Am I the only one who makes a new save every time I save? I usually end up filling up my slots before I'm halfway done with something.

I can't understand why this guy is always so desperate to make a new thread

based real thread

>>42116132
I used to do this. Now I only make new saves at pivotal moments, and overwrite otherwise.

Is anonymous;code worth getting a console for?

>>42116648
Most of them come out on PC.

>>42116648
It's literally the worst entry in the whole franchise

>>42116932
That would be Robotics;Note.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFpSptT_wZM

>>42116935
Robotics notes has better characters and production values. It's also longer.

>>42117044
No it;doesn't.

Help me pick an Eushully game bros.

>>42117175
nice arguments you got there, please tell me more about how a game with literally 0 slice of life scenes has strong characters.

Any good releases for December?

>>42122056
Maybe, if you like h there is the new milk factory, escude, and Nan's stuff I guess

>>42122056
Mahoyo R is the biggest december release (came out in the 8th). Will probably sell a ton. Aside from that there's a couple during the normal end of month timing.

>>42120659
why are you seething about gintama, cuck? too many references flying over your head? maybe you should stop being a casual ironic weeb then

>>42116106
Why previous thread link was two threads ago?

>>42116132
one slot a day is the way to go if it's just text, if you need to reread a scene you'll have to skip one day worth of reading at worst

if it's something like rance you should use as many slots as possible

>>42122872
The last one was made by a retard.

>>42117190
Seconded. I'm also wondering if ordering matters due to the lore connected worlds.

>>42123549
Just play in order then, tranny.

>>42116170
Clearly it's some crossboarding faggot, anyone from /jp/ wouldn't make another thread when the previous one is still on page 8

>>42116170
>>42124101
he's already vandalised the OP so just use the old one until it dies and use the proper thread

>>42124101
The previous one (with the fucked up eroge title) was made when the the one before that was on page 5. Sounds like you're just upset that you lost this time and don't get to force your shitty title down our throats.

>>42124240
Fair enough. I guess a new thread will have to be made when the old one dies. I refuse to use this faggot's threads

>>42125211
With Textractor (which is a much improved ITHVNR I believe) you don't really need H-codes anymore. In the rare case that something doesn't work with it you might, but there are brute force methods you can use with it to try and hook something.

Oh nice, this is just what I was looking for, thanks!

>魔法使いの夜
>Witch on the Holy Night
Why do they do this

>>42126214
It's much worse in English.

>>42126555
It's not because English has enough sounds to properly transliterate most of languages in the world. Japanese is effectively monkey babble for people who can't use their mouths to form anything close to the full range of sounds.

>>42126596
nigger you retarded gaijins literally renamed our currency to "yen" because you couldn't fucking pronounce 2 letters

>>42126596
>Japanese is effectively monkey babble for people who can't use their mouths to form anything close to the full range of sounds.
Ah, fuck off Slav. Nobody wants to pronounce your angry language.

>>42126600
Slavic languages are even easier than Japanese to pronounce. He was dissing shit languages like English and French, not Japanese

>>42126599
If you are even challenging this point you are an EOP moron, or an ugly, pan-faced, slant eyed Jap dealing with the stereotypical Jap inferiority complex, upset that I pointed out a very basic fact about the language.

Katherine -> Kyasarin
Reasoning -> Riizuningu
Hellsing -> Herushingu
Macbook Pro - Makkubukku Puro
Virus - Wirusu

Transliteration into Japanese sounds retarded because Japanese has to approximate incoming sounds that don't exist, because it has so few itself. The incoming words get completely butchered. The other way around is not true. While I enjoy reading Japanese in Japanese, it's monkey babble for people who didn't evolve enough to be capable of making a full range of sounds with their mouths.
>>42126600
Native English speaker, and I'm not Slavic. You might be projecting.

now thats a mic drop

>>42116132
I just make new saves at selections.

>>42126717
>Native English speaker
The same people who add unnecessary accents to anything. Don't think you're any better, Anglo.

>>42126717
I love how you don't even disprove his point.

>>42126599
It's called "yen" for historical reasons, because え used to be pronounced like "ye".

>>42117644
No, I want to die anyway.

>>42126596
at the very least japs pronounce french way better than anglo
クーデター and クロワッサン are phonetically much closer than whatever croaking sound come out of anglo's throats

>>42126462
It's cool.

>Age is adding sumika route from Extra, Meiya from unlimited and the coup d'etat arc from Unlimited to their fucking gacha game
The absolute state of this fucking company. I guess now I have to mentally prepare for Resonative being a section in their mobile game if it ever does happen.

