/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Playing Rewrite, finished Lucia's route, now finishing what's left of the common route to get to Kotori's.
So lengthy.

>>7534258
>So lengthy.
You're saying it like it's a bad thing.

>>7534262
I thought I had finished the common route when I got to Lucia's.
The pacing is good so I don't mind it.

>>7534262
Not this guy but the common route was far too long for what it was.
I don't have anything against slice of life but I was a bit disappointed by the humor.
The routes themselves though seem excellent so far.

>>7534282
So is the music, tracks like withering, journey or carnation are excellent.

Talking about Rewrite, who wrote which routes? Since it has several writers.

>>7534328
Ryu wrote Lucia, Tonogawa wrote Shizuru's probably and Tanaka the rest I believe.
Thoug wasn't it supposed to have a mystery writer working too?

>>7534328
Romeo: Kotori, Akane, Moon, Terra
Tonogawa: Chihaya, Shizuru
R07: Lucia

>>7534340
>Moon, Terra

(the one linked in OP was the one before last one)

Since the Sona-nyl web novel finally came out, here's the the Sona-nyl sketch/art book I scanned a while back! http://www.mediafire.com/?11c8x810iya6xyg

In addition to that, I just got the cd that comes with last month BugBug magazine which got an extra gag scenario for Sona-nyl and G-senjou no Maou. Since I don't think this is shared anywhere, here are the links in case someone wants it too.

Anyone got the siscon patch?

>>7534407
>>7534421
Thanks, stuff like this usually doesn't get uploaded anywhere.

Aha, the writer change is so obvious in Lucia's route, Ryuukishi has such an obvious style.

>>7534421
the extra gag scenario is actually some commemorative thing for the magazine mascot, so don't play it thinking it's properly about Sona-nyl, it's more about those characters interacting with said mascot.

This is the scene where I gained a new fetish.

>>7534422
Looks like the siscon patch is not out yet.

To those who are reading Rewrite, what's the MC like? Bland, interesting, puny Riki-like weakling?

>>7534545
He is kind of like Taichi without the pervertedness and the sociopath tendency.

>>7534563
so he isn't like Taichi at all?

>>7534579
He has the same type of frivolous character with a hidden side.
He isn't like any other Key protag at least

The surprise hit of the month may be Sukima Sakura, it's very enjoyable.

Lovely x Cation made me realize that I want more dating-sims. Pretty cool how some of your stats can influence H-scenes. You can drown your girl in cum with a high physical-fitness stat for example. Going for the delicious PE-teacher right now.

>>7534678
>You can drown your girl in cum with a high physical-fitness stat for example.
I've laughed when they explained that bit.
The stat building is pretty simple but ok, heroines are all attractive.

Oretsuba R isn't out yet?

Still not seeing Chronicles vol2 in Share, what's up with that?

>>7535515
Chronicles 01 took around a week to be uploaded.
Have some more patience.

So, does Rewrite have a good story?

>>7535614
Depends on what your expectations are. Key fans seem to be loving it, Romeo fans not so much.

>>7535954
Story is very chuuni, if you don't like this kind of thing don't play it.

>>7535954
Romeo's fans don't seem to dislike it, just that he dumbed down his style a bit so there isn't the brilliant proses of CC or Ima though Akane's route is supposed to be more Romeo-esque than the rest.
It's still enjoyable to read but it's not something to read for the writing.

Anyways I'm liking it quite a bit though surprisingly I found Chihaya's route, that was written by Tonogawa, better than Kotori's route, written by Romeo.

Just finished my first route in Rewrite, Chihaya's. Wish I didn't have to work so much or I would probably be done the whole thing by now.

>>7536107
>Story is very chuuni
can you elaborate on this? You mean the usual convenient setting where the protagonists are the good guys and always pull through and shit like that?
>>7536179
How did you like it so far?

>>7536230
It was ok. It didn't really have the same atmosphere I usually find Key games to have. The plot also reads like it is from a Shounen Jump manga. The humour wasn't as good as previous Key games, but still fine.

If I were to rate this game on this route alone I would say 7.5~8/10. Not amazing, but definitely worth a read.

I loved your fucking end, Kotori.
That's all I need to say, moving onto Chihaya.

>>7534243

My main problem with Rewrite is that the humor is pretty bad for me.
Only a few scenes with Yoshino and some of Kotori's cold jokes managed to get a smile out of me so far.
If I liked the humor better I would have gone through the common parts faster.

Grisaia had a hugeass common route made of slice of life after slice of life too, script-wise it was about 1mb but I went through it really quickly because the humor and character interactions in general was god tier, I just can't do it with Rewrite.

Anyways I'm on the 25 of October, anyone know when the story finally kick in?
Despite what I said about the humor I'm liking the foreshadowing and the cast is mostly nice so I don't want to drop it.

