Previous thread: >>14695959
This thread is for the discussion of untranslated Japanese visual novels.
What are you playing? What are you looking forward to? What have you finished? You know the drill.
>>14719336
What an unusual pose.

What is Nagi-chan afraid of?
How long have you guys actually been reading untranslated visual novels?
Two years here.
>>14719794
11 months
>>14719794
4-6 years. Prior to that I've read translated stuff since about 2002
>>14719794
Since 2012, so 4-5 years I guess. I was spamming MangaGamer's blog for Shin koihime musou, in the end they got bored of it and said they couldn't license it so they cant release, at least in the near future -it happened at the around of halfway 2011, dont remember the exact date- With that rage I started working on japanese with all my free time, and started reading the game at the picture date. I was pretty slow and it took two months though. Hell I'm still keeping the game in my hdd.
>>14719794
I read my first one in 2008 (Clannad), but only started reading regularly in 2011.
>>14719874
Clannad was my first one too. I wasn't very serious about it back then and took long breaks reading it on and off. It took me over a year to finish all routes.
>>14717484
Are you the person who asked? Because he said "exclusive or not."
and no one cares about your persona/monhan clone
>>14719794
3 years or so.
>>14719794
if you just take the time between my first and latest, five years since 2010.
but I've probably read less VNs than 90% of this thread. My started to completed ratio is probably something like 1:7, I drop things very easily and I didn't read anything in 2014
>>14719794
Since may 2013.
Damn, only now realized its 3 years already. Time sure flies fast.
>>14720483
>7:1
whoops
>>14719794
6 years as of this month.
Thanks for all the vita recommendations in the last thread, it's very appreciated.

I hope it turns out good, I really liked fairytale requiem which was also by a new liar soft writer, so it gives me hopes.
https://omochikaeri.wordpress.com/2016/02/06/february-2016-eroge-releases/
>>14721104
The writer for Jeanne isn't new, he's from 遊演体 like most Liar/raiL writers
>>14721125
Hell I had just read it.
Tsuminohi for me, the trial was really like yorino which I liked a lot last year.
I'd do otome riron but I'm so tired of the series at this point, didn't particularly enjoy tsuriotsu 2 either.
Maybe the new harukaze too, the art seems better than their last game which is a plus, especially the necks.
What happened with the PC port of the Himawari remake? has it been delayed?
>>14721141
Nope, still to be released next week.
>>14721125
ahah oh wow fortissimo is still going on?
>>14721444
I seriously wonder who the hell still buys it. I know muvluv has some fans who doesn't care about the product itself as long as there is a muvluv word in the title, but never heard anything similiar about fortissimo.

It's not you. Every month is the worst
>>14722031
About the same as this month, really.

She's pretty cute.
>>14719794
I don't read untranslated VNs.
>>14722031
Better than this month at least. If you're looking for comedy noratoto trial was pretty funny.
The interface in Tokyo Necro is so fucking obnoxious that I'm tempted to drop the game because of it. It takes like 3 minutes to even load up the game.
>>14722649
Solution: never close it until you finish it.
>>14710548
>>14710543
For me the appeal and why BISHOP is special is because its an intimate break game.
I really dislike girl sharing so to me most minbreak games sucks because the MC wants rather make the girl a cumslut than his personal slave. Most MB VNs relies on the main guy using others to do the mindbreak for him which gets stale really quick.
Also like to name my MC which adds to the immersion.
I really think BISHOP artist Oonari fits really well for that kind of games and is one of the best artists for that genre.
Also the soundtrack is very strong in those games and i like the sex sounds.
>>14722872
That counts as a costume? she's naked
Is there any /jp/ archive alternative for Warosu? I'd look there if it wasn't dead since I assume this has been asked before already:
Is there any recommended order or routes I should skip in Nanairo Reincarnation?
>>14723156
Nanairo - definitely do the true route (the schoolgirl) first. The other ones are more... nukige-esque and less serious. Still worthwhile, though, just not first.
>>14722872
>I really dislike girl sharing
I enjoy it in nukige, since it's not like I can develop an emotional connection to sluts anyway. Might as well go all the way if you're going to slut someone up.
