I'm playing that exact route.
>pic
Ouch...

>those conversations from the last thread

Damn I didn't know these threads were filled with occultist programmers.

>>36953223
Considering a good amount of anon here probably had to learn japanese through unconventional means, I'd say programming and other DIY activities that end up being valuable in playing VNs end up being easier to pick up.

>>36953223
Both programming and occultism are very popular on this board, on this website, and as topics for VNs.

>>36953269
I started learning Japanese because I was learning how to extract stuff from VNs as a hobby and I looked at some scripts and went 'hey, I can read most of these, the rest can't be that hard'.

How do you upgrade facilities in this? Got enough materials to upgrade but the message pop up says to raise the Guild level but is already 2, so upgrading the Training room to level 2 should be possible

what's the best way to force an old VN fullscreen? i'm trying to play 君が望む永遠 but alt+enter doesn't work

>>36953605
https://github.com/Blinue/Magpie/releases/tag/v0.6.1

>>36953045
>What are you looking forward to?
Is there a VN with non-promiscuous traditional female?

>>36953605
You probably just need to read the manual or look at the settings screen and find the actual way to enter fullscreen. Also you should be playing the Latest Edition.

>>36954379
Anon you should know that lack of answer is an answer in itself by now.

>>36953223
Talking about programming. Anyone knows a vn with realistic depictions of a programmer instead of the “...tap tap tap, I’m in!” kind of trope? Might be fun to read. (for nerds)

>>36954379
>non-promiscuous
>Promiscuity is the practice of engaging in sexual activity frequently with different partners or being indiscriminate in the choice of sexual partners.
Explains what you want anon. Virtually ang main heroine in most moeges only engage in sexual activity with the protagonist, hence non-promiscuous, or maybe my English is so shitty that I understand it wrong somehow.

>>36954304
how do you make it work? i tried some different settings with a few old vns I have here and all give the same error, which tls as
Rendering error: wicBmpClipper initialization failed (HRESULT=0x80070057)

>>36953223
Debugging software can make you feel like you're communing with otherworldly alien spirits.

>>36954728
dunno, works for me like this
maybe try enabling logging and contacting developer on github
only works on win10, also doesn't work with 4k display iirc

>>36954920
oh shit you're right, works now when I changed the resolution to 1080p
man looking and fhd after 2k is really -eyes but I guess sacrifice must be made

>>36955125
you can try using last version https://github.com/Blinue/Magpie/releases/tag/v0.7.0_preview1 only one upscale method but iirc it works with 4k

>>36955142
huh this one seems kinda bugged, graphic capture and gdi don't work but getting this weird scaling with dwm and dxgi

>>36955185
weird

>>36953605
The latest edition should definitely work fine on fullscreen. If I remember correctly there were actually two different fullscreen settings in there. I never figured out what the difference was but only one of them actually worked.

are there any vns that give you the true 冒険 feeling?
not like all of those shitty isekais that uses it for stupid comedy or as an excuse to get cute girls, but actually something more serious

>>36957194
Rance series

>>36957222
well i guess rance is the only thing that felt like a bouken but it's still rather a comedy about fucking girls for the most part

>>36957278
Celenaria, Seven Bridge

Got two images that I'd like translated: not much dialogue. Anyone willing to help?

>>36957400
No. Ask in /r/ or /int/.

>>36957194
There's not much adventure stuff when it comes to VNs.
I'd recommend games if you want actual bouken feel.
Elona is great, EO series too is incredibly good.
Or watch/read MiA if you haven't yet, or read OP if you can stomach shounen.
Also read Grimgar LN (do not watch the shit anime adaptation) if you want low level party getting dabbed on by everything and always managing to survive by the skin of their teeth.

Have anyone read trial of https://vndb.org/v32021?

>>36958826
Is Haruhiro still a whiny fag?

>>36958843
yes

>>36958826
>There's not much adventure stuff when it comes to VNs.
Too many CGs would be required. It's too hard.

>>36958852
He's grown a lot, that's for sure, especially considering all the shit that's been raining on him in the latest volumes.

>>36958949
How it was? Is action good? Is main heroine good?

>>36958981
Oh, she finally got her fucking dog. Btw did Ranta fucked her yet?

>>36958985
I really couldn't care less about action, but the girls are all good.

>>36959015
It will suck if action will be bad and there is a lot of it though.

>>36959004
I'm not sure since I'm like 3 volumes behind, but I'm pretty sure he won't anyway cause he's a wimp faggot as always.
Also vol.18 isn't out yet (release date 25/10).

>>36959054
Well in Bara no Maria, ln author wrote before Grimgar, characters had sex so maybe something will happen in Grimgar too.

Speaking of trials, how was https://vndb.org/v31136?

