I was looking forward to buying that in my next trip over. Bloody hell, importing is going to cost me an arm and a leg.

Is EGS down?

>>11407665
DEAD.

>>11407658
it's pretty good, it's sort of slow in that info gets slowly revealed through all routes
a lot of people had problems with the protagonist but I didn't mind him, he's supposed to be a regular guy amidst military stuff bigger than him

Are they based on japanese politicians or something? The guy on the left reminds me of someone.

Monobeno delayed for a month. Dammit.

Thanks to those who suggested video capturing tools in the last thread.

My sides.

Sakurai left Liar-soft.

But the Steampunk series will continue so nobody cares.

>>11409154
god damn.

Sounds like she wanted to do more stuff but liar only kept giving her steam punk stuff, so she decided to go independant.
I guess in the best case, we get more Sakurai works while the steam punk series continues? Not sure how I feel about it having to be Fate stuff, though.

>>11410277
She is going to work in some Type-Moon stuff?
Why is she degrading herself?

>>11410457
Hoshizora Meteor did the same thing too, though.

>>11410457
She's writing a story about Fate/Prototype, which means about Ayaka and King Arthur. It's a perfect match for the kind of stories she usually writes (female main, plenty of historical/mythical references, fantastical elements) so I'm pretty excited to see what she does with the setting actually.

>>11410277
>>11410457
The Fate Prototype novel thing started serialization months ago, she didn't leave Liar-Soft specifically to be able to work on Type-Moon stuff.

The end is nigh.

I didn't want to disrupt the VN thread, yet I've been wanting to post this for a while for a decent lead or answer. I'm from /cgl/, though I've been watching this thread for some time.

I've loved eroges for years, and I'm constantly playing through them and they've been part of my life in a positive way. Art and storytelling are part of my life too, and I'm in college studying game design in hopes that I can make my own proper VNs. I've made a few small ones for my own personal circle and am working on a slightly bigger project, but I wanted to get a better opinion on whether there are chances of ever being hired as a scenario writer or character designer for a Japanese company, being an American female.

I suppose I came here just to see if it'll always be a pipe dream, or if there's some chance of this realistically happening. I always get tempted to write to companies when I see their recruitment pages, although I don't know how that will fare. I'm really looking for anywhere I could start, should I write to them, or what would be helpful.

If this is in the wrong place, I apologize.

>>11410626
There's an English VN general on /vg/, I heard.

Try your luck there.

>>11410626

You have no chance at a Japanese company.

I think your best bet might be to go indie and do OEL stuff. Your only real competition is KS and Christine Love's stuff (which somehow actually makes money?).

>>11410626
Bahi JD became an animator and he is Austrian.
If you are as good with your character design as he is with aniamtion, you probably can land a job. I don't know about an eroge company though, he works for anime companies of course.
>I've loved eroges for years, and I'm constantly playing through them and they've been part of my life in a positive way.
I'm interpreting this as you knowing Japanese, otherwise forget about anything I said.

>>11410629
Thank you.

>>11410630
Thank you, I think I will be considering that route. It sounds the most plausible.

>>11410638
Yes, I do. And thanks, that is true. I think it helps me think of not throwing out all the possiblities there, so definitely considering that it might be possible along the road.

>>11410638
>>11410647

Well, you have to remember that Bahi got where he was by being very enthusiastic and getting a lot of general attention for his work in animation communities. And he spent a lot of time chatting up animators on Twitter/etc.

If you really want to go that route, you've gotta have an impressive body of work and grab some attention + get your name out there with companies. Your chances of success are extremely low regardless, but if you go the OEL route (assuming that you do know Japanese) you could make it a dual language release so you could potentially get attention from Japan too.

>>11410661
Thanks, I'll keep that in mind, I was considering to make my current project dual language since I feel that I'm at a better level now than previously to do it.

And yeah, that's pretty much what I considered at the mentioning of Bahi. He's really pushed his name out there, though it's done plenty for him.

I want to read Sakurai stuff that isn't just the steampunk series, even though the setting has been quite developed over the years.
Even something more otome-ish by her would be exciting, since her romances still haven't disappointed me save for one at least.

>>11410940
Why don't you start with the random nukige she worked on or her earlier stuff with liar-soft like http://vndb.org/v598

>>11410979
I really should get around to reading ruitomo at some point.

>>11410903
Huh, I thought I saw that style recently, thanks. And how game itself?

>>11411016
Moogy (the poster) goes on and on about how complex and hard it is.

