Has someone here played this BL VN ? The guys look pretty attractive for a late 2000s BL but I haven't found any discussion about it on the archives.
>>50901531it was boring
Finished (basically, I haven’t got every bad end or SS) Unlogical.Mixed feelings. I liked Uchronia more, I think. Kanna was cute and I thought the setting was fairly unique. None of the boys really infuriated me or anything, but none of them stood out except for Kai. But Kai’s route was dragged down by a subplot with a crazy female side character that’s obsessed with him. Honestly I hated how much other women who were in love with or slept with the guys got brought up. I know the point is that you’re supposed to be charmed by seeing how cold they are to girls who aren’t the heroine or whatever but that stuff just makes me roll my eyes and feels too trashy for a sci-fi plot game. Also why wasn’t Ran the true route? I can’t understand the reasoning in giving him a route that’s unlocked from the start but leaving out key details that are only cleared up in a mini route locked behind everyone.Relatedly I don’t know why Miyabi was locked if Ran wasn’t. It only reveals things about Miyabi himself really. I also really hated the back half of his route, it felt unfinished. I didn’t like Miyabi’s backstory either, surely if he grew up like that you’d expect him to know how to deal with people better. It’d make more sense if he was just a rich antisocial tech guy from the start but I guess he had to have a criminal past for sob story points and edginess.If anyone else has played it, are there any particular non-CG bad ends worth getting? I’ve done some and some actually had story but most were just dead ends.
Only interested in the redhead knight, osananajimi and God in crazy chainThe rest are not cute
I'm finally playing Olympia Soiree and honestly I'm liking it a lot but that solution to the White issue would be Byakuya having a harem, since the plot already mentioned that inbreeding is not doing very well for some. Oh well. My first route was Tokisada because he looked the cutest, it was okay and I liked his very strong desire to fuck for such a cute boy, Riku's route and plot was better though, now I'm doing Yosuga's route which made me question why they couldn't just let the harem happen, but Yosuga is very sexy and I love the one Yuma uses for his voice.
I'm surprised they established Noiz as bisexual.
Do y'all know of any more sexually aggressive ukes ? The one I've found so far is Tengenjibashi from Tokyo Onmyouji who magically paralyzes and ties up his seme boyfriend to a bed in order to finally have sex with him.
>>50911090I can only think of specific scenes where some ukes get sexuality aggressive to have the seme fuck them but nothing else.
What went wrong with this one?https://vndb.org/v4090
I know this doesn't really count as otome but for those who enjoyed the Princess Maker series, Magical Princess just came out and is surprisingly pretty fun.
>>50914295It's nice to see that genre have a bunch of releases recently
Why do Otome LIs look generally more feminine than the BL ones ?
>>50918084They just look more colorful to me.
Acccording this his weight and height this guy should be as buffed as Tatebayashi but his sprite makes him look almost as much of a twink as Kyouichirou like ...
>>50900911This is wrong.
>>50921269He’s taller and lighter so not really. But I never thought of Senge as particularly twinkish anyway, certainly nowhere near Kyouichirou’s build.What surprised me since I don’t normally pay attention to these things is that Tatebayashi and Misaki weigh the same when Misaki is 8cm taller. I always thought Misaki was meant to be the muscular one.
This sprite looks kinda mid for this kinda description Idk.
Has anything been said about BWS switch port getting censored or will it remain the same, just with better quality?
>>50922618It should be the same as the vita port, and unfortunately the vita port did censor some stuff based on quick script comparison. Here's some examples of expressions changed or removed. These scenes are all quite early into the game, just thought I'd spoiler them in case someone really cares.>violence toned down>pcそして、すぱん、と馬屋に向かって走る男の首を掻き切った。頭部を失った村人の体が、どさりと地面に崩れ落ちる。そこに群がる狼たち。やがて、響きだす咀嚼音。肉をむしり、鮮血を啜る。だくだくと溢れる赤は、雨の雫とともに大地にぬかるみを作る。>vitaそしてそれは、馬屋に向かって走る男を真っ直ぐに捉えた。村人の体が、地面に崩れ落ちる。そこに群がる狼たち。溢れ出す赤が、雨の雫とともに大地にぬかるみを作っていく。>blood relation changed>pcちらり、とネッソの顔を伺うが、まったくいつもと変わらぬ、平然とした様子だ。（まあ、血は半分しか繋がってないものね）貴族の間では、兄妹間や、従弟など、近親間での結婚も珍しくはない、が。（ネッソはたまにきわどい事を言うから……。 兄にドキッとしちゃうなんて、バカみたい）>vitaちらり、とネッソの顔を窺うが、まったくいつもと変わらぬ、平然とした様子だ。（ネッソはたまにきわどい事を言うから……。兄にドキッとしちゃうなんて、バカみたい）
>>50923280Ty anon, maybe I should just stick to the pc version
>>50910838Neil's still the Bi King tho.
