The nostalgic visual novel on-line site seems to have recovered from its DDOS attack and is accessible again. It's a site where you can play oldschool eroges and other VNs and even keep your saves there. I really recommend True Love for some stupid dating sim fun. tss.asenheim.org/
Mary Skelter: Nightmares released today for the Vita. It's a Dungeon RPG that takes place in a large horror themed prison. The special edition is still available on Iffy's website. iffysonlinestore.com/MarySkelterNightmaresLE vndb.org/v20727
Oliver White
Is Policenauts a visual novel? I want to play that.
Samuel White
Rance Quest translation when
Joshua Harris
Adventure games were considered VNs to Japan so yeah. The problem is only the non animated version is translated.
blog.mangagamer.org/project-status/ Says its at 23%. Good news is that a few others are at 100% now. Meaning all that's left is scripting and testing. Like Imouto Paradise 2, A Kiss for the Petals – Maidens of Michael, The Spirit Master of Retarnia, Sorcery Jokers, and Evenicle.
Sebastian Campbell
Fucking bullshit.
Nolan Ward

Muv Luv Alternative just officially released in the West.
Samuel Brown
On Steam, if you're like me and waiting for the non cut up copy and all three bundled together, expect to wait abit longer.
Grisaia Rakuen adult version isn't out yet either, always takes 6 months more than Sekai. Lucky to get it by Christmas.
Connor Robinson
Degica is a much smaller company than Sekike though.

That opening is so nostalgic.
Huh? The PS1 version is more animated than the original PC98 version.

I'm still doing Collar X Malice, myself. It's surprisingly long (then again, I keep taking breaks). Currently on Seaweed's route and his reactions to the portagonist's idiocy at times is pretty funny. Very expressive for a mostly taciturn shortstack.
Benjamin Long
I'm in the same position. Waiting for the uncensored physical edition with PinkHair's figure.
Degenerate
What vn are you talking about, though? Sounds funny.
Are you waiting for an official English release of a Sekai project? Don't do that.
Jackson Bennett
Anyone know of more Horror/Mystery VNs like Higurashi and Kara no Shojo? Or just VNs with darker themes in general?
Crimson is only 10 bucks so it's the cheapest option and it gives you a good value. KnS2 is cancer to anyone who like me who doesn't like being mocked by the author or how things turned out in KnS's """true end""" but it's still got that serial killer mystery flare. Euphoria is deceptively deep and incredibly twisted after the first half. Only downside is the ending is meh compared to what it should be and there's not enough of best girl (there'd never be enough of best girl anyway though).
There's also Umineko but that turns to garbage after the first three chapters or the "Question Arc" or whatever. Once it drifts into chunni trash and nonsense instead of sticking to the WhoDunnit? meta-mystery it goes wrong.
Alexander Rogers
Euphoria was a masterpiece. Fucked up, but a masterpiece nonetheless.
Ryan Sullivan
I didn't even realize it got translated. Fuck I could not buy games for the next 2 years and still have too much to play. But right now I'm waiting for my Mary Skelter to come in.
It was on sale at Rightstufanime. Looked cool so I grabbed it. I recommend YU-NO if you want another timeless classic with some fantastic music.
Shit I forgot to put those Sekai Project images in the OP this time. It needs to become common knowledge not to trust these people.
It's not R-18. I hope it's comfy at least if they're not going to make it lewd. Hopefully I'll see lots of best cat in motion.
Andrew Martinez
End of next year is my guess with how slow they are. Its translation will be butchered and we may or may not get a R18 version on Denpasoft.
Hey OP, maybe I'm dumb but the OP doesn't play for me. When I checked the .avi file it's only audio like an mp3. What's needed to run this old thing?

The game is there but the game opening video, I mean.

Bentley Murphy
By Denpa I meant. And I just wanna finish Yuuji's story, not wait 6 months between releases.
Don't forget to mention all the rape and scat in Euphoria. It needs to be mentioned because you need to know what you're getting into.
Crimson Grey I tried because I was bored but it's pretty good. Lizzie's quite sweet when you indulge her and she's not trying to kill you.
Joseph Smith
Everyone likes to give Ciel shit but honestly I think she just has a route that doesn't give her a shine like some moments in others
Camden Powell
feels weird having my shit put up there. too bad you didnt get the first one, it was much better, but whatever
Jaxon Campbell
Do you understand Japanese? If so what level?
Ian Cooper
Little Buster gas been confirmed for November 1st.
Christian Allen
Quality work JAST. Still, this isn't bad so far. Hank Hill already has 2 party members and the mage comes with 4 skills like healing and paralysis. Also this art style. Everyone has the tiniest of waists and massive shoulder pads. Noice
Benjamin Long
Only one party member is a secret in the whole game, honestly the only thing you need to concern yourself with is which waifu you decide via sleeping at inns after completing jobs.
David Rodriguez
You forgot to mention that, in the first five minutes, we already have better humor and a more interesting set-up than most anime today
ADVENTURE HAJIME
And yeah, this artstyle is great. I wish Mogudan returned to it, actually. Well, keep his advancements in detail and softness but return to this kind of thing. Also like how the voice acting, which is decent, sounds like was all recorded in a closet.
Christopher Wright
Nice trips What's "Little Buster"?
That's part of what we do. Embrace the embarrassment.
I don't know what you mean. Everything is 100% consensual most time.
I found it great that a dirt cheap Western VN with only two characters (aside from the protag) turned out so good. I also find it funny how the "true end" is, following in the Japanese tradition, not as good as the other "good end". Reminds me of Tsukihime and Kara no Shoujo. Why do Nips keep calling "canon" on the worst endings and leave the best endings as non-canonical? I guess Tsukihime doesn't count since Nasu's never touching that with a ten foot pole ever again thanks to the getcha gambling empire he's built off the withered souls his anime waifu have drained dry. Point still stands, though.
Joshua Hill
That shit is where I draw the line, fucking bullshit.
Kevin Wood
I'm getting hit real hard by these nostalgia kicks, man. I can't keep this up. These classic anime styles and music are bringing back so many memories I can almost smell the couch of my old house and the pizza my folks and I would eat while watching a random OVA we'd rented from the local Blockbuster
Leo Robinson
Oh stop. It's scarcely in the VN and I think there's an option you can even turn it off. If you can't handle a scene or two of scat how can you handle all the gore and worse later on?
Aaron Thompson
A CG has two of the girls being force fed… yeah, you see where this is going. 2.2 means there's a fair bit.
By not playing it and staying sane?
Josiah Rodriguez
There's a six letter word for your type
Ayden Green
Those aren't shoulder pads. That's cloth. That "girl" is a man in disguise. No other way about it with shoulders like those.
Nathan Roberts
...
David Price
I'm surprised there's no cheese grater there
There's a difference between gore and guro, I hate guro.
Jayden Perez
Obviously the shoulder pads aren't the cape/cloak she's wearing. They're on the clothing beneath it. Come now
Xavier Jones
Good point. I forgot about Maggot Baits No, this is by the same studio but there's absolutely no guro from what I remember. It's all Kara no Shoujo-tier gore and twisted turns. None of that is done up to "titillate", though the scat portions are fleeting and you can skip them or turn them off as I recall.
Christopher Martinez
I have a mighty need for vanilla feels VN with gameplay, any recommendations? How is brave soul? looks like fun.
Kayden Cox
It is actually, genuinely fun. I expected hokey nonsense but the writing isn't half bad, the artwork is Aces (Mogudan at his best before he lost all sense of proportion, which is saying something considering the Aeon Flux waists of these characters) and the gameplay is real-time combat clicking and walking around. It's aged well
Wyatt Gray
i will give it a try, what version is the best? or does it only have one translation?
Joseph Bennett
The one OP posted
Cameron Johnson
>Character says, "For the past few years, the government had been debating that law, but public outcry stopped the repeal talk every time"
This is a joke, right? The Japanese public have been continually against the government repealing a law which prohibits self-defense weaponry? As in, the Nips actually argue FOR dis-empowerment? They literally WANT to be unarmed?
I know the Japanese are largely firearms illiterate and constantly pretend that guns are either bad, cheating, only for the military or should only be used to shoot other guns out of criminals' hands but come on. This cannot be serious. Please tell me Japan is not this much of a failed populace.
Dylan Howard
the only weapon you need are your fists and dick, user.
Jonathan Gomez
Even Rance uses a sword. There's no excuse. Nips should learn better from their heroes
Nolan Evans

