I was playing Aquapazza recently and decided to try out To Heart 2 after seeing the characters in the game. Turns out that 1 guy has been translating, editing, and proofreading the whole game alone for nearly a decade and he's almost finished. The translation is 100% complete and he's 80% done with proofreading. He has a beta out for anyone that wants to play through it. forums.fuwanovel.net/topic/10250-toheart2-translation-project-beta10-patch-available/ vndb.org/v20
Earlier today I got the ISO from Erogedownloader and applied the patch. Took ages so I uploaded it to MEGA. Here's an english patched To Heart 2. Seemed to work fine when I ran it on Windows 7. ToHeart2XRated 3.59 GB mega.nz/#!U9NhCKCS!iLF5YR90E1YdYCHwAJ-jq0m5qeMFMPWPn3Rfo_oCVno
Recent news? Today a new otome game came out from Mangagamer called "Fashioning Little Miss Lonesome". It's about 2 men, who are model recruiters, trying to get a beautiful shut in to model for one of them. No mosaics, fully voiced, and on sale for $20. mangagamer.com/detail.php?goods_type=1&product_code=1029
Mangagamer and Luna Soft's The Spirit Master of Retarnia (Ritaania no Seirei Tsukai -Meikyuu o Yuku Mono-) is 100% done with translating and editing meaning testing is next. vndb.org/v20487
Utawarerumono: Mask of Truth is now out on PS4 and Vita. $39 for the Vita version and $49 for the PS4 version with physical and digital versions of each version. This is the second part of the second game in the series and takes off right after the events of the first part. The first part came out earlier this year. vndb.org/v18717
Ok, I guess this is the perfect thread to ask: What's it more worth of my time Grisaia No Kajitsu the VN or the anime?
Owen Brooks
Thank you Jesus. Massive relief that he's still alive and kicking on his old site. I was resolving myself to going in raw with my dogshit skills, but this will save me the trouble. I'll just wait like an EOP until this beautiful man is finished.

Brody Sullivan

Isaac Gutierrez
I don't really mind. The catalog is large enough that nothing truly important is getting knocked off by one anyway. That being said, Sekai has licensed Teaching Feeling so it will likely never be finished and when it is, it will likely suck
Jacob Sanders
Definitely the VN. The anime takes nearly every route and tries to make a common route out of them while condensing a 50+ hour VN into 13 or so episodes. For that reason, it's a mess. Seeing the characters in motion is nice though.
They're one of the few decent threads on Holla Forums where people actually discuss what they like and go into depth when explaining things. This is the second one I've made. The first was months back when I started them up again. I can see why you don't want them to be something like a general though. VNs take time to read and rely on plot to discuss most of the time. However, these threads are very slow to the point of lasting more than a week each time. They nearly rival the Vita threads in longevity.
Juan Barnes
gtfo weaboo trash
Joshua Roberts
pls no
Xavier Bell
The VN itself isn't too great though, it tries to pull a YMK for looking at troubled girls but the plot seems so convoluted and wacky that it's hard to take seriously. The quality of the TL doesn't help either.

Bentley Moore
(((Sekai Project))) will always deserve those echoes.
I've never read the official translation so I don't know how it compares to the fan one. Its strongest point is when you're going down no route. Where it's a relaxing and fun slice of life with charming characters balancing out Yuuji's "muh war trauma" moments. How old is this guy supposed to be anyway? For all these events to happen to him, you would think he would be somewhere in his mid 20s at least.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, never ever buy anything from Sekai Project.

