but people here wouldn't really budge, I ended up goong to 2ch, /drg/ and /v/.
On that note I was surprised they had a thread for each character.

Will Minori's new novel finally live up to Ef? Lie to me and just say yes.

>>16791450
If it was only on the level of yorino again that'd be fine too, but it looks even below tsuminohi.

I have a question, anime refers to the Japanese animation but also can refer to the art style, like VNs and games can be considered anime VNs or anime games even if they don't have animation.

Is there a specific term for the art style or a way to seperate it from shows or no?

>>16791732
I think it's most commonly referred to as weebshit. Anyways off topic, take that to /a/.

>>16791752
How is it off topic? I'm talking about the artstyle of most VNs if not all discussed here.
Do you read VNs without an anime artstyle?

Speaking of artstyle what year was your favourite?
I liked the late 2000's to early 2010's and then it went bad for a while but I like the more recent ones now.

Today's art. I do like the aesthetics of dithered 80s art, but I think people look fondly on old art because they seldom remember the shitty looking games. When you look at stuff like resolution and color palette, special effects today's artists are on another level. I think the problem is more that for every gorgeous game you get 3-4 budget games. I love Sakura no Uta's art, Haruru's art, it's all great. August also has great art, too bad the writing in their last novel sucked. Mahou Tsukai no Yoru/12 tsuki no eve were gorgeous too bad they kinda sucked.


I do agree that it's too easy for hacks that have never picked up a book on color theory or anatomy to become artists for otaku culture. There are some vns out there where the color palette burns my eyes.

It's not even really that I got bored. I'm just really "bad" with that genre and yet love it. Same happened with Corpse Party. Though that also had pretty shitty gameplay I suppose. Dodging random shit was just so clunky. And bugged. One time I left a room, I had an enemy in my face and got an instant game-over there.

>>16796054
I... don't think you love it then. If you find something engaging the natural response is to, well, engage in it more and not avoid it.

>>16791846
Maybe mid 2000's. I like clean designs that aren't overly detailed.

Does anyone know a game where a heroine sends lewds to the protagonist's phone or mail?

>>16796078

Horror succeeds if it creates an atmosphere where you "don't want to be there". Doubly so in games like Corpse Party where the whole idea is "to get out".

>>16796288
"don't want to be there" and "don't want to play this game" is very different.
If someone walked out of a horror movie 5 minutes in because they got scared I have a hard time believing their reaction would be "10/10 love it". People who like horror actively seek it out to get the "thrill". If you do the opposite, avoiding it, you either don't like that feeling all that much OR your genuine fear heavily outweighs the exciting thrill part. In both cases the statement of "I love horror" couldn't be made.

>>16796420
Your logic error is
>your genuine fear heavily outweighs the exciting thrill part.
>In both cases the statement of "I love horror" couldn't be made.
Why could someone not say they love horror just because genuine fear outweighs exciting thrill? People can like feeling genuine fear.

I was gonna ask if there are any april fool jokes but it seems like there are already.

>>16795415
>>16795415
so its girls you couldn't romance in SnU?
Wow, so are you still Naoya?

>>16796559
Because "love" by definition means you like it and want more of it. If you avoid it, then you clearly don't want it.
>People can like feeling genuine fear
Eh, no. The part people like is the thrill that comes WITH the fear, as said. That's why people go bungee jumping, on rollercoasters etc. Fear itself is purely a negative emotion.

>>16795431
>That's all the JKs and JCs,
What?

>>16796420

That may be true, if we'd not be in the world we are.
The movie analogy isn't very good, because you go see a movie with the intention to do so for the next x minutes. It being scary is what you paid for, so you'd stay.
A VN is a bit different. These are LONG. And you don't always feel like going into a horror atmosphere every day for days. Gloomy, quiet and so on. On top of that there are many other things you could do. And then you just leave it be.