>>36959398
It felt like something from the early 2010s or late 2000s.
I'll probably end up buying the dl version when it comes out.

>>36959472
What game from that era is it most similar to?

>>36959571
Pretty much any of the akabeisoft + sub brand charages I've played from that time.

>>36954391
>>36955968
i am playing latest edition. VNDB says it's resolution is 1024x600 and when i click fullscreen on my 1920x1080 monitor it doesn't work.

>>36960507
Try the option in pic related. That should work.

>>36960507
Don't ever trust âge programming. When I played it I used this this called WindowWatcher, because my laptop is 1366x768 and the non-integer scaling for this game is so terrible it makes the game unplayable. http://www.airesoft.co.uk/windowwatcher

It sucks in various different ways, but it works. Kind of. The magpie thing people were talking about earlier is probably better but I don't think it would run very well on my toaster.

>>36960785
it runs fine on my 10 yo laptop with intel graphic
there are some lags when open menu etc but this doesn't matter for a vn

>>36960745
Thanks, this seemed to solve my problem

>>36960785
yeah the scaling for this game is shit. i had an easier time getting kanon to work.

>>36960507
This is some option in your GPU settings, scaling or something.

>>36961271
kanon was the easiest game to make work because it works perfectly with borderless gaming

>>36954879
MATLAB often gave me the impression that there really was such a thing as a Machine Spirit.

And I didn't how to please it.

>>36954879
Reverse engineering debugging without source code often feels like that. Debugging with source code, nah.

which one I should replay first .....

This installer looks like a shitpost

>>36962025
Why would you replay any of those?

>>36962048
A wave of nostalgia hit me like a truck, I just love games with big ass harems where heroines have interesting and unusual traits.

R.U.R.U.R tho has my favourite hard sci-fi setting.

And all "modern" VNs are complete generic garbage with generic heroines that lack any sort of interesting traits. I used to play at least one new monthly VN, not anymore.

Why is the Tokyo Necro sequel a DMM gacha game?

>>36952211
Bumping this, I've also wanted to know

>>36962621
Because that's the age we live in.

>>36962621
Fate/Grand Order was a massive success so everyone else wanted to capitalize on the same market

>>36962699
I'm extremely ignorant of the gatcha world but has any other VN company actually even created a successful gatcha game? It seems like they usually just flop.

>>36962699
Is it really the same market? These DMM games seem to be targeting people that would have enjoyed eroge if the industry wasn't dead, they have porn after all.
>>36962730
Hard to call successful when compared to something like FGO but August, Nexton, Waffle, Alicesoft games on DMM seem to be doing fine and some have been running for years. Ninetail just released a VenusBlood one but it's pretty bad, can't imagine it lasting long.

>>36962730
Did anyone here play the Aokana gacha? I keep reading all over 4chan that it was cuckshit where you were some self insert protag that could still fuck all the main girls because it was a different timeline where they never met the VN protag.

>>36953223
Who the fuck isn't a programmer these days?

>>36962907
It's one of the few middle-class jobs left. Thank god zoomers and younger are all tech illiterate so it will take AI to replace us if it ever gets to that point in our lifetimes.

>>36962818
>Is it really the same market?
I don't really know to be honest, I've never played any of those games. I assumed so since they're all gacha games and I feel like the main boom of those types of games happened after Grand Order's success

Why is he so tsundere

>>36954393
No, anon...
>>36954703
That she is not a modern female. Moege girls is still very modern.

Anon, use vndb and look for 大和撫子 already like a human being.

>background H voice plays
>suddenly hear a slow male grunting every 10 seconds
lol wtf

>>36963935
The game is caught between wanting to be about sluts and say that you should love sluts, but also doesn't want to go too hard down that theme and risk alienating the majority of people who buy VNs, so the sluts aren't heroines in the first game and they give up being sluts to be with MC anyways. It feels like they wanted to take risks and push boundaries but were scared of going too far and risking hurting sales. So you get Rei describing her backstory verbally several times but only one flashback scene where she gets fucked as a loli by a robot.

>>36964354

>>36964380

>>36964354
Do you really think the game would flop if they actually showed the SS girls fucking other guys? Since it actually does happen but you just don't see it.

>>36964451
>Do you really think the game would flop if they actually showed the SS girls fucking other guys?
I have no idea whether it would've actually flopped if they threw in h-scenes of the SS girls getting fucked by other dudes, but I think Qruppo thought the possibility of that happening was high enough they didn't want to risk it.

>>36964478

im bored as shit so i'll check out nukitashi before hentai prison releases
those two or so anons posting sold it to me

>>36964503
You should probably read nukitashi first anyways because if you don't like it you probably won't like henpri.

>>36964503
It's fun if you aren't a moebuta.

