Previous thread: >>48417118This thread is for the discussion of untranslated Japanese visual novels.What are you playing? What are you looking forward to? What have you finished?
>>48451062>Learning a language for something MTL can do more than good enough.How do you justify this waste of time?
Jop bros, we're dying...
>お兄ちゃんべったりの義理の妹Damn, my interest in the new Marmalade game just dropped by 50%. Glad they at least mentioned it in the bugbug article, since surprise NBR is the worst.
>>48451062FUCK. I'm looking for a game that has these stuff:-male MC-multiple female-A TRAP.-MULTIPLE orgies, NOT just one at the end of the game, with the trap who fucks the girl too. why the FUCK is that last part nearly impossible to find? the closest one for what I want is メるヘン荘～ちょっぴり残念な娘達とメルヘンドッキングな雑居生活～and even that is a stretch because it has just one final orgy. how? the VN scenes serves literally every fetish imaginable. why can I find only two, maybe 3 novels that gives me what I want? fucking why?
>>48451130The multiple orgy part + requiring the trap to actually fuck someone else and not solely be on the receiving end is what's killing you here unfortunately. If you drop those requirements, there's at least a few games.
>>48451130>why the FUCK is that last part nearly impossible to find?Because the vast majority of people would consider it NTR, and most people hate NTR.
>>48451145>requiring the trap to actually fuck someone else and not solely be on the receiving end is what's killing you here unfortunately.I know... and I don't get it. Why, Japan? you serve every fetish. Anyway, can you recommend me a game with at least more than one orgy? I'm sick of the unlockable orgy at the end, it's so tiresome.
>>48451152how. how is t hat NTR when you fuck the trap too.
>>48451130>Polygamy/HaremsDisgusting, absolutely.
>>48451154It's probably not what you're looking for but https://vndb.org/v7742 technically meets most of your list. The side girl characters are sexually involved in one of the routes and there's a handful of 3P scenes.
We know what the best hair color is, but what's the worst one?
>>48451275Red or Pink, they're usually very aggressive, annoying and slutty. I despise heroines who force themselves on the MC, and they are usually red or pink.
>>48451163Most people consider the penis of any character besides the protagonist entering a heroine to be NTR regardless of context. In this case it would be netorase, not netorare, but both are subgenres of NTR.
>>48451290Any otaku pink haired heroines?
>>48451275>We know what the best hair color iswe do?
Good to see Celenaria continuing early Liar-Soft's trend of truly awful shoehorned-in gameplay. I've already seen every original event on this map, but I have to visit every square (while managing fuel) in order to get an extra CG at the end.
>>48451458Shara in Gangsta Republica, however I wouldn't recommend the VN for her, she cucks herself and you fuck a different heroine before her.
>>48451468Can't you feel the soul?
>>48451512Apparently there's a NG+ option that makes it far easier, but I'm too stubborn and want to do it in one run. As far as I can tell the only way to hit the far-off tiles is to just go for it and intentionally run out of fuel. Luckily the buy low sell high system is easy to cheese.
Anons any nukige with twins to mess with? I read a manga recently where the main love interest is a pair of flat twins and I am craving it now
>>48451569flat twins only?
>>48451065>for something MTL can do more than good enough.hahahahahahahaha
>>48451065Not only MTL is garbage, it's actively devolving for whatever fucking reason.These days it's worse than it was in the 90s.
>>48451766I can make an exception for my twins craving, anything goes
>>48452100>>48452115imagine falling for that.

