Probably. Convenient reminder for anyone who doesn't read the Valkyrie Drive thread that Bhikkhuni is now out for everyone.

>>2164780
Got this from reddit:

>A heads up for anyone interested in this: the all-ages is version pretty butchered and you should buy the 18+ if you are going to play it. The steam version cuts out story and character essential scenes and no transitions were written to smooth over the missing material. It's done really sloppily.

A game about negligee and yuri sounds right up my alley.

Are the same people who worked on Honeypop working on this, or is it just the character designer?

>>2164790
It's not the huniepop devs, it's AJ Tilley/Dharker Studios, whose games are mostly complete shit. but since they have different people working on different games you never really kno what you're going to get.

So how about that Ladikiller in bind, huh.

>>2164798
Which part are you objecting to? The Nutaku exclusive? It's a temporary exclusive that they get paid a bonus for, I think. The 18+ version should be out on denpasoft eventually. At least, I certainly hope so.

>apparently the non-H cut is a disaster
Wow, what a surprise! I literally cannot believe this!

>>2164812

It is. The original was "all ages". The adult content was always just an add-on patch. And not having an add-on shouldn't be a problem.. normally. Though I dunno if the original "all ages" one is the same as the English one. It should be, I wouldn't know why not, but eh. Sekai.

>>2164788
I really have to disagree. Not having the H patch only skips three scenes, and they're just sex. They aren't that important.

>>2164833
okay. so is it any good? besides the art

>>2164869
The story is kinda interesting, the girls are cute and very gay, and the music's alright. I hesitate to call it good before I've read the second part, though, because this one isn't satisfying on its own. I'm eager to read the second part, at least.

I remember the script having some localisation decisions I thought were dumb, but I guess that's normal.

>>2164888
>this one isn't satisfying on its own.
It leaves plot threads hanging for part 2 or something?

>>2164890
I guess, yeah, if I know what you mean. There's a cliffhanger and such.

Seriously when its going to come out?

yuri games with different girls to choose are my weakness
Also the same company released two yuri audio products, one which is a girl confessing her love to you and another which is your onee-sanmaking love to you

>>2164985
Last estimate was that they were hoping for C92 (and C91 for Yurinate)

>>2165006
Cool, but must be a very big project for them to take that long

What's the story btw

Okay, just so I'm 100% understanding this regarding Persona 3. If I hang out with Junpei and the girls, I'll default to lesbian, but if I hang out with any other guy, there's a chance it'll turn out het?
If that's the case, perfect.

You can hang out with anyone you want, i never finished any of the guys S. Links but from what i know you can friendzone them if you want

But none of the S. Links other than Fool, Death and Judgement are obligatory

>>2165030
You can friendzone you male s. links and lez out with Liz or touch Aigises neck pussy. Actually I think you can do both even while dating everyone available too. Hermit s. link is the lewdest as it involves numerous accounts of hand holding.

>>2165045
>>2165052
Okay, I see. Is there a way for me to get other girls together? Can I do something for that nameless girl at the school who likes Mitsuru?

>>2165030
You will never be forced into a het route without explicitly picking it. However, some of the male SLs can have some semi-romantic (depending on your point of view; I never found anything that couldn't have been just close friendship, except for some Ken events) conversations.
I'd still recommend completing all SLs. Although if you're playing for the first time, you might need a guide. Especially for the final part when Aegis's SL opens up.

>>2165053
You can't.

>>2165055
>You can't.

Why would you want to separate the best Persona yuri couple?

Even if you want, you can't

Speaking of Persona, does all the games in the series have same kind of music as the fourth one?

>>2165065
I dunno. Does P4 have a lot of repetitive bad jPop?

>>2165065
No, i didn't play the first one but P2, P3, P4 and now P5 all have different musc styles

>>2165191
Denpasoft is distributing the free patch already (as is the developer) but currently they do not have a standalone release, so it may or may not show up there in the future. Otherwise, I imagine it will show up on Nutaku at some point.

>>2165220
I enjoyed Starlight Vega. It's not wonderful, but it was worth whatever I paid for it.

>>2165230
Razz is doing an incest yuri game now. That one looks better than Starlight Vega.

>>2165220
Surprised you didn't even mention Queen of thieves an extremely mediocre VN/RPG by Winterwolves.

Also will Catch canvas have an invisible protag so we can't tell if they are male or female? Or will it be a female we can actually see I don't want another Huniepop yuri even if I did enjoy the gameplay of Huniepop.

>>2165234
I find that if I go into these "games" with low expectations I'm less angry and disappointed than many people in this thread seem to be. I think it's a good approach. Don't expect too much.

>>2165236
You are my nigger.

>>2165236
Generally people don't get that angry or disappointed. 4chan just likes to complain a lot. Ladykiller is a notable recent exception.

>>2165243
I see a lot of people get really bent out of shape over "Sweet Volley High" even though I can't determine why except "it has a het route".

And I really can't imagine being upset over something like that. It's not like it's set up to trap you.

>>2165236
Wise words but I feel my anger is due to expectations being high from older games that Winterwolves have made like Loren that were actually decent. I know they can do better which is why I am pissed and I am pissed because they waste time with shitty side projects no one asked for. When Loren 2 is a game lots of people asked for with good art by Western VN standards and about 5 or 6 girlxgirl romances to choose from. You are right Anon but its hard not to feel this way after years of waiting.

>>2165234
>Queen of thieves
that one looked okay, but
>$25

>>2165245
From what I could tell in the previous thread it was just one really dedicated shitposter.

>>2165220
I'm getting the distinct feeling you've never actually played these games.