Still no Oretsuba R?
Damn, I can't wait to read Ai's route

I for one am pretty amused by Rewrites humor so far, but I can see how it won't fit everyone. Also like the foreshadowing and the characters, but hearing how it will turn chuuni later on is a bit worrying.

Chronicles 02 seems to have popped up on Share.
Only have found ~1/6 or so of the pieces though.

>>7537523
Closer to ~5/7 now, actually.

anyone played Hyper->Highspeed->Genius, it seems to be getting pretty good scores in EGS so was wonderinf how is it?

>>7537542
Don't trust those scores.

>>7536549
>My main problem with Rewrite is that the humor is pretty bad for me.

Angel Beats all over again, huh. Hope he improves on that when he's making the game version.

DEM WALLPAPERS

>>7536979
>I for one am pretty amused by Rewrites humor so far, but I can see how it won't fit everyone.

Yeah this. Found myself laughing at a lot of the scenes.

Shizuka Itou, so good.

The website for the delicious monster girl VN from Cyc Soft is open:
http://www.cyc-soft.com/poison-pro/princess-x/x-top/top.html
How the hell are you supposed to do it with a centaur, anyways?

I already love dat meido and the spider girl.

Just finished this shit. Not one of your all time masterpieces, but definitely a good read. Irene is mai waifu.
that feel when Irene X Lavi threesome

>>7537982
That spider girl is fucking scary but the robot girl is pretty cute.

Also wondering about the centaur, are you supposed to do it with the horse ass?

>>7537662
Not the same writer at all.

>>7537982
>Backbeard

I can't see this ending well. I agree though, I'll be looking forward to the spider. Too bad her spider half is yet another golden orbweaver, but I guess it can't be helped since those are the archetypal seductive demon spiders.

>>7537982
Too bad they didn't give dolljoints to the robot girl, she doesn't really look like she has any monster-like characteristics as it is.
I lol'd at Baaya

I wish Rewrite had something other than Mappi or whatever. It's truly boring. I liked LB's Baseball and fighting stuff. You could even turn them off if you didn't want them in subsequent playthroughs.

I see no option to turn off Mappi and it is annoying to manually skip through it.

>>7538670
Yeah the mappi is pretty annoying.
I wonder if there are some special scenes to get if you complete some of the quests and discover some hidden things though

Damn it. I wanted to do Shizuru's route next but I have to do Kotori's first to unlock it.

>>7535515
Chronicles 02 is already out on hongfire
http://www.hongfire.com/forum/showthread.php/360489

From the Rewrite threads in 2ch it seems the Tomogawa routes are considered better than the Romeo routes.
Who would have thought?

>>7538979
100% agreed. After full of awesomeness Chihaya route Kotori bored me to death.

currently playing rewrite, chihaya's route.
Barely started by can't understand shit about "our side" and Shizuru and Lucia are "maybe" our enemies

Probably explained later, but I have hard time to deal with characters being stingy with information (here, Sakuya and Chihaya).

Just finished [CLOCKUP] euphoria true route

At first I though this will be nukige armed with fetish fuel, words escape me after all the twist that happened

A++ title

>>7539367
Mind spoiler the twist? Did only sensei route and haven't been impressed, need stimulus to complete.

Been playing this lately. Just about to finish up Haruka's third chapter. Then I'm going to move onto the other routes. Gotta say though, it's pretty long, which is nice.

I'm really glad I never saw the anime. It would have spoiled the hell out of this game. I have no doubt that the experience of reading through it and getting to know the characters better leads to a much more fulfilling experience.

From what I've been through so far the three other male characters are total bros. Which was nice to have in there.

Why won't I stop crying ;_; I don't usually cry but damn.

>>7539490
post impressions when you get to the green haired girl route

>>7539509

Sure. But I still gotta go through Mitsuki's and Akane's routes. Which should take some time.

I now have the feeling that Homura's route is going to disappoint me or make me rage. Either way it should be interesting. I guess I'll have to make a thread once I get there.

>>7539509
Best route

I was hoping for more action with the dinosaurs showed in the second opening on Rewrite, so I was kinda disappointed. It was okay overall though, Little Busters! is still my #1 Key game.

So what's /jp/'s overall opinion on KGNE? Good, bad, mediocre, excellent? Haven't seen any threads on it.

>>7539528
Will never be translated.

>>7539524
That's the thing, I wasn't expecting dinosaurs or any of that shit at all. Which is why I was kinda peeved when I saw an armless T-Rex. THIS ISN'T THE KEY I KNOW AND LOVE.

>>7539523

I'm not opening that image. I despise spoilers. So I don't know if you're honest or trolling.

>>7539524
You finished it completely already?

>>7539534
Not completely, I'm still on the final route

>>7539529

Well, not everyone on /jp/ is limited to games with English patches. I'm certainly not. I thought this board had more people that were literate in Japanese than any other.

