Welcome to /vhg/!
>What's VA11-Hall A?
A cyberpunk VN-style game where you are a bartender, slinging drinks to waifus.
OST : https://garoad.bandcamp.com/album/va-11-hall-a-second-round
Official site : http://waifubartending.com/
Demo : https://kiririn51.itch.io/valhalla-bar
Steam : store.steampowered.com/app/447530/
What drink is small sweet and icy? I can only find one thats sweet and icy with 10 ingrediants
>>146169876
Moonblast, innit?
The game only differentiates BIG drinks as 20 ingredient ones.

>>146175017
Give it time, anon.
Unless it was the name of something else that you're lamenting.
I forgot how to make drinks big
pls help
>>146178849
double up the ingedients
I get this screen when I turn on the game, what do
>>146180497
What OS are you running? Also what version are you trying to run? Steam? Mega? GoG?
>>146180683
Win7, GoG
Interested in the game cause I love cyberpunk, but feeling a bit reluctant with indie games lately. How does the game do performance-wise? Any major bugs or flaws? Where did you buy it off? Buying it directly off the website is a $5 discount apparently and you get the prologue and OST with a Steam key, but I'm wondering if it's expired.
>>146180834
Can you take a screencap of the folder you have it in?
Mine runs fine.
>>146181438
No bugs but it's more VN than "game", so it might be a flaw depending on who you talk to. Discount from the website is still good.
>Dorothy asks about your talking to yourself
>Anna shows up on the TV
SPOOKED
I'm usually a huge stickler for gameplay focused games and I usually stay away from VNs, but holy shit i'm actually having a lot of fun with this.
How?Is it the memes?
>>146182317
- a e s t h e t i c s
- awesome OST
- cute grils
- mixing, although BARELY gamplay, is still a welcome distraction from regular block-text VNs
If the mixing had like timing bars and shaking directions and stuff I'd probably rate this game even higher.
>>146182097
There you go
there has to be something i'm missing
>>146182751Piano Man.It was mentioned in a conversation prior, if you remember.
>>146182730
It's probably the GoG shit making it act wonky.
Copy and back up the folder just so you don't lose anything, but after you do, try removing all the GoG shit until the folder looks like this.
Once it does, launch it from VA-11 Hall A.exe instead of the shortcut launcher.
>>146182946
oh shit, i remember. I thought that was with the newspaper intern? I wouldn't have ever guessed that on my own though, wow.

I can almost smell the 4chan scent from the steam page. I was so sure that I would find a general here or a thread on /v/
>>146183376
To be fair, the guys that made it are literally from /agdg/, so yeah.
The /v/ threads are mostly screeching about memes and shitposting, but the girls are cute, so here we are.
>>146182097
Is the discount something you could only get in the past I don't see it anywhere on the official store.
Do you have to follow the customer's instructions or can you improvise or give them a different drink?
>>146183524
It's right on the main website, not Steam.
http://waifubartending.com/
Above the steam link, which is green, click the red box that says BUY NOW and it'll flip over and give you the option to buy it from the website directly, which gives you all the shit.
As for the instructions, yeah usually.
A customer will either :
- ask for an exact drink (give them what they want)
or
- ask for a kind of drink (bitter, sweet, salty, whatever), which you can then pick whatever you want and hope it matches
Beyond that, you can make some drinks more alcoholic or twice the size to get them hammered (which matters some of the time but not usually).
>>146182989
Nope, nothing changes. I can hear the menu items clicking but the screen is just glitched.
>>146184415https://mega.nz/#!ohFzCayb!mLrrD4JaWIZnSF758kG_dxdSaM-tz6nmpo8DwsOUEtQ
Give that a shot, senpai.
>>146183910
Ah so the discount is for all the shit, basically you just get the ost for free.
Thanks for the tips.
>>146185267
Yeah, and the Prologue, which isn't on Steam right now.
What's Dorothy's drink to cheer her up? Too many people to remember all their favourites.

2 Aldehyde, 3 Bronson Extract, 5 Powdered Delta, 5 Flangeride and 3 Karmotine.
ALL on the rocks and mixed.
"This drink does not represent the opinions of the Bar Pianist Union or its associates."
Sour, Promo, Strong
>>146191146
I'm doing the tutorial and everytime I add everything to make the drink and press mix it still comes out bad. What am I supposed to be doing. I drag each drink to the center, added the ice, hit mix.
>tfw no sexbot friend to take home with you
why must life be suffering
>>146191281
You realize you can add up to 20 ingredients to a drink right? There's more than enough room for everything.
I don't understand how people have trouble with the drink mixing. The controls are laid out super clearly and honestly it's just tedium at this point since I just wanna keep talking to the characters but have to stop and do babby puzzles all the time.
>>146191281
Add the ingredients, press ice, and then press mix, let it go for a 5 count and then click stop.
Piano man.
>>146191281
Make sure you're not letting it mix too long. Letting it go for around five seconds is the limit for a mixed drink, after that when the shaker speeds up it's considered a blended drink.
It's best to just instantly stop mixing a mixed drink. It doesn't even need to mix for a full second. Only a blended drink needs to go until the shaker speeds up.
>>146191781
>>146191679
thank you, I guess it was the mix shit I was stuck on
What's the "pure" drink the faggot wants?

>>146198681
Double everything. Obviously only drinks with 10 or less ingredients can be biggenized.
>>146201782
It's been literally a day. So, yes. But only like one or two.
What was the drink who has the name changed after protests?
>>146205676
it's in the description of the drink
>>146164612
So how are people enjoying the game? I think it's really quite comfy, although the music gives me a headache after a while.
Anyone have a torrent or mega link?
is cyberpunk as fedora-core as steampunk?
>>146205790
Ah, found it, thanks. I can't find the one in "honor of a good friend", tho.

Piano Woman.
>>146205886
I only put comfy tracks on my jukebox to avoid this.
>>146205906
If you look carefully...
>>146206085
Not yet. Steampunk still wins because of fatties dressing themselves in leathers and gluing broken clock parts all over themselves.
>>146206215
i asked that question in this thread already actually
>>146206215
That one is a Piano Man. It was mentioned in earlier dialogue.
>>146206286
Thanks my man, next time il look before asking.
What happens if you have problems focusing at work? Anything? Does the amount of alcohol I put in the drinks actually matter?
How on earth do I know when a drink is ready mixing?
>>146207403
Instantly if mix, wait until the can shakes really fast if it says to blend
>>146207279
It just means that when you go to mix the drink, she won't remind you what the customer ordered.
As for the booze, it changes how some scenes happen. At the beginning, you can hyperbooze the glasses bitch that Boss brought to the bar and knock her out again, and Gil has to put her in a cab and send her home. If you don't, she stays awake and complains about more shit and leaves on her own.
I always go for 100% booze to kill these niggas.
Is there some way of instantly transferring stuff into the mixer? I'm playing on a laptop without a mouse and dragging stuff with a touchpad is really annoying.
>Big Boss Shiba shows up
>rivals with Seifar

Is fore the cat?
Did not notice the the speak text changed for every article
>>146206286
Comfiest tracks?
>>146209650
Fore is the cat, yes.
But the cat doesn't actually talk.
How long is this game? I feel like I've been playing it forever
>>146210965
20 hours
>>146208138
Use the keyboard shortcuts.
Q - Adelhyde
W - Bronson
E - Pwd Delta
R - Flanergide
T - Karmotrine
Has the game crashed for anyone else?
>>146210231
So Jill is just imagining him talking?She needs to get laid.
>>146216191
Everything marked "Fore" is actually Jill talking to herself out loud. Boss comments on it when she comes over for beers.
WHERE'S ALL THE ART
What would Dorothy Order?
>>146219180
Her usual is the Sugar Rush, but when she's feeling down or celebrating she prefers the Piano Woman.
For that one in particular, however, the correct choice is the Sugar Rush.

