Well, you could say most are in the process of learning, but you know, I still use dictionaries in my native language when reading books. If I had a tool that let me look at dictionary entries in a single second, I would probably use it, because it's handy and doesn't necessarily operate as a crutch.

Does anyone know where can I buy those タペストリ which comes with visual novels? I'd like to buy some of them, but I cant find any place where sells only タペストリ, not games. All I can find is some anime themed タペストリ which I dont care about.

Finishe Semiramis - I will say I am disappointed - the scale is more or a less a
a moral detector rather than a sanity detector where you go extreme/overflow at either end, you get on the Bad End. It has no other real function which is a shame. Given the theme was a little more serious than the average, the meaningful Bad Ends were lacking substance (other Bad ends are just 10 lines like "she disappears, back to my normal life"). The biggest shame is despite the description, MC is just completely undriven/detached, and severely lacking in self analysis/actualization. I had expected the voice in his head would play the part of feedback/analysis to make this supposed corruption more concrete with a sustantial body. This was not to be, and there was very little both in internal dialogue (this was low too) or external with the heroines. Despite being a MC with a face, he feels more empty than the usual MC without a face! Looking at the comment in the Extra section, I can't but help theme/idea is a little too grand to execute, or the writer just lacking ability to do it (may be someone like shumon can, but that's just empty speculation on my part).

Reasonable quality CG/Art, reasonable bgm/voices; this VN lacks romance/harem fluff so there isn't anything to fall back on when the serious stuff failed. I have small regret on the hours spent - 6/10. Well you win some, lose some.

Sure buddy, all routes suck though, IMO too short and lacking content. Touko route: this is the only route she shows she knows about cohabiting of MC and Ami. She decided to move herself away from the childhood friend status by proposing sex after Ami told Touko the the sexual relationship she is in with MC. Touko then finds out the reason why Ami is staying with MC, and to keep the friendship with Ami, she overworked for a few days gathering information. Magically this was enough to solve Ami's problem (this took less than 200 lines). It ends with Ami out to the room next door and Touko in. . I want my hours back.

Doesn't jihad play even in dive1 when you merge both? If that's the case I would recommend opening restoration through a youtube video or something until you reach the fourth route (which would be Dive2) so you don't get bored of the same OP for all six routes.

Both OP plays with the merged Div 1 + 2 install, it switches over to OP2 once you hit chapter 4. Afterward you even get a choice (unlockable for few points) for your preference opening and associated OP. At least that's what I remembered.

This is one of the things that irritated me a lot. While I downloaded Dive 2, I fired up Dive 1 for a while, and instantly fell in love with Restoration. And then installed Dive 2, and boom, Jihad plays even for the Dive 1 routes. It's certainly not a big deal, and I don't think many people would even give a fuck, considering some even skip OPs, but it irked me.

Maybe that was changed in the patches? I played the unpatched version of Dive2+1 and only Jihad OP played for me, though you could unlock Restoration OP much, much later in the free arena mode.

Also speaking of patches make sure to download and apply them for gameplay reasons too. Apparently one of Dive 2's very final boss' abilities gets changed into a much less frustrating version. Normally when he makes the clone he himself turns invisible and is really hard to target. The patches remove the invisibility.

I'm also really interested if anyone has something to recommend.

いたずらっ娘 ~うちの娘にかぎって~ had surprisingly small amount of H-scenes. You can even abstain from actually fucking the twins (though there's at least one unavoidable blowjob H-scene from the other one) and get to a relationship with the neighbor lady. I originally started the game as a quick fap but found myself keep playing simply because the family slice of life was so heartwarming.

Though for the big downsides the game is in 3D and I'm not exaggerating when saying the optimization is utter fucking shit. Frame rate problems even on a relatively strong laptop, few graphical clipping issues and very long loading times between scenes. The twins route ending was also pretty lackluster (didn't play the neighbor or bad end routes so I don't know how those compare) and no one can really recommend the game for stellar writing or anything like that.

Finished Shoin, which I started because I was interested in the meta aspect. What a game. It actually felt like I myself was fighting against the game, to find an end. Can't really talk about the scenario without spoilers, but I loved the way it went batshit insane. Also a refreshing change from the usual love stories.
Negative points to the system, which doesn't let you save anywhere in the game freely. Combined with the hellish difficulty to clear it was one of the most annoying engines I've ever encountered. Must have played through Shoin at least 20 times before I knew for sure end 12 was locked and wasted at least a hundred playthroughs holy fucking shit. I don't regret it though.
Some questions I still have are about Misa's shadow in one of the endings or some minor points, but I couldn't care anymore after the great reveal.