This is coming from someone who had their project picked up by them and it never got released. This was before I knew anything about them too, so I'll chalk it up to experience.
Wyatt Garcia
If you don't mind, I'd really love to hear about that. I made the OP Sekai image and I'm always looking to add to the list of their kikery.
Lucas Sanchez
There was also an edit of this classic and it was somehow even more fitting and hilarious.
Austin Anderson
I'm surprised that you didn't copy it last time I had my rant here. Basically I got picked up as a translator from fuwa a years back, worked with a fan group for awhile, sekai offered our group money to publish our translation. Since I wasn't the boss, I just took the money thinking "great we're gonna get published" but what wound up happening was that they just held on to the work we did - basically what they do is they pick on small fan translation groups, make them sign an NDA, throw them X amount of dollars per role, and hold on to the IP. It sucks because essentially what they do is hunt out works in progress, get the rights from JP company, and then buy you out, essential eliminating any and all competition and what they rely on is naive fan translators with good intentions, who really want to get the game out there for people to play, and they just snip the bud before it even gets to blossom. It why I quit doing translations, besides my own for fun, it really gave me a sour taste as a way to make some money in this field. Fortunately I know some people in the VN industry in Japan, having worked part time as a translator for a hentai company when I lived over there, so if I wanted to actually try and gets rights to a translation I could. I wish there were actually people that were more serious about translating games and getting them out there, I mean there is a huge market for it, and it would be really nice to share a lot of really good stories/games that are out there that only people that understand Japanese could play.
Dominic Sanchez
I disagree on this one here. Fan translation was always going to be better than any attempt to monetize it since fan translators did it out of passion, thus obscure works got translated more often and with higher quality. The "market" for people to actually pay for these is slim: The Sakura games and other Steam shit was flavor of the month for a while but it really dropped off once people realize how low quality it was. Sekai is mostly sustained on kikestarter cash, and I'd love to see their financials because last I recall they weren't doing too hot. I think getting VNs out there is good but Sekai did it at the expense of the community and basically destroyed what took ages to build up. They're the worst kikes imaginable.
What's their view on English translation? Do they see it as a serious source of revenue or just an after-the-fact pleasure project? And why don't you use your god-given powers to warn people about Sekai and cut off the source of the kikes power?

Isaiah James
That doesn't make any sense. Why would he have amnesia again? What happens between the end of the anime and start of the sequel to cause that?
Grayson Stewart
It's a gauntlet that tries to break you, user, but if you keep going you'll break through to see a genuinely great good decent story. Ara Cake should have been a merc from a rival company that helped the protag rescue Nemu right then and there instead of the long and mostly pointless epilogue just to get TardNemu. It would've been a simpler and better ending with just a quick fix. Also, you know, not leaving your cult daughter to rot away from madness in a twisted medical facility…
James Rivera
HAHA What? Wait, he had amnesia in the show, too? I'll be honest I don't know anything about the game since apart from gameplay I've heard there's little choice in things and how they play out like a kinetic VN. That said, all I know is the protag has amnesia in the first of the two games: Mask of Deception. Then the continuation is Mask of Truth, which came out recently.
Christopher Peterson
I SAID NOT VIDYA
Jose Hill
Yes, he starts with amnesia in the anime. I am asking about what major differences there may be between the anime and the first game in regards to going into the second without playing the first. What would I need to know from the first game that wasn't in the anime?
Daniel Martinez
>"Your childhood sweetheart, the bride, and the wife, meet and rape all of them!" There's titles which bring a smile to your face and then there's pure classic hentai titling
That Enzai - Falsely Accused one looks good. Don't know why you'd suggest Prison Battleship since Black Lilith is predominantly for cuckolds.
NOPE First of all, it's a MOBA isn't it? Bunch of RNG and card deck building like that Fate Grand Order nonsense. Second of all, and far more importantly, it's Taimanin. Never EVER go Taimanin. I know Chaos Arena is much less filled with abject garbage but it's just not worth it in the end.
I got tricked into speeding through Taimanin 3 and I refuse to touch anything from that series ever again. I'm no cuck.