I hate being that newfag, but is there any dungeon crawler VN eroge with sex that lets you pick the girls you like?Alchemy meister is not enough, I want something explicitly on a military academy setting.Honestly it doesn't even have to be a DRPG, I just want something turn based that isn't goddamn tactics grid shit, but at this point I would even take that if it's the right setting.
>>48453464https://vndb.org/g274
>>48453501>Even when adding the sexual content tag there's still 129 results.What the fuck? I expected like, one, at best, and that was being extremely optimistic.Is this fucking real?
>>48453560For some reason, there are a bazillion erotic games made with rpgmaker. God knows why.
>>48453566RPGM can do DRPGs? That's unironically news to me.I don't even care about muh RPGM bad, I will take anything I can get, I don't fucking care.
>>48451077>"no EROGE ISN'T DYING!! stop being sad about it">thread dies and no one makes a new one for a while

Why does eroge generally all come out on the same day each month?
>>48453710>he's not part of the groupbro?...
>>48453710It's the last friday of each month, which usually lines up with pay day (25th in most japanese workplaces)

I love the 3P scenes in Kinkoi. What are other VNs with good 3P scenes/3P routes that aren't nukige?
>>48453790ambitious mission
Aquaplus guitars are what the real pros use.
>>48451569Do they have to be identical?
>>48451569Are you talking about that manga where one of the twins is a male?
>>48453792>ambitious missionFactually untrue. I played the game. There are 0 3p scenes there. Maybe in the fandisk?
>>48454186>>48454186https://exhentai.org/s/bc72d4215c/2230428-121Eh?
>>48454186>There are 0 3p scenes thereThen you missed them. If I remember correctly before the last h-scene of each route there was an unlockable choice that led to a 3P scene.
>>48453790人間デブリ
>>48454261>cuckgeWestoidbro…
>>48454247They were unlockable? No wonder I missed them. Kinkoi had them by default. Was there an oyakodon scene?
>>48454477>Kinkoi had them by defaultno? reina route started with 3p, but in other routes you were supposed to make correct choice in order to see h-hsene
>>48454477>Was there an oyakodon scene?Yeah, it was pretty funny too.
>>48454480>no?Sure? In Sylvie's route you can still fuck the loli. The only thing that changes is that she calls you oniichan. And in the knight's route the hot anal threesome is by default isn't it? I didn't follow a guide>>48454496Damn. The ninja mom was really hot. I need to instal the game again.
speaking of saga planets, can we expect a release in 2025?
Won't read new saga planets unless it's written by Sakaki Kasa
>>48451569I loved the twins in sis camp, even started camping after reading it.

>>48456815pretty sure lining up products with payday is like, standard practice everywhere
>>48456815I mean it's not more sad than AAA game studios waiting for november/december to release their games because of christmas.