>>42128175
At least finish adapting Kashgar into anime instead of leaving it at Sadogashima you fucks.

>>42128343
did they fucking really? I'm like 3 episodes behind

>>42128415
Yeah they didn't even finish the anime. I was sort of expecting a movie announcement or something after the last episode aired, but nothing. The official twitter basically just said "read the VN for the rest of the story". What a disaster. It's like everything is run by senile boomers over there.

>>42101305
>Most of the anons who wrote really long reviews here in previous years moved to discord
Which one?

>>42116106
>What are you playing?

Just came into pic related and I've never busted so hard laughing at the gooey amount of shimoneta. This is amazing.

>>42130284
Did you read Nukitashi?

>>42130408
>Nukitashi

I have not but I assume it's also as good as this one since it's made by the same company.

>>42130447
I just asked because Henpri has a few Nukitashi references that will fly over your head if you haven't read that. Also Nukitashi has way more shimoneta to the point where it gets annoying

>>42126462
did you like attack on titan title?

>>42130642
They should have gone with The Eotena Onslaught instead.

>>42130284

You know I believe you you like the game but is it as GOOD as people make it to be or is this general invaded by shills of these devs

>>42130702
Wow, people are talking positively about something relatively new. Surely this must be the shill arm of the cartel(who by the way still definitely cares about this place) or Qruppo itself holding this general in its firm grip.

>>42130718
Yes

>>42130702
>or is this general invaded by shills of these devs

I don't know what you are talking about since I only really visit this general a few times and that's when I really want to talk about a particular VN.

>but is it as GOOD as people make it to be

Well, do you like Shawshank Redemption? Because that's the vibe I'm getting from it with all the absurdity that comes with a VN with sexual content. I just started though so it could turn to shit later on but I doubt that since the main focus is comedy so far.

>>42130734
I should also add the art is nice and the 'animation' to be more lively compared to a lot of VNs.

>>42130750
Something about the art feels off to me. I can only describe it as feeling Western.

>>42130778
No idea what you mean by that. It's definitely 'different' but I wouldn't call it western by any means. It fits the more grim setting of the prison if anything.

Sana Edition

>>42130702
>but is it as GOOD as people make it to be
It's good but it gets overhyped a lot.
The amount of CGs is way too low for its length.
Spriteless characters everywhere. I don't want to stare at empty backgrounds all the time.
The routes are too similar and the grand route was a bit disappointing plotwise. Seriously stop speedrunning the other routes in the grand route. Use a fucking ladder structure or something (they won't because then they can't brag about their 4MB script anymore)
No fucking harem 4P scene wtf man

It's fine for them to be a little different as long as both are official titles. If it's a translation though then it's wrong.

Innocent Grey stuff is usually pretty snowy.

I read katan's review of Mahoyo and now I want to kill him. Any other interesting reviews besides Muramasa/sakuuta? I want to feel pure hatred.

>>42140054
>ジサツのための１０１の方法
I meant more something like a romance that's so warm and sweet that it'll make me want to kill myself for playing it alone on Christmas.

It's like I'm really reading a qruppo game.

I keep having an issue where Samenana 'starts' but the game doesn't actually appear on screen and there's nothing I can do to actually get it to show up on screen. Even full-screen mode doesn't fix it. The only 'fix' I've found is deleting the save data file which somehow makes the game appear on-screen the next time I start it, but I've already had to do that twice and it's getting really annoying to skip through the game again. Is there a solution to this?

I feel betrayed by anyone who has ever said Kyonyuu Fantasy has good writing or good stories. Once again I am reminded that one can simply not trust the general consensus on these kinds of things, though to be fair I should have realized that people would be more inclined to praise a game if it's filled with hot big-titted babes having sex with the MC.

I'll keep this brief. I started playing these games because I like big tits and divine beings having sex. Kyonyuu Fantasy 3 tempted me with Athena & co being heroines until eventually I caved. What I was met with was a series with incredibly stupid writing. 頭が悪いテキスト as they would say in the land of the rising sun. Yes, to be clear, I am an elite JOP that knows Japanese. I've been reading this kinda shit for six years, and despite being an ignorant hairy gaijin, even I was put off by how awful the writing in this game was - the literal prose itself gave me a headache. It legitimately feels like it was written by a middle schooler and I mean that sincerely - it reminds me a lot of Narou works written by young people. Honestly, it has worse writing than a Narou work my JSL friend wrote, but that's getting off topic.

