At least ONE route is.

>> No.2101759

An Anonymous recommended it to me because of a question I asked (what VNs had characters who had lost the sense that was critical to their dreams, like sight for an artist, hearing for a musician, etc) but after a while I just quit and uninstalled it.

The writing was truly fucking terrible for at least as long as I put up with it. I don't know what it is with Japanese writers and being completely retarded and putting inappropriate SO RANDOM XD jokes and characters everywhere.

>> No.2101785

>>2101712
Do something else. Seriously, it's shit. While some of the romance is a bit nice, the general feel of it is hamhanded random-as-fuck humor mixed with 'did that really happen, or is he just fucking around?' scenes.

Not to mention the guy giving up after failing a one-handed drumroll, which is one of the most basic things any skilled drummer at his age should be able to do.

Given that it's one of the three best translated VNs around, perhaps VNs just isn't your thing.

This.

I've played Ever17, Saya no Uta, Narcissu, and Crimsoness (which barely counts) and I can say without a doubt that Brass Restoration is no where near my top 3, let alone top 10, even though I haven't even played 10 VNs yet.

No, the relations are slight and Ryukishi may be abusing our ideas from Higurashi to trick us in Umineko anyways. His games usually demand "DON'T DRINK THE WATER, IT IS MADE OF BEES" levels of paranoia.

We like TakaJun, but after the initial "lol awesome another translated VN" rush subsided we all made our own judgements on the actual quality of the source material.

Well, unlike CH, it does not build up expectations and have them ruined with the most anticlimactic endings possible WHILST you have to fight of corrupted saves and glitches.

But, it's simple random entertainment and romance.

>>2101939
Admittedly it's the worst of the bunch and I haven't played some very well-recieved ones like Ever17 yet (Though I'm pretty sure Ever17 breaks physics at some point. A 4d being can't see an 3d universe and a 4d one simultaneously, can it? Well, better to leave the argument after I get more than cobbled-together, spoiled "facts". And a minor inconsistency doesn't prevent it from being a good VN after all. )

I enjoyed it. Light hearted and humerous little read.

Will they do a final release of Chaos;Head or did they forget about it and will leave it as is?

They can, but we'd only see them as 3D sections.

Take a piece of paper. This is your 2d surface. Except it isn't, it has a thickness. Halve its thickness. Then halve it again. Then again. After a while you won't be able to see the paper. Same with 4d being trying to see an 3d one.

Depends who you ask. It might be, but then again, it might not be. If it were, then seeing an object in four dimension would mean seeing all of that object, from the beginning of time until the end of time, all at once.

Anyone remember the KS thread last night where someone was asking how one could tell if a VN was truly popular?

This: when a thread about a completely different VN derails into a discussion on the physics of a different VN that has already been translated & out for something like 4 years.
