>>46976986
>learning japanese to get a better experience
You JOPs think you're reading in real Japanese, but you're not. It's all tainted. The VNs you think you're reading in unadulterated Nihongo were translated! Yes, translated from Japanese into English and then back into Japanese! The language is no longer pure! The subtle meanings have been lost! What you're reading is a crude, kludged-together mockery of the language of the land of the rising sun, and because all you know is that crude mockery you are blind to the cruel joke played on you! You can' read visual novels in true, native Japanese unless you buy physical copies of the discs in Japan, and you have to carefully watch them the whole way from the store to your house because at any time, someone might take the discs and swap them, replace them with impure, corrupted, translated-and-retranslated discs, and unless you were born and raised in Japan and spoke Japanese your entire life you would never know it had even happened!

>>46976993
How do you know?

>>46977045
are you retarded? i have nothing against upscale, my only problem is that upscale being lossy like AI shit, i don't give a fuck about monitors, this is a very good upscale with the official art.

>>46977068
So upscale AI is only good when it's the official artist who pressed the button on waifu2x?

>>46977076
Are any of the releases this month any good? Only one that catches my eye is Sky Chord or whatever it's called.

>>46977075
Waifu2x doesn't do this sir.
Also, if it was Waifu2x, it would look like dogshit plastic.

Took a lossless screenshot upscaled at 1440p and scaled it down to 720, then took one at native 720. Side by side, they look exactly the same.

>>46977092
You lost the soul.

Upscaling algorithms existed before computers were even a thing. It's nothing special. All games upscale somehow assuming they aren't literally locked to only one window size. As for "AI upscaling", all that means is that the parameters were obtained from a model that trained on data. Some work well and others are dogshit like in the OP screenshot. I don't care too muich about what you personally use, but I would highly suggest you avoid the meme/smear filter variety of scalers that sharpen everything at the cost of nuking details so I don't have to see garbage screenshots in this thread.

>>46977092
Took a lossless sentence MTLed through deepL and MTLed it back to Japanese, then took one at native N1. Side by side, they look exactly the same.

>native n1

AI vns blogpost when? we already support MTL and upscale here

>>46977092
I don't think anyone's going to argue that anything meaningful is lost in this example you found. Personally I would never use AI upscaling for obvious reasons, but if you feel the need to justify yourself to people in here I recommend just being yourself and not worrying about it

>>46977122
I was actually curious for myself at how well AI upscaling works. Thanks for the advice though.

>>46977092
>9-nine 1080P support
now do that with a VN that only supports 720P and you can't change the resolution in the configs

>>46977130
The all-ages version supports 1080p. I'm playing the 18+ version, which only has 720p.

>>46977117
Soon bro, soon. Nvidia made a new card recently. Models are gonna get soo good. Indistinguishable from a real nip writing a VN.

R07 should write moege

That anon in the last thread that couldn't understand that satire about the Ganges river really disillusioned me. Thinking learning Japanese will help anything is just an illusion, if you are smart you will understand what is being conveyed in mtl and if you're dumb, well all the language learning in the world can't help you, you'll think an author is unironic and dead serious when they praise that a river is being filled with industrial waste lmao

Learning Japanese isn't the filter to high quality discussion you think it is after all

>>46977202
Do people actually learn Japanese cause they think it filters brainlets out of nicher discussion circles on 4chan? I come here incidentally as someone who learned japanese anyway because people post cool stuff I might never have heard of otherwise, and my reason for learning Japanese is to get the true experience not to mingle with 'the elite' on 4chan.

>>46977319
You sound pretty elitist yourself bro.

>>46977319
>get the true experience
But you don't get it, that's the point. The anon who made no effort and MTLed is understanding it just as well as you. So there is no point in learning when you can enjoy the content in an easier way.

>>46977347
How? Because I treat 4chan as entertainment rather than trying to be one of the cool kids on team JOP or something?
>>46977353
Physically impossible to have this opinion if you know japanese. Most lines will lose nuance and character when translated, even if only the tiniest amount, even if intent and meaning are conveyed really well. Its definitely an enthusiast thing but also essential to the 'true experience' of any work if you care for that

people who mtl will never experience what the word ずぼずぼ does to my dick

>>46977319
I learned Japanese because there were no VN translations back in the day.