>>2165245
It basically boiled down to only one of the yuri routes had a good end, the other two were bad ends, and I think you had to go through the het route to unlock one of the girls (with the bad end)

Okay I think its best until we wait for some fool on steam to buy catch canvas even if I do like Razzart after Starlight Vega. However I don't have much interest in a 'yuri' game with an invisible protag since I could just imagine in my head that the protag is a girl. I will just keep an eye on steam to see if I can find any pics posted proving that the protag can be visibly seen at any point with any of the 3 love interests. That way it will be more than shitty text changes to an invisible protag.

>>2165270
I'm going through it now and I don't expect to see visible protagonist, it certainly hasn't happened yet though I've only read a little bit of it. Maybe in the H-scenes but even that's a bit optimistic. There's plenty of lines that reference the protag's gender/orientation though.

>>2165275
So it's not just a pronoun switch for male/female MC? That's encouraging.

>>2165245
If you're talking about last thread that was all one guy who had not even played it. Some double purityfag who hated it just because it had an optional het route.

That being said it might actually be not very "/u/ friendly", but it doesn't seem like anyone in these threads has played it yet so we don't know anything other than what has been said in the few reviews by other people. No word on the actual writing quality or anything from what I can tell, just mentions of the endings/routes. Someone couldn't figure out how to do one of the girl routes and thought you had to do the het route to unlock it, but it was not confirmed.

>>2165279
It doesn't seem to be a huge focus but the lines seem more rewritten than just simple pronoun switching.

>>2165284
To be clear: I don't mean to get anyone's hopes up, it's obviously not a totally different experience for a female protag, but playing as a female I can see more than a couple of lines they'd have to totally rewrite for a male protag, not just swap some words around. And I'm only like a half hour or so in as I get pretty frequently distracted when reading VNs. I'm assuming it'll be the same ratio for the rest of it but I don't actually know that.

>>2165245
There was one super-dedicated shitposter who kept screaming that it was the worst game ever for no actual reason.

Turns out it really IS terrible (see >>2165269
), but that person didn't know that, they were just trying to create drama, like >>2165220 whose posts are half lies

>>2165275
Thank you for your noble sacrifice onee sama I appreciate it. While the text is some good news I fear that we won't be so lucky with the CGs it will just be one more disappointing game to add to the pile in the last few weeks.

>>2165280
>Someone couldn't figure out how to do one of the girl routes and thought you had to do the het route to unlock it, but it was not confirmed.
It was later confirmed that you had to have sex with the male option in order to unlock the last girl 'route' and it wasn't even a full route.

>>2164767
>Negligee is available on Nutaku, coming later elsewhere
Just a reminder that the person behind that studio, Adam Tilley, has a reputation as a shady character who may or may not have been embezzling money from their dozens of Kickstarters

>>2165292
Honestly it's cheap enough that I don't mind that much, I figure I'll get my ~tenbux worth at least

>>2165296
>may or may not have
he owns a mansion

>>2165294
Where was it confirmed?

I legit want to know.

If possible I'd like to know what all five possible routes/endings are, since only 4 pursuable characters leaves one extra.

>>2165317 here.

I can't find any reviews online, but instead I found some red flags from the developer.

Someone asked them on Steam about the concerns we had in the last thread, possibly even one of us. According to the devs their intention was for the main character to be bisexual and they wanted to portray that. They also suggested that traditional yuri fans play the het route to gain more insight into the characters. Bad.

Perhaps they called it yuri/otome since there is no genre for bisexuals. Either way, not looking good. If they alienate yuri fans with het and don't have enough content for otome fans then who is left? Not smart.

http://steamcommunity.com/app/523730/discussions/0/350543389010325529/

Still waiting for reviews but not hopeful.

>>2165334
An optional het route can be ignored, but I'm autistic and would play it anyway for the character development...quite the dilemma

>>2165334
It's fucking retarded. Buy Kindred, Nurse Love, or even A Kiss for petals instead of this.

Why even advertise it as a Yuri game?

Made it pretty far into what I'm assuming is still the "common" route of Catch Canvas. I'm playing as the female protagonist and it's pretty yuri so far.

also one of the girls constantly peeks on and steals the panties of the other girls for obvious purposes

The climax of the beach "episode" and subsequent drama seems kind of retarded though... I dunno. I mean it makes perfect sense for her to be pissed off at the others for it but I find myself wondering why the hell the writers decided to write in "one girl gets naked kancho'd" as an actual plot point.

Pretty mediocre overall so far, though I did get some laughs out of it. And like one poster already said, it's clear that the male/female protagonist switch involves more than just changed pronouns, which is appreciated.

>>2165349
Have you encountered any bugs? One of the gallery thumbnails doesn't display correctly for me, though the image itself is fine so it's not a big deal.

I'm enjoying it even if it feels like a pretty standard harem scenario with a girl protag instead of a guy, though I could imagine some of /u/ will dislike it for that reason

>>2165354
>Have you encountered any bugs? One of the gallery thumbnails doesn't display correctly for me, though the image itself is fine so it's not a big deal.
I just checked the gallery and image 09 of 21 is showing error text where the thumbnail should be.
>image 'thumb_estellebath_sex' not found.

Can't click on it either.

>>2165419
Clicking on it works for me, try clicking on the text and around the edge of the box

>>2165421
Nope, it's not working at all.

>>2165423
That's strange, I have the same thumbnail error but clicking on the text brings up the gallery image just fine. I tried it using the uncensor patch and with the original h.rpa and it works on both (and shows different images).

