Yuri Game Thread

Recent News:

Fate/EXTELLA now out on Steam
Kotonoha Amrilato set to release in Japanese in August

The day will come when I stop feeling seething rage at Lottie's route not being romantic. This is not that day.

What is your all time favorite /u/ (full /u/, not subtext) game? Sakura Dungeon made me feel like a recluse while playing it but damn if it isn't the best time I'll have with /u/ games.

>>2388722
Sakura Dungeon was okay but I don't think it lived up to its potential.
I would have rather had a smaller cast of potential party members who you'd need to swap out depending on the enemies you were facing. The way it was you were capturing monstergirls and replacing them as soon as you reached a new floor.

>>2388722
Hajimari no Ishi. I learned Japanese just to play that damn game when it became clear it was never getting localized. I think I've cleared it about 15 times and I always pick the same girl.

Probably the only non-meme review of S. Dungeon said it was downgrade from DMC, so I haven't bothered with it.

>>2388731
Quite the opposite, actually.
Also DMC had some /d/ stuff snuck in, while Dungeon has none

>>2388737
I was speaking about the gameplay mechanics, not the fluff.

>>2388729
True, but I really just put all my points into Ceri either way until she became a one girl army.
>>2388731
I haven't played DMC but I've heard it was super grindy, more so than SD. It also seems a lot, lot smaller than SD in terms of content.

>>2388730
This sounds interesting. How are the romance options in this, and how do they work?

>>2388744
If there was more strategy in the combat I probably would have done more than just set it to auto + turbo speed and walk around the floor until I was high enough level to curbstomp the boss

>>2388701
Neither Bastion nor Transistor had any gay in it (unless you count that one little bit with Sybil), so I wouldn't bet too much on Pyre. Although I will let you know if I find anything.

Can some nip speaking onee-sama tell me if this cellphone game is yuri or not, it's a 2d beat em up, I don't understand shit and it has that typical give gifts stuff, but there's the strange part, you can only give a gift if you choose one of the girls to gift each other, and the only relationship level they seem to have is with themselves, the name of the game is 異世界からのノノ, the girls also do cute stuff with each other, I wanna know if there's a player character and how relevant he/she is

>>2388722
I never finished it because the gameplay was excruciating to me. The rest was cute enough, but too many girls meant there wasn't much development for even the main ones, and honestly I didn't find any of the smut scenes really hot at all - generally really short too - so there was not enough to keep me going.

>>2388722
Dunno if Embric classifies as full /u/ but I had a really fun time discovering all the stuff

>>2388838
I started playing it, and so far it seems as through Nono is the protagonist and there is no self-insert. You enter your name, but it seems as though that's just your username. None of the characters have addressed me directly

Really nice sprites, surprised it's an iOS game. Running it on Bluestacks because it would probably laugh at my old tablet

>>2388865
I think Embric counts as /u/, despite maybe offending the delicate sensibilities of a select few here, and it's certainly my favorite title. Being a massive nerd myself, the references were delightful, and getting silly bits of dialogue from checking random things on the map is great.

>>2388722
Aoi Shiro, but I enjoyed the music and the atmosphere of the game more than the yuri itself.

>>2388706
What's /u/ thoughts on the Atelier series? I never played them since there's so many entries already but I can snag Atelier Firis for $20 so I'm wondering if it's worth my time.

>>2388923
He said full /u/, not subtext.

375KB, 1920x1080px

>>2388925
I love them. Arland is actually /u/ relevant, but recent series is pretty goggleable, the girls are cute and the gameplay is actually pretty good. But start with Sophie, since Firis is a sequel from it and there's a lot of references. Also, Sophie is easier to novices because there's not time limit at all.

The open world of Firis is also something some people disliked.
Both are good, but I wouldn't play Firis before Sophie.

My game is a zelda clone now. Fixed the sprite size and added strafing feature. Since there isn't much to do now regarding the core mechanics, what /u/ related gimmick should I add? Straightforward dating sim, or puzzle based dating progression like in Lord of Embric. No idea which one is simpler on GM.

>>2388865
Embric was a collaborative work between /u/ and /tg/.

>>2388938
I don't know a thing about GMS but I've played around with RPGMaker and I believe the way Embric was designed worked best because triggers and switches are easy to work with in RPGMaker

>>2388865
I tried to get into it but I heard that Alice wasn't romanceable and stopped (though that was added in later). Also I was a little bummed by the lack of lewd but that's totally on me.

>>2388945
I can make triggers out of arrays and other variables and stuff, but I'm just curious which one takes less effort.

>>2388956
No, that's a bs. Alice is actually embric.

>>2388956
You really should do all the routes in Embric anyway. The whole story won't be pieced together otherwise.

>>2388927
Different person but is there anything I should know if I want to start with Rorona Plus?

>>2388967
>spoiler
You didn't finish the true end.

>>2388730
Looks like there's a translation patch coming along, though they're not very clear on what's the progress so far:

http://gbatemp.net/threads/summon-night-swordcraft-story-beginnings-stone.389972/

Anyway, what's the /u/ like in this?
And while we're at it, what's it like in the one Swordcraft Story game that was localized?

In fact, what's the /u/ amount in the Summon Nights series in general, beside SN5 which went full retard on most routes, and SN6 which apparently has none?

>>2388838
I've been looking for some mobage yuri friendly, so thanks for that. Pretty fun game so far, and yeah, there's no male self insert.

>>2388915
I'm using bluestacks because I want to actually understand the story, and my kanji is limited, so kanji tomo helps me. A shame it isn't full voiced, but I know it's hard for games to do that.