>>46977384
>How? Because I treat 4chan as entertainment rather than trying to be one of the cool kids on team JOP or something?
Because you're constantly trying to one-up random people, even if you have to be dishonest with yourself.

Finally finished up all the routes in Braban. I've never read any other Yuzu game before unless you count Shouyon, so I can't really compare. Anyways not too much to say other than it's a pretty decent moege. Some of the drama I thought was a bit stupid but it only lasts like a couple of days, so it's not a huge deal. MC is not really much of a hetare aside from Tae's route. Actually he's reasonably competent as a 部長 all things considered. My main complaint is that I wish they did more with the music premise. There was a lot of repeated conversational topics (food, 眠い, etc.) which could have easily been substituted with something more musical instead. It wasn't like the writers were totally clueless on the topic. They did correctly note at one point that playing high notes on trumpet (or any brass instrument) is not about blowing harder for example. I guess this is the wrong genre to make this wish, but I kind of wish there was more drama with MC's dad like in Owarinaki. Jun sort of seems to have a slight complex about his dad being a well-known composer, but they don't really do anything with it other than make him hesitant on deciding what piece to play. The routes could have benefited from some more variation as well. The main background events are pretty much the same but just MC goes off and does X with whatever girl. Yuki's had the most unique points about it given that she's 部長 of the rival team. Also, I wish they tried harder to make the final performance more noteworthy. At least a CG at that part was certainly warranted. That felt lazy.

Also, Yuki is the best girl and easily the best route. She's so sweet.

>>46977403
Not at all, I'm pretty sure most people in this thread are like me and into Japanese for the same reasons, that anons post is the first I've seen it suggested that one might learn Japanese just to gain access to higher levels of VN discussion rather than for the media itself

>>46977433
Well, as you can see in the reply he gave you, he's just sperging out at anyone who thinks MTL is different from real Japanese. Could also be bait. It's best to ignore him.

Important
>>46977203

>>46977482
It really isn't. How can you be so elitist to really think you're better than the developers who made MTL tools and the tons of real Japanese it was trained on?

>>46977433
I didn't really mean learning Japanese, I meant knowing Japanese. Which people itt actually do very much so believe that discussion of stuff with others who know Japanese is an inherently higher level of discussion and shuns/fears people who don't know Japanese invading the threads when, the distinction between production of high and low quality understanding of text and thus discussion isn't a knowledge of Japanese, it's having a brain.

>>46977426

>>46977601

>Do you plan to read any other old yuzusoft games?

>>46977631
>Yeah that's been on my backlog for a long time as well as OVERDRIVE in general.
Cool. It was fun to read your posts as you obviously have knowledge on that subject and it's something you are passionate about
>so also yes
Nice

Okay, how the fuck is magpie and MTL the same thing?

>>46977652
Thanks man. I'm a big music guy as well. Getting more music-related games under my belt is part of the goal this year.

>>46977426
I adore Yuzu games and they are the masters of having really interesting premises/setups and not exploring them nearly as far as they could. Often a heroine's route, good as it may be, feels incidental to the cool setup the game has going on. I think part of the popularity spike from Sanoba to Senren Banka, Riddle Joker, and Cafe Stella could be in part due to how almost every route focuses in on part of the fantasy of their settings. They also get massively better at 伏線回収 later on, setting stuff up in the very beginning of the common route to pay off in different ways in the various heroine routes. Earlier the routes feel more independent of each other. In the end it's moege and I just love yuzu's particular flavor of moe but yeah

>>46977495
>this triggers the JOP

>>46977426
Man, I'd completely forgotten about Tae's route. That drama was so dumb, made me regret saving her for last.

>>46977698
Nah, thanks to you, brother
I greatly appreciate blogposters because they always help me decide on whether to read something or not
Sometimes they make me read things I would never have considered otherwise

>>46977744
That was pretty bad. Even despite MC conveniently having amnesia about his childhood events, it still felt like things would have worked fine if Tae just did a standard 告白. It very much felt like drama that had no reason to happen.

>>46977714
I'm not a fan of their humor style of making fun of the MC all the time, it made me drop Cafe Stella. At least they toned it down a little in Reboot.