>>146224305
You probably gave her the ol' spicy drink she asks for. You're not supposed to give it to her.
>>146224708
God dammit.
>>146224708
Then what ARE you supposed to give her? If you give her the Bleeding Jane you do get the Flawless bonus, but I've tried giving her anything else without alcohol in it and it gives me a mistake.
>>146224085
Try to see if control is stuck.
I got the simpsons joke one.
A Single Plum, Floating in Perfume, Served in a Men's Hat.
What is it?
Fedora tipper walked in again and asked for a drink, something "fake"
What the hell do I do? I'm thinking the beer?
>>146228198
frothy beer
>>146227621
Literally a single plum, floating in perfume, served in a men's hat.
Check under the BOTTLE tab.
>>146228198
Froathy Water. The description says it's fake beer.
Is it possible to pay all bills and not be distracted on your first run, i.e. pay all bills and buy items required for Jill so she stays focused at while bartending? I'm trying to make my save files work but I guess I need more cash in the early game.
>>146228198
>>146228327
Ah. And the next one he asked for pure, so I'm thinking that one drinks thats 1 adelhyde and 9 9 kermotryne?
>>146228467
Oh shit, I just remembered I spent like 1k on a case of beers to drink with my boss. Was that a requirement to not get distracted or could I just pass on buying that? I'm around 400 off from reaching the 10k to pay rent.
What do I give Mikai when she asks for something "like tea", its the end of the month and I'm strapped for cash so Jill's distracted and I get no hints.
>>146228637
She wants the Mulan Tea, $900 from the shop between workdays.
>>146228750
So I'm fucked?
Nice.
>>146228637
She wants tea from the store.
For anyone that just got to the binary in the newspaper on day 2, the message is:
THE RETRIBUTION IS CO
Which probably finishes with COMING.
If that's wrong, please let me know.
>>146228467
As far as I know, it is possible. What you have to do is:
1. Always speedrun the drink-making process. Know what the person wants, and make it as quickly as possible. Keyboard shortcuts definitely help speed this up. The faster you go, the higher your tips will be. I can consistently get $1300 in tips on the first few nights.
2. On any night you can get a flawless service bonus, do so. I don't know for sure, but I think this is like Papers Please where you cannot get all of the perfect service bonuses and get the best ending.
>>146229114
I didn't know that speed affected tips. Was that mentioned in the tutorial? I skipped it since I played the previous demos. Thanks for the heads up.
Is there any way to make Sei stay after she comes in from the bank incident? Jill says maybe she shouldn't server her a Jane, but I don't know what else to make for her.
>>146229114
>>146229730
Tips don't matter much though. NG+ allows you to carry over all cash, and you can buy all the items by chapter 2 anyway.
Unrelated, but does not paying your power bill have any repercussions? Didn't get a game over.
>>146230349
>inb4 someone edits those chopsticks into a pregnancy test
Playing game makes me realize how devoid of social interaction my life actually is
bring out the karmotrine boys
>>146230359
Just curious though, is speed the only factor to getting extra cash? What if I give someone a big version of a drink even though they don't ask for it?
>>146231523
You get a commission (30%?), so selling XL drinks -- which cost more -- will get you more cash.
It's more a question of if the game accepts you giving XL sized drinks to people who don't specifically ask for them
>>146231523
big drinks dont affect cash, in that they increase the price of the drink. It could get you tipped more if the patron is in the mood. To get more money out of your drinks you need to give them more expensive drinks.
>>146232407
>big drinks dont affect cash
Neg, just tested it with the first real customer, Donovan.
>Regular Beer: $250
>Large Beer: $450
The drink menu says that beer is $200 each (I'm assuming the extra $50 is the tip). So size does affect the drink price, unless he's actually tipping 125% the bill value in the second case.
>>146231929
Yeah a customer asked for a specific flavor of drink in the same category as piano woman which was the most expensive but I made a big version of a drink in the same category and got more money for it instead.
>>146231684
I've also noticed, and maybe it was just a coincidence but some drinks, no matter how fast you serve them(?) give a set price. I think the $80 one stays the same.
>player character is female
I thought their name was Gillian or some shit at one point, what happened
>>146232539
oh wait, scratch that $80 one. Certain drinks from certain customers stay menu price is my speculation.
>>146233168
Ingram in the early game doesn't tip.
>>146233084
Gillian got reassigned to fuckboy.
>>146233401
>Waifu Bartending

I got DR2 for the same price and it's 50 hours long if you go for everything
Shit, what's the other drink Dorothy likes after you give her the Piano Woman?
Blue Fairy?
>>146233625
By the way I'm talking about regional prices, I know that DR2 is actually $30
So, is there a mirror for the OST?
I just sunk money and then found out after that I fucked myself by doing that, since I miss out on the prologue and OST.
What am I supposed to give Sei when she asks for a Bleeding Jane?
>>146234662
Are you talking about the hinted alternative? I asked that here>>146230349
but never got a response.
>>146233882
Guys please
>>146234814
I am. It's clear I'm not supposed to give her the Bleeding Jane, but it looks like no one has worked out what you're supposed to give her
Mod where you replace Fuckboy with JULES when?
So should I get a Christmas tree or make payment for the upcoming 24th?
>>146233882
>>146234916
Well fuck it was blue fairy.
>>146234662
>>146234814
>>146234918
It's the Blue Fairy. She'll drink it and leave still but Gillian will guard her and after the Break, it triggers a bonus scene and 0 error in the breakdown.
It seems like a secret though/NG+ intended choice because there's no hint at all. I think if you fuck up and then there's NG+ you know what to do based on the ending I guess.
>>146234918
>>146234814
I gave her a sugar rush with no karmotrine and we had a girl talk after.
>>146233625
Oh wait they actually cut regional price after somebody complained on the forum and compared it to other games
Nice
>>146235273
Thanks anon.
Just beat the game. Does anyone have a tldr on how to get the bonus scenes/routes?
>>146191146
how do you fit that all in though?
>>146236138
You have 20 slots for drinks.
2 + 3 + 5 + 5 + 3 = 18
How do you not fit it all? You even have room to spare.
>>146188712
Please help, I have the same question.

Is she really that flat? The image of her in the intermissions don't make her seem so.
what's a 17?

>>146238859
When will VN snobs realize that VN's does not have to revolve around sex, marriage and relationships? Valhalla did it right with storytelling in a unique atmosphere with different characters and personalities?
>>146239029
I meant the game itself is 'quality'
>>146239115
Don't try and market the game with waifus when it isn't then, simple concept
>>146239115
one of the games' two (2) marketing points is waifus
>>146239231
>>146239269
No. Waifu just means when referring to a fictonalized character that you obsess over. Doesn't necessarily mean you can marry them. Google it
>Noun. waifu. (fandom slang) A fictional character (generally female) from non-live-action visual media (typically an anime, manga, or video game) whom one is attracted to and considers a significant other.
Doesn't have to be an in-game thing. You can have Dorothy be your waifu and print out a body pillow and jerk off over it.
>>146239417
Not either of those guys but I feel disappointed with the lack of story length and detail around the characters. The 'waifu' aspect is having well fleshed out cute girls, and this game doesn't really bring that to the table.
>>146239417
By that logic every single fucking game ever with a female character is "Waifu Xing"
Still makes 0 sense to market/tagline the game based on waifus if you're using that as your definition.
>>146239643
this is what i was trying to communicate, sorry if it came off unclear in the image. the lack of exploring the depths that the chars could bring to the table is what turns me off and i couldnt really figure out articulate that, my bad
>>146239417
According to you if Blizzard wanting to market Overwatch as "Waifu shooting" you'd be 100% on board and supportive at that tagline
>>146239774
What I really feel the issue is that NG+ offers no new dialogue I know of past other endings and getting certain drink choices different. I'm holding ctrl here because there's nothing new to learn about the characters like I expected from NG+. Missed an opportunity to really add a lot of character detail.
Anyone else not like the game? The characters never really go anywhere, plot points are unresolved and you spend far too much time with titty hacker who was the most boring of the lot of them.
The fuck is a seventeen? What do I give virgilio?
>>146240184
Someone answered this on /v/. Find a drink that has optional Karmotrine and make it have 17 ingredients total.
>>146240012
>>146240092
both of these exactly, there is just the right amount of content below the surface to dissapoint you when there is no more to experience. the first playthrough is fucking fantastic until you realize that the ending came 6 chapters too early and also haha fuck you who gives a shit about the status of the bar i am so angry
>>146240268
>theres a tracker for how much the bar has earned

I dont give a FUCK about lenore, what did dorothy need my help with? What the fuck was up with gil? When am i going to fuck my boss?
>>146238852
Game has routes closer to a VN. Giving correct drink orders and paying off debts will unlock different endings
>>146240268
>>146240457
>>146240468
For me it was the buildup. Ingram has someone roleplay his daughter once a year, and you casually find out later its Dorothy and there is no further information and it serves no purpose. The little things like that just pissed me off in the end. I paid attention to everything everyone says for no reason. This VN only has the common route, and makes pretend there are real routes, but there aren't and you just keep getting baited into thinking things will develop further. Is it wrong to want another chapter for each ending outside the basic one? Or new content in NG+? Anything to reward finding the other endings?

>>146240457
>>146240763
this reeks of "oh shit we're 2 years late get this the fuck done"
>>146240763
The only thing that can make me any saltier about this purchase is that I enjoyed the first play through of it, and I think that makes the disappointment afterwards even keener.
So aside from>>146239417
>it has fictional girls in it like pretty much any game ever
What about this game was "waifu" anything?
>>146239968
Yet Overwatch fans obsess over Tracy, Mercy and D. Va all the time. they never intended people to have them their waifus. It's just a buzzword for Valhalla.
>>146241285
Now that I think about it, *I* want to fuck a lot of these characters but I don't really care if Jill herself actually does or not, I just want to keep on listening to their stories and see where the alcohol takes them.
What, that curry thing said it happened in february and now I'm in a concert in january. What?
>>146241445
i feel giving the mc dialogue, while central to the plot, kinda ruins the immersion
>>146241445
>Now that I think about it, *I* want to fuck a lot of these characters