I fully intend to go back to it. Stuff doesn't run away. Breaks can be a good thing. Maybe we are just different, but that's how I do it. I also mostly leave sequels and fandiscs for a while later. I have read Leyline 1 about a year ago, Leyline 2 maybe half a year ago, and I'm recently starting to feel like reading Leyline again, which would then obviously be Leyline 3. I suppose you could say, 'hey if you'd really love the living shit out of Leyline, that wouldn't happen'.., true. Maybe. But they are pretty good. And Mori Dreamers isn't the absolutely perfect game either, obviously. Finding that stuff is super rare. Although if something is REALLY good I still have the habit of just taking a break, because I want to savor it. So I guess it doesn't really matter how good something is in the end.

I know other people really like to get into something, the longer the better. I'm different there. I blame anime which come in seasons and tend to never end their plot anyway, and all those rpgs I played with half-assed endings/seconds parts. I'm also really really resistant against cliff-hangers and such. Those don't work on me. I'd probably be crazy at this point if they'd still do, after all the incomplete stories I saw/played. Makes it all the more special that I really want a sequel for Tokihate. That too is the reason why I will be reading Mori Dreamers till the end at some point. All routes as well.

>>16796590
Did you read SnU? If you had, it should make sense to you.

Hi guys, I'm learning Japanese, and I won't have internet for the next few months. I'm planning to download a bunch of VNs to (slowly) read through, but I'm having a hard time finding untranslated visual novels. Could any of you guys tell me the best place to get untranslated VNs? (I can't afford internet, so I'cant afford to buy them) I can only seem to find translated ones on nyaa and AnimeBytes.

I get that the thread is for discussing visual novels and not how to download them but please help out, I'm not adept enough at japanese to google in japanese yet ;_;

>>16796596
not that guy but i'm gonna have to disagree with that. you can love a thing and not want more of it. requiem for a dream was a fantastic movie and i loved it but i would rather not watch it again. you can love the negative emotions something instills in you simply because it makes you feel strong emotions you might not otherwise. or that would otherwise be associated with real life unpleasantries.

it's not just the thrill. purely unfun emotions can be interesting to experience in a controlled environment like fiction. gore, rape, ntr, death, betrayal, etc., people can find these interesting in a fictional context (besides the folks who get off to that stuff) because it lets you experience something you wouldn't be able to otherwise.

>>16796657

>>16796618
I can see where you're coming from. But I maintain the point that your use of the word "love" was an exaggeration.

>>16796663
>gore, rape, ntr, death, betrayal
See none of those are "purely unfun emotions". They're can be very exciting and fun for many people for different reasons. Rape: Feeling of dominance, unleashing sexual urges -> positive. One might also feel guilt, but if the positive ones outweigh the guilt it feels good. Of course, one can also remove the negative by simply playing 2D porn games. Even if you say you "don't get off to it" you probably feel at least a tiny bit of these things if you enjoyed stuff with it, just not to the extent it would cause you to blow a load. Fear, disconnected from everything else (in this example, the thrill and adrenaline that comes with horror) in isolation, is purely negative. It's a primitive, high stress reaction telling you to get the fuck out of whatever situation you're in and into safety.

>>16796596
One can like fear without being able to handle it well; one can want more fear while being overwhelmed by it when it comes.
You do not speak for all horror fans, and you cannot say everyone only likes it for the thrill.
And finally, just like masochists exists, an emotion being negative does not preclude people from liking it.

TRINOLINE and it's crack are out! Time to find out if Minori is back!

awful month but worth a read just for how much zen hates grisaia. is that a spinoff series or what? i haven't been following it at all.

>>16798030
He normally does, besides it's better to have somebody talk than have something like this.

Sure you can read it but I prefer micchi and Zen's commentary.

>>16797855
Hyped for 9koro. Banya title looks interesting too with the female protags.

Also Zen's top 3 this month is a good example of why you should never take his opinions seriously...

Completely empty month. That's alright. Around then, maybe Istoria got a patch. And maybe that makes me actually play some february games. Some were rather well received. Especially that one with the Phoenix Wright esque gameplay and separated main-story from routes sounds quite interested. At least some vertical text though. I suck at that. Suppose it's a good way to get better at it...

