/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Man, why didn't I listen when they told me to skip AnotherDays?
Only 2, maybe 3 passable routes out of 8, ranging from really bad to mediocre to okayish.
>Yoshi's route was surprisingly good, albeit a little too simple
>Sylpha's route was the route we should've had in TH2 and it was okay
>Tamaki and Konomi's bonus scenario is good if you liked them in the previous game
And now for the bad
>Harumi's route is too boring and predictable, and she bothers you in every other route if you don't pick her
>Charu's route was literally just "m-muh misunderstanding", bonus points for the heroine getting punched in the face
>Maaryan's route was bonkers, and not in a good way, at least the scenes were hot
>Nanako's route was such a fucking routelet cop out I get angry just thinking about it
>Haruka's route was the same as Nanako's except for mommyfags
>Ikuno's route takes the cake for managing to make an interesting turn (female pov) just for the reader to get 4th dimensionally cucked, if I was a NTRcuck I'd probably be kneeling by now
Personally I only played the sequel so I could get ready to start Dungeon Travelers 1, but that only backfired and left me with a bitter taste so I don't I'll start that anytime soon.

>just for the reader to get 4th dimensionally cucked
Explain, I'm curious.

I'm looking forward to Sleepless coming out in a couple of days, but I hope it has as much content as Starless did.

>>35303113
>content
You mean scat?

>>35296985
Well, grab some popcorns cause this is a long one.

As soon as you start her scenario things already feel off, since the game asks you to input your own name, which you could do in TH2 (default name Takaaki Kouno) but was discarded in AD for all routes except for Ikuno's. This goes to show how Takaaki becomes an entity of its own in Ikuno's route, unlike the previous routes where he was the self-insert no one wanted to self-insert as (Hetare as fuck). This is further emphasized by the fact that Takaaki now is also voiced. So as you start and normally progress the route, you notice how somehow, only in this route Takaaki has gone from SSS-tier hetare to alpha chad. I'd like to ephasize "only this route" because it's the only one where you aren't supposed to self-insert and only now he becomes a sex crazed alpha male who pounds Ikuno's sister every night without a care to not make too much noise. Ikuno obviously notices and in between the background fucking and the school days, Ikuno starts getting all hot and bothered for Takaaki, and also jealous of her sister. Note that unlike the other routes this is told from Ikuno's POV, so you get to read exactly what she loves about him and how she wants to get fucked by him. One night Takaaki is drunk and crashes in Ikuno's room and starts fingering her only for her to stop him and somehow make him go back to pound her sister. This makes her all the more sexually frustrated. More shenanigans later she's shown chatting on an online forum with some people who had surgeries similar to her, and one guy named Baumkuchen who she feels the most trust in (because she's also worried about him having the surgery soon) so she asks him for love advice, and he tells her to just be honest with her own feelings. After even more shenanigans Ikuno finally takes action and decides to tie her hair up like her sister to trick a drunk Takaaki and straddles him. Now, based on the route choices you've made so far and how close you got to Takaaki, she either realizes she's just sexually frustrated and doesn't want to cheat on her sister, or she just rides his cock then and there. Not that the dates, sleep molesting, and thinkgen about cock all happens regardless of your choices, which only change whether you get the dick or not. If you get the D, the game soon ends, however if you didn't, that is where the ultimate cucking really begins. By this point you have probably forgotten how you had to input the name at the beginning which seem completely inconsequential, and that is where the sick tweest happens. In the scene after the close call-dicking, Ikuno chats some more and tell Baumkuchen to relax because she'll for his surgery to go well, then later she goes to hospital for an health checkup because she felt sick after the almost-dick and the nurse lets her know that one of the patients had her same illness and he just passed the surgery, and then, I shit you not, Ikuno looks at the nameplate and she sees your name in there. (You) look her in the eyes and tell her (You) were Baumkuchen all along, and successfully went though the surgery because of her support from the chat.

That's right, (You), (You) were giving love and sex advice to Ikuno so she could get fucked by what was once a self-insert for (You), now chad thunder cock who is also voiced now. This becomes even more hilarious once you realize that not only the route just ends as soon as (You) meet her, but also that if Ikuno got dicked she would most likely not join the cripple chat anymore and you'd die from lack of prayers and good luck.

Pic motherfucking related.

>>35305728
You are such a sad sap.

>>35305728
What the actual fuck

>>35305728
Oh god that shit is hilarious.
I guess they hint that they end up together at least going by that fucking post, still really fucking depressing.

