Finished Himeo's route in Damekoi. Much more enjoyable than Kaya's bitchiness and especially the ending was extremely heartwarming. I really liked the "twist" of how Himeo's father was also trying to just save Mitoko. The Christmas phone call almost had me in tears.

>Have any of you ever bought actual eroge merchandise?
I have a really bad habit of doing impulse purchases at my hometown's local yearly con. So far ended up with Daiteikoku and Daitoshokan tapestries and this year I bought Ayano (from Tototo) dakimakura cover plus some other shit even though those games are still in my backlog, or dropped in case of Daiteikoku. After experiencing once how much postal, taxes and handling services cost in my country I've been reluctant to order my favorite eroge merch online and thus have settled for secondary interest stuff.

Worst case, wait for the fandisc. Mare had a nice route in that.

I don't think she'll get shafted, though. If anything she'll end up like Yume with a short "true" route, but there's no sign of a hidden mystery heroine so far, so she's probably it.

Wins by quite a margin in linecount and since she has only one H-scene compared to her closest competitor by 1000 lines, Komomo who had like 2-3, she has the most read time, probably to make up for the fact she isn't in the main game, or the op beyond less than one second.

I'm guessing that Yuzu will get focus at some point if Marimo goes bananas like Shiina did in the trial but nothing more, at least in the main game. AstralAir will likely sell well enough to justify a fandisk, and then maybe she will get her chance.

That's one reason why I am interested in it too. Chata has a fantastic voice, and nice opening songs are an excellent way to grab my attention. This has backfired more times than I wish it did, though.

The other reason is that I've recently realized that I really like Chikotam's art. Has a severe case of sameface and the lead heroine brings to mind a certain heroine from a recent ALcot title, but you know, don't fix what isn't broken.

Started the trial a while ago. Haven't got far enough to make any real judgement, but Konomi seems to be tripping yandere flags all over the place.

The 2nd has after stories to the routes in the 1st, so if you wanted to see more of what happens after then give them a read.

I only bothered reading Makina's though, since her Kajitsu ending was fairly unsatisfying, so I can't really say how good the others are. The main route which has Yuuji's past is the main thing to read Meikyuu for.

Because we don't discuss translations here. We don't even care about them or know anything about current state or whether and what kind of patches exist. There's thread dedicated to VN translations right at this very same board, why would you ask here instead there is a mystery for me.

Are there any VNs that aren't pretentious, meaning no dumb sob stories, that are also not an overload of moe or cuteness or happiness? Something that's also not edgy and dumb, too.

LovelyxCation 2 had pretty nice art. It's not too different or unique, but it's done very well and the girls all look fantastic. The artist (Iizuki Tasuku) also worked on LxC1 and both tone work's games, the second (Hoshiori) being released tomorrow.

Favorite's games have Shida Kazuhiro, who does some very colorful artwork. Some people find it a bit too saturated and bright, though. AstralAir is coming out tomorrow, if you want to check it out.

Good characters with a bad story makes you feel like it was a waste of a cast, but it's probably worthr reading for the cast.
A good story with bad characters I find it hard to read because if I can't really give a shit about the cast the story just loses its effectiveness.

I liked it for the yuri and character interactions, but it was ridiculously uneven when it came to the 'mysteries'. One chapter had the MC find out someone's name, and there was emphasis on a particular novel throughout. Instead of it being the name of the novel's MC, it was a bullshit name practically thought up on the spot. It was difficult to follow the MC's reasoning as well, but yeah, most of the mysteries were of the same standard with the same puzzling logic. Absolutely terrible stuff in that aspect.

There was no real plot to speak of. Mostly a kyarage, and the main mystery about the girls disappearing isn't really a big issue either. If you're willing to overlook how bad the mysteries are you might like it. It reminded me more of Aoi Hana than Marimite, honestly.

Quite a bit.

Suou eases into herself more and for a while things are nice; the closest to Marimite FLOWERS will ever get. But the drama starts once the girls become more forward with their feelings, and that last third is suffering central. It does stay fairly serious all the way through, though.

I wish it was all gangsta, that would've been fun. I do recall one of heroines' drama was she has nothing wrong going for her - she's well-off, her scholastic achievements are good, looks well, talks well, friends around, no past trauma like people dying. She was very seriously unhappy about lack of suffering. The routes themselves are fairly light in fluff as well, basically very few things happen. Not much else to be said.

