So is this just a worse Kamidori? From what I have heard it's nearly a carbon copy. Maybe they were afraid of doing new things after their last few kusoge and went back to what worked for them.

Anyone has Aka by NekoNekoSoft and is willing to upload it?

Same gameplay with some improvements, but I honestly like it more, better cast in general even if I'm not too far in.
The gameplay worked anyway, just needed some balance fixes and only Fia feels broken, which makes sense.

>>17096429
Can't say too much since I just started it but a much better cast so far.
Also might not be worth mentioning really, but I liked how the MC's greed and emotion won over when he was given the chance to become an apostle. Clearly he knew the risks and even admitted them, he was like fuck it whatever its everything or nothing not like my life might change for the better anyway and this might be my chance of the lifetime. Cliche-ish but serviceable, I liked the execution.

Help! A wild beast!

>>17096429
Character interactions and voice acting are not Madou tier but it is still better than Kamidori.

Gameplaywise there are some improvements I guess, oh and now you also have bosses, but can't comment much on gameplay untill I'm finished and unlock all the features.

>>17097321

Given that you are playing it right now I have three questions:

-Is the dungeon system the same as in Kamidori? I rather liked the idea of having a completion% I see and complete the dungeons with that help, including secret rooms and areas I can only reach with certain skills. (i.e. if I've explored all rooms, but it's not 100% I know there's gotta be secrets)

-How does the stat-system work? I know in Kamidori it was pretty much Fire Emblem style. Is it the same? And if so, is there item synthesis again? I didn't like that combination back then, as I felt it was silly to make a new weapon that gives +2 attack, which lucky level-ups can easily provide as well. Or in other words, Fire Emblem (and its good clones) don't have a rather low amount of specific weapons, usually with a use-count, for no reason. Alice Soft's Blade Briders was pretty nice there.

-Shop and "days" I got to pay for back from Kamidori?


Yeah, I really don't know much other than "supposedly like Kamidori"...

>>17097366
I'm not the original poster you're responding to but I can answer those as I'm somewhat into the game, chapter 5.

Dungeons work very similarly to Kamidori, completion percentages, completion rewards for various tasks like discovering all the mining spots and 100%. Still have secret rooms and certain areas that require skills to pass like flying or swimming.

Stats seem the same, can't remember too many specifics from Kamidori but there's definitely FE level up RNG at work. New weapons can be crafted, but each new weapon either comes with a new skill or other bonus outside of just raw damage increases. The big part for me is the elemental types on new weapons to bypass monster resistances. Something that is new (I think) is dismantling weapons and using the parts to upgrade other weapons, giving either accuracy or damage bonuses.

Setting up shop and having to pay off a debt is completely gone, but there is a system for raising "Goddess points" to advance the storyline. I've never had a problem getting these points, since they come from everything; crafting, character events, dungeon drops, etc.

For similarities to Kamidori the biggest ones are crafting, the dungeon systems, and the skill systems. My only complaint with the gameplay is that some of these dungeons feel super long. They seem to have ramped up in length compared to Kamidori, or at least ramped up earlier in the story.

>>17097649

Thanks. I guess I'll check it out then. I still do think that FE stats and such work better in games with a fixed amount of stages, but from what else I hear, it seems to improve on Kamidori and keeps one of the things I really liked about it.

Now if they make another Kami no Rhapsody with an actual functional magic/skill system and giving all characters seals regardless of if they've joined already or not, I'm happy. I really liked the "can't grind" aspect of that in combination with the strategic elements without any kind of RNG. (even evade wasn't RNG)

>>17096422

Should I play the first Utawarerumono before playing the console games? It seems like the stories are unrelated.

>>17098812
They are direct sequels, 2 takes place not too long after 1, lots of reoccurring characters too, 2 references the plot in 1 often... in other words yes play 1st one first.

>>17098812
It's required.

>>17098819
Alright, makes sense. Still weird they decided to release sequels almost a decade after it's PS2 release.

>>17098849
Plans for a sequel were made almost immediately after the first, circumstances just led to it taking forever to actually get made.

>>17096422
Does this game have time limits to see certain events and such?
I just started playing and wondering if I can farm some materials in peace or do I have to worry about the amount of days passed

>>17098849

It sometimes happens, but rarely is REALLY important. Would be rather bad for sales. I can't comment on this case, but I've yet to see a case where it actually truly applies that a sequel needs to be played. Maybe something like Baldr Sky, but that's kinda.. you know.. one game split into two.

