the fuck is this alien font?
Best nukige this year?

>>50362835Either Sei Dorei Gakuen 3 or the newest Milk Factory.Looking forward to the isekai ANIM game and the new Lune NTR game next month, but I'm not expecting anything great.
Love non-standard fonts.
>>50362859> Sei Dorei Gakuen 3Do you need to play the first two games?
>>50362945No, but you should play 2 because it's pretty good. Only play 1 if you have mega autism and need to play things in order/understand some passing references.
>>50362862Back when I was really bad at reading handwriting I'd set VNs that let you choose the font to fonts like that for practice.
>>50362776cinecaptionits pretty standard for fantasy games like metaphor
kamige where I play as a girl?
So what are the winners of today's releases?>b-but they've only been out for a few hours!When you're a true eroge master, you'll know.
>>50363455not interested in them. waiting for december and january
>>50363465Could it be...the even higher level, the super eroge master, the man who has reached such a high level of mastery he reads no eroge at all...
>>50363470just the backlog for me
do you agree bros?
>>50362859>Lunedamn, for i moment i thought they finally start to work on an elves sequel... instead it's just a cheap fandisk game. at least they didnt change the artist, but what a disappointment. how i wish these hacks would just fail.

>>50363487If God is a series of states, then it follows God is mutable. If God is mutable, then how does he stay "God" even though he's constantly changing? Ergo, that statement is fucktarded. Writer could have skipped a step and said "everything is God" and it would have made more sense.

>>50363566A full length Aoi Nagisa game has been pretty much impossible these past 6 years because he's one of the main artists for the Taimanin gacha. It's a miracle we even got the FD.

>>50364606new slop yay
>>50364603>
>>50364734>
>>50364537from the premise and the preview cgs i just know it's gonna be the cheapest kusoge ever conceived. i hope aoi was well paid to accept such a job, he's literally the only redeeming factor and it aint gonna be enough anyway to make it decent.
>>50364606they already gave up in making black protagonists?
>>50364606Surely December 19th is like for further information not the release date.
>>50365343Obviously.
Why do some scenario writers feel the need to force in some retarded drama that doesn't make any sense like the MC breaking up with the heroine for no justifiable reason? What exactly is wrong with having a natural romantic ending?
>>50365365moebutas aren't human so there's no reason treating them as such. they will slop any forced drama anyway, as long as there's a pregnancy cg at the end of the rainbow
>>50364603How good is the romance of this game?
>>50365365I think I've read plenty enough moege and haven't come across that type of thing. What game you're talking about?
>>50365403Are you kidding? It's in quite a lot of VNs Drama drummed up for the sole reason to ger the reader to feel the low of sadness and high of happiness when they make up or solve the drama.
Honestly, I enjoy VNs where there's only one H-scene at the end of the VN more than ones with multiple H-scenes.
>>50365465Give an example.
>>50365496Why should I?
Are we looking forward to anemoi?
>>50364606Let's hope it's actually good this time
>>50365565No because the imouto route is platonic.
>>50365565I'm tired of all ages
>>50365365https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kishotenketsu
>>50365674Hopefully they have the good sense to make it obvious that the sibling actually love each other and will become a cure couple after the events of the game.
>>50366032It's a key game, anon. She'll probably turn into bright lights and die.
>>50366062Also okay, as long the siblings profess their love at the last moment.
>>50365565I like that they are doing 2 loli heroines and side chara routes. Story taking long time chronologically(from early summer to late autumn). Hope they can make SoL interesting despite wagie setting
>>50366626>Story taking long time chronologically is also nice and can help to develop romance at slower pacefixed
>>50364606Finally another full game, crack trick was a disappointment.
>>50366677and this one won't be? lol
>>50366681it might be, it might not be. literally who writer but at least it's not fumi
>>50366681Not him, but I've enjoyed all their other games. Don't see why I shouldn't be excited.