>>48451468I just cheat engined the fuel and money and it was comfy after that.
>browse https://www.uzuki.ac/ years ago because I'm interested in everything kakyuusei 2>find out low res magazine scan of Tamaki that have different hair compared to the VN>can't find higher resolution of the pic or any info about it, thought the design looks different was just because the low res pic>years later stumbled upon this on random nip twitterSo the design do looks different. Neat.
>>48458630but thats CHEATING
>>48459237>原田 宇陀児Oh that's right. The scenario writer from the original White Album was supposed to work on this. Heard he dropped out mid production to finish publishing his own novel or something.I've always wondered who the fuck Morning Musuko is.
Vocalists are always the biggest divas of the band
>>48458630I should've done that, luckily as I said the trading was very poorly though out; blue town here sells 虫細工 and green buys it high, so after a few minutes of fully loading the ship and mindlessly going back and forth, it should be smooth sailing from here on out.
>>48459936Kakyuusei 2 is probably a mix of multiple writers, but they just credited it as a dick pun.
>>48456647what is the difference between the original CD release and the current one? i mean muv luv is pretty accessible, it's got a steam release.
>>48460357Off the top of my head, 4:3, static sprites, and nipples on the suits.
wagies haha-hah-ha-h, a-am I right?
>>48460054>buy low sell highDidn't know it was a full on business-ge
>>48451083Giri niggers need to fucking HANG, I'm sick of this bullshit. It's not even like they can get in trouble for making her your real imouto, ALL the fucking cool kids do it and they don't get hit by any repercussions.
After years of putting it off, I'm finally going to actually play through the Rance games. I remember seeing people talk about them and say a couple of them are unplayable without cheat engine, but I don't remember which. Which is it? Also, if I'm doing the whole series, do I read Kikuchou?
>>48460866>>48458630>cheat engineDo you have no samurai sense of honor?
https://x.com/Syroh_Flatpaddy/status/1867849869848985762rip
>>48461108wow that's sad
>>48460357Sprites don't blink or lip-synch, and it's in the original 4:3 aspect ratio which means CGs aren't cropped. IIRC some CGs like Sumika's pantyshot got censored in a few later releases, but I don't know which ones are censored and which aren't since I never played those versions. But the biggest reason I want to replay the original release of Muv-Luv is this absolute banger of a BGM:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7Rw66NqUAADue to plagiarizing Ricky Martin, it got replaced in later releases by this track, which is pretty cool but doesn't really have the same crazy and comical vibe:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jbu2oFW5o2Y
>>48460866>couple of them are unplayable without cheat engineQuest is very grindy, but saying it's unbeatable without cheat engine is a stretch. Just enable TADA easy mode. The others can be beaten by playing normally.>Also, if I'm doing the whole series, do I read Kikuchou?It’s non-canon, but it’s interesting for its historical value as one of the most ambitious games ever created. You can see how later games use the broader plot points and subplots of KR, but they’re somewhat expanded upon into their own thing.Just bear in mind that Kichikuou tone is completely different from the rest of the series.
>>48460866None of them “require” cheating unless you’re a brainfead zoomer. And yes, play Kichikuou between 4.2 and 5D.
>>48461108He was so hyped and ready for comiket too...
>>48459936>I've always wondered who the fuck Morning Musuko is.I wonder if any writer brave enough to take blame for Tamaki's retarded events.
>>48461214>that pantyshotI thought this was a serious vn?
>>48461410Muv-luv extra is a comedy-romance, it's a time capsule of what early 2000s romcom anime was.
I was so focused on their faces that I hadn't even realized that there was a panty shot while reading it.
I hate pointless fan-service in eroge so much
>>48461661Erectiledysfunctionbro...
>>48459936Was he, now? He was supposed to write Tasogare, but had to stop. Wikipedia says "企画を放棄せざるをえない状況に追い込まれ退社を余儀なくされた" which I always thought sounded ominous.And then earlier this year someone tweeted that it means he got bedridden and couldn't work at all.
>>48461661>fanservice in eroge>pointless?????????
>>48461661I want what you're smoking anon to be that braindead.>>48457039Kinda? It basically Etna with dick. The hot flatness reminds me of Disgaea hot flatness.Speaking of it, any anons know there is a game where: >male MC, not an effeminate pussy forced to crossdress for all-girl school and shiet nor a shota. >there are both girls and shotas/traps(plural instead of common singular) >both strictly for (you), >no Hard yuri, only for playful in threesomes at most>especially no traps/shotas getting pussy(cringe) and they really just want (you)r dick only, even in threesome with a girl.Do such game exist, anon?
>>48461842>>48461849>>48461718Nothing? Do you guys actually jerking off to pantieshots or something? Sounds like a form of retardation
>>48456310Does it have more stuff than ggn?
>>48461661just play all ages then? problem solved? all ages are the best visual novels anyway
>>48462558But I want to see h-scenes, bwo?
>>48462562I hate to break to you but watch flesh porn, they don't have fanservice and usually go straight for sex.Don't know why u don't like fanservice bwo. It's like prelude to foreplay.
>>48462772>but watch flesh porn,???3dpd is fucking disgusting and I want to see both pron and h-scenes bwo?>It's like prelude to foreplay.Not really bwo? It happens in the middle of nowhere, adds nothing and makes no sense most of the time.
>>48462562>>48462803You sound positively retarded.
>>48462840???????
>>48461661is this bait?
>>48461661I agree to a certain extent. Like if it's supposed to be an emotional scene and the camera is on the ground looking up the girl's skirt with her panties in full view it can detract from the scene quite a lot.
>>48451065I would like to see one person who knows the language to a fluent degree, unironically share this same opinion. Seriously, I wonder the perspective.
>>48463271What do you mean? Pantsu are quite emotional. If you love the heroine you will love her pantsu too.
>>48460588The business side sucks but the option to eat in every town is great, seeing all the local delicacies and experiencing the various species' relations through delivery missions really fleshes the world out.
>>48463307There's no perspective, it's a shitpost.
>>48463492I mean in scenes like where the heroine's parents died or something like that.
>>48463973Eh, if the girl wears skirt and the angle show her pantsu naturally it would be weird to censor it. You just automatically connect pantsu with nonseriousness and dirtiness when there is no need to. Like I said pantsu is pantsu and they are a sacred part of the heroine.
>>48462027>literally all fanservice needs to be full blown sex all the timeironyweeb bro...
>>48464091I'm saying the angle wouldn't need to be low in those scenes.
>>48464123Sometimes the best angle for a CG just includes the heroine's pantsu. Their uniform's skirt is quite short after all. If anything it's a wonder not every single CG is a pantyshot.
heh
>>48464523I'm surprised the Japanese have even heard of that
>>48464523
>>48464523That's pretty funny
>>48460499back to work anon!
>finally got new headphones>characters who's voices that were previously too high and were literally painful to listen to sound bearable what the fuck

