>>4200275Are you intentionally leaving it out or is this an indirect way to ask me for a thread partnership OP? You could have just asked me directlyAnyway, Signalis thread link>>4180059
Here's to another shit thread, lasses. Are you looking forward to the next bitching contest as much as I do?
>>4200299I see you prefer to be the instigator of the bitching.
>>4200287Sorry, I'm distracted at the moment by life stuff - I'm not sure I even remembered to ask for news updates, I just saw the thread was on page 10 and was like "shit, better post before I end up passing out and it dies" and therefore only pasted what was already in the last OP.
>>4200303I prefer to be drunk these days
This might not be the best place to ask this, but I'm sure at least some people here will have some ideas.I'm looking for simulation or dating sim games where the player character is either able to be female or is exclusively female. I don't even mind if they're total shit narratively, I just want a game where I can get some yuri action, or make some yuri action happen between other girls, or at least ogle some boobs without being taken out of it by having a male MC visible at all times.
>>4200323Too vague. Add some specifications. What kind of simulation?
>>4200327Something along the lines of the Illusion games, I suppose. Those are okay, but feel limited without modding and are way too involved to set up when I just want to open a game and actually play it. The mods also bloat the disk space way too much.
>>4200335So porn? You just want a porn sim? In that case I don't have a lot to work with. When you said dating sim I expected something more normal. Good thing I asked.Most porn dating sim stuff where you can pick a femC is in the CYOA category. Aka text based choice driven games, like Degrees of Lewdity or Unholy Arts. You can customize those to your uh... preferences.Otherwise if you actually care about plot and porn is only a bonus, there are plenty of visual novels. Again, more reading than gameplay, but it's the better version of dating sim by far. You just lose the self-insert aspect, because 99% of yuri VNs actually have a real MC.So if you are fine with eroge VNs there's a loooong list. But then I'd again ask for specifications, because VNs can be in any genre.
So I just received an email from Playasia regarding my pre-order of everlasting flowers for PS4 (but it's the same at least for Steam version too) saying that instead of releasing at the end of June, it has been delayed to the end of August.Sorry if this was mentioned previously. What a bummer.
>>4200345Normal dating sims are fine, porn is just a plus.I'd have read a lot of yuri VNs by now if it weren't for what you mention regarding them mostly having non-self-insert MCs.Either way, thank you for your help!
>>4200350So the self-insert is actually a hard requirement? How unfortunate. You definitely are better off with CYOA games then. Aside from DoL and UA which I already mentioned there is also a ninja game anons here often bring up. I forgot it's name though. Maybe someone else remembers. The rest kinda depends on HOW self-inserty it's gotta be. Blank slate? Or just an MC without a face? Most self-insert dating sim types dont even have CGs with the MC because that would not be self-inserty enough.Surprisingly a game that might sort of fit all three criteria of dating sim + porn + self-insert may be something I never would have expected to recommend... HuniePop 1 & 2. You can pick the gender of the MC and you get to see tits. The gameplay is very CandyCrush though.Here are some yuri VNs that have a self-insert protag, multiple love interests and where you are almost always in POV:-Find Love or Die Trying (has some darker plot elements)-Wolf Tails (it has sex)-Yuri Dating Agency (this one is weird and meta tho)
>>4200355I've already done all I want of both HuniePops unfortunately. I might just have to lighten up my requirements in the end here.Regarding the self-inserty-ness, it's hard to quantify but I've been fine with even just a simple name-input, but it can vary.Yuri Dating Agency seems odd, but the other two look good. I'll probably give all three a chance however. Thanks for the suggestions, and I'll see if I can catch the name of that ninja game too.
>>4200360Sorry that I can't be more helpful, but I rather dislike self-insert games and the yuri genre on average has higher standards in regards to story-telling, so self-inserts often simply don't cut it. Combine that with a dating sim aspect and it's too niche for my catalogue of knowledge.If nothing else I might check out the new Degrees of Lewdity updates myself. Haven't touched that in a long while. As far as sandbox stuff goes that one's actually fine.>Yuri Dating Agency seems oddIt's definitely going for a meta Doki Doki Literature Club thing more than a straightforward dating sim experience.
>>4200348They announced the change in release date yesterday: https://twitter.com/sprite_fairys/status/1785610119319069101
Volcano Princess is in a bundle with another game for the first time and... it's Potion Craft. A game with no romance, just potions. Disappointing.At least we got this new cute art for Rose out of it. Could you imagine if just for this bundle they added a Potion Master job ending and let you get a romance ending with the potion shop girl though?
>>4200429I like the way you think, anon.
>>4200440This is basically the Stellar Blade thread since it's not really big enough to warrant its own. There was some discussion last thread.
>>4200440>extremely heavy on the subtextNo it wasn't.
>>4200429>>4200431Potion shop girl is pretty cute. She even has a flower name, Daisy. I don't know the first thing about modding, but with the new pic it might actually be possible to insert a new career ending. Random villagers romance endings already exist, so you basically only need to change a few lines for the generic romance ending to say it's with Daisy too.
>>4200365The reason they gave for the delay is that due to the cinematic nature of the work (no generic sprites, every scene is unique), the amount of CGs they had to make was much higher than anticipated. They posted one such scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4up7QRv-h8
>>4200454>use no sprites and generic background images>be surprised by the amount of CGs a full game like that takesActually it is worrying that this short before the release they haven't even finished the art stage yet...
>>4200459I'm sure they have, it just ran them a little long. But we're talking about sprite, they died for almost a decade after Aokana so I wouldn't be surprised if this game killed them again.
>>4200464So the type who doesn't know how to budget properly and goes overboard, eh?
>>4200468Worth it if the game ends up as good as it looks.
>>4200469Dying for one's art may sound noble, but I'd rather have several well budgeted works. That is, if the writing is even that good. The worst outcome would be to die for a mid game.
>>4200470Sorry, the artist was just too passionate about yuri and will probably commit lovers' suicide once the game is released: https://sprite.net/everlastingflowers/staffcomment/suzumori>“Once this work is completed, I don’t mind dying.”>While creating "everlasting flowers", I suddenly thought about this.>One day, I read a yuri manga. A jolt of electricity ran down my spine, and from there I started reading books by other authors like crazy, and was captivated by the directing power of yuri manga artists and the expressiveness of their delicate line drawings.>A delicate and fragile world that can only be told by female protagonist x female protagonist. A sense of atmosphere can be felt through delicate compositions that capture the subtleties of emotion. An expression of light created by the broken lines of a single hair.>At the time, I felt that there might be new buds for novel games, and I felt like it was a ray of hope for me at the time, when I felt somewhat stuck and at the limits of expression.
>>4200440>>4200441Until that one anon starts screeching again
>>4200474>one anonSo delusional.
>>4200473>solo lover's suicideThat's next level.
>>4200483Same how it's only ever 'one anon' who argues back. That thing goes both ways.
>>4200487No no, you don't understand. It's all one anon. The anon posts about Stellar Blade, the anon screeches about Stellar Blade and the anon reprimands their own posts screeching about Stellar Blade. It's all one big act. The entire thread is just one anon actually. You don't even exist.
>>4200490The entirety of /u/ is just one person arguing with herself!
>>4200473That's dedication.
>>4200323Okay, well, I would normally never bring these up in this thread, but your tastes are rather specific, so have you ever dipped your toe into the western mobile app VN space? There are several apps, mostly aimed at straight women but often featuring at least a little GL, that offer a variety of smutty and/or trashy short romance VNs. Most don’t even have CGs or basic QOL shit like fast forward, they’re nearly all ad-supported F2P, and you won’t see any nipples or vaginas, but some can be tolerable if you’re looking for trashy, smutty GL.Of the ones I’ve interacted with, I’d probably say the ones most worth looking into are>Scripts (fuckton of theoretically dedicated GL stories (though several are reskins of straight ones), very smutty; wildly varied writing quality, rarely more than one LI)>Romance Club (higher production values, better average writing, CGs, more LIs, near-weekly free premium choice events; less smutty/trashy stories, no dedicated GL stories (though at least one female LI in all but one story), older stories tend to force attraction to males)>Too Hot To Handle (free w/Netflix sub, no ads, higher production values, better writing, multiple female LIs; forced attraction to males, everyone’s bi, S2 has an MTF trans LI (Elodie))
Any good yuri H games on dlsite?
I want to get BG3, but my poor old PC ain't up to the task. Sure, it could run it, but it'll look like a late PS2/early PS3 game. So, until I can afford a newer PC, are there any less spec-intensive alternatives? I know there are plenty of older/lower spec RPGs on Steam and GoG, but i'm not certain which ones have /u/.
>>4200626Divinity OS 2?
>>4200632Anon asked for games with /u/.
>>4200640And your point is?
>>4200640I mean they're just text based but DOS 2 has lesbian sex scenes that kinda made me embarrassed by how intimate they are.
>>4200626Well, going by what you've said your PC's specs are, I think out of the titles that are relevant there is: Wildermyth, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (should run on your PC decently,) Sakura Dungeon, the two Pathfinder games (Kingmaker, Wrath of the Righteous,) aren't nearly as graphics intensive as BG3, the Expeditions: Viking game has one /u/ romance path, and I think that's it for RPGs. I think the biggest roadblocks to having BG3 look halfway decent is to have it installed on an SSD hard drive rather than a mechanical hard drive, plus the GPU of course. It's out on PS5 too, so that may be an option if you have access to a console.
>>4200632Already got it.Funnily, enough I got it twice. First on PS4 a few years ago and then I eventually got it on the PC, which i've got a major gripe with.The console port has a pretty significant advantage over it's PC counterpart: you can run, which makes positioning and avoiding enemies easier.On the PC version you can only walk, unless you click halfway across the screen and only then will the character run.The PC version should be called "Strolling Edition".
>>4200641It's pretty misleading to a suggest a game where romance in general is an exceedingly minor footnote you could blink and miss.
>>4200647If you didn't blink-and-missed romance in BG3, you're not going to miss an extended text description of going for 5 rounds of sex with Sebille in DOS2.
>>4200649The presence and depth involved in the two aren't remotely comparable and you know that they aren't. Don't be deliberately obtuse.
>>4200651They are very much comparable. Both games have the same tried and true "do personal quests until approval hits a certain threshold, then have sex" romance system. BG3 just allows you to start having sex much earlier.
>>4200643>PathfinderAren't the devs Russian? >PS5For various reasons, I think I'm going to be moving off from consoles.
>>4200655>Aren't the devs Russian?Yes. It has no relevance to whether the games have /u/ content or not. Pirate them if it's a problem for you.
>>4200654BG3 also has romance throughout instead of in ~2-3 scenes. DSO2's romance options are like if every character was Minthara. They are just not remotely the same thing. The fact that you've had to really transparently reduce BG3's to "you just do some personal quests and then have sex!!" should be a red flag for you.
>>4200657The fact that you've had to really transparently reduce DOS2's romance to a "minor footnote you could blink and miss" should be a red flag for you.
>>4200655Owlcat is headquartered in Cyprus, with satellite offices in Moscow and Armenia, but its a Russian owned company with much of its startup funds coming from GEM Capital who also bankrolled Atomic Heart's studio, Mundfish. This was years ago, so it's up to you to decide if that's a deal breaker.
>>4200656Nah, i'll give it a pass.>>4200661I'm going to play it safe and spend my money elsewhere. I don't want to give a penny to the Muscovite Khanate.
>>4200665I was getting deja vu from this conversation, and sure enough, it's happened at least twice (>>3923502 >>4053053) in the past year. Do you people just not know how to pirate games or something?
>>4200673I know how to please your mother.
Whats with these homies dissing my lass>>4200446it's actually a crime a cute girl like this wasn't even an option to build a relationship with. how are you gonna draw a character this darling but do us like this. Also what is that she has on her hand?
>>4200656>>4200661>>4200665This shit again?Owlcat themselves already cleared this up years ago, no they don't fund Russia. They moved their HQ to Cyprus partly to avoid issues with that country but mostly to become self-published. The only issue it caused is that they lost the rights for Kingmaker (which was published by a third-party) but they fully own the publishing rights for Wrath of the Righteous and Rogue Trader, including the income.
>>4200623>yuri hentai gamesUnicorns.
>>4200681>Also what is that she has on her hand?Some kind of wrist brace I'm guessing. carpal tunnel be hitting hard.
>>4200681>it's actually a crime a cute girl like this wasn't even an optionThere are several incredible female NPCs that seem like no-brainer love interests for Rose, but I assume the devs didn't have infinite ressources and while VP gives us a lot of female LIs for her, it is still clear that male LIs took priority overall.For women with great designs that should have been love interests or at the very least generic romance ending options I would count-Daisy, the alchemist-Natalie, the sword trainer-Rachel, the music teacher-The concubine at the banquet-Some of the girls at the sword, debate and dance tournaments/horse racing competitions-Fuck it... the Owl Princess. Let Rose cuck her dad. She can already fuck her sister-The theater owner, she is a cougar and she has a thing for Rose already
>>4200754>it is still clear that male LIs took priority overallDespite that, they still did a pretty good job with the female ones, no? That said, I would love if they give the female LIs more love in their next game or even a dlc for VP, given how popular the yuri paths are, especially the Gwyneth path.Side note, no girls is straight with Rose around.
>>4200756>DLCI've said it before, the game definitely has potential for some extra content, especially on the mechanics that were cut out of the final release, like in-depth alchemy and a magic system. There are also gaps in the profession ending gallery that make me think there could have been 2-4 more endings. For love interests I don't think it would be too much to ask for a couple of isolated extra NPCs. Even if you can't integrate them in a way that they are story relevant or interact with other characters much.>no girl is straight with Rose aroundI dont think anyone in that kingdom is straight. Though there is actually no evidence of any m/m pairings, while there are many obvious bi/lesbian girls. The difference between the poly het endings and the poly yuri endings really stands out to me too. Like you can tell the love goes all ways in the yuri endings, but in the het ones it's just a reverse harem where all dudes only care about Rose.It's just funny to me, because there is so much fujo bait in this game, but only yurifags win.
