>>51247056>Da Capo againheh
I've just discovered that the 1989 Disc Station which included the very first Madou Monogatari game also included a demo for Rance 1.It must've been a surreal experience for someone who bought this back when it was new to watch two tiny obscure 'zine games from the same issue each turn into decades-spanning franchises.

https://www.christcenteredgamer.com/reviews/pc-mac/kanon-pc>I found out after I read the novel fully that some routes were written by different authors, and this made a lot of sense in retrospect. >I enjoyed all of them for the most part, but some were a step above the rest, and one in particular is just much worse than the others.>Nayuki, Shiori, and Ayu's routes are all excellent>Hisaya Naoki: Nayuki, Shiori, and Ayu's routes>Maeda Jun: Makoto's, Mai's and Sayuri's routes
>>51247727>christcenteredgamer
>>51247727I don't like what this is implying...>christcenteredgamerAnd if that's what it is, I am a little puzzled that the most western character in the game gets put in that box.
https://ci-en.dlsite.com/creator/40172/article/1951832The EGS overseas server is a monthly subscription.>I hope this server will make it easier for users outside Japan to access the site.
>>51247713I didn't think Kanon was Maeda.
>>51248552why do Japanese people all have brain damage
>>51248558it's a requirement for writing kamige
>>51248552Wait has he blocked all foreign IPs for this? He unblocked my IP a few months ago after I emailed him but I just checked now and I can't access the site.
>>51248564Just checked and I still have access.
>>51248564As far as I know he will continue to do whitelisting.
>>51248566>>51248585Oh, good. I was able to access the site 3 weeks ago but I guess I'll ask for an unblock again.
>>51248552>Decide to make an overseas server.>It's sub-only.>Nobody subs for it.>We are getting rid of the overseas server because it wasn't popular enough, for some reason. We don't know why, honestly.
>>51248610the most retarded thing is that he will just manually mail you the fucking login data you need to usewhy did he even bother setting this up
>>51247056>played through Da Capo againBut why?
>>51248623I think it's a combination of skill issues and being concerned with bots scraping all their data
>>51248610tbf having a proper cloud-hosted read-only mirror for gaijins and bots makes a lot of sense, but if you make it login only then what's thoe point? might as well use the main website with vpn

>>51249044Idk, for some reason I just find the game really relaxing, it's good story, good vibes. Also haven't played it in a few years and have been considering playing the rest of the games in the series as well.

>>51259718No one playing that hasn't already played Danganronpa.
>>51259733Danganronpa is kind of old by now, the format was grabbed and reused for today's kids
>>51259722>contributing to the societyIt's interesting how spammers are always ESLs from a third world country.
>>51259733i haven't played danganronpa but played manosaba
>>51259741interesting how you low iqers always appeal to grammar and ad hominems instead of refuting the actual substance of the post
>>51259742You are a rare species yet to be identified.
>>51251654I played むすメイク recently and it was good. Playing a 3D game after all the normal vns really gives you the big nut.
>>51259526>nukitashi >good heroine
>>51251654I can only tolerate giving my daughter to my son
Just finished ソナーニル.I'm super impressed, excellent style, tightly written, and didn't wear out its welcome. I suppose it helps I basically agree with the conclusions reached.Any of the other ones this good?
>>51259804Yeah, Nukitashi has several great heroines.
>>51260338>Any of the other ones this good?I assume you mean Sakurai's games and not Liar-Soft titles as a whole. I really liked Valusia but unfortunately you read the best one first.
>>51260354A lot of people like inganock more and gahkthun was also pretty solid.
I don't like it when you guys are being mean about the titles I've played in the past ;-;
>Liar soft>good
>>51260429Yes.
>don't read anything from a brand>say it sucks
I keep giving Liar-soft titles chances and I keep dropping them.I can see why other people enjoy them, but I'm pretty convinced at this point they just aren't for me.
>>51260444I got sick of steampunk back in like 2013. Sorry bro, not interested.
>>51259722Something tells me you just don't like dragonpara and its clones and you're just shitposting
>>51260794i like ace attorneys and zero escapes
>>51259440How the fuck did you even lose your saves?
>>51260893haha....
>>51259704Targeted at teens so they take estrogen?Thought it's a serious crime mystery vn.
>>51261466It's just a game for a younger audience. Modern day danganronpa. Troons in the west will like it I guess
>>51249912I liked amatarasu. The princess was cute. CUTE
>Reading Magical Girl Witch Trails>Still learning and refuse to use text hooks so I'm getting through it slow, but doing well understanding like 98% of it>Finish chapter 1>Wife who loves Danganronpa and Ace Attorney watching me read from time to time and asking what's going on>Asks me if I can read the official English translation when it's out if I don't finish in time so that she can know what happens faster>Who the fuck am I quoting?I'm...going to take that as motivation to lock in harder and finish this before the tranlsation comes out. But I don't even know how soon that is, it's supposed to be by end of year.Okay, guess I'm tabbing out of the thread and reading now.
>>51260338Download for this? Looks interesting but I only found a dead torrent on Nyaa and english direct download on Ryuu