>>14723197
There's a difference between making a girl a pervert (someone who is addicted to / loves sex) and making a girl a slut (someone who fucks a lot of people).
>>14723156
Only has about 400k posts worth of archive but https://4ch.be/jp/
http://blog.livedoor.jp/anrism/archives/47741937.html
Someone actually bought it.
>>14723380
I guess there is something fun about drinking with old dudes
>>14723205
I would reverse those definitions
>>14723393
Well... you would be wrong.
What happened to Romeo? The Kouya trial and his new LN are some of the most mediocre things I've read in ages.
>>14723687
Nothing happened to him. He's always been mediocre.
>>14723687
Romeo has never had public appeal. That's why he's still famous for his curse (KID/Regista/ruf/FlyingShine/etc...).
I suppose we'll see Kouya flop as well but still be well-regarded in general, such are the fates of Romeo works. Time will tell.
>>14723687
Then you must be blind as the people blindly praising him or comparing him with one-trick pony doujin writers.
>>14723687
At one time, you've got it, and then you lose it, and it's gone forever.
>>14723687
I liked both Shokomeza trial and Ken to Mahou no Fantasy.
Do any of you feel jaded on VNs? What would it take for you to truly enjoy something? A solid take on a common idea? Something truly novel? Bringing back features discarded by time from the genre?
>>14723156
I'd do Kotori route first for the most impact. The order for other routes doesn't really matter.
>>14723834
Good writing. It sounds pretentious of me but there are in general two kinds of writers for me: those I find myself nodding along to and actually thinking about many of their lines, and those who are just so dull and uninspired their lines become a means to an end (i.e. cool battle plot or ecchi or some such). I'm getting really jaded with VNs with writers of the second kind. Even with really good VNs, I can't bring myself to tolerate dull writing, and end up spending the whole time wanting to read something else. With "real" books this rarely matters, because thanks to editing, plots can carry them even with dull writing, but with VNs and their padding/huge lengths, it becomes intolerable. At least thats how I figure it anyway.
I don't think common routes need any special takes, or new settings, or bringing back old features (though more VNs implementing game systems would not be unwelcome). VNs are novels, what they need for me is simply good writing. Well, actually, about the game system, dating sims like Tokimeki Memorial and JRPGs like, uh, Sol Trigger can be fun despite poor writing thanks to their gameplay, so perhaps there's an idea there. Replace all padding with JRPG systems. Haha.
>>14723834
elements that aid the escapism. I think VN is not something you should play every day of the week. instead you should play one or two titles that you are interested at the moment, take a long break and play again next month.
at the end of the day the quality of an average VN is not gonna blow your mind. the unique entertainment it provides is what should matter.
>>14724215
What are your examples for the former and latter type of writers?
>>14724247
I was thinking of Dostoevsky when I wrote that post, I haven't actually read a really good amount of VNs yet, however I like what I've read of all the meme-level authors such as, you guessed it, Romeo, Masada, etc etc. I also enjoy the line-by-line pacing of writing in novels such as those written by Watanabe Ryouichi and Mareni, those two keep me entertained throughout. I would be delighted if I could provide names that wouldn't make me look like a memester but sorry, not that well read yet. As for the latter type, you can find them everywhere. It's be cheap to point to moege since no one expects anything from them, so in terms of VNs that actually tried to have a good plot, Hatsumira and Gun Knight Girl are both VNs with truly dull and truly poorly paced, the worst of both worlds.
>>14723834
I want nothing special, just interesting theme, good characters, entertaining story etc. No copy paste, no padding.
Writers seem to have no freedom at all, only know how many characters they need to shit out for the deadline.
>>14723834
I enjoy anything that keeps me entertained overall, but I have a special love for things that attempt to break or fuck around with patterns, stereotypes or the medium. Any attempt at creativity and novelty, basically. I like my mind being blown. It's why denpa and metafiction are my favorite genres. Of course I'm in a bad position because there's very little of it, but I enjoy most scenarioge and charage anyway.
It turns out one of my CDs off of Suruga-ya was actually an eroge.
Its a Touhou eroge made around 2004, featuring primarily the cast of EoSD.