This felt less like a VN and more like a book, im watching characters interact to learn about them and their world. Only this book keeps asking me to do a shitty minigame.
And half of it is missing.
>>146241742
The dick.
She wants the dick.
>>146239643
It could've been really interesting getting to know more about the girls but they were really focused with Jill. Makes me think that if even if they kept Gil as the protag they might not have done anything. Maybe they were afraid of actually showing lesbian relationships.
haha wow those dogs sure were wacky! lol haha!
>>146241850
>shitty minigame
>And half of it is missing.
Oh god that's just making me imagine them adding a gimmick to the Vita port where you shake your Vita to shake the drinks as an optional input like Phoenix Wright where you could use the DS mic to shout objection.
>>146241778
kek
If they did one thing right they got danger/u/ perfectly.
>>146241285
That's the point, the game itself just uses the waifu tagline as a buzzword but aside from "Girls are present in the game and you may come to give a fuck about them" there is nothing "waifu" about it. Especially when the game barely focuses on them more than just to basically introduce them and make you barely care about them.
I'm not sure if at one point they actually did having something more planned before they switched the protag from Gillian to Jill, or if they really just used it to bait people into caring about the game before they understood the scope of the product.
Even if you say "It's a waifu game because you grow to care about the character" most of the focus of the game is actually not even on them, but rather Jill so that doesn't fly.
>>146241469
Seriously this ending is weird it keeps jumping between january and february.
>>146242264
What I'm saying is waifu is subjective. I can watch TMNT and say April is mai waifu. Clearly they never intended it to be targeted as waifu material.
You can have anyone be your waifu.
>>146243104
>Clearly they never intended it to be targeted as waifu material.
The fucking tagline was waifu bartending, they refer to waifus multiple times in the blog, it's fucking advertised as such.
So it's either
A) They bait and switched to draw in an audience that otherwise wouldn't give a fuck about the game
B) They changed the focus of the game and never bothtered to stop talking about it that way
Your argument is basically "They never intended it to be a waifu game, they just never shut up about how it was a waifu game because...uh"
>>146243104
Pretty sure they never called it
>Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Waifu Crimefighting
That's the difference. They decided to play up an aspect of the game that doesn't even exist.
>>146243446
Again, "waifu" is just a buzzword and it's subjective. It's just weebs who obsess over fictionalized characters. That's on the player, not the developers. It's not a fucking feature.
>>146243756
The devs are the ones who called it waifu bartending, I'm pretty sure most people here would agree there's barely anything "waifu" present in this game or at least nothing that would merit constantly referring to it with the word waifu
Just finished my first playthrough (Got Alma, Dorothy and Good ends), how do I get the special scenes?
>>146243756
If you told me a game subtitled waifu bartending would have 0 VN/waifu elements I would've been surprised.
Whether or not the definition of what qualifies as "waifu" is subjective doesn't matter. The fact that it was used inappropriately in the context of what people obviously came to expect as a result of its use speaks volumes.
Also ignore the fact that the game isn't particularly special even with them totally ignoring the waifu angle
WHO THE FUCK IS ANNA AND WHY CAN ONLY WE SEE HER?
WHATS GILS PROBLEM?
DO WE EVER FUCK THE BOSS?
WHAT HAPPENS TO THE BAR?
IS ALMA ALICE_RABBIT?

what is the pure drink virgilio wants?

The drink thats 9 parts alcohol

I love Dorothy I think she's my waifu.
Devs did a good job. :3
>>146245594
>>146245665
I tried serving other drinks and he responds the same so I figured it wasn't the correct drink
Somehow this isn't waifu material

Ghost nanomachines.
Gil has a history of rabblerousing (HK riots etc.) Probably has some connection to the mob still, seeing how he gets along with Jamie.
No, no boss fucking.
The Bar closes, Boss and Jill goes travelling. Gil gets to look after the apartment.
Yes, Alma is part of Alice_Rabbit (the logo showed when she hacked the bartender terminal).
Probably to shitpost, who knows?

Also, if you start the day with anything other than A Neon Glow Lights the Way, you're doing it wrong.
Man, fuck Virgilio's requests. I gave him Piano Man since that's number 17, and apparently that was wrong.
What's the fake drink for him?
>>146258090
17 is just a drink with 17 ingredients. Just get one that has optional k whatever and make it total 17.
Fake Drink can be a Marsblast or a Bubbly Water? I think.
>>146258307
Frothy Water.
>>146258307

Thanks. He's pretty much only one who keeps giving me trouble.
Dorothy seems to be glitching the fuck out. She's asking for the Usual. Do I just give her a Piano Woman again?

So how do I calm this chick down? Thinking either frothy water or something with a lot of alcohol.
>>146196040
I gave her a double beer since that's a logical thing when it comes to spicy foods, and I still got the bonus.

Second round is free and even a child knows how to pirate from bandcamp if you want to also get prologue ost
I mean, I like the game
But fuck it feels like I just started the 2nd game because I didnt play the Prologue demo
>>146242174
>Copypaste some posts from /a/ /v/ and /jp/
>Get praised
>>146265867
Pretty much yeah. Both the demo and prologue introduce characters for whatever reason, and you're expected to remember that one corgi and you gave a moonblast too in the prologue
>>146242174
I don't know why you would expect anything less from some weebs from /agdg/.
>>146266121
Thats dumb
Fuck
>>146266282
The prologue has been out for like a year now, surely you can get a dl for it.
>>146266470
Oh I thought it was only if you pre ordered
Is there any reason I shouldn't be serving nothing but big drinks and max karmotrine?
I know it's silly, but I always get a sensible chuckle when I give them a "just fuck my shit up 18x karmotrine" special if they ask for a drink without a set amount of the stuff.
>>146265593

What the fuck did he mean by 17 though?
>>146268120
>Went to work without buying the extensive action figure
>Jill doesn't give descriptions of drinks that customers want anymore but keeps thinking of stupid jokes
What the hell, like this it's like game is actually expecting you to listen what everybody would like.
Should've done this right from start.
>>146268120
It'd be cool if being distracted actually had effects if you have a memory greater than that of a goldfish. How can people function in society if they can't remember simple shit like "big brandtini and something bitter" or something along the lines of that? That's like day 1 at McDonalds tier shit.
Like, what if being distracted made you add in wrong ingredients, or if Jill would read the recipe wrong, etc.
So was her based off Akame ga Kill?
>not serving any drink big by default unless asked otherwise
>>146240268
I'm... Glad I guess? That I'm not the only one that feels this?
LikeWhat the fuck is up with Ingram??What the fuck is up with JILL!? Being able to see that shit?What the fuck is up with that girl that SEES THAT SHIT TOO?What the fuck is up with Alma actually being Alice?!Who the fuck did he get laid with?What is the deal with the whole retribution is coming shit???What about the detectiveWhat is Sei going to fucking do??How did she lose her arm!?No seriously what the FUCK is up with Anna how can she change the interface what is up with that shit
Am I actually getting answers to that by getting different endings or something?? Can you get more than one ending at the same time because I really don't feel like spending several hours of the same dialogues just to get a scene and might as well just wait a while and check youtube videos.
I enjoyed the game plenty but so many loose ends.
>Have been making drinks faster with zero mistakes
>Get tipped less compared to when I was taking more time with everything
Just what is this dependent on?
>>146272250
Sometimes the clients say that it's too big. I just do it when it feels like they'd like it.
>>146272716
All that is resolved in the upcoming DLC. With enough of it sold we will actually tie it all up in nice sequelbuy its DLC too anon or you will not get the full experience
>>146272783
I don't go to bars. Are "big" drinks a thing? Or is it just a gimmick from 2 nerdy faggots?
>>146273671
At least where I am from it's not called "big" but drinks of different sizes are a thing yes.
>>146272716
Arite turns out the dialogues are literally in .txt files inside the folder of the game.Sei works as a bodyguard for StellaAnna is actually a ghost related to Dorothy who is actually called Becky or something like that?? I think this was related to the prologue
>Stella: "The armors of his squad were modded to look like those of Henshin Heroes."
>Jill: "Hen what?"
>Stella: *blush*
Man, Stella is great.
>Jill is cynical, sarcastic, but still nice deep down
>Laid back and relaxed but still cares for her work
>Enjoys music without Lyrics
Holy fuck Jill is me
If theres a point where she says she really enjoys time to herself over being with others, I might freak out
>>146275097
It's clear as shit Jill is an introvert anon
>>146275097
She kind of implies she doesn't like working in the mornings because she doesn't want to wake up early or see anyone at that time so maybe? And she also is like "Hey Jill wanna hang out" "I dunnoooo..... no... maybe not no."
>>146275192

I can't bring myself to do it. Any other dev, sure. But they don't deserve it.
>>146238221
This, I've heard talk of Jill being flat but she seems endowed enough for me. Certainly not busty but the art I've seen makes her seem fairly average.
Only gotten through the first day so far though

Whens an actual good time that you can use those bottled drinks anyway?
Can I even put them on the rocks and shit so certain vague orders can come from there to net me slightly more dosh
>>146278426
When customers say whatever, give them those drinks, it's paycheck time.
Otherwise, when they ask for them. Don't do it when they ask for a generic term (like bubbly, manly or some shit).
>>146278160
I live in a pretty poor part of Argentina. Devs are in Venezuela. Last year some of my neighbors were starving to death and I had to skip meals a few times to save money. Things now got a little better but in Venezuela shit's just getting worse.
>>146278556
So I can serve this on the rocks just cause they became vague?
Sweet
>>146278234
>>146278413
tfw pic related was probably dev self insert
>>146278764
>Jill is a self-insert for the dev
would explain a lot about the mediocrity of the actual interactions with the cast
Even if you want to waifu them they aren't -your- self-insert
So whats the point of giving large orders when the customer didnt specify how large he / she wants the drink?
I've developed a habit to give everyone double dosage and when optional karmo is available (that doesnt contradict the order) I flood it with it
Am I doing something I shouldn't have?
>>146278234
then it's not a similar situation, it's the same situation.
>>146279039
>So whats the point of giving large orders when the customer didnt specify how large he / she wants the drink?
Larger commissions? You get 30% of sales, and double-orders make the customer pay double.
>>146279125
Well, we don't have electricity shortages anymore; in Venezuela they're still doing programmed blackouts. That's just one example. Things were Venezuela-tier (at least in my area) right at the end of the previous government; things are now much more expensive but stuff is easing up a bit altogether.
>>146278881
>jill is a self insert
I think he was talking about the article anon, getting beat up by corrupt cops and all that.
>>146281449
Yeah I meant the article, not Jill.
Can someone upload the demo on Mega, please?
I tried to download from op link, but I got a error message everytime.
How do I get the hidden drinks?