>>11411057
Is it complex in that it was written in a really weird way or is it more along the lines of just using lots of weird vocabulary while being overly verbose?

I just 100% yu-no over the past few days, can't believe i didn't play it earlier prob #1 on my list.

Is there any site to consult results from official character popularity polls? After a while, some official sites are a fucking mess and I'm unable to find them.
It's mostly out of curiosity.

How was the cocorofunction trial?

>>11411301
Average, nothing really special about it.
It was kinda enjoyable though.

>>11411047
It's fun.
Far and away the most entertaining of the three non-nukige I've read from August. Heroine customization is always nice, and the fairly wide selection of hair styles doubly so. Game suffers a bit from the dual artist thing it has going on in my opinion, as Iseri's and Fuuka's CGs look quite a bit better than Sena's and Erina's in my opinion.
Iseri is adorable.
Haven't delved into any routes but hers so far but will definitely do Fuuka's afterwards unless the game goes full retard in what I've got remaining of Iseri's route, because dat Rita voice.

A quick question, what's with those underwear/transparency patches that some games seem to have?
I don't mind fapping to the porn, but looking at half-naked sprites the entire game seems a little ridiculous to me.

>>11411362
I assume it's an attempt at guaranteeing that you have an erection and are ready to masturbate at all times. Showing skin but not everything also has it's merits, especially in the breasts department, since you are constantly anticipating the moment that you finally see the naked bodies of your favorite heroines in all their naked glory.

Or people just find it hot, I guess.

>>11411347
It's good when it's fun. Thanks, now donloading trial.

>>11411719
why the trial

>>11411735
Well, trial will be downloaded much faster, and I can read prologue while full game is downloading.

Can't wait, wish every single MC wasn't as scrawny and pale as Murakoshi was, it's like his betaness disregards the mother's genes completely.

>>11411071
If I remember correctly, it was some kind of legal contract thingie with lots of legalese or something. It was like reading a terms of agreement or a work contract.

I just finished the Hime Goto Union trial. The 2 heroines featured are cute (great seiyuu too) and the art is pretty decent, they kinda teased me into wanting to learn more about the other heroines as well. Unfortunately the reverse trap has not been touched upon in more than two scenes, and the last heroine is a mystery other than her actual mystery but I suspect she is one of those "long lost childhood friend" or "childhood promise" heroines. The heroines are the main selling point it feels like.
As for the writing the author goes into tons of detail of everything so it is a bit of a pain to read unless you like that sort of thing. The story itself is decent as it has little slice of life and is more of a hodgepodge of many things but it doesn't take itself that seriously, so far. The MC is neither a bitch nigga, too cool for school, and actually can defend himself/do shit. Too many games have a useless MC that has a cast of heroines who can actually do shit which is really grating.

I never played Taiyou no Promia so I do know this company's track record. It seems they have 4coma up thier site, time to read those.

Asking again just in case.

Did anyone else have issues with Totono crashing all the time? It keeps crashing during the 10 questions part. It doesn't always crash but it does most of the time, I always get to the second one or so before it crashes.

>>11412459
From what I've heard, yes. I never actually got far enough for it to start crashing myself though.

>>11412459
It's probably a feature.

>>11412468
>>11412467
If it's a feature then that's complete bull. I know for a fact I'm getting them all right, even. Thanks for the help, back to trying it is then, I guess.

Whats the difference between a vn and a light novel?
I only played vn's so i dont know anything about light novels. Whats a noteable one?

>>11412459
It crashed occasionally for me when I use the skip function. I had it crashed once during the questions part too. Try to go slowly one click at a time.

>Fuwanovel

>>11412524
Isn't that site just some lesbian slut's blog about promoting piracy or machine translations or something? Why do you care?

>>11412490
Light Novels are novels that are light in wording. Visual Novels are novels with visuals and choices in the story. If you have a good imagination, Light Novels can be pretty fun to read.

>>11412541
Listing site for translated. There are other websites with over 1000 untranslated + translated ones.

So, how long does it take for a typical age game to get uploaded?

I imagine there isn't much cracking required for a game like Chronicles 4 since it's the same engine across the franchise, right?

>>11412874

Man, I've realized that I haven't been able to finish any vn ever since I finished Kyonyuu Fantasy 2. Anyone bored looking for something different to read, I whole heartedly recommend you to try it out. It's nothing deep or new but everything; music, art, plot, setting, characters, especially the male characters, are very well done.

>>11413363
Is it pretty easy to read? Also seems like a sequel to that is coming out in a month.