>>51266386it's better to get accustomed to reading japanese in the first place. After a year of reading such vns I can now read vertical text and voiceless only so I don't think I'm wrong?
>>51266465sure you can post a vocaroo of you reading something unvoiced, right?

How often do you come across typos in eroge?
>>51272172just Astra it
>>51272247Once i saw the heroine said 網 and the written dialogue say 綱Really funny
>>51244623Do you all really?? Why don't you just use AI to read your visual novels? Just Astra it ffs
>>51272247pretty often usually at least one or two per game but sometimes none

>>51272110This shit was so ass
>>51272886it's so much better in english
>>51272247Pretty often; I'd say once a month when I'm reading regularly.I actually played a really fun TS-themed ARG recently that used "typos" to write hidden messages.If you write all of the typos on this page in order, it spells out タスケテThe game is here if anyone is interested:>https://meikyo-joshi.yonyon.workers.dev/
>>51272247I remember that most uguisu kagura games have a shit ton of typos. One that bothered me in 水葬銀貨のイストリア was a relatively early scene where the speaker name was wrong for one line and it took a little bit to figure out who was supposed to say it. Also, the official patch had a broken file structure that caused it to not actually do anything and they didn't fix it until years later.
Has the Sasasagu PC port not been uploaded anywhere?

>>51270751Moderation on this website is essentially dead. It's even worse on /jp/ because it used to be a fairly strictly moderated board. This thread has 275 posts, and I'm not joking when I say that 10 years ago probably 200 of them would've been deleted and the poster banned minutes after posting. All you can really do at this point is filter and ignore.
>>51274547>it's afraid
for jp reading chads: is it just me or is it extremely easy to notice when the writer changes? both between routes/games.
>>51274565
>>51274642depends on the gamesome are and some arent generally feel kinda gross about it if a vn has multiple writers ngl
>>51274642I feel like I usually notice it, but I always look up how many authors a VN has before I play it, so part of it might just be confirmation bias.I will say going from Sengoku Rance to Rance Quest felt VERY abrupt to me. Rance feels like two completely different people at the end of Sengoku and the beginning of Quest.
>>51275052i'm talking specifically about the prose. once i get used to reading x then it become very comfy, so when the writer change everything feels "wrong" for a while and i need to re-adjust
>>51274642yeah, especially with yuzusoft because they have multiple writers and you can instantly tell where the game becomes shitThere was a clear notice in the middle of chaos'child common route and the game went to shit instantly with its plot and mystery
>>51275235I remember a route in senren banka where they suddenly kept using ひょっとして in every other sentence.

>>51274547I see that your guys thread is getting spammed with the AI shill and "it's afraid" spammer, as well. Sad that the mods are dead, so none of this gets pruned. The VNTS thread had been completely ruined by them.

charlotte is such a cutie, i hope i can impregnate her and then go back in time before the conception~!
so, about this ageGEM:basically you are an amnesiac dude going from carriage to carriage on a train, and the gimmick is that each carriage is set in a different time, but with the same cast of characters from the same train journey. aka, when the mc changes carriage, the next carriage is either from the past or from the future, so it's kinda hard to follow at first but the further you go the more things make senseit's also pretty fun trying to reconstruct the proper chronology of events by drawing wagons on paper and connecting them with arrows, based on new carriage data
