I'm gonna be in japan, are midnight sales of new releases still a thing? can I chill in a line with the boomers coming to buy a new nukige?

>>45107560
Dunno, I'm sure you can at least pick up some fliers.

>>45107560
Yeah i've done that recently.
You can get a discount with your visa too.

Does anyone know how to unlock

Maitetsu Last Run (Grand Route)
まいてつ Last Run!! グランドルート

Also does anyone know where to find all CG save for Maitetsu Last Run? As Sagaoz .net says "There is a CG/reminiscence complete function in the game, so please use that."

>>45107955
So why don't you click the unlock all button?

>>45108111
I can't find it. Am I blind? Can you circle it?

>>45108138
Menus can't be hooked, eh?

I don't have the game anymore, but it's there somewhere. I do remember using it years ago.

Outside of the new aikotoba game, i played through garudoma and there's not really a lot to talk about there, it's pretty much straight nukige you play for the sex scenes. The most noteworthy thing about this game is that it has naked tachie with pubes, which is super hot.

So who does he mean?

>>45109465
That's too scary, even for Halloween, anon.

Can you tell me if her 1st h-scene is a cum inside scene? I need to know for my self insert immersion and if I should nut on that scene or not.

why is she wearing that much clothes

>>45109821
Pretty sure that can be considered a spoiler silveriobro

>>45109866
this was obvious from the first bar scene if you ask me

And for +1, beside the garudoma fandisc, there is a 僕と先生の個人授業2

>>45110009
They announced a FD for Amanatsu as well.

Is Amakano really the best VN to learn japanese from? Any tips?

>>45110199
No, that would be Albatross.

>>45110216

>>45110199
Probably not. The h-scenes are extremely long and there's a lot of them which will probably burn you out.

Thanks for the advice, ogg-winmm fixed the looping issue.
Foobar2000 was very easy to rip the CD with. (I had been trying to use VLC like a buffoon.)
This solution does appear to break the OP movie, so it's yet another tradeoff, but you can just download it from YouTube if you care so it's still a much better solution.

>>45110256
Do they have condoms in that world or do they use the old and reliable 外出し method?

>>45110199
Just pick any slice of life eroge since they all use everyday language, whichever you pick is up to you

>>45110338
No more reliable method than just going from behind

>>45110199
The best VN to learn Japanese from is the one you want to read the most.
Learning Japanese is a long, slow, tedious process. It's well worth the effort, but you're going to have a lot of "bleugh" days where you have to push yourself to study.
If you're reading a book you're extremely interested in and feel a personal connection to, it will be much, much easier to give yourself that push on those days.

In terms of tips, I think doing something with a mix of gameplay and reading is good when you're new.
"Earning" a few minutes of gameplay after a hard hour of studying feels great and acts as a fun break.
It also can be helpful for building comprehension and grammar. The more you understand the instructions, descriptions of abilities etc., the better you do in the game. Complex games tend to have tangled grammar spaghetti sentences that will really challenge you. (I learned most of my grammar from playing Yu-Gi-Oh Tag Force.)
You also have the immediate feedback of seeing your actions play out in the game, so depending on whether everything happens as you expected it to you'll know if your comprehension was good or bad.

>>45110285
I love aya so much

>>45107437
Just finished Venus Blood Abyss. The switch to dungeon defense threw me off.
Exp gained only during battles (and passively if you built the room) was really annoying since you can't really grind if you're stuck. Well, it's hard to get stuck anyways since the dungeon will wilt down the enemies before combats.
I didn't expected eugenics to be part of the plot and gameplay. I've seen breeding farm used in doujinshi and other eroge, but having it to be an actual game mechanic was surreal.
Lucina replaced the usual blond goddess main heroine this time (her turning into a blond goddess-ish later notwithstanding) and I actually like her relationship with Quilt. I didn't really like the previous main heroines. Although I feel like the side heroines got, err sidelined a bit in exchange. Plus sub-ending wasn't as good a concept as I thought. It's not definitive enough for me.
Also I can't believe it took me this long to realize but this series is pretty anti-church.
Next game Frontier looks like the point where the series got popular? At least that's what I think considering the en translations started from there. Ah well, seems like it's back to basics at least, crushing enemies, seeing them driven before me and hearing the lamentation of their women.

>>45110655
how many venusblood have you played so far? i think i've seen 2 or 3 of your posts before

>>45110655
>Next game Frontier looks like the point where the series got popular?
Isn't HYPNO considered the big one?