>>11413375

It's pretty simple. It's no Griasis or Oretsuba that's for sure.

Unfortunately the FD you're talking about is for the first Kyonyuu Fantasy.

>>11412874
Go to Japan and steal it off the shelf.

Have any of you ever played a game in which you just can't bring yourself to play after finishing the route of one heroine you really like? Like it actually bothers you that you will not chose her and still have to interact with her?

What's her name?

>>11413605

>>11413605

>>11414219

Anyone play Magical Charming?

What's the Steady Mode thing for? It says I've been lovers with my sister for 3 days now. Is there events or something like Love Plus that I'm supposed to be doing? So far all I can tell is she greets me when I start up the game, says goodbye when I leave, and otherwise provides the voice for the system.

Anything else? Sorry the image is kinda crap, I'm on my laptop.

>>11414356
On specific days of the year there are events that happen, these days differ for each character and you can manipulate them with your PC date settings. They can be easily found in several walkthroughs out there.

Also obviously there's the route for each girl once you date them, but I doubt that's what you're asking for.

>>11414567
Ahhhhh, thanks. Yeah I did her route after we confessed and kissed at the 'end' of the game. I just don't want to break up with her to start another route unless I know what happens first.

>>11414578
There's no penalties for changing the girl you're going steady with except for a sad voice when you do so, so there's no need to worry about that. You can switch back and forth to your heart's desire.

Would you clean her filthy pussy?

>>11414650

I'm interested in reading コミュ, but I can't find jack shit about it since EGS is down.
Is it any good?

>>11414730
>>11414734
Are you masochists?
You need to grab her. Hold her tight. Shove the little paper deep inside. Deep enough that she would need to hold herself in order to not make any noise.. but she can't, because you put it in so deep she can't hold it. She moans, louder and more frequently. You can tell she likes. You can tell how intense she feels. You can feel how her body temperature goes up.. you can feel how, in moments, a waterfall will come out from her tiny little cunt. It will be such a great sensation that it will immobilize her until after the seventh period.

>>11414791

>>11414791
>Are you masochists?
well, yes

>>11414786
It's alright, a story about how a group of people would deal with being able to summon digimon irl and being forced to do it together, but the writer waxes heavily on morals, justice, power corruption and similar, so if you can't stand that stuff it'll be kinda shit
two routes out of 5 are also pretty much unimportant

>>11415448
Why would a developer who's working for free pay hosting?

>>11415450
Oh I assumed you meant running the site.

>>11415454
"Take over development." Is the owner planning to leave the site like it is forever? Adding seiyuu and creators seems like the next logical step.

After my third play through in Kamidori there are still some missing cgs. If this game wasn't so time consuming I would try to get them without asking here.

My Yuela is level 61 after resetting her level once and I've got all her armors.

>>11415457
>logical
Exactly. Better add a preferred underwear section or a vocal songs lyrics section instead.

>>11415457
Anyone who cares about seiyuu use beautyplanets, what they need is a writer database.

>>11415461
>resetting levels
why

>>11415472
If looking at other sites is fine then you can just look at getchu for writers. So I guess that means adding useless shit is the right idea afterall.

Why hasn't phantom been uploaded yet? I don't want to play the shitty version.

>>11415495
Getchu is not all encompassing or reliable. It doesn't take into account aliases for one.

>>11415504
You need to realize that the current situation is pretty shitty, the Japanese don't upload as much stuff as they used to, thanks to the new laws (and it's gonna get worse from now on). There's not enough uploaders to cover everything coming out and it looks like the active ones are more interested in nukige than anything; it's not like you can count on them to upload things they don't want to buy. Re-releases are kinda low priority anyway.

>>11415540
>and it's gonna get worse from now on
What do you mean? Are they going to crack down on even more uploaders? It's bad enough we have to wait 6 months for some games now.

>>11415548
Japan is a backwards shithole in some regards. Copyright is one them.

>>11415548
Okay, I might be a little too hasty to say that, but you can't expect new uploaders to suddenly pop out of nowhere (unless they are from some other Asian country).

We need to get some Scene uploaders interested in eroge.

>>11415566
They're fags. How about we just learn to wait?

>>11415568
I'd wait more patiently if I were sure that the games I want are going to be uploaded someday. Then again, announcing your future purchases might make it easier to track you down, so I can't blame the uploaders. At least 2djgame deliver everything on their list.