That's pretty cool, thanks.
Not sure if I liked this scene or thought it was stupid.
>>14724310
Iam curios, what's your list of " good written " games?
>>14723687
Ken to Mahou no Fantasy was great you faggot.
The only problem here is your lack of taste
>>14725180
Is this where he lists some of his favorites and people nitpick some title that's not so well regarded just to invalidate his post?
>>14725446
Yes.
>>14725358
It's generic anime 101. At least Jintai had the writing going for it.
>>14725546
>It's generic anime 101
Good job showing you didn't read it
>>14725180
Alright, I'll bite.
Higurashi and Higanbana are top tier when it comes to quality writing in VNs. Both have great pacing with alternating calm and exciting sequences, well fleshed-out characters with complex motivations, and make use of their medium to create mood by using all sorts of stylistic devices, making creative use of backgrounds, soundeffects and employing multiperspectivist storytelling and unreliable narrators where it makes sense. I haven't really been able to find anything else on that level though. For the most part VN writers seem to be content with just doing the same shit everyone else does.
When you look at highly regarded VNs like Steins;Gate, the Fate series or the infinity series they are pretty good examples of flat, or at least underdeveloped characters, terrible pacing and 'huge stretches of nothing', which rely on some kind of gimmick to keep the reader interested.
>>14725678
>Higurashi and Higanbana are top tier when it comes to quality writing in VNs
Sorry but no
I'm not the type to nitpick to other people taste but you really had to start with R07?
Seriously?
>>14725678
Lots of fancy words you used onii-sama.
>>14725685
Come on, it's pretty obvious someone else completely replied to that post.
>>14719336
source?
>>14725678
Higurashi well paced? You're not serious are you?
It has huge ammounts of boring scenes that just drag on and on, same with Umineko.
Pacing is R07's weakest point.
>>14725678
And here I expected something serious. Nice bait I guess.
>>14726310
>Pacing is R07's weakest point.
There is also the fact that he like repeating the same shit 5 times in the same paragraph
Or that he has no vocabulary and overuse ellipsis like no one business
Or that all his stories are based on some extremely stupid shit like parasites or the maid is the butler is the witch
Honestly I would have a hard time thinking of some good points, even the unreliable narrator business he overuses because it's the easy to make a twist shit he uses badly, Lucia's route in Rewrite for example where he downright lie to the reader for no reason
>>14725685
>>14726249
>>14726352
That's not me guys.
I think it's pretty reasonable to expect a good author to be fairly consistent in producing good VNs, so there's no need to specifically list good VNs, especially when the authors I listed have so many well-known works.
>>14725546
There are plenty of valid reasons to dislike Kentoma (I wasn't a fan myself) but this is not one of them. You have plenty of reviews on Amazon complaining about how it doesn't follow LN conventions and feels like a regular novel instead. How do you figure it was "generic anime 101"?
Why would you make a post like this knowing you were going to get ridiculed?
Anyone played Imouto no Seiiki?
Do you need to play Kanojo no Seiiki?
Anyone else playing this? Pretty good for a cucking simulator.
>>14727417
There was very pissed review on EGS claiming its not even good NTR.
Whole cockblocking thing from main heroine sounds terrible.
>>14727441
>its not even good NTR.
Anyone who says that clearly didn't read the first two games. NTR was barely given attention, thats simply not the kind of series Tsuma Migui is. The appeal is front and center slutty milfs, and yes "slutty" as in fucks a lot of dudes. The appeal is not nuanced or even meaningful NTR.
>>14727441
It's optional, you can remove all NTR.
>>14727417
Downloaded it but haven't got a chance to play it yet.
Is the NTR comparable to Oyako Rankan?
>>14727465
No idea, I don't play to lose.
>>14727417
You're the one doing the cucking there right?
I think I'll try the game later.
>>14727417
So do you meet the guys you cuck or what?
If you don't meet the guy you're cucking or their reaction, that sounds boring IMO
>>14727755
In TM1 your character never meets the husband, and the only reaction when he finds out is punching his wife in the face.
>>14727722
Yeah, NTR is avoidable if you play right and even optional.