Jaxon Butler
Mediocre Just stick with Tsukihime
Aiden Hughes
Extella is alright. Good girls but completely fails to keep up that mystery vibe Extra had and when it's mainly just Servants then they aren't special anymore, just superpowered people.
Fun Fact: Altera is Best Girl Another Fun Fact: "Extella" was said to mean "Away from Earth" or something, meaning Nasu or whoever named Extella its name was a silly Nip who meant to say "Exterra" - as in "Ex-Terra", but Nips can't into English so there we go.
That said, I guess this doesn't count since it's barely a VN.
Henry Turner
I think it's intentional in the same way that Japanese companies will capitalize random letters in logos to make them look cooler NieR Automata, RepliCant, YoRHa being a recent example In addition, it would be odd for the company that came up with the english/greek mash of "Hollow Ataraxia" to have that accurate a spelling on there but not later. It's most likely intentional which doesn't make it any less stupid, just intentional for Japanese audiences.
Austin Bell
YO HOL' UP! Are you joking? I don't know how it works in the "Take My Arms Away" Islands but the right to silence is a right that is exercised most effectively when you also exercise your right to an attorney. Why would you just remain silent during an interrogation? Are you dumb? Profess that you are exercising your right to silence and requesting your right to an attorney. Boom. Now they have to wait for the ultimate buffer of a lawyer to come in and even then you'd barely speak since he'd be the filter between you and the cops.
Why do Nips not know anything of the most rudimentary proceedings of legal procedures?
Brayden Morgan
What do you expect from a shitty otome game?
Nathaniel Green
It's not a bad game but when the author starts writing about things he clearly doesn't and never bothered actually researching with any depth it gets painfully embarrassing. That's probably the worst part about it. Thankfully that's not too frequent but MAN does it get the goosebumps going to hear police officers council a guy on an interrogation like teenagers or start talking about firearms as though they were spawned from the Devil's loins.
Dominic James
Anyone know the progress of that one Alice in Wonderland-like VN?
Sebastian Myers
OP, you are the best. Never let anyone call you a faggot without proper cause.
Andrew Perry
Probably due to their extremely low rate of crime. The worst thing they have to worry about is the occasional bicycle theft and train perverts.
Xavier Reed
because he is a faggot
Chase Garcia
I always prefer the writing and style of the older games and have played almost every one of the PSX and SFC so I finally got a PC88 emulator. I got Eve Burst Error and Necronimicon but the backround for Necronimicon makes the kanji too hard to read. Any other good older games?
Luis Walker
We have train perverts to thank for Rapelay, so I say "thank you, you skeevy fuckers."
Isaiah Sanders
I've heard Nocturnal Illusion was a fun ride. YU-NO is also a must play. Looking at this, Desire looks good too. It even has an adult protag. vndb.org/v151
Is this the dedicated Unteralterbach/not vidya/porn thread?
Adam Wilson
I've played Desire, and I gotta say, it's fun. Albert was fun, especially during the first sex scene. The plot has the right amount of mystery and scifi and suspense. Soundtrack's fun too.
Samuel Miller
So another game to a list of shit I need to play. I need to find something solid to grip me besides fighting games. VNs are nice to view casually though.
Wyatt Thompson
Ah cool I'll just download them. I've own YU-NO on the Saturn picked it up when I was in Japan.
Sebastian Foster
The game is 90% loli. It won't get an accurate adaptation.
Zachary Young
And this is why Sekai will almost certainly ruin Teaching Feeling.
Andrew Butler
I just actually checked it out and it seems legit: Teaching Feeling is being given over to (((Sekai)))
I think it was mentioned before in an earlier thread but this is pretty sad news.
Lincoln Lewis
Not that I think the YU-NO remake will be better than the original, but who thinks Sekai project will pick that up too? Seems too important not to pick up.
Zachary Sanchez
Sekai project is one of the main reasons i'm learning moon runes right now
Dylan Cooper
In Steins gate news, Zero anime is going to be watered down shit and Elite is a complete joke, I don't know what I expected.
Alexander Parker
Isn't it some horrible blend of using clips from the original anime in the VN for scenes instead of just sticking to the outspace style of Huke?
Carter King
Yes, and it also cuts out 90% of the fucking text look this this shit
Chase Peterson
If there was one game I could wipe all memory of and play again fresh it would be YU-NO.
Nathaniel Young
What about Zero? Not that I really care honestly. It was a pointless tacked on addition to the original that actually hurts the original story. Only good thing it brought was the legal loli and perhaps the Finn.
I can understand getting rid of some of it because japanese writers have a horrible tendency to ramble on about pointless shit, but that's clearly excessive. A (competent) editor is needed to prevent verbal diarrhea, though that's a job for an editor and not the translator.
Thomas Butler

