>>51164888Is there a reliable way to access erogamescape without having to ask? I have a dynamic IP address, I don't want to ask every other month.
>>51167625Use a Japanese VPN
>>51167073maybe on planet it's the opposite day every day
>>51167640Such as? I tried VPN gate already, but it's stil blocked
>>51167640NTA but doesn't the site specifically block VPNs? I use one for other places but it doesn't work there.I've asked the admin to unblock me before and he did, but then my IP was back to being blocked a few days later.
>>51167625Try using tor and just keep resetting until you get an unbanned IP, or keep cycling between vpns from different countries, i remember swedish ones used to let me in easily

Is Eiyuu * Senki WWW any good?
>>51169519Eiyuu Senki is just Sengoku Rance but worse in every way gameplay-wise.
>>51169615Really? Why?
>>51169644It's literally the same gameplay system but much more shallow and made extremely easy.
>>51169687Hmmm, so can I play Sengoku Rance without having played the previous games?
>>51169707If you want, sure. It was most people's entry to the series.
>>51169707Sort of? There's a shitload of returning characters so you're better off playing the other games to get a feel for the setting but not a huge deal if you don't
>>51169710so I can try starting from the beginning and see how it goes. It might even be good for practicing my Japanese reading skills further.
>>51169747For sure. If you're learning I guess you should power through them all, but otherwise be warned some games are kind of bad and not the end of the world if you just skip them. In my opinion only Kichikuou Rance is good from the older games, only after 6 onwards they become fun enough to enjoy outside the story
Started Cartagra FHD. After the prologue and OP, there's just one line of text - 嬉しい after which vn just freezes. And it also crashes when I try to open the settings menu. Does anyone have the same problem?

>>51164888Does anyone here use local AI to translate from Japanese? I'm looking for something that I can pair with an OCR (want to play some very old games so text hooking is unlikely to work). Something that doesn't refuse to translate or mangle erotic and profanity.

