It's an incredibly comfortable game to play, from the beautiful dithered art to what is one of the best soundtracks in gaming it's just a joy to play through.
It being an older VN, it's almost more accurate to describe it as an point-and-click adventure game, since that's what you'll be doing most of the time.
The amount of things to click on and unique dialogue you'll get is astounding, and the characters always feel real. The protagonist is a nice goof too, always having plenty of banter or jokes directed at you.
The story is definitely mystery, genre-wise. I don't want to spoil that much about it since the less you know about it the more you'll enjoy it, but it's about a highschool kid whose father went missing and one day he receives a package from his dad.
Expect a story that just keeps growing and growing and growing and then eventually manages to tie it all back together too!

The best thing about all of this? The objectively best version of this game is the english translation that was released in 2011.

Like I said, the best way to play this game is by going in blind, just experiencing it. Then after you've done say 2 routes and feel like you're having trouble getting to the other endings you should consult the guide.

Do what I do anon, just play it in english first and then play it in japanese in a couple years.
The languages are so far removed that it will be a new experience anyway.

I tried playing the remake but all the kanji was making it go so slowly.

How the fuck did Kanna not graduate highschool in 40 fucking years?

>>387733674
I was considering doing that but I think it'd be better if I spent the time just studying instead

Can I play this on a Saturn in English?

Hnnnnngggg, Eriko makes my heart skip a beat every time I see her. A shame her epilogue look isn't that great, it just looks a bit odd...

Considering you can see vaginal blood after her capture in the bad end, was she pure?

>>387733976
You can look at it this way, if you absolutely love this VN, you will probably be more motivated to read it in its original language. That's what happened with me.

>>387733997
No english Saturn release, sorry. You can play it in English on windows however.

>>387732878
>>387733080
Sounds pretty nice. How long does it take to complete the game roughly? Or a route if there's multiple.

>>387734297
>was she pure?
Probably. As pure as you can be when you give someone a handjob, anyway.

It's interesting that she's the only one you can't really fuck, in the entire game.

kanna is best girl

>>387734297

Literally only has unconsummated love for her scientist husbando, only willing to give Takuya a handy for that reason

>>387734297
>You can look at it this way, if you absolutely love this VN, you will probably be more motivated to read it in its original language
Yeah I guess that's true. I'll give it a go then. This isn't a VN that has routes/scenes that rely on one time shock value right?

I have. it is pretty high up there on the list of things I would like to selectively forget and experience all over again.

Isn't that scene from the Saturn port anyway? Meaning that in the original pc-98 version you can't do ANYTHING with her.

That would explain why it's such a big deal for her to strip when you solve her puzzles.

>>387734451
I love Eriko. What a great woman.

This is how long it took me to 100% finish the game. I have heard it took other anons between 40 and 60 hours though. There's a completely playthrough (with all the dialogue) on youtube that's about 80 hours.

>>387734619
Nope! In fact, it's encouraged that you play through them again after a certain point!

>>387734934
Cool, I'll give it a go then, thanks anon.

I'll play it when it can run on my phone.

From someone who loved it and obsessed with it as you do with things that you've finished and really liked - the one thing YU-NO really excells at is the atmosphere of the 90s. Portrayed both in its narrative and through means that the authors really had no control over, like the dated launcher and the UI.

"Dated" here, being used in a positive way, obviously. If you go to full screen YOU WILL be transported into a time that games aren't really in anymore. If I had to give a game that gives me a similar feeling when playing, it would be Uplink.

YU-NO also has a pretty unique take on saving the game, but going into that is a tl;dr. There are probably better overall VNs out there, especially nip only ones, but I really recommend checking it out.

But I have. I still listen to the OST from time to time too, so nostalgic even though it's only been a few years.

>>387735173
Why do you bother with games like this if you're a casual?

Did the remake tone down the incest?
It was a bit too much for my conservative tastes.

>>387734934
Speaking of that wallpaper, do we see it at any point in the game? I've always thought it was a view of the capital city.

>>387735173
It does have a couple of those screens unfortunately. But as soon as you know what to do it will never be a problem again.

>>387735523
It toned down all the sexual content, so my guess is yes. Tasteless fag.

>>387735523
Considering it removed all the sex scenes, I'd assume so.

>>387734934
That's pretty lengthy. Despite the age it does sound quite interesting though. I'll give it a go once I'm done with what I'm currently playing. Thanks anon.

>>387735640
>>387735634
Wow really? I was only joking - I thought the relationship between father/daughter was critical to the entire plot and the game would be neutered without it.
I didn't expect them to actually do something like that.

What was the point of remaking it?

You're going to install the original PC jap version first, then the translation patch, then the voices. Never heard about the pc98 ost, so it's optional, I'd imagine.

I have no clue either, but apparently it's the original FM versions made by the composer himself. Not sure how it differs from what was originally released.

I gotta ask, how much of the eroticism can I avoid? I'd prefer an actual story, not that garbage

>>387744317
There's not many eroscenes in the game, most of them you'll find at the end of a route.

>>387731948
I still have bunch of CAN backlog I'll never finish

>>387744317
The porn in this is pretty bad but it's generally limited to the end of a route. It's like 1% of the content or less. And you can just hold CTRL through it.

It's actually the one example of the erotica taking away from the game. And it's not even a "ooh, games can't have titties" it's that the some of them are so contrived and drag on and are so poorly written that you can't help but eyeroll. But hey. It's tits, I'm not complaining.