James Bennett
Eh? If you played MGQ 1-3 as they were translated you'd be aware of the existence of Paradox as this is the project that Dargoth picked up who was also working on translating other MG games.
Jaxon Lee
How would having played the previous games make him aware of Paradox? I didn't find out about Paradox until nearly the whole first chapter was translated.
Angel Cruz
Key words being "as they were translated" if you were there for it starting on cuckchan Holla Forums and later for the split going onto /vg/ people would talk about the games while playing them this led to seeing other games too like "Violated Hero" and then the guy who was giving us VH translations started on Paradox.
If you were there you'd know. That's all.
I know because dropped translating the MG school game for Paradox which was sad.
Ayden Wilson
You don't have to actively discuss a bunch of other games being translated by Dargoth in order to play MGQ 1-3 as the complete English patches are released.
Lucas Bell
No I think understand. Is the whole thing translated? I don't like investing myself that deeply until I know I can reach the end.
Hudson Edwards
Part one has 76% of the total text translated. What isn't translated is You can access and read most of the sex scenes in the game. All of the main story, items, menus are translated. I'd say go for part one as it is. They are not releasing a complete patch just for part 1 and are instead opting to change the way the patch is implemented so they can speed up the process as well as have the patch work on the combined parts 1 & 2.
Bentley Hernandez
Also check Dargoth.com for info and updates.

Julian Jenkins
Literally the whole reason I picked the game up. I kept seeing her smug ass face in MangaGamer ads and I wanted to break it. Now I want to protect it.
Honestly, half of the most extreme content is so ridiculous as to be comical. And you can turn off the really extreme shit in the options menu. I'm pretty sure it's just the CGIs that get hidden but you can just skip through the scene manually. I would recommend leaving it on regardless of whether you like that content or not; you don't have to fap to it if you don't want to.
The only thing that still bothers me in retrospect was the ending where you unleash the beast inside. It's not "I'm gonna puke" gross, it's existentially disturbing.
Patreon trash games tend to do that. Just because it's made with renpy means it auto qualifies for a post, even if it's 0.0.1

He sperged out for fucking hours at me for posting a bunch of loli pics, I think he might have issues that he is projecting onto me.

The difference is in the age, head and hips. A pettanko is basically a midget with birthing hips. Usually tsundere.
A loli is a "little" girl, either in age or height - but they don't have the proportions of a pettanko, especially in the hips. THIS is also the final line of tolerance.
A toddler is a child. It's an innocent, little kid or even baby. You are now a depraved individual and no one sympathizes with you except for other depraveds. It's time to stop before you get a fetal fetish.

I think pettanko is just a thin body with a flat chest. They don't have to have great hips but it's not loli either. Also just filter shitposters. No need to even reply if you already know they won't add anything to the discussion.
Wait that's Mogudan? The same guy that draws absurdly curvy Rei porn? I think I can see it in the faces.
Ethan Bennett
Just another case of great artists deciding to go/remain hip-deep into NTR trash…
Pretty sure that VN is a very old work from Mogudan, though, and it's a JRPG hybrid title with actual gameplay and vanilla so it could be worth it. Maybe. Yeah. You can tell the guy studied Sadamoto's style to some extent. He has his own style when it comes to the eyes and hands but the shading is very similar, as are the sharper details.
Austin Jenkins
Pettanko simply literally means "flat". Lolis are small and flat. I guess if it's a giant with a flat chest, that could technically count as "pettanko" but not a loli. But if it's a small and flat girl, that's a loli for sure.
Kevin Cruz
>but they don't have the proportions of a pettanko, especially in the hips Pettanko is literally just small breasts you raging autist. It has nothing to do with the rest of the body. All normal lolis are pettanko unless they're some deformed oppai loli.

Jackson White
A fleshy Ara is a great Ara but that's too much, man. You need more figure in her shape so that the plumpness stands out properly.
Pic related is a great example of exaggerated proportions and plump without sacrificing shape. Too bad this one's from a kinetic nukige - even worse than usual nukige - making it utterly worthless. Waste of a character design. Though her feet are comically small.
Adrian Bell
Another couple of examples. Lune does great with this sort of thing but it's pretty– You know what? This is an entirely different artist, company, VN, and all but even here the feet are ridiculously tiny. What is this? Why do all shapely busty kyonyuu cakes have such excruciatingly tiny feet?

