Previous thread: >>48064028This thread is for the discussion of untranslated Japanese visual novels.What are you playing? What are you looking forward to? What have you finished?
I am playing waffle's latest kusoge tonight (after work)
Let it be known that kemomimi girls are cute and for mating with human males.
>>48095557Cute
oh lawd
who is best girl of 2024? (2023's was Amane btw)
>>48097048Akane
>>48097048anyone you want anonno point arguing here its not like I can win prize if my girl won
>>48097048who the fuck is Amane?
>>48097167from tenshi souzou I guess

VN's have been dead for years now. Pack it up boys, what are you still doing here?
>>48098494Reading old VNs, obviously.
VNs still mog LNs. Of course, not shitty VNs with six h-scenes but most are not thar bad
>>48095557>What are you looking forward to?巨乳ファンタジー5
>>48098494VNs won't come down until our semi-divine savior Himself comes down. Until that day, it’s never happening
>12 hours into this recording of Otomeri and it's still in the simulationwhoever wrote 8 hours long on vndb is a retard.
>>48098867Have you tried reading faster?
>>48098765Respectable. I personally just read everything I wanted to read and moved on. Only ever reread my favorites nowadays.
>>48098979its a recording of the game on default settings
>>48098494Remember that this medium isn't as dead as anime and manga, so basically is the least worse of the bunch
how's the new navel?
>>48098806I always thought this old dude was the protag and the 家族計画 was fucking the girls he let into his home. Found a pic of the real protag, average young dude, and lost all interest. What's even the point if the old dude doesn't get them?>>48098867Never trust vndb or EGS times. EGS = speedreading nips; time to finish common route + 1 heroine route. vndb = speedreading chinks and N4 skipfags.
>>48099204Nothing is funnier when you look at a time for a nukige on vndb and the person said they skipped H scenes.
>>48099204>time to finish common route + 1 heroine routeThey're just like me..... I guess I am a real Jap now
WTF am I reading (new アトリエかぐや CheshireCat)
>>48099312how do I enroll
>>48099227Reviews are also funny. One guy gave Haison Shoujo a 10 and wrote that he only read the Kagome route because Kagome best girl. I think he also said he skipped the H. There was also recently a retard on vndb "reviewing" the first tMarina NTRge. Said it was not a story game and the story parts only took 30 minutes to read. He didn't understand why MC was a cuck which was explained in the first 10 minutes. Guy wrote that he also skipped the H. Then said he liked the H from the other guy's perspective. I'm 99% sure that was from Marina's POV not the guy's. At the end the guy said that the H overall is decent despite earlier saying he skipped it. Huge retard who can't pay attention then posts his thoughts as if they matter. I'd be ashamed of myself if I posted crap like that.>>48099261Forgot to say but EGS also allows times that are "time of dropping", so you see a 50 hour game have a few times of 2 hours. I think EGS weighs those slightly better than vndb where a single vote can ruin the average.
Where can I find a working No DVD patch for 魔王と踊れ!2 change of the world? Tried patching it myself with alpharomdie and sigluspatcher but neither worked, still asks for the disc even with the image mounted.
>>480995622dfan has one. Try it.
>>48099227Me when reading moenukige
>>48095557Hello, I trying to find Agga Ruta for windows 95/98 VN. I wish to find more stuff about Tenchi Universe, and Agga Ruta is a rather obscure entry there. I tried to find it in nyaa and anime-share, and in nyaa I just can't find there and in anime-share links are broken. Anime-share has tons of links for older VNs that just don't work anymore too. Do anons know somewhere which I can look after it? Does anyone here use Perfect Dark here?
>>48099667Thanks, got it.
>CG has "floating dick and nutsack">looks more like two balls and one is deflowering herOMG
>>48099800https://archive.org/details/space-ofera-agga-ruter-the-terrible-space-witchIt's rather surprising but archive.org often enough somehow has old shit like this. I don't know if it's safe or working though.
>>48099928Thanks, anon. That is good enough for me.