Basically, the lines are bland and short. They carry very little description and feel like an Orc trying to grunt out a story. The protagonists all sound like people with mental disabilities, and I don't even say that to be edgy, they sincerely remind of me of cavemen." Big boobs! I wanna fuck big boobs! You. You smell good. Lemme fuck big boobs!" is actual dialogue you will hear from them, with only a little exaggeration on my part.

Even looking past the blandness and chunkiness of the prose though, the writing itself is still trash - the characters and plot are awful. The characters are one dimensional and have zero depth. They never say anything interesting. When the MC or his male pals joke around it's stupid puns that aren't clever. The heroines fall for MC over nothing, sounding like stupid teens the whole time. The plot itself is stupid. Things happen in quick sequence and involve a respectable number of male characters, which is why I think some people are quick to say KF has good writing. In reality, though, the plots are paper thin and beyond the fact that stuff is happening (which is admittedly not something all VNs can boast), there's nothing even remotely good about them. Villains are uninteresting. There's no real drama or meaningful stakes in the overarching plot. It's just the protagonist going from one place to another while fucking big tit girls in a way that accomplishes his goal somehow.

None of this is unique for a nukige, but what's unique is how Kyonyuu Fantasy is hailed as THE nukige fantasy series. It's hailed as having great plots with above average writing. Even the translators at Mangagamer suck KF's dick, which is baffling to me. Now that I've actually played them, I feel betrayed by almost the entire nukige community - which I say with some intentional exaggeration, but seriously, I've never seen a single bad word about Kyonyuu Fantasy. Just overwhelming praise, when in reality it sucks.

Look, I get it. The art is good, and everyone loves a pervy dude going around fucking hot girls during an ascent in power. It's dumb fun. And I do appreciate that Kyonyuu Fantasy attempts to have a plot with a decent number of male characters. I can respect it. But holy FUCK do people overrate it for those reasons. Holy FUCK! It's so bad! The writing is some of the worst I've ever seen any VN! They may try, but holy FUCK do they fail! It's just... God, it's just so bad! I can hardly even believe myself just how much this series fucking sucks. I have to keep opening the game and re-reading scenes to remind myself that indeed, it was written by a middle schooler and every characters sounds brain damaged.

Jesus. Anyway, I'm done. I just wanted to yell into the void that I was shocked and emotionally traumatized by how much a beloved franchise sucked dick. God damn what a disappointment. I was so excited to go through the three KF3 games and now I won't be playing the other two of them in disgust.

>>42144836
So is that a Nier reference?

This protagonist comes up with an intricate plan to get gradually closer to a girl, involving an accomplice and an unspecified amount of time of preparation (a couple weeks at least?), and the payoff is just to get her into a deserted classroom and rape her by force. After which, of course, she becomes immediately compliant.
What was the point of all that shit? Just get a van and nab her from the street if that was the goal.

>>42144836
Yeah but every time they make a reference they have like 3 other lines after it nudging and winking which detracts from it, Like with the M1 grandpri joke and the Saber parody. Haven't seen any more since i'm getting filtered like a pavlov dog by the the Fellatio button.

>>42149535
It's revolutionary. It's set a new standard for nukige. I still haven't finished the first h-scene yet

>>42149535
>>42150070
How does this work? Is it just the same scene with a different background?

>>42150392
Essentially, every single one of the 9 main heroines has a unique fairly well animated blowjob scene, and you can trigger it anytime by clicking on the button then clicking the heroine on-screen. It's like how some games let you click on the heroine's tits or give them headpats or whatever, but with a fully animated fellatio scene.

cloudy days where

>>42151249
Is the animation better than previous entries in the series?

Can you guys rec me some good Netori games? So far, the Studio Pork games have been really good. The other brand that makes Netori games (Anim) however looks like they produce pure showelware.

>>42152119
Significantly, not as good as Role Players but a huge step up.

>>42153091
What is showelware?

>>42153091
Most of Anim's games are netorare or netorase, their only netori series are the mesu games , which are alright (and I guess there's some netori routes in their netorare games but I wouldn't count those. I don't think the anim mesu games are as good as studio pork but they're quite serviceable, I wouldn't call them shovelware.

Why noratoto is so fucking unfunny? Absolutely love marco and monkeys, but dropped noratoto half-way through Yuuki route.

>>42165319
I had the exact same experience when i went back for it after finishing Marco/Monkeys. Couldn't even get past the trial content since it just wasn't as good, which is somewhat of a compliment for Hato since he vastly improved in a relative short amount of time. Getting rid of the 地の文 is the biggest factor but overall his unique style ( a fun ride where only Hato knows where the fuck it's going and what turns it will take) only pops of in later games. Whereas Noratoto 1 is more 王道 galge.