Reminder that you can study Japanese for decades and still not be able to comfortably reading VNs

>>45110705
Oh. Yep those were mine. I've only played the ones released before this. The first VB, Chimera, Desire and Empire.
>>45110715
I just took a guess. This series was on my radar for a long time, but I didn't see much discussion about it, so I don't actually know what it's like.

Haven't played any VB yet but I heard Frontier is generally considered the best entry point.

Are eroge where the cast is mainly flat, still released? Since when did cowge became the norm?

>>45110234

For moege? Since forever.

Behold! The average /jp/ user.

Hypno actually was the one that made me aware of the series. It's still a long way to go, but I'm looking forwards to when I get to that game.

>>45110838
Reps are a waste of time unless you're just starting out and memorizing kanji. Japanese is purely learned by immersion and is even more intuitive than fucking English itself. Not sure why some here worship this whitoid. Must be the fuck himself shilling

How come he has so much horrendous pronunciation after studying in the uni?
I thought they were supposed to focus on output over there?
I literally never talked to anyone irl and the maximum of what i did was read stuff out loud and i still have a much better pronunciation than this

>>45111254
He runs the VN subreddit, I don't think he cares about his pronunciation

>>45111389
When the dude does reading streams and asks for donations he should at least pretend he cares a little

>>45111232
nah he's fine

>>45111254
>How come he has so much horrendous pronunciation after studying in the uni?
Rule of thumb is to never trust those who studied Japanese for their degree. 99% of them have severe Dunning Kruger and are permanent N5. Those idiots are a menace because they also obstruct people who legitimately want to learn too by spreading lies and bad habits.

>>45111461
akira can be a boy name but the spelling he used is the female spelling

>>45111472
They still are supposed to have courses where you learn pronunciation talk with others and stuff, which is pretty much the only real value it can provide

>>45111472
>never trust those who studied Japanese for their degree

that's not his academic focus at all

Is anyone here informed on which would be the best version of Mononobe on Steam for someone who wants both H content and JP text? Hikari Field's option (Happy End Deluxe) seems to be the best one in terms of content (53 CGs) but its H patch works only for Chinese text versions. There's an older version of Mononobe that has Happy End as a separate DLC but it seems to have less CGs. This is kind of confusing and googling info on this causes a lot of overlaps to the point where I'm not sure what version even has a patch, so I would appreciate any help.

>>45113237
? What you are on about, why do you need it on steam
You get the Monobeno Happy end (Deluxe Edition) on nyaa or whatever and then apply all the patches to it:
1. Web Additional H Scenes 1-10 (Digital Release)
2. -MORE SMILE- for Natsuha (DVD)
3. -MORE SMILE- for Sumi (DVD)
4. -MORE SMILE- for Alice (DVD)
Idk if patches are up anywhere since their site is ded, i can upload them if you need

>>45113237
You are a lolicon so think rationally, do you really want to support a company that betrayed their own country just to pander to americans and their own country boycotted them so hard for that they ended up dying?

>>45113237
>Mononobe
It would probably help if you knew the name of the game you're trying to play.

>>45113471
i'll pass on that
also didn't really stop other people from replying so it seems like the only one with a cognitive disability here is you

>>45113237
ものべの 全部入り is periodically on sale on both on DLsite and DMM for something like 500 yen. That's your best version if you want to buy it.

>>45113430
lolicons are powerful, also, EGS i kneel

>>45113489
I still don't get how come they sell their games for basically free
Normally something with such insane production value would cost 10k minimum

>>45113538
If I understand it correctly eroge makers get majority of their profit from preorders. Everything after that is basically competition with second-hand shops and piracy. It seems gaining some money from dl version in that context with cheap sales is not such a bad proposition.

>>45113588
Piracy is the last thing jap companies have to worry about
Henpri still costs 10k even a year after release

>>45113489
>>45113394
Thank you for the answers anons

>>45113588
Isn't piracy difficult to do for people living in Japan? Most people who pirate this type of shit are who those living in third world countries which is more or less an insignificant number.

>>45113647
Just look at geoip flags of peers in your torrent client when you download eroge. There are plenty Japanese flags. It's usually even overwhelming majority on new releases.
It might be a bit more risky, especially when compared to rather cheap prices of second-hand shops but it's not like it's hard or non-existent.

>>45113647
Everytime i torrent new shit from exhentai i look at the ip flags and half of those are japanese flags

Dunno, didn't scadi said subahibi sold like shit at first, then it picked up, and was doing good for a few years after?

>>45113743
Djs from exhentai is one thing, games or soft is another story
They are so paranoid from their illiteracy that they refuse to even use any non-official patches

>>45113765
If so, that's an outlier. Sales definitely don't work like that in general.

