Hey /jp/, Live A Live VN Guy here.
I've been making some serious progress recently and might be able to get the backgrounds done soon.
After that comes the character art and after that comes all the optional garbage.
The game will have voice acting if I can find my old karaoke microphone.

Question:
How should the VN end?
End it with Oersted's chapter or go on to do the Sad Ending?

Maybe you should reconsider

I'll echo >>6057085 here. Don't worry about voice acting.

Can't you do typical route gameplay?

If you've played Live A Live, you'd know choices wouldn't work well in Oersted's chapter

WHICH sad ending? There's, like, three.

Fucking DEPRESSING game, that is.

Do you mean choosing Oersted in the Final Chapter?


Nah. That's a very empty ending.

[Live A Live VN Guy !zItA78aWiE No.]

But it would fit the rest of the VN perfectly.
Because the other chapters haven't been implemented yet, it wouldn't make sense for the heroes to beat him.

And I think you're forgetting the Armageddon Ending, though I can't really blame you.

Anyways, I'm getting to bed now.
I'll be back either tomorrow morning to check this thread or whenever I make my next update.

That's not what I meant. Surely there's a way you can branch it and make it work, just like in the game.

Let's assume for a moment that there are 7 paths available, just like in the original. I don't know if you're implementing actual gameplay or just conveying the respective story, but let's open up the 8th path after the player reads/plays through the first 7. After the 8th path is cleared, the player can re-choose any of those 8 paths for a variation on the "Final" Story.

A happy end could be chosen by choosing one of the first seven. A sad end could be chosen by choosing the 8th, Orsted's.

But conveying the Armageddon ending might be troublesome. It's a conditional branch in the original that only happens if you're losing when choosing Orsted for the final chapter. I don't know how you're planning on going about this.

Or, even, how are you going to do the Kung-Fu chapter?

First of all, there is no gameplay. The VN is just a retelling of the events that happened in the game.
Also, at the moment, the only path available is Oersted's, and I'm not sure if I'll be including other paths later or not.

That being said, the Kung Fu chapter would be easy. It's the Prehistoric chapter that scares me.
Everything else (exept maybe Ninja and Wrestler) would be pretty easy.