>>35305526
I'm not much of a scat appreciator but it's cool in Starless as a symbol for how fucked and degenerate things get. I'm just hoping Sleepless has a similar set up to Starless with a lot of choices and branches, I remember the game suprising me with how much you could do in it.

>>35305728
I want more games like this.

>>35308319
I'm glad I don't make poverty money like that.

>>35305728
Picked up

>>35308319
Or repeat same vapid sex jokes

How good is noraneko?
From shit tier (yuzucrap) to kami tier (kinkoi, smee, aonatsu line)?
on the scale from 1 to 10

>>35312092
>kinkoi, smee
>>>>>>>>kami

>>35312136
Yes, you've got any issues with actually good moege titles?

>>35308319
If you are a contract writer, you don't write a story. You write the text for a commercial work.

Projects that hire people like that do not intend to have anything else. Most gacha, moege and whatnot. If you actually want to enter the realms of trying to provide something more with your work, things will be a little different. You obviously still have requirements like a certain amount of text (not too little, not too much), a general setting /setup, but a creator needs some sort of freedom and leeway, or else it's not going to work.

It's pretty easy to feel what work is what. It's not even brand related. Usually amount of writers is a good indicator, but nothing that's always correct.

So, uh, how was this game? I'll get to it eventually, but still seething from when I found out it was all ages.

>>35312411
Just play the episodic ones then

>>35312609
I have. Doesn't the new chapter have added content?

>>35312623
Just a short scene cleaning some loose ends and then just romantic afterstories with no h-scenes, fucking retarded.

>>35312737
That's what I was afraid of. How the hell is this going to be expanded into another 4 games?

>>35312750
What? There aren't any more games.

>>35312758
Oh. Should've called the series 5 -five- then.

>>35312761
Just read the games before assuming anything, idiot.

>>35312766
Lmao, good joke man.

What does DBD stand for? iirc Norato's "natural" resolution is 1280x720.

>>35312092
Funny at times but falls flat a lot of others, hot porn with a couple of threesomes.
Most disappointing thing about it is the sorry excuse for a route Eurasia got in the sequel.

>>35312411
Lukewarm like the entire series

>>35312092
I just finished all 4 routes in the first game and I say It's pretty good, definitely above average in terms of jokes and really good in terms of romance.
Hell, every single heroine is great and non of them is unlikeable, except maybe Kuroki but I did like her.
So yeah, the romance is great, art and music are amazing.
My only "complaint" is that after you start dating every route becomens nukige tier with a 70% H-scenes 30% story ratio.
Speaking of the scenes, most of them are really good by moege/charage strandard, so go play Honey* if you end up liking the art.
>>35312868
That sucks, I was looking forward to her route in 2.

>>35312737
Just read episodes separately and then read 5th game.
>>35312868
>>35313049
Thx guys, should give it a try, my main motivation is tons of my favorite VAs in it.

I hate kissing and blowjob noises. Some of the latter are so bad, it has the same effect on me as listening to someone else puke.

>>35313289
>it has the same effect on me as listening to someone else puke.
That's why it's hot.

>>35313289
>I hate kissing
What? Kissing is the best. I only read moege with kissing.

>>35313289
Stop playing cheap nukige with shit VA.

>>35313512
That's the sad part, it's completely unrelated to the genre or quality of the VA. I read moege with top VA that had absolutely disgusting blowjob scenes.

>>35313474
It's not that I hate the kissing, I just hate how it sounds.

Speaking of, what are some nukige with great blowjobs noises?
I already played the one with the blonde brown gyaru that had God-tier ones, also the exaggerated noises Matsuri's VA in Tenioha were also great.

Just finished Chiwa route and started Hiyori route in Sakura Moyu, but the timeline is confusing as fuck
>One of Sol's daughter's signature works is a painting on discontinued trains
>In the present, 2 years ago, an artist began painting on discontinued trains
>Nahat waited 55 years for Chiwa's return
>Chiwa's other father's name is 遠矢
>The friend Toya said farewell with in the present marries into a family of artists and has a son called 遠矢 in the future

>>35312411
It just ties up some loose ends and has afterstories for all 4 heroines
Don't expect too much if you've already finished all 4 episodes

>>35313533
VNs are in 99 out of 100 terrible at that. Curiously, hentai anime aren't as bad.

>>35314827
Seems to be more of a JAV thing, but hey, what can you expect from a writer with nothing else to reference from.

>>35313289
Are you homosexual? I understand not liking blowjob sounds when they go overboard and it sounds like some fucking alien vacuum cleaner or something. Otherwise, it's hot as fuck. So is kissing.

>>35316450
It's actually homosexuals who like blowjobs

I wonder who's gonna be the writer?