Luis Howard
Somebody explain visual novels. Are they like sgadowgate? Been seeing a lot of these on steam and am hesitant to try them, but is they're modern day shadowgate then I'll give some a shot
Ian James
They are good just don't get them off steam go on mangagamer or some site like it
Parker Lewis
How are they good? Why not get them off steam? What are visual novels like?
Jayden Scott
some of the better one's have a good story to them and steam censors the shit out of their visual novels and depending one which kind you get it's either a click and read or has rpg-like gameplay
Sebastian Thomas
No. That's an adventure game/dungeon crawler it seems. While some VNs can be adventure games or dungeon crawlers, you'll be hard pressed to find one like that.
Here's the definition I got from the Visual Novel Database (VNDB).
This is the most basic type of visual novels. Over time many have gotten more gameplay but still keep that style of story telling where text is over an anime-style background image along with BGM. Adventure games have also been pulled into VNs because some have taken up their way of portraying a story. And not even all of them have gameplay or choices. For example, Kinetic Novels (a subgenre of VNs) have no choices and might as well be a really well made powerpoint presentation.
Same way any story can be good really. However some play them because they site between a soft spot between manga, anime, and vidya. The depth and detail of manga, the color and music anime can bring, and the gameplay you can only get in games. Usually, when a show is based off a VN, people will always recommend the VN because an anime could never go into as much depth or cover some controversial stuff like the VN could in detail.
Because then you don't actually own the game. That and you have to log into Steam every time you want to play a game which is annoying. Another reason is that there are many bad VNs on Steam as well has horrible publishers (((Sekai Project))) who are killing fan translations. It would be a better idea to buy them from different websites if possible. If it's from Sekai Project, then pirate. They steal projects taken up by fan translations, sit on them for ages on end, and then released an half assed product.
To be honest, many are games where you romance and fuck cute anime girls. Many actually have stories, characters, and/or universes that can be interesting like Fate/Stay Night, Tsukihime, Clannad, YU-NO, 999, Demon Bane, Saya no Uta, Planetarian, Phoenix Wright, Tiers to Tiara, and such. Many of them are R18 because they have porn scenes. Some are pretty forced while others add them in at appropriate times. Some (nukige) are focused heavily on porn and the plot is an excuse for the sex scenes. Like Kanojo x Kanojo x Kanojo and Monster Girl Quest.
Generally, people who like anime to a certain extent will try out VNs. Not all are turbo lewd and some can actually be very relaxing to read. The plot is the main focus for many so it's common to see huge rants about how shit a story was. I hope this helped some.
Jack Gutierrez
So I'm expecting Brave Soul to kick into being a grand epic adventure but it seems like it's mostly light-hearted all the way through, huh?
Guess we won't be seeing anything like Evanicle out of it… Which is for the best. I like that the world-building coincides with the game's progression, though. They don't spend hours and hours introducing every little facet of the world but let you discover it on your own, like when you go to the temple with Alicia or when you pick up a magic rock with a recording of your mother talking about how excited she is to have you long before she died after giving birth
Angel Clark
Speaking of, anyone got an update on Evenicle? mangagamer.org/evenicle/ Blog says: It's been at 94% for a while now, though. I know it's MG so it's not gonna get NEVER EVER'd but still.
Matthew Cook
Today OP was not a faggot.
Chase Cooper
And I bet a book that is more than 200 pages is probably just 50% filler to these types of people as well.
Nathan Gray
Anyone try out Your Smile Beyond Twilight? It's a short chinese nakige kinetic novel.
This one came out of nowhere. Pretty short but I actually enjoyed it
Juan Cooper
Reminder that Ar Tonelico 2 got completely unfucked thanks to fans and not only undid the damage that NISA did, but restored the game to the point that they've revived content that not even the JP version has while also adding in a hard mode.
Here's a torrent for the YU-NO soundtrack if anyone's interested: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:f3c5941aa8ab34094789e8da0cd4b3fbcef2f791
What's it like watching anime with your parents? I'm not sure mine even know it exists.
Ryder Lewis
I don't so I wouldn't know but I imagine it would be pretty weird
Joseph Myers
I used to watch Ninja Scroll and Demon Eyes Kio with my dad. I also watched Claymore and Ghost in the Shell with my mom. It was pretty fun especially when we commented on anything cheesy that happened. They usually enjoy action heavy anime so I don't watch any SoL or such with them.
Matthew Johnson
>vndb.org/v16640 >Monster Rape >Group sex of one female and multiple males Is this shit a failstate? I like that artist and the premise is nice and goofy, but if you can't avoid that stuff into the fucking trash it goes.
Jason Baker
An user said in an earlier thread that those horror shows are relegated to NPCs that you don't romance. All the main girls don't get raped/eaten. Also, yeah the failstates are supposedly pretty brutal in previous Alice Soft games.
Xavier Adams
At least you're not getting cucked, I guess. Would be better if you could avoid that shit entirely, but if the rest of the game is high-quality enough then whatever.
I'm fine with failstates being awful, punishing the player for fucking up makes sense. It's when a game makes you sit in the corner and watch with no way around it that I get pissed off.
Hunter Robinson

Ian Roberts
NICE!
'Lad My dad showed me Akira when I was 7yrs old. He introduced me to Ninja Scroll, GitS and even The Irresponsible Captain Tylor. There's terrible stuff we'd watch, like that Alexander anime (from the same studio that made Aeon Flux) and the very, VERY homophilic Count of Monte Cristo anime, but then we'd cleanse our pallet with some DBZ OVAs or the like. I remember watching Berserk with my folks before we knew it was a manga and thinking "What is this?! It has no ending!!" just like the manga :^)
Going through Brave Soul is really bringing me back, too. I miss those days. I miss when anime was outrageous and showed full-on gore when someone got their head blown off instead of everybody just being giant sacks of blood. I miss when anime characters had distinct, sharp lines to their artwork instead of this off-the-same-boat garbage we see these days where everything basically looks like SAO and even shows as gritty as AoT look fake somehow. I think an anime actually made fun of this once. It starred some fast-talking crazy chick and a cutie who continually died because she was from outerspace and kept vomiting blood. Sage for absolutely off-topic. TL;DR I know where you're coming from.
Can I play it without an emulator? Also, good on them. NISA is cancer for translation overall.
Connor Thomas
I hate those. Tried one from Erect Lip a while back and I can't stand them. Might as well just give me a mp3 and an art gallery.

Aiden Lewis
My dad and brothers introduced me into a lot of stuff. My brothers got Naruto and Berserk's first few volumes and shonen jump. Didn't know what manga was I why this shit read in the opposite direction but I thought it was all cool despite picking series up in the middle of big fights. I was 9 when I started reading Berserk in 2001 and the violence never bothered me. Hell I thought edgelord Guts was cool as hell.
Later on I got introduced to more shows my dad bought like Last Exile, (great show) Eureka Seven, and Captain Harlock. I didn't care for it when I was a kid but lately I read Queen Emeraldas and loved it. So now I'm going to read Captain Harlock. First volume came out recently. I don't think I cared for the show's pacing when I was younger but I think now I can truly appreciate it. Now I'm much deeper into anime and manga more than my siblings. I gave my dad Golgo 13 for his birthday.
I think this mainly had to do with how Japan was flourishing during the 80s-90s. They had the cash to pump out crazy OVAs like Golden Boy and Ninja Scroll.
Yeah we, sadly, don't get much real gore these days besides insane blood splatters. It doesn't need to be X tier (damn that movie was so edgy to the point of comedy) but I think we could use some more gore. As for shows being outrageous, there's still tons of that. Shimoneta is a good example of this as well as Aho-Girl. Saying that though, the 2000s anime had this bizarre sense of humor. Watched A Certain Magical Index earlier this year and some things just made me think "Yup. This is definitely from the 2000s.". With some of the humor being nearly random at times. However, I'm still glad a show like Excel Saga can still make me laugh. Still one of the funniest show's I've watched and now I'm reading the manga along with watching shows like Idolmaster and Sukasuka.
Definitely. However I don't have a problem with this. I just treat it like a manga with background music.
Anthony Foster
Welp, after having looked into this I guess I'll be skipping Evenicle and anything else by them. A shame, I had been wanting to get into Rance for a while now.
I just wanted to build a harem.
Adrian Thomas
Hey, aside from 4 rape scenes, 2 being unavoidable and the other 2 being punishments for being a bad player, Sengoku Rance is still a really great game. Art is really good as far as hgames go, too.
Connor Ortiz
It would be better with no rape scenes but I know that degeneracy is becoming more prominent now and I'm just gonna have to deal with this shit