>>16797855
Definitely going to check out Palettes new game and perhaps LxC despite not being too impressed from the demo.

EOPs, it seems.

>>16798862
1 - It's sad that his game is literally the best-selling DLsite game *of all time* and he's still complaining about pirates
2 - It's doubly sad that people are telling him they enjoy his work but his first thought is to be upset because they didn't pay him before enjoying it.

>>16799293
That's like saying 'you have money, fuck you, you don't need more'. Are you against Capitilism?
It doesn't make it okay, I mean it is translated, and it's not like it's not availiable digitally.

However, main problem here isn't the priacy as all games have issues with it.
Rather it's the pirates asking him to fix stuff or talking to him about. Naturally I don't think he's angry at people who bought the game and ask him stuff, but rather people who pirated it and asks him to fix it.

It's like I copied your Assignment paper without your permission and asked you to fix up some stuff. You'd probably go how dare you, it's more like that.

>>16799572
so now a complaint is invalid if it comes from a pirate? doesn't the game still need fixing if it's a real issue? I don't see the problem.

>>16798862
His reaction to it is pretty pathetic.

>>16799572
I'm not saying "fuck you" or anything about that.
I'm just saying, at the point where you've made the most money out of anyone from a single game on DLsite, I think piracy should stop being such a big concern. I can understand when games sell very poorly, devs can see pirates as the source and blame them and get upset. That's wrong but I can understand it. But in this case his game sold GREAT. He's #1. And yet despite that he's still getting up in arms about money. It's not that I think he should be fucked for wanting more money. I'm just sad that he has a ton of money but money still dominates his mind to the point he gets upset about people pirating it, even when they praise his work. Really missing the forest for the trees.

It's just like, to me, a grim reminder. This guy made a work of art people felt touched by and loved. But in the end, he doesn't care people were touched by it and lover it. He cares about their money. To me, that's sad.

As for your issues post:
>Some user send me message that say
>“Hey, your work was translated by my country people, and I downloaded that. it was awesome! good job!”
>I really really hate to see that kind of things.

He literally says he hates to see people saying "awesome, good job!" if they read the TL'd versions because he thinks they're pirates. Not just for issues.

>>16799621
Your argument is basically
>because it's sold a ton pirating it is justified
I'd get mad too if I was him, you don't just go and tell the creator you really enjoyed his work while not paying a single yen.

>>16799643
I did not say that.
I said it's sad that he cares more about people pirating than about people enjoying the game. I do not think selling well makes piracy justified. I think selling well - literally the best-selling game on DLsite - "should" shift ones values away from money, at least to the point where one can appreciate people enjoying their work without caring more about whether they paid or not.
That is to say: Piracy, not justified. Caring so much about piracy instead of people enjoying your game, sad.
To emphasis a third time. In my ideals, I would like for artistic creators to put the experience of their consumers above all else. That is to say, I would like for creators to find praise meaningful, to find people enjoying their works to be the paramount joy for them. I do not like to see artistic creators put money above all else.
I do not like seeing artistic creators make bank on the best-selling dlsite game of all time, and then get upset at fans who tell him they love their game for not giving them more money. Keep in mind: He literally said he REALLY, REALLY HATES to see people say "awesome! good work!" if he thinks they didn't pay him. His words.

>you don't just go and tell the creator you really enjoyed his work while not paying a single yen.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Qkyt1wXNlI
There's no problem with reading used, shared books.

>>16799591
I guess it's not invalid but rather kinda sad and I would feel for him.
Like the assignment paper I mentioned, sure the person who wrote would want to fix it but it would leave a bad taste in their mouth, knowing that it would only be copied again with their revised edition.

>>16799621
Still that's what Capitilism is, imagine if Rance or Muv Luv or some other top tier work sold as well as kusoge. Eventually the dev would say 'hey I don't need to put as much effort if I get the same return' . So they might not be bothered in the future. Eventually the market goes stale as a whole. That's if their wasn't any capitalism.

