Just to be clear about the Next Fest part, there are way more games that could be relevant, but these are the only ones I could find 100% confirmation for having yuri in them.
I would assume that New Arc Line, Sensei I love you so Much and the like will also turn out to have yuri content. We will see.

Other than Swordcraft Story are there any yuri-friendly games on the GBA/DS/3DS? I find myself spending quite a lot of time playing on my 3DS lately so might as well make the time more fulfilling. Untranslated Japanese is fine.
>>
>>4321158
Unless you are fine with lots of romhacks and mods, not especially. That era was completely worthless for yuri.
>>
>>4321163
That's kind of an impression that I've got... Are there any particular romhacks or mods I should be on the lookout for?
>>
>>4321164
The Fire Emblem romhack scene is pretty big and they just love FE8 as a base.
If you want the least intrusive version, play the Fire Emblem Sacred Stones hack called Restoration Queen. Just makes the game less sexist and adds a couple of yuri supports to the game, but otherwise leaves it as it was.

For the 3DS there are obviously Fire Emblem Awakening and Fates, which also have gay mods (those ones are a lot more extensive on making nearly all pairings possible).
If you want more go to the archives. People had a discussion about different FE hacks and mods not too long ago.

Now that I think about it... there was a fan translation for the DS game Metal Max 2. In that game you can play a female protag and flirt with women and even marry some at the very end. But it doesn't really have a proper romance system.

There is only one gay mod for each of these 3DS Fire Emblems, so there isn't anything to recommend. You either try those or you don't.

This looks likely to be at least subtext (hopefully more). Base plot about a girl saving her sister, lots of pretty girls and mysterious girl-bosses.

Definitely check out FE Drums of War if you're chill with romhacks. It's gotta have one of the strongest lesbian reps of any romhack.

That would be me. I've been working on my version of the mod for several months now, and it's maybe 60~70%-ish done at the moment. The process of creating it has been very exhaustive, as it has required me to spend several hundred hours simply playing through the game, performing every possible action under every possible circumstance, several times over (once in the base common route, then once with each bachelorette, and finally another time through NG+) just to see all possible dialogue and ensure completeness. For reference, the dialogue file has over 110,000 lines of dialogue, and it is all unsorted and unlabeled.

The reason I say "my version" is because another user published a fix of their own back in May of this year. You can find it on Nexus.
https://www.nexusmods.com/runefactory4special/mods/80
I haven't played their work myself, but our approach to the issue seems more or less the same. Only reason why I didn't just drop mine was because I didn't know theirs existed until I was way too deep into my own.

I completely forgot about that. I downloaded that two years ago and played through the prologue and then just stopped. Picking the nurse as the protag was definitely making things a bit harder. But it was fun how she could immediately flirt with the single milf at the starting town and the daughter already started treating her as another parent.

Just how I remember it. Anime Mad Max for the DS. These cosplay outfits really don't suit the apocalypse, but it's kind of amazing that they let you make an entirely female party. And you can pick up a dog and a tuned up armored car for combat.
I wish there were less complicated systems and the map was better, but it's a DS game, so I shouldn't be too picky. At least with emulation you can speed everything up.

The game is good and the gacha can be ignored, but if you only care about yuri play the Papal States route of the Spiral of Destinies mode. It has goggleable Lonesome Maiden/Edda (they also have some crumbs on the Iria route) and fem!(You)/Samantha. The prequel story (Taiwan-only at the moment) seems to be pushing Safiyyah/Rawiyah and two newcomers in a "tragic yuri" sort of way but in the present Safi is het.
>>
>>4321918
Fun for a while but gets really tedious and repetitive, especially if you partake in the gacha side of the game and do all the daily chores. Dropped it after a month. Not much in terms of Yuri really, this onee-sama sumed it up well >>4321937

>>4321929
So is this like an Etrian Odyssey thing where you create a party and dungeon crawl or are there actual NPCs to interact with? Looks cute though.

Any particular Ps5 recommendations?
So far i've only got Rise of the Ronin and earlier this week I got Pathfinder: WOTR on a sale at 70% off. I plan to get BG3 at around Christmas time, but is there anything else I should get?
>>
>>4322208
>WOTR on console
My god. Who would commig violence against themsleves in such a cruel and unusual way? BG3 is a miracle for working on consoles so well, but any other CRPG is not gonna work with a controller. There are hundreds of menus...
>PS5 recommendations
There arent any PS5 exclusive games with yuri aside from RoR, so you can just look for the same crossplatform stuff as usual. A bunch of VNs, Crymachina, Signalis etc.
>>
>>4322213
Console ports aren't always bad, you know. DOS2 port was fine and even had the advantage of being able to sprint wherever and whenever you like, unlike the PC port where you have to hold the mouse halfway across the screen so the characters move with the precision of a barge.

And like I said, I got it on a sale. So it hasn't exactly set me back much.
>>
It's so peaceful after all the trolls got banned. Enjoy it while it lasts. They'll be back soon.

Meanwhile I'm looking through Steam's new yuri releases and find this schlock. It's at least good to know that yuri casts a net wide enough to have its own library of these 3D sex games by now.

Honestly, what is if with your freaks and this shit? Are you 13 year old emos who glorify mental illness? Being edgy is not an identity.
There are plenty of dark yuri works that don't rely on a teenager's idea of an edgy toxic relationship.
>>
>>4322215
>DOS2 port was fine
That's true, but guess who made that game? Larian as well. I think they just figured out how to do CRPGs on console well. Just saying that WOTR and stuff like that is very uncomfortable with a controller.
But anyway, I hope you try those games. Really good stuff.
>>
>>4322878
>a teenager's idea of an edgy toxic relationship
A teenager's idea of an edgy toxic relationship is the most accurate to a teenage edgy toxic relationship
>>
>>4322884
Teenagers think literally anything is drama, they barely understand what a toxic relationship actually is. These edelord stories are just a bunch of stuff they think sounds really dark and taboo and that's why they write barely coherent bad grammar fanfics of that caliber.

I don't understand why anybody would chase that trend with a proper commercial work.

lol i know that game and ebihime games are not that good, but sometimes you need to play this kind of games from time to time.

>>4323048
LiS was really bad. All of them.
>>
>>4323048
The consensus is that all that matters about Double Exposure is if it has a proper lesbian romance option. It does so any other talk about the game is superfluous.
If you want to talk about "muh gameplay", "muh writing", "muh choices" feel free to go to /lisg/ or /v/.
>>
>>4323055
You can pretend to be someone you aren't, but the bait is garbage. Trying to sow more discord by purposely pretending to be the thread police anon meme is just sad. You completely fail to understand the point of the criticism that is usually made.

Everything related to the romance in the game can and will be discussed. The romance, the plot, the gameplay and the correlation between all three is relevant and on topic.
Never try something this dumb with me again.

Yeah, Amanda. People initially thought she was Asian, but she's actually a native girl.

Usually the inclusion of Muslims in lesbian media is to either make fun of Muslims or to show the genuine struggle that LGBT Muslims face due to their culture. It's the same way Christian girls are treated in lesbian media.

For me, it's Bellara. Just wish she'd let her hair down in her casual outfit.

It's more or less the same in any Mythic Path, save for Lich (where you can't romance anyone). Demon path does have one new dialogue for Arue in Act 5 if you choose to reject your Mythic Powers which is pretty heartwarming. Also Aeon does have an extra line, though it's barely worth mentioning.
>>
>>4323903
Thanks. Demon path sounds interesting, haven't played an evil PC in forever so that should be fun
>>
>>4323659
No it's not. A girl fantasizing about marrying a guy is not het romance. Why do we lower our standards below other romance genres?
>>
Im looking for a decent game with good romance on the side, is Sandrock kinda like Rune Factory or is it more like harvest moon? I kinda want something adventurous but I dont wanna play dragon age, ive heard its shit....
>>
>>4321080
Wait why is Potionomics considered yuri but when I tried to talk about Teenage Exocolonist I got told it was nb garbage and not allowed?
>>
>>4323755
It seems pretty obvious that Azata is the path for her and she has plenty of unique dialogue and thematic resonance in it which you don't get anywhere else.
But if you just want to romance her again there isn't really any downside. If you are serious about seeing a different side of her you can corrupt her on the demon path. Romancing a fallen Arue is not really great, because she just goes back to evil succubus who doesn't believe in real romance, but it is at least unique.
>>
>>4323923
>I've heard it's shit
By people who haven't played it I bet. Don't let yourself get influenced so easily. But I bet you havent played any of the previous games if you talk like that, so it's probably best if you don't touch it anyway.

>>4323925
Chances are you just set off a bitchy anon I'd say. You kinda have to walk on eggshells around here. If it features two women or femmes, it's totally chill to discuss.

Because... it was NB garabge...? Potionomics has several normal female romance options for the exlcusively female protagonist.
>>
>>4323928
And that anon posted an NB romance where you couldnt even be sure if it was a girl. So it was definitely not on topic.
>>
>>4323927
I played origins and enjoyed it a lot and I thought inquisition was okay but ive heard a lot of poeple say that there's next to no actual meaningful choices in the latest and that its essentially and action game with really bad companion writing...
>>
>>4323943
And they said the same shit about DA2 and Inquisition.
>>
>>4323943
Well Veilguard is action TPP game at best with some RPG elements in it and few choices here and there, but it is linear story.
I played around 10h in so far and it is a bit too simplistic for my liking compared to original or BG3 but I enjoy it for what it is.
I blame console faggots for making all these new "RPG" games like that. I like to pick up stuff and create variants of armors or weapons, here it's zero of that, same shit like in AC games.
>>
>>4323929
Is the protagonist of Potionomics canonically female or are you just assuming?
>>
>>4323914
To be clear, it needs to be Demon path into Legend path (or Gold Dragon, to a lesser extent). Thematically it's the opposite of her Azata romance: this time she helps you on your redemption arc.