No but really what I want are character (or a character) like pic related in a story like or something really good. Just not nukige. Why can't we get writing at least on Collar X Malice's level but with cakes instead of bishis? Though to be fair, even most Otome titles aren't all that well written from what I've seen.

Why on earth would you do this? The good Stay Night anime (Ufotable's Unlimited Blade Works adaptation) only covers one of the routes, and it isn't even the main world-building route. You will not fucking understand Hollow Ataraxia without reading Stay Night.
And don't even think about watching the Deen anime, or watching Zero before Stay Night. The former is complete trash and the latter spoils way too much.
Lincoln Bell
Too late. I've already watched Zero. I've played the PSP/Vita game so I already know the basics of the battle royal setting. There's nothing SN has to offer me other than old, stale memes. I'm more of a Shiki fan anyway.

I played Teaching Feeling hoping it would be a daughterfu simulator. Now I am blueballed. Someone suggest me a VN where I can have a surrogate daughter, or, at the very least, a pure lover.

Levi Edwards
You should still read Stay Night first, or you won't get the full picture of each character. Hollow Ataraxia is first and foremost fanservice for people that liked Stay Night there's also an actual plot but it's secondary and much shorter than the rest of the VN. You won't be able to really appreciate characters like Rider without knowing Heaven's Feel.
Justin Perez
I've heard of that before. Is it anything like Long Live the Queen? I liked that, but I wish it were longer.

Don't bother trying to reason with secondaries.
It's much better than LLtQ, since it's an actual sim game rather than a "guess which choice kills you" game.

