seriously the other sex tasks beforehand were way more hardcore than 1 (one) little cut and daichi knows this, he keeps trying to do T1 but seiji shuts it down lightning fast everytime its comedy. it's so obvious glasses whore loves being fucked by daichad but hides it under the pretense of selflessness. so perverse, seiji is so gross and slutty, corrupting my pure innocent daichi like this.

Teh floating hand xp

I'm a little bothered that a lot of these scenes are drawn as if it were a normal eroge, where the man (daichi in this case) is completely obscured to allow maximum self insertion.

Not completely done, but I liked it more than I thought I would and while the relationship is not really romantic, there's no way either of them is straight and at least Daichi seemed actually kinda into Seiji from the start, just very in denial.

It's really short though, and obviously I don't want to belittle the translator's effort, but I have no idea why this took 3 years to finish. Luckydog1 is probably going to take even longer and I don't really see the point in requesting anything from them when they're going to take so long for each title. Poor EOPs.

The content itself varies between "hard no" and "kinda sexy" for me, but it's presented well.

What I like about it is that it doesn't shy away from showing everything somewhat realistically. The art is good and it's not over-the-top. Lots of CGs for each "task" scene as well, with variations. I went in expecting a porn-tier scenario and wasn't disappointed on that front. Also, I think it helps to set that expectation low to start for maximum potential enjoyment. If it had more fetishes I liked I'd be more enthusiastic about recommending it.

Yeah this. Twitter recommends artists based on who you follow or looked at so if you already follow someone who prefers guy A as the bottom you'll just get more of that.

That line of thinking kinda makes no sense to me though. Isn't it mostly because deep down they want to "straighten" the pair so they make the bottom just act as feminine as possible? Those types of people are the ones that love to do a lot of one-sided genderbends (the bottom is always genderbent into a girl).
Not everything is about self-inserting. I've seen this thrown around so much I just wonder how do you come to that conclusion, maybe I just haven't seen enough of "those" kind of fujos I guess.

B: The uke allowed young girls to have a degree of separation between themselves and sexual acts.

The whole point is they have conflicting feelings. They enjoy it but it feels wrong because they're best friends. It's not just the gay part alone although that's part of it. In fact Daichi seems more bothered by the fact that he's doing this to his best friend he's known forever rather than it being about being gay, but you can't expect retards to actually read.

It seems weird to me everyone always points at parade's games for having characters who are reluctant to have gay sex when there are dozens of other games where the MC outright hates the sex, and constantly states he wants it to be over.

For most of the more recent games I've played this hasn't been the case. Only games from like the past 10 years (of those that I've played) I can think of with that problem are Galtia, Pigeon Blood and Paradise, though in the latter two MC comes to like sex pretty quickly when it's not rape. Galtia is the kind with the worst sort of sex scenes where even when it's supposed to be consensual MC hates it and is a total dead fish.

Because both of the characters participate in the sexual act and don't act like that shit will murder them. Even when one is being raped he gives in and enjoys having a dick inside at least for a second.

I only played Hiroyuki's route and he wasn't like that. So the main complaint with the other guys is that they're too passive and not vocal enough? Because I'm looking at the CGs and all the guys are hard and cum in every scene, and it seems like most of them have foreplay scenes instead of the guys just "being used like an onahole." The way people talked about it I thought they genuinely hated it. But it seems like it's the typical acting shy/coy.

Though some routes really don't play much like romance, particularly the third. The fourth one is also the one that makes really obvious how much Minakami is put over the other boys with the main character confessing to him in another person route.

The structure is the biggest flaw in the game I think. It really hurt Hakase and Hanazawa's routes by forcing them to be so short. The final route is what it is regardless and I actually liked it because it made me so goddamn upset and confused. All those references to Dogra Magra weren't for nothing.

It's obvious that Minakami is THE person for Tamamori, and the other routes are "what-if" scenarios had Tamamori done something differently at key points. But they are still OK in their own rights, and Tamamori is definitely happy enough with Kawase and Hakase in the end even though they never break his tsun attitude.

I agree that Minakami's route being first is what makes it great. You can tell the story was written to make it as excellent as possible, and it's my favourite BL game for doing so.

I think that Hakase and Hanazawa's routes would have been better if the author had had the time to write the proper length instead of having to assume that the reader was starting the story from the beginning each time. They just didn't have enough time to tell the character-specific stories convincingly after splitting from the main route.

Anon is baiting for (You)s. Obviously everyone has different opinions. I mean from the way people in /blog/ talk about Parade's works you'd think they are all dreary and boring porn games with no merit unless you're into the fetishes they include. But my experience is that they are high-effort porn games written for men instead of women so it's only natural that the sentiment here is somewhat negative.