>>51170644no i mean codex cli by openai
not an untranslated VN but I'm trying to play Baldr Sky in original japaneseproblem is when I click the installer executable the installer text is garbled, and i assume the VN's text will be garbled as wellthis is on a fresh win11 instance and I've already set system locale to japanese, enabled utf-8, and downloaded MS gothic and mincho. Not even app locale emulator works.I'm sure you guys are pretty well versed in this sort of stuffthis is the release i'm using:https://pornolab.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1816167https://gofile.io/d/IQ6EqT
>>51171457run codex in that folder and ask it to fix this
>>51171463it's mojibake bro
Best childhood friend character around, well, maybe Mifuyu from koichoco is better. This bitch so fucking sweet though, I don't have the heart to do another route before completing hers first.
>>51171469i didn't ask what it is
>>51171457>enabled utf-8try disabling thisit might be expecting shift-jis instead
>>51171486yep, that was it, thanks
>>51164888What is the most heinous VN you've ever read? The most edgy, debased, immoral, ludicrous, shocking VNs?Something that femnazis would want to give the death penalty for?Okay, for that last point literally any straight VN applies. But you know what I mean.
>>51171724nie no hakoniwa probably
>>51164888Can anyone suggest me good VNs with a mother/teacher/boss love interest?I tried checking out a few, but it's all boring shit. All shitty fuckfests where it just says that the hole you're entering is that of your mother/your teacher/your boss.I want nuance.I want a mother heroine that favors me at the expense of my siblings because we're fucking.I want a teacher that gives me good grades and punishes my bullies, because we're fucking.I want a boss that helps me climb the corporate ladder, taking a dump on meritocracy, because we're fucking.Things like that.
>>51171724>Something that femnazis would want to give the death penalty for?That one where you use genetic engineering to turn your little sister into all kinds of animals and fuck her.
>>51171738Can you have male animals fuck her?
>>51171724i guess either this https://vndb.org/v2290or this https://vndb.org/v13835second is wilder and more gross and shocking, but its also a denpa kinda mystery drama horror kind of story so, it has a justification i guess, I think because of that more people would give it pass. You know like how people give Saya no Uta a pass. I guess something like maggot baits is arguably worse than it too actually. first i guess is way worse to feminazis and i guess everyone in general because it's a child, and theres also not much story or justification other than its hot and fun to torture her. There isnt much of an element of guro or horror or anything like that to it (except one ending), in a way maybe that makes it more shocking. Also theres no bad ending for the protagonist or condemnation within the game or nice alternative route, which I think happens in a lot of other games and stuff like this and would make it worse to people. Again using Saya no Uta as an example where the "bad guy" protag can lose and he's condemned a lot within the game, i don't think people would be so forgiving if it portrayed him as in the right and had no one pointing out how what he was doing was evil. So yeah, I guess the first game. There are a lot of rumors about this game getting banned at some point but as far as i could tell its not true.
>>51171915I had the first backlogged already, I should check it out soon
>>51171915Thanks anon, really appreciated!
Since it's VN request hour...Do we have VNs were we (male MC) help a girl commit evil, heinous acts? Preferably against other girls, but generic villainy is good too.
>>51172411Isn't the one guroge that released a few years ago literally that?
>>51172411>>51172416yeah nie no hakoniwa
>>51172411Rance and Venus blood
>>51172426speaking of, I guess this project is dead?
>>51172533They're just slow. Nekopara games and that upcoming Inupara game take forever to come out too.
>>51172411陵辱相姦図 ～強制妊娠精液地獄～ is a short VN that's exactly what you're looking for.
Not sure if this is the right place to ask about public trackers, but, Why does mikocon have more downloads on average than girlcelly if the latter is generally considered the safer alternative?>t. Newfag
>>51173470It's because they don't like nemu and haruka.
>>51173470If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say it's because girlcelly sometimes puts the crack you need to actually play the VN in a weird, completely separate place, like on animesharing, or a link to one of those shitty rapidgator-esque DDL sites that barely work.
>>51173470mikocon is a whole chinese mafia thing where they got a forum full of chinks where you can pay for premium accesstl;dr weird chink mechanics

is there a single vinny with food talk that's not written by a women? and no, nasu is not a man no matter how much you cope about it