>>45113647
the wider anime industry tends to release some random report every few years on how much damage piracy is doing to them, even domestically, if I remember correctly

Why are so many JOP trans nowadays?

>>45113647
>Isn't piracy difficult to do for people living in Japan?

yes, which is why all the best jp stuff is on private trackers

>>45113895
overexposure to reading socks and reading buttplugs causes SAN damage

>>45113895
You need to be a bit crazy autist to learn Japanese to decent level. That kind of autism is correlated with transsexuality too.

>>45113939
Or maybe it's more appropriate to say that it's correlated with sexual deviancy in general. Some are trans, some are lolicons, others are gay, etc.

>>45113939
It wasn't always like this though. With the new generation of JOPs it seems like half of them are trans

>>45113895
Isn't that amerimutt only? I don't have any tranny jp friends.

>>45113969
bless you anon

>>45113976
Bro... the word JOP excludes natives

>>45113974
I very much doubt that half of them are trans. There a lot of people who are less prominent to advertise their real life personality or sexuality online. Those who are trans are just very vocal about it and that inflates their numbers.

>>45113895
Nothing wrong with being trans

>>45114000
And to be honest I understand why they need to be vocal. Transsexuality is very costly thing in various ways, mentally, physiologically, financially, socially, etc. People need to constantly demonstrate and emphasize it for self-confirmation or it will be very hard to bear.

>>45113998
Yes I know. Both of my JOP friends (natives and non natives) no one is tranny.

I always wondered what it was like to be a VA for one of those characters that rarely ever talks and mostly has lines like pic related. Do you just autistically mumble some words and grunting noises during the entire recording session?

>>45113895
Is this a Discord thing? I personally don't know any JOPs because 4chan is literally my only means of communication with you guys.

Well, back to a more important topic, she's really cute eh

who could it be

>>45114106
My wife

this sure was a scene

>>45114103
That sprite looks like it's from koikatsu for some reason

>>45114139
I really like her personality and when I noticed she was using あたし was peak comedy, it completely broke my previous image of her

>>45114228
I wish koikatsu looked like that.

>>45107437
Completed Kodachi's, Kanasuke's, Ureshino's and half of Sakuraba's routes in 大図書館の羊飼い and I think I'm done. The group shenanigans in the common route are fun, and the mystery is compelling enough. Kanasuke's chemistry with the MC is so good that her route is now probably my favorite in terms of moege romances. If anyone has any recommendations for similar scenarios, I'd love to hear them. I dropped Sakuraba's midway through because it felt very standard: heroine has problem, gets sad, MC does all the emotional support and pep talks her out of it.
True route starts out well, everything involving the 羊飼い was really interesting and thought-provoking, but ultimately they're not fleshed out as much as I was hoping for. I like how the conflict of ideologies in the election arc is a representation of Kodachi's struggle with what it means to be a 羊飼い, but the preparation of the events drags on a bit too long, and the gag harem love war felt forced and out of character most of the time. The ending was expected given that it's a light-hearted story, it's not bad or disappointing by any means, but it left me itching for a nakige/bittersweet route where the MC chooses to become a 羊飼い, but that would have required them to be more developed.
Also, the writer clearly has an 男の娘 fetish, it's kinda silly how much influence the MC's cross-dressing has on the plot.

What the fuck was her problem?

>>45114379
I'll have two of those, thanks

Senri route has some of the best Kanasuke scenes, if you wanted more of her. FD is also pretty good for the Kana afterstory and common route side story.

>>45111212
Both my first and last names are nouns, so in the rare cases where a VN or RPG require a specifically Japanese name to be input I use the Japanese equivalent words.

Thanks for the heads up. Too bad there's nothing I want to download at the moment.

>>45114774
erogen't: dear world the one and clear rain

>>45114803
They dont have doujin games like Clear Rain. You need to buy the 70k copy from Surugaya.

>>45114809
I know, there is literally nothing there that interests me

>>45114819
Check if they have the HaruKuru and NatsuYuru extra adventure games and hook us up.

We talked about them few threads ago.

>>45114834
They only have the Harukuru extra game that I already mentioned at the time.

>>45114839
Damn, I thought AB was a bigger deal.

I actually had an account back in like, hell, 2013 or something. But I let it lapse out, cause its annoying to deal with autistic login requirements and shit.

>>45114851
There's a lot of old shit, yeah, but almost all of it is kuso. An acquaintance also lost his account due to inactivity

>>45114851
In terms of VNs I think 99% of what's on AB is or has been at some time publicly available. The only advantage is that there's a few guys running seedboxes that just download the entire site, so you never run into dead downloads like on nyaa or DDL sites.