>>48466039no, I love isekai, but this one is actual slop among isekais, it doesnt have enough ecchi
>>48461410>serious vnMangas, especially dark ones like JJK are more serious than VNs because they allow you to grow as a reader. They trust your intelligence to see the deconstruction of tropes that they're doing. VNs are tropey fan service at best.
>>48466051>slopSorry then, but this is ironyweeb lingo.
ok ok but what about a VN, specially nukige, where you can get the way younger loli imouto while the older one is aware of it

>>48465992She is a good girl, not for rapes.
>>48464123It still can be low, just dont show the panties since its supposed to be a serious moment
>>48466394Meh I feel like that CG would have worked better from a higher angle. Is the MC supposed to be lying on the floor looking up her skirt? What's she looking at?
>>48466411It's justified in that CG though, because the character is looking down and you want the camera to focus on her face

>>48475033It is and I doubt things will get that bad. There are more lucrative mediums for them to infest and I don't think the average vtumor fan cares for eroge anyway.
>>48475033There are already multiple VNs with vtuber singers, VAs and based on vtubers or with vtuber heroines, it didn't change anything.
>>48474767There are many new heroines with vtumor tier designs already, also vtumors it's the least of this medium future problems wherr developers need to keep american sensibilities when making eroge so they won't get rejected from steamIt's over
Man, this trope feels so good... the simple fact that she's wearing a cute pink bra is heartwarming.
>>48474767>>48475033Vtubers have been a regular and recurring part of the medium for like five years now, we get half a dozen or so vtuber heroines a year. Honestly they're just replacing idol heroines, I don't see much of a difference.
>>48475440I meant more of their "culture" and what they bring along with themselves. If it's self contained it will die out when the fad dies down but if they try to change the culture it will be bad

This thread is for the discussion of untranslated Japanese visual novels.What are you playing? What are you looking forward to? What have you finished?
>>48475562https://vndb.org/v36629waiting for JP UN-TL.
>>48475562I just finished Lip Lipples. It was pretty good, but it felt like it wanted to be a serious dramatic nakige but couldn't quite commit. So they have the very serious and dramatic twist, and then it gets resolved and fixed shockingly quickly and the rest of the route is DID comedy. Worth a read, the girls are cute. They tease that it might be the start of a series at the end, and I hope they deliver.