>>7539528
It's pretty excellent.
One of the first eroge I read so I may have nostalgia goggles but I seriously had shivers when THAT scene happened and the opening played, everything after that was a great rollercoaster of emotions.
I should play the remake one of these days.

>>7539537

Remake is great. Each of the three main heroines get an extra chapter for their routes that continue where the original left off. The CGs are all redone to be larger and are now widescreen. Pretty sure it also has the special fan disk route Which is based on the premise of what would have happened if THAT scene didn't happen. Haven't gotten to that part yet though, saving it for last.

>>7539536
I know. I just like using every chance I get to post that.

>>7539537

Was playing a bit last night and earlier today. Came to a flashback and saw Hayase in this outfit and had to save it.

Am I the only one who found it nigh impossible to fap to this game? For some reason all the scenes that I've gotten to so far have been right after an emotional scene and each time I was still trying to recover. It's not that the sex scenes were poorly done or anything, the exact opposite really, they contributed to the story on a much more significant level than other games I've played in the past.

Damn I can't keep focused playing Rewrite, I feel like a ADD fag, shit.
On the 28th going at a slow pace, I guess I don't have much compatibility with this game.

>>7539528
Good/very good (only played LE). It's probably meaningless to compare it with games in different genres, but I'd put it above Sharin/Eustia/S;G, below C†C/Muramasa/Baldrsky.

Manami's route contains what is probably one of the more crushing scenes I've seen in eroge (when Takayuki manages to get out of her house and meets Mitsuki and Shinji)

>>7539616
Any good?

>>7539617
Game of the year.

Chronicles 02?
More like not!Lelouch making funny faces.

>>7539528
It's good. Akane is the best.

So now that Rewrite is out only Taiyou no Ko and Mahoutsukai no Yoru for the VNs hyped for years.

What do you guys expect from the future VNs wise? Except for these 2 I don't see much promising projects.

I don't think any of Key's future VNs will be too great without Maeda.

>>7539809
next month there is Tenshi no Hane fumanaide, and for future there is Ikusa Megami Remake (and inevitable Genrin 3 someday) and Elfen Blaze (if it ever comes out) coming. and then there is few nukiges that I'm looking foward to but those are highly taste dependant.
Personally I couldn't care less about mahoyo, altough greatly looking foward to Taiyou no Ko.

>>7539823
>Elfen Blaze
That's the title by Inoue Keiji and age that hasn't even really been officially announced, yet right?
If it's still coming, I'd say they'd probably announce it after the KimiIta remake comes out.

>>7539809
In no particular order
Grisaia FD because I need my Kazuki and JB routes
Twinkle Crusader and Princess Witches crossover because Princess Witches is fucking amazing
Tenshi no Hane because I'm an ItsuSora fanboy

Am I the only one who gets annoyed when there are actual game CG's in opening movies?

>>7539849
I hate when they spoil shits like the opening of Steins;Gate for example

>>7539836
Yeah, I heard it has crazy script length or something.

Anyways, hype is not that good, it just sets expectations way too high. Rewrite is a pretty good as agame, but I have to struggle to not think of it as very disappointing after all the talk about it.
The less hype about games the better I say.

>>7539849
Because you feel like you've been spoiled? No, I feel the same even when people post CGs of mundane stuff here.

>>7539849
Only really when they spoil the basic plot, and have pretty much all of the CGs in it.

The best way to do an opening is to make it completely unrelated to what happen in the game.
Like the opening of Carnival for example

>>7539849
>>7539852
>>7539856

I can't stand spoilers, in any shape or form. I have all the tags on vndb.org disabled. I don't do google image searches for a game until I've finished it. I tend to skip OPs for games as soon as I notice what looks like CGs or plot related material.

It's not always easy but I've managed to play quite a few games without getting spoiled at all.

>>7539816
You mean Maeda is done writing?

>>7539890
He is currently writing Angel Beats the VN.
Couldn't care less about this though

>>7539872
you mean spoilers like this?

>>7539892
But afterwards, he'll write more for Key right? Rewrite just didn't feel like KEY at all.

>>7539897
Looking at Chihaya and Shizuru's routes, Tonogawa is good enough to carry Key, no need for Maeda.

>>7539872
Wow, you should get over that. I'm able to enjoy a game 100% knowing or not knowing spoilers, as it is almost always the buildup TO the spoiler + the payoff that is the best part.

>>7539900
I'd have to disagree, I've been a fan of Maeda since the beginning and Rewrite didn't have...that flair Maeda gives his work.

>>7539902
>I'm able to enjoy a game 100% knowing or not knowing spoilers
well, that's good for you, but not everyone is like you. Some like the surprise feeling of finally reaching a CG moment, or being thrown off their chairs by twists you didn't see coming.
Knowing something comes before it does sort of cheapens the enjoyment in my case.