They're not works of art but I appreciate them for being lightyears ahead in terms of technical competence compared to the likes of N+C. Even if it's not quite my thing they are well done and high quality compared to what BL usually offers.

Unlike usual female oriented bl games, you can feel that the game is made by men for other men. The characters are manly and realistic; and there's also a lot of options which female players hate, such as being plot oriented, well-written stories, men acting like men and realistic bodies.

Either they're moe and pure-hearted to the point where other characters, no matter how vile they are, can't help but be brought to tears by their kindness (see: Alyosha, Prince Myshkin) or they're chronically ill, alienated from society, and extremely neurotic (Raskolnikov, Underground Man, not really Ivan but he does have a mental breakdown later on). There's also another type of man that Dostoevsky writes, which is the man driven purely by his earthly passions (Rogozhin, Svidrigailov). I remember one scene where Svidrigailov blackmails and traps Dunya in his uguu room of love just so that he could beg her to love him, killing himself later when she tells him to fuck off. Then there's all the shit Rogozhin pulls in The Idiot with Nastasya. I think the common factor between all of these is that they are all extremely vulnerable and passionate in one way or another, and I like seeing that destroy or save them.

>>25340580
>The main boy (Ao) of Shinigami to Shoujo is based off of Prince Myshkin from The Idiot
I already had Shinigami to Shoujo on my to-play list but this shoots it up exponentially. Myshkin is one of my favorite Dostoevsky boys so far. You should give one of Dostoevsky's short stories a try, anon, they're much easier to read than any post-modernist shit that /lit/ might forcibly recommend you. I was shocked by how popular Dostoevsky was with Japanese fan-artists, specifically female ones, at first but when you read his stories you realize that the guy can write some really memorable and cute boys.

Though I don't think Ao actually acts all that much like Prince Myshkin from what I've heard, Ao is just an autist (probably literally or at least that the impression I got when you hear his past) who doesn't get social cues, he's kind of cold and not that purehearted or nice or anything.

That sounds nice, actually. My extent of Dostoevsky reading was about half of the Karamazov Bros, but I remember liking Alyosha.

That's actually a bit like Myshkin, who has a weird obsession with executions and completely baffles the people around him. He comes off as a charming autist with his disregard of social cues and his long tangents on specific topics, which leads to the other characters into thinking that he's an idiot. I'm guessing the author focused more on these aspects of Myshkin being an autist who seemingly doesn't understand social norms rather than his childish innocence and goodwill, which is also fine by me. I love autists of all kinds.

Unfortunately, I'm actually not as well versed in /blog/ related media as I'd like to be, so I really can't think of many examples off the top of my head. To be honest, I was under the impression that boys (or any character really) that were extremely vulnerable or weak in some respect weren't popular with audiences and were rare in most works. I found Zaijyouin from 魔女の処刑日 to have a good combination of both unpleasant personality traits and emotional vulnerability, especially when he gets bullied by his coworkers or when the protagonist tells him that she hates him. He somehow both looks down on the protagonist while also being almost completely dependent on her. As for characters that aren't actually /blog/, I remember liking Adachi from Persona 4 when I was a lot younger for being spiteful but pathetic.

Anon, your taste is really, really good. I still have a bit of a soft spot for Adachi myself, though I can't ever seem to get other people to understand why. Usually I'd phrase my tastes like "I like characters that are pretty on the outside and ugly on the inside, it's the gap that's good" but Adachi was pretty plain looking and I think that actually added to the effect. I liked Akechi's patheticness in vanilla 5 (have not yet finished Royal) but it really felt like he was manufactured to be liked anyway, so he isn't anywhere near as good. The only reason he still has so many points with me is because of his seiyuu. Can't tell if you were one of the people in the previous thread talking about BWS, but the only pathetic /blog/ boy I can think of off the top of my head is Julian. A non-/blog/ boy I like that fits this criteria is Carlos from ZTD. I suddenly feel like I've never played a single game, VN or otherwise, in my entire life.

I think one of the big problems with otome games in this regard is that we might have pathetic characters but they're not vulnerable in the sense that we want, or have vulnerable characters that aren't the kind of pathetic we want. We can't have both, and I imagine that it's because a combination of two already undesirable traits would be unpopular, especially with the audience that these games market to, as you said. The otomegokoro wishes for the ideal strong and dependable man, at least according to the major otome companies. I do not have this otomegokoro, anyway. I'm admittedly not well versed in /blog/ stuff either because I'm very, very picky.