>>2389009
First, it's mostly het. You probably know already, but who knows. Still recomended to start with it. Lionela's route can be pretty gay, though.

The rest should be about Atelier games in general.
If you want to get the true ending on one playthrough, have a FAQ close. I don't mean to play following one, that's not fun. But if you feel you haven't progressed from some time, do look at how to unlock the next event you want. Don't ever sleep, it's a waste of time.

If you never played any Atelier games, do take a time to actually learn the alchemy. Itens are the most important part of every Atelier game, more than levels, but the games don't do a very good job at explaining it. Understand about traits and effects and what they change in the itens, as the first time playing the series, I just got it on the end of my first playthrough.

Also, keep in mind that Rorona Plus came after Totori and Meruru, so it's more polished. So don't think it's weird when you go to Totori and things look more hard than it should. Getting true ending in that game is a nightmare. But it's worth it. I mean, playing it, the true ending isn't really worth it on Totori.

>>2389035
I'm fairly sure there's a total of three Swordcraft Story games, and the one you linked was the third. The first two have been localised.

While I can't speak for the second one, the first game has multiple goggle-able endings and a good deal of subtext, especially between the main character and Sugar. It's been discussed on this board before but it may have been so long ago that the archives didn't record any of it.

If the "Are you a boy or a girl" choice bothers you for whatever reason, I'll try and make you feel better by saying that I vaguely remember reading many years ago that one of the directors only intended Pratty to be playable but was forced to change things by the company who felt that "female protagonists don't sell". The result was a compromise.

>>2388722
>subtext /u/ games
What are those? The only one I know of is Aoishiro. Akaiito is text since in Uzuki route, Kei quite straightforwardly admited wanting to have sex with her.

My Four Heavenly Kings of /u/ games: Sengoku no Kuroyuri (fight me), FLOWERS, Kindred Spirits, Embric of Wulfhammer Castle.

Runner ups: Atlach-Nacha, Akaiito, Katahane, Sonohana Michael no Otome (Miya x Risa debut), Tokyo Necro.

>Sengoku no Kuroyuri
Are we going to get a decent ending out of this, or just more depression?

>>2389191
The first two chapters both ended on a high note (childhood friend then tsundere all fell in love with her), so I doubt the third part will be tragedy. My prediction is that Saku will find then help her brother go back, fail to find a cure for her condition, and decide to live a recluse life with her harem.

That's not my ideal ending, just the most realistic expectation. A couple months ago I sent the author a tweet whining that if it were me, I'd have made Nobunaga found dead, then Saku would return home under his disguise to keep the country in peace, effectively replacing him as head of the clan and have a bunch of children with her harem including Nou-hime. Nothing like stealing your brother's position and wife to revenge for all the sexist bullshit you've suffered.

I don't like the fact that there'll be another futa. Hopefully Saku won't touch her.

>>2389123
That doesn't look like a boy at all.

>>2389212
Isn't it out? I see something that has the same name as the third part on sukebei pantsu.

Never knew there was another thread linking to the Bandori thread until today. Have a bump.

>>2389093
Aoishiro aint subtext, because of Yasumi's and Kohaku routes.

Toyko Necro and Atlach-Nacha, while great games, shouldn't be classfied as Yuri. They have a mix of het and Yuri (Nacha's main focus is a lesbian relationshiop though.

>>2389135
Most het is guys who are in love with Rorona, but she doesn't reciprocate most of them. The one she actually seems to have some kind of interest becomes a joke in the next games. Poor Sterk.

It's not as het as Dusk, but still more het than the rest of Arland and Mysterious.

>>2389265
I loved that series of kiss photos. Why are they all so gay?

>>2389302
g4p

>>2389123
She's kind weird.
By the way, looking at the Twitter, it's not the same guy, but the same studio. Also, it seems like they're doing two games. Since their Twitter says they're doing Yuri games, the other one should be yuri, too. I hope, the art is good.

I'm happy that someone else on west is trying to do a yuri game that doesn't feel like cheap porn, so I'll support them. Even more because not being cheap porn, they probably won't sell much

>>2389303
don't say sad things

This talk of Atelier reminded me, how are the PS3 ones? A friend of mine who owns all of them is selling off bunch of his old games and I'm wondering if any of them are worth putting my rather limited funds towards.

>>2389307
There's six games on ps3, three Arland series and three Dusk series. Arland series are worth for a lot of reasons, beside being pretty /u/. Dusk series...only played Ayesha. Gameplay is fine, but game itself is kinda meh. Also, pretty bad for /u/. Escha is full het. Shallie looks better, though.

I wouldn't recommend anyone to start with Dusk, but you should play Arland (Rorona, Totori and Meruru).

>>2388838
>>2388915
Saw this mentioned in /mbgg/ but lose interest after I saw some screenshot of the girl receiving gifts.
Time to rerrol I guess.

>>2389307
From what I know the Vita versions are superior, Rorona in particular. If he's selling them cheap I don't think the original versions are so poor they're not worth playing though.

>>2389304
Why do you use so many needless commas? It make the sentences choppy and irritating to read.

>>2389318
Maybe they speak like William Shatner irl

>>2389307
There's a decent PS3 emulator that is starting to get good. Okami HD is very playable, so if you want to wait you can play them on your PC if it's decent.

https://rpcs3.net/compatibility Looks like they are in the 'playable' so you can even try them out now.

>>2389315
Vita version are the same as the ps3, except they have the DLCs included.
Except for Rorona Plus, that's exactly the same.

Shallie does have an extra ending that's not on the ps3 version, but I think it's the only one.