>>50366681It wont be sub 10 hour long with 6 scenes so yeah. And no kasucky fuckmi writing.
i'll play my first moege in december... i'm thinking on amakano 2 blonde girl, or amakano 3 sayu, or ginharu mizuha... wish me luck bros
This thread will never be the same right? this shit has been going on since 2023
this thread is like 4 sincere people reading in japanese and then 12 people from the english reading thread who treat this place and the readers like a zoo
hey, i read in japanese!
I had a question but ill ask later
>>50366910No. This is nu-/jp/. Accept it along with all the other spammers that mods won't ban since they're busy babysitting the hololive thread 24/7.
this thread has been mostly good since 4chan came back online except for the occasional djt discussions. no need to whine. some posters just stick around just to whine even though they occasionally claim they're leaving or whatever
What are you playing? What are you looking forward to? What have you finished?
>>50366945played zato, it was pretty good. looking forward for the sayooshi troonslation. might jop wa1 in january
>>50366949>looking forward for the sayooshi troonslationThis is the fucking untranslated thre- whatever, you're the shitposter. You already know that.
>>50366945Blue ArchiveBlue Archive
>>50366952i said i'll jop wa1 in january
>>50366955which model
>>50366960jop means read in japanese. every model knows that
>>50366944i agree but only because i have over 10 filters setup for this board specifically
>>50366961is grok better for reading in japanese or gemini
The fact you people wont make a translated VN thread here on /jp/ means that you are all trolling and dont really want to discuss VNs, you just want to shit up the place in a VN-themed thread
>>50366967no, grok and japs can only translate stuff into english
>>50366944Yeah, if you just ignore the guy shitposting blacked porn, the MTL shitposting, the guys shitposting about jeets, the guy shitposting about reading translations, then it's actually pretty good.
>>50366936How fucking sad even a thread dedicated to such a niche subject can't escape from this cancerIt has never been more over
Is the first Memories Off worth playing? I've played some of the beginning and it was far too dated... Can I expect good storytelling? Already did 2, 4, 5, 8.

>>50367045good idea
Once I'm done with Kakyuusei 2, I'll do a top 5 heroines ranking from all four of Dokyuseiverse games, which will save this thread. Wait for me.
>>50366945I 100%'ed Ayatsuji's route in Amagami yesterday. It took about 30 hours to get the last ~20%. Ayatsuji is such an interesting girl that I didn't mind doing it, but this game has way too many petty events that you have to restart from zero to get. Getting the bad ending, though, was crushing, even though I feel like it's necessary to see it to understand her character completely. Ironically, it also seems to be the only "bad" end that actually punishes the MC (and more so the girl). I don't know how long it would take to 100% the whole game, but I think it would easily take 300+ total hours.I'm also a few hours into Kiminozo since anon helped me find a version that doesn't crash, so I think I'll focus on it now.
>>50367062Amagami anime was so good. How does the VN compare?
>>50367065I haven't seen the anime so I don't know (I only started playing this because I saw Kaoru somewhere and thought her hair was cute), but it's truly something else. None of the scenarios are really weak (I only thought Nakata's スキ route was boring), the humor is unique, the BGM is nice, but I think the best part is how there are so many different events and situations that you basically know everything about a girl once you've played all her routes. They also put a lot of detail into every line with how the characters move and change expressions. I really think Kimikiss and Amagami were just the scenario writer and artist's joint pet project since they never worked on a game again after those.
What the fuck happened to this thread
>>50367094Zoomers
>>50367090Yeah, the writing of the anime was quite tasteful, I assume it's much more subtle than the VN due to the format though. For example, I sensed some complex Ayatsuji had about her sister, which must have been more obvious in the VN. Her confession scene is superb, still one of the best I've seen to this date. I recommend the anime if you're interested.
>>50367094/vn/ raid gone wrong
>>50367094Someone anon had the brilliant idea of sharing a compilation of doujinshi inside a mega link 2 years ago and ended up raping this general beyond comprehension
>>50367116Link to the compilation?
