This general is for the discussion of Japanese visual novels.
Kindly use spoiler tags appropriately when discussing plot spoilers to facilitate smooth discussion.

first for moege is allowed

What have you done?
>>153234737
Well you heard the anon, might as well make the best of it.
Friendly reminder that yuri is the purest form of love.
What is your favorite moege?
Mine is Da Capo2
Otome is the best.
>>153235312

>>153232301
I'll read it in a moment, I just need a drink.But seriously, Nemu isn't getting any sympathy. Making the MC do deranged things, casting away his humanity, making him torment others.And come on, sealing Rinne on a wall is going too far. That shit is done, no reversing it and her days are numbered. Even Byakua didn't go THAT far in her route. Nemu's schemes far outweight the little acts of kindness she had done, don't give me that eternal unrequited love bullshit.Then again, this might just be 5deep7me.
>>153235434
Oh man, get ready for it.
>>153235548
He already knows Nemu a shit. Nothing more to be ready for.
Nemu is quite literally the best nukige girl. She also has the hottest voice. No need to prove me wrong since you can't.
When can Rance and Monster Girl generals get reasorbed?
>>153235368
Da Capo 3.
Everyone (even Ruru-nee) is very likeable.
>>153198982
Post CGs, man.
>>153235312
>>153235892
I was going to meme and say she isn't even the best girl in her own game but I can't even say that.
The girls in Euphoria were so shit it's unbelievable. Pre-cult Rinne is probably the only girl that comes close.
>>153235368
I'm reading through Da Capo 2 right now.
Koko's route is a complete mess. Like three different types of drama going on at the same time plus misunderstandings. Also for someone that has her own route, Nanaka has an excessive amount of screen time.
So, I finished Forest. It wasn't exactly what I was expecting but it was bretty gud.

>>153241359
good lewd is what you'll be missing.
>>153241359
You don't need to but read them anyway. More importantly, go for Al's route first to avoid some scenes in the other routes feeling like complete asspulls. The two other routes are more like complementary side-material than full stories that work on their own.
>>153241735
>>153242090
Right, then I'll go for them.
>go for Al's route first
That's what I was going to do, I usually follow the order suggested byFuwanovel walkthroughs.

Just wait.
It getsso much worse.
>>153238520
I agree with you somewhat.
Pre-cult Rinne was nice, being a little perverted with her bonus games and her vanilla H was fantastic.Sensei was okay, too.
>>153226137
She justifies her actions pretty damn well when you finally get to the true route, which you probably should have done earlier.
Oh and don't forget about the evil end where the MC goes all edgy sadist and some funny stuff happens.
hey friends, recommend me someting with lolis and english translation

I don't want to spoil it but there's a personality switch that'll make you hate her.
Tempted to give Rewrite a spin after finished Tomoyo After, but I'm afraid of the feels...
>>153251709
Are you that idiot who is reading Tomoyo After because you finished Tomoyo's route in Clannad? How about you finish fucking Clannad first?
>>153251816
can't man
already finished best girl's route, nothing left for me
kek
>>153252185
No point in you reading Rewrite then, since you'll finish one route then won't bother with the remaining 70% of the VN
>>153252251
You've taken the bait
>>153251816
Don't post disgusting sluts. Thanks.

My bad.
>new henreader
sup guys
tried everything, no success, so i am going to ask here.
i cant get saya no uta to change window size. putting it into full screen mode only aligns it to the top left corner of my screen, the window size stays the same.
there seems to be no way to manually change the window size by editing a file, which worked with umineko.
>>153255596
Don't change it? You'll just make it ugly, read it it in its native resolution

>>153260912
Cyanide or get off your ass more often.
>>153260912
Take a walk, man.
lol
>>153261013
>>153261048
No, fuck you. My waifu needs me.
>>153255596
Found a solution to the problem.
Use compatibility settings to make the game launch in 640/480, Windows XP mode. That way, if you close the game, the resolution becomes normal again.
Staying in Windows 10 made the program irresponsive after loading a save for some reason, once I set compatibility settings to Windows XP everything workwed fine.
>>153261492