Princess Maker 2. There's an old DOS release with a good translation, but it's a beta so some endings are unfinished; and there's a new Steam release with a not-so-good translation, but "updated" graphics.
Isaiah Young
Holy shit, they're actually charging people 10$ per game and an additional 10$ just for fucking soundtrack. It's times like these I don't feel guilty about being a pirate.
Thomas Bennett
also no birthday suit for your daughter, its best to play the original since it has everything
Gabriel Kelly
That's not part of the original game unless you use the cheat code anyway.
Jaxon Morgan
cheats are part of the game, also you win the dancing contest, if you use it, because art.
Gabriel Ross
You mean the one where the guy is killed in various ways. I'm good.
Pretty much this. 2 has alot of good stuff and 1 & 3 were released recently. Here's hoping that release 4 someday, that has good art.
Parker King
I'm having trouble thinking of any.
Chase Wilson
I was surprised at how good UAB actually is. I went in expecting memes and loli porn and what I got was some really great writing and humor, with lolis as a bonus. It ended up being one of my favourite VNs. We're never gonna get a sequel are we? And I'll never be able to hug Annemarie
Luis Watson
Eww gross, wish I could refund the game now.
Logan Edwards
UAB and Everlasting Summer are two
Nathaniel Collins
I'm still waiting for the bastard to finish translating KuruKuru Fanatic, which was apparently 90% translated a couple years ago, though i heard that he dropped everything and now there is unfinished patches floating around in hopes someone will finish translating it.
Parker Lopez
What *are* some good Otome titles you can play on the pc? I want a change of pace.
Daniel Campbell
...
Ryan Clark
OUT
Ethan Brown
I don't know, actually. CXM is Vita-only as I recall. Maybe MangaGamer has something.
Collar X Malice is great, dude. You're missing out. Although Japan is utterly retarded when it comes to firearms and understanding the point of them. Everyone gets got in the hand like it's a Hollywood movie - unless they get shot in the chest, but only villains use their guns to s-s-shoot people!
Noah Rivera
eden* is pretty good. It sure made me shed some manly tears.
Lucas Butler
Art looks great but the whole "No PSP" thing puts a dampener on running it without an emulator.
Nicholas Sanchez
Did you beat the game? I can't figure out what the fuck to do. I got all 15 girls and even killed the chicken, but the game never ends. Supposedly, you're supposed to be able to clear the game so that you can see the three new scenes added in 1.10.
Carter Ward
I've been reading through steins;gate 0. It's pretty good so far, altough, I'm not so sure if i'm happy with them turning okebe into a normalfag. not like he'll stay that way I haven't finnished reading it yet, but i'm getting there.
Unrelated I might be mistaking this vn thread with a /hgg/ thread, so if i'm posting my thoughts about this in the wrong place i'll be sure to leave peacefully.
Cooper Bennett
nah, VNs are oftern lewd so porn discussion is common in these threads. Ive read about half of zero before stopping, my god the bad end completely ruins it for me, I cant look at some characters anymore without thinking that I wasnt supposed to be spoiled by the bad end. Ill probably finish it before Elite comes out, hopefully it will get a PC port in 2018.
Jason Cooper
was obviously meant for
Camden Lopez
Understandable. The only reason why i'm still going is because I find the whole A.I premise interesting. But seeing okebe traumatised and all the other characters being sad makes the whole thing painful to read.
Honestly, the further i go the more i wish i was playing the orignal.
Charles Parker
The game is actually really good, the thing is that everybody at the time even recommended to read the bad end fist, no idea why. I personally dont mind the tonal shift at all, even the first one had it midway through.
Adrian Taylor
The game is great, the tonal shift just hits a little hard in the feels.
They're absolutely mad.
Nolan Cooper
To the user that recommended me Dal Segno in another thread. Thank you. This VN is comfy and fun ride so far. Io seems to be best girl and Yamato is way more entertaining than the MC understands.
Gavin Bennett
Io is great but im thinking the notimouto is my favorite one. I mean how clingy can you be, its fucking adorable
Good for you, user. At least one of us got a good recommend. The thread before last was the worst for me in that.
WE NEED MORE FILTERS
Justin Turner
okay
Julian Fisher
What were you recommended and what are you in the mood for?
Luke Sullivan
Cakes and adult heroines with a good story (even if it's just vanilla). I was recommended something that turned out to be horrible cuckoldry
Adam Cruz
JUST
Jonathan Nguyen
can anyone post sauce of the german loli vn pls
Christopher Sanders
As a fan of cakes and vanilla, I feel you
ich bin pico
Sebastian Hernandez
No wonder so many people couldn't recommend you much. Cakes are very rare in VNs. Especially ones that you can romance. Most of the time they just tease you and you get no option to romance them. And if you do find one, it's moon only.