>>42165651
Noratoto is fine as long as you stick to the main route, though the later part is going to be meh even then. Both the first and the second are largely fun in the common route.
I couldn't stand Monkeys at all though. So for me it's a big step backwards. Largely when it comes to characters. The cast in Noratoto and Marco was way better as far as I'm concerned. The only good thing about Monkey's cast was the main girl. Fine and all, but unlike the others, it has enforced route order -> drop.

>>42173232
I thought Steins;Gate is Nitro Plus. Maybe they get most of the money.

I got curious and I don't think there's any other currently alive thread that would be better suited to answer, so I guess I'll ask here
What's the story with Milk Factory?
What happened to SQUEEZ?
Did they just rebrand a la Examu -> Team Arcana?

>>42173729
>What's the story with Milk Factory?
Seems to have been absorbed by RED.
>SQUEEZ
Don't know them.
>Examu -> Team Arcana?
They the ones who made Arcana Heart? Then seems like they still own the rights.

>>42173922
SQUEEZ has a long history of eroge featuring profoundly voluptuous girls, to the point where you can instantly tell a game was made by them by the sheer audacity of a girl's tits.
They appear to have stopped, but in their place, this new Milk Factory studio is doing the exact same thing with more or less the same series. So I was wondering what the story behind that was.

Examu has suspended operations as of 2020, and all developments and supports were transferred over to Team Arcana then. Basically the exact same people but with a different name. I was wondering if it was more or less the same situtation.

Latest BST up on Rin.

>>42184594
Well, he >>42125211 didn't say, but he's probably trying to machine translate some old(er) untranslated VN. You can also use them to dump script for lexical analysis when there's no good script extractor, or help with the unvoiced lines if you're blind/reading impaired/illiterate (like those Japanese over at hakadoru) or whatever. In any case, it's better to have them than not.

>So much VN to read

>>42185116
He writes some things I'd hope are correct, aka that padding isn't popular anymore. I just don't believe that's correct. Sakura Moyu isn't that old yet, and I know there is one more active writer that I think released another game this year, that pads the living shit out of the entire text by permanent repetition of information.
I suppose this is more about padding with unnecessary chars/routes than the text itself, but I still think both go hand in hand. They are done for the same reason: Scenario inflation.

That said, otherwise I agree with what he says, at least the general stuff. I haven't played the game, so I can't say anything about that. I didn't like the game before the writer was working at, but I don't even know what their part was in that either. Maybe I consider it at some point.. but probably not anytime soon.

No.
At risk of death, but not dead, and not alone.

>>42191174
Outside of typemoon it's just light that produces quality chuunige. From propeller, I think only Evolimit is worth it. Ayakashibito had too many things working against it for me. I never touched Fortissimo so I can't speak for that.

After hundreds of hours of reading, I still can't figure out why they do this stupid shit

Chuuni is just an alternative word for novelge for functioning human beings, with an actual creative plot. The only cringe shit is moegarbage designed to appeal to manchildren and nukige. I didn't really check if those are on his list or not though.

>>42198495
>Chuuni is just an alternative word for novelge for functioning human beings, with an actual creative plot. The only cringe shit is moegarbage designed to appeal to manchildren and nukige.
Chuuni is objectively the most juvenile genre of plotge. I'm not saying this as bad thing, just find it ironic that someone who loves chuuni stuff complains about manchildren

>>42198495
>>42199012
Chuuni's appeal to juveniles is literally in the word. Moe is for people who grew out of their chuuni phase and have to deal with the harshness of the real world. In the end it's both escapism with a different flavor.

lost 4 hours of playing 街 because i fucked up save states on my emulator like a retard. this game doesn't even seem to have a speed up text function so i have to sit here mashing circle for an hour. kill me

>>42199124
Just use the emulator's speed up?

>>42199012
It's not though. It's literally just standard plot novelge but with slightly more difficult writing and perhaps slightly philosophical/heavy themes.
>>42199058
Moe is for escapism for retarded manchildren and losers, period. If you like Moe something went wrong with your development as a person. It just implies so many things at once: you're mentally weak, you're entertained by things that have no substance which means your IQ is probably low, you have no interests, etc. Not you in particular, just the kind of person who is exclusively attracted to moeshit. In fact even the fucking Disney Channel has more substance than the average moeshit game. VNs, and even anime in general, being invaded by retarded moeshit manchildren was the worst thing to ever happen. Ever wonder why the second half of the 90s up until 2006~2007 or so had so many timeless 神アニメ? There wasn't as much moeshit. Thankfully it's sharply declined.