>>153235434
Is Euphoria any good even if you aren't interested in the fapbait?
>>153262809
It has a decent story for a nukige. Don't expect much though.
>>153262809
Maybe, it's got an above average plot and some nice character development.
>>153235368
> Otome is the best.
Holy shit what's with this shit taste? Anzu and Robutt are best girls, with Yume a close second.
You like fucking Otome, aka 'I'll wipe the protagonist out of fucking existence, even when he mutually loves my sister'. Fucking worst girl, right there.
>>153258102
>2011+1+3+1
>still playing league
Off yourself
>>153262809
It hasn't been anything mindblowing so far, but it's interesting enough for me to keep reading. The character development is pretty nice on each route and seeing the surface for the first time kinda surprised me.
>>153263146
>You like fucking Otome, aka 'I'll wipe the protagonist out of fucking existence, even when he mutually loves my sister'. Fucking worst girl, right there.
It is hardly like she did it happily. She's depressed/borderline suicidal about it in all the routes. She had to get rid of the devil tree that was causing havoc.
One's personal happiness over the lives of everyone on the Island isn't as important, especially when Sakura/Junichi already gave up their lives trying to calm it.
Anzu/Otome best girls
>>153263146
>>153263983
Moe degeneracy is not allowed here. Fuck off.
>>153259883
>>153262809
It's decent. Maybe a little better than that depending on how you personally react to the themes/tweests.
It's a pretty flawed product though just by the nature of the true route being kind of rushed near the end. As well as the other routes not being nearly as interesting.
Still probably one of the better nukige out there.
>>153264567
Translated nukige*
Searching kanji by radicals ain't that difficult actually. It is quite nice desu
>>153265445
It's pretty good in comparison to untranslated ones too. Even if you keep it strictly to the fap-bait.
>>153266041
The what?
>>153266041
I think that's too heavy praise for a story that's only redeeming factor is existing but ok.
>>153265802
Doesn't kanjitomo work with visual novels?
Would seem easier than looking up kanji individually.
>>153266323
It probably does. For now, I am just watching random videos on my phone though. them baby steps

What do you guys think about KOPs?
>>153270164
Off-topic -since DR isn't really VN ..as much as i like it- but thats what i liked about hinata in DR2 , using "zo" instead of "yo"
>>153270485
Nothing, I think nothing.
>>153270485
I'm actually taking a Korean class at university. A lot of the words are the same as Japanese but with a gross gook accent. hakkyo = gakkou, hakseng = gakusei, etc.
>>153270485
Probably way better than both the J and E , they are not annoying us here
>>153270485
Koreans are basically just a more successful version of the Japanese at this point. It isn't too much longer until they hijack the visual novel industry as well and start producing kamige.
>>153270914
wtf, i hate korean now
>>153271002
they already have, thats why our savior dovac is working to bring kvns to the west

This is exactly why they will succeed where Japan failed; they won't succumb to sating the urges of horny teenage boys, they'll approach visual novels from the perspective of actual literature, thus paving in the way for the visual novel medium to receive the artistic notoriety it deserves.
Korea will make visual novels the new standard in art.

Wasn't there another guy on here a few days ago that said he fucked up his wrists and backs? You guys should really take care of your bodies. Sitting on the computer all day will kill you from a blood clot or a heart attack eventually if you don't ever move your body.

Just like what western VN developers have done... OH WAIT.

>>153271804
Western pigs don't have brains.
>>153267940I just saw Byakua. That explains alot of things. The reason she had those headaches and became a cultist was because he could see bits of the real world and eventually went bonkers.