Here's something in english but good luck finding a quality story in a nukige. vndb.org/v116
Andrew Cook
I'm pretty sure that's getting it backwards. Unless I'm mistaken, the people who read NTR self-insert as the cuck, not the one doing the cucking. It's not evil, it's just retarded, as it embraces their lack of self-esteem. Blog: I know someone who deliberately gets women to cheat with him. According to him, it's not about making the other guy suffer, but about getting off on the power and ego boost of knowing that he's desirable enough to entice the woman to sleep with him even though she has a boyfriend. Who that guy is and how he feels is irrelevant. What matters is that he's better than him and has won out over him, in whatever sense. He actually prefers the idea of a traditional woman who wouldn't cheat, but is so disillusioned with them that he's begun contributing to the problem, which is as tragic as it is hilarious. Sage for blog and off-topic.
Nathaniel Ortiz
Yeah well what they did recommend me was asinine. But yes, that's the problem. I don't know why Nips do this and I will never understand the kind of low T mentality that puts a good Ara into a story only to have you be utter incapable of getting her. Pic only slightly related
That first recommendation isn't exactly what I meant, but only because the proportions are too outlandish. I mean look at the size of those things! I mean more like vndb.org/v19982 - which, for a nukige, wasn't too bad. The protagonist is still utterly delusional but it was interesting to see a moral dilemma brought up in a nukige. Still hypnotism though
As for the English recommendation: That's a heck of a way to open up. Yeah, I can dig this. I guess it's like you said, my dream VN of Cakes + intricate narrative will never come true. Still, it's not rape or cuckoldry so I might look into it.
You make a good point but we can't discount the type of NTR aficionados who genuinely get off to horrible suffering, especially that of even the woman and man both. You shouldn't be friends with swine, user. They are fit only for bacon.
Angel Rodriguez
That's the trouble with Japs, they have shitty taste on the whole. If you want something other than generic highschool girls you're unlikeley to find it outside of fetish nukige. Even the more basic things like tans and short hair are rare. The Japanese audience just really seems to hate variety.
Caleb Hughes
There's a ton of cake/milf stuff in eromanga though. There's probably a good amount in VNs too, just ignored by translators.
Cooper Gomez
I think it's more of the average person just not having good tastes. Imagine if the west drew as much porn as Japan and with the same level of quality. Do you expect to find good tastes all around? I doubt it myself (laws wouldn't help either. Some countries can't even have loli). Most of it would probably reflect Bangbros videos and situations.
William Taylor
That's a good point, 90% of everything is shit after all. It's been so many years since I've watched mainstream western porn that I often forget just how obnoxious it can be. I guess we just have to be happy with what we've got.
Jonathan Anderson
Would you play it
Levi Lewis
Puts Cakes in it and I'm in.
Jackson Stewart
What manga is this? I've definitely read it before, but I forgot.
Carson Cruz
Don't remember. Wish I knew.
Lincoln Parker
You didn't mention any sort of cute girls at all, and the setting doesn't sound like it'd encourage any either. Sounds like shit.
James Davis
Sounds great, would management be simple choices or a more in depth system (uses for money etc.) ? I'd like it either way though.
Last one I saw remotely like that was not even vanilla but rape-focused nukige with Taimanin's artist (I like his art style, the eyes really interest me, but it's also a bit cardboard compared to stuff like Lune which tries to be a bit softer). Although that one was weird. The protagonist was a rapist sent to take over a school from an adoptive uncle who wanted to destroy the school's reputation since it was (unintentionally) overshadowing his school and he was gonna put a hit out on the protagonist if he didn't do it, so the protagonist goes in to rape the most important teachers (who all turn out to be virgins), but he has a plan of his own to ruin his uncle's reputation and somehow inherit the fortune he was rightfully due. Somehow. I don't know, I read it via machine translation.
It was weird since the beginning felt like a legitimate rape sequence every time, crying and shame and pain, etc. (just two of the five girls had that usual hentai-logic "No! Don't make me orgasm like a madwoman!" / "no is yes" vibe, the rest felt extremely uncomfortable). Then, as you "groom" them with repeated sexual advances they all grow to like it and it really feels more like vanilla with Master-Slave kink overtones at that point. The route I liked the most even had it end with the protag having married his "slave" and was having sex with her while she was pregnant with their second child and unlike in the heinous cuckoldry of Taimanin, there was no mention of an abortion. So in a sense it starts out with rape but ends with vanilla - classic hentai-logic.
