2 years!

>>165548187
Only two? Time seems short yet long at the same time.

So how goes swords? Have you guys seen desired elements implemented or anything?

>>165548870
>Have you guys seen desired elements implemented or anything?
They haven't even implemented mass dismantling. Feels like they are planning on spamming new swords instead of thinking on a new type of event or anything.

>>165552117
Is it wrong to think that the continued popularity should have pushed this?

>>165548870
It's the same as always, and I always have something to do now thanks to new swords and lots of event.
It's definitely better now than a year ago.

>tfw he uses all those nyans to imitate a cat begging for headpats
I'm starting to see the light on why pursuing a relationship with Niina was a good thing. Arashi's a nice balance for him. Still, nothing beats Seiji's unusual hilarious explanations for the MC's skinship moves.

>>165556924
Is he clutching his chest like a pure maiden?

Yes I am ashamed for not playing this yet.

>>165556924
Forever wondering what exactly MC is doing during skinship mode. They act like she's stroking their dicks.

>>165554523
Not at all. My guess is that the pocket version is delaying everything they are planning, since they couldn't even make the bead event working in time.

>>165559435
Is it implications because of the rating or are some or the guys pure cherries getting excite?

>>165552117
>instead of thinking on a new type of event
But they are.

>>165565628
>new type
What? All recent events were easier rehashes of their first versions.

>>165565878
Yesterday during the talk event they said they're coming up with a new event.

>>165566387
There was a talk event?
Fuck, was it streamed?

>>165566776
Nope.
Comic natalie and touken kouryaku have reports about it.

Best kouhai.

>>165570473
I've only played one route of Dmmd two years ago and still haven't gotten around to the other routes.

Anyone else have a problems being interested in other routes once you've finished one?

>>165575309
Only if the game isn't very good.

>>165575309
Happens to me often. Even if I enjoy a game, after a route or two I might begin to lose momentum and I start feeling the temptation to play one of the many new games I have waiting for me.

>>165576283
If you begin to lose momentum then it's either not a very good game.

>>165575309
That makes it even worse. I'm just an anal faggot when it comes to not clearing. Only doing this will allow me to stop thinking about it.

>>165571063
>It's a flirtatious /fa/ fuccboi
That's what made me hesitant in the first place. His interactions with Seiji especially about fashion were the best after I got to know him better. Also, while the rest of the guys seem to be on the verge of exploding/holding back after an intense skinship session, he managed to give punishment to Bambi afterwards. Sort of reminds me of what Himuro did.

>>165576875
For me that'd mean every game I've played up to now isn't a very good game.

>>165577069
If you have a huge backlog of /blog/ shit I wouldn't be surprised.

>>165575309
If I like the game in general and/or the mc and side-characters I'll usually go for 100% even if some guys don't interest me. If at some point I realize I'm just not enjoying myself I'll drop it and not look back.

>>165576875
I get burned out on games I like too, even after doing multiple routes in a row. It's like being in bed with the girl of your dreams but ejaculating prematurely.

If it's a plotge and I like it then I have no problem completing it.
If it's not a plotge or I'm not enjoying it then might as well drop it.

Sakurai sword when?

>>165575309
If I really like one guy's route it can happen that I'll lose the motivation for a while to play other guys' routes.

>>165588991
Thanks, but isn't that for 7-3? 7-4 doesn't have branches. And I can't read japanese, yet.

>>165591371
Actually, I forgot to add that I'm just trying to level them up. Guess my only choice is going back to 7-1 if I don't want to spend too much resources.

He needs someone to be his sword until he can become sword strong himself, for it is true that he must endure this. Godspeed.

How did Touken Ranbu completely get away with its plagiarism scandal?

>>165596408
Same way YoI got away with it.
Hint: Most people don't care that much.

>>165596408
The same way Idolish 7 did

>>165596408
I don't remember too well. In the end they just changed stuff and moved on.
Kumita got the worst of it, deleted her twitter, and hasn't done anything as a fan for the game ever since. Shit sucks, she was my favorite artist.

>>165596408
I'm lucky that I never cared for the swords involved and can just avoid the most obvious ones with no effect on my enjoyment.

And it's not like the company knew they were being handed plagiarized stuff and didn't ignore the problem when people found it.

>>165598152
>the swords involved
Wasn't it just Kashuu? And even he was just loosely based on a photo, to the extent that you can't even call it tracing anymore.
Though it's been a while so I'm not too sure on it.

>>165598557
They looked incredibly similar to the point that it's a blatant rip off. Just doesn't sit well with me that a professional decided to do that to some lesser known person.

There was something about Yasusada as well but whatever it was didn't bug me as much.

>>165598557
kashuu's design is eerily similar to someone's oc

>>165598557
For Kashuu it wasn't just the photos. Supposedly Kumita copied parts of his design from another artist's character. It was an artist she knew or something, I think.
They still shit on her for it feels bad.