What if it's the Deep One guy?

I love Meiya autism so much

>>35316951
>What if it's the Deep One guy
Wouldn't that be bad for them? Then again, I forgot if Deep One was panned for being shit or being episodic. Or both.

>>35317552
How about meiya from the adaptation?

>>35317936
Anon if you're talking about the upcoming anime, you're only going to make me angry.

>>35317936
we don't talk about abominations here

>>35317936
There is no adaptation.

>the music on this part
I'm dying over here.

>>35305728
This is a new and interesting level of NTR

>>35312384
Most kamige writers are pure commercial writers too.

>>35317936
Her brief scene in the Akane Maniax anime was great.

Small question that I figured this was the best board and thread to ask in:
How do japanese people type kanji fast? What's the input method? If someone was typing in a live chat quickly how would they be entering in things that aren't solely kana?

>>35321327

Wrong thread ->
>>35320696

>>35321327
anon why didn't you just google this shit

>>35321327
Japanese computers have huge keyboards with 2500 keys. If you want to type a kanji not on the keyboard you have to hit two keys at once to fuse the kanji

My fucking sides. Was this show popular in Japan?

>>35322196
Yes. There was even a Japanese remake called 24 Japan just last year

>>35322196
24 was actually shockingly popular in Japan for whatever reason. Fucking Umineko makes a 24 reference in the side material of all things.

Where can I download Polyphonica Plus and F? Only need those two because the others are available on PSP.

Is Tokyo Necro any good?

>>35323970
sure.

>>35323970
> yuri
Yes.

sorry if I didn't do my reps for opinion but is any of the later key visual VNs good? the last and latest I played was Rewrite and the Festa one.

>>35323970
>shimokura vio
No

>>35326011
t.moogyfag

>>35323970
It's actually fun as fuck and the writing is suprisingly good, didn't think the writer could handle subtle differences between combie Souun and normal, emotionless Souun so well for example.

Really hope we will get a new Nitroplus eroge without Shimokura in future.

G-senjou is weird. Why did he write a protagonist who does nothing the whole time? Literally he is now shifting the pov to side characters to somehow move the plot forward. He can actually write dialogue, jokes, SoL, but his plot ideas don't work.

>>35327131
calm down moogy simp

>>35327727
who cares about that yuri shitter, lol, but Shimokura should stick to gacha shit from N+

>>35327826
nothing wrong about shimokura, you're just too low iq to appreciate his subtle humor

While we're on topic, give me your best vanilla yuri games.

>>35327885
Katahane

tokyo necro is based because it has a scene where a father throws his gay daughter out the window

>>35328849
And the fact he was just projecting and she's basically an abomination and a crime against nature.

>>35328849
Picked up

God fucking dammit. Noel was such a fucking shit show.

Alright. Let me get this out of the way first. The story around Noel and Lily is good. Noel, your cold professional killing machine gets to be a bodyguard in some fancy school for rich girls, for Lily. At first she's not happy and even almost breaks down by the change of tone and atmosphere, but soon she's falling for Lily. Hard. Like super hard. So you have this relationship based around Noel trying to keep her job and everything a secret, while she also slowly dies (for story reasons), and struggles with the incoming fights, while Lily obviously realizes something is going on, but doesn't dare to ask. You know. The good stuff.
So. This is all nice and dandy. But this is an eroge. And there was apparently need for a LOT of uninteresting BS everywhere. You need to skip through a lot of uninteresting shit, as really, the only interesting thing is this one relationship. Maybe if the villains wouldn't have been introduced as the dumbest stereotypes ever, there could've been some fun. Maybe if there hadn't been a lot of completely random rape everywhere (no, not even really ero scenes, although the omake menu counts them). Something. But it just isn't. It felt like the vision of the writer and rest of the dev clashed hard, as it just doesn't harmonize at all. Or.. something like that.

Now. I'm not new to VNs, I know my ctrl. Still the point I get annoyed is if in the end the most important and pivotal part of this fucking relationship (Lily learning about Noel, including her impending death) is in a super predictable way interrupted, exchanged for dumb as fuck story shit, with what ultimately looked like some shitty asspull happy ending tacked on. I dunno. I held ctrl, as I was mad, but the CG made me think so.


The writer of this ended up continuing to write stuff like Toradora. Good choice. As much as I loved the interaction of Lily and Noel, god did this game end up fucking up whatever it possibly could. For no gain whatsoever. Now I know the reason, why nobody ever talks about this, even though it's one of the not so common yuri(?) games with a story.