I believe Arue leaves the party on a full Demon path unless you've corrupted her. And you can't romance a corrupted Arue.

>>4323952
What the fuck do you mean am I assuming? Sylvia is a woman, it's not a hidden secret. Did you seriously just reply to start shit? Because one look at the game's page could have told you this.

One of the reasons I respect Potionomics is exactly because they didn't coward out with a slectable gender protag or a self-insert. Sylvia is a real protagonist and all the romances with the women feel a lot more genuinely yuri because of it. Sure, she can romance dudes and that one NB character too, but at least from the love interest's side you don't have to assume they are bisluts too, because they aren't forced to also like a male protag.

And the love interests are also all really well designed and diverse. It's not all just the same anime girl face and the same body types. Even monstergirl lovers get their due. And it's also not tumblr-whatever strawman shitposters can come up with. More Pixar than anything.
Also the 2D art for the card decks is really cute.
>>
>>4323945
DA2 let you roleplay Hawke as an aggressive jackass who can murder knife people because they bother her. Rook in the meantime is such a limpwristed little bitch she can't argue back against her companions. Great role-playing!

>but NB
That's not something you said, it's something I said and you tried to get a foothold on.

(You) said that every character would be sexually or gender fluid because of this. Not a single one is.
You claimed the writing would suffer because of your imaginary gender optic BS. It doesn't.

There is just one NB character and nobody makes any big deal out of it. It's just a they/them pronoun thing and you never discuss gender in any way. It's literally irrelevant, just treat that character as one of the guys, I already did. None of the characters in my post was the NB. All female.

I know it is frustrating that nothing you can say will change reality, so I will let you walk out with your silly pride intact. I'll let your drop your retarded accusations against a game you know nothing about. Ta ta.
>>
>>4324059
Nobody cares.
>>
>>4324062
I knew you would make some dumb excuse. Just because the game has an NB character in it doesn't make it an "NB game", in the same that the male love interests don't make this a het game. So predictable.

What a retarded world we live in where someone comes to /u/ and thinks it's fine to have male love interests, but an NB is too far.
Not like I need to convince and idiot like you who doesn't care about yuri, but only about what you can get angry over. Pathetic.

Nope, not reading any of that. You purposely repeated the bait, so it's over. Always the same shit around here.

It's not a NB game, though. I will agree that NB writing is shit writing by default, but in this case the NB writing is limited to one character, which is as easy to ignore as any male character.

The only real flaw with Potionomics is that Anubia isn't a romance option. Brats like her need to be humbled and then get the OneeLoli treatment. I bet they were afraid to get pedo accusations if they did that, even though she is like a 1000 year old Egyptian Pharaoh.
But I guess the biggest issue is that she is the opponent for week 4 so there would only be 1 week left to max her affection out, which is kinda impossible. Endless mode though... that's a different matter.
>>
>>4324093
Probably because she looks like a child

So, dragon age stuff aside....is Sandrock kinda like Rune Factory or is it more like Harvest Moon

More like Harvest Moon. Very few of these indie farming sims go the distance and include combat and stuff, even in Stardew Valley it's rather secondary.

I'm surprised how much I grew to like Roxanne. The rivals to lovers trope was something I just jokingly played with, but she has some surprising depth. The fact that she is a conwoman and a succubus are not used like gimmicky tropes you would see in some Japanese pop culture. Her demon heritage and backstory have way more gravitas and somehow you can see how she ended up on the crooked path despite not being that bad.

Her bonding storyline is about Sylvia being a good influence, without diminishing Roxanne's strong personality. And because Sylvia is the one who initiates the flirting it feels like both of them are on equal footing. Cute.
>>

Wow she actually comments about staring at Sylvia's ass when she goes down the ladder? I gotta play this ASAP.

They are not unless it is superbly gay already and the only subtext is whether these extremely openly gay characters are getting together or not. Even then it is not especially on topic.

Speaking of games with very small bits of lesbian in them. For anyone who played during WoW during Legion and remembers Stellagosa and Valtrois, the blue dragon and Nightborne arcanist who had a brief quest attuning leylines in which they were very cutely snippy and huffy with each other, (leading to some minor shipping afterwards) they canonized that pairing in the recent 20th anniversary event.

Which one?
>>
>>4325308
BG3 easily. Most in depth+longest relationship arcs. Also a much richer game in general.
>>
>>4325308
I mean, I personally prefer Cyberpunk. As far as relationships go anon above might not be wrong, but I really liked Judy and there's some pretty non-intrusive mods for quality of life stuff. Though, the updates the game's gotten have fixed a /lot/ over the years. I'm in love with the aesthetic and I've always loved cyberpunk style so I'm also probably biased. I'm also aware the game doesn't quite do as much to vary the life path options but I'm a vanilla bitch who wanted to be a cocky but reluctantly good-hearted streetkid asshole anyway so it felt pretty good to me.

I'm also not very big on top down turn-based RPG type stuff and honestly, BG3's depth feels kind of daunting to me. I'm not saying it's a bad thing at all, mind you, and I'm sure my concerns that that kind of thing waters the experience down are wholly unwarranted given how many people fucking love the game. But it just didn't really hook me that deeply.

Honestly, just go for whichever one interests you more. Pick a petty reason if you have to.

if it's some 3d western porn slutfest though people might mock your taste
>>
>>4325308
I have not played DG2 yet so I can only comment on the other two, so please take my opinion with a grain of salt.

Of the two I have to take BG3. I dumped 565,6 hours into BG3 while I only played for 101,5 hours in CP. You can pick a lot more yuri options for BG3 whereas CP only offers one gal, afaik. Also it leaves a bitter taste in my mouth that the MC in CP has a guy sometimes calling shotgun in her mind and uses the body for his own depraved pleasure. Also BG3 easily tops with choices, character design, voice acting and story telling. Also Larian Studios provide so much freedom, fixes, patches as well as ingame extensions. They are dedicated to make this a good game (last update: 16.10.2024).
The game is also very, very mod friendly because Larian wants to ensure that you can modify it the way you want, if you are into that kind of thing.

One more thing, we do have a BG3 General here >>4203885
You can look up some of the gals in that thread and maybe make a decision with them in mind.
>>
>>4325308
BG3 and it's not even a question.
>>
>>4325308
If you are satisfied with one really well done romance pick Cyberpunk. If you want more variety but less fleshed out romances pick BG3. Both are good in their own ways though.
>>
>>4321147

please don't remind me that i'm like the only non-man/tranny here

>>
>>4325308
BG3 first also CP2077, both are currently really nic titles after these final patches.
DD2 is shit.
>>
>>4325291
Sure, but these are the most irrelevant smallest side characters nobody has ever though about aside from three rabid shippers looking for crumbs, so this concession is nothing in a game in which all major relationships are het.

Dragon's Dogma, just like the first one, is really worthless for romance. In this case there are two "actual" f/f romances with any kind of meat on them, but it still pales in comparison to basically any other RPG romance.

In a land populated entirely by women, you will guide Missy, an 18-year-old schoolgirl through a series of hilarious and sexy mishaps that comprise her daily life. Deal with cruel bad girls and psychotic teachers at her super-strict all-girls school then explore the world in which she lives and find more adventure. Missy will learn and comment on your actions as you go, developing her own unique relationship with you. Will you play her as a disobedient wild-child and get in lots of trouble? Or an angelic good girl... and get in lots of trouble?

I am going to assume for now that this post is not just bait. If it is, well, shoot.

While I am a woman, with all due respect, please allow me to remind you that this is 4chan. I am under no delusion that anyone believes me as I say such, and thus felt no need to try and correct that pronoun. Even if/when I manage to complete and release the mod, I fully expect that the userbase will accuse me of, or at least suspect that I am, male. Such has become the nature of the internet. (And no, the irony of me posting this response is not lost on me. Consider it a last gasp at trying to reassure myself of my own identity, whatever left of it there may be.)

For those wondering, I have more or less finished 4/6 bachelorettes. I am currently working through Xiao Pai's post-marriage content, and after that Dolce is left. NG+ will follow her, but that will mostly be main story clean-up. I am hoping that I'll finally have a working public version in two-ish months, though I do intend to monitor it for bugs and improvements post-release.

>>4325592
You were doing the right thing by not wasting people's time with asserting your gender before. It is completely meaningless on an anonymous board and anybody can lie about it. Whether people project that everyone is male or that everyone is female, it has zero bearing on the content discussed here.

The only truth is that anons who are extremely defensive about their "true" gender tend to be the opposite of what they say, like the tranny you are replying to. Nobody else feels the need to constantly point out what they claim to be. You never see any guy here cry out when some idiot does the nee-san roleplay with him, so the opposite should also hold true.

I first didn't think much of hippie deer mom, but as it turns out she is really dang cool. I didn't appreciate her deck either until the later weeks where stress is a serious threat.

It's actually shocking how much lore of this world you can entirely miss if you don't level bonds with all the characters. Saffron reveals some insane stuff that you simply would never have known otherwise and which puts the conflict at the center of the world into a different perspective!

It didn't really come up with Roxanne, probably because she lives in the present, but these age gap romances with long lived species do always make me feel uneasy too. I totally get Saffron's fears. I love how proactive Sylvia is to boost her and the relationship too. You wouldn't get something like that from a stupid self-insert.