>>2389318
how dare someone attempt to grammar in our shitposting box

>>2389305
The sad thing is you're masterbating to a couple of g4p sluts instead of looking for a real gf.

>>2389305
That's not sad, though. They're interpreting the characters. So the characters are gay, not them.
That's good enough.

>>2389309
>>2389315
>>2389321
Thanks. I suppose I'll give the Arland series a shot through the emulator and maybe drop some money on a cheap physical copy just to help a friend out if they turn out to be decent enough.

>>2389327
It's not proper grammar, you fucking retard. Overusing commas like that will earn you an F in language class, because those sentences are clumsy as fuck. And that's not to mention
>She's kind weird.
>I hope, the art is good.
>someone on west

>>2389347
Okay then.
>how dare someone who has English as their non-native language make mistakes while writing on a Georgian battle drumming forum

>>2389347

i said 'attempt to' not 'use proper grammar'. And honestly, if I were writing what she said, in the speech style that she was apparently intending, I would likely have about as many commas.

Less if I were trying to get across the "I am typing rapidly" style of a typical net poster.

There's only one of those commas that looks really gratuitous to me. Maybe we're reading the intent differently. To me, it looks like:

>By the way, looking at the Twitter, it seems like it's not the same guy, just the same studio. Also, it seems like they're doing two games. Since their Twitter says they're doing Yuri games, the other one should be yuri too. I hope I'm correct, because the art is good.
>I'm happy that someone else in western game development is trying to do a yuri game that doesn't feel like cheap porn, so I'll support them.

(in which I have stripped one comma out and left the rest because they appear syntactically correct to me)

now, please don your hottest english teacher persona and cane me.

>>2389364
>please don your hottest english teacher persona and cane me
That's a fetish I can get behind. Or under.

>>2389367
New Horizons teacher please stay.

>>2389364
I would just ignore the whole grammar drama, but I have to say that as someone still trying to get better with english, I appreciate this post. Even if with another intention. I like to see where I'm doing wrong.

Just to clarify that "kind" was supposed to be "kinda", "I hope" was supposed to be "I hope so". And yeah, "on" and "in" are still confusing to me. I also have the bad habit of posting as soon as I type and I'm on the smartphone. But yeah, sorry to offend /u/'s high intellect. Next time I'll try at least to be as good as Mugino.

>>2389364
I'm not the person you're talking to, but the first sentence is still a run on. I wouldn't call it comma splicing per se as they're all dependent clauses, but it'd sound better if you restructured it with a hyphen or parentheses.
>By the way, looking at the(ir) Twitter, it seems like it's not the same guy- just the same studio.
>By the way, looking at the(ir) Twitter it seems like it's not the same guy (just the same studio).
It's a pretty average length for a sentence but the amount of commas turn it into a run on when you're speaking normally. I think you'll find that they flow more naturally.
>now, please don your hottest english teacher persona and cane me.

People are arguing over grammar and here I am staring dumbly at this.

>>2389450
We just want the English teacher onee-san to punish us.
It is still cheating. Kinda salty that this, of all things, was one of the few fem-specific lines

>>2389450
How's the Umu yuri in this game anyway? The few times people ask about it it seems like the responses mostly focus on Caster, but I'm more interested in bathing with my empress.

>>2389457
I'm just 2-3 hours in and Nero is very affectionate and if you choose to be more forward she blushes into oblivion. So, don't know about bathing yet.

You do sleep on her lap though at one point.

>>2389457
The dialogue is tender as fuck with the MC constantly going on monologues about how beautiful Nero is and how she's the most important person in the world to her.

Ending to the first part of the story is a kick and pants though.

>>2389460
>>2389461
That sounds pretty good, thanks. I'll probably pick the game up later when it comes down in price a bit and I have more time to play it.

>>2389461
Yeah, it's basically a huge fanservice game with suggestive dialogue.

>>2389461
Well, I think one of the criticisms I've read about this is how much Nero is made to be the greatest of all time and how every line is dripping with sappiness.

And also Tamamo's story can't even be accessed without finishing Nero's. I'd get it if Altera's had to be unlocked, but apparently Tamamo fans weren't happy.

>>2389467
Isn't Altera's the third 'route' you unlock? After you beat Tamamo's story that is.

>>2389467
>every line is dripping with sappiness
>Nero is the greatest
How exactly is this a problem?

How good is the yuri in Black Closet?
Because I came expecting some annoying but not so intrusive "gameplay" like in Lily Princess, but it is all over my face and I frickin hate it.
I want to know if at least the yuri is worth the struggling or not.

>>2388838
Just bringing this back because I got to the part where they exchange presents and such. While the presents part is between them, the cooking part is supposedly with the player (?). I mean, there's not player character at all, but they're talking to someone who's not the other girl. Maybe their captain? You're giving them food made by them, to begin with. This part is weird.

Still, the game does seem to be about yuri shipping more than anything. Sometimes the girls talk when you click on them in their room. Ruri seems to be tsundere towards Nono. Nono on the other side says: "Something that makes my heart beat? Ruri-chan, maybe...? Or food made by Ruri-chan!"

To someone used to these mobages, is there a problem in using that transfer data a lot? I wanted to keep playing on bluestacks and on my phone sometimes, but I don't know if they would think I'm cheating somehow if I keep transfering data.

>>2389496
black closet is a heavy gameplay game for people who thought long live the queen was too easy because it wasn't randomised, you will definitely have to work for your endings.

each girl has three CGs, in most cases one of them is a kiss. similar to lottie there is one girl you can't kiss. in one route they definitely, blatantly have sex, in others kink is very strongly implied, but it's all fade-to-black not drawn-out h-scenes.

if you always wanted a kinky nerd girlfriend to call you senpai vonne is there for you.