>>45114863
He can just go on IRC and ask to get the account re-enabled.

>>45114896
not him but I actually did that twice before and it got locked because inactivity each time kek

>>45114881

Less about that and more not getting their hands dirty with Chang code.

I'm still waiting for the Extravaganza anon

Well?

>>45116094
Yes, the brutal way in which they killed any citizen who looked at them the wrong way was indeed very cool.

>>45116307
When I started reading Miburo, I was really, really worried they'd tone down the shinsengumi girls now that they're heroines and not antagonists, and I'm really impressed that they didn't.
They do give them lots of cute moments and quirky comedy bits, but also lean hard into the fact that Hijirin is an absolutely ruthless killer who has done some unambiguously evil shit, and she gets some great character moments and development surrounding it.

>>45116304
Was she the most popular girl?

>>45116343
Evil girls are cute.

>>45116348
Yeah, she won the poll

>>45116304
>>45116348
>>45116368
It's the obvious result, she's not advertised as the main girl but her route is clearly where the focus went, it's miles better than the others and I'm pretty sure it's way longer too.
Looking at the results she scored as many results as #2 and #3 combined, which is impressive but expected.
>Urumi at bottom
Good, maybe this will finally teach the Marmalade writer who has the brain rot that makes him think awful sex friend route drama is acceptable realize he's killing great heroines with awful routes.

>>45116368
Three of them are Urumi Numazu.

>>45116390
>>Urumi at bottom
Aw fuck, I meant Kirara, the wrong name threw me off, how embarrassing.

>>45116413
Yeah, lol, I was reading the kanji and thinking how the fuck is that supposed to be Urumi Numazu?

>>45116390
>Good, maybe this will finally teach the Marmalade writer who has the brain rot that makes him think awful sex friend route drama is acceptable realize he's killing great heroines with awful routes.
Sex friends get placed last all the time and yet they still keep making them.
I think the writer just has some sort of fetish for it at this point.

>>45116431
That has to be it, right? Every single one of their games that I've played has the one designated sex friend and she always has the worst route.

>>45116307
You saying this ironically because that is the unfiltered definition of based?

>>45116364
What about morally ambiguous girls?

>>45116563
Also cute, especially when leaning evil.

>>45116343
Honestly, I think Inre has done a pretty good job trying to show all sides of the story, although I can't deny that I would have loved to see scenes that depict in a little more detail the darker side of the Chusingura girls as well.
For example, maybe a scene where Suguha finds Kazuemon testing her new sword on a freshly dug-up rotting corpse would have been great. But now that I think about it, that might be a bit too extreme for this game kek

>>45116511
Yeah, at the end of the day they were just making their job a little more interesting for themselves. Plus they're cute, so it's literally impossible to hate them.

I for one prefer Lawful Good retards.

>>45116511
I mean, for all they're mostly portrayed as a lovable gang of honorable samurai in most modern Japanese media the Shinsengumi were essentially a paramilitary police death squad who killed anyone even tangentially suspected of disloyalty, and both Chusingura and Miburo actually lean into that fairly heavily.
>>45116624
After reading Miburo, my suspicion is the author thinks the shinsengumi were cool and sympathizes with them, but politically agrees with Sakamoto Ryoma / Katsura Kogoro. Every time Ryoma shows up, she destroys the shinsengumi with facts and logic, mostly by explaining that guns and warships will always beat swords (although the author absolutely despises the new Meiji government and there's multiple diatribes about how the 廃仏毀釈 and consequent destruction of temples destroyed irreplaceable pieces of Japanese history and culture).
You can kind of see why the author likes both the ako roushi and shinsengumi, and they're paralleled quite a bit in BnK - they're both samurai clinging to a historical hardcore form of bushido that arguably never even really existed and was only ever a fantasy.

>>45113765
Yeah. Funny thing is, the sales were so shit he even thought in selling keromakura to visual arts at the time. The first chapter really was a powerful filter.

Are the two prologue chapters in Oretsuba Prelude 100% exactly the same as in the main game? No minor differences, no new CGs, anything?

>>45116745
Some VAs were changed, but as far as I remember the rest is the same.

>>45116745
>>45116784
I think there were some minor changes to the text and cgs. Like Hayato's monologue has a few lines missing and the background cg color is a bit different. It's mostly the same though.

>>45116680
So this is equivalent to an author having a Knights Templar fetish, but at the same time aligning to Luther's Reformation shakeup huh?

>>45114297
I'd say you should actualy finish Tamamo's route.
It's the best character route in the game after kana's, from a writing perspective at least it's actually competently done. And I read them all, mind you, Shiraishi's is super bland and Senri's is a mess where Kana outshines her super hard and ironically gets the best confession scene in the whole game.
But i agree that Kanasuke is basically a really high bar for moege romance because her and MC have extremely good chemistry.