How do people even get off to low tier ecchi shit anymore? I'll never understand how fap bait is popular when outright porn and hentai exists
>>153272284
it's a sort of masochism
>>153272284
it's not for fapping
it's just a pretty picture
>>153272284
Subtlety and teasing is hotter than straight up benis in vagina.
>>153272439
there is absolutely nothing 'subtle' about fanservice and blue-balling
Just finished Beth's route and it was a snorefest.
I like the concept and it's decently pulled off but there is no fucking drama in this despite the possibilities.
The language barrier ? Severely underplayed.
Long distance relationship ? No problem at all.
Reuniting after two years ? Just like before.
Studying aboard ? Leave it to perfect McProtagonist.
Getting your marriage recognized ? Easy as pie.
Seriously just throw in some generic tropes, jealousy, distrust, cultural differences, fucking SOMETHING to keep me hooked.
Even the /pol/ LEAF guy immediately turned to I LOVE MULTICULTURALISM in a few lines thanks to the protagonist's pheromones.
I really hope it was just her route.
>>153272439
It is. Random fanservice here and there in my anime is alright. But hentai is pretty boring overall since all they want to do is screw/ntr and fuck the plot
>>153272719
That's how routes tend to be in these pure love games.
>>153272719
>moogy already outed baldr heart as a massive disappointment

Everyone has been saying it was shit for days.
>>153272747
a pantyshot there, or an angle on the ass there isn't what we're talking about.
we're talking about fapbait garbage like Seikon no Qwaser which has absolutely nothing interesting about it aside from the copious amounts of fanservice.

She honestly had the best scenes desu.
This is the wrongest place to ask but....what is the closest thing to Ace Attorney that isn't danganronpa or -what i assume is- Umineko? Doesn't matter if it is translated or not.
Heard that KnS is kinda close to it, is it true?
>>153273217

>Miracle Kagari Edition
So I've been watching the anime, but i haven't played the VN. Does the game make any sense, because the anime sure doesn't. It's as if they tried to somehow merge 3 completely unrelated stories together
>>153273217
Clue
>>153273217
There isn't anything.
>>153273290
It's a 50 hour story condensed into a 4 hour anime, what do you think? Go read the VN, it's good.
>>153272985
Zen knew it was shit all along
>>153272719
If you think it's bad, you're the one that's wrong.
>>153272719
Seems like another victim of "nothing ever happens, they fuck and happy end". How boring
>>153273570
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentum_ad_populum
>>153272747
I can't really enjoy fanservice in anime when I know 9 times out of 10 there's never going to be any payoff. I'd watch a lot more anime if I knew the protagonist is actually going to pick one girl instead of just keeping the status quo.

>You just activated my trap cardSorry lad I'm not into boipucci
>>153273942
All the statistics tell you is that a number of people think it is good, however that isn't an argument in and of itself.
>>153274314
It's a strong enough source to draw extrapolations, i.e. a game widely considered good is good.
(Naturally I'm not seriously saying he's wrong because of it, just pointing out the game is being very well received while also being tongue in cheek)
>>153274314
>a high number of people think it is good
>you are a people
>there is a high chance you will think it's good
but if you don't, that's not a big deal
but you're also right- if you think it sucks, then it sucksfor you
and that's what matters
other peoples opinions don't matter after you've tesed it for yourself
>>153273570
Uhh.. Gero Harukafags?
>>153274314
The statistics say that only 15 people voted on it. Give it a month or two for more people to finish reading it so the rating balances out before you argue in favor of a whopping sample of 15.
>>153274641
You aren't 12 years old so use proper punctuation.

what's wrong with my puncuation?
>>153274841
VNDB users vote moreso on CGs and art than the actual content of the game due to the language barrier.