That's why I play all the eroge I'm hyped for on release.

>>7539900
Tonokawa isn't that great. If Chihaya's route is considered one of the good ones in Rewrite then I am not looking forward to the rest.

Still want spoilers for what is so awesome in euphoria.

>>7540450

>>7540450
people die in painful ways
so deep

At Rewrite.
So far in term of route Shizuru = Chihaya > Akane = Lucia > Kotori
Key guy being better than Romeo, I'm shocked

>>7540551
Romeo isn't really that great of a writer...

>>7540470
I like this one better

>>7540551
I'm not very far in, but this doesn't feel like a Key game at all. I hope Maeda comes back after AB! novel is written.

>>7540578
Didn't Maeda step down as Key's main scenario writer though? Rewrite will probably still sell well enough for them.

>>7540580
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I CANNOT STAND FOR THAT

Poor Kotori.
Worst route, not even the real main heroine.

Can someone explain the dinosaurs and moon?

>>7540720
Play the game and see for yourself.

Oh god Michiru is voiced by Mizuhashi Kaori, you guys should have warned me.
My heart.

>>7540725
I'm on leave (army), so not enough time to play. Not to mention, haha, I don't even read fucking Japanese.

I just visited /a/, saw their VN threads, and remembered why no game should ever be translated.

>>7540750
I think that the best and most hyped should be tl'd, that way those who do not have time nor the means to learn Japanese can read them. Not everyone is as fortunate as everyone.

>>7540750

Why does a game you like being liked by idiots automatically make it a bad game.

Fuck you.

Inferiors shouldn't be allowed to play VNs in a language other than Japanese.

>>7540777
Moogy! I've missed you!

Finished Chihaya's route.
Ended up liking her a lot in the end after not liking her at all in the trial, she was so good.
I liked how the plots of Kotori/Lucia/Chihaya all connect to each other so well.
Moving onto Akane.

So Rewrite is shit after all?

lol at everyone who hyped themselves for keyshit

>>7540822
general consensus on 2ch would say otherwise

>>7540822
it's not, just not the masterpiece everyone was expecting
though I lol'd at seeing loss so angry, yeah

>>7540832
LoSs got angry?

>>7540822
People seem to like it overall.
Where do you see people calling it shit?

The only real complain I see is from the Romeo fanboys who hyped themselves too much in 2ch expecting the best thing since sliced bread, but even them don't hate it.
Even the R07 route is mostly liked

>>7540832
>>7540840
Loss is a pure retard, who the fuck care about him.

>>7540854
You probably have LoSs mistaken for Moogy

>>7540854
Masato, who is also pure retard, and probably thinks he is trolling hard right now.

>>7540870
I'm too busy to troll

>>7540822
Don't recall any one saying it's shit. It has been entertaining thus far, which is all I expected. I had hoped it would be better, but that doesn't mean it is bad.

Any news of admin of erogenews? He got to army or jail or got eaten by dinosaurs or something?

>>7541030
I guess he just stopped caring about the site, since everyone who cares about untranslated eroge can see news for themselves.
He tweets often so it's not like he disappeared.

Hows lovely cation? I haven't played a characterge/moege in a long time

>>7542463
I just started playing it myself. Not far enough to make any real opinions. My two complaints so far are that all the girls save one are far too healthy, and that there doesn't seem to be sprites for anybody other than the 5 heroines. So there is a male friend who has had a decent amount of appearances in the 30 minutes or so I played, and he has no sprite. Seems weird.

>>7542463
It's like Lover Able, if you played that one. The focus is in flirting with the heroines and couple life once you become lovers, the "drama" and plot are really weak but that's not what you're there for. The protagonist is a bit more average but I can't say I cared for Loverable's MC clown antics that much, and the art is a lot better. There's no imouto but two teacher heroines, their dynamic reminded me a lot of Marimo and Yuuko.

So...how is Chronicles 02?
There hasn't been much discussion about it.

>>7543092
Still playing other games, but it's the next on the list. From what I've read it's better than Chronicles 01, but still unsatisfingly short.

>>7543092
Started playing it. Man, starting the Day After and the very first scene is a shot of the Earth with sirens starting to wail and then panicked radio chatter -- ah, it's like finally coming home! How I've missed muvluv. Death in combat porn at it's finest.

>>7543092

Downloaded it yesterday, just getting started playing it.

>>7543145

I heard it was supposed to be longer than Chronicles 01, though I wasn't expecting even a significant fraction of Alternative's length. I still enjoyed TDA 00, so I'll probably enjoy this one too.

what other stories are in chronicles 2 aside from tda01?

>>7543486
the Eurofront side story and various radio/wallpaper materials, that's about it.

>>7543527
what are the euro front ones? is it a continuation of the rain dancers thing or is this the battle of britain shit that was in the pv?