It wasnt very good

I've always wondered this about Eushully and Rance games, and to a lesser extent the Venus Blood games. I know their main appeal is the gameplay, but some are so highly rated on EGS and such it makes me wonder, how are the stories? Worth reading just for it, or more the "decent enough to not distract from the addicting gameplay" type? Basically, is there any merit if you don't give a shit about gameplay or fucking the girls? Not saying there's anything wrong with games focused on just that, it's just not what I'm personally looking for. Actually I might pick up Amayui anyway because the whole cast appeals to me more than past games and I've been reading a lot of scenario-heavy/serious games lately, getting a little burnt out.

I think I've seen around that the Ikusa Megami games are supposed to be good in that regard, at least I've had them on my backlog for a long time.

From the reviews I've read it sounds like the protagonist is a piece of garbage. Don't know if anyone here playing/played it can confirm.

>>17099237
Everything about this game looks attractive except the writing itself is really bland. Everything feels like a filler text, I can't imagine sitting hours reading it.

>>17099171
Haven't played much Eushully games but I don't like them much in terms of either gameplay or story.
Rance on the other hand has some really fun games and the story, while not complex, is usually a blast.

I learned Japanese in highschool. However pretty much at a regular weeb level.
I ended up learning after highschool and then full on serious in learning.
My first jap vn was dracu riot i really liked it I think i found it out when it was on the rage back in 2012. So i guess i started then. Also that mirai girl from that website was being advertised everywhere in that game for some reason, it was like brain washing.
I really liked the game though and had fun, my favourite girl was Elina, and I picked up noble works a couple years ago. It was absolute shit. If anybody reading this wants to try it, don't.

>>17100012
I thought Noble Works was way better than Dracu Riot

>>17100037
Did we read the same thing?
Noble works was absolute shit.
It was pretty much the worst yuzusoft title by far.
Dracu riot had a decent plot with espianage, deceit and each girl had an interesting story that tied in to their route. As well as addding to the overall illegal narcotic trafficking mystery.

>>17100061
The whole plot of dracu riot was steaming garbage and yuzusoft can't write one for shit.

>>17100064
It was pretty good, the deciet, the mystery, the whole working with the police, hostage situations it was prety decent and unexpected for moege nowadays.
Though can't say much for other yuzusoft games this was clearly an outlier.

Kinda a strange request but,
a month or a couple ago people were talking about 枯れない世界.
There was word used here and i can't seem to remember it. It's an English word not a Japanese one and I've been struggling to remember it.
It's along the lines of mysterious or otherworldly and games that have this are considered somewhat pretentious i guess.
I tried thesauruses to no avail. So I'll ask here since I feel somebody who was in that discussion might be able to reply.
Also this game was also mentioned in the discussion https://vndb.org/v835 and that that specific word mathed this game really well.

>>17100087
The hiding identity from friends schtick was more entertaining than whatever half assed plot was in Dracu Riot IMO.
I remember thinking the police relying on minors thing being stupid as fuck.

>>17100122
>minors with superpowers
and given the fact that they have a small police force for a small resort island not to mention that the criminals could also possess the same powers, they prove indispensable.

Fight vamprie criminals with vamprie police really.

>>17100122
Also hiding identities is overused.
Take a look at almost any trap eroge.

Being a vampire solving mysteries and going to school on a resort island thar has its own gambling, a legal sex trade. Taking down thugs who might also be vampires also deal with drugs isn't.

>>17099171
They have decent worldbuilding when it comes to Dir Lifyna lore. Too bad it ends up as a wasted potential in some of their games.

>>17100157
Minors really shouldn't be in a position where they can potentially be held responsible for the lives and deaths of others or be expected to make calm judgements in extreme cases.
And did they give a reason for why they didn't just get adult vampires to help?
I don't remember much of the game desu.

I know there is a 100yr+ loli grandma who's secretly the mayor,
I think there aren't that many or they hid from the experiments like they mentioned. They pretty much are kept there and trapped in a way.
Also the russians tried to make a synthetic vampire. So they aren't that abundant.
Again its been like 5 years my memory is minda hazy.

>>17100216
I don't think it's that thread.

I'm not sure if the word 枯れない世界 was explicitly used, or if it was in furigana or just a picture. Still thanks maybe i can just look for the kageryou vndv link in warasou.

Amayui reviews seem... rocky. A few of these people gave Kamidori 90+ scores too. Something about the map movements in the latter half being very 面倒 but I've no real idea what that means. Was considering making this my first Eushully but maybe I'll go with IMZ after all. Though Fia is tempting my inner moebuta very badly...

>>17101152

Just go with what has the cuter girls or something first and start from there. Speaking of map movements: That's usually ending up annoying in all their games. Eushully has garbage GUIs. IMZ has a GUI that covers like half the freakin' screen and the menu is incredibly unintuitive. And Kamidori is an s-rpg where I think you couldn't even click on the character you want to move, you'd need to click on their portrait if I recall it right.

