Haven't been able to get into an eroge for years. I was reading gatenkei as the last thing and felt like I would end up fucking someone's wife if I kept reading. So I stopped reading in order not to install that firmware in my brain.

What game should I try going for if I want to install the firmware necessary to pick up a single girl and live a fulfilling, loving harmonious life together?

Or should I embrace the NTR魂？

Is there a "VN minimum" amount of titles one has to read to be considered a VN player? Like on image boards in my country there is an anime minimum of 250 TV + 250 OVA if you want to be considered an anime fan.

I think you could be confidently called a VN player if you have over 100 titles under your belt. I have many normie friends who watched more than 100 anime but it's not the same with this medium. I doubt even tourists would read more than 25 titles.

>250 OVA
Are there even any worthwhile OVAs that are NOT H, from the 20th century, or part of a series that had TV entries?
Anyway, in my opinion if you don't know Japanese (or at least haven't started learning it) you aren't a real anime fan and are just a poser (the worst kind are the ones that start to make youtube videos about anime when they essentially consume watered down parodies).

I liked Makoto's route and Chapter 1 but the rest of the game was scaji doubling down on the worst aspects of his writing. Definitely a downgrade from sakuuta.

So what's the meaning of Sakuuta when compared to his previous work? I heard he changed his views like Wittgenstein.

[Anonymous No.]

>>46577951
In the modern world, what we need to keep the eroge industry alive is a more inclusive society who does not discriminate based on philosophical preference. To truly appreciate Scadi, you need to understand the background behind the current state of the scene when it was released. As you might or might know, the eroge scene has been on a slow decline since around 2000's with the number of kamige's decreasing per year past 2000. The old giants supporting the industry were slowly leaving the scene one by one. While the number of scenario games was slowly decreasing, the number of nukiges was actually increasing. This is where we start in Subahibi as well with the whole concept of a philosophical story. Now comes, Scadi, with a love letter to the eroge creators and eroge fans to keep supporting the industry. That the scenario-based eroge industry offers something wonderful that no other medium can copy, so we should not let the industry die. The name of that love letter is Subahibi and later on Sakuuta. After the release of Subahibi, we start seeing signs of revitalization of the industry with a lot of creators putting more effort into releasing their games. After 14 years now, we can definitely feel the effects of Sca-ji on the industry as the number of kamige's getting released is getting close to what it was in its peak. It's still far from a complete revival though as we need more new blood in the scene.

The first game showed us how enforcing truth for people is the same as creating a living hell for others. The sequel, Sakuuta, shows us the point of view of the objectivists, the antagonists in the first game, and how they ended up in their positions. It shows different people’s view on philosophy through different characters, and how that caused discrimination and conflict among them. That conflict could easily have been avoided through tolerance of the other person’s views. Similar to its prequel, Sakuuta is a story of tolerance of the minority, and tolerance on other people’s personal truths. People just need to be allowed to search for their own truth that they can understand without fearing for their safety. That is all that is needed to give the minority a place to belong to.

I wouldn't be too bummed if she didn't get a route. She's good as a side character, but never really saw her as a heroine. Honestly the only student character that I want to see h-scenes of is Sakurako. The fact that Rin barely gets screen time in Toki was my main source of grief. One of my worries coming into Toki was that she would get sidelined because Scaji did not agree with her, which was the impression I got at the end of sakuuta. So sakutoki really disappointed me there

In Sakuuta, Rin is meant to act as a foil to Naoya. Rin believes that art has objective beauty in and of itself, but Naoya believes it's subjective and it's people that give it meaning. Obviously you can tell which one scaji agrees with, which is why Naoya's belief is what the game ends on.

I can already taste the cringe. What's his problem, why does he keep making art when he thinks it has no meaning? Subjective meaning is self-refuting and the same as saying it has no meaning.

First I thought he would be annoying then I liked him. It's nice to see an industry guy that didn't sell out like the Asia Empire tiktokker.

I think Hanai was just lamenting that he thought too much about it, trying to justify his music instead of just creating what he was meant to. He got crushed between the extremes of pure objectivity and pure subjectivity.

Yeah thats why I find Hanai relatable. It's why I have a hard time with the Sakuuta/toki "just feel it" philosophy. Scaji seems to be of the belief that the only thing important is whether or not you are personally moved by it, which I think, is also where Musicus ends up, but I want there to be something more. Otherwise I'm unsure whether or not I like it or if I'm convincing myself to like it, which was Hanai's problem.

>>46578532
I don't think it's where Musicus ends up because they find the meaning in being able to transmit the joy they feel from music to others. It's connected to the real world even though it has your individual mark. It's not just an individual exercise in creating the perfect piece in abstraction (Kei in Sumi route/Hanai) or creating a piece purely to manipulate emotions while not feeling it yourself (sellout music industry).

Something not very popular or well-liked, or something you just do out of your free time as a hobby. And even if you do have an audience, there are some things where the intention of the work is massively distorted and misinterpreted. By audience I did mean people outside of the creator, which is the main thing these ge focus on. Sakutoki even has this massive shounen art tournament. There is a magic painting that makes people orgasm immediately when they see it. Obviously that's an exaggeration, but a lot of the meaning of the art is from whether the audience 感動 to it.

