Mori Dreamers 2 is mostly an excuse for Madoka lewds. It's still okay, but it's overall just a nice little extra. The main villain is a very big disappointment and in general it felt like it could've been a lot more.

Tokihate is better than Mori Dreamers. Should read that before Mori Dreamers 2 for sure. Otherwise you will get spoiled a little.

Art and sex were good. The writting is very emotional.
But as a NTR game I didn't like it, it had no substance, it had nothing.
Also, no pregnant sex on the pregnancy end.

What eroge is the closest to style/vibe of Persona 5?

>>18392473
Tantei 7, kinda, but it's only good as a nukige.

Artemis Blue has been pretty good. I've just started Chapter 6. I've heard that it apparently loses steam in the later chapters, but no matter how shitty the game gets I think it will still end up being a very memorable experience for me.

I think I will try checking out more games by Inoue Keiji. I've heard Ashita no Yukinojou and it's sequel are both pretty good games and Sousei Kitan Aerial is kind of shitty. I think I'll still end up playing everything by him because I really want to read more of this kind of eroge.

>>18392621
The last part of the 7th chapter is kind of bad, and then the 8th chapter is complete shit. Don't be surprised if finishing will change your mind.

Unexpected development.

>>18393037
>almost equal number of boys and girls
Truly unexpected.

>>18393042
Now the only thing that's missing is the other dudes getting to fuck the girls as well.

>>18393042
That too, especially considering one of the extra guys is pining for one of the heroines, but I mean how the mysterious loli from the beggining just appeared like nothing ever happened.

>>18390839
What's the main theme of Sakura no Mori Dreamers? I don't want spoilers, just a general idea what kind of horror is it and if there's mystery.

>>18392457
Well, what a let down then. Let's hope the next mama waffle game is up to the level.

>>18393067
I have something I would think of as a theme but i think it might hint at spoilers a bit too much

>>18393145
Hit me up in Ctrl+S.

>>18393067

A lot of the common route are little short stories. Basically there's a setting that some kinda ghosts can possess people. Normal people can't see them and they are simply a part of the world. If it happens, the person in question will die soon. That's the way the world works, and completely normal. But there are some red versions of that, those possess people who are generally having very destructive or twisted thoughts, or want to kill someone or similar stuff. In that case the person gets eaten more or less from within and if he or she kills someone, the corpse and anything related to it (i.e. blood) will vanish a short time after the death.
The main cast more or less fights that, which works from within "dreams". It's not quite that straight forward but it should give an idea. This is also where the horror happens.

There's an overall idea that is followed, but that's a spoiler for the prologue I guess. At some point that's going in full force. The horror is over at that point, more or less at least. This is also the biggest mystery part, although the separate chapters have some "what's going on?" as well. In the end the whole work however is much more psychological than anything else. And it works, if you ask me. Unless you want romance. That part... is frankly very unsatisfactory. Not sure if I was the only one who found the routes very lackluster, aside of the main girl's one which finished the main story.

>>18393204
>spoiler for the prologue
Ugh, regarding that, I want to edit the vndb synopsis so that it doesn't spoil it, but I don't really know the best way to go about that. Just deleting the spoiler-y sections seems like it wouldn't work so well since it's a direct quote from some guy's blog, so it should probably be rewritten entirely. It looks like I can actually edit it right now, but wiki people can sometimes get a bit pissy about the editing process.

I was thankfully was able to read the VN without getting spoiled I honestly didn't think it would happen, although the effect was soon dampened but I'm sure many other people have been.

>Not sure if I was the only one who found the routes very lackluster, aside of the main girl's one which finished the main story
I only did Mifuyu and then Kureha Kureha's route was so dumb, like seriously, he comes back and does that and then his motivations were retarded but yeah they weren't too great. The main story was a blast for the most part though.

Noticed something new about the way 消えた世界と月と少女 runs.

The reason why it takes quite some time to start is because it unpacks raw game data into your %temp% folder.

Everything's there easily accessible. Since I'm right at the part where shit's about to get real, I'm not gonna spoil myself.

>>18394230
How big is the script?

