How the fuck do you filter exact lines not just one word? Getting tired of this fuck/fix the OP spam.

Nah, only the shitposters who add nothing of value to it. Threads been way better after finally using filters for me.
>>157303094
thanks
Im all up for memes, but this shit is obnoxious
>>157303046
Also don't forget to filter Dovac/Moogy/Chuee.
>>157303046
If you filter the words /moe-ge/ then you're filtering 70% of this thread.
>filtering moeg.e to begin with
Its like you hate fun
>>157303306
Fuck you moemoron. I hope you die painfully, it's what you deserve.
>>157303448
Its ok to dislike something, but these levels of hate for something so innocent is just unhealthy anon.
>>157303448
Someone forgot to take his pills.
>>157303046
I think Reddit would be a better place for you if you're looking for an echochamber.
>>157303478
>innocent
Moe is killing the industry.
All moemorons are enemies of VNs.
>>157303686
Moe is keeping the industry alive, though. Plotgefags don't buy games. Moefriends do.
>>157303046
>the retard who needed to be spoonfed on how to filter is trying to act haughty and condescending
Lmao
>>157303046
You missed
/Nekopara/i
/Slavery/i
/catpanion/i
/chocola/i
Moe is holding moe.ge back, prove me wrong.
Protip: you can't.
>>157303686
Event the kamiges have his dosis of moe (FMorg), don't be retard.
>>157303794
Thanks, added
>>157303794
Nah, he missed one of the most virals; Fate/
>>157303805

>filtering best catgirl
>not filtering the others
I am greatly amused that some people are so easily triggered by best girls.
Sad!
>>157303887
Not him but seriously, fuck off.
You're no better that the one that is spamming Fate/Rise/
>>157303887
> >>157303960
Look above...
>157303972
However garbage Fate and R*se may be, filtering is numerous times more cancerous, especially if you're going to virtue signal and attention whore the thread in regards to it.
It's such a "Look at me! Look at me!" thing to do. No better than those tards on Twitter who need to filter everyone who doesn't agree with them.
>>157304012
what?
>>157304079
t. triggered moebuta
>>157304079
This. I can understand filtering garbage e-celebs, since that's just shitposting, but filtering VNs just because you don't like them is Reddit-tier shit
>>157304092
I hate moege. And the only one triggered here is >>157303046
>>157304131
sure thing triggered moebuta
>>157304083
>haters so dumb they start shitting at each other
keep at it bois
>>157304396
Plotgecucks have always been easily triggered, after all.
It's amusing to watch them writhe.
>>157304396

Are all routes in rewrite as bad as Kortoris?

This.
Let's talk Grisaia.

Amane>Makina> Michiru>Sachi > Yumiko

Makina> Amane> Sachi > Yumiko > Michiru
>157304578
Most people love Grisai*
It's just a very vocal and butthurt minority that don't.
>>157304631
Hers is the second best, so you just have shit taste.
>>157304696
Whose route is the best?
>>157304901
Akane
>>157304631
No, they're worse.
>all this assblast over cute animu grills
you guys....
>>157304939
Only one person is assblast tho
>>157304696
More like hers is the worst and you have bad taste.
>>157304939
But I like cute girls.
I really must update this someday.
>>157303972
But I only bump when the thread is ded, meanwhile he spams.
Why does DCII's fullscreen look like this?
>>157305009
(You)
>>157305039
because it probably looks like shit upscaled. Im fairly sure you can force it trough your GPU settings.
>>157305114

>>157305039

>>157305193
>would of
>>157305241
Do you have the cliff notes for 1? heard it was badly translated.
>>157305313
I never read it, sorry.
Though I recall more than a few of the plot elements from 1 being explained in 2.
>>157305370
That is god-like taste.
>>157305370

>>157305370

>>157305584
She seemed more friend-material than relationship-material anyway
>>157305408

Awwww yeah.
>>157305618

Is Demonbane good? And is the translation good (it's not by Makoto is it)?
>>157305873
>Is Demonbane good?
Yes
>And is the translation good (it's not by Makoto is it)?
It is one of his earlier ones and he's said that it isn't his best work.
Still reads fine though
>>157305873
>Is Demonbane good?
It is, especially if you like Lovecraft.