Also note that IMZ and Kamidori at least are almost like polar opposites in terms of what they focus on. IMZ generally needs a certain.. taste.. to be enjoyable. Both with gameplay and especially with its story. I suppose that's always a bit of a thing with Eushully games anyway.. but yeah. I feel IMZ is pretty heavy in there.

>>17101152
Honestly its dumb to listen to reviews when it comes to Eushully games(except if its Sankai maybe) you should just go with whatever you want and see what clicks with you. IM series is a hit or miss for most people but still considered as their best works. There are also those who really liked MK because of the setting and war plot. Now you also have those who prefer Amayui over Kamidori and vice versa.

>>17101152
I enjoy collecting materials, making stuff and all, so I'm liking it.
Also no Yuela being an evasion monster, so it's a bit more challenging in that regard.

I fucking love headphones but why aren't they used more rather than in some promotional picture or wallpaper.

>>17101603

Based Japanese people. Still have their good old p4 computer in the basement for their eroge.

>>17101638
Writing a character who wears headphones/earmuffs/earbuds often enough for them to be in a standing sprite is annoying for a VN scenarist. Either the character wears them constantly, which means you have trouble writing them doing simple things like hearing background noise, carrying on a conversation, having their ear whispered into, etc. If they wear them only sometimes, then you have to write down into the script their position at the start of each scene, as well as mention it every time they take them on or off. (This is in addition to what kind of clothes they're wearing, their facial expression, the general tone of the BGM for the scene, and all the other stuff VN scenarists and directors have to worry about that normal authors don't.) It also means that there has to be three versions of every standing sprite pose (on ears, on shoulders, no headphones) and it is often felt that these art assets would be better spent on giving the heroine an entire extra pose or several extra expressions.
Headphones don't appear in CGs very often because most CGs are either for H-scenes or sudden events, neither of which are common situations to be wearing headphones.
I'm personally a huge fan of headphones (especially when the girl is just wearing sleepwear or underwear with them) but like umbrellas, purses, suitcases, and sunglasses, you won't see many girls with them in hand-drawn VNs. You can usually find them in 3D-rendered VNs, like Idolmaster, Illusion titles, and of course the Super Sonico VNs.

>>17101765
I think you are overthinking it. If they aren't hearing music at the moment they won't have trouble conversing or hearing things. The scenario doesn't have to pay any special attention to it, unless it's a plot point. There isn't really any deep special reason why they aren't more common except them not fitting most character designs / the creator not feeling any special attraction to that cosmetic tool in particular. If someone really wanted to include them I doubt the reasons you listed would stop them.

Done with Maple Colors H. (aka the Fandisc)

It's a bit of a mixed bag. It does kinda fix what the main-game did wrong, but it has its own issues.
First of all, it's a sequel to the Mirai ending, which should include her being the protagonist's girlfriend and them liking each other and so on. That is indeed the case. Kind of. But you still can't get past the main-story without fucking all the main-heroines that appear. I find that highly questionable.
Going even further I'd argue that while the main-story this time around really gives the heroines outside of Mirai more of a character, due to how the story works they just seem like mad bitches that try to get in the way of a couple in all ways possible. If the authors' goal was to make the character (aside of Mirai) unlikeable, then they succeeded. Towards the end it generally gets fucked up and.. well yeah. I really don't know about this. Funny enough 2 of the main-heroines are absent in this story. They were literally put on a bus. I'd assume nobody liked those two but.. yeah.

Then 2 of the old side-heroines got their own little stories as well. Here Mirai doesn't even act as if she's the protagonist's girlfriend, although she really should be, making these side-stories weird. Outside of that those were fine.

Minigames have been removed from the story, and some of them can be played if you want to unlock lewd art of some of the previous side-heroines. (Still a ton without any kind of content mind you) Some minigames are also missing and you generally have to beat them three times.. without anything changing. I only did one, and found it honestly boring.

Finally: The presentation took a nosedive. Mostly because the game has essentially no voice-acting outside of ero. (and unlike what the game's title may make you want to believe, the ero isn't even close to everything in this fandisc. Less scenes than in the original actually) Artwork was also on average lower quality I feel.
I mean sure, it's a fandisc. But I'm not really seeing this as a well done one. Not sure why they made this a sequel in the first place, and not just a weird dream on drugs.

What's a good moege / charage with a low amount of H scenes (no more than 2-3 per route but still decent length routes)?

Finally finished Asairo after playing it on and off for 4 years. Everything that can be said about it had already been said, but man I don't think I can find another game with a similar atmosphere like this one. The music complements every single scene really well. I could listen to Hiyo's and Waka's themes for hours.