I really hate how I am this easily influenced by this kind of marketing.

Before even going to school, she already beat up three girls, put lotion on a sunbathers butt, almost got baited by a hooker with a 100% discount and watched a public humiliation ordered by officials. Finally at school, she had to strip to her underwear two times in front of everyone as punishment.

The change between 2D RPG Maker and 3D models is unpleasant. Some 2D sprites have pixel issues and the faces of the 3D models look deformed. The text UI is inconsistent in its size and what's supposed to be inside. Names don't regularly show up or they are just gawker. schoolgirl or another generic term. And is it really correct to say "rub some lotion 'into' my back"?

But this is a wet dream for a person with voyeurism fetish. It has a full female cast and men are only mentioned once in a history book. There are a lot of choices to pick from outside the romance mainplots. The option to turn off the combat is convenient if you don't care for it but it is pretty easy (for now). I just wish the dev stuck with just the 2d. However, the spanking animations are a neat addition. I seriously want to like this game but those models aren't doing the game any favours.
>>
>>4325841
There's combat? The fuck.
>>
>>4325843
Yeah, it's very basic for a RPG. Nothing extraordinary and with the option to turn it off you can pick what happens without fighting. Huge cheat, because you here you can see there isn't only a Win or Lose option but also a third (which would have happened if you slapped her face in the fight).

If you are even remotely interested in micromanagement sims it's a no brainer buy. If you are not good with micromanagemt, they added a Cozy difficulty that makes you feel like you are. The game has a surprising amount of layers and different mechanics that overlap. Theoretically you can play it in completely different ways depending on what you focus on.

For example Luna, the moth girl, is a marketing agent who can influence the prices of the market so that specific potions make more money. I rarely use her services, because I rarely make potions of a specific type en masse, as I prefer to fulfill requests or make potions for the heroes, like Mint, I send on quests for ingredients.

The pacing is generally really good as you got 10 days between each potion contest, so you pace yourself the way you think is best. As long as you make the contest potions by the deadline you can spend all your time just doing bonding events with all the characters. But you will need to earn some money to upgrade your gear at least.

It's both cute and engaging.
>>
>>4325880
I say WOTR. It has more content and more choices. It also has more f/f romance.
The only reason to choose Rogue Trader over it is if you are a Warhammer nut.
>>
>>4325893
Alright! I'll give it a shot again. I had a hard time understanding it the last time I tried and I never got to any of the romance stuff. Thanks for the recommendation
>>
>>4325895
WOTR has a ridiculously high barrier of entry. The first 2-5 hours are really bad and tedious for new players. So much to learn and very little guidance without just straight up reading through all the tutorials.

I always recommend playing the game on a lower difficulty the first time and just trying things out. There are also automatic builds for party members, so you don't have to think about that the first playthrough if you don't want to. The auto-builds aren't as broken as they could be, but they make the characters decent. That might compensate for any mistakes you make in your own character creation. Although the Commander gets so many broken abilities due to the Mythic powers that you can build a broken motorcycle and still win the race.

I know it sounds stupid when people say "It gets good 10 hours in!" but WOTR is a 80-100 hour game (depending on how many DLCs you have), so 5 hours really are not that big a deal for the overall experience.
I am speaking from experience, becasue I bought the game in 2022, played it for a couple of hours, dropped it for 2 years and then tried again this year. I now have 180 hours on my playtime. Once the game hooks you it's great.

If I may make a recommendation for a beginner... try to play the way you want without looking back. Don't obssess over mythic paths you don't unlock. Even the two default options, Angel and Demon, are very good mythic paths. If you want to get all the others as options you need to be very thorough and explore a lot, but it's not a big deal if you miss one on your first playthrough.
If you hate leaving it to chance, you can look up the unlock conditions of whatever path you are interested beforehand and that's also fine. To get the Devil or Swarm path you need to jump through a lot of hoops and they are late game path changes, so you would have to actually plan for them.
>>
>>4325899
I've read about the swarm and the lich path and since both scare everyone away I don't think I'll pursue them.

I appreciate the rest of your advice as well. Maybe I will try a lower difficulty. I hated getting swarmed with enemies. I found being a rogue kinda sucked. Maybe I'll look up some stuff instead of trying to wing it. I've heard a lot of good stuff about it and if the romance is good I'd like to get into it
>>
>>4325902(me)
Also I think I have the edition with all the dlc
>>
>>4325880
WOTR. Rogue Trader's story, characters and setting are good, but the gameplay is straight up poop.

>>4325895
If you think WOTR is hard to understand you have no chance with Rogue Trader.
>>
>>4325907
Is it that much more difficult?? I'm not too used to crpgs outside of bg3 and I guess I wanted to get more into them
>>
>>4325902
The Lich path is very unique and something you get basically in no other CRPG, which is why it is highly praised by people who love playing Undead, but yeah it's an evil path where almost all your companions leave you and you cannot romance anyone (Lich doesnt have those kinds of feelings or urges). So for /u/ purposes Lich and Swarm are useless.

If you wanna look up stuff, there are class and subclass guides too. But for your race and character backround etc., please don't think about minmaxing. Just focus on roleplay. The crackheads of the WOTR community will tell you racial bonuses and backgrounds and every single thing must be optimal, but in truth the game is really easy is if you do even halfway decent. Especially on lower difficulties. The highest difficulties are where you are required to actually use exploits and meta builds just to survive. Not even worth worrying about for normal players.

Oh and just as a heads up, the love interests also have some requirements. There are technically 4 f/f options, but 1 is only available on the demon path and another is only available when your alignment is somewhere between Neutral and Lawful Good. She really hates Chaotic characters.
The other two are technically available on Good or Evil paths/alignments. Just note that if you corrupt the succubus she will never be romancable and just have sex with the Commander, not romance. Game's reactive enough though that if you start evil and go good you can still salvage a lot of stuff.
>>
>>4325909
Hmmm interesting maybe I'll try that!
>>
>>4325908
It's not that it's that much more difficult it's just the system they are using is very convoluted (although this might be just me being more used to D&D/Pathfinder). The combat, I felt, was actually easier than WOTR, just very VERY slow and tedious.
>>
>>4325909
>in truth the game is really easy
>Especially on lower difficulties
No shit.
>>
>>4325915
Nah, there are plenty of CRPGs that are so disgustingly clunky that they are tough as nails on every difficulty. Lots of old ones from the 90s are just straight up broken.
Also if you listen to some serial complainers they will call even easy shit super hard, because they don't wanna try to learn any mechanics.
>>
>>4325917
My issue with WotR (and Kingmaker for that matter) is that the solution to any tough combat encounter almost always ends up "just buff up lol". The difference between going in with and without your entire buff repertoire slathered on your party is wild on anything above medium difficulty. But the process of applying those buffs without one specific mod is horribly clunky.
>>
>>4325919
You also need to debuff, duh.
>>
>>4325919
That's why I said play it on lower difficulties so you dont have to think about that stuff too much. Just being able to play reactive with active abilities is why easy is good for new players.
>>
>>4325848
no shit the developer is using Honey Select 2 animation. Making the art would be very time-consuming

>>4325841
the story has some plot holes and plot conveniences but its still enjoyable. Its always fun running around without panties. The authoritarian government only exists to have sex scenes so nobody should take the story too serious
>>
>>4325911
Hmm I see, okay well thank you. I'll try out wotr and see if I can't get into it and then maybe I'll try out rogue Trader.
I got wotr through humble bundle a while back so I will try it out.

I've also been considering getting pillars of eternity 2? I heard 1 didn't have romance
>>
>>4325932
PoE2 does have no restrictions on gender for the romances. But Pillars of Eternity isn't very fun to play imo, so I generally can't objectively recommend it.
Still, it should maybe not be forgotten in discussions about CRPG f/f romances.
>>
>>4325932
PoE1 indeed doesn't have romance, but it is still a decent CRPG. Unlike the other anon, I would actually recommend PoE2, just stay away from the optional hardcore encounters.
>>
>>4325940
The romance options are also kinda so so

There are a lot of games with male protagonists that have yuri scenes as well (famous one is Harem Hotel)

>There are a lot of games with male protagonists that have yuri scenes as well
Don't bring this shit here. The fact that you even admit to playing that shit is bad enough.
>>
>>4326091
Irrelevant. Male protag games don't belong here. Mentioning the yuri side-content in mainstream games is one thing, but this stuff is literally just het porn with some dude playing voyeur on lesbians or in the worst case getting involved in threesomes with the same girls at some point.
>>
>>4326056
I dont think the yuri landscape is that bereft of games that we need to rely on litteral fetish slop to keep ourselves engaged
>>
>>4326091
They aren't; they're just there to arouse the male so he dicks them harder. It's just a fetishistic scene aimed at het males.
That shit has no place on this thread, not even this board.
>>
>>4326091
Good joke anon, seems you are that infamous yuri hater from /a/ trolling here if you think anyone here gonna check adult 3D games with male protags for some girl x girl slops coming from such titles.
>>
>>4326120
Sorry I live here

Not sure why you're defending bottom of the barrel straight male garbage
>>
>>4326128
I wonder the same. It's like pretending that those softcore Cinemax movies are core yuri media because they have a token """"""""lesbian""""""""" sex scene.
>>
Looks like the ban has run out, huh.
>>
>>4326096
Isn't that what Yuri VNs are already?