Because the trial is the prologue of the game that isn't actually included in it, similar to the first game. Follows the cast and shows the first victim and how she's murdered.
If you've read it, the first scene with the suicide actually makes sense from the get go and you can actually see why he's suspicious.

Okay, that's pretty annoying. I didn't look do any research about the game. I just installed it from my backlog. Thanks.

I guess I'll have a look at it when I'm done with the 過去篇.

It's actually a nice point, with chapter 3 it goes back to the investigation again and the trial is actually short. That said, you aren't done with it yet after it 'ends'.
Brings back memories of playing through it without the 'the game will stop running like utter shit' patch where it took like 5 seconds to change an expression or tachi-e.

We don't personally know the guy, but artists are a sensitive bunch and they can easily pick up cues when they're being sidelined. The only scenario I can think of where all parties involved still end up in good terms is if Hinoue himself retires willingly.

A number of reasons. As already mentioned Itaru is one of the founding members of Key. But also many fans of the company actually like the art, and even besides that it's part of the company's image. The unique art creates strong branding, which might outweigh the loss of sales from those few people who won't play extremely popular and well-received games because of the artstyle.

Girlcelly reuploads stuff from Share, PD and Freenet and sometimes uploads games bought by Anime-Sharing on the release day. He's just been doing it for so long people think he's the sole provider of eroge.

Flowertradewinds is affiliated with 2djgame whose staff funds games and buys them in Japan and they reupload from p2p too. They buy the majority of titles released each month, but they usually withhold release until three weeks have passed or someone else uploaded theirs (which happens for 3/4 of titles they bought, it just takes some time). You can download their games off their FTP, which is available only to VIPs, not to mention traffic costs forum points you can obtain only by donating or filling requests of other members. Whether they do it to earn money for themselves or to purchase games and pay for FTP hosting (which is near 100TB of content) is up to you to decide. One thing is for sure - they're aiming to become the #1 provider of Japanese cartoon porn in these dark times because they also scan all h-manga magazines.

There are two uploaders on Share who upload games every month - レイミtKKK0PdPr0 and ﾍ(ﾟ∀ﾟﾍ)I9wKQCtfI0 and two on Freenet - Justice and Hs117. Back in the good old days you had like 10 uploaders on Share who didn't give a fuck about getting arrested and just uploaded everything on the first day.

Make it 5.6gb, the rest is additional content. About if it's smaller then hatsukoi, I dunno, it should have less cg/scenes for each heroine since it has more heroines, but it should balance I supose.

And dropping Death March.
Prologue is far too long, the writing and characters are bland as hell and when I finally got to the gameplay I got bored of dragging shit 5 minutes in.
Fights are absurdity slow if you don't ctrl them too.

Anyways maybe it gets better later, I'll wait for actual reviews but what I saw was really mediocre

It's there but it's even slower, you have to click like a dozen time just for one enemy.
And then you have to click on the 行動決定 button.
Anyways the problem is that the gameplay is either too slow or too fast, there is no in-between.
Considering everything else bored me out of my mind I don't see why I should continue to suffer, the writing and characters are really, really dull

Just finished the Harenochi Kitto Nanohana Biyori trial. Congratulations, Parasol, my inner white knight has been brought into overdrive.

Nanoka's absolutely dreadful life conditions and positive attitude is a setup that easily grabs my sympathy and protective instincts. There's also some multiple worlds/fake world business going on in the background, and Konomi is clearly hiding something nasty. Geez, this sure was much more melancholic than I expected it to be.

All in all, though, I probably wouldn't be able to recommend this to someone who ends up disliking Nanoka or isn't interested in a destitute loli white knighting simulator. Jun (the protagonist's brother figure) is one cool motherfucker and I hope he gets a ton screen time, but aside from him and the flower-selling girl, my opinion of the cast varies between "indifferent" and "annoying".

There's also some awkward writing at points, in particular one part where it's pointed out that some (very minor) characters will be referred to as X and Y from now, as if this were a report instead of the protagonist thinking. At times, the way the dialogue flows is kind of "unnatural".

I'll start AstralAir sometime tomorrow. The trial was quite enjoyable, so I'm looking forward continuing it.

>>12297079