Reading through 4rd Love again, I see that the ones that refer to Yukari as 先生 are the ones written/thought by HInata. It is also implied that the article about her father was decorated as the main article while the article about Akira, which she thought had much more impact, was displayed smaller. She thus wanted an apology from Akira.
Just read a review of Shoin and it says the silhouette couldn't have been Hinata. I am so confused.

Welp.
Waste too fucking much time on this garbage

accident happens, childs genitals are mutilated. Genji raises the boy as a girl. Kinzo dies, then Genji gave a bunch of bombs to the batshit insane tranny with imaginary friends. Tranny then decides to kill everyone and blow up the island, becuase 3 personas love 3 different people, rather than choose (or even let them know), Yasu just opts to kill everyone. Then with a catbox, where these people apparently all exist together. Everyone is happy.

Then tell me Yasu "true motive".
They said at the end of 4ep, that it is a Battler sin, that people are dying on this island.

What Battler done? Made a silly promise to Shannon/Kanon/Beatrice/Whatever but she/he/it stick to this like a deadly serious marriage proposal?
Wasn't this Natsuhi sin, for fucking pushing child from the cliff?
Wasn't this Kinzou sin for literally fucking his daughter?
And yet they said that everything is Battler fault?

Also there are plot holes on every corner, I cant accept, that George is just a beta faggot and never realised, that something is wrong with Shanon. But how Natsuhi and Krauss never realised THAT ONE OF THEY SERVANTS IS NOT EXISTING?
Well fuck, for years there was never moment when they said "hey all servants, I have instructions for all of you, please come here"? How they hired Kanon in the first place, when he is Shanon?

And characters motives are so silly inconsistent. I don't know how Battler could even accept what Yasu done and went "ah ok s-sorry for what I dont, I am perfect ok with you killing my family".
Or for example, Shannon suffered because of false hope, that Battler remember his promise.
On the other hand Battler is telling Ange, that it's better for her to live with false hope, that maybe some of family survived so she should not learn the truth.

this story is fucking mess

This was suppose to be fantasy vs mystery tale, but R07 co-worker who was mostly in charge of mystery aspects (and a big mystery fan general) died shortly after starting Chiru.

Later R07 butchered this half of the story with half assed "answers" and focused on fantasy side. Also he is a nice prick, who I think went too far with mocking his readers, because this whole

Really though I know nobody gives a shit about TE and this is an industry know for delays in general, but this has reached the point of a game that was announced at the very end of 2008, finally got a release date on a different platform 4 years later, and between two versions has had 7 months worth of release date postponements in ~18 months.

Why can't Japanese visual novels look as promising as this one? This literally looks better and more original than anything Japan has produced in the past 10 years. Funny how the only thing you need to do to beat the japs at their own game is not to include any moe cliches and stupid power level wanking. I hope Japan stops making VNs altogether so competent western people can finally bring this medium to a respectable level of quality and spark interest among serious writers and critics. Japanese VN industry really needs to go so that people forget their terrible moe games and rape simulators ever existed. This medium has a lot of potential that only a white man seems to be aware of and be able to fully utilize.

Even after a reinstall? Strange. I do remember having this issue with aku no onna which is another Lune title. Although that one I believe was solved by using another exe provided with the files by girlcelly or doing a reinstall. It's a grey area with Junketsu Megami considering I had no issues with this title's start up.

I'm not sure if this might help or not, but maybe try running the title once with the iso mounted. With Bishop titles you'll get a BSXX error of sorts where the title won't run unless you've run with the iso mounted atleast once after you've installed. Anytime afterwards the error won't pop up. Generally speaking that's an isolated issue with Bishop titles, but I'm curious if that might be a solution to this error or not too.

Those are generally fixed by simply creating a settings profile for the game to run with in the graphics drivers.

How do you guys feel about the following? :

>Third, pick your strategy. If you choose high-difficulty games from the very beginning, you will improve your skills that much faster. However, in exchange, you probably won't get everything on your first playthrough. For action/fantasy VNs this actually makes it fun to come back later and enjoy the game a second time. Also, if you pick a high difficulty game early on and switch to an easier one after, you'll find that the comparatively easy language makes your playthroughs that much more smooth. If you pick a low-difficulty game, you'll probably be able to muddle your way through it with crappy Japanese skills, but at the same time, your skills won't improve that much playing them, if that is one of your goals.

>As an example of first choices, I picked Jingai Makyou and Dies Irae for my first two games, simply because they were in my favorite genre. While I already had a good grasp of Japanese, these were two enormously difficult games to play. When I picked Draculius and Tayutama for my next two games, the difference in the linguistic levels made for an easy playthrough. I plowed through better than a dozen high-level games in the months after that, and I eventually got to the point where I could play most VNs with a speed approaching two thirds of that of my English reading speed.