>>2165220
How was brilliant shadows Yuri bait? Also sweet valley was a red flag the moment they posted the cgs

>Catch Canvas
>$9
Shit, didn't realize it was so cheap. Still, the setting seems really bland to me- if it has passable smut I would probably buy it though.

Everyone who's played Catch Canvas: Do the ero CGs show the protagonist's gender?

>>2165458
Don't know yet but I'm willing to bet it's just nudes of the heroines.

>>2165458
I haven't reached any of the love scenes yet or I'd tell you

My expectation is the same as >>2165460 though

>>2165458
Nope. Solo images.

>>2165464
That's disappointing. But then again, for a $9 price point you can't really expect them to have made two sets of all the CGs.
Hopefully the writing for the scenes is decent.

>>2165466
While I haven't actually reached the love scenes yet I found the writing in the lewder scenes to be somewhat amusing

>>2165429
What was wrong with the CGs? I only saw two but they seemed alright.

Started Sakura Dungeon and it's fun, but i'm mildly disappointed by the H scenes so far.
Do the girls do anything other than dildo each other? Toys don't do much for me.

>>2165507
There's a bit of fingering and 69ing too.

It's a good game, probably the best offering from WC, but would have preferred a smaller cast with better characterization. Most of the girls you recruit last only a floor or two before you switch them out and forget about them.

>>2165509
Most of the girls have specific lines at specific moments... of which you will only read the ones from the girls you have on your party All the other lines are lost for good.
That's just bad game design in my opinion.

Also the things you need to do to recruit the Dragon and Anubis are sorta unclear. Same with the things you need to do to get the UFO

>>2165507
A lot of the early scenes have toys, but there's a good amount of toyless ones later on.

>>2165220
I don't know shit about most of those, but I agree that Rising Angels is pretty weak in the yuri department. Nothing gets resolved.

>>2165347
>Why even advertise it as a Yuri game?
They didn't. They always advertised it as yuri/otome. Even in the post you were responding to it was described that way.

>>2165542
Which Rising Angels game, though? It's a whole series with a lot of separate entries afaik

>>2165617
Which should have been a dead giveaway. It's like advertising water as boiling/frozen.

>>2165623
a dead giveaway of what? that it was exactly what it said it was, a game with both male and female love interests? That's not a giveaway. That's exactly what it said on the tin.

"Welcome to our shop! We sell dresses and pants."

>>2165230
Agree. It's good, but not amazing. Low budget, but it also doesn't cost much.
Bottom line, would recommend.

>>2165347
When 80% of the game is yuri, I think it's fair to advertise it as yuri, since only autistic purityfags like you will get upset about it.

Catch Canvas is out on steam now, can't post decent CGs because the protagonist never appears in them, apparently it's almost entirely common route and a tiny branch at the end to focus on the girl you pick. Not a deep game but no one expected it to be

Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1 is 80% off on GOG this weekend. The DLC pack is 50% off.

>>2165542
But that's not the focus of the series; it is about the adventure of the protagonist with her romantic exploits being weaved into that adventure. It's naturally going to be weaker since that's not its focus.

>>2165542
That's because Fates hasn't been made yet. Lenna makes an appearance in the game and both Yoi and Faye are romance interests for Natalie's sister. Natalie can get with Zuri or Kika or Alexei. So it basically resolves both of the previous Rising Angels games romance plots.

Catch Canvas is very short and it doesn't actually seem to have routes, you just pick the girl you want at the end. Maybe if you don't get enough flags they turn you down, but that didn't happen in my playthrough.

The ending includes a sex scene that is of decent length and obviously very different for males and females. It's not word-swapping, the one I saw was written as two girls having sex. You don't see the protagonist herself, as expected, just the other girl. There's more to the ending than the sex scene, there's also a "some time later" scene.

I don't like to judge quality as that's super subjective. I enjoyed it well enough, but it's about what you'd expect for an nine/ten dollar game in terms of length and total content. I have a number of gallery CGs still locked even though I finished the game so it's obvious I'm going to need to go back and make different choices to see more scenes. Harem-ish shennanigans with lewd girls is the focus of the game.

>>2164766
What is this game?

>>2165971
Thank you for your review. From 1 to 10, how would you rate the cgs?

>>2166067
Mostly I'm good with them, I mean, you can tell the art style from the preview stuff and it doesn't really change. There are maybe two that look a little... "off" to me, as in the clothing looks weird, but I have a hard time quantifying that kind of thing. I'm planning to view the other endings later, but the nude CGs I got were hot enough for me. So... maybe a 7? I have low standards/no eye for art so maybe not the best person to ask

Best I can say is if you like the images used to promote the game you'll probably be okay with the CGs. I think the girls look good in the nude.

>>2166069
Excellent. I heard terrible things about others like A Wild Catgirl Appears.

So, after seeing this screenshot I decided I'll play Vampires: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, but I suck at this kind of game. I read there's a race, ventrue or something like that can get everything using persuasion is there any character guide for this game?

>>2166083
Think of race as clan because you're a vampire. No other race available to you

>>2166083
Tremere uber alles.

>>2166085
Yeah, clan, that's what I mean. So there's a guide for it or not?

>>2166087
Tremere are good then? But isn't persuasion also important to flirt with other female characters?

>>2166087
Malkavian is the only true way to experience this game.

>>2166097
>Malkavian is the only true way to experience this game.
but being a Malkavian is suffering

>>2166083
Play as Malkavian, they get the best dialogue in the game.