>>14727755
You meet them all the time
Okay, so, Sakura no Uta. When does it start getting good and is Rin as boring as she looks?
>>14727769
Never and yes.
>>14727769
>When does it start getting good
I asked myself that right up until I read some spoilers and dropped it.
>>14727769
Are you in the first chaper?
It does get good, yes, although Makoto's route is a drag.
Rin might like you or not, I don't know at what point of the game you are.
But she's not boring.
>>14727789
>Reading spoilers of Sakura no Uta
What does that achieve? The plot isn't even important, I don't think a few spoilers would ruin the game for anyone.
>>14727793
Yes, first chapter. I haven't even run across the last heroine or the lesbian. I'm just not one for the whole childhood friend thing or characters who are as docile as she seems. And the most common way for a character to not be as docile as they seem is to be a yandere which is even worse. Taking that into account, she gets better eventually?
>>14727801
Oh wait, last heroine girl arrived.
>>14727765
>punching his wife in the face
Do the husbands find out in the other games too? I'll probably pick it up for some quick fun.
>>14727798
I just wanted to make sure I was not going to miss anything, I was going to drop it anyways because none of the girls really caught my eye.
>The plot isn't even important
My point exactly.
>>14727808
The very first scene of the second chapter is where shit start to get good.
Makoto's route is boring but everything after that is gold
Just played 人間デブリ～コンナジブンニダレガシタ？～ from Elf.
It's actually really good in both faps and story.
Sora nee-san was much better than her sister though
>>14727809
No clue. I read TM1 to get ready for 3 but 1 was so disappointing (in the sense that NTR was barely given any focus) that I didn't move on to 2 or 3.
>>14727801
She's still docile but she'sa horny closet pervertand her interactions with Naoya get pretty amusing based on that, but it still depends on if you personally find that and the dialogues funny.
it doesn't drag on at least, Rin's route isn't long.
>>14727397
There's not a whole lot of need to play them in order. They're mostly nukige after all.
>>14727824
Alright. I've put up with much worse than this for much longer than just a single heroine route, so I can wait that long.
>>14727840
Gotcha, i'll just go for 3 then.
>>14727846
The first chapter isn't that long you won't have to put up for long, the second chapter is like twice longer and good throughout, the individual routes start after that
>>14723186
>>14723329
>>14724031
Thanks, just played through the canon ending. It's been a while since a game hooked me enough to finish it in just a few sittings. I ended upguessing the main twist almost from the beginning, but it was nonetheless an entertaining ride. Excellent pacing.
I originally picked up this game because Akeiro Kaikitan's OP seemed interesting and I wanted to play through the prequel first, and while the H and SoL scenes in this route weren't too abundant I'm not sure if I'm ready to play the others, at least not right after this one if they don't have a similaremotional payoff at the end.
>>14727875
Nanairo in my opinion is a masterpiece of pacing: constantly introducing new characters and moving the main plot along with barely any padding. It's a fucking wonder the same author wrote Gun Knight Girl which is the exact opposite of that.
>>14727896
Somebody could have slapped him up the head and taught him how to pace the story properly after they read Gun Girl Knight
>>14727904
My theory is that the developers of Nanairo Reincarion were more lax on padding, whereas Gun Knight Girl's developers (different company) pushed for way more of it.
>>14727769
>When does it start getting good
Probably around chapter IV.
>is Rin as boring as she looks?
Yes, actually.
>>14727914
This might be it since it seems Silky's Plus main priority is to let writers do what they want.
>>14728046
III Zypressen and III A Nice Derangement of Epitaphs were amazing already.
And Rin is pure evil.
>>14728049
Zypressen just had a nice atmosphere, Epitaphs was okay. I wouldn't say amazing. VI was the only chapter I would call amazing.
>>14728057
Epitaphs is my favorite part of the game and I love Zypressen too
Is Saihate no Ima actually good and worth reading or is it as pretentious as it seems?
>>14728085
The way it presents the scenario is pretty interesting and sayaka's routes were very good. Almost everything else about it was pretty bad though.
>they translate Nitroplus Blasterz but not Kishin Hishou
>>14728085
It's one of the best eroge
It takes a bit of time to get into it due to the way the story is presented but once you get how it works it gets incredibly good
>>14728136
Kinda like who cares?