My heart is so warm right now it could melt.
Really, really liked this route as a whole, Umi was perfect and her development with Wataru really well done, always pulled a twist to what I expected and integrated the sex scenes particularly well.
Kinda regret doing her first since the route goes lengths on how they both loved each other for years but can't be together because issues.
So incredibly sweet, hope the other routes manage to be like this, left me feeling healed.

Out of curiosity, around how long is the common route in itsusora?

>>11415965
It's really standard in size, so about 4 hours I guess, the ending itself is pretty... evident.

>>11415879
If you've read Umi's route, then you should read Rina's route last. The other routes are sub par compared to these two routes.

>>11415879
I'm probably going to get shit for this but I hope maruto writes something like konyaku again before he retires.

>>11415996
Did Maruto only start getting somewhat consistent by damekoi or something? It's a shame, because I really liked the cast.
At least none of the routes look as potentially bad as chocolat's.

>>11416030
I would like it too, or at least a game really low on drama and more romcom focused, I can actually go through those more than once if I feel like it.

>>11416054
>>11416033
>>11416030

Maruto is too busy cashing in on LNs. He left WA2 as his magnum opus. He'll never write another game again. Just look at Taiyou no Ko.

So apparently WA2 is pretty good, but what about its predecessor?

Finished Gunjou no Sora wo Koete. I found it to be extremely satisfactory. Though I had a general idea of what to expect of the novel beforehand, I didn't expect such drama, and it had one of the most well-written drama I've read in eroge. It had its flaws, but it had such a complicated and thought-out setting/scenario, and I liked how the characters changed as routes progressed. Also, the OP was godly.
I'll probably continue reading through my backlog, or try some other games by 早狩武志.

>>11418259
From what's been said here it's mediocre at best.

>>11418351
I loved the game myself, how did you feel about the ending?

>>11418367
The entire ending sequence was spectacular in my opinion; it posed a question that challenged all of the character route endings and gave me something to think about. I think it was the best way to end it, but one part of me still wants an epilogue.

>>11418407
Yeah after thinking about it I felt the same. I kind of had to ask because it seemed like such a love or hate thing

>>11418259
Speaking of that. I can't seem to find the old Windows version anywhere. If only for curiosity, it's still frustrating to be unable to find something.

>>11418441
I do sort of understand that the game may seem to lack some sort of theme or feel incomplete due to the the lack of a conclusion, but as an open ending it was nicely executed in my opinion.

>>11418504
I have a Korean patched version, but trying to get the sound working on the Japanese version is quite complicated(there is a Japanese exe that works but without bgm.) I could upload it tomorrow if you want, but I'd keep looking for it.

>>11418819
Korean would be useless to me sadly. Is it one of those games that's a pain to run on modern Windows? Would it work better through a Win98 VM or DOSbox/Win95?

Any recommendations for VNs with good teacher heroines?

>>11418838
The one I have works on XP and 7, not sure how it would do in older versions of Windows. And I meant that there is a file in my game folder that probably was the original exe file that had to be patched from Japanese. When I run it, the Japanese version runs without bgm. The program that acts as a medium to play music is in Korean, which is probably the reason why everything starts to crash if you want to play the game in Japanese using the audio patch since both prgorams need the unicode language thing set to their respective languages to work. I'm sure there is an alternative program or something, but imo you're better off finding the original version... I'll try to make it work anyhow, I've wanted to play this for some time too.

Any recommendations for VNs with teacher heroines? I tried searching teacher heroine tag on vndb, but couldn't find anything that looked interesting.

>>11418960
Oh, those types of things are always interesting.
I'll keep on looking and post back though, yeah.
http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B002KQBI6C
It's on Japanese Amazon. But I've never bought from there. Don't know their policies on foreign shipping, and I'd rather not pay for a 10-15 year old game from anything other than the original author/s.

>>11418981
Yeah, no they're all shit. Japan doesn't like girls over 18.

>>11418981
Damekoi has a teacher heroine, but the main character is not a student though.

Seriously, there are 3 NTR games I've played that aren't shit, one of which is still magical penis (Kanojo wa Gatenkei) and the other two aren't even really NTR games (Choukou Sennin Haruka and Oyako Rankan).

anyone played seven bridge here? I'm considering picking it up this month

So uh, I don't know moonspeak and I've only played about 3 VNs. Are there any recommended ones?

Heh, the only ones I've played on that chart are Yume Miru Kurusi and Sengoku Rance.

I just don't like the popular stuff

Nukige are not good. I also don't like to share my women with other men like a fag.

>>11421021
why do you read VNs if you don't like nukige?

>>11421024
For the plot of course. Don't ask silly questions please.