>>51171765No. I meant https://vndb.org/v567 btw, not a particularly bad game but I figure if you poorly described it, women would consider you some sort of criminal.
Any good detective MC VN?
>>51175086https://vndb.org/v22027No magical girls though.
>>51175096Thanks!
>>51175086https://vndb.org/v52689I think I'm the only one that read it and it was pretty good.
>>51175444>pretty good>5.85 average
>>51175538VNDB ratings are meaningless and have zero correlation to quality.
>>51175541holy cope lmaothe tragic thing is that people like this npc unironically believe this
>please care about what brown people have to sayNo, I don't think I will
>obscure and untranslated is... LE GOOD!>what do you mean it's dogshit? REEEEE YOU ARE BROWN DO NOT REDEEM THE VNDB SCORE AIEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>51175086Ouka Sabaki kinda
>>51174955Waka-sama is 50% food talk
>>51175765that's the whole point of the game so it doesn't count
>>51175641NPCs need a score to tell them what to read and how to feel about it
>>51176146dishonest and loaded statement, but enjoy eating shit i guess
>>51176151What does a weighted average of 5.85 after fourteen votes tell you besides the fact that 14 VNDB users played it and though it was decent?Is there some secret information I'm supposed to be garnering from this score which reveals the secret truth that this seemingly typical mystery VN is actually complete garbage?
>>511755385 or 6/10 is not a "bad" rating on vndb
Saw a reminder that the dmm sale was about to end and remembered I still had a few things in my cart.Started checkout the exact minute after the sale ended.fug
>>51176341>>511763635.86 from 14 tightly clustered votes is already meaningful negative evidence: the 95% CI is about 5.15–6.57, while the VNDB-wide average is ~6.1. If its true consensus were actually 8/10, seeing a sample this bad is roughly a 1-in-100,000 event; for 9/10, roughly 1 in 6.6 million. Basically, there are at least 10000 better VNs to spend your time on.
>>51176363it's not good either
>>51176378here's a visual representation
>>51176363To be fair the game in question is only like 4 hours long, but with a standard 20-30 hour game, I wouldn't even bother sticking through the whole thing if my enjoyment of it is less than "decent". I'd drop it and move on. Hence why I've never rated anything less than a 5. Far too many other games I could commit that time to instead.
>>51175830
>>51176378The flaw in your reasoning is that my taste and the taste of the average VNDB user have very little in common.Love Stories: Sex and the Furry Titty's weighted average is a full point higher than 黄昏に潜む梟と、明け方の昴. Are you seriously suggesting that if I read both, I would be more likely to enjoy the former?
>>51177060maybe, but that's irrelevant. the point is that there are like 200~ better detective game with cute waifus than that one
>>51177060False equivalence.If you're looking for a furry game, then you might be more likely to enjoy the 7.29 avg rated furry game compared to a 5.85. Not always, but more likely.But what you're doing is comparing apples and oranges.
>>51177208I very much agree with you.My point is essentially that if someone asks for a recommendation for a title of a certain genre, and a person tells you about one they like, and your reaction is scoffing in their face and saying, >"Oh, I would never play that, it doesn't even have a 7 on VNDB!"Then why even look at any recommendations in the first place? You clearly place a great deal of faith in VNDB scores. Just click on the tag you're interested in, hit the sort by rating button, and read the list presented to you from top to bottom. You obviously aren't actually interested in the opinion of the person you're replying to; you haven't read the VN they're talking about. All you're doing at that point is disparaging them for having a nonstandard opinion, despite the fact that if you took the time to read the VN yourself there's a chance you'd end up agreeing with them.
>>51177441>Just click on the tag you're interested in, hit the sort by rating button, and read the list presented to you from top to bottom.this but unironically
>>51177441Taking a shitposter/elitist seriously in the first place is a waste of time.There can be a happy medium to referencing scores though. I do check them and seeing a high average rating on a game can increase my interest, and seeing a low average will make me assume there are common flaws in the work that many people find disappointing.I'll check out something I'm interested in regardless of score, but I wouldn't entirely brush off scores either.
If a vn is less than 10h long it gets skipped regardless of rating. True length, not voice skipper retard false length, vns are not inferior medium books or lns so should not be read as such.
>>51177602this~
>>51175538It's a pretty solid short mystery VN, it's not like a masterpiece or anything but it's pretty good. It does suffer a little from one of the twists being so predictable I didn't even realize it was supposed to be a twist, and from the fact that they clearly desperately wanted to make it a series with sequels, but overall I enjoyed it. It's worth a read, it's short enough that you can do it in an afternoon. It'll also always stick in my mind because it's still the only VN I've ever read to actually talk about the coronavirus and the effect it had on people in high school when it hit.
>>51177757i hope you will pick a better game for the next 4 hours of your free time
>>51177831Eh, probably not.
>>51177757The art is lovely and detective works appeal to me so I might check it out at some point.
Danm, it's been almost a years since I played Red Cherish. Finally decided to play the fandisc.Good thing cyberpunk vampire gf is still cute.I guess this is a spoiler, even if it's shown in the original game OP.
hanaKINOsoujk, it's barely above mid kek
Oh shit, I'm sorry.
>>51179392I always hate it when I'm a few hours into a nice, serious drama VN and one of the heroines gets revealed to have a hyper futa cock and immediately starts autofellating herself.Really fucks up the pacing.
>>51179446How often does it happen?
>>51179459Quite often in sca-di games. I can think of at least two examples in non sca-di games where serious plotge suddenly took a crazy futa twist and became a nukige for a bit
This is weird request but is there any anon here who still play vn on vita/psp and know where to download Irotoridori no Sekai World's End -Re:Birth- For Ps Vita, all the links I found by Google search are dead https://vndb.org/r73698I don’t play on pc anymore so that would great help
>>51179569https://minerva-archive.org/rom?id=2700323You can download it as a NoNpDrm backup here, just click magnet, uncheck every game, and then check only Iroseka like this.
>>51179611Oh wow thank you so much anonIt’s been on my backlog for so long, can finally play it