>>36964451
I'm sure that a certain group of vocal jp schizos would screech at the top of their lungs if Qruppo went for it.
Nukitashi being their first game under the Qruppo banner, they couldn't risk it even if they wanted.
Maybe they'll go crazy in a future game, which I'd love to see. We'll see.

>>36964299
Finished that scene and another. Here's the recording, 2 loops. The first time the weird voice plays after 15sec. It might actually be the chick just breathing deeply.
https://files.catbox.moe/65mts6.ogg

>>36964514
I loved it and I'm a moebuta though.

>>36964557

>>36964299
>>36964555
>male grunting
Nope, not even close, that's her breathing.

>>36964514
But it's literally made for moebutas

>>36964451
Absolutely. Nips are pretty autistic about this. It's a culturally constituted instinct to brittle at actual sluts.

>>36964529
>>36964451
I don't think it would flop because the main heroines themselves are still virgins. It's just that the character poll rankings would suffer and people wouldn't be as interested in having routes for them in the sequel.
I'm a moebuta who doesn't mind used goods so long as I don't actually see them fucking others, out of sight out of mind and all that. I assume the nukitashi target audience is mostly people like me, so if they had a sequel in mind from the start then it was a smart move.

>>36964720
It really feels like they had Nukitashi 1&2 as a single game, but had to rethink their plans due to the sheer size and cost of doing that.
If I'm right about that, then after releasing the first game they saw how well-received it was and decided to rework the second part into a sequel.

>>36964720
What if any of the main heroines wasn't a virgin? She isn't a slut like other girls in the island but she lost her virginity in the past. Will you chimp out? Just trying to understand moebutas.

>>36964765
Didn't they have an entire route about that?

>>36964720
I don't they are just used goods. They are turbo sluts.

>>36964768
She is a virgin.

What's up with an uptick in nukitashi posting for a past couple of threads? Half the threads are nothing but this garbage VN these days.

>>36964793
New faggot joined nukitashi circlejerk

>>36964793
>person reads VN
>person wants to talk about VN
>person posts VN
>other people who have read VN respond
truly it is a mystery why people want to discuss two of the most popular VNs of the past three years with a new one from the same company releasing imminently

>>36964793
Actually, at least two.
t. the other faggot who start playing nukitashi roughly at the same time

>>36964810
I wouldn't call them ""people"" desu
Just trend chasers. Obsessing over whatever is popular even if that shit is literal leftie propaganda.

>>36964817
I didn't think we had enough posters here for low-quality bait.

>>36964830
>anything I don't agree with is bait
Nice one, NPC. Keep it up. Go talk about how life-changing nukitashi's tranny antifa lgbt themes are.

>>36964498
This might be the single best moment in the entire first game. It was the perfect mix of Nukitashi humor and Shounen tropes.

>>36964810
It's just same shit every fucking time.

>>36964804
Usually people write a blogpost after completing a route or a VN. This nigga is just outright blogposting it like it's /vn/ or something, and asking insane questions.

>>36964846
He's shitposting about it on /vn/ too and they kicked him out.

>>36964793
I saw people talking a lot about it last month, so I finally decided to pick it up, read it, and now join any conversation possible because I probably won't get the chance again in the future. It's always a downer to finish a good VN from 5-10 years ago and have no one to discuss it with because people already moved on.

Though I assume the hentai prison trial might have also stirred it up a bit.

>>36964838
>This might be the single best moment in the entire first game
That's Otokodachi

>>36964926
Do you read VNs just to "discuss" with mentally ill brainlets who post here?

>>36964926
>it's a good VN bro
>haha yeah it's very good.
Nice discussion.

Nukitashi? More like no one cares tranny

>influx of people who post in /vn/
>massive decline in post quality
hmm

>>36964720
>I'm a moebuta who doesn't mind used goods
So you're not. You're a slutfag who should go back to 3DPD.

>>36964994
There was never any quality posting here to begin with.

>>36965021
True, but being at the top of the trash bin and at the bottom of it are two very different experiences.

>>36964942
No, but I like to get into drawn-out inflammatory arguments with people who like things I don't like. If I don't participate in any shitflinging about which heroine is the worst, it's like I didn't read the VN at all.

>>36965023
At that point you might as well take a dive and enjoy the madness

>>36965027
don't worry, as this thread regularly demonstrates, you don't have to have actually read a VN to think your opinion on it matters

>>36965027
>drawn-out inflammatory arguments with people who like things I don't like
But that stuff never happens here so I don't see your point. People here only reply to your post if they agree with you or else they won't reply because we have a tradition of labelling anyone who disagrees with us as trolls. Janny used to enforce this but he doesn't care anymore. Anons here are also pretty pacifist and avoid any confrontation.

>>36965034
You also regularly demonstrated that you are incapable of comprehending what a VN directly spells out to you.