>>14728085
>pretentious
The main draw of the game is the weird plot and unique storytelling style rather than any long-winded philosophical ramblings on part of the author, if that's what you're asking. It's hard to say anything without spoiling it.
>>14728083
Cool.
>>14728222
Yeah, your opinion was cool too
>>14728241
Thanks.
How many people here still need to rely on a text hooker while reading?
>>14728331
Ask DJT.
>>14728331
What do you mean rely? It's not like anyone can know every Japanese word ever. I have it running in the background so I can easily look up stuff in a J-J dictionary if I need to.
Recently I read Monobeno's Alice's After route in one go and I needed to look up around 10 words in it. Does that count as relying on it?
>>14728347
Why are you responding seriously? He is obviously some /vn/ troll. Those guys think that anyone that types "eop" is from here.
>>14728136
If a retard like me can learn enough Japanese to read most of Kishin Hishou with minimal issues in 2 years so can anyone.
>>14728344
They usually spend more time with memes and superfluous arguments than actual reading. I'd imagine that it'd be difficult and unreliable to trust them, even if there are a few exceptions among the group.
>>14728347
How are you able to use it to look up J-J with it? I thought parser and mecab were the only ones that you could use and they happen to be in English.
10 words definitely doesn't count as relying on it. At that point, you could also just google the words without looking them up without expending much time. That's more or less what I mean by not having to rely on it.
>>14728415
Please don't assume that everybody happens to a troll from that absolutely cancerous place.
In short, I've only been reading for a few months and have finished a few untranslated titles from here and then. I recently started Tokyo Necro and while the sentence structure was easy to grasp, there were a number of words from the first scene that I wasn't familiar with. Not having some kind of text hooking problem made me feel a bit helpless when I had to painstakingly search up each word manually every time.
I'm just curious about how long it typically takes until that kind of stuff gets better. I'm guessing that 2 years here is the norm?
>>14728555
>Not having some kind of text hooking problem made me feel a bit helpless when I had to painstakingly search up each word manually every time.
WWWJDIC has an app with HKR and ORC.
>>14728564
Sorry, I meant text hooking program* there. I'll check that out. Thank you.
>>14728555
>How are you able to use it to look up J-J with it?
As you said, I just google them (+ 意味) and get Japanese online dictionaries as results.
I use text hooking to be able to easily copypaste them.
Anyway, even if your intentions are good, Japanese learning dicussion is looked down upon here. But I understand if you don't want to ask in DJT, it's terrible.
Mahoyo spoilers.
It's like I'm reading Naruto.
Do you BUY visual novel ?
>>14728894
Yes. Like, one game in a year.
>>14728894
I think I answered this question at least 3-4 times in this thread, but yes. Only from the companies I like, and mostly after I have read the game itself though. In short not buying like "Oh this game seems good, lets buy and try it", just for the sake of supporting them so they wouldnt go bankrupt.
>>14728894
Yes, but only all age versions on my ps4/ps3/vita.
>>14728894
Usually from companies I like.
>>14728894
Sometimes.
I'll preorder the games from a couple of companies that I like.
After downloading a game, if I really like it I'll buy it as well.
I used to buy most of age's releases but since they've made nothing but garbage the past several years I haven't bought anything of theirs in 2 or 3 years.
>>14728894
I've bought a few, generally after I've already read them and know they're worth my money. I think the last one I got was probably Steins Gate on the vita.
>>14728894
I preorder, since I can attend the maker's events and get some fancy good like that.
>>14728894
Only games that I end up enjoying
>>14728083
Yeah, I liked them too. I didn't say I didn't. I just said I wouldn't call them "amazing", I think words like "amazing" and "masterpiece" should be reserved only for works that pull everything off perfectly or very near perfectly.
http://anonymouscode.jp/
>>14728894
I buy every game except for the ones that would likely put me in prison (Monobeno, etc.).
>>14729286
There are no lewd pictures on Monobeno Happy End's package though.
And I doubt customs would unwrap it to check inside.