>>50923280Oh man, I wasn't aware of this. I've been hyped about the Switch port since it was first teased. I own the Vita port but never got around to it.Assuming they didn't tone down anything from the PSP game, this might still be the definitive version of Last Hope. But I guess if I replay Bloody Nightmare it'll probably be on PC again.
>>50924678Michael topping everyone including the priest still very funny to me
>>50923518>>50924838Yeah, PC does seem more aligned with the original rejet vision for Bloody Nightmare. I wish there was a way to skip directly to the newly added scenes on the ports...
>>50926113Didn't know there were newly added scenes. I assumed it was simply the two original games in one package, ported as is (well except with some censoring apparently).
>>50921912Tatebayashi is a fatass
>>50925592The priest is an innocent virgin who would never hurt a child, so it makes sense he can be topped
>>50922492The whole game is mid.
>>50924678I love him so much, I wish I could summon his tulpa
Hate it when a LI is boring in his own route.
>>50929989All deredere LIs from the start of their routes for me honestly.
New BL VN with vampires drops next year but it has a demo out already.
Newfag mods killed a-s. Otomedream 2.0 soon.
>>50934757Aarin? When was it ever a good place to discuss anything ever?
>>50934766No the other one. Aarins fine.
>>50934757Cue kids crying that they'll have to drop their hobby because they can't afford their $40 games.
>>50934781Oh anime sharing. Only time I took a lot at it it was a bunch of MTL discussing VN and I didn't even bother.
>>50935172Bet u still bothered pirating stuff from it broke ass.
>>50934757It sucks I've noticed some regulars that usually shared games before have stopped doing so after that new mod started imposing new bs rules to the otome/bl section of the forum. idk what it is with otome fans always trying to police what other people do, why can't they be chill like eroge bros and bl bros?
>>50935288Kek why the reply? Did I touch some nerve?
>>50935380It’s probably a slopper. They’ve been getting real uppity these past few years.It used to be something you did, but didn’t tell people about, there was this tacit understanding it was kinda shit and embarrassing.These days though, even on VNDB forums you’ve got folks openly talking about it, even straight-up selling MTL translations.
>>50935340Eh, some BL bros have a stick so far up their ass they make the ukes from their VNs jealous.
>>50935340otome fans tend to self insert which leads to most retarded behaviors. It's the same as straight guys who self insert and throw a fit for every retarded shit.
>>50935340Yeah and on top of that the new mods are using the worst hosting links imaginable too. Well idc much bc you can still pirate the otomeslop that they share from plenty of other places, but its still very retarded and embarrassing to act like that on a piracy site. Otomechink is on the verge of closing too, since not many people are retarded enough to pay for piracy nowadays.
>>50935388even when they're on a forum made for piracy they still try to act holier than thou, enforcing rules that exclude majority of people. If they're so allergic to sharing then just gtfo instead of ruining it for everyone.
>>50935388>tend to self-insertIsn't that essentially what most romance VNs, otome, galge or otherwise, generally entail?Not in the "faceless Y/N" sense, but in the sense that even MCs with personality are usually a vehicle for the player to enjoy the romantic situations vicariously through.
>>50934757I don't really care because I managed to get into the sharing section from a few posts. I'm not socially retarded enough to not say "thank you" when someone shares me something, it's common courtesy and the easiest thing to do. Even if a-s goes under, otome shit can always be downloaded easily from somewhere else.
>>50934757Eh, big releases will leak anyway and pirating a 500 yen dlsite game is haram
>>50936386Are there any "big releases" anymore? When was the last time anything sold Utapri or Hakuoki numbers?Feels like the industry has been struggling as barely a niche at most for a long time now, especially against gacha games. For as much as some complain about Otomate, they're basically the only thing keeping otome releases from being outnumbered by western amare shit these days.
>>50936409You aren't wrong, though surely things aren't that dire even if it's not the psp/vita abundance era, there are new titles and fandisks coming out. Eventually they'll hit on something big again.>amareslopoutnumbered sure, but not outsold, even westoid devs who make them don't play them lol and it's only the same 2-3 games they keep praising
>>50935340>new bs rulesqrd? I heard of not being able to access the otome section without account activity but are there uploading related rules now too?