Did anything ever come of that VN idea where your amoral parents basically grew you an illegal imouto in a vat because your extant sister needed a heart transplant? I remember seeing some art that looked like they'd moved beyond the concept stage.

>>18394269
sounds like a dumber version of that inosupe game

>>18394269
Isn't that Inochi no Spare?

>>18394269
Inochi no Spare. But the game is really about the teenager love relationship. It barely touches the moral issues of grooming spares.

This looks like the least lolicon-friendly Favorite game in almost a decade. Unless there's a secret loli main heroine

>>18395720
Still need sunglasses to play I see

What the FUCK were the Amakano 2 devs thinking with the opening movie? I usually skip them since they tend to just show you stuff you'll see in the game anyway, but Amakano 2 doesn't even let you skip the OP movie no matter how much you click and press esc. Not only that, but in this unskippable movie, it goes through EACH OF THE HEROINE'S CONFESSION SCENES and shows them confessing to the protagonist! What the fuck?! Way to weaken the impact of the scenes. When I get to them I'm just gonna be like, yeah I already fucking saw this. What were they THINKING?

>>18396049
Nigga Just Walk Away From The Screen Like Nigga Close Your Eyes Haha

>>18396049
you could try deleting the op file or editing it down to 1 sec?

>>18396139
I just tabbed out and waited for it to end, it's not really a big problem. I'm just stunned they would not only make the OP unskippable, but fill it with really bad spoilers too.

>>18391682
I never talked about the full version, smartass.

How is lovely x cation for a first VN? I can read NHK Easy and some manga, but I want to start branching out to more difficult material.

>>18396273
>I can read NHK Easy and some manga
Then you can read it.

>>18394513
That's the one. I guess in the time since I saw that art, forgot about it then remembered it again they actually made the videogame.

>>18396161
>moege heroine confesses to self insert protag
Wow massive spoilers!!!!!!!!!!!

>>18396739
It shows the confession CG and the lines they say. It's not a spoiler as in spoiling a twist, it's a spoiler as in the moment will naturally be weaker having seen it before.

It's sad how few good VN OPs there are. Most really just slap a million CG together and hope that's fine. But if you want CG samples, you click on that on the official website. No need for the PV to spoil more than it needs to. I suppose actually good OPs are quite expensive, but you can still find them in some really unexpected places.

>>18397139

>>18397139
That's fine by me. I just want to play this game in Japanese.
>>18397190
Is Steam a paid website?

Eris's sudden unexplained appearance here was surprising because I thought they banned mobility between the prison and the lower/upper strata except for certain people. Did Sieg get her special permission or something?

Put Fortissimo on hold a couple months ago, but every time I go to finish it, I get too bored to continue and go to read something else. Especially with having to slog through stupid Sakura dere scenes. And I fucking can't stand seeing the word 覚悟 in it anymore. The third (or was it 4th?) OP spoiled me on Sakura vs Suzushiro, which I expect will actually happen, so not looking forward to that either. I think I'm over 80% done with Sakura's route though, so I'll get it over with eventually. Satomura vs Momiji gave me a good laugh though.

>>18397132

Also I'm almost at the very end of the trial and so far some information mentioned on the game's official site wasn't even hinted at, so I'd say it's full of spoilers.

Replaying the first Utawarerumono game after having played the second and third game is quite interesting. There are a lot of small details that I missed or didn't deem important back then, and they aren't even really mentioned in the anime (I re-watched the anime before playing 2 and 3, but didn't replay the first game, I last played it ages ago).

For example a single line mentions that there is a "bypass" in Iceman's mask that they haven't understood yet, it's probably the giant transformation feature. Also they mention that they adapted the masks to decoys, and Hien and Haenkua were supposedly wearing masks during fights. There is one mention that over time it puts burden on them and drives them crazy, kind of foreshadowing how the masks erode the soul in the sequels.
In the PSP version that I played just now, I think this wasn't in the PC version back when I played it, after losing her "child" Urtori takes over a home for orphaned children, which also comes back in the third game during the visit to Tuskur.
And of course all the talk about the onvitaikayan, tatari, etc make a lot more sense now.