>>14729414

>>14701072
Bit late but, I just finished as well. Miyu's route is pretty stupid, yea. Fuck nonstop boyfriend at love hotel and his place for a day or two, get into a fight with papa and then reconcile in under an hour.

(Renai Jijou, Miyu route spoilers)What a bitch. I know she's a detective, but did she really just rat out two of her friends over a job?
>>14727896
Talking about Gun Knight Girl, how were war and the military portrayed in it? I'm pretty interested in how authors portray those things in military works, it's why I loved Gunjou no Sora o Koete. I think both Hayakari and Kazuki are lightly mili-otas.
>>14719476
Reminder.
>>14728894
I didn't before when I lived in the UK, but I'm planning to do so now since I've moved to Japan and don't have to worry about laws/family and friends finding my loli collection.
First thing I bought (well, pre-ordered) was the Maitetsu & Monobeno set. The pre-order section beside the entrance to Sofmap Akiba is incredibly convenient. I wonder if it is an indication of how much the industry relies on pre-orders.
>>14730125
Absolutely.
And yeah, you can get the preorder tickets everywhere.
>>14728894
The ones that I love and have downloadable versions mostly. I'm fine with paying full price even if it's not physical, I just don't like spending that much in shipping + fees.

Poorly and well at the same time. I like how the characters treated it pretty seriously and knew they were their lives were in danger and whatnot. The main problem I had with it was the mere fact that there are only 3 adult characters in the entire game. The "principal", "assistant principal", and the scientist. So, it never really feels like the military. Not to mention their tits are huge which is honestly far more distracting than you would think.
Did anyone get the trial for 罪ノ光ランデヴー? I can't access minori's site and it isn't on getchu.
I've seen that Chaos;Child will be getting a PC release soon, do you think it has good chances for being translated?

I love the character chemistry in Nanairo, even if the plot is quite shallow. It\s really nice how characters are almost always present even if the mc has relations or intentions for one of them. There\s a moderate, but sufficient amount of sex.
Aoi is best oni.
>>14730678
>It it's not like most Japanese people are good at their language either.
That doesn't mean the standard for fluency is reduced, though. And you might as well say that for any language.

Direct link to 罪ノ光ランデヴー tsuminohi trial was posted in a previous thread:

Thanks friend. I really hate that the archive is down.
>>14731224
I wonder if Makoto got married in the sequel. Would be nice if it's Yumi.
>>14731719Given that Kotori isn't there, it's likely that this follows the "true end" of Kotori disappearing, and thus it's unlikely he developed a relationship with any of the girls, just a guess though.I didn't see Yumi or Kotori on the character pages for Akeiro
Finished the 罪ノ光ランデヴー trial.
Actually pleasantly surprised. The pacing is pretty nice and the heroines are interesting. The production is also obviously a big plus.
I liked how the trial itself could be considered an entire route.
I haven't played ソレヨリノ前奏詩 but I've looked at egs reviews for it and saw a lot of people saying that if you take the production away from it nothing remains to enjoy and that it has way too much h scenes.
Hopefully the same won't apply to 罪ノ光.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure I'll end up playing the whole thing.
Does anyone have played VNs on Android?
Is there something good out there?
>>14731833
>nothing remains to enjoy and that it has way too much h scenes.
I'd disagree, if you stick solely to Towa's route, the game is a quite good relationship drama game with a strong focus on the main relationship throughout.
It's definitely worth a play if you liked tsuminohi's trial.
>>14731127
Are those private trackers?
>>14732021
No, those are the name of uploaders
>>14731833
I agree with >>14731913 - I think you would like Soreyorino in any case. Also, every heroine had ~3-4 H-scenes, I think that's pretty standard nowadays. They were pretty long each, though, but that's not rare either.
>>14732031
Do they upload to nyaa?
>>14732075
No, they upload to Share EX2, I suggest you use that software like everyone here does
>>14732075
Why don't you try putting those names into nyaa?
>>14732092
Thanks anon

For people who don't learn autistically through reading, fluency is reached before you can read harder VNs.
>>14731575
Is the frame rate off for anyone else?
>>14732307
Other than the animated walking scenes where my CPU/GPU gets completely raped, not really.