Usually I find stories like this cheesy, but Shuumon's writing came across as very genuine and made certain scenes very touching. The only minus I could think of is how Sasamaru can be a bit of a Mary Sue, even though I love his character's progression.

Saw a few people complaining on EGS and 2ch that the story felt like a self congratulatory puppet theater, but it never reaaally came across to me that way. Although, the prick blue girl and that long haired guy did come off a bit distorted for the sake of the themes. I disagree about the mary sue part just in that the story deals a lot with destiny, and everything and everyone being connected was part of it. Maybe it was a bit exaggerated though since it included pretty much all characters. Also, I think the chuuni professor could have benefited from more screen time. It's a real shame no one cares about Asairo, I think it could actually make for a pretty good anime adaptation. There's a lot of remarkable visual scenes that could transition well to animation and the kanji plot devices could be visually transported a la monogatari. Great VN anyway, I should reread it one day.

Has anyone here played なでしこドリップ?

Anyone plays Amayui hard mode and can tell me how it is? Kami no Rhapsody was kinda silly. (enemy getting unlimited mana while with its system you generally have none) It only says enemies get stronger and traps are influenced.. not sure if that's not just more annoying.

Yeah, tons.
My trick is to not blow my load till the end or near the end, and then I just finish it off because why not?
Also if a nukige is good enough for me to cum to every scene I sure as hell wouldn't lose interest in it after cumming, I'd keep coming back to it for more, gradually making more progress.
It's also good to get nukiges with at least moderately... slightly... interesting settings/characters. Pic related is by all accounts a meh game but I enjoyed reading about the the younger sister trying to steal MC away from the older sister, and the ending I got was especially interesting (older sister breaking up with MC, leading to him feeling dead inside to the point pf him being so comatose the younger sister basically uses him a warm dildo, pretending to have a happy loving relationship despite him basically wasting away in depression). Not literary by any means but I enjoyed reading it beyond just fapping.

キュン is like squeezing. So キュン often references to a girl's vagina squeezing, used as a way to represent love / horniess. Like a guy says something cool so a girl says/goes キュン . Indicating her vagina clenching in love.

>>17104155
>Like a guy says something cool so a girl says/goes キュン . Indicating her vagina clenching in love.
Dude... In normal situations people would think of 胸キュン, not a girl's vagina clenching. Another reason why learning Nip solely from eroge is a bad idea

So, I've been around for awhile and ever since Hongfire died I've been wondering:

Is there a decent resource for old (released before 2014) Visual Novels that aren't new enough to have seeds on their torrents? Almost all the alternatives are just really shady links to old filesharing sites where the games are broken up into 2 to 20 bits, and most of those don't even work because the links are so old.

And I explicitly mean untranslated VNs. It's easy to get copies of old English stuff, but the most interesting nukige is untranslated.

>>17104140
All the time. If I wanted to play a VN for the story I'd play an RPG instead. Well, except in those rare cases when the story is actually good.

But most VNs I play to fap. Sometimes, yeah, the story is fun, like in Gachinko Bitch Club, or it's interesting how the character changes depending on the choices made, like in Ryobo ~Maternity Insult~. There's a reason why I don't just fap to the CG sets.

>Kyuun seems more like the heart/chest tighten or something, I know the feeling.
Just saying, kyun is veeery often used to refer to vagina clenching in porn. He's just talking about non-porn.
>btw I don't think girls think with their vaginas

Also, have we seen their artists or scenario writers credited to other games?

No they don't.
Why you post that?
Please do not post that again.

I just lost my screenshots folder. All my memories, they're gone...（泣）

I heard NTR is dying, with summer comiket having the fewest amount of NTR content that there has ever been.
With that said, I don't seem to see much netorare eroge now. Though I may be overlooking them.
Thoughts?
What would you like seeing take it's place?
近親相姦？
ふたなり？
Another fetish?
More モエゲー・ギャルゲー？

>>17105054

NTR usually has an element of that though so I don't mind it.

>>17105054
I noticed more futanari doujins, not sure about eroge specifically

>>17104831
>>17104750
Their artist worked on some DDM game IIRC

>>17105054
Less NTR.

>>17104750
I think they're still alive. There was a Walkure Romance collab in Kamihime Project just 2 weeks ago.

They seem to have shifted into making DMM gatcha games. But then again, pretty much every eroge company have.

>>17105054
NTR eroge have been on the decline for at least a couple years now. Slut games seem like a good replacement but so few do it right even though it's such a straightforward concept.

Any more suggestions to this? I don't care if it's really average/meh or anything, the "being light on sexual content" criteria is the important part as long as the VN isn't total garbage and you enjoyed it.

>>17105155
Try Tonakoi and fureraba
I love those games and quite a few others here do too.