>>35328875
>>35328849
Grow up

Ichika is, as a matter of fact, quite the aberration, genetically speaking.

>>35329088
There is no need to virtue signal in this place, my friend

>>35328974
I know there are multiple writers for games with routes and different heroines, but isn't the writer here in charge of the main plot? How does this happen?

>>35329107

>>35329479
Why do they always resort to crossdressing?

>>35329560
Otaku are mostly tranners

>>35329560
No trannies so crossdressing is still top tier comedy, like it was in the US some years ago.

>>35323892
It's on AnimeBytes.

>>35328849
I will now read your VN

Man, I was wondering the whole time by the textbox is made like this, so that each character always fits in the squares just like it's done for 作文, and there's actually a plot reason.

>>35331989
kek'd

>>35329761
If you think trannies don't exist in Japan then you're mistaken.

>>35329125
My guess is: The writer wanted to make a yuri game. The director didn't. It's hilarious how the main plot is 100% yuri, which can't be denied (regardless of what random shit happens), yet the 2 yuri ero scenes are the only scenes you can actually skip with a choice given.. or at least I think so, because they are literally "MORE" vs "Nah, I've seen enough". All of the hetero rape and generally hetero stuff? Aside of most of it being hardly something you can call an ero scene, a few were and you could not skip it like that.

I can only think of creative differences. Not sure what happened though. Maybe someone thought this is the only way for yuri to work, given the age of the game.

This was a bitch to start up, and now that I finally made it it's all blurry, no matter what graphic settings I change, any help?
I'm using RLSE Loader since AlpharomDie didn't work.

>>35336666
Nevermind I made it work with Alpharom, you HAVE to check the Siglus engine setting instead of unchecking it.

Kawashima Rino hasn't voiced a single main heroine this year. Let that sink in. The era is over.

>>35343246
Kawashima Rino is a 40+ years old women. She shouldn't have voiced a main heroine for over 10 years now.

>>35345338
Dude, she's the ultimate spaghetti lord. One scene she stutters and fucks up words like no tomorrow and in the next she's an energetic and optimistic romantic who hates loan words like no one I've ever seen.
At first, I wasn't too fond of her, I must admit. But especially the last third where she's the MC made me actually root for her. I doubt I'll find another game which shows off unrequited love in this manner.

that shit made me so mad i dropped it

>>35353629
Depends on what you're looking for. If you just want to watch cute girls die, go for it, but if you want a good story I wouldn't recommend it, the twists are completely retarded. The voice acting was great though.

>>35344386
Thanks, I appreciate this so much. Went crazy looking for this the other day but had no luck. Thank god I don't have to suffer through shitty PSP resolution/sound.

Isn't it just overrated trash with SAO tier writing

>>35370904
Pretty much. It's okay, if you like the humor. At first at least. But the writing is really really weak. But if you like Sao meets really weird humor, it should be okay. It does have a pretty high end voice cast as well, but even that couldn't make me stay. Pic related was a lot better by the writer. So two routes were still pretty much whatever, but that's pretty normal I guess.

What's wrong with it?

>>35379170
I thought it was pretty okay when I played?

>>35379065
Surprised it's not all ages.

>>35345120
Red looks cute, I wonder if she-
Oh...

>>35379345
>>35379297
The big problem is that the font size is way too small. Overall i don't like the futeristic aesthetic, especially the save menu which looks really cheap. The icons of the UI in game at the start of the game are also way too small, but it changed to this blue/yellow one, which is alright (Started with Case 3).

>>35378029
It is the kamige of 2020 after all.

>>35379983
I'm just suprised they have taken KEY route after their first kamige

>>35380207
I really don't understand the economics of going all-ages, Key is undeniably less relevant ever since dropping R18 content, whether that be for other reasons or just part of the general industry decline, I can only see how you lose users from going R18 when you could've just made an all ages version. It's not like these types of games heavily feature sex to the point where it would alter the story significantly to remove the scenes. Perhaps the market these days for low sexual content games is so tiny that they might as well just remove it entirely but it still doesn't seem to yield much benefit.

>>35379929
You know you can change the font?

>>35382183
Not him, but the size was a larger issue than the typeface.

>>35382241
why not just go into the screen options and fiddle with resolution then

>>35382103
Seeing how well Summer Pockets sold, I think it's save to say, there's a market for all ages. The game was short, rushed, buggy and is one of Key's weakest, and that didn't stop it.