>>7543534
it's a german squad that appeared in short stories before, but it's their first proper game appearance. I don't know if that's the battle of Britain since I didn't watch any PVs

Oh God, the Haggis scene literally made me die of laughter.

>>7543092
It's better than Chronicles 01.
Eurofront side story is about the son of a VIP, who's a cadet, in the Japanese Imperial army who is transferred to a European base to learn some stuff and evaluate stuff at the base as well over the course of 10 days.
It's mostly slice of lifeish and comedic stuff though, probably to balance out TDA01 desperate atmosphere.

>>7543674
Yeah, that was great. Though, for me nothing topped any of the Ralerstein moments.

>>7543746
Yeah, those were great too.

Oh right, just thought I should mention this.
Some one on /m/ pointed out that in TDA01, when "Yuuhi" shows up, she's voiced by Meiya's VA, not her normal one.

>>>/a/51229156

LoL :PPP

>>7544107
H-Hinoue drew those......?

>>7544181
YES

>>7544193
Wow, I have a better opinion of her now. Maybe she isn't a shitty artist after all.

By the way, can someone tell who who wrote what in Rewrite? Routes, etc....

>>7544200
read the fucking thread >>7534340

It's getting tiring following vn threads across three boards. I know /jp/ is where most of the people I'm actually interested in reading the opinions of post, but stil...

Why do so many people complain there is fantasy and battles in Rewrite?
Didn't they watch the second opening before playing the game or something?

Damn Terra is fucking long, I thought I was almost done with the game but I was wrong.

Can someone tell me how long routes are in Rewrite?

>>7544556
About 8 hours, depending on how fast you read maybe shorter.

I officially nominate Uhou Renka for the best nukige of the year. Goddamn, h-scenes in this game are just unbelievably hot.

Now back to fapping

Finally started Muramasa after having read the trial 2 years ago and deciding that my reading ability wasn't quite good enough yet.

Ah, lectures about history and Tsurugi, how I missed you.

So far this year

God: nothing
Excellent: Kamidori, Eustia, Grisaia
Very good: Rewrite, Artemis Blue, Aqua, Euphoria, Loverable
Good: Promia, Onigoko

Anything good I missed?

Last week my 17 inch (1440x900) monitor died on me, so I had to break out my old 14 inch (1024x768). Now when I try to launch Aiyoku no Eustia, I get this
<<<

Anybody know how to fix it without reinstalling?

I know this isn't a help corner. But anyone ever tried to play "Lust Scripter"?
I got it, and ran it, got some Japanese error thing, and only then noticed how I was supposed to copy an "Assemblage.INI" to the windows folder and set the path.
Thing is though, no matter what I do now, it won't find the directory anymore, and I can't even manage to get the first error in Japanese again. Now it only complains about not finding the in game files, even though they are there.

>>7545894
Looks like you like to eat and praise shit.

>>7545894
haven't played all of those, and so using EGS as reference, but I'd bump Kamidori to God-tier from perspective of gameplay and it having stayed at median of 90 in EGS (line which is decently good to draw the line of kamige). and I'd bump Artemis Blue and Euphoria up a tier. Also I'd add Vermilion and Tits Explorer there somewhere (very good tier)

>>7545894
I'd put Eustia, Rewrite, Kamidori, Grisia, Loverable, and Kamikaze Explorere all on good tier, and all the other ones you listed somewhere below that.

Just finished Euphoria. It's been a while since a VN managed to entertain me this good, not a single dull moment in this entire fucking game, more VNs need this kind of pacing. The plot-twist in the true route was also really well done, didn't see that coming. The stuff after the credits was kind of unnecessary though.
I was just looking for a quick fap and found something that I really like, feels good man.

I'm looking for a game where the (male) protagonist gets raped by either a futa or another man. Preferably while wearing a dress.

Is there anything like this? I tried searching VNDB, but it wasn't much help.

>>7547530
Did you try the yaoi tag?

>>7547625
I was looking for something more along the lines of this.

Anyway, あすか♂女装美少年凌辱ストーリー looks pretty good, so I'll try that out.

Finished lovely cation.

As the name says, it has a very lovely feeling to it. In terms of being a dating sim, I'll give it like 95 and that's only because the routes could be a bit longer. Everything about it is really high spec. I don't think there'll be a dating sim that can top this, ever.

But because it's the best dating sim potentially forever, the flaws of the genre become very apparent. When you remove all the relics of the past that lengthen play time such as health and money management and doing weight lifting for like two weeks before trying to go for the sports girl and then reloading every day on every location to try and get a flag with the girl you're after, you see that there's really not much left. What's left is satisfying yes but short.