>>165599098
If I remember correctly they officially claimed that they had permission to use those photos. But then Kumita said some things that contradicted that or something. Yasusada's was about those pictures too.

>>165599454
>it feels bad
I dunno, unless she got permission to use aspects of that person's design, then it's a pretty shitty thing to do to a fellow illustrator and she should know better. I know most people don't care about illustrators getting screwed over though since they treat them as disposable and underestimate how much work goes into drawing.

>>165596408
I didn't even know that there was something like this. When did this happen and what exactly was it about? I'm barely three months into the game, so I guess it happened before that.

To this day there are still nips that shit on Kazuaki. It seems like those who are okay with it stay and those who aren't leave and move on, but they never truly let that shit go.

>>165600170
It's because professional illustrators should know better when looking for reference photos, and plagiarizing other illustrators especially isn't something easily forgiven from other people who draw.

I don't see the issue with taking the topic seriously.

>>165600120
A lot of the little things + some chara art were traced.
Here's the page nips put together with comparisons
https://sites.google.com/site/sakurabento46/

>>165600003
Personally I don't care about tracing or anything like that so I'm just upset it drove her out of the franchise.

>>165600787
More room for people with talent who don't trace and copy lesser known artist's designs thinking no one will notice.

>>165600120
Happened over a year ago. Some nips made a big drama out of it (see>>165600726), and then the management made some official statement, replaced all traced art (ingame assets) and wrote a long apology that explained how it happened and how they handled it.
To summarize it, they got the assets from other companies, and didn't check those if they were traced. Turns out all the traced assets were those that came from Nitro+.

>>165601096
But it's not like they dumped her. She designed Houchou recently and still does art for the game, all her swords got new 2 year anniversary illustrations. She just doesn't get involved with the game outside or work.
It's not like it was a 1:1 copy anyway. You could argue the same thing with other artists.

>>165600120
It was just stuff like items, but they changed them. Also Kashuu and Yasusada. So besides those two issue is taken care of.

PCs are really not popular in japan

>>165596774
What happened with Idolish 7?

>>165647650
I wouldn't say that's linked to pc being not popular, seeing as they have still pretty good numbers and there're so many other browser games as well. In this case it's just that the app is more convenient, so if you have the choice, app would be the way to go (literally).

>>165652632
Also, that's registered pc users vs app downloads. How many of the app downloads are pc users who just got both is not visible.

>x days later
>>165506676
I'd like to try giving it another go, but not until I get better at drawing. Half because the majority of the appeal of Queen's Blade was the lewd characters getting into lewd situations and half because writequests are unpopular on tgchan. However I'm not in a position financially where I have a bunch of time to dedicate to drawing, so I've been attempting to minmax my writing with the time I do have. (Being completely honest, the last time I drew consistently was 2014.) I'd like to collaborate with other creators on character design in the spirit of the original Queen's Blade, but I'm an internet hermit who doesn't have a bunch of artist friends and a large portion of tgchan creators are furries, so I have no idea what'd happen if I asked them for designs or if they'd want to create non-furry or non-monsterboy designs. I already have two monsterboys somewhat worked out—an original harpy and a werewolf character a tgchan guy drew for me whose design I'm only making costume changes to—making any more would be pushing it for me.

I'm working on other stuff in the meantime. King's Blade isn't too terribly high on the priorities list, but we'll get there sooner or later.

Jesus, I can't believe I actually got him. With enough hard work and DMM points you can clear such events even if you don't have any kiwames. Oodenta is also here, so I'm glad I have participated in this event.

>>165653274
Congrats then!

>>165653458
Thank you! I have a question though: I recently cleared 6-3 and soon I'll clear 6-4, and that means I will finally be able to kiwame my boys. But at what lvl I should be upgrading them? Is lvl 99 is the best lvl to upgrade, or, let's say, 85-90 is enough?

>>165654075
As soon as possible. Low level kiwame is still stronger than Lv99 normal shotas.

I know plenty of people asks about who here actually speaks Japanese but I'm wondering who doesn't speak it and uses a text hooker plus machine translator with relative success? I don't have time to learn Japanese on my own but I'd like to get back into playing VNs with a better translation method this go round.

>>165781565
It got canceled.

>>165781565
It's a garbage method for plotge and anyone who says otherwise doesn't know Japanese and is fooling themselves.

>>165781565
>I don't have time to learn Japanese on my own
yes you do, you're just lazy
everyone has time to set aside 15~20 minutes a day for something unless they're irresponsible

If you read things with machine translation, you forfeit all rights to speak critically about what you're reading.

>>165781565
I will fucking forever mourn this.