>he thinks KnS is kamige
Oh lal
>>157306308
If you like reading the third book in a series. Sure?
>>157306180
With these standards pretty soon DC3, Baldr, Maitetsu, Dies Irae, Subahibi, etc... also will be considered as a bunch of kusoges.
Let's make /vn/ a Yuuritopia!
>>157306350
Nearly all of those are kusoge already.
Your standard are too low, moemoron.
>>157306350
All of those ARE kusoge, EOP.
>>157306356
I'd rather make it a PEtopia
>>157306350
>>157306180
Why do best girls never have their own route?
>>157306356
Let's do it! For Yuuritopia!
>>157306350
As soon as there was an announcement for those they become kusoge
Maitetsu was already crap the porn was the only redeeming factor.
>>157306346
I heard their connections aren't that big
>>157306350
Why are DC3 and Maitetsu on the list? They aren't all that great.
>>157306449
Why are you posting a random comment from a random guy who literaly is "nobody"?
>>157306541
None of those titles are great, retarded EOP.
>>157306628
t. EOP
>>157303960
That sentence syntax reminds me of a Trump tweet.
Aha.
>>157306651
t. EOP
>>157306541
I think that tye're pretty good, not as kamiges but above average.
>>157306628
I think that "you" must be "that" EOP because enven in Japan these games are prety well established (like the DC series).
So what is not kusoge then?
>>157306761
Ikikoi is literally the only non-kusoge title.
>>157306761

Fuck, I want to punch the MC in the face every few minutes. Is he any better in Rio's route? Or still an indecisive moron?
It's been a while since I played it, so I'd appreciate a concise answer to this question whose answer I can't quite remember.
When he says he killed his Mentor yet he's not
his Mentor's murderer; is it just part of the wholedifferentiating himself from his sins through different personasthing?
Or was there some mitigating circumstance to his Mentor's death which I'm forgetting?
Post your top VNs 3x3
>>157306914
Poor, pathetic EOP.
>>157306797
>>157306785
Since those are translated they are considered kusoge seeing how this board's standards are
>>157306914
>Fate/HA without Fate/SN
What?
>>157306946
This is an EOP general, fuck off to your /jp/ containment board

I must not bite.
Bait is the mind-killer.
Bait is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face the bait.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the bait has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
>>157306858
Miu a shit.
The MC is good in Rio's route, as in hrs less oblivious
I would like to put all these JOP/EOP shitposters in a cage and see them annihilate each other.
>>157307078
That'd be unfair, it's like putting a majestic lion (JOPs) into a cage with a retarded sheep (EOPs).
Trace, on
>>157307078
Most JOPs while learning Japanese also became adept in the use of a katana. EOPs stand no chance.
I am the bone of my sword
Steel is my body and fire is my blood
>>157307203
Maybe they have learned a little of japanese but still they behavior isn't better than from "these" EOPs.
I don't think any of them are better than the others.
I have created over a thousand blades
Unaware of loss, Nor aware of gain.

Retard.
>>157306858

My whole life was unlimited blade works.
>>157306510
Are you sure? Do you know what means "continuation"?
>>157307529
Do you know what means English?

>>157308073

>>157308146
It's still a Japanese novel retard.
>>157308173
Then he could put the original phrase without cutting the "English-translated" part because this in't the /jp/ board.
Is Yuri Ghosts actually good?
No memes please.
>>157308317
>yuri
Kusoge
>>157308317
It's gay.
Reminder that yuri is a sin.
>>157308317
It has no relevant plot, it depends on if you want to see gay interaction or not.
>>157308317
Waste of holes without being used "properly".
>>157308317
It's very light-hearted, slice-of-life and the few sex scenes are softcore at best. If you want something with drama, try Flowers instead, despite the lackluster translation.
>>157308979
WHOREEEEEEEEEE
Do you guys like yaoi vns?
>>157308317
It's pretty good
>>157307075
>>157307486
Roger. Ugh, impossible to self-insert in Miu's route.
Does anybody have a working download for Yumina the Ethereal? The only torrent on nyaa is pretty dead, and mofu is utterly useless.
I'm gonna playNicola'sroute last and there's nothing you guys can do to stop me.
How do I automatically filter everything I don't like?
>>157310528

Hell no, she was borderline anorexic

This is still my favourite VN.

>>157314134
It would've been kamige if MC got paired up with the glasses girl. Or if it had more glasses girl overall, she had the best voice.