>>2166083
Get the unofficial patch. It fixes/restores a bunch of shit plus it comes with a pretty comprehensive guide. http://www.moddb.com/mods/vtmb-unofficial-patch

>>2166097
>>2166099
so randumb dialogues are hardly "the best" or "true way" to play the game.

>>2166097
>>2166087
Wrong wrong wrong. Tzimisce is the best

>>2166102
While I would agree with on that it's not the true way to play it, it is the most interesting. The dialogue is not really random as much as cryptic and it's not hard to make sense of most things said in context after you get used to it. It also comes with some interesting insight.

>>2166104
I've never find Malk's particular brand of choices that interesting myself but I'd give you that. I'm just sick of people make it like playing Malk is the be-all, end-all way to play Masquerade because it's """"unique"""".

>>2166108
To be fair, it is probably the only game in existence where you can play someone who is that brand of "completely fucking insane but somehow sees things more clearly than normal people". I have yet to play another game where I can talk to a street sign and learn something from it. So it would for sure be """"unique"""".

Bad for a first run though. A lot of things are spoiled, if you can make sense of what your own character is saying/hearing or the reactions to it.

>>2166090
Play whatever you want, you can level persuasion and seduction on any character. Of the three dialogue skills Intimidate is mostly useless and Persuasion and Seduction are both useful on both genders, though I believe there were a few differences very few people in the game do not swing both ways. If you want /u/ stuff level Seduction and make sure you hit the clubs for the "blood dolls"

Tremere are fun if you want to play a caster, my blood mage with a pistol was really fun. Gangrel are great if you want to go full apeshit melee, with the right set up you can tank automatic rifle fire like its nerf guns as you close in. Ventrue specialize in the social aspect with both Dominate and Presence which open up more dialogue, and I think they get even more dominate options in dialogue. Nosferatu have a bad mechanic for new players (due to being ugly as sin they need to stealth on the surface) but they can still interact with important human NPCs and the dialogue is worth playing a 2nd or 3rd run for, and in return they are the best at stealth. Never played a Toreador but they are the twilight-type and I think they have some unique dialogue options like Ventrue due to their Presence instead of Dominate. Brujah is whatever.

Make sure you download the unofficial patch. It is not optional. It will also add a selectable background trait at character creation which you don't want to miss, I believe there was one that doubles blood gains from drinking from females and halves gains from males.

>>2166121
Yeah, I wouldn't necessarily recommend playing as Malkavian for the first time around, even though I did it myself.

Speaking of Bloodlines, RPG Codex did an interview with the art director just recently, which I found interesting:
http://www.rpgcodex.net/content.php?id=10425

>>2166103
>all these plebeians
Nosferatu all day every day.

>>2166083
All clans are briefly described on the character creation screen. Technically, you can complete the game using only persuasion and seduction with most clans (excluding Nosferatu, because, well, have you seen them?), but Toreador, Tremere and Ventrue can use vampiric abilities in dialogues, which gives you a slight advantage if you plan to focus solely on social skills. If you're into roleplay, Toreador would probably fit you better as they tend to be closer to humans than other clans.

>>2166090
>But isn't persuasion also important to flirt with other female characters?
Persuasion or other vampire powers are useless for that, it's Seduction that's important. If I remember my numbers right, to get the most out of the flirt options with women you'll want Seduction at 3 early on, then 4 once you reach the next hub, then 6 for the following hub, and utlimately aim for 8. Every clan has access to these options as long as they meet these stats requirements, except Nosferatu who can't use Seduction.

>>2166060
The graphic there is from Negligee i think

>>2166078
>I heard terrible things about others like A Wild Catgirl Appears
If you heard awful things about that game's CGs when it first launched, they were horrible frankensteinian creations stitched together because the devs ran out of money, but they used the funds from the early game sales to have ALL the cgs replaced with actually decent art. It still doesn't quite match the sprites (different artist) but it's not an abomination anymore.

>>2166155
>if you plan to focus solely on social skills
For the love of grandpa Cain, do not do this. The game will expect you to turn into a one-vampire death squad, even if you're a wussy Toreador, so do put points in your fighting skills.

>tfw was a wussy Toreador
>tfw that werewolf fight
Never again.

Early in the game it's important to balance your fighting and social skills, although, like >>2166221 said, Seduction is the only stat that matters in the long run. Things like Presence or Dominate can open up some interesting dialogue options, but they aren't all that useful in general.

Dawn's scene features facesitting with the protagonist doing the facesitting which was nice for me

I've tried some of Yamiyo ni Odore -Witch Wishes to Commit the Night-. I quite liked Resonance (or at least I REALLY loved the true route of it), so I figured I'd check out their older yuri game.

The gameplay doesn't seem to be too bad at first. But then you realize, most of the game is "protect stuff from enemies". And nobody ever cared even implementing that shit right. Your own fucking summons attack the stuff you are supposed to protect. Your own attacks hurt it as well (but not your allies..). It's a disaster.
And when you think "most is optional anyway".. no. Well technically yes, but there are a few enforced battles. Good luck with that.

All of that is thrown in some of the worst gameplay flow you could think of. It's a calendar system where you have at most two actions per day. Sometimes heroines are at certain places you can trigger an event with. Mostly though there isn't really anything to do other than doing the.. "optional".. gameplay. And the heroine "events"? Aren't even events. It just repeats a short event ad infinitum. And nope, affection isn't gained either. I have no fucking clue how to get affection. I only know that the girl I was going for decided to never even appear for a good ingame-month at this point. (of 2 I played..) It's a fucking mess. Why are they even there? How the fuck do you actually GAIN affection?
Add to that a disconnected story that has a short scene every few days you probably won't care about. No flow, no anything. A few shitty villains with a shitty backstory I'd assume nobody cares about. (I don't, nor about random rape.. and I don't even fucking know, the skip-key exists..)