>>36965043
that's because I can't read Japanese very well and rely on text hookers more than I should and my reading comprehension is quite low and I'm deeply ashamed of this and therefore I lash out and accuse everyone else of using text hookers every chance I get

>>36965039
>But that stuff never happens here so I don't see your point.

It was half a joke anon, sorry. I use other boards for my shitposting needs. I just like seeing other people posting screenshots and their reactions/impressions to scenes in VNs I read, dunno I can't explain it.
But it's not a two-way street, I don't pick up stuff *just* because people talk about it. After all these years I still haven't touched Subahibi since it doesn't click with me, even though at times it feels like everyone in the thread besides me has read it.

>>36965172
>I don't pick up stuff *just* because people talk about it
That's what you do
You picked up muramasa too just to discuss it with EOPs

>>36965201
Anon, what the fuck are you even talking about?

>>36965172
You're just a lonely fuck who finds social interaction in "discussing" VNs. That's why you care this about what VN is in vogue and then hop onto the bandwagon.

>>36965265

>she's blind

>>36964793
Started half-blogposting my playthrough last month, posting 1 scene/moment I liked every 2-3 days (fuck wageslaving) and I'm glad it generated discussion and even got some anons into reading it despite the game being 5 years old.
Not sure what the problem is, since the threads are usually dead anyways, even when something new releases.

>>36968717
It's just some dumb retard. God forbid someone posts something about an eroge in the eroge thread.

>>36968717
Some sane people don't want the entire thread to be flooded with this lefty slut garbage, retard.

>>36968790
>lefty
I think you are lost and might want get out of /jp/ asap

>>36968852
>nooo don't use that forbidden word
Fuck off
Truth is truth

>>36968717
It's one thing if people are discussing a VN but this shit honestly feels forced and too much

>>36968956
Maybe it's just one fag samefagging to oblivion. No VN generated this much garbage shitposting here consuming entire threads for a month.

>>36968717
just ignore the schizoposters and keep posting, i like nukitashi so it's fun remembering it again with your screenshots

I suddenly feel like blogposting nukitashi

>>36964793
as the end of last thread showed it's just MTLing EOPs who probably couldn't get attention in /vn/

>>36968956
There are now more posts in this thread that spawned from bitching about Nukitashi posting than there are actual Nukitashi posts.
You are a waste of oxygen.

>>36968790
why dont u post about some other game then
just look what ur gay ass autism caused, now the last 30+ posts are meta

>>36969013
>just be silent
That never changes anything.

>>36969013
I did but people only reply to nukitashi and that's why I hate it

>>36969066
Make better posts.

>>36969066
Let me guess, you're the retard asking for a VN with a "non-promiscuous traditional female"

>>36969084
Doesn't matter. People here only read super popular trash these days and endless shitpost it.

>>36969095
what happened, snowflake?

>>36969095
Unpopular VNs are unpopular for a reason, Anon

>>36969094
I didn't ask for anything. I just a wrote a review and left it at that. But nukitashi fags just shitpost their VN all the time as if they are shills.

>>36969066
yeah for that u have my sympathy

>>36969112
Yeah, because they're fucking trash for the most part.

>>36969095
The awful truth is that no one will ever understand your superior tastes anon. You were born i the wrong generation.

>>36969126
:^)

There are two types of anons. One who only follows massive popular releases and don't dive into the medium beyond it and others who actually read VNs. The problem is the former one takes one popular VN and reads/shitposts it for six months because he has nothing else to read. This dude >>36968717 literally admitted to it.

I liked Nukitashi, and fuck the haters.

What the fuck is going on?
Did qruppo finally got kyonai'd?

>>36969269
Discuss the "beyond the medium VNs" then instead of metaposting.
>I love reading unknown shit and brag about it, God I'm so fucking hard right now
Okay.

Reminder to always disregard any anon who complains without baring their own taste to public scorn. There is no benefit to engaging with cowards.

>>36969357
>he felt called out and is angry
Lol

>>36969357
>unknown
>anything that isn't giga popular is unknown and obscure
Yep, typical nukitrannies.

I want /vn/ to leave

>>36969405
Where? You?

I want /vn/ to stay

>>36969405
Stop posting in our /vn/, JOPkeks.
This is war.

>>36969399
>>36969381
ah yes, i TOTALLY love my kamige with 10 votes and 6.00 vote as average
it's totally DEEP medium and not just SURFACE

>>36969460
>with 10 votes and 6.00 vote as average
Strawman more cause that's the only think you can do

>>36969405
the problem is when they came a few years ago they never left. the only remote chance of making them fuck off is to either add something like "this thread is for anons who already fully understand japanese without the aid of texthooking blah blah blah" or similar to the OP and then live in the irc channel to point out every shitpost to a mod there or become a janny yourself like the hero we used to have. none of this is going to happen though, we're fucked and i see no way out of this

>>36969439
the faggot who originally shit up /vn/ years ago who claimed to be from here wasn't in the first place, he was just some DJT reject who messed with you guys because this thread was too slow

Muramasa is such retarded trash lmao

Nukitranny sucks

>>36969513
Nukitashi/hag fag is constantly posting in /vn/.