How should I go about removing the english translation in mirrormoon's fate/stay night without messing with the voice patch as well ?

I bought Mink's Big Set Sweet from DMM

http://dlsoft.dmm.co.jp/detail/minkm_0023pack/?dmmref=sk51w2f7

I played Sister Scheme (for which I bought the set) can't get Sister Scheme 2 to work but I'll figure that out on my own I think. Played Tsukue Otome about a girl who ties herself up to her desk hoping her teacher finds her and rapes her because she has a crush on him and a bondage fetish apparently and finally started Maid in Shigoto today which is also a bit more rapey than I expected from a set with 'sweet' in the title. YOU are the maids. One of the Akihabara giving out tissues kind of maids, not working for a master who rapes you kind of maids.

So, anything else in the set any good? Anything someone is desperate for me to share? I can't get Sister Scheme 2 to work but it should be easy enough to find anyway.

>>18405135
仮想=現実 HD was never shared
ama futa is on my backlog and the yakin byoutou series is alright but i never looked into the ren no koi prequel or whatever that series is

Waiting warmly.

So, Tamamo's route in Daitoshokan is pretty damn retarded. The set-up feels completely forced and the relationship between Kakei and her feels completely unnatural. Seriously, I think i've read nukige that were better and building relationships than this. I wonder why most moege don't just end the game on the common route considering that it's normally the best part.

I'm considering dropping this and trying a different route since this one is complete shit.

>>18406673

Funny how that's the only route I never read. Didn't really like her.

>>18405472
I've been unable to download any of my games from DMM today. It just keeps freezing my browser.

>>18405691
Isn't that literally the regular PC version of WA2?
I guess it's good for the drama CD's though

What's a good Rance game to start out with? The first one?

>>18407756
01 is best, yeah. Note that 01/02/03 are remakes of the original 1/2/3.
01 -> 02 -> 03 -> 4 (old and is skippable if you want, same for 4.1 and 4.2. an 04 is planned to be made) - > 5D (also skippable) -> 6 -> Sengoku -> Quest -> 9 -> X
Kichikuou is a non-canon game that's basically a prototype for Rance X. A lot of it got retconned (characters being rewritten for example) and it's somewhat spoilerly for X, so play it after X if at all. It's a fun game so it's worth playing, though.

>>18407787
Cool thank you, I will probably pick up 01 and go from there if I like the game.

Can I jump into WA2 blind, or should I use a walkthrough? How "hard" is it to get every ending?

Ok, I give. My sister scheme 2 file is just a file with no way to open it. I tried downloading it from DMM in 1 part and I tried downloading it from DMM in 7 parts and combine them. I'm not a computer genius. Winrar won't open it. I tried opening it up in SoftDenchi, DMMs typical copy protection program and the file literally vanished from the folder forcing me to download it again (which was weird and the old copy is probably floating somewhere taking up space). Nothing on DMMs help page lists this problem, it only discusses how to unzip and merge files.

It's just a damned useless file. What the hell am I supposed to do with this thing?

>>18408574
Got it, Winrar just didn't recognize it. So I had to convince it that it was there.

Silliness

>>18408621
make sure the file downloaded completely, looks like it didn't finish or your browser failed to convert it to the correct filetype after it finished. might consider trying another browser or jdownloader if the problem persists

Do you also buy eroge or do you just download them illegally?

>>18408848
I preorder some for the bonuses, and buy others if I end up liking them.

>>18408848
I used to, but after getting burned by 地雷s several times, I decided to pirate first and just buy the ones I end up really liking. I'll still preorder from a few of my favorite writers, though.

>>18410616
I read it after seeing it mentioned here. I really wish it was a random game I pucked up without knowing what it's about.

please stop translating muramasa for a few years until I can and have read it, thanks.

best regards, DJT

>>18408639
It extracted into that, the original file is split into 7 parts. It's just really weird. I don't expect something like that from professionals. Not because professionals don't make mistakes but because I expect it to have been reported by now.

>>18410632
I went into it blind which is the best way to play it.