Will there actually be DLC? I enjoyed this enough that I'm going to buy one if it gets made.
>check pixiv

What do I give the tryhard after I give him Frothy Water? He asked for something "pure."
>>146282889
Nevermind, after 2 hours I manage to download it.
>>146291125
Pure alcohol
>>146291125
Give him some rum.
>>146291125
Fringe Weaver, or whatever that one with 9 alcohol is
So do the interactions with people actually change if you give them their preferred drinks, but up the alcohol count like hell?
I feel like all of the /sexual/ conversations in this game were written by someone who has no idea what sex actually is in the real world
>>146272716
Your boss actually tells you how she lost her arm if you get drunk when she visits your apartment. She lost it when she lost her virginity.
>>146294059
You don't say
It's not like 2 weebs that browse 4chan made this
>>146294302
"Mr. Donovan' is probably the worst example of it. He probably has the highest cringe-per-word ratio of any of the characters I've come across so far
>>146294564
It's their first game, they screwed up a lot on the writing but the dev said in the discord they didn't expect this game to ever get traction so they went crazy with the memes and everything.
I think they'll learn from the backlash for their next game.
>>146294564
Donovan doesn't even talk about actual sex.
What is everyone's general opinion on the game?
I like it. The 4chan-ish board Jill visits isn't something I'm all that into, but the rest of the game feels smooth. It's a nice change of pace, internet memes aside.
I just wish there were... I dunno, more to it. Like either some sorta dating component or just a longer story with more to do at home between days. It's understandable why that wasn't possible though, considering budget and whatever extenuating circumstances may have come up.
I hope they learn from this game and wish them well in the future. I'm glad it's getting some attention.
>>146296060
I like the game. The characters are cute and there's nobody in the cast I really dislike.
I guess my thoughts are about the same as yours, really. Maybe someday they'll update the game with more stuff to do.
>>146296060
The game gives you the sort of impression that it's going to be pretty in-depth, but turns out to be pretty standard VN in the way it branches out.
I think a lot of anons are kind of salty over the lack of "reward" in terms of romantic pairings, particularly since the game teased them with hints of it throughout. (I know I was a bit miffed.)
That said, it's still enjoyable. Just not as awesome as I had went into it expecting, but I'm not sure how much of that is just overhyping or overblown expectations on my part.
>>146296037
I still think Donovan is believable. He acts, and even looks like my mom's friend's ex who is also the father of my sister's friend.
Long story, but they act so alike it's fucking uncanny.
>>146296060
I think the LGBT stuff is a bit too much, but it's a non-issue in that it wasn't anthony burch levels of cringe. What pissed me off was the amount of YIIK shilling. The guy who was trying to shill that got nuked off /v/ because he was making a post in every single thread trying to shill it, and it looks like trash.
I'm kind of hoping for either a sequel, or, god forbid, a remaster. Something that fleshes out a bit more on Alice_rabbitWho seems to be Alma anyways, GillianWho also could be Alice_Rabbit under a false name or something, that and the amount of shit he hides means you still have almost no idea what he's up to, Miki needs even more screentime...
I till liked it, but the biggest problem for me is seeing YIIK at all reminds me of how much of a fucking dick that guy was in /v/
>>146296807
Really? I felt the LGBT stuff was almost non-existent in a good way because they just treated it like normal. It wasn't paraded around or anything, at least as far as I can see. It's just there.
>>146296807
>YIIK shilling
A lot more well know devs and games do this all the time. Indie scene they always give nods to other games. Also, what's wrong with YIIK anyways? Looks like a decent platformer.
>>146297130
This. It wasn't sjw propaganda. It wasn't trying to shove it in our faces. It was perfect.
>>146296807
>Alice_rabbit Who seems to be Alma anywaysIt is Alma. When she puts herself on the other side of the bar and she hacks it, you can see a white rabbit with yellow hair for a split second
>>146296060
I think what the game does well, it does very well. The aesthetics and the music mesh really well to paint the cyberpunk setting, and while the bartending itself isn't anything to write home about, they way it enables you to build connections and become familiar with your regulars really mirrors the experience I had making drinks as a barista, so that aspect was really well-done. I also thought the way the game puts you at the edges of the story's action, instead of at the middle, was especially interesting, and I hope to see some more games take this approach going forward.
The writing was probably the weakest aspect imo. The memes weren't constant, as /v/ likes to echo, but some were pretty egregious.SoCal Justice Warriors?I'm still pretty early in, and the characters and their plots are interesting enough to keep me going forward, but the team could've definitely stood to have a more experience writer on board to hand the dialogue.
>>146297406
Yeah, that's the thing I thought, but I still need to know what the fuck Gill's deal was.
>>146297130
I did, too. But proportionately I think there was more than necessary. It was all really well written, so I didn't mind much. Shortly after, it shifted to how shit Glitch City is and it made sense.
>>146297182
YIIK's "aggressive" campaign as well as bringing nothing new to the table except looking like low-poly versions of the numale shit we bombard regularly made me not wanna touch it.
One of my favourite features was truth or dare, though, not gonna lie.
>>146284159
Bump.
Are there any 1920x1080+ game related wallpapers yet?
>>146298725
Someone posted that they have a zip of wallpapers and a zip of avatars, I want those.
>>146297768
How many LGBT characters were there even?
Delivery Boy was gay, Jill swung both ways, and the Vet(Betty?) was a serial heartbreaker lesbian
>>146299332
Streamer-chan was, well, Streamer-chan.
>>146299481
She was just a huge slut though.
I guess you could throw Dorothy in there if you really wanted since she works for both genders.
>>146299481
Didn't Streamer-chan shoot down Dorothy when she propositioned her?
>>146299332
Alma experimented, Alma's sist-brother, Dorothy was bi with a female preference, Dana is a mystery but she also seems to have a bi female-lean.
>>146300131
>Dorothy was bi-leaning female
What? When did that come out?
>>146300131
So basically everyone just swings both ways aside from one or two people.
That's not really a bad thing, as far as I can tell. It wasn't pushed super hard, either.
>>146299332
But it never is given much importance, it's just something that is there.
The idea is that in the future society has moved on and nobody gives much of a fuck, that's it.
Hell, Alma is asked about her taste on girls only for her to reply that she doesn't swing that way, Jill talks about a past boyfriend, it's not given any importance because it's perceived as normal.
Which I feel is completely ok honestly.
I wouldn't have minded Jill being a full fledged dyke. My other favorite cyberpunk protagonist swings probably the same way.
>>146300534
I agree with this viewpoint. People stopped caring because there were more important things to worry about, such as corporate oppression and what-have-you, and matters of gender and sexuality weren't hurting anyone else so why bother.
It felt nice for it just exist without either side making a huge stink of it.
>>146278234
I really hope they can make enough from this to escape that hellhole of a state.
>>146300824
The whole deal is, we're not there yet, and the people fighting for it being faggots isn't going to help the case.
Now, it really does make me wonder what people would be like in 50 years, and if I'll actually be able to get a robot wife when the EU stops fucking with silly laws.
>>146300594
>I wouldn't have minded Jill being a full fledged dyke.
Isn't she? If you get her plastered during beer-drinking on the porch with boss, she admits she finds penises hilarious looking, to the point she blew her first time with a guy by laughing too hard.
Typically if you're a straight girl, you wouldn't find penises so roll-on-the-floor hilarious.
>>146302521
That's shit logic. Gay guys don't find vaginas hilarious, they find them to be terrifying.
Keep in mind she also has a dumb sense of humour and she thinks "Bad touch" is a laugh riot.
>>146302974
>browses danger/u/
>gets flirted with by girls
>has lovey dovey pic with boss on her phone
how the fuck can you even miss this. She's gay, bro.
>>146302974
To be fair, I've met a couple lesbians who think penises are gross but also dumb-looking and funny because of it, so I can sorta see it.
But yeah she laughs at stupid shit on a dime, so she also has just a weird sense of humor.
>>146302974
Well, that, taken with the fact she's called numerous other girls hot and shown interest in multiple girls, but AFAIK, not a single guy in the game.
She has mentioned intimacy with guys in the past, but that wouldn't necessarily make her a current bisexual, just a former bisexual.
What does Kim want that is "something?" Will anything do? Or is it specific and vague?
>>146303298
>browses danger/u/
Donovan browses danger/u/ was well though
>lovey dovey pics of boss
I'm still pissed we didn't get to see those,
>>146303637
Whatever it is that calms people down, Fluffy Dream I think
>>146303637
When I'm not given specific instructions, I always try to match as closely with their previous taste in drinks as possible. (e.g., if someone has a history of liking girly drinks, and asks for something sweet, I always try and get a drink that's girly and sweet). Not sure if it makes a difference though, but no harm in doing it, except maybe $3 less in pay due to not only offering the most expensive drink possible.
For Kim, there's one drink that has the "sober" attribute. Try that.
>>146303652
yes and he's a guy
>implying all posters on 4chan's /u/ board are girls
Is Violated Heroine General finally back?
>>146304263
Yes. So go ahead and post your best sex scene screenshots here.
>And you haven't been able to forgive her after 40 years?
The fuck?
Just how old is Alma?
>>146306163
Better yet, did Alma give Robert the levitation potion?
>>146306293
Is Alma the Wet Nurse?
>>146306986
I don't know butAlma's strongest relationship was with a guy named RobertRobert was the name of a guy who used to work at the bar.Dana tells you later that that the levitation he drank and jumped off a building was, was a success.Also confirmed Dana did catch Kim from jumping off a building.Fuckboy effectively replaced Alma's ex.