>>2389461

So yeah, you basically never stop flirting.

>>2389146
Yes, it is.

>>2389277
Katahane isn't a yuri game either.

>>2389538
No, it's not.

>>2389364
The point was not about whether the commas were correct, but about the sentences being clumsy. High amount of technical commas speak of pretentiousness, especially for someone who is obviously not good at basic English. It's the same thing as using period in chatting. While not grammatically incorrect, that particular punctuation is overly formal for the texting environment and thus irritates the readers. Sensing where and where not to use certain proper grammar rules is in itself an aspect of proper English.

>>2389277
>shouldn't be classfied as Yuri
Fuck off. I'll be pissed off if when -I- ask for yuri recommendation and people don't mention something like Katahane/Tokyo Necro/Atlach-Nacha just because of stupidity like yours. The definition of yuri is not "hetero people do not exist on the same planet as the lesbians."

>>2389558
lol

>>2389587
So you're just nitpicking.
I'm pretty sure that has nothing to do with yuri games.

>>2389450
>>2389536
Worthabuy told me the gameplay is shit.

>>2389587
Hate to break it to ya sis, but unnecessary detail is also pretty pretentious.
Back to gamu, is Kindred Spirits totally linear? I want to grab it because everyone seems to love it, but I don't know if it's worth $40 worth of maple syrup.

>>2389635
one of the only english yuri VNs (visual novels with yuri that have any sort of english release) worth paying full-price for imo. although it's been this long that waiting for a sale probably wouldn't hurt either if you're cheap enough

>>2389635
Technically there are choices but they just let you see different scenes, it's pretty much a linear plot

>>2389302

Family Friendly Scissoring

It is pretty mindless, the camera is bad, and the PC release has horrible pricing. That's what pirating is for!

>>2389686
Individual taste has no bearing on labeling. If someone is to ask for a list of all yuri games, your duty is to unbiasedly list ALL yuri games (bisluts are not yuri). I don't like some western shit like the Sakura games for example, but that doesn't have prevent me listing them out, because anon deserve to decide for themselves what they like.

The nicer thing to do is giving unbiased descriptions above just name listing. Something like 'Akai Ito and Aoi Shiro are mostly subtext," "Sonohana small games are mostly PWP," "Katahane and Tokyo Necro have het couples unrelated to the lesbians," etc.

In short, don't be a dick.

Kotonoha Amrilato will be released on August 25.

Well, that's promising. Though it's not like I'm going to play it any time soon anyway when ITZ COMING soon.

am i the only one that's disappointed about fate/extella?. Aside from the shitty port the gameplay is pretty mediocre and nasus writing is kinda shit but better that in other entries in the franchise and the true end is a cheap sequel bait

Probably because there's going to be a sequel. Was confirmed months ago.

>>2390144
It is a Musou after all, it's just a huge fanservice game for waifufags. It does get points for being inclusive for female waifufags though, I suppose.

>>2390144
I liked it because I just love cute girls doing gay things.

>>2390146
What do people have against Musou games? There is no better game type for swtiching your brain off and relieving stress on hoards of cannon fodder.

Either way, it has more in common with Marvelous's other Musou-likes with the small maps and limited gameplay. Real Omega Force games have a lot more to them

>>2390149
It's not satisfying at all. I haven't played a Musou until now, and I fully understand now why people hate on them. I found myself wanting to play a different game. There's so many garbage enemies on the screen. I'm going to finish the game for the dialogue and fanservicey bits, but I might have a palate cleanser afterwards.

>>2390149

It's okay if you're in it for servants flirting with the protagonist, but everything beyond that varies between mediocre and actually bad.
It's actually the only game in the Extra series I can't see myself revisiting and the only one I actually considered dropping after a while. I ended up skimming through most of it.

There's plenty of loli sex games, many of which involve characters signposted as being a lot younger than twelve. Yes, the ages are not usually stated aloud, but when they're knee-high and wearing kindergarten backpacks, you get the point.

Most of them are of course about an older male PC taking advantage of one or more little girls of course. Loli yuri seems sadly rare

>>2390235
I'm sure yuri fans aren't interested in that. I mean, look at Hanahira!.

>>2390222
That's about how old Runa was when she seduced Takako

>>2390235
That's because there are more male pedophiles of both orientations than lesbian female pedophiles. Before Namori, Ejima Eri, and Itou Hachi, I don't recall any female artist sexualizing lolis in a homosexual manner.

>>2390238
Hanahira has no sex, and therefore doesn't sell.

Well, I'm sold.

My friend's complain about otome games having too much female nudity and not enough male nudity gives me an idea. There should be a CMNF otome game where the romance options are mostly male, but they all lead nowhere and the only rewards are lesbian romance and sex. Would be pretty amusing.

>>2390341
Cool idea. Possible routes could be you end up with the false male love interest's sister, or a single mother. Maybe a route where another girl is trying to get him but ends up falling for MC.

But it only works until someone inevitably spills the beans that it's a yurige posing as a otoge, and the only way to get a yuri audience would be the spill the beans

>>2390341
There better be a scene where MC gets gangraped by faceless women.

>>2390238
>look at Hanahira!.
Hanahira was a scam for two things
1. No sex
2. The girls are not even lolis, just chibis like in Lucky Star

>>2390235
>>2390222
It rarely gets mentioned, but there's this one
https://vndb.org/v1088

It's also one of the very very few "harem" yuri games, where the protagonist has several girls she can choose instead of fixed couples (and it includes an actual harem ending too).