They're above average though

>>17105155
I'm reading Noratoto atm and I can see why you'd want light on sexual content, this VN is great but it does have a fuckton of sex scenes. They even put some choices in to allow you to skip a few if you want, which was nice of them.

Anyway I recommend Aokana.

>>17105144
I kinda skimmed through it;
So is it a battery for software and with each use it goes down,
eventually treating the copy as an illegal version if it doesn't have one.

I still don't know what game it's for

They definitely look cute in that, but personally I wouldn't have been that upset even if I had seen that before I played that game. The winter atmosphere in that game is perhaps one of my favorites I've seen. I wouldn't have even liked it if they had tried to shoehorn some beach part into it.

>>17105344
They shoehorned a pool part into it anyway.

Sales are NEVER an indication of quality. Sales are only an indication of marketing and visual appeal. Not even specifically talking about nekopara here, just your logic being bad.

>>17107099
"NEVER" is wrong. Sales are indeed often a indicator of high quality. Just not always.

>>17105605
Too bad the protagonist is only partly voiced

What's the appeal of games with a shota and/or trap protagonist?

Traps, I can't give a shit.

>>17107231
Yuri being boring shit for the most part.

>>17107118
It's so infrequently an indicator of high qualtiy it's meaningless. So many well-selling games are bad sales simply cannot be used to say "this indicates the game is high quality". It's equally if not moreso likely to indicator low quality. At that point, the statement becomes pointless and wrong. It's like saying "flipping a coin and it landing on heads is an indicator of whether a game is good or not" - "flipping a coin is NEVER an indication of quality " - "NEVER is wrong. A coin landing on heads is indeed often a indicator of high quality. Just not always."

See? Meaningless and wrong.

>>17107243
>It's so infrequently an indicator of high qualtiy it's meaningless.
It's not infrequent at all though? Almost all the super popular eroge are also the ones that are generally considered the best.
>It's equally if not moreso likely to indicator low quality
This is objectively false. The truly bad games you just never even hear of since people don't generally put money into things they don't like. Pretty simple logic. I think you just have a case of irrationally hating popular things.

>>17107341
It is frequent. At least 50%. Therefore, just like a coin, it's meaningless and wrong, not an indicator of quality. You're irrational about liking popular things.

>>17107378
>It's equally if not moreso likely to indicator low quality
Your logic doesn't even make sense. Why is it only applicable to "popular" things? How is a game that only solid 5 copies more likely to have "higher quality" than one that sold 100k?
I don't like popular things because they're popular, I like them because they have elements that makes them popular. Like budget, better staff etc. Whereas you hate stuff for no reason at all except mental ones.

>>17107341

if you aren't trolling and actually believe this, i regret to inform you that the eroge that sell the most are probably not what you think they are lol

>>17107477
Listen to me. SALES are not an indicator of quality. That includes low sales and high sales.

>>17105160
Read Tonakoi and really liked it. Will give
Fureraba a try.

>>17105178
Yeah pretty much. H-scenes are nice and all every once in a while, bu when the routes are filled with H scenes like that it kinda ruins it for me since I end up skipping them because I'm not in the mood for it, and the route usually ends up being kinda subpar to me.

>>17107525
That statement is wrong, as high sales indeed indicate higher quality as opposed to low sales a lot of the time. There are exceptions, but that's the rule.

>>17107580
When 50% of the games are exceptions, it's not a rule.

>>17107593
Luckily they aren't, then.

I kinda liked how Himawari Natsuyasumi dit it.

-First common route. Like 190kb till OP
-Then route. The one that matters ~280kb (although the first part is technically still common although it gets slight changes based on the route you'll get) -> credits roll
-Then epilogue. 170kb out of which about 110kb is ero.

It's an interesting idea, although obviously the epilogue reads almost like a nukige, and isn't just skipable either. If they had taken 3 scenes out of it and left as omakes, it would've been even better, but at least you get a solid route with the story closing and everything without random ero. Might make you think again, why ero in the first place.. but well, that debate is a whole different thing.

>>17107639
Hinazakura best epilogue.

>>17107639
This game seems a lot shorter than I thought. Do you know the numbers for Hinas route too?

>>17102621
>>17103260
Sometimes I feel like something is wrong with me for not enjoying asairo as much as everyone else. I went in with high expectations and found myself wondering when things get interesting before it ended. I mean, yeah, it had emotional high points here and there. I just never felt what I felt for other games that are usually praised in this thread. All I got out of it was -FRIENDSHIP-, -KIZUNA-, wishing the 青姉妹 got a bit more attention, and a strong nod to the tag ヒヨゲー.

