Thank god. The previous thread triggered my autism every time I looked at the OP.

JOPs are pink-haired sluts?
I still like lolis.
Chara is here with another decision for you to make that you'll LOVE!
This time, he offers to send you and your 2D or 3D waifu to a paradise where you can spend a year with her with no one else to disturb you. Everything you need to survive + all utilities will be provided, and you will also have internet service. Your waifu will also obviously be in love with you.
However, your waifu will die from incurable keyaids at the end of the year. She will be perfectly healthy for the first 11 months, but at the last month her health will rapidly deteriorate. Both you and your waifu will know about this.
Finally, a year after your waifu dies the world will be erased, obviously resulting in your death as well as the deaths of everyone else on the planet.
13th for Saber.

Just be a necromancer. Or a necrophiliac, whichever works for you.In some cases both.
>>148010163
Some bastard thought that this was too specific and not the tray holding tag.
Has anyone here made a visual novel?
>>148009504
So how hyped are you for 大迷宮&大迷惑?
It's the upcoming Liar-soft title written by 希. The premise is rather 王道, with a huge dungeon appearing one day with the protagonist (plus girls he'll fuck or see tentacle fucked) setting out to conquer it, but the main hook is 希's text.
希's an accomplished writer known for his style reminiscent of early 20th century Japanese authors, and his previous games like 霞外籠逗留記 or 信天翁航海録. In an interview about 大迷宮&大迷惑 he says he takes inspiration mainly from 80's fantasy and dungeon crawlers, so it's gonna be really interesting to see how he makes it work with his highly literary writing style.
Revelant quote:
> 自分がかつて熱中した剣と魔法の冒険譚(ソード&ソーサリー)で、地下迷宮(ダンジョン)というジャンルを、この現在にどう蘇らせるか? そして、近年の作品で既に同様の試みはされているとは思いますが、それをライアーソフトとして、希というライターとしてどう料理するのか? という点です。このジャンルが国内で興隆したのは1980年代後半からだと思います。
So writing kanji is a thing now? I turn them into objects and stuff to try and remember the Kanjis. Like 映画 is a signal tower and a sofa+TV. It's pretty dumb but it works I guess
>>148013741

I was wondering how feasible it is to play VNs on an android tablet? Is it possible to run the PC version on a tablet or is there an android version for most VNs? Can someone please help out?
>>148013791
Google mnemonics.
>>148013856
Nope, only with a Windows tablet at most.
>>148013930
Don't people find it uncomfortable sitting for hundreds of hours playing VNs on a PC? That's why I'm interested in playing on a tablet.
>>148014101
I usually sit back and play on auto read.
>>148014101
No. Get a better chair.
>>148014101
No, I have a very comfortable chair.
>>148014101
I lay down on my bed with a laptop.
>>148014154
>>148014164
Not him, but what chair do you anons have?
>>148014214
The non-leather Ikea MALKOLM.
>barely any hype for my upcoming erection
>>148014568
It is an edited machine translation, anon. Don't go there!
What the fuck did I just read.
Amazing horror stuff going on, scared shitless. Suddenly MC appears with "Lilith"(fucking really) and uses super duper chunni powers to punch the enemy to death.
Oh and then a bimbo angel appears and something about some super highschool that's not a highschool.
It seriously blindsided me, didn't expexct if to go full retard in 2 seconds, but anyways should I continue to read it?
>>148014736
Definitely not.
>>148014736
>reading EOP VNs
>not expecting high-school shit in every goddamn title
lol
>>148013856
There's stuff like onscripter and visual novel reader but they only work with certain visual novels.
I agree that reading on a tablet is the comfiest way to read vns.
>>148014736
Yes, it's kamige.
>>148014759
>>148014923
Well which one is it?
>>148014810
I don't mind highschool setting is just that "Lilith" annoyed me with her chunnispeak and whatnot, also other characters seem fucking generic.
>>148015010
It's one of the worst releases in years. The guy constantly shilling it here works for the company.
>>148014736
Protag-kun is like a worse version of Yuuji. Has no emotions BUT isn't funny, fuck that guy. Keep reading and see how far you last
>>148013741
no steampunk, no good
Koiken Otome is going to take another fucking year just to finish the patch.
>>148015057

I wanted to give it a shot because he has Durararagi's voice but yeah I don't think i'll enjoy it. I'll try a bit more though.
Maybe I should just read Dies irae

>>148015816
No, but I was reading some.
>>148015584
He'll someday start leading a healthy life and consequently will turn SP into a respectful company.