And it's just so weird to see a protagonist change so completely just to suit the girl's needs. Found out she likes a certain artist? Better go down to the record store to buy that artist's latest album and study the shit out of it so you got something to talk about. Found out she likes a certain brand of movie? Better get the DVD and study the shit out etc etc. It's like the protagonist not only has zero personality but he's a cookie shaper molded to the girl's taste. It's just so silly but I guess that's the point of this genre.

This was the best dating sim and I guess dating sims are just not for me. The どS kouhei was cute as fuck though.

> I don't think there'll be a dating sim that can top this, ever.
You mustn't have played a lot of dating sims then. It's a pretty good game but hardly anywhere near the top.

Anyone who's played both Nobleworks and Parfait Chocolat- Second Brew want to give me some of their opinions? I don't have much free time nowadays, so I want to invest it wisely. (Though I've heard that both games are fairly decent).

>>7548218
Noble Work isn't bad for a moege, it's fairly fast paced and light.
Parfait is a classic and definitely worth reading

>>7548120
Thank you for taking the time to write this.

>>7548120
Does the game change or something? I've been aiming for the first year and all I really do is go to the arcade and keep getting events for her. The game doesn't really seem to require much thought, and I'm not quite sure I understand the importance of the stats.

>>7548120
The fuck teachers are also virgins? This is retarded.

>>7548866
It's mostly to get the bonus effects like the choice of coming outside/inside and more heated faces. Also I think some scenes don't happen if you don't have enough of a particular stats.
>>7548959
One went to an all-girls school so she's not comfortable with men, and the other is pretty masculine so she scares them away. Those archetypes are not that farfetched in eroge.

>>7548525
Source?

>>7548983
Propeller's latest game.

>>7548983
すきま桜とうその都会
Full of DEEP (in a good sense) jokes.

>>7548212

Name one then. I don't think you know what a dating sim means. It certainly doesn't mean an ADV.

>>7548866

Like the rest of the chicks, to into their route you can pretty much keep going to the same two locations. However if you want to max their affection asap and get their optional sex scenes you have to be more varied, have a bit of foresight and/or get the secret book from the library after your first playthrough. I went through Aya too on my first playthrough and I didn't get her affection into love until like the last sex scene and I missed out on all the optional ones.

>>7547511
I'm loving the story so far. I started reading last night, got to where the one girl got electrocuted and then stopped for the night.

>>7549060
even the tokimeki memorials are better dating sims than this. The stats aspect is really shallow, as are the story developments. I'm not saying it's a bad game, but thinking it's the pinnacle of dating sims is a bit an exageration, imo.

>>7549087

Then I guess that's just your opinion vs my opinion. I feel this is the better form of the game part of dating sims then the tokimekis. Though yeah, like I said the routes are very short.

>>7549060
The game doesn't really feel like a dating sim at all to me. The stats only seem relevant to optional stuff the way I hear it. And clicking on girl icon and getting event doesn't really seem like it requires a ton of work.

She doesn't have to love you to have sex with you? That seems pretty slutty. How do you check her affection for you?

>>7549231

Right click. If she loves you then her face will change and there'll be hearts all around here. If she doesn't love you then she won't let you cum inside.

mein waifu

Visitor from /a/ here.

I just started playing F/SN and Tsukihime.

So, I'm a total entry-level newfag.

For everyone who is reading Euphoria: make sure to read the 'evil' route BEFORE the true end. Doing it the other way round is just soul-crushing.

>>7549575
I'm right now doing my first route Rinne's, who's is true route, Kanaes? and do you get evil route by choosing everyone once?

It's me of she is more an more beautiful as the VN plays?

>>7549599
what

>>7549599
....?

>>7549592
No, Kanae's route splits into the true and 'evil' end. There is no real ending if you alternate between the heroines.

>>7549599
Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

Chihaya's route? More like Sakuya's route.
But Chihaya is really cute too.
I'm really liking the story of Rewrite for some reason

Started the Terra chapter in rewrite.
That's the biggest wow I've had in a really long time.
Moon was really interesting too.

Does Sukima pick up the pace a bit later on? I'm around the second choco-tan episode thingie and all the everyday stuff is starting to feel a bit dull

whats the most tear-inducing translated VN out right now ?

>>7550034
Depends really.
ef is probably the only that had me actually crying for a sizable amount of time, rather than just tearing up a bit.

Where the fuck is OreTsuba? Doesn't anybody care about this game or what.

>>7549599
If I understand correctly, this has happened to me before. It isn't just you.

>>7550034
Clannad is the crowned king of the nakige genre.

This thread is motivating me to study more kanji. JPLT 1 kanji deck 12% done in Anki. At this rate, I suppose I should be done with this deck around November. Can't wait to play some VNs.

>>7550240
Ganbatte, anon!

>>7550184
Maybe if you've never played a nakige before that.

>>7550240
You can learn as you read you know. Use TA + Jparser + Mecab + JDIC, as well as optional machine translation if you feel uncomfortable with those alone.