I don't think it says those things don't have meaning, look at Kachou Fuugetsu itself which was not that popular in the grand scheme of things. Or the paintings of Yako's dad that had an audience consisting only of his family but inspired her so much. Or the Night Schoolers which was just a hobby band. The only negative unpopular thing was Kei's self-centred music in the bad route.

[Anonymous No.]

>>46578852
OH GOD THAT SCENE
What I like most about her as a character is that at a certain point everyone recognizes her strength. Like, she had to face the disease from a very young age, but she still did everything she could to get through it. At that moment I started to reflect on my life, and on the many times that I complicate my existence for such minimal things, but then there are people like her fighting and trying to enjoy life with all their will. Yeah, yeah, this may fall a bit into inspirational porn, but in a sense setoguchi really succeeded (in my opinion), in making it clear that despite the complexities they are living, they are still normal people with their own dreams and dilemmas
I really like the approach setoguchi has taken since musicus with his stories. I just can't imagine what he will surprise us with after hirahira and bst

With this discussion you made me look for my hirahira screenshots on my HDDs, because I didn't remember which one they were on (877 screenshots by the way)
I had forgotten to mention it, but I think it is necessary to highlight the enormous importance that souichi had as an emotional support for asa. In that moment pic related for example, is precisely the turning point in which you can notice the enormous love he feels for her. Asa is an extremely strong girl, yes, but her strength comes precisely from the huge love and support she received right at that moment when she was about to break. Hirahira is soooo different from something I would have expected from that kind of setting initially. It's bad? not at all. It's the best possible outcome, because despite witnessing a lot of extremely heartbreaking and depressing stories, you can still feel that there is humanity and hope throughout

Total count is a bad metric. You can download 50 mini VNs from novelgame.jp and finish them all in a weekend.
As long as a person reads well (both in the sense that they read quality titles, and that they read them with care) I think they can have insightful opinions about the medium even without having finished many VNs.
If I was to write a basic checklist for a "real VN reader", it would look something like this:
>Can read in Japanese with no outside help (comfortably or with effort)
>Reads a mixture of classics and lesser-known titles
>Avoids inferior versions (censored re-releases, sloppy remakes, translations, etc.)
>Doesn't skim or skip unread text
>By default, reads all routes
>Has fallen in love with a heroine
As long as all of that applies to you, I think you deserve to call yourself a VN reader no matter your clear count.

That's what I meant by "by default".
You start VNs intending to read all of the routes. As you progress you may decide against it. But your goal is to experience the whole story, and you will unless you have good reason not to.
Essentially, you aren't a person who always reads just one route, considers themselves to have "finished" the VN, and never reads more.

>>46580893
There's no shame in that. In my book you're miles ahead of anyone who just pretends be in love with a heroine to fit in.
That being said, I don't think one can truly understand the full beauty of visual novels without falling for a heroine.
Meeting her, the magical unforgettable moments that make her dear to you, realizing that you're truly in love with her, confessing your feelings through your avatar, hearing her tell you she loves you too in her own voice, the whirlwind of romance, the final bittersweet farewell as you reach the end of her route, and rereading it over and over again just to be with her once more... it's the most wonderful experience you can have with a VN. Nothing compares.
I wish you the best of luck. Love lies in the last place you look; I'm sure your heroine is just around the corner, heart fluttering to finally meet you.

I read it. It's fine and Mitsuo carries it on his back like he did the main game.
The main problem is that it's just so short - the after stories for all the non-main heroines are just a couple h-scenes, the 'routes' for the bro characters and their girls are also very short and mostly just h-scenes. The only thing there with substance is the jirai-kei's after and while it has good stuff it still does everything way too fast for what it's trying to accomplish.
Basically I know they said right in the title it's a mini-FD, and all my problems come down to it being very much mini. Make it twice as long and it would've been great.

>>46586119
In the modern world, what we need to keep the eroge industry alive is a more inclusive society who does not discriminate based on sexual preference. To truly appreciate Nukitashi, you need to understand the background behind the current state of the scene when it was released. As you might or might know, the eroge scene has been on a slow decline since around 2010's with the number of kamige's decreasing per year past 2010. The old giants supporting the industry were slowly leaving the scene one by one. While the number of scenario games was slowly decreasing, the number of nukiges was actually increasing. This is where we start in Nukitashi as well with the whole concept of a Nukige-like island. Now comes, Qruppo, with a love letter to the eroge creators and eroge fans to keep supporting the industry. That the scenario-based eroge industry offers something wonderful that no other medium can copy, so we should not let the industry die. The name of that love letter is Nukitashi and later on Hentai Prison. After the release of Nukitashi, we start seeing signs of revitalization of the industry with a lot of creators putting more effort into releasing their games. After five years now, we can definitely feel the effects of Qruppo on the industry as the number of kamige's getting released is getting close to what it was in its peak. It's still far from a complete revival though as we need more new blood in the scene.