Learning Japanese is a lot easier than people think it is.

I want to buy a VN on disc from Japan, but can someone tell me if I will actually be able to play it? Can I just change the applocal like when I download one or will it be some arduous process?

>>2390837
Depends on the game and your OS. It can be very simple, it can be a PITA.

>>2390840
Was gonna get the upcoming Flowers and on Win10.

>>2390837
Learn japanese is really easy.
Remembering thousands of kanji is not.
I can still read fine with KanjiTomo to help me, but it's annoying to know I could be reading it well already if not for that.

>>2390856
Learning kanji is not a hard aspect of learning Japanese.

>>2388722
I would say Katahane but i fucking hated the past part stuff as it was slow and fucking LONG

>>2390860
As someone with a shitty eyesight and a terrible memory for signs, I beg to differ.
At least letters make sense.

>>2390860
How remembering thousands of symbols, dozen of them actually pretty similar with several different readings is not hard? Radicals just make it harder to me, because they end up looking too much like each other.

>>2390881
Unless you want to handwrite (not type) Japanese for some reason, don't bother studying kanji individually. Learn words in the context of sentences and recognition will follow naturally as you see the same kanji in different words.

>>2390872
>>2390881
Try out a spaced repetition system together with story mnemonics. Given an honest try, even people with kind of bad memory will remember stuff utilizing those.
Basically it's making up small stories about each kanji relating to their shape, meaning and reading. You then review these little stories in set intervals. Like first after a few hours, then after a day, then after three, then a week and so on... It's one of the best ways to remember things long-term.
Find a good Anki deck to do this, or sign up on something like Wanikani for easy mode.
I'm lazy as fuck and I can read decently after a year.

This game is so good and so shitty at the same time.

>>2390893
Honestly, I found working through Genki and actually handwriting stuff made my recall and comprehension significantly better than any alternative I'd tried previously, but everyone is different.

Also, Rice has a sale on the Fate Extella hard copies atm if anyone is interested, including the SE.

>>2390900
Especially later when Hakuno posed with the question 'what would be better than a wife' and the answer is 'a husband maybe?'. Not to mention how Tamamo keeps referring to Hakuno as a he when in tandem with the 'husband' bit.

But sure, Tamamo lovers make sense.

>>2390942
It really is unfortunate, considering Cu Lancer has unique lines for the FeMC.

>>2390893
That's what I do, actually. Not even that, I keep reading mangas and such and end up catching the kanji meanings and fixing it. I do use anki, too.

>>2390897
That's the thing, I can't understand how people find mnemonics at all. I have to remember the symbol, the meaning, the readins and a fucking story to go with it and remember what story I created for each kanji. It's like making the puzzle harder.
Needless to say, I tried it, it wasn't working. Maybe it does for some people.

>>2390430
That's for starters. I'm pretty sure the Kamasutra was around by then and Sara, being a bookworm and having lived in India would know about it.

>>2390955
We remember stories well. That why people can sometimes find themselves remembering silly details from a manga or whatever that they read a few years ago.
It's not quite like adding pieces to a puzzle. Think of it like paving additional roads to give you more and easier options to arrive at a certain place.
If you're not a creative person you can always use mnemonics other people have made.

I think the phrase is bad, but essentially, it's referring to the default, that with men and women they can't talk to each other unless it's some kind of romantic stuff, but it's normal for girls to talk to teach each other without that sort of interest.

Probably just to link the line, "It's okay to talk to female servants, right...?"

I hate Japanese-style games.
There's always a billion endings and I will not be satisfied until I know absolutely everything there is to discover.
It's really frustrating.

Well there's a Runefactory clone having a kickstarter right now (with an added mechanic of coop and monster raising), and apparently their team is having an internel debate on whether to include yuri and yaoi marriage candidates.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1723653856/re-legend-co-op-monster-raising-rpg/description

Really hope they choose the right path, since Harvest Moon-esque games with Yuri options are rare.

>>2391078
>apparently their team is having an internel debate on whether to include yuri and yaoi marriage candidates.
I'm not throwing my shekels at retards who debate such and obvious choice in the [current year]. It'll probably be half-assed and not as good/numerous as the het options with such a mentality.

Fuck 'em.

>>2391082
I would agree, but unfortunately, I really want a new rune factory. So I don't have much of a choice, but to back the game.

>>2391084
It's already overfunded dummy. Wait for them to actually implement yuri before supporting them.

>>2390150
>It's not satisfying at all. I haven't played a Musou until now, and I fully understand now why people hate on them.

I actually like musous but something about Extella's gameplay was off, all the gay stuff couldn't make me continue playing. I hope the sequel is better.

Did that one anon who played Giga Wrecker ever finish it?

>>2391124
I for one prefer it to DW and SW, it's faster and the combos/unlocking them is nearly identical. Sure you don't get more powerful weapons but that would be weird with Fate.

>>2391124
>all the gay stuff couldn't make me continue playing
i feel you i would like the sequel to be more like a Devil may cry or Bayonetta, you know, with actual fucking depth

>>2391175

It's the extra series. These games were absolutely horrible. So why would they just make something with good gameplay? That'd be like, going against what the series stands for! It's like developing a Dragon Quest set in space.

>>2391182
They're just fanservice games, they've been so from the start. The protagonist has a weak, blank character, and the lines are generic. The whole plot is nonsense, everything's digital, macguffin plot, blah blah blah, it's just weak overall.

Say what you want about Fate/Stay night, but it had a story to tell.

>>2391191

I hope that one day we'll get our yuri spinoff where the masters and servants are all females. I'm not expecting it, but I'm hoping for it. I do think the idea of mages summoning beings of history and myth to do battle for them is pretty cool, but Nasu's execution of that idea is garbage.