I just noticed a-s has different DL tiers where higher ranks get super duper exclusive stuff no one else can get. What does this mean? Does it matter? I can only imagine it might be tokuten which no one shares anyway.
>>50936532>are there uploading related rules now too?Yeah.You can't post download link to 3rd party sites anymore, mods will remove them.You can't post your own download links in the request threads anymore. Mods will remove them and ask you to create your own threads in the otome section.You can't create new threads with download links that don't require locking content anymore.That's just off the top of my head, there might be more.And only the otome/bl section of a-s has these bs rules, no other section does.
>>50936770>You can't create new threads with download links that don't require locking content anymore.Why? They already gatekeep the download center as is already. I remember there was a Chinese uploader who never asked for anything back. I guess the new rules is why they can't be assed to share anything more. What's the point sharing if a mod (who I doubt ripped any of the shit they uploaded anyway) is gonna impose something like that?
>>50936921The new mod is on an ego trip. They posted a thread for Navigatore of the Ruined World but made it so only members of their exclusive group could access it while regular members had to wait a week before the link became available. They did it that way so no one else could share the game before they did.> I guess the new rules is why they can't be assed to share anything more.Exactly. The game is already available on normal pc download sites anyway so it’s not like they even have something exclusive. What annoys me is the bs that drives away uploaders who genuinely like sharing games with people, they’re being pushed out by a mod who’s desperate for attention and credit.
>>50936770those first two rules were technically already rules set by an older mod (who was in fact a similar kind of control freak) but stopped being enforced when the otome section didn't have a proper mod for many years. but I actually like those rules and can see how it can be good for longevity of links and site organization.enforcing locked links is pretty dumb though since the section is already gatekept pretty hard imo.>>50937006>They did it that way so no one else could share the game before they did.do they ban multiple threads of the same game now too then? because then that's going way too far... but even then I don't see how someone couldn't still snipe the upload with their own rip onto the same thread just to be spiteful kekslightly unrelated but I similarly hate the uploaders who upload to the worst filehosting sites just to have a thread bump back and forth with reup requests and reup links, rinse repeat. kinda makes me want to snipe their upload but it's not like I care enough to buy the game myself nor able to save their copy since their links are almost always dead unless you specifically ask for a reup.
Registering on a-s never worked for me at any point so I end up buying the games instead because I'm lazy.
>>50937023>those first two rules were technically already rules set by an older mod (who was in fact a similar kind of control freak) but stopped being enforced when the otome section didn't have a proper mod for many years.But the otome section is the only section with those rules.>I actually like those rules and can see how it can be good for longevity of links and site organization.a-s is not an archive site so who cares if the links from some years ago are dead. Those strict rules just make people hesitate to share which goes against the spirit of piracy.>do they ban multiple threads of the same game now too thenOf course they don't allow that. You might be banned if you try to go against the mods even.There were instances where someone requested a game -> mods said their "group" already purchased it but would only share after 1-2 months -> someone else got the game and shared it early -> mod got super pissy .
>>50937006I can understand hosting games that are a bitch to get otherwise, or pirating something that you're just going to be ruining with MTL anyway.But something that's newly released, cheap, and readily available?Ironic they're getting high and mighty about actively damaging their own hobbies kek
Otome games are seriously lacking in otouto routes.Please give me my grumpy teen tsundere little brothers to dote on and fluster.
>>50937006That's really pathetic. I don't know how that mod got picked, they even got the nerve to put their name by the group name on the Navigatore of the Ruined World thread. I've seen long time sharers who didn't get the highest tier either.
>>50937264>a-s is not an archive site who cares if the links from some years ago are deadsharing was largely dead and very slow on the a-s otome section for a few years until someone stepped up to make some archiving attempts though. there's no doubt that's when activity really picked up again. thanks to that some of the older more obscure stuff was revived again too. ideally the downloading section should look more like aarin's, and the moid sections are decently good at doing without any extra rules (based on a few I've seen in the past).>strict rules just make people hesitate to shareno strict rules about sharing right here on these threads but it's not like anyone shares here like they used to either kek>mod got super pissythat was an incident where the site admin got involved and said the mod shouldn't have done that though. while the mod's sekrit club and playing favorites is a surefire way to kill a community, if people just go along with it nothing's gonna change. just snipe those uploads who the fuck cares. kinda pathetic to just cry about it if you only ever download and aren't an uploader yourself.
>>50938098This. I'm going to play the omegaverse game just for the otouto.