Why everyone like moege so much?
>>153275279
Because it's better and more enjoyable
>>153275279
More like there's only moege.
>>153275279
Those who want good stories just read literature
>>153275252
I really doubt you know those users on a personal level, so quit talking out of your ass and making blanket statements. Plenty of vndb users can read Japanese.
>>153275279
Good art and cute girls sell. And Senren Banka has that and 1080p as well.
>>153275654
vn is literature tho
And who says you can't have a good story and cute girls? I think you should go to /lit/ and jerk off there
>>153275884
>And who says you can't have a good story and cute girls
All the games on this list >>153275279 say that
>>153275669
I'm not talking about my ass. Yorhel complains about how many fake voters he has to remove, people mention it in forum threads, enormous games like Ginharu get ratings the day of release when that's simply unreasonable if someone actually read it (check yourself, one guy even voted last month), etc etc etc. Check out pic related, there's no way someone could read that fast.
This protag has potential
>>153275975
explain your reasoning
>>153276036
Yeah, "perverted guy who's also got great morals" sure is a character with potential. Snooze.
>>153275975
And how many of those VNs have you actually read instead of judging from the cover and some sample CGs?
>>153276129
autism
>>153276036
Why didn't MG announce this again?
>>153275252
CGs are just as important in Japan. Probably more so. A VN will live or die based on the number of CG and its correlated price.
I believe Frontwing talked about this. They said that in Japan, CGs are the biggest decided factor for sales, but, in the West, it's the price.
>>153276268
because the Rancefags were louder
>>153276268
Rancefags.
>>153276272
The important difference is that the Japanese read the games even if CGs are a big factor in rating, whereas VNDB users tend to just make votes purely based on CG sets. So while the high ratings of ginharu on EGS may be a result of the CGs, that's an entirely different discussion than VNDB votes being worthless due to so many EOP votes from people who don't read the games.
>>153276268
The Rance games that they announced are old as shit so it probably didn't cost them a whole lot and they know Rancefags are going to buy the shit out of it so they can get more.
>>153276268
>>153276329
also Arunaru had already basically finished the VI translation forever ago, so it makes more sense to release that since it would be less work (and wouldn't halt his other projects)
>>153276329
if they didn't announce it they'd be even louder you know
>>153276272
isn't it the length for the west in comparison to number of CGs for Japan?
>>153277257
Length bumps the price up and Steamfags cry about titles that are over 10 dollars, so, no, not really.
Also keep in mind that the best selling visual novels have been the cheap and short ones.
>>153275983
There are a total of three votes made on or before the release date which are likely in question in regards to legitimacy (considering the length).
That still leaves 9 votes made at least one day after the release date which may or may not be legitimate. Considering their profiles, forum posts, and their other rated titles (and the relation towards the dates) I would surmise that:
https://vndb.org/u76127
https://vndb.org/u60020/ (either a troll, or just has outrageously shit taste)
https://vndb.org/u62377
Are 'fake' voters. So that bumps up the fake votes to 6 total.
>NVL
>>153276272
No in the west it's price to game length ratio
>>153277672
Takes some time to download, you know? Not to mention it's longer than 24 hours, so prodyzer and clutch can be added to fake voters because they haven't read the game. The mere existence of 8 fake voters out of 15 not is a huge detriment to VNDB in the first place, even if the rest are somehow all legitimate readers which there is no reason to believe considering more than half aren't - a lack of evidence is not the same as something being confirmed not to be true. My argument has only been strengthened.
>>153278297
I wasn't arguing against you in this case, I was just rambling after looking at the voters.
I just got Mayuri's ending in Flowers.Did I miss something? Why did she leave?Did she get threatened by the Sister as well? Everything was so abrupt I feel like I skipped something important. Also why the fuck does Suoh just accept it imediately? Man, I'm pissed and sad.
>>153278561
I took note of that potential so I said "My argument has only been strengthened", which is neutral as to your position. I wasn't clear enough, sorry.
>>153278640

I can read Japanese and I still buy MG titles because it's an easy way for me to support companies I like as well as the localization company.
I sometimes read things in English too. Like, I read Fata in English even though there was a Japanese option. Mostly because I can speed-read in English but I'm far from that level when it comes to Japanese.
>>153279896
If you know Japanese why would you care about what happens to them?

Reading VNs is one of the most popular ways of learning the language on DJT, just alongside manga. You can bring up any raw VN there and as long as you're mentioning your progress on the language and not just the VN itself it'll be on-topic. So go there you faggot.I'll be there too.

It's honestly not that bad. Most of the h scenes actually had fluffy but somewhat titillating replacements, like for example, a short scene from the girl's point of view while she's using Masaya's shower before doing the deed with an extra cg. Some of the terminology was lessened, but honestly having the students using terms like 'assault' instead of rape, and having stuff like the discussion about sex ed with konomi be slightly less explicit actually makes more sense thematically and flows a bit better. As far as all ages goes, it's probably one of the better ones.