That scene where he fucks Reika's brains out on his daughter's bed while dressed as his daughter then she begs for a rest before he ignores her, picks her up, shoves her against the wall, and fucks her till he's satisfied is so much better before you realize who she is. Then you find out and FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

Or going back and replaying the scene where he divorces his wife and marries Reika before knowing who she is

Seriously, this game was gold. Yeah, I know some people figured out on their own but I didn't and it was so much better for it.

>>18410898
I feel like "figuring it out" wasn't really something many people did, since the game doesn't present itself as something TO be figured out or a mystery or anything. I guess there are hints, sort of? It's basic and since the game does give you choices to keep indulging in your daughter or not, the idea that they're separate people isn't one that should come easily.

Furthermore they handle the reveal surprisingly well, since it's like this paranoid day or two where the protagonist is totally worried he has a stalker or some other crazy shit is happening

>>18410616
What's so special about it?

>>18411021
It's just a fun ride for a nukige. Found it when looking for father/daughter incest. Basically the game has you choose between not wanting to bone your daughter by boning someone else (who is willing to fuck you because SHE wants to fuck HER dad), or going for it anyway.

>>18410979
>the idea that they're separate people isn't one that should come easily.

When is Eushully gonna announce their next game? It's taking quite some time now.

So far. I like them all except for Nanoha. Subject to change, obviously.

>>18412939
Honestly I liked all of them when I got to their routes. It's one of the few games where none of the characters annoyed me. Except Gilbert, of course, fuck him.

>>18412964

Nanoha is annoying at the beginning of her route, and outside of that, she's really boring. It's not to the level where I just can't tolerate scenes with her in them, but I definitely don't like her.

Also, I know that 2D is not 3D, but I can't completely disassociate what excessive crying means with the real thing. It's a way of holding people, especially men, hostage until they get what they want. It's basically a form of emotional abuse.

if you really insist on being a linuxfag then just use a windows VM for anything that doesn't work correctly in wine, your OS will have less overhead running one anyway

>>18413985
Thanks man.

>>18413991
In my experience, trying to get VNs working under a Windows VM is just as unreliable as trying to get them working under Wine.

Also, assuming by "overhead" you mean "use of system resources", VMs have way more overhead than things run in Wine. My fans go mental just from running a VM alone, and my computer shuts itself down due to overheating if I try to play newer VNs in one. With Wine, assuming the VN will actually work in the first place, my fans won't make any noticeable increase in noise output from running it.

>>18414148
maybe i'm lucky but i've tried numerous games under an XP VM and never had issues, not even with 3d games. doing so doesn't even strain my cpu so i don't know what to tell you

>>18414481
>43% CPU usage
>12.1 GB RAM usage
Compare that to the ~10% CPU usage and 2.4% RAM usage that I experience with Wine.

I don't even have 12GB of RAM, and I'm guessing your CPU is also quite a bit better than mine as well, which is likely why your PC is able to cope (albeit with considerable resource usage).

>>18414481

Death to jaggies!

>>18414711
anon i was running a 3d game as an extreme example, not to be representative of normal usage. i have tons of programs running in the background that are using some CPU and 10.4gb RAM before this pic was taken and the VM is set to have 1GB RAM so you do the math. for running a simple VN i think this is a good result, you could probably even get away with only 500MB RAM for the VM too

>>18414920
I love the "I'm native Japanese" look you're going for with the language bar there.

No matter how much I tried to hook Ao No Kanata no Four Rhythm to INTVNR, it treats it like I haven't. This is fucking annoying. Google is less than helpful too. AoKana shouldn't have a hook code, what the fuck am I doing wrong?

>>18414148
I've had about a 20% success rate with VNs under Wine, and a >95% success rate with VMware Player. As long as you have hardware acceleration enabled and adequate system resources, you shouldn't run into many issues. Yeah, the overhead is higher for sure, but I had no problem running WinXP virtualized on my old laptop with 4GB of RAM.