>Nukitashi

>>36969513
>years ago
Dude, 4 posters who regularly post here shitpost over there with such ferocity that /vn/ is devastated. Nukitashi posting happens over there too.

>>36969493
NOOO YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND MY SENSE OF TASTE

thinking how nukitashi 2 said trans rights and how an eroge is willing to be more provocative and truth-telling than most media, goodbye
nukitashi 2 also taught me to make the sjw woke eroge i’ve always dreamed of making and tell anyone else who think it’s a bad decision to fuck the police
very inspiring eroge that gave us the joke “starfucks”

I want brother like this ;__;

>>36969560
>>36969588
so what? am i supposed to be surprised that autism shitposting that started years ago has only gotten worse over time or something? i wouldn't be the least bit surprised if the faggot that started all this is still around and super happy he now has 2 threads to shitpost in and found some friends to join him or inspired other retards to follow in his footsteps before fucking off

i don't go to /vn/ but last i recall the thread was so fast that you could barely notice shitposting though

>>36969678
No one cares

so i just read a scene in nukitashi 2 where someone validates a trans woman character for who she is without even realizing it because it’s normal to them
she smiled and said thank you
and i am like

T_____________T

i can’t believe this game is fucking real
it’s not even like a huge scene. it’s just there. but seeing her smile when she realized how she’s accepted she is makes me go aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
holy shitttttttttttt nukitashi is a seriously blessing on eroge

One JOP post in /vn/, one EOP post in /jp/.
I know a lot of you love shitposting in /vn/ or make fun of EOPs in /v/.
. That's why we need the Law of Balance.

>>36969698
That was the worst scene in it

>>36969698
sounds like garbage

>>36969698
Is this true? I was planning to read it to discuss with you guys? Maybe I shouldn't

>>36969753
Anons here only talk about sex jokes aspect of it but it's unironic political manifesto

>>36969753
Yeah, there is a trans character in Nukitashi 2 and one of the end morals of the game is learning to accept everyone for who they want to represent themselves to be.

>>36969753
Yes lol

>>36969698
This is gayest thing I've read this week and I read several josou seme doujins. Consider suicide.

>>36969698
That's why I don't read. And I won't read Hentai Prison after it's release until someone here confirms it as tranny free.

>>36969796
>seme
Tsukino Kiiro's voice in her fuyukuru seme h-scene is hot as fuck.

finished the first route of the nukitashi. sure didn’t expect the game to dive deep into how the state could foster an ideology that normalizes misogyny and no-con sex before mentioning the infamous nazi criminal eichmann
that was a ride — heard it becomes even more political lmao
it’s cool to see a work from the eroge subculture be this critical of japanese sexual politics and the imperial efforts in ww2. I want to see how deep this rabbit hole is, very excited about it!

What do you guys do when you see line you don't get? I just move onto next line and get it from context.

Never happens to me

Glad you can't even post about VNs in this thread without people shitting their pants

>>36969834
Move on, maybe return to it after a few more lines. Seen enough cases where it's supposed to be vague and gets explained right after

>>36969884
>gets explained right after
Pretty much this. Just wondering what other people do.
This one is deep into self-denial tho >>36969877

>>36969880
Joke is on you, I don't ever wear pants

Just read the whole scene where Naoya and Rin talk about god and art and I didn't understand shit. I wish it was only a few lines I don't get.

Also I just noticed that most of the routes are incest lol.

>>36970012
That scene just literally explains sakuuta themes to you. But sca-ji is fag who wrote that dialogic interaction in a dry unappealing way because he can't write actual interactions.

>>36969514
>>36969712
It is possibly the only work in creation which is both based and cringe.

>>36970012
>talk about god
Since it is SCA-JI, you can just think they said the following insightful sentence - "God is like, relative, bro, and because truth is his eternal attribute, it is, like, also, relative bro. Koufuku ni ikiyo!!!".

>>36969712
>One JOP post in /vn/, one EOP post in /jp/.
based... i have ascended... i will now follow the Law of Balance and post in Japanese on /vn/ and then post in English on /jp/....

>>36970012
Rin believes that art and beauty is an objective thing that doesn't need an observer to justify itself. Naoya believes that it is something justified through people and what they experience from it. I think that's the main point you need to get from it.

>>36970149
>Rin believes that art and beauty is an objective thing that doesn't need an observer to justify itself.
Let me guess, she is probably "masterfully refuted" by SCA-JI in the story?