>>50367116stfu retard
>>50367101>For example, I sensed some complex Ayatsuji had about her sister, which must have been more obvious in the VN.It doesn't make it obvious, but it does lead on through several events that her sister is some kind of autistic savant that doesn't mean anything wrong, but whose natural talent ultimately led Ayatsuji's parents to neglect her in her favor. Also the fact she's socially retarded and doesn't realize it probably gets on her nerves.I do plan on watching the anime after I get all the extras in the game. The only thing I've heard about it is that it has funny changes like making Nanasaki turn into miso ramen instead of shoyu ramen in the Pharaoh attraction.
>>50366689>>50366686How can the man who wrote gun knight girl fall so far?
>>50367145Interesting, thank you for letting me know anon. I had assumed a "she's too perfect" type of scenario like in Oregairu.
>>50367159 (me)>Oregairualso, bro really played WA2 and diluted it for the masses
>>50362766Finishing up Mashifoni and then going to start Memoff Innocent Fille for my next winter game. Never played the other games but Noelle is cutey hapa and Hokkaido is a pretty uncommon setting. Maybe might check the other games if I enjoy it.
>>50348395>mitsuki’s route in kiminozo?Kiminozo routes are very PERSONAL for each player. To me Mitsuki route is the “best” cuz I was still on heartbroken state when finished it, but as the time passed by I still think it’s the best. However to appreciate mitsuki’s route more, I read haruka’s route (which the true end is pmo) and akane’s route as well. PLUS I recommend Kiminozo Drama CD vol 2 and 3 (Mitsuki and Akane) after the OP at the end of chapter 1.many ppl prefer haruka’s route but I think But keep in mind, just follow your instinct>well-written romance drama?If your objective is a good romance, like have a good romance transition from “friends to lovers”, conflict, then reconciliation, there is… almost none since the writing had too much gaps mainly from ch 1 to 2 (they should’ve been fill the “gaps” instead of making sub routes baka). At least Mitsuki is the only heroine who shown why she and MC were attracted to each other (they should’ve been together since the start of the game lol). The rest of heroines, even haruka, fall in love to MC only because this is that kind of game, so I can’t take most of the romance drama seriously
>>50367563 (me)Many ppl prefer haruka’s route but I think, again, it’s personal to each player
>>50367158GKG was unrestrained Fumi kino and lightning in a bottle, unlikely he will make something like it again.
I tried out Uragawa.What's their is good - great, even - but it's woefully unfinished. Three girls out of seven (based on the non-selectable areas on the area select), each girl has 5 or so CGs, and then it's done. There's some real potential here, this dev knows their shit and can make some absolutely stellar porn, but the game needed to be 5-10x the size.
>>50367751I haven't actually read gun knight girl, I just figured if praised it someone would tell me if it was good or not.
>>50367044If you already read all the notable ones then probably not unless you're an absolute autist like me who wants to start from 1. Go read 6 and 7 though they're entertaining enough to read.
>>50363729the art looks very nice, might pick this one up>>50363744Which one? there's many flowers in the archive, is it this one? https://vndb.org/v15395>>50363952might be a bit too long for meI would guess its not so often that people want to be the little girl
>>50364053>the real state of God has to be the unityyour peasant kind was killed after the 17th century or something
>>50367044>Can I expect good storytelling?Yue and Minamo - yesI also like Kaoru because of her personality and story being the most fitting to the main theme
>>50368107>>50368566Thanks, anons. Are there any other vanilla romance VNs in the league of WA2 and Memoff?
>>50367860lol
thoughts on https://vndb.org/v1107?
>>50369174i thought amagami artist did this wtf
>>50369194it's the dude who does covers for LOi want to know if all h-scenes are ntr or just bad ends, because tags imply it's cuckshit
>>50369174>>50369199Read it and find out.
>>50369216it's 30h long
>>50369222That's medium length. So what?
>>50369266so i don't wanna spend 30h only to find out whether it's cuckshit or not
>>50369271But you clearly have an interest in the game or else why would you be asking for other people's thoughts? Just go read it.