>>18413887
I'm actually in the process of writing up a guide over on AnimeBytes. My process works for every single game I've tried so far (so roughly 20 or so games, all recent shit)

>>18414920
>6% CPU usage for a VM
What the fuck? Is my PC really just that much of a toaster? I can't imagine that VirtualBox is that much worse than whatever program it is you're using, and I don't know how else to explain this.

>>18414971
>Yeah, the overhead is higher for sure, but I had no problem running WinXP virtualized on my old laptop with 4GB of RAM.
My PC is getting on in years now (I think it's about 6 years old) but I can't imagine it's worse than your laptop. Now I'm even more confused. Why are VMs running so poorly on my system?

does this even need an argument? girls can't be a bit vulnerable without you thinking they're out to get you? that sounds perfectly normal to you?

>>18415239

>any time any form of criticism or wrong doing on their part comes up
>WAAAAAAAH

That's not vulnerability. That's attempting to shame you out of holding them accountable.

They might not be doing it consciously, mind you, but it's definitely a pattern formed by realizing that the situation turns out more favorably for them if they start balling when things aren't going their way.

>>18415058
>writing up a guide over on AnimeBytes
If you are willing to put this much work into it, put it on some website that's not a closed community. Especially if it's about something like Linux, which is all about open communities.

>>18413887
It used to be really problematic but now I don't have issues 70%+ of the time. Kirikiri-based engines work the best in my experience. I use wine-staging with CSMT enabled which usually fixes some GDI issues. You can also use winetricks to install Microsoft's DirectX if you have graphic issues, ffmpeg+quartz if you have issues with video, etc. There are often workarounds, but there are still are games that simply refuse to start at all. It depends on the engine/company. Another issue is the overhead; I get considerable CPU usage in games that use near 0% in Windows.

VM is a better option although Virtualbox isn't very good. VMware is the only good choice (although proprietary). QEMU+KVM is also very good (and open source) but it seems it doesn't handle video well yet (which we need of course) unless you do passthrough.

>>18414966

Given that I have Aokana installed (not yet played though), I figured I'd test this. It doesn't need a hook code. So, just make sure you have the newest version available. Or, that you aren't on win10, which could always be a problem as well.

>>18415253

Dude, you are talking about Badr Sky. That's not exactly a game, where characters behave naturally. Otherwise people would take pity on Gilbert, who likes to die in ways you'd give him the darwin award if he'd be real, and not scream at him and get all hot and bothered. Just an example. The writer isn't the best. Don't think too much about it. I'm sure there are actually characters out there, written in ways where it's really done with a purpose. If you see any of that in Baldr Sky, it's probably just something else massively exaggerated by the writer.

Trying to play それは舞い散る桜のように and it's incredibly light on music. I think only 2 brief songs played on the first day. Voice acting and sound effects are working though. Is this normal or did something break?

The original release has music as CD-DA. Generally this doesn't work very will with newer operating systems, mainly the songs don't loop, leading to what you're describing.

Hmm, either I can't figure this out or it doesn't change anything. The 2 songs that did play looped fine though.

>>18416242
Nevermind. played a little further into the second day and a song eventually plays just fine. I'm not used to this much quiet time in between songs in games.

>>18416294
Are you playing the 完全版 rerelease? That would have songs just fine.

>>18416303
Isn't that version generally considered inferior? I know you can skip the new routes but I heard they mixed in a bunch of new content into the old stuff too.

>>18416314
Apparently so.

Better read Zero.

How should I play eroge if my computer is in a room frequented by my parents? Should I just move my computer? It's been in that same spot ever since I've had a computer. I've been fine with games that have few sex scenes (or predictably placed ones), since I can just mirror the screen to my notebook each time, but it's a bit laggy, so I wouldn't want to play whole games that way.

>>18418717
Is it worth it? I heard it's much worse than Dive 1-2

>>18418750
Rearrange or turn your desk so that the screen faces the wall.

>>18418750
Stop being a virgin loser and move out already.

>>18418750

>>18417214

While it definitely makes good sense to start with a text hooker, I think that you want to ditch it as soon as you're above JLPT N3 level or so.