The first game showed us how creating a paradise for people is the same as creating a living hell for others. The sequel, Nukitashi 2, shows us the point of view of the SS members, the antagonists in the first game, and how they ended up in their positions. It shows different people’s view on sex through different characters, and how that caused discrimination and conflict among them. That conflict could easily have been avoided through tolerance of the other person’s views. Similar to its prequel, Nukitashi 2 is a story of tolerance of the minority, and tolerance on other people’s sexual fetish. People just need to be allowed to search for someone else who can understand them without fearing for their safety. That is all that is needed to give the minority a place to belong to.

I've played Continuum Shift.
The main visual novel part bored me to tears; I didn't get very far.
The fighting game part is robustly unwelcoming to newcomers. I bought the game in 2016 as one of my first fighting games. I finally beat it for the first time last year.
Every mode of the game is unreasonably difficult and unintuitive. If you don't already have a lot of fighting game experience, don't expect to be able to clear the tutorial.
Challenge aside, it's just mediocre overall. It looks cheap and feels cheap. There are lots of original and creative ideas, but nothing that adds up to a game I'd want to spend time with.
The best part of the game IMO is the episodic comedy/slice of life side visual novel. I found it to be well written and rather enjoyed it. You can't just read that part though, you have to do other stuff to unlock it.
The characters and character designs are also beyond reproach. I really like Makoto, she's super duper cute.

If you're interested, I'd recommend checking out the Guilty Gear series instead, which is by the same company and also has a significant visual novel mode, but better written and attached to an easier, less obtuse, more fun fighting game.

Works on my win11 machine. Here were my steps:

I assume you know how to extract rar files
>mount TRI_VCR.ISO
I assume you know how to mount ISO files
>copy the game files to a folder

>keep the disc mounted, don't unmount it
>open vampirecrusaders_noregion 免日文区域补丁.rar
>go into vampirecrusaders_noregion folder
>copy VCR-Setup.exe-No-Region-v1.EXE to the installation files folder, the directory with Setup.exe
>run VCR-Setup.exe-No-Region-v1.EXE
>click OK on the popup window

>*optional* click right below "install/change" button to change installation folder

>open vampirecrusaders_noregion 免日文区域补丁.rar again
>go into vampirecrusaders_noregion folder
>copy VCR.exe-Noregionv1.EXE to the folder where you installed the game
>run VCR.exe-Noregionv1.EXE
>click OK on the popup window

Honestly you can probably do the previous steps on your own, but you did ask to instruct you like a retard.
Anyways, from here, the provided patches didn't work for me. I assume this was also where you hit the snag.
The Alpharom signup should've run though, so I took the crack from other games
pixeldrain com/u/XPivQJN2
Your Defender might tell you it's unsafe. It's a crack and you're a pirate, you should be familiar with this message by now.

Now this was where something weird happened. I did manage to get the game running with new crack. But when I tried reinstalling the game to verify and note down the steps, the game ran fine without me applying the patch. So, I'm writing this part from memory.
>extract the two files in Cracker.rar to your game installation folder
>run Cracker.exe
>drag and drop EXECLE.EXE onto the new window
>click Yes on the popup window
>click Ok on the next popup window

You should be able to start the game now by running EXECLE.EXE, with the disc mounted. Can't run it unmounted.
Also unskippable disclaimer kek. And a window restart message after uninstalling the game. Had to write this post twice.

The game is great, it's the best anime fighting game in the market, it's difficult, with ton of universal mechanics while all the characters also have their own gimmicks, still a very much alive game thanks to rollback, they hired a lot of well known VA and some actually worked on eroge too, it's all-ages and the story is akin to trying to explain a fever dream.
Not sure if it's worth for the story alone, unless you really like Ragna the mc.
Oh yeah the music is also amazing, i downloaded like half of the tracks because it was that good.

Why is there almost no fantasy vn where you actually go on a adventure around the world a la lord of the ring instead of staying in the same city for the entire game?

ive seen worse otaku bashing memes come from yuzusoft fan accounts, this was pretty tame. say what you will about yuzusoft fans but at least they know how to take a joke.

well it also depends on the way you present it too
the fact that he instantly went crying into the pillow and locked the account when he got criticism says a lot about his sense of humor

Do you guys play console ports? I mean, most VNs are made for PC however it does seems that during the golden era of VNs most of the popular ones got very nice ports (especially on PS2), so i wonder which is the truest "version"

>read vn
>then console port additional content
It's what I did, some exceptions like ayakashibito that I just went with the port which anons recommended and thank god they did.

What's so much better about the ayakashibito port?

After actually doing both, the absolute lack of sex scenes IS a plus, absolute worst timing for random sex scenes I've ever seen.
Also Hounan's route in the port is great, but that's additional content.

I'm a devout Christian so I do appreciate console ports removing lustful content. I mostly read VNs on my PS Vita and Nintendo Switch, which even have the added benefit of portability.