Is Dragon Age visual novel?
>>148015816
Dunno, does VA-11 Hall-A qualify as a VN?

>>148015584
Please don't get my hopes up
>>148016292
It's hard to deny its creation is likely inspired by the recent popularity of RPG-y (isekai) LNs, but with Mareni writing, you can be sure it'll be something special.

I love this game so far but damn does the wandering nature of this game irk me. Policenauts had a better way of proceeding to the next event, geez.
>>148020320
why would u play that ugly shit when the remake is about to come out lmao
>>148020350
Why would anyone play Kanon? Probably for the story, not the art.
>>148020350
1. My Japanese isn't good enough to play a new release yet
2. I dig the 90s aesthetic.
>>148020421
nobody plays key games for the art, except maybe LB
>>148020350
The remake will never be translated.
>>148020489
so? why would u read it in translation lol
>>148020562
Because Japanese isn't a real language. Only being getting translated into English does it become worth reading.
>>148020712
>superior words folded over a thousand times
>not a real language

>>148013741
>tentacle fucked

>>148014736
The highschool isn't relevant at all. You don't get all the usual tropes and shit. You'll be done with it pretty quickly.
It's still a very good VN, provided you're open-minded and don't go "what the hell this sucks" at everything weird, it's a chuuni after all.
Read it if you're into big battles, good comedy and original setting. The VN is amazing when it comes to mythology and it's definitely a breath of fresh air in that aspect.

Why do people have difficulty with kanji stroke order?
What's so hard about "from the top to the bottom, from the left to the right"?
>>148022646
>this again
stop
kindly go to appropriate boards and threads to discuss this
>>148022646
>writing kanji
lol
Some but not all of these things actually happen at some point during Baldr Sky! Can you guess which ones?
In the game of Baldr Sky, Kadokura Kou will...
>have sex with his mom!
>kill his dad!
>discover a virtual reality inside of a virtual reality, and declare that he needs to go deeper!
>cause the Feds to nuke Japan!
>become a being of pure energy and transcend the mortal realm of existence!
>create a back-up of himself in cyberspace that will activate if he dies - only for the back-up to activate itself and take over his life!
>become a brain in a jar, living only through his connection to the Net!
>travel backward in time to an alternate dimension to get a happy ending!
>become an astronaut!
>become the nanomachines!
@above me
no one cares
>>148022646
Because sometimes there are weird things like the 臼 radical having different stroke order depending on the kanji
Or the 厂 radical and kanji like 滅
Or 左 and 右
Or 全 and 金
>>148020350
>not liking the vaporwave aesthetic
>tfw EOP but started to shit on other EOPs to feel better about myself
No one must know my secret.
>>148023448
Me too, but I started learning Japanese.
Join the master race anon.
>>148023118
日本語は難しいね
Japs should just forget about kanji and start using a writing system that actually makes sense. They don't even need to come up with one, they already have kana.
>b-but muh homophones
Fuck off, every language has homophones, that's what context is for.
>>148023797
Japanese is a mess of a language, I have no interest in languages with shitty structure just like that. I would rather learn German or Russian instead.
>>148023797
It would be damn ugly with dozens of kana around. Kanji is a bitch but it makes the sentences short and allows you to easily see the particles
>>148023983
Learn Portuguese. É uma língua banana.

>>148024083
the korean language is much better than the japanese language, japanese is a fuck up to begin with
>sex after confession
Why did Takeru pick the slut?
>>148024449
>sex after confession
Literally one of the most common tropes in eroge 2bh. Also I forgot, who's the slut again?
>>148023983
Aber Deutsch ist ebenfalls schwer zu lernen und du kannst keine Kamiges damit lesen. (Mal von Unteralterbach abgesehn)
I wish moogy would show up and bully all of you trashing the Japanese language
>>148025153
Do EOPs deserve basic rights?
>>148023649
いいえ、かんたんなことだ
>>148025153
But the japanese language is trash you fucking weeboo.
>>148025680
Sour grapes...
>>148025445