>>4200525Scripts is fucking godawful. The app is nothing but a series of premium choices leading to smut of extremely questionable levels. Even Choices in their low-effort erotica with single LI era is a better option. The other two apps are way better, especially since newer RC stories (like Soulless and 7 Brothers) let you declare MC as a lesbian from the start.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2402280/Werewolf_The_Apocalypse__The_Book_of_Hungry_Names/Someone mentioned CYOA stuff, so this might be of interest. Most people only know of Vampire the Masquerade when it comes to this World of Darkness TTRPG universe, it's the big franchise, but Werewolf the Apocalypse is their second most popular IP.Basically this is a really solid story in the Werewolf part of the universe and it lets you play a female leader and romance women. The romance isn't crazy in-depth, but this is a quality release.But if this pure text approach is too stale for you...https://store.steampowered.com/app/1342620/Werewolf_The_Apocalypse__Heart_of_the_Forest/Now hear me out... this one doesn't have direct romance for the female protag, so it's not yuri per se, but this is an amazingly poignant introduction into WTA and as the Hella Yuri rec says, there are lesbians in it. This one has visuals and production value and a great story, so I'd still recommend playing it. Maybe it will even improve your experience of The Book Of Hungry Names.
>>4200647May I suggest playing as Lohse? She's the unofficial main character. She's also written as a lesbian and is set up with Sebille from their first interaction. Add on to how Malady will only flirt with Lohse, there are multiple lesbian NPCs and couples scattered throughout the game, it is quite /u/ friendly on top of being a fun crpg.
>>4200771I didn’t claim Scripts wasn’t terrible, it’s just that if you want lots of super trashy lesbian romance stories, I can’t think of a single app that offers anything approaching the same quantity. Even if a lot of them are horribly written.I will say I had fun with the one where you randomly get together with lesbian Satan, the one where a mafia heiress hires you to seduce her sister then falls in love with you herself, and the one where you’re some kind of bumbling secret agent out to stop a phantom thief type but can’t keep your mind out of the gutter long enough to do your job.
>>4200773>Furry: the EcoterroristsI'll wait for Mage. Get me some Technocracy scissoring
>>4200852They don't transform outside of combat usually, so there ain't any furryshit in this.Ecoterrorism is also pretty justified these days in the real world. Even moreso in this fantasy setting where there is the Wyrm trying to destroy all nature and uses human pollution to speed things up.>MageThe most misleading setting name of all.
>>4200852They made a freakin' horror game for Wraith The Oblivion recently. Literally anything to avoid Mage.
>>4200626Buy a Ryzen 4600 CPU, it's cheap and the IGPU is strong enough to run baldur's gate in a playable state ( as long as you have a SSD)
>>4200730>carpal tunnel from all the potion making but not carpal tunnel from fingering rose tfw >>4200754Yeah Amanda, Agatha and the concubine especially looks too good to not even qualify as fleshed out side characters, the devs are insane for this. A riot is in order>Fuck it... the Owl PrincesskekAlso I wasn't here a lot when this game first dropped, which girl was /u/'s favourite ending?
>>4200885>image says Mona>Nina's wedding CGWhat did anon mean by this?>who was /u/s favoriteWe didn't do a survey. In the end most players will get all yuri endings anyway.
>>4200854Chill, I'm just having a little fun. I'm just prefer the whole spirit police thing from Werewolf: the Forsaken a bit more as a setting backdrop.>>4200858To be fair, Ascension is kinda meh. Another thing that was improved with Chronicles of Darkness over it's WoD contemporary (though the main winner was definitely Changeling there)
>>4200891Are you telling me someone managed to salvage Changeling? I was literally gonna make a joke about how they will do Changeling before Mage. Because that is the worst one that nobody played.
>>4200885>which girl was /u/'s favourite ending?Probably Gwyneth, but /u/ was mostly focused on making fun of Mona and being dissapointed by Lebsa being done dirty in True ending before its was reworked.
>>4200623Just give up on the H section there. It's not even possible to find anything yuri-related without excluding a dozen of tags and checking the results one by one, since everyone there adds yuri tags even if there's just one lesbian scene in an otherwise het or monster game.Technically there are many commercial yuri games on there (from sonohana to liar-soft games), most of which have sex, but they're usually available elsewhere and translated.Out of recently released indie stuff 百合里ぐらし looks curious. 夏空あすてりずむ finally released last year. There's the 「先輩と百合」シリーズ but I haven't played it, no idea how yuri-focused it actually is. Personally I'm trying to find the time to play "ドラマチックSF百合活劇 Put on!" and ストプリ from the same creator, but I like giant robots and SRW-like games about as much as I like yuri, which is not a common combination of tastes to have.
>>4200888Nta but maybe anon meant that's Mona's pov kek.
>>4200961>ntaOh no, I don't want to believe there are two autists who still use kek. It's not even a /u/ thing.
>>4200896Changeling: the Lost is definitely unfucked compared to Changeling: the Dreaming.
>>4200773I've been playing the Book of Hungry Names, and as someone whose only previous experience with WoD has been the Vampire games this one feels a bit more... spiritual. Not usually my cup of tea, but it's been fine so far (although some of the lore kinda just goes over my head) and it's fun playing a dumb angry berserk lesbian wolf.
>>4201002Yes, Werewolf is a much more nature and spiritualism focused part of WoD. Werewolves generally stay away from civilisation. There is actually some lore about vampires basically hiding in cities so the werewolves won't fuck them up. A single werewolf is like 10 times more powerful than even a strong vampire and they can't stand them, because vampires are servants of the Wyrm in their eyes.Obviously the lore is quite loose and some Werewolf stories take them into cities, but generally Werewolf focuses on fighting evil entities and trying to save the world while also fighting other werewolf clans, because they are divided as fuck and very bad at diplomacy.Book of Hungry Names is interesting because it focuses on gathering allies and working together, which is almost a novel concept for these country bumpkin mutts. Also being able to pick a clan to follow is a pretty unique situation for this setting.Anyway, I like that femC can romance both normal human women and werewolf women in this too.
>>4201036Why are you talking about random non-yuri shit?
>>4201036If you had it in you to read more than one sentence you'd know that people are in fact talking about a game with yuri in it.
>>4201036Because /v/ is just /b/ with less porn, and /vg/ is just discord minus discord, so a slower board is perceived as more usable and easier to get eyes on whatever you post.
>>4201005And then you have tech wolves who extend that spiritualism to anything humans build and use tech magic to talk to literal computer spirits. I'm glad they're still around even with how hard they neutered the setting.Also, yet another yuri game where one of the love interests is a literal dog. She's disgustingly cute.
>>4201042>spoilerI guess I wasn't degenerate enough to find THAT path in my first playthrough...
>>4201043You probably found Nin but might've missed that she's basically a reverse werewolf who was born a wolf and turned into a human.
>>4201047I actually did miss that. But that's kind of a different can of worms from what you said first. Shit gets weird in werewolf county.
>>4201005>There is actually some lore about vampires basically hiding in cities so the werewolves won't fuck them up.It's why cities in the WoD look different from their real world version. New York in WoD is a New York that was influenced by Vampires to accommodate them better (far more and narrower alleys and the like) since the wilderness isn't hospitable due to aforementioned werewolves
Cute subtext in Stellar Bladehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZ8cbeDw-Qo
looking forward to hades 2 having a female protag. willing to bet nemesis is set up as one of the love interests.
>>4201002This may sound patronizing, but I don't mean anything bad by it. The game has a journal that explains a lot of terms in case you missed it. There's also the external wiki of course. Book of Hungry Names generally does its best to explain things over time at least.
How yuri is 'Trash in the Flower Garden' on Steam? I don't really trust Korean yuri stuff like I do with Chinese and Japanese ones.
>>4201499It's not done yet.
>>4201348I'm still surprised that /u/ isn't all over Stellar Blade; it's vastly more explicit than most of the board's favorites.Anti-Korean bias?
>>4201535Me no have ps5.Me no can play.
>>4201499It's very gay, and the developer is passionate about it, and unlike some other titles being discussed here, it's 100% yuri
>>4201535Wake me up when we will get PC Steam complete edition some years in future with DLC add-on where the MC kisses the girl.
>>4201559You wish; that game is literally designed for the audiences on the right side of the political spectrum. Those scenes neesan gets excited over are just the equivalent of business yuri: some teasing to get some marks to bite.
>>4201535>it's vastly more explicit than most of the board's favoritesHow can anyone read this and not see that it's a troll?
Crymachina is $47.99 on humble.
>>4201606It costs the same on Steam.
>>4201611Better buy it soon if you want it direct from steam, humble will be available for a couple weeks while only a day for steam.
>>4201669Not trying to pick any fights here but it's already better than Bayonetta (this means absolutely nothing)Bayonetta had a male love interest since the first game, imagine my surprise when I "learned" the games that had that scene with bayonetta doing sexy poses on top of a dude was famous for its "yuri"
I have have discovered a few new yuri games recently. There is only one out of them in which I have any real interest however.
>>4201688Bayonetta was never known for its yuri, because it never had any. At most it was vague enough to allow people to ship whatever they wanted until Bayo 3. /u/ always jumps on any opening devs give.>>4201693Nobody cares. Talk about them or shut up.
>>4201693So, what are they....?
>>4201695Samefag
>>4201694I talked about them, stupid. That's all I had to say, but it was enough. You shut up, you added nothing important.

>>4201701>How the hell did Disaster Report of all things get a yuri tag?Honestly I think it was brought up on one of these gaming threads first and added to HY later.>>4201718I believe they mean it has a hella yuri listing.
>>4201735There is nothing to ruin in the first place. It has no yuri.
>>4201742Feel free to be wrong
>>4201701You can play a girl and make decisions that make you explicitly attracted to girls. I haven’t gotten very far, but I think I remember hearing there’s no real romance. Not worth it for yuri, kinda worth it if the gameplay concept appeals to you as there’s really nothing else quite like it. Terribly optimized, though, PC’s gonna be the best place to play it if you have a decent one.>>4201705I haven’t seen any of this yet in my run, though like I said, haven’t gotten super far.
>>4201744DaUnless you can provide evidence that proves otherwise, it's fair to say SB has no yuri.
>>4201770>evidenceHas already been posted in previous threads.Whether it fits your standards of yuri or not is another matter.
>>4201770I mean the emotional climax of the game is Eve rescuing another girl
>>4201776There was no evidence. Literally all that was posted was "proof" that there is no het romance or subtext (the latter isn't even true).The absence of het is not the existence of yuri.This is all bullshit, you are very obviously contrarians pretending to be retarded on purpose. There is no standard that makes the non-existent romance of SB yuri. No romance or sex = no yuri. Repeat the definition kids!"Yuri is a romantic relationship or sex between two girls"Being close friends or saving your friend is not yuri. >>4201780
>>4201951Oh please, if the ending had her saving and hugging a guy EVERYONE would call it het. Stop the double standards already.
>>4201958Stop using these whataboutisms. I don't give a shit. Yes, I have double standards. In favor of yuri that is. I will forgive a million things for yuri works I would despise in het or BL. But the prerequisite is being actual yuri.Now stop projecting your retardation on me you halfwit. I don't call shit het romance for saving or hugging either, unless express romantic intent is already established. Try a new tactic you intellectual void.
>>4201962You can dress it up in whatever excuses you like, but a you think a scene between a boy and a girl would be het but that SAME scene but between two girls wouldn't be yuri that's just an insane double standard that actively denies yuri.
>>4201966You can keep throwing impotent punches at your strawman all you want, but the reality is that SB has no yuri and that you didn't bother to read my post, very clearly. Intellectual void? More like intellectual abyss.
>>4201969>Intellectual void? More like intellectual abyss.Why do you project so hard?
>>4201951I think the yuri undertones of Stellar Blade is weak but if you think there is het subtext in the game but not yuri subtext, I think you might be biased against yuri.
>>4201972It has neither. But quite the opposite, I'm saying if you consider this absolute nothing yuri subtext, then it might as well have het subtext. If you agree SB has no yuri then I have no reason to waste my time on discussing imaginary minor points with you. We already agree on the only point that matters.
is Skyrim the only roleplaying game where you can play a female character and marry another woman?
>>4201975Look, I wouldn't recommend Stellar Blade for the yuri but you're sounding like those anons from /v/ who deny any sort of yuri at all.Just say that the subtext that exists is cute but you're not interested in the game and move on.
>>4201986>Married a lady in Skyrim>Adopted a couple daughters>Her deadbeat brother moves in with me without my permission>She randomly disappears and I never found out whyReally made my enjoyment of the game slam into the wall. Haven't been back to try it in years.
>>4201986How wide is your definition of a roleplaying game?
>>4201987No. Anons here are trying to pretend the game is /u/ relevant or on-topic for this thread. It's not. The issue is entirely on their side.
>>4201986There's a pretty large number of RPGs that let you marry a woman but I guess it depends on what exactly you mean by roleplaying game.
>>4201987wouldn't be such a big deal if there wasn't some post like "omg sisters I can't believe /u/ isn't talking about Stellar Blade" every single day. it's so forced.
>>4201986No.>>4201989Skyrim's just a shitty sandbox, with a bunch of half-assed mechanics thrown on it and a blank slate MC with less personality than a garden rake, so of course marriage was not gonna be worthwhile. If you don't care about the mindless combat the game's not for you.
>>4201994I mean it's a roleplaying game, there was enough for me to work with in terms of just imagining a life for my character. But when my character's wife just gets fucking deleted from the game at random it sucks out what life it had. Maybe people dying a random senseless death is realistic but it's pretty shitty for a game like that.
>>4201997It's just a buggy mess without substance.
>>4201997I bet you did the gamey thing and reloaded an earlier save? And because it's Todd's game, did you also try to cheat your waifu back to laifu?
>>4202005Anon, putting a pic into spoilers doesn't change anything.
>>4201740I must be blind as hell cause I don't see it on the store page
>>4201740>>4202036There's a gameplay passage where the player and another woman need to sneak through and area and if they get caught, said molestation happens.
>>4201986Didn't Fable 3 let you marry a woman? I can''t remember and can't be arsed to google it.
>>4202052Maybe? But Fable 3 also forces the character into a hetero childhood friends romance (which gets cut short relatively quickly, but the point still stands)
>>4202036The curation listing? Steam's gotten weird about it and doesn't always show your curators on the page, which is very frustrating. The only way to check for sure is to put the curator id in and that's too much work.
not gonna lie sisters, i'll play stellar blade once it comes to pccute dressup game, a canon lesbian side character, some yuri subtext with zero het, and actual good gameplay?that's >>>/u/ enough for me
>>4202139I will only buy it if they gonna add kiss ending DLC like they did with Horizon FW and TLOU.
Could you all go back to >>>/v/ please?
>>4202139Nobody cares. You can play whatever you want in your own niche. Just don't bring it here. Shoo.