>>35382303
Isn't it moreso the question of whether the game not having explicit sex scenes enabled it to reach a broader audience. They undoubtedly could've sold more if they did what they added R18 scenes with Reflection Blue, I just don't see how the lack of scenes, when ultimately a significant draw of the story is about romancing different characters, is more profitable as a business model. In my head it always feels like they do it out of a sense of grand standing, "unlike the rest of the industry our work sells without sex and hence is better than yours", it's the same feeling I get from Type Moon but at least in their case there actually exists a clear way that removing sexual content is beneficial monetarily.

>>35382268
The only other option is fullscreen, which looks awful because the game isn't full HD. to be honest it's not really a big deal and i'm enjoying the game just fine regardless. Deshouga! is cute and Asakawa Yuu is putting on a great performance.


>>35382303
Summer pockets main selling point was that it was a mainline orginal Key title after a decently long drought. I don't think ero/no-ero mattered that much. Kinda curious if (b)loopers will have the same reception, personally found it a lot weaker and i haven't seen any discussion about it.
>>35382416
Just to be curious, where would you fit in the H-scenes in Summer pockets? With the exception of Shizuku's route, most routes are close to being finished when Hairi gets into a romantic relationship.

>>35382639
>>35382241
I know that t*xt h**king is a dirty word around here, but if you are legitimately struggling to read the text because it's too small I don't see any shame in using one to blow up the size a bit.

>>35382655
It wasn't hard to read. It was just ugly.

>>35382639
This reminds me the new version of hakuchuumu will actually be HD too. On another note, Sumomo's voice is a joy to listen to, and I'm sure gonna play the new version just to hear more deshougas from Azuki.

>>35383672
Forgot to mention that it seems they're writing extra scenes to make up for the h-scenes. They released them in novel form in their cien and all.

>>35383686
Are those scenes set after the true ending? Would ctrl through the game to see more of that, otherwise nope.

>>35353681
Well I guess I didn't make it to the shooting game, but I'm getting my ass kicked by the volleyball mingame right now. This shit sucks.

>>35383802
They would all be in the omake section replacing the extra sex scenes, I think.

>>35379049
>hard sci-fi
Dude please

Finished all routes of Oretsuba(6.5/10). All of them except for, maybe, imouto route, felt like they were hastily tacked on just to tick check boxes.
>miyako route(1/10)
I shouldn't have bothered with this pure cancer sub route. It didn't take me much time to go from "wow, a heroine with ex bf and you're helping her get over her ex? Interesting" to "Holy fucking shit what is this bullshit".
>Hayato(and Naru) route (6/10)
I would've enjoyed it a lot better if it didn't drag on for what felt like eternity with repetitive jokes, and a plot whose job is to doesn't go anywhere just to fuck with you.
I liked going on dates with naru exploring different spots and meeting familiar faces on the way like that noodles stand dude, crepe oneesan, platinum. My issue is how this gets thrown aside after some time for shitty ""plot"", and naru herself is pretty boring and shallow as a heroine, and her problem is just inane shit.
>kobato route (6/10)
All personalities merging together under one ego and youji struggling to pick best quality for a given situation, to make all the qualities of his new superpersonality to work in harmony. What he learned as hayato helping him in takashi or shuusuke situations, or vice versa. This demonstrated the themes of Oretsuba better than having a heroine like asuka preach its message in a scene near the end of the her route. with that said I didn't like the way MC confronts his past and how everything gets beautifully concluded by the end.
I probably would've enjoyed oretsuba a lot better if I played it as a newfag. Also, whatever the fuck happened to kakeru?? I thought he was going to be a major salient character in some way but he turned out to be just one of those annoying delusionally narcissistic chimp tangential to our lives. He was one of my least favorite side characters.

>>35386049
>All of them except for, maybe, imouto route, felt like they were hastily tacked on just to tick check boxes.
Even jackson agrees with this assessment

>a plot whose job is to doesn't go anywhere just to fuck with you.
>Also, whatever the fuck happened to kakeru??
I believe jackson wanted to do anti-story shit betraying all types of narrative expectations. He just wanted to show different characters living in their own bubbles, going through shit in their lives, and you're living in your own bubble. These bubbles might interact now and then, but they don't come together in an elegant way to weave plot. I am damn sure this was what jackson wanted to do with oretsuba. But unfortunately he's too incompetent for his ambitions.

>>35382639
>Kinda curious if (b)loopers will have the same reception
It'd only be comparable with other Key short works.
As a reader of other r07 works, it was a satisfying story to read. It was an over theatrical display later properly channeled. Witnessing r07 turning on Key's nakige switch was interesting. Only major complain I could make is the lack of character development for everybody except the main heroine. The character design and art style in general was also pretty.

>>35358402
Done with Mai's route. That girl's really something else.