He isn't fat anymore but that is him, yes
>>148026671
How do you know? Has he posted updated pics?
>>148026773
Yo.
>>148026925
That's older, though. Like really old. Pretty sure >>148026041 is more current.
So he's gotten fatter, not skinnier.
Why is /vn/ so dead? Should I go to /jp/ to talk about vns for now?
>>148026041
>>148026671
>>148026925
WHY? Is he legitimatly autistic or something?
>>148027031
Why do you need us to tell you what to do
Do whatever you want faggot
>>148027125
I love the EOPs here.
>>148027031
If you want to talk about /vn/s, just talk about vns, it`s not that hard.
As far as I am concerned almost anything worth discussing has already been discussed, so I am content with shit-tier celeb talk until new HYPE or some shitty other game is released.
>>148027025
But he looks much younger in >>148026925

>>148028514
Wow, slut.
Who is the worst vn mc ever and why is it Yuuji from Grisaia?
>>148028723
I don't Harumi either visually (or kyonyuu characters in general) but Fuyune is great you fag!
>>148029327
Takumi from Chaos Head and because you can't accept it when someone is better than you. You're going to have to grow up and realize that includes about 90% of the world's population one day, though.
>>148028085
Man that vn was shit
>>148028085
what vn?
I haven't been here since like 2 months ago
do we know what vn conjeuror is translating now?
>>148029480
is it already translated am i missing out on something?
>>148029527
Nope
>>148029527
no. soon, though.
probably next month at Otakon or sometime after that
>>148029527
That better be that game with the girl with the silly faces.
>>148029605
I have no idea if it's translated but I hope to god no one waste their effort on translating it.
>>148030018
then why the fuck are we talking about it on here? i had my hopes up but you people are asshoes
>>148030091

>>148029480
It's actually v good albeit weirdly paced, I heard the "sequel" fixes that and is more consistently entertaining.
>>148031154

難しいです
>>148023797
Kanji's use only really shines through when you're reading pure text. And be grateful to your American overlords. If they hadn't limited the amount of common Kanji during their post-WW2 occupation there'd be more bullshit Kanji in use today.
>>148031154
i can give you several reasons
>japanese is shit
>99% of VNs are shit
>i'm not a fat fuck loser like most of you people here are
>i play other games as well, in fact, there are lots of Chinese and Korean games out there that i've still yet to play
>i'm not autistic and weeaboo enough to be this disgusting
the only thing good about japan is their culture, their language is shit. why should i?
>>148031154
Well, even the best visual novel, Fate/stay night, is shit. At least according to our god-emperor Moogy. So why should I learn Japanese if all visual novels are garbage even in their native language?
Daily reminder that Witcher is the best VN lads.
>>148031154
I'm trying to graduate. I'll finish core2k next week. Meanwhile I'm reading Maitetsu common route. Those train-related kanji is mindfuck though.
>>148031154
Ya lo hice.
>>148031469
Because language is not part of a country's culture.
Yep, you are retarded.
>>148031602
God bless your soul. I hated those segments.
>>148031489
>FSN is worse than FHA
>somehow the best visual novel
LOL?
>>148031602
>reading Maitetsu this early
That's some dedication. Should've went with MonoBueno if you don't mind the slow speed, it's a much better VN than Maitetsu desu
>>148031660
why? do you need to know russian to know the russian culture?
fuck off retard
>>148031587
Books are better.
>>148031709
>Monobeno
Sorry not all of us are disgusting pedos
>>148031757
cyka blyat :^)
>>148031709
I hear Monobeno is pretty fucking long. I'm also not a fan of sex scenes in Lose's games.
>>148031681
Yeah they're unbearable although I imagine it'd be a more pleasant experience if I'm better versed in Japanese. I think I'll go for Hibiki's route first since hers has the least amount of trainspeak.
>>148031873
You're reading Maitetsu and you claim not to be a disgusting pedo?
>>148031873
Nice reading comprehension Canada.
>>148031757
You just said their culture is the only good thing they have (this also means basically everything japanese) and that their language is shit. That menas you are contradicting yourself, retard. How hard is it to understand this point?
Well, it shouldn't really surprise me considering you can't even capitalize properly.
>>148031947
is that all you can come up with? clearly you're a failure of a troll and purely fucking stupid, just kill yourself
>>148031947
Я пoлoжил этo чepeз интepнeт-пepeвoдчик
>>148031154
I really don't care about VNs and Japanese media in general so why should I?
I just love shitposting.
If F/SN doesn't have sex scenes when it was first released, do you think we'll see less eroge in today's industry?
>>148032298
No? Why would you even reach to that conclusion?
I WILL LEARN JAPANESE TOMORROW.
>>148032068
>You just said their culture is the only good thing they have (this also means basically everything japanese) and that their language is shit. That menas you are contradicting yourself, retard.
holy shit no one can be this retarded. why the fuck can't you understand that the Japanese culture and the language is separate? YES, there maybe some overlap like how weaboos say Kawaii and shit BUT that doesn't mean that they know how to speak japanese. this is a waste of my time and a few braincells died from talking to you, i'm not replying to you anymore, fuck off and good night..
>>148032068
Are you legitimately autistic? This is a serious question
>>148032527
I thought you said you weren't autistic? Why are you sperging out like an asspie?
Go take your meds that your momma paid for little child :)
>>148032487
You either start today, or you won't learn it ever.
>tfw learn japanese for the sake of vns
>tfw leave /djt/ because no longer interesting in japanese learning discussion
>mfw come to vn threads to discuss my main passion in life and everyone always just talks about learning japanese
>>148032298
Nope. Dating sims were the beginning of it all and their sole purpose was wooing the ladies. Now we have glorious visual novels, some are all-ages shit while others are sex trumps. And there's kamige like Grisaia that has sex and good story
>>148031154
Because I already speak three languages. As for japanese, there is a better use for my time than learning a language for porn games. Fapping to porn comes to mind, though that`s just one exampel.
>>148032813
It`s what you get when autists react to autistic shitposting with more autistic shitposting.
>>148032813
>always
At least try to hide your new.
>>148032527
I can't believe you are writing this seriously AND with a cocky attitude. I just can't.