>>157318952
No ones cares what you want, they must care what I want.
>>157318621
Happy end has lots of extra stuff so you always get that version.
>>157313203
Ultimate Boob Wars, Chocolat route.
I think it also happens in the blood-related sister route but I can't remember if she lactates.
There's also at least 1 other translated vn where this happens but I can't remember which one.
>>157319269
So it has everything monobeno has and more?
So if someone were to attempt anything monobeno related TL project-wise they should go for happy end?
>>157319592
>Happy end has lots of extra stuff so you always get that version.
>>157319592
Happy End = Monobeno but with more stuff

>>157320126

>>157320315

>being a fag
I actually had an idea for an Atlas Shrugged visual novel called Alice Shrugged. You play as Alice Taggart in a high school who struggles against the student council that uses its centralized power to regulate and take the profits from Alice's self-funded engineering club and redistributes it to all the other clubs who are a bunch of looters who don't know how to raise funds to support their own clubs. Throughout the story she can date and fall in love with the mysterious rebel John Galt, the handsome foreigner and fellow capitalist Francisco D'Antonio, and her childhood friend Hank Rearden. Alice Shrugged, rated 18+ for nudity, sexual content, violence, alcohol and tobacco use, and controversial subject matter. All ages version available on Steam. Characters who engage in sexual acts are 18+.
>>157321971
>>157321314
not the heroine i'm talking about, it happens with another, if not two.
>>157321971
>>157322168
You'll lose all your souls... Over and over again... Hahahahaha!
>>157321971
I have a better idea, you break the 4th wall at the end of the visual novel and commit sepukku.
How long does the visual novel scene have left?
>>157322775
About 3
>>157322775
2 years

How popular are visual novels compared to anime and manga?
>>157324150
Not nearly as, by default. Anime and manga have dragon ball Z and naruto, VNs are way below that.
>>157324225
What is the Naruto of visual novels?
>>157324253
Fate Stay Night honestly, not in terms of content but in terms of striking popularity
>>157320315
kawaii neko :3
I'm going to learn Japanese!
>>157324279
Steins;Gate is closer.
What is the Finnegans Wake of visual novels?
>>157324474
Steins;gate is weaksauce compared to F/SN's conglomerate
How do we get a bigger market for visual novels? People like manga, so reading isn't the issue. What's the problem here?
>>157324474
Not even close.
>>157324645
Remove the icky porn. It's holding the medium back.
>>157324645
We need more Fate VNs.
Once we have 50~ Fate/* the industry should be saved.
>>157324645
>People like manga, so reading isn't the issue
Reading IS the issue. Manga has ton of art. You see kids reading comic books all the time, you don't see kids reading thick novels like VNs. And by "thick" I mean heavy narration. Same deal for adults. They tend to not like reading too much. Not visual enough. And those that do like reading often prefer literature. In my opinion, the shape of a potential VN's fan life is determined largely by one factor - do they read a VN or do they read a really good book first? If someone's first exposure to good literature is, say, Cross Channel or Hanachirasu, they'll likely stick to VNs and obsess over them. If instead they read something like Hemingway or Dostoevsky, they'll obsess over normal literature.
>>157324731
This.
Leave only the lesbian porn.
>>157324889
nah senpai, i read books all the time. I love Dostoevsky but at the same time I like playing shit like Dracu-Riot and PE.
>>157325034
No you don't.
Will you be reading vns in a decade?
>>157325034
This is merely about general trends, not you in particular. It's a question that dominates the mind - why do so many people so, well, "obsessed" about literary VNs and reading good writers in VNs and so on not just read normal books, especially in English? The only answer is that the first thing you find bites you and brings you in. It's the deal as with why fans of literature tend not to dip their toes into VNs. What gets you first is what gets you.

I suppose you know the difference in target demographics between 6 o'clock anime (for kids) and latenight anime (for young adults).
Visual novels are aimed at the later group too. In term of sales, a bit smaller. We talking about a few thousand of units sold are a great success.
>>157325205
> It's a question that dominates the mind - why do so many people so, well, "obsessed" about literary VNs and reading good writers in VNs and so on not just read normal books, especially in English?
nobody really does this except you're talking about guys like moogy, but he is pretty much a total loser weeb so he doesn't count.
visual novels and books both serve different purposes. With visual novels, the soundtrack and visuals and voice acting can lead to a better experience when it comes to self-inserting and feeling as if you are a participant in the story in the same way choose your own adventure novels kind of work, but books are more about ideas and stories, not about that interactive experience. Some people may just not want that interactive experience and are just fine with reading normal books.
there's also the fact that visual novels are mainly just a niche from japan, but books are published everywhere around the world so the lack of exposure to the medium is a valid reason why people who like literature may not be able to get into visual novels.