Holy shit. I know most yuri VNs suck. I didn't expect this to be on a level of Resonance. Which on a whole isn't even THAT good. But this? Damn.

>A woman doctor researching artificial half-demons. She has a look akin to cold observation, and is unshaken by things and a woman of plain remarks. She is the genius who was able to revive Alushe as a half-demon after her heart was pierced by demons. She offers the hotel to Alushe and company as a base, but her real intentions for supporting her are unknown. When fighting alongside Alushe as a Lily, she uses a gun to battle fiends.

It's really weird, as there are decent ideas in the game. But the controls, gui and skill-system kinda ruin it. (for starters, why can you even drag and drop a character's status and basically all gui elements during battle? It's basically real-time, that shit only happens accidentally.. )

That said, I have an idea how this works now. Thankfully you can skip battles with a clear-save. (or rather system data with that saved, which you can easily get from sagaoz) In my case I got the first choice in the game "wrong". Choosing a character's event you are going for is important, but that only works if you are actually doing the event-chain right. And for that the character needs to ALWAYS have the highest affection. That will automatically trigger events at certain key-points which will raise affection or trigger future other unique events which will then raise affection.

So if anyone plans to play this game: Either just go directly with a full-clear system-save or start on easy and hope you'll have enough fun for one clear. (you can actually add the full save at any time and you can skip battles from then on, it doesn't influence your actual normal saves, so there's no risk) Disadvantage of a full-save is obviously the less optimal skipping as everything is probably marked as "read". Most heroines seem cute enough, you just really have to.. work for some of the better parts of it I feel.

>>2166483

She's a vampire. Calling it right the hell now.

I'm guessing she's related to that geek who was also named Alucard from the first game. Green outfit, glasses, fiend researcher etc.

>>2166496
They didn't?
They introduced Hinako, Yuzuki, and Raimu first. And seems like Hinako isn't the only playable character after all. Guessing that none of the classmates get powers, though, that would probably be too much.

So, did anyone try the negligee game to see if its good or worth it? I was tempted to buy it but the creator and presence of DLCs kinda put red flags for me.

>>2166510
We knew about MC and her magical twins from before. They're obviously the main characters. I meant in terms of classmates which will be connected to gameplay.

Tits. God forbid otaku-kun get put off but the lack of hueg titties. They needed to introduce the ""sexy"" one to show that this type of girl is in the game. Nobody cares about this slut anyways. I don't care if she's straight as an arrow. We still have a lot more classmates and the main trio. The more important question is whether they're giving us twincest or not.

I have and I'd say I like it overall, the sex scenes are all great (they included a 69 and scissoring, both big favourites of mine) and they all have animated versions that you can revisit from the main menu, BUT my main complaint is actually reaching the sexy endings, referred to as epilogues, which there are supposedly 4 of, among the 11 different endings, the conditions to achieve each different ending is somewhat hard to grasp, I THINK, don't quote me on this but I think it seems to be on some kind of points system of netting each girls approval, but it's hard telling which dialogue choice are the right one for each girl and what effect they have on the the others without a shit ton of trial and error, most wind you up at the bad ending for supposedly not being able to choose one, I've yet to find the 11th ending and 4th epilogue despite combing the different combinations of dialogue choices, nothing seems to happen other then the usual bad end or hiring just one of the girls (which can lead to a specific bad end, or an epilogue, depending on how meany "right" dialogue choices you made) if anyone has managed to get epilogue 4 I'd love to know how, because those locked CG in the gallery are laughing at me and driving me fucking insane

Yep, pretty terrifying. This is what they replaced it with... although I hear rumors they may now have hired ANOTHER artist to mix in even MORE random art styles. At least it means they keep updating the game, which is a lot more than you'd expect for $3

>>2166810
No way that's the same game.

>ANOTHER artist to mix in even MORE random art styles
They'd be shooting themselves in the foot. Also, you mean your pic isn't the standard?

>>2166811
They launched the game with no CG artist so they made horrible scribbles out of bits and pieces of sprites and programmer art, leading to >>2166770

After the game launched and sold a lot of copies, they took that money and spent it hiring an artist to draw CGs, then replaced all the awful programmer art. The artist they hired is not the same as the person who did the sprite art, so it's still mismatched, but at least it's not a bleeding eyesore anymore.

Look through the screenshots if you want http://steamcommunity.com/app/429580/screenshots/#scrollTop=0 - you'll see some of the awful ones still preserved from the original launch, but if you set it to show the most recent screenshots, it'll be all the new style

>>2166502
Its great to speak to another player and get some feedback on the game. I didn't mind playing the game once but to get all girls you would need to play it multiple times and your stats fucking reset. I couldn't bear it so I got the sagaoz like you did.

Shame you didn't really get the affection either I managed to get the 3 main females without problem but couldn't figure out how to unlock the white haired teacher or the blue haired loli. I ended up watching them via sagaoz save file.

Not that anon, but Resonance's bits of game sections were WAAAYYY better than Yamiyo. Also there's no stats. And more importantly, after first time completion you can skip it all entirely.

If you're asking about route availability, getting into your preferred route is fairly easy. Just save before the partner selection choices and load as necessary. Also slight spoilers, one of the girls has her True End locked. You have to do her route twice to get that end.