She honestly has some of the most amusing conversations, with Dana and her robotic doormat being a close second.

HOLY FUCK THAT WAS CUTE MY HEEAAAAAAAAART
>>146311824
Fuck I meant Betty.
>>146265329
>>146267497
I could understand not getting some of Virgilio's more out there requests like a "17" or "something fake", but how the hell do you not know that the Piano Woman was change to that because outrage, , etc. That shit is right in the dialogue, or it's easy to tell.
Do people not read the dialogue in a dialogue based game?
>>146312787
Isn't that a girl's name?
>>146313835
Yeah I got Betty and Dana mixed up for some reason.
Is there any full-body profile shots of all the characters?
I wanna draw a picture of yuri proportions between Alma and Dana, but I wanna make sure I'm getting their clothes right.
>>146314716
That's one thing that actually kind of triggers my 'tism; the art style and proportions can be all over the place at time.
>>146315014
Great example here with Dana and the Shibas (Even though they're referred to as Corgis many times, and looks more like Corgis than Shibas).
>>146315227
>>146315014
I noticed that, too. There's obviously two artists, and you can tell the person who did Jamie, also did the dogs just because thee shadows are from a different angle and look like pointilization.
But that doesn't help me find full-body shots.
>>146315598
Thereisn't
It's one artist, he's just really inconsistent with his works. If you check the blog or his blog you'll see that a lot of stuff is drawn differently.
>like pointilization
I'm guessing you mean dithering,I think he just got lazy with that.

I think it's a case of his style evolving over time. Take Forehead Lesbian and Robo Doormat for example.
So about how many hours/waifus are available to play right now? I'm revving up the demo after watching a video on it. Looks super fucking comfy and neat.
>>146319375
My playthrough was 16 hours and there's a good selection of waifus to choose from.
>>146319375
Most people are saying the full game has about 20 hours of length.
I'm only one day in, I'm making myself some drinks so I can drink while playing my bartending game.
>>146319375
People say it's 20+ hours give or take a few depending on how much you drank
Aesthetically, VA-11 Hall A > Katawa Shoujo, but KS's prose is magnitudes more palatable than VA-11 Hall A's

THANK YOU
>>146319751
>>146319783
>>146319836
Cool, thanks.
I guess I'll get this shit out of the way early too; Is there some timing thing I'm missing? Do I have to stop before the mixer shakes too fast? Is it the same for every drink?
Trying to make a Piano Woman and the recipe is right, I double-triple check and click age before adding ingredients but it keeps coming out fucked. 5 red, 5 yellow, 2 blue, 3 green and 3 Karmo all aged and mixed?
>>146320798
I had a lot of trouble with this at the start too. Couldn't even pass the tutorial.
If it's a mixed drink, click shake and then IMMEDIATELY stop shaking it. Like half a second.
If it's a blended drink, let it shake for about 5 seconds.
>>146320798
I don't believe it actually mentions it in the demo, but a mixed drink is under 5 seconds and a blended drink is longer than 5.
>>146321046
>>146320960
Right, I didn't see that mentioned anywhere. Got it. Thanks again.
Is the guy that uploaded the flac prologue ost here? Did you get it from bandcamp or from somewhere else? Also you can reduce the size by quite a bit if you don't embed 2MB album art in each file just use a Cover.jpg in the folder every music player that isn't garbage should pick it up.
>>146319375
I'm 8 hours in and just went into part 3
I literally thought I couldn't make blended drinks at the beginning because there was no option to use a blender
not sure how that oversight was made
>Liked XCOM 2

>Find Va-11 Hall-A to be my GOTY so far this year.
And I don't even like VN's. What the fuck? I loved every bit of Va-11 Hall-A. Although I did not like the talking dogs so much. That was a bit too out of place but it did grow on me a little towards the end.
>>146322615
If you didn't pre-order (Since that comes bundled with the Prologue) or if you only played the demo they don't explain the mixing mechanics for what ever reason.
Or maybe Dana does explain it in the start of the game but I already knew what I was doing so I just made a Piano Man and skipped that shit.

I need money. Now.

She literally tells you that she doesn't though, its Bazaar girl.
>>146323804
>>She also fucks Gilliam
No she didnt.
>She's also not real? Or something.
Where the fuck did you get that?
>>146323025
Because the soundtrack is nice, and it has an appealing visual aesthetic. There's some great banter writen in there too.
I've never played a VN in my life either, but I really find myself enjoying the game. Probably helps that I absolutely love the Cyberpunk genre, and this game is chock full of shit that shamelessly panders to what I like.
Although it can be pretty shallow at times, and sometimes there's no sense of consequences.
How do I unlock more music? I unlocked one piece during my first run, the Go Go! Streaming-chan one.

Do you know how fucking hard it is to find porn specifically catering to this? Especially if the flatter one is afuta.
>>146326220
I'm not about that chicks with dicks shit but a couple with breast envy sounds pretty fucking cute
>>146325968
Truly the worst.
>>146326378
Hell, if we forget the futa for just a second I just want fairly flat-ish chicks (not boy-tier though) who date and fuck Alma-tier chicks, if not even more busty and overall curvy.
But no. It just has to be tentacles and vore and scat all day every day. Fucking plebeians around me I swear.
>>146325968
I'm honestly in awe of the fact that the one character in the game that I actually want to be gay isn't
Bravo
>>146326380
So mad
Really love this game. My only complaint is that there should have been more drinks added each chapter or something to advance gameplay a bit.

I know she wears a ribbed sweater, but what's under? Is it actually a ribbed dress or is there jeans or a skirt or what?
looks like i find out only if you playing the new music in ng+ the change gonna happen(you also need to drop way more karmotrine in "decent"way
>>146329564
english motherfucker
>>146329183
I want to say jeans. I wish it was a sweater dress though.
To make a drink without alcohol, you have to choose one with optional karmotrine and then not add any, right? If you choose a drink that doesn't let you add karmotrine, it still counts as alcohol right?
>>146208680
banter is top tier in this country
>>146331221
I thought the way it worked was any drink with the bottom-right ingredient was alcoholic.
>>146278234
the cycle will only be complete if i see some guy selling this game in dvd, along with a bunch of ps2 and xbox games

>>146208680
That's amazing.
I wonder how much is actual references, and how much is just shit we want to see in the same vein as "Le cake xD". Kind of like how when Jamie asks for a Gut Punch and mentions the pun, it makes me think of when Jensen orders a Shanghai Gut Punch from the bartender and he cracks a pun about it.
I want to sniff Jill farts
Id be upset if i paid money for this game.
>>146332813
You could do worse.
Like spend $15 on some shitty drink in a bar.
>>146332813
I personally think it is worth it just so you can say you own vaporware. Honestly I never thought this game would be released.
>>146333289
It's not vaporware if it comes out, is it? I'd rather say that I owned Vaporwave anyways.
>>146325112
Honest to god insanity.
Guys, what does alma like? I can't remember what she's ordered before and she seems not in good mood.

What does the busty droid wants? This is a hint the ghost girl gave me. I imagine its for the miku end and she is said droid but i served everything she asked. Is there a special drink she likes?

It's over. I've been getting flawless every time but I guess you're just supposed to skip out on some of the smaller purchases during the week?
What even happens if you get "distracted"?
Has anyone else experienced the text sound just stopping altogether? I'm nearing the end of Ch. 2 and it just stopped when I changed my resolution, and now it won't start playing again.
>>146335152
Jill wonders about stupid shit like "I wonder how the Boss's hair stays like that". It pretty much means if you spaced out in real life and didn't pay attention to what the customer wanted, or if you're just mashing space with no mind to the dialogue then you're fucked.
>>146334457
>>146335152
When people give you optional drinks that you can pick, you're supposed to sell them the most expensive drink that meets those requirements, for higher commission.
Being distracted just means Jill won't hold your hand when it's time to make drinks.
Example. Dorothy says I WANT A BLUE FAIRY.
You go to the drink menu. Non-distracted Jill goes "A blue fairy, huh?" to remind you.
Distracted Jill goes "MY BRA ITCHES" or some dumb shit.
99% of the time it's not important. HOWEVER, there are some optional paths in the game. Like if Dorothy is all sad and shit and she says "Sugar Rush, please", a non-distracted Jill will say "Sugar Rush? Isn't there some other drink that Dorothy said cheers her up?"
If you're distracted, Jill will just be like "I'M DEGENERATE GARBAGE MY LIFE IS SHIT" and you won't know you have the option to go for a different drink.
>>146335346
>>146335445
I see, thanks.
I was already going for the biggest drinks possible when I had the option, but it still seems like I'm going to come up short.
>>146335445
I swear it effects dialogue too. I think it was when Rad Shiba and Big Shiba are talking about boxes and balls, they just keep going back and forth while Jill just keeps thinking of other shit.
Might have been another conversation.