Aren't most VNs slice-of-life romances and a couple of sex scenes when you have the patience to get through the dialogues?
>>
>>4326179
You just differentiated vns from what ever the hell yuri university is

But there is still a world of difference between a VN like Lillies of Prudence Prep and this shit namely because there's a meaningful plot and not all of them even have sex scenes you dolt
>>
>>4326186
Obviously, those that had sex were actually fetish fuel for males
>>
>>4325355
The problem with BG3 is that to truly get the most enjoyment out of it you first have to play the first 2 games
>>
>>4326179
Those slice of life's narratives are focused on the romance between women, and the sex scenes are just a climaxing point for that ongoing romance / story. Meanwhile that het porn is just that, het porn with a couple fetish sex scenes.
Calling them the same is like claiming that a plane and an eagle are exactly the same thing because both have wings.
>>
>>4326189
Literally false; BG3 not only is aimed at people who never played a Baldur's Gate game before but it practically holds no continuity with the previous games, to the point where it could be its own universe.
>>
>>4326188
honestly i would rather have just sex scenes than a boring non-story
>>
>>4326189
You really don't. A general knowledge of D&D would probably be more enriching for the experience than playing the first two games, which only really give historical context for a couple relatively minor side characters.
>>
>>4326188
At this point if you don't know what lesbian sex aimed at men look like, you're lost
>>4326192
Then why not just read hentai? The hell you doing complaining about any visual novel at that point, even shit like at your feet still has 20 minutes of build up before they just become a smut fest
>>
>>4326206
it's where the women enjoy sex, obviously
true lesbian would never
>>
>>4326191
It does have plenty of continuity with the previous two games and the fact that you didnt realize that tells me you didnt play them. But as you say, the game is made to compensate for that. If you dont know what the references are you see them as natural part of the universe.
>>
>>4326242
Any surprise that anon gets filtered by a game like BG1 and 2 since it doesn't hold hands?
>>
>>4326259
i don't know about the anon in question but i played BG2 before half the posters here were even born so i wouldn't be surprised if my memory was a bit faulty
>>
>>4326292
BG1 is probably slightly more revelant than 2, I'll give you that. Considering that 2 didn't take place in the city the games are named for. But a lot of events in the game don't really work without falling back to those games. You know, the Iron Throne, the entire Gondian conflict and of course everything surrounding Durge goes back to the original Bhaalspawn saga
>>
>>4326318
Jaheira, Minsc, Viconia, Sarevok... the game features so many characters from the old games. It's almost impossible to claim they are not in the same continuity when those characters keep referencing everything.
>>
>>4326356
The only thing one can say is that BG3 made its own canon state that invalidates some of the endings of the characters. But in the case of a character like Viconia the events as shown in the 3 is that she was part of the group in BG2, but then left shortly after, thus not finishing her character development that came with ToB. Or Jaheira clearly not having been romanced by CHARNAME.
>>
>>4326466
Jaheira's lover is the guy she still references in BG3 and who is thankfully dead.
BG2's characters didn't have canon outcomes for their character paths, so it really isn't weird to have them end up how they did.
>>
>>4326468
They were probably also a tiny bit forced by Wizards to incorporate some of the stuff from the official material. The description of Khalid fits a little too much into how he is presented in the Heroes of Baldur's Gate supplement (whereas Jaheira is clearly just an older version of her 2 design).
>>

>>4326466
Yeah like as a boomer who played 1 and 2 pretty extensively, the characters reappearing in 3 feel more like cameos rather than a continuation of their story arcs. Viconia and Sarevok especially are presented like their ToB characterization just didn't happen. You gotta wonder if Larian had mandates from higher up to include em or something.

The final contest was actually pretty tough. What a great game. Probably has one of the most lovable casts I have seen in a long time.
And the Endless mode is really nice, because you can clean up all bonds, romances and achievements at your leisure. Not to mention every character gets one new extra bonding event!

I think the Luna romance just confirmed that magic babies are a thing in this world. Could it get any better?
>>
>>4326564

>>
>>4326575
No, the only DLC they made just came out and it adds a male romance option/friend/deck. The Endless mode, voice acting and new difficulties were all a free update.
>>
>>4326553
>Viconia and Sarevok especially are presented like their ToB characterization just didn't happen.
At least for Viconia they made an excuse of her having a falling out with the group pre-ToB so that makes sense. Sarevok is most likely the 'mandated' one because it falls in line with Wizard's shitty Minsc supplement which had Sarevok go back to his old self.

Thank you potionomics anon, this might be the greatest game ever made. I struggle to get through a lot of games to get to the romance but this one is actually just a really great and fun game by itself with the /u/ as the extra bonus cherry on top. It has so much personality and on the higher difficulty it has a good amount of challenge to make it rewarding, I literally found myself in the shower earlier thinking about what I want to do for my potion business. And I like how you have to strategize when to take time off to visit the girls and spend time with them, it makes building the relationships feel actually earned and realistic.

Mint is so sweet. Tell me why girls like this get me every time.

nice. finally time to buy
>>
>>4326674
Funny thing is, with the Cozy difficulty they take away that traveling costs time. So that makes all the relationship stuff far easier.
I have only played on Normal, so I dont know how hard Capitalism difficulty really is, but I think I will try it one day. Normal feels like just the right balance.

I also went for Mint first on my one-romance playthrough. But the second time I did the harem playthrough so I could experience all the romances without having to do it 4 more times.
>>
>>4326702
The fuck are you even talking about? The third game has been in development since the second one finished. It was always supposed to be a trilogy.
>>
>>4326740
>Sylvia having the most L rizz of all time
Ohh you havent seen anything yet if you think that. Sylvia is a champ, she actually fixes her girls and also is proactive with the flirts.

>>4326797
Every volatile potion has random chance. If you don't want a negative trait you need to not have an ingredient with that negative trait. But you can go to Roxanne in your basement and use her glamour to cover up for bad traits in case you are that concerned about them.
>>
>>4326846
Capitalism feels right to me, normal seemed too easy so I turned it up after a couple days. Even on capitalism I'm making like 6-8k on selling days by like day 16, but it requires a lot more strategizing with Luna to boost a specific thing and juggling Mint's timings with speed potions so she comes back with enough of the needed ingredients at the right hour to brew with the right timings. The biggest challenge right now is Quinn having such limited stock of the rarer ingredients per day.
Whereas it seemed like on normal you could just make and sell whatever and turn a perfectly good profit. The competition potions are a bit harder and the customers are stronger also

>>4326850
I like Sylvia but her pick up lines are painful sometimes I can't lie.

Its a shame its chance based, it would be a lot more fun and strategic if it was like a +1/-1 system and if you want to use ingredients with bad traits you could plan the recipe to cancel out the negatives with other ingredients. As it is now it's not worth looking at anything but the numbers really and ignoring the traits. I pretty much use Roxanne exclusively to deliver custom orders without having to make them bespoke every time

Just play as lesbian rogue in DA: Veilguard, it really is the most fun class to play than boring warrior or mage. I did few hours as warrior, few for mage and settled for rogue. Shame warrior can't use dual wield weapon style for some fucking unknown reason and always needs to use the shield.

Her questline is nice (very worth if you're into childhood friend romance) but it takes a really long time to get there. About 90% of the story is done by the time you can romance her.

Too bad the romances (well story overall) are as deep as a puddle, with Bellara being probably the best of the lot. Which only speaks of the quality (or lack thereof) of the rest. I also hope you enjoy fade to black with perma undies, since Bioware apparently have no balls left

You have to excuse the tourists, they only see lesbians as a fetish.
>>
>>4326964
It really hasn't. Mainstream RPGs with any nudity are still extremely rare. BG3 is an outlier if anything.
>>
>>4326969
That's the point though - DA:O was an outlier in its time, it got news coverage for being shocking video game porn and whatnot.

I don't actually care how spicy Veilgauard's love scenes are, I'm not playing it anyway, but comparing it to the "beloved darling" origins misses that Origins got different reactions partly because it was groundbreaking in its context.

In the same way that Star Trek took extra criticism for their (lack of) handling of gay characters in the 90s because they'd gone out on a limb with the interracial kiss back when that mattered. It was a franchise people expected more from.
>>
>>4326994
Except CRPGs used to be more intense in the 90s with actual nudity, even if it was 2D art.

I dont really care about the weird and removed from reality argumentation that the game is worse because it doesn't shock people... There is no ground left to break beyond just actual Honey Select 2 level porn in a mainstream RPG.
>>
>>4326998
Bellara is cute heathen. Harding also has charm on her own.
>>
>>4326947
>>4326969
>>4326994
It's a step back from Bioware consider that not only did we get Liara's naked blue ass in ME3, we also had nudity in DA:I as well as Mass Effect: Andromeda (with them even bringing in some ex Naughty Dog animator to do the Cora and Jaal sex scenes which were just shy of a SFM sex clip).
I suppose footfags are kind of getting a treat with Bellara's alternate armor being typical DA elven flavour of barefoot, though.
>>
>>4327004
Bellara's hairstyle is kinda unflattering and her wearing it open would do a lot compared to a goofy ass giant bun.

Please cease this waifufaggotry.
>>
>>4327017
Nice to ignore the actual point that Bioware wasn't too concerned of having nudity previously and now the backpedaled to early 2000's era. I know, that's probably enough to make your cheeks heat up, granny, but it doesn't mean it's not a step back from their previous games.
>>

No freak, you going on about hetshit sex scenes and how people should be horny for feet is why you should be declared a waifufag.

The Warden found a cure for their Blight and settled down with Leliana.

Hawke took to traveling with her cute elven GF and helping her people out.

The Inquisitor had a well-earned retirement and helps out her wife, Sera.