>>35386846
I did her route first out of pity, only to find her like that...

This brand is going all out with binaural "ASMR" eroge, hopefully they fix the audio because https://vndb.org/v30544 sounded like shit for what it's trying to do.

Anyone play Badge and Dagger?

>>35396529

Yes, exactly.

>>35389248
Digination has a brand like that too
http://fanzagames-digination.com/audilove/index.html

I ended up getting children songs when trying to look up a nukige song

>>35398238
Browser/Phone only though, Chaos is making normal eroge, which I imagine is precisely the problem since they're using KiriKiri with its trash audio codecs.
I played the trial for one of those audilove and at least the audio was actually good, but playing a game with vertical aspect ratio on your PC feels retarded.

>>35399067
>KiriKiri with its trash audio codecs
What audio codecs are you talking about? I can't remember the last time I've played an eroge that wasn't good quality vorbis

I haven't played VN's in a long time and tried to find one on nyaa but couldn't. Is there a new place all the cool kids download VN's?

恋×シンアイ彼女, I vaguely remember there being like another version of nyaa where you could find untranslated games? I'd be willing to pay to play VN's too if that's way easier though to be honest.

It's also on Fanza if you want to buy it digitally

>>35399484

>>35399513
I'll check it out thanks.

Everything that was uploaded before nyaa switched from .se to .si says 0 bytes. It's just a bug, the torrents still work

good but it takes way too long to get to them. you have to do like 8 fucking scenes of foreplay first

https://vndb.org/v13342
There's no little sister in this so who should I go for? The pink hair looks dumb and cute but the blondie is listed as a childhood friend. Childhood friends are sometimes good substitutes for little sisters.

>>35401450
>8 fucking scenes of foreplay first
I actually don't mind those

>>35401007
It is their only kamige, maitetsu is kusoge and Gothic Delusion was kinda unpolished. Great OST though.

Are there any high quality dating sims for the PS2, All I get is crap like amagami which suck ass(main problem being the mc being a huge loser)

>>35405041

>>35405060
Those are children.

>>35405246
Yeah, great huh?

>>35405397
But it's on PS2, so I guess you can't prpr them.

>>35405246
No, they are 12. They have hair and bleed.

This would be a lot more interesting if you actually play as Nobue.

>>35405445
They start so early.

Are there any games with good harem routes?

>>35413341
Harem Kingdom.

>>35413341
Harem Kingdom is very flawed with its route system, but it's probably the best we got in a long time.

>>35413536
>>35413548
Did people really hate the fandisk(s)?
I only played Sophia's and Charu's after routes, but I thought those were pretty cute and comfy.

>>35413341
Duel Savior Justice

>>35419606
We didn't say anything about the FDs, and they're very irrelevant when talking about harem routes.

>>35413341
Nukige. Outside of that, harems tend to have no resolution, or choose one girl in the end after all in case they wanna do romance. Nukige are about the ero, which is obviously a lot easier to do.

>>35423067
HaremKingdom is not really a nukige. I mean it has a lot of H-scenes, but it's not a nukige I'd say.

>>35423728
I haven't played it, but from how it sounded, the game is either part of "having no resolution" (or just making it into a joke), or actually focusing on one girl.

>>35423067
What resolution can a harem have?

>>35425189
girls peg mc together

>>35424739
>actually focusing on one girl
Partially. Each of the routes is a harem route with harem scenes. Plot scenes take turns between harem hijinks and chosen "main wife". For example I chose Charlone, and it wasn't like majority of the route was about her. MC and the harem moved into a pub to run it as a restaurant/bar as per Marrou's wish, and there was plenty of focus on all heroines.

can someone tell me where i can find sona-nyl?
the mega link on itazuraneko doesn't seem to work anymore.

>>35413341
Princess Witches is basically a harem game and it’s very good

>>35339905
Actually it does opposite by tricking your body to think it's hot and open pores to release extra heat thus making you lose warmth.

These messages after reaching the ending are cute. The best one is wakamoto of course though.

>>35294981
Why does ASaProject insist on making me feel bad for choosing a route in every game…
Like I know that the other girls would be sad in that situation, being dumped and all, but I who the fuck wants to see it, Jesus.
Koikari did this shit a ton with Tenma/Emi, and now Koirowa pulls the same dirty trick on me.

kamige confirmed?

>>35433112
No, same issues as the last game but more pronounced because of the short length.

Is HajiLove the first moege since Kinkoi to have multiple anal scenes? Feels like I haven't seen so many in a while.

>>35433112
Only people who liked the original read the sequels.

>>35433112
It's better than original.