>>146337504
not all the time, pretty sure it depends on the customer
>>146233084
Originally you could play as either Jill or Gillian, but they chose to focus on Jill. Probably because the game was already at NEVER EVER tier and they had to streamline down to one main character story.
They touch on it in an old blog post.
>>146311824
when does she say this?
>>146335849
I think that dialogue happens no matter what. Jill doesn't really give a shit about the dogs.

you had to use a drink with 17 ingredients
it has only been 1 day and I have seen at least a dozen people, including myself, do the same thing for that guy
really some layton-tier logic going on
What does Alma want after the spicy wings?
I'm planning on buying the vita version for maximum comfyness.
Seems great, but I'll probably have to keep my completionist tendencies in check and just enjoy it for what it is without worrying about my choices & the missed content.
(no seriously please tell me it's not the completionist nightmare it looks like and I'll be realisticaly be able to get all the achievements/endings)
>>146345058
I did the same exact thing since it was the most logical.
Apparently you need to give him a drink with 17 ingredients in it, or was it a drink with 17 Karmotine.
>>146345462
>I'm planning on buying the vita version for maximum comfyness.
Never ever.
In all seriousness though, it can be a little punishing at times. There's only two saves per day; once at the start of the day, and another one halfway though your shift, so you have to backtrack a bit if you realized you fugged up.

>>146346860
I think Spiced Tea worked for me.
I had no idea what to do, since the only hint was "Spiciness in my mouth". So I thought, "fuck it," and chose spiced tea for shits and giggles. But lo and behold, she said
>*phew* ... it helped

Which I'm guessing means I picked right?

>>146346860
Double Beer worked for me.
>>146345440
>>146347091
I gave here a double beer too since it is one of the more logical things to drink with something spicy, like I said earlier.
>>146347050
I think I gave her that drink which makes your tongue feel velvety or something.

I just beat the game and these were the achievements I missed.
Anyone have any clue on these?
I have no Idea how I didn't get the never distracted achievement.

>>146348738
great, now post the one of Jill sitting below that.
>>146347596
Oh, alright.
I actually don't drink because I've seen people drink themselves dead, and I live with an abusive drunk. I just like the crafting idea. Getting told this sort of thing is extremely helpful.
So why were we the only ones who could see the ghost-hologram-nanite cloud-thing?
I got the Dorothy ending which is supposed to provide closure to that and I learned nada, aside from the fact that kid was a baller.

Apparently getting evicted leads to the bad end, and serving nothing but sugar rushes gets you a game over.
I got Dorothy, Alma, and Good Ends in one game just by paying my bills and serving the right drinks at the right time.
Helping Dorothy through her existential crisis probably gets you her end, no idea what exactly leads to Alma's besides not being a pussy and facing Gabby at the New Years party.

It's been like two days so everyone that bought it probably really wanted it. More negatives will come in the longer the game is out.
Hell a good review will still have some negatives in it even if they overall like the game.

Also although it's not exactly Venezuelan nor is it what the sign says, torta frita is analgous to frybread (which I actually never knew existed) in America.
>>146351005
>torta frita
Well that explains alot, I googled torta FRIA not FRITA so I got completely different shit.
>>146351140
I'm pretty sure the joke is that it's FRIA not FRITA because of how shit Venezuela is
>>146351140
No you read the sign right, it says fria.
It would normally mean "free", but fria is also the feminine version of frio which would mean "cold"; I didn't really pay attention that well in freshman Spanish, nor do I remember much of it anyways so take that as you will.

I've only scratched the surface of Ch. 3, but I want to say it's becauseShe was obsessed with occult shit when she was young. I mean that's some Chekhov's Gun shit if I ever saw it, and almost everything mentioned so far in this game is brought up at some point later on.
are the endings the bits you get after the credits?
Is this the first thread or did I miss one before?
Also do I need to play the prologue (https://kiririn51.itch.io/va11proto) before playing the main game?
Is it like a separate thing?
Or is the "demon" version a new prologue from their itch page?
Or can I just jump into the game and there's nothing different to see there.

Yes

I mean demo version.
How did that autocorrect even happen?
>>146355858
>Is this the first thread or did I miss one before?
This is, like, thread #23, if you count the /v/ threads (which move like four times faster).
Also, is it me or is everyone cybernetic armed? Boss and Alma both have projectile fists ("Rocket Punch"), Dorothy has gun fingers, and I won't even guess what the big cyborg assassin guy is packing.
is it possible to get an ending where the protag fucks the boss? I got a good ending, but it was the stupid ebin hackergrill bff ending that answered no questions and felt like shit
>>146356753

Whaat?
There's nothing in the archive.
Did they all get reported or something.
>>146356871
Okay, maybe I exaggerate. But there has been for sure at least... six threads? Most on /v/ rather than /vg/ though.
At least one wasn't actually titled properly (that, and the game title is really easy to misspell, so it's pretty easy to miss some in search)
>>146356852
i paid my bills, i saw some retarded clips at the end of the thing about alma and loliwhore, and a clip of the bar crew going on vacation. Peetty sure it was generic good end
>>146355858
It explains the basics of how the game works, how to mix drinks, and adds in a couple of characters that you'll see later on in the full release.
It's been out for over a year so you should be able to find a DL.
This is also the first official /vg/ general, or at least to my knowledge. There's been a lot of threads on /v/, but it's your run of the mill /v/ shitposting now.
>>146357403
It's nice to see a thread that actually discusses the game and isn't just "MEME GAME LMAO DAY 1 PIRATE"
>>146357612
Yeah well, slower threads on a slower board for a small first-time indie game will be like that.
/v/ probably just wants to rave about how they wanna make Jill straight or something.
this is so fucking cute
>>146357736
You'd be surprised actually. There are lot of people complaining that you can't fuck the girls as Jill.
>>146357612
I think having the ability to say negatives is at least a good thing. If it was just some giant hugbox where we all felated the devs then it'd be no better than those "safe spaces".
>>146358225
While I see your point, I'm just wary of that slippery slope of constructive criticism just turning into mean-spirited name-calling and the likes and turning into the standard shitty game thread. I like what we got here so far.
I wish I was Jill. I've always wanted to be someone like herand a girl

>>146358225
I don't have a problem with people criticizing the game. It's just annoying that they just focus on the memes and blow it out of proportion.
Of all the drinks I can do by memory, why is it beer and not something simple like a Sugar Rush? Is it because it has a pattern of 1-2-1-2-4/2-4-2-4-8 or some shit?
Dorothy is glitching the fuck out and I need "something to throw at her," what do I do? Sober her up? Give her anything and make it pricey for my rent?
>>146358994
Why don't you save and find out yourself.

>>146358390
if you're worried about "constructive criticism just turning into mean-spirited name-calling"
You should avoid everything creative on this earth
Quick question as a non native speaker.
I just started but the dialogue box started to say something like.
>maybe if i dial up those ingredients a bit...
or
>he seems to like it, maybe if i dial it up a little bit...
What does that mean?
Do I need to do something different with the request?
I don't know what the hell dial up can mean here
I only know it's an internet connection type
>>146359582
Increase the amount.
Probably means make it "Big" in this case.
>>146359582
It means to add more. To make it stronger.
>>146359582
"Dial it up" is a term used to mean "to increase something", as in you're turning up a dial.
As others already said, it probably means to double the size of the drink.

Things are looking pretty grim for me in regards to rent. If you fail can you go to new game plus? I want to know if I should just abandon hope and blow all my cash on room stuff because I heard that gets carried over.
Am I an idiot for chuckling whenever MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON scrolls across the screen?

One of the drunk dogs from the prologue says that to you. Jill interprets it as the dog wanting a big Moonblast.
>>146360307
Pretty sure it's just some shit from the prologue where drunk corgis would randomly walk up and as for a moonblast by saying MOOOOOOOOOOON.
I don't know. I'm a man of simple memes.
>>146360409

>>146359846
Oh I see, so just add more shit.
Got it.
Also a question about mixing and blending.
Is it worth to keep mixing until the last second or it doesn't matter?
And does blending for longer do anything or as soon as it goes into blending that's good enough already.
>>146360467
It doesn't matter how long you mix/blend.
Why is this game so fucking comfy.
>>146360505
[x] marry the boss
>>146360495
That's not true.
If you mix for like 1 second then you fuck up the drink, there's some certain time you need to mix it for. Not sure about blending.
KIRA!
>>146360505
When do we get to cuddle with the boss? Dorothy cuddling night implied good stuff though.
>>146360607
I mix beer for like a nanosecond and it still turns out fine.
>>146360607
>That's not true
It most certainly is true.
For mixing, you can speed right through it.
For blending you have to wait like 4 seconds, but once the bottle shakes faster you're good to go.
>>146360645
TETSOU!
>>146360467
You can just double tap mix if the recipe says mixed, and right as it speeds up for blend.
>>146360505
I wish the scan lines were smaller, and it added other things that make an old CRT looks like an old CRT. Noise, distortion, changes in saturation, etc.