Any news on Saga Planets? It's been a while since their last game. Don't tell me they're going to slowly fade away into oblivion.

Stop forcing your random BL kusoge, not a soul is reading this shit.
>>51181750>it's afraid
>>51181751Who the fuck r u nigga
>>51181750Random BL kusoge include some of the best VNs ever made.

>>51164888Not untranslated, I can see the character name is translated in the text box.
>>51181784not funny, be funny?
>>51181784That's transliterated, not translated
>>511817501. you can quote posts you are replying to by clicking the post number or by writing it manually, like so >>511813732. it's neither bl, nor random, not kusoge. the official description explicitely says that this is not BL/otomege (though it is joseimuke or whatever). also consider looking at this kino distribution: a couple more 10/10 and this would've been kamige territory, and with such a low vote count it's still in the realm of possibilities
>>51181750also 3. you have a very strange definition of "forcing", nobody is forcing anything to you, i don't expect fellas here being open-mind enough to read something outside their comfort zone
Is there a way to speed up VN by like 1.5x? some new titles have it but is there some program that can do it for all VNs? I want to play majosaba but it's too lsow
>>51181897i made a mod to control trials flow if you need
>>51181750Don’t ever listen to this shit, post more obscure bl or otomege or whatever looks interesting with good art especially on psp, they’re hidden Gems
Does anyone know of any sites with comprehensive guides? I'm kind of new to this."攻略 GAME NAME" gives me hits but it seems to be omitting important details since I can't seem to get a good ending despite meeting the conditions listed in the guides I've found.
>>51181919There are some sites but they're the ones you'd find by googling exactly what you said. Some games are obscure enough to not have much online content, and most people would rather have stuff as spoiler free as possible so it deters people from writing too much.Maybe you're playing a different version of the game or something? Even a version number could imply you're missing a patch or something that alters whatevre you're doing
>>51181918Hidden coal*
>>51181919>>51181923i just ask chatgpt work to make me a 100% walkthrough with the fewest saves/loads possible and then put it all in a mobile checklist/walkthrough websiteit just works
that specific foidsloppa aside: the psp was such a great and comfy console for untranslated vinnies. fuck sony for not making psvita hackable day 1 and killing any potential successor
>>51182043Sony killing Vita as soon as it got cracked open shows that they're in complete denial about how the PS2 sold many units even late to its life cycle. They're unwilling to admit that the PS2 sold many units because it was easy to crack hence it's very popular in many third world markets and without them it wouldn't sell as much.
>>51182063i don't remember how much it took to actually crack it, but i do remember than the sd adapter came out only after it was already dead and their custom cards were extremely overpriced (though this would actually make sense if it was hackable, but afaik it wasn't for at least the first 3 years of its life)
>>51181373why post otome or bl here and not in >>51158952 what is the fucking point sisterdo you want us to flood /blog/ with straight moeshit or something