That's Souten Koihime finished.The whole thing was pretty predictable and formulaic - you've seen every single heroine archetype before and you can probably guess how most of the plot goes - but it's all done quite well. Being the shortest Koihime with the smallest cast works in its favor in some areas, as it means there's far fewer parts where there's absolutely nothing going on and it's focusing on girls you don't care about, and every girl gets to be relevant and important and get comedy/romance/action scenes all the way to the end (while in other Koihime games they'd just drop off the face of the earth wnen their arc was done). However, it also meant the whole VN felt a little budget. The big epic China spanning war felt rather small scale, and the fact that there was only one antagonist character with no sub-villains or anything meant that the vast majority of the last chapter is kinda meaningless fights against generic nameless grunts. And there were a few unvoiced characters that REALLY should've been voiced.Just to be clear, I really liked it quite a bit. I think the best analogy for Souten Koihime is that there's a new battle shonen that's just released and getting popular so you decide to check it out and realize you've already seen all the characters and can predict every fight because it's just executing the formula, but it's executing the formula well. There's a lot of great moments in there.I'm a bit worried I've just read a preview release and in 2-3 years there'll be a revised version that's much longer with more heroines, similar to Sengoku vs Sengoku X, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see.If you want to read a fun pseudohistorical harem comedy romance action game, it's the best new release in a while. Check it out if you haven't.
>>48096484oh no it's us...
>>48097924what's the context lol
>>48100312>I'm a bit worried I've just read a preview release and in 2-3 years there'll be a revised version that's much longer with more heroines, similar to Sengoku vs Sengoku X, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see.This is the part that makes me hesitate to read it now.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOYOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO GIVE HIM EYESAIEEEEEHHHHHHHHH
>>48100459Do people actually sit and play smartphone games together like this?
>>48100459
My PC just crashed when an ED video came on and I clicked. Rarely the PC freezes up for a couple minutes but comes back. This time it didn't. I turned my screen off and back on to see if the monitor was fucked but it wasn't. Instead all it showed was green, so the GPU. I restarted the PC and it works again but I'm worried. At the end of my NEET life I just want to read a few more eroge. It's not like they are intense on the hardware...
>>48100502sorry bro looks like your PC is suffering from ED
>Steins;Gate gets remade>This time Akiba is drawn full of foreigners, kebab stands, and prostitutes
>>48100695Bro I've been to akiba, you can't get a decent kebab anywhere.
>>48100716Decent kebab? Maybe. But I was there on Sunday (Go at least every month) and there was a sign for a kebab shop in the middle of the street in front of the Denkigai-guchi. Common sight.
>>48100813I haven't been since covid, it can't have changed that much, can it?
>>48100695This is shitposting but I'll be really disappointed if they update Steins;gate in the reboot. I actually really like how it unintentionally became a period piece.
>>48100818Dude? Gechu and Mister Donut (Japan's oldest) just closed this month
>>48100457>This is the part that makes me hesitate to read it now.They kinda persona'd themselves by releasing significantly upgraded versions of their VNs a few years later so now I can totally understand being hesitant to start it. The thing is, it's a totally complete story and a perfectly good VN, it's not like it's clearly missing spots to be filled in. But you can never know. I guess wait a year and if nothing happens try it? Or you can just read both I guess, I liked it enough that if they do rerelease it I'll reread the new version.
>>48100488The reek of NTR is just unbelievable in this image.
>>48100900Yes, but it looks like the hot charao is ntr-ing mc-kun away from his girlfriend.
>>48100849If only Abe were here
>>48100941Not looking good, the LDP just lost lower house majority
>>48100941I don't think he had mister donut related policies.
>>48100900He actually kills himself because he loves his sister who raped him so you're half right.
>>48100970That's good actually. The fuckers were in a coalition with a cult of religious extremists who want to ban sexual depections in manga, anime, and of course eroge. The industry is dealing with a lot as is, the last thing it needs is some conservatives obsessed with regulating porn and morality.
>>48099129the story is okayish but its vanilla shit so I skipped alot the h-scene is okayish but not enough for me to nuki nuki yea that's my personal opinion so if you are offended I am sorry
>>48100695They’re gonna retcon Mayuri and Feris into 立ちんぼ for realism.
>>48101161How’s the prose?
>>48100324
>>48101164my japanese is not n3 level so don't ask me lols
>>48101098sounds like I need to play that game
22 hours in recording Otomeri and it's still going