My experience with them is that they're way too tempting. Even if you commit to not using them, your brain still knows that the option to "read' the sentence by lazily mousing over things is less than five seconds away. I've found that I can process things faster and more independently since I've limited myself to jisho and goo.

>>18418782
Hmmm. The writing is a bit worse cause it's not Hiei but overall I enjoyed it. Shina writes better characters and interactions between them. He somehow managed to combine both the mystery of the story and the everyday life of mercanaries. The gameplay is different from Sky but when you get used to it, it seems fresh and nice. Plus, Kou and Rain has a major role in this so you get to see them a lot. More mature(not really, just edgy) Kou, yay!

>>18418908
mouseover dictionaries are a different part of it

>>18418912
Well, if it's mature and edgy I might be able to stomach it. Sky was great because the current day atmosphere was fairly dark and not just another moege with gameplay.

I dropped Baldr Heart in the middle of the second route. I just couldn't stand that high school srs business atmosphere.
Btw, does Baldr Heart get better in later routes? I might give that game another chance too.

>>18409972
>Please don't waste your time studying Japanese for VNs
Why?

>>18417247
I mean, N2 was garbage easy, but that's all you need to be able to read most things.

>>18419185

If by "most things", you mean "most sentences", then sure. Most sentences pull from the same relatively small set of ideas.

If by "most things", you mean "most plot expositions, most descriptive monologues, and most jokes, without having to stop to look things up", then that's bullshit. That's where the writer starts pulling from the other 34,000+ words that your average educated native has in his vocabulary. It's not even an uncommon experience to run across things that didn't make it into the J-to-E dictionary.

>>18416991
So she does use pads!!?

pic unrelated

>>18418953
I would say that zero is even more grim than dives, especially in the last two routes. You really should read it.
>Btw, does Baldr Heart get better in later routes?
Yes, but only in the latter half of Nagi's route. Well, Yuuri's route also wasn't that bad, I think. I honestly don't know if it was worth it in the end. On the other hand, gameplay was great so... I would say that you should give it another try if you really like the gameplay. Otherwise — probably not.

>>18418953
Well, Zero elaborates further on the current day atmosphere, on the problems of the cyberpank age.
>>18418953
I dunno. Routes 3 and 4 are more about Sou and the
High schoolers suddenly going to war felt awkward, yeah, but it didn't really bother me that much. I guess I was focused on other things- things I like about the game.
Nagi's route is nice and fun, just like all Baldr true routes so I guess you can read just for it.

>>18420379

Elaborating some more. Good luck understanding much of anything of substance while just being able to read most sentences and not the other 20% or so that actually contain content of substance.

I don't imagine that an eternal JLPT N2 pleb who just stopped there and never looked up another word would even be able to read children's manga and actually consistently understand what's going on and why the characters are doing what they're doing.

>>18421432
Just give it a try and see how it goes.

>>18421462
you're probably right, I feel like i worry too much about what to read and the difficulty
honestly i have a bit of a problem,
i started flyable heart and then dropped it for baldr sky, and now i'm thinking about trying something else new instead of playing this one out, any recommendations for what to do?

>>18421486
Don't use surprise boxes like that on this board.

>>18421486
The most important thing to do is ignore nerds like >>18421496
The second most important thing to do is focus on reading what you enjoy. If you're enjoying Baldr Sky, squash the urge to read something else. Why drop something you're enjoying? If you're not enjoying it, there's no harm in dropping it to look for something you will enjoy.

>>18421486
Don't post things in spoiler tags in this thread unless you want people to not read them.

I feel like we should add a disclaimer to the OP to keep DJT-tier posts out. Something like 'Any discussion on language learning and how "difficult" a VN is should be taken to DJT.' I don't care if you're an N5-tier beginner to Japanese and posting in this thread as long as you're actually talking about the games and characters themselves, but blogposting about your comprehension in here level is awful and belongs in DJT.

>>18421683
sou desu ne, doui shimasu.

>>18421544
i don't know, i am enjoying it so far
i think it's just that i want to read a bunch of different things and can't stay focused on one story
maybe im just a retard

>>18421817
My advice is to try and stay focused on one game, and only to pick up a new game if you also drop the game you're playing with no intention of coming back. If you keep up the pace of constantly swapping games that you enjoy, then you'll end up unsatisfied with a bunch of half-finished games. It's best to just restrain yourself a bit and stick with someone for however long it takes to finish.