I liked the original and was very disappointed by badge and dagger. Looked forward to fuyumi route but finding out that it's short as fuck with that classic kinugasa finishing touch made me drop the game.

>vn thread is back
you kept saying vtubers kept shitting up jp and you had to move but now you're here why didn't anyone tell me

I just finished Kinkoi.

Is Golden Time worth playing? I really liked Silvia and want to know more about Ayaka's anus.

Anal is shit
I ctrl skip through all anal scenes
Why would anyone want to cover their dick with shit stains
Might as well go full scat

>>35437095
If you liked anything about it, it's better to stay away. Ayaka makes for a bad heroine (basically the first half of her route is fine, but she's not working as a heroine once it comes to that), and it shits all over the main plot idea of the game as well.
Kinkoi is fine as it is. The fandisc was made for people who didn't like it, rather than for people who wanted just more.

>>35437095
Common route, Ayaka and Mina routes are good in fd, appends for other heroines are okay but way too short. FD true route is shit.
FD works for people who just wants more kinkoi, except for it's true route.

>>35437606
>it shits all over the main plot idea of the game as well.
That's a good thing

Kinkoi is overrated.

>>35438101
Its writing is no better than some shitty mediocre moege so I don't understand what's all the fuss about.

>>35435853
Hateao

>>35437606
>>35437709
Thank you.
I really liked the game so maybe I will play it anyway.

>>35439178
Anyone who reads Kinkoi now is an EOP because it just came out for them, so you probably can't even read the FD.

Too bad we don't have any decent eroge archive outside shitty premium links, paid 2djgame ftp, baidu links on KF and AB.

Why do you think that. I know how to read japanese and i played this game in japanese. Im just new to eroges, thats why im reading it now.

The japanese use "wo" and, not "o".

>>35440418
Hey, this looks kind of good.

The japanese use を, everything else depends on the transcription. Just like へ should be "he" but is mostly written "e".

>>35442075
>>35443322
>everything else depends on the transcription
So is を seen as a type of kanji in their mind or is it still in kana?

Who the fuck cares about romanization

>>35443807
This. It doesn't fucking matter other than typing on your keyboard.

>>35439618
Nothing wrong with reading stuff already released in ENG if you're reading the JP version or even the released version through dual language options. I'm doing the former for Baldr Sky 2 and I'll get to enjoy Baldr Sky X afterwards unlike EOPs.

>Nothing wrong with reading stuff in ENG.

ALREADY RELEASED in ENG...JP version
Read closely since I know we can actually read unlike everyone else in /jp/

>>35444748
The moment a VN gets an english release it's tainted. How can you read something knowing that E*Ps are also enjoying it?

I've never read any VN's in English, mostly because I started reading them to improve my Japanese, but what's the big deal?

>>35435637
They really should stop with the nameable protagonist meme. It's actually ruining the immersion.

>>35435637
How do I get the patch working? I installed it but nothing changed.

>>35444769
I bet the guy doesn't even read eroge, Japanese or otherwise, "the big deal" is ebin shitposting and he's gonna keep stirring up that shit as long as you retards keep responding to him

I don't know why anyone would keep track of what's released in English or not in the first place

>>35444769
some people in this thread are autistic

>>35444766

That said, I started reading Noraneko yesterday.

You should not read it.

>>35444809
>"the big deal" is ebin shitposting and he's gonna keep stirring up that shit as long as you retards keep responding to him
This. Don't ask how I know.

Why did it flop so hard?

That's seriously the best way for them to lead to a h-scene?
>i still owe you for that case, nothing sexual
>alright go on a date with me
>alright
>this date sucked but whatever
>no that's not good enough to payback the debt
>alright fine lets go drinking, your treat
>alright
>no that wasn't enough to pay back my debt to you
>what the fuck, fine lets take this back to an apartment
>i told you nothing sexual
>yeah you're right, we're over
>alright fine, we can have sex
>cool, i'll be gentle
I say this when the setups for the h-scenes in the previous game were also terrible

>>35447468
Maybe the different artist?
Taniyama might not be the best artist ever but his characters don't appear too generic.

>>35447547
What's a normal way to lead to a h-scene?

>>35447649
>I took this photo of you and your boyfriend holding hands behind the school
>Now, have sex with me, or else!

>>35447649
>you remember that one time you've been nice to me?