>>14732387
That and the sakura pedals. I mean I can ignore it but it seems like a lot of slow down for a looping video playing in the background. Are all minori games like this?
Why is she such a hypocrite? Fucking hell
>>14732129
>For people who don't learn autistically through reading
What does this mean? Also, I thought Anki was the autistic way to learn Japanese.
>>14732401
Besides the fact that minori's engine is pretty old, I remember the same problem in walking scenes with PRIMALxHEARTS. I think nips can't code in general. The petals thing I think it's intentional since it seems to be sprite/frame based animation.
>>14729414
Lolis on the front and 18+ on the spine isn't a good combination.
>>14732693
But those lolis are so happy. Surely there's nothing fishy going on.

Yet another gaijin blocked site. Posting this because I remember people saying not many sites still did that. Anyway, what I have seen of this from not this website makes it look fucking cool.
>>14732899
NostalgicChord is one of the Akabe Soft's sub company. Every akabe soft company have the gaijin block, Just as Effordom Soft, Cosmic Cute, Syangrila, Hibiki Works etc. I'm not sure why the hell they have that much sub companies but in short all of them are belong to same shit.
>>14732914
I went to try and actually buy the game since it wasn't on nyaa and there seems to be no way for me to do so without installing a VPN or something. DMM auto-sending me to the Eng version of the site (which doesn't allow me to buy the game, clicking buy sends me to an error page saying I'm not allowed to do that where I live). That's annoying. I guess that's my answer to those Japanese guys that always ask "why don't you buy VNs".
Is Aokana worth it for Mashiro?
>>14732930
Yes, she's second best girl.
Best girl has no route.
>>14732935
Is best girl that brown loli?
>>14732946
>brown
>best
>>14732946
No
>>14732946
Nope, Teacher is the best girl for sure. Most likely they couldnt make a route for her because Ogata Megumi is refusing to voice any ero-scenes. Hell she felt like a heroine more than all others.
>>14732975
>Ogata Megumi is refusing to voice any ero-scenes
God bless her
>>14732924
>DMM auto-sending me to the Eng version of the site
Why do you care about untranslated VNs if you cannot read Japanese?
>>14733019
I live in America, but that doesn't mean I don't know Japanese. The whole page is translated to English so even if there's some button I'm missing that says "go to japan site" it wouldn't mean I don't know Japanese.
Why is White Album 2 only 2000 yen on the Vita store? That seems awfully cheap for such a massive game.
So how is it?
>>14733026
There's "日本語" button which you clearly cannot comprehend.
>>14732924
>>14733019
You can edit your region cookie to allow you into the Japanese parts of the website, the people playing Japan-only DMM webgames have been doing it for ages.
I think once you get that far you will be able to use your regular credit card without issues.
>>14733040
Thanks a ton anon, that's a lot of sweat off my back. Here's to hoping it works.
>>14733031
It's pretty good.
The only problem is the god awful start up sequence and saving/quick saving taking about 10 seconds.
>>14733040
Cookie thing is needed only for all-ages DMM. 18+ DMM requires literally only clicking on 日本語 on top right.
>>14733036
My script blocker plugin was hiding the button, actually.
>>14733040
How can I do it? I actually wanted to try some DMM games.
I got this even after clicking the 日本語 button.
>このサービスはお住まいの地域からはご利用になれません
So I guess Akebei is extra vindictive. The cookie thing did not work either. So it seems VPN is the only way.
>>14733031
Pretty mediocre.
>>14733063
It's not related to this thread anymore (unless >>14733077 is just doing it wrong), but most English wikis for the more popular DMM games have it in their tutorial section.
>>14733080
>having shit taste
>>14733031
Finished Ilya and Mitsumi routes and doing Kon Su now.
Ethica shouldn't be a protagonist, she doesn't do anything other than fight someone to let Souun go forward, her voice is annoying too.
The music is very good, especially Milgram's theme.
>>14732954
Not him but I'll wreck you up, mate.
https://youtu.be/n1kswyf9IHU
Holy fuck why are they blinking like there's sand in their eyes? Movement is uncanny as fuck too, it's like those amateur "animations" on Pixiv, makes the characters look like dolls rather than human lolis.