Josiah Torres
Why do people play these?
Jack Robinson
Because the entire game isn't about rape
Bentley Nguyen
Yeah, but we've been over this. Outside of grotesque cucking garbage like Viper, hentai used to view rape as "surprise sex". The "NO/HYA~" bit for comical characters in anime when they are being hit-on is a reference to the "no is yes" thing that anime and hentai used to hold. A woman would be barely not into it at first but later she'd get into it. Then the "rapist" would finish and either do or say something goofy and things would be lighter than usual - or conversely she'd be his new squeeze. It's classic hentai logic. The only time rape felt like rape was when it was done by villains and that wasn't played up for sexual stimulation (outside of the aforementioned cucking NTR bilge).
These days hentai has followed a Viper RSR route, and worse, where "rape" is made to feel like rape. There's crying, bleeding, heartbreak and that tangible feeling of trauma which absolutely does not belong anywhere near your penis. It's gotten so bad that some anons even think Taimanin is what classic hentai logic used to be, but that's wrong. No girl ever gave shrill screams because she was gangraped so brutally she couldn't stand it anymore. You also bet your bitty there was never anything about having to get an abortion after being impregnated by the man she loved, only to then be immediately impregnated by demon worms and thereafter repeatedly gangraped in front of her useless loved one.
TL;DR Things have gotten provably worse all around for hentai and for VNs in general (at least, those which incorporate lewd). It's why other anons have mostly given up hentai altogether. Vicious NTR is the majority norm and it's sickening. As it's been said:It's like everyone made ShindoL the norm.
Don't Just enjoy the stupidity of it on its own. It's source is cuck flavored.
Ian Jenkins
I've been mislead.
Jason Cook
Meant "Don't." as in "don't ask"
Last I checked it's always Rance (Player) doing the raping, and it's more along the lines of the hentai logic I was just talking about. Mostly. As for why anyone plays it: It's basically Ys with an utterly inverted Adol. They also vary up the gameplay and story quite a lot in each installment if I recall right.
Charles Bell