>>45117272
Senri-chan is a very cute koakuma-kei cutie, 8/10 easily.

But Kanasuke is 500/10.

Are there eroge in which each route is consistently the same quality, bad or good?

>>45117404
I liked every route in Hatsuyuki sakura on the same level, idk how objective it is though

>>45117404
muramasa?

>>45117626
Ichijou and Kanae routes clearly have a big gap in quality

>>45117404
Signal Heart is the only VN I consider to have consistently great routes. While it's not my favorite VN, I consider it to be the blueprint all other VNs should follow.

Does anyone have the Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 version of GUN-KATANA? I can't find it anywhere and the older version has issues with crashing on 10.

>>45117817
only 2007ve on ab so your best bet is vm

How good is the leyline trilogy?

>>45117817
have you tried installing 2.10 patch?

>>45118352
No, I only read from other posts that it crashes often. But I will download it and try it myself.

>>45110315
Pass on the knowledge next time someone has the same problem.
Also, what about >>45103838 ?
That's as simple as dropping files into the game's folder, no need to rip the music even (although you have to keep the CD mounted while playing).

Fucking awful

>>45118690
What route is this on?

>>45118636
You can use inmm.dll like that too, btw.

>>45118919
How do I do that without patching the game?
There's a lot of unnecessary hassle involved and patching the game can trigger the DRM, if it has any.

>>45119390
Patching the game is trivial.

Well it's not Hasshaku, but it's still pretty good, at least the mc is cool.

>>45119567

This week on 16Bit Sensation.

>>45117404
In a good way: Tsukihime (but I guess I'm in the minority here)
In a bad way: Sorechiru

>>45122435
Oh my god I recognize those games. I am going to pick up this anime right now!
Holy shit, I clapped. I clapped when they showed Doukyuusei.

Speaking about it, should i go into sengoku rance blindly without a guide?
I played all the previous ones with guide because the gameplay sucked ass, but people claim sengoku to have like the best gameplay ever made. Should i go with collecting all the scenes and endings and shit mentality or can i just play it whatever i want?

>>45120235
We really need some big loli release. Nothing big has come out in years.

>>45122521
Wait until you see the staff credits.

>>45122543

Can't wait for the Hasshaku cameo.

>>45122698
It doesn't seem to be that big.

>>45122870
It looks grotesquely big for how tiny the girl is.

>>45122521
I don't recognize the right one.

>>45123056
The girl is 10-11 years old so it seems that should be normal size ratio.

>>45122426
Hayato's chapter mogs the rest of the game

>>45123058
It's supposed to be the first eroge ever I think.

currently reading saya's route in little busters and good lord the replay portion almost made me break my monitor

>>45124071
For some reason, I got super autistic during that route and got super good at the gun minigame.

>>45122698
Perfect cock size. You're just small lol

Why the hell ero scenes in Aikotoba SSS have third-person narrative?

>>45124454
Writer self inserting

>>45124454
Post a reference...

>>45120235
wish you fuckers wouldn't link to your secret nearly extinct animal site

>>45124524
https://files.catbox.moe/2gxtee.jpg

It completely ruined immersion for me. I guess I'll have to get back to it in a couple of days.

>>45124596
without spoiling can you tell me if her first virgin h-scene is a cum inside one?

>>45124596
I don't see what's wrong with this, if anything it makes it more unique.

>>45124669
This is her first scene and I've put it on hold due to third-person narration even before anything was put in.
I can't help you unfortunately in this case.

>>45124596
This is fine. The point is to emphasize the incest hence 兄 not 俺

>>45124596
Are all these games like this? looks cool

>>45124693
It's NBR...

>>45124705
Okay what the fuck

>>45124583
You are aware all the CGs you find in hitomi comes from exhentai right?

>>45124693
That's not the only instance. I haven't played it for long but everything was narrated as 兄 or 虎鉄 instead of 俺 before the start of the scene.
It's not fine. At least for me it didn't feel fine at all.

>>45124596
Literally NTR

>>45124780
Picked up

>>45124780
There were signs.

I can understand dropping something over third person narration. It makes it feel a lot more dry and distant. It's the only reason why I dropped dead end aegis.

>>45124806
That was third person from the beginning

>>45124806
I could understand it if all narration was written like that. I have issues comprehending why it suddenly switched to third person narration right when the ero scene started.

Anyone else get weirdly uncomfortable listening to sample voices on character pages?