Is there anyone here who would seriously recommend picking Dies Irae as your first visual novel in Japanese to 'improve your skills'?

While this may be true and it's certainly a big breather to read easy to understand moege after a long chuunifest I could never recommend a complete beginner to try out something like that. At worst it'll end up completely demoralizing them from learning and condition into using the likes of JParser as a complete crutch instead of actually trying to memorize new stuff as they read.

More importantly you'll end up ruining your first experience of the game due to how slow you're going. I also had a long list of "I really want to play these ASAP" games when starting out and it's quite hard to keep motivated with just secondary moege and other easy stuff that doesn't interest you as much. I actually ended up jumping between lot of easier games, never finishing anything due to losing interest before finally picking up something slightly harder that was in my "top wanted" list.

Someone could perhaps recommend games like SubaHibi, Grisaia series, Cartagra or HaruUru to relative beginners who are feeling adventurous, though I strongly suggest steering away from the likes of Masada, Mareni, Romeo or Narahara's stuff before having a much firmer grasp on the language.

This isn't an RPG. You aren't going to gain more XP by reading something beyond what you are capable of. My advice is just choose a VN you want to read, if it's too hard, then come back to it later and choose something else.
Don't read some moege you have no interest in, simply because it is easy. And don't read something where you have to look up every word, yet still can't figure out what the sentence means, just because you think it will 'level' you up faster.
Enjoyment will be what leads you to improve the fastest, and I can't imagine their being much enjoyment in struggling through a difficult VN.

I dont think the "read simple moeges" is working for me. My level is currently that I can understand voiced dialog, need JParser to tell me the readings half of the time because theres still a lot of kanji i dont know I also need to look up quite a few vocabs then.

Finished Tsujidou. The game has a lot of similarities with majikoi, which is a good thing in my case. It doesn't manage to be as good though, because of the MC, who is pretty much a dumb M seigi no mikata Yamato, including the ass fetish(which I enjoy). Also, his face in H-scenes is extremely gay.
The game does manage to be enjoyable though. Minatosoft knows how to do character interactions well, all no character faded out even after going into the individual routes.
The humor was pretty good, and there was no overuse of manzai.
Not to mention the setting, yankee's had been a small fetish of mine after reading the yandere manga.

Finished Suzuka's route in Re:Collect. It really feels more like a FD than a proper sequel despite the 'proper endings'. It was also a bit disappointing that the plot didn't really elaborate the whole poisoning case. Not a real conclusion imo. Looks a bit like Kinugasa had yet again not enough time.

The pacing wasn't great, mainly because the romances felt more like a poor fanservice excuse with tacked on ero, especially in Suzuka's case. That all sounds pretty negative, but I enjoyed it. The character interactions were still fun as always and the new characters entertaining. Too bad there probably won't be any more sequels since a lot of questions remain unsolved.

I wouldn't skip sleeping entirely. That's just hell for memory and energy purposes.
If you really need/want more waking time that badly, then cut some shit out and take a small nap later instead.
Not saying go full polyphasic because that's crazy, but still. You need sleep.

Obviously not, you aren't going to process what your reading if you skip too much sleep.

I actually liked it more than Majikoi. Probably because of Renna.

I don't really agree. I don't think Majikoi was a very good VN, yet I loved Tsujidou.

Can someone please point me in the right direction for a Baldr Sky Dive 2 NoDVD patch? I've been through 4 different torrents with the same corrupt .rar file and a shitload of dead jp DDL links to no avail.

The writer seemed like he had ADD or something, the way it was constantly jumping around and had like no narration. I dunno, I found it irritating for some reason. Other than that, yeah, it was just kind of a mediocre charage with bad art.

Tsujidou has bad art too, but Sakaki seems to be a better writer than Takahiro despite the cooking scenes. Hikoukigumo was cool as well, so I'll be keeping an eye on him.

I'm a moonspeaker. And there are plenty of other redirectors who pretend that they link to /vg/ not because they're elitist assholes but because they're looking out for the poster and it would really be in the poster's best interest to post in /vg/ because no one here could possibly want to talk about anything that isn't flavor of the month moege or chuuni.

As i understand it, these threads exist because most untranslated VNs aren't going to generate enough discussion to justify having a whole thread dedicated to it. If someone wants to talk about a great translated VN that they just played, and is against going to /vg/, then the best thing they can do is make a new thread on /jp/ for it, if one doesn't already exist. You will get more and better discussion that way. If, after being informed of this, the person insists on staying and shit posting, then they deserve any "vitriol" they get. Unless you really enjoy seeing people talk about VNs that you can't read, there is no reason for an EOP to stay here, aside from childish stubbornness.