>>48475562>What are you looking forward to?What are the big 2025 games besides KF5? That's the only one I'm looking forward to.Don't say Avesta, it's not real.
>>48475562黒白のアヴェスター
>>48475562Avesta
>>48475562Finished Memories off 2nd a few days ago and I started the 3rd game today. My favorite route in 2nd was Tsubame's and favorite heroine was Hotaru. I've seen the 3rd game has some mixed opinions but I don't intend on skipping around in the series, so I'll continue to read every game in order.
>>48475716>so I'll continue to read every game in order.I feel that's the most respectful way to the makers. I always read and watch in the order of release.
>>48475734The most respectful way is to buy your VNs and not be a pirateoid.
>>48456310I thought this was it, when I opened 2003/07 and saw 吸血姫夕維～千夜抄～ (缺少) I thought my time had finally come, but it ends in .txt and seems to just be a placeholder. Pain.
>>48475716Cool. I wonder where you read these games? I'm considering on buying the entire series on the next steam sale.
>>48476135I got the first two back in January when they released the series on steam.

Vtubers in VNs has been happening for a long time now https://vndb.org/v29902Not to mention all of the OPs and EDs they sing.
>>4847487618+ or all ages?
>>48474876Jesus, why is there so many remasters lately, have VN creators lost all creativity?
>>48475716Did you read 1st game? Which heroine was your favourite?
>>48477268At least this one has new routes which makes it better than Sorechiru/ONE/upcoming ToHeart remake.If we entered remake era, I would at least want new content, not just new coat of paint over 20-25 years old text.
>>48477310It's funny to me how VN appreciators get the exact kinds of remasters that Videogame enjoyers wish they could have and vice versa. Just a plain and simple graphical remaster with no changes beyond that whatsoever.
>>48477310If you want new content for old VNs just read the event stories for all of those collabs in DMM porn gacha!
>>48477268Just like the gaming industry this medium is dying. I used to think it was zoomers who are too retarded to play old stuff because it looks old but the fact this is also happening in this medium and its working means there is something else going on.
>>48477438The samefaced, low-detail, modern aesthetic in new VN remasters really makes it clear it's a low effort soulless cash grab. >>48474876 They all have the same exact soulless dead eyed smile, the 1st and 4th heroines are almost identical in appearance. Black hair is the only one with any kind of life to her.
cant wait to do her route next month since this month's busy.
>>48477438>>48448175
>>48477519I don't know why she's not a heroine in the main game to begin with.
>>48477553Imagine actually defending rereleasing old shit because the medium is in such a bad state that actually creating something new could kill your company if it ends up not selling.
>>48477640>the medium>rereleasingI didn't know mediums were releasing games?
>>48477438Because vndb said so amirite>>48441912
>>48477661What VN has released in the 2020s on same level as SubaHibi? Yeah, thought so. This medium is clearly dying and we have to emphasize supporting authors for that
>>48477680https://vndb.org/v28806https://vndb.org/v20431
>>48477690Those are watered down interpretations that scaji made out of the compassion of his heart to make subahibi more accessible to the masses
>>48477553funny to bring up vtubers now, not only the post-covid bubble is bursting even there, blackrock is doing a hostile takeover on holoshit and their talent keeps leaving, and niji keeps constantly shooting itself in the foot but that's nothing new
>>48477640>kill your company if it ends up not selling.as opposed to *** your company if it ends up not selling? fill in the blanks to make sense.
Grisaia complete box got uploaded.Worth getting into the series?
>the medium having such a rich history that it can publish remakes of old titles to satisfy old fans and gain new fans is bad because>because it just IS okay?!
>>48477728>D-doesn't c-count.Lol.Lmao even.
>>48478014>Lol.>Lmao even.Why is this popping up lately? Some YouTube meme? I see it rarely here but other boards are literally unusable.
>>48478041redditoid speak.
>>48478001I'll bait. It's bad because it shows that industry can't stand on its own, without relying on nostalgia faggotry from 90s-00s. If things were good we would have every company creating brand new titles. If they're not doing that, that means:-new titles don't sell well-they can't gather new talents(new writers, artists, etc.) to make new products, which means eroge industry isn't attracting new young writers-they can't even gather old talents to do something new, because cost of making new game with acclaimed writers had become too expensive, etc. etc.All of this is bad if you care about future if this medium.
because it exists in a vacuum outside of the larger economy am I right fellow VNers
