Volcano Princess is really gay and I'm very proud of my daughter for not only hitting up one but two nee-sans at the same time at the end. It was a tough fight not to shed tears on certain parts because it was so wholesome and sweet. I dare not venture into the darker parts of the game.

If someone hasn't played the game (sorry sis that can't play because of specs) I just want to give some advice on your way:

1. There are sometimes shiny objects on the screen once per location. Pick it up.
2. At a certain point you will get 'patience' points. With patience you can interact with people. You can chat, hang out, learn from or duel them. Don't be like me. Don't forget to use them at the end of the day.
3. Food is very important. Cook. Cook as much as you can.
4. Hold onto Earthworms until you can use them.

Hah, weeb.
VP was discussed very extensively back when it came out. I think we could probably make a guide from all those posts... but they already have guides on Steam and other sites.
>I dare not venture into the darker parts of the game.
Try getting the alternate version of the Lebsa romance ending at least. That's fucked up, but who doesnt like toxic yuri?
The criminal cult leader and demon lord endings are pretty edgy tho. Can lead to really funny nonsense though because profession and romance endings are independent of each other. So you could romance Connie the nun during the day and become the demon queen who will kill all humans with her demon army at night.

I seriously feel conflicted with the whole Lesba thing and I screamed at my screen when I had to fight her. Again. With only 36 health left. Bitch couldn't take a hint when she went down the first time. But I was glad when she got deus ex machina'ed. It is seriously tempting to follow the dark path + Connie. I probably will do that after I got some more endings.

I for one couldn't. For some reason, the very thought of making Rose unhappy or hurting her is repulsive to me. Guess that's the whole point of daughter raising sims.

It's the True Ending of the game, it was supposed to be the most challenging battle. It used to be even harder back in the day before they got rid of the Asbel transformation. You definitely got the much better version of the True Ending.
And yeah, if you go for Lebsa after playing the True Ending it must feel really weird. That's why I recommend having Lebsa as your Lord first and romancing her, just so that the conflict is maximized and all the revelations hit twice as hard!
But you should definitely do it on your next run. There are two different Lebsa romance endings if you are romancing her. The first one is the same as the normal Lebsa romance ending if you romanced her without getting the True Ending.
>It is seriously tempting to follow the dark path + Connie.
That was just a joke. I do not actually recommend that combination, because at a certain Darkness level Connie will not be happy with Rose. And everything about how the romance and profession endings cross over is headcanon, so it's not like the game acknowledges or tries to justify it. I like the way you have to write your own story in your head on how they work together.

You said your Rose seduced two "nee-sans", so I assume you get the Gwyneth/Mona poly romance ending? When I got that my Rose's profession was "Royal Fortune Teller" which was just a coincidence, but it was so perfect. In that ending Rose basically poisons herself because she had a divination that told her she could get closer/solidify the love between the three of them if she did that. So because she is the Royal Fortune Teller she was the one who made that prediction herself and she also lives at the castle with Gwyneth due to her job, the only way to spend more time with her busy Queen wife.
It's nice when the endings line up that way.

My personal conflict with Lebsa actually stems from the fact that there is a dude's soul in the other 'Rose's' body?
That was a pretty wild revelation, ngl.
Now I have the added problem that I know I am going to talk to a backstabbing dude every time I see her.

>Gwyneth/Mona
I got me the triple puppy ending. That was absolutely adorable and so hard to suppress the tears of joy. And Mona was the best option in my eyes from the very beginning. Considering the fact that I raised a glutton, it was the only real option to keep her ravenous hunger in check. However, I'm glad she got Nina too. My little knight wasn't a particular smart cookie.

>gets ring from girl

On top of being financially save with an excellent cook she can feel safe and secure about the future. That's a combo I can get behind and fully support as a parent.
>>
>>4277848
>that there is a dude's soul in the other 'Rose's' body?
Not exactly. The twin is also not Rose. She is just her sister.
Things used to be worse, because originally it really was Asbel possessing the body and even turning back into his male form during the final boss fight, but they changed the lore. As Lebsa explained, Asbel's evil will and desire for godhood took over the twin sister who had the divine power of the goddess. It's not in any way implied anymore that it's actually Asbel doing a soul transfer like it was before. Basically Lebsa is just deeply corrupted and considers herself Asbel's pupil.
She is not a dude. Period.

Nina isnt a nee-san... well whatever.

These threads are only good when they talk about Volcano Princess. So I must ask, WHERE THE FUCK IS MY YURI EXCLUSIVE VOLCANO PRINCESS SEQUEL, CHINA?
>>
>>4277863
1. It's been less than a year since the last major update to VP, so a sequel is almost certainly not even in the works right now.
2. It will never be yuri-exclusive either way. F/M pairings were fairly popular last time the stats were posted, even though it was a Gwyn sweep overall.
>>
>>4277463
Not right now but put like 60+ hours into it a while back
>>
>>4277863
The only reason VP was successful is that it catered to everyone. A game with the exact same mechanics and style that only has yuri would never have blown up like this. It's a game that heavily appealed to Chinese het girls and fujos.

Ah, my apologies. Back on topic, then, what do I gift Lebsa? I have an idea on what to gift Nina when on dates, but Lebsa is a mystery.
Also, I can't seem to find a third girl to go on adventures with. I got Nina and Mona, but none of the other girls I can talk to seem to be willing to go on adventures. I'll have to bite the bullet and get a dude in.

She likes alcohol and basically everyone likes that one flower. What was it called? The pruple star shaped one.
>third girl for adventures
There are none. Only Mona and Nina are available. The gender balance is extremely skewed towards dudes when it comes to combat. That said, you hardly need allies or the dungeons to begin with. Rose can solo everything with a little bit of grinding or an overpowered weapon. If it's your first run Mona and Nina should be enough support. Mona has the second best ally skill in the game. Though nothing compares to Rose's overpowered special moves later on.

You can challenge the dudes to duels though to get good gear from them. If you never bring them along to dungeons and they dont level up they are also easier to beat. The only woman you can duel is Mona. But everyone else can be debate dueled instead. Winning raises affection by the way.

How do you counter that? Sometimes she just insta gibs me into the next plane of existence. Even on full health (234 HP + 40 Armor). Every other encounter, even bosses aren't this devastating
>>
>>4278043
Don't worry about raising affection with guys. As long as you keep whatever girl you want to romance above them in affection or deny their date events they simply won't factor in. Though to be honest a lot of the level 1 and 2 events with the dudes give some insight on the lore and they are not bad friends to interact with. Just don't go to level 3 events by Winter, those are all undeniably romantic and are necessary for romance endings.
>Rebecca not having a route
First of, this game doesn't have "routes". And secondly what do you mean? Rebecca is a love interest. She has a marriage ending like almost every other character with an affection bar.

>>4278045
If you are solo you just need to be leveled enough to shrug it off or kill her first. It's a bit of RNG either way. If you have allies, just hope they get hit instead of you. Nina can also heal. Some character have stun moves. Pretty much the only thing Ze is good for.

Shut up, it's time to kick doors down, because everyone who said it couldn't be done can get bent now!
Persona 3 Portable (and also the femC mod for P3R) now have completely reworked anime cutscenes with Kotone in them. The mod is finally finisheed.
https://gamebanana.com/mods/532448
Follow the instructions and download whatever version you prefer (English dub or Jap dub with or without subtitles in both cases). They are upscaled and actually better than the ones in FES, which is like a double middle finger to maleMC.
Here are all the cutscenes if you wanna watch them as is.
EN dub:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoIzBpk2sNM
JP dub:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3YVuc7WttY

These crazy people even created a completely original opening movie for the route (optional). Of course it doesn't compare to a big budget OP, but goddamn the effort. And more importantly Kotone doesnt have to share it with Makoto.

>>4278363
So in case someone wants to know what mods to pick for P3P aside from this new cutscene mod, here is my modlist. I beat the game with it, so it's most likely gonna work.
Essential:
0. Every Persona mod on Reload II requires the basic Persona modding tool, so just get that first.
1. The sapphic mod. Adds the other SEES girls as romance options for femC. Aigis was the only canonical yuri option in the unmodded game.
2. The Kotone/Liz romance restoration mod. It really only changes a little bit towards the final Elizabeth event where Kotone and her basically sleep with each other. The original US version censored it and made it more ambiguous.
3. Bust-ups from the 25th anniversary. No offense, but the original Kotone sprites are hella ugly. The 25th anniversary sprites they made are absolutely beautiful. They replace all other femC sprites, no exception.
4. Localization fixes. Self-explanatory.
5. Skill Fusion Spells. They are taken from FES and they should have been in the game from the start.
6. Chihiro for femC replaces the old couple social link with Chihiro, rewritten to be a yuri option for femC. It has some issues, so if you want it anyway look carefully at the instructions and comments.
7. Improved rescuing. Believe me this will be convenient.

Everything else is optional. Pretty much just improved models, audio etc.
Enjoy Gaysona 3.

I still remember people in this very thread insisting modders would never be able to do cutscenes or voices and the project would always be a clunky unfinished mod. Joke's on them!
>>
>>4278467
Obviously it's intended to be replayed several times. It's about collecting all the endings and literally has a NG+ shop that will give you permanent bonuses with currency you earn from achievements.
I don't think the first playthrough makes achieving most things totally impossible, but getting first place in tournaments or getting the high level profession endings or even the True Ending first try is unlikely.
>>
>>4278468
I don't think anybody could have predicted how above and beyond these modders went though. Getting serious animation talent to do this stuff is rare, even for high profile mods.
>>
I'm personally against mods for two reasons:
It encourages developers to release games on a dogshit state because the fans will fix them; you're dependent on the community's godwill to get something decent out of your $70 purchase.
Second, and now talking from a yuri standpoint, it encourages developers not bothering with actual yuri content for the same reasons as the above, the equivalent of no one making maintext stories "because fans will make doujins".
>>
>>4278595
Are you seriously suggesting Atlus would be more inclined to add a female protagonist + yuri options if there weren't mods to do so? That's crazy.
>>
>>4278597
Atlus shouldn't be rewarded for removing the female MC or for focusing on the het audience.

Everything you say here stinks of concernfagging and lies. You just want something to complain about. Your own second example of doujins proves that your argument makes literally no sense. No manga or anime in the existence of Japan has ever not included yuri because some doujin artists will draw a yuri doujin you anal bead sucker.

You are that braindead moron who last time claimed that pirating games supports companies (even though they literally make their games worse just to prevent piracy) and that it somehow encourages them to make less yuri for some retarded reason. You will find any reason to shit yourself.

>>4278621
Far be it from me to give that scumsucker anything to chew on, but that's not entirely true. There are some games that are only worth playing because of mods or are even treated as a mod basis by certain communities. I'm not saying that all or most of their audience would buy the game for mods, but let's take Europa Universalis IV as an example. That's an okay 4X game by Paradox. Their usual mid release. But people are legitimately buying EUIV only to play the full conversion mods that are actually excellent and better than anything Paradox themselves made. I have seen plenty of people who sighed and buyed EUIV just because the mods are actually good games.

We are definitely at a point in gaming culture where modders are skilled enough to attract people to games. The retard is wrong about the cause and effect, but yeah, some people will get P3R exclusively because of the full femC conversion mod once its out. However, if you got problems with Atlus, just pirate it.
>>

>>
>>4278749
Holy shit /v/tardation levels are off the charts. Begone you brain amputated tourist.
>>
>>4278748
The funny thing is that Paradox and some other studios who have such intense modding communities literally copy and integrate stuff from mods into their new releases. They learn from modders how to make their games better.
If we followed that logic, the more big attention femC mods there are, the more devs will realize how needed such a feature is.
>>
>>4278752
Yeah obviously. Mods being so popular shows there is a market for that feature, so if you want to make money you incorporate it into your game.
Paradox has embraced that to an exceptional degree, but they are by no means the only ones that pay attention to modding trends. Its just common sense to look for what the customer wants.

>>4278744
I can attest to that. I only played certain games because of the romance mods the community provided.

That's pretty damn standard for /u/ especially. For a long time modding was the only way we could get any yuri into games. It's not a new phenomenon. All these old DnD games had such mods and romance modules.

I know you can just reject him in the base game, but I love that someone made a mod to just delete the option completely.

I'd disagree if you could pirate the games, but Sega (and Atlus because they're owned by them) use Denuvo, so you gotta pay this cabal of hetshitters and support their haremshit fantasies, so honestly fuck the mods until Sega/Atlus stops the denuvo shit
Anything that requires you to pay for hetshit instead of full yuri doesn't belong here
If Hetsona 3 and paying hetshitters belongs here, subtext like the Revue VN and others belongs more, but the idea is yuri games thread is only for full yuri maintext games, not hetshit with mods that requires you to support harem pandering
>>
>>4278744
>However, if you got problems with Atlus, just pirate it.
Denuvo. Can't pirate Sega/Atlus shit. This is the problem. Everything would be better if the games could be pirated
>>
>>4278791
You are literally the same idiot, why are you samefagging? Piracy protections get cracked in literal weeks every time moorn. I can play any Sega game pirated right now, so stop boring us with your skill issue.

>>4278792
>>4278793
Hello again samefagger. Try to educate yourself before you embarrass yourself again.
>>
>>4278827
NTA but Denuvo doesn't and P3R still isn't cracked.
>>
>>4278792
I can't believe you retard managed to fail this hard twice, but because I pity you I will explain this one more time.
P3P is a 14 year old game. The remaster is the same game and also over a year old by now. Both games had femC from the get go and two canonical yuri options. The mod that was posted added anime cutscenes for the femC. Literally nothing you say here is in any way connected to what I said.
So why don't you put a bullet into that empty skull of yours so you can finally feel like you got something other than a void in your head?
>>
>>4278828
Stop lying. Shit protected by Denuvo gets cracked really fast every time. They are literally competing for DAYS of not being cracked. The companies are shelling out insane money and make their games worse just so the piracy can be delayed by an extra week. Ironically giving players incentive not to buy the fucking game until its cracked, because it's literally worse.

I just played P3R pirated last month. Don't tell me what can't be played.
>>
>>4278831
Weird thing to lie about, nee-san.
>>
>>4278834
I know. I have no idea why the idiot lied about Denuvo being somehow uncrackable when it literally gets cracked every time within weeks of any release.
>>
>>4278836
I wish I was lying about Denuvo. But it's you who is lying because you don't know what you're talking about and wanted to defend the mods without knowing people still gotta pay for
the hetshit game to use them
>>4278829
P3P for PC also has denuvoshit. Come back when these mods don't require paying a retarded company that only included yuri once to compensate P3P being barebones as fuck and never again. A company that refuses to even ackowledge their female protagonist in anything that isn't a shitty chibi game (Persona Q2)
Fuck Atlus. No yuri fan should pay them
>>
>>4278839
>Denuvo is uncrackable!!!
>literally all games with Denuvo get cracked
>don't recommend mods for hetshit games!!!

Nothing you say will ever be worthwhile. Get outta here.
>>
>>4278836
>it literally gets cracked every time within weeks of any release.
Why do you lie like that?
>>
>>4278842
No denuvo games are cracked. Certainly not Reload or Portable. Yuri fans shouldn't have to give their money to people who will use it to develop more hetshit harem and 0 yuri. That money can go to actual yuri devs and games so they make more yuri
I don't know why you keep lying about the games being cracked.
>the games are cracked and you can pirate them. Trust me sis.
Fuck off with lies that don't pass a simple google search
>>
>>4278836
If you downloaded a "crack" for P3R you should check your pc for malware.
>>
>>4278847
Shut the fuck up already. You constantly change your argument. You don't give a shit about yuri, you are constantly moving goalposts.
>>
>>4278850
My argument has always been "these mods are worthless because the games can't be pirated and yuri fans shouldn't give their money to a company that doesn't want to make any yuri"
Why should yuri fans give money to support the creation of hetshit? It's better if they go to actual yuri devs and games
>>
>>4278852
What about shut the fuck up do you not get? We are talking about a game with yuri. Period. no ifs, no buts, not goalpost shifts. P3P is on topic, is relevant and will never be a problem. You will not stop people here from buying it or from modding it or from talking about it.
Get your /v/shitter ass off this board. It's super obvious you don't give a shit about yuri, you just want to complain about denuvo and AAA publishers. Disappear.
>>
>>4278853
So we go from
>denuvo can be cracked
to
>who cares if it can't. Complaining about Atlus only making hetshit and harems and no more female MCs is /v/
Nice to see who is moving the goalpost. A 10+ years old game is no excuse to pay Atlus, sorry
Pay actual yuri devs instead. Why should yuri fans support people who only make hetshit?
It's you who doesn't care about yuri and thus why you don't care if yuri fans money is used to make hetshit and literally 0 yuri. What yuri has Atlus made since P3P?
>>
>>4278860
You literally can't read. From the beginning I corrected you that we are talking about a game with yuri after you had a schizophrenic breakdown about a game nobody talked about. Then you were told repeatdly to shut up with your schizop ranting about how nobody should buy yuri games or mod them because you hate a company. Get a fucking grip. Or better yet, lose it and fall back into the dump your crawled out of.
>>
>>4278863
A game with yuri that you can't play without paying retards who make hetshit and no yuri
You keep ignoring why I hate Fatlus to make it look like it's irrational hate when it's pretty relevant
"nobody should buy yuri games" I never said that. I said people here shouldn't pay a company that has made it clear they'll use the money for more hetshit. Fuck offr and stop being angry that someone in the yuri board doesn't want people supporting hetshit creators
>>
>>4278865
Nobody. Cares.
This is why I call you a /v/tard. Your rants are off-topic and irrelevant. It doesn't matter what other games a dev makes. You fucking moron. Is it a yuri game? Buy it. No ifs or buts.
If you have some mental illness you need cured do it somewhere else. This is the last time I will respond to your retarded posts.
>>
>>4278871
He's talking about Persona 3 portable, which without mods includes female MC as an option, and allows her to romance Aigis and Elizabeth
But also, she's been so ignored outside of Portable and Q2 that no adaptation features her
Manga? Male MC. Anime? Male MC. Any continuation that references Persona 3? (like the P4 Arena games where several P3 characters show up) The P3 MC is male with no female option.
>>
The only /v/tardation here is >>4278749, and anyone acting like calling out Atlus for ignoring their P3P female MC and never again featuring her (outside of a shitty 3DS spinoff Persona Q2) and only making hetshit and no more yuri are wrong to do so in a yuri board
Acting like it's all insane people crying "muh soggy knee" and female MC shouldn't have existed is the real /v/ behavior. Of course people in a yuri board will call out how they abandoned the yuri audience after some crumbs in the shittiest Persona 3 port in existence and never again did that
>>
>>4278873
Im almost sure he's the same retard who shills het harem shows with 0.1% "yuri" in the general.