>>50369281i want to know beforehand whether self-insert or not. i can't just switch mid-way through
>>50369287It's not a moege, you shouldn't be self-inserting in the first place.
>>50369291why not? i self-insert in plotge unless it's cuckshit
>>50369299Because main characters in plotge are usually actually written as such, they're not supposed to be (You).
>>50369306>not supposedi self-insert into whoever i want. also if the mc isn't voiced then it IS supposed to be (You), regardless of how it's written
i self-insert into anons here
>>50369314You're quite literally "playing" the game wrong.
just self-inserted inside ur mom lmaoooooooo
>>50369319no, you're wrong. unvoiced mcs are always for self-insertion
>>50369327No, unvoiced MCs are always for budget preservation.
>>50369005Tenshi no Inai 12-gatsu also made by Leaf. Not as good as WA2 (barely anything is) but still worth a read.
>>50369333yeah, i'm sure muv-luv had budget issues..................
>>50369339I'm sure it did. Hence why the MC is only partially voiced.
>>50369379ok i concede. can't argue with somebody lacking basic media literacy
>>50369335>Not as good as WA2 (barely anything is)it was my first VN after watching the anime and it still is my favorite. i can't recommend it to people because of this, it sets a very high bar.
>>50369339the guy sold his house and then recently said that he was able to bring only 80% of his vision to life and that he extended scenario deadline by 3 years. so yeah it probably had lots of production issues
>>50369391You do know that "budget" doesn't mean "let's spend everything we have to the point of almost bankruptcy". It's clear that age thought the visuals were more important that full voice acting so that's what they spent their budget on.
>>50369408>>50369407you do realize that not voicing the MC can be (and usually is) a choice, so players can self-insert, regardless of budget?
>>50369333ever since scaji said that it's easier to add in new information and change the story that if you don't voice the mc, i've been noticing the occasions of studios doing this
>>50369419For moege, sure. For a plotge where the MC is an actual character? Nah, 99% of the time it's for budget reasons or this >>50369426
>Got cucked in the fanfisk...
>>50369437ok then i reformulate my initial question: is the mc in >>50369174 an actual character or not?
>>50369449Nah, he's a self-insert and only really serves to guide the mystery. You can even rename him.
most of the authors who want their work to be a lasting legacy WILL voice their mc though. see wa2 and muramasa and asairo, they don't see their work not just in terms of visual novels but as stuff that'll be compared to the best of fiction
>>50369458ok thanks, then asking again, is all the cuckshit part of the main story or stricly relegated to bad ends?
>>50369464none of those were written with self-insertion in mind tho so it makes senseon the other hand looks at something like fsn which is unbearable with voiced shirou
>>50369471I didn't do all the bad ends, but IIRC there is some ntr-y stuff in the normal routes, like a heroine being forced to give an antagonist a blow job, but if anything he's the cuck since he forces the MC to rape the heroines a bunch, getting off to that instead.
>>50369537>spoilerkek i love early 00s vns
>>50368445if you're gonna play manosaba nows the perfect time, it's absolutely booming in sales and twitter discussion
anemoi full ED song is outhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOOPK8e1K7Y
>>50369478>not enjoying Sugiyama's autistic screaming
>>50369850>popular GODnow is the time to NOT play it and wait until the paid shilling dies down
>>50370109for the hipsters like you who care more about the appearance of reading than actual reading it's better to sell it as "play it before the eops get to ruin it"
>>50370185>for the hipsters like you who care more about the appearance of readingbut you are only cares about it because it's "hot" and because eops can't play it
>>50370189i played it cuz i saw it on twitter and it looked good i had no clue whether it was translated or not til i looked at the steam page
>>50370206>i played it because it was shilled on twitterexactly
>>50369306I still self insert into actual characters. Actually I prefer to self insert into actual characters too
How do people self insert into Kageaki? He's too much even for me.
>>50370238It's not that hard, he's the platonic ideal of the typical self-loathing male. If you're a horny guy you'll likely relate to him. The demon twink is much more characteristic and harder to self-insert into.
