>>344518148
Ehy don't you just torrent the nscripter version that's been available for years?
>>344518326
The old version has shitty text rendering resolution. Plus, this one has higher quality original sprites.
>>344518148
>that shitty art
If you don't read it with the R07 art you can fuck right off.
It's not worth playing
Alchemist art is better than all
When I see these kinda games with strange titles like that, I automatically think of that Star Trek episode where Picard is stranded on a planet with this guy who spoke in events. "Shaka, when the walls fell."

>>344520228
6 and 7 were pretty fucking awful, and there was a HUGE shift after episode 5 so it's pretty reasonable to go "okay, this is what the series is now, I'm out"
>>344518550
The Steam release lets you switch between the new art and the original art, though.
Also just buy it OP, it's not that expensive, christ.

It's okay man. I quit after Battler's literally who sister came into it. I honestly didn't give a fuck about what ebin twists there were

why the fuck even release old ass games separately like that? they came out a decade ago. I could understand maybe releasing question and answer arcs in two bundles but the way theyre doing it now is ass water
>>344520568
Higurashi needs a new translation because the old one is pretty garbage so it takes time. Shit is long.
Umineko has a translation by WitchHunt which is R07 approved so they could release that faster. And Umineko was always split in two 4-chapter packs.
>>344520643
so why not just wait to translate the two arcs and bundle them. Other vn translations take long as well, but they dont split them up into parts.

How do you feel about Moogy-denka's sentiments about Umineko?

>Hi, I read the entirety of Umineko as it came out and I feel like I'm being generous when I give it a 4/10. It's a convoluted mess that reads like it was written by a 12 year old. The Japanese fanbase refuses to so much as give Ryuukishi the time of the day nowadays for good reason.
...
>I don't know how the western fanbase continues to put up with Ryuukishi, and I honestly feel that it's damaging to the community as a whole to continue to obsess this much over a single work so long after the fact. The amount of Umineko discussion is one of the reasons people who read untranslated eroge feel so disconnected from the broader western fanbase, and it's not hard to see how stifling this level of obsession can be if you take a step back. This applies to other games as well (Fate and Majikoi, for example) and I suppose to a degree it comes part and parcel with the reality that you guys are exposed to such a tiny slice of what's out there, but when the game in question is something as obviously and majorly flawed as Umineko, I can't help but feel a sense of unease, I guess you could say.
...
>Honestly, I shouldn't have even posted in here. The way I approach the medium as a whole and what I look for out of eroge/VNs are simply too far removed from the western fanbase's to have any sort of meaningful discourse with people using translations, and I accept that. But at the same time, as someone who helped build the community as it is today, I guess I'm unable to fully suppress my irritation at the way it hasn't developed into the ideal I imagined for it over the years.

This is not a fault of the work, and is an empty argument. Over the years that I've argued and debated the meaning of Umineko, I've come to my own conclusions, closed the story in a satisfying way and moved on. I always feel that Umineko had a lot to say about life and I am better by reading it. To me, that's all that matters.

Anyway, since Satoko has had a towel in every release of Higurashi after original, and even the original script doesn't make a note about her suddenly losing it other than the command to change the displayed sprite, I don't think it's too much of loss.