Sure you can argue he made a lot of money but that's like saying it's okay to steal from the rich they have money left over.

Also yeah I guess I didn't read that too well. I assume he hates them because he can't tell if they were pirating the game and hates that. What person would hate somebody who bought their work and thanked them? I mean he doesn't seem like somebody extremely Xenophobic or hates when people don't read the original japanese text or something. More than lokely he hates the faxt pirates were thanking him

>>16799643
Why not? Positive reinforcement is always nice. Also I doubt the people messaging him go "Haha I pirated your game, good job with it" hell most wouldn't even mention it. He probably interfered that by himself seeing their twitter profile in English or whatever.
In fact that post doesn't sound worried about piracy but rather like racism since he's OK with Japanese people pirating.
>I know many Japanese also playing pirate ver, but they don’t send me messages like “I played pirate ver”.
>I know some people who are not Japanese pay for the game and respect me, but I think majority are not.

>>16799693
>Still that's what Capitilism is
Capitalism is the environment these artistic work in, but that doesn't mean I have to be happy about capitalism flowing through artists to the extent they care more about people paying them than enjoying their work.

>>16799689
>>16799701
I wanna say I agree sure the dev would love for people to enjoy their work. However I do think they are in the right to be mad.
Suppose it was the highest selling media in japan and people still pirated it. At that point if he got angry, I would say he made a ton of money and the potential amount lossed isn't that much.
Still I do think he is in the right to be angry, though I wouldn't say much if at all even.

In the end its the percentage really.
Losing 5 dollars from 10 is quite big, while losing 1000 from 1000000 isn't as big. How angry he gets could say much about his character, if he's greedy, overeacting or in his limits.

>>16799751
Also from what I heard, I'd like to add people tweeted him saying they pirated his game and trabslated it, then asked him to fix stuff.
He made his twitter private after that.
I mean I'd be ticked too if that happened.
He made his twitter private afterwards.

I guess it might not be the money but could also just be him getting angry at the pirates for mocking him like that.

Trinoline is kinda shitty so far, really disappointed, they are really trying to build up the imouto's death and Sara's return but because you don't know either of those characters it falls really flat.

>>16799693
>Eventually the dev would say 'hey I don't need to put as much effort if I get the same return' . So they might not be bothered in the future. Eventually the market goes stale as a whole. That's if their wasn't any capitalism.

This is really the sad part, you could pour your heart into a work that is actually good and be outsold by neko para. It makes me wonder why people still try. That's why I buy VN that I really enjoy and never pay for nukige shit. It's also time devs learned to port their games to consoles even if they have to remove ero scenes. I would buy Sakura no Uta without the ero scenes on vita or ps4.

When is Purple Software usually announcing their new games? Surprised it hasn't happened this year yet. Amatsutsumi had its trial 6 days from now on last year

>>16799751
I just think as an artist anyone would hate it. Any creator would hate to see his work pirated. And if you are going to pirate don't have the gall to show it off.

>>16799896
Hopefully never.

>>16799897
>I just think as an artist anyone would hate it.
>Any creator would hate to see his work pirated.
Watch the video >>16799689

Also, it's fine to not like piracy, but when your dislike for piracy is so large you actually start hating hearing people praise your art if they didn't buy it... I think that's putting the cart before the horse, and isn't a good thing.

>>16798862
I think the appropriate response here would have been something like this "I'm happy to see you are enjoying my game(s) but buy the game instead of pirating it". I mean I don't see an issue with somebody buying the game and then applying a translation patch considering he still gets his money right?

I just went to his twitter. His pinned tweet is
>People who are not Japanese, please read it.
Aka, other anon is right, this is pretty much thinly veiled racism.

>>16800041
I think its kinda racist but at the same time he just doesn't want to deal with it.
he says he feels sorry for his fans and well he doesn't know who bought it or not.

I'd say both sides are kinda in the wrong.

Still if this goes bad maybe other people will start putting gaijin block on things on dlsite. Seeing as this is the most popular and caused thos much issues

>>16800092
>Still if this goes bad maybe other people will start putting gaijin block on things on dlsite.