I'd just like to add to this: You should still play it on easy, probably not the true route the first time and prepare for some major issues with the final boss. Even on easy that shit is not a joke. If you get hit once, you are stunned for like 5 seconds. No joke. I'd assume a clear system data would probably do the trick for skipping that (you can swap your own right back in after), but it IS quite beatable. You probably don't ever want to play the gameplay part afterwards again, which is completely fine as you can skip it, like mentioned. (aside of the arcade part, but that's actually easy on easy anyway, like everything else but the last boss..)


Resonance was quite fun, though the one other route aside of the true-route I played was painfully incomplete. I'd assume the rest of the game also suffers to varying degrees, but the true route alone is worth it in my opinion. Still the best thing I've read this year.. and I read it at the beginning of January and many things since then.

>>2167112

Doesn't have a route though. Okay, in theory she has one, but practically she doesn't. The way you access it is just pathetic and heartless. At least I could never have MC-chan do that shit and still enjoy something afterwards.

Really, the branching is probably one of the worse parts of the game. Not only do you have tons of blind choices, no, two routes more or less branch of another girl's route. I dunno how this'd affect Megu's, I can see it working alright there, though I haven't played it. But the choice you need to do for Yaya's? Well, like I said: It's just way too pathetic and heartless pulling away from Nagi like that at that point. (and acting exactly as the "enemy" wants you to as well.. in a way) A shame as I'd otherwise played Yaya's route. As it is though.. I'm not sure if it'll ever happen.

>>2167124
If I remember right, how Megumi's route starts is Kanae had fallen for Yuu and they had had sex, but had not exactly become lovers, and then Kazumi makes a move on Yuu, Yuu reciprocates (she doesn't if you've got the flags for her route) so Kanae and Megumi end together because they both lost out on Yuu.

>>2167136

That's... pretty "ouch" as well. I figured it'd be okay if it'd had been before Kanae.. "committed". Damn.
Shame Yuu's route kinda forgets most of these plotpoints and just rushed like hell through its last part. That was so unfortunate.

>>2167124
>The way you access it is just pathetic and heartless.

Do tell

>>2167107
yea, those are the ones that are alluding me too, at this point I'm considering giving up until it gets realised on steam and more discussion for it picks up, or at least until someone rips the CG, that will at least give me some semblance of a clue of what I'm supposed to be aiming for for that 4th epilogue, but I'm fairly certain that it involves agreeing to wearing the underwear out on the shop floor, since the route that doesn't generally makes getting the epilogues for the individual girls easier for some reason, so by that logic the route with the underwear being publicly worn is hiding something that can only be achieved by choosing that but so far, no combination of dialogue choices seems to be opening up anything new or getting me anything other then a bad end

Honestly everyone in the game is great. Especially the MC, who's basically only thinking about chasing tail and nothing else.

Seriously, the island she goes to is littered with mysteries, but half the routes she goes "Fuck that, I'm gonna shlick this girl, get my Happy End with her, and be done with it". She only gives a shit when the mysteries actually try to cuntblock her.

Truly the heroine fit for /u/. Also she's a magic baby born from two mothers and she gets to bang one of them in her route. What more could you ask for?

Maybe not in this thread, but it's been discussed at great length previously.

A few highlights:
it features a lot of different couples, where too many yuri games are too hung up on ONE true pairing, so there's a lot to go around for different tastes
there is sex, without going over the top into ridiculous and boring porn
the level of gayngst is considered preferable to stories that either leave it out entirely or harp too much on it
no men get in the way
most people like most of the characters
it's pretty long and has spinoffs and optional stuff to invest more time into

>>2167456
It's popular.

>>2167474
>where too many yuri games are too hung up on ONE true pairing, so there's a lot to go around for different tastes
Instead of ONE true pairing there are like a dozen one true pairings. It's like Maidens of Michael but you haven't had the benefit of separate games to get to know each couple, and you still have no agency over the story apart from what scenes you watch.

>>2167470
I think it's a nice introductory to yuri VNs. Or just nice for someone starting to get into yuri in genereal.

>>2167456
> samefagging shills

Paranoid much?

Almost none of the posts said why which VN was their favorite or they thought it was the best. Only had two more posts than Aoishiro anyway.

Not like there are that many yuri VNs to choose from, and KS is the most easily accessible and recent enough to have had hype building up to the english release. It's also just straight up "normal" yuri and nothing else, so people who would get turned off by other genres like fantasy and whatnot would presumably still like it.

Aside from the meme reply all of those are probably worth reading for anyone who would bother to read a yuri VN at all though, they are all recommendable. And quite a few of us are waiting for Flowers of course.

If you want actual reasons KS is good then I would probably just repeat >>2167474 and add that the music is lovely and/or catchy as fuck, the majority of it is well written, and the art does its style great. It also doesn't fall into the trap a lot of romance focused stuff does where no one is allowed to interact with people aside from their love interest, which is nice.

If you want negatives to balance that it is only partially voiced, there is a good chance you won't like at least one pairing/character, and I can personally remember two or three bits that I think were not so good, objectively.

>>2167484
Not having separate games to get to know them isn't really a problem since the game is still 20-30 hours long for seven couples. That's a pretty damn long time, especially if you compare it to an anime or book. From the few Sonohana games I have played they seem to be only a few hours long with a large chunk of that devoted to sex scenes so it is roughly comparable.

It's also unfortunately near impossible to give the player much agency and still have a fully fleshed out romance or story in pretty much anything, beyond dividing a game into routes which is still usually just picking your route. probably why no ano route Generally the more choice the player has, the less those choices matter.