>>7550296
VN hipster. Clannad is tied for the 2nd best VN of all time, Japan agreed.

http://erogamescape.dyndns.org/~ap2/ero/toukei_kaiseki/toukei_median.php?erogame=null&coterie=nu
ll

>>7550335
And?
If a site existed for anime and Naruto was number 2, would you agree with it? Those are just peoples opinions, and a lot of people who play Clannad haven't played a ton of other VNs. Just checking some of the users that have given Clannad 90~100 point ratings, and a lot of them have played less than 20 VNs, and plenty have played under 15.

>>7550414
How would you else crown a king of nakiges if not by peoples opinions?

Talking about nakige, it's been a while since I saw a straightforward one.
I guess its era ended

>>7550507
Well sure, but the opinions of people who have only played a few nakige don't really seem that relevant to me.

Clannad is still pretty high

What do you guys think is the funniest eroge?

>>7550672
That's even more difficult than the saddest VN, especially as people will find different types of humor far funnier than others.
Like for me, Kishin Hishou Demonbane had some of the funniest scenes I've ever read, but I wouldn't exactly call it the funniest I've read.

>>7550008
I've completed main route and one character route in one day off.

>>7550730
All right, if it's relatively short I'll guess I'll keep it up, thanks.

>>7550672
Oretsuba, Tsuyokiss, Grisaia. I also really liked the humor in Comyu, Ayakshibito and Muramasa for some reason but they aren't comedy eroge at all.

I'm not really into neta-humor but people who are would probably think Majikoi is funny too I guess

>>7550672
This might be a bit biased since I just finished it but to all the games they mentioned I'd also add the Eurofront sidestory in Chronicles 02 (It's around 4-5 hours so like a short game).
I'm actually really picky when it comes to comedy but that game had moments that literally made me burst out in laughter, few games managed that.

>>7550819
>but that game had moments that literally made me burst out in laughter
It was Ralerstein, wasn't it?
One day, I'll manage to cap him as he's peeking out from behind the back of whatever her name was.

Finished Rewrite.
Music, graphic and system great but scenario disappointing, only routes that Tonogawa wrote weren't bad.

>>7545049
Is that the same artist for Sumaga?.... Reminds me I still need to read that.

>>7550672
Right off the top of my head I'll say Oretsuba, Akatsuki and Grisaia. Not alot of other people agree but I also found Prism Ark very, very funny.

>>7551329

Basically I would rank them like this:

Oretsuba = Akatsuki = Grisaia
>
Prism Ark
>
Tsuyokiss = Butler = Majikoi
>
Sumaga

>>7551300

Nope, the muchimuchi looks the same but an eroge connoisseur can tell the subtle differences.

So any idea on how to actually run Euphoria in full screen?
I seem to be getting all kinds of errors with this thing.

>>7551377
I bow to your skills, ero-sommelier.

>>7550159

Give it time, there was so many releases this month. The swaneye nukige isn't out yet either.

I keep hearing Gumi from Flyable Heart, as if she wasn't high tension enough there.

This whole scene was great though.

>>7551397
I haven't gotten any problems with it, everything has worked for me without errors. maybe it's your comp. try reinstalling, also did you apply the patch? (altough I doubt its that)

>>7550672
LB!EX

>>7551578
That the letter scene?

>>7551659

That's the one.

>>7551702
That was great.
You've got a bunch of great scenes with Ellen coming up as well.

Goddamn that TDA01 last battle.
And that end. They got me good. Real good.
TDA02 fucking where?

Anyone here play Tasogare no Sinsemilla?
It's been in my backlogged list sitting for some time now.

>>7552128
Yup liked it quite a bit, funny, great characters and so on. Ending was a bit on the weak side but in all I found it really entertaining, also every game should have a flowchart like Sinsemilla.

>Romeo Tanaka writing for Rewrite

I knew this years ago and yet I still haven't gotten it. What's wrong with me?

Who is the canon heroine in Rewrite? Or the True route heroine to be more precise.

OreTsuba R still not out? Feels bad man.

>>7552514
I'm sure Ai is so lonely, waiting for me to capture her.

Holy Moly is Holy Moly so hot.

>>7552585
I liked their Chikan games better. You should check them out if you haven't already.

>>7552585

>>7552608

Wow, so the dark crusader in real life just a fat ossan. What a miscast.

The score for Rewrite on EGS seems to be getting a bit more realistic.

Anyone played Hyper Highspeed Genius?
It's getting decent scores in egs

Finished Chihaya's route, felt like I was reading a shonen manga.
Next Lucia since I'm interested to see what R07 could cook up.

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm14670860
Have we ever got the full version of this song in the Kikokugai remake? Because they are not selling it on iTunes, and I don't think we will get a CD release anytime soon.

And speaking of the music, where the hell is my delicious new FES single?