>>4202052Fable 2 and 3 both let you marry whoever liked you enough. I think three had the more victorian nobles that got up to Eyes Wide Shut parties. Loved seducing one of those ladies.Never forget the champion romance that is Lady Grey in the later games. Who wouldn't want to romance their great-great-great grandmother turned Bride of Frankenstein? Cowards that's who
>>4202139>with zero hetThe good ending requires accepting to be impregnated by Adam, who has been grooming Eve for the entire game.If you refuse you get he bad ending where you end killing Lily.I'm convinced that the only ones shilling SB are trolls.
>>4202005Neither were possible because I didn't realize she was gone until I just came back home one day and she wasn't there anymore, so I have no idea when she poofed, and I never found the body so I couldn't revive her.
>>4202200Impregnated? I remember reading something about absorbing the guy but that’s about it
>>4202214>Replying to a troll
>>4202139Is the canon lesbian you are talking about Roxanne? Eve seems kind of annoyed by her flirting lolhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRKoQ6rpz3Q
>>4201989This reads like a premise to an edgy late 90s to early 00s sitcom. Maybe starring David Spade as the deadbeat brother.
>>4202214It is absorbing him.
>>4202139Sounds good actuallyBut I have so much backlog, I think I have to wait for a discount or as yous aid PC release
>>4202270>another post with no punctuation affirming some off-topic troll who doesnt use punctuationYup samefag again. What's the damn point?
>>4202275I’m about 73% sure the main point is pissing you off. You specifically.
yuri ntr!https://ci-en.dlsite.com/creator/3677/article/1134526
I think stellar blade is like, the best yuri game ever made.
>>4202282Nice. Texting play is super underrated...
Eonnis, I think Jiggle Physics Tech Demo might be the Kindred Spirits of our generation...
>>4201986It's the only roleplaying game that lets you play as a lizardwoman and marry another lizardwoman...
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/studiodaimon/food-devils-a-strategy-rpg-x-roguelite-x-base-builderPath of the Midnight Sun was mentioned here a couple of times and its devs started another Kickstarter. 3 out of 5 main companions are girls and the campaign promises that you can pair them up in addition to the romance with MC.
>>4202290(You)s mean nothing yadda yadda, we had this convo a million times. You are still an idiot. A boring one at that.
>>4202341Yes but are there any milves?
>>4202343Different anon, but do you really think anyone on /u/ has the patience and time to shop that stuff just for some gotcha?
>>4202347There certainly are some schizos, yesThe bigger issue here is the retard calling everyone a “samefag” when it’s nothing more than a buzzword that can’t be proven
>>4202347Any anon? No. This autist? Yes. The time it took to make that second-rate collage image was longer than it takes to erase an (You).
>>4202348Call me a retard all you want. I know which anons are samefagging and I call them out. It's common courtesy to expose sweat this weak. The only thing these shitposters have is anonymity giving them the appearance of power in numbers. When you show how few they really are it shows what a joke they are.
>>4202346the poison devil has kind of a dommy mommy thing going on, I guess.
>>4202353Unless their goal is to rile you up, in which case you’re just giving them what they want.
>>4200323Kindred Spirits on the Roof.It's a VN on steam where you play cupid for other yuri couples. And there's spicy CGs as well. It's pretty good
>>4202662That has nothing to do with what anon asked for. They already said they want a self-insert.
>>4202282that a rare niche, going to follow this closely.
>>4200773Romancing Nin right now. This sure was some weird placement for a sex scene. Right during a major investigation of an extra-dimensional alien wasp infecting the populace to steal their faces and organs. But when cute wolf gf wants to do it in the middle of an appartment full of your friends, any femC with common sense will acquiesce.
>>4200773Interesting I really like WOD stuff but I like vampires more than wolves
>>4202705I'm usually more of a vampire person but I like Book of Hungry Names much more than Night Road so far. Same with the other one anon mentioned. WTA is kind of a mess right now but both of them do a good job at making the best parts shine.
>>4202705Everyone likes vampires more, but Werewolf has actually more potential lorewise imo. The vampire clans are very limited, especially in scope. Werewolves are intimately connected to every aspect of the universe.If you are already familiar with WTA I think Book of Hungry Names is a must play/read. Maquis is a phenomenal writer and really understands what makes CYOA engaging. The amount of intricate callbacks to all your choices is amazing and every Gift and ability you obtain feels like it has a useful application and isn't just flavor text. The only bad thing I can say about BoHN is that I don't like the few artworks of the human forms of most characters in the profiles, because a lot of them don't even match up to the descriptions. I may even recommend turning the art off in the options.For people who know nothing/little about WTA... maybe Heart of the Forest is a good tutorial that makes clear how things work. It is pretty short and has production value. Again, no yuri for Maia (protag) though. It really does play like a short story, where BoHN is a full on novel.... or several novels, considering the vast possibility for alternate routes.
>>4202716>Everyone likes vampires more,Because it deals explicity more with personal horror. It also helps that Vampire's lore was left slightly more untouched compared to Werewolf one. Vampires at least still know how a vampire is created, Werewolves all of a sudden don't know what makes a werewolf.
>>4202282Nice, hope it's release soon.
>>4202877It doesn't really matter that much. They have their first Change and then they are werewolves. At least the new lore got rid of that weird rule about Garou not being allowed to mate with each other. And before you say it, yes, this rule also applied to lesbian partners. Fucking weird and unnecessarily inihibiting for roleplay.
I wonder if I'll have to learn Chinese and Korean with all of this untranslated and poorly translated stuff popping up nearly every day now on Steam and wherever. I'm afraid to even imagine how many hidden gems there are on places like 66RPG.Not that I'm even remotely close to clearing my Japanese yuri game backlog, mind you...
>>4202882Is that canned octopus wieners?
>>4202882To be fair the Chinese and Korean yuri communities probably feel the same about English games. If only there was some way to unify everyone.
>>4202887If only Esp- er, Juliamo took off.
>>4202881>At least the new lore got rid of that weird rule about Garou not being allowed to mate with each otherWerewolf the Forsaken 2nd Edition already got rid of all the penalties that came with it. Yet the lore basically got rid of werewolf descend being THE reason for becoming a werewolf in the first place.Well, and they fucked over the all female tribe by now letting guys into it, too, because inclusivity.
>>4202882>66RPGI won't say much about it because I can't bother to create an account but yuri works seem decently popular there. Below are a few links to more notable ones:https://www.66rpg.com/game/1604593https://www.66rpg.com/game/1547301https://www.66rpg.com/game/1558865When it comes to translation, an app called Lumitale appeared recently to offer rather poorly translated stories from that site. Nothing but het and BL at the moment, but there's slight hope they will add something yuri one day.
>>4202896May as well wish for Klingon or Sindarin as an international language.
Just finished Fragile Feelings and it was pretty dang goodI really enjoy Ebi-hime's writing style (I'm in the middle of dreamy planet, blackberry honey, and the language of love so I'll probably sing more praises about her writings when I finish them)
>EAYes yes but having Nemesis like this is very nice.
>>4202998What's the context to this? Romance scene?
>>4203000Yeah Mel and Nemesis in a spring for a scene
>>4203014Awesome. I wonder if they'll slot in actual factual romance in this one.
How is Sisterly Bliss?
>>4202998when is this coming again
>>42031252025
>>4202998apparently it gets even crazier
>>4203130>>4202998is there full body art of these characters
>>4200275Itch.io has so many underground Yuri games in it that maybe we consider adding a direct link next to the Steam one in the OP
>>4203125It's out in early access, full release ETA unknown.
>>4202975Maybe if you didnt play them all at once you could finish each one faster.
>>4203141Salty because you don't have 5 dedicated yuri monitors, nee-san?
>>4203144No, just sane and valuing the writing, unlike you ADHD spaz.
>>4202883Would it really be that weird if cocktail or vienna sausages came pre-tako'd? I dunno maybe piercing the casing makes it less preservable?
>>4203131Dressed stills afaik. Those of us with an ear to the ground will just have to keep an eye out.
>>4203141Actually, I have them on separate systemsFor example blackberry honey on my ps5, language of love on my laptop, and dreamy planet on my desktopAnd the only reason there are 2 pc versions is because my retarded ass didn't notice that her games don't have cloud backups
>>4203101Cute. If you pick the right choices.
>>4203101>>4203180There is no way two people picked screenshots of the Japanese version instead of the English translation. What's with the theatrics?
>>4203181I only played the JP version though. Long before it was translated. That screen is from 2016.. feels old.
>>4202998I am hoping the spring has a benefit to doing it. Good on Mel though for getting underneath this killstealer's skin
>>4203187If it's anything like the first one you can romance people so I don't get why it wouldn't be yuri. You play as a girl and should be able to romance girls?
Are there any 3d farming games that are as good as Stardew and yuri? Outside of rune factory?
>>4203219Anon bitches about something she doesn't have any idea of. More news at 11.
>>4203136most of them are very short though (understandably, for hobby projects made for fun)
>>4203136Many of them can be found via the VNDB link and there's not really an itch "curator" system that I know of for anyone to correctly list and identify what's actually yuri. The Steam link doesn't just go to the LGBT tag (much of which is not yuri) but to a custom list.If someone is doing an itch curation thing please let me know.
>>4203187Shut the fuck up. Nobody cares about your opinion. It's Yuri
>>4203220Coral Island is psuedo-3D and supposed to be good, but I'm holding off until it's complete. Check out the modern Story of Seasons games, previous threads have had more extensive recommendations from them. uhh I think some people like the My Time at Portia/Sandrock games, as long as you're a PC player.
>>4203305Blindly saying things are yuri when they are not is your only talent, huh? You could put a het porn video in front of this retard and he'd still say it's yuri.
>>4203419Anon isn't blindly saying it though, because the previous game also allowed for a same sex romance, so there's precedence. It's just that the protag of Hades 2 is female, whereas her older brother was the protag of the first. The point still stands though that devs aren't strangers to same sex romance.
>>4203457>Anon isn't blindly saying it thoughNo, anon is definitely saying it blindly, because he has been making the exact same comments (down to the words) for the last few threads every time it was pointed out how obviously not yuri something is, like Stellar Blade and even worse examples.Hades 2 might have some irrelevant minor yuri scenes for all I know, but that isn't confirmed yet and the images posted 100% were not yuri. There isn't really anything else to say, it's just a fact. And the anons who posted those pics know that, hence the spoilers.
>>4203519Just say you don't like Hades and that's why you don't want it here. That's more honest than the you're spouting here.
>>4203525You really shouldn't even reply, it's just the guy who goes nuclear about every little thing. The best response is just silence.
>>4203220I've been eyeing the new echos of the plum grove. I don't think there's much to the characters but the point is to create a lasting legacy where your children take your place after you die. You being a girl and romancing girls is simple. You can decide to adopt or have a Yuri pregnancy.
>>4203186are these voiced
>>4203519I am not any of the people who have brought up Stellar Blade. I am not any of the people who have brought up Hades. I don’t particularly care about either of those games. I barely post at all in this general, especially lately. I’m prefacing with this so that you know I have no stakes in this conversation.Shut the fuck up you abrasive little pedant. Everything you post actively makes this thread a worse place to be.
>>4203531idk if they are now since its early access, but the game is gonna have full voice acting.
>>4203526I've just had it with that little shit calling every game he clearly dislikes as irrelevant. Dragon's Dogma has yuri? Irrelevant because miniscule. Elden Ring? Same. Rise of the Ronin? Doubly so. At this point only VNs probably satisfy him and then we might as well just rename the general into 'Anon's little book club'.
>>4203525Hades 1? The game with a male protagonist and no yuri? I think it would be more problematic if I did like it. Don't forget what board you are on /v/tard.>>4203532I don't care about your opinion. I care about people not talking about non-yuri games. Though in this case I pretty much just pointed out that obviously using spoilers for images that aren't yuri is a pretty old and rusty tactic. The game itself could be relevant at full release. We will see.>>4203543Projection, projection, projection. I never called Dragon's Dogma irrelevant. Elden Ring is a farce, but everyone knows that. Nobody has ever said anything about RoR being off-topic, though I have seen someone repeatedly claim that we did for some retarded reasons.Methinks you are fighting the voices in your head more than anything.
>>4203549Bitch, that last one is clearly the new MC taking a bath with another woman. Have you ever considered the possibility that someone spoiler tags the images because...the scene might be perceived as a spoiler? Yeah, I know! What a shock!Go choke on your prick
>>4203549It’s pretty clear you don’t care about my opinion, anon. You don’t care about anything or anyone but yourself. You pretend to care about the board, but your pedantic, repetitive, self-serving rants are the main reason this general has gone (even further) down the toilet in recent months. All you do here is instigate and maintain an atmosphere of constant shit-flinging. Improve the world and kill yourself.
>>4203553Sorry anon, the game isn't yuri until it comes out, has full tribbing, and you've pinned down the developer and made him swear that no one is a secret tranny. now sit down, we're gonna have a long discussion about rogues in Dragon Age.
>>4203543Me too, but replying is just what they want. They're never gonna change their mind or go oh good point because they're quite literally only here to argue and be antagonistic. Engaging just gives them more ammo. Their spergout earlier got deleted so there's still hope.
>>4203553It's not a spoiler though. It's also not yuri. Bath events in the first game were not automatically romantic. For someone acting so defensively condescending you know very little of the subject.>>4203557You first.>>4203583Nothing I posted was deleted though. This is getting kind of embarrassing for you wannabe oracles.
>>4203598ah yeah who could forget Hades I's famous bath events?
>>4203598>sperging out on people for suggesting they played hades 1 >pretending to have played hades 1 to make shit up about itAt least keep your shitposting consistent
>>4203383Yeah I've heard that coral island is like half finished so I'll probably wait. I played the remastered Wonderful Life to romance the cute redhead but unfortunately it was pretty shallow. I'll try the Portia and Sandrock games, thanks!>>4203530Isn't that one kinda like paper Mario looking? Not that I'm super opposed to that I was just looking for more 3d stuff
>>4203666I missed the 3D part. Just doing a quick search on that there's Palia and Wylde Flowers which I haven't tried. And then there's the my time at Portia which I have.
>>4203672Palia's romance is incredibly shallow, I wouldn't recommend it for yuri.
>>4203672It's okay! I'm open to 2d stuff too. I just want more 3d yuri stuff. You know, I kinda want a Sims kinda game but more personal feeling. Where you can do stuff like go on dates and cook together and stuff. But for now farming next to my cute wife is enough for me
>>4203674Maybe keep an eye out for SunnySide?