What's the highest IQ moege?

>>42199177
it goes so fast that you might accidentally mash wrong on a choice, and the choices aren't super visually distinct + sometimes you have to check a keyword and jump to another character's route to progress the story so if you miss that you have to go back on the route map. augh

>>42199183
As always, the chuunitard cannot comprehend a world outside his juvenile mind. Sad.

As always, the manchild is mad that someone pointed out the obvious.

Hour long low-budget purple prose padded fights that get resolved by a deus ex machina are not 'substance'

>>42199328
Reading retards do nothing from beginning to end is not substance. You're a manchild and need to stop digging.

>>42199328
>low-budget
Speaking of that, what are some good low-budget chuunige? Most of the stuff in this category that I've read are Type-Moon/Nitroplus/Light, so it's generally pretty well produced. Budget is nice, but I don't need that if the writing in the fights are entertaining (e.g. the last fight in Kohaku's route in the OG Tsukihime).

>It's not because English has enough sounds to properly transliterate most of languages in the world
EOP detected.

Just because you're ignorant of the fact that other phonemes than the ones you're aware of exist doesn't mean that they don't exist at all.

Just because your mangled pronunciation of e.g. German "Bücher" or Hebrew "Chutzpa" sounds OK to you doesn't mean that it doesn't sound cringe-inducing to actual speakers of those languages.

I can't believe the art quality in the new Kuroinu gaiden pack. The old remastered game has a rare fetish,that should be more common. Dark Elf ear licking,or elf ear licking in general

And the new game has a Celestine scene with 3 events. The last one has her doggy style taking it in both holes,and the very first CG is her spreading her ass. But what really stands out are her ears. Her head is turned,and you can actually see into her ear canal,which I don't remember ever seeing before, even though Elves should have ear canals too.

>>42199972
Literally everything in this post is wrong. Fuck off EOP and stop projecting.

True, but I'm open to everything from vanilla to extreme guro, except gay men. It doesn't even have to be a nukige, but I'd prefer if there aren't any English translations. I see now that I should have specified that in the first place, but I thought it was implied. Thanks anyway >>42200126.

Currently going through mamagoto to mine sentences for anki and I was liking it a lot, but I got to the part where both Chikage and Kyouko start fighting in the supermarket to see who has gone further with the MC and Kyouko is annoying af. If it's gonna be like this the whole way through I'm not sure I wanna keep going.
Does it get better? I wouldn't mind just powering through it but since it's my first time reading an untranslated VN it still takes some time to go through it, and doing it with one I'm not enjoying doesn't seem like the best experience

Let me guess, you read something like 10 vinnies in japanese, including muramasa + all masada and you learned jap solely for chuunishit. Right? Go back to your djt and keep on sucking your own dick.

Chuuni is for escapism for retarded manchildren and losers, period. If you like Chuuni something went wrong with your development as a person. It just implies so many things at once: you're mentally weak, you're entertained by things that have no substance which means your IQ is probably low, you have no interests, etc. Not you in particular, just the kind of person who is exclusively attracted to chuunishit.

This looks good too. Thank you.

>>42201067
The art and character design is great, but the writing is just bad, even for nukige standards. I can't say if it get's better because I dropped every route I tried at some point and I'm still mad the MC refudes to bang Aki in the train.

>>42200961

>>42202860
Yes, buy it and get 2 games at once. Kuroinu kanraku mura,and Kuroinu Inyoku no daishoukan.

>>42204472
any good momcest vns to recommend?

>>42210670
Sadly not. Kyouko's route in Sweet Home ( >>42200126 ) is great, but it's "only" his step mom.

Amantes or Acta est Fabula for DI?

>>42211053
If you care about the H scenes (I'd argue many of them are surprisingly good), both. Play Acta est Fabula when you go through routes, then ctrl/skip through them after completion in Amantes to read the extra stories. Also Amantes has an additional route ending that is 100% essential. If you don't care about H, then you can get away with just Amantes.

>>42211403
so I can just play through Acta, then grab a 100 save for amantes, then read the new ending and go onto KKK?

>>42211694
I would not recommend doing that because Amantes has extra stories that unlock between the routes. Basically I would recommend: play a route in Acta, ctrl/skip through the same route in Amantes, read the unlocked side story, play another route in Acta, etc. It's autistic but kind of what you have to do.

>>42211896
how important are the extra stories?

>>42212274
extremely