I read a lot of literarture and in my opinion visual novels are good when you want more than just words.
That might sound a little obvious, but it's a big deal. Sound effects, art, music, and voice acting add quite a bit to the experience. It's about the collective rather than just the parts.
Also, jerking off. That's always nice too.

It's weird, it's like they make these games specifically for western sales, destroying any sort of quality in said title in the process.
So the visual novel scene is doomed and there's no way to save it?

You learn vocab at the start so you can actually read shit
Once you've built a decently sized vocab pool, you then do individual kanji study to make identifying new words easier, since individual kanji study alone isn't particularly useful on its own
Most of the people bashing on kanji study on /djt/ are talking about the people who do RTK first, the people who do core first are going to be able to read moege within a few months, while the RTK guys have a higher chance of burning out and quitting since they still can't read shit after all that time

Gundam is not good anon. I don't know who told you otherwise.
It might be good if it got rid of any angsty teenage pretentiousness about how the world could work and trying to pass it off as an "adult" theme and just focused on mechas beating the everloving shit out of each other, but no, the angsty teens love their melodrama too much.
There's also the fact that for all their separate universes and spinoffs, all their series boil down to the same 2 plots. WW 2 IN SPACE!!! which is the UC stuff, and convoluted nonsense that ends in world peace by the end of the series AKA the Gundam Wing plot that keeps being recycled into most other Gundam adaptaions (Seed, 00, etc.)
If you think it's good, that's fine. just don't pretend that the series isn't just recycled garbage to the rest of us. Every now and then there's an ok adaptation (Turn A, G-Gundam) that somehow makes the rest of the giant carcass that is the Gundam franchise stay afloat, but even then it's all for naught when the next 10 things they do are nothing more than crusty shit.

Punch her in the face, kick her to subdue her, and run to get a knife and call the police.
What's the appeal of imoutos or imouto routes? Isn't it totally immersion breaking to want to bang your little sister? It completely turns me off to a game to see it have an imouto route, specifically that involves you falling in love and having sex with her. I just don't get it. I'd never want to fuck my little sister.

Can you recommend some games in which there are blood related older sisters that I can romance?
>>157355487
>>157355669
It's not about whether or not you think it's hot or not, it's about how viable it is in reality. Sure, visual novels are allowed to have a certain suspension of disbelief, but when it comes to wanting to fuck my sister it completely crosses the line. I guarantee that if you have a little sister that it has never crossed your mind having sex with her. It makes no sense why the protagonist would want to, or even consider it as a possible option. It's so weird.

assuming you were being sarcastic. It'll be another half month or so until they finalize the sale of the translation, it'll then spend a month building some sort of marketing and last minute quality checks before it goes up for sale.

Yes, it's a torture porn game. The plot is pretty awful but the scenes are great.
>>157364562
nothing has been "officially" announced but things tend to leak out for one reason or another when it comes to the purchasing of fan translations. Anyway the entire reason the translation leak happened is because someone in the project was unsatisfied with how long they were taking or with who they were selling it to.
As of right now it's perfectly fine as a fan translation. It has some typos and minor grammatical structuring errors but it in no way impedes the ability to read it or the enjoyment from it unless you're an English major who has had this shit drilled into their brains.
>>157364904
Huh, I thought they were withholding it for some quality integrity reason or whatnot, not because they were selling it. Guess I'll download it then, thanks.
>>157364904
Unfinished editing is less of an "impediment" and more of a "detriment" in general. The lack of editing won't make it harder to read, it'll just make the whole thing worse in general.
Speaking of Dracu Riot, where did you guys grab your patch? Since they took it down off their site and all.
>>157365075
I grabbed onto my seatbelt to wait for the good patch
>>157365006
I think in this specific case it's a minor annoyance rather than an actual distraction that disrupts everything. Dracu-riot doesn't really have any deep plot points or stories they're trying to tell, it's all pretty simple stuff that is easily conveyed without high level sentence structuring and word choice. Yeah higher quality editing would make it even easier to tell, but in this specific case it's already done well enough for you to fully understand and grasp the story(ies) it's trying to tell and the character relationships it's creating.
Is there anything worse than a modern tsundere?
Wait they're actually trying to sell the Dracu Riot translation? That's why we get so many shills saying "Don't play the leaked translation"?
Damn.
>>157364458

