The worst VN is probably something so bad that will never be translated to english. Or maybe it's original language IS english. I'd say that "<3" might be close to being the worst VN ever.

>> No.10361473

F/SN is really, really just fucking garbage. It's far too long shonen bullshit. No, I couldn't sit through the first fight scene. I couldn't give a shit about how Archer was getting magic swords and ducking then stabbing, then about to be stabbed but ducking and stabbing some more. There is nothing there for me. The entire premise just sucks.

The worst thing I read was the English version of Ishika to Honori, but I'm still an English-only peasant for the most part.

It was a surrealistically bad experience.

Genre: Action, fantasy, supernatural.

Shonen refers to demographic which only applies to manga and even that isn't a good reference to the content because it's gleaned from the magazine it's published in.

The adolescent boy demographic doesn't just apply to manga.

>> No.10361739

>>10361694
To what else is it applied? Wikipedia only applies the demographic labels to manga. I haven't heard it applied to anything else, not even anime.

At any rate, the demographic label has does little in describing content to which genres are much better suited.

>> No.10361740

Thats too subjective.

I'd say Katawa shoujo simply because of how it single handedly ruined any new visual novel fans now and for years to come since many first time readers will be tainted by how painfully average it was and thinking that it was the best the medium has to offer because "it is so popular. I call it Apple syndrome.

Many just h-games are pretty bad as well, with retarded stories. Some can be pretty creative and fun though, or have neat mini games.

You can't really define "worst" story wise because what 1 person might hate in a story, someone else might really enjoy, it's all preference.

I was tempted to check out KS, but I decided against it due to the onslaught of "BEST VN EVER" across the shitboards. Fucking ">feel" shit everywhere and I was already tired of the spam and drama during its production.

I'm not even into VNs all that much, but seeing this level of ignorance is a little disheartening. I can only wonder how VN enthusiasts feel when such people encroach upon their hobbies like this.

>> No.10361779

>>10361762
People that can read japanese probably don't give a single shit about "peasants" enjoying things such as KS. In fact, if I could read japanese (I'm studying very hard everyday so in a few months I suppose I'll be able too) I'd probably laugh at them for thinking that KS is the best VN ever.

>> No.10361798

If KS was a Japanese game you'd just accept it as another run-of-the-mill sort-of-enjoyable game with passable art and music that was mildly entertaining but forgettable. A solid 6/10.
Instead you faggots treat it like trash because of all the circumstances surrounding the game. I get that those do matter, but they don't alter the content of the game any more than if r07 turned out to be a neo-Nazi. Worst visual novel ever? Are you fucking serious?

>> No.10361827

If it were a Japanese game, it wouldn't have nearly as many people "feeling" all over the game.

>> No.10361839

>>10361762
I don't care much. What gives my soul cancer is that these people, these KSfags, don't seem to want to move on. The entire point of introducing yourself to a new medium or a new genre or a new thing is that you go out and explore it, not instantly dub the first thing you encounter as the best thing you've ever experienced regarding that particular topic and never bother to look deeper.

And for a glorified gimmick, no less.

>>10361839
You probably wouldn't like that anyway. Those kinds of people are the last thing I'd want near my hobbies. Their behavior alone is enough to suggest that they only care about circlejerking "feels" rather than actually reading anything. They're fucking tourists.

Why does /jp/ always allow the fanbase of something to ruin there view on it?

>>10361839
>>10361847
Most people have moved on. There's probably a maximum of 30 people on there now at any given time. you shouldn't really count them as the fanbase of the game

I have to pretend to hate a country I actually quite like because apparently liking that country is fashionable among people /jp/ doesn't like, therefore /jp/ doesn't like me.

I'm in a pickle here, guys.

No one really cares if you like Japan as long as you don't speak in broken Japanese or think the country has no faults.
Sure, you'll get called a weeaboo on /jp/ but insults don't mean anything on 4chan.