>>18421829

There are plenty of works that are kinda fun, but not fun enough to play them to completion without anything else in between. I don't see any harm in stopping after a given route, or major arc or whatever and come back later. If you don't come back within a year or whatever, you can still delete it.
There's also the case that if you really enjoy a route to the point you feel bad for choosing a different one, waiting a year or two isn't a bad idea. This is pretty much only a moege thing though, and shouldn't happen very often.

That said, this depends on the person as well. Some love to play everything of one big series back to back, some don't. And I don't. Stopping after a given big arc isn't that different. It's much more "dangerous" to start several things at once. This tends to end badly. But if you make a clear cut and put something deliberately on hold at a very specific place, that should be fine.

Finished 天使のいない12月.
Even though it's really short and has a lot of routes none of them are pointless. Each route deals with a different theme and a side of the protagonists issues. I really liked how the relationship between the protagonist and the main heroine develops in a different way in each route.

It was a lot darker than I expected but I really recommend it if you want to read a good drama.

It reminded me of Crescendo (even though they aren't really that similar). There are probably a lot of similar games from that period that only few people know about. If anyone knows anything similar (good drama, routes where the intent isn't only to fuck the girl) please recommend it to me.

did anyone play it? and how is the other game from this crossover, hyakki ryouran no yakata, like? character designs seem somewhat worse than roku shimai, which also features art by m&m, and is a game I keep on my backlog because someone on 2ch mentioned once it had an elf feel (no idea if true).

It was mentioned here.

>>18423506
Did you read White Album 2? I think you'll enjoy it.

>>18423723

I think it's super (super) short anyway. So I wouldn't bother with it, unless you know both games already anyway.
I only know that Astronauts Yakata game and liked it. But given that the main heroine isn't even in this spin-off, I never bothered looking much into it, or that other game. Yuri's route was fun, but in a kinda different way.

It's pretty nice, have played around 13 hours and the plot is still in the common route. Usually these VNs (not action driven) bore me at around the 6 hour mark but Aokana is very charming. Heck, Im considering the Switch version for the new scenes/CG.

Out of curiosity, how did those of you here who are fluent or advanced learn Japanese?

I know the DJT guide lists quite a few different approaches, but I'm curious as to which ones successful learners actually followed. Did you use Anki? Did you go any more in-depth into grammar study than just reading through Tae Kim's guide? Did you do RTK or anything similar? Is reaching fluency really a straight-forward as just spending a few years reading VNs and so forth while looking up any words you don't know?

>>18428996
Before anyone shits on this guy for not asking in DJT just let me say no one in DJT actually knows Japanese.

>>18429098

If measuring proficiency in Japanese is something that interests you then you don't know Japanese and shouldn't be reading eroge or posting here.

>>18430067

I can drop one general guideline that will also hopefully quell questions of difficulty: Don't fucking worry about difficulty.

Just read whatever interests you. Being interested is far more important for learning than understanding absolutely everything that happens with 100% accuracy straight out the gates. Don't put off the stuff that you want to read and settle for things that you expect to be mediocre, either. That's a recipe for failure.

If the typical alt+f4 advice doesn't work, alt+enter. A lot of newer game have this on one of the function keys and for some you need to use the config.

>learning jap when even japs can't understand their own language well enough to have well written literature
I think I'll pass.
>awful translation
Awful is an opinion. Next time use words like "inaccurate".

He just did the concept though? Seems like he didn't actually write it? Or is that normal for VNs?

>>18430283
you shouldn't be here

>>18430283
Jesus, at least have some consistency in your idiocy, you subhuman. You say Japanese don't have well-written literature and but you're asking for translated porn games in the thread for untranslated ones.

>>18430283
Go fuck yourself.