>>48477438>this medium is dyingOkay, then switch to some other not dying medium and leave us alone.
>>this medium is dying
>>48478001More like they are so creatively bankrupt its easier to stagnate and make the same old shit again than actually put the effort to make something new
>>48478349So true. Well the medium was escapist slop anyways, I prefer mangas that explore new territory and challenge tired conventions.
>>48475562the strategy part in Aselia Special edition is a bit fucky for me, I can't select units with a left click but by hovering over them and pressing enter or 1. It works that way but I have no idea what's happening on my end.
Insistent girls are cute.
I'm reading Geminism, but what the hell is the ガマシ in 「今宵の仕會わせガマシに非ず」 supposed to be? I feel like I'm retarded and missing something obvious given how my Google searches have given me nothing.
>>48479938Say the sentence out loud.
>>48480024Guess my brain is too fried and retarded to connect anything together. God willing I'll get some sleep and figure it out in the morning.
>>48477287Yeah, my favorite heroine was Minamo. The way her route ended admittedly caught me off guard and is a big part of why it left an impact on me. I respected her desire to still do the things she loved and make an attempt to pursue her studies despite knowing her future was uncertain. I know I wouldn't have the motivation for that if I was in her position.
>>48475562I put something like 20 hours into Rance Quest over the weekend after burning out and taking a long break from it since a couple of years ago. (I got robbed by one of those piggy bank enemies for the first time and quit playing it out of spite.)The pacing of the game is probably the thing that's most impressive about it; once you start playing it's really easy to go "one more quest, one more quest" over and over again until you realize it's 1 A.M.I'm also coming to appreciate how the extreme length of the game gives characters from previous entries their own chances to shine. Athena is a great example of this; she probably has more great scenes within two hours of her introduction in Rance Quest than she had in all the previous games she appeared in combined.I still think it's way too long for its own good, and I have a long list of complaints about it, some story-related, some gameplay. But I'm starting to appreciate it more for what it is, instead of seeing it as a giant bland wall between me and Rance 9 and 10.
I have a type.
Finished Nekonade Distortion. The plot is whatever but it's kinda comfy to read through and isn't very long. I'm considering watching 大正処女御伽話 or 宇宙よりも遠い場所 next.
damn he's cute
>>48474876Baldr Neko Force remake when?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwS8vKr9of8
>>48477994Lmao no, only the first one was fine it gets very retarded later on. Even then the first one is a 50 hr investment for a game whose only good route is the common route.
>>48480979It going full retard is exactly why it's fun. It's like watching a shitty action movie, and it's that way deliberately
>>48481128yes but after the first one it goes from so bad it's good to just bad
>>48480979The start of the first one is one of the most boring shit I've read since they basically are living a daily life inside a huge school that only has 5 students and absolutely nothing to do
>>48481261>living a daily life inside a huge school that only has 5 studentsNever read it but this makes it sound interesting
>>48480982Pain killers. I would advise against reading eroge if you aren't feeling well since it also can spoil the enjoyment of it
>>48480982I was sick and felt bad about myself but then I read my wife's game. The pain mysteriously went away.
>>48481271It really isn't,all their free time is spent doing the most mundane shit before the route(ladder structure) start popping out, but then again fun is subjective so maybe give it a try.Keep in mind that the main character is severely autistic and his way of having fun may be different to what any normal human would do
Saihate no Ima COMPLETE edition refuses to load up what should i do?
>>48481513>the main character is severely autistic and his way of having fun may be different to what any normal human would doSo you're saying he's literally me
>>48477582>>48477519hmm maybe I pla OC..
>>48481516Time to learn reverse engineering
>>48481271rather than a school it's more like a mental asylum for mentally handicapped children and the MC is ironically the most sane guy there. probably the best thing about it is that MC isn't some faggot that will blush if a girl tries to hold his hand
>>48481516the usualfirst you cope with lang localesecond you cope with win 7 compatibility modethen you start coping with virtual machines if googling error codes doesn't work
>>48481622>mental asylum for mentally handicapped childrenokay I'm sold
>>48481271Best thing about it is there is a whore in that mental asylum who keeps throwing herself at the MC. And the MC always goes "pssh no way fag" at her.
>>48481676Don't stick your dick in crazy.