I really want them to put more drm on vns. not even joking. Pirates are cancer as it is, eop pirates are on another level.

>>16800168
Post your eroge shelf.

>>16800168
I've seen people saying its okay to do so and its justifyable as the games were not coming to the west.
Also that the devs should feel honoured that somebody not in their target audience is playing it.
It also doesn't count as lost sales because they weren't planning on buying it.
Also some other reasons.
It's really weird.

>>16798499
>>16798556
I do, I think I got it from the homebrew general on /vg/. Check the Vita section of their OP.

>>16800311

The same people won't buy it even if it comes to the west. The sad fact is the vn community in the west are all parasites for the most part.

I used to believe this but now I go on 2ch and people talk about pirating all the time so yeah. I guess the main difference would be that we are openly fine about it but on 2ch there's always at least one annoying guy who flames pirates.
>>16800340
Bold move repeating that line after last time

Should I play chaos;child if I never read chaos;head? I don't even care about the story but they chuu chuu spin off looks good.

>>16800404
>I don't even care about the story but they chuu chuu spin off looks good.
No. Go play the latest low quality title by Clochette instead.

>>16798499
Is chaos head any good I've seen it talked about a lot, I haven't played anything else in the series.
What is it science fiction?
Chuuni or plotge?

>>16800440
No, people only talk about bad games.
None of those, it's a racing simulator.

>>16800440
it starts out real good as a nice paranoid delusional NEET simulator but loses steam in the last third when it genre shifts to something less atmospheric and more...direct. probably worth a read though, it's an excellent mood-setter.

assuming "terrified and hallucinating otaku loser" is a mood you're interested in experiencing.

>>16800440
Definitely more plotge. Chaos;Head is decent. Focus is on horror and mystery (the main deal is a string of gruesome murders) with quite a bit of denpa aspects as well, but takes a rather different approach towards the end like the other anon said, which you may or may not like very much.

Chaos;Child is a sequel with a new cast of characters and takes a similar approach from the beginning, and I think it's also one of its bigger issues because rather than just directly continuing from where ;Head left off it tries to set a similar horror mystery tone, but the players already know the bigger underlying plot stuff of ;Head so it comes off as a bit boring since you can easily surmise what's roughly going on despite the main characters themselves being completely puzzled at the mysterious murders. My recommendation would be to just play Chaos;Head and if you happen to have been left wanting more of the same then play Chaos;Child.

Steins;Gate on the other hand is a completely different brand of sci-fi with absolutely zero relation to C;H and C;C. Without spoiling anything, the basic premise is a group of university students creating a time machine on accident and then experimenting with it in different ways, and the plot goes from there. Whereas C;H and C;C are just sort of okay with their share of rather big issues, S;G is one of my favorite VNs in general and could easily recommend it to everyone.

>>16801038
Id buy it.

>>16801080
Fuck off.

>>16799897
I used to be a creator, many (and most, I'd say) people pirated my work (and I also "pirated" it once before I wanted to listen to the results since master pressed copies didn't arrive to my place until like 3 months later) and I didn't give much of a shit. I knew many people who listened to it had pirated it but I was glad that they enjoyed it. In fact it wouldn't have had the reach it had because my most popular work was sold as an event-only limited edition at Comiket, there's no way so many people would've have it.

Several Japanese artists don't give much of a shit either, although japs are often more sensitive about this kind of stuff in average.

>>16801038
>>16801074
its not april 1st in japan anymore right?
So its real?

>>16801168
Personally I don't really care either. I support what I like and when companies die at least I have my pretty boxes and ost. Some company will always come in to fill the gaps others have left. But don't pick on a guy because he doesn't want to talk to filthy gaijin pirates.

>>16801176
Don't hope anon, hope if the seed of despair.

>>16801038
Damn she gets to 100k+ views so fast these days

>>16801184
Her videos are always good and funny. The character is nice too but the humor is spot on.