I'd love to see a game like Kindred Spirits where you have a pool of 10-20 girls and pair them up however you choose and follow their development into a couple and what comes after, but anything with choices that wide has to sacrifice depth sadly. Way easier to just do female protag with a handful of routes (or just one route) and we don't have a whole lot of those either.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmq8MPdwBTA
You're so right it's not even funny. I almost wish I had played it without music because I sometimes find myself hearing the Fu~ Fu~ Ha-ah-oh~ just kinda in the background in my head while going about my day.

I think I like it so much because it's more emphatic than its peers, if that makes sense. Where other VNs or media in the Yuri genre feel very tentative and unsure, the soundtrack of KS sounds VERY "sure of itself." It knows exactly what it wants to be.

Ah, well, Youka's song melted my heart down to a mere puddle, also. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4h53Pfpug0

I don't think even the dialogue skills are very useful in dialogue.

my favorites get mentioned here, but there's too many caveats for me to recommend them, despite enjoying all of them a lot more.

Holy fucking shit. For some reason I was skeptical of all the reports about Ladykiller. I was thinking, "no way this game will literally force you into playing as a lesbian who has to fuck a guy, that has to be some kind of fucked up alternative route, it's all about the context! I liked Analogue and Hate Plus, so I'll get down to the bottom of this!"

Well, here I am, having bought the game yesterday and playing through it. My choices were pretty much alternating between the Beauty and the Stalker every night, amassing votes, and completing the Nerd's route while getting a good portion into the Photographer route.

Anyways...yeah the game just forces you into this fucked up situation.

Yeah. /u/ was right.

>>2167561
I don't recommend most of my favorite stuff cause I think most people won't like it

>>2167566
>problematic fantasies

>>2167566
Oh also - you cannot avoid having sex with them (unless I suppose you get 50 votes to trade with the President). You get a non-standard game over if you try to refuse to have sex with either of them. with the maid admonishing you for not doing enough and saying, "you're giving up just like that?" The game literally beats you over the head, saying that you have no choice but to fuck one of these two dudes, and if you don't, you're 'giving up'.

Those fucking content warnings are such a fucking joke since you can't avoid these scenes.

>>2167566
People keep telling me fire is hot. I better stick my hand in it just to be sure.

I, for one, appreciate anon's sacrifice

>>2167566

the creator is actually crazy

>>2167572
Me too. Anon died for our sins, RIP.

>>2167573
So, the creator also has fetish for lesbians raping men?

>>2167573
How so?

>>2167575
no, readers had a problem with the trap being "tricked" by the fact that the MC was actually a girl and not the brother. she changed that and not the creepy rape

>>2167566
I hate this but I'm already imagining a hate letter to the developer of this game when I haven't even played this game (nor will I ever).

>>2167566
>problematic fantasies

Hah. Jesus.

Well I wasn't planning on playing it before or after all the shit but I was wondering how bad it actually was. That's kind of hilarious.

Thanks for jumping into the fire you crazy fuck.

>>2167566
The wors part is this piece of shit has an army of retards backing him up.

There is an actual trans (post-op) games journalist whose opinion about this I would be interested in hearing.

>>2167585

Trans or not, "game journalists" are mostly clowns nowadays.

>>2167566
I don't understand, the game looks awful, and the gameplay is mediocre.
Why are you so fixated on it.
It's not like it was a high budget well anticipated yuri game. It's some garbage that people were getting on a whim.
Who cares if it has men fucking lesbians in it, it's shit to begin with.

>>2167591
People (myself included) liked the previous games from the developer. This is a huge disappointment.

>>2167591
I was quite anticipating it.
>Sex positive, consensual lesbian BDSM! Sign me up!
>Okay, man faces, I /guess/ I can deal with that. I've played worse.

>Wait, het rape?
>Wait, CONSENSUAL het sex?
>What the fuck is this.
>Burn it with fire.
>Salt the remains so nothing will ever grow here again

>>2167566
It's fucking deplorable. It sounds like some twisted, SJW game.

It has some good scenes in it but it's just wasted thanks to that ending garbage.

The only pure Yuri, fully BDSM themed game I know is Esclation Hardcore. I was hoping Ladykiller would be as good it is. It seems i'm wrong...

People keep saying that, but I don't really think that's it. It seems more like they were going for realistic art but they missed the mark. The shrunken faces and bulky bodies are extremely characteristic of an anime artist attempting realism without taking the time to properly study proportions and shit.

>>2167640
I mean, I'm reasonably certain I saw a tweet or comment in an interview to that effect, but I can't quite remember.

Why does /u/ still give this monster money? $30 is enough to buy a handful of indie games from honest yuri authors. The wanton use of money makes me curious to crap out a piece of crap and slap a price tag on it just to see what happens.

They're probably the same people who say it's too expensive to buy a PS4 to play Nights of Azure.

I cant see what turned her/him into such a freakish moron/SJW. Her other games were decent, what caused this to jump the shark?

I guess it was just Analogue that was good.

It's almost like the author is a transsexual still trying to accept he is a gay man with dyed pink hair.

>>2167683
Pretty sure CL claims to be a lesbian though

Don't lump her in with other trans people. Especially those of us who think the game is a colossal disappointment for being butchered in such a way.

>>2167685
I claim to be the Queen of France.

>>2167686
you're all awful and want lesbians to accept your "strapless" aka "lesbian penis"

>>2167690
the assholes who aren't even actually trans are the ones who want that.

>>2167686

Trans will never be the opposite sex, no matter how badly they disfigure themselves.
Yuri is girls loving girls, not girls loving guys who want to be girls.
Keep those delusions out of yuri and there's no problem.

>>2167696
wow. first of all that's completely true.