Finished the True Route.
I don't know what to say, I managed to guess the general idea behind Nemu's character, ended up not hating anyonebut Rikaand realized this really was going places.It really hit me when Keisuke was talking to Nemu at the gates of reality. The ending felt a little bit rushed, but I'm okay with this.It was a wild ride with its ups and downs, I feel satisfied with the end.Felt bad about Rinne, she most likely died soon after Keisuke left.
Goddamnit, I need another drink. And some sleep.

Underwater Ray Romano had a good story and gameplay, even though I couldn't be arsed to do the combos manually. The end was a bit rushed, but it was enjoyable.

Himatsubushi-hen, Minagoroshi-hen and Matsuribayashi-hen don't really have their own main girls though. I'm not sure you'll be able to do these arcs until you've finished the earlier ones in the relevant release.
>>153295959
>>153296854
Read Fata Morgana.
>>153295959
Well Umineko is like an 80 hour time investment or smth and in my opinion it wasn't worth it.
It has its fans though so give it a shot if you really want to know what the fuss is about
Trianthology's demo was released. This is an unedited part of the opening.
What did R07 mean by this?

>He has a good plot reason for that.
I'm not sure what the exact word for this phenomenon is, but it doesn't really matter if the plot backs it up, because the plot would have been contrived solely to back it up no matter the case. To put it in other words... He's not perverted because of the plot, the plot justifies his perversion because they wanted a perverted protagonist. Therefore, it's not that meaningful.
>>153325024
No. The plot justifies his compulsion with following the rules and law
>>153325024
a thoroughly jaded and inorganic point-of-view.
with those sort of mental gymnastics, essentially all character developments, motivations, etc. are not due to the plot, but are due to a contrivance and are thus no longer meaningful.
you can take this another step and say, "they wanted these themes in this piece of writing, and wrote the plot around that. there, it isn't meaningful"
and so on.

>>153325342
Oh, you were referring to that stuff? I'm not sure why you thought that would make his character seem any better, childishly simplistic as it is.
>>153325419
It's not meaningful that the plot backs him up. I didn't say everything about the game isn't meaningful. I didn't say his character wasn't meaningful, nor did I say the plot wasn't meaningful. I just said the fact the plot backs him up isn't meaningful. You really jumped the gun here anon.

He's not meant to be a great character in that because he's a base that will develop.But he's the product of at least 13 generation to produce a 'hero' to serve the plans of the very same faction dedication to controlling humanity and continuing the goddess commandments over humanity.
The very same commandments the game points out are bad for humanity and the villain is right to want to eliminate them.
Its set up to be a multiple game series so yes he starts out boring

I wrote up a pretty big post explaining my POV but ended up deleting it because I'm not trained in formal logic so I don't think it has much weight. That said, I definitely consider it a misinterpretation or otherwise exaggeration to say that the logical end to finding a plot excessively contrived so as to not be meaningful, is that all fiction is meaningless because it's all contrived in the mind of an author. I'll get back to you on how after training formal logic.

>>153328414

I mean learning japanese is fine and everything but it's not necessary if you want to enjoy that game, it's more of a point and click than a VN. Think of it as the spiritual sequel to Hizashi no naka no Real with shittier art and puffier vulva.

It's not even that hard though. It looks like a lot because you're used to briefly worded, double spaced 4chan posts with a tiny vocabulary pool but even in nvl format the lines basically come one at a time right? That makes it easy like those rulers with the transparent highlight strip they give to 1st graders who are learning how to read. I'm sure if they saw a whopping five or six lines of text they'd cry for mommy too but after a time they get over it, and if you just lift your fat ankles over the double whopper sized hurdle then you can make it too.

Granted, we'd all be the ones gutted and tossed in a bonfire, but knights were the white niggers of feudal western society, complete with their own special interest group that spread propaganda about how they were good boys who dindu nuffin.
It was a good time to be a white knight slash glorified merceny.