>>
>>4278874
>Manga? Male MC. Anime? Male MC.
That's kind of par-the-course for video games with gender-selectable protags. That every spin-off game and remake has totally ignored her, with the singular exception of Q2, is far less typical though.
>>
>>4278890
Except there was a manga adaptation with femC in it. It's also not weird at all. Most games ignore any extra content in their spin-offs or adaptations. Just like Persona 5's spin-offs dont acknowledge Kasumi's existence from Royal.

It's a pointless and retarded topic that has no relevance to this thread. If the game is on-topic it is. If you have to bring in other media to falsely discredit the game you already lost.
The very idea that a publisher doesn't release other yuri content is beyond irrelevant to whether the yuri game they did make is worth buying. What ass-backwards logic. You aren't paying for het games or het manga or het anime, you are paying for the yuri game. Period.
>>
>>4278892
And when you pay who gets your money and what do they use it for? More yuri or hetshit
For fatlus the answer it's clear:
If you think it's off-topic to mention this in a yuri board and people shoudln't care, you're a hetshitter who doesn't belong, or extremely simple minded to the point you think P3P exists in a vacuum and somehow giving it money isn't giving money to hetshitters who will never make more yuri
>>4278887
>game made by hetshitters who never made more yuri gets a mod
>people point out how you can't enjoy these mods without giving money to the hetshitters and the piracy argument doesn't work here because the game isn't and can't be cracked
>defending giving money to hetshit devs in yuri board
Do you know where you are?. Why do you think people on the yuri board don't give a shit about Fatlus not making more yuri?
>>
>>4278898
Your retarded arguments were already completely trashed the last three times you tried to force your mental illness on this thread. It's a level of subhuman brainfarts that is honestly astounding.

Nakatani Nio made YagaKimi, one of the most popular yuri manga ever. Now she is releasing a non-yuri manga. Do we now have to stop buying YagaKimi?
McDonalds makes chicken burgers even though you only like cheeseburgers. Better not buy any cheeseburgers because you are financing chicken burgers!
Following your logic, if a publisher made het games in the past and now exclusively makes games with yuri, you SHOULD buy the het games, because you are supporting the creation of more yuri by giving them money.

Literally every major game publisher does not exclusively make yuri games and never will. That is normal. Your paper thin stance that just acts as a cover for your personal vendetta can be torn apart from literally every direction.

You only get one more warning. This is the yuri game thread. People can, will and should talk about yuri games and you suggesting people should not play, enjoy or buy yuri games is extremely anti-/u/ in essence. You are trying to suppress people's options based on irrelevant off-topic nonsense. You are the problem.

TW:Warhammer 3 for Windows hasn't been cracked in 2 years because it's such a pain in the ass that it's easier to get people to install Linux to play it. The Quarry came out in 2022 and was only uploaded to trackers in 2023 after it removed Denuvo. Same thing happened with SoulCalibur VI and the Apollo Justice trilogy (released on trackers only after Denuvo got taken out). Latest Prince of Persia hasn't been cracked on Windows. I could go on, but I think you get the idea. The autistic Denuvo crackers aren't around anymore.

BW's statement on Blood Magic was the straw (more like a fucking haystack, actually) that broke the camel's back for me and has killed any and all interest in this. In fact, I regret buying Origins back and the day and foolishly getting invested with the franchise in the first place.
When I finally get a new PC, i'm going to get BG3 and forget DA even exists. Thank the Gods that /u/ options are more common in RPGs nowadays.

Bioware could finally give us a butch lesbian knight in shining armour LI and I still wouldn't be interested.
I wan't to play an RPG and not a mediocre action game with occasional (and very limited) dialog options.
I want the option to play as an evil/anti-hero character and not be forced to be a goody-goody two-shoes that makes Marvel quips all day.
>>
>>4279102
why is the mc not being able to do blood magic such a big deal, you can still play a mean character
>>
>>4279103
An entire school of magic is now forever barred to us because the devs find it uncomfortable. That's too much bs for me to handle.
And I like playing evil characters. Especially dark wizards/sorcerers/necromancers.
Also, I believe that morality can't exist without without free will. So if you take away all the evil choices, the good "choices" are meaningless.

BW has just made too many decisions over the course of the series that has ruffled my feathers. The Blood Magic thing is just the final step too far for me.

Resurrecting your loved ones isn't evil, nee-san. It's a really wholesome way of saying 'not even death will keep us apart'.

>>
>>4279084
No, they just literally copy-pasted the exact same interactions between the male and female PC. It was obviously a game made for a male protag and they just lazily added the female option last minute because they realized a model swap would change nothing about their blank self-insert.

Vashj was pretty gay (in the afterlife as well). Legion had Valtrois and Stellagosa who were pretty shippy. There's certainly a fair number of random lesbian quest givers, but as for big names... Eonar and Elune had some sort of thing going on per one of the Dragonflight lore doodad books. I don't think any of the really big name female characters are.

Yeah, it's a shame. I'm mourning the loss of potential. The potential of an argument with the LI and her either telling you to stop being evil or joining you after you potentially manipulate her.
I was actually pretty excited that the location they aimed for was the city of blood mages. But I guess we can't play bloody evil lesbians.
>>
>>4279374
I'd rather not have it than have it be there and mean nothing. It was especially retarded in DA2 and it's bound to be even more retarded in a game where you're using the thing that fucks with the fade when you're supposed to be connected to the fade or whatever.
>>
>>4279376
The ability to RP in DA has certainly been gutted. Apart from bring back multiple races, the DA series has regressed with every game.

>>4279377
That's purely the writers fault for going in that direction. You'd might be fine with the baby being thrown out with the bathwater, but many others are not.
>>
>>4279384
It's complicated. A lot of CRPGs really struggle with writing the "evil option" because they can't afford to make an entirely different game for the evil branch and too often the evil PC is just a chaotic stupid idiot kicking puppies for fun and then following the main quest despite it making no sense anymore just because there's nothing left to do.

Streamlining the RP choices into multiple options that can all logically be headed towards the same goal can be a superior approach if it at least makes the 'renegade' path worth playing.

But I'm not intending to get into the new DA anyway. I'm tired of them.
>>

You don't even necessarily need to make a completely different branch, though. Origins handled it well enough, I think.
Being an evil character doesn't have to mean being a murder hobo. You could still save the day and all that jazz. It just means doing it with a different method and motivation than the Good path.
>>
Nobody cares, still. It is not worth making extremly in depth evil paths for the 5% of psychopaths who mistake being edgy for being cool. A game has a given narrative and you can choose how to react to it on the micro-level. Dont expect to influence the macro-level. You can still play an asshole, you just can't use some random magic branch.

It's literally whiny children going "Yes, you have 100 options to be whatever you want, but it doesnt have the one extra option I care about, so roleplaying is dead and everything sucks!"

How do you losers function with games that have premade characters? Do you just collapose into a crying mess? The only thing that actually matters for this thread is that all female party members are romancable by the female protagonist. Get your snob posts out of here.
>>

Origins handled it by just not handling it, though. In the context of the story they're trying to tell being a blood mage is the murder hobo path. It's like complaining that there's no dragon shapeshifter class.

More RP options are better. Period. The permanent removal of allowing the player to use blood magic because of devs own limitations is a legitimate grievance and no amount "stop whining!" will change that.
People should be able to play a good character because they want to be a good character, not because they're forced to be. Like was said earlier, the removal of evil choices ruins the point of roleplaying.

You'd think the success of BG3 would have made Bioware pull their finger out, but it seems they're are dead set in turning DA into Mass Effect Andromeda with swords.

The extra weeby Rune Factory also got officially announced for Spring 2025. It'll have romance, which probably means it has f/f romance.

The official website says you can romance any of the candidates. So no reason to believe they'll regress after RF5.

>get the extra boss fights in Volcano Princess
>not aiming for Lebsa, as I did her in the previous playthrough and wanted to see someone else (namely Mona)
Something tells me I'm not doing things correctly.
>>
>>4279488
The devs literally said they won't let further pcs use blood magic because it's too evil.
It's pretty obvious from this point forwards Bioware will only allow us to be goody-goodies. And no, the very rare occasional bit of sass from the PC doesn't cut it as "evil".
>>
>>4279529
I don't give a shit what you can make up in your head. The point is that roleplaying does not ever require being a cartoon villain.
>>
>>4279520
If you are incapable of leveling all girls affection and just pick which one you boost in the final month to get her ending you really aren't playing smart.
Also picking Lebsa as your lord twice makes no sense. Just pick Gwyneth if you aren't going to pick Lebsa again for her second ending.
>>
>>4279529
What you want are more yuri VNs.
No, wait, hear me out. VNs are allowed to have "bad ends" where big commercial RPGs generally aren't, meaning bad ends that abort the story early so the big fancy climax is never reached, thus allowing you to do all the stupid asshole things you want, get a consequence, and then go back to the 'real' story.
Downside is I'm not sure how many yuri VNs at the moment actually allow for the protagonist to do evil things if she wants to. Clearly there's a gap in that market.
>>
>>4279530
>The point is that roleplaying does not ever require being a cartoon villain.
It does require choice, though. And not just different ways of saying "yes".
>>
>>4279549
The fact that your idea of "choice" is a binary between doing the actual thing you are supposed to and eating babies shows your lack of imagination, not the devs.
>>
>>4279531
>Also picking Lebsa as your lord twice makes no sense.
I wanted to get the Ultimate Knight achievement. I'm not really minmaxing and optimizing things.

The FInal Prize Is Soup is out
>>
>>4279552
You're gonna burn out if you keep going like that. If you make it to Gwyneth after all, please keep in mind that she has a poly ending with Mona, so you actually level both.
>>
>>4279534
>VNs are allowed to have "bad ends"
Typical bad end in yuri VN is not about being evil player but one of the girls dying or marrying a guy and getting a kid with him, so no check your facts straight.
I would welcome more evil obsessed MC playthrough in your typical western RPGs like we got in BG3 as possibility but lets be real, most devs don't want to add such things and forces you to play as a good guy, hell you can brutally murder many people in some games and still they force you to act like little good shit in most important choices after cause if not you can't be a hero anymore.
In a way I liked Fallout 1 and 2 which gave you free reign of what you wanted to do and be selfish if wanted.
>>
>>4279443
We won.
>>
>>4279551
Hogwash. The devs have been stripping away rp choices with every new game, making the PC more and defined. Heck, they only brought back race selection at the last hour of DAI's development and even then only with reluctance.

>eating babies
If I was RPing an evil wizard and performing a dark ritual that involves the consumption of a fetus, you'd have to stop them from pulling out a napkin and asking for a knife and fork.
>>
>>4279559
99% of people don't want or care to play an evil character. The worst it gets is pragmatic and that usually is always an option. Like you don't want to help the dying old lady because her side-quest is tedious? Don't. You don't have the money to pay for some slave's freedom? Either let them stay a slave or kill the slavers. If you are pragmatic you will often make quite cruel choices, but ones that you can easily justify just because that's not your business.
Evil on the other hand is going out of your way to try and make things worse for others and yourself. This is what retards like you don't get, general morality and alignment in RPGs sees evil as actually EVIL. Like Sauron evil. Not lawyer evil. Understand the difference.

>>4279562
>defined PC means no roleplaying
You are that moron... no wonder your arguments are so shit. I will give you the same response as always, a blank slate is not required for roleplaying or an RPG in general. Final Fantasy VII is a proper RPG and roleplaying game and Cloud is anything but a self-insert you can make a character sheet for.
Get over it bitch.

Really, bringing Cloud into this? I mean I got your reference and all but you couldn't use a more relevant reference?

>>4279574
Yeah, usually good options give more xp so I tend to pick that option because I like numbers going up. Especially when it involves the LIs interest in you. Playing evil is fun, not just childish evil like stealing the lolis lolly but deeply corrupted evil akin to summoning eldritch horros upon the land.
>>
>>4279575
So? That doesn't excuse developer from regressing the series with each passing game.
>>
>>4279529
Good. Evil players are weird.
>>
>>4279579
>So?
So investing into content that nearly nobody sees just becomes a bullet point on a box. It is almost never worth it.
>regressing the series with each passing game
This is just in your head retard.
>>
>>4279580
And goody-goodies are wet blankets.

>>4279582
With that logic, devs shouldn't even bother finish making any games at all.
>This is just in your head retard.
Losing roleplaying options in a roleplaying game is regression, dummy.
>>
>>4279578
>not just childish evil like stealing the lolis lolly
But you should be able to do this while summoning eldritch horrors.
>>
>>4279586
Making one good playthrough that's fleshed out is better than making 4 half-assed inconsistent routes. At least a chunk of people finish one playthrough. At that's not evil players.
>losing blah blah blah
No moron. Your preferences and your focus doesnt matter. Making MC character voiced is a huge improvement for a lot of people, so that is not a regression. DA2 had no race select, but DA:I brought it back and Veilguard also has it. Graphics? Better. Amount of love interests for lesbians? More. Amount of content, map detail and so on? More.
No, I don't give a shit about your predictable response. Nobody cares what (You) want out of the game. Objectively a lot of people see these things as improvements. You have to stop pretending your standards are actually the only ones that exist.
>>
>>4279591
I bet BG3 must have overwhelmed you.
Honestly, you should just stick to the JRPGs, since it's clear you don't understand why WRPG fans would take issue with Bioware's decision to reduce the amount roleplaying options.
>>
>>4279320
That's kind of weird when you consider how otherwise gritty the series pretends to be. The Marvelification continues, I guess. Same with how the most evil love interests you ever get are just morally gray rogues.
>>
>>4279592
>can't come up with any counter arguments so starts shitting on games that prove he is wrong
Classic.
>>
>>4279592
I blame console players who don't want to have any options, just linear shit being lead by devs by hand what to do next in a way the devs wanted to tell the "story" they wanted usually with fixed MC and nothing more.

>>4279595
Wow, sure stinks like /v/ in here.
>>
>>4279593
What's really odd is that Bioware's more than happy to change and/or retcon the lore just to fit with the current media they're working on at the time and yet they've doubled down on the blood magic thing.

>>4279594
Hey, i've enjoyed plenty of JRPGs.

>>4279595
>I blame console players who don't want to have any options
Well, don't. There are plenty of RPGs on consoles. And, in my opinion, DA Origins and DOS2 were successful ports.

I find bizarre how a board that is perfectly fine with RPG Maker projects or ebihime three hours long VNs suddenly talks about high standards.

Don't reply the /v/tards. They can barely hold themselves back from ranting about "console peasants".

This is a /u/ thread not a thread discussing any of this shit. Everyone here needs to shut up.

This is all off-topic and should be deleted. Like goddamn, stop whining about irrelevant shit already. This entire conversation is because of something completely yuri irrelevant like a fucking magic skill tree in one game. This retardation is unbelievable.

The problem comes from /v/ finishing its transition into a purely political board so the people who just want to talk about videogames are migrating to any videogame thread on any board, /u/ included.

This is going to be just as worthless as Ryza. Atelier got only more het over time and more fanservicey to boot.
>>
>>4279631
Goddamn it, there is literally a board exclusively for RPGs, /vrpg/. Just go there if you have to argue about pointless RPG mechanics.
>>
>>4279634
/vrpg/ not only is a very slow board but 99% of the threads there are worthless; basically take /v/, replace the politics threads with Trails of Cold Steel Rean posts and you got /vrpg/. So of course people interested on discussing RPGs would rather avoid that board as much as they avoid /v/.

Honestly the only way the yuri game threads would be free of off-topic posting would be making you unable to post if your ip range has browsed or posted on /v/ even once, but I doubt it's something easy to implement.
>>
>>4279637
Wouldn't your solution also prevent you from posting? You sure sound familiar with what happens on /v/.
>>
>>4279637
Be the change you wanna see. Post about Dragon Age there and keep dragging people with you. Eventually you will have enough people to overthrow the harem weebs.

Either way, it's fine to talk about RPGs with /u/ content here, just keep it focused on what matters. I believe in animal training, so we can get /v/tards under control too.
>>
>>4279638
And only posting hate for /v/ without mentioning anything yuri related is off-topic too. Peculiar behaviour indeed. I guess that imouto had a bad experience or something. We should hug her and make her feel better with the power of love and forgiveness.
>>
>>4279638
Oh, Absolutely; I'm just pointing out the only true solution.
>>
>>4279639
You seriously underestimate Reanposting; it literally managed to get the moderation team to give up on the board.
>>
>>4279644
So the board has no mods anymore? All the more reason to spam better RPGs and keep talking about f/f romance there.
>>
>>4279645
Those threads would be flooded and drowned by ha ha posts.
I think you're trying to bait me with unrelated posts into getting banned. Which is pointless because ban evasion is a thing.

So go ahead.
>>
>>4279652
I'm telling you to fuck off to a different board. Nothing baity about it. I literally just went there, and lo and behold there is an active Dragon Age thread on /vrpg/ where they even positively talk about Veilguard. Is this why you aren't going there? Because they aren't as retardedly negativer as /v/?
Either way we are done here. I showed you the door. It's you people's time to go through it.