>>4203675Sunnyside? I don't think I've heard of it but I'll add it to my wishlist. Thank you
>>4203674The issue would be a lot of them aren't big on romance and the dating aspect. Another one would be Harvestella. Fae farm just released.
>>4203710That's unfortunate. I dunno why something about farming right now just feels really cozy
>>4203713The lesbians yearn for the farm fields.
Friendly reminder that yuri games are coming out (heh) on a regular basis so you don't need to lick the scraps that fall from mainstream het games.
>>4203751you'd still find a reason to bitch if people talked about those.
>>4203763No I wouldn't, because they're actual yuri.
>>4203710I actually really enjoyed Harvestella despite what most of the reviews say, but yeah, the 'romance' is probably in the lowest tier of all the farm games already mentioned.
>>4203751Are there any FPS lesbian games about killing alien scum??
>>4203770Technically Prey's protagonist is a lesbian
>>4203807Sorry, I meant to say upcoming games.Unfortunately I just didn't care for Prey, I think I just don't like immersive sims.
>>4203769>Harvestella's romance is the lowestThat's because it doesn't have any. That is one of the things people complained about, how abyssmally shallow character relationships are. Squeenix actively took all romance out of the game for reasons beyond our understanding. Not that it matter with how trash the game is anyway.
>>4203632No retard, I didn't play it, didn't I just say I don't play het games? I have seen many screenshots and clips though, many of which featured male MC in baths. Not my fault that it's misleading. But look how much you have to crawl over your own feces to somehow try to bite back at my ankles. Hades 1 is not relevant and Hades 2 is not proven to be relevant yet. Either way solo art of a woman is never acceptable.
>>4203849You still made shit up about Hades 1 by claiming bath events were part of it. They weren't. They're a completely new feature for 2.
>>4203863The parts I have seen of male MC in the baths do not contain any romance content, so I said that Hades 1's bath scenes have no romance content. I was 100% correct, it's just that they are not related mechanics.This is completely irrelevant though. (You) have to prove that these are romance related mechanics. The burden of proof is on the idiot posting pics in these threads and making claims. Both pictures posted do not in any way give clarification on this and the posts themselves said they hope it will have yuri. This mean that the pictures aren't actually on topic at all, even if two women were in them (which the first one didn't have).It all comes back to this: Anons fucked up, tried to hide it and now the retard defense squad keeps trying to make this about something it isn't.
>>4203876Seriously dude what the fuck are you talking about? Hades never had baths and the sequel to a game with gay romance having a romance with a character who is obviously a love interest is a pretty obvious conclusion.
>>4203887Your inability to understand what this entire convo was about never fails to astound me. It's not about whether Hades 2 will have yuri. And I'm rather tired repeating myself now.
>>4203899Just take the L and move on
Any news of witch&lilies?
Sorry to interrupt this dude sperging out over Hades 2 hot tubs or whatever for over 24 hours but how is Tchia? I kinda pegged it as one of those open world indie joints that popped up in the post-BOTW rush with a possession mechanic a la Mario Odyssey/Avenging Spirit/Geist, which ain't bad at all if it's done well. I liked Short Hike enough.But I saw it got tagged by the yuri curator on steam. How's the big picture yuri? Looking it up at least gets me kiss scenes.
>>4204044Cute interracial couple....
>>4204044Why do I feel reminded of Wallace and Gromit here?
>>4204088That's an insult to W&G. This artstyle is truly terrible. Probably the worst part of the game.
>>4204044The art style is so bad....
>>4204001No. They're gonna show up for some convention in June which I'd take as a sign that it won't be out before that, but no guarantees. they give monthly updates on their campfire, in case you're fluent in Japanese and a time traveler.
>>4202998>>4203186Are male bath scenes avoidable? How does this work.
>>4204808It's kinda like the gifts from the first game, it's part of the bonding thing. You can totally ignore the guys.
>>4203186
>>4204809Okay cool
>>4204812Gaydes.
>>4204888Some people may not want to see these interactions until the game is officially "out". I won't complain if you post your favorite Hades 2 screenshots without spoilers though, nee-san :)
>Nyx is incredibly popular from the first game>make a second game with a female protagonist>have Nyx's daughter be her carbon copy with extra muscleI smell a lesbian conspiracy. I won't be playing this through EA. I'll get it once its fully launched so I can at least see the "true ending" which they say hasn't even been fleshed out.
>>4203899People's inability to understand your retardation simply means they are not as retarded as you.
>>4205098That's rich coming from the thread's first class retard.
>>4205100You're a moron that gets his kicks from attacking others here, you are completely worthless and nothing you say has any value at all.
>>4205104Why does this look like an ack post?
>>4204976yeah Nemesis is pretty much Megaera crossed with Nyx
>>4204976Nemesis is Nyx's daughter? I guess that makes sense. Doesn't that mean Mel/Nemesis is technically cousins incest or something thoughI'll also be waiting. I kinda feel like jumping into EA does more harm than good even.
>>4205161>Doesn't that mean Mel/Nemesis is technically cousins incest or something thoughIt's Greek mythology. Everyone is related to everyone, is related to Zeus because of course.
>>4205161Anon I have some terrible news about capital c Classical mythology.It'd be more like young aunt+niece close in her age if you tried to plot it out
>>4205164>>4205165Damn. Oh well, if the characters are chill with it then it's no big deal.
>>4205170You're gonna need to pull your head from whatever modern time you think they belong too. Especially since these are interpretations of Ovid and Orphic myths iirc. You don't need to worry and anyone that brings it up is a. completely new to any sort of literature or mythology and 2. an actual child trying to do a very pathetic gotcha.
>>4205161I’m pretty sure they shifted things around so that they’re not actually related in Hades. The MC from the first game can date Nyx’s son too.
>New Western game with Lesbians/yuri in it>Check thread>The sperg is sperging out as usualEvery time like clockwork. Guarenteed if Hades 2 was a Japanese developed game that looked exactly the same there'd be nothing. Rangeban SEA.
>>4205604Obviously, the actual content would have been different. People didn't just woke up one day and decided to hate on Western games for no reason.
>>4205604No lesbians whatsoever, only bisluts. The yuri is most likely minimal and confined to like 1 or 2 options. Please don't overhype this shit to make a dumb point that is almost as retarded as the usual Western game hate brigade. Like you are so unbelievably full of shit. Western games get talked about in these threads all the time and the only fucks who ever make that a problem are a couple of /v/ trolls and of course the mega weebs. I never see you get mad at those though. How strange.
>>4205604>>4205648Oh, good, now the spergs are sperging at each other.
>>4205663>Go to VNDB>Type in game title>Look at tagsMc is a trap, baka nee-san.
>>4205663Hetshit.
>>4205667>>4205671Ok, thanks>VNDBI thought it was another gacha game so I didn't even thought about searching there.
Another female romance option for Hades 2 was discovered; the little spider girl. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Xis_1_PWCw&ab_channel=CGInferno
>>4205802Why did they make Arachne a baby? And why did they choose to make the baby a romance option?
>>4205809Ask Athena
>>4205811Are Athena or Artemis options? I always head-canoned that them being virgins was just code for being turbo-lesbians.
>>4205828The three virgin goddesses were such because of ancient golden era laws during the era of the titans still being applied under the Olympians. Out of the three, Athena is in fact that only one that has a lot of lesbian implications in her myths. It's not even very subtle.Artemis is either completely asexual or in some of the worst myths that were generally derided even by people at the time, involved with one guy once, which would go completely against her vow and all. Probably a hit piece by people who hated the Greek Pantheon.Oh yeah and there is also Hestia. She exists.
>>4205828Athena has been MIA. Artemis, we'll have to see later on in EA. She shows up in three regions so far.There is however Eris as a possible LI. Bath scene and all
>This thread
>>4205828You couldn't romance or really build relationship with the gods in Hades 1, so I'm gonna guess it'll be the same in 2. They mostly only pop up when you get their powers during a run, unlike everyone else in the hub world.
>>4205828Random contribution but there was an interesting ritual priestesses of Athena would perform that I wrote a whatever on for college.In short, in her temple the priestesses would gather together and slather masculine oils upon her naked statue, while reciting a tale in which she would ride her carriage to a forest and pick up a favored companion nymph of hers and then... I don't recall. But amusing, as it was just literally her picking up her date and going for a ride.>>4205830There's the tale of one of Artemis's followers being seduced by Zeus shapeshifting to appear to her as Artemis at least. And there's Aura who fondled her naked breasts while teasing her about having too womanly of a body, but that ended quite poorly.There's also a couple dead ends I've tried to follow on that front. Things like poems written by Sappho's followers that you can find references to but the poems and stories themselves no longer exist. There was also a gay nymph buried specifically in Servius' commentary on the Aeneid but I can't recall if that was an Artemis thing or an Athena thing.
>>4205828>>4205834Artemis and Mel seem to have some sort of sisterhood going on. Also Artemis seems to be awfully close with Calisto in the Hades games.
>>4205802I can't believe the Greek gods are going to invent shibari...
>>4205802The game looks like cancer.
>>4206032Yeah it isn't a typical VN style with Japanese way of drawing and just wall of tets without any real choices kowing how usually they go.And it is also cheaper compared to lets say Crymachina initial release.
>>4206037>yeah it isn't a […] Japanese way of drawing
>>4206032The character art is really bad, that was always a problem with Hades, but it's definitely not any worse than the usual average tier garbage art in most small budget yuri games. At least they make up for it in environmental art design and visual variety.Doesn't change the fact that the yuri in this game willl be superficial as fuck just like always in these roguelikes.
>>4206053>The character art is really badHonestly shit taste.
>>4206055Sorry, but I have been out of my deviantart goth phase for a while sis, so I can't relate. Look at that bath event Mel face that was posted above and tell me that doesn't look like someone tried to badly trace someone else's art too.I honestly would have prefered art inspired by ancient Greek paintings, statues and vases over this anime lite.
>>4206037>>4206055Stop biting everything that moves. Learn to ignore obvious bait>>4206061Get better material
>>4206068You are so mindbroken already that you can't even accept that opinions other then yours exist, huh?
Have fun arguing. I'll post some art in the meantime
>>4206089This pic just proves my point deviantart anon. Also that dialogue is egregious. Grammar? Punctuation? Oof.
>>4206094Do I look like I care? You gotta bark up someone else's tree. So long as it isn't against the rules it's fine to me.
>>4205802she's so cute
In just about a month, Mary Skelter 2 will be exactly 6 years old.And in the last 6 years no other game managed to take its crown. Nothing has come close to being, simultaneously:*as gay as MS2*as pretty as MS2*with characters as good as MS2*being an actual video game which MS2 isAs happy as I am for MS2, it's still kind of depressing how the yuri game industry has only gone downhill ever since.
>>4206236It's het though
>>4206236The worst bait I have seen in a while.
>>4206236Is it the worst bait yet?
>>4206250>>4206266I see you two meant to reply to >>4206247
>>4206270Not really, MS2 is just a shitty game not worth even 1$.
>>4206270You were just wrong about every single point so I assumed you did it on purpose.
>>4206273>wrong about every single point Every point in isolation? Definitely. When combined together? Definitely not.I'd be glad to be proven wrong, though.
>>4206276Why do you believe combining a bunch of 3/10 aspects will result in an overall 8/10? The gameplay is garbage, the yuri is just a single couple surrounded by het, the art us generic Compile Heart waifushit. The writing ranges from mediocre to cringe.There is so very little worthwhile in MS2. Putting it on some imaginary pedestal is absurd.
mary skelter haters be like yea there's a canonical yuri romance that's developed further than most japanese games BUT
>>4206283>the yuri is just a single couple surrounded by hetQuality over quantity.>the art us generic Compile Heart waifushitWhich is still better than 99% of western art.>The writing ranges from mediocre to cringeIt ranges from mediocre to great.Until a proper challenger is presented it appears to me that MS2 remains undisputed as the GOAT (Gayest Of All Time).
>>4206291I mean Samurai Madien is pretty gay and has a more interesting gameplay loop and style compared to the MS series
>>4206291Live in delusion then. Just about every game with yuri in it I have ever played was better, so I pity you.
>>4206270Why is red riding hood’s hood half blue?no seriously what the fuck
>>4206291Are you the author or someone pays you to shill this MS2 shit here?You remind me of that LGTS schizo who defended it like there was no tomorrow.
>>4206347There is no LGTS schizo except for the retard shitting on it every time it gets brought up. The entire thread supported LGTS. Funny how you are always on the wrong side.
>>4206347>Are you the authorYes. Damn! Can't believe my cover was blown that easily. If it wasn't for this clever anonymous to expose my evil plan I would've definitely tricked unsuspecting victims into buying my video game Mary Skelter 2.Now I need to disappear for a while until I can come up with a new disguise.You may have won for now, clever anonymous, but mark my words. I WILL be back. And people WILL buy my game. Farewell.
>>4206236Mary Skelter 2 being the only yuri game that actually stands on its own as a good, if flawed, videogame is a pill really hard to swallow here given how the franchise is for all intends and purposes a het one.
>>4206377It's also a lie, so no need to swallow your placebo.
https://www.gematsu.com/2024/05/witch-lilies-launches-in-early-access-on-may-24
>>4206518Early access? Damn, but I guess that makes sense given it was a crowdfunded thing. Neat.
>>4206518Finally, I wish it was completed already but anything is better than nothing now.
>>4206518>evil version of the mascotif I can't make the mascots kiss I'll riot.
>>4206090>>4206089so is hades2 expected to have actual romance or just little bits of flirtingwhat did hades1 have
>>4206580It had romance, though it's not really an emphasis. It's just part of the bonding system where you can collect items during runs and give them to NPCs to boost their affection.
>>4206236Someday, there will be another yuri romance in a videogame that will come anywhere close to it I'm sure. Until then, I don't mind it remaining the peak, it deserves it.
>>4206585Do you have to samefag to pretend anyone is going along with your joke?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKYNfVyvh1sHere is the 3rd trailer for Witch & Lillies.
>>4206580Hades had a generic affection system across all its important NPCs but John Hades could romance a couple specific characters, male or female. It wasn't just text box fluff since there were gameplay benefits to improving your relationship with other characters.
>>4206609It's still textbox fiuff in regards to the romance. It's really shallow. Better than nothing, but that's about it. At least it will give /u/ a way to pretend there is a good yuri roguelike now, even though it's not yuri focused in any way.
>>4206518>Player's RivalWill they somehow work in a "POV character in the hub area" romance plot?
>>4206614maybe they'll throw in some ways that the 5th wheel of your team can get a girlfriend.
