They kind of were. They had one of the oldest and most loyal fanbase, who were expecting a Renai game, not a NTR game. If you ignore Tamaki and make Nanase the actual main heroine, the game is quite good. Quite the decent effort, good story arcs and catchy music. But the NTR removed any chances of ELF making any games that did not involve NTR. Some people believe that the director just shoehorned it into the game because he wanted to shock people.

The old fanbase made every effort to boycott ELF no matter what. Sales for the (shoddily done) anime were dismal, and not even the ero episodes sold at all. After that, ELF just kept plummeting into the abyss faster.

As far as anime goes, they made Nanase like an afterthought, so it wasn't a surprise it bombed. I agree Nanase would be better as main heroine but that wouldn't get the NTR shock value which was intended. So it's hardly surprising people came to believe ELF just want to stuff NTR in any way.

Learning japanese is an ongoing battle, I've "known" the language for quite a while now but I still need a dictionary sometime, quite rarely but it happens.
But you can say the same about english, both language have a HUGE vocabulary so going back to a dictionary sometime is inevitable if you read a lot

Anyways I stopped using agth or any form of "automatic" translation after the first VN I went through mostly because I read a lot of LNs/novels at the same time and agth obviously don't work with these, that was about 6-7 months after starting to seriously learn japanese, I guess that was around that time I stopped looking at words every 2 minutes

I more or less agree with this guy. >>12430974 I didn't really dislike Tsujidou, but her route was kind of shitty and didn't develop her all that well.

There are worse charage out there, for sure. I enjoyed it a lot more than Majikoi, for instance. If the concept appeals to you, go ahead and give it a shot, but be warned that it's full of slang and silly kanji puns, so if you're not confident in your Japanese you might struggle a bit.

That's one of the reasons I was really looking it, I enjoyed Majikoi a lot before I started learning Japanese, and the voice actor jokes/references were fun. I mean, Shuichi Ikeda, holy shit.

It's really good, but some anon here said only the first three chapters are worth playing, so I'm reluctant to play the rest. The bestiality only means the shogun likes to get off on here puppies but she isn't even a heroine and you won't care about her at all most likely

The game itself is pretty silly anyway. The agave route tidy up the entire game and was a nice finishing touch, at least for me. As I said without agave it wouldn't better than an average moege, the routes are nothing but h-scenes anyway. For example I just finished lovesick puppies, and if I "just" compare routes with majikoi lovesick handled it better than majikoi for sure.

Sakimi won't get a redesign.

The art for the Maro series works like this:
Sakimi was drawn by Sakagami Umi, who did all of the art for the first game.
In the second game they introduced a new heroine Yukina, and her CGs/sprites were drawn by Ichikawa Saya. Sakagami still handled the Sakimi-related art.

Sakagami is a contract artist, not an elf employee, so she never left. She's still working on Maro (she even tweeted about it) and I'm pretty sure she's the one who drew >>12429509.

Hi /jp/. I'm from /a/ and I just started playing Visual Novels yesterday. I already dropped every anime that I'm watching this season besides Barakamon. This season is really terrible so without anything to do, I went ahead and tried playing a VN.

I'm currently playing Imouto Paradise and I'm loving it. It's light, fun, and it's uncensored. It's probably on the generic side but it's fine since I'm just starting anyway. I'm enjoying it so much that I'm kind of anxious to finish it. Because of that I wanna have more VN to play right after finishing it. It's my first VN so I don't know much but I think Imouto Paradise is pretty quality work. Good art, voice acting, music and it's uncensored.

Can you guys throw me some titles that is just like Imouto Paradise? Just light harem fun eroge. I'm already checking vndb as I type this but the number of titles overwhelms me so might as well ask you guys who already played a lot. I might play 4 more titles like this before checking out other popular VN that actually has plot and story like FSN and Higurashi.

Finished Root double.
Overall it was a pretty interesting read.

The first root set a lot of mysteries that got a great explanation by the end of the 4th root.

The characters are nothing special.

The sympathy system was interesting at first but I thought it was pointless by the end because you're pretty much forced to use a guide if you want all the relevant endings.

Also in the 3rd route memory recovery there were a ton of scenes that told absolutely nothing new and should have been skipped.
Luckily there is a skip scene button that is really useful.

Well not this one, the hook changes for each text box so you end up with a new string every time someone talks.

I've yet to look anything at all up though. There is no difficult language in it so far at all and a lot of the kanji it uses is furigana'd so its not like hooking it is really all THAT necessary unless you're just starting out.