>>7553420
>they are NOW selling
Hurr, I'm a durr.

>>7552654
It should stabilize around 80.
That would be a good score for it I'd say, it's not a bad game but it's nothing great either, a bit simple I guess.
It's still in the top 10 of the year so far

Lovely x Cation

So, when you clear a route all of your stats increase by 5 points after starting a new game. I just kept on loading save 1, gimping myself in the process, what the fuck. And I'm still missing two items after clearing every route...

R07 and his maid fetish

Playing euphoria right now and my god, I hate this bitch so much. Everything bad that happens to her is well deserved.

>>7553881
She's just a kid. But I do enjoy tormenting her.

finished my first route in euphoria, was more entertaining that I first tough it would be. ending kinda felt sudden, but was fitting. still big questions unanswered but they get answered in true&other route most likely.

>>7553881
Man that's a funny way of putting sauce on meat it's almost like

>>7553900
>>7553900
I have no problem with the fact that she's weak and a sheep, but she has a genuinely rotten personality on top of that. Ugh.

So, is it any good?

I actually like good shounen manga like FMA and Blue Exorcist, will I like Rewrite?

>>7554136
I've heard it gets good in the last two routes or so, and before that for good or worse it's just your average chuuni fighting flick where people call their moves with cool names.

>>7554146
Probably, Rewrite is pretty good all in all.

Kuon no Kizuna should be out today.
Looks really promising.

>>7554146
The fighting is well done with a lot of special effects, there are a lot of battles and the soundtrack is god tier.
So yeah if you play it for the action and powerlevel it should be a blast.

People who want DEEP would probably be disappointed though

>>7554183

So kind of like F/SN, then?

>>7554202
Yes, basically.
The action is faster paced and has less narration though

>>7554183
It's funny that everyone thought the part where the protagonist and the other guy punch each other silly in the trial was an amazing parody of Nasu, and then they get the exact same shit in the full game

>>7554209

Oh god, yes. Time to sign up for another Japanese course.

>>7554212

That doesn't stop it from being a parody, you know?

How do I get to the true ending in euphoria? I already did the fucked up ending but choosing all the "good" options means I just die at the end.

uguu~ it's already about to be the weekend and neither oretsuba and swaneye are out yet

Trying to play an older CD based game, and running into fun times trying to get the CDDA audio to work.
Fun times.

>>7555832
Just had to burn it to a CD, it seems.

>>7555832

Lemme guess, Daiakuji?

>>7555992
Nope. Not a fan of stuff with gameplay.
KimiIta. Was cleaning out my PD download folder, noticed it and decided what the hell, I've got nothing better to do.
I must have queued it up when grabbing KimiNozo Radio episodes or something a while back or something.

Finally starting Clear. It's been on my computer for over a year.

Trying to finish up Grisaia before I start Rewrite, but I feel that I end up disappointed going from a game with such a great common route to one with an apparently less interesting common route. Will still be some time though, I just reached the first choice for Grisaia with zero endings down, so maybe another 30 or so hours to go probably.

So guys, who has the password to download the siscon patch of sukimazakura at the official HP?

Random question, /jp/. I just started playing Koihime recently and the formation relationship chart confused me a little after I struggled a bit with the first battles where the enemy army actually had formations (Bunshuu and Ganryou).

Which end of the arrow is at a disadvantage on this chart? The red end or the blue end?

New thread soon?

>>7556129
I interpreted it as the blue end has the advantage over the read end. Seemed to work.

>>7556027
How is it? I'm in basically the same situation you were in

Screw it.

http://omochikaeri.wordpress.com/2011/07/01/july-2011-eroge-releases/

>>7556308
Wow, July sucks. I think there's one game in there I'm interested in.

>>7556308
I'll probably give djibril, lovebride, and irotoridori a shot.

>>7556308
Irotoridori for me, however I doubt it will be good.

Only the new M&M nukige for me in July, oh well.

Irotoridori, it's everything I liked in Hoshimemo but with better characters and actually interesting plot.

And I never saw so many eroge with ugly art in one month, there was some contest for worst art or what?

Oh shi--

This is cat-on-head retarded. And I love it.

>>7556308
Hey faggot, stop linking to that site. Either that, or you're sucking your own cock. Nobody wants to read the commentary by that fucker writing in green.

>>7557072
>Nobody wants to read the commentary by that fucker writing in green.
This.

>>7555832
Did you try with _inmm.dll?

I don't mind July sucking. I'll just continue reading the goodness that was released in June, still haven't touched Vermillion or Dengeki Strykers.

Don't know about you but July seems more promising than June.
June was pretty average in retrospect.

July has Tenshi no Hane (had a fucking awesome trial), Ikinari Anata ni Koishiteiru (trial was hilarious) and Kuon no Kizuna

Time for a new thread I guess.

New non-troll thread.