Yeah, I was quite disappointed with many of the other rather one-dimensional baddies but Lucius was a 10/10 character. I also loved how Caim, despite his many objections was willing to work together with Lucius for so long, even when they were doing exactly the same things together as the previous villain who they usurped. The last chapter in general was so damn good.

>>18430295
I don't see why?

>>18430322
English translations make it sound more well written and literary than it otherwise would be. That comes with the language.

lol

i took a break from this thread for a while... was it always this bad?

>>18430640
eops found it again

No, it was pretty good while you were gone.

Wow. You mentioned something I've told you 2 posts ago and explained my reasons behind. Great detective work. Namecalling and metaposting is just pot kettle behavior.

>You say Japanese don't have well-written literature
I said what I said. Use greentext to properly quote my argument in its entirety next time. I can't help it. It's just something that comes with their language.

>The last chapter in general was so damn good.
Really? I find it one of the worst chapter in the game. Caim's personality did a complete 180 while Lucius ends up as your standard sociopathic villain with a messiah complex.

>>18430655

Namecalling and metaposting is just pot kettle behavior. Respond to the argument presented.

Not him but the last chapter is what made Eustia great for me. The first four chapters were just an average 6/10 game, but the final sequence of events was stringed together perfectly to create a constant high of adrenaline, which then concludes in a massive explosion of emotions and catharsis. That's primarily what made Eustia memorable to me and it's one of the first games I think of when talking about satisfying endings. I didn't really notice any 180s and the build up to what happened was believable enough.

>>18430738
Your "argument" is a well-known /vg/ bait. That's why global rule 3 applies to your shitposts.

People only learn to speak at 11 years old?

Any eroge with a capsule hotel setting?

Can't speak for eroge heroines, but I learned to speak at about 10.

I beg to disagree, and also agree with the other anon. First and last chapters were fantastic, whereas the middle chapters were merely decent with few good moments in the mix. I think Caim's indecisiveness was completely justified since the choice, as far as he was aware at that point was everyone dying vs. torturing Eustia, made more difficult by the latter herself also wishing to help. It isn't until later on that he realizes that living in a world without Eustia isn't worth it and stands up against Lucius, knowing he'll probably doom everyone in the process. Lucius' actions were also rooted in logic and always tried to maximize the number of survivors, making him one of the few truly rational people in the game since pretty much everyone else was going to doom the city rather than do what had to be done. In general the last chapter managed to nail a desperate "everything's going into the shitter" feel.

Though I'm not sure what to thing about the actual sacrifice happy ending. I was genuinely expected the game to end with everyone dying.

Sure. You hentai.

My googlefu is absolute shit, what am I doing wrong with ITHVNR? Is it supposed to miss half the characters?

>>18431870
I dunno, I learned Japanese so I don't have to use it. Try asking in DJT, you'll find more people using it there.

>>18431659
I modified the game to just let me do the true route without skipping through the character routes.

>>18432010
Huh? How did you do that?

>>18432010
The common part of the Sayo/Kukuri branch was plot relevant.

What are some good LNs by eroge writers? Interested in Shumon's stuff but the rest is outside my radar.

>>18432139
jintai, youjitsu, saekano, the ruitomo book, the chaos;child book

>>18432151

How was baldr bringer? Heard it was the last baldr game?

The overwhelming consensus seems to range from "mediocre" to "horrible". Basically everybody seems to agree that it's a completely unworthy sendoff for the franchise.

Personally, I don't really have any intention of playing it.

>Baldr Sky

These "defend the walls" levels are the worst fucking game design. The enemies hug the walls, and you'll hit the wall if you hit them, so all you can do is just stand there and hope that they separate from the wall and don't move in such a way that you turn back towards the wall while attacking them.

The side character routes in Senren Banka are just them talking about food so far. I'd hoped that it would at least be funny, like the chuuni girl from Dracu Riot's route.

Maybe I'll pick up Noratoto again, but this time read Patricia's route instead of continuing the gyaru girl's (Asuhara? Her route had dumb dark emotional drama). Things being funny are very important to me in moege. Or does anyone have any suggestions for something else funny? I thought Tsuriotsu was hilarious, so maybe oretsuba would be good.

also page 10, so new thread soon
