More like NO YU

>>5308693
My benis...

>>5308693
Thoughts on WHAT??

>>5308693

YU No. More like fuck no amirite.

>>5308693

I played that back in the day. Even paid for it, lol.
I really wanted to like it, but in the end it was pretty boring.

>>5308693
>yu don't no

>>5308693
yu-no who?

>>5309154
YU(ck)-no

>>5308693
seems it was pretty popular in Japan and it even gets a new Anime adoption.

YU-NO, I really like that game.

Good music, shitty game.

I played it a few years back and really liked it.
picture related, best girl

Yu-No what it is.

>>5308693
The remake is getting a western release so this’ll be interesting. I’ll miss this game being my obscure favorite.

>>5310517
Since the remake looks like hot garbage, it will be the perfect pleb filter.

>>5308693
I would've vastly preferred getting a translation of Xenon instead.

>>5310537
You don't deserve anything.

>>5308693
I think I have seen this movie. With the preggo, right?

>>5308693
Is about 200 hours too long. So, the same as every VN.

>>5311308
>Is about 200 hours too long.
It actually feels unfinished. Several parts were sadly cut during developpement.

>>5311316
As always with this, it's not that it's "unfinished" that is a problem but rather that they finished the pointless or irrelevant parts.

But the game has more bullshit than an early Sierra P&C.
>click to go to lab/power station (can't remember what it was, but it was the building right at the start)
>"I can't go there until I find the chick."
>my assumption of what this means: You have to look around and find the chick
>what the game wants you to do: ignore what he said and click to go there again (twice in a row, not just twice over all).

Like when you jumped time lines, the final world and explanation was a let down

Have this in my backlog.
How is it, gameplay wise?
Is it like...
X-change or Tokimeki Check In
>Press spacebar and occasionally pick an option

Season of the Sakura
>Have to choose look think and talk but otherwise it's pressing spacebar

Runaway city, three sisters story or nocturnal illusions
>Have to autistically look think talk and move, checking every possible location every 5 minutes in order to progress to get the next dialogue

Season of the Sakura is my favourite, for reference

Likely the best VN of all time. One of the masterpieces of gaming.

Oh, you know...

Shouldn't have been EOP'd.

>>5312062
stay seething.

>>5308693
Oh hey I was just gonna come here and start a YU-NO thread.
Overall it's very good and unique and people should play it. Occasionally the art and the music are fantastically beautiful. Over time I've probably built it up in my mind to be better than it really is. It really is just a goofy sci-fi story at the end of the day, one which even sort of starts to fall apart at the end, in spite of some occasional flashes of something truly remarkable.

>>5311865
It's the third one. There are many screens where you just have to try clicking on every pixel multiple times until you can finally advance.
But you should still play it because everything about it outside of the gameplay is so good.

It's an excellent game that's more than the sum of its parts. The dialogue is extremely well written and fun to read, and the character interactions are great. The aesthetic and music are on point too. Pity it's too long for brainlets.

>>5312735
>more than the sum of its parts
That's a great way to describe it. It's just got that magic to it, even if it's hard to explain why.

Bump

What do you want? I'm here.

someone post the remake comparison

Nyaa seems to have two different versions of it: Fuwanovel and Elf Classics. Are they the same or different?

Also, is it doable blind or is it a case where the agony of missing crucial flags isn't worth it?

>>5317790
Oh sweetie.

So was Kanna Takuya's daughter?

>>5317790
Avoid fuwanovel.

>>5317971
Yes

>>5317790
I got 100% completion blind, it's definitely doable.
The game has a built-in flowchart/map thingy to help out.

>>5317971
It's possible we don't know for sure

>>5317790
There are three versions of YU-NO.

The original PC98, the Saturn release and the Elf Classics version for PC. These differ a bit, but for your purposes you just need to know the English patch works with the Elf Classics version and uncensors it to the level of the PC98 version and adds content from the Saturn one.

Fuwanovel is just preinstalled version of that English patched Elf Classics.

>>5317971
I mean, it's pretty obvious even if it's not said outright.

>>5309650
cringe

>>5318061
>I got 100% completion Blind

Absolute madman. Do you have a lot of VN experience? This would be my first.

>>5318191
A bit. I think I've played maybe 10 before it.
This one is different from most though, since it has point-and-click elements.

You don't need to worry about locking yourself into a dead end or anything like that, you can always restart the game with your current inventory in tact. It also has a neat save system that's meant to be abused, it'll make sense once you get into it.

Hold ctrl when going through a scene you've already seen to skip text.

>>5318237
Sweet man, I hate walkthroughs and I thought it was inevitable.

>>5318281
There is one section where you have to solve a nonogram out of nowhere.
There was a bonus disk that added some easier nonograms for training that should be included in the élf Classics version. Otherwise you can also just play Picross to understand nonograms.

Hint: rewatch the opening after you feel stuck.

>>5318294
>Hint:
I ended up bruteforcing that puzzle, since I completely forgot about the opening.

Help

>>5319176
I love picross

>>5319423
Shit. the red should be blank

>>5319176

>>5319428
That puzzle draws the word YU-NO?
Looks like a nonogram puzzle.

>>5319520
Nevermind. Nonogram is Picross.

>>5317790
It's a time travel game. You have infinite chances to redo things, there's nothing that's truly missable.

Can someone explain what exactly happened to Takuya's dad?