The only pairings in that series that got canon are het. Just like every other Atelier game.
If anything, randomly expecting there to be real yuri is the insane stance and should be mocked until proof comes out. That's not doomposting, that's as obvious as pointing out the next Trails or Tales Of game will be het. So yeah, wait for more info on potential yuri. Forever.

>>

>>4280021
Because werewolf furry shit is extremely popular among straight girls, especially in Japan lately. It was just a single jab, but you freaks get so hung up over whether she will date the fucking animal or not, when the overarching point is the usual sexualization of girls, the literal negative evidence of any strong relationships with other girls and thus yuri and the undeniably hetness of the franchise.

I am annoyed that idiots are posting off-topic trailers here and take the bait of some rando claiming with absolutely zero evidence that the next game will be yuri. You shouldnt post head canons here. Post a trailer that actually implies yuri and until then don't post anything about the game at all.

So you're just freaking out over nothing. Got it.

>>4280026
No, (You) are freaking out over nothing. You are acting like this game will have yuri content when there is nothing. By the rules of this board and thread you are only to post yuri content. Not non-yuri content you hope will become yuri content.

>>4279818
From a gameplay standpoint and judging them sorely as action games Crymachina, Valkyrie Drive and Samurai Maiden are mediocre at the very best, on the same category as games like the Senran Kagura games or the Onechanbara games, which is what anon is complaining about.
BUT, and this is the core of the issue, due to their gameplay-focused nature, action games aren't an appropriate genre for yuri so a "decent yuri action game" is an oxymoron. RPGs and Visual Novels work because they're writing and characterization-focused, and yuri is a romance genre after all. Action games? not at all. You're asking apples to an orange tree.
>>
>>4280065
When people say they want a decent action yuri game they literally just want a yuri game with a combat system that's deeper than a kiddie pool.

That's literally it. It's no different from how action games have het romance in their stories.
>>
>>4280067
No they don't; it's a single anon on this thread the one asking for that, when Crymachina and Samurai Maiden's commercial success proves that the yuri fanbase doesn't care about "muh deep", "muh epic active skill trees", just about the game being an effective and charming yuri story.
Like with the RPG mechanics discussion early on this thread, you're absolutely missing the point.
>>
>>4280026
Why? Is it a yuri game?
>>
>>4280071
Not all yuri fans have zero gameplay standards.
I want to actually enjoy both the story *and* the gameplay in a yuri action game for once.
>>
>>4280076
Yuri and "deep gameplay mechanics" are mutually exclusive, because both the games and their audiences have completely different expectations and want completely different things from the game.

You have plenty of good action games to play if you want good gameplay so hard.
>>
>>4280081
If there can be thousands of good games with a heterosexual romance or love interest in them, then Yuri games should also have the luxury of having good gameplay in their own right.
>>
>>4280058
>schizoid headcanon fanfics
If this is how you feel about yuri, you don't belong here.
>>
>>4280086

Does not compute.
>>
>>4280086
>If there can be thousands of good games with a heterosexual romance or love interest in them
Sorry to pop your bubble but good action games with deep gameplay mechanics don't have those either; maybe a thirty seconds teasing cutscene. Because romance narrative isn't their goal, their focus and their purpose.

You're yearning for something that doesn't exist, even on the het side of the spectrum.
>>

>>
>>4280065
I can't say I agree with any of the takes in this discussion
Let's take Samurai Maiden for example, you could have the exact same game story-wise but with the boring musou gameplay revamped; it wouldn't take a lot to make playing it not feel like a slog.
Crymachina I thought was fairly decent, some glaring issues sure but ultimately it would've been pretty fun if not for the poor balancing (things being way too easy or way too hard).
Point being, we've come close to a good yuri action game, there's no reason to believe someone won't be able to take the next step in the future. The "real gameplay intersected by VN segments" is a solid formula in my opinion, specially if you get to choose when the to take in the story like with Crymachina. Slot in the gameplay from one of those thousands of nonyuri good action games (I can't claim to know many of those but let's go with it) and it's a home run.
>>
>>4280218
>it wouldn't take a lot to make playing it not feel like a slog
If you think the problem is so easily resolved, then why do you think the gameplay came out being so "bad"? Surely you don't think the developers had a fetish for disappointing you.

Either it's not that easy to make a "good" game or people wildly disagree on what "good" is, making it impossible to make a game that /u/ will say is valid.
>>
>>4280218
Crymachina isn't close to be a good game. it's as mediocre as the usual Marvelous effort.
It won't happen because making good action games is very difficult and requires talented developers, and there is no reason to hire such people when your game's focus and selling point is the non-gameplay part (the yuri).
The gameplay is just a vehicle for the yuri, not the reason to play the game.
>>
>>4280233
And of course I mean "compared to the usual Marvelous effort", I'm not saying that it was made by Marvelous. I know that Crymachina was made by a different developer, the same people behind Crystar.
>>
If you made the MC of any of those "good action het games" female, /u/'d say the writing is shit and the romance is subtext-tier and thus, doesn't belong in this thread which is only for maintext super yuri games. Turns out the barebones characterization and plot of such gameplay-focused games doesn't work for romance fans who want solid romance and characterization. Thus, why most reccomended action games here put gameplay as a secondary priority with the main being characters and their relationships. And why RPGs and visual novels, where long segments of dialogue and story are expected are ideal genres since they allow for proper romance and character development
>>
>>4280236
>/u/'d say
*the thread police schizo (singular) would say
With that said, I’m not a mentally ill gameplayfag so such games would always be secondary to those where yuri is the focus
>>
>>4280218
>The "real gameplay intersected by VN segments" is a solid formula in my opinion
Not at all; it's an inherently contradictory formula and that's why no one has bothered with it one way or the other.

>Players who want a gameplay-focused experience don't want to be forced to go through long "talking heads" segments before they're allowed to play the game. That's why gameplay-focused action games are very light on narrative and at best have a few short cutscenes between stages.
>Players who want heavy narrative and characterization don't want to spend long times hitting a wall, having to learn and master a billion gameplay mechanics so they can finally beat a boss before they're allowed to keep going through the story.

The closest would be Nier Automata, and gameplay-wise that game was a step down from the usual Platinum Games title (RPG mechanics are almost always anathema to combat mechanics, as shown by Dark Souls) and at the same time its narrative was very "to-the-point", without VN segments and mostly thought dialog in the middle of the exploration and the missions, with the consequence that characterization fell flat for certain characters (A2 being the biggest offender).
>>
>>4280229
Samurai Maiden felt like a very lazy and "corporate" game with no passion put into it, they just shipped whatever was playable then cashed in on the swimsuit DLCs. I appreciate they decided to appeal to the yuri crowd with this one but I would be very surprised if making a "good game" was ever a concern for any of the designers involved.
>>
>>4280239
What the hell are you talking about? There are plenty of games with extensive VN segments between action sections. A game that is actually on-topic for this thread unlike all your other shit, Fate/Extella has absurdly in depth VN segments. That's a Musou game and it works just fine.

>>4280240
Shut the fuck up with this /v/tard shit. How mamy of you /v/ermin need to be silenced this thread?
>>
>>4280240
And it was /u/'s GOTY 2022 and a very good seller for its developer, proving that the audience doesn't particularly care about the game part being competent or not.
>>
>>4280241
>There are plenty of games with extensive VN segments between action sections.
They are; I never said otherwise, but their gameplay part is very barebones because the developer's focus is on the narrative, not the game parts. You named a musou, which is a perfect example of a braindead genre.

What doesn't exist because it's a contradictory concept is "a GOOD game with VN segments".
>>
>>4280245
You dont get to decide what a good game is. Extella was great. Your entire argument is fucked now. Too bad, so sad.

A blouse that acts like the boobs are inside a bag is very fanservicey, and that kind of fanservice is aimed at het males.
Werewolves are stock het love interests, like vampires
Yumia's smile on the promotional art is associated to NTR due to a certain (interestingly enough) Ryza doujin and certain NTR games adopting it.

So basically all the signs about AY being hetshit are there.

I'd like to play a game with both good action and good yuri, and given the posts here I assume somebody else does too. That's two people!
I understand your point, and I agree to a certain degree, but the market is not so easily predicted. All the time people make unique and niche games trying to break new ground, sometimes they fail, but other times they find success with an audience no one even knew existed.
I don't think it's likely someone will make a masterpiece on both fronts. I do think it's possible someone might look at all these existing yuri action games and think "what if we put the teensiest bit of effort into making this a fun experience?"

Extella's game part was absolutely grating and actually dragged the narrative down.

>>

Indie games break new ground all the time, and most of them are hit and miss because a good idea on paper doesn't make it a good game in practice.
What you want will never happen because both audiences have no overlap, want completely different things when it comes to videogames and at the end the effort placed on one side of the equation would simply mean diminishing returns to the project as a whole.

>>
>>4280290
Do you think the thread can only discuss one game at a time or something? Chill out. The atelier series has been yuri-coded for forever and them finally taking that plunge for real would be exciting.
>>
>>4280291
Not a single Atelier game had yuri in it and the only canon relationships in them are het. The dev made more than clear by now that they dont do yuri. We are not here to discuss your delusions. If they release any fucking info or footage that remotely hints at yuri (although it will go nowhere as all Atelier games before) you can start spitting your retarded theories. Until then shove it up your rectum like all other off-topic game discussions.
And you dont get to pretend that you didnt know this. It was already explained repeatedly in this thread. Enough is enough.

I am 100% convinced its all trolls. Just like the initial post that sparked all this that randomly said Atlier will be yuri.
They are feeding on the sane people as usual. And by now there are trolls on both sides just to keep it going.

Mods for crying out loud delete everyone talking about Atelier. Get this thread back on track.
>>
>>4280295
I'm excited sure but what do you want me to say? The trailer didn't even show off the bachelorettes unless I watched the wrong one. It will get talked about when it's out.
>>
>>4280295
The new rune factory trailer was pretty disappointing to me. It already felt like the playable characters felt weirdly special, and now it's confirmed they even have a backstory together. There really was nothing good about the new trailer, and it didn't confirm or disconfirm gay romances/who you can romance.
>>
>>4280302
>weirdly special
That's pretty standard. Alice in RF5 is the super special rare Earthmate who can control dragons and basically does everything.
With the extra weeb setting and artstyle I have very low expectations for both plot and bachelorettes. But again, the devs already said you can romance everyone which to me implies no gender restrictions.
>>
>>4280302
>and it didn't confirm or disconfirm gay romances/who you can romance.
Neither did the Atelier Yumia trailer and still you claimed that it would go full yuri.
>>
>>4280305
I didn't mean that the player character is special, but that the opposite gender playable character is in the game and has an important role in the story.
>>
>>4280306
>you claimed
there's more than one poster in this thread, I called that anon out for making shit up about the trailer.
>>
>>4280268
Yeah. I don’t think devs care about a meme only weird degenerates into NTR know or care about
Besides that, fanservice for males can be yuri: Valkyrie Drive, MahoAko, Samurai Maiden
Again; not saying it’ll be yuri, but saying it’s confirmed het is equally deranged and the arguments given are poor. Only the the werewolf is remotely decent and it’s countered by a second female party member
There’s simply not enough info, and both sides are being retarded. Game doesn’t belong here for now
>>
>>4280308
Why does it matter? Even on the off-chance that the player characters can romance each other, that would be optional.
>>
>>4280282
My idea of Ryza and most ateliers is that het isn’t confirmed either. Just safe and cowardly scraps for several possible pairings and don’t confirm anything
Which fair,still doesn’t belong in a thread for maintext games
>>
>>4280311
If you agree its off-topic stop talking about it and stop both-sides-ing it. Just shut up and move on.
>>
>>4280315
Ryza had explicit canon het pairings. Stop deluding yourself and move on.
>>
>>4280313
Having possibly a lot of interactions with a guy forcefully in the story is a pain in the ass regardless. I was just saying that the trailer only bothered me, didn't really hype me up.
>>
>>4280317
A y involving Ryza herself?
Or would you call a het game yuri if it had a secondary yuri pairing?
>>
>>4280316
I’ll shut up when the het shippers shut up
>>
>>4280319
Have you ever played an RF game? There are always important male characters, get over it. It's not an all-female cast. As long as you arent forced into het romance it's irrelevant.
>>
>>4280320
Irrelevant. If the only canon romantic pairings in a game are het than the only romance in the game is het. How is this a fucking hard concept to understand? Even if you bend over backwards like a total retard to pretend the game is aromantic because Ryza specifically stays single, that makes it an irrelevant to /u/ game with het romance. That is not an endorsement or worth bringing up. End of discussion.
>>
>>4280324
You're certainly an annoying poster, someone wanted to force discussion about the latest rune factory trailer, I mention that there was nothing good about it, and you're nitpicking shit now. I have played RF games, no, they never had an important male character, quite the opposite, just bachelors, and mostly ignorable at that.
>>
>>4280329
My point is you should be honest instead of pushing your het narrative
As you say the game’s lack of canon romance is enough to make it off-topic, so you don’t need to lie about it
Lack of maintext =/= het
>>
>>4280330
Why are you lying? RF5's main plot has the thief guy who keeps appearing througout and is literally necessary to unlock Ludmilla for the town and the main antagonist is a dude that everything revolves around. Even Lucas, one of the bachelors character arc is directly tied into the main story and he is repeatedly involved. If you want to use any of the most important facilities in town you will interact with nearly all the male characters.
In comparison the only actual story relevant girls are Livia and Radea. So dont give me that shit about males never being important.

You dont get to act all uppity and then just lie about shit. If you want to critisize a game find a better reason.
>>

>>
>>4280345
The thought of there being more than one idiot at your level scares me, so no, I'd rather believe it's just you. Doing shallow comparisons to pretend that the unnecessary importance of the other gender MC in this new game, that almost certainly only exists because male MC players wanted to marry the female MC, is ridiculous. I'd rather not talk about it, got taunted to talk about it, and then a retard is trying to pretend it's nothing now.

Making a game about a dude raping 200 women explicitly. But don't worry, you get 2 seconds of 2 lesbians who aren't targeted by rapist MC kissing. Game with yuri, belongs here yes? Fuck off and stop defending hetshit here because irrelevant characters are lesbians
Het with irrelevant yuri doesn't belong. Only games where the mains are yuri and yuri is the focus belong
Ryza is exclusively aromantic because Ryza doesn't get a canon love interest,.
Other characters are irrelevant and their romances don't matter
You want to shill hetshjit like Mary Skelter here because "with yuri". Kill yourself, het shill. You went mas off when you admitted irrelevant characters having irrelevant yuri scenes are an excuse to shill het garbage where the mains are het here
>>
Kuroko Saten and Uiharu means Raildex fits this "with yuri" classification. Under "with yuri" rules. Raildex is now yuri and belongs in /u/ Who cares about it being about some dude and his het harem? 3 irrelevant characters are gay, so "with yuri" so belongs here according to the Mary Skelter shill

Raildex has always been posted in /u/.....I mean i dont particularly like it but it's been done.

Fail. You are the one who decided that the lesbians in Maryskelter are irrelevant characters even though nobody said that. Your trolling style is just brainless desperation, eh?
>cant event answer a yes or no question
Atelier Ryza 3 has party members in a het romance. Party members are main characters. And I dont care about your delusional definition, those are main characters.
Because you were too cowardly to answer the yes or no question I will tell you. The answer is yes. The game objectively only has het romance. No matter how much it makes you scream and cry and throw a tantrum. Shit yourself in anger, Ryza is a het exclusive series. You are dwfending a game that only features het romance. You are not wanted here.

>>4280391
Raildex has no canon yuri couple. The existence of lesbians isnt actually yuri by itself. However, Raildex yuri art is completely fine. Too bad. Cry about it.

Sheesh, some people are hard to please...
MS2 has a canonical, zero-ambiguity lesbian couple one of which is the main character.
It has decent visuals and decent gameplay (especially if you enjoy dungeon crawlers).
The gayness of the main couple, unlike most japanese media, is taken seriously instead of being treated just like a random fetish.
MS2 is amazing and its only crime is setting the bar too high for other aspiring yuri games to compete with.

It has no yuri. The obvious reason it is off-topic. Kinda cringe you even needed to ask.
>>
>>4280426
Like MS2, then
He admitteit’s het with MC being het and yuri being irrelevant, like the het in Ryza (side characters wilk always be irrelevant, cope and seethe. Only MC and their love interest matters. This means Ryza is Aro while MS2 is putright het and any MS2 shills belong even less than Ryza shills)
>>
>>4280429
I dont think you know what anyone "admitteit's", whatever that means. MS2 exclusively features a lesbian romance however. The protagonist of that game is a girl and in said yuri romance.
So yeah... canon yuri in a yuri focused game is not the same as a franchise with no yuri whatsoever in any way.

Maybe learn about the games you talk about next time.
>>
>>4280427
Agreed. So stop posting Hetshit Skelter
You admitted it’s het
“With yuri” is just an excuse you said is invalis for both my hypothetical and Raildex, so double standards make it not a valid argument. You’re just clinging to irrelevant lesbians to shill hetahit

>>4280431
Raildex has no yuri, so there is no with yuri.

Both are not OK. But the thing is Atelier is Aro. Anon is using irrelevant side characters instead of the MC to push a het narrative and he should fuck off

>>
>>4280434
Your lack of ability to follow the convo isnt my problem The game with the side-yuri is finale. MS2 on the other hand is yuri focused. Another fail.
Considering this is your level of understanding of the games you call "hetshit" it is now proven you have no idea what you are talking about.

You talking about Ryza is off-topic by the way hetshitter.

NTA but Finale has no "mains". It shifts the focus across several different character groups, only one of which contains the canonical het couple.
And while I disliked MS:F as a game, for many reasons, I would recommend aspiring yuri newcomers to skip the main game completely and head straight to the bonus content, which is still worth checking out.