>>2391256
>Nasu is garbage

>>2391125
? I played Giga Wrecker, didn't post here though. The plot gets pretty intense/subtexty? and the game finishes off with handholding, but it's overall a rather family-friendly affair.

I love Kurohane part the most, fuck you. It's the part with an actual interesting plot and not just aimless SoL, and a romantic romance. Without Kurohane, the latter part of Shirohane wouldn't feel as meaningful and tender.

>>2391320
It was my part of playing the game with the choices, i wasn't interested in the yuri as much, i was interested to see the stuff from various point of view and that linear part felt kinda odd to me.
I should replay it, it is been years ago when i first played it, i might get another opinion now.

>>2391320
This desu. It was the only decent part of the whole game.

I was just looking over Miitopia and it sounds extremely goggleable. Anyone buy it to make a lesbian who invites girls to cuddle in her bed?

>>2391334
Hmm, interesting. Let us know when you replay it.

When I first played the game years ago, I didn't know anything aside from the fact that it has yuri, so the straight MC and the long SoL completely blindsided me. But they're unoffensive so I just went along with it. Then came Kurohane and I was very impressed because 1) I'm a political thriller fag, 2) the yuri romance was tragic but 3) it's respectful. Normally women (especially leabians ) will get raped/arranged marriage/treated like trash in any kind of historical tragedy, yet Katahane brilliantly wrote something else, a story where the lesbians are dignified heroes instead. It also contains meaningful friendship with other characters, which I much prefer over stuff that only contains romance.

All I remember when I hear Katahane and Kurohane is freakin' wine. Sure enough, I didn't manage to get past that.

I still think, you either enjoy part 1 or part 2 of the game. (regardless of part 3) I don't think I've ever heard someone say both 1 and 2 were equally great.

I loved Katahane and I would describe it more as a journey vn than a SoL vn. Kurohane starts incredibly boring but it's fine towards the end. It ties some parts together in the story (and third route) but it didn't make or break the vn for me.

Like I said, the main enjoyable part for me was the journey with the gang. Angelina's route didn't really use any story elements from Kurohane and it was great. Super enjoyable and one of my favorite vns, I definitely would not replay Kurohane if I read the vn again tho.

If VNs count as games then Kindred Spirits. I bought it day one, full price, going in blind on faith in yuri and risking massive disappointment. I wasn't let down even a little bit and that wave of optimism I rode the whole way through made me ignore all the parts I could nitpick about. Made me rethink the philosophy of "Hope for the best, expect the worst".

Tried to think of things with gameplay but most of the fun stuff like Senran Kagura tend to be lacking in substantial yuri and most of the rest are basically VNs. I have some favorite side couples in non-yuri games but that's about it.

Looking at the FAQ page, someone asked if you could romance the same sex and a reply made 7 hours ago by the devs said they were "still working on that right now".

So, probably.

Well Tamamo wants to be a traditional Japanese wife or something so she needs a "husband". The retarded goddess doesn't care about genders though. ご主人様 also means master so it's fine I guess. I'm more bothered when she uses ikemen talking about Zabiko.

>>2391724
The definition of "handsome" (and masculinity) is not the same across the globe, you dunce. Not everyone everywhere think a hairy muscular old ape is handsome, or the only kind of handsomeness.

Even in English, "handsome" is still officially a gender-neutral term in dictionaries; used to describe men and women who have a striking type of attractiveness, well-defined features, and dignified aura. It having a masculine connotation is a very recent thing in casual usage.

>>2388758
Reporting. There is no actual romance in Pyre, despite it looking like your good ol' date sim, what's with multiple characters, routes and all. There is a ghost spirit kinda girl that calls you "dear" and "lovely" all the time, so, uh, that's pretty gay, I guess. Although she does it regardless of your gender.
You also share a few moments with her that are pretty intimate, all things considered. Overall, there's no /u/ in the game, although I'd still recommend it if you ever wanted to play a fantasy Space Jam with revolutions and talking dogs.

Just a heads up if you want to start playing it; never lose in Liberation Rites. The game says "hey, it's alright if you lose, as long as you keep going", but that doesn't apply to Liberations. You can still keep going if you lose them, but it will fuck you over later.

Another thing is, it's kind of easy to lock yourself into a playthrough you will regret later. There are no manual saves, everything autosaves into a single slot (although you can recover older saves, the game stores them in its installation directory, so it's not that bad), and with how the gameplay works, you can screw yourself over later on as the story progresses. Not in a "oh shit, I can't complete the game without this one here companion", but more like "oh shit, I did this thing way too soon" or "oh shit, I didn't want to do that back then and now I regret it dearly".
I can't really explain it without spoiling anything, but for your first run, just try to focus on one of your companions. Train them, talk to them, pick their routes, etc. Don't spread yourself too thin.

The Fate/Grand Order arcade version was just announced. Models look so much better. Not that we'll ever be able to play it

>>2392089
>mobage turned arcade
How would that even work?

>>2392109
aren't mobages the natural successor of 'insert quarter to continue'?

>>2392114
Sure but I can't imagine how the gameplay would lend itself to arcade. Unless they gonna change it too.

How does Japan even have arcades still?

>>2392120
Fighting games and pachinko mate.

>>2392120
They actually invested in making them not complete shit

>>2392126
Nah Japan is just backwards in weird ways. Like how PC gaming is still weird over there so everything is on consoles.

>>2392127
Don't forget their phones. They had those phone mails or whatever first and are still not letting it go.