Ayden Evans
Pic related Also, Taimanin Asagi 3. Whenever the player/reader is introduced to a character without any face/eyes in the classic "This Is You" art style, that's meant to be the insert of the player. Whenever the player is introduced to the character they'll be controlling for the most part, like Rance, then that's the insert for the player. In that VN I just mentioned, the face-less player insert is tricked into ruining his beloved ninja waifu's womb, transformed into a meatball cuck and forced to watch his ninjafu get raped pregnant (once by worms, that's not a failstate that's part of the narrative, she gives birth to worms after crying about her abortion being revealed to the meatball cuck she loves) and/or gangraped repeatedly and demon-tainted, and in the end he STAYS a meatball cuck, never once doing anything of value or rescuing his ninjafu with the power of the D - which used to be the way things went in hentai, but whatever we're NTR now. The player is literally made into a cuckball in one of the most grotesque ways I'd ever seen. Figures for that kind of series, but still egregious.
There's no bones about it. NTR is a fetish for cuckolds foremost. NTR is the most obvious evil. If hentai was put as Dante's Inferno, NTR would be locked away in the coldest reaches of the pit, alone, where its wings would continually cause a blizzard of blistering chill in the darkness.
Jayden Gonzalez
I never liked the addition of Kousuke (did anyone?), or the focus on him during the start of the game. Taimanin games already had kind of questionable pacing, so it sure as shit didn't need to spend time building up an obvious player stand-in nobody cared about just to completely fuck him over. Was it done specifically out of spite for their players? It reminds me of Cruel Magical Angel: Shion (which shares the director and a writer with TA3) which also seems to hold the player in open contempt, even if it doesn't reveal its hand until the very end.
Julian Howard
Well, I was about to post saying that I didn't finish the game but I was able to get to Epilogue after careful observation. I ended up unlocking 7 out of 10 dreams. I guess I should get the other 3 for the Best ending. It was a nice romp with the characters but not as exciting as the original game. I STILL haven't gotten an H-scene yet.
Anthony Perry
That's probably what got to me the most, which is saying something. I kept thinking "When is Forgettable gonna magic his way out of this and rescue the ninja with the D"? It'd have been the classic turn-about for this kind of story and would have given his character a point, but nope. It's very clearly trying to make YOU the cuckball. It's mocking you for getting off to the idea of your waifu going through a meat grinder of horrors, which is crazy to me. The thing is like some kind of uppity dominatrix cackling at its own audience. How can anyone enjoy this? Then I looked at some of the /hgg/ threads and it made sense. Those people exist, and they're the type of guys who'd probably get off to a woman laughing at them while naked.
Actually, come to think of it, I somewhat remember a poorly done anime on this thing. Never knew it came from a nukige. Artwork is rough. oof
Anyway, what happens in that one? I have a morbid curiosity now.
Liam Smith
What's this one?
John Gonzalez
Only if you self insert as the guy being cucked, like some kind of mega beta retard. The people writing it assume you have enough braincells to visualize yourself as the dude doing the NTRi. Apparently this is not so for the vast majority of low-T numales on the internet.
Landon Hill
Or just don't be pathetic enough to self-insert at all.
Levi Powell
Right? But you're asking for the impossible with these morons. They must self insert, and they must do so with the most pathetic loser in the medium so as not to be threatened. That's generally the cuckee.
Connor Fisher
Tsukihime Fun Disc - Kagetsu Touya, or something. Type-Moon shit. I haven't played Melty Blood yet. I don't think that's a VN though.
Evan Taylor
Well, user, At first it seems like you're getting a typical good ending. A few days have passed since the battle with the primary antagonist. Main Character and Shion have lots of sex at school and the future is looking bright. MC leaves ahead of Shion and as Shion leaves the school, the primary antagonist comes up behind her, slashes her throat, and leaves her bleeding out on the ground. The last image of the game is her saying the MC's name as she dies. It's not really a thematic ending or in service of any meaningful writing decision. You don't feel as if anything was leading up to it, that it was inevitable or that some kind of theme is coming full circle. I'm not sure how the anime goes, but the nukige really isn't actually all that dark, even if it is rather serious.
I should mention that the only other real ending in the game is the MC succumbing to his power, taking Shion and the teacher as his sex slaves and permanently killing off the main antagonist. That's it. Honestly, I would say it's a better ending in a few ways, but it's clearly not meant to be the true ending.
At least with Kousuke they can try and hide behind the claim that they're doing it for people who like NTR, but the main ending to Shion is just telling players to, in no uncertain terms, go fuck themselves. That's how I felt, at least. Sorry if some of that was a little rambling, I haven't really woken up yet. Overall, it's not a good game, even without that ending. There's little in the way of branching paths, and it's not particularly well-plotted. I still did like Shion herself, though. As much as you can really like a character from a game like this, anyways.
Brayden Gonzalez
Clearly you're not following the discussion, idiot: & You also missed the first pic I posted in that post you're replying to. But yes, that's why they make a player-insert character in the first place, so you don't insert as them. Makes sense.
Also, how does this apply to gangrape and monsters? Do you go full chuuni and pretend to be some body-hopper to get over the fact that the VN is mocking you for fapping to other [creatures] gangraping the girl you're hot for?
Face it, NTR is for people who want to ruin good things or for cuckolds.
Sound like the kind of guy who watches 3DPD porn doesn't recognize it's an industry of drug addicts built for ingraining cuckoldry into you.
Jack Price
>Actually being beta enough to self-insert as the self-insert character because you're supposed to
Christian Torres
>as Shion leaves the school, the primary antagonist comes up behind her, slashes her throat, and leaves her bleeding out on the ground. The last image of the game is her saying the MC's name as she dies. Unholy blazes. Wow, this writer has some severely deep seeded issues. And I thought TA3 was bad enough… It's so bad I almost wonder if the guy is some TokyoGov. psyop agent sent to infiltrate the nukige industry and drive men away from VNs altogether so they'd go out, potentially find some girl and make babies. The only other alternative is he's trying to be the Urobutcher of nukige, which can only be the most pathetic of existences.
No worries. I have to restrain my verbose disdain for TA3 every time I mention it so I know the feeling. Felt the same about Asagi. It's been said by lots of anons before but she's like Taki meets Dante. What a waste of a character, to be trapped in that kind of series, or at least that kind of title.
Still, I'm fairly sure Evenicle will be superior to both by leaps and bounds. AliceSoft isn't Lilith, so there's that going for it at least.
Brody Ramirez
I bet you self-insert as all the orcs at once, right user? You're so cool with your ultra-high level NTR taste. You must have the biggest swinger and slam 40k a day. I just can't keep up with you.
Elijah Scott
...
Brody White
>He's so beta he insists that all people must self-insert, like he does.
I actually don't have enough smugs and reaction images to adequately display my contempt for such a thing.
Isaac Thompson
Why are you guys so hell bent on thinking 2D girls are cheating on you? Have you forgotten that cuckolding means that you have to be in a relationship with the person who's cheating on you? It's gotten to the point where people now think that a girl sleeping with someone that's not you is you being a cuck when you don't even know the woman.
This is what happens when something becomes a buzzword. If you guys called it cheating then everyone would be on the same page of what this is. So can we get back to discussing VNs now?
Easton Jenkins
No, hey I get it. I'm just not man enough to enjoy cuckold hentai. Only the swollest of sick guys with the highest of T can truly have such a patrician taste as Shion: Cruel Magical Angel or Taimanin Asagi [3].
Bet the women at your workplace need to always carry a spare pair of panties just in case they catch you passing by and mess up their drawers at the sight of you. Truly you are the man of men.
Mason Flores
What's the matter with you? Who's talking about cheating? We're talking about NTR in the violent sense, watching the girl of your choice get raped and abused by some villain. In the broadest application of the term (as it's used in this context) that's what we're talking about. We're talking NTR. Please pay attention to the context of the discussion before flapping gums.
Ryder Reyes
In Eve Burst Error, are you supposed to finish Kojiroh's scenario before starting Marina's, or should you play through them simultaneously since they overlap quite a bit?
Hunter Allen
If you're even cucking yourself out of arguing and admitting I am 100% correct, no matter how facetiously, then it's no wonder you have such a seething hatred of NTR. All those self-insert protags must be like looking at a mirror, right champ?
Ethan Price
I'd like to know more about this, too.
Joseph Williams
Who's being facetious? I'm only admitting that it takes a real man to get off on watching the character he's attracted to get violently gangraped, impregnated, beaten and maybe murdered. I'll admit it, I'm such a low-T guy I couldn't remotely approach a chub when Asagi began bawling over how she had to murder the unborn child of her lover, who was turned into a living ball of agonized muscle to watch her get raped slug-pregnant.
I can't enjoy Taimanin because it's caliber requires a true, hotblooded man who can tap into that raw Y chromosome and strangle one out to a girl getting violently spit-roasted by futa, or a freakish slimey slug-man monster wringing himself dry into the main heroine's holes.
You win, man. You're too straight-edge for me. Can't imagine what it must be like to be you, just having every woman he meets start biting her lip with a hot breath. Your graduation ceremony must've left the auditorium seats glossy for weeks.
Nathaniel Allen
You can't finish their scenario in one go, you'll get to points where you can't proceed unless you switch characters.