>>48101188What did you mean by that?
>>48100472gacha games are meant to be played with other people.
>>48101259this is the funniest post Ive read today
I think I've seen almost this exact gag for maybe 15 years.

Aokana 10th anniversary edition>4K>2 more hscenes for Misaki in the base game >2 more hscenes in Extra 1>2 more hscenes in Extra 2https://sprite.net/aokana/10thanniversary/boxlike it?
>>48101842Eh, too busy choosing a component or SCART cable for my PS2 to care.
>>48101842what about aokana 2
>>48101842no...
>>48101842so this is the power of all ages no romance yurige
>>48101842Dead medium
>>48101842Misaki is a garbage mary sue so wont be reading this.
>>48101842Give me a reason to care one more time about aokana. I read aokana again in 2022 because of Extra 2 and the promise of more games coming out in 2023 and that turned out to be a lie. So give me a reason to care again.
>>48101842wow they are squeezing this particular ip dry like no tomorrow huh, just produce a new h-game, oops I forgot they are ALL AGE game producer now lmao.
>>48102180but we aren't talking about asuka
>>48102180Totally agree. Felt very manufactured to appeal to otaku to me, without any genuine charm. It was good at being manufactured though

>>48095557What are you reading this halloween sirs?
>>48104478fortune arterial. I just got a 'normal' end last night despite always choosing scenes for the heroine I was pursuing. my shock was immense
Yuichan?
For Tenshin Ranman is it easy to get all the all-ages version's exclusive content after finishing the 18+ release without having to reread what I've already read?I know there's a new character, does she appear in the common route? If so should I read the all-ages common route then jump to the 18+ version, and back again for the all-ages route?I wish they'd just make a version that contains everything, when I was playing Noratoto I discovered after I beat it that there were a bunch of CGs that I missed from the all-ages version which miffed me a bit.
>>48104478reread Saya no Uta of course
>>48104200>>48104165pulling out your dick is still the most powerful move
>>48100312>Just to be clear, I really liked it quite a bit.

There's a lot of great moments in there.That's convincing enough for me to add it to the backlog
30 hours 45 minutes for an auto playthrough of Otomeri. Ban all EOP retards on vndb for putting single digit hour reviews.
they just read 4 times faster bro
>>48105637Relevant
>>48105637>autoWho cares?
>>48105637Otomeri? What game do you mean? New mignon game?
Amatsutsumi moment
>>48105940Is this Moon Ghost? That's hilarious if mikage pulled the exact same shit, what a hack.
>>48105948Yes, but it wasn't that important to story. Well, maybe a little bit
>>48105940Untranslatablekino
>>48105966he stole this joke from avengers infinity war
>>48105976I remember checking the Eng version of Amatsutsumi to see what they did and they TLed it as "leave" and "live" which is about as close as you can get I guess.
>>48105987The characters drop movie references all the time
>>48105993Actually clever, i yield.
>>48105940More like イきなさい haha
Currently playing Akeiro before Kimaten 2 released. The first part is kinda boring imo, is it really good just like everyone sayin ?
>>48101842This has to be a quick we need money cash grab. I bet the new h-scenes are just ported from the gacha.
So how's purplesoft's experiment with publishing smaller games working out? Is Moon Ghost and Criminal Border worth it?
>>48107950>Criminal BorderYes.

>>48108051>250 IQ genius gets trolled by 1/10 baitsasuga
>>48108059It keeps happening. The guy seems to have no filter for recognizing obvious bait. He keeps falling for it and getting upset on twitter. I guess he's like a 60 year old japanese guy, it makes sense.
>>48108066>The guy seems to have no filter for recognizing obvious bait. He keeps falling for it and getting upset on twitter.I believe we call that autism
>>48105940stupid dajare moment omg
>>48108066Still better than Maeda
>>48108158That's not fucking hard, Maeda is literal bottom of the barrel when it comes to how to use the internet without getting upset.
>>48108161to be fair, I'd be forever mentally damaged too if I had internet trolls start flaming me for having gotten a heart transplant every time I release something shitty
@fatretard099900 thinks I'm a bad writer? Guess I've got to kill myself
>>48108051lol
>>48108182At this point he has to know that his writing style only works in 50 hour VNs and just falls apart completely in 12 episode anime, right? He can't seriously release these things and expect people to like them.
>>48108192You think maybe he's MTL-ing so the tone doesn't come across right? It's the most harmless fucking non-joke in the world.
>>48108059>>48108066>trolling>baitNah, just typical westoid zoomers not understanding how to be respectful on the internet. Probably pirate all their VNs too assuming they even play them.
>>48108194I hope HBR's success will keep his hands tied to that project so he won't release any more worthless original anime.
>>48108203>typical westoid zoomers not understanding how to be respectful on the internetWho goes online to be respectful and proper? Especially twitter
>>48108194Kamisama was rewritten like 8 times (actual number, can't find the interview anymore) specifically because Maeda took the critism of his other anime scrips very seriously and got some anime writer/director/producer the power of final approval. It took 8 tries before it was given.
>>48108233That actually makes it so much worse, holy shit.
>>48108232It’s one thing to act that way on places like 4chan or in private communities, but doing it on twitter, knowing that the person in question not only is active on there but also likes interacting with fans (including non-jap ones) is just monkey-tier behavior.
>>48108250Yes, yes, people on the internet are assholes and do not act inappropriately. The thing is, you kind of have to learn how to deal with that at some point, because they're not gonna change. I guess I'm kinda victim blaming by saying sca-ji needs to dress less slutty so he doesn't get raped so often (metaphorically), but seriously, at some point you'd think he'd learn.
>>48108192U HAVE TO APOLOGIZE
>>48108250internet is not REALITY bro I don't act like monkey online and I don't give a fuck about trolls on the internet because I know they are not real and they can't harm me. Do you know most of the shitposting on twitter is generated by AI/bot account?
>>48108255Well, I for one don’t think a middle aged jap has any obligation to learn how to deal with “post-ironic” zoomer humor or whatever they call it, and I’m not surprised when he’s unamused by shitposting that basically consists of making up shit about his and other people’s work (but only ironically heh wink nudge us shitposters amirite)Obviously trolling will never cease to exist, doesn’t mean you can’t point out retarded behavior when you see it.
>>48108281>a middle aged jap has any obligation to learn how to deal with “post-ironic” zoomer humor or whatever they call it,If you want to use websites that have zoomers on them, then yeah, he kinda does have an obligation.
I actually laughed when I saw the chapter title.
>>48108430Do you really hate Nishimata's 00s art so much that you'd play a version with worse voice actors over the original?
>>48108430this still doesnt have a kagura route right, what a waste
>>48108432I already finished it>>48108437It's the same script as the original.
>>48108389wtf I love AI now