>>46977833
That's fair, Cafe Stella goes further than any of the others in making fun of the MC by far. I do feel like he kind of deserves it, one in the Natsume route where he gets it for being whiny, one in the Mei route where gets it just for being creepy which is core to the MC/Mei dynamic of him being a pervert and her being creeped out but secretly she likes it. He's practically a different character in that route with how audacious he is

>Episodes: 3 > 4 > 2 > 1
Heroines
>Tatsuya >Meryl > Hina > Rin > Kotoko
I enjoyed the series overall quite a bit, it's definitely in my top 3 franchises where MC is a down-on-his-luck-loser who invents a super drug and gets involved in the criminal underground trying to monetize it and gradually grows to becoming a worse and worse person as he realizes the only way to escape is through the top.

I liked episode 4 quite a bit, but my big problem with it is that it was fairly predictable - you could guess pretty much exactly how it was going to end from the in medias res Rin scene at the start (that scene probably shouldn't have been there). The Tatsuya betrayal fake-out was obvious, and at no point did I think Luca was actually gonna shoot Ikki. That's the reason I liked episode 3 so much more than 4, with episode 3 I was on the edge of my seat going holy fuck no way this can't be happening I can't believe they're actually doing it and with episode 4 they pulled their punches to give a happy ending. I was actually getting worried they'd reveal Hina was alive the whole time and totally fine and also faked her death, thank god they didn't do that. I did like the twist of Luca just being genuinely helpful and on their side the whole time despite how suspicious she was and it would've all worked out if they just trusted her It's a perfectly fine ending, but it could've been better.

I've been going back and forth on whether or not being episodic helped. I think it definitely helped for my engagement and enjoyment, and it'll probably come off quite a bit worse if you read it all at once instead of sequentially. At the very least I'm glad VNs like this exist that are doing something really radically different than pretty much everything else on the market (I mean, they're imitating prestige TV, but that IS relatively new ground for VNs)

I logged off the internet to avoid spoilers since release but I'm guessing there's been a lot of shitposting about the reveal that Rin's gay and the Brad almost rape scene CG being posted out of context and I look forward to seeing it.

Also no Luca h-scene, kusoge, she couldn't have raped Ikki even once while testing Rave on him? C'mon. Actually going for a bro ending with Tatsuya brings it back up to kamige though.

>>46978401
This is canon

>>46978463
What is the score?

>>46978463
>but I'm guessing there's been a lot of shitposting
You guess is wrong, not a single post about criminal border since release. No one here reads vn anymore.

>Me when someone asks me why I post in /jp/

>>46978519

>>46978463
Yeah, the only real surprising thing was Hina being actually dead. I was expecting it to be a bit longer since it's the finale but once things start rolling it goes pretty quickly. I enjoyed reading it but afterward I feel like it was kind of underwhelming. Being episodic, we spent a lot of time waiting on cliffhangers so I feel like this episode doesn't really live up to the previous one. But either way it was nice reading something so atypical for the medium. Wonder how people reading it all at once will feel.

>>46979629
This level of subtlety is unnecessary for a game. I want all my games to be straightforward in their message, so I don't have to second-guess what characters mean to say.

>>46979496
I wish they made a comeback, very much prefer their games over Yuzu because they have no issues showing 3P scenes and their settings are much better. Of course, if their gacha is profitable there is no reason to end it but they could do both things side by side

>>46978519
I'm very likely in the minority, but having looked at the "art" shown when they announced the 1st episode, I decided that it looks fucking disgusting and I'm not touching any of it with a ten feet pole. Fast forward to this day, and I still have no reason to reconsider.

sakutoki reminds me
i am some 40 years late, i recently got into Haruki Murakami
read Norwegian Wood a while ago and it pleasantly reminded me of Sakura no Uta
the portrayal of grief, the depiction of sense of loss in the former reminded me of a certain character's death in sakuuta, and it's amazing

but as a duology, it's a fantastic culmination of everything that made DI good
my issue with DI is that it's outright cringe to read, like highschoolers using pew pew chunni powers was but it's not the case here, the setting matches with the avante grande style of the narrative the fights are insane to read, like imagine the final fight of Ciel Route in TsukiRe and every battle here is

This is just some random ムジュラの仮面 picture from Google.

I know that some people brought it up before, but are you guys really archiving eroge for a doomsday scenario?