MangaGamer is literally the officially accepted publisher for When They Cry, what more do these fucks want?
Also all these fucks crying about MG sexualizing kids. Yeah, it's not like original release didn't do anything like that. Characters were literally drooling after Rika's and Satoko's bodies, especially when they got into Angel Mort outfits, because why the fuck not.
Unrelated question, but what happened at the end of tome 3 of Higurashi ?
Keiichi kills Satoko's uncle and meets Takano on the way back, so he didn't imagine everything, right ?
So why is he alive the day after ? I never understood that one.
Every thread until we reach the Golden Land.
>>344518148
I've read the first 5 episodes in theofficialmanga, can anyone give me subtle hint on where I can find the VNs of the second half? I've already gotten the first half in VN format.
https://rokkenjima.org/an-announcement-by-the-witch-hunts-usagitenpura-regarding-uminekos-upcoming-steam-release/
This version has updated translation to fix things that were "unsolvable" in the original Witch Hunt translation.
>>344528660
So you could best summarize this word soup as "Stop liking what I don't like" and "Why aren't westerners just like us?" That's a lot of fucking letters to say precious little. Are all japs so well versed in demagoguery?
>>344533759
Keichi kills the uncle and meets with Takano, his friends cover for him and claim that he went to the festival, Satoko hallucinates his uncle being alive due to her disease, The Sonozakis find the corpse and help Keichi out hiding it
After mentally unestable Satoko pushes Keichi the Mountain Hounds send everyone to the concentration camps and since they don't find Keichi he survives
He later dies in the hospital
Had an idea once for an Umineko/Ace Attorney thing.
It would take place sometime between games and the basic plot was that Beatrice and Battler's struggle had inspired more people to deny being killed by magic. So to quickly take care of their arguments, Witch Trials were set up with the "defendant" being the victims (who can't remember the exact moments of their deaths for fairness). Seeing it as something amusing, Bern drags Battler out of his game to help give the clueless victims a fighting chance.
Battler as the "defense" and Beatrice was the "prosecutor", with Lamdadelta as the Judge and Virgilia filling in the "detective" role (I wanted to save Erika as a potential sequel prosecutor). Not sure who Battler's assistant would've been, but I was leaning towards Jessica. You had to use both physical evidence and red truths to contradict testimonies and figure out a real, non-magical killer.
The second case (the only one I thought up any details for) had a bully of Ange murdered via limbs being torn off and the magical explanation was that Ange commanded the Seven Stakes to kill her, so Battler tried to not only prove how magic wasn't used, but also have Ange be completely innocent of what happened.
>>344533759What evidence is there that he is still alive?
>>344534047
Only if the cause of the murder is absolutely fuckretarded.
Like small bombs.
>>344534047
also the prosecutor or defendant could useblue and purple truths
>>344532710
>they never tell you what the real truth is
It does reveal the truth. We know exactly what happened in every episode and we know what truly happened, no magic bullshit involved. It's been a while but I clearly remember it was all there.Yasu made a "game" to pass on the inheritance to someone else and maybe get Battler to remember his promise. She was engaged to George but she/he was panicking due to whatever the fuck was going on with his/her genitals and then Battler came back and she/he was all like "ah fuck it, I'll let fate decide this one fucking Kinzo style" (which involved possibly blowing up the whole island). The grown-ups figures the epitaph and received the inheritance but Rudolf and Kyrie got greedy and murdered everyone. Battler and Yasu escaped by boat and Yasu drowned herself/himself at sea out of guilt. Battler tried to save him/her and washed up on the shore amnesiac. He was found by Ikuko (Featherine) and together they write the episodes from what vague recollections Battler has.
>>344533965
Moogy isn't Japanese, you clueless faggot.
>>344528660
Is he trying to say that Japs have superior taste for whatever reason?
"This VN is so obviously flawed. Why can't westerners enjoy the better VNs that I proclaim to be better lol"
What exactly does he want to happen?
>tfw haven't played this VN
>trying to save meme images whilst avoiding espaliers
The only good thing that came out of Umineko was the music.
>>344532415
Best music. Entire box of tissues tier ending. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFyzTtKNzYIEveryone is still dead in the end. Battler survived but has amnesia, he wrote the stories from the third on as a means of coping with the emerging memories, and later as a means of helping Ange deal with her own issues and let her move on with her life. Beatrice survived the events on the island but killed herself afterwards.
>>344532710
>they never tell you what the real truth is
I believe the manga spells it out, but unless you have the IQ of a fruit fly you should be able to figure it out.Episode 7's tea party gets the first part of it right. The adults solved the epitaph and found the gold. Violence ensued.
Battler was assisting his parents to carry out the murders, but when he met Beatrice, who Kyrie probably sent him to kill, he realized who she was and why everything had played out this way, and he fled from the carnage with her before shit went nuclear. Eva survived as well, of course, and spent the rest of her life taking all the suspicion so Ange would never suspect that her parents and brother were the real culprits.
>>344534494
Let me fix some stuff.> Yasu made a "game" to pass on the inheritance to someone else and get Battler to remember his promise. He/she was engaged with/dating George (Shannon) AND Jessica (Kanon) but she/he was panicking because both relationships were escalating and he didn't have a dick or a vagina to consummate the relationships, and he/she himself/herself wants to love someone, but feels like it's impossible for her/him. Then Battler came back and she/he was all like "ah fuck it, I'll let fate decide this one fucking Kinzo style" (which involved possibly blowing up the whole island). The grown-ups figures the epitaph and received the inheritance but Rudolf and Kyrie got greedy and murdered everyone, and they themselves died horribly because Yasu forgot to turn off the bomb. Battler and Yasu escaped by boat and Yasu downs herself/himself at sea by accident from the shockwave from the explosion. Battler tried to save her, and wound up with brain damage himself, severe enough to give him amnesia for his entire stay on the island. He was found by Ikuko (Featherine) and together they write the episodes from what vague recollections Battler has.

>>344534995
It absolutely is. I read nothing except episodes 1 to 8 so I can't possibly have picked it up anywhere else. Just because it's not summed for you "Ok, Here is what happened:" word for word doesn't mean it's not there.
You probably didn't solve a single episode, even with Willard giving you the answers you goat.

>>344531953
yes it does
Say what you will but past all the animu characters and whatnot, Umineko is an incredibly beautiful story.
I've many times thought about compiling it into 8 simplified short stories, taking out all the fluff and making it a "mystery saga" where the goal is presenting the core of the story and allowing the reader to solve the murders in each book/episode and on the last one solve the story as a whole. But I'm too lazy to actually do it of course.