Why would I actually want to play a game with bad gameplay when I can just look at the cutscenes for the yuri.

Truth is having a yuri game with good gameplay is a net benefit, amd thebonlyvreason we get all these mediocre titles is because of pure laziness.

when he cannot deny the explicitness of a game he will just call the character irrelevant (despite being a protagonist with tons of screentime)
>>
>>4280494
You used maintext like it means the yuri must be the main focus or for the protagonist. Maintext simply means there is explicit yuri in the game, nothing else. Side-character yuri is maintext yuri.

This thread has always discussed yuri content in all games. You are a shitposting troll who comes here every few months to rant and bait people. You arent clever, you arent even slightly intelligent.

It's because gameplayfags complain about cutscenes and talking, so devs who pander to that audience do games with minimal cutscenes and talking, which doesn't allow room for any actual romance
Any games worth mentioning here are made to pander to people who like cutscenes and talking to develop characters and their relationships and thus don't care about gameplay- The crossover of gameplayfag and narrativefag is too small
>>
>>4280505
>gameplayfags complain about cutscenes and talking
Not since what? The 2000s? People fucking love the cutscenes in Bayo and DMC. For action RPGs, cutscenes and talking are outright expected. This idea of good gameplay and story being mutually exclusive is out of touch.
>>
>>4280504
She isn't. She's irrelevantshit. Stop lying to push hetshit hentai. Why do you think shilling het hentai in the yuri board is a good idea?
>>4280502
What you ommit is these "tons of screentimer" is minimal compared to the MC and his hetshit
>>4280503
If that was true a game with 8000000 het sex scenes and 2 explicit yuri sex scenes (the yuri girls aren't involved in the het) is yuri and belongs here. That's retarded
Yuri must be explicit and the yuri girls must be the sole protagonists.

And those cutscenes were two minutes long and just featured the characters doing a cool thing like climbing a tower at the side or cutting a giant robot in half.

>For action RPGs, cutscenes and talking are outright expected.
Action RPGs don't even have cutscenes or talking besides the intro and the ending; all the narrative comes from item descriptions.

>This idea of good gameplay and story being mutually exclusive is out of touch.
It's not out of touch: it's how it is. Especially given how plenty of videogame fans are rejecting modern videogames and embracing indies, AA and B games that are throwbacks to 80's - 90's videogames where gameplay was the sole focus.

Soulslikes became the dominant ARPG style precisely because they don't waste the player's time and are 100% gameplay-focused.
Kingdom Hearts and any modern FFVII project are just nostalgia pandering that wouldn't fly if they were new games released today. Nights of Azure is another remnant that wouldn't made today because it got phased out by Soulslikes.

I don't mindlessly hate dudes or anything but she's also like 80% of what was good about that game, with the other 20% being worldbuilding and crazy animated sequences. In my mind she might as well be the "more" main character, I guess.

>>

>Scarlet Nexus and Code Vein did well enough
No they didn't. They were so coldly received Bamco decided to not bother with either intellectual property anymore. People didn't care about Scarlet Nexus even when Bamco went as far as giving it a 26 (!) episodes anime adaptation and keeping releasing content for the game as far as one year after release, and Code Vein is unanimously considered one of the worst Soulsikes, down there with shovelware like Lords of the Fallen or Mortal Shell.

In fact one of the reasons Code Vein was so disliked was due to having so many cutscenes. Everyone hated the fuck out of those "walk and watch a Diorama" sections.

Would still be subtext without any romance confirmation

Of course not; I just found it very bland, like the prologue / tutorial scenario for a bigger story. And there was no drama or a badass rescue scene, the MCs just solved their issues with a couple conversations. Beautiful art but kind of boring everything else.
I did find very funny the part where one MC told the other she thought she was straight, married to a man and with a kid and the other was (rightfully) super offended. Like, how in the fuck can you misunderstand your ex this fucking badly?

Really? Out of all the bullshit that troll spouted you reacted to the only correct point he made?
DMC doesnt have romance for Dante. If it was a game with a female Dante there wouldnt be any yuri. You'd have to wait for female Nero in DMC4 and that doesn't even matter, because that's all off-screen.
>>
>>4280932
the problem is that nobody really complains about the (existing) het subtext (on the contrary, they call it canon) but yuri on the other hand can't be subtext and even worse if it doesn't have an explicit official confirmation and a statement signed by the entire project staff, then it's not yuri and you can't talk about it in any way.

The annoying thing is the people who think they have the right to determine what can or cannot be done on this board (or any place on the internet), but when they have people pretending that something obviously Het is yuri, those same people don't say anything to them.
>>
>>4280943
So you're mad that people don't want to discuss subtext garbage when there are actually explicit yuri works to talk about?
>>
>>4280943
Nobody thinks Dante has any romance going on. He is literally called a sexless autist who doesnt know what sexual attraction is, because he is a crazy pizzaman hobo who has a bunch of hot women around him yet somehow always ends up not even trying to approach them romantically and ends up alone. The woman he is closest to literally looks like his mother and he treats her like it.
You picked the worst example for your weird nonsensical thesis. If DMC was an all female cast, 90% of said cast would be asexual weirdoes and there would be one canonical couple that doesn't get any screentime together.

Also yes, this is a yuri thread, not a headcanon thread. People don't talk about het games because they are het, they talk about them because they are games they play. But that's not what this /u/ thread is for. The major stipulation to posting here is to talk about yuri. So that unfortunately (for you I guess) means that weak subtext isn't going to cut it. I get it, you want to talk about games you like and I see how people bend over backwards to project something yuri into any game just to talk about it... but this is not a video-game thread first, it's a yuri thread first.
>>
>>4280943
In the case of DMC, no one complains because no one plays it for romance. They play it for the cool MCs doing cool shit in cutscenes and gameplay. But yuri fans seeking yuri games are seeking romance games because yuri is a type of romance. So, there's the difference.
>>
>>4280953
If only, Dante and Vergil are pretty much saiyans on personality: only care about battle, with Dante having something that resembles human morality but still is divorced from it.

No it wouldn't. Yuri fans would hate it due to forcing them to play hours of "tryhard shit" between yuri dates and gameplayfags would hate to be forced to go through hours of "telenovela bullshit" before they're allowed to keep playing the game.

It's not some made up thing I invented on my mind; it's how it is.

It wouldn't because both concepts are mutually exclusive and not only you would be alienating both audiences.

>it simply doesnt exist and won't
It doesn't exist because it has no reason to. The audiences for both types of games have no overlap.
>>
>>4280952
No, the complaint is that you can't talk about subtext, but when something is yuri then it's bad and doesn't meet "expectations" (among other demands) but it's okay to pretend that 2 girls clearly in love with a boy, are yuri characters because it's a popular game and they have porn, you just have to ignore the boy and that's a good thing.

>>4280963
>I literally just explained to someone that genderbending DMC's cast would not make it a yuri game.

no need to speculate, considering that Bayonet and Nier Automata exist, it shows that they are not considered yuri by any means, but hetfags have no problem considering them het.

>>
>>4280980
The Bayonetta franchise literally ended with Bayonetta marrying a dude and having a daughter; that's not even remotely subtext.
People still debates about 2B and 9S's relationship because it's ambiguous bullshit and because they're machines, not living beings.

It's called an opinion and people can voice different opinions about yuri products. It's not a hivemind.
>it's okay to pretend to het girls are yuri characters
You are fucking insane. This doesn't happen. Do you not understand what yuri fanart is? Nobody is saying the fucking game is yuri because they posted AU fanart of two girls from a het franchise making out.
>they consider Bayonetta het!
Because it is. That is literally why everyone shits on the third game.
>Nier Automata is het!
The only romantic implications for the main characters are het, but there is actually a lesbian side-couple among the NPCs. If you are that desperate for yuri in an off-topic then knock yourself out.
>hetfags consider blah blah balh
We don't care what hetfags think. Stop revolving your values around them. Move on and focus on yuri, as you should.
>>
>>4280983
>Persona fans hate having to go through hours of "telenovela" bullshit with the latter's Social Links.
It's the opposite: Persona fans hate having to go through the RPG segments and that's why the dating sim Persona games gameplay-wise are very simplistic and shallow compared to mainline SMT or even other JRPGs.

>And clearly nobody plays RPG's with hour long cutscenes on higher difficulties for the sheer challenge and bragging rights
Exactly. Only a small amount of autists bother with the superbosses and other post-game content because 99.99% of the public plays them for the story and go through the combat parts almost on auto-pilot.

>All those expert level videos of Tales and FF? Don't exist apparently.
Speedrunners are autists like the above; they don't represent the actual videogame public as a whole. If they did videogames would actually be completely devoid of non-combat sections.
>>
>>4280987
Well, I am right. What else can I say?
Unlike you I play videogames and I understand the mindset behind the people who play them. I understand why some games fail and why some games never get made, I'm aware of experiments that worked and experiments that didn't. I understand why people like certain games and genres even when I personally don't like them or why certain games and genres were failures even when I liked them.

You mean the same people that love the non combat stuff in games like FF7 and the Yakuza series? Even the "hardcore" combat fags I follow derided FF16 for not having enough variety in its gameplay structure, and that installment is 80% combat.

Hell, the Yakuza series alone proves you wrong as everyone who plays those games like the combat, story, and side-activities in equal measure.

Because you can like games of different genres and yuri, if there is a good combination of both, then much better, the problem is having more complaints and denials than true enjoyment.

Then you have the other problem that is arising from forced inclusion, thanks to these idiots the general fanbase is rejecting anything gay, that can affect yuri, because the (idiots) players don't know the difference between something good and yuri, from a bitch self-inserting and projecting her insecurities into a game.
>>
>>4281001
>Hell, the Yakuza series alone proves you wrong
Quite the opposite: the latest entries removed the combat because people didn't like it and replaced it with a simplistic turn-based combat because what people enjoys about those games are the story and side-activities, not the gameplay.
A few people who make challenge videos by playing the games on ways not intended by the developers, let alone actually played by the actual players don't represent the audience as a whole and only do it for those Youtube click ddollars.

>the latest entries removed the combat because people didn't like it and replaced it with a simplistic turn-based combat
It's amazing how you can lie this confidently about things you know nothing about. Nobody hated the old combat. The devs literally explained they changed to the RPG style so the franchise wouldn't get stale. It had nothing to do with players not liking the old combat system nd there was even strong backlash against the turn based system.
It's like you live in a parallel universe, except it's just your demented brain.
>>
>>4281008
Given that it took them SEVEN entries (not counting spinoffs and remakes) before changing the gameplay, I'm sure it was less because people not liking the gameplay (especially since Judgement keeps the beat'em up-style combat system) and more so to shake things up to have Kasuga's era feel distinct from Kiryu's. Isn't 7 and 8's turn-based combat one of the least liked aspects of those entries too? In fact, wouldn't changing from action to turn-based combat make the fights go on LONGER? That would defeat the purpose of catering to those who don't like combat over the side activities.

>>4281012

Yes they did, because the appeal of those games has always been the narrative and the

>The devs literally explained they changed to the RPG style so the franchise wouldn't get stale.
No developer changes a series' core gameplay in the name of preventing stagnation, because it turns it into something completely different. With Yakuza they did it because they finally acknowledged the Elephant in the room: people never liked the beat'em up combat and it was an unnecessary distraction.

>Such a huge backslash that LAD is literally the franchise's best selling game.
Because Judgement showed they weren't going to abandon the old gameplay style across the board, the new lead made the game a good jumping on point, and the inclusion of an english dub helped normies settle in.
>>
>>4281017
If people liked the combat the most then the series would have phased out the minigames and side activies and turn it into a pure brawler in the same vein as God Hand, but they never did. Japanese developers can be very stubborn.
Developers lie all the time. When the Blue Reflection gacha implemented a male self-insert main character, do you believe that the developers were sincere with their claims of "it was what we intended to do from the start, totally not forced upon us by shortsighted executives"? What about Starfield's 1000 planets?
An actual backslash means that people wouldn't have bought the game and it would have bombed, which is the opposite of what happened.

A shame, but now that I look at it, the LGBT tag is gone from Steam if it ever was there and no official description or anything seems to talk about romance.

This confuses me. When they say "series" do they mean more VNs in this style with different stories or characters, or that this game doesn't end these girls' story and there's more to come?

Your argumentation is so pathetic.... Not only are you pretending that two VNs are somehow all yuri VNs that came out when there are dozens, you also purposely mislead. Even if the author was a mysoginist, which isn't even proven just because he wrote shitty porn, that was still a good VN with yuri.
The other one wasn't trying to be a yuri VN, so there isnt even any point to try and put it into the yuri category.

Sweetie, honey, tags PRE LAUNCH are added by developers. It's part of the process you go through when setting up your steam page for public view. Steam prompts you to populate your game with about 20 tags.

Yes, I know it says 'user defined'. Steam is lying to you. The tags are first set by developers and only later changed by users.

They can try to affect tags after the page launches, but since the developers added them first and the dev tags get put in with massively increased priority it requires a whole bunch of users to input things before it affects anything and that generally doesn't happen until after the game has been released.

Before the page launches, obviously only the developer can set the tags.

i'm not even sure what you're asking. obviously i have no proof of the day-by-day adjustments of tags on a particular game that I didn't personally publish, if that's what you mean. i cannot prove that the lgbtq tag was present as soon as the page went up unless there's an archive screenshot of it somewhere.

Neesan, I think your sister is protesting that you said "short ON long" and that therefore you meant all yuri games are short haired protagonists seducing long haired girls. Therefore she countered you by having it be a long haired girl pursuing a short haired one.

I can't 100% prove it. I can point out that it's so extremely fucking likely given the way that the system works that unless you can prove otherwise it's still basically established.

Like, it's entirely possible that the game page had totally different descriptive text on it when it first launched saying 'BIG YURI GAME HERE' but with zero evidence pointing that direction, the logical presumption is that the store page description is probably the way the developers set it at launch.

Blame the “coded” and headcanon tumblr/twitter memes for that
People will push their delusions as canon and make tags unhelpful to people seeking real yuri instead of this “coded” and headcanon nonsense that activists use because claiming lots of games for the cause takes priority for them over actually helping people find real gay stories
>>
>>4281239
> cases where the yuri curator this thread uses had trouble with games tagging things LGBT when they weren't

i'm a member of the curator group and the discussions are usually about trying to figure out why the developer assigned the tag since it doesn't necessarily mean yuri, neesan. never about users assigning the tag at random. always about talking to the developer about why THEY added the tag.

>that time trolls tagged the new 100 Heroes game LGBT

known troll cases are a different situation because trolls organise and tag en masse. this is quite different than assuming dozens of unrelated people individually all smoked so much hopium that they tagged an unreleased game
>>
>>4281244
Shut the fuck up /v/tard. Don't bring your politized agenda here. How many times do you need to get kicked down? The yuri community, probably the most delusional community next to fujos, is well known for seeing yuri in everything and always overreaching out of desperation. This is the most normal thing in the universe and no matter how much you scoop out what little brains you have left to fool yourself into thinking everything is the fault of tumblrites or that diversity is bad or that the bad liberals (you are on a fucking yuri board you clown) ruin everything, this will never be relevant.

I am disgusted that you put on a yurifag mask just to keep spouting your same old /pol/ shit behind enemy lines. Begone.

That's not "always" or "never happens". That's "almost always". Sorry words are hard for you.

>okay, so sometimes devs mistag their shit

How is this a gotcha when that's literally what I've been saying from the beginning? DEVS apply the tags and devs are often doing it wrong for a number of reasons, see >>4281204 where I laid all this out.

>okay, so sometimes trolls intentionally mistag

Yes. They do. It's generally pretty easy to detect.

>okay, so there are actually many cases where the LGBT tag gets wrongly applied for various reason, but!

If you mean about why I said it "doesn't necessarily mean yuri" it's because LGBT != yuri. A lot of games are tagged LGBT by the devs because they contain a trans character, a futa character, an NB character, BL, etc. So this requires talking to the developer to figure out why they tagged it.

>The idea that users who fervently follow something they think is yuri would tag it LGBT is completely impossible for some reason!

In case you're still having this much trouble following the argument, the argument is not that no one would ever have tagged it LGBT out of pure hope. The argument is that tags are heavily weighted so that the developer tags take precedence, so it requires a large number of votes all together for a user tag to show up. It's not literally impossible for non-troll users to mass tag things with no evidence, it's just unlikely.

How about the main 2 and their relationship?. Do they get together or is it more "coded" super friendship bs like Everlasting Flowers?
>>
>>4281320
If you keep using "coded" (especially in this retarded way) you will keep getting ignored. Why do you choose to purposely identify yourself as a troll?
>>
>>4281323
I just want to know. Maintext or subtext for the main duo?
>>
>>4281320
It's typical subtext, there's kissing with excuses and nothing's ever confirmed to be romantic.
>>
>>4281325
They kiss twice, once for "the play", the second time because they want to. The game implies they start dating after the game ends. There's no straightforward confession beyond the usual obvious stuff.
It's not subtext, because only an idiot wouldn't get what the game is going for, unlike actual subtext where you are just hoping.

>>4281326
The second kiss has no excuse dumbo.
>>
So what actually is the content level in Everlasting Flowers? There's been such a lot of noise in here, I'm not sure if anyone actually played it or is just repeating rumors.

I think someone said that there is a love confession but it is not reciprocated?
>>
>>4281326
Dissapointing. And some retard still tried to shill it as "good with yuri"
>>
>>4281330
There is no shilling you obviious troll. It's a really good VN with a bunch of maintext yuri and a main couple that is in love by the end. No other qualifications needed.
>>
>>4281326
>kissing with excuses
But that's still pretty gay.
>>
>>4281330
VNs are now following the same cycle of subtext anime, delusions included.