>>16801192
pretty much this, the humour is there but sometimes strays a bit too far from 二次元 sometimes, which kinda bugs me

>>16801177
Yeah I don't think anyone is really picking on him, I mean not agreeing with his reaction is not picking on him. Conversely, no one ever came to me saying explicitly that they had pirated my work, that would've been uncomfortable. But not infuriating, it's not like I didn't know. But I can see EOPs being very KY about it to the point of getting under his skin. But he's basically implying in his text that he doesn't want foreigners talking to him at all, even though he knows there are legit buyers, which seems like going a bit too far to me.

>>16801200
>he doesn't want foreigners talking to him at all,
98% chance it's a pirate to be fair.

>>16801038
This is hilarious

Haven't seen one yet, but apparently it has early sex scenes so here is to hoping I see some action soon. Anyone have suggestion on who to get first?

I guess Shirone>Yuuri>Sara, the common route flows well for Shirone to start with and Sara is locked.

>>16801440
damn, really didn't want to do all 3, the vn isn't THAT great and I have a back log. Hopefully the routes are not too long.

>>16801451
I'm mostly in it for Sara, I honestly believe she's really fucked up in the head and that her route will be a blast in that regard.
That or she is a female cuckold.

>>16801510
100% agree on both ends.

>>16801510
Really fucked up in the head heroines are usually the best ones.

>>16801657
In true Minori fashion, the crazier, the better.

Why did Sara make a robot with a working vagina? Never mind that's a dumb question.

>>16801673
With a working vagina that also has to comply with every single request a human makes to her.

Shirone can't eat, but can she give oral? Deep questions that require answers. Must keep reading.

>>16801704
She turns the semen into breastmilk.
Truly a miracle of engineering, thanks Sara.

>>16801716
>Truly a miracle of engineering, thanks Sara.
Nobel prize when?

>>16801673
>>16801704

It's realistic. Robots will first be able to serve sexual purposes before useless things like "being able to eat" become a thing. Who'd need that? Okay, those who like their scat. But I mean, that's still coming later. And I'm not sure if scat-fetish can be satisfied with robo-shit. That'd need some serious scientific research.

>>16801734
Same with peeing, really, but I'd guess it would take priority because lolibots aren't lolibots without peeing.

>>16801734
What if the robots were provided with donor shits? Like instead of shitting in a toilet you shit in a receptacle that collects clear poop with good microbes that the robot can then place inside of containers within it's self for later use. Could also help lower waste water and provide a clean source of probiotics. Three birds with one stone

Trinoline's lewds scenes are soo fucking abrupt man. Geeze, no fucking warning and now they are coming back to back, feels forced as fuck, but the tiddies are soo good I don't mind.

It seems androids that can't eat CAN give oral!

Sara gave her android a hymen... Is that the warranty void if broken seal?

Is it just me or does Hatsusaku repeat the same jokes over and over again? I thought the SOL scenes were pretty fun at first, but it really wears on you after a while.

>>16801891

The artist didn't get the memo, she's supposed to be not human.

.. or does the story actually talk about her having a hymen and bleeding and shit. If so, why isn't it just a nukige in the first place?

>>16801921
>why isn't it just a nukige in the first place?
Because it mostly focuses on the characters while having good porn sprinkled.

>>16801915
It does, the comedy runs dry before the common route even ends.

>>16801921
>, why isn't it just a nukige in the first place?

Because the story is good, the characters have motivations and emotions, and it has great themes revolving around moral dilemmas?

The porn is an afterthought to me.

>>16801926
>>16801932

When they seriously write about hymen of robo-girls, anything not porn-related loses its value. That's just flatout nonsense catering to some sexual fetish and break storytelling. It's not even just the usual purity thing here, as logically speaking, nobody can argue against a robo-girl not bleeding during sex. It's a fucking robot. What's next, bleeding onaholes being normal too?

I suppose we are all a bit used to storytelling suffering for ero, but...

>>16802054
Seems pretty narrow minded to me, if you are making an artificial vaginas, self repairing hymens are just the next step.