>read 4th route>game crashes>extract script and look for the line that crashed it>comment mentions ruby text>uses 'text] instead of [text]>continue reading>another crash, again wrong ruby text code>continue reading>hahaha>continue reading...How to tell the route's writer is different without telling me.

Explains why the company is dead.>>48456429>eushully returning to make a 10/10 cutie>gets fucked by a niggerAnd that 's why they should die next. 0 good games after Sankai.
>>48482908>>gets fucked by a niggerThe taste of men changed for worse, huh?
>>48480686宇宙よりも遠い場所 is much better than 大正処女御伽話, watch that.
>>48482895I love Kantoku's character design.
anyone know what VN this is? reverse search is failing me
>>48482908Who gets fucked by a nigga?
>>48483564I intended to watch both anyway but thanks for the tip. Guess I will watch 宇宙よ first then.
>>48451062Merry Christmas, /jp/!
>>48483675You can see the school's name in the background.Seems to be this https://vndb.org/v11725
>>48480686The Taisho one got censored in the anime, the moment they removed 処女 from the title everything was over so if anything read the manga
>>48483841Woah! So this is the power of a JOP
>>48482891Can't be helped, it's a spin-off of an original anime and the closest thing to sex you got in that was some cleavage.
>>48484230>a spin-off of an original animeOh I didn't know its from anime, I only watched henjin no salad bowl (kantoku is the illustrator for the LN) and its pretty good.
>>48484230Not even a spinoff, according to Steam it's a retelling of her route from S2 and S3
>>48482916The fact they can release a fully ラブラブromance with dark-skinned men now and is accepted as something normal should be more alarming than any doomposting about remakes or number of titles per year but here we are, if anything it adds more reasons to the pile
>>48484511America ruins Literally everything
>>48480608that's a kid you sicko.

>>48484786She's very pretty, remind me Seira from Roleplayer.What do you call this type of heroine?
>>48484752Yeah

>>48484871>What do you call this type of heroine?爆乳キャラ
I think I lost ability to finish more than one or two routes in moege after I hit 200 VNs finished. Sometimes I can't even get past common route.
>>48485022What does Scaji have anything to do with Nekonade? Outside of having some philosophical talks I don't think the game is that similar to Scaji's works.
>>48485205Same with me man, you eventually get tired of seeing the same tropes over and over. Tired of all the forced drama because the writer isn't of high quality, your requirements for a good VN get fine tuned since you know exactly what kind of girl you like and what kind of story scenarios are needed for a good romance. Its tiring.
>>48484871The long, often eye covering bangs usually introverted type. Idk if there's any term for those.
>>48485205Time to read something different.
>>48484871Another heroine with massive boobs, its kinda incredible they offer 0 variety and still seems to be doing well
>>48485484VNs used to be about exploring romantic scenarios, now they are just gooner material. Bigger is better.
>>48485497Actually smaller is better.

>>48485987>the hoodie isn't completely centredHuh?? are you genuinely blind? Besides any artist knows that for this particular image, there shouldn't be any visible collarbone.

>>48486001>so fat he can't tell where his own collarbone isput down the fork
>>48485892
>>48480686>大正処女御伽話Read the manga first, the anime skips half the story and changes the order of events. I liked how MC grows and puts in so much effort because of the love and kindness he was shown but the anime skips most of that and since they changed the order of events the character development doesn't have the same weight to it (important event in the middle got put at the very end).
>>48483675hey, where did you get my screenshot?
>>48485892AI art is what may kill eroge at some point, fortunately otomidki flopped so we are safe

>>48474767>ironic cultureAnon worded that rather badly.The song itself is absolutely unapologetically pro-lolicon, it's prime mesugaki stuff. But part of the reason it blew up was that people not familiar with the culture assumed it was an anti-lolicon song. Anyways this is getting off topic
>>48485408I tend to alternate between genres and mediums, but sometimes I feel like reading good old moege with some VA I care about. Ambitious mission is the last moege I finished without losing interest.