>>45124848
Unless you're playing the H samples in front of other people, I'm not sure why you would be uncomfortable.

>>45124703
The amakano uses the point of view of the heroine during h-scenes

>>45124884
Love those

>>45124884
wait, really? oh well, guess I'll have to read them when I have time

>>45124596
>>45124804
Bro they literally have ""fake"" NTR scenes near the end and there is even a choice whether you want to see it or not..

>>45124920
No, NO, NO. I wanted to like this VN! I wanted to love this character!! FUCKING HELL. The ONE FUCKING WHITE EYELASHED BEAUTY in VNs and SHE'S A FUCKING NTR SLUT!

>>45124920
I'll have to see how badly I'll get offended by that.

>>45124920
Uhhh Azarashibros? Moebros? NBRbros? Care to explain this?

>>45124920
視聴する and share the backlog for a laugh

>>45124929
Are there no other VNs with white eyelashed heroines?

>>45124920
I thought this was a moege what the fuck

>>45124953
>>45124961
It's fine bros they are just faking!!

>first asapro gave their side heroines boyfriends
>now azarashisoft is giving their main heroine optional NTR scenes
The future of moege is grim

>>45124920
plotbros... we won

>>45124977
Want to know what the death of VNs looks like? It's not normie intrusion. It's reality intrusion, when all aspects of reality, the ugly aspects, are forced into a medium that was supposed to reflect a more idealized world, idealized romance and friendships. Soon we will have adultery as a social norm among VN characters, non-virgins as a norm, truly one-sided loves as a norm, break up ends as a norm, unromantic flings as a norm. NTR as the norm in all VNs.

>>45124996
It's been like this for plotcucks since the 90s

>>45124996
So basically just returning to the origins as all things should be

Better, just mc faping on his ntr fantasies

Yuzusoft hasn't betrayed us yet

>>45125066
It's fine they even made a choice for you what can go wrong..

>>45125070
What is the actual point of including a scene like this in such a game? It would only be completely polarizing and turn people off.

>>45125074
>yet
We live in a world where certainties no longer exist, sad

>>45124977
Asapro did that to shill their fandisc

elf were too far ahead of their time with kakyuusei 2

>>45125124
more like behind the times, the most insulting thing about kakyuusei 2 is that it used the same exact system as kakyuusei with zero improvements to it and it came out in fucking 2004.

>>45124977
glad they are literally killing the 雄豚 once again. now only if gacha fucks off completely (never)

>>45125092
Well given they even made a separate ending with the "simulation" scene too they clearly knew their target auditory if it managed to get 76 on egs.. https://exhentai.org/s/4be5f782c4/2718658-463

i like the protagonist in the new aikotoba, he isn't afraid to banter. i appreciate it when they have at least some backbone around girls

>>45125139
The formula was already almost perfect, and in k2 they perfected it. I wish today an eroge with as much replayability and shit to do as k2. Visiting their homes, calling them on the phone, arranging appointment dates, paying attention to conversations to determine the ideal date, the tension that other girls might catch you cheating on them... fucking kamige

>>45124946
No one can.

>>45125227
>the tension that other girls might catch you cheating on them
Judging by all the interviews on youtube this seems to be japs' 醍醐味 of relationships, weird that they stopped making more of it these days

>>45125194
His backbone is there only around Shirone and even that is occasional.

>>45125227
playthroughs are just way too long my man, i get burnt out by only one playthrough of kakyuusei, it's also way too restrictive in how it punishes you if you try to pursue multiple girls...doukyuusei had the right idea

Speaking of elf, does anyone have the full video of https://litter.catbox.moe/xoob6o.mp4

>>45125267
Yeah, he does break down sometimes. I dunno, there's just so many spineless wimp protagonists that even occasional banter is like a breath of fresh air for me.

>>45125227
Sounds like too much micromanaging and stress to just fuck some 2D girls

>>45125267
Advertisement for a mental clinic seems quite appropriate here.

>>45125292
Yeah, that's why in doukyuusei remake they implemented an easy mode for the most pussys "erogamers"

>>45125378
soul

>>45118636
I tried >>45103838 first and it did not work.
It might work for other games, or maybe I did something wrong, but the other solutions in the previous thread worked much better for me.

Are any of the PS2/PSP anime VNs any good?

>>45125412
what game did it not work with?

>>45125432
Oreimo

>>45125445
I should have made a disclaimer I've already played the oreimo and toradora ones.