>>2392133
Fax machines are still a thing in Japan.

>>2392147
Same with Geocities.

>>2392147
Aren't fax machines still a thing everywhere, just in very particular capacities?

>>2392246
Pretty much, pager also still actively being used worldwide to this day.

Welp, it actually happened, Nintendo is bring a an actual yuri game, with romance in it too. I didn't really believe it at first but then the trailer came on the official YouTube channel.

>>2392278
Link or you're lieing.

>>2392287
To be honest I don't think I need to link it. Just simply go on YouTube and search up Nintendo official channel or something.

It's literally the first new video they got up.

>>2392301
All of their videos are 2 days old. Nintendo's is Name That Song video, NintendoJPofficial is an ARMS ad, NintendoUK is Pokemon Sun/Moon Trainer Guide.

Don't know what Nintendo channel you've watched it at.

>>2392301
No wait, don't search up the Nintendo channel, whoops, my bad I forgot to look at the name of the channel before I typed this.

Here's the link
https://youtu.be/CCiA6WJxknA

And now that I look at this channel closer, I think this my not be new news, pleas make shur to double neck me if it's not.

>>2392306
>obligatory lurk moar newfag
It's been known that it's going to come out for a long time now.

>>2392306
It's just one of the most commented games here.
So much that people started to complain and there's a thread for it now.

>>2392306
Nintendo made Bayonetta 2 happen, they did gay stuff for FE, and they just released a bunch of new games with various levels of goggleable yuri like Ever Oasis, Miitopia, and Splatoon. A 3rd party port is insignificant compared to all that.

>>2392308
Deus I'm going to neck myself right away


Sorry for wasting your time with old news

>>2392317
>they did gay stuff for FE
and then the fuckin treehouse erased them, but i still have hope

>>2392682
>Treehouse
Never forget that it employed a pedophile while it refused to localize FE gayness.

>>2392119
If Kancolle has Arcade version FGO can get Arcade version too.

What was cut out from FE?

>>2392698
Actually half the game. I'm not kidding. They cut most of the dialog, replacing bits of it with memes.

>>2392698
>>2392701
and the community had to pull a kotor II TSLRCM
with an uncut EUR copy of FE

>>2392701
I wish I could say you're overreacting, but it's really true. They even changed entire character concepts into memes. Effie is supposed to be quiet and cute, not a mid-40's meathead who mentions her muscles every single time she opens her mouth.

>>2392317
XCX also had side lesbians.

I can't believe that a fucking fan translation patch is better.

>>2392706
It doesn't even matter what they put out. If anything is different for no good reason, people will use their Western superiority complex and say "it's better anyway".

That's not the best example of the atrocities since it's just a very weird rephrasing.
Stuff like this is the worst of it.

>>2392710
"Rrrghg rawrgghh rrrh!" is just a very weird rephrasing? I think you might've interpreted the image wrong.

>>2392711
While mangled beyond belief and rather cringeworthy, the core idea of the scene is still intact and it communicates what is being said, even if it's in a very shit form.
It's bad, but not the big issue with the localization.

How do you get the good ending in love ribbon?

>>2392714
I really do believe it's the same as your example. Sure, the base meaning "I love you" does at least get across, but it doesn't have the same nuance at all. That's one of the most important things in localisation. It doesn't have to just say exactly the same thing; it has to feel the same as the original. It's why commie memesubs are terrible, but an unedited literal translation is also terrible. That line is a radical rewrite that serves no actual purpose in localisation.

You aren't wrong that it's technically better than your example, but it's still absolute garbage and should never happen.

Sorry for the ramble. I'm not good at this.

>>2392716
You let your sister be a piece of shit who loves herself more than you.

>>2392722
What kind of female protagonist are you if you don't put everyone else's feelings far above your own?

>>2392722
I wouldn't have the ovaries to discipline her anyway. Thanks.

>>2392714
I'm not familiar with FEF characters, so my assumptions might be wildly off the mark, but "Rgrahfdsgsdrgerty" and "I'm really happy we'll always be together" paint two completely different pictures for me. The first one is a girl with, uh, dragon-y behavior and dorky humor. Probably is easy-going, often comes off as stupid or as someone who doesn't really take things seriously. The second one is, well, I don't know. "I'm really happy" is a fairly neutral expression. As in, no odd personality quirks. It's emotional, sure, but it doesn't give me anything other than "that character isn't afraid to show emotions".

Now, it's entirely possible that assumption A is correct when it comes to her overall personality. Her sprite does look like she's that one light-hearted, always cheerful character. However, it's pretty clear than this scene is supposed to be more emotional, and "rawr amma dragon" doesn't really fit.

But hey, what do I know. Last time I talked to somebody in person for longer than a minute was two years ago.

>>2392840
people are overrated, oneesama

>>2392722
Give her a break, she's a stupid teenager, just about everyone has at least a phase like that

>>2392915
i'd give her a break over being a brat and occasionally sulking, it's the fact that it leads to an irreversible bad end that makes it annoying

>>2392921
That's more on the plot than the character

>>2392922
>>2392921
And really barely even on the plot since things don't even play out that differently, you just decide not to make up post-timeskip for some reason. Just weird/bad writing really.

I did not expect this.

>>2392934
That's Extella right? One of Tamamo's bonding events? I think I have one or two left.

Did you miss when Medusa was rather interested in Jeanne? Jeanne got all flustered and scared. It was two or three lines but it was funny.