And Solas died on the way to his home planets.


This is how DA ends for me. There are many endings to DA, but this one is mine. Veilguard never happened and doesn't exist. And nobody can or will convince me otherwise.
>>
>>4327208
The concept art story of what they had previously planned (Dreadwolf) sounds so much fucking better than what Veilguard ended up being. We were supposed to have a ship as our headquarters. Were working directly for the Inquisitor (having Isabella, Dorian and Morrigan as advisors), would have gotten a Desire Dem-ahem Spirit of Choice companion that would adapt it's appearance to the main character's preferences, a more spirit aligned Cole was to be a voice of compassion to Solas (since that idea still incorporated the Keep). There was even a plot to meet the person left in the fade in Inquisition again!

Fuck, I hope someone will make a fanfic out of it or something.

Does Dokapon Kingdom have yuri?
>>
BG3 question here; how flexible are the romance options when to comes to roleplaying? And how heavy are they balanced on the Good-Evil alignment spectrum?
>>
>>4327508
You can sway almost every companions to the good or evil path. The only exceptions are Wyll and Karlach who will not tolerate a pure evil murderhobo playthrough. You can stay neutral/pragmatic evil though and keep them around.
But the only way to really experience an evil Karlach is to play her yourself as an origin character.

Of the three female romance options two are leaning evil and one (Karlach) towards good. But all can be influenced to be nicer. Either way through Lae isn't exactly a saint and still a bloodthirsty warrior.
>>
>>4327511
Oops. Let me correct myself. There are 4 female romance option. Minthara can also be recruited for good or evil playthroughs now, but she is definitely lawful evil by nature. Recruiting her outside a full evil playthrough is a bit harder too.

Girl at least name one...

P4 and P5 arent yuri friendly, they are all variations of this image. Not sure why you're defending well known dinosaurs, they didn't even start porting games more consistently until Sega bought them out. And I really like their catalogue for the most part

Also consider that Dokopon Kingdom port was probably met with kicking and screaming by their c-suite

And I'm enjoying the P3P content so far, but in the west all the yuri stuff was gutted and had to be restored via modding with the rest of it just grafting on the male Mc's route, like with Chihiro. This is a known fact

I said begone Atlus schizo.
And stop lying about P3P. The Aigis romance is the exact same in JP and EN. Nothing was censored. And it is completely irrelevant to your hateboner for Atlus, because the JP version is still their product.

Finished a winged cloud VN, Sakura Sadist, almost a good VN but of the 3 routes only one of them felt finished (even with the 18+ patch), which is the main canon route.

The childhood friend route was rushed and the poly one felt... gross for lack of a better word. Like no one but the Mc wanted it. I'm down for those types of routes but it only works, imo, when all 3 women in the triangle like each other

Your attempt to pretend to be an Atlus fanboy to deflect the schizo allegations don't work when you already revealed your cards dumbass.
>>
>>4327999
What?

Can you read? I said Atlus hates all homos, and it's clear by their lack of romance routes that aren't het

How would that make me promote het?

Dokopon Kingdom has one that only works when everyone is a female character, how does that not scream they hate us?
>>
>>4327597
If you win as a female adventurer the King does offer himself for marriage, but the adventurer refuses and then the screen still shows the female adventurer with the princess and the King dejected. So it's implied that they still get together, but it's more vague than the male adventurer route.

>>4327601
I have seen absolutely zero evidence of any unique 4 female adventurers ending though.
>>
>>4327995
>I'm down for those types of routes but it only works, imo, when all 3 women in the triangle like each other

Not that I'm aware. Back when I first played it on an actual PSP without mods, it still had the whole explicitly romantic "b-but we're both girls" thing. Elizabeth had her final scene censored in the Western release, but even with that her route is also undeniably romantic.

F/F Aigis romance wasn't gutted. Still, modern Atlus confirmed they wouldn't bring over the femmc for P3R nor its future Answer version so they rightfully deserve to be blamed for yuri erasure.

If anything, Fatlus is keen to continue investing in light fujobait since the Akechi/Joker formula made them popular with female audiences with minimum investment, like not needing to have a female MC.

That said, I seriously dislike any brand defenders on /u/ because they will try to gaslight you on the most egregious dev stunts possible.

Indeed and like I mentioned previously, at the very end of the game your femC can also marry some women. It's honestly surprising that this game is not more talked about in yuri circles. I suppose it's because it never released outside of Japan.
>>
>>4328746
It seems closer to the work being intended to be an episodic release instead of a glorified trailer.
>>
>>4328780
If it were intended to be an episodic release then they wouldn't call it the "full release"; they would call it "episode 1". Instead, the thing is taking the same approach as many modern movies or games like the new Life is Strange of being just a prologue for a future movie / game / whatever.
Night Cascades is an example of something that was intended to be a first episode of a larger series but the developers had the good sense of still making the game a self-contained story with a potential sequel hook rather than just delivering the starting part of an entire story that will never be finished.

Not having the word "Prologue" on the game's title is the actual deception; people very rarely go as far as reading the on-detail description, they always go with the frontpage blurb.

Got myself Pathfinder WOTR not long ago and I need some RP advice;

Which combination of Class/Alignment/Mythic Path goes well/are best suited with the different romances?

For example, I know at one point you have to go drinking with Wenduag and she's generally evil aligned, so an evil martial character will have a smoother time than a good aligned caster character.
Arueshalae can be recruited earlier and gets extra content on the Azata MP and will eventually break up with you on the Demon MP.
Queen Galfrey likes 'em Good 'an Lawful.

I know the game gives you generally gives you a little wiggle room, but i'd rather choose the path of least resistance and gets the most mileage out of them.


P.S; Can a female PC become Nocticula's consort? I've tried tried looking this up, but apparently nobody who's played this game has *ever* asked that. I know HOW to do it, but not that I CAN do it.
>>
>>4329371
Arue = Azata (obviously chaotic good). You can go demon and then redeem yourself because of her and that kinda makes the romance interesting if you already did her Azata path once.

Wenduag = any evil or good. She actually has two distinct romance paths depending on your alignment and you can totally "fix" her. It just takes a firm hand, because she only responds to strength. So dont go being nice to her right away.

Galfrey = Anything non-evil and non-chaotic. Bich cant handle the crazies. Also on the Devil Path you can corrupt her, so you can go from lawful neutral to lawful evil and still keep her as a lover, but the devil path is very different from a normal mythic path and romance, so be warned.

Nocticula = Can be "romanced" by anyone. Bitch is totally a bislut, but actually has a preference for women (she literally has several female lovers in this game alone). Just remember that you are just fuckbuddies. Nocticula doesnt do proper romance.
>>
>>4329379
>Arue = Azata (obviously chaotic good). You can go demon and then redeem yourself because of her and that kinda makes the romance interesting if you already did her Azata path once.
You can also get some extra tibits if you choose Desna as your deity, right?

>Wenduag = any evil or good. She actually has two distinct romance paths depending on your alignment and you can totally "fix" her. It just takes a firm hand, because she only responds to strength. So dont go being nice to her right away.
Which would you say is better? Good or Evil?

>Galfrey = Anything non-evil and non-chaotic. Bich cant handle the crazies.
Even in bed?

>Also on the Devil Path you can corrupt her, so you can go from lawful neutral to lawful evil and still keep her as a lover, but the devil path is very different from a normal mythic path and romance, so be warned.
Intriguing.

>Nocticula = Can be "romanced" by anyone. Bitch is totally a bislut, but actually has a preference for women (she literally has several female lovers in this game alone). Just remember that you are just fuckbuddies. Nocticula doesnt do proper romance.
Finally, an answer! Thank goodness. Since it's not a "proper" romance, I can I do it while romancing someone else?
>>
>>4329390
>Which would you say is better? Good or Evil?
Totally subjective, I cant say.
>I can I do it while romancing someone else?
Actual romances eventually force you to pick one, so even if she is exclusive, you will know. I never tried two-timing.
>>
>>4329393
>Totally subjective, I cant say.
Fair enough. But I can assume it's easier to romance her as a Chaotic Good/Evil character than a Lawful one. I say that because the literally the first thing you have to do to even have a chance of romancing her is to take a Chaotic action.

>Actual romances eventually force you to pick one, so even if she is exclusive, you will know. I never tried two-timing.
Goddamnit. Oh, well.
>>
>>4329396
You can just install toybox and enable the thing that lets you have multiple romances. You should probably install toybox anyway so you can fix things if a romance flag gets bugged or something.

I beat the whole game without toybox just fine. I think people don't realize how many patches there have been since the early days of a broken mess. The game is very stable now.

>>

It's insane how common this was back in the day. Well it's still pretty common. It's like Japanese games aren't comfortable with the protagonist being their own defined character - they HAVE to be some bland audience insert. Just baffling.

A combination of Germany being anal about youth protection and Steam being lazy. Germany itself isn't really anti porn. It just requires that any platform of store selling it to have people verify their age via ID. Steam didn't want to implement such a feature and just decided to gelock adult games in Germany. So it's not really a ban per se. But Steam is also not willing to change something on their platform for one country. Might've if it was the entire EU like with the refund, though.

Pirated it when in came out, might misremember something. MC has a romance with another woman in one of 3 routes + there were 1 or 2 yuri side pairings. Also I think that there might be somewhere romance with the demon(male), but in his backstory he had a woman he loved and she died but he didn't move on yet so not sure about that. About "sisterhood" the witches are all woman BUT there is a troon-witch, one of the side characters (looked 100% male if it just shut up about it) and the writing here is what would you expect. However trannies were still fuming because in the easiest ending for him to get he offs himself.

