Buy the adult version, since it has more content. That said, I think the all-ages version did a pretty good job of remove the porn without making it seem obvious it was removed.

You get the first yuri scene at around 5 minutes into the game.

It's not surprising, since it's basically the length of 3 SonoHana games in one.

There's no Steam version, since the porn is woven into the story and the game would be really butchered without it.

A bit late, and sorry if it's been mentioned before, but if any of you Nee-san's have a VITA equipped with Henkaku you might want to check out Zettai Meikyuu Himitsu no Oyayubi-hime.

It's an otome game with, astonishingly, 2 yuri routes.

The game takes place in a world comprised of all of Hans Christian Andersen's works.
MC is Thumbelina (pic) and the 2 yuri routes are about hooking her up with either the Ice Princess Svia (pic) or the Mermaid Princess Esheru.

The reason I brought up Henkaku was because it's not worth full price if you're in it just for the yuri. Also save Svia for the second playthrough because her route is clearly the better one.

The online version of Alter Ego never got around to adding gay options, right? Someone should just mod the original game. It's an 80s text game so it can't be that hard.

>Same-sex Relationships

>We probably get this request the most out of all the others.

>There are actually two entirely separate versions of the game: one version for males, one version for females. Almost every scene makes some reference to your own gender or to the opposite sex. Just to incorporate homosexuality into the game, we'd have to rewrite the entire game, twice.

>On top of this, we'd like to add stuff like encounters with your parents, prejudiced employers, coming out of the closet, etc. Additionally, we'd have to confront the fact that you don't necessarily get to choose whether you're LGTBQ, as well as the question of how we'd handle the full range of human sexuality and gender.

>As you can see, this is no small project; we really hope we get the time to add this in some day, but it won't be any time soon. Indeed, it may come after other easier features have been added in.

So not yet.

Simulation General on /vg/ is bogus. They just like train sims and airplane sims. Anyone play The Sims 4? I haven't gotten into it yet but I am thinking of buying it within the next few years. TS is probably my favorite PC gaming series but TS4 is moving along very slowly (still no seasons expansion or even toddlers).

I remember in TS3 I always defaulted to a lesbian couple. Not in TS2 or TS1, just TS3. I'd always create a cute married couple where one was a gardener who worked as a scientist and the other a chef. I should recreate them in TS4...

Alpha. Preferably Echnia level alpha. Strong, dominant, confident, knows what she wants and isn't afraid to take it.

Someone really full of herself, but that's really sweet deep down. Someone that the silent/alpha mc can make love them just by being the compassionate/silent/alpha person they are. Possibly considers the MC as her greatest rival.

>>2183542
The ones like Kaya or Kohaku from Aoishiro.

MC: Alpha enough that she deserves it if there are multiple people interested in her. Being a badass also helps.

>>2183542
Love Interests: The quiet ones.
Writers surprisingly never go wrong this archetype.
Either they play it straight and make her adorable and loving towards the MC, or they try to shake it up and make her a surprise pervert or something, the quiet ones are always the best in an ensemble cast.

If paired up it'll be something like pic
>>
>>2183728
It's by CH, so even if there is no self-insert MC, the game still won't be committed to yuri, it will just use it incoherently for pandering.

Silent and reclusive but willing to help anybody, love interest included, out if shit hits the fan.

Generally, I don't think you see a lot of MCs willing to sacrifice everything for their loved ones. Not in some grand epic journey to save the world where you fight a big bad boss, but in a more personal way. Like wasting away on a job they don't like to support the last surviving member of the family, or being willing to do terrible stuff to keep their love interest out of harm's way, or putting their own health and life at risk to save somebody (similarly to the MC of Heavy Rain, for example).
Maybe my edgy side just wants some angst, I don't know, but it's been a while since I saw a game tell me "okay, shit's really bad, one of the main characters will certainly be hurt or die" and mean it.
>>
>>2183421
Silent and strong. Hard to approach as first due to her personality, but is fiercely loyal once she's in a relationship. Wonder if that's asking for too much (or too weird, idk)

Every archetype is great when it's done well.

- The crazy competent natural leaders
>Aida Mana (Dokidoki Precure): bubbly prince with a matyr-complex
>Kirigiri Kyouko (Danganronpa): silent, cool, smug
>Saku-hime (Sengoku no Kuroyuri): cruel, anger managerment issue
>Elsa Arendelle (Frozen): tender, sophisticated, dorky, surprisingly ambitious and athletic

- The dangerous mastermind
>Yakumo Yukari (Touhou): mischievous, play with people's feelings and lives, impossible to know her agenda
>Yagokoro Eirin (Touhou): silent planner, sadistic, love one person but fuck around for fun

- The submissive moeblob
>Hatou Kei (Akai Ito): useless, talent consists of attracting a variety of competent oneesamas to protect her and fuck her senseless.
>Remilia Scarlet (Touhou): loud, spoiled, arrogant, try to be sophisticated, yet strangely well-liked by friends and servants

For me it's all about the right combination of different characteristics, not a simple checklist of desirable traits. Note that the strength of the submissive harem leads very much depend on the composition of their harem, while the dominant harem masters are usually interesting characters on their own.
>>
>>2184212
I forgot two more types I would love to be harem leads.