>>45125453
I heard this is kamige https://vndb.org/v4696

>>45122541
You don't need a guide for your first playthrough.
The first playthrough is rigged extremely heavily in your favor. You can make the worst possible decision at every choice, fail to recruit all of the strongest characters in the game, and get half of your units killed, and the worst thing that will happen to you is having to go back like two turns.
Essentially your entire first playthrough is a tutorial for the real game, which are the higher difficulties that get unlocked after.
After you finish your first run, you should look up a guide because there are some important mechanics that aren't explained anywhere. (How enemy troop size is determined, how enemy turns are simulated, how to control when the first part of the game ends and the second part starts, etc.) Knowing about this stuff is essential on higher difficulty levels. Try to avoid spoilers for the routes though, they're a ton of fun.
Also, make sure you're playing on the latest patch because it adds like an extra five hundred hours of content (no exaggeration). If your version number says 1.04, you're good.

>>45125475
Is it even worth going for 100% or should you just get some main endings and call it a day?

>>45125442
Same game, Daiakuji.

>>45125318
I don't want to be a gamer

>>45125498
I haven't 100%ed it myself but I would say it's excessive. There's an absurd amount of postgame content and I don't think anyone at Alice Soft ever expected you to play all of it.
If you're playing through the series in order I would play through the four major routes (True route and the three heroine routes) and beat the secret boss (Orochi) before moving on to Rance Quest. The "canon" events of Sengoku as viewed by the rest of the series are essentially a greatest hits of cool stuff from those four routes and that boss fight in particular.
If you like, you can go back and do the minor routes and go CG hunting later.
I would try to pick up the majority of the character clears on your way. Sengoku Rance character clears are generally easy to do and the stories are really good. Some of them are fairly plot important.

>Credit roll can't be skipped
>It pauses when the window is inactive
...

>eroge has a "skip to next choice button"
>it doesn't stop at unread text
>it advances you all the way through the heroine's route to the first H-scene's 中 or 外 choice

>>45125574
>if you just close the game it doesn't count as cleared and extra is not opened

>>45125585
I literally have never used that button once in my life, whenever i accidentally clicked it it ended with disaster

>>45125574
Can you not just sit still for a few minutes and reminisce on the game?

>>45120235
Cute butts.

>>45123056
Yes, the size difference is very erotic.

>>45125667
Why they never make scenes like this in eroge and instead it's always the same ctrl c ctrl v h scenes

>>45125693
I've seen threeway kiss in eroge before.

>>45125585
I'm not sure what the standard for this button is since I'm too afraid to use this, but I would expect it to skip unread text the majority of the time.

>>45125739
In most titles it stops at unread text. In semiramis, however, it barreled all the way through a heroine's route. Conversely, in the new cube title, it's disabled at the last choice of the common route. Maybe you and >>45125599 are right about this...

>>45125574
Turn up the volume and go to make yourself something to eat while you listen to the song in the background

>>45125574
>Try to speehack the application
>It crashes

Imouto san?

/a/ sends its regards with the new meido.

>>45125043
Not really. All of the tonework's games are pure love romance. They did add two non-virgin adult side heroines in the last game, but even then it was still a fairly straightforward romance with them.

>>45125285
Just play ones without eyes. They tend to be dicks.

>>45127256
Are you the same guy who was ranting about this years ago?
>>45127275
It's not even drama, it's the exact opposite. It's an excuse for why MC can have a step-sister but there's no drama involved whatsoever. It's probably the safest way they could think of to include a step-sibling without killing off a parent (and thereby creating drama).

Looking for https://vndb.org/v1884
ANGEL・CORE

>>45127290
>Nazi chuuni
I miss this and I hate the internet outragers for killing this trend.

One thing I've noticed about Miburo that I think is interesting is that the game essentially outlines a reading order for the routes via footnote order (note footnotes 31-36 are the Hijikata normal route, even if they're labelled as a continuation of the common route, presumably because they wanted to save Hijikata-face thumbnails for the true route).
I mention that as a prelude because I actually think the route order they suggest is not a good order to read the game for spoiler reasons. Or maybe I'm reading into the footnote order too much and it's not actually meant to be reading order?

>>45127290
It's on Anime-Sharing

>>45127303
Wasn't nazi chuuni only ever a fashion style? I don't think anyone was ever actually really interested in nazi-ism as a belief system.
Masada just liked Hugo Boss suits and then everyone imitated him.

>>45127313
Nazis are the best bad guys. They have the best costumes, the moustached lord is the most famous figure of the 20th century and everything surrounding nazism is full of mysticism (with the experiments and all that shit) so you can add science fiction, esotericism, etc. to their backgrounds and it wouldn't be out of place at all

>>45127313
I wasn't even referring about National socialism or Jew killing, but rather their aesthetics. But as soon as the 2010's crept up, the SJW's caught wind of this and pressured Japan among other things like public loli and junior idols to "tone it down" (CENSOR). You can discount my arguments as schizo thoughts, but you can't deny that this was first in line for otaku media dilution.