>>36970098
Don't call my Muramasa cringe. All genre parodies were kino.

>>36970149
>bro it's subjective
Wow very deep and insightful
Now I don't have to read sakuuta

>>36970171
Rin pretty much just disappears after V. I assume she's going to be more focus in Toki.

>>36970173
It is a true meta and anti-meta work which itself followed the Law of Balance in being cringe and based.
I unironically think some parts were pure cringe (like the konjin stuff, and rape, pure cringe transcending even parody), but then some parts were pure based (sorimachi and kageaki and hikaru's interactions). Narahara-先生 was possibly genuinely bound by law of balance while writing it.

>>36970149
>>36970174
>Wow very deep and insightful
My life is... changing,.... bros....

>>36970195
You mean those unnecessary random rape scenes that exist clearly only for H? Except of course Chacha golden scene.

>nukitashi
>sakuuta
>muramasa

>>36970012
Bro did you really just admit you haven't read The Decay of Lying?

>>36970229
It's almost like people don't care about this garbage medium beyond those 20 good VNs which is reasonable.

>>36970038
how come dostoevsky gets a pass to have a scene when two characters sit down to talk about the existence of God but sca-ji can't do it too?

>>36970296
Because he's dead.

>>36970296
Because one is based and the other cringe.

>>36970306
Well dostoevsky is pretty cringe I agree. He got so butthurt after fake execution lmao. Turgenev was right dabbing on him.

>wake up
>over 100 new posts
>already know it's all shitposting

>>36970296
I am talking about how that interaction unfolds in a mechanical way where characters just infodump at each other. There's garbage like a character mentions a concept and then the other character quotes wikipedia even though both parties know about this shit. It's pretty dry and lacking in personality. You could also like place that discussion in an interesting context instead of just randomly cutting to it.

>>36970347
Sca-ji just sucks as a writer. He should just write nonfiction. Sakutoki is an improvement.

>>36970347
Tbh it wouldn't have been a problem if this scene wasn't 40 minutes long

>>36970363
>Sakutoki is an improvement.
It's fucking unbelievable how decent sakutoki trail is compared to how terrible sakuuta was.

>>36970408
maybe you need to reread sakuuta because I can't fathom how someone would like sakutoki but not like uta

>>36970416
Because you seem to think I didn't like sakuuta because of its themes instead of its bullshit writing. Sakutoki is just good parts of sakuuta with relatively better writing. I didn't entirely hate sakuuta but it was 90% bad.

>>36970416
>rereading sakuuta
Just skip common route, first two routes, half of zypressen, half of shizuku route, and other garbage and you'll be left with 5 hours of content.

>>36970363
>>36970408
>>36970416
>>36970436
>>36970466
I honestly don't understand why you guys think one is better than the other when you're comparing a complete game with a trail version.

>>36970466
Why would you skip one of the best scenes in the game though?

>>36970492
We're just comparing difference in writing style/quality. Not judging overall VN.

>>36970492
That's not what's going on here. Besides we already knew that sakutoki will turn out like this because sca-ji has been repeatedly saying he's not gonna write it like an eroge.

>>36970340
mods have pretty much abandoned /jp/ at this point and the place has correspondingly turned into a shithole

Can't you fucks talk about anything other than sakuuta or muramasa or nukitashi
It's just same fucking talking points every fucking time

>>36970615
Here's an idea, how about instead of bitching about people talking about things you don't like, you read something and try to start a conversation about it? (I know the reason you won't is because it would require you to actually read instead of just complaining about other people reading things and the content of visual novels you haven't read.)

>>36970643
Here's an idea
Read more than 3 VNs

>>36970671
>here's an idea, how about you read something and discuss it yourself instead of complaining
>no, you read something for me and then start a discussion, I just want to complain

>>36970671

We're faster than /vn/ today
Good job, bros.

God dammit the Illya is really cute.

>>36970707
wait, this isn't /vn/?

>>36970735
You can tell it's not because the janitors sometimes remember that /vn/ exists but nobody bothers to moderate here.

>imouto who has the hots for her oniichan asks him to help her out by listening to her read the script lines of the little sister character she voices in what I'm guessing is an eroge that lets you fuck your imouto
>insists she practices in his room
Holy shit Konatsu, you're one sly fox.

finished the second route of nukitashi
let's just say i didn't expect the game to tackle on the objectification of women in the context of soshage gacha mechanics
and it seriously dismantles it hard in the name of Pure Rom-Com Love. this is the most ridiculous game ever lmao.
this game is so fucking ATSUI.
every line is either some crazy joke or a spicy hot take about capitalism holy shit
get yourself a bf who doesn't give a shit about your gacha rank is because he loves you too much. my heart goes kyun when the protag goes "who gives a shit about SSR, my wife is 1 star but she is my wife -- she's an ALL-STAR"

The moment I've been waiting for since I started reading ninki seiyuu is finally here broskis... God I fucking live for this shit.

