yeah it is.

Simply put, yes. I assume you already started playing. If you haven't heard, the usual recommendation is Tsugumi first, Sara fourth, and Coco's route starting with the Kid.

Not really, but it feels good to finish it completely.

Yeah it's a pretty big mindfuck, too bad it takes forever for this game to get anywhere near decent.

Not OP, but I'm also playing through this. Have Tsugumi and Sora's routes done and dusted with, now starting You's. It's... alright, so far. Not as enthralling as R11.

I thought Tsugumi's route was great, the good end was so sad.
Same with Sora's route.
You's was pretty boring, and Sara's was alright.
I never understand why most people say that every route sucks besides Coco's

>>6089023
yeah ever17 is pretty hyped up, but it's really not all that good.

Even cocos route isn't anything real amazing. I think everybody liked it so much because the game finally fucking ends.

Chicken sandwiches: the VN

Read Remember11 instead

Yes.

But then I only got really bored while reading Sora's route. The ending didn't make any goddamn sense either. If Takeshi died with her inside Lemu, how can he be dead on the ocean floor for Coco's route?

>>6089035
This.

Is Remember11 translated? If not it doesn't make much of a difference to me if it's better.

>>6089047
It is

>>6089023
Remember11 and Ever17 are complete opposites.

R11 has a gripping, exciting feeling from start to finish, you just can't put it down. When everything is fine and dandy at it's peak, it punches you in the face, shits in your mouth and makes you cry tears of displeasure.

E17 is a bit boring until you shit bricks at the ending and feel warm and fuzzy and perfect. Better aftertaste.

>>6089054
Those were hilarious, I liked them.
"Naturally, I knows the hacker"
"You're stupidity"

People like Ever17 so much because it's baby's first VN, and there is way too much nostalgia fagging and circlejerking around it.

What bugged me the most were all the typos in the translation.

>>6089052
According to TLwiki it's still not finished.

>>6089054

>>6089035
Pretty ballsy text from someone who refers to himself as Clannad.

I shat facepalms at the end, not the bricks.

>>6089061
I don't even know how people can read that shit in English and still say they enjoyed it so. The translation is atrocious.

>>6089040

BlickWinkel explained it somehow. Yes, it still doesn't make sense because "correcting" past in reality is impossible because of paradoxes and loops.

>According to TLwiki it's still not finished.

Then how come i finished translated Remember 11 weeks ago?

>>6089110
Not sure but I believe it's 'not finished' because they're not done editing it yet. The translation's done.

>>6089073
But Clannad is considered best VN by Japan, you're opinion is invalid.

>>6089125

It's not like Niponees have good taste in VNs

>>6089146
I guess that's why Ever17 is near the top.

>>6089125
Ever17 is almost as highly rated, buddy.

>>6089125
It's the same as the west. You have lots of Japanese who have only played a handful of VNs who rate it so highly.

>>6089125
Some do that. Majority prefers MLA.

Not directly related to this thread, but it's pretty funny how translation readers try their hardest to be elitist and are really trigger happy to rate every VN shit. It's kinda pointless when you have a pool that small to choose from, you're just ruining it for yourselves. With a selection that small, you should try enjoying every decent VN to it's fullest instead of hunting for flaws and getting buttravaged here.

I'd suggest getting a new hobby to practice your elitism on, it would be more worthwhile.

>>6089110
I don't see a patch anywhere on there.

read through 4 ending and they all sucked balls.
I don't recommend this shit to anyone.

>>6089195
The best thing is that every time a translation for a supposedly good VN is released, they bitch about overrated shit or Disney or whatever, always waiting and whining for the "real" good titles to be translated. The thing is, a lot of the great titles are already translated.

These people should really think of changing hobbies.

>>6089222

People say that as a joke, idiot

>>6089125
Last time I checked, it was
1. Clannad
2. Ever17
3. Symphonic Rain

>>6089284
wrong, it's:
YU-NO
Steins;gate
Clannad
Muv-Luv Alternative

(and this was 30 sec ago)

>>6089195
1. Read all the currently translated VNs that interests you
2. Get bored because there's nothing new to read
3. Have nothing to do other than trolling /jp/

>>6089343
>>6089284
What are you guys looking at? This is what I see.

>>6089195
>I'd suggest getting a new hobby
Already did. VNs are shit.

>>6089362
>Read all the currently translated VNs that interests you

FUCKING GAMESTOP

>implying VNs are my hobby and not my raison d'etre

>>6089394
I miss the days when the norm was to express yourself through step-by-step guides rather than greentext.

>>6089457
Was that back when you were on /b/?

>>6089386
this

>>6089007

Actually, I think it's better to play the Kid routes first (and thus going You, Sara, Sora, and Tsugumi). Why?

In the Kid routes, Coco is set up as this mysterious, transient existence, and if you know there's a Coco route before playing the game you might assume that her identity will be a central focus of the meta-plot.

However, upon starting the Takeshi routes, she's suddenly just THERE. With no real explanation. And Sara is gone.

It's like a brick twist you create yourself.

>>6089486
Why are you using the median instead of the average? Average score makes more sense to me in these kinds of things.

>>6089211
Play Coco's route.

Everything will make sense, you'll feel like an idiot, and you'll love the entire game in retrospect.

>>6089502
Average count trolling, anti and shit too much.

>>6089531
I don't see how, with median they're all tied for first place, and with average there is only a 1.5 point difference between MLA in first and Clannad in 5th.

>>6089497
That's exactly how I did it and I agree with you that this order produces best tweest especially because You don't get to see IBF in Kid's routes so the Himmel door remains very mysterious, also you don't learn about CURE until the end

Thank God, I'm not the only one who thinks doing Kid's routes isn't a bad thing.

For the record, I did You --> Sara --> Sora --> Tsugumi. And then Kid/mai waifu, of course.

>>6091496

I did Sara before You. That was probably a bad decision.

I liked all the routes. I didn't even skip over any of the scenes during replays.

>>6089486
>sorting by median
wtfamireading.gif

>>6091496
The install discs are printed You-Sara-Tsugumi-Sora.

>>6091782
Sora's route has nothing on Tsugumi's route. Everyone should play Tsugumi's route last.