>>165781687
That's surprising. I thought Yandere Heaven stuff was fairly popular, enough to warrant an otome game release and rake in more money.

>>165782028
I figured as much

>>165782213
Don't get me wrong, I have 15-20 minutes to devote to it at least 3 times a week, but it just seems with such little devotion to it I won't be learning much anytime soon.

>>165781565
I was under the impression that people only did this for cheap nukige.

>>165783264
Unfortunately not. I've run into quite a number of people reading shit I like with that method, getting shit wrong, and talking shit about it.
A lot of people think it's perfectly acceptable and accurate for some reason, and decide to formulate opinions on what's essentially gibberish.

>>165783264
Not that Anon, but nope. I think I was reversing a CG or something, but I came across a page where someone "read" a full fledged bl VN with a hooker.

What do you expect. Dramatical Murder also has good reviews and that's garbage.

I watched people play it on twitter, and it seems to have some actual comedy but the MC gives me the worst kind of BL MC vibe. Omerta isn't very good either and that's the company's other work.

>>165842483

The staff is the same ones that works on other Karin games, while Omerta had a bunch of writer not from their company.

That level of bluntness is definitely uncommon. If you look up reactions to the article you'll see the fans are surprised by it too.

>>165878206
I'm amazed they're saying it outright but anyone with half a brain has been able to figure that out since the start. It's not just Mao, Trickstar as a whole definitely has that intention whereas half of Knights fall under BL pandering with Izumi. They're smart, covering all bases and purposefully targeting different audiences with different characters.

The english fandom seems to be mad about Mao being specified to be love interest type because they're delusional and somehow convinced themselves that Mao is gay due to band ensembles events. Somehow they can't compute that they can keep shipping their Maoritsu without getting angry and demanding that Mao is gay, look at all this canon 'evidence'. Makoto being obviously straight never stopped anyone from shipping Izumako although considering these types would consider that ship 'promblematic' that's probably not a fact that's on their radar.

How so? I cleared 6-4 with mid-50's tantous and 2 wakis, and 6-2 with even less lvl tantous and 1 uchi. Right now while I wait for my Aizen kiwame I boost next potential tantous for kiwame in 6-2 while farming Akashi, and they are already lvl 71. You should really abuse this campaign while you can, it's perfect chance to boost your tatnous.

>>165924014
Someone enters red at the last node before the boss every time.

>>165924124
I dunno, try to craft more elite troops, give your waki/uchi 2 sheldmen and pray you won't roll too many yaris while clearing the map. Your first and foremost goal is to survive until boss node.

>>165924368
Why suggest shieldmen when the damage yaris do is fixed?

>>165924124
Try equiping ranged troops on your wakis/uchis and hope they kill the yari before the battle starts.

>>165924854
Because I hate ranged strikes killing my troops, it's not against yaris. Also I meant heavy infantry, not elite troops. And I don't believe non-kiwame low lvl swords can kill yaris with ranged strikes, let alone scratch them, but I will also try equiping ranged troops and see how it will go.

What difference would there be between this and the visual fanbook I bought a couple months ago?

>>166014876
Generally artbooks focus on comprehensively compiling the illustrations. Fanbooks would have a selection of illustrations + stuff like character profiles, short stories etc.

That said, it varies a lot depending on company and publisher. There are artbooks with fanbook content as well as fanbooks that are pretty much artbooks. The title doesn't guarantee anything.

Otomate isn't the most consistent with content for their books, so if you're considering getting it I'd wait for reviews.

>>165653013
The mere fact that you're around and thinking about it is awesome. It's been a long ass time, but there were draw Anons who popped up once before. Just put out the word when you're ready and go from there. It was like we only got one day into the quest but it was so much fun. We'll work out a place for the adventure once again.

I'm in a position to hypothetically be penning stuff for a character-route based otome game anywhere from within a few months to this fall.

Problem: I have a minimal amount of experience with the otome genre in particular.

What are some outstanding, high quality titles you gentle people recommend I binge on/get started on to familiarize myself with established tropes and character archetypes? And how far from a given "formula" can a story/character personality go before you're turned off?

>>166080810
no porn, but it looks like they're adding a route.

>>166083126
Assuming you'll be writing in English for a western audience we're probably not the best place to ask for opinions. Most of us are more familiar with Japanese games and fan trends than the English side.

Norn9 and Amnesia are both pretty bad but they have very typical examples of archetypes. Norn9 has a large amount of guys and splits into routes early on, so it might be worth checking out for those points at least. As for something good there's Code Realize, but it has a long common route and not much romance, so maybe not what you're looking for.

There's also Mystic Messenger. Don't know much about it but it's been hugely popular with western fans.

>>166083126
It better be sci-fi or I don't give a shit.
Anyway, if the story is good on its own its probably best if you don't use boring predictable stereotypes.