>>4206598So the game will have real NPCs too, ones that are actually consistently written. I'm not sure how the rival thing will work... but with this being a yuri game surely they will avoid the trap of some undefined self-insert. You have to play as a girl, right?I've said it before, but the extremely detailed and grotesque monster designs really clash with the cutedy artstyle of the characters. That centipede with a woman't head is nightmare fuel.
>>4206620Is it not going to be like Etrian Odyssey where the party is 5 at a time but everybody else on the team is just back at base?5th wheel could have a girlfriend she's just chilling at home.
>>4206622I haven't seen any mention of that. It'd make sense since it's trying to be an EO clone, but they may not want you to blow through every class interaction on your first playthrough.
>>4206621Have you played any other games like these before? It's par of the course, even Etrian Odyssey is the same with the artstyleThey probably handed off the character art and the monster art to different set people since it takes different kind of skills.
>>4206612Are you expecting fully animated sex scenes?
>>4206658Pathetic stock reponse. But sure, why the fuck not? Give me proper sex with mythological monster girls.But until some dev has the guts to do that, at least give in-depth romance instead of like 3 side-events of talking to a character and raising their affection blandly and calling it romance.
>>4206518So it's Etrian Odyssey with yuri?
I'm surprised that Mary Skelter 2 hasn't been banned from the board yet; the sole mention of it baits /u/ so hard at this point it should count as trolling.
>>4206692>at this point it should count as trollingNot helped by the fact that actual shitposters above tried exactly that. But banning a yuri game being disucssed is retarded. Just shut your piehole and ignore the retards.
>>4206693That's the problem: it isn't discussed. Not only no one wants to discuss it but the only thing mentioning its name accomplishes is provoking people. I would simply ban any mention of the game as trolling and get over with it rather than engaging on pointless academic discussion about the merits of banning or not a game.
>>4206695I've discussed it normally before. It is a great game worth knowing about, and I only checked it out because /u/ recommended it.If we banned discussion of any game that some lunatic flips out over we'd have nothing to discuss. Just ask people here what their favorite yuri games are and wait for some dipshit to become enraged at whatever is brought up for any of a dozen different reasons.
>>4206701Just give up anon, not a single anon will buy or downlaod it due to your ranting.
>>4206701Stop calling anons lunatics for telling you how mediocre the game is. Not a single person saying MS2 is bad was wrong. The only problem is that some shitposters (hint hint) keep bringing up MS2 for the sole purpose of baiting those reactions.Don't be a fucking retard and pretend that those posts weren't baiting. Now do as I told the other anon and shut your piehole.
>>4206713>>4206716No, I'm here to discuss yuri games I enjoy or hope to enjoy in the future and so that's what I will continue doing, regardless of whatever retardation others engage in. I don't care about someone baiting, at all. The bait wouldn't happen to begin with if people ignored the loons.
>>4206721So in your little mind proper discussion means monologuing praises about a game?
>>4206721>I'm here to discuss yuri gamesAnd yet you mention MS2
>>420677190% of /u/'s catalog at any time is /u/nrelated. Hell, we even have an active Hibike Euphonium thread.
>>4206793>90%Stop fucking lying. And how many more times do you need to be told that this is a thread only abnout yuri games. It doesn't matter whether other threads focus on posting yuri fan content of het series.Not that the troll saying MS2 has no yuri is correct, but both of you are deeply retarded.
>>4206802And we wouldn't go through this shitstorm if Mary Skelter 2 were banned. Neesan is right; that game is just bait, used maliciously every single time.
>>4206803You are the fucker who restarted that "conversation". You are a shitposter who intentionally keeps bringing up how the game should be banned from conversations, excactly to cause a shitstorm. You piece of shit.Now for anyone else reading what this retard said...There are plenty of games that cause arguments in this thread, like Little Goody Two Shoes. Nobody will ban these damn games from discussion. Period. Just learn to shut the fuck up and ignore it. If nobody responds, trolls lose interest.
>>4206688yeah, I'm pretty sure "Etrian Odyssey with yuri" was part of the pitch they used on their crowdfunding page
>>4206771MS2 is a yuri game. No amount of mental gymnastics can change that.
>>4206912Is it a yuri game or a RPG crawler game with some side yuri content in it through?
>>4206920It's a RPG crawler belonging to an het waifufag franchise with some side yuri content. It's basically as much of a yuri game as the AAA western games posted on these threads.
>>4206933well apparently we can't talk about those either
>>4206920Mary Skelter 2 is a dungeon crawler whose two main protagonists are a yuri couple and their romance is the focal point of the story, which features hours of cutscenes despite its genre usually having little. You knew if you'd simply played it.
>>4206975No chance for that, I saw it promo, didn't like the art, didn't like the game mechanics either and the price is too much for it anyway and I won't pirate shit cause it isn't worth it.
>>4206981That's fair but don't speak bullshit about it when other people discuss it.
>>4206986Nobody discusses it, we see one anon praising it and then crying on negative comments from other anons here.For discussio you need 2 or more people, if one person praises something without care for other opinions it is a monologue.We see something similair in Hibike thread where one retard is doing everything to convince other Hibike work is a yuri anime where everybody knows it isn't.
>>4206987Someone literally just answered a question on the content of the game
>>4207015Your post has absolutely nothing to do with what I said you unbelievably blatant tourist.
>>4207015Nobody does that though, that's like the definition of a strawman.
I’m adding some GBA games to my phone, and I remember the Summon Night Swordcraft Story games getting brought up here a few times. Somebody remind me what the relevant content is.
>>4207053In Summon Night 1, you get a spirit companion early on who sticks with you for the whole game. One of them, Sugar, is extremely flirty and gay. Nothing super serious ever happens, like there's not really romance per se, but it's still cute and gay.
>>4207015>Anon posting like this is /u/ in 08No one here plays games like that anymore. /U/ isn't starved for content anymore we have options nowr
>>4207053To elaborate on what >>4207054 said, the first Swordcraft Story is the most yuri relevant, mostly due to Sugar, and it isn't just the usual case of them being too lazy to change the dialog between the male and female protagonists. Pic related; Sugar doesn't kiss male!PC at all and is much flirtier with fem!PC. There are also several other scenes with other female characters that are goggleable, if not outright subtextual.SS2 is much less gay, but there's a female demon companion with subtext, and one of the other female characters offers to kiss the main character regardless of gender. Still a good game regardless.
got recommended this game as yuri, but it just looks like torture/trauma porn
>>4207133It basically is yeah.
>>4207133That's exactly what's it's is.
>>4207133It's very, very dark and the yuri content has asterisks. Never finished it personally even though it was a fun game, but supposedly there's some substantial gay towards the end. Was also stuff at the start but iirc not particularly happy stuff.
>>4207133No games from this line are good for the yuri. It's always something obtuse, roundabout or stupid. The writers for these games have just something wrong with their brains and are obssessed with misery porn.If you played The Witch and the Hundred Knight or that absolute shitfest Labyrinth of Galleria you know what you are in for.
>>4206692MS2 is small-time on the controversy scale. Call me when an entire thread gets deleted over it.
Drop it already you drama obssessed bitches.
>>4207057I'm more mixed on those statements. Sugar definitely lusts after protag, but she does so regardless of gender (not sure what you mean by her being less flirty?). And even though it's something you'd rather forget, her only reason for obssessing with Pratty is that she was so in love with her father, who basically sold his future child to her as a replacement to get her off his back. She even states at one point that she finds protag attractive because they resemble their father and holds active enmity for protag's mother.So basically a playersexual bislut as we know them well.Much more interesting is the loli that everone mistakes for a boy, Razzy, because she from the get go is into Pratty and until you figure out she is a girl you would think that was just normal het behaviour (which it is if you play the male protag, but ironically male protag assumes Razzy is gay), but she is totally into Pratty too.Also Pratty herself is interesting, because she isn't a blank slate self-insert. Meaning that when she responds to Sugar's or Razzy's feelings she is actually admitting to being into girls and has to overcome her own self-perception. She often tries to be dismissive about it or says they are both girls so it is weird for them to come onto her, but she eventually relents.But yeah, if you don't get Sugar as your Guardian Beast it's almost a barren wasteland in regards to yuri until the very late Razzy events. So keep reloading the intro until you answer the questions right and get her.
Anyone played this ? is it good ?>>4203136souce ?
>>4207402I did. It's cute.
>>4207281I agree with all of these. People really look at Sugar with rose-tinted glasses. But wasn't there also another "flirt/love-interest" besides Sugar and Razzy that is available very early on in the game?It's been ages since I played that game but I recall a red-haired ojou-sama type that is also into protag.
>>4207421Are you talking about Sanary? She's sort of red haired, but not an ojou-sama and she is definitely not a love interest to Pratty. I don't remember how she acts with Cheru, but with Pratty she acts like a close platonic friend.
>>4207275What did Tokyo Necro have yuri bait in it or something?
>>4207466Shut the fuck up. If you recognize the game then you wouldn't ask that question. Just keep your retardation impulse down for one fucking moment and just let it slide.
>>4207467I'm being sincere here, it's on my steam wishlist and I'm asking a legit question Calm down
>>4207469No you are not. A single fucking glance at the synopsis or even a modicum of research would answer all your questions. You saw that it was brought up to bait an argument. Just. Move. On.
>>4207466As you can tell from people immediately trying to start trouble the second you mention it, yeah it's controversial lol. The main girl is like unashamedly only into girls but she's only one protag out of two and there's a lot of mandatory het scenes.
>>4207475Nobody is starting trouble, I'm trying to nip this nonsense in the bud. This is not worth discussing again.
>>4207475Oh thanks for the heads upGood to know when I finally start reading it
>>4207479Well I got my question answeredSo please go drink your lavender tea, Nee-san
>>4207485As long as you learn when to keep quiet you can get your tea. Then again, you are clearly a /v/tard so you probably love mountain dew.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2939470/Clear_Skye_Thinking/new ebi-hime released
>>4207487You seem very familiar with what /v/tards are like, sis. Spend a lot of time there, do you?
>>4207493It's already out? Feels like it was just teased last week.Can I say how much I dislike this artist's attempt at drawing black people? It looks so bad and unnatural. Like they were actually glazed with chocolate or something. The hair color being nearly identical to the skin tone is probably the main offender.
>>4207495You keep coming here, so I have little choice in the matter. Eventually you can just tell who the tourists are.
Next Assassin's Creed will debut with a trailer tomorrow and possibly release in NovemberAllegedly staring a m*le samurai and a female ninja, hope you aren't forced to play as both so I can just play the ninja the whole time but I'm not counting on it
>>4207511>Allegedly staring a m*le samurai and a female ninja, hope you aren't forced to play as both so I can just play the ninja the whole time but I'm not counting on itThis is what I'm afraid off, if both had free class to choose I bet we could choose protag, but if both have quite different playing styles I'm starting to belive their stories will be connected where we are forced to play both characters or worse they are connected in some romantic way, I hope not they won't pull off GTA 6 approach caus if that will happen I will simply ignore the title.
>>4207497Yea, it definitely looks much better in her BL ones than here by a wide margin
>>4207497seemed more like the artist was trying to make her south asian, but yeah her hair would look better if it was darker. also her face is just too similar to the ginger's.
>>4207514They had a similar setup in Syndicate, and as far as I remember, you could play as the female assassin for most of the game except for some mandatory dude segments.
>>4207527I'm 85% sure it was the opposite.You played most of Syndicate as the brother and had some segments as the sister. They later attempted to remedy this somewhat with one (or two?) of the DLCs that let you mainly play the sister.
>>4207535That's not how it worked, you could freely switch between the two in most missions. There were some mandatory segments where you couldn't, but that was nowhere near close to 85%.
>>4207535>>4207536Disregard that 85% thing, I'm tired and misread the post. Still, the whole double assassin quirk was about letting you switch between the brawler guy and the stealthy sister at will. You definitely didn't have to play most of Syndicate at the brother.
>>4207498I’ve literally never been to /v/, unlike you.
>>4207537>https://gamerant.com/assassins-creed-syndicate-evie-jacob-screentime/>all in all, Jacob has twenty-four main quests, while Evie has a mere twelve. There are an additional seven quests where either Syndicate twin could be the player character.
>>4207511I’m still ignoring Ubisoft after the Odyssey DLC bullshit.
>>4207527I won't spend so much money on a game where I can't even play as female MC fully so hard pass if that approach will turn true.That is deal breaker, would be strange approach after seeing Oddyssey and Valhalla but it wouldn't surrpise me how shitty Ubisoft will became seeing boring Mirage before.
>>4207541Huh. My bad then, it's been so long ago that I must've forgotten how many story quests the brother got because I spent most of the time between missions playing as the sister.
>>4207543They literally made Mirage like that because people kept complaining about Oddyssey and Valhalla's heavy action RPG style. Guess you can't win with this retarded fanbase. People who would buy and play AssCreed aren't too bright.
>>4207543>>4207547My wishful thinking is that both characters will exist and the one you don't pick will simply be an ally you do a lot of questing with.But given the more or less confirmed rumors of who the samurai is, I'm skeptical they would just let you sideline him like that, so, yeah, not counting on it but I'll hold out a sliver of hope.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/821880/Idol_Manager/Okay I'm biting the bullet and want to try this game. In the past anons talked about how you can mess with the files to turn all girls into lesbians instead of it being a random trait. Can anyone explain this to a total moron who can barely understand ini files?What do I need to change to make every idol a dyke and what else can I change to improve the experience? I think someone also said you can make it so that every idol is fine dating the female manager.
Remember to check out Trash in the Flower Garden, it's very gay and the dev is working on new routes for other characters.
>>4207555I don't remember the fuckery you have to pull, but check out the mods in the workshop. Some stuff in there makes the game even more /u/ friendly.
>>4207563I don't buy Early Access stuff. If the full game ever comes out I'll give it a try though.>>4207570>check out the mods in the workshop. Some stuff in there makes the game even more /u/ Really? I took a cursory glance and the most popular mods generally just add new skins for the idols. The other two that are somewhat relevant are the patch that brings back the sexual content from the beta and a mod that foxes the systems which seem to be so buggy that many traits don't appear.
>>4207555iirc there's literally a line in the ini file about the percentage of gay girls. Put it to 100 and bam you're done
Ninja girl from the new Ass CreedStill dont know if you can just play as her or forced to play both characters
>>4207597That's the same damn promotional art we had for her a year ago, dumbass.
