Many of us can't speak moon or are not at the level to be able to read moon perfectly, but that shouldn't stop us from experiencing the awesomeness that are VN's. So I want to make a list of VN's that have been translated so more people can enjoy them.

I'll start:

Of course there is http://shii.org/translate/ that lists a lot of translated VN's, both eroge and not. Then there's http://at2006.haeleth.net// but these are very short and probably won't keep you playing for more than an hour.

Translated VN's that are not on either of those sites I have found include:

Yume Miru Kusuri
Snow Sakura
Ever17
Kana's Little Sister
Tokimeki Check-in
Figures of Happiness
Snow Drop
Little My Maid
Let's Meow Meow
Castle Fantasia 2 (jrpg/vn)

Anyone is welcome to add to the list.

>> No.593212

Tsukihime
Fate/Stay Night

>> No.593216

>>593203
You know, most of the ones you listed are the LICENCED ones.

Except for Castle Fantasia 2, which is pretty good.

For some reason, the more people say that, the more I want to play it. I hear people say it's incredibly long and boring and I just start longing for it for some crazy reason. I don't know if I'm masochistic or just contrary.

You probably cried in Heart De Roommate with forced 'I'm dead inside' girls, unexplained fatal diseases that let you run around like a retard for 15 years and forced drama because people have ALWAYS got to get involved in other peoples' problems.

That doesn't make these games enjoyable for the common denominator.

Snow Sakura was alright. It's not tsukihime or ever17 but it's not terrible.

Guys, by VN I don't think the OP meant hentai games.

I mean, how the hell is Let's Meow Meow anything like Tsukihime or Crescendo?

>> No.593646

Fate Stay/Night is a good starting point for VNs. People here like to hate it but it's actually quite good. Sort of like the people who go SAGE TF2/BRAWL THREAD FOR TF2/BRAWL on /v/. You should give it a shot, some people love it.

Learn moonrunes to play good eroges. Most translated eroges = shit.

>> No.593672

>>593632
They are all eroges but I don't think eroges are
just one chunk. I think there are four categories:

1) Plain old games with porn pasted on, like shooters, puzzlers and RPGs. Fairly common on good old PC98.
Plays like wannabe console shit, has awesome art.

2) The kichiku games, the train molesting & tentacle rape games with emphasis on variety of sex acts & fetish characters(nurses, housewives, OLs).

3) The stuff with emphasis on character moe. These have the school setting as the most common trait and plot event based on passing of the school year .

4) Epic plot games with all the characters being intertwined with each other in strange ways.

Wind doesn't really suck. It's not a bad game. It's just not a good game.

I think the main problem a lot of people, myself included, had with Wind was that it was minori's first release after BITTERSWEET FOOLS, and compared to that, it definitely disappointed, having a much simpler story and being too 'ordinary'.

minori's made up for that with Haru no Ashioto and again with ef, I think. Haven't played ANGEL TYPE.

I didn't play any other minori game, but I still thought Wind was very lame. I actually read it because I reconned if someone put so much work into a translation, it should be a game worth such care. Obviously I didn't know how stupid NNL are back then.

actually, the way it came about was essentially because there was a bit of an existing translation project for wind, started by some randoms. the only reason a bunch of pretty talented people invested time into it was because the project existed at the time and had momentum. starting a new translation project of something else would have lost said momentum and likely have not gone anywhere

The idea was to translate a visual novel, any visual novel, not necessarily one that was good but one that was passable, decently lengthed and plot-based. Wind had a project, and the rest just happened.