>>51182590It's the VN thread. This is the place for posting screenshots of the VNs you're reading and sharing your thoughts about them.The only reason that the thread is slow is more people aren't doing what he is, and that's not his fault.I never thought anything he was doing was the slightest bit unreasonable.
>>51182662>it's afraid
>>51182590You've spent more posts whining about it
>>51182639Do we like Shinbashi, Aomi, or Ariake?Please do not lie to me and say you prefer one of the others, no you don't.
sorry if this is a bit off-topic but i've been starting to learn japanese so i can read everything from vns to doujins, everything is going fine but i'm scared shitless when i see kanji and the 2200+ gvt-mandated list everyone HAS to know.Anyone here can share a good learning method? are apps like wanikani even worth the install?
>>51183662wanikani is worth doing up to level 30 if you don't have the self-discipline to do a core deck with ankii personally recommend srs-ing at least 500 basic kanji + their vocabs before starting reading vinnies
>>51183672ありがとうございます
HFK
>>51183662As a fellow new fag I just googled how to read visual novels in japanese and found learnjapanese.moe. Followed the guide and then started reading to the best my ability. I don't know if this is the most efficient way, or if its become outdated. Do your own research if you're feeling unsure.Don't listen to people who say you shouldn't care about difficulty when picking something to read. Even if the easier titles aren't as interesting, the joy of being able to comprehend what the fuck is going on makes it worth.You can find out how difficult a title is on Jiten.moeI wish you luck on your nihongo journey, its nice knowing there are other people who are noobs here.
>>51183662Kanji aren't as scary as they look at first. Either they're so common, you'll learn them without even trying, or they're so rare, you'll almost never see them.You can get really really far just by reading for an hour or more every day, even without a specific dedicated kanji learning method.
>>51183728yeah, i've been googling the kanji inside certain words in games or movies i've known for years on kanji dictionaries and went "oh shit, that makes perfect sense" and "oh, so that's why", it's pretty cool>>51183775i'll keep that in mind
so, it endsmoral of the story: don't read elite
>>51183808It's just a directly worse version of the original that cuts everything that wasn't a scene in the anime, right?Does it add ANYTHING new?
>>51183654Shinbashi.
>>51183654Hey now, there's some very good boys not included there.
>>51183662I used a DJT guide but that was long ago and last thing i heard was that the general got permaraided by some guy shilling his guidesRead tae kim+anki and set up some text extractor for your VNs and start the climb
>>51184014>Does it add ANYTHING new?it adds extended @chan sections which are pretty cool, but REBOOT also includes those, so it makes more sense playing that one directlyand in any case. for the first playthrough it has to be the og, reboot for is for replays

Which Princess Maker (or clone) should I play?I want an installment with lots of spoken dialogue, and that is easy to install/emulate.Given the choice between a more RPG/errand-heavy or a more VN/story-heavy title, I'd lean towarda the VN-heavy one.I'm currently leaning towards Princess Maker 2 on the PS2, is that a good choice?
>>51185370sorry i don't read slop, can't help you :( but maybe another slop-eater will reply to you soon
>>51185370There's Volcano Princess that came out few years ago and it's pretty popular. There's also Magical Princess which came out few months ago and it sold well apparently.

I'm thinking about playing Kisaku right now; I've never played Isaku or Shuusaku, but Kisaku has really piqued my interest—it looks like a great game.