>>4207573I can't actually find the correct file. This is why I don't usually mess with this stuff... I found several config files, but none of them related to the values in the game. I wish I would at least know what folder it is supposed to be in or what it's called. But nobody out there seems to have done this, everyone just talks about modding tools.
>>4207555First, scout a few idols. How many is up to you. Save the game and then close it.Then go to C drive/[USER NAME]/LocalLow/Glitch Pitch/Idol Manager/data and look for the save folder, however it's called. The file you want is called "save.json".Open that json file in an editor and search "sexuality". 0 is het, 1 is bi, 2 is lesbian.Replace that value with what you want (obviously, 2) and save that file. Replace the old save file with the one you just made.>>4207563This is either misery porn or gore porn. I can just tell.
>>4207604>First, scout a few idols. How many is up to you. Save the game and then close it.I'm a moron. I tried to change the values in the general configs, but didn't realize that this is of course save editing stuff. Yeah if I start an actual run I get a save config file... Thanks for the help. I was going mad trying to mess with json files like a clown.
>>4207572>Really?Yeah, really. Don't remember the details though. Good luck?
Has anyone played Tristia: legacy/restore? is it any good?
>>4207542that whole story becomes really, really funny once you learn they managed to piss off GLAAD over it too. Not because GLAAD was heavily invested in Kassandra being gay, but Ubisoft released the DLC right before GLAAD was about to give them the first ever award for outstanding representation in games, and GLAAD had to eat crow and put out a notice as to why the game was still nominated at all.Only Ubisoft could go from the top good boys for the LGBT in gaming to the bottom at the worst possible time.
>>4207736Oh jeez, is this some kind of convention of shitty topics from the past? Tristia has no real yuri. The party members crush on MC, but she doesnt reciprocate. The end.
>>4207749I don't get how this is bad "LGBT representation" though. Kassandra and male MC are canonically bsiexual. This isn't really up to the player. Last I saw the B in LGBT is still there.The shitfest is just how Ubisoft screwed over people's choice of love interest for retarded half-assed lore nobody cares about. Even if they patched in an option to say that you are only doing it for practical reasons and don't care about the partner that protag has the kid with. Then again, with the whole immortality thing after getting the spear of Atlantis I assume Kassandra banged thousands of women across the millenia.
>>4207598The other one has Yasuke in it, so it's kinda a bust
>>4207762>is this some kind of convention of shitty topics from the past?I don't know why you think it's so strange that among billions of people on earth some of them occcasionally run into games they haven't played, wonder how yuri they are, and go to the thread of people who are supposed to be experts on the subject to ask about it.
>>4207765iirc part of why people were SO pissed was that the achievement for the forced het relationship was called 'Growing Up' or something, so it added an extra layer of implying that all that gay fooling around you might have done earlier was Just A Phase and of course you'd settle down and get married like a normal person eventually. Typical biphobia.
>>4207828As usual, I wonder why the concept of doing minimal research is so foreign to you. Instead of asking people to spoonfeed you, why not do the absolute bare minimum and check the game out yourself?
>>4207830>instead of asking someone who has already played it (10 minutes, free), why don't you just play the game yourself and see if it has yuri (up to several hours, not free)?Gee, I wonder.
>>4207829That's just Ubisoft being 100% tone deaf, not an actual attack on LGBT though. The idea is that Kassandra takes the next step in life, aka starting a family. But Kassandra doesn't actually get married or settle down. The entire thing is actually pretty clinical and almost contractual if you don't pretend to like the boytoy. Make baby, raise baby, go back to adventuring... would be how it would have gone, if the timeskip didn't literally lead directly to the baby's other parent getting murdered by Persians to defend the child and Kassandra going on a revenge/rescue quest with the grandpa (who then takes said baby to Egypt, because being in proximity to Kassandra is basically asking to get the child mortality rate to 100%).I think you can tell from this that Ubisoft literally just shoehorned this in so Kassandra's special alien genes get passed on and make this the technical start of the AssCreed main bloodline. The idiots forgot that you always have a sibling (aka the other protag option) who could have made children in your stead. I know there are several outcomes and some of them have the sibling getting killed towards the end of the story, but the child could have been made beforehand.Basically the writers were just lazy and it bit them in the ass.
>>4207831Are you retarded? I never said play the game.
>>4207835>check the game out yourself
>>4207836Check it out as in do some minimal research, the thing I have repeatedly said in that post. Could it be that you are dyslexic?
>>4207762>>4207830i dont constantly lurk this thread so i wouldnt know if its been discussed endlessly or not>Instead of asking people to spoonfeed youthis is the yuri games thread, i am asking your opinions on a game with yuri in it. Dont pretend like i interrupted some important discussion >do the absolute bare minimum and check the game out yourselfthats not the bare minimum, thats playing the game. are you the type of person to watch a movie before asking your friend if its worth seeing? >Tristia has no real yuri.i already know theres no actual yuri and its just one-sided crushes and subtext, but thats good enough for me. i was asking how good it was and how the yuri was handled also the person youve been replying to isnt me
>>4207837How is asking somebody who has already played it on a forum dedicated to talking about yuri in video games not "minimal research"? Unless you're deathly afraid of interacting with people and think that nobody ever should ask questions, lest it gives you a panic attack.
>>4207840>I ask opinionsNo you didn't. You asked a basic fact about the game you could find out in 45 seconds on your own. In which case you would have found out it is not yuri and never brought this irrelevant game up in this thread. Do you now understand the logic here? We can avoid so much off-topic shit by people doing minimal research. Asking legit questions about games with actual yuri content is a different matter. But at least clear that bar retard. We don't want people posting fucking trailers for trap MC games again like that one idiot did last week.
>>4207841A game without yuri should not be expected to be played or discussed by people in the yuri thread. Do you not see the contradiction?
>>4207842are you off your meds, anon?
>>4207844>wants to talk about non-yuri games, explicitely stating he knows it's not yuri>"Are YOU of your meds? How dare you rebuke me for this!"
>>4207843>A game without yuri should not be expected to be played or discussed by people in the yuri threadtheres multiple posts shilling assassins' creed in this very thread>>4207845>knows it's not yuriits not explicit yuri, but it still has lesbians in it. It IS yuri enough next your dumbass is going to say that revue starlights VN cant be discussed here since its also not explicit
>>4207828>>4207840If you ask a question in this general, I highly recommend ignoring any response that antagonizes you for daring to talk about something that's been talked about before in the past. It's the same exact guy who always freaks out about it, he monitors the thread 24/7 and expects every single person on the board to do the same.
>>4207847>shillingTalking about a game with yuri content and mostly criticizing it for how badly it handled it is shilling, because...?>there are lesbians in it os it's yuriNot how it works, never how it worked. This isn't the Hella Yuri thread where we discuss things that remotely mention lesbians exist, this is only about explicit yuri. A singular lesbian is as worthless to /u/ as a straight woman.>Reveu Starlight gameOh fuck, I feel for a troll's bait again. Fuck you too then.
>>4207848I antagonize people for talking about off-topic games. Get your strawman in order.
Any akai Ito anons here? I originally wanted to play without a walkthrough (I started Sakuya's route after getting “Running around - Shipwreck” ending) but after getting 6 different endings and still being unable to get her true ending I decided to look it up but even with a walkthrough I couldn't get it. Is the reason why I can't get Sakuya's true ending because I haven't finished other routes? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3099997730According to this walkthrough Uzuki's roulte is the only one without locked endings and it's recommended to finish Uzuki's, Tsuzura's and Yumei's routes before Sakuya's. Do I need to finish all of them before getting Sakuya's true end?
>>4207898I got all the endings using that guide but I don't remember what order I did things in. Sometimes the walkthrough expects you to have followed it perfectly in the past in order to unlock stuff though, so there can be requirements which are hidden and not obvious.Try reading the linked Japanese guides as well because they sometimes explain the seals better - with the English guide next to you you should be able to understand the auto-translate
>>4207834The DLC in question was made by an entirely separate team, including the writers. The main game, including the writers and directors, made statements prior to release saying that the MCs would have no set sexual orientations and the players could do whatever they wanted with the love interests, unlike prior games. I guess the DLC team didn’t get the memo.And the main issue isn’t that it pissed off players, it’s that you have one of the oldest pro-LGBT organizations in existence describing what was once your most progressive product like this:>“At worst, this sends the harmful message that sexual orientation can be changed at will and that LGBTQ people can choose to conform to heteronormative expectations in spite of their identities,” GLAAD said.Going from first place to that doesn’t look great as far as ESG goals are concerned. They ended up giving the award to ESO, btw
>>4207929Everything about this is stupid. Giving AssCreed any kind of award for making every character playersexual is silly, that wasn't revolutionary in any way. Acting like homosexuals making children to fulfill their "duty" in ancient Greece being something new is also dumb. If you just want to critisize the practice, tough luck, it's the wrong setting.Then finally, giving fucking ESO that award is just as stupid. Do they have any interest in actual LGBT media or do they just pick a random mainstream game and praise it for doing the minimum?Honestly, what a shitshow.
>>4207942>Giving AssCreed any kind of award for making every character playersexual is silly, that wasn't revolutionary in any wayAbsolutely but that's kind of how I feel about most game awards. "Let's assign some random superlatives to the five biggest-selling games released this year!" It's more about hype than about real recognition. I have no idea what the actual most innovative gay game of a year would be, but you'd have to actually play a ton of gay games for a start instead of just looking at whatever's popular and then slapping more ribbons on them.
>>4207942>If you just want to critisize the practice, tough luck, it's the wrong setting.They're not criticizing the Ancient Greece, they're criticizing modern Ubisoft.
>>4207947It doesn't have to be gay anyway, these days they will probably give the award to games that have trans or NB characters in them.>>4207949No shit Sherlock, the point was that the game's setting itself justifies the concept, even if it's not something you want to see. If they would have given that award to the game for half-assed playersexual romance content, then the DLC is barely even relevant.
As AC Shadows go two fixed protags where you have to play as black guy samurai along the japanese ninja girl is the worst way it might go.I hope the MC isn't fixed and we are allowed to choose with who we want to play with.Both can have similiar starting points anyway, the ninja father is dead and her story starts, the black guy is this noble guy retainer and he wants to avenge his master death.I really hope they won't do the same shit as GTA6 is doing where they forced the connection between two MCs.
>>4207954>the game's setting itself justifies the conceptNo, it does not. It's a fictional setting with fucking ancient civilizations in it. The writers had full control over what they wrote, and they consciously chose to write the dumbest shit possible. If someone writes an Ancient Greece-inspired story where the female protagonist only sleeps with female characters in 2024, and then writes a sequel where she MUST sleep with a male character to propagate her genes, then I will call them a retarded hetcuck, and I will call you the same for trying to defend it with "but muh historical accuracy".
>>4207961How many more times are you going to repeat this? We don't need to hear it six times. We get it already.
>>4207962Fuck yourself. I can't stand this retarded arguing for arguing's sake. You know exactly what I meantl, why I'm right and why your hair splitting is worthless. Get a life.
>>4207966Don't cry anon, there will be a lot of bitching here anyway when it will turn out the way most people here hate.
>>4207970Nobody here talked about Valhalla when it came out even though you could play a lesbian Viking with zero caveats. So why do we need to suffer this? It's because it takes place in the weeb setting, isn't it?
>>4207972>It's because it takes place in the weeb setting, isn't it?Well can you balme some of us?I always wanted to get a game where I can play as japanese girl and roam the islands and seduce girls.The letdown will be quite bad if suddenly they decided to not deliver where they didn't have problems before to do it with Oddyssey and Valhalla.But Mirage should be a warning sign, ancient Muslim setting and of course you can't play as a woman seducing women in it.
>>4207973What warning sign? Mirage is literally just bog standard old-school AssCreed with a bland male MC, like it was always done, because that is what some idiots wanted. It has nothing to do with the Muslim setting.They already explained a while ago that they want to alternate traditional AssCreed with RPG AssCreed. And both suck.I get though, I guess. I mostly enjoyed Oddyssey only because I really like Greece as a setting. That's probably what weebs feel when they see samurailand. It's still just AssCreed. If it bothers you ignore it, like we've always done. You got Rise of Ronin now where you can also play a woman making out with other women in Japan.
>>4207967Not really. In the DLC the whole thing was very badly implemented, as it’s just the new writers going with one LI out of a possible dozen so they don’t have to account for any of the players many choices and ended up with actual bigotry in their new game, which unsurprisingly came off as the developers themselves endorsing this kind of thing.If you really get down to it, it’s why consultants like Sweet Baby get work. None of the DLC team saw an issue with this, which cost the main team an award and probably tanked Ubisoft’s stock on ESG points
>>4207983No seriously, you never understood what I was talking about. Stop wasting my time.
>>4207979I'm only PC player so no I don't have RoR.
>>4207987Invest into a time machine or take the slightly less expensive route of getting a PS5.
>>4207972I talked about Valhalla a little when it came out, but it seemed like no one else was playing it so I stopped.
>>4207989>but it seemed like no one else was playing itGiven the shit they pulled with Odyssey, can you blame anyone here?I and many others ain't ever forgiving or forgetting what Ubisoft did. Sure, it was a different team that worked on the DLC, but Ubisoft still gave it the green light and did pretty much nothing about it when the shit hit the fan.Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
>>4208006Lost what?
So double protags route for AC Shadows, fuck these fuckers.
>>4208027I saw the cinematic trailer but has the gameplay features been confirmed yet?
>>4208041Their story is connected, granted the female has the hidden blade so she is the true assassin protag and hell she looks hot as hell, the samurai looks more like some mentor figure in revenge type of story, but it is rather certain it will go Syndicate route or maybe not but chances are slim.It would be nice if Nao is the player choice for most of the game where she is MC and the guy just comes as comrade in arms for some missions, but I doubt it.
>>4208017We lost the fuckGive back the fuck
>>4208049I can't, I don't have any more left to give.
Thanks Madokami or Homucifer.

>>4207844>implying anon ever took their meds to begin withAnon is the only one capable of governing this thread and the sole judge of what is and isn’t yuri, and medication is a conspiracy by the anti-yuri forces of East Asia to silence him.
It was brought up briefly earlier but is Gundam Operation Fairy yuri?
>>4208193No
>>4208201:(
>>4208053Wonder if Yasuks will actually end up being her mentor or some such.
Please please please PLEASE let there lesbian romance/sexy time....I dont care if it's shallow
>Most main quests can be completed as either Yasuke or Naoe, allowing for freedom of approach. However, both characters also have their own specific missions playable only by them, as well as bespoke introduction quests.From IGN, I guess it's not a complete "win"
>>4208258It's just Syndicate again. Just accept it already.