Thanks to >>17100049 I decided to read the VN Gochi Chino. One issue with nukige is that porn is fundamentally better when you're emotionally attached to the characters involved, which is why moege have long common routes and romance buildups before they get to the sex. But if you're reading a VN for the porn you don't want large amounts of character development. A solution to this is to make fanfiction of popular franchises, so you can let other people do the work of making cute lovable characters that the reader gets attached to, and then you just have to provide the porn. Doujin manga do this all the time but it's rarer for VNs, I wish there was more.

>>17107666

Once I'm done with it, whenever that is. But I doubt it'll be THAT long. Technically the game has 2 more routes but I really don't care about them. Not sure if anyone would, really, unless you are a major Kawashima fan or something.

>>17107979
Tsukiko's route is neat, especially considering Hina's route.

>>17107989

The absence of that in the PC version is actually one good reason to not bother with the other 2 "side-girls" either. Though I honestly don't care about Tsukiko either. Before playing Yomi's maybe, but afterwards as in now? Nah, my heart is set. Yomi won.

>>17108017
Poor, poor Yomi though, can't compete with Hina.

Any opinions on the Kansen series? Is it a "if you've played one, you've played them all" thing?

>>17107185
I like experiencing a story from a young and inexperienced kid's perspective. Too bad that most VN with shota MC treat them like harem master that woman will instantly want their dick no matter what and the shota will gladly accept it, instead of something like slice of life kids doing kids stuff, maybe with some sex scene here and there as a side dish to spice things up.

So, tried this out and the hardmode tutorial was already not exactly easy. Past that I didn't have any issues.. yet, but I'm not too far in so that may change. But given that I can in theory "grind" now it'll probably work out? Wouldn't be the first game where the tutorial is the hardest part.

Something seems weird/bugged with some adv effects though. I feel my transitions don't exist or aren't frame-capped or something. It looks super weird. No idea if this is supposed to be normal or not. But when I was in the village to get some "faith" or whatever, there was a moment a sprites was running over the screen (?) so fast I barely even saw it. Seemed.. wrong.

Did you check the glossary? There's a lot of explanations in there, even what exactly buffs do and so on. I haven't really looked much, but it could help. So far the only thing I don't really know is how the charge thingy works. For now I'll just assume "you need to attack x times for a charge attack being available", with x being whatever charge you need. Maybe. I don't think you see what charge you currently have either.. but that's Eushully GUI. Kinda like how hovering over a field doesn't show you what it does, nope, gotta right click it.

Went back and finished Rina's route in Fureraba. I did Himari's and Misaki's a long while ago but I saw people saying nice things about Rina's recently. Didn't expect the personality shift, but I ended up really liking her and her route. I'm a sucker for kind-of-but-not-extremely clingy girls. Definitely reminded me of Sora's route from Pure x Connect, where she goes from an 幼馴染 who banters with the MC to almost a light yandere. Her character was similarly fleshed out to a girl who had a complex about being not hated and wanted to be loved by someone. Overall, really enjoyed the route, the ending/epilogue made me tear up. Might just do Yuzuyu's route in the future if I ever get another urge to play some moege. One of the few games I've played where I've liked almost all the girls. Not to mention I can't get enough of Smee MCs it seems.

When I try to read Shirokuma Bell Stars I get picture related. I'm running it out of a folder with no spaces. I have my date/time region set to Japan and my non-unicode locale is set to Japanese. The only things I don't have set are Location and UI language. Is this a locale-related problem or a modern windows-related one? I remember hoshimemo having a similar crash that was caused by clock settings but that game runs fine with date/time region set to Japan.

>>17111573
Nice to see people reading things because of the posts in the screenshot thread. It really was such a great route, I cried at the ending too.

>>17107933
This is somewhat genius.
I mean think about it.
Moege struggles to make decent characters development without boring the player and at times fails to do so properly, at most times it's done in bad taste to an extent people only sit through it for the sex.
Meanwhile anime, vns, manga that aren't sex focused has the player properly build a bond with the characters without the promise of sex. I mean sure there may be sexualising of the characters.
However as the player forms a bond without the characters being involved in sex scnes that take up a quarter of the game, we tend to see the character as a human being, rather than something to please your dick and not having the promise of sex does that.
With that when you read doujins they feel separate and as such the original bond you have for the character is preserved, yet your sexual lust is satiated.
I feel more eroge should have this: A regular version with no sex and let the user see them as a human being and have a more fulfilling story and after wards maybe release an after story like sex in a seperate copy.
I feel it's a away for eroge to compete with non-ero media lke anime, manga and vns better.

I did her first expecting her to be the bland one so I wanted to get her out of the way, but she really grew on me once things started developing. I think it was the first time I loved every scene in a route. I didn't want to move on when it was over. I overdid my expectations for Yuzuyu so it wasn't as good for me, but melting her tsun was still pretty great.