One more in the natural leader category:
>Toomi Yuna (Kindred Spirits on the Roof): silent, disinterest, nurturing

One is in its own category, "loner"
>Madlax (Madlax): professional, calm soldier, empty, protective

I like many characters, but most of them are better suited for a monogamous relationship (that includes canon womanizers). Some of the ones I listed are monogamous, but I found them fit with different ladies.
>>
>>2184212
That's an insult to Kei. She keeps everyone sane (Uzuki kills herself if Kei dies), and can step up, like that time she draws Ito and defends the downed Uzuki.

Not to mention how badass she becomes in "an Oni is Born" ending.
>>
>>2184221
Yuna definitely fit with other characters as well: Aki, Ano, Nena. There really weren't romantic hints with Nena like the other 2 had, but they had surprisingly good chemistry.

There pairs where one character is good and the other is shit.
>>
>>2184245
When both characters are airheaded or morons. They just become frustrating, because they do and say dumb things and never seemingly learn anything.

Also >>2184247
>>
>>2184245
None, as long as they aren't portrayed uninteresting (bland, pointless, etc..) or stupid.
Or, simply in a series I have no interest in. But that's a given.
>>
>>2184245
Characters who're too laden down with early tropes of the genre. Overly gentle, rigid and subdued personalities. Anything S-class.
>>
>>2184245
Bland ones that lack any kind of interplay and just float around as a cute couple. They have to be fun to watch interacting with each other.
>>
I think part of the problem is that writers don't always realize what characters have the best chemistry. Nothing frustrates me more when the MC would be better off paired with just about anyone else in the cast and the relationship and story would both be better as a result. I don't think first girl always has to win, especially when better characters get introduced later in a series. First love can mean learning to let it go and move on.
>>
>>2184245
Trope checklist. Those types of personalities that look like somebody watched a bunch of mediocre yuri anime and thought "yeah, this is good, let's mash it all in this one character". Popular tropes include "being dense as a brick", "misunderstanding an overheard conversation and never bothering to clarify it" and "b-but we're both girls". I swear I saw a character somewhere who did all three of those in quick succession.
>>
>>2183967

>>2184245
Where one or both of them are one-dimensional. A.k.a. stereotypical archetype. Doesn't matter if it's a "badass with a surprising cute side" or "docile but surprisingly brave" or dumb moebob or edgelord with a dark past or bland protag. Write a fucking compelling character with actual layers.

If there's one thing I've learned from my observation of both fictions (not just anime/manga) and IRL, it's that all personalities can work with all personality. It's only a matter of knowing how to write the right chemistry between two people.
>>

>>2184570
You faggots realize that katakana names are Japanese romanization of originally western names, correct? Just because the Japanese wrote a character name as "Sharuru" doesn't mean he isn't meant to be "Charles."

Spring 2015 when the character names of Yoru no nai Kuni first appeared on Jap sites, I searched for what リュリーティス could be romanization of, and it turned out to be an Lithuanian name (there had been historical translation of that name, unrelated to this game). I forgot the writing jow, but I posted my finding on /u/ back then. Too bad the /u/ archive of that time is lost, and the game had become too popular that now I can't google that name unrelated to the game.

I assure you it wasn't Lyuritiis or anything like that, but something close to Lilysse. That's why I never fuss about westerners "westernizing Japanese names" in this case, something that you bet your ass triggers my autism as much as the next oneesama.

Arnas/Arnice is a lost cause though since they have the same romanization in Japanese. But if we assume it's yet another Lithuanian name just like Lilysse, then it should be Arnas. But Arnas is a boy's name, which I guess was why they chose Arnice in the translation.

As for the new protagonist, the nips might very well wanted something that sounds similar to Arnas/Arnice to signify their hidden relationship. If yes, it might be "Arshe." Seems to be an Islamic name.

>>

>>
>>2185311
That's what I'm asking

You create your character from the get-go and even if the default preset is Kirito, you can change your gender and stuff
>>
>>2185313
It's still Kirito, right?
It's as yuri as the season where he plays as a girl.
>>
>>2185321
Maybe I should play it and see for myself
>>
>>2185326
As I said, you play as Kirito. You just change his avatar.
If that's enough for you, even Akiba's Trip allows it. Not yuri though, since he's still a guy.
>>
>>2185329
So basically you either play as a dude, or as a crossdressing dude.
>>
>>2185329
>Akiba's Trip
That has character creation? I wasn't sure and couldn't find out from the descriptions, but I was vaguely curious about it.
>>
>>2185367
Not really. After completing the game once, you can play with some female NPC, as far as I know.
Storywise you're still the guy, though. And he's the one to appear on cutscenes.
>>
>>2185367
After you beat the game once, you unlock the ability to replace the player model with others, including most of the females. It's purely a cosmetic change, though.
>>
>>2185371
>>2185370
Oh, screw that then. Thanks for the info.
>>
>>2185321
Is it?