What the fuck? The original author did it and this one here thinks his/her will is superior to Ryukishi's or something?
>>344539079
The first half is good. The second half starts off good and then goes to utter shit because r07 is a hack writer and his friend/editor/ghost writer died and couldn't drag his ass anymore.
>>344539026
>>344539117
Everyone does hate George, huh?
>you will never be able to read Umineko for the first time again
>>344539198
yes, also last comic
>>344539198
See >>344521563 and >>344521619
I don't know anyone who doesn't hate him.
>>344539079
Depends.
I liked it till the end. Others only like the first half. Others hate it completely.
Does it sound good to you?
>>344539286
I like GeorgeI'm not George
>>344523439
You can switch to R07's old sprites like in the Higurashi game.
>>344539198
Wasn't he meant to be R07's self-insert?
At least that's what I remember.

If you haven't played it, yet, sure.
The fanbase is a little on the autistic end, unfortunately, as you can probably tell by this thread, but it's a better read than most modern literature.
That said, it's a read, not a game. It's essentially a light-novel with BGM and visuals.
>>344539697
Yes.
what is this gme all about?
>>344539697
No, it's shit.
>>344539996
its a murder mystery VN with a awesome soundtrack
>>344539996
Witches n' shit
>>344539937
Man fuck Erika
she's the nagito of Umineko
what a piece of shit
>>344523439
>old R07's sprites
You can switch to those if you want. I imagine they use new ones as poster graphic because Steamblebs wouldn't take too kindly to sausage fingers.
>voices
Alchemist holds the rights to those, and like with graphics, they demanded tons of money for MangaGamer to be able to use them. It was cheaper to get entirely new art for Higurashi, and art from Pachinko game for Umineko.
And now they've gone bankrupt, so who knows who has the rights to everything they did.
>>344537413
Even if Steam release did, version from MG's site is DRM free.
>>344539697
Do you enjoy mysteries and very ANIME moments? If so, yes.
>>344539961
That's coo with me I'm too damn autistic about choices
>>344540220
>she's the nagito of Umineko
Yes, and that's why she's great.
Also, it's actually "Nagito is the Erika of Danganronpa".
>>344540220
exactly
>>344539996
Are you familiar with Schroedinger's cat? Well imagine if a whole island blew up and what happened on it's last day is basically the "box" with all the possibilities inside. Then someone tell you it's witches that did it. Bur being a mystery novel fan you "nuh-uh" and vow to solve the mystery by mystery rules, no supernatural forces allowed.
In the end of it all you open the box and the choice is yours.. was it magic after all? Without love it cannot be seen anon.

AAAAAAAHH
I'll never play ep.5 for the first time again
Help me /v/ros
>>344528660
Isn't this also the guy who regularly praises Nasu shit?
>>344540220
Are you implying Nagito isn't the best thing to have happened in vidya?
>>344540568
Accidentally drown yourself so you get amnesia and forget you played it. After you wake up play it for the first time again
>>344540572
>Umineko fan
>hating on Type-Moon
So this steam release is the full game or are there more chapters?
>when there's nothing but the sound of the rain hitting the windows in the game
Fuck, these games got me so immersed. Just read them non-stop for days straight. Wish I could do it for the first time all over again. Trying to get my friend to read them now that it's officially out, hoping he'll like them as much as I did since I know he loves a good murder mystery story.
>>344541006
It's the first 4 episodes.
>>344541006
It's Episodes 1-4, which is the first half of the story.
Speaking of, any word on when/if they'll get the Answer Arcs released?
>>344532379
Enjoying other visual novels doesn't prohibit an appreciation of Umineko, just as reading untranslated eroge doesn't invalidate possible fun to be had in english ones. That's an elitist argument with no upper bound on smug self-superiority and the delusion of 'artistic purity.'
>>344541006
This is the first 4 episodes, the last 4 (chiru) are yet to be released on steam.
>>344540832
I was going to post exactly this but then I thought "Eh maybe someone will post it for me". Then I was going to post that I was going to post that but then I thought "Eh maybe someone will post it for me" and I thought "Maybe someone will post they were going to post that" but I realized I was being lazy about posting so I did post it, here it is.
>>344540879
>type-moon
eroge trash and reads like a chuuni fanfic
Im interested in umineko but is there any gameplay at all or is it just a picture book?
Im ok with it anyway. Just wondering.
>>344541306
99.9% picture book
>>344541306
The only time you ever have control of anything is in Episode 8, which is the very last one. Steam has 1-4 right now.
>>344540879
FSN was bad, like, really bad.
Umineko might do stupidly long expositions but FSN managed to be worse.
>>344541252
what?
>>344540317
IIRC there is exactly one choice in the entire series. (Besides those mini games/quizzes in the last game.)
It determines, if you get the "good" ending or the "bad" ending in the final game.
That said, even the "good ending" is bad (as far as craftsmanship is concerned).
>>344520745
What?
Why mix the art?
Anyone else play Witches and Woodlands?
>>344541352
>>344541390
Ok thank you.