>>4208258People would also call it not a win if choosing to be female made no difference though
>>4208258Better than nothing as long I can play whole game as the female and I can have her own romances or personal quests I'm for it.You had the same thing in Oddysey with Kassandra/Alexios.Valhalla with male/female Eivor - in that case there wasn't really difference who you played as.
>>4208258So how tha works?I had choosen the femeale as playable MC but during any main quest I'm gonna be able to change and play as the samurai if wanted?
>>4208270That’s not comparable at allYou played Odyssey as your chosen sibling, I don’t remember any part that forced you to play as “Deimos”
Was Valhalla actually any good?
>>4208289>I don’t remember any part that forced you to play as “Deimos”Nothing so far implies you will be forced to play as one, you will have the same system you got in Valhalla where at will you will be able to swap, in Valhalla you could do it between genders, so I bet the same shit system will be used here, we already know there will be specific quests aimed at both protags but maybe just in their own playtime during their personal storyline and not in open map when you play as different MC to hijack the story.
>>4208297I'm FINE with the two of them each having at least an introduction quest.But the way IGN's line is phrased, implies that at certain stages of the MAIN quest, you will be forced to take on the roles of specific characters. Maybe chapter 4 wants you to play as Yasuke and fend off an ambush or something, I dont know, I rather not have that.If it was fully swappable, it would have said ALL main quests, not just MOST.
>>4208293Not that anon. Haven’t played it. I can only assume it was exactly the same as every other generic reskinned Ubisoft open-world game.Unless you’re asking about the GL, in which case I assume it was probably similar to Odyssey, just without the previously mentioned DLC bullshit.
>>4208301Ubisoft tends to promise the world at reveal, only to gradually walk most of it back by the time games reach release.Right now they are downplaying Yasuke (because they know a lot of players aren't interested in the WE WUZ KANGS shit in Japan, a setting AC fans have been asking for over a decade). I have a feeling by the time the game releases we will have something similar to Syndicate, where you can technically play with whatever character you want in free-roam but the dude is actually the main character for most missions.
>>4208301There's probably some rudimentary shit like Yasuke serving Nobunaga (for all of that one year he did) and whatever Naoe was getting up to. It seems to look like they're meeting during the invasion of the Iga territory and it goes from there, or maybe it'll skip to after Honno-ji.
>>4208315I feel like Yasuke is getting downplayed, because they'll probably replace him with William Adams down the line.
>>4208293If you liked Odyssey it's more of the same except a little bit of more combat styles. You can dual wield shields for example.
>>4207979>Rise of RoninNot that anon. Woah, I took a look at youtube videos of the game. Looks like Jade Empire with sort of more yuri romance options. Wish I could play on the PC. If it's true, that they are going multi-platform, then maybe we could play on the PC in sooner time.
>>4208349Obnoxious anon playing the game currently here, it's basically a discount AssCreed anyway, and the romance options are enjoyable but four of them have previous ties to men, some more overt than others. Providing this list because this is the sort of thing that's make-or-break for some anons. I've condensed it as much as I can, I'm sorry.The princess is the widow of a shogun and she talks about him a bit. The cat-hoarding geisha is a geisha (but she's more resigned to the work than enjoying it). There's another older lady geisha but she doesn't make it and is probably the old fling of your early-game enemy. There's a cool dojo daughter fighter girl but when you meet her she's obsessed with your guy buddy Ryouma even though he doesn't want her so you have to change her mind. Then there's another widow who's cute, but, yknow. She was married to a dude also.As far as I know the doctor lady has no prior attachments.

1000 resistanyone played this? Someone described it as 'signalis with lesbians' which is both appealing and very surprising to me, as signalist already had lesbians
>>4208398I've been interested in trying it for a while, but I don't recall any of the discussion about it mentioning lesbians. It's not on the Hella Yuri list and doesn't even have any romance-related user tags. I found one Steam discussion thread that says it has "heavily implied LGBTQ+ stuff", so overall I'd rate the chances of it having explicit yuri pretty low.
>>4208398>humanity is all militant clones of the same womanWell it looks cool regardless. Just played a Rimworld game with that concept a few months ago.I'd be surprised if it had absolutely nothing. Not getting anything out of the tags or reviews right away though.
>>4208293I actually liked Valhalla>brings back social stealth elements>combat is an improvement over Origins/Odyssey>map isn't obnoxiously fuckhueg like Odyssey>more interesting climbing puzzles>several missions can be approached stealthily or you can just say fuck it and go rampaging viking setting things on fire, with contextual dialogue and events to match>assassination on almost everybody except for bosses, going back to the stealth stuff>game doesn't shit out a dozen pieces of equipment at you every 5 minutes, all equipment found is unique>emphasis is made on upgrading weapons and armor, fully upgraded starter axe is almost at the same level as the actual Excalibur or Gungnir and is perfectly viable to use>actually have a home base, so a couple of your romance options aren't just random dialogue flings but women that live in the same village as you(though there are quite a few Odyssey-style optional sexual encounters)I guess the most important thing for this place is that Ubisoft learned from their Odyssey fuckup and doesn't try to force anything on the player.That said, it's real easy to lock yourself out of the good ending if you take the obvious bait in having Eivor romance Sigurd's wife Randvi too soon, when it's not the right time and without buffering against the failure check with the other big choices.
>>4208400I'm playing through it right now so I'll report in how it goes. 1 prologue and a chapter in and the story is basically all but outright saying a girl confessed to the girl that all the clones are made from.Some of the minor NPC clones in their clone society have some interesting interclone interactions.
>>4208400>It's not on the Hella Yuri listToo new - someone just mentioned it to them and they're seeking more information.
>>4208424Oh, I guess it did just come out. I've had the demo installed for ages, so I thought it was at least a year old by now.
>>4208361Thanks for the summary. That's a detailed rundown.
>>4208404That does sound like it fixes some of the problems with Odyssey. I liked Odyssey but I could never finish it because the gigantic world and terrible rpg systems just got exhausting
>>4208407To clarify, it's not just some cute background text, the relationship between Iris(the original girl all the clones were made from) and Jiao is the focus of the first chapter, and the presentation of anguish and regret as the chapter builds towards its climax was when the game really hooked me. That "this is a fucking elevated experience" moment in a video game. I would liken it the equivalent of Signalis's elevator moment. when the photo in Elster's inventory changes and game really starts hammering you with the mindfucks.
>>4208506As to the clones, they openly talk and gossip about relationships between them. Not a lot of options besides technical selfcest when you're the only sapient entities around.And of course, violence, disease, being sent over to fight the eternal war with the alien invaders. So on top of the OG girl and her experiences in the beforetime, we just got a constant conveyor belt of tragic lesbian relationships inside their vault society.
>>4208507>a constant conveyor belt of tragic lesbian relationships inside their vault societyI'm sold.
>>4208506>>4208507I'm sold, thank you
>>4208375>>4208385I see she is still obssessed with pseudo-vampires. That serialized manga she did was so weird and over-the-top dramatic.
>>4208404>map isn't obnoxiously bigBut that was the entire point. Explore all of Greece. Feels like a real adventure in the real area and you can see everything.I also don't really care about stealth mechanics in a freaking Vikings game.The rest seems like good improvements though. I'd still rather play Oddyssey again, but without the First Blade DLC (which you can just disable or not start).
>>4208361Are those all the options though or just the ones you found? I'm pretty sure I saw more than 5 options on a list before.
>>4208507Why would they make all the clones fall in love with each other over and over? Are they stupid?
>>4208531I guess the original was just a narcisstic lesbian who really wanted to bang herself, so all her clones are the same.
>>4208521Ubisoft's worlds are just too boring to explore everything for the sake of it. Nice to look at, but ultimately empty husks.I remember playing Origins, I finished the main story but like half of the map was still unexplored. So I went to those places and it was just empty desert. Honestly the RPG AssCreed's could make their maps half the size and it would be an improvement.
>>4208521Personally I'm always an advocate for smaller well crafted maps over fucking massive maps full of either nothing or the same minigame over and over.
>>4208540That's because Egypt IS half a desert. Greece was differerent as a map. It is actually fun to explore. I enjoyed charting out the entire map, seeing all the antique sights and exploring villages that are now cities or even cities that no longer exist. Finding mythological monsters in questlines, finding easter eggs etc. I think Oddyssey's world was anything but empty. Sure, the repetitive grinding quests of killing some bandits or wolves didn't appeal, but you can ignore those. One of side-stories like liberating that island from tyranical rule alongside the rebels (one of which was the former princess which I made Kassandra romanc) seriously stick in my mind, even though it was entirely optional content you can just find by exploring.And then there is Athens, which is a map so detailed and big that it could be its own entire game. It's just nice.I just have no such connection to northern Europe and I wouldn't be able to recognize anything there. In that regard I probably can connect to Japan as a map more too.
>>4208545>I just have no such connection to northern Europe and I wouldn't be able to recognize anything there.Well, that's the same argument people who didn't enjoy exploring Odyssey's map make. I'm not an Ancient Greece history buff, so the appeal of going to <historical_POI> just to turn a ? into a different map marker and get some worthless loot wears off quickly.
>>4208542That's a difference in approach I guess. Some people like exploration. It's cool to just row your boat through the Aegean and hear shanties while you go to a distant city and along the way maybe you will fight pirates or find an island you want to check out. Sometimes there will be an interesting side-quest or there will just be loot. And yet other times it might just have a nice view.I get that some people care only about hyper condensed content, but the feeling of actually exploring a real country (even if scaled down) is something you can't get anywhere but these AssCreed RPG titles. It's immersive.There are many mechanics that are too repetitive or get a bit tired after 80 hours of playing the game, sure, but I think there are few ways to not feel that way in any open world game. The skirmishes between Athens and Sparta lose their luster when you overwhelmingly supported one side and yet it still continues, the mercenaries send after Kassandra by the cult eventually reach a level and skill cap, so the challenge goes away unless 3-4 of them attack you at once and of course eventually you will have gotten all the best gear, so you have no incentive left to loot.But I think the progression in the game is actually spread out enough for those to only become issues towards the last stretch of the game where you will either have beaten the story anyway or just explore for the hell of it.
>>4208548I understand that having no connection to a setting severely limtis ones interest. But that's why all that exploration is optional anyway. The main quest will take you to (most) important historical sites and will introduce you to Ancient Greece plenty enough. If you just wanna experience the rollercoaster ride, you can. Nobody is forcing you to explore the entire map.But in a way isn't it interesting to know the rest of the world is around, but you just follow the story of one person in it through the route their life takes? Knowing there is more is not really a downside.
I'll play the new ass Creed as long as I can make the Shinobi girl date women, hope the game isn't just black dude in Asia because I don't like black people unless they're lesbian women
>>4208270Considering the lead writer for Shadows, I'd be seriously worried they are going to push the two leads into a romance, that is if I had any interest to play an Ubislop game in the first place.
>>4208550I find it a downside more often than not, because when I see 150+ map markers and know that only some of them have something meaningful attached to them, I'm less inclined to actually go out and explore instead of looking up a guide than if there were 30-50 markers.
>>4208554I also I'm not excited for this game because that's a possibility, also not excited to checking social media if that happens.
>>4208554Considering Ubisoft demands always online with it you're probably right.
>>4208557What does having to always be online have to do with two leads being romantically involved?
>>4208558Its got to do with the game being Ubislop and why anon isn't interested in it.

>>4208630Look through the thread. The news was posted already.
>>4208630>>4208619https://www.gematsu.com/2024/05/witch-lilies-launches-in-early-access-on-may-24
>>4208554Well if that happens I simply won't buy it and won;'t play it.The deluxe edition buyers will get it few days earlier so everything will be known upon release.I would be surprised if they forced the romance between two protags cause it is completely not needed addition and in none of the games of AC it happened before aside of that retarded DLC for Oddyssey.
>>4208636>except for that retarded DLC in OddysseyThat wasn't romance between two main characters. That was a new side-character. If you think no AC protag was ever forced into a romance you probably didnt play any. Altair, Ezio, the guy from Unity and his chilldhood friend... happens all the time. Kinda goes hand in hand with the whole single bloodline leading up to Desmond thing.If we are just talking the ACs where you can actually pick a love interest, there are only 2, so you can't really pretend like we have a solid rule. Anything can happen in the next one.
>>4208640I didn't play any game where I couldn't play as female MC as AC goes so obviously I didn't know that.
>>4208641>has only played 3.5 games in the entire franchise at most>does no research>makes claims about the entire franchise
>>4208647And nothing of value was lost of not playijg previous AC games.
>>4208658I'm not surprised you didn't understand the point of my post.
>>4208641>I didn't play any game where I couldn't play as female MC as AC >in none of the games of AC it happened beforeAnon...
>/v/ right now is nothing but Assassins' Creed spam and shitposting>the yuri game thread is the sameGrim
>>4208699Wow retard, it's almost like a big game that caters to as many groups as possible is about close to release. You know what's really grim though? That a piece of shit tourist like you is on /u/. Go back to /v/.
>>4208699Other than the discussion of 1000xRESIST you mean?
There's the sum total of all yuri content in Zeta Wolf First Bite. Don't waste your time.
>>4208706I would say you wasted your time because we told you so from the start, but you probably just wanted to play it anyway.
>>4208605Clear Skye Thinking came out. 1000xResist also came out, but idk its relevance myself. Read Only Memories: NEURODIVER came out, and Hella Yuri recommends it with a "Female protagonist, female romance interest"
>>4208706big thibbies
Fatal Twelve was complete shit
>>4208785how spicy of you ma'am
>>4208605Hades 2 came out on early access
>>4208785You are really special and unique anon, good for you.
>>4208786>>4208788I will shitpost this soulless VN any chance I getGenuinely kill yourselves if you recommend this. It's poorly written and has no stakes
>>4208706>First time hearing about this name >Google>It's a prequel for a textbook generic het dating sim...what the fuck were you expecting? Why did you even contemplate the idea of playing this?
>>4208792The dev repeatedly advertised it as a yuri game.https://twitter.com/AniClashStudios/status/1790554580763148720Therefore in case anyone else came across that advertising and thought that it might be worth checking out, I'm reporting that it's not, not even to look for fanservice CGs.
>>4208796>The dev repeatedly advertised it as a yuri game.And you were gullible enough to believe that? Especially given the kind of audiences het dating sims are aimed to?The sad thing is that it won't be the last time you will support het filth
>>4208796This is why you always wait for the Hella Yuri review. The dev IS a faggot, though.