Because nobody on /u/ would list non-yuri games from a bundle you dumbass. What thread do you thinkg you are in? Oh right, you thought it was normal to recommend a non-yuri game. Maybe lurk for a few years?

Don't even try this shit here. "Not a turn off" doesn't fly on /u/ when it concerns trannies. They are simply off topic. And pretending that a hetshit couple with a """lesbian""" is interesting is the height of retardation.

If you wanna recommend Heart of the Woods you can only do it exclusively for the cis lesbian main couple.

Witch From Mercury's posters were nothing but crossboarders who came here to discuss that show because it was impossible to talk about it anywhere else, be /a/, /m/ or even /v/. Those threads were pretty much Gundam general threads with people even posting their and talking about Gunpla.

They were an example of foreign elements completely uninterested on a board's topic flooding it, similar to /v/ around the time of political elections.
>>
>>4332975
Nah, I mean there was some side discussion but the primary focus was on the main couple for sure. The threads on christmas day 2022 with the stay by my side forever embrace had like 1000 posts in 12 hours all celebrating the yuri.

Clearly you never browsed the threads and went with catalog metrics. That show was nothing but off-board cancer coming here due to the other boards being stupider than usual.

You can go to the archives and check for yourself pretty easily. The big yuri moments in the show created hundreds and hundreds of hype posts.

I remember it being talked about here. Chinese, or Japanese language Isometric RPGMaker game about a girl on a ship and her companions are goddesses. Any chance someone remembers its steam page..?
>>
I was kinda looking into blue reflection 2 since I heard it has yuri but I was told it was kinda meh for yuri content. Is it worth it in your opinion or no?
>>
>>4333052
I love it personally, I really enjoy the yuri content as well as just the game as a whole

As far as yuri content goes it has 1 completely unambiguous girl girl couple and a ton of flirting, hand holding, dates etc both with the main char you play as as well as between each other

The music and mood are amazing, and it's a solid RPG too. I'd strongly recommend playing the first one first for story reasons, everything I said about 2 applies to it as well but it's a bit more fanservicey and it doesn't have any completely confirmed couples the way 2 does so if that kinda thing is a deal breaker you might not enjoy it

I guess I'd recommend it if you like stuff that's very yuri flavored without being hyper realistic about it? i'm not sure how to explain what I mean, if you're the kinda person who wants to see girls kissing and require a spoken love declaration you might be let down, but if you can see and enjoy the yuri that there is you'll probably like it

The first games one of my favorite games ever, just period yuri or not

O its also good if you like magical girls
>>
>>4333054
i realize that the way i worded
>if you're the kinda person who wants to see girls kissing

To be more clear (since this threads full anyway) I absolutely love seeing girls kissing as I imagine most people here do, what I mean is I can enjoy yuri without having to have that, not that I DONT want that just I think between both games there's like one yuri kiss in 2 or something
>>
>>4333054
Alright I might pick it up if it goes on sale next week then. I was worried it was gonna be subtext only. I don't mind subtext only but I'm looking for something to stave off the winter blues this year. And it looked cute and different. I like magical girls too so I hopefully will enjoy it. Thanks for the recommendation!
>>
>>4333060
BR2 has a very strong summer theming so it might be just the thing, I hope you enjoy it!
>>
>>4333048
Do you mean Rainbow Sea? That is Japanese mythology themed with gods and goddesses. However it's not an all female cast and there is only one f/f romance option.
>>
>>4333054
The first game is not good though. It has no yuri whatsoever, not even subtext and as a game it's just meh. Second Light is superior in every way and can be played standalone.
>>
>>4333065
Dang, I felt basically the opposite to everything you said honestly, I enjoyed it as a yuri title very much, and I loved it's weird gameplay systems and how it felt like playing a lucid dream or something. The boss fights are a great spectacle, the music is fantastic, I love that your team is just three characters you have all of the entire game. I actually like it a fair bit more than Tie even, the mahou shoujo theming in 1 is really good too. I guess this demonstrates how everybody will have their own experience based on where they are at in life and what not when they engage with something, I am sorry you did not enjoy your time with the game.
>>
>>4333066
>I enjoyed it as a yuri title very much
There literally is NONE. Not on a single atomic level. The only romantic talk or them in the entire goddamn game is the one hetslut talking about her boyfriend. What have you been playing?
I can pretend to tolerate you claiming that god awful and limited battle system in the first game and the lack of party members are a feature you enjoy, whatever, but do not LIE about its yuri contents. Those are objective.

You downplayed Second Light's yuri immensely in your post too as if you had some kind of twisted agenda against it. I'm sorry, maybe you are just weird, but this honestly read like such a dishonest response to someone genuinely asking about the series.
>>
>>4333073
I apologize, I guess for me the subtext in the first game came through, I dunno what to say really. I didn't mean to downplay Second Light, I certainly agree it has both way more and better yuri, I was just trying not to set unrealistic expectations since I don't know what the person I was replying too expects/wants from a work, some people don't consider stuff yuri unless it has like realistic dating, others are ok with just subtext etc. Heck I think the disagreement we have over the first game is a good illustration of this in action even
>>
>>4333064
>not an all female cast
Goddess forsaken. Thanks anyway
>>
>>4333079
Sorry if that ruined your day, but yeah, it's technically an otome game. There are way more male romance options. But at least the one female romance option is nice and the story is fine.
>>
>>4333035
>That guy you are talking about
>guy
why are there guys posting here and then having the audacity to act like they own the place then?
>>
>>4333078
No, you thinking the most barren almost non-existent subtext in the first game ever constitutes as "yuri" makes you the odd one out. It doesn't display genuine differences in the perception of yuri among the community. Nobody on /u/ considers BR1 a yuri game or even worthwhile for goggling.

Like seriously. Hinako is the least gay character in Second Light. She somehow still comes across as straight in the game where every girl flirts with Ao. In her own game she is even more useless for yuri. There is a literal straight girl dating a boy in the main cast of the first game.
Where in the hell are you sucking the imaginary yuri out of? Lime and Yuzu? Do you have a twincest fetish and just project on them?

If you are gonna make tall claims, back them up.
>>
>>4333175
What happened to /u/ anyway? This used be a fun place with nice stuff like the quest threads and cool homegrown memes like The G/u/ardians, now it's just filled with schizos being angry at everything and boring image dumpers.
>>
>>4333189
Image dumpers have always been around, so let's not rewrite history there.
As for arguments between schizos, those have also always been a thing.
The increase of people who cant follow the board rules is definitely crossboarder influence.
>>
>>4333087
And you're not even pretending so who's the crossboarding newfag here?
>>
>>4333189
>>4333193
It's just a couple of dedicated schizos/shitposter feeding each other.

Honestly, it wouldn't be as bad if imoutos would just learn to not engage with them.
Although, to be fair, unless you frequent here regularly, you might not be able to recognize the shitposters posts from the normal ones.
I'll admit it took me a bit to learn their tells and spot them and even then I still slip up occasionally.
>>
>>4333281
People going on about thread police are a dead giveaway. It's just such obvious bait.
Shitposters who constantly bring up trannies, NBs or some feud with a game company are another clear source of idiocy.
Little Goodie Two Shoes schizo. Self-explanatory.

The mods do ban these pretty regularly, but they always come back.
>>
>>4333292
Don't forget the Mary Skelter 2 schizo.

Eh we have few schizos who either shit on the games so much not liking their content and we also have such schizos who praise the games like they were godly games saving yuri genre where they aren't anything special and ironcially both happen for LGTS and MS2 games.

Don't mention GTA here, I was so fucking excited for GTA6 initilally learning it will have femMC option and then get it broken by the fact they decidded to pair the MCs together as main selling point insetad of making them just siblings for the player to choose who they want to play. Such a copeout to not allow lesbian route ever.
>>
>>4333939
When will you people understand that yuri is a niche fetish and companies won't ruin their maximum appeal big budget game with it.
>>
>>4333948
Plenty of companies put yuri in their biggest budget games, including among their main characters. Rockstar must be one of the last ones that haven't really done so in their last releases right? And GTA6 was basically their only opportunity given the casts of their previous releases. This just confirms what I've known since GTA online that they are one of the worst AAA game devs out there.
>>
>>4333952
The audiences that play games like Dragon's Age have a degree of tolerance towards LGBT content; meanwhile GTA is the dudebro normal person franchise with the biggest mass appeal of all the AAA games; it has no reason to add elements that will alienate said mass audiences.

Well, I finally finished Rise of Ronin. It's fun, and worth playing to be sure, but... Turns out the relationship stuff only plays out in the main part of the game, there's nothing of it in the ending. Matter of fact, there wasn't even an epilogue for most of the ladies at all.

So I guess I was anxious for nothing. See, when I checked originally there wasn't much information out there about it at all, next to nothing about the game's relationships at all except some scattered bits about how some characters would demand you break up with someone else if you were in more than one relationship at the same time, but it seems that's only for some particular characters. For me, I was with the princess and the geisha and they had no problems (Maybe because they're both cat lovers and the geisha compares herself a cat who'll one day be put out as a stray). They have relationship-specific scenes and make no mistake you're still in a relationship with them, but there's nothing about it in the ending.

So that's what I wanted to know about the game and that's what I've found out. Anyone has any more questions about it I'll try to answer.
>>
>>4333988
It's a shame we can't save a certain particular LI option.
I'm still going to romance her in every pro-Shogunate playthrough*.
I think it adds another layer of tragic angst to the protagonist's story.