>>11421018
lol we got an eroge veteran right here

he's played ten eroge we should look up to him

>>11421018
I do like popular stuff. But very few on that list could hold my attention much. Started 8-10 of them and only finished 1.

>>11421032

HELL yeah. Requires an account, but there's loads of shit on the tracker anyways.

>>11421050
Play itsusora. It's a pretty good moege.

>>11421055
Great. Nevermind.

>>11421050
But moege ARE popular and are commonly at the top of sales rankings.

If you want true hipster cred, you need to go for the weirder and crazier doujin games that sold a grand total of 3 copies.

>>11421057
Yeah, ok. My favorite VNs are stuff like Tsun na Kanojo Dere na Kanojo, Angel Ring, and Loverable.

Currently playing Magical Charming and oh god I've been having moegasms.

>>11421073
It's the same company as Magical Charming, so be ready for more of the same.

>>11421071
I'm actually the opposite of hipster, I'm a weenie faggot who loves overly cute shit. Hell I think my favorite VN of all time is Galaxy Angel.

I agree that moege are great and all, but you don't need to blog here. That's what /vg/ is for.

>>11421073
I've been meaning to play Magical Charming since しげた worked on it. Is there any plot involved or is it strictly a moege?

>>11422193
Moege routes, plot-worthy true route.

>>11422200
Sounds good to me.

I'm also wanting to play Magical Charming and Hoshi no Ne Sanctuary.

I love imouto. How are the imouto in these?

>>11422315
Imouto is pretty good in the latter, but her route is absolute garbage.

>>11422459
Damn, I see. Thanks.
Are the rest of the routes worth it at least?

>>11422507
I thought Hisui's and Yomi's routes were decent enough.

>>11421057

How much fighting is there in Itsu Sora?

>>11422802
Quite.

>>11422802
Don't read it if that's all you're after.

>>11422818

If I want to read it, what should I be after then?

>>11422824
Shumon's writing; lots and lots of wordplays, fantasy drama and mysteries plus some pretty good humor and two of the heroines are really awesome. I didn't find the game as great as Asairo but it's still a worthwhile read.

I just finished Korone's first loop and while I really like her I just don't like any of the other heroines. I don't want to go through more Nodoka or god forbid Inori.

Is there much payoff? I am liking the MC is just chill about the whole situation and not going full emo.

>>11422315
Hoshi no ne sanctuary is probably the worst moege I`ve read in a while, I did Octavius and Imouto route and both were pretty meh, Octavius was your typical I`m rich your poor route the other doesn`t even worth being mentioned.

Dunno about the other. The best moege, that I played, from last month is ガールズbeアンビシャス！

>>11422824
Great heroines, very good writing, and a very intricate story.

Hey /jp/ I just finished my 4th moege in a row, PriministAr, now I'm looking for something more serious to read, what are the tittle that you anons recommend based in their scenario/plot released recently ? I was thinking in なつくもゆるる, but I don't know, I'm not much into lolis, but if the scenario is really good I'll give a try..

>All I can read is moege
You'll probably give up at the first sword fight 5 minutes into the game, if not at the title screen.
Try a more gradual approach, there's a lot of good eroge that are more approachable for someone coming from moege (Grisaia series, Steampunk series, IM series, ML series, BaldrSky come to mind) and that will introduce you to certain terminology a little bit more gradually than Muramasa (it won't be sufficient, but still better than nothing).
Remember that it took 50 hours for 80 people and from more than 50 to more than 100 hours for over 90 people on EGS. I think I've spent at least 80 hours on it too.
As the other anon has said, the plot isn't really difficult to follow, but I've seen people here who missed blatant parts of it so...

there was a vn called something like this my mother turned to a 16 year old teenager. a link to the data would be nice

>>11424813
Of those, I would think that the steampunk series would probably be the best to start with. While it may use some weird terminology, Sakurai usually uses pretty simple sentences, so it probably wouldn't be that hard to get through, and you'll probably start getting used to less common words.

>>11424855
Right, and she also uses repetition a lot as part of her storytelling to the point where some sentences remain stuck in your head, which is really helpful. 数式領域展開, etc.

>>11424040

Kyonyuu Fantasy 2 owns bones y'all, OWNS!! 2/3 of the cast are male and they're all voiced with most of them being interesting. The text aren't hard at all so get it if you're not in the middle of reading something else.

Said no one ever.

can you guys suggest me some games which have a great friendship? i dont really understand why but recently no one makes a game which have a great side male character.or more like most of them dont even make a side male character now.i want something like tsuyokiss, where mc have a couple (or at least one) male friend with full trust.