>>46982105
You should archive anything you care about to begin with mister.

>>46981168
https://www.pixiv.net/users/74642571/novels

>>46982105
Depends on what you mean by doomsday... something as in the internet becoming North Korea-tier with only government-approved websites and stuff, sure. But something like WW3 or a collapse of civilization... there would be bigger things to worry about, and even then you probably wouldn't have working computers or electricity to read the VNs in the first place (especially if it was something like a Carrington event)... though they're still worth saving. I also save translation patches and prefer multi-language releases to be able to share with other people and maybe even make money off of "weebs".
I currently have over 200 titles and it's close to 1 TB, but my drives are running low on space so I'm going to refrain from downloading too much until I buy other drives. I also save things other than VNs, such as anime, manga, games.

>>46982222
Remember if you don't seed, then in a doomsday scenario you could potentially be a single point of failure. The whole future of our art could depend on you.

>>46982222
What VNs/anime/manga do you think will be your best selling titles?

>>46982266
True.
>>46982270
I don't know, but if realistically speaking it would unfortunately be one of the battle shounen anime or manga I have saved several years ago but never ended up watching and never will. But if I was focused on sales I would be rather saving things that people unfortunately rather care about which is westoid shit like marvel or netflix slop, I don't know.

>>46982311
(Meant to attach this picture)

>>46982105
I'm archiving old eroge websites and what's currently downloadable from there using archive.org
That's about as reasonable as it gets. We're kinda already living in a doomsday scenario, barely able to buy stuff from Japan (as if it got nuked already).

>>46982222
This sounds like it could be an intersting vn on its own. Don't forget to leave some parts out of the patch to sell for a premium or stimulate them to actually learn the language.

>he doesn't use gpt-4 to automatically detect and filter off-topic posts

One thing I've been wondering about is criminal border prominently features some fairly brutal murders, rape, torture, and drug smuggling, but at no point do they EVER say a specific name of any drug and they refer to it as ぶつ almost exclusively and dance around the subject. Is there some kind of rule or regulation about the depiction of drugs in Japan? It just seems odd that you can show someone getting raped or murdered but not just say heroin or cocaine. Or maybe Fumi thought it would work better if he kept the drug ambiguous or he just doesn't know much about drugs.

Anyone here used dlpay how safe is that shit?
Some anon told me to use it, i tried only to get hit with a phishing warning email from dlsite what's up with that?
Sucks because that's the only way i can get my hands on this game.

>>46982740
What game?

>>46982714
>Or maybe Fumi thought it would work better if he kept the drug ambiguous or he just doesn't know much about drugs.
It's probably this. If you don't name the drug specifically, it can do whatever you want. The story is already asking you to suspend your disbelief for Rave. Doing it again for an unspecified "drug" isn't that far of a stretch.

>>46982714
That's like... denial of African-American culture. So unethical...

>>46982714
I've seen this in JP translations of media where the original does name the drug, so I think there is some kind of taboo + people not knowing what different drugs do. The most popular drug in Japan is meth though and they did say シャブ漬け, which I think is specifically meth or other stimulants.

Is Criminal Border just Breaking Bad the eroge? I was going to play it for the bad girls but now I'm not so sure.

>>46982714
Japan is cucked when it come to drugs just like the whole sex with anyone below 18 which is why also they dance around that subject as well

>>46983271
>Japan is cucked when it come to drugs
This. They should be more like the US and have more freedom to explore in a safe space and not be judged.

>>46983271
Man why can't Japan and the rest of the world embrace weed like us Americans do...?

>>46982768
The game was only-one Sayaka version.
But it's ok dw i found a dvdpg on amazon.
I don't really like dvdpg but i'll make an exception for this one.

zaza

>>46983283
Weed smells like a dead skunk, lowers your IQ, and can turn you schizophrenic. I seriously think that it's contributing a lot toward the US (and anywhere else it's legal) becoming dumber and more insane. I think Japan has the right stance on it. I don't think I've ever met a weed smoker who wasn't at least slightly trashy.

Don't worry they are pretty much like americans already where they think saying a drawing being 17 in eroge automatically sends your company and you to jail for pedophilia

Heh, there's the obligatory nude/h-scene tease. Come to think of it, does this mean she's wearing the MC's dead grandma's clothes?