>I wish I was Jill. I've always wanted to be someone like her
She's pretty much a self insert for at least one of the two devs; devs which are from /agdg/.
When this shit snowballs, you're going to see tumblr posts with people going "OMG. THIS GIRL. LITERALLY ME. CaNt eVEn djaDJADJAF"
So what's with the obsession about that shitty nu-male hipster game? They reference it 3 times in the game with the two cosplayers, the toy and a news bulletin about it.
I thought our devs were cool.
>>146362220
>When this shit snowballs
lol
>>146362538
Same publisher.
>>146362538
The devs probably liked the game and wanted to feature it. I don't really get why they're shamelessly endorsing it either, but eh what ever.
>>146362538
Just ignore it
>>146362710
I didn't think so at first since the Steam page for Ysbryd only shows Vallhalla and some other game called Masquerade, but sure enough it says so on the Yiik dev's Wordpress. I guess that must have been part of the publishing contract.
Also their main website is pure fucking eye cancer and who ever was in charge of designing it should be tied up Clockwork Orange style and forced to browse it.
How can you trust a game to be good if they can't even design their website right?
>>146362969
>Ignore this thing they're blatantly advertising in their own game
ok
>>146363096
Fuck my eyes.
Is this 1999?
>>146363341
Considering the devs for YIIK seem to be stuck in that era, yes.
It's honestly like they watched Scott Pilgrim (Not read, because that's too hard), played some Life Is Strange, and then someone said "Guys I have a game idea".
Why isn't there a dialogue/event tree like there was in the prologue?
That would make things much easier than saving every single time and trying all 5261 drinks on everything to see if any of them do something different.

Gee buddy, you think a signal jammer could I dunno, interrupt a damn livestream? That and all the text that flies past at that moment mentions stuff like "IT'S ALL STATIC! MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON"
>>146368660
Honestly didnt notice that. I was just staring how cute Dorothy and Streaming are.
So who Virgillo actually was? I didnt get his ending. I just know that he "rescued" Sei and Stella somehow and opened a curry stand.
Drinks are only alcoholic if they have karmotrine right? Would that make bleeding jane the most expensive non-alcoholic one?
>>146368660

I'm honestly not sure if when they say this it's supposed to be a MOOOOT or a ⊂二二二( ＾ω＾)二⊃ BOON~ reference
>>146369161
He was the one that rescued the two from the valkyrie thatgouged Stella's eye outand kicked Sei cold.
Maybe the MOOOOOOOOOOOON reference is about hiroshima
Since he is a japanesemootanyway
/v/enezuelan dev, I know you're in here
>>146369381

>>146369530
Fuck I really messed up then since I didnt even know it was a valkyrie that did that.
>>146369381
>>146369698
It's a reference to the corgi doggies Jil served in the prologue, the screamed MOOOOOON asking for moonblast.
They reference them in the demo also, she says "well at least I don't have to serve the corgi dogs today since we have no clients".
Anyone know how certain endings are triggered exactly? Second run and I am not sure if I'm supposed to serve everyone wrongly or just get one drink right

That's really disappointing for some reason

>>146370638
Oh I should play the prologue and demo. I think I got all the endings but Miki's so I need to do that first. Are there endings for Donovan, the detective and the guy that lost his daughter?
>>146358938
>Is it because it has a pattern of 1-2-1-2-4/2-4-2-4-8 or some shit?
Maybe that, but it's probably because it was the first thing they make you serve to a customer twice in a row, and it literally becomes "the usual" for the next couple days.
The opening part of video games are a lot more memorable and stick with you the most. Sort of like how everyone can remember the exact layout of levels 1 - 1 and 1 - 2 of Super Mario Bros and rarely anything past that. Or maybe everyone just wants to make Mr Donovan happy deep down.

>>146382697
I'm chatting a bit with one of the devs right now and he's being really kind, answering any questions I have. Of course, I had to know about Alma, and some other stuff. This is probably the first time in years I see developers glad to speak with fans.
>>146383182
Ask when full body portraits are coming
>>146383865
"i'll release their designs after trading cards/steam wallpapers are up"
Sort of asked that earlier, but we'll see them in all their glory soon enough.
>>146383182
They seem like chill dudes. If they're reading this right now, I want them to know I really enjoy their game and wish them the best from here.
Also, advice: You straddled the waifu line really well, so if you plan on doing a similar game in the future, keep what you did here in mind. But also add some more in-depth romance I guess. The Boss felt like a tease.
Wait holy shit, I just got that she's a reference to The Boss. Fuck.
Do any other characters besidesGaby appear on the main menu screen with Jill?
Can't believe I took the time to look up that binary code from the article.
Was it a reference to something?
I don't get it.
>>146384527
I did the same. It's flavor text, other things mention a Retribution as well if you look for it.
>Sandals + Socks is against the law
>Jeans + Skirt is legal
FUCK QUINCY
>>146385010
isn't she supposed to be missing an arm?
>>146384527
The bank attack happens on the 17th, which is the date alluded to in those alice_rabbit style retribution messages posted on danger/u/ and in the paper.
Of course, in the prologue there is a newspaper article about alice_rabbit impersonators being caught by the original, so it isn't necessarily her "retribution".
BecauseAlma wouldn't deliberately hurt all those people, right?
>>146385220
They don't mention that in the main game and you don't find out really, unless you played the demo. You then find out it'sbecause of the same thing that killed Jill's ex-girlfriend.
>>146385220
Holy fuck is she
Finding ref to draw is hell at this early point of the game
Don't mind me, I'll just be committing sudoku for the dishonour I have brought to /vhg/

So I don't get to play as Gilian and fuck Dorothy?
Who's this Jil chick and why do I care
What the fuck this is not what I was expecting from this game, bummer

>>146385010
What does his butt smell like?

>>146385384
Mind, there was the blue and red assassins that Art Von Delay was chasing that were probably involved in the bank attack. Gil also fucked off shortly before then so you know he's somehow involved.
The story seems to suggest that it was related toAlma setting up leaks to screw up the corporation that runs the white knights since there was a lot of internal corruption, the bank incident just happened to be related to it. Remember thatA lot of the white knight suits all got disabled shortly after the bank incident which is probably something only a skilled hacker can doAlsowhat the hell was the static message that was being broadcasted to Lilims that caused Dorothy's existential crisis? Did Alma do that, or was it the new group?I think Gil and Alma worked together for it.
>>146385687
QUINCY? Nanomachines and money
>>146385905
I bet he played college ball.
>>146385778
I'm fairly sure the Lillum broadcast was a nod to "I, Robot"
It was likely Lillith interfacing with them all simultaneously.
Oh FUCK no
>>146385656
Hmmmmm I don't know about that.
So far Jil just seems like a basic bitch, not a fan of her personality at all.
Gilian was much more smooth and fun.
And also there's the fact that I can't get laid and even if I could it would be yurishit.
This game needs a miracle to be saved in my eyes.
>>146385778
The suits were disabled by the company themselves. They were preinstalled with a kill switch
>>146385778
The servers with the data were physically in the bank and required local access, iirc.I think the disabling came form the corp itself in response to them going rogue. She might be good, but the subsequent 'gold rush' lets you know that the production methods used in the white knight suits isn't anywhere easily available, and certainly nowhere where it would be networked. If it was on the network it would be in the leak showing they stole technology from other people like it is implied/suspected, without the rush to reverse engineer.
>>146385778
Wasn't the suits deactivation bit just the internal killswitch made so the technology isn't reverse-engineered? Because I'm pretty sure that's what Stella told me.What's up with her eye though?
>>146386163
NO WAIT THIS IS WORSE
>>146386359
Oh boy, I bet you thought you were getting a romance VN didn't you? The demo and Prologue spells it out clearly, it's comfy sim with no banging. At this point, there's really no saving it for you since you assumed it was the wrong genre in the first place
>>146386359
Never played the prologue, so I can't really compare he to Johnface proper. But Jill's a pretty nice character in my opinion. Relatable as someone who's content not being figured out by others, and putting on a professional face. Or at least, she thinks she's satisfied that way.
>>146386575
Stella's? It's explained.
>>146386575
>What's up with her eye though?The attack where Sei was saved by a white knight also involved stella. The guy that attacked them ripped her eye outThe white knight that saved them was Virgilio

>>146386819
Nice. Thanks for the answer! I tend lose enthusiasm when it comes to new game + in general.
>>146386703
Well not really.
I guess the prototype just made it seem that way so you can't blame me.
And I enjoyed the characters there more compared to what I got here so far, I'm up to where Dorothy is introduced right now.
I dunno, it was a much more quiet and dim-lit atmosphere with Gil at the stand and Dorothy being more playful, the assassin guy was super nice too.
So far this game is just a girl I don't really relate too as she's just far too normal I guess.
And the bar seems more hectic to me now, the redhead delinquent guy was pretty interesting but everyone else is just mildly annoying at best.
Even Dorothy is acting differently, like she had a personality 180.
Gil had more mystery around him.
I dunno, I guess that's what I get for jumping onto a game 2 years after the last build.
I guess I just expected more of what I got with continuation, not a completely different thing.