My headcanon is that, as devastated the PC were oft you-know-who's death, she took solace that at least she was able to give you-know-who one last bit of happiness before the end. Even after moving on to the Princess, she still visits you-know-who's grave.

*Which will be 99% of all playthroughs because I find the anti-Shogunate/Imperial faction to be really unlikable.
>>
>>4334003
Oh absolutely, they're kinda just all assholes. Luckily, the Princess is very charming. I also liked dojo girl, but I didn't realize she could be romanced until way later so I just let it go. The glasses girl who's the wife of the dickhead in the anti-shogunate faction is also apparently romanceable but I'd say that's not worth it. The doctor is probably a good option for any yuri purists out there as she's the one who doesn't have some pre-existing relationship with a man (Princess and glasses are widows, dojo girl crushes hard on Ryouma until you talk her out of it, and Geisha is... well, it's what she's gotta do to keep a roof over her head, man).
>>
>>4334011
Honestly, the only reason, at least in headcanon, my PC has put up with them for as long as they have was because they felt they had to show solidarity with their BFF Ryoma.
As early as Yokohama she was trying to go as pro-Shogunate as the story would allow.
The Shogunate has its problems, the the characters in the pro-Shogunate faction are more reasonable and likable and, in POV, the better faction from a /u/ standpoint, what with the Princess and all.
Also, Shogun has a /u/ in it.

>>
>>4333948
This must be bait. It's too retarded to be a real opinion. Coming here to call yuri a fetish is dumb enough, thinking that big Western games full of choices somehow have issues with allowing female MCs to romance other women when all the big ones lately have exactly that shows a total lack of common sense.
>>
>>4333957
You are a fucking retard if you think "dudebros" want to play as a woman to begin with. And nothing about GTA is "normal". It intentionally is crass and break taboos.
>>
>>4334114
It's not that easy. To get such a specific route to work you should probably already know the game's structure and some paths. It's not a first playthrough thing.
Not to mention that Arue's romance is one of the easiest to fail and you will have to act the opposite of your "evil" character's inclinations at all times with her, which feels unnatural.

Arue helping redeem a Demon KC is cool, but that is not really the best way to romance her is all I'm saying. At the same time it will be very hard to get Galfrey to romance the demon KC enough to last until the change of Mythic Path, so that's also gonna complicate things.
If you get redeemed, the Nocticula "romance" falls through because you not longer get your demon realm.
The only character who is flexible enough here would be Wenduag. Act evil and dominant with her, but slowly redeem her while get redeemed yourself. Kinda works.
>>
>>4334118
Oh...should I try to romance someone else for my first playthrough then and try that on a second one?
>>
>>4334121
....did you read my post at all? I literally explained it all to you. Just don't romance Arue on the demon redemption path. For everything else you got plenty of tips earlier in the thread. I'm not gonna repeat that.
>>
You nee-sans should be taking the Lichpill instead.

>>4334133
What do you think the newly appointed ziggurat receptionist is for?
You simply craving the mundane pleasures of the flesh just shows how small minded you are. People say that true love never dies, and I would agree with a small addition: IT COMES BACK.
>>
>>4334125
I read it! It just sounded like you were saying that it wasn't the best way to romance her so I was thinking maybe you were suggesting I don't go through with that route for my first playthrough is all
>>
>>4334137
No. Thw literal condition for the Lich transformation is that they feel neither emotion nor sexual attraction. Lich KC is incapable of romance, plain amd simple. Hence why every love interest breaks up, or even gets sacrificed for the transformation.
>>
>>4334142
Try romancing her in the intended way before going for a tricky unintended path.
>>
>>4334147
Yeah alright that's what I was thinking was that maybe the tricky path would be best for a second playthrough, thank you for your guide I hope I really get into it this time. I'm thinking about going sorc and maybe with a draconic bloodline?
>>
>>4333751
It didnt. And neither does the remake.
>>
>>4334145
Stop being the fun police and play fucking along.
>>
>>4334374
Playing along in making people play non-yuri shit? You got the wrong sense of humor for this board.
>>
>>4334375
It's a RPG. People should play however they want. Who knows, anon might find it fun from a pure story angle. Going into WotR JUST for the romance is utterly retarded anyway
>>
>>4334376
Wrong. Board.
>>
>>4334381
Then don't talk about WotR here. The game aspect is a bit more outweighing the romance part. And I bet you fucker are the least of help when there's an actual gameplay challenge because
>hurr durr not yuri
>>
>>4334421
I really don't care though? You talk about the yuri or yuri related things or you are off-topic. Discussing paths that lock you out of all romances is already pointless, recommending that people play it is the height of idiocy.
>>
So, from what I can gather about WotR's romances is that Wnduag is the most flexible when it comes to romance, as she can romanced by a good or evil character without too much difficulty either way. Although, I can assume that a LG character might have a slightly harder time. I mean, to even have chance to romance her to begin with you have to perform a Chaotic action.
Aure is definitely tailored towards a Good aligned character and even then, as was said by >>4334118, it's easy to screw up.
Saying that, however, i've heard it's possible to romance her on the Devil MP. Though, I think this is more of an oversight than by actual design.
Galfrey is LG through and through.
Nocticula sounds more like a fling than an actual romance.

Honestly, what is with RPGs and balancing the /u/ romance options towards good?
Yeah, you can romance Wenduag as an evil character (that isn't Lich or Swarm), but if you don't want to her in particular and want something more than a fling, you're going to have a tough time.
>>
>>4334440
I think by most standards the majority of players choose good by default so devs are kinda lazy about putting in evil romance
>>
>>4334440
The crazy evil bitch (no, not Wendy) is for het players only so they can get stabbed and erased from the gene pool.
>>
>>4334461
She's useful though
>>
>>4334440
I don’t think it’s really easy to screw up Arue’s romance unless you lock into one of the no romance or evil routes or continue to be a creep to her after she asks you to stop.
>>
>>4334632
Nah, you have to be basically completely platonic with her at most interactions not to fuck it up.
Like even when it feels appropiate and "noble" to say that she is now human enough to share a normal kiss, that is already way too far into "temptation" territory. It is so easy to not get her true romance ending it's absurd.

More importantly is that to get 3/4 of her true romance flags you gotta have her with you on several main missions. Some people play only with a fixed party and would totally miss that.

Holy fuck, Shadowheart is gay for Karlach all the time.
And I was today years old when I learned that through multiplayer you can actually have endings where companions can romance each other while you play Tav... because if one of the players plays an Origin character they can do that. This means endings where Tav romances Lae'zel and Karlach romances Shadowheart are entirely possible.
Do this game's secrets never cease?!

Would you recommend azata or trickster? A lot of people seem to recommend angel but I feel like angel is too cliche good guy. I want a little bit chaotic good?
>>
>>4334796
Trickster is the "lolrandom meme" route. it's not a good first experience. Angel does have the most going on. Azata is the less lolrandom chaotic route with a bit more pathos.
>>
>>4334814
So I guess I should do angel first? I'm usually not sure about pure paragon stuff but it seems like it's supposed to be the most fleshed out route
>>
>>4334776
Is origin Karlach romancing Shadowheart the recommended /u/ route in this game?
Or is it the other way around?
>>
>>4334822
It's not that important. I played Azata first and was completely satisfied.
>>
>>4334828
There is no preferential way to do it. If you wanna play the self-insert character and romane Shadowheart that's just fine. If you wanna play Shadowheart and romance the frog, that's fine too.
Every origin character has some unique interactions to their relationships. I have seen surprisingly interesting Karlach/Minthara stuff.

Just play who you want (unless it's a dude, then you can fuck off) and romance whatever female LI you think suits your character.

Any good up to date guides for Aure's true romance?
One of the really irritating things about WotR is that it's a pain to find up to date information. It's hard to tell whether something i'm looking up is outdated or not.
>>
>>4334876
Nothing about her romance changed, so all the old romance guides work the same way.
>>
>>4334880
Well, that's a relief.
Did they fix that bug foe Wenduag's where she's supposed to disappear but doesn't? Because one of the guides for Wenduag's romance says there's a point where where you don't take her in your party because she's supposed to be off doing something secret.
>>
>>4334886
I dont know about that. I didnt use a guide for Wendu. All the advice I got was not to be too nice to her and assert your dominance, regardless of alignment.

Blorbo is a legit thing? Ah, I see. I actually did not know that. Learned something new today which I thought was a random messed up, translated word.

I'm totally fine with a badly translated demo but claiming it is "totally understandable" is a bit of a stretch, don't you think?

>we are currently talking about the overall QA of the translation
Nobody was talking about that. You just dodged to that topic, because you had not much of a case. The actual topic was if you could still understand what the game is trying to convey. None of your examples are actually a big deal, especially because most of them are easily derived from context.
So you including misaligned text, squished text, obvious typos, Chinese sayings translated 1:1 and untranslated words from a menu where the same terms are translated right next to it, is just pointless and dishonest.

I do admit some of them are extra nit-picky but I have no idea what they meant with "wake". Do they meant "woke"? Or more like "out there" / "out standing" / "out going"? Would the Chinese use the word "woke"?

>>4335046
One anon said the translation turned bad after an hour of gameplay and another anon claimed it was "totally understandable". Does this not mean that we are currently talking about the overall quality of the demos translation?
I disagree with the statement that it is "totally understandable" because the translation is simply flawed or non-existent. Yes, you can overlook something like typos, squished / misaligned texts and also the cute Chinese sayings but you can't make me ignore text that I just can't read or comprehend even in context.
I have no idea what half of those Chinese symbols want from me.
For example, the donut. Do you pick the right option to eat it or the left? What will happen if you eat it?
Or the "choice" part at the end. What will happen with the second option? The first options tells us there will be a truthful report. In that context, will the second option be a lie or something completely different? And no, there wasn't any "translated text right next to it".