I love my wife yuki

>let's just say i didn't expect the game to tackle on the objectification of women in the context of soshage gacha mechanics
>every line is either some crazy joke or a spicy hot take about capitalism holy shit
I don't remember either the gacha part (outside of a few gacha jokes) or anything at all about capitalism.
Is he just saying this because the main villain of Rei's route is motivated significantly by wanting lots of money? That's not exactly a deep criticism of capitalism.

>>36970826
Mitcher is a whore

>>36970861
>>36970775
No one cares

>>36970615
So, what do you wanna talk about?

>>36971014
Do I need to read Kuroinu 1 before I read Kuroinu 2?

>>36971021
I don't know, both look like shit so read something better.

>>36971021
they are both just nukiges. you loterally wont miss anything important even if you only read the sex scenes

looks like all of the djt/reddit/vn/ tards finally left so i can finally ask my bros
is there a difference in which order should you read the -What a beautiful- series? haven't read any liar soft so far so thought to finally get in
some says there is no difference some says it's better to read in release order

>>36971403
release order

>>36971403
In general, release order is the safest way to enjoy any series out there.

>>36971452
>>36971411
i just don't really feel like reading the Souten no Celenaria because it looks like furry shit, would rather skip if possible or maybe read one day just to finish the series

>>36971504
At the very least, H-scenes don't go past level 2 in the furry scale for females.
Also, the tone of this one is quite different from future ones.
I'd say it is somewhat safe to ignore it, but I wouldn't myself.

>>36971589
is the series sharing just the setting/world or there are also some themes that carry on to the further works?
also, are the previous works of that author any notable?

Will you play my game anon?

>>36973150
Isn't that all-ages?

>>36954379
Bump

>>36973517
Thankfully, only the console versions are censored.

>>36973150
>>36973574
I've never seen an eroge release get both porn and console versions at the same time before.

薔薇人間

>>36973574
And I just confirmed that's true, so yes, it seems the 29th will be a fine day to be a PC VN player.

>>36973150
Anything special about or just another single heroine moenukige?

>>36973983
Looks like just another single heroine moenukige. I'll go for it, unless anything bigger than better gets released in the same day.

>>36964573
I listened to it again. At 16-17 seconds the breathing and her moaning can be heard at the same time. That's what throws me off.

>>36967397
>that's pretty good otherwise
The game sucks though and the HBGV is like 200% as loud as the normal voice with no separate settings.

>>36967447
Not her. She only has 5 roles and half of them are without porn.

Hi guys,

This is a bit off topic- there is an untranslated VN that I've played where I am absolutely in love with the main theme / OST.

Would any anon be interested in transcribing the lyrics for me into romanized Japanese? I'd like to be able to sing it.

https://vocaroo.com/1mm45JZTE3Zm is the link- thank you in advance!

For anyone curious- VN is Uchi no Imouto by Argonauts.

>>36975328
Here's a better link.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wm6j8XGZJsA
I transcribed it by ear and I'm 99% it's accurate, but here's the catch: it's in japanese.
The tax for this is that you find a way to get it into romaji by yourself. Enjoy.
https://files.catbox.moe/4wxw6j.txt

>>36975747 (me)
And of course, I find errors in it after uploading it.
Here's the fixed one.
https://files.catbox.moe/794ezx.txt

>>36975747
>>36975835
I'd like to help, but those links aren't working.
I'm sure you can just google 'romaji converter' and fine one on the internet, right?

>>36975869
Probably. That's your homework.
As for it showing stupid shit, change the page encoding to UTF-8 or save it directly to disk.

>>36975835
Hi, I'm the question asker, I believe >>36975869
was a good Samaritan trying to translate on my behalf.

I tried a few things such as changing my browser language to JP and looking at the source code, but while the vast majority of it is in characters, there are a few blank boxes / question marks etc. Just to confirm- those are errors correct? If so, I will try other ways of extracting the data so that I have the right transcription.

Thank you a TON for your help, and also for the better link (for some reason I didn't find anything on YT/other sources so I had to record it myself, whoops)

>>36975900
The link is a text file with japanese text, and the encoding is Unicode, or UTF-8.
And the errors were spelling ones, so everything should be showing as japanese characters.

You should seriously stop spoonfeeding, I doubt that EOP knows how to download a text file and open it in a proper editor.

>>36975951
This would be spoonfeeding for you and me, but not for an EOP.
Plus, you have to start somewhere, and what better occasion than of something you like?

>>36975951
I think I'm probably incapable of a lot of things, but I would have figured it out I'd like to think. I've been on 4chan for just over 15 years now, and essentially these are some of the first posts I've made.