I don't know anything about the SAO game but if it takes place in Sword Art Online then at the start of the anime everyone's appearance was set to resemble themselves in real life, so if you had a female avatar you would be female.

They could just ignore that part of course but yeah. Unless they have segments that take place in or refer to real life the player could be anyone I would assume?
>>
>>2185386
On second season, Kirito uses a female avatar, so yeah...they don't need to resemble them at all.
>>
>>2185389
I never watched it for obvious reasons but I thought it was just a really effeminate bishounen thing rather than actually being a girl. That's just what I had picked up via osmosis while browsing anyway.
>>
>>2185389
>>2185408
I'm pretty sure the thing about it was that it was some super-special avatar thing, but the game they play in the second season (which isn't actually SAO anyway) scans the player's body to make the avatar.

So if anything he was a trap.
>>
>>2185412
That's another level of stupidity. Why game avatars even have genitals to begin with?

Well, anyway.. SAO is shitty het harem and that's all it will ever be.

How well done is the Yuriin catch canvas? Is it just a simple pronoun swap?
>>
>>2185690
It's much more extensive than pronoun-swapping. You never see the protagonist though so if that's a concern you might be let down.
>>
>>2185690
Catch Canvas seems to be a case of the opposite of what usually happens in gender-choice games. Instead of first writing the male route and adapting it for a female, it really feels like the female MC is the original/intended route, and the male was adapted from it.
The story simply makes more sense with a female MC, there's a bunch more dialog, and the female versions of the sex scenes are longer, more detailed, and more explicit.

I've completed it. It's pretty poor for even just goggleable female relationships.

Does it have BL then?
>>
>>2186001
It is naturally ripe for BL shipping thanks to the male PC leveling up his friendships (but not subtext such as with Jun in IS). And there's a couple stereotyped gay men who manhandle Ryuuji at one point.

Chances of a version with a FeMC are extremely low.

P5 was been out a bit longer, and seeing that nothing has been mentioned about it I began to suspect there was nothing /u/ in it.

I think we knew about the ChiexYukiko thing in P4 not long after it released in Japan.

>complaining there was too much yuri
>>
>>2186169
As soon as we knew there would no FeMC it was pretty much a done deal. At best we could hope for another Chie x Yukiko - which meant some subtext between girls who would never actually hook up with each other but could both hook up with the MaleMC instead. That sure isn't enough to get even remotely hyped.
>>
>>2186164
>Uh there's Ann x her friend for a short while
Anne and Shiho are at least one case where two girls act like they have a friendship during the game.

If I saw a doujinshi with the two of them on the cover, I'd very much expect it would be rape rather than yuri though.

>and some are shipping Makoto x Haru.
Even though everyone in the gang becomes friends, it's like most aren't particularly friends outside of that (or at least there's hardly anything in the game to show they are). Makoto and Haru are like that.
>>
>>2186183
On one hand that sounds promising, on the other hand if you can't find any confirmation from the yuri part of the fandom that may mean it's just your regular "no homo" freaking out at the slightest implication.
>>
>>2186202
They were already complaining about it for Sophie. On other news, the game sold like shit.
Let's hope it won't be the same for Yoru no nai Kuni 2.
>>
>>2186208
>They were already complaining about it for Sophie
Not much of an endorsement, then.

>On other news, the game sold like shit
The Atelier games have been on a downward trend since they toned down the yuri starting with Ayesha while Nights of Azure immediately reached the sale numbers of the Atelier series at its height. The conclusion seems obvious.
>>
>>2186044
It's not yuri at all, it's just a good game, if you are trying to find stuff to buy from MG specifically.
>>
>>2186224
Sophie sold really well and better than all the Dusk games actually. It had subtext too. Firis didn't have a ps3 version either and has more bugs because the maps are a lot bigger. People are probably holding off from buying it until it's patched. It could have had better first week sales but its still not a flop at all. Not sure why you're trying to dismiss Atelier.
>>
>>2186202
It sounds promising anon. It means there's most likely decent subtext and interactions.
>>
>>2186224
The game has more bugs than Shallie had. And it sold the same as Shallie.