>>35447649
Bit more of a build up, heroine coming to terms with realising she has feelings for protagonist, maybe a confession and following sometime going into the h-scene
Also the "route" is like an hour long and ends after the 2nd h-scene

>>35447468
Angry hagfags.

heh

>>35447468
Doesn’t seem that bad of a score especially for a Smee game

>>35447672
Yeah her route was absolute garbage. I was expecting them to at least solve another full case now that ruka earned her respect before they got into a relationship but no, she spreads her legs after solving a single case. Then you don't even get to see anything with the relationship like other character's reactions.

>>35448383
>>35447468
Yeah, same scores as other SMEE games but the two 20s are bringing the average down, and one of them is just a guy triggered at the little bit of occult stuff at the beginning.

http://madosoft.net/infomation/archives/673

That's fine since EOPs didn't get the H-scenes, so they basically didn't get anything.

Not sure if it's the same version as yours but >>16925911 anon's advice worked on one of the games I purchased.
>New SD protected games (in case when denchiunwrap doesn't produce any file even though it says it's done, this is a bug clearly) can be easily unwrapped using a hex editor. Search for the exe header bytes (4D5A90 in this case, but the third byte can be different I think), go to the second occurrence and copy everything from that point until the end of the file to a new .exe file. This is an utterly idiotic protection scheme.

The one game I had to remove it from also had changed name for the game's executable so I had to rename that properly as well.

In todays' times of 2021 this seems to be a bonus...

>>35451945
Everyone is gay to some extent.

>>35451645
>>hahaha farting is funny
Pic with the h-scene? Asking for a friend.

>>35452140
Only amongst the ロリ or just the 女子 in eroge. Not amongst the players themselves.

>>35452129
It helps with that game at least. The artist really loved focusing on the ass or dick of the guy.

>>35452249
Dicks unironically look better than gross vaginas.

>>35452267
Now this is some high-level cringe

幸福に生きよ

>>35452342
He's not saying anything controversial lmao

>>35452410
どうやって?

>>35452410
Oh my gawd you changed my life
I should just live happily and all my and societal problems will be solved

>>35451645
>Creativity? Smee? Bro.. they make generic moege. Have you read ML, SS, fureraba?
>>hahaha I watch reptile porn laugh at me
>>hahaha farting is funny
>This is smee humor
You're totally right bro, this is so un-funny! Time to drop score to 1

>>35371771
>an easy platinum
bought the switch version

Is sca-ji Jordon Peterson of VN medium?

>>35452449
エロゲ読めばいいとおもうです

>>35452533
Even that retard has more useful wisdom than scat-jizz

bro 自殺 is all around us! people forget death!

>>35452586
Eroge don't satisfy me anymore.

>>35452650
So much this. I gave an impropmptu speech today at school about this very matter. The sheep did not listen to me though...

>>35452478
>Oh my gawd you changed my life
Exactly my thoughts upon finishing 素晴らしき日々

>>35452512
If they actually made a scene like that then that would be funny

>>35452512
>Time to drop score to 1
you guys also have a written notebook record of what VN you have read and what the score is?

Playing FINAL DRAGON CHRONICLE ～GUILTY REQUIEM～
Forget WA2, this is Leaf's arcydzieło

>>35452650
I started watching Babylon. Some morons make a new town with separate laws to legalize death/suicide. It might be for you.
I hate the justice talk myself though. Who cares about rigging elections being some kind of justice or not, the law's idea is to keep order, and not let some lunatics do dumb shit because they think it's "just". Sad that nobody seemingly understands that simple concept, and instead trying the good old "oooh, what is justice!". [/rant]

Sorry, I had to. That said, I'm actually going to try hoshiori, with this remaster. Supposedly one of the longest and at the same time most boring VNs in existence. Some do like their games though. Let's see how long I last. If anyone has girl recommendations, I'm all ears.

>>35452749
You don't?

>>35452848
Hoshiori is unironically terribly written.

SMEE humor >>>>>>> SCAJI humor

>>35453025
>stooping so low as to compare your favorite humor to sca-ji's """""humor""""" to make it seem good

>>35453025
Everything looks better when you've suffered through Scadick

>>35453099
That's the secret to living happily ;^)

>>35453025
SCA-Ji is unironically better at writing comedy

>>35453328
sure

>>35453328
Lmao

never read Majikoi so this was the first time I've heard Railgun's eroge voice

>>35450489
It was uploaded on Share back in the day. I would ask on 2dkf request forum.

dunno if I'm the anon you're referring to. lost interest a bit, but finished aoi's route yesterday. it was decent, but nothing special. didn't enjoy it as much as any of the routes in onii-chan daisuki. I'm looking forward to playing Kotori's route next

>>35454244
Kotori's route is the only one I dropped after the bedroom scene. Maybe I'm not into loli enough but I just didn't feel it.