Sorry for being spoonfed and being an EOP, but at the same time, I am happy and grateful that kind anons were willing to assist. I'll get to work on learning the song and maybe learn some extra Japanese to boot, so everyone wins right?

>>36975869

Been doing nofap for two weeks just for this game. It better be good.

decided to start out my liar soft journey from this one, didn't know there were any other western-style vns outside of django, let's see how did they realize it here

this game sucked me dry jesus christ

>>36978308
they're all great but personally I like reika the most, she's so cute damn. However managing a harem seems like impossible practically speaking, one simply does not have enough cum to love all girls equally

>>36978308

>>36975144
>HBGV is like 200% as loud as the normal voice with no separate settings
Damn, I hate that. H background volume ruining H is one of the shitty things ever. They should always make sure that is configurable.

lmao this game turned out to be completely the opposite of what I expected
actually expected some kind of serious story but got 4th wall comedy instead about hentai priest-impotent-masochist that was traveling looking for someone who could arouse him and the girl that came to the west looking for her father but have no choice but to help him to get aroused because it's the only way to get the mana to be able to fight monsters that for some reason evaded the west
you have to choose one of like 10 different sexual plays of various difficulties and the way to convince her for that play and then roll the dice to get h scenes
the battle minigame is also pretty funny in the manga style with hilarious comments by protag along the way
actually having way more fun than expected so far

>>36954379
Bump.

>>36981073
Define what kind of a woman you want. Do you even want sex scenes? If no, search for Yamato Nadeshiko Heroine and No Sexual Content (maybe also limit your search for VNs that are set in the past if you want more immersive experience of pre-degeneracy women). No sodomy (anal etc.)? That's most moege, thankfully. No slutty behaviour/talk during sex? That's pretty restrictive, but shouldn't be hard to find. Baby making? Based, there are tags for that. I like https://vndb.org/c54972.. Ignore the feminists, women should have kids when they're young, lest they give birth to autists like me. In fact, pre-third wave feminism is only partially wrong in saying that women can have both kids and a career. It's just that kids should come first.

Thank you so much for your assistance as well! I would thank you using Japanese but I don't want to look like an idiot.

For >>36975747, I used a couple of different websites to translate it before I relied on the translations provided by the other two anon, so I did my best to make sure I did some of the work.

I'll likely be spending a decent amount of time figuring out a piano arrangement to play this with and maybe decide if I want to produce or mix it as well, but once I'm feeling a bit better about the sound I'll post a Vocaroo. No promises, and also don't expect anything good. I'm more passionate about music than actually any good at it.

Thanks again to everyone who helped.

>>36982630
Cute pervert.

>>36983400
I think we all know who the real pervert is.

>>36983777
Well I think pervert describes literally every character in the game

>>36983925
月角島　is my favorite character so far.

>>36984118
That scene is hot as fuck.

It really is, it's actually one of my favourite H scenes in all of eroge. Watanabe is a genius.

Is fuyukuru good enough to be worth reading even though I'm not a fan of yurige?

>>36984340
I'm very much a yurifag and I couldn't stomach it.

>>36984348
So does that mean, since I don't like yurige, I'll like it?

>>36984340
The H-scenes aren't very 百合百合, even though they are girl-on-girl, if that makes any sense. Also, one of the girls is futa.

>>36984340
Well in your case I would just read harukuru and go from there

>>36984340
i don't know but i heard yurifags didnt like it
as for me, my autism about all girl casts prevents me from reading it

>>36984340
Depends if you're just not a fan of yuri or if you actually hate yuri and can't stomach it at all. I am not a yurifag, but i don't hate it either, so i did enjoy.

Did anyone here play Quartett?
I dl'd the standard edition that is supposed to be fully voiced but for some reason, there is no voice in it
Is there some kind of voice patch or maybe someone have the working version?

>>36987413
I've played Quartett.
I also hardly remember anything about it besides the nice art.

>>36987413
Try this one. It is in english, but it's confirmed as voiced.
https://sukebei.nyaa.si/view/1948204

>>36987736
i already even found some voice+tl patch but for some reason, the voice only works together with the tl file and doesn't work by itself
how do they even manage to make their shit so retarded

ok i guess the only way to play it now is to just watch the ps2 jikkyou on yt and then just scroll to the moment where there is supposed to be h scene since they aren't voiced anyway

>>36988426

>>36989362
I'm pretty sure it's just the game saying it found no system data in the memory card.

>>36989383
yea but how i'm supposed to fix that, idk only emulated for ps1 before

>>36989457
Have you made sure there's a memory card in the emulated system and, if so, have you tried continue pressing buttons?
That's just a warning message, after all.

Oh no

that just means there's no save data yet, happens on first start
just press whatever the confirm button is