I had a look at the wiki and the list and didn't see this so here's my deal.
I'm trying to install Rewrite on windows 10. I used the built-in ISO mounting to install, and started disc 1. It brought up a prompt for disc 2, so I tried to mount disc 2 and click autorun like I was told, then click ok on the prompt.
That doesn't seem to work, it just repeats the prompt.
Any ideas?
>>153352384
>Any ideas?
Wait for Rewrite+ release
>>153352384
>I'm trying to install Rewrite on windows 10.
Here's your problem. Upgrade to 7 or 8.
>>153352384
Did you unmount/eject disk 1 first before mounting disk 2? It is probably looking for the disk to be mounted at the same dive letter you used for disk 1.
>>153352517
I can't, I play Windows 10 exclusive games.
>>153352251
If Type Moon were so good why do they keep on milking their shitty waifu bait character who was less popular than Kenshin.
And before you claim otherwise one point =/= one vote
>>153352517
Rewrite's listed as compatible on that list tho.
>>153352552
Oh there we go, it's mounting disc 1 in D and Disc 2 in F. How do I tell it to put it in D?
>>153352612
Nevermind, I fixed it. I was mounting from the wrong menu.
Thanks for pointing out the disc locations anon.
>>153352652
Right click the drive in explorer and click eject on both then mount disk 2 again. Should mount it as D:.

That's literally one shitposter you inept retard
Done your reps yet today /vn/?
>>153354754
>>153354201
Because Nasu is a writer who knows how to do interesting things with the format he’s using, and the progressive nature of the three routes allowed him to show Shirou in three progressive lights. In Fate, everything Shirou does is validated (which, as we found, was not particularly interesting); in UBW, everything he believes is challenged; and in Heaven’s Feel, it’s destroyed. The layered thematic progression of F/SN is what made it a profound work.
>>153354754

>As for FSN vs Dies, well, that's a tough question since the former, besides being regarded by many as the best VN, is one of my personal favorites too (it's pretty tough to match something that is thought of as the best, lol). Anyway, it depends on your definition of good, but I think FSN is more entertaining and tells a better story, while Dies is more impressive as an achievement. FSN's philosophy and themes are poignant and relatively easy to digest, while DI is such an incredible amalgam of all sorts of ideas and quotes — both relevant to the plot and not so much — that it's sometimes hard to tell whether Masada is throwing them left and right just to sound cool, or is trying to say something significant. Anyway, if you prefer more straightforward and emotional stories you'll like FSN more, if you prefer fancy prose and insanely over the top stuff (both in the realm of action and philosophy) you might like Dies more.

I just realized something about Emiya Shirou. People on /vn/ and other communities don't understand his depth, and what's amazing is that that's written into his character. "Not even once being understood.", a line from his UBW chant, in the future we know he ends up becoming a hero who is never recognized by the general public. He struggles with the desire to be a hero and help others in the face of crushing reality and the knowledge that he'll never be able to bear such a harsh weight but triumphs and continues his belief knowing that the process of attempting to do good regardless is what matters, while also accepting the potential sins of it all.
Nasu is literally a goddamn genius.

WEE Monthly Update #9
Hi Backers,
We have an alpha build ready. However, we'll be using Steam Greenlight to get the anticipated final episode out to everyone. Backers will still get early access before the general public. We refrained from explaining plot points for episode.02 and episode.01 so there aren't any spoilers for the Greenlight.
Please give it a vote here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=754721965
Porting of the other two episodes to Unity has started and when we have significant progress to report we'll post a update. We're also in the process of taking the original assets* and having them ready for the 1080P upgrade. We intend to have both the 1080P upgrade and port to release together.
*To reassure everyone, we're not upscaling, the original assets were natively drawn at 3495 x 1966
>we could just put it on steam ourselves
>but we put it on greenlight instead
>pls upvote
さすがdovac
>>153359749
It's definitely the best.
>>153359749
Yes. Nasu crafted not a game, not a "story", but a universe. It's every bit as detailed, every bit as supple and responsive as ours. It's a moving Sistine Chapel ceiling.
>>153359826
So is WEE worth the read?
What about fault? Been meaning to read it too but waiting for it to be fully released
>>153359984
Shirou is a less developed character than Rance.
Prove me wrong
>>153360036
I enjoy it, but it is painful waiting years between releases. It isn't going to appeal to people that only like moe or powerlevels or any other common vn tropes.
>>153359826
Is that the one by the Spice&Wolf author??
>>153360440
Yes.
>>153360036
>So is WEE worth the read?
It is basically simple economics and stocks 101. Is a decent read if that kind of thing interests you and comes with a nice enough story, though if you don't like long exposition and explanations then it may not be for you.