>>17111836

Is Rina that good?
I didn't like her that much in the common route.

I overall like Misaki the best out the girls she's so precious. However her confession wasnt that great. As she wasnt sure she liked the mc and pretty much said yet to enjoy their time more as friends. It was so weird, escpecially since I tgough that she confused friendship for love.

Bestest parfait.

After three years of studying Japanese, I'm finally going to start reading visual novels (I started learning to be able to read tankoubons)

Found a really good game with art from Sei Shoujo; Closed Room. I can tell this is gonna be pretty frustrating, as I've never "practiced" reading before, only vocabulary, speaking(Which I'm somehow good at, kek) and basic grammar.

With that said, aside from ITHVNR, are there any other good parsers that aren't dead? I noticed that ITH lacks furigana, which is a crutch I'd like to rely on for a little bit

>>17112079
Try Chiitrans Lite. Also, this question is better suited for DJT.

>>17112079
The only parser I know of that isn't dead is Spark Reader, but it's a relatively unstable java program. Stay away from chiitrans lite, its parsing is garbage and it doesn't let you fix it. Your best bet is to follow DJT's guide and set up a clipboard grabber in a web browser with rikasama or yomichan.

Yah its a phenomenal route and personally one of my favorites I have ever read which might sound ridiculous but is true. Its just a such a well put together route. The build up between you and Rina was honestly my favorite portion and was not something I have found in most moege. It really felt you slowly started to awaken to love for each other and not knowing how to handle it because of how long you knew each other and how familiar you two were before prior to the events that take place. It created some pretty cute situations that sometimes felt almost like an indirect confession like when Rina gets confessed to but turns the guy down and you say you would have been devastated if she had said yes.

It also has really funny, memorable scenes and the drama in my opinion was also very well executed, It really felt like it was actually thought out, the MC recalling events that happened in the past near the end helped reinforce the idea behind Rina's mannerisms throughout the route.

I was honestly choking up at the end.

>>17111766
Some games just don't run on newer OS no matter what you do. You can try running it in a VM.

>>17112251

Although sometimes there are ways around. Googling the game's name + win7 (or whatever you use) can help. Sometimes you need a different version (i.e. Maple Colors won't run in its original CD versions on something like win7, you need at least the Maple Pack versions), sometimes some hex-editing or whatever. Though I'm sure there'll be cases where you really can't do anything else but a VM if you want to play it.

have only played 新・白銀のソレイユ -ReANSWER- from the series as did it just week or so ago when I noticed that there was new game coming to series and it's art was done by Rubi-sama and darker focus, so wanted to know bit what kind of series it was other than the tone shift in this newest. and as far as ReANSWER goes it was fairly mediocre the kind of work that you read when you are out of other better things. Art was nice and the main characters were fun and setting seems like it could be interesting to see other works how its expanded but other than that I don't think anything else really stood up but it didn't really annoy me much other than the endings using one of my more hated plot elements and the non-main routes feeling slightly pointless. Will still read the new upcoming one because of art and will decide after that whatever or not I do the older ones

Omokage Railback
O-uchi ni Kaeru Made ga Marshmallow Desu
Tantei Seven
Haruoto Alice＊Gram
Bishoujo Mangekyou -Tsumi to Batsu no Shoujo-
Ren’ai Kyoushitsu

I probably won't play them all but still I like it.

Can I enjoy this if I don't have a giantess fetish?

>>17113544

No. This is for men who can only get off if a single tit is weighing more than themselves and who'd really like to have a single tit for a bed. Just like waterbeds, just better. Exploring the titty valley is also a good amount of fun, as is tit climbing. And let's not forget the most fun of them all: The titty slide.

Does anyone have additional patch to Scarlett that adds voice acting to male characters?

>>17113787
Yeah.

Any eroge with heroine similar to Zero from Drakengard 3?

>>17113833

>>17113837

>>17113908
>she is not moe enough
She's a classic tsundere and her gap moe by the really end is really powerful.
But a girl cursing her way through massacres then fucking four different guys at the same time isn't really VN-friendly, even in nukige.

>>17113934
well, being similar doesn't mean being a literal copy of Zero.

>>17113955
Yeah, but zero is not zero without the cursing and the unsatiable sex urges she doesn't shy away from.

>>17113934
Hot. I want heroines that fuck around, but not NTR. Like, just casual fucks with no relationship, and when she finally enters one she is loyal. Pure shit just got too boring.

And finished the Hina route. Way too long and below what I expected.

I kinda liked when part 2 took place though. It taking place 20 years after Yomi dies left at least somewhat of an impression for me. Unfortunately they just jump major jumps. Hina's route would've really benefited from a more smooth development. That way there wouldn't have been any need for the padding in the middle-part where it felt like even the author has no idea what he wants to do there. Wouldn't help the drama which is about as much as I expected from this author (Konozora's mainstory had similar issues), but still.
Well, at least Hina was mostly a fun character.