In fact, few games would sell 40k with the kind of bugs Firis has.
>>
>>2186195
That was exactly what we were hoping for, just some subtext between the girls like Yukari/Mitsuru and Chie/Yukiko, but from the looks of it, we're not even getting that

I heard there's some light Makoto x Futaba if you squint with goggles on max power but that's about it, and it's not like it even matters seeing how the game apparently pushes Makoto as the canon love interest
>>
>>2186319
>That was exactly what we were hoping for
Realistically, anon, was this amount of yuri ever going to make a difference one way or the other?
If you were already interested in the game for yuri-unrelated reasons, did learning that there was nothing of the sort really made you less interested in a noticeable way? Disappointed, maybe, but actually less likely to buy it? And on the other side, if your interest in the game was only insofar has it had yuri, would such an inconsequential amount be enough to move that game higher than "maybe one day" on your buying list?
>>
Kinda shame that the new cRPG Tyranny won't have any romance in it, playing as evil lesbian who kidnaps and enslaves herself a harem of girls could be interesting.

Lack or romance dimnishes a bit of that whole roleplaying atmosphere in it.
>>
>>2186360
Obsidian devs are notoriously anti-romance (for a good reason).
>>
>>2186362
>Obsidian devs are notoriously anti-romance
I don't think what anon described can be called romance.
>>
>>2186362
Not the worst decision. Usually romances in games are fucking shit.
>>
>>2186360
They don't really like doing romance, and they almost certainly would not be very good at it. Not like enslaving a harem is romance anyway, which actually means what you want might happen, but with just fade to black or nothing more than implications. It depends on how evil they let you be probably, big bad with a harem is common enough that it could happen.

If you want that kind of thing your best bet would probably be NWN1/2 player made modules. It's pretty hard to do that kind of thing and have any actual depth to it though, in either gameplay or dialogue, since the only reason to want it is for smut.
>>
>>2186371
A Dance With the Rogues was pretty good for one person made module, of course it has unavoidable het rape so it's not everyone's cup of tea.
>>
>>2186349
Nah, i don't play Persona just for the yuri, but ever since two there was at least one subtext yuri ship i could enjoy, going into P5 knowing it's most likely the first "yuriless" Persona game is just a little disappointing, it's like something is missing
>>
>>2186371
I agree enslaving a bunch of girl can't be called romance, but I think what that anon meant was romantic notions, not fullblown love stories. For example the girls actually blush or display attraction for the femMC. Just a few brief and subtle moments like that and you could enhance the quality of subsequent porn scenes a thousand times.
>>
>>2186386
And it also has a lot of unavoidable het harassment, not to mention it's pretty hard to complete the game with the default template (subpar STR and CON, high DEX and CHA) and not resort to whoring yourself out, unless you roll a mage (which feels wrong for roleplay reasons) and/or savescum a lot, since seduction allows you to bypass a lot of difficult fights.
It's a great module if you want to play as a useless nobody forced to steal, sneak and bribe. I mean it, the original campaign is clearly tuned for straightforward damage dealing and there's little to no room for being creative with your approach. However, I wouldn't really recommend that module for /u/ regulars. Basically, any character with a dick at some point in the game will try to fuck you, or politely offer to fuck you, or knock you out, steal your money and then fuck you, or make a comment about fucking you, or... well, you get the idea. It fits the atmosphere of the module itself, but it's hardly something people here would find enjoyable.

>>2186371
>big bad with a harem is common enough that it could happen
I'm not sure if the modern gaming community will let something like a harem full of slaves you systematically rape slide. Maybe if it's a really minor thing that barely gets mentioned, but then I don't see the point in adding it.
>>
>>2186424
>but then I don't see the point in adding it.
Well as I understand the game premise you are a evil gal if choosen working for a tyrant where you have to put all the nations and people from them to your Master will.

Now if such setting doesn't give even a bit of sexual violence for the defeated, or spark some sex between the companions doing evil deed, and doesn't even use the emotions which come from such rank the player has in the world for her companions or subjects, it's really poorly done role-playing as the big bad where evil won.

A girl who could change the hero to change her heart, or someone who would make her go deeper and become tyrant herself, written good could be quite a treat as added romance option for the game.

It's lazy to not include that especially in such game as Tyranny where you don't need 3d cutscenes to fill the vooid, but just written dialogues and choices.
>>
>>2186474
What you're talking about is the roleplaying perspective. From which, yeah, having absolutely no mention of sexual violence towards people you hunt down and kill would be weird, although not impossible – for example, if they're considered lesser beings, dirty and abominable, and your side thinks it's better than them, it's entirely possible to write the setting in such way that committing any sexual acts with defeated enemies would be considered gross, like mating with animals.
But from /u/ perspective, an offhand mention of a harem barely makes any difference. And, as I said, I highly doubt Obsidian would go so far as to allow you, the player, to rape girls left and right, make a harem of mindbroken slaves and so on. Then again, I don't know anything about the story other than what I've read in a few promotional posts way back when, so maybe I'm wrong and they could do it.
>>
>>2186479
>>2186474
Some of the people at Obsidian are way into SJW nonsense, so I doubt they would do any of that.
>>
>>2186483
I mean, regardless of how they feel, the public in general is way into SJW nonsense, even if it's mostly a bunch of very vocal minorities spread around the internet. I doubt any of the developers/designers/coders/etc. in Obsidian would want to live with a stigma of "that guy/gal who worked on a game where you murder and rape people". Unless they elope to Japan, where it's all fine and dandy, as long as you put mosaic over it.
>>
>>2186474
I doubt Obsidian wants either the feminist backlash that would inevitably result or the kind of fanbase who just can't roleplay the scenario properly if they aren't allowed to rape NPCs.
>>
Good shit.
>>
>>2186487
Eh, to be fair, it's kinda like unkillable children in some Bethesda games or GTA. You don't have to kill them, nor is it particularly fun, but putting this artificial barrier down is silly when you can murder the whole population of a town with a couple of spells and feels kinda preachy.
Raping NPCs isn't quite the same, as, well, raping in general isn't a default action that you can perform, unlike killing NPCs, but having no mention of rape in general in a war setting would ruin my immersion a little, unless they do what I mentioned before and write it so raping your enemies is considered disgusting because you're not supposed to fuck the dirt beneath your feet. Without that, it's another silly artificial barrier. You can maim, torture and kill people all you want, but God forbid you stick your fingers in their holes against their will.