I'm pretty sure now every game not from a major publisher (smallest is probably Paradox) has to go through Greenlight for every title. Before it used to be you only needed to do it once per publisher or needed a minimum sales figure to publish freely (?) but Greenlight changed that stance around a year ago.

Even if these ideas were rendered in beautiful prose (they aren’t – the text has a rhythm, but it’s simply staggered and repetitive, and doesn’t employ the kind of evocative imagery, internal melody, or graceful phrasing that might bring this sort of repetition to life), they still wouldn’t earn this level of continuous re-emphasis. And this trend continues through every other element of the text.

When you pitch thousands to make sure the Kickstarter succeeds, goy.
>>153384147
Yes. And Tae Kim has many funny examples xd. So it is always fun to learn the language

MuvLuv Alternative has a very unfortunate but dedicated fanbase of people who will not shut up about how "masterfully executed" trilogy as a whole is, who will sloppily try to apply elementary political theory in their analyses of Alternative, who will tell you that visual novels are an untouchable art form. Unfortunately, I have the feeling that Subarashiki Hibi is going to have to join this list whenever the English translation comes out. I've already seen far too much unwarranted and poorly formulated praise for it from people that really like to elevate their porno games to the level that I did back then.
>>153384392
It is. Just because Nikola Tesla is an electric Kamen Rider with a mech fighting for justice, while Edison is a literal avatar of Nyarlathotep, which is a very good interpretation of both men (specially that asshole Edison)

Reminder to read everything listed here before attempting to tackle SubaHibi.

t. oatmeal fan who doesn't know anything about history
>>153385661
I read the great majority of that stuff just going through college.
Why do people pretend Subahibi is deep again?
Reminder to learn Spanish and read Cien años de soledad before attempting to tackle SubaHibi.

Muv-Luv is the magnum opus of the huamn race though. It even has eurobeat.

Just fucking man up and read with JEdict, not machine translators. Do you want this machine poop? Skip this window and be a real man.
>>153386664
JEdict won't carry me through Muramasa you faggot.
>>153386662
You know, I disagree with a lot of what Conjueror says, but I'm happy he's a hopeless pervert like the rest of us and wants H in his games.
>>153386903
It's important to recognize that lust is as fundamental to humanity's animal existence as hunger and sleepiness.
So Vita apparently got hacked. You can now pirate games for it
>>153386825
Yes it will. It carried me. Commend JEdict, good carry.
>>153387071
That face is beautiful.
>>153387404
Not as beautiful as yours.

Aaa fuck it. I hate conjueror now.
This nigga serious?