>>4281328
>It's not subtext, because only an idiot wouldn't get what the game is going for, unlike actual subtext where you are just hoping.
This can be said about many many subtext anime. Including Revue or Symphogear (people have said this about the XV ending in fact). Stop the coping
>>
>>4281332
So, is >>4281326 lying then?
>>
>>4281333
Prisma Illya confirmed maintext yuri. Just ignore Shirou and the girls being into him, apparently kisses with excuses for fanservice is maintext yuri
>>
>>4281334
There are so many VNs with yuri subtext, it is absolutely nothing new. Except Lilja and Natsuka is not subtext. The yuri if fucking maintext in every aspect. The main couple's love is also blatant.

>>4281336
No shit.

>>4281335
You are intentionally deflecting. Read the damn thing and come back to me. Pathetic.
>>
>>4281334
Heh, I 100% guarantee someone here will soon start to insistently claim that everlasting flowers is totally maintext.
>>
>>4281335
Bringing up XV's ending as an example of "nothing actually happens, it's all in le head" really lowers your chances of beating the "absolutely fucking media illiterate" allegations into the abyss.
>>
>>4281337
Prillya is going for yuri, but that's an on-going story. Such low level bait...
>>
>>4281338
If I read a VN, I don't want to waste my time on subtext. That's why I'm asking. To know because I don't want to waste my time on subtext VNs

It's been 5 years, if they were going for yuri, they took the wrong turn five hundred kilometers ago.

Your question was already answered. >>4281328
Either this is explicit enough for you to play it, or it isn't.

I don't care what you want. You are disingenious, media illiterate, denying actual yuri on purpose and lying. I don't think you actually care about yuri or subtext. What a shocker.
>I don't want a VN that has no yuri
Is funny that you slipped up this bad by the way, because even if you stupidly pretend the protags arent lovers by the end, the entire game is full of lesbian couples that get together or helped by the protags, so there is plenty of yuri regardless.
>>
>>4281351
I read it until not-Shiro's (or AU Shiro's, I can't remember who he was in the end) appearance. It didn't go yuri.
>>
>>4281352
Except Sympho ends on a confession of love and the writers literally confirmed it. Kinda weird that you would not know that, considering you apparently know so much about "subtext".

And the show ends on a confession. So I guess we have two options here:
1. You are a moron.
2. You intentionally avoid reality on purpose which is supported by you constantly saying shit arbitrarily doesn't count just because.

Either way you are worthless and can stop hoping to bait anyone anymore. Bye bye.

Ever heard of a slowburn? You know, other than the frying of your brain?
And the manga has continuously set up Illya and Miyu's feelings for each other. If you couldn't pick that up I guess that goes back to the brain frying thing.
>>
>>4281370
It ends right before what you assume is a confession
By those rules of "ends in confession" Everlasting Flowers is yuri because one of the girls confesses
>>
Just read about Everlasting Flowers, to think only a few weeks ago people here were swearing it was confirmed maintext yuri because the artist mentioned reading some yuri manga.
If the marketing doesn't openly use the word 'yuri' to qualify the work then the girls won't get together, it's that simple.
>>
>the creator confirming it's yuri isn't good enough
How did anyone ever think this clown wasn't a shitposter?
>>
>>4281368
You can criticize it for the main romance taking too long to develop (though even that's a stretch, they have a lot of intimate moments early on). You can't criticize it for not being yuri, unless you're braindead.

And to put that into perspective, there's been more time between chapter 1 of Illya (not yuri) and most recent chapter of Illya (still not yuri) than between volume 1 of UraPi (can be argued to not be yuri) and volume 7 of UraPi (chimeric otherside lesbian sex).
>>
>>4281375
Apparently it's confirmed yuri after all, because a confession or an scene that could be one but cuts right before any confirmation without showing anything is enough for maintext yuri according to Sympho cultists like >>4281370
If you deny it you're media illiterate
>>
>>4281378
>volume 7
Volume 8*, whoops.
>>
>>4281378
>time
But not content. There is way more Otherside Picnic than Prillya. One is a novel character relationship driven novel series, the other is a battle manga.
>>
>>4281377
Said confirmation should be in the show (or whatever the source is if it's an adaptation)
If the creator can't put it in his story and needs to deliver outside confirmation, that's a failure
What counts is what is on the source story (in the case of Sympho: the anime)
>>
>>4281378
OK. So since Symphogear apparently counts, how about that?
It's super friendship non-yuri bs until the end of season 5. Only at the end of season 5 is there what you can interpret as a confession
Another case of taking very long
>>
>>4281381
Your point being?
Prisma Illya (the series) is 16, probably older than its titular character. "It hasn't gone full yuri yet because it's not a character-driven novel" excuse would've stopped working around years 8-10.
>>
>>4281377
Dumbledore is gay all over again.
>>
>>4281382
>I decide what should be
No. It is confirmed to be yuri. You can wiggle, and seethe and grind your teeth, but it is confirmed yuri. Period.
The entire anime was building up to it, so it didn't come out of nowhere and the creator confirmed it. That's literally all you need for it to be yuri.
Your incredibly pointless subjective opinion doesn't factor in here. Your constant attempts to change goalposts failed.

The source is the writer. The writer knows everything. The writer decides what's canon. That's how fiction works. You will not change how fiction works just to hang onto your hopeless attempt to deny yuri wherever you can.

Case closed shitposter.
>>
>>4281384
To be fair, chapters are super short for a while. And for a while too ,the author has skipped a month or two. so some years have an small amount of content released
>>
>>4281383
What does Symphogear have to do with Prisma Illya being a pretty damn bad in terms of time investment to yuri ratio? Is it also bad in that regard? Yes. I wouldn't suggest watching it for yuri unless you like the premise and/or the songs.
>>
>>4281384
Nope. It could take till the literal last chapter for Illya and Miyu to confess their feelings and that wouldn't change anything.
You conveniently ignored that I said there was plenty of build up to their romantic feelings too. Tsk tsk. You have to try harder.
>>
>>4281342
If you do end up reading it please report your findings here, I'd like to know as well and the local shill is obviously untrustworthy.
>>
>>4281388
The fact it's being defended as yuri and yet it takes as long as Illya for the only yuri scene (the end of season 5) to happen
Point is: not every yuri reveals itself as such early on
>>
>>4281388
Nobody here has actually discussed whether a series is good for the yuri exclusively. Only if it becomes yuri. You were mocked for not even reading half the thing and making tall claims. You overlooked the intentional subtext in the first half already mind you, but after that arc things get more blatant. And ultimately this is only about the end result.
>>
>>4281386

She's been stuck in a separate world forever. And she has no moments with that world's Shirou. Who is shipped with Angelica and Sakura (his subplot in the final fight was all about beating Sakura and restoring both her sanity and even her life, She's now normal and alive)
>>
>>4281403
The whole brocon thing has literally not come up a single time since Zwei. It was a joke to begin with.
And if you are that curious, Illya went to save Miyu and there was a bunch of stuff that she is special to her (not like her other friends) and the main antagonist even went like "Why the fuck do you care so much about her specifically?"
I know I know, this isnt maintext, but that's what I remember from the top of my head. There are some very gay panels, but this is a game thread, so maybe ask in another thread.
>>
>>4281402
How exactly are you comparing runtime of an anime-only series to a manga that stopped getting adaptations in either 2016 or 2021 (don't know what that movie was about)?

>>4281405
Baby is maaad. Waaah waaah lmao
>>
>>4281404
Page count then. The amount of actual story. You using real time is worthless You can use the adaptations and compare their runtime to Sympho (I imagine Prisma will still be longer, but not by much. 4 seasons and several movies vs 5 seasons)
>>
>>4281411
The first movie was about the Shirou flashback shit, so basically completely pointless to Illya (but important to Miyu's backstory).
The next movie will be Illya focused and be metal as fuck.
>>
>>4281411
Because someone who marathons the manga now or when it's over, won't be waiting months and years for developments. So your real time bullshit is worthless
And the latest movie was a canon adaptation of the manga

Everlasting Flowers has an LGBT tag from devs
Confrimed gay because creators said so
Writer also said he was inspired by yuri manga
>>
>>4281407
>>4281409
So as far as I understand she hasn't denied her het crush or even affirmed that she loves Miyu romantically, so I'm not seeing this big reversal from bait to yuri to be honest.
>>
>>4281423
A tag made by users. No creator said anything about it being confirmed yuri ever. Although and this might confuse an infant like you, if one girl tries to confess her love that means she is not straight. Which means an LGBT tag is justified. Oopsie.

>>4281424
What the hell are you looking for? There is no reason for Illya to randomly announce "That joke crush I had on my bro? Outdated."
You were repeatedly told its subtext and slowburn. Nobody said its full blown yuri yet. But Illya has not been involved in anything remotely het for most of the manga's run, yet repeatedly been involved in very gay scenarios with other girls. We will see where it goes... one day.
>>
>>4281430
???
I have no idea what your methbrain is teying to construe here. I never said Everlasting Flowers is yuri. Only that the LGBT tag is justified. Did you know that the LGBT tag doesnt default to explicit yuri? They are actually different tags. Shocking I know! You learned more here than in your preschool today.
>>
Well, someone is pretty gay. That's what I found with a bit of digging.
>>
>>4281433
So if the creator of some ultra-hetshit said in an interview "actually the girls dump the loser male and get with each other", would it be yuri?
>>
So is this gay-ish now?
And no explicitness as far as I can tell.
>>
>>4281435
I mean if there is an actual love confession, even if the other girls doesnt hear it, then even one of the protag is pretty gay.

So you are admitting this was completely out of left field, stupid, basically braindead and wrong to say?

And now you want to go back to talking about creator confirmations, the previous topic, which you for no reason dropped as you saw hope to change subjects? I think you might have tripped over those goalposts.

>>4281432
>What the hell are you looking for?
Well, some anon itt was saying it went yuri, so I expected something that would at least bring the yuri up to the same explicitly romantic level of the het, if not a het denial altogether.
But showing homoerotic scenes without committing has always been a defining feature, I'm not seeing the difference.
>>
>>4281444
This is still about attackingt you for clinging to meaningless shit to call non-yuri subtext garbage like Sympho or Everlasting Flowers yuri
The one moving goalposts is you (muh interview, muh tag counts for convoluted reasons)
>>
>>4281448
So just to confirm, you still accuse me of calling Everlasting Flowers yuri? Very well. Show any post of mine that claims this. Maybe then I will pretend you are above the age of 7. C'mon. I believe in you!

>>4281447
I think you misunderstood what the anon said. Nobody claimed it became explicit yuri. What about slowburn subtext did you not get?

What's the tag for explicit yuri?
>>
>>4281452
Yuri.
>>
>>4281449
OK- I admit I was wrong about that. So let's go back to Sympho: If a show is super het but then the creator says in an interview "the girls abandon the loser male and get together with each other" is it now magically yuri? Is a show yuri just because a creator says so if the show itself has 0 yuri?

The fact that you haphazardly accused me when you thought you had a new angle of attack and the moment it undeniably fails you go back to another bad idea you had is not encouraging your level of intellectual honesty or intelligence.
But fine, let's play your low IQ game.
If the creator says that post-story het turns yuri, then that means het turned yuri. Nothing to discuss. The show was het focused, but in the extended timeline it became yuri, apparently (this scenario is so fucking dumb lmao).

Symphogear has been building up to the love confession the entire season and the creator CLARIFIED that the confession scene at the end (which has no other purpose than to be a confession scene to begin with) is indeed a love confession scene and it ends in yuri.
So as you see, the yuri subtext show that never tried to pretend it was anything but yuri, ended up being confirmed yuri in the end because the creator clarified something IN the show.

Do you comprehend why your example was stupid and why your pathetic attempt to get a gotcha predictably failed yet again?
>>
>>4281456
Steam has no tag for yuri. Not even GL. It's pretty sad.

NTA, but if you started recommending people here to read a "yuri" story like that, they'd rightfully eat you alive.
>>
>>4281461
All I see are excuses for a show with 0 yuri and less yuri than soemthing that is agreed in this game thread to be subtext (Revue Starlight)
Cool we can give Sympho the yuri mark
Why does it matter when the show itself has no yuri? A waste of time for people seeking yuri. How does this mark do anything but confuse people seeking explicit yuri into watching meaningless subtext garbage?

It's a real mystery and completely irrelevant to the point we were discussing. Symphogear is a good show regardlss of yuri contents, but it sure is nice that these very gay girls who were clearly in love get together in the end.

Are we done now? Ran out of vitriol?
>>
>>4281472
>anything about me recommending anything
I meant it in the sense that classifying such a story as yuri would be thought of as shitposting.
>>
>>4281470
It was a comedic early story crush that has not been brought up once, even when she met another version of her brother. It's not simply something that didnt come up by accident, it was purposely ignored and buried. In favor of a bunch of yuri subtext.
A comedic fleeting crush that is very likely confused and mistaken as romantic in the first place is not a good support for a het interpretation of the actual story which couldnt give les off a shit about that outdated gag.

I think you get this, but you cling to it for some reason. I don't really care anymore.
>>
>>4281472
"good show regardless of yuri" is irrelevant to the yuri board
And the girls didn't get together

Not shown Again like many super friendships: fans deluding themselves. Objectively there'0s no romantic build up or confession
Sympho's a waste for yuri fans
>>

Most of the negative reviews for Everlasting Flowers seem to be over the Online DRM and CG stuff. A few mentions the supposedly friendship end but I can't take them seriously when they have less than an hour of gameplay on steam.

Seems like most people here haven't read it, and the few that have, haven't finished it. Screnshots at least look gay. And if there is an actual love confession at the end up its not heard, that sounds like sequel bait.

There's actually evidence for this because they made a whole new brand named after the game?
https://flowers.studio/everlastingflowers

Keep in mind they already made a new brand specifically for their cinematic novels, so the only logical sense is that it'll continue in some form.

It can't be super friendship when it has a canon yuri conclusion. The super friendship is actual romantic build up then.

What the fuck are you talking about? I just told you why the gag you are abnormally focused on is not serious. The yuri subtext that is in the entire manga and not just in the first few chapters on the other hand is omnipresent.

Creator is a piece of trash wasting the time of yuri fans with a show with 0 yuri in the show itself
Put 0 yuri in the show and say it's yur in interviews. Technically might be yuri. Still a waste of time for people who want to see some gay content on screen instead of the usual super friendship shit
Your favourite show is a waste of time. Keep crying, you baby

Like they're clearly making more vn's under this new brand. The ambiguous wording of the description on steam makes it sound like that's the case. If I spoke Japanese I'd directly @ the developer on twitter and ask them about this since they do respond to fans.

>>4281498

>>
>>4281490
>>4281494
So, I assume the director or writer of Symphogear said that the girls are together, which is cool.
But I have to agree with the other anon, even if you explain the ambiguity after the fact, that doesn't make the fact retroactively unambiguous; if it was, there would've been no need to explain it in the first place.
>>
>>4281501
I mean you tell me what the confession scene at the end was about if not a romantic confession. Clarification was given, but the entire season build up to it and there wasnt really any other interpretation. It's really only "ambiguous" because some idiots want to hold onto the prinicipal that it could have been something else, which makes no actual sense. The confirmation is for those people.
It really doesnt matter. The romantic subtext was intentional and so was the outcome. Insteas of being a yuri fan happy that a long cherished ship got confirmed I only see the yuri-denier who has done nothing but deny yuri, abandon all mental faculties to stay in denial.

I hope you are not actually as daft as that toddler.
>>
>>4281502
>that doesnt retroactively make it less ambiguous
Uh yes, that is exactly what a retroactive clarification does? Now it is no longer ambiguous what happened.
>>
>>4281479
As best as I can tell at this point the correct curation description would be something along the line of "Romantic suggestion but left open-ended" or something like Misericorde had where the creator was outright saying "It'll get gayer".

But there's so much REEE that it's hard to get trustworthy information.
>>
>>4281504
I don't think we're disagreeing, we're just reading this conversation differently.
I also believe that it would be very difficult to come up with a reasonable heterosexual explanation for that ending, but the reason I don't call it "maintext" is because in my mind that term equates to "stated in text/speech", and that didn't happen in the anime.
Basically, we're arguing semantics.
>>4281506
Yes, it's less ambiguous to someone who hears a new piece of information about it, but that piece isn't part of the work itself, so its ambiguity hasn't changed.
Imagine that Shakespeare wrote a 1000 pages dissertation that explains every tiny detail of some work of his, you wouldn't read it and then claim that it's a totally straightforward story.
>>
>>4281504
It could've been romantic. It was a nothinburger status quo shit because the creators skipped the important part and blueballed the audience
Even if the creator says it's yuri the show is still a waste of time that should've included the goddamn confession
Sympho wasted yuri fans time for 5 seasons and didn't have the giuts to show anything. Garbage. Barely yuri only saved by author confirmation
>>
This would be easier if people in this thread could lose the "only maintext explicitly shown yuri is real yuri" autism. But since they won't then going by this thread's rules, Sympho's a waste of time. Maintext that is no different from subtext beyond the author comments

Nippon Ichi already tried this some years ago and released a few subtext VNs, which crashed and burned so they gave up.

>>
>>4281774
If it was a sequel to the current game, there isn't really any reason it would stay subtext. Though if it's several games in this uncommittal style yeah, it's gonna go nowhere.
Although to be fair, these are clearly supposed to be emotional coming of age dramas. Those have their own audience. What we as the yuri focused audience ignore is that the VN is still pretty good, even if it's just subtext. Someone who didn't exclusively come to this VN for yuri can still enjoy it.