The "not blood related" cop-out has been a common eroge complaint for years. Though not as much recently since more and more imoutos are blood related (which makes the presence of a non-related little sister in this day and age even more egregious).

People who want incest want real incest, not stepsiblings. This shouldn't be hard to understand.

Does anyone have a general idea of the reading difficulty of 大帝国 compared to most VNs?

Until now everything I've read has either been manga or 3DS games, so I don't have much of a point of reference for VNs. I think I've gotten through a little over a quarter of the story. Hitler has invaded the Soviets, the Battle of Britain is over, I've pushed up to Arabia on one front and Hawaii on the other. The reading difficulty is pretty overwhelming though, hundreds of new words each day, tons of difficult political talk, etc. I think I should take a temporary retreat and go to something closer to my level, but if the reading difficulty of 大帝国 is about what you could expect to see in most VNs then I'll keep pushing through.

It's probably the most pro-Axis game that I've ever seen. Most of the complaints that I've seen were about how the story "would be offensive if it wasn't so stupid", but it's actually one of the more accurate portrayals of the war.

>US funding the Chinese nationalists and Soviets funding the Chinese communists
>Japan intentionally provoked into war by the US through embargoes and outrageous demands.
>Prior knowledge of Pearl Harbor, carriers pulled out of Pearl Harbor before the attack to minimize damage of essential assets and use Pearl Harbor as a political tool to manipulate the population into supporting entry into the war.
>FDR portrayed as an impotent figurehead ruled by four plutocrats, two of which are named ロスチャ and ロック, clearly a play on Rothschild and Rockefeller
>The plutocrats are behind almost everything in the war.
>Germany and Hitler portrayed in a generally positive light.
>France portrayed as cowards. Italy portrayed as incompetent morons that forced Rommel to waste the war fucking around in Africa.

It all would sound ridiculous and possibly even offensive to people who only know about the war through school textbooks and history channel specials.

I really hate the main character, who is a giant Gary Stu with no flaw that can submit any female with one dicking session. In addition, the combat system encourages savescumming of the worst kind.

It was literally unplayable on release. I am not exaggerating. There is no attrition in the game. You either brought the right units to the battle and win without taking a scratch, or lose everything and get a game over. And yes, it's a game over if you attack and lose a battle. On release, you also couldn't see what ships/gimmick the enemy had, so there was no way to know what to use besides save scumming. Save scumming was a required gameplay mechanic. They eventually patched that to show you what the enemy had, which means that it's just an exercise in following directions. It goes "Weak against beams" and waits for you to bring only ships with beams because otherwise, game over. Then goes "Okay, now weak against missiles" and that is the entire game, not counting the holy shit bloated cutscenes that drag on forever every single fucking turn. Also, the story is a joke with a protagonist who is just a dick on a stick

So the dialog actually is bloated? That makes me feel better. It was bothering me a lot, but I assumed it was just my slow reading speed making me think that every single scene dragged on way too long while it actually might have been normal to people who can read at a better speed.

Playing Imouto Paradise 2 right now, and for some reason all of the H scenes that are animated have strange bugs. The animation starts, then not half a second into it it just restarts back at the first frame, stays paused for a second then does it again. Same thing happened in 1 so I'm not sure if it's intentional or not.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Im going Koharu-Mari-Chiaki-Setsuna, which someone recommended. Just got past Koharu's first H-scene, it's kinda sad to see Haruki ruin everything he touches.

Just finished Nanoka's route in Harenochi. Now that I have read those spoilers posted previously, I think they are a bit misleading.

"Nanoka" was bound to die no matter what happened. She's actually Ayana, Konomi's dead sister, who had her soul "infused" into a short-lived fake body. Eventually, Nanoka gets pregnant and gives birth, then disappears. Years later, the child turns out to have Ayana's soul in it, but since it was too much burden for a child body, her memories were sealed. Now they are together forever, as parent and child. With some incestual undertones.

To sum it up in an hilariously out of context way, Nanoka gave birth to herself. But honestly, all things considered, the ending was happy, and certainly not a stupid bad end coming out of nowhere. I was glad to see that they didn't just do a cheap time skip and the process from pregnancy to the epilogue where they meet again was heartwarming to see.

Either way, I'm not going to go through any other route because it's really clear that Nanoka is the true heroine. The poor guy turns out to be broken inside. After he regains his memories, he desperately clings to the idea that Ayana is out there waiting for him and clings on to "Nanoka" after finding out the truth.

Not sure I'd recommend this game. Nanoka is lovely and Jun is a great guy, but I didn't like the rest of the cast. The game also feels kind of sloppy and "cheap" overall.
