>>50904176RIP to a real one
uh oh
So how's anemoi? I want to read it but it's a key game and sometimes they're great and sometimes they're terrible and sometimes they're great for 80 hours then so terrible at the end they're retroactively awful.
Check out these gigachads.
>>50904350nips cream their pants over Koyomi's route writing about how they cried hard and how much it moved them and it's best or second best route in the game, while simultaneously saying it's just classic predictable most Key-like route written by newbie writer, I honestly don't get them.It seems Awayuki route is experimental, others not so much. Also, no miracles and happy endings in the story this time at all.
>>50904550Does Awayuki ever stop being a slut?
>>50904555no
>>50904550>and it's best or second best route in the game, while simultaneously saying it's just classic predictable most Key-like route written by newbie writer, I honestly don't get them.What is there to get? All of the routes are just classic predictable most Key-like routes, it's all about exectution and if you either find the idea sentimental/beautitul or resonate with it thematically that will change how you feel about any given route.I only have Spica left, gonna do it now, but I also liked Koyomi route the best on all 3 of those frontsSomething that I find really annoying, is the overly formulaic way they try to make you emotinal, by first playing the "terjerker ost 1", then pause "louder terjerker ost 2"(this is your cue to cry), protagonist goes "why....am i crying?". They do this even in some sub routes and nothing takes me out of the experience more, I don't get who thinks this is a good way to do things.
>>50904639Ufff, very 意味深 change to the title screen.
>>50904331Uh boring
>>50904331Uh sex with sisters
>>50904331>>50904713This is how things should be.
>>50904639kino art
>>50904874literal NTR
>>50904639Funny when you break it down like that nakiges feel like horror in a way they deliver the payload.

>>50904880
>>50905162literal whore
>>50904564Good
is it fine to read totsuraba as first crystalia game
>>50905339you can read slop in any order. though in this particular case, having played BA beforehand will improve the experience
>>50905342that's the main reason it got my interest
when is the next 50h+ banger boys
>>50905374only fabled sequels in dev hell can save this medium...
So anybody here that bothered with the new Laplacian game? I wouldn't even know it was released if i hadn't wishlishted it on steam.
>>50905378todd howard?
>>50905397we only like aislop if it's made by empress here
Nice.
>>50905397the disgust towards author would made me hate the game even if it was the best masterpiece ever created
>>50905425>no visible pantsusoulless corporate slop
>>50905430
>>50905430Get some eyes...
>>50905466that's skirt folds...
>>50905469From the top skirt, pantsu, skirt.
>>50905476it's the same color of the skirt, she's holding the fabric behind with her legs
>>50905469Eyes....
>>50905499even if they were, it was clearly made to NOT appeal to the male gaze, otherwise there would be no need for a spectral analysis to find out if pantsu are visible or not
>>50905425>>50905435>>50905498shame that company died, they didn't make kamige, but relationships drama ges are very rare nowadays, every title matters
>>50905503>there would be no need for a spectral analysisThere's isn't any need. You're just blind.
>>50905515cope
>>50905522What's there to cope about? There's clearly an upskirt in that CG. You're the one coping about how it's apparently not supposed to appeal to the male gaze just because you're blind.
>>50905530where are the pussy lips? they are covered on purpose. same color and same shading and same fabric as the skirt. they did the minimum to qualify as a "pantsu mieru" shot but it's clear that the intent was for you to NOT look there
Other routes start to seem pointless.MC has a cute autist wife and should focus on her.>>50905507Yeah, I wanted to read a drama game and remembered this. Maybe cause I watched Golden Time recently.
>>50905533Bro this is pretty embarrassing. You don't have to go on this whole autistic cope spiel just because you were confidently wrong about something.
>>50905538>not a single counterargumenti accept your concession
>>50905540Your argument is that she's wearing white panties and a white skirt. What am I supposed to respond with? lmfao
>>50905545no i'm arguing that the intent of that cg was to NOT sexualize the panty shot
>>50905548Then why did they draw it in the first place?
>>50905553so people like me couldn't bitch about the cg NOT having a panty shot, though in practice it's if it didn't
>>50905555Yeah I'm sure that's what the artist was thinking while drawing it. Literal cope.
>>50905342>having played BA beforehandNo crystalia games are abbreviated BA. Am I missing something?
>>50905658yes, as grok what's BA in the context of visual novels
>>50905658Blue Archive gacha.Someone said its similar in the previous thread.
>>50905662>gacha
>>50905666Is it not?
>I'm gonna help you with loveExcept she's clearly the most interesting girl.Jesus, it's such a classic setup. But it'll be the spice for the future drama.
>>50905698I love MORE's wild ride broswhy did they have to die...
>>50905339Yeah, it has no connection to the previous games. The most you miss is knowing the source of the pictures on the screens in this background CG.
>>50905944too cute
This is true.I'm not the biggest expert, of course, but I can agree to this.
>>50905859They reincarnated https://vndb.org/p9981
>>50903764Is Dimension Lovers as kino as Red Cherish?
>>50906063Cute and fat thighs built for attracting onii-chans
>>50906437it's even better
anyone know how i could get this vn to run on win11? https://vndb.org/v18236did the usual stuff, trying every single compatibility mode, running with/without admin, different install locations, locale emulator/ntlea, nothing seems to coax this piece of shit to give me even an indication that it wants to run. i've managed to run older Xuse VNs than this on win11 with little to no problem, but this one refuses to give even an error dialog.i even got the game from 2 different sources, thinking maybe the installer is corrupt or something, but it just refuses to run
>>50906609can't help you but i wonder why it's split from the original considering that some cgs are literally identical
>>50906609Did you do this already?
>>50906659same shit, still refuses to runmight just have to run it in a windows 7 vm to see if it runs or the files i downloaded are somehow corrupted>>50906633there's a discussion thread on the og release on why it's split, still seems pretty dumb considering there's other remakes on vndb like doukyuusei 2 that don't have their own separate page
>>50906437I enjoyed it more than the Diner games.
Do you guys like Manosaba here?
>>50906920We're huge contrarians, so we all have the opposite of your opinion.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNm7ovrZs60Finally kino is coming
>>50907054Is this going to be a super shortge too?
>>50907056He said on his yt before that it's going to be at least 2-3 times bigger
Damn Koyomi route was good, very surprising from the dude with literally 0 writing experience
>>50906920It's alright I guess.
>>50907361I really like it a lot and I'm glad Acacia is making more games.
>>50906920i don't think it's worth reading
>>50904874Damn, I guess it does count as NTR, even if they made sure the other guy is a total dick.
>>50906920I haven't read but I jerk off to the girls
>>50907798Finished the first route. Damn ladder structure. You know how it ends up being. And the story itself was rather standard. You could imagine how it will play out.At least Ruri-chan was really cute.