I've been replaying P3P now that the Kotone cutscenes mod came out.
So I was dead set on getting Kotone to romance Mitsuru (thanks sapphic mod), because I really like the femC specific Soical Link with Mitsuru (and its slightly altered romantic version with the mod), but as the game went on I noticed....
How did I forget how absurdly gay Yukari and Mitsuru are together? They got through an entire character arc together across the game. They are constantly the most important characters for each other across the story. In the femC route, they literally end up in that love hotel dungeon together and when asked what happened to a blushing Mitsuru and Yukari they are being super evasive.
Yukari starts out hating Mitsuru because of her father's death in the Kirijo group disaster, but warms up to her and respects her eventually. When Mitsuru is devastated by her father's death, it's not femC or Akihiko who cheers her up, it's Yukari repeatedly in different events going after Mitsuru and giving her hope. And when Yukari talks about going to the hot springs and "baring everything" to show their closeness both of them blush, showing that they both had dirty thoughts about it.
Also Yukari is the only character in the entire game that Mitsuru hasn't known for years that she switches to a first name basis with, something which in her romance she only does with femC towards the very end when she is head over heels for her and willing to throw away her arranged marriage for her.

Like what the actual fuck? I can literally not make femC romance either of them despite the mod, just because they are a better ship as is. I guess it's time to go back to Aigis. P3P was super gay even before mods.

It makes no sense, because the male MC version of this scene was not censored. It literally only got cut for femC. I guess a minor girl having sex with an adult was worse than a boy doing it to them.

The irony is that they didn't censor Aigis gay Social Link, which repeatedly points out that they are both girls and that she loves Kotone anyway and femC can accept her feelings. So it HAS to be the age gap or the sex. And as Kotone can pretend date a 12 year old I can only assume it's sex.

No need to take the risk when you literally just need to change one number per girl. It's not like you are going to hire 100 idols at once. If you hire 5 idols every 2-5 hours you will spent like 5 minutes editing them all to be gay.

You're lucky if you've managed to avoid knowledge of the war American credit card companies are currently waging on Japanese game producers.

Credit card companies took great lengths to embed themselves in the online commerce ecosystem to the point where it's difficult to do anything without them. Them suddenly acting as arbitrators when the buyer and the seller and the banks are all fine with the transaction is pretty annoying and arguably an overstep. They're literally just middlemen in the transaction and yet.

Hasn't it had mod support since early access?

>>4282718
Integrated mod support. Until now it just detected that you have mods installed and you had to use a seperate fan made mod launcher. They are now giving a mod support menu in the game, the same way Divinity Original Sin 2 did after it was finished.
The reason they haven't had mod support until now is that they were still updating the game. But Patch 8 is the final patch (that adds a bunch of content). After this at most they will do some minor hotfixes, so modders can go nuts.

Is fightinhg these evil "pedo" drawings worth it when yuri goes down with them?
And the only thing related to yuri in this discussion is where to buy the games and if you can from the US, not this debate on wether the credit card people are justified. I guess if you're against high school hentai, then as a HS eroge, Kindred Spirits is part of the problem, but then fuck off from here, because such titles are classics and well regarded in the boardç
Meanwhile non-hentai yuri seems to be subtext trash or too cowardly with the main couple to confirm clearly they get together (painting lies, everlasting flowers)

Yes.
IIRC options (not counting Fujimoto and failure endings like bankruptcy etc) are rival, Aya, your generic idols.
>>
>>4283337
That explains my quest list. I can help Fujimoto, Cocona (is her name random?) and Aya next to the main quest.
Generic idol romance hasn't turned out too well, so I hope the other options have more to offer (no, I'm not gonna try Fujimoto ew).

Honestly I think this game's difficulty curve is fucked up and hurts the game. Chapter 1 is so insanely hard, you can barely keep afloat and somehow have to 200k sales to top the chart, which is just unreasonable from scratch. But the moment I started chapter 2, paid off all my loans and got into a monthly plus I've been racing through the chapters and the game has become pretty managable.
It just annoys me that 90% of all people will not bother overcoming chapter 1's steep difficulty. I guess the dev really wanted to make the player feel what it's like to establish a new business in Tokyo. Hell.

There aren't that many endings with them anyways. You either get married (and then a bunch of things can happen) or you separate and you end up with your cat.

It's not a stat screen. During idol elections after a concert the idols react on the sidelines after every vote.

>Chapter 1 is so insanely hard, you can barely keep afloat and somehow have to 200k sales to top the chart, which is just unreasonable from scratch
I'm not 100% sure but I think the game is scripted to give you one ridiculously popular breakthrough single out of nowhere at that point in the story. It's been ages since I played it though so don't quote me on that but that's a fairly common trope in some tycoon games for some reason.
Later on it's very important to figure out how debt servicing works. It doesn't matter how much money you owe to the bank, the only thing that matters is that you keep your profit % above loan interest rate which is pretty easy in this game (and is absolutely trivial with Fujimoto's interest free loans in early game).
I do agree that in chapter 1 your resources are very limited and your customer base is non-existent so it can be hard to accumulate money even with decent profit margin, but as soon as you get out of that slow start phase you can ramp things up quickly with loans, just make sure your growth rate is at least somewhat sustainable.

Yumia full trailer and preview out
>>
>>4283380
There was no such insane breakthrough single. I had to painstakingly increase my fanbase to way above the 200k mark so that I could get a 200k sales hit regardless of any other factors. It was painful. In the end fans are all that matters to make big numbers. Everything else is just set dressing. And as you would expect, fans accumulate the slowest.
>take a bunch of loans
That's basically what I did. Every time I went into the red I kept taking huge loans, but the interest really accumulated on the bank, and paying back Fujimoto or doing his requests could be really dicey at certain points.
Basically there was a point where I couldnt take any loans fast enough to off-set the weekly debt payments and had to work my idols to the bone with a concert and three singles to make enough money to survive. The bankrupcy counter was at 10 days. I did hear Fujimoto can bail you out of bankruptcy once, but I didn't risk it.
The same time I finally got the top charts I started to be reliable enough with my income to reduce my debt more and more and very quickly in chapter 2 I got into the green.

So yes, for any new player my tips are, abuse loans and definitely try to always focus on gaining more fans in the early game. After that focus on auditions to get gold and silver idols. Anything below silver is worthless.

No yuri, not even an implication, but a bunch of focus on dudes. This is off-topic.

>>
>>4283385
I just started the game and overall the variation in recruits just feels really stupid. I got a random gold recruit from a 100k search who has 99 potential in every potential stat and very high starting stats. Then a good silver idol and 3 useless fucks that barely average 25 in their starting stats.

The 'regular' idols feel absolutely pointless, especially given how long it takes to level up stats.

The golden idol on the other hand is incredibly boring because she doesn't really need any training at all and can do everything already

Overall it just feels like there was no point to all the raising sim aspects of the game for either of the two extremes, and I kinda lost interest because of it.

I also have no idea how you're supposed to manage exhaustion. I guess just keep burning money on spa days while completing new goals + gaining fans, and hope you've gained enough that you are actually making good money from regular performances once the loans run out?

Made my first single, cost I think like 100k to produce and got about 8k back lol. Guess I won't be making more of those for a while.

Honestly just save scum the idols for higher rarity

The question is: Are you using mods? Because most modders who add idols did not balance that shit at all. Gold idols are not supposed to be perfect in all stats. Maybe figure that out first.
>>

You mean our resident actual child fucker?

>>4283395
I dont think Japan likes hag love interests for yuri, which is a shame
>>
>>4283392
Ah, the XCOM experience.
You're supposed to start out with regular idols and level them up together.
Starting out with a maxed gold idol makes the game both easier and harder to play, as you get a girl that can hard carry the unit but you go deep into the red to get her and you're going to need the other idols at some point.
>>
>>4283392
You can train the basic idols early one well enough and they don't demand salaries as high as the golden ones. They can absolutely keep you afloat until you get more high grade idols.
>I also have no idea how you're supposed to manage exhaustion
Spa + break rooms. Break rooms passively recover exhaustion each week. Eventually you will have enough money to afford doctors and medical rooms where you can constantly heal idols fatigue or mental issues.

I'll try the unofficial patch then. Already grabbed the 18+ patch but I manually installed it and it's not showing in the mod list for that reason, it is showing in-game though.

Here's my two good idols (silver and gold) compared with my worst one (trash). Seems memory exaggerated their current stats - my silver actually has better stats than my gold idol atm - but when you compare with their fellow idols I feel like they might as well be perfect.

I took a small initial loan from Fujimoto before I realized how bad my stamina situation was and now I can't get another before fulfilling his request, which I won't be able to do before I run out of money. RIP.

I got her from a 100k audition and she's on the same salary as everyone else (reduced to 2500 from the starting default 4500 because apparently this doesn't affect their satisfaction at all).

I ended up putting my silver idol on hiatus because I couldn't do any activities without dropping her mental stamina. Although at this point their physical stamina values are 64, 32, 18, 3, 3 and I don't think I can start putting half the group on hiatus and get anything done.

The tutorial randomly stopped working for me very early on, so maybe it would have told me about break rooms. As it is I didn't really look at them until the advice this thread.

I would need to borrow 1mil to build a break room. That would bring my weekly payments to 175k. I currently have 180k and I can make about 163k/week if I perform every day of the week and never promote or do spa treatments.

So I guess I could maybe manage by the skin of my teeth with random business contracts topping me up (damn office lady keeps failing 70% of her proposals...). But if I am performing every day my idols probably won't have the stamina to do the proposals very well either, so it's rough.

The initial marketing is very fanservicy, which points to this not going to have any romance with the m*les to avoid otaku backlash.
So the main thing relaly is how the girls relationships play out and whether the community picks up on it with art and other fan content

>>4283441
The games have as much yuri as the rest of the franchiser
To deny their yuri is to deny the franchises as a whole being yuri, which no one who isn't a shitposter would do
You're the one saying Atelier is het because of arguments that also apply to Madoka and Nanoha You're the shitposter.
>>
>>4283443
Another concern troll exposed.
RevStar is yuri. Period. Games will never have different standards than anime and manga
>>
>>4283446
You just said the rest of the franchise is not yuri. Whoops.
>you're saying Atelier is het
Because the entire franchise until now has been het and there is no sign of yuri. But keep claiming that Madojka and Nahoa could be treated with "the same arguments". Good way to prove you are a shitposter who denies yuri.
>>
>>4283448
ReveStar isn't yuri. All of it. It's all shitty subtext at best, every facet of it. And everybody knows it. Yuri shipping is fine, reality is different.

So stop posting about it.

The only het is side characters, like Madoka and Nanoha
With the mains being yuri subtext. like Madoka and Nanoha. There's only one person denying yuri here, and it's you

But the bank generally gives you between 10-100 million loans even this early one, doesn't it? I'm serious, abuse the loans to their maximum potential. You will have to keep taking them for a long time anyway. Some breathing room will allow you to expand and also let your idols recover.

There is a certain balance to it. Fujimoto's loans are your emergency break as they are instant instead of requiring producer to work on them for a week. Use bank loans to have room to fulfill Fujimoto's request so you can loan from him again.

There are literally "meaningful interactions" between girls and boys in the trailer already. Stop being fucking delusional. This is the same dev team that made Ryza and that ended with het romance between party members.

I wouldn't have to so firm if you people didn't keep posting non-yuri games in here and discussed them like they belonged. I have a pretty good tolerance for anything yuri. You won't see me telling you it's off-topic to talk about porn, BDSM, lesbian rape or lolicon shit... as long as it is yuri it's fine. But for some reason (/v/ fuckers) there is always someone trying to shill non-yuri games in these threads. And a couple of shitposters find it funny to post off-topic shit and get away with it.

I'm not the subtext schizo, I'm generally reasonable. I want you to objectively look at Yumia and realize that there is nothing there for /u/ outside of maybe some crackships and fanart. And that's not enough to post the game's content here.

Like the Megaman example I gave before. You can post Megaman yuri art, whatever little there is. But you will not discuss Megaman as a game here or talk about its plot. That's not gonna fly.
Can we not even get this fucking baseline down?

When I say be objective about it, look at the info we have. None suggests sudden yuri from a non-yuri/het franchise. The discussions should just be
"New Atelier is coming out. Not really any signs of yuri. Oh well." Conversation over. Not posting all its trailers, not posting its synopsis or discuss its characters, nothing. Spending months discussing a game that will obviously turn out not to be yuri on day 1 is inane.

Every other game gets the same treatment, one line asking if there is anything yuri about it and us saying no. Then when the game comes out someone asks if it has any yuri and we say no. This is really as far as this damn topic should ever go.

She is an eldritch monster depicted as a goat because she is based on Shub-Niggurath which is called the "Black Goat of the woods with a thousand young". But usually when you try to find anything Shubby related those are a little more tentacle-y and with a lot more eyes. Artistic freedom and so on. That's why I would have loved to have Muu as another romantic option. She is much more fitting for that setting as far as design choice goes.

No unfortunately. It was a project/concept art but it seems she never went through with it. From what I gathered it was about a eldritch cult in a high school. She instead made another story with a manipulative girl (naturally).

>>4283791
Just a storyboard concept.
>>
>>4283792
I was kinda surprised too since they didn't really market it. It would've been scandalous if they omitted it in this day and age. They are targeting western audiences too after all.
In character creator you can set your Zoi's gender identity (female, male, nonbinary) and the sexual preference (gay, straight, bi).

I'm actually fine with a bunch of DLC so long as they're substantial expansions like back in Sims 2 and 3. Where we'd get new towns and mechanics.
Sims 4 is a "game as a service" which is why it's still alive after 10 years. But its DLC are kinda lame. Mostly just clothing and building material packs. Something mods already provide.

I wouldn't mind shelling out for Inzoi DLC. Maybe like a Honeymoon/travel DLC or new career DLC or whole new cities (we'll get at least 3 at release I think).

But for now I really want to see how same-sex childbearing works. I'd be happy with simple adoptions at the very least.

Playing through 2 largely yuri-less games for some lesbian action in the DLC is a pretty tall order, so I don't think you should count that. Same with Last of Us btw, since the first one is also mainly not yuri until the dlc but is essential to play for story purposes.

Forbidden West is the base game you dolt. Proving twice over you have no idea what you are talking about.
And even if Zero Dawn has no real yuri, only an idiot would skip the first game in a story driven trilogy.

So there's not reason to play the Horizon games if yuri is all you're looking for. Got it.
>>
>>4283939
>And even if Zero Dawn has no real yuri, only an idiot would skip the first game in a story driven trilogy.
And that's why you shouldn't count it. Getting yuri only in a sequel is not worth playing through the game preceding it.
I'm pretty sure we had an Anon rag on Mary Skelter precisely for that, too. Hence why Horizon should only be recommended with an asterisk, since that's clearly not going to be everyone's cup of tea compared to a game where you have yuri from the get go.

No shit thereis a lot. It introduces every character, the entite backstory of the worl, the tribes, Aloy's fucking character development... why am I even bothering answering a question this stupid? Yes, an 80+ hour game has a lot of shit you shouldnt skip.

>>4283943
Pathetic. But obvious. No big game like this is worthwhile for romance alone. That isnt how it works.

>>4283946
I dont care about your opinion. It's like a retard conplaining that by the end of volume 1 of Adachi and Shimamura, Adachi and Shimamura are not a couple. I guess we shouldnt buy or read volume 1, because nothing before Volume 6 matters?

Maybe your retardation would have a point if HZD had a het focus like Maryskelter does in game 1 and 3, but it doesnt. It's completely neutral and set up for Forbidden West. We will see how the final game will handle romance.

Either way fuck off with your asterisks. Nobody here recommends Zero Dawn for the yuri. When people say Horizon is on topic they mean it as a series. And if you dont like playing the games for anything but the yuri you will not play 160 hours of open world RPG. It's nonsensical to even consider.

>>4283954
Of course you missed the point again. I'm only talking to the most brilliant gamer minds here as usual...

Then it should also not be talked about.
>>
>>4283969
>>4283970
ANOTHER dishonest asshole who constanrly brings up other shit and purposely ignores the point? Or are you possibly a ban evading troll?

I will only give you one chance to stop embarrassing yourself. It's very simple. Nobody, you dumbfuck, has talked about Zero Dawn. At all. When I came out and had no yuri nobody here tried to deeply discuss it. It has only become relevant after its sequel, so dont make any dumb comparisons to games that dont have a yuri sequel. Stop trying to lie about reality. All that was said is that Horizon as a franchise is on topic and that you need to play the first game to understand the second.
It's ONE narrative and just like any other longform story just because pay off happens later doesnt mean the earlier set up is irrelevant. If I want to talk about how the backstory told in ZD informs Aloy's actions in FW I damn well will and you have nothing to stop me. It's completely in line with the thread's rules.

And don't even bother trying to move goalposts, I don't give a shit. What I said here is fact and needs no further elaboration. Any intellectually dishonest bullshit you will undoubtedly spout will be ignored.
>>
>>4283973
Talk about the DLC of Horizon all you want. The entire rest of the game is NOT topical. You wanna talk about that, go to /vg/. That's for general game discussion. This is for /u/.
>>
>>4283975
Why do you think I keep calling you out for not having played FW and talking about shit you don't understand? FW has yuri content outside of Aloy's crush on Seyka in Burning Shores. Maybe if you werent a crossboarder who only ever heard people on /v/ talk about it you'd have known that.
At the very least you shouldnt confidently make claims about things you never touched. It's quite embarrassing.

Don't care. Stop trying to be special about your own shitty rules.

>>4283978

>>
>>4283979
>it has more yuri
>"I dont care"
I figured. That seems to be a running theme for you.