>>14733495
Are they less laggy yet?
>>14733495
I dont have a problem with it if there will be an off button, but really I'd like to see some Witch Garden or at least Tenkiame level e-mote as well.
Speaking about it, will ウィザーズコンプレックス have e-mote in it? I guess not since I didnt hear anything about that yet, such a shame.
>>14733495
I'm used to unnatural animations in eroge OPs but it seems they'll be like this in-game too so I'll be turning e-mote off.
>>14733613
We don't know since we don't have a trial. If you're talking about the showcase videos, they were just captured at a low framerate. By the way have they said when are we getting a trial?
>>14733031
Does it have a working agth code?
>>14733495
If I play this it'll only be for the girl with red hair.
>>14734501
Nope, you'll have to learn Japanese if you want to read it.
>>14734549
> Nope, you'll have to learn Japanese if you want to read it.
I'm sure it's a matter of time.
>>14733031
I think it's one of the worst titles of n+ scenario-wise, on par with angelos armas. maybe it's not that bad on its own, but it looks so much worse when compared.
>>14728894
I buy some off DMM and bought a few from steam just to support them. Back in the days I bought quite a few games like akaiito, ever17 and memories off.
But for a full price commercial VN, if you can even somehow buy online, there is no resale value or collection value, it's a very bad deal. Not to mention the high price.
So this is the story aboutan impure girl being saved by an umbrella and then learning masturbation from the actual god that wanted to kill her before?
What a past chapter. When I saw "past" in the scene selection I thought it's gonna be about Tooru's dad or something.
For some reason the relationship between Tooru and Natsuha just feels wrong. I feel like it would have been better if they just remained brother and sister and had no romantic feelings for each other. Also I find it odd that they have touched (a tiny bit so far) on the incest thing but not the fact that Tooru is having sex with a child who isn't even old enough to have had her period yet (mental age anyway, the wholeIAGSthing changes things a bit). There must be over a 10 year difference in their ages.
Not that it stops me from fapping to the scenes though, I felt Sumi was the best fit for Tooru and had the best route but I find Natsuha more fappable.
>>14734787
Yeah, I was thinking the same as you. I've got to say that I like Hishakaku much more than I expected. When I first saw him I thought it was a bit ridiculous, but he turned out to be a great character.
Also, don't you like the default font?
>>14734970
Yeah, I agree about Hishakaku, he's great. Takijorou too. And Furusoma. Especially Furusoma's voice. What were they thinking? If I heard a voice like that in a forest, I'd probably think it's someone pranking me.
I'm still in Sumi's route, going to start the After part of it now, but yeah, I can imagine how will Natsuha's H scenes be like after seeing the ones with loli Alice.
>parents taught me about sex
>and told me it's something you can't do until you grow up
>but let's do it anyway
The writing itself is definetly way less indulgent in this aspect that I presumed. I can't help but wonder if Lose is pandering so much to lolicons because it's simply how their brand turned up and because it's what people wanted for Happy End.
>>14735013
Lose has never not pandered to lolicons. That's sort of the point of the brand.
>>14735029
GosuDeli was originally gonna be non-H though.
And yeah, they obviously do pander to lolicons, it's just that Monobeno kinda reminds the reader how wrong it is.
Or maybe some people like to be reminded of it? Taboo's are alluring after all.
>>14732935
>Best girl has no route.
Japanese eroge in a nutshell
>>14732975
>Ogata Megumi is refusing to voice any ero-scenes.
If there is anyone I wanted her to voice in eroge it would be mamiya takuji in subahibi. She is the perfect fit for him.
>>14719336
So I'm using translation aggregator, I got it going just fine except for one problem.
ITH is refusing to clip board text with hearts in them, and google yeilds nothing since heart just syncs up to vn names with the word heart in them.
Hearts are like 30% of all the girl's ero lines or what have you, so its pretty surprising i couldnt find anything. does anyone know why this might happen or how to fix it?
>>14735788
>how to fix it?
Learning Japanese helps.
>>14735788
I'm pretty sure you won't encounter the problem if you learn japanese.