It's usually because it's legally required in some countries and easier to just ban it all around.

>>2186551
It's okay, I think. It's been discussed a few times. I tend to remember complaints more than praises (not that there were more, just that complaints stick in my head more) which are that there are no choices, some people think the protagonist isn't femme enough, some complain that they wanted to date the girl who isn't the love option, some felt that the plot/drama was a little forced, and some people whined about a thing that happened in one of the h-scenes. But these are all pretty minor complaints, not like the shitstorms we've had around a few games. If the premise and art sound appealing to you, you'll probably get enough out of it.

You could kill children in the original Deus Ex and in Fallout 1 (not sure about 2; I've heard that you can kill children in the US edition, but my EU version came with no kid NPCs in the whole game). Bioshock had Little Sisters you could harvest. Baldur's Gate had generic nameless kid NPCs in towns you could kill. Various horror games have child monsters (like child zombies, for example). None of those is rated AO in the US, to my knowledge.
>>
So what game on Steam has the gayest profile backgrounds these days?
>>
>>2186574
I'm about to.

You can kill children in Fallout 2, in both US and EU versions actually since all they did was make children invisible in EU version. That's how I got Child Killer perk in my first playthrough.

>>

That's better than a third of the stuff in 'Recent Releases' and 90% in the general thread if actually true, so clearly qualifies for /u/.

>>2186615
>>2186617
About five hours in, I guess i'll list what i've found.

>Main female character is bisexual, Emily Kaldwin. Her love was made to be genderless, by the devs so people can deciede there gender. She also has a really tragic scene with her guard captain.
>Two of the big villians, including the Big Bad herself, Delilah, are lesbians, and lovers. Both Witches. If you kill her, Deliliah threatens to tear you apart and murder you horribly in a fit of rage and despair.
>Another main character is a bisexual girl, "mostly into other women", the captain of your ship, and ex assassin, Billie. (Her design is super cool, she's missing an eye and an arm.) The love of her life was her best friend, whom was murdered by a drunk nobleman, who she murdered by stabbing him in the eye in rage.
>>
>>2186622
Is Emily's love her guard captain?
>>
>>2186632
Nothing concrete, but they seem really, really close. One of the devs, Harvey Smith, confirmed in a Reddit interviews she's had trysts with plenty of people, but her heart belongs to her lover, Wyman (The genderless person)
>>
spoiler that stuff. some of us haven't played it
>>
>>2186622
Inb4 Emily's love identifies as genderless.
>>
>>2186635
So what? She sleeps around while having a lover? If so that sucks.
>>
>>2186650
Anything wrong with the Empress sleeping with dozens of servant girls to warm her bed at night?
>>
>>2186650
It could be before she met Wyman. However, just give it time and things will become revealed.
>>
>>2186654
If that's for you, then no. I myself am partial to monogamous relationships.
>>
>>2186622
Is Emily silent like Corvo from the first game or are they both fully voiced?
>>
>>2186671
Serial Monogamy
>>
>>2186673
That definition is used for when the person is only with one person for a time before they jump to the next one and they break up, not for cheating. Unless of course they're in an open relationship, but again, prefer A monogamous relationship.
>>
>>2186677
Anon, you ever think we're literally hearing half the story and you're jumping to conclusions. Why not go find some gameplay videos tomorrow that explain it better.
>>
>>2186679
I'm jumping to one possible conclusion. I didn't state outright that she sleeps around. Said 'if so that sucks'. But yeah. I like my yuri to be only between two girls and not for one of them to be sleeping around and possibly cheating on the other, so I'm a little paranoid. Sorry. I'll shut up now.
>>
>>2186672
Emily is full voiced, as is Corvo if you choose to play as him.