Also even though logically speaking Atri has not yet had much of an opportunity to build a strong relationship with the MC at this point, this scene still hit me with the feels. I'm weak to nakige especially when it comes to cute and innocent robot girls.

Reading ISLAND blind made me get blindsided by the super garbage ending, but it also got me to enjoy some of the more interesting twists a lot, so it was an unforgettable experience overall even if I was livid at the end.

Being stranded on an uninhabited island with inept girls is a concept worth exploring more. I'm willing to suspend my disbelief about this shit not really being possible in this day and age gladly if we get more games like 濡れる孤島 in exchange.

>>46984562
when I got online as teenager I was very confused at how stranded on island and nudism weren't the most popular genres.

>>46984604
For me it's how few kitsune heroines there is out there.

>>46981730
there used to be alternatives, one being some script that worked some magic with no account and another being a program that could get massive speeds but used some cookie trick, i dropped both methods when they stopped working so i don't know if the issues were ever fixed but you could always ask here if it's thread related

>>46984291
If you've read a lot of VNs, some elements will be more interesting for you than a person who has read very few. The part of the story that is improved is early on, roughly in the first third.
You'll also be less likely to get stuck and fail to make progress in the story, which can happen under some circumstances. I read it when I was very new and got stuck for maybe ~3 hours.

That all being said, I wouldn't delay reading it.
It's a very rich, complex novel that benefits from being read at a slower pace and mulled over and enjoyed thoroughly. One of its defining characteristics is that the scenes are designed to be read multiple times. I still noticed new things even the fourth or fifth time I read some scenes.
Because of that, there's really no harm in just jumping into it. You'll miss out on some things your first time through, but that just gives you more to discover when you revisit it.

>>46984774
I don't know bro, I have thought about making VNs or stories in other mediums before, but it would be hypocritical because of my universal denial of non-Japanese media.
Though I also don't like "normal" Japanese media, only "otaku" stuff. This hasn't been done a lot if ever in the west, but if I somehow managed to make an otaku work it would be acceptable, and even better than non-otaku Japanese stuff. Of course, it would also have to be written in Japanese from the start.
There is a mini-e-celeb with similar ideas. I won't link him but his newest video is titled "My JRPG Is the First Real Japanese Storytelling In the West" (beware of basedjacks; his ideas are good otherwise though)

Only in the sense that it comes with a copy of the original in the box.
I haven't read it myself, but the idea of another author going back to Cross Channel and "adding new content" just feels insulting to me.

If you'd like further reading after finishing, you can check out the two short stories Tanaka Romeo wrote after the game's release. Link (contains massive spoilers): https://exhentai.org/s/8d1f87d074/1053373-92
Also be sure to play Nanaca Crash! It's one of the best VN minigames ever.

>>46985379
Second eroge. I played Sengoku Rance and then Cross Channel.
I was quite young; I actually learned how to extract .rar files to play it.
It was just magical, I went in completely blind. I read it over the course of a whole summer vacation, so even the season was completely perfect.
I had never read anything like it before so I didn't even have a sense of how long it was going to be. It felt like it was just going to go on forever.
When I reached the ending, I was a different person than when I'd started. I've been hooked on reading VNs ever since.

I was worried that when I went back to it after reading so many other VNs that it wouldn't be as good as I remembered, but when I did return to it, it was just as magical from the word go. Took me right back to that summer.
Wouldn't trade those memories for anything, but I'll admit I'm a little jealous of you guys reading it for the first time too. Enjoy it; you've picked a real one.

DLSite did, however, nuke their entire AI catalogue formerly available at dlsite.com/aix (and nothing of value is lost, sure, but they still doubled down on sucking even harder than they did the first time with renaming the tags - which still stay cucked btw)

Finished Tsui no Sora, that was pretty good. I'm not sure why it's considered such a 駄作 when it was such a pleasure to read. The imagery and motifs introduced in Yukito's route continue to play a role in the story until the end, and then the epilogue prompts you to consider what that might have meant. In a way it reminded me of Shizuku's optimism, and I certainly see similarity in Ruriko and Ayana's characters. Certainly mechanically it's not a polished work by any means, but that never took away from the fun of reading it.
Hopefully I can get my hands on Sayooshi or for elise next.