>>4208800Playing Devil's Advocate: most yuri pairings aren't canon on their source works so technically the developer isn't lying: it IS yuri if you use your goggles.
>>4208803Shut the fuck up. Subtext isn't yuri to begin with, but this is anti-subtext you retard. It's just hetshit.
>>4208804So? It doesn't mean you can't ship the girls, which was pretty much the developer's intention and why he classified it as yuri.
>>4208805That's not how it works you piece of shit. You can't just point at a het game where girls lust over boys and say that the yuri fans are supposed to do the work and make a bunch of yuri ships out of hetsluts. Genuinely kill yourself for taking that position. Maybe a double suicide with the dev, to make it more yuri.
>>4208806>You can't just point at a het game where girls lust over boys and say that the yuri fans are supposed to do the work and make a bunch of yuri ships out of hetsluts.Except that's literally how the yuri fandom works; just looking at the catalog we can seen an active Hibike Euphonium thread right now. The developer aimed at creating a spinoff where the girls were in constant contact with each other while avoiding the male MC so yuri fans could ship them.
>>4208813No autismo, get off the board.
>>4208699I bet it's constant >WE WUZover there
>>4208845Yeah
>>4208796what a cunt
>>4208527That's all the ones I've found in-game and all the ones I can find listed anywhere. I thought someone said 6 also but those seem to be all the female options there are. Like, there are at least two female characters that I was almost sure WOULD be romantic options, but they're not, and I'm not entirely sure why.
>>4208938>>4208527Wait, I just read my post back and I listed 6 characters. That's all there are.
>>4208800Didn't know anyone was still brazen enough to yuribait
>>4208988Why wouldn't you? It works too and you don't alienate your het audience.
Will report if anything is /u/nteresting in Lorelei and the Laser Eyes.But it's never a bad time to listen to Sayonara Wild Hearts' soundtrackhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZtqSafbIuQ
>>4208800Hella Yuri is kind of an idiot too. Pic related isn't just "about toxic relationships"; it's literally an anti-lesbian author tract made by people from /v/, similar to Snoot Game. It should be marked as not recommended, not just "informative".
>>4209080>Hella Yuriwho tf is this? First time I'm hearing about this person
>>4209081Just a steam curator that documents gay games.
>>4209081Hella Yuri is the big steam curator for yuriShe runs a group where people tell her how gay stuff is to help her I believe, and has been here before although I'm not sure if she's been around for years
>>4209080It was originally marked as not recommended and some fan of the game came in and argued vociferously about how great it was so they got it changed to a listing that tries to find a balance for "some people like it, some people hate it" The curator doesn't have time to test every game individually so they have to go somewhat off what they're told.
>>4209081>First timein the OP of every thread, anon
>>4209096Then, why even bother being a curator if you're going to fold to external pressure?
>>4209096>some fan of the gameA troll, more like.
>>4209101I don't think you understand how the whole thing works. It's not meant to be a "these are my personal views on how good these games are" it's meant to be a comprehensive list of yuri games on steam.
>>4209102Totally possible but hard to prove. Nobody else cared enough to keep arguing, anyway.
>>4209110But it needs to have some sort of quality check, because apparently anyone can post the most virulent anti-yuri shit and the curator will just let it pass if the poster is loud enough.
>>4209119Well, I guess you can be that quality check
>>4209119Now I'm kind of tempted to see if I can get Zeta Wolf First Bite changed from not recommended to informational by throwing a loud enough tantrum. >>4209120Is there are way to contact the curator? You don't even need to actually read the thing, there are complete youtube playthroughs and if you still doubt the nature of the work you can make a thread on /pol/ or /v/ about lesbians and see posted every "point" Class of 09 made.
>>4209122There's a steam group associated with it that has discussions, I *think* they are fairly activeYou can reach it from the curator's page under the 'about' section
Those billions of yuri games and VNs on Steam are pretty depressing for a couple reasons: 1. There are so so so many yuri games and VNs no one needs to follow the corporate-mandated garbage made by big companies like Ubisoft but people still do it2. There are so so so many yuri games and VNs my plan of making a quick buck with a small lesbian-themed VN went poof
>>4209122>Now I'm kind of tempted to see if I can get Zeta Wolf First Bite changed from not recommended to informational by throwing a loud enough tantrum.You have literally no idea what's in that game other than what the curator told you, which is going to make it hard for you to make a believable case. Are you going to waste money on purchasing bait just to try and prove that an angry 4chan troll can tamper with the system? What the hell would that even accomplish? "Yay, I made things worse for no reason!"
>>4209102If the troll purchased a dozen yuri games and 100%ed them in order to look more credible before attempting to promote one stupid meme game, you have to admire the dedication.
>>4209130You can always watch a youtube playthrough or pirate the thing. >What the hell would that even accomplish? Demonstrating that Hella Yuri isn't worth listening to, forcing the group to engage on actual quality checking.
>>4209131There are lots of people who 100% all the content, trophies and achievements of games they really, really loathe so they can attack and discredit them on the internet. People are that vile and spiteful.
>>4209132Mostly it would demonstrate that you weren't listening to.
>>4209133No there isn't.
>>4209134But the curator would have no way of confirming this, because they have no quality checking.
>>4209135Yes there are. You underestimate how hateful (and how little they value their time) some people are
>>4209132You could just start your own curator if you're that autistic. It'd even be free, and you wouldn't have to be a cunt.
>>4209137No, there definitely is not.
>>4209138Yes I should.I mean, look at pic related; take a guess what's the game's plot twist is, and still it doesn't get a "not recommended".
>>4209139Yes there are. Clearly you don't spend time outside /u/ so you haven't deal with such people. They post their trophies and achievements and how they spent hundreds of hours on something they hated so they could demonstrate that game X sucked. It's depressing but true.
>>4209141Yeah I don't know what kind of ego defense nonsense you've invented for yourself this is but it's blatant bullshit.
>Can't talk about Hades II but anon can seethe about how his het dating sim didn't get reccomended
>>4209156You can discuss Hades 2...we have been even.
>>4209139I spend some time on the Kingmaker steam discussion page just because I’m a big Pathfinder nerd, and there’s been a douchebag there the past few months who does nothing but shit on the game, digging deep into the archives to gravedig negative posts from the past six years just to have more negative topics on the front page.So yeah, I have to agree with the other anon, there really are people who’ll waste their lives just to be mildly petty about shit they don’t like.
>>4209176Yeah, there's a handful of people who are legitimately mentally fucked. Seriously screwed people, but only a handful."lots" of people spending hundreds of hours on something they hate doing just to fuck with what you like though, is what you make up when you need an entire class of people who are worse than even however bad you yourself are, so you're not at the very bottom. And I've learned this from being far too curious about the legitimately mentally fucked people, because every single one of them do it.
>>4209130>"Yay, I made things worse for no reason!"That's been 4chan's stated mission for two decades, nee-san.
>>4209192>is mean girls anti-woman?It was fetch.
>>4209195Stop trying to make fetch a thing, anon.
>>4208940I didnt count the Geisha who fucking dies before you can even romance her. That's not really relevant.
>>4209081Fucking newfag.
>>4209140Hella Yuri is not anti-tranny. Tranny games count as yuri for the list, but USUALLY it's spelled out in the "recommendation". It's actually very weird that it's not spelled out, but I guess in this shitty game it's meant to be a twist. But it does state that it's about gender identity, which is a red flag and should be enough.
>>4209119Hanako usually contacts devs to ask about the yuri content of their game or even gets messages by devs to make their case. Then she also listens to people who played the games to get their perspective, in case she didn't play one herself. Many times she has withheld reviews because the yuri content wasn't clear enough. She isn't just blindly throwing anything on the list.But as was already explained, it's not about quality, just about content. If a lesbian couple exists in a het game then there might be a rewiew saying there is a lesbian side-couple. It's not a yuri game by any means, yet it still gets that Informational.>>4209125https://steamcommunity.com/groups/hellayuriThere are discussion topics, comments etc. Knock yourself out.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2263980/Memories_Millennium_Girl/I vaguely remember this being brought up before, but it was a while ago and I don't think it was even in EA yet. Does anyone know if they added the option to make the sister romance girls since then? Overall this looks like a second-hand Volcano Princess, but I sure as hell need more Volcano Princess.
>>4209247Check the achievements, imouto.There has been an option to marry girls since the launch, and it seems that a few more characters have been added to the pool since then.Can't say anything else. Nobody on /u/ really cared to talk about it and when I tried to test it out a few months ago the game was crashing immediately.
>>4209254It IS in early access after all, so most people won't touch it and crashes are expected. EA is only supposed to be pretty short, that's why I wanted to know. If it has yuri marriages then it's a definite buy for me. Even a second rate VP is better than nothing to me.
>>4209247There's always Long Live the Queen if you're desperate for more raising sims. Though the yuri ends can be difficult to get.
>>4209289No anon, I'm not a /v/tard who asks for any game of a genre in a thread about yuri games. I'm on /u/ because I want /u/ games from that genre. Long Live the Queen is not a yuri game. The scraps it has are not really yuri and it's so minor that I don't care. It's a text blurb at the end of a campaign.What makes Volcano Princess special is that it is more like an in-depth dating sim within a raising sim. And Millenium Girl scratches that same itch from what I've seen. If you actually want something that is vaguely on the level play Cute Bite. The vampire girl raising sim in which all romance endings are exlcusively yuri. It's not a total recommendation, because a lot of endings simply have no romance at all, but it is 100% /u/ and that counts for something.
>>4209295You really should chill.
>>4209296That's probably the dumbest response yet.
>>4209299Even without the reaction image I knew it was you, go figure
>>4209301The reaction image I stole like a dozen other anons? You're too funny.
>>4209295Fair enough. I knew about Cute Bite but haven't played it yet so thanks for the helpful yet needlessly argumentative reminder to get around to playing it at some point.
>>4209167The last time we did, one anon got all up in arms about it. So clearly we can't do so in peace.
>>4209315Hey moron, actually look at the thread before you just straight up lie.
>>4208699Dude I’ve literally been announcing this game’s release for ages
>>4209346Lying about it every thread doesn't count as an announcement.
>>4209349It does if you can see the future.
>>4209144nta, but damn sis, from a scale of 0 to Madoka, how naive are you, that you are unwilling to acknowledge the concept of negative human behaviour that doesn't align with yours? People do people shit. At this point, just looking at this makes me believe you are mentally stuck at 13. Baffling but understandable. 'Tis the season alright.
If you want to play the new AssCreed, wait a month or two. It'll be on discount.
>>4209427>If you want to play the new AssCreed, wait a month or two. It'll be on discount.More likely wait 3 months so they could fix game breaking bugs first which affects initial savegames to not start again like I had a pleasure with Valhalla.
>>4209427Never buy any game at release. Waiting half a year is usually the smartest way to do it. Most patches will be done, the game will potentially go on sale, all the secrets and guides will be found so don't get stuck if you don't have the time.
>>4209427a month or two? isn't it not even out until the end of the year?
>>4209455After release, of course.
>>4209315That anon rages at absolutely anything, pay them no mind really.
>>4209226If Hella Yuri counts transgender as yuri, then it isn't a yuri curator at all.
>>4209584I don't give a shit what you think. As long as she labels things correctly on the review, it makes no difference.
>>4209584You are welcome to make your own curator by your own rules. Keep it up long enough and other people might even follow it.
>>4209592Why mention games with trans characters at all?
>>4209597Stop playing the retard. There is no reason to pretend you live in a bubble. It doesn't give you any /u/ cred, it just makes you sound low IQ.
>>4209599There is no reason to mention games with trans characters in a yuri curator either.
>>4209609>>4209599
>>4209612>Unironically shilling for het with extra steps
>>4209615>>4209599
>>4209612>>4209616>no answerBegone, fiend.
>>4209609You can always try to be a better steam curator if you think you know better. Be the change you want to see. If not, then Hella Yuri is the best we have.
>>4209223I mean I don't disagree with you there, that shouldn't really count, but she IS a romantic interest and you can have a relationship with her. It's pretty cheap of them to count that. One of the male ROs dies too but it's way later in the game, and he's the one who's married to one of the female ROs. I don't know if there was a way for him not to die because I didn't give a shit and he was an asshole anyway.
>>4208506>>4208507Aright I finished 1000xResist.A fantastic and haunting experience that would be an indie darling and breakout narrative hit in a year or month that didn't also just have Hades 2 and Animal Well, but I can't really recommend if you just want to get your yuri fix.I kinda get that they didn't want the salaciousness of lesbian selfcest and later when they start cloning Jiao en mass as a functional worker race and that the head Iris clone keeps a personal Jiao clone for herself to distract from the story they wanted to tell, about generational trauma, the Asian diaspora, the Hong Kong protests(as it relates to Iris's parents' backstory), etc. So any sexual/romantic elements of relationships across the clones isn't given an extraordinary amount of focus. Also it felt like they just randomly threw in the implication that the original Iris was having sex with the head female researcher in the underground research base near the end out of nowhere.But this shit was mesmerizing and every big development kept me wanting to keep going. It definitely feels like a post-Signalis game in the sense that it tries pulling the main menu fakeout on you and then the transition to a semi-new setting is its Rotfront momentEvery actual important decision happens in the very last segment of gameplay where you literally just flip metaphorical switches on and off to decide who lives and dies(represented by lightbulbs going on and off). There are multiple endings per the achievements. The one I got had the semi-immortal clone girls free to reclaim Earth as the last vestige of humanity, with a small epilogue of an Iris and Jiao pair exploring the abandoned home ship now rendered a memorial which is good enough for me. Don't need another Signalis-level weight on the brain again.
>>4209667Is it Ryouma? Because the guy is meant to historically die
>>4209018Probably cause I don't have it in me to use any group as window dressing for my shit gameReally disgusting the more I think about it
>>4209693Sounds crazy in all the best ways. Definitely gunna wishlist, somehow never heard a single thing about this until a few days ago.
>>4209729>Really disgusting the more I think about itThat's capitalism!
>>4209743
Just finished Dreamy PlanetAnd I really really enjoyed it. The writing in it was very dismal and vivid, you can almost feel Haruka's depression and self loathing seep into you. Definitely my favorite Ebi Hime work so far
>>4209728Full disclosure, I haven't finished it yet. But no, I meant Genzui, the nationalist leader guy who's racist as hell. Ryouma's a total bro, and I know he historically dies but he's had so many close calls at this point it would probably feel weird if he actually did. I'm pretty sure I'm near endgame, or in the last chunk.