I like how explicitly gay official Senran art can get.
>>
>>2186866

Wait, so Senran Kagura is /u/ friendly? I thought it might be hated in here since the yuri serves only as fanservice.
>>
>>2186884
Nope, there even were some threads though I'm pretty sure most everyone that went in the thread didn't try to dress it up to be anything else.
>>
>>2186885

Thats good to hear. I mean, i like Senran Kagura since its earnest about what its trying to be. I'm surprised to see /u/ not hating on it, since i heard some pretty harsh criticism in other threads over at /a/ during the time the anime was on.
>>
>>2186889
Think of it like this. Instead of people being waifufags, /u/ was pairing them. I wouldn't put it past some autistic anons on /a/ to think everyone here is a purist when they're a vocal minority usually.
>>
>>2186866
One girl putting her "squirt gun" between another girl's breasts while she ahegaos seems more /d/ to me. Just saiyan.
>>
>>2186884
I mean it is really "male gaze"-y or whatever but it is extremely yuri and also is actual games.

I don't think I have seen anyone hate it in general, though if something has its own threads it tends to only be discussed there. Think I saw one person who had a bone to pick about a game or two with male characters in it but not sure, I remember the one I played had a pervy old man with no sprite who was important to the story but that's like 1% of the game and the other 99% is over the top yuri and/or ecchi fanservice.

I only played Shinovi Versus but it was also an actually decent game in my opinion. Yozakura is probably the most fun and satisfying character I have played in a musou-like game. Only things that really bothered me was the difficulty scaling being way too easy and how I wanted to dress my characters up in actual outfits and most of them were way too fanservice-y or slutty for my taste, but the Way of the Samurai-like accessory customization made up for that in my opinion.
>>
>>2186884
It's appreciated in the same way that most media with a large cast of female characters and virtually no interference from males is appreciated. It also doesn't hurt that some of the characters seem resolutely gay.
>>2186900
Do strapons seem /d/ to you too?
>>
>>2186863
No, Wyman never appears. Only mentioned by Emily and in letters

Yes Billie was Daud's second in command. Delialh actually seduced her.
>>
>>2186902
I just know that New Wave cranked up the waifu pandering to 11 not too long ago. Before that there was some pretty yuri-friendly events even for a mobile CCG. Like the event where one girl nurses another (see >>2186903) if that had been done today it would probably be for the self-insert
>>
>>2186889
/u/ doesn't hate it because it isn't pretentious. Its fanservice is very straightforward, never trying to use pathetic excuse to glorify anything, while at the same time has genuine romantic feelings between girls. The romance is so sincere that it blow away lots of other bland all-girls anime where everything is so painfully platonic despite the girls are so close and friendly with each other.

I'd say it's the same as Valkyrie Drive anime, another /u/'s beloved. Trashy fanservice, check. Blatant about it, check. Genuine romantic feelings, check.

Ha, I was actually thinking that it was pretty strange how the times they did mention Wyman they never revealed the gender.

I only now read that Wyman, in one of the books, is mentioned as "he" once, but that was a typo and the author already said so and Wyman really is meant to be genderless so that Emily can be whatever sexuality we want.

Honestly beats me. Maybe they were tired of people asking about a canon sexuality for Emily but also didn't want her to be without someone to love in her life and just said "fuck it, just never mention the gender and leave the rest to the fans. maybe that'll keep the amount of bitching to a minimum"
I think the story writer actually told people on reddit to headcanon as much as they want.

I read on their AMA that their new game tyranny that it doesn't have romance. I played Pillars and it doesn't have it.

It seems that Obs now avoid romance like a plague. Their reason being: it's hard to write.
>>
>>2187553
>>2187556

Or at least hard to write well in a way other than "pick right responses, receive sex" kind of way.

Doesn't change the fact that in Tyranny Eb flirts with everyone (mostly to get a rise of out of them), that you can express interest in Verse (which doesn't go anywhere) and, of course, that you can visit brothels and hire female prostitutes. As usual.
>>
>>2187472
Maybe. All it tells me is that the creators seems to rather view Emily as bi.
>>
>>2187556
>>2187563
Tsk.
Well maybe Torment won't dissapoint. That looks like the much better games anyway.
>>
>>2187441
With this whole "there's no canon appearance and gender" I wouldn't be surprised if they do a Bioware for Dishonored 3, where you'll play as Wyman and can customize everything.
>>
>>2187566
That really depends on what you're looking for. All in all I would say that if you add up everything /u/-related in Pillars of Eternity and its expansions it can easily matches what New Vegas had to offer - which was not exactly a high bar. And if I remember the Torment devs' latest statements on the subject right, I wouldn't get my hopes up for it delivering much more on the yuri front either.
>>
>>2187579
I've never thought WRPGs are something that need explicit romance routes, but having the option to express your character's sexuality as part of roleplaying is cool. Being able to play a female character and flirt with women, even if those women immediately turn you down can be fun. Even having a male character flirt with you and being able to immediately shut him down by telling him you're a dyke. It's the kind of thing that I think can add interesting branches and character interaction without necessarily having "press X to fall in love".
>>
>>2187580
WRPGs have a hard enough time to get proper character and story writing in the first place. If customers were showing interest in more quality stuff, quality romance MIGHT happen. Otherwise, I'm not really sad that it happens very rarely. Because it's mostly bad(ly implemented).