The OP screenshot was made with RAVU_Zoom_AR_R3_RGB. That scaler is quite good at preserving details without oversharpening. It has no watercolors effect of oversharpening filters like A4K and such. I'm not sure why you have a problem with it.

>>46990172
>I'm not sure why you have a problem with it.

>The OP screenshot was made with RAVU_Zoom_AR_R3_RGB.
There clearly is some kind of sharpening filter or something over it. Pic related is that scene upscaled with only ravu-zoom-ar-r3-rgb.hook.

>>46990277
Upscaling is no better than MTL. You would also "seethe" if there were MTLers shitting up the thread, right? Or maybe not, since you're probably one.

Lmao, imagine getting mad that someone isn't enjoying VNs the right way. The internet is crazy.

>>46990362
So true, sister. It hurts my feelings so much when someone says that I don't get the full experience when I read MTL.

filters must be doing some good work because i have no idea what you guys are talking about
just filter out whatever it is they're baiting with

It's insane how a person can learn Japanese because trannylations are not accurate, and then just shit the art without caring about the grotesque errors of AI upscale.
>It's not 100% lossless? It's not the same art? It looks like plastic? Who cares lol

So true, irony weeb sister.

Atri is the adorablest. Really wish her VA did more VN voice work because she's killing it here.

Not sure how to feel about the school subplot yet. It looks like this will be part of the MC's path to self-healing as he finds a purpose in teaching others. But it also feels a bit cheesy given how the school's pretty much done for at this point, so as much as it's nice to educate people it's not going to matter a lot when it's just a single digit group of kids. Also I'm not big on the idea of presenting Minamo as a romantic rival to Atri given that Atri is the only real heroine, it might have been better if she only saw Natsuki as a friend to avoid pointless heartbreak like in LN plots.

>>46993482

There are two modes for the UI, one for touchscreen devices and one for regular computers and I happened to have the touchscreen UI on without realizing it. Thanks for letting me know, I prefer the non-touch one.

>>46993899
Not VNs but all the "best anime of all time" kind of ratings include un-anime-like or "subversive" anime (eg. Ghibli, Madoka, etc) and battle shounen shit, and also my favorite show of the season (Tenshi-tsuki) literally has a rating lower than 4/10 on AniDB (and a lot of shows I like have low scores too). It might be less bad with VNs since they're more niche, but I still wouldn't trust anyone's opinions (especially westoids) other than fellow Anons.

>>46993886
if a game by a developer i already like gets a super high rating it will sway my opinion on playing it

Bros... i'm already all in red gear and getting those ccc ranks in pvp... just how much longer i need to grind to be considered a real chink...

>>46993136
No one will seriously talk about what they are reading while the thread is in this state

>>46993886
I read EXTRAII just because I wanted to know how the fuck a moege can get such a high score

>>46993955
Critical and/or public opinion of a work won't bother me in any case, whether something I dislike is beloved or something I like has a bad reputation I will simply like what I like. I do think it can be interesting to see what's highly regarded and what isn't compared to what you enjoy, also using the genre stuff caa maybe be helpful in evaluating what critical opinions mean. Personally I love battle shounen, but if, for example, shounen gets more respect from media criticism people moekei yonkoma adaptations, then a series from the latter category being evaluated unusually high by those crowds could be indicative of something. It could mean it's popular for synthetic reddit type specimens to say it's revolutionary and subversive of the genre like Nichijou (not that Nichijou isn't great it just is used that way by those people for some reason) or it could just be really appealing in a certain way that it managed to win over people who don't usually take an interest in the genre. For example if you saw a reviewer who you know hates battle shounen like you praise a battle shounen series up and down it might indicate that it's worth giving a try..
Also Ghibli isn't really unanime, Miyazaki is just really insecure and pretentious but deep down he made what he made cause he wanted to depict cute little girls but can't admit to himself that that's really what it's all about for him
I will agree with you that the fact that you can say you like Ghibli and go "well I don' tlike THAT kind of anime I'm insecure haha" is why Ghibli gets such inflated reception regardless of how good it is

>>46993991
Kind of sad to read a post like this. Are you really going to let the shitposting get to you and prevent you from contributing something positive to the thread by sharing your own experiences? Just post normally and use the magic report button when necessary.