What's the best app for anki?
>>148033335
I pretty much only do them on PC but ankidroid is ok
>>148033335
On android, ankidroid is by far the best and has official support
On ipod, the official app is of course the best.
Why are EOP triggered so easily? The shit posting would stop if you would just stop responding. Then again, if that happened these threads would be dead between releases. It's all good fun and bantz in the end.
>>148031692
>somehow the best visual novel
Who the fuck consider it the best visual novel?
If Fate wasn't translated people would be calling it the kamige of kamiges, you know it's true
>>148034794
I did when I was 15 and it was the first novel I read.
>>148034691
>Blaming the victim
I bet you also think rape is ok.I mean real rape, not Elf-rape
>>148035073
But it`s translated, and it is objectivly shit. Maybe not as shit as some people here say, but it sure as hell isn`t good.
>>148035073
It's a kamige either way.

THIS MEME ENDS NOW!
If Subahibi doesn't come out today I'm ending it

Nobody here actually plays vns, that`s the joke.
But seriously, why would you play Muv-Luv again? Extra is shit, Unlimited is alright but meh after you finished all the routes, and Alternative is such a wild ride that I fear that playing it again would destroy my opinion of it
dead as fuck without the shitposters
>>148040981
I like Alternative but I've never been able to make myself go through it a second time, and not in a good way. I just can't get into it at all.
>>148043952
Just hang in there until SubaHibi is released. Or when Baldr Sky 18+ is released. Whichever comes out first
>>148044645
I guess /vn/ will die then
>>148044645
Or you could just learn Japanese instead of being a cuck who needs other people to """""translate"""""" for him.
>>148044645
>SubaHibi
All-ages trash.
>Or when Baldr Sky 18+ is released
Never going to happen.
>>148040148
ending what?
>>148044832
0/10 try harder.

>the publisher just wants money from the steam all-ages butchered version and don't care about the rest.
>>148044926
Subahibi, obviously.
So what are some good (translated you fucking shitposter) vns we can all agree on being good? Here are a few that seem to fit:
>Coμ
>Muv Luv Alternative
>Ever17
>Majikoi
>G-senjou no Maou
>Kara no Shoujo
>Ayakashibito
>>148047412
>Bad
>Bad
>Ok
>Bad
>Ok
>Ok
>Good
C+C and Fate are the best translated VNs unarguably.