The retail price is much too high, yes, but the game experience itself was enjoyable. It does a good job of building atmosphere and mystery,
I picked it up years ago in a Steam sale for $5, and didn't regret the purchase at all. Maybe it helped that I grew up in the '90s, as it had a major nostalgia factor.

How is the existence of lesbians an SJW scam?

Not very. Any scenes of that nature are gag scenes (such as one where Firis walks in on Sophie adjusting Plachta's body like she has to because Plachta is a doll, and it sounds lewd from behind a door so she starts imagining things before clearing it up.

I finished the Liane and Ilmeria routes today - really there's no Ilmeria /u/, they're just friends. Maybe in the future, it did take Mimi until Atelier Rorona to really take it up a notch. Really she's much gayer with Liane, her (major spoiler) non-blood-related sister, although it's still mostly treated as just sisterly love regardless of Liane's constant obsessing over how cute Firis is

I haven't finished Sophie/Plachta ending yet or the others, will report back if any have /u/ content, but I doubt it..
>>
>>2187781
>it did take Mimi until Atelier Rorona

I meant Atelier Meruru, of course
>>
>>2187781
If Totori was the most successful Atelier, why are all the subsequent games (minus Meruru) have significantly less yuri? Did the nips complain online and made Gust worry or something? But then that wouldn't explain why they make the NoA series.

I don't understand.
>>
>>2187864

It's always possible someone had to fight to get NoA made the way it is.

>Did the nips complain online and made Gust worry or something?
That's actually exactly what they did.
>>
>>2187907
Homophobic nips complain about subtext yuri in anime/games all the time. I just want to know if it's particularly bad with Totori or not for Gust to take caution. If yes, why did they make Meruru?
>>
>>2187913
Meruru was one of the most successful Atelier title in Japan, both critically and commercially. It still holds the series' first week sales record, for example, which would suggest that there was little to no backlash toward Totori.
>>
Shadows of Pygmalion has entered beta testing. Looks like it'll be an early 2017 release.
>>
>>2187945
But rumors about rumors say otherwise, so you're wrong!

Seriously though, the best selling titles in the series had the most yuri. The decision to have less yuri was probably nothing more than "this one will be like this...". Did all the games even have the same writers and directors?

I don't know why everything has to be a conspiracy.
>>
>>2187984
>I don't know why everything has to be a conspiracy.
Because /u/ can't take it if the writers/directors/whatever decided to go that direction instead of them being pressured into making not as /u/ friendly games.
>>
>>2187984
>>2187989
I think the conspirators here are you two, with the textbook victimization attitude.

There was curiosity. Wondering if the sudden lack of yuri was linked to a possible backlash is a natural first thought, because it happened to a lot of things (anime refusing to go full yuri, yuri magazines getting canceled). I didn't jump to any conclusion and was simply asking a question. So what's up with your inability to provide information without accussing people?

I don't really see how the scene you mentioned with Sophie and Plachta is a bad thing. If anything it sounds more like a nod to the pairing but I guess people take things differently. Nobody expects romantic confessions and kisses in Atelier by the way. For example, the ending scene with Sophie and Plachta from the first game was definitely yuri to me. I'll be good as long as there's more cute interactions between the two and as long as nothing actively kills the pairing (like them talking about wanting boyfriends/husbands or something like that).

Also can you fill me in on the loli in this game? Any cute interactions between two of them? I know loli Escha is childhood friends with Mea. The other one is Kirsche but I'm pretty sure she's from the snowy village so I was assuming she doesn't ever even meet the other two.

Has anyone brought Rimworld to /u/'s attention? It's a Dwarf Fortress style sim-strategy-builder with procedural generation, and in one of the recent patches they put in a starting scenario editor. I forced gayness onto everyone on my world, and randomly generated up some initial lesbians. I haven't started yet, but this will be sweet because they'll pair up based on who off meets up and talks procedurally, and then will want to sleep in the same bed, get bonuses for it, and then have strong negative reactions if their partner dies. There's a marriage system and I'd assume that they can get gay married too. You can even start as a primitive tribe, instead of a sci-fi crew, to Earth Girls it up.
>>
>>2188439
I played Rimworld with an all-girls gay starting setup, and it's nice enough but the yuri/romance elements are naturally pretty small in the overall scope of the game. Maybe it's been expanded on since I played, though. Gay marriage is definitely a thing in the game either way.

Played it a lot with my custom yuri colony. Keep in mind that "dislikes men" does not equal to lesbian. They most likely won't hook up with a girl without the gay trait. There's a mod called EdB Prepare Carefully where you can hand-tailor your colonists and make your yuritopia.