Cooper Cruz
Yeahm I'm getting a bit sick of this autist screeching about Lilith and NTR in every thread. I think the best thing is for us just to ignore him.
Brandon Nelson
So anyone else have more?
Jack Bennett
It's hard to ignore >(44). He's desperate and lonely.
William Harris
By the way, found that Wonderlind-like VN I mentioned. Some user said this belonged to a series of VNs. Anyone know if the others are available or if we need to go through those to understand this one's world? mangagamer.org/sona-nyl/
Angel Cox
OP
Hunter Wright
How horrifying
Julian Kelly
To that user's defense, YOU were the one spewing how self inserting as the bull is totally-not-a-cuck thing to do. It's the same as inserting as the cuck AND, that user actually contributed VNs to the thread, unlike you. Got a (2) outta me, now fuck off back to /hgg/, or whatever cuckshed you crawled out of
Asher James
Oh, how frightening.
Xavier Bennett
pls stop
Caleb Brown
...
Henry Wilson
Illiterate
Julian Collins
Why can't we just agree that NTR is bad and discuss VN's?
Ethan Powell
...
Logan Rodriguez
I personally like the banter. If you ask me, NTR is only bad when you self-insert as the protagonist/main character. Some people are capable of disconnecting themselves from the material completely, which is (i hope) the reason why they tolerate NTR.
Michael Mitchell
>< I never said that >you imply
Wow great argument.
Ryan Bennett
I just don't like it because there is enough of that shit in the 3d world that I don't need to see cute anime girls getting hurt
John Baker
Any good otome VNs?
Eli Garcia
I understand completely. Stay pure, user.
Henry Collins
NTR is beta anime guys getting hurt though, not cute anime girls.
Evan Scott
Okay, I see you've hit your logic loop and have circled back. Who's your handler? They clearly need to monitor your computer time more closely. In the first and third quotes, you blatantly say that you should insert as the bull. But keep the ad hominem and misquoting up, hopefully cakejew or one of his cronies can give you a time out. :^)
Zachary Nguyen
not if they love the beta and are getting raped which is what most NTR is becoming
Jacob Robinson
NTR is "its rape but she likes it" twisted in the worst possible way.
Sebastian Lewis
Seems like most NTR is just a slut not satisfied with her beta lover.
Grayson Sanchez
What's the best way to play Fate/Stay Night? I want to try Realta Nua because I'm a huge sucker for romantic vanilla shit and Arturia's smile in the true ending gives me life, but I heard RN doesn't have the sex scenes in it. though I don't know how good they are.
Jace Parker
mind raped into submission != unsatisfied with current lover
Andrew Fisher
I'm pretty much in the same boat as you. No problem with inserting as the bull or just not inserting at all and simply watching the proceedings. Then there's things like Taimanin Asagi 3, which even though you're supposed to insert as the cuck doesn't really feel like NTR to me. I think it's because Asagi already spent the first two games getting the shit raped out of her so it's not really anything new, it's just another typical day for her. I just disconnect myself and enjoy the continued adventures of Asagi the walking rapetoy.
Carter Price
Typically, the girls actually love it. They aren't being hurt in any way, unless you dig way deep into Shindol territory with drugs and degredation and shit.
I in no way, shape, or form "blatantly say" that you should self-insert in either of those quotes, or indeed, in this entire thread. That you deliberately lie, cry out ad hom (ironic after every single post has you actually doing so,) and have resorted to calling to the higher authority like the base bitchboy you are tells me all I need to know.
It's no wonder you're so buttmad about NTR. You're the most cucked faggot here if you can't even handle the simple bantz.
Jose Martinez
2d girls crying as they get pinned down and raped is not the same as doing a casual hookup with a stranger
Wyatt Johnson
There is a restoration patch that puts the sex scene back in and they are optional, i heard they are pretty bad in a comical way. It also uncucks the Realta nua script as it was re translated.
Tyler Sullivan
...
Thomas Robinson
Euphoria was terrible and a horrible attempt at making zero escape a porn game. Not only that but sex scenes dont go well with tension it only made the experience hilarious or awkward
Ethan Lee
Thanks for the rare Ai, I guess.
Joshua Fisher
Because anons think garbage like this is okay and for some reason feel compelled to defend NTR and deflect fundamental facts about it and its dominant audience by projecting cuckoldry onto the critics.
I'm ready to start talking about Gahkthun because it looks really interesting and the artwork is slick, but you see how the Chad Thundercuck needs to keep it going? He's got 13 posts and only two of them are about a VN.
It's very apparent that the case is closed. Honestly it's been closed ever since most hentai's taken the black shot to the vein and lost the goofy luster it once had. NTR is for cucks and cucks in denial, or for people who get off to seeing nice things get ruined. I find it to be that last step beyond basic gangbang/prostitution fetish, where the "totally alpha" cuckman shares his woman with other guys either for a profit or because it turns him on. Yeah, because it's real alpha to pop a tower over seeing a woman get smeared in other men's paint.
You have to follow the conversation closer and looking at the examples being given. This isn't hentai logic secret-sluts like it used to be. This is Viper/Taimanin/Shion-tier NTR we're talking about, what most NTR has become and what most hentai manga and doujinshi has already adopted.
No user come on. You don't want to see a Anime Rotherham?
Nathaniel Jackson
I've seen that second pic before, but it never fails to make me feel like shit.
Gabriel Smith
There are thousands upon thousands of porn boards on this site. Could you all please go argue about your fetishes on one of those instead of shitting up Holla Forums(even more) with them?
Thanks.
Wyatt Ramirez
I wish we could go back to the KEY nakige's and just be sad over a good story instead of being sad over seeing girls getting raped and tortured
Nathaniel Myers
I liked it for the Nemu and the divergent plot twists. That thing about the cult was ridiculous but just realistic enough to get to me. The ending really needed a rewrite, though, since it's ultimately so limp and doesn't make a lot of sense. You have a point, though, about how it can be difficult to enjoy H when you're got a gun to your head.
Isaac Rogers
I assume you also have a problem with GG threads, LOL threads, waifu threads, 4am threads, ROB threads, et al.? If not, neck yourself.
Tyler Gray
I was discussing a tangentially related topic that you brought up. And, in fact, keep bringing up. Both in this thread, and all others. You're even keeping it going right there in that very post, by dogmatically posting your retarded and unsubstantiated opinion that everyone and their mom has seen 99999999999 times by now since you won't stop fucking posting it.
Sebastian Hall
I get that this NTR/cuck debate is really important, but can someone please respond?
Henry Bailey
That's not even a rare, fuckwit. Still want you to pontificate on how cuckoldry is cool and good, though. If you are so sure that NTR is acceptable, then explaining your passion for said genre should be easy, no? And since we want to nitpick here Please, user, I can only shitpost so much without you giving me a proper response
Zachary Walker
Same here, mate.
Speaking of, anyone know if Planetarian is any good?
Benjamin Rivera
wow-wee. can someone please remove this fat sack of shit, he clearly hates video games Twelve game overs. One for each tribe of Israel!
Grayson Carter
Collar X Malice I'm surprised you haven't see us mention this already.
Ethan Howard
If not liking super grimdark, traumatic (for the girls), unavoidable rape scenes which may also involve niggers or monsters makes me insecure, then call me Equifax. I'm okay with shocking things like Euphoria and Starless existing by themselves, but the overall trend is a lot like the flood of shitty edgy comics from the 90s, and it gives us shit like Maggot Baits.
Julian James
It all started when someone accused ROBFag of using lebbit spacing.
Matthew Phillips
I thought It was good
Lucas Rivera
Is that a joke? Planetarian is like one of the most beloved VNs in the fucking medium.
Thomas Rogers
...
Angel Gomez
Well, looks like it's time for me to get caught up on some goodness, then.
Henry Gray
It's good if you haven't played a lot of Key games. Like all their other stuff, it piles on misery for the sake of piling on misery, but at least the tone doesn't completely clash with the setting like in other Key games. If you've played a lot of other Key games, you might not see what the big deal is.
Jose Clark
Thank god ROBFag is dead and gone As far as I can tell, pls i hope i am not wrong. May he be forgotten as quickly as possible. He was a horrible autistic dreg back in 08-09. He didnt have as many people fanboying him as after he moved to cakejew's dungeon. Makes me wonder if he was using VPNS for a lot of posts, I wouldn't put it past him. But the worst tripfag from the old days I had the displeasure of dealing with was [/spoiler]Walter Joseph Kovacs/Lanced Jack.[/spoiler]
Caleb Barnes
Lots of people seemed to like Code: Realize. Basically look at the VN's released on Vita in English recently and most of those were well-received. Seems like at least half of them are otome.
Xavier Mitchell
Never played any to my knowledge, TripsAnon, though now I'm kinda cautious about going into a story that's summarized as
Oh wait a minute, they did Clannad? Nevermind. I don't need my heart raped again.
Thomas Perez
I think Kanon has been the best KEY work and I think they are working on Angel Beats right now but im not sure
Hunter Myers
RIP, I'll make sure to add it to my list of vita games for when I finally get a vita. Any good ones on PC/3DS? I don't come into the VN threads often and stuff like this current autism debate certainly doesn't help encourage me to check it out more often.
I guess I really should invest in a vita at some point.
Brandon Allen
Funny how the Vita only started paying off as a Nip machine later in is lifetime, after Sony has basically forgotten about it. But that's for another thread. Good advice, though. I heard Period Cube was alright, too, but CxM just hits me the right way. Must be the detective drama and cigs. Reminds me of Yakuza in a way.
Charles Lee
user you may think that but soon you will want another good story and be lured into the KEY games only to have your soul crushed by misery and also I thought killing off both his wife and daughter was going too far
Logan Cox