>>153386664
At times like these, my boyfriend liking carrots is a big help? Also, can you comment about the use of と in this case
>>153387801
Creates a clause
>>153387773
What are you mad about exactly?
>>153387962
Island is a kusoge. Definetely not as good as S;G. Baldr SKy>Baldr Force.
>>153388129
bait
if anything kusoge gate should be way lower
>>153388380
Why?
>>153387861
I am always thankful for the JOPs who lurk on here
>>153388643
No problem :D
>>153233729
I assume Harvest Festa is still not translated, is my low level japenese enough for something like this?
>>153388938
Low-level Japanese isn't enough for anything but studying to get better
>>153388380
I came in expecting plotge, but it's a fucking moege. Sure, I wouldn't mind it but I don't read moeges. But it was advertised like a sci-fi mystery plotge or whatever. I only knew at the end that the moefags tricked me. T_T.
>>153388938
Sure dude. Grab a texthooker and read this shit.
>>153389068
Nah, I can already understand stuff like pic related
>>153389574
wat game
>>153389652
Le Evenicle
>>153389574
Clarification: Isn't enough for reading a novel solidly, is good enough to sometimes understand lines and to often spent a lot of time looking up kanji/words.
>>153389737
>often spent a lot of time looking up kanji/words
Grab a texthooker you fucker. If you wanna learn at the same time-just dump words in your anki then repeat later.
>>153389574
Is that Akiha
>>153389986
Who?
>>153389914
I'm not the one studying, he is. And text hookers aren't magic. If your Japanese is so bad you have to constantly look up stuff, esp in a fast paced comedy like Harvest Vesta, you're gonna have a bad time, or rather, you're going to be less reading and more studying.
>>153389737
I know, son. I was just memeing.
I actually tried to play a lolige some weeks ago but it didn't turn out too well. Maybe next month
>>153389986
akiha doesn't wear a ribbon you clod
Why did The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt get removed from vndb?
>>153389229
>I don't read moeges
>>>>>it's a "i'm too edgy to read for enjoyment, only for my epeen"
>>153390685
It's too good. It basically puts every other visual novel to shame and those weebs were scared of a Western product taking over vndb
>>153390790
>Moege
>enjoyment
ひとつ選べ
It's suffering.
>>153389068
some VNs are extremely easy to read
>>153391114
>>153391114
>he doesn't enjoy moe
???
are you damaged?
>>153390808
So same reason as E.Y.E.?
>>153391331
The average VN of easy subject matter (see: moege) still takes considerable knowledge to read.
>>153391361
Yeah, my brain chip is damaged and is telling me to rape stuff.
>>153391532
Exactly.
>>153391538
>>153391538
Stop exalting Japanese, it isn't as difficult as you think it is.
>>153391645
I'm not exalting it or anything. You're projecting. I also didn't say it was hard, I said it takes considerable knowledge, because average games use the average vocabulary of Japanese which is tens of thousands of words and two to three thousand kanji. Someone of low skill level, i.e. low vocabulary, low kanji, will not have sufficient knowledge to read any novel except to study from it.
>>153391538
Some can be read with 1k out of 6k if you dont mind checking the dictionary once in a while.
>>153391915
Calm down Quof it's just porn games. Assuming you haven't literally started 2 days ago you can read most games fairly comfortably with a hooker.
>>153391915
Gomenasai...
>>153392002
The thing is, it won't be "once in a while", it'll be quite often for awhile. That's what low skill level is. If he isn't checking the dictionary often, he's not low skill level.
>>153392043
Nothin personnel, kid.
>>153392105
This. I've been reading Tae Kim and it doesn't focus on vocab learning. You get the basic grammar but your lexicon will be nigh zero. If you aren't doing your reps on the side or something you are going to need to look up words for every sentence

What can I expect?

>>153393236

>reading moege
>can't read it after 1 route
Do you complete all routes in moege?
>>153394686
I complete all the girls I like.
>>153394686
I have never read all the routes of a moege in my life. Closest I came was 4/5 routes in Katawa Shoujo
>>153394686
>>153394786
>reading moege
>>153394857
Did you just call Katawa Shoujo a moege
>>153395008
I presumed he's talking about a game where one picks cute girls to date, KS fits the bill for me.
>>153393236
scat and more scat
>>153394686
Yes, always.
>>153394686
I never read all routes of a VN. There is always at least one, usually several, shit characters that have zero appeal.
>>153395423
Da hell, son. You haven't read all of FSN? All of Steins Gate?
>>153395423
>>153395301
Good job.
>>153395301
>>153395615
I remember one guy saying he won't do Heavens Feel because he's not interested in Sakura's character.
>>153395423
I read all routes in plotge.
My only full completed moege was koirizo, because it was short as fuck.
>>153394498
im not familiar with mega