>>11425646
I just said it. I love kanji.

>>11425853
Try last month's Girls Be Ambitious. The protagonist and his merry band of poor people are constantly scheming to annoy the rich people, which is quite entertaining.

>>11425853
Akatsuki no Goei.

>>11425853
maybe clannad?

>>11425886
It was actually half decent? How is the osananajimi

>>11425853
>>11425886
What type of hivemind is this? I'm reading that right now AND was also thinking asking about similar type of games. The osananajimi is the only girl in their group of five.

And it seems I've been suggesting Asairo to a lot of people lately but that game's all about friendship. Although the protagonist is the only male in the central group the male sides also receive some spotlight later in the second chapter and are pretty damn awesome in their own right.

Saihate no IMA also focuses a lot on the entire group and both male friends have big, plot essential roles along with the heroines.

>>11425954
I see two girls.

>>11425890
I think it's fairly good, actually. The focus is on the war between the "Celebs" (the rich people) and the common people, which constantly brings up petty hostilities between the two. The interactions within the protagonist's group of friends give their relationships an authentic feel (they are the kind of highschool buddies who enjoy stirring up trouble and then getting the hell out if they might get caught; I'm not sure how to explain it better, but the way they act is a bit "realistic", for better or for worse) and the game rarely drops the comedy, which is mostly good. If anything makes it worth playing, it's their friendship, which is present throughout the entire game.

The osananajimi, being part of the group, also joins the fun, poking fun at the rest of the crew and also doing her part in annoying the hell out of the Celebs. She's a bit different from the typical childhood friend in that she's more of a regular friend, but you can tell that she and the protagonist have known each other for a long time.

>>11425958

>>11425954
>plot essential roles along with the heroines.
How I wish they didn't all get replaced for ima 5 and one of them killed offscreen. I guess it's the point, but damn
Minami was cool, I guess.

Wearing boy cloths doesn't make you a boy, neither does wearing girl cloths make you a girl. Until I see a penis it is a girl to me.

>>11425974
What if it's a girl with a penis?

>>11425974
I guess you'll always be a girl to me, Anon-chan.

>>11425974
You must be disappointed that so many girls don't get routes.

Why is she trying to take a photo? Doesn't she realize the skirt flip is on the other side?

>>11426372
Mirror.

>>11426372
Mirrors. The context is he and mc sneaked in the rich school wearing their uniform, but they only had one pair, so someone had to wear a female dress, everybody agreed that he would look better than Sena (the orange haired girl >>11425961), so he was kinda forced, anyway, she recognized him and took the photo for blackmail / the sake of it

I don't play routes other than osananajimi routes in most so every other girl might as well be a non-heroine in said games.

How do I become a professional eroge player?
I'm too slow, I spend almost a whole month with any short eroge.
Should I start pressing enter instead of clicking?

>>11426456
Don't think, feel

>>11425341
That's absolutely normal if you read any amount of scifi. What scares me more is a bunch of obscure kanji being used out of the blue with no furigana at all.

>>11425345
So is 神咒神威神楽 going to be the new "fuck you" VN to mention when eop show up after Muramasa gets translated?

Is still worth reading hatsuyuki sakura even if I was spoiled, by vndb, that both Mc and Sakura are ghosts, she's was his bride before dying and he's the physical manifestation of all the ghosts who died in the hotel / ghost child ?

>>11426504
depends on what you want out of it. some of the characters are fun and hatsuyuki is a pretty cool protagonist. I didn't really think the scenario was that great to begin with, though.

>>11426483
I'd rather stick with Asairo and Itsusora as far as that goes, but that would work too.

>>11426538
Hmm, actually I'm already in the ending (?) of the common route (Christmas, Nemu, I mean, Sakuya just showed up by the first time). So far, I don't know what to think about this novel yet, it has a great bgm but I find the rest average... is the scenario weak ?

>>11426483
>Muramasa being translated
Wasn't the project dead since 2011 ?

Also, Albatross

>>11426546
The focus is the characters, not the plot. Also, common route? Bitch please, you're still in the prologue.

>>11426572
Fair enough. So I still have a long way to do the routes ? Is all of them worth reading ? The anon who recommended it to me said I should read only Aya and Sakura.

>>11426404
You forgot no homo.

>>11426581
Don't treat it as a moege. True end or go home.

>>11425964
>>11425961
>>11425954
Okay, game started. When can I change the heroines hairstyles?

>>11426645
halfway through normal route they start giving the options