I'm interested in playing the game you've mentioned, also. I'll report back if I get around to it.

I just erased my entire post because of a typo and didn't copy it and I will not rewrite it, but the main points were that Adachi is good and peak pathetic, and this is heightened by the fact that he is very average looking. Akechi in 5 is plenty pathetic, but he's manufactured to be likable anyway and is therefore worse. The only reason he still has high points with me is because of his seiyuu. I don't know if you were in last thread's BWS discussion, but the only related /blog/ boy I can think of off the top of my head is Julian. A non-/blog/ boy I like is Eric from ZTD, with massive bonus points for Ishida. I'm having trouble thinking of anyone else, I suddenly feel like I've never played any video games in my life. A lot of my pathetic boys come from books I've read.

Re absence of pathetic boys, the serious lack of this type of character is due to the fact that two already undesirable traits would be met with great dislike, if not outright hostility. We can have one or the other, but never both because of the typical otomegokoro (according to the major otome companies). I do not have this otomegokoro, so the odds are already stacked against me. I am admittedly not well versed in /blog/ games either because I'm extremely picky.

Thanks for the rec, anon. The MC of this game looks pretty entertaining as well. Pathetic boys are too moe for their own good.

>>25346481
I haven't played through Persona 5 yet, but Akechi seemed like a lesser Adachi to me. The appeal of Adachi was him working a job he despised, him constantly acting frugal and meek, and his general manchild tendencies. When you have a character like Akechi, who is a charismatic teenage prodigy detective, I think you lose much of the bitter loser at a dead-end job charm that Adachi had. Also, funny that you mention ZTD, I was planning to play it after finishing AI and getting the urge to finally finish going through every Zero Escape game but I think even ZTD looked too much like a clusterfuck for me. What made me want to play it the most though were the characters, specifically Eric as you mentioned. He looked like my type (slight manchild tendencies, awkward-looking faces and gestures, etc). I haven't gone through BWS but it does look promising; I'm a bit of picky storyfag so hopefully the plot isn't as much of a disappointment as it was described last thread.

You make a good point: pathetic characters are obviously pathetic, so it's easy to look down on them, turn them into joke characters, or just be plain disgusted by them. And, when you combine patheticness with an unpleasant personality, I guess it's too much for most people to be able to actually "like" the character. Still though, I think there could be a mass-market appeal for these types of ugly and pathetic characters considering how many people love characters like Komaeda.

I'm interested in hearing your thoughts about it, anon. Like I said, I'm not too well versed in otome games, but this is probably one of the more unorthodox VNs I've played through, otome or otherwise. The ending with the main boy, Zaijyouin (picture related), is pretty conclusive, but as one reviewer says: no matter which ending you read, it leaves a slightly bad aftertaste, which is a compliment considering that it's an utsuge.

Lapis is sort of inconsistent and better in some routes than others, and I can't recommend the whole game in good conscience, but I really liked her dynamic with Ruu and the whole last route. The whole thing stank of "canon" route but I thought it was nice they didn't hold back and make him a super safe and generic character like most main boys, and it avoids the usual issue of him losing screentime to the plot by having the plot be directly related to and very dependent on his unhinged ass. Less goofy action setpieces and more long dramatic mental breakdowns, which I was a big fan of.
The game also gets extra points for featuring a literal autistic retard route. Now that's what I call brave.

I too love to play detective BL porn games where you must look for the clues that will lead you to the conclusion of the character enjoying the sex

Which bl even have good romance? Apart from Hashihime, Mebiusline, and Shingakkou since those seem to be /blog's favorite titles.

>>25349844
I don't think the issue is that the guys don't enjoy the gay sex, it's that Parade's games lack romance. But RN9 felt a bit more emotionally intimate in comparison to NTY, so maybe (hopefully) Lkyt is a bigger shift from NTY.

The moment after seiji fails at killing and daichi promises in his heart he'll be there with him no matter how low they'll fall was as close as it got. It's noted in their character descriptions and shown ingame how stubborn men they could be; they couldn't even verbally confirm to the other that they're their bff it was too embarrassing. A whole love confession is too weird and painful and gay and having sex is easier than admitting homoromanticism for someone you wanted to just preserve a platonic love with.