This thread reminds me of that obnoxious autistic vanillafag on /h/ who would go into Kuroinu threads and screech about how terrible rape is and how Chloe was his waifu and how he was going to save her and love her tenderly and he would link a bunch of laughably godawful Kuroinu fanfics about Naruto saving the princesses and shit. Everyone called him out for being an annoying stupid faggot and he got incredibly butthurt about it.
Why the fuck do vanillafags do shit like this? Do you see people into more hardcore BAD END type stuff shitting on vanilla games at all? If they know they hate darker subject matter then why the fuck are they playing these games? Could this autistic screeching about how much they hate this stuff be a way to get rid of the shame they got from actually enjoying it?
Aaron Perez
Kanon was good, but Clannad was the real masterpiece in my eyes. Angel beats was really mediocre, and felt like a waste of fun characters. Maybe they can do more with the VN, but I worry that they will try too hard to stick to the existing setting and scenario used in the shitty anime. Did they get the memo that Angel Beats was a shit anime, or did otakucks eat it up and boost sales?
Owen Richardson
Only VN I know of on 3DS is this hilariously pathetic piece. Can't think of any Otome on PC that isn't touched via Steam. I think MangaGamer has something that's like an Otome/Nukige blend called Fashioning Little Miss Lonesome which is a funny game, from what I hear.
Robert Collins
Eh, it happens. We haven't had a real Autismo argument in a while so it's to be expected, especially in this medium. Just ignore the storm and post anyway.
Kayden Lopez
I think normalfags ate it up since it was from KEY but I agree clannad was good but there was just a bit too much suffering that I kinda felt bad for all the characters while crying
Lucas Perry
Don't act like the other side isn't responsible for their fair share of autists pushing their fetishes on everyone. Look at all of the faggots who intentionally change skin colors to black or artists who make a certain waifu deepthroat horse cock. Or look at Holla Forums
Liam Allen
If you're the kind of NTRfag that gets off to, and is compelled to defend, garbage like Shion or Taimanin then this is the coal calling the kettle black. Need I remind you of the first pic here
Please don't.
Brandon Carter
That being said, though, I need proof this autist exists. I have to see the caps of him going on and on about rescuing his waifu via fanction. That's amazing.
Nathaniel Wood
Loved it, one of my favorites. The OVA adaptation was pretty faithfully done as well, I would recommend it. I didn't like the movie they did though since I didn't care about any of the new characters and I would have done the ending differently.
Mason Myers
Emotional gut reaction, duh.
Brandon Morgan
Is it like Clannad or does it have an ending that won't scrape the pulp from my heart?
Alexander Brooks
It won't emotionally rape you like clannad did don't worry
Lincoln Hughes
Youre literally asking to be spoiled, just go fucking read it its short as shit.
Joshua Cook
No, I was looking for a simple, undetailed answer.
Alright, thanks. Need to give it a shot
Ayden Peterson
This sounds interesting, tell me more.
Nolan Hill
>>>/pone/ is that way, dont let the door hit you on the way out! ;^)
Ryan Campbell
Wishful thinking. He will come back with another one of his shitty attention whoring threads, and Mark will defend it every time.
Hudson Davis
No caps unfortunately. Forgot to mention this was on halfchan /h/, not here. There hasn't been a Kuroinu thread on there for a while so no idea if he is still around. You can probably find a couple of the threads archived on yuki.la
Brody Gonzalez
I wish some global hotpocket or jim would permaban ROBfag, so that cakecuck can't revoke it. I would love to see the screeching from that filthy yid. Almost as good as each meta thread where he gets btfo, or the twelve game overs.
Grayson Jackson
Yes, pretty god. Can get it done in one sitting, it isn't that long.
Brandon Foster
I see no problem with this. Brown 2D is great.
Most likely talking about Dragon Quest V.
Blake Jackson
post more kuro
Eli Gonzalez
That reminds me. Code Realize is getting an anime this fall season. But I'm not into shoujos myself so it's a skip for me.
This artist does some great Kuro art and you can easily reverse image search his works. I'll probably never watch this show but maybe I'll finish the rest of the manga. Not as lewd as I thought it was going to be but I think the humor is the best part. Though there's much better stuff out there.
Christopher Garcia
Why are there so few good brown girls in VNs?
Austin Mitchell
Away with you
Alexander Cruz
2d brown is a tan unless otherwise stated.
Kevin Russell
I think it's simply many people would rather draw lighter skinned characters and maybe a tan one here and there. Brown girls are usually just dark elves.
2D is not the same as 3D. Also brown girls might as well be palette swaps for the most part.
Austin Rogers
I want Rob back just because of you you massive faggot
Brody Thomas
You really need to go >>>/back/ holy shit
Jackson Hughes
Welp. This just makes it easier to know who to filter.
Charles Morgan
Can we just discuss VNs? Dang it Ron Paul comes out today/tomorrow.
Landon Edwards
How are those games? Is there a good amount of mystery stuff or is it all teen drama and SoL shenanigans? How much did NISA butcher the translation?
Parker Wright
Like the artstyle and the murder/class trial that results. First one has a solid mystery to it and No.2 is abit weaker but has some good characters. There comes a full moon once in awhile because NISA hasn't butchered that badly. They have taken a few liberties like "Genocide Jill" but I can live with it.
Jason Clark
Hello brogrief 12 game overs
Edgy teen fanfiction writing trying to take a stab at plutocracy/upper class adults. Pirate under all circumstances, not worth a red cent.
Alexander Clark
This is almost the exact same thing that happened with the PSP. When western devs abandoned the system after the first year, the Japanese devs saw the PSP as a way to put out lower budget games that would have been shit on just based on graphics if they had been released on the PS3. The result was that it became the go to system for smaller Japanese developers. The Vita would have ended up the same way if only the PS4 hadn't been so easy to program for and people so desperate for anything with even passable gameplay that they tolerate the PS4's library being comprised largely of Vita ports.
Nolan Reyes
(checked) Worth a pirate for the waifus, the art style, and the atmosphere. The writing isn't too stellar.
If there's one thing the Japanese are good at, it's padding things out. I tend to go though VNs pretty slowly so it often takes me months to get through one.
Loli versions of lewd characters are always great.
Brayden Long
I'm surprised YU-NO has more words than Fate/Stay Night. Fate seemed way more overly verbose.
Parker Brooks
Meant script. Somehow listening to music made me replace script with soundtrack.
I read through them pretty casually so it takes me ages as well. At this point I don't have much of a reason to buy games for the rest of the year. I have too many games under my belt and visual novels take up even more time.
Liam Flores
Woah user what's your problem? You can't just go around casually posting Urushihara girls like that.
Luke Hill
user, I have some bad news.
Hakuoki. It's on everything.
Luke Cooper
WHAT IS THIS?!
This is why actual weebs are cancer. Japan is horrific. This is obscene. No country with a legal system this asinine has any right to whinge about "muh pride". WHITE PIGGU should go home! People have a higher chance of not getting shot in the chest in Detroit than a man has a shot at a fair trial in Japan.
Lincoln Robinson
Wait a minute. Wait a MINUTE This makes so much sense now! I remember being so confused about Persona 4's ending with Adachi and the confession bit. And all those J-Drama a friend of mine showed me where the suspects were interrogated for so long without any legal representation. I thought it was just dumb cop drama like in the States, but nope. And Death Note's Kira thought the Japanese legal system was too soft?
No wonder these people don't want firearms. If they so much as scratch themselves they can be abducted and coerced into signing away their entire life. How could a nation like this remotely deal with the inherent rights of firearm owners when these kooks can't even handle basic rights to begin with?
…No jury. I still can't believe it. Even courts in African countries have juries. Then again maybe that's what Japan needed, not two nukes but just a prolonged apartheid to set things straight.
Gabriel Sanchez
Haven't you ever played Phoenix Wright?
Asher Gomez
You mean the games where they put a gorilla on the stand and use superpowers? Yeah, I did. Though honestly the idea that PW was a scathing remark on Japan's legal system always escaped me until now.
Aaron Howard
Hate to burst your Japan hate bubble, but all of that kind of shit takes place in countries most people consider civilized. You should probably watch the movie In the Name of the Father.
Jonathan Evans
>After running around for a minute I find the exit. A ward prevents you from leaving. OH SHIT
This game is pretty fun.
Samuel Robinson
Burgers at least got something superior to their asinine "peers", then.
Sounds like you can get up to some real horror shows in that game if you take a wrong turn.
Levi Anderson
I know that feel. The boss was piss easy, but I was NOT expecting the subsequent forced Nightmare fight at all. Thankfully that guy was pretty easy. A quick bit of grinding for a level on Red and I was on my way.
Lost an hour and a half of progress. I forgot my rabbit hole fam. Don't make my mistake and just spend that 1 SP.
Owen Thompson
...
Ayden Gomez
>oops, we accidentally got the wrong people
But the squinty demon didn't mention anything about, you know, not coercing/forcing admissions of guilt and trying to solve every case by wringing suspects of a forced confession - suspects who are "suspects" because they just so happened to be in a certain vicinity and have a pulse. Adversarial as the Burger system is, at least we don't have to deal with this on a national, institutionalized and systemic level.
Isaac Howard
AAAGH Alicia is such a qt I can't stand it! Also, wow she actually has backstory and personality. I'd almost forgotten what that was like after the last couple vns I played were nothing more than character archetypes.
William Hughes
Alright, I think I messed up and locked myself out of Alicia's ending though it seems to be going well with Clare. The guide I'm following isn't any help, either.
Jason Campbell
Nonsense. You own an anonymous image board.
Owen Sanders
Just finished Rewrite and Dies Irae, both were good but nothing truly special, my only complain is the MCs were shit, the true endings on both are lackluster and Dies Irae felt quite underwhelming towards the end on all routes.