>>2392923
that's the thing, it implies that when she grows up and looks back at her teenage mistakes, she still holds that against the protagonist and therefore they don't get back together.
that may not be what the writers intended because they certainly didn't put any thought into the plot at any point, but it means if you think about things the character seems like a bitch.
it's one of those tricky things in VN writing where you need to be careful because you can end up sending messages you don't mean. like if agreeing to sex means you get killed and so on.

I know life isn't supposed to be fair, but still. What the fuck?

>>2392911
You're right. I will always have you, anon.

>>2393042
I think Nero's is the most heartbreaking. How she goes from cheerful to that state in the CG in the epilogue. I still have my final route though so we'll see.

>>2393042
>>2393045
I think final route is more Nero though, so hopefully there's redemption there

>>2393046
It is yes. I was collecting yakisoba-pan though. For that glutton. Cause she has a pretty nice Code Cast unlock.

>>2392934

Any of the other side stories also worth playing?

>>2393042
Yeah, the dichotomy there is pretty crazy.
Haven't gotten all the bond events yet, but there's already been 3 fade-to-black sex scenes with Tamamo. I wasn't expecting the game to be so upfront about it.

>>2393180
Caster does seem to be based in the "capital of lust" and is basically a whore, so I'm guessing they're playing up that angle. There are even apparently statues of her legs in her stage.

>>2393198
>and is basically a whore
Rude. She loves you.

>>2393213
It's her nature, it's not rude to call a whore a whore.

>>2393134
For /u/ reasons or in general?
Medusa has some side /u/ with NTR ending where she steals you from Tamamo
I also find her very fun to play as. Would be even more fun with less X mashing but oh well.
Archer's feels very nostalgic and satisfying and I'm not even a Fatefag.
Lu Bu's is mostly DURR HULK SMASH YOU but it reveals some interesting little things in Tamamo's route.

>>2393230
Unless she takes money for banging you, she's not a whore. Just a slut.

>>2393230
But it's Nero who is supposed to be the Whore of Babylon.

>>2393296
She's a "courtesan". It'd be part of her job, whether or not she's taking money.

>>2393134
Jeanne's is nice. It explores her motivations a little even if it's not part of the main story.

How can other girls even compete? Jesus she was adorable in her route.

>>2393369
Funnily enough, when you progress through the routes, the more possessive each of them gets. Like Nero<Tamamo<Altera in terms of possessiveness. It's kind of interesting.

>>2393369
Yeah, seriously. I replayed the game just to see how cute she was again.

>>2393391
She has the advantage of not already being with the MC prior to the game so it's understandable.

FLOWERS le volume sur hiver opening movie
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36lAVsXO7XQ&feature=youtu.be

>>2393448
For some reason every time I hear you guys talk about flowers it turns me off the game. Which is a pity because the art looks amazing.

>>2393465
It's Maria Sama with actual lesbians, with music done by the Aoishiro/Akaiito composer, and probably the best art for a Yuri game ever.

If this is appealing, you should try it out.

>>2393490
>music done by the Aoishiro/Akaiito composer, and probably the best art for a Yuri game ever
I'm familiar with IG's art and music but I still decided to stay away from Flowers for a decade or two because it's an episodic story licensed by JAST. Not knowing moonrunes is suffering.

>>2393258
>Would be even more fun with less X mashing but oh well.
Her X, X, X, Y and Y, Y combos are the way to go.

>>2393321
She was a courtesan. She's not anymore. Lots of servants were things in their previous life that they aren't anymore (including being male.) This incarnation of Tamamo is completely devoted to Hakuno.

>>2393448
My heart

>>2393369
I'll see when I get to her route, but lots of people seem to like Caster a whole lot and her route has just made me dislike her more.

>>2393571
Did you play her route in the first game? I'd imagine not having that experience would make bitch Tamamo less tolerable.

>>2393574
If by "first game" you mean Extra, she isn't really a bitch there. Don't know about CCC, because >alien language.

>>2393571
>>2393574
Or CCC for that matter. CCC expands greatly on servant relationships. In Tamamo's case, it explores her past as an anti hero and its connection to her obsession with being a good wife. CCC also touches upon her experience with Pieceman or however you spell him in English.

In Nero's case, you don't miss too much skipping EXTRA and CCC because the atmosphere for her route and presentation of her character are more or less consistent throughout the three games, but with Tamamo, she comes across as an unreasonable bitch in Extella without playing EXTRA and CCC.

There's also the fact English loca has failed yet again with translating gender neutral dialogues properly. So Tamamo constantly refers to you with male pronouns regardless of gender. In original text that never happens.

>>2393593
Not that having CCC background justifies Tamamo's characterization or route in Extella. It merely and barely explains why it could've come to that. Extella has shit set up and shittier scenario for anything other than fan service.

At least you get to hear the gay script fully voiced.

>>2393574
I never played her route in Extra no, I only played through the game fully once as Saber. I can't imagine it would make much difference though. I'm pretty unforgiving when it comes to bitches.

Well, that route really is something else.

>>2393609
Maybe Extella should get its own thread? You guys are getting kinda active with non-spoilered images and plot discussions.

>>2393619
I agree. I'm really not in the mood to play it right now and this whole thread is a minefield.

>>2393619
We do have recurring Fate/Type Moon threads already >>2391733 where this might be more appropriate.

>>2393619
>>2393632
>>2393644
Personally I'd rather ignore the terrible FG/O discussion but there have been a lot of spoilers for some reason

>>2393465
the art is great but the game is trash. it felt creepy to play like it was obviously written by some middle aged men or something. unpopular opinion, I know.

>>2393682
There's some irony in that since (as I understand) it's one of relatively few Japanese yuri VNs actually written by a confirmed woman.

>>2393666
The reason would be because the game came out a week or so ago on PC.