>>48108059The limit of his language is the limit of his world.
>>48108201>he's MTL-ingAh, a classic: the artist-philosopher, once again, turning the whole machine upside down. Almost like he’s reminding us it’s possible to think and create differently...
>>48109963
>>48110652>Are we superior to Sca-DI because he can't understand Wittgenstein in the native language and we can understand Japanese?You're almost there, but also very far. Wittgenstein, the favorite philosopher of our favorite philosopher, did write his work originally in German. SCA-Ji, bless his ornery little heart, must have thought that English was frankly beneath him, justifiably, so he ignored it and went directly for German and French. And if you look at the names of his visual novels, he’s not exactly hiding his lanes. The leap to English simply never happened, you see
>>48110688Actually my favorite philosopher is Camus
>>48110715>nothing has meaning after all but we must be happy. A truly Scajian message.
>>48108051I almost want to make a xitter account to bait him. Do you think he will reply to a new account?
>>48110886If you crossdress as a futa and post a picture of you wearing sakuuta school uniform I think he would reply and follow
>>48110715
>>48111034Speaking of which, what is that Shimesaba nigga up to these days?
>>48110886Can you send him this? I want to see what his reaction would be like.

Are there any other writers like lucle or niijima?

>>48111418>>48111840why do they care about their chinese audience so much?
>>48111912maybe because they consist half of their revenue
Anyone know how to apply itsusora patch 2.0?It says that the game is not installed when i try to run it
>>48111919they are like 4/5 actually
>>48111961Ok seems like reinstalling it and launching the setup through locale emulator fixed it
>>48112050Chinese factory workers that accidentally happened to be born with a soul are relying on visual novels to keep their souls fed. They are drawing power from our medium to keep going on. I'm crying, assemblylinesisters, I'm crying.
>>48112065no need to write like a retard my friend but yeah chinese keep most of the japanese industry alive today
Another holiday passed. How many more to go?
>>48111891Lucle is dead now and Nijima sucks
>>48112550Niijima is my favorite writer
>>48112592Let me guess, you love Hatsusaku. Okay I give you that. But what else of his did you like?

>>48113838I look forward to the board theme changing
scaji always tweets about how he respects eroge culture and history a lot but what has he actually done for eroge history? has he written any blogposts or anything like katan?
>>48112550>Lucle is dead nowHe just released a game on Steam.
>>48114430write some of the worst eroge in history
looks like chinks are very mad at otomeki lmao
>>48115032guess I need to buy it
>>48115032Does it actually mention China at all, or just for the feminist elements?
>>48115032I feel like I'm being baited herebut what the fuck is there to get mad at in Otomeki?>>48085872I have no idea how Fukuoka is okay with this, or Sony
>>48115106>but what the fuck is there to get mad at in Otomeki?I think people who don't actually read it will get upset at the feminism stuff. But honestly despite all the setting being about men vs women, and them talking about feminism and how men are inferior blah blah blah, the actual plot and themes are mostly>freedom of expression good>discrimination badit's just henpri/nukitashi
>>48115118I was thinking of 図書館戦争 during the first half of the game
>>48115118So a kusoge?
>>48115118yawnAnother pretentious ass bullshit.
>>48115662It's kind of insane to see someone describe a VN as having the same morals as an episode of barney the dinosaur or teletubbies and describe it as 'pretentious'.Like holy shit dude.
>>48115675I would say more like Mr. Rodgers, I don't remember teletubbies having any sort of message about creative freedom or anything like that, but it's been a really long time so I don't know
>>48115118>it's just henpri/nukitashibut with good art
>>48115118Disgusting