>>45127362
But...the silverio games came out in the late 2010s and half their cast wears clear nazi-inspired uniforms? (Well, probably LDO inspired uniforms, admittedly). They're just black military suits, are the armbands that important?
I dunno man, I just don't think americans complaining on twitter has that big an effect on eroge. Japanese people complaining on twitter sure, but not americans.

>>45127275
Excluding hatsukoi and tsukikana, drama in toneworks games are usually about problems in the heroine's career or aspiration that never threatening said heroine's relationship with the main character. The divorcee mother is not a drama because 1. mom is not a heroine, and 2.that fact is dropped early in the common route. It's still disgusting because this is a fucking wish fulfillment romance game, divorce is a serious thing that harms the children and this scene throws the fact that marriage isn't a sacred bond that must be kept intact. What prevents MC from divorcing the heroine that he choose if he's already have such a fucked up idea about marriage from his parents? At least in Mizuha's route, it indirectly shows how the divorce fucked up MC's psyche and how he has obsession to be a good boy in the early routes.
>>45127286
Death is more preferable than divorce in romance VN such as this. Also Yuzuki's dad died in an accident before her mother marry MC's father so that excuse doesn't make sense.

>>45127373
Japan started "cleaning" up prior to the Olympics. Do the math.

>>45127377
oh wow you are the same guy, you're repeating your same rants almost word for word from like what, five years ago? six?
good on you, buddy. I respect keeping the passion.

>>45116390
Only cucks let their GF dresses like this.

>>45127421
Need to get something off your chest from a bad day, buddy?

>>45127377
I have not read it, but looking at your other comment, it is somewhat disappointing that this dilemma is treated in this way. There is a clear relativization and romanticization there. Relativization of the impact a divorce can have on a child's psyche because you are destroying a nuclear family, and romanticization of evading responsibilities in pursuit of your dreams. Kinda can understand that in the case of women there is a recurring problem today in which many times they have to choose between their professional life and their family life. Many cannot fulfill their professional dreams because they are in the middle of a family project, and are forced to postpone them until the child in question has reached maturity, but I don't know, it feels very strange that they talk so lightly about it simply because everything "turned out well" in the end.
Do the other games also introduce conflicts like this or are they lighter?

>>45125521
Guy who originally asked about that game here, did _inmm.dll not work for you? Had no trouble with it on win 10.

>>45125521
>>45127442
By had no trouble I mean, it's working fine, with looping BGM, intro OP, and no disc insertion dialogue.

>>45127425
Am I wrong?

>>45127468
Incels often are.

>>45127472
Sounds like muslim apologist, if anything

>>45127476
It is SEA hours after all.

>>45127436
Hatsukoi has chock-full of relationship drama. Tsukikana's drama intensity depends on the route itself, the hag side routes have lighter drama while Touka and Uguisu has life or death drama. Dunno about Rein or Seira.

>>45127490
God, I despise retarded SEAniggers.

>>45127496
Rein's is
>you know the whole drama and extremely hard choices from uguisu's route?
>well, they don't matter and are WRONG to think about
>isn't she cute being reasonably less mature than in the other routes you meet her?
and so she was the most popular character.

>complains when they're not mature.
>complains when they're too mature.
You really don't know what you want for your characters, just like real women.

>>45127520
>meet future version of girl
>she's mature and competent, acts her age
>meet future version of girl after you romance her

I blame the different writers here, and obviously it worked, but it was jarring as fuck.

I don't know about you guys, but she is one of my favorite characters

>>45127490
>>45127502
obsessed.

>>45127506
The amount of shilling from ToneWorks for her character is bullshit even though Touka is supposed to be the main heroine. I really wanted to start her route because I see preggo sex on her fandisc, but I can't bring myself to read her route no matter what, I'm tired of gaijin sluts in my VNs.

>>45127569
me too, i want to take turns with her licking the lollipop

>>45127570
Not as much as your impotence over skimpy clothes, Mohammad.

>>45127576
She was written by the popular writer from the other two games, so she got the most shilling.

>>45127576
I've been telling myself that I'll read rikka's route at some point... it's been 7 years

>>45127490
More like ALT hours

>>45127588
I think it's more to the director just have gaijin girl fetish because Bethly also gets shilled more than other heroines in Ginharu.

>>45127279
Thank you so much anon

>>45127737
I feel bad for Bethly because when she's meant to be speaking in other language she's fine but otherwise it's like talking to a retard.