>>4283981
Well a perfect clone not having the same sexuality as the original would be wild, but how about the fact that the final boss is a lesbian trying to kidnap Aloy to make her her lover on another world because she cant get over fucking her mom 1000 years ago? Or the fact that the entire reason Alva is helping Aloy and crew is so she can save her girlfriend and marry her back home? Or even random side-quests where you help a lesbian couple get back together?
I can go on, but you get the gist.
>>
>>4283984
How many lesbians are there? Because that's a lot of them.
>>
>>4283986
We dont actually know if Elisabet and her clones are lesbians or bi. For now the only attraction/relationships they showed are f/f though. I wouldnt be surprised if they settle for bi so they can give players the option to pick who Aloy ends up with in Horizon 3.
My point is that that's at least 3 potential extra lesbians but I wont guarantee it. Other than that... Tilda, Alva and her gf, the couple from the Utaru tribe you help, another lesbian NPC couple from the Quen tribe you can meet in their camp... I think Hekarro's right hand woman in the Tenakth tribe also talked about her girlfriend dying a long time ago (she is pretty old).
It has been a while since I played it and I didnt 100% the whole insane map. There are also a lot of important female characters we dont know how they swing yet either way.
>>
>>4283990
I shall remember this whenever someone starts bitching about 'side lesbians' not counting in the future. Let me just screencap this.
>>
>>4283993
Anon, you arent actually owning anyone. You are just cringe.
The yuri game thread is about games WITH yuri content. While obviously we dont discuss het games, you can talk about the yuri parts in such a game, obviously.
Horizon doesnt even apply to that category because Aloy herself has romance with another girl in the game. DLC is part of the game, dont bother making dumb destinctions, you literally cant buy them seperately on steam, it's always integrated.

So I checked the website and all CGs there were either masturbation or lesbian sex, but I would be VERY careful anon. This is the type of porn shit that often has a bunch of het rape, monster/tentacle shit and futa stuff as lose scenarios.

You have to understand that a dev who puts content like that into their game is not a yuri fan. And they may be called "bad ends" or "lose conditions", but in eroge that just means its content like any other and stuff the disgusting male otakus purposely collect. It is vastly inferior to a real yuri VN.
Sometimes its not about whether you can avoid it but why it is in there at all. Het rape on lesbians will never be excusable.

Sounds kinda like the 'quantum cuck' argument, but okay.
>>
>>4284066
Yeah I'd be wary of this simply because a lot of that entry reminds me of a previous game JASTUSA published which was technically sort of lesbian but was mostly extreme guro.

That sounds like the response from someone with a quantum sized brain.

>>4284093
To be less aggressive than the other anon, nobody is going to spend the effort to pay for HCGs in their game if they don't think the players are going to want to see them. A game with a detailed het rape bad end does at minimum expect at least some of their playerbase to be into that. Given that they are already expecting or requiring some of their playerbase to be that way, they are likely to add other bits of content to the game for those people to keep them happy, and likely to add some signaling to the game to indicate that the content exists so that they can attract that sort of customer in the first place. These design decisions tend to self-multiply. There's really no point in having just one detailed het CG in the middle of a yuri game, it'll only piss people off (unless that's the dev's fetish, which is another story). You're much more likely to, at best, end up with a game that can be played lesbian or can be played rapefest and is marketed to both teams.

In which case while you might be able to play the pure lesbian route and have a decent time if the game otherwise hits your kinks and has enough content in it for the pure route to be satisfying, it's still going to be seen as tainted and naturally inferior.
>>
>>4284093
I am not playing any game with het in it, no matter how "optional"
>>
>>4284104
Same. We're not asking for much.
>>
>>4284104
>>4284106
So you play nothing playersexual? Or something like Volcano Princess?
>>
>>4284105
There is a difference between a thrill and garbage. Just because nobody wants to see someone eat puss riddled moldy old food doesnt make it "good stakes". It is simply disgusting to be disgusting.
However, retard, het rape on lesbians isnt about "stakes" it's gratification for freaks and it is included gratuitously. It is meant to be "enjoyed". Blurgh... If you dont understand why someone who caters to such tastes should be shamed and kicked down you dont belong here.

Take your potential het rape excitement somewhere else.
>>
>>4284109
Oh I meant strictly VNwise.
>>
>>4284109
Why are you comparing tame romantic choice games to het rape anyway?
>>
>>4284109
Nope; if het exists then I’m not touching it.
Despite that, optional het rape and optional het romance are quite obviously different levels of disgusting.
>>
>>4284115
Leave it to a het rape defense retard to use het incel logic as an example. You dont belong here and your understanding of the topic is about as shallow as the puddle of spit from your braindead drooling.
>>
>>4284115
Well I don't really want to go down this route but it's not really comparable I think. Het rape in a yuri game is worse.
If the bad end in a yuri game was "lesbian rape" or "main OTP breaks up and ends up with other girls" then that would be comparable. Since it's the same sexual orientation.

Either way I agree with other anons. I am not giving money for games that market themselves as yuri but hae het rape scenes. Just too gross.

Honestly not really.

>if het exists then I’m not touching it
That's impressive dedication and also very restrictive. Fascinating. On one hand I want to argue but on the other hand I wanna keep you pure and untouched. From now on I will mention any and all het I see so that you are aware of it and your innocent eyes won't have the misfortune of seeing it. I'm not joking.

But don't mind me enjoying the yuri around the potential het landmines.
>>
>>4284130
I certainly do appreciate it when people who play this or that game mention whether there was het or not.
>>
>>4284132
I take it hetero side couples also make that nope list. That's quite restrictive, but you do you.
>>
>>4284134
Depends on the focus but I usually don’t care if they’re actually side and don’t get shown much.

If a tentacle monster is female then it is yuri. It really is that simple.

>>4284147
Technically but it can still be unappealing. Wouldn't play yuri with hideous vulgar whores either.

You should get Stellaris since it is a better /u/ grand strategy game, been playing that a lot recently.
>>
>>4284344
Stellaris isnt yuri. Not even with mods. An invisible population stat is not yuri. You can pretend the entire population is lesbians, but yuri has to focus on the relationships, which Stellaris does not display or care about. The existence of lesbians is not yuri in itself. It's a coat lf point for you to justify to yourself that you can bring it up here.
>>
>>4284175
This is why I hate self-insert games. It leads to genuine waifufaggotry like this. "Who would you date/fuck/marry" is not a question that belongs on /u/. Yuri isnt about (You).

Tried Coral Island for a few hours and I think I still prefer Fields of Mistria. Don't think the 3D is working for me and I very much prefer the character interactions in that game more, despite it being in early EA. Was iffy on how large the cast is in Coral before playing and now I can see why
>>
>>4284358
You just summarized again why self-insert trash is bad. And there are layers to that. Some games give you at least enough choices to build a character you can ship with the love interest. I dont know how barebones Coral Islan is, but regardless losts like that shouldnt exist.

If you have to do it at all rephrase it at the very least. "Which of these love interests do you think would be good for a f/f ship" or whatever.
Instead these very obvious crossboarders act the same way they do on /v/ and just go "Which of these pieces of meat who you have no context for do you want ro fuck the most??"
I mean come on. He is literally asking (You) to pick a girl based on who (You) find hot. That is as far removed from /u/ as a het dating sim would be.
>>
>>4284362

And what were you doing on /v/ anyway? The people who go on big tangents about evil crossboarders are so funny because they barely even try to hide how they use the same boards too.

This is basically just fast food yuri. You get a dose of big tiddy anime women fucking each other. Not saying that's bad or undesirable, but I will be impressed if this title actually has a decent story or meaningful relationship development.
And like the other anon said, there's always the looming risk of it being a bait and switch. I'll approach with caution.

I read Everlasting Flowers. I won't go into it in detail, but I want to address something that was discussed earlier through second-hand accounts. I think Ran does hear the confession at the end because she says something back. Anyway, the whole point is that Mina has to go back home to try and fix her life with the new perspective she gained from working at the inn with Ran and figure out her own aspirations without becoming co-dependent on someone else before the two of them can meet again. So yeah, if they decide to make a sequel, it may go further with the romance, but it wasn't really the focus of this story.
>>
>>4284774
So basically it's the Fatal Twelve situation, but with no unlockable scene where the confession can be clearly heard. Not as bad as some doomposters were making it out to be.
>>
>>4284775
I didn't play it but several people who did say that both characters say 'love' all the time to a lot of different people, making it hard to get a sense of any particular love statement being romantic. Though the posted screenshot certainly looks more like it than not.
>>
>>4284847
There's a scene at a summer festival the day before they Mina thinks back to the time she spent with "the people she loves the most", then singles Ran out as "the person she loves the most". I don't think it's ambiguous on her side.
>>
>>4284887
*where Mina thinks back
>>
>>4284887
Oh, and the confession on the train platform is probably supposed to contrast a scene at the festival where Mina already tells Ran "I love you" but then adds she loves everyone else too when Ran questions her. When Ran supposedly isn't in earshot on the train platform, Mina directs it to just her.

This list of supported languages looks unrealistic for a project of this scale so I'm assuming it's going to be MTL all the way through (hopefully with some editing).
>>
>>4284992
You play a girl (always a girl, there's no gender selection) who works on fics and other projects for her OTP. the OTP in question is defined by you, so you can make it an f/f pairing, and either get as close as possible to making characters from other media or make your OCs, or whatever.
idk if there's any romance for the MC, but she makes friends with 4 other girls in the fandom.
>>
>>4285103
There's some sort of affection mechanic with events gated behind the other fangirls liking you enough. And even if they turn out to be a nothingburger you still can experience the joy (or relieve the memories) of being an ESL disaster who made her life goal to write as many unhinged AUs of her fav ship as possible.

Let's just assume the demo just used placeholder translations. Also if they are really going the Idol Manager route they will only have very sparse occasional voicelines.

While I have no idea if they intend to, people who use AI to translate can also use AI to voice act

Machine translations are one thing, they are well established and ultimately the one who uses them has no idea whether they are any good. AI voices always sound like trash and even a foreign dev can tell that the AI voice sounds bad.

I get it you have brain damage, but it's not complicated.
Painting Lies = Yuri
Everylasting Flowers = Subtext

There is one troll here who rants about how the protagonists not super duper explicitely confessing in Painting Lies means the entire game isn't yuri (even though they kiss on purpose and make clear they get together by the end), but the whole game is full of explicit yuri couple and even lesbian marriage.

Everlasting Flowers seems to either sequelbait with that final scene or just goes for the tragic missed opportunity. Either way it never crosses the line into explicit yuri, but it has a lot of gay shit.

Yeah it's different case when character is actually trans MtF or FtM but if someone is biologically a woman and says she is NB? Still a woman in m y book.
For me NB is completely unrelated to anything and for me it isn't anything important when someone declares that.
>>
>>4285627
Good thing I never wanted to romance her anyway and preferred two other 3 other female companions option.
>>
>>4285639
Pretty much. It's just a dumb fad. Everyone who is even slightly outside the shitty gender norms immediately declaring themsleves NB is painfully stupid, but in the end they aren't actually trying to change anything about themselves.
It's annoying of course, just because someone a tomboy doesn't mean she is somehow not a girl anymore, but whatever. I even saw in screenshots that she still also gets addressed with she/her in some cases, so I assume this is something you can talk her out of. If not fuck it, it's just a pronoun.

Enoa isn't the protagonist, they're the heroine.
>>
>>4285644
The they/them shit was in actual screenshots of the game though. And yes, there were also plenty with she/her. That's kinda why it's called a rumor right now. But if both are in the game that means it's something that can be influenced or something that changes on its own across her questline. Either way, not important.
>>
>>4285629
>>4285638
There was a plot twist where the MC is revealed to be a robot program like her love interest. I don't know where people get the male-coded shit from since the original program was never shown or heard before the plot twist. Just retards with trans people living rent free in their heads.
>>
>>4285648
Enoa may be an AI, but that doesn't make her a "them". She is a female AI.
>>
>>4285629
I haven't played the game, but a google search gave me this:
https://www.reddit.com/r/yurimemes/comments/17ncw4v/im_not_kidding_about_this_game_crymachina/
Seems like she's implied to have been male.
>>
>>4285652
That's just some reddit schizo. She has never been implied to be male.
>>
>>4285652
>not directly or acknowledged but There is a machine that is coded male for a good chunk of the game in text and dialoge then is revealed that he make himself in to a girl to become human
what does this even mean?
>>
>>4285655
Yeah, this is just pure retardation. If this was accurate then one of the 4 main girls would have been addressed as male all game and then suddenly become female, which never happens.
>>
>>4285655
>what does this even mean
'Coded', 90% of the time, means 'I am making this shit up and demanding you treat it as facts'

I mean you'll see people describe a relationship as 'pedo coded' because it involves two thirty year olds and one of them is slightly taller than the other. Because that implies an unequal dynamic and therefore is exactly the same as pedophilia!

Other times, it's stereotypes and subtext. If a gender-neutral computer is brainy then clearly it's male-coded because men are smart and women are emotional.
>>
If this is talking about Propator, the latter isn't called female by the other Dei ex Machina for the majority of the game because none of them knows who it is, except Enoa who did but lost most of her data in the alien attack on Eden and thus doesn't remember. Once it's revealed that it was Leben all along, there's never a question that Propator wasn't female all along. Leben even calls herself the mother of the other Dei ex Machina.
>>
>>4285668
Yeah, like we already said. It's about the Leben was also a machine twist. And these tranny fuckers took that to mean Leben is a tranny because an unknown entity was refered to as male by people who didnt know her identity.

It's all nonsense as usual.
>>
>>4285652
Remember this for the future, because I don't want anyone to repeat my mistake: r/yurimemes is a tranny subreddit. It's literally full of trannies who left r/yuri when they decided not to accept trannyshit there anymore. Nearly everything yuri they post there is purposely twisted and misinterpreted as trannyshit. Kinda like extremely delusional yurifags who ship straight girls, but just 1000 times more delusional than even that.

I went there literally just one time (without being linked shit from there I mean) and when someone there posted a well known yuri short about two girls who mistook each other for boys as children and then grew up to be really girly and didn't recognize each other on their first meet-up 10 years later (and then start dating afterwards), literally the entire comments section was full of people calling them trans and that they took hormones and all that crazy shit. When pointing out that no, there is no tranny part in that story and that they are just cis girls and the joke is they were super tomboys as kids I literally got banned 10 minutes later.

Moral of the story, reddit is shit, but any yuri sub there except the main yuri sub is infested with trannies and should never, under any circumstances, be used as a source.
>>
>>4285690
the main yuri sub is a porn dump
>>
>>4285690
>full of people calling them trans and that they took hormones and all that crazy shit
Heh, reminds me of those crazy dudes on Dynasty who got riled up by a oneshot from the author of Futaribeya where a molester chatted like a schoolgirl and later wore a skirt to approach one of the MCs, but was chased away by the other.
Naturally they took his side because he was totally a misunderstood trans and got the manga deleted.
>>
>>4285692
Yes. One with actual girls. I'm not saying the standards are high, hell they unironically use Shoujo Ai there, but it sure beats trannyshit.

>>4285694
Sickening.
>>
>>4285652
I hate this sub so much, if you were so desperate looking for man maybe you shouldn't choose yuri to begin with. Why does everything have to be centered around "man", what's wrong with this world? They can't even leave a niche game like Crymachina alone.
>>
>>4285690
Man, good thing this thread isn't obsessed with trannies like they are!
>>
>>4285703
Exactly the opposite direction though. Those fuckers see trannies everywhere because they want them to be in everything. /u/ sees trannies in a lot of things because they are being forced into a lot of "yuri" content and encroach on our space. What happens in this thread is a self-defense mechanism. Being wary generally isn't a bad thing, especially for the yuri genre which has been abused from pretty much every direction over the decades. Be it Class S, yuri bait and switches, bislut stories or trannyshit.

When someone posts that yuri one-shot I mentioned on /u/ literally nobody would even think about calling the characters trannies. That shitty sub only thought about them being trannies. You may joke, but the difference is obvious.

bittersweet yuri is an oldfag trope, thoughbeit
>>
>>4285882
No, these dumbos see stuff like Samurai Maiden or Signalis and think that all yuri must be like that, because they have literally zero experience with the genre and only vicariously live the common oldfag experience through the memes.
The majority of all yuri manga has happy endings. The majority of VNs has happy endings. The majority of yuri LNs has happy endings. I would say yuri anime have happy endings, but they never get to actually finish.

The only space where I could even remotely see some stronger drift towards bittersweet or even sad endings are lesbian movies (because French hacks love suffering).

Played through Phantom Thief Mew, cute little game. I felt like the yuri would just be limited to molestation scenarios at first, but Miu and Chiyu actually do end up together, so that was nice. I really liked the last part with the magician twins, playing as Chiyu to save Miu was a nice touch.

Are the requirements for the finale fixed (X amount of fans, no more and no less) or dynamic (whatever you have +20%)? Because if they are fixed you could, in theory, get there if you stay in the grind mode you used to get over the first curve.
If they are dynamic, though, God help you.

It gives you around 1 month. In that time you need to
1. Learn the judges preferences by using your research points (trivial I'm drowning in those)
2. Get a number 1 single (I managed, but at this point the competition is very strong so I had to get close to a million sales, fucked up honestly)
3. Increase your fanbase by 20% (doesnt matter if you have 10 or 1 million fans, it's always 20%, which is why I had no chance)
4. No scandals (complete joke, I didnt have any scandals for 2 years and even when you get one you can just fire staff and blame it on them)

I could finger most of it, but the fanbase thing broke my back.
>>
>>4286118
And there's no way you can get to that point without massively increasing your fanbase? Or maybe you can get a crapton of idols in a crapton of units pumping out an crapton of singles?

After the game over it allows you to restart the chapter, but that that point I'm already on the doom road.
>crap out a million singles for fans
That is pretty much my only option. I will have to spend all my money on constant auditions and develope singles, but the problem is that you get diminishing returns the more you pump out quickly. And if I overwork the idols this hard they will all go on hiatus and then who the fuck's gonna perform at the Olympics concert?
Well what can you do, I'll just have to go bonkers and play like a lunatic.

Might be a bit late to say this, but this is really off-topic. If you need to do this stuff go to the general thread. I'm sure they'd love to shit themselves over there.