In the end I mostly enjoyed what I read at least. Still, at least 2 of the 4 routes this game has feel.. unnecessary. The characters feel like fine side-characters to me, but not like characters that needed a route. Maybe that's just me.

>>17113978
A lot of the ビッチ games are like that.

>>17113023
>japanese are hopeless pedophiles
Lolis are rarely best girls and are boring as fuck.

Anyone played ChronoBox yet? any impressions?

>>17114810
EGS?

>>17113978
A certain heroine from Zero Infinity is like that. She fucked a significant part of the WW2 Russian army when she took part in the war, but she's loyal once the relationship starts. But maybe it doesn't count since she did it to get everyone to like her and prioritize her safety over their own lives, and not for fun.

>>17114764

I still think Japan designs heroines by giving all the same amount of plot. Plot meaning things like background, characterization... and size of breasts. In other words, the bigger the tits, the less relevant the character is as they assume, people are gonna want those tits anyway. Himanatsu works pretty much exactly like that, and a surprising amount of other games do as well. Sometimes even something like Nobuchina happens. Or Fortissimi, where a short flatty steals the show, while the titty main-heroine is never really relevant. In fact, you could argue, she isn't even the main-heroine.. she's just looking nice on the cover and acts as if because she has the tits to draw in customers.. or something.

That's obviously not necessarily lolis. Nobuchina isn't a loli, neither are the characters in Himanatsu. Okay, I guess that depends on the definition of loli, but whatsoever, I don't consider all flat girls lolis. But it's still a funny thing.

What would you say are VNs with top tier BGMs?

I've felt this way for quite a while. If someone has big breasts, they feel that she doesn't need anything else. Take the hundreds of mellow, nondescript housewives in NTR titles as an example (you can tell them from what I like to call the "I have no personality but I have big breasts" pose, pic related). Even tsunderes have a personality, albeit a memetic one.

The case that made the biggest impression on me was Gyakushuu 4, in which the only non-bakunyuu heroine (not a loli, but might as well be one compared to the others) is the only one who's actually intelligent, the only one the game allows you to treat with some modicum of respect (which she deserves far more than the other heroines), and the only one who can figure out that you have mind-reading abilities, resist the mindbreak meme, and essentially hack you out of existence in one of her endings.

>>17115230
Maybe not top tier, but Kanojo wa Sora ni Inoranai has some nice BGMs, most of them with vocals IIRC. And the battle themes are great.

>>17115230
Muramasa, Senshinkan/Bansenjin, Baldr sky, Mahoe, Umineko. I also liked some parts of Eustia's ost, a few tracks from c;c, subahibi, and asairo. Most of rail/liarsoft stuff has great openings, but the actual ost there is mostly mediocre.

>>17112772
>The concept of the game is a mix of 燃え (fiery battles) and 萌え (moe), with a somewhat traditional feel. There’s only happy ends,

Huh, isnt this strange. How does he knows there's only happy ends even before the release date? Did the company spoiled endings at the trial or something?

Time for me to play and hate it then? .. maybe after I'm done with the three things I'm trying already.
But honestly, the premise sounds pretty bad. Doesn't need to mean anything. I've enjoyed some eroge that had bad sounding settings or whatever but they simply either used it well, or the whole thing ended up differently than what you'd assume from just a short summery. But of course that's rare.

The question with early opinions like this is always how accurate that stuff is. Early players are obviously attracted by something already. So someone like me (and generally those who aren't playing it yet) has already a rather different starting view on things at the very least.

Everyone's anticipating for omokage after a year it was announced. And I've been following the short stories in their website and that shit in DMM so far. They've set up a pretty good introductory so far.

And there sure is a big difference in price for the standard and dx version. That daki looks pretty sweet.

Their (at least recent) games are pretty damn shitty, all they have going for them is fulfilling the niche of a trap protag. Not sure why they'd move away from it.

Where should I start with the _____ x Cation series? Never got around to playing it before.

I always hear that Lovely x Cation 2 is pretty great, but are there any other stand-out titles in the franchise to know about?

>>17121573
Why not just go oldest to newest, skipping ones that don't have a heroine you like? Unlike some titles that may be worth reading certain routes even if you don't particularly like a heroine, it's really not the case with this series. (Not a bad thing, they're meant to be just pure icha love and that's what they do.)
I did enjoy Lovely x Cation 2 more than the others, but that was just because I liked the heroines and the art the most.

>>17121573
Doesn't matter. It's not like they're connected. Just pick the game with a heroine which piques your interest.
