I think I remember quite a few of these threads, but I just finished Saya no Uta. Shit was God-tier. If Anon is not willing to go that far, then it was at LEAST Good-tier. World domination through controlling a worthy species? Fuck yeah. Also, the OST was brilliant.

Are there any VNs similar to this that I've not heard of? I've not tried any other stuff by Nito+, and I get mixed reviews about Chaos;Head from /jp/, so I'm not sure if I should jump into that one.

Tl;dr Saya thread and similar recommendations.

There needs to be a list of VNs people can refer to - "if you like X, then you'll probably like Y and Z" - that sort of thing.

I don't know what else is like Saya, though.

As long as it's not a tier list, a VN recommendation list shouldn't cause too many problems. Otherwise shitstorms.

Do your own research. If you're only read English, then there's really not much to go through. If you read Japanese, then you should already know where to go to look for more. Lists are pointless.

That's the real ending, well if you see everyone in earth turning into cthulus and having the main protagonist turning into crying pussy and having the 'heroine' dying whilst turning the world into cthulus happy ending, well I'm not going to stop you.

It was the happy ending. Saya had a genetically pre-built prime directive to assimilate DNA and then take over the local race. There was no way the two of them could be together forever given the circumstances. Saya's parting gift was )besides accomplishing her mission) was to make the world a bearable place for Fuminori. With their children now ever-present, Fuminori would never truly be apart from Saya.

>> No.2641474

So far I have read FSN, Tsukihime, Kagetsu Tohya, Saya no Uta, Ever 17, and Katawa Shujo.

I'm considering next to be either Yume Miru Kusuri, Utawareumono or Higurashi.

I'm not too sure about Higurahsi since I've already watched the anime.
So between Yume and Utawareumono, which one should I get? I'm looking for good wtf and holy shit moments like in Ever 17 and Saya, or good action.

You should put Planetarian and Clannad in your backlog too, these are very good.

>> No.2641479

>>2641474
If Utawa... is anything like Tears to Tiara then you're better off not playing it. YMK is decent though. The OP gives major spoilers, but if you've spent any time on /jp/, then you probably already know what happens.

>> No.2641485

None of them has the wtf and holy shit moment that you are looking.
Higurashi has them but only ep1 is translated.
Try older stuff like critical point, dividead or desire for wtf and brick shitting moment.

>> No.2641494

Why is Phantom of Inferno barely mentioned in recommendation threads? Sure it has a shitty DVD format but its still one of the best, on par with Ever17 and Clannad. Heck, even Nasu said that it was what he wanted Tsukihime to be.

Try Umineko. It's a lot like Higurashi(same creators) and is generally agreed to be excellent. Not as great as Saya, though.
>>2641494
Sure, Phantom is some of the best shit ever, but DVD format is horrible. That makes it really obscure.

About Clannad, that hasn't been fully translated yet has it? I think there's a partial one though...what is it missing? Also, link to aforementioned partial-translated ver would be much appreciated.

Heard of MOON, though I know nothing about it. I'll look it up.

Never heard of any of those, I'll look them up.

Thanks anons. I'll probably get YMK now though since I've seen it being discussed around here a lot - don't know shit about it though. What am I to expect?

From my version, it's missing a line here and there, but you can look all of the up on the wiki. The bigger problem is the editing, but it's not too bad.

Ok I just watched the OP. So, I'm assuming this is a school life game where kids are taking a drug because they're getting bullied? Sounds...so emo.

>>2641599
I don't really understand what you mean by emo, but sure. There are three actual routes in this game, one for each girl. Each girl has her own problem and you just help with it (relationship, etc). Although it's a school life game, there are a lot of brow-raising situations that a lot of Anons seem to enjoy. Play it if you want; it's your time.