Imagine having your own personal Tay on your computer and feeding her heaps and heaps of romance VN scripts instead of /pol/ shit. Hell, throw in Cortana functionality on top of that so you can actually talk to her.

>>146403037

I'm so fucking confused, is she someone Jill used to know? Is she just there to break the forth wall?
>>146403204
kek nice
I love this game but I'm so fucking confused...
Who is Anna and why does she act so goddamn smug all the time?
How the hell can I fulfill my dream of fucking Dana?
How do you even get the different endings? I'm assuming not paying your rent would drastically change things, but other than that I'm not sure.
GUIDE WHEN?!
>>146403260
I dunno. Her inclusion and then her doing NOTHING makes me feel we got an incomplete game. Same thing with the alice rabbit stuff going on, and even getting an apartment splash screen with hacked alice-related text, but then never finding anything out about that. Everything after the Bank conclusion was just a huge shift in direction. Nothing really happened aside from Jill getting an Imouto.
But someone brings up the name Graem in a conversation with Jill at some point and it's familiar but she can't place why. I think it was Dorothy talking about her mom's dead daughter which would imply that's who Anna is, but I don't completely remember for sure if Dorothy was the one who brought the name up.
Can you only get different endings besides getting evicted in NG+ ? I didn't bother making saves for every single day.
>>146403752
Serve all of the right drinks for the right people at the right time and you unlock their ending scenes. Not paying the rent gives you the bad ending which is the only one that locks out other ending scenes.
>>146403752
Not paying your rent overrides all the other endings and you get one where you crash at Alma's place and share her bedwhere nothing happens and Jill wishes she stayed at Dana's instead.
>Dorothy whores herself out to weirdos constantly
>Still manages to be one of the best characters
How can a whore be so based? Just a shame I'd never let my dick near her.
>>146403957
I thought Alice_Rabbit was Alma. When she hacks Jill's station the Rabbit insignia pops up in the middle of the screen very quickly.
What the fuck does Virgilio want when he asks for purity? Does it have something to do with this 4th bottled drink I'm missing in the top left?

>>146404914
I remember giving pure Adelhyde to a Corgi. Is that still even a possibility?
>>146405098
Dunno. Try it sometime someone asks for something sweet
>>146405098
Sadly no.
You also can't serve drinks that aren't in the book like you could in the demo.

>Anna is Dorothy's mom's dead daughter
Then why is she so focused on Jill?
>>146403957Dorthy's guardian had a daughter who was going through nanomachine rejection treatment, and she was hit by a truck after she got out of treatment because what else would fucking happen.
Played this until a little after the first break. This game has such a comfy atmosphere it made me go take a shit, the kind you need to take after getting some interior chills.
Would anybody happen to know what the fonts used for the game are?
>>146404914
>Fake = Beer
Fake is Frothy Water. Beer was the first thing I tried for the fake one and it's incorrect
>Pure = The drink with 1A and 9K
and Fringe Weaver was the first thing I tried for the pure one and gets the same 'incorrect' response as Beer
>>146405825
Should be the same ones as the Prologue used, which are in the pic.
>>146405974
Rum
>>146406059
nope, not Zen either
>>146406178
Really? I chose rum and got 0 mistakes that shift.
holy fuck the ending was so abrupt
Seems we hit the bump limit in /vg/. Someone should make a new thread.
>>146406353
I really feel like the game is unfinished.
>>146268191
Anything 17 ingredients afaik.
And I haven't managed to get the "fake"-one wrong yet, he just applauds your non-effort.
Same with the pure.
>>146405337
I'd say "because Jill is the only one who can see her" but there was that Lilim too so I have no idea. I feel like it's either
>poorly thought out or they just said fuck it
>actually thought out, but reasoning withheld out of forgetfullness or so they can make a sequel
>it IS in the game, but it's behind unravelling various 2deep4u thoughts like the old "what if we're dead and don't know it" shtick that we hear from at least 3 characters throughout the game
I'm about to start NG+
Is there a guide out there I can consult for Dorthy ending? I got the one where Imade up with the ex's sister and stayed in my apartment.
>Annadidn't really turn out to be anything other than a nanomachine ghost (unless I missed something)
>who the fuck was the pretentious snob with the question mark, and what was his connection to Sei and Stella?
>what happened with the detective?
>Ingram needed one more scene and didn't get it
>Sei sort of just dissapears after reuniting with Stella
>Streamer-chan only gets two scenes
>Lilim transmissions weren't really explained despite seeming connected with Dorothy's sudden existential crisis
>New Year's party felt like it was blatantly axed at the last minute
FUCK. I can't say the ending (I think I got the Dorthy ending?) felt too incomplete because it wrapped up Jill's character development okay, but fuck if it didn't feel sudden. Everything was building up really well and it felt like things were on the verge of another bank incident with the Lilim, and then nothing.
All that said, I really think what the game did provide was incredible. They really nailed the feeling of being in the eye of an oppressive cyberpunk storm, while showing what it's like from the viewpoint of a bartender as opposed to a keyboard cowboy or razor girl. All of the characters were likable and provided a keyhole into the world outside of the bar, and Jill herself helped act as anchor for what was "normal" within the context of the story. Dorothy was in fact a loudmouth, and Streamer-chan was in fact fucking bonkers. Hopefully, the other endings clear up -some- of the above, but it feels like they ended up building a world much bigger than they had anticipated. The shit like the clad in black bounty hunter, the bank incident, the Knights, all of that was knock out stuff, but it seemed like it would keep going for at least a little longer.
>>146406780
>that lilim
Fuck I forgot about her. So many loose ends. Sequel when?
>>146406837
no guides yet
>>146406876
Pretentious snob I have a small hunch was SUPPOSED to be the man who saved Sei from the rubble after the bank incident, but he doesn't mention it. Suddenly his personality is changed and he just disappears off the face of the Earth.
I feel like this game is missing like a chapter or two MGSV Style.
>>146406876
>>Streamer-chan only gets two scenes
good
>achievement broken
>can't even know which ending I got
Thanks veneco
>>146406780
>>146406943
That random lilim might have had some special 4th wall video game powers since her group was a reference to a real life video game as well, and not really any relevance to the plot
Then again how the fuck are we supposed to know what has relevance and what doesn't. Anna doesn't really to have any, herself.
>>146406876
>>146407157
You just served some drinks wrong. Snob is the white knight that rescued Sei and Stella from a violent white knight that ripped out Stella's eye.
Drawfag here again, thread is about to collapse so I'll wait for the new one to post the first sketch I did.
>>146407157
>>146406876
I don't remember exactly what he said, but that guy said something RIGHT before the bomb went off that made me feel like he was in on whatever the fuck was going on, yet fucking NOBODY found that suspicious at all. Stella, Gil, Jaimie, and (maybe?) Sei all recognized him but couldn't place from where.
Also, fun fact. He's based off this fat fuck.
I beat the game but I didn't get any ending achievements, I don't know what ending I got, what does that mean? I also go flawless service everyday but I didn't get the achievement.
>>146407464
Alma and Jill cuddling, please.
Make sure to give Alma her very very ample bosom too.
>>146407247
How did it end?
If you went on vacation, you got the good end.
If Dorothy and Ghost girl talked to you, you got Dorothy's end.
If you, Alma, and Gabby had a sleepover, you got Alma's end.
If you got evicted, bad end.
I think it's time for a new thread.
>>146407724
Dorothy
>>146407724
Not that OP, but I got both the vacation to Panama with Dana and the sleepover with Alma and Gabby. I'm assuming you could also get Dorothy's end with the good end as well?
>>146407831
This
And let's make a fucking guide for certain drinks
>>146407562
Any actual proof he is based on that fat fuck? Not that I'm doubting but the guy in VA-11 is actually based unlike Cuckling.
>>146407843
>>146407885
Wait, I did go on vacation and also talked with Dorothy and the ghost..
>>146406960
So lets get a FAQ Going then.
>Its getting close and I'm not going to make rent, what happens if I skip on buying something and Jill is unfocused?
She won't repeat the order when you're on the drink screen. If you have a decent memory, this won't be a problem.
>Give me a drink where they changed the name
Piano Woman
>Drink named after a good friend
Piano Man
>What drink is 17?
Any drink that has 17 ingredients. Try a sugar rush and add alcohol until you get there.
>Sei asks for a Bloody Jane, but Jill thinks otherwise?
Give her something non-alcoholic. Blue Fairy or Sugar Rush should be fine.
Any other common ones you think should be included?
>>146407724
It gave me:
the vacation with boss
dorothy with anna
alma and gabby sleepover
and curry stand with virgilio
no achievements gained

>Today’s update is about a new character based on the God’s gift that is Jim Sterling, named after his alter-ego Virgilio Armarndio… which is some sort of pretentious art critic, and I love him.
>>>>>>God's gift that is Jim Sterling
>>146408113
I wonder if that description is being playful or patronizing.
>>146407980
Alma's favorite drink is Brandtini or whatever that was. Dorothy is cheered by Piano Woman and she would order Blue Fairy.