Hold the fuck up. Do you know Japanese, or did it get translated while I was under a proverbial rock?
Jace Murphy

Landon White

Shitposting aside. He has actually just finished the translation.
>To Heart 2 is a legend in the visual novel history thanks to nailing the donkan harem protagonist genre while it was still in evolution with 11 girls and 9 routes to master. It has almost more tropes than any series ever, see just as bad as buzzfeed, why are you even linking to this site? use allthetropes.orain.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VisualNovel/ToHeart2 (may contain minor spoilers), great VAs, and girl personalities to fit most peoples' tastes. Some of the heroines surprisingly do have the ability to polarise people so don't expect to love all of them but when they suit your taste, they have nailed them in this. Girl next door, little sister figure, big sister figure, competitive tsundere, twins deredere/tsundere, kansai-ben, mysterious kuudere, genki girl, romantic, quiet loveable, and reserved senpai.
OH! okay, that's interesting. Gotta check this out. Wait, this is just the translation patch? Not the game+ translation? Why not both?
I once heard that censored hentai and porn was implemented so that the Yakuza in control of certain branches of Japanese government could have yet another source of perpetual revenue with underground illicit "decensored" porn. That's as close to a reason for this as anything.
Nolan James
It's common for translators to not include the full game and encourage people to buy an official copy. Just patch the game I linked in the second post. I tested it and it works fine so far.
Nathan Young
You mean the one in the MEGA? Alright then. Also, what happened with Brave Soul's Alicia Route? I rescued Clare from the dragon form and now Alicia just repeats how she got her sister back because she was with Mr.Swordsman-sama-dono. I got Clare's two H scenes so I'm pretty sure I can get her ending, but when I reload to a save before that I still can't get closer to Alicia. Last time I spoke with her she was pretending to be drunk and the idiot protag blurted out how he was thinking of Moon Goddess even when Alicia was right next to him. She doesn't seem upset but she's almost lobotomized, just repeating the same thing over and over. Is it that you can't do Alicia's route if you rescue the sister?
I have a save from before that but forget trying to go through those last few dungeons. The mapless dungeon crawling is insufferable as it is. I'm not going through all that again.

Do you think there will ever be an advancement in technology where mosaic censorship can be reversed? I'd put that technological advancement up there with flying cars and self-lacing shoes.
Benjamin Thompson
No idea why linked only the patch and nyaa.si. Here's a link for the prepatched ver.
That's what was provide in the Reddit thread. I didn't bother checking for a prepatched version but thanks. I was just about to put it on MEGA and Nyaa myself.
Juan Ortiz
Come to think of it, it shouldn't be that difficult. If someone focused on a machine learning algorithm, it could probably learn to redraw the mosaic eventually.
We already have things that would be considered CSI magic tricks some fifteen years ago like content-aware deletion for instance.
Joshua Collins
Yeah, once Japan gets rid of that ridiculous law, devs can just patch their games with the original uncensored images.
Alexander Moore
How the hell would they get rid of that law?

AliceSoft fucked shit up by continuing to release patches more than a year afterward which changed offsets; which took me literal months to figure out how the fuck to get some shit working. I stopped for like 2 years at that point. Finally went back last December and redid the work I'd done in the first place for the last patch. Did a few more scenes but it is really tedious trying to play through to see who is actually speaking for the translation; because of all the side events you can only see once per playthrough.

Maybe when all the old farts die someone will be brave enough to challenge it. It's probably unconstitutional anyway.
Christian Lee
Isn't that because her best friend is a demon?
Henry Russell
So what I'm getting is, "Good news, I've managed to succeed despite AliceSoft being utter twits"
Adam Lewis
I'm going to do a vanilla VN but if you act like a faggot instead of a man you will get cucked. Is this fair?
Jayden Fisher
Yes, beta orbiters must be faced with reality
Julian Reed
Not only that but her father was a super strict religious nut who wouldn't let her do anything a kid should be doing. Then personified Hermit Purple came and corrupted her. Ever since then shes been an edgy futa cursing others with her dick.
The curvy demon on loli kissing scene is still the best thing I got out of this VN so far.
Then it's not vanilla. Also are you adding in NTR because you like it or only to spite people?
Owen Ortiz
Did her biblethumping dad rape her? I played the raw version when it came out and my nip level wasn't high enough to understand it yet.
Parker Hernandez
He didn't rape her, he just kept her locked up in her room most of the time and didn't allow her to have friends or do anything fun.
Thomas Rogers
Any translators in here who actually don't speak moon? How hard is it do to?
Julian Kelly
Thanks for clearing it up. What about that bonus scene with an obscured character having sex with her that unlocks after the end of the game? Was that the demon?
Jackson Cox
wat
Isaiah Campbell
I'm thinking he's asking people who translate things that aren't in Japanese.
Jace Brooks
Pretty sure he means machine translation.
William Powell
Something similar just happened to me.
Not today fucker. This game has a bunch of RNG to keep you on your toes but you they give you options to have influence on it. Corruption levels are a "chance" to go Blood Skelter and you don't simply turn from getting too corrupted so thinking you can hold off for a while doesn't always help. Also the defend command is very powerful in this game. You don't just take half damage from what I'm seeing.