>>50939709Wow, that game wasn't on my radar enough to realize there was an otouto. Now I'm looking into it though, and the gallery snippet where horny MC is begging otouto for fug has sold me.
>>50939191>sharing was largely dead and very slow on the a-s otome section for a few years until someone stepped up to make some archiving attempts though.That was ANOTHER control freak, one's out and another popped up.Nothing wrong with the forum's being slow, it's not like there were many otome/bl games being released every year.>no strict rules about sharing right here on these threads No shit not like this place is made for shitposting that disappears after few days or anything.>just snipe those uploads who the fuck cares.You can't make another thread for the same game, it's against the rules and your thread will get deleted anyway + you'll get banned for "violating the rules">kinda pathetic to just cry about it if you only ever download and aren't an uploader yourself.I know where to get my games outside of a-s so I actually only went there to share my games, not to download them. But that's no more until that mod's gone.>>50938622>I've seen long time sharers who didn't get the highest tier either.Probably lot of uploaders who's been on a-s for a long time aren't happy with this new mod. And people have to pay to be included in their "exclusive" group lmao.
genuinely what is the point of locking otome downloads behind activity? why do I have to slog through the most generic reddit-tier posts like "who is your favorite character" "do you use the auto button" "who is your favorite seiyuu" "do you like tsunderes" and contribute to a fake sense of community. screw this, i'll just read BL instead.
>>50940921>you need 30+ posts to see this>you need to be in the sekkrit klub to see this>what's the solution? spam posts and have your data collected by some creep passing by while you're at it tooEvery niche hobby has their own mentally ill retards but at least eroge/normal games communities aren't interested making things needlessly complicated for literal slop powerpoints. I wonder if there's a way to get a group of people to mass report this mod.
>>50940921>screw this, i'll just read BL instead.Isn't the a-s otome and BL section still combined anyway?
>>50941428It is, but it's easier to find niche BL on other sites than niche otome.
>>50940921>>50941409Why are otoge fans like that? Is it because they are new and don't remember the Internet of old? Aarinfantasy users never made special rules about the content linked there.
>>50936770Damn I havent logged in for a few months since I havent needed a-s for anything lately but I definitely wont have full access once I do. RIP
>>50941910From what I've seen, it doesn't apply to older threads, so get what you need to from those while the old links are still alive. Newer games are easy to get legit anyway.
>>50941959Oh thats great, thanks for the heads up anon
>>50941735As far as I know, that new mod isn't even that young. Otome fans are just a special breed of bringing others down. It happens when you try too hard to pretend you're a "good person" and yet think you deserve something back for being "good". Just run of the mill sociopathy and attention seeking.
Anyone have a favorite PS2 Otome game? Just got a JP PS2 for non-/blog/ related reasons but was wondering if anysis had any recommendations.
>>50943861Drastic killer, nana and true fortune. Edel blume was bad but nice art. Towa no Sakura if you like br incest. Mine liebe has blood related incest too.
>>50943861This one https://vndb.org/v1635 has a pretty unique concept with MC being the mother of a pair of twins. The only reason I haven't touched it yet is because it has raising simulation tag.
>>50943861Desert Kingdom was pretty fun.
Once again so annoying that they won't show us the seme's abs during sex, should've just had him bent the uke over the table to allow us to see them.
>>50944104>>50944225>>50944649Based, thanks sisters I will be on the hunt for these
New マーダー工房 VN is out
>>50945062>That artWhy can't this company commission good artists
>>50945062Apparently this got an ENG TL? I've seen screenshots of it around the web. How is it?
>>50945062Lmao those "pecs" are drawn like moobs, shit art
>>50947477It's MTL. Haven't played it enough to judge.
Been a while since I played something where I actually obsessed over the LIs
>>50947598How did we reach the point people just post MTL without shame?
>>50948789It's been like that for a long time though.
>>50948801"long time" how is that even possible when before some years ago MTL was barely readable garbo.
>>50948803People really were trying to decipher that garbo hilariously enough.
>>50948803>some years ago Pretty sure text hookers were already a thing two decades ago. Newfags are spoiled nowadays since there' are tools to easily hook text from almost any game, including console games, and the MTL translations are actually readable. Meanwhile oldfags had to find hook codes for individual pc games back then just to read incomprehensible lines.
>>50948789some even paywall their MTL patches, never underestimate tech illiterate zoomers
>>50949029>paywall their MTL patchesHow the fandom has fallen... >>50947308How did they get Fukuyama Jun and Hirakawa Daisuke to voice it in 2026?