>rather than an actual distraction that disrupts everything.
I didn't say it's a distraction, just that it's a detriment. It's worse.
I think, maybe, the difference between unedited and edited text is something that a lot of people don't understand. Since I keep seeing posts focusing on "minor grammar errors", "typos", and even "grasping the story". While editing does involve fixing errors and typos, the main concern when it comes to reading unedited text is something more nuanced. One could say it's the "enjoyability" of each line. This is hard to describe or quantify in concrete terms, so I think the best think I can do is give an example of what kind of a difference can be made with proper editing.
Unedited: Hearing a noise, I walked with slow speed out into the hallway that was by the room and saw in the hallway a stray named Luna who had probably made the noise.
Edited: Suddenly, I heard a noise outside the room. I slowly walked into the nearby hallway and saw the source before me: Luna, a stray cat.
In both "translations", the same information is conveyed: Noise, slow speed, hallway, stray cat, Luna, is the source. The only real difference is how "enjoyable" it is to read each line, how smoothly and concisely the information is conveyed. I admit this example is exaggerated but it's to highlight how it wasn't really "minor grammatical errors" or "typos" or "information conveyed" that editing really is about (that's QC), it's fixing up the general flow and "enjoyability" of the lines. This becomes a really big deal when the game has 50,000 lines, while each line won't have an unedited TL that bad, the minor improvement of enjoyability throughout the work adds up in a big way.
I have just finished all routes of Steins;Gate, it was good, is there any other big name VNs that use time travel? I am a sucker for that type of thing.

I almost always like childhood friends best too but they always get shafted with the shittiest route for some reason.
Miyako's route was fine, but she wasn't the only childhood friend in that one so it doesn't really count.
>>157374406
Yea I'm not saying it was bad but nobody mentions the gameplay which felt kinda dull or well 'oldschool' I guess. If not for the amusing humour/banter(For me the h-scenes weren't that great either but you know.. ) I would've rated it a lot lower.
>>157375026
What'd you give it? I gave it a 7/10 since it kept me entertained throughout despite having that oldschool combat. I found choosing which skills to be interesting in a meta way, and each of the five characters having a different role in combat, along with being able to hold CTRL to speed up gameplay, made the experience a lot less dull than it otherwise could have. Though, in the end, the combat was too simple and "easy" to really be especially praiseworthy in and of itself.
I have a confession to make.I set my monitor's display to the vn's resolution so it fills the whole screenand I don't even mind the stretching.
>>157375428

Did you lose her because your younger self did something stupid to her that she moves on without you?If so, are you me?
>>157374976
>always get shafted with the shittiest route for some reason
Probably because she already loves the MC from the start, that any drama added to her route feels 'unnecessary padding' unlike other heroines with different traits (Like the protagonist oblivious to her love for a long time that you want to tear your hair out, or the MC did something that she loses her love in him, or something like that ), yet needed because without any drama, the route would be very short and unmemorable. No sane scenario writer would accept 'Main heroine loves a girl -> MC loves her -> They do lovey-dovey stuff -> End' in their VN without adding some spice in it.
>>157375428
Is that not what everyone else does?
>>157375816
I think he means he'll stretch a 4:3 game to fit his 16:9 monitor.
>>157375776
I guess it's mostly the childhood friends that are desperately in love with MC that get the shit routes.
Wanko's and Momoyo's routes were pretty good in Majikoi even though they are childhood friends.
>>157375182
Yea I was surprised at first when even viewing the map was considered as a skill which you had to equip.
The thing with combat though is that it was basically an upgraded rance quest system which I really wasn't a fan of. Or rather there was no restriction to techniques although you do have BP restriction but it was way too easy.
On the other hand having autobattle and everything actually made the story advance much more smoothly which was very nice.
Also many people praised this aspect of it but getting the best gear available in towns and effortlessly taking out everything didn't really appeal to me. I honestly didn't the think the enemies were balanced there really was no challenge.Lack of ero was still a big issue for me although the girls were cureso I'd say somewhere about 6.5-7