>>46994045
no one will reply to what i say anyway the chance is low even when the thread isn't in shitpost overdrive
if i was playing some moege yuzusoft shit then yeah it'd be worth it to post every ten mins

>>46994045
No, I just like to complain about things and point out others' flaws while pretending to be superior.

>>46994066
>if i was playing some moege yuzusoft shit then yeah it'd be worth it to post every ten mins
>shit
Be more careful with your wording, this gives the impression that you don't have a lot of respect for the medium.

>>46994076
no reason to respect a company that hasn't produced a single good game

>>46994108
Did you play all of them

Here's what I've been masturbating to all day if you are curious.

>>46994118
glad you're having fun

>>46994118
>if you are curious
Thank you, but we already know that homosexuality is on the rise.

>>46990344
There is something wrong with your setup. There is no other filters inserted there.

>>46994141
Anon, stop acting as if there's a containment board on this website for LGBT or a containment thread on this board for BL.

>>46993136
I wanted to but it's getting late and i wake up early tomorrow, i'll post another day.
I do however have the time to say that Gretel is very cute.

>>46994171
love me a girl who looks like she hasn't slept since bush was president

>>46976710
At first I was excited when I found out this was a proto-Yuzusoft lolige but I found out that the MC is a shota and I lost interest

>>46994167
Sorry you're actually right. My original source capture was flawed. I redid it and now it's the same minus the text which is just different fonts.

>>46994338
It's really fun to find all kinds of similarities to later Yuzu games in this one.
MC is a shota but it's not too bad.

>>46993346
1000 and 1 kfb
>>46993983
Just keep going at least 1k maybe 10k, that shit ramps up fast. Also get 100-150 points on daily login at /kf_lv200.php

>>46994338
I mean I guess if you were going for the taboo age gap thing then yeah obviously this isn't the game for you. But it's cute enough love between two kids.

>>46992043
it has tons of individual games from a company with many games, my personal collection looks better than that, the masterlist we had also looked better

>>46994396
I don't mind the idea of reading a loli x shota romance and I'm sure it can be cute and wholesome, it's just that I wouldn't be picking up something like this for the H-scenes since I can't self-insert into little boys when it comes to sex. No hard feelings to anyone who faps to that stuff of course, it's just my personal problem.

LMAO
Do all Bishop games have this?

>>46994436
Anon that's been standard in bishop games for over a decade.

>>46994426
Just recall how you yourself was an innocent elementary schooler at one point and it'll be easy enough to self-insert.

>>46994399
Nice to hear.
There is also faust's archive website with games separated per company; but you probably already know that one.

>>46994436
Image for ants.

>>46994386
>10k
Of what?
What is even supposed to ramp fast? I've been doing this shit daily for more than a month already...
Last time the anon promised me 2-3 days and done

>>46994450
Nice, this is my first Bishop game
>>46994477
Because it's just a small part of the screen

>>46994570
>2024 release
>bishop is still using 1024x768
I respect them for sticking to their format.

>>46994463
>faust's archive
don't know that off the top of my head, i fucked off from collecting for a few years and only recently started up again. i basically stopped when kf switched its games and missed out on those early bonuses

>>46994338
and onto the backlog it goes

>>46994570
>Nice, this is my first Bishop game
If you're done with it you can safely say you know them all.

>>46994545
You are right, my bad. I'll stop referring to old information. As I said before the admin must have nerfed the gains of early levels by a lot.
If you don't use any eroge extras like bonus CDs or getchu/amazon specific bonuses you stop the grind now.
>>46994586
Talking about this guy's website /read.php?tid=910275&sf=6e3

>>46994777
I still can't access anything at all, it will just throw me back to the home page when i try to open some of the links no matter what
There is definitely got to be something else you have to do other than the minigame grind

>>46994797
What are your progress points at? link: >>46994386
That's the main spam protection shit the admin is using.

>>46994820
Also 150
I've been logging literally daily

>>46994834
Seems weird. You should be able to access the main sharing area /thread.php?fid=41 as the admin says that it requires 145.
Try replying to a popular thread with thanks for sharing (translated ofc) or something.

How dare you say this to her
こんな時いつも主人公に怒りを覚えるな

>>46994777
yeah i didn't know about that site, i don't usually browse kf unless i'm actively looking for something, looks like you also need an account and reputation or whatever