ZTD's no 999 of course, but its characters were interesting, so definitely give it a go. Eric is great, and the game's not that long anyway. And regarding Komaeda, I think he was riding some kind of Ryou/Kaworu-ish wave and adding a twist. Like, he's still good looking in canon, and while he's creepy and eccentric, his vaguely threatening aura stops him from seeming pathetic and really having him fit into our category. But it's been a while since I've played SDR2, and I'm not really sure I have the time or desire to replay. I think his popularity can also be attributed to the homolust, same with the other two, which wouldn't run over well in a game aimed at female readers aside from in those Prince of Tennis games on the PS2. But, on the subject of DR, while I did like Komaeda a lot back in the day, I liked Souda too. He was bending over backwards for a single crumb, he was a coward, generally unlikeable, and also kind of gross, but there was still something that had me liking him, and it was probably the fact that he's voiced by Hosoya, the same guy that voiced BWS's Julian. But we should get back to the /blog/ topic.

I did some more thinking, and I came to the realization that Hakase from Hashihime is of a similar flavor. He actually ticks all of my boxes, even though he's played for jokes a lot of the time. He's a complete degenerate but very pure in his actions and thoughts, vulnerable and a bit unstable, a nice chuuni/autist mix, stalker-ish, and thinks he's doing something great but isn't. On top of all that, he always lets Tamamori berate him and take advantage of him. It's moe. Hakase's route was kind of stupid, but he was my favorite boy overall.

There's a weird metaphor I use for my favorite characters of this type, and it's that they make my soul hit the ground and sink through the cracks. It's a great feeling, but it's so rare. Hakase was kind of there.

Yeah I agree, it would've be nice if there was more romance but it also would have been a bit out of place considering the setting and all. I mean, Daichi even thinks multiple times he would marry Seiji, I don't think he has any problems being romantically involved with Seiji. But is extremely afraid of freaking out Seiji. It's very common in male friendships to never be too open no matter how close you are, but there's always that sort of silent confirmation you'll always be there for each other. Seiji fits that to a tee, and it's not a shock he was dumped multiple times for how poorly he communicates in romantic relationships. I know people hate it but I found it interesting and surprisingly realistic. It would be pretty close to how real best friends would act.

That's because, unlike somebody like Yamada, he's not actually ugly. Pathetic, but not bad looking and still somewhat of a bishounen. That's the key to success with those types of characters.

They usually make a big point of the male lead accepting the trap for who he is in and out of feminine clothing (but for the sake of story he still wears feminine clothing). The only one that kind of felt like BL the longer it went on is that ero doujin series where the trap eventually starts dating a dude and stops prostituting himself

Yeah from the games I've played, can't speak for everything of course, there'll be a relatively even distribution of blowjob scenes. Only game that comes to mind where that's obivously not the case is probably Mebiusline, Kyoichiro just loves sucking cocks I guess.

>pathetic characters are obviously pathetic, so it's easy to look down on them, turn them into joke characters, or just be plain disgusted by them. And, when you combine patheticness with an unpleasant personality, I guess it's too much for most people to be able to actually "like" the character.

Surprisingly the character who most comes to mind for me when I hear this criteria you two are talking about is Shinji Matou from the Fate Stay Night series. Like it's an eroge series primarily targeted at men, but even then there are traditionally hot men for fangirls to lust over (Gilgamesh, Cu, Emiya). Yet Shinji has this dedicated cult niche fanbase that is head over heels for him. He ticks all the designated 'character you are supposed to hate' boxes: prideful, superiority complex, playboy, heroine rapist, etc. Occasionally, like in the fandisc or the new scenes added to the Heaven's Feel movies, they add some new content that humanizes him a bit more and shows more of his relationship to the main character before the plot stuff goes down. Similar to how SHIKI from Tsukihime was still given some cool scenes, despite also being a heroine rapist and murderer. This character is primarily made to move the plot along and make people really angry, and yet there's still a pretty hidden collection of scraps that some dedicated fans have furiously produced content for. Well, the creator has a soft spot for him too. Just the character that comes to mind for me for a large collection of reprehensible traits but there is still a moe factor. But a lot of fanbases will eviscerate you for daring to like misogynistic, fucked up characters, despite them being fictional.

Forgot to remove the pic, but anyway, did you guys know that QR released a bl game by the same writer as Shingakkou, in which you could also choose who tops and who bottoms. But in Bara no Ki you can play matchmaker and have any combination of the guys fuck, I think. I'm very curious about this game.

It's not just pearl clutchers who would side eye you for liking shinji though, pretty much anybody would. He gets silly jokes in spinoffs and such but not many people seriously expect anyone to husbando a character like him, especially for someone of his screentime and role in game. Adachi or Komaeda are understandable because they have a huge presence, but liking Shinji is kinda of like liking Goon#1.

I played the PSP version due to my needing to run around a lot. I don't have any particular attachment to porn, I came for the story and the experience and I remember some of the raunchy scenes just being blackscreened anyway. I believe the UI is jank no matter what, though.