A harmless digression from an on-topic discussion won't kill anyone anon, don't be such a stickler.
>>
>>4287755
I wouldn't say any of this was ever on topic. Discussing how morons on other sides say stupid things is gossip at best. I'm not telling you not to do it, just to pick a better place.
>>
>>4287760
>Discussing how morons on other sides say
Yes, that's the digression; the discussion was about Crymachina.
>>
>>4287761
It wasn't really though. The actual digression was talking about reddit culture and their autism. You then took an even bigger turn to Dynasty's autism. At this point it's neither about games nor people's perception of them.
Honestly, anything beyond correcting the misunderstanding of Crymachina's plot was unecessary.
So just take this gossip to the general thread so they can start a fight with Dynasty or whatever.
>>
>>4287766
But that subreddit's culture was precisely the reason several anons had the misunderstanding about Crymachina in the first place.
Aside from me, at least >>4285763 and >>4285733 found the clarifications very helpful, this was probably the most positive outcome a discussion here has had for a long time.
And I'd say just this exchange between us is already on its way to outnumbering the digressing posts that were there before we started.
>>
>>4287772
This wasn't the most positive outcome for convo by a longshot (people literally ask and receive recs or explanations for games all the time in these threads) and those people would have been fine just getting corrected about the topic. The original question anon didnt even get this info from reddit.
>already on its way to outnumbering the digressing posts
I despise this nonsensical approach. You are not some helpless automaton. You can stop responding any time. Obviously the best outcome would be for you to just accept it and move on, but you people never do. Either you follow your own logic and shut up or you accept that clearing up what kind of posts should not be necessary in the f-u-t-u-r-e will help the threads overall. Just like you need to train a dog to obey commands over time, you also need to reprimand people who stray occasionally so that eventually they behave by default.
>>
>>4287772
On top of that it will prevent future misunderstandings about games by warning anons from visiting that place.

>The original question anon didnt even get this info from reddit.
Well that's pretty funny of you to say considering I brought up the topic here after reading that reddit thread and the posts on the previous game thread, who was quoting it word by word.
And all the while you keep insisting on your off-topic tirade, you write a wall of text worth of rhetoric about me?
Way to practice what you preach.
>>
>>4287786
It didn't. The actual anon who wanted clarification NEVER said this info came from a random reddit thread from 10 months ago. ANOTHER anon just said he googled the topic and found that ancient reddit thread.
If nobody had set up this strange misunderstanding nobody would have looked on reddit of all places for clarification.

Either way, anybody on 4chan knows reddit is trash.

>>4287787
>blah blah blah no u
God you idiots are always the same. When will you learn that "you reply to me so you are guilty too" is not a gotcha? The only thing I practice is explaining to mentally underdeveloped autists what they shouldn't do. And you seems extremely resistant to learning and very intent on stretching this out and constantly defelcting.
Remember: This was about you posting completely off-topic and irrelevant Dynasty gossip. Not about the reddit thing which I didn't even interfere with at the time, as you no doubt noticed.
>>
>>4287790
>The actual anon who wanted clarification NEVER said this info came from a random reddit thread from 10 months ago
That whole Crymachina (malicious) misunderstanding was born from the start on that subreddit; anon listened to a misinterpretation from the game that came from someone who visited that place first.
>>
>>4287790
>The actual anon who wanted clarification NEVER said this info came from a random reddit thread
Well, as someone who's so eager to show his logical superiority, you sure have trouble putting two and two together.
Allow me to help.
4chan:
>What the fuck is this about one of the characters being coded as a male or something like that before becoming a human female
Reddit:
>There is a machine that is coded male for a good chunk of the game in text and dialoge then is revealed that he make himself in to a girl to become human!
The almost exact quote is the reason I immediately found the reddit thread when searching for info about it, and failing to find anything else about it on the internet I asked here.
Also, consider your additional off-topic ramblings thoroughly ignored.

It's not just a Reddit thing; tvtropes' YMMV sections for yuri media (mostly videogames, for some reason) is all about interpreting canon frmale lesbian characters as secretly transgender.
>>
>>4287792
In that case, not knowing where it came from, there is little reason to care about or bring up reddit. After all the information could have come from anywhere. As long as it is wrong and people correct the misunderstanding that's the problem solved.

>>4287793
Two and two make four, but you are just saying someone found a two second-hand somewhere with no context. To the one who got the info second-hand the knowledge of where it came from after being already corrected has no value.
>I will ignore you now!
Fucking finally. But please, do keep the dynasty gossip out of this thread too.

>>4287795
Yes, the first digression was the reddit posts, but they were still flimsily connected to the actual topic. Your digression from the digression lacks any and all relevance. Thus get it out of here.

You people... unbelievable. Just take the scolding and move on.
>>
>>4287796
Someone said TVtropes nuked a bunch of lesbian/yuri tropes for some unknown reason recently. No idea what's going on there, but people should never have taken TVtropes information for games as reliable. They always got shit wrong for as long as I remember and that goes both ways, like tagging the most worthless of subtext full of yuri tags.

>>4287797
>not knowing where it came from, there is little reason to care about or bring up reddit.
Reddit being the source makes it a necessity because it helps anon understand that if something's sole source / internet search result is reddit then it should be ignored.
>>
>>4287803
I didn't even bring up reddit originally, I just asked for info:
>>4285629
Then someone else found that thread too and posted it.
>>
>>4287803
The entire point is that the original anon did not know it was from reddit and just regurgitated wrong information from somewhere. He didn't ask "Is this reddit thread correct?"
Most people here know well not to trust reddit on anything.
>>
>>4287809
Anon regurgitated that "information" because he listened to someone else regurgitating it from someone who read the reddit thread some time ago.
By warning people to ignore that subreddit we may cut that chain of lies from the start.
>>
>>4287818
Just don't reply to him, it's not worth it.
>>
>>4287818
Actually, as I said, I knew that anon took it from Reddit, I'd found the topic beforehand, I just didn't mention it here when I asked for info, but some other anon immediately found it anyway.
>>
>>4287818
You know that makes no sense. The info didn't come from /u/ obviously, so it didn't come from someone on here, but some other place, so obviously there is no point in pretending that you can cut off wrong information chains from the end point.
All of this is so retarded that it actually hurts. What the fuck are you arguing you vacuum brain?

Another anon claimed that it "ruined Crymachina" so at least two anons took Reddit's misinformation directly from the source. That makes clarifying the source and why it's not to be trusted necessary.
>>
>>4287841
Don't capitalize, he'll think you're me too.

Even more of a reason to shine a light on the source: if trolling is allowed to go unimpeded it will get worse and worse. Soon we would have, I don't know, people posting that Tsumugi went back to the future because she's transgender and medieval Japan is against it or some other outrageous shit.

>>4287841
Keep the good work going, now even the dumb Google IA is using reddit as a source so it's a matter of time before more misinformation comes from that place.

I genuinely don't see how your point could be this stupid. I already said that correcting the wrong info is all you need. This means telling the anon what is actually going on in the game, which would counter the trolling too. At no point is randomly pointing at reddit going to do anything.
This is painfully pointless. You are dismissed.

>I already said that correcting the wrong info is all you need.

The end result is the exact same. With no way to confirm the truth they will come here to ask. No matter where the wrong info came from. After all clarifications are needed.

But still arrives here, so we need to clean house. And probably many anons visit that place even when they don't name it directly.

Pathfinder WoTR got a random free DLC update for a crossover with another game that adds a few small things and then BG3 drops the big final patch within the same day. That certainly is a good day for CRPGs.

I guess people who thought the evil path in BG3 was not very fleshed out can be happy now. For everyone else this only really added some mechanical changes and better mod support.

You don't have to "let it happen". Did you know there's a report function? Did you know you can use that and you don't need to make any posts?
Reporting without replying helps more than derailing the thread further to preach. Your preaching will always fall in deaf ears. No one will listen. You're only shitting up the thread further. Report and shut the fuck up. You are an idiot if you think your preaching stops anything

This isn't really true. In the actual DnD books Tieflings werent nearly as colorful. Players ignored the color limitations and appearance limitations and just homebrewed the shit out of Tiefs until 5th Edition weakly acknowledges more color variation possibilities. But overall they keep it vague to avoid more backlash.

Also you can already make them look pretty human in BG3. You can already give them normal eyes and human skin/hair color. Even small horns. What more do you need? Rip off the tail?

The one good Tiefling mod that has been around for over a year added more Tief sub-species at least.

It's about having OPTIONS. Tieflings can also have hooves, yet I don't see none in BG3 sporting them. The Tieflings all look too similar.

Aren't there a bunch of Tiefling variations? BG3 should have more than one.

>>4287963
There's a whole spiel in the ttrpg community about how D&D nuked most of the tiefling options to make them more similar so they could sell more figures/etc because your average D&D player isn't up for kitbashing the way a serious warhammer player would be, but if you want more info look off /u/.

>lovers suicide bad and not yuri
What? I agree het endings aren't yuri. But how is a tragic ending for a lesbian couple not yuri? Why do you think yuri should only have happy endings?
>>
>>4288195
Garbage is garbage and I don't need to justify why it sucks. Portraying a double suicide as the "good outcome" because the story is so het centric and has to portray lesbianism as a dead end is extremely disgusting. These endings weren't put in there because the authors liked suicide so much, it was because of strict regulations.
There is no justification for this nonsense. And calling it yuri is an insult to yuri.
>>
>>4288196
>I'm a fragile little bitch who can't handle tragedy and think no one should
>everything should only be boring generic happy endings
This is how you get less yuri if you restrict authors. They'll make their tragedies het or yaoi instead. If we want more yuri, we need to let authors write whatever yuri they want, including tragedies.

Ironic since you're an schizo making up shit about tragedy writers to force a happy ending all the time
Because Samurai Maiden is a sad ending where the MC goes back to her time, is it also some kind of anti-yuri insult to yuri het propaganda according to your schizo logic?
>>
>>4288228
I'll give you a hint. Read my actual post next time before you make up a fantasy version of it get mad at. Ya daft cunt.

>>
>>4288238
Not beating the illiterate allegations today.
Fine, because you are mentally challenged I will deign to give you context.
The topic was Class S. In my post I literally specified >>4288196
>These endings weren't put in there because the authors liked suicide so much, it was because of strict regulations
Do you understand? The reason Class S is garbage because it bends to homophobic regulations and norms. While lovers suicide is a garbage concept to begin with, my problem with it here is that it was not done because it was the writer's vision, but because they had no better alternative. It's fucking trash, it's disgusting and it shits on yuri.

Now if you still didn't get it like the first 20 times you didn't manage to get the most basic context, then you are too stupid to be conversed with. Do your best.
>>
>>4288239
So for some schizo reason you linked tragedy to class S so you can feel justified in being a fragile little bitch who can't handle anything that isn't a happy endingç
Yes, I'm right. You're using schizo logic to complain about tragic endings and try to say they're secretly anti-yuri
Tragedy yuri, even lover suicide, is still yuri. And will never be class S or whatever other schizo shit you claim
Is Samurai Maiden also class S because it's not a happy ending and the MC goes back to her time?. Kill yourslef schizo. There's nothing to get here. You're the one being an stupid schizo

Any news about anything yuri related in VTM - Reckoning of New York which got released today?
I remember playing two past parts and it had such content and it seems to again have female protag in it.

Funnily enough, when I typed Velvet in I got a game out of it not related to this one but with yuri.

>Velvet Bite: Softly, With Teeth
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2894820/Velvet_Bite_Softly_with_Teeth/

Steam says: A Romantic Visual Novel featuring 6 romanceable vampires.
>3 females
>3 males

Added on Steam: 5 September 2024
Demo is out too.
>>
>>4288514
Vampire girls? I'm in.
>>
>>4288514
Yeah that was a failed kickstarter that lost the artist, was assumed dead, and then did a total revamp (so to speak).

The other one's mostly otome, just the one female option.
>>
So I remember that Rear Sekai was mentioned here briefly some time ago because there is the option to play as a girl and I think the Rune Factory developers were involved somehow or at least the artist.
The thing is that it has released recently in the West with a long ass name: Elrentaros Wanderings, but the reviews are quite negative at the moment, it's sitting at mostly negative rating on Steam for instance. And from what I read, it reminds me of Harvestella but (even) worse. As to the romance and yuri, I read there are same-sex relationships in a review, but said relationships are as deep as a puddle. So not a great look overall. I don't think it's even worth adding to my pirated Switch.
>>
>>4289121
Anything that manages to go below Harvestella's very low bar really isn't worth it.
>>
>>4289121
I read impressions when it came out in Japan and people mentioned that romance is just a few lines at the end. Wait for Rune Factory Guardians of Azuma.
>>
>>4289121
>>4289264
>>4289342
>Letting secondhand opinions and retarded Steam scores decide for you
Just play the game and arrive to your own conclussions; maybe you will like the game after all.
>>
>>4289410
There isn't much room for interpretation with "a few lines at the end of the game". Ending slides are lazy enough, but at least the most popular games with that like Fire Emblem have support conversations and stuff like that. This level of yuri is just too weak to be worth playing an entire game for, so it would have to offer something else...
Which brings us to the game itself. With so many negative reviews you can filter out the actual problems and this one clearly has a lot of them. This isn't an Overwatch 2 where people are just on a hate bandwagon, this is a niche series for enthusiasts.

Sure, I have seen games that got hate which I liked anyway, but ultimately what matters most here is the yuri. If it's tagged on then I will ignore it just like I kept my hands off Harvestella and its non-comittal garbage.

Was Nurse Love Addiction supposed to be good? I really wanted to like it and its theoretically should have fit my tastes but the individual routes felt underdeveloped and flimsy for how dramatic they tried to be. The art was good but the story was pretty meh

>>4289529
I haven't even played Kindred Spirits but okay. I'll be honest I just wanted to provoke people into giving me their thoughts about Nurse Love Addiction, and people are more likely to respond if you add some inflammatory statement like that than if you don't.

Yeah they sure will reply more. It's just not gonna be a constructive conversation, dumbass. Next time ask like a normal person, lest you wanna be lumped in with actual shitposters again.
>>
>>4289441
I enjoyed it other than the teacher route, it's rare to find a yuri game with this level of drama and nonsense. Don't get me wrong I like sweet romance too but so much yuri is focused on one perfect couple that it gets old.

Some people prefer Nurse Love Syndrome for exactly the reasons that I don't - it's a lot less wacky and has more slow drawn-out romantic endings. If you found Addiction underdeveloped you might like Syndrome instead, but the drama and WTF is a lot lower.
>>
>>4289441
I thought it was okay, but it's pretty fluffy and slice of lifey and there's barely any continuity between the scenes.
>>

Only ironically. Syndrome is the actually good one.

An indie Silent Hill clone was released today; said game's player character is a woman who's exploring an abandoned town searching for her ex-girlfriend who went missing; tried the demo on the latest Steam festival.
I didn't buy it for the yuri but because I like 3D survival horror games on the same vein as classic RE; I won't name it because I need to find first if it's yuri enough to justify being discussed here. I'll tell you about it.

Just half-assed making 12 girls from different yuri series in Summer Vacation! Scramble (The new Artificial Academy) and was just going to let them go at it to see who ends up wanting to fuck who.

Rei from Konohana Kitan, she was only in one episode. She was the first girl I made as I originally intended to only make minor characters from different yuri series. I scrapped that plan after Akari and Tarumi. I might replace Rei with Satsuki's sister Hiiragi later.

Theyre pretty much obsessed with eachother, and all they talk about is eachother, and the game starts with one sacrificing themself for the other, but the game ends on sequelbait.

The big question is why a Metroidvania requires a Kickstarter when it's the easiest genre to make without a budget and one of the most popular ones, to the point where 99% of indie games are Metroidvanias.

Your big question isn't /u/ relevant.

>>4290295
I mean this is just scaly/furry shit. Not exactly creative alien designs. Lizard with tits is still just meant to be hot to humans.

>>4290298
I wouldn't say sketchy, it's just very unusual. Metroidvanias usually aren't big on long interactions, but it could have some kind of homebase that you return to a lot. Maybe you go on missions within the Metroid style map.
>>
>>4290291
I wonder if they picked a gender neutral name like Jack because they initiall wanted to give the player the option to select the sex.
But then I see all the unique and expensive animations and it seems clear why they didn't wanna do those twice.

All the better for /u/s I suppose.
>>

It's made by a studio that has some games in its portfolio already, so likely they're just using Kickstarter for free (or at least cheap) marketing.

Generally the less humans want to fuck an alien race the better they are as actual aliens. This is why you could never romance Korgans, Elcor, Hanar or the weird bug things on the Citadel. Even Salarians are too freaky for most humans. This is what makes them good.
If you just make a big titty humans with scales you didn't actually make a lizard-like alien. You made a human like lizard.

>>
>>4290422
All robots are, as the male/female binary is a biological construct. Some people get really mad when you point that out though.
>>
>>4290472
Androids can absolutely be created to have female features and an AI can be trained or created to have a female identity and personality. Combine the two and you get a female robot. You are being quite intellectually dishonest to just stamp that off as non-binary.
>>
>>4290479
considering the hoops some people go through to insist that a relationship is still het even when a character has had every cell transformed into female because they didn't start that way, there can definitely be people who think that no robot is ever male or female because they weren't born that way

i'm less picky, if the robot looks like a girl and sounds like a girl and calls herself a girl i'm fine with that
>>
>>4290479
>a female body and a female mind are not determined at the moment of one's creation nor are they inextricably entwined, but are in fact mutable concepts of one's self that can be "trained"

>>
>>4290485
GB trash isn't yuri and is completely different. Just because you put a dude into a female body doesn't make him any less of a dude. That's trannyshit.

>>4290487
You really are stupid enough to see that explanation and compare it to trannyshit, aren't you? Not comparable in the slightest. We are talking about something that was created to be female from the start, not a born male being turned into a woman.
>>
>>4290490
Just because you put an AI into a female body doesn't make it born female either.
>>
>>4290495
1. Yes, if the fucking AI was programmed to be female from the start.
2. If you just digitize and copy the mind of a woman and put her into a gynoid there is no difference from a normal woman beyond not being organic.

Maybe the AI refers to itself as female. It has no reason to lie.