It didn't have much porn to be honest. It had 3 sex scenes total. In addition to that, there were 2 CG that were in the all ages version that were more lewd in the adult version.
>>
>>2188535
From what I remember, character interactions are very primitive right now. To the point where having a gay female in a colony with several men is detrimental and you'll have easier time just putting her down, since otherwise all your male colonists who find her attractive will constantly get mood penalties trying to ask her out.
So I'm not sure whether it's SJW bullshit, fetish fuel or just lazy coding.

Winged Cloud patron here. Don't want to jump the gun, but Sakura Magical Beach might be the next game they do like Dungeon.

They've talked about hiring a pixel artist to work on sprites so it maybe be a legit traditional RPG.

>>
>>2187913
I think it has most to do with Gust trying to get a new public to expand their fanbase. Dusk series has a lot of things trying to make the games more appealing to general public, like taking off the time limit and making het ships and male protagonist.

It's a stupid idea and they went back to the old format...kinda. Dusk series sold well less than Arland.

Then Sophie actually sold more than last games in the Dusk series, and I think that if Firis didn't have so much bugs, it would do the same. It sold pretty much the same as Shallie, what says that Gust has some faithful fanbase that would even buy bugged games.

Above all that, Nights of Azure sold better than all Dusk games and Sophie. It would be stupid to think that yuri is killing their series after that. I think they're still trying to make Atelier appealing to general public while pushing their yuri subtext to Nights of Azure, though. Maybe if NoA2 is more succesfull than Firis again, they might try to change their tactics. But anyway, Gust needs more successful IPs, so they stop rushing bugged Atelier games.

>>2188313
The writers are different, but we don't have informations about that. Might be easier if you know english. I do remember they making a point that Shallie had the same writer from Totori, at least.

I noticed Gust cancelled a game some years ago, Chronos Materia, something about time travelling to prevent a forest fire. It was originally meant to be a new IP and if they wanted to recycle some ideas, they might make it like a low-key Life is Strange or something where the choices have consequences on relationships in order to improve replayability. If Gust plays their cards right, they'll reel in the rabid waifu fanbase and revive themselves like the Fire Emblem franchise.

As far as I know there hasn't been any sign of boys at all in any of the material we have seen so far so I don't know why you would leap to that immediately.

I have never seen the word "friends" being used this much in a confined space.

But it is only there three times? Four if you count 'befriended'.

You must be new here. Welcome to /u/. We hope you enjoy your stay.

/u/ is so paranoid that this might happen that we tend to see stuff like this in everything unless proven wrong beyond the shadow of a doubt. sometimes even when 2 girls are scissoring they'll still say it's not yuri It sucks, yes. Lots of us wish we could do something about it, but unfortunately, there will always be paranoid Onee-samas who will repeat this mantra in one form or another.

>but we don't have informations about that
All the relevant information is in the games' respective credits, and while the people credited under scenario change from one game to the other there doesn't seem to be any discernible pattern matching specific names to amount of yuri. For instance the scenarist for Rorona and Totori isn't listed on Meruru at all, or the first name listed on Meruru was the only listed scenarist on Ayesha, or the scenario director for Shallie and Sophie is the same, etc... The Atelier series director is even credited under scenario in games as varied as Meruru and Escha & Logy.

While some do take that paranoia too far, it is unfortunately not unfounded.
The example that stands out in my mind is the Neptunia Noire game. All the early promotional stuff featured things like the girls kissing to power up, but about a week before release it was revealed there would be a faceless male protagonist.

So while it's never as bad a situation as the scaremongers would lead you to believe, it actually does happen sometimes.

It's a "heroic RPG"

It may be an action RPG but that's not the impression I get from its site.

Definitely resembles modern Persona, but with a magical girl theme.

One of the first classmate characters given a profile was Shihori, who is apparently characterized by being sexy. So she gets a lot of male attention and hangs out with boys individually, although to her they're all equal friends. This triggered some posters in a previous thread.

I'm ok with this game.

>>2189296
I haven't gotten to this part yet, but holy shit was the character creation involved. It took me 90 minutes make my character.
>>
>>2189296
Which game is that?
>>
>>2189338
Tyranny.

>>2189338
Obsidian's new game, Tyranny.

Do you have to create whole party or you only create MC and the rest joins you as NPCs?
>>
>>2189349
The latter.
>>
>>2189349
>>2189350
Also should mention, you kinda create a whole backstory for your character which I haven't seen before in CRPG's (at least in this magnitude).

As possibly the only other reg/u/lar that agrees with you about it being yuri, it's still no good to me, I can't read moon

That reminds me of Nanoha: Is is Arf or Alph? And there is Einhard, Einhart, Eihardt or even Einhalt. And: Linith, Rinis, Lynis, etc.

Some companies and franchises care about consistent romanization of names. Nanoha is not one of them.

How did you know it's yuri then?

I'm one of those who never think futa is yuri, but yeah I have to say this series is yuri.