I prefer 100% vanilla but I might take what I can get, I guess. The reason I gave up on doujin and manga is because of the swelling of NTR and hardcore rape which was only getting worse. The hentai-logic of "SUGOI! OCHINCHIN REACHES MY WOMB! NO~
Logan Allen
Cool that you let us know
Connor Phillips
For someone to have good tastes, they either need to be introduced to many things in said medium or want to find it themselves. People who want to discover more will eventually have good tastes as they absorb more content (as long as they understand why it's good. Otherwise they're just blindly consuming). We most likely have shit tastes in something we don't explore much. I don't know shit about cars, so my taste with cars will be shit. Even if I did pick a good car, I wouldn't truly know why it's so good under the hood. As for porn, the average person doesn't expand past the few things that interests him/her. Therefore they'll never know what truly disgusts or excite them. I'll just quote myself from a post I made in the Sad Panda thread on /a/.
Daniel Baker
Last thread there was discussion about Uchikoshi's early days writing VNs. Since then I've had a chance to complete Never7 - the end of infinity. As far as I know it is his earliest VN, having been originally released in 2000. It isn't all that great. The character routes are 98% personal drama with stock character types. Later VNs he wrote have scientific and mystery story curiosities throughout the story to keep your interest. All the personal drama feels like filler on the way to the Shyamalan plot twist. A plot twist which is very poorly built up and lacks any narrative impact. The "twist" if you can even call it that is Schrodinger's Cat is a superpower that the MC can unknowingly use to rewrite reality. That spoiler makes the premise sound way cooler than it actually is. The plot is presented in the most lackadaisical manner possible when it should have been balls-to-the-wall crazy. Overall it's not the worst VN ever, just boring and forgettable. If you want M. Night Shyamalan plot twist wackiness, go straight to Ever17, Remember 11, or 999.
Ryder Cook
At that point, you may as well not even include sexual relationships. I think it would only hinder the game's possibilities. Not to mention that it is quite unrealistic, as a website like that would be subverted by every alphabet soup agency in the book. 5/10 start from scratch.
Robert Richardson
You are autistic
Jaxson Green
Yeah, he is. He's been posting in every VN thread lately and keeps making huge posts like that one, as well as reposting screencaps of random posts that he seems to think are great. Just ignore him.
Matthew Baker
I think I'm close to finishing Kagetsu Toya. I think I need to find some more Len flags before getting an ending. The repetitive nature starts to drag after several times. Worst part is I haven't seen an H-scene yet. I dislike needing to use a guide and help on top of skipping and savescumming.
Nolan Evans
Why would you delete your sarcastic "Glad you told us that" post and post this instead? That's embarrassing. You already bumped the thread. Lie in it.
He's been doing this for decades. Anyone make any painfull long pseudo-science exposition in Never7? Also Good choice.
I heard Ever17 was superior though. Looking at those screens, though the classic 90's anime art style really gets me I honestly can't remotely imagine playing through with text boxes highlighted in rainbow.
Robert Allen
There aren't many long technical explanations beyond relating what the Schrodinger's Cat thought experiment is. In the dialogue they made it clear that wishing for the cat to die or not neither works nor is the point of the experiment, but then turn right around and apply that to the main character. After learning about it he is then able to wish away all the other characters' problems because believing in his own ability makes it real. It's a lame ending. There are a lot of thriller and drama stories out there that take this concept and actually DO something with it. If Never7 began at the ending point and went from there with a story about the MC changing events and being forced to deal with the consequences, it would have made for a more compelling VN.
Eli King
I never made such a post though
Jaxon Campbell
This was really fucking good, its been along time since I cried so hard for anything. The music and direction of it was so well done. I wish I would see it posted about here more; I never have. The epilogue felt like it had a small problem as instead of Taiichi telling the story of his friend's suicide completely, it stating that he told it again. Still good enough to feel the pang of sadness from it. 黒須ちゃん†寝る was a very good pun on the final part and I laughed quite hard.
Tyler Brooks
It certainly would be…
Thomas Murphy
Keep spreading awareness of it then. Most people won't try out something unless they're given a good reason to. Despite all the sources we have people still come here for recommendations instead of trying out something from the list and going with it. I've never heard anyone mention To Heart 2 in these threads before I brought it up in the OP. Maybe nobody knew there was an english translation.