>>50949027>Pretty sure text hookers were already a thing two decades agoYes, that's what I said.
Why is this thread on autosage?
>>50948789People pay dramatic create 60 bucks for their mtl localizations. At least the patch is free. (Seen some that are asking for donations for their mtl fanpatches which is humiliation ritual)
>>50950043They just put every thread pn auto sage after only 2 weeks.
>>50950160/jp/ was never good, but this is the final straw.
>>50948789It's been like that for a while. If you go anywhere outside of here, people constantly celebrate MTLing everything.>>50950248If /jp/ was always bad, then you might as well say the entire website is garbage. Wish anonymous posting wasn't so shit nowadays though.
>>50950352>If you go anywhere outside of here, people constantly celebrate MTLing everything.Pretty much. Now that MTL is a lot better it's seen as unreasonable for people to learn a whole language to read visual novels.
>>50950363>Now that MTL is a lot betterMTL can't go two lines without making a typo or misstl a sentence.
>>50950361>It's been like that for a while. If you go anywhere outside of here, people constantly celebrate MTLing everything.I wouldn't said it's celebrated. MTL is still mocked everywhere It's just MTL sloppers got more cooky and since they don't know the language they can't tell a good tl for a bad one.
>>50949029Kek I thought you were kidding but then I looked aroundhttps://vndb.org/t24848/5What the fuck is wrong with people?
>>50950607>since they don't know the language they can't tell a good tl for a bad one.On top of that, they don't know English either. It's really sad how people devalue learning foreign languages these days. Full on reliance on AI is unironically like feeding McD to your brain directly.
>>50950607You misspelled cocky babe, maybe stop using MTL to write for you in English.
>>50950621Oh no a typo, how will I ever recover.
>>50950621Why would MTL misspell a word?
>>50950607Nah I would say mtlcucks arent mocked enough nowadays, especially compared to the past. They delude themselves that its akshully gotten accurate now just because the output isnt an incomprehensible garbled mess anymore
Mtl slobs and seething ESL JOPs should make out.
Need to bully that mod into submission
>>50951795Can anyone post screenshots from the game?
>>50951795This is so ridiculous and embarrassing. Yall should complain and talk to the admin or take over if you want something to change.
eroriman was good. A bit short, but sweet.
I don't care about friendship in Paradise, just give me gay sex
>>50951795How do cunts like this get hired? Not enough mod applicants? Previous mods need to put her down
>>50951795>stealing is bad you guys mkay >at a pirate siteMy nga
Hi anons. Could you recommend me an otome game or a bl game that's similar to Kara no shoujo? It doesn't have to be a murder mystery. I like innocent grey games in general so something with the same atmosphere would be fine too. Thank you!
>>50952789Hmm maybe you'd like Ooe or Shingakkou Noli Me Tangere.
Somebody wrote a review already.
>>50952789I'm not sure I can think of otome with similar atmosphere writing-wise as KnS, but I feel like BGM helps contributes considerably to KnS's atmosphere. The composer MANYO handles all of the BGM for Innocent Grey games, I became a big fan of him from them.I would recommend Collar x Malice if you haven't already played it. Another detective suspense story, and with BGM fully handled by MANYO (with a flavor reminiscent of KnS ost imo). Other than that I guess Zettai Kaikyuu Gakuen would vaguely come to mind as a recommendation.
>>50951795Can someone who has it reupload it? It got deleted.
Finally some more data on VNDB.
>>50954089Its still there?
>>50951795Is it just me or is it impossible to make an account on that forum? The registration form just blanks.
>>50956602It didn't work when i tried either.
Why is the fd longer than the main game? I'm intrigued since people rate it higher on vndb too.
>>50957610I had no idea this even got a fd lmao what, was it popular? And sequels/FDs tend to be higher rated since people who liked the first game are more likely to play it
I forgive all his greasy pickup lines, this scene is too cute
>>50958436We really need more pathetic men like Ichiya in otome.
>>50957610What site is this?
>>50959000https://jiten.moe
>>50956688>>50956602Registration using your phone should work.
>>50959327It did, thank you anon.
>>50958436Wait I love this art what the fuck I need to play this
>>50961445I started playing for the art but I ended up being quite fond of it.
>>50961445RdF gets mentioned most as Usuba's magnum opus a lot but I prefer VariBari's style. Her designs for the new Hakuoki game also look amazing. VB is entertaining so far too but I'm just finishing up the long ass common route so I cant comment on the individual routes just yet
>>50947541It's indeed shit, especially this last CG in his route looks atrocious baka.