>>48487057>AI artHave any games been confirmed and caught using it?
>>48489577Plenty of games use it but they all disclose it. Japanese sites take that shit really, really seriously, using AI art without disclosing it is grounds for your game to be banned from DLsite.
>>48489577>caught using itAs it that's a bad thing?? Sure 100% AI made is worthless, but in the future all artists will be using it, it's added into photoshop by default after all. It's a tool to assist artists first and foremost.I can't wait to see 10x the amount of CGs made twice as many expressions and more detailed and unique heroines.

>>48489692>it's added into photoshop by default after all.Because artists wanted it and are using it, or because adobe realized that we're currently in a market where saying "AI" repeatedly about your product automatically triples your stock price and all companies are scrambling over themselves to include it in their products no matter how forced?
>>48489699Because artists wanted it and are using itIt's a new technology, of course companies will jump on it.
>artistsName Japanese ones?
>>48489577I sincerely understand that some may have reservations about the use of AI-generated art in anime-style visual novels and dating sims. The magic of traditional artistry is cherished, and it's crucial to acknowledge the creativity and dedication of human artists. However, AI can be a supportive tool that offers unique benefits. It can enhance the creative process by providing quick iterations and diverse style explorations, helping creators focus more on storytelling and game mechanics. AI-generated art can serve as a supplement, offering new perspectives and efficiencies, without replacing the invaluable human touch. I hope this perspective can open up a space for considering how AI might be integrated thoughtfully and respectfully into creative workflows.
>>48489713Thanks chatgpt, very cool
>>48489515Hear hear
>>48489692The integration of AI art offers remarkable benefits, such as increasing the number of CGs by tenfold, enhancing the diversity of character expressions, and introducing more unique heroines to enrich the storytelling experience. Moreover, AI assists in correcting anatomical errors that can sometimes occur with human artists, ensuring a consistently high-quality visual representation. I understand the importance of preserving the artistic value and integrity of these projects, and I hope this innovation will be seen as a tool to complement and enhance human creativity rather than replace it.
>>48489725You know, I really wish I had the eloquence and depth of vocabulary chatgpt has. I'm literally on baby's first conversation level.
>>48489732It sounds inhuman and ESL at the same. It's like if a tech support Indian person was forced to memorize a dictionary and grammar rules.
>>48477438>Just like the gaming industry this medium is dying.Japanese visual novels, once a vibrant and dominant storytelling medium, have recently struggled to maintain their foothold in the rapidly evolving world of interactive entertainment. While these narrative-driven games were known for their intricate plots and unique art styles, many critics argue that to survive and thrive in modern markets, they must incorporate Western storytelling sensibilities.The traditional visual novel format often features static images, extensive text, and branching storylines but these characteristics can sometimes feel restrictive or outdated to Western audiences who favor dynamic storytelling and immersive gameplay experiences. By integrating elements like interactive gameplay mechanics, diverse narrative structures, and character-driven stories that align more with Western tastes, visual novels could potentially reach a broader audience.This evolution is not unprecedented; Japan has a long history of adopting and adapting Western cultural elements. From the Meiji Restoration, which saw the introduction of Western technology and education systems, to the post-war period, where Western music and fashion influenced Japanese culture, this trend continues to shape the country's creative industries.Incorporating Western storytelling techniques into visual novels is a logical step as times change, allowing this beloved medium to resonate with a global audience. It's a necessary adaptation that mirrors Japan's historical pattern of embracing external influences, ensuring that visual novels remain relevant and continue to captivate audiences worldwide.