>>2167471
Short and cute with a nice sound track. I could play that nitizyou1_loop.ogg for hours.

For gods sake why did you people have to bring this shit up again. WE ALREADY KNOW. WE ALREADY WASTED A 900 POST THREAD BITCHING ABOUT IT. do we have to endlessly drag up things that are shit when we have much better things to talk about?

>>2167758
>we have much better things to talk about
like?

Nights of Azure 2 looks so damn good, I love the cat and wolf. And of course, Ruhenheid and Alushe look perfect together.

>>2167758
The game has barely been out for a week, you'd have to be naive to think something that can generate this amount of discussion wouldn't be brought up again while it's still fresh in everyone's minds. The only mistake was discarding the previous thread too early thinking the storm had passed, so let us not repeat it a second time.

>>2167665
Well, it is. Hardly any game is worth... however much PS4 costs now. As for >>2167663's question, while I was joking, I would pay something like ~$10 just to look at that monstrosity. It's like playing terrible games or watching terrible movies.

>>2167765
You should just pirate it.

>>2167768
I would if I could. Then again, I want to support the production of more terrible EVNs in the future.

>>2167771
I'm sure I could come up with a really shitty EVN, so donate to me?

>>2167782
If you make it, sure.

>the creator is actually crazy
No wonder, reading that scene where the lesbian is basically fucked straight to love the D and being sad that the guy didn't look at her or didn't fuck her more and the lesbian saying all the time how as a lesbian she does this and that and loves it, I was quite lost reading that scene in particular.

It's just some quite sad wishfulfilling idiocy where the trans creator of the game would wish more lesbians would turn bi or straight for his/her trans D, maybe he or she has problems with being accepted by lesbians who aren't interested in doing it with a "girl" who is before transition, who still has a penis. So in revenge the trans author makes a game where a lesbian becomes D addict just by seeing it in all its glory and being fucked by it.

It's quite pathetic on the level of your usual hetero sex doujin porn logic where lesbians turn straight for the D out of nowhere.
If you would read the whole scene in library it's just so shameful for the creator, kinda sad that from start like other publishers she or he didn't inform the buyers what they will get with buying the game, if she from start told us that the game doesn't have a lesbian MC but bi who gets conversion scene by being fucked by a guy in it I wouldn't have real complaints cause I wouldn't buy it then, but no the author intentionally hide that fact and wanted 30$ for such kind of game with nasty hetero surprise.

At least if you will check WinterWolf games they from start tell you all the the main girls are bi like in Queen of Thieves one. Publishers especially indy ones should be honest with their customers, no one ask for more.

LADYKILLER UPLOAD WHEN

>>2167989
What, isn't it more fun to blindly complain and make up theories about how the dev is trying to force us all to be straight with 'unavoidable' het rape, despite that not being the case?

Considering that the het stuff ONLY happens on the route where you whore around, there's just as much case to be made that the dev's real agenda was 'Anyone who isn't a pure lesbian devoted to one person and one person only is a total fucking slut who would probably even sleep with a man'

>>2167989

>>2167997

>>2168006
The het rape scene is not unavoidable, idiot.

>>2168010
Of course total sluts can be lesbians, and the game is fucked up no matter what the purpose of the scene is, I'm only pointing out the bizarreness of people fixating on exactly one explanation (especially people ho haven't played it.)

/u/ is known for LOVING to get some bizarre idea in their heads and keep running with it

>>2167804
PoE didn't really have any romance whatsoever, and Obsidian are kinda known for not liking romance in their games and when they've done it it's usually A: because it's a borrowed property such as KotOR or the like and they're probably obligated to include it and B: usually depressing.

Still, Tyranny seems to mostly be done by a different team than PoE so who knows.

>>2168017
Wait, so are you annoyed that /u/ is annoyed that the game makes you fuck a guy in one of the routes? I’m confused.

>>2168017
The worst part is how much money that piece of shit is making, while proper yuri games fail.

>>2168018
Speaking of RPGs, has anyone played Divinity 2 early access yet? The first one was at least /u/ friendly. Not exactly romance focused but it was a pretty damn good game.

Have you played the game?

The het stuff is only available on the poly route, true. However, both the Stalker and the Beauty seem perfectly fine with it and seem like they know what is going on, especially since the Stalker tells the player about how she's sexting with the Beauty. Furthermore, the game ends with the two of them in a poly relationship without any drama whatsover.

If the purpose of the het is to punish players for being a slut, it really doesn't make sense in the context of how the Stalker and Beauty treat the player and each other.

Also, in my playthrough, I only slept with the Stalker and Beauty.

>>2168017
>Of course total sluts can be lesbians, and the game is fucked up no matter what the purpose of the scene is, I'm only pointing out the bizarreness of people fixating on exactly one explanation (especially people ho haven't played it.)
Read that scene where the lesbians fuck the guy, explain to me why the girl calls herself a lesbian whole time during it and literally is falling fo the D of the guy hard at the end of it where she loves it.

If that's is ok with you that the author didn't bother to warn the buyers before that the game will include conversion fetish heterosexual sex scenes for the guys who want to see lesbian t urn bi/straight or do it with traps with their penises in another then you should really not write here anymroe tryint to defend such kind of perso nwho writes such thigns and then tries to sell it as girl x girl BDSM romance game to naive people.
Author coudl easily tell fro mstart what kind of sex scenes she will show in the game to warn readers like any normal publishers of such kind of games do in advance.
Paying 30$ to get a route in the game without previous warning where the lesbian is cured from her homosexuality by being fucked by a guy is not something people want to pay for.