It's almost been a year and I'm still on the common route of Lemonade Jam.
>nihongo noob>started reading about the writing systems>"kanji and hiragana are the writen forms that express and admire the souls of all things">got into an introduction for katakana>"all foreign things, which have no kanji, and are cold and robotic"cunning japs, they call gaijin soulless with subtle linguistics...
>>51190693is it that boring?
>>51191294No, I'm gay and slow
>>51190778I hope you aren't paying for that education, because you appear to have picked up information that's of dubious correctness.
>>51191430how is it wrong? asking sincerely, i'm reading very old books i pirated that just try to explain the "philosophy" behind the writing systems
>>51191688There exists no real philosophical difference between hiragana and katakana. They were developed by women and men, respectively, due to the differing ways in which men and women where taught to read and write in Japan before 1000 CE. They were both maintained through the Meiji restoration because they help make reading easier in a language that normally has no spaces between words.They're just normal parts of the language, in the same way uppercase and lowercase letters are normal parts of English. They can be used in ways where they have differing nuances, but they don't have differing meanings.Katakana is in some cases (most notably manga) used to imply a person is speaking in a broken and awkward fashion. You often see this with robotic-speaking robots, as in this 4koma. Or for a stereotypical American character who isn't quite fluent.This is probably what the text you were reading was trying to express when they said it is used for things that are robotic. (I personally disagree with the "cold" aspect, many robots/gaijin etc. who talk like this are very personable.)What katakana is not used for is a term of disparagement. If I wanted to disparage the Japanese company Sony, I would not write their name as ソニー. That's just considered another normal way to write their name. If I wanted to insult them I would call them くそにー or something.
>>51192106Idk if actual native Japanese people feel this way but when I see katakana being used in a way that hiragana was used instead {basically swap the typical use of hiragana with katakana), I naturally start to read it slowly and in almost robotic way because I'm not used to seeing katakana being used in the same way as hiragana.
>>51192126I think that's the general concept, yes.The mouthfeel is different.You also see it used the other way as well, e.g. 艦隊これくしょん.
Took forever to get hiro_in to unblock my IP for EGS, one week later shits fucking blocked again. Don't wanna fucking spam the guy, but shit fucking sucks :(
>>51192182The same happened to me. I haven't requested another unblock yet since it'd probably just go back to being blocked again within a few days.
>>51192182Oh I just checked and I'm blocked again.
>>51192491>>51192757Yeah idk what the deal is, but at this point I'm just gonna leave it for a while and message him again.

Damn, it really is tough getting a few old Giga and Minori games to run... I really wish I could read Soreyori no Prologue and Shirogane x spirits... maybe they'll release it in digital preservation in fanza, dlsite or steam... unlikely though since its a couple of obscure closed eroge devs.
why did everyone wake up suddenly???
>>51195136It's good for the character count stat so I can see semi-accurately how long a VN is. For anything other than that it has zero use for me.I never visit the website, I just use the script https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/549246-vndb-character-count
>>51195206that's pretty neat thx
>>51195204Soreyori no Prologue is old? It runs just fine
>>51195204??
>>51195204Idk about minori but GIGA released drm free exes before they died. Here are some links from many many threads agoGIGAThat's the list of all downloadable files: https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://caras.rassyai.com/~giga/support/down/*That's the list of drm removers: https://web.archive.org/web/20230318123243/http://www.web-giga.com/support/trouble/index.htmlThat's the support page: https://web.archive.org/web/20230331063145/http://www.web-giga.com/support/index.html

>>51197270They tanked that.
>>51190230I'd recommend Shuusaku over Kisaku personally. Both are great though.
Kinda curious.But did any famous VN writers recommend any books on writing/creating a VN? Perhaps they even wrote one?

> Paradise Lost -> Dies irae ~Acta est Fabula~ > K3 -> Dies irae ~Amantes amentes~ new contents -> Dies irae ~Interview with Kaziklu Bey~Is that the optimal way to go through Shinza? I’ve heard the new Amantes contents actually references K3 in a few ways, which is why some people recommend placing it there. Thoughts?
>>51198963You could just skip aef, but I hate the censorship, even if it's actually how they wrote bey.Also paralost is kinda crap.
>>51199070The intent is not to skip anything. I'd go through the other Shinza-related works outside of the VNs too, like the Dies Irae novels and obviously Avesta, etc. So I won't skip anything, no matter how bad it is.
>>51198963>>51199070A while ago an anon posted a guide on how to best see all the content across AeF and AA, I'll share it here.
>>51198401Shit I was just about to play it
Anyone got a crack for sakutoki?
This is a really bad way to decide what to spend 50 hours of my life on but: What should I play if I want to read cool scenes about ordering troops into battle? Like in Hellsing or in some mecha anime. I want to be chuuni Preferably without gameplay elements