A Sekai Project employee could be scouting these threads right now looking for a new project to ruin pick up and kickstart.
Owen Watson
That sounds pretty terrible as I think the only English TL that is released is from fuwanovel. The only things I know about Sekai Project is that its mostly done by koreans and chinese and that the translation of Clannad was terrible. That is enough reason not to support them alone.
Parker Edwards
seconding this, lookin for small unique vn? look no further Misato best grill
Daniel Rogers
i remember playing this years ago. as shallow as it may be, my favorite part about this vn is that you basically get to and have to fuck all the girls except his mother to get to the ending are there any vns like that in the spoiler?
Chase Reed
I can vouch for their translations being D grade work at best. Sekai Project localized Neko Para, and they made the huge mistake of allowing the player to see both the original text and the translation in the same dialogue box. 90% of the translation is just a bit off from what was said or ignores the character's speech pattern, and the 10% they got right in terms of meaning, they fuck up by making it sound unnatural in English.
Angel Smith
>you basically get to and have to fuck all the girls except his mother to get to the ending I also found that pretty funny most of the time when I think about it. Though it didn't seem stupid or silly, it managed to pull this off very well and gave it a decent vibe.
I remember seeing that when it happened in a thread. I wasn't aware it was Sekai Project that had done that though. Fucking Chinese and Koreans, why do they always fuck things up like this.
James Wood
Source on that pic m8!
Landon Williams
If the thing had remained a fan project we'd have all of it by now, with a better translation. Fuck these lazy kikes.
Sebastian Edwards
Can you guys recommend a game/visual novel that appeal to my loneliness?
Katawa shoujo is an example. I just want to meet cute 2D girls, interact with them and feel more close to someone/something. Extra kudos if it involves some kind of gameplay other than just clicking next.
Good art is a must.
Daniel Hernandez
Unteralterbach
Isaiah Rodriguez
That's not how that word is used.
Michael Reyes
Have played it already, I need something new.
Hudson Nguyen
Dal Segno is pretty comfy as mentioned in this thread, one of the girls is already in love with you from the beginning of the game. Majikoi is amazing, there's definitely a theme of bonding both romantically and as friends.
Carter Gomez
Thank you, bro.
Gavin Ross
That image was from a thread before Valkyria Revolution was released. The game is trash in ever regard, but especially in that one. Also everyone dies because they caused a massive war for personal revenge. It's terrible.
Majikoi is majikal
Wait, why would I play something that comes with the recommendation of "It's really depressing"? …Is it good?
Samuel Wood
Im pretty sure he was talking about waifu being misused.
Robert Wright
How?
Charles Gutierrez
Waifu is a fictional girl that you have a deep emotional connection with, it has nothing to do with what you "get" in a game, the mere existence of a character makes it possible for it to be yours or someone else's waifu. Not to mention its grammatically incorrect
Alexander Butler
It's just someone who thinks people ever used "waifu" unironically.
Chase Anderson
But people did? Just because normalfags appropriated the word and basically use it as "pretty anime girl", which is all of them, doesn't mean the word lost its original meaning.
Connor Myers
It's always been a joke. Sorry that went over your head.
Levi Morris
Love Plus. I bought a NDS flash card just to play this game.
Chase Clark
Stop trying to steal and trivialize my culture you piece of shit.
Matthew Davis
It wasn't depressing at all, the ending could I suppose be viewed as only have a bad and neutral end but I wouldn't call that depressing by any means. The crying wasn't crying like from Clannad, but from the crying I had from NHK ni youkoso, which my tears made me think about some things. Where Clannad's was just what they call a "crying game". Also unrelated but if you can understand Japanese play the ~final complete~ version as it has many more CGs and content.
Nathan Carter
You don't have a culture
William Richardson
It's called the culture of marrying fictional girls and devoting part of our lives to them since we don't like 3dpd
Jaxson Ross
You can't marry something that doesn't exist.
Evan Turner
You can't marry them by legal standards sure but you can still devote your life to them and treat them as a spouse
Aiden Morgan
But its just you, it's all in your head'
Carson Morris
...
Andrew Thompson
You can in Japan, actually.
James Nguyen
So is the love 3dpd pretend to give you while in reality the love someone has for their waifu would be more real than any relationship you could have with women and their lies and deception that they use in order to climb higher in the social ladder and take your money.