Don't get me wrong, I will still buy this game because it's absolutely adorable but insisting that the translation is anything but bad is sending the wrong message and setting the expectations for other curious anons too high. I'm pointing out those flaws because I hope they will fix them and other people lower their expectations for the current status quo. Better to be pleasantly surprised than throughly disappointed at the end, imho. I'm sorry if this comes off as dishonest, I aimed for realistic.

Found some side yuri in Astlibra. There's this village with your basic Yamata no Orochi plotline except it turns out there's two priestesses and they're in love with each other. You step in and do a rescue so they don't have to die. Kinda cute.

>the donut
If you actually played the game you would now that other food items are translated and that you can just extrapolate what the terms with the literal numbers next to them mean. That's what I mean by a translation next to it.

If you want to complain about the QoL then just do that. Pretending that the translation isn't understandable when I went through the entire demo understanding basically all the actual dialogue and easily figuring out the mechanics means that it is far better than the actual MTL hell I have gone through hundreds of times.

Your standards might just be a tad high. You would probably be the type to complain about Volcano Princess translation and call it unplayable....

It’s on my list of things to get on sale, but I’m not seeing a great sale for BF yet. Three Hopes is $22 right now, though. How’s the gameplay by musou standards? My main experience with the genre is WO3 and Drakengard 2.

Don't play Three Hopes before Three Houses. It's not even worth it for the yuri in any way, so nobody here should recommend it to begin with.

Surprise, surprise... BG3 isnt done after all. So much for the "final patch". Patch 8 is on the way and it adds crossplay and 12 new subclasses. The hell Larian?
I doubt this will affect any of the romances though. You know, beyond the multipayer max yuri thing we dsiscovered recently being easier with Crossplay.

I think the only gameplay change that could still affect romances flavor would be adding Shar as a worshippable deity and Zariel as a patron. You can already be a Gith who worships Vlaakith and that adds some spice to Lae'zel romances.

Let's set aside that this will die in under a year, the yuri would at most be some hints to one of the girls being les like in Overwatch, but even less direct because it's a Chinese game studio/publisher. Any Chinese thing not done by indies has to treated with a healthy level of suspicion.

I played the demo/beta/whatever a few months ago and it was dog shit.
The most boring basic 3rd person shooter with virtually no depth, the only thing it had going was the paper mario shit which was just annoying.

Someday someone will make a Halo clone with lesbians and we'll finally have something good.
>>
>>4335886
I'm on the same boat and it looks like the game had its first major update recently and one of them is the first romanceable event for the NPCs. It used to go up to 4 hearts(?) and now it's 6. I personally bought it since it's 20% off, you probably won't get better discounts for games in EA. Highest is maybe 33%, I think.

I tried the demo, but didn't want to talk about it because of how horribly jank and weird it was... it just felt really bad. But some people who tried the EA claim it's actually good, so maybe those first 30 minutes were reaaally misleading.

I just couldn't believe a game with such a high budget trailer would look this 2005 Guild Wars and play like Divinity Original's Sins leftovers. It's rare that I experience such whiplash.

It's also weird how that other anon is all up in arms about this despite never having played it. All their comments are just EA bad. We know it's EA.
>>
>>4336030
Maybe because half a game is not a real game and you should not get people's hopes up? This isn't some "EA for QoL improvements" case, this game is just straight up nowhere near finished. So no reason to buy it yet.

What kind of retarded comeback is that? Children playing games they shouldnt play is not exactly the "family game" argument you think it is, dumbass.

>>
>>4336046
>Children playing games they shouldnt play is not exactly the "family game" argument you think it is
It is because it's the kind of audience the companies aim their products at and parents are happy to look the other way while their kids have their fun. In a way is a form of "we know you know we know".
Meanwhile the game having two girls or two boys in bed is not something the parents can ignore.
>>
>>4336048
You really are genuinely without a doubt, a fucking subhuman retard, aren't you? Every single argument you make is pure unfiltered bullshit.
Parents buy kids games they shouldnt play because they dont pay attention or care. They dont fucking check what actually happens in the games, that is the entire premise of this fucking "argument" you brought up. The games industry doesnt target children, they target people with money to spare and the only kids who can give it to them are those with parents who dont give a shit.

They will neither care if the game is full of bloody exploding organs or if two anime girls say they love each other. Neither the children nor the parents would give a shit. (You), who is clearly a fucking right wing grifter mouthpiece thinks that everyone cares about your fucking agenda and that the majority of society somehow will go up in arms over irrelevant nonsense like this, but the only ones who actually do are manbabies and right wing grifters who never touch any of these games or even have children. None of this matters in any way. They will be outraged that Rouge the Bat, a children's game character has her back covered one week and already have moved on to another irrelevant thing the next. The grift never cares for long. Right wing outrage culture is as hollow as your skull.

>>4336208
My issue is that on top of not liking VNs and wanting proper yuri games, the game itself needs to be good, especially if it belongs to a genre I'm passionate about.
That's why I enjoyed something like Fear the Spotlight, even when it's very lacking when compared to the average survival horror, while I couldn't stand Crymachina: I'm not a big fan of survival horror games while action games, be games on the DMC / NG mold or Soulslikes, are my shit.

Then you are a moron. VNs are just a superior version of books. Music, (optional) voice acting, visuals, often even routes and choices. And if you are the type who cant handle having variation, play a kinetic VN.

>Give me the rundown on what advantages books have over VN
They're page based instead of individual lines so they are significantly less tedious to read. They aren't 90% by volume really mediocre and awkward dialogue. They have much more variation in setting, tone, and writing style. They don't involve really stupid, time-wasting interruptions (I liked KS, but fuck was it obnoxious having every scene end with "and now the day ended :) here's the calendar, click on the next day to watch another couple's scene and later the actual continuation of the first couple's storyline will show up!").
>Music, (optional) voice acting, visuals, often even routes and choices
None of these are really all that positive. Music in VNs tends to be so fucking mindlessly repetitive and droning that I immediately turn it off; hearing the same 90s amateur, copyright-free-music-esque track loop again and again doesn't make for a better narrative experience. There's good character, BG and UI art for VNs, but let's not pretend it's cinematography or something. Nice sprites over a nice bg are... fine. Actually good CGs, not "this is a nice scene" but visually impressive pieces of art, are a rarity and would work just as well as book illustrations. Listing visuals as a positive also ignores that a whole lot of VNs don't have particularly great looking visuals. CYOA rarely adds much value to a story. The choices are so limited that they fail to really capture any sort of actual amount of immersion ("do you choose retarded thing to do A, or retarded thing to do B?" just do a retarded thing at that point) and the time spent on other routes or branching shit I then have to recycle content to explore would be better spent improving a single static storyline than on padding out "what if!?" versions.

VNs are sort of a bad story form and when they are good it is usually in spite of the format's issues rather than because they are elevated by it.
>>
>>4336308
>page based
And yet you read each line individually. Terrible argument, especially when there are plenty of VNs with instant paragraphs.

>>4336311
>And yet you read each line individually.
Not really, if you're a fast enough reader.
I'm a different anon and I do enjoy VNs but I can only read them in small doses because it is fucking exhausting having to process only a line at a time while clicking constantly. I read very fast and with a book or a webpage my eyes leap around a lot, forward and backward, which may not make any sense to you if you are someone who really does read only one word at a time.
Textboxes are stifling. They force you to focus on only a tiny bit at a time, which is fine for occasional emphasis but over time starts to feel like you're wearing horse-blinders. Unlike the previous anon, though, I find things like calendars to be helpful because it breaks me out of the tiny text box mode for a breath of air. I'm also happy with VNs that have occasional minigames or very frequent choices. Just something to clear my head.

> plenty of VNs with instant paragraphs
Do you mean NVL mode (rare and kind of obnoxious in most circumstances) or do you mean high text speed so the whole line appears at once? Whole line at once doesn't help, it's still too little text at a time.
>>
>>4336363
90% of indies don't make VNs. Most of them make shitty platformers or knockoffs of unity tutorials.
But when it comes to indie games with yuri, it's probably more like 95%.

much more pleasant reading experience if you aren't functionally illiterate and devoid of imagination. you can read at a much smoother pace without having to click through lines constantly. Can be read away from your PC such as while traveling, at a cafe, or outside at the park. Way less eye strain than staring at a fucking monitor for 10 hours straight, which also makes a more relaxing and meditative reading experience. Much wider variety of stories and genres to choose from usually with better prose that wasn't written by an amateur game dev or translated by an absolute ape with N5 Japanese. Can imagine the characters and scenes in your head in much more detail and exactly how you like instead of being spoonfed slop anime CGs and sprites with 3 different poses. Doesn't have to be first person self-insert shit because a novel doesn't need a POV character. VN writing utterly eschews atmosphere and scene setting because the format relies so heavily on visuals, dialogue, and the player character's thoughts. You couldn't just port something like Moby Dick to a VN without it being an objective downgrade, the formats are fundamentally incompatible, VNs aren't just Book 2 they're as different a medium as books and manga.

This post was 100% written by a shut in NEET, probably American by the level of obvious illiteracy and anti-intellectualism.

There is no data that supports your side. Physical book sales have been declining for decades. People these days prefer audio-books and podcasts and other stuff they can listen to while doing something else. The convenience of electronic books on all devices is obvious. Everyone has a phone, but certainly not everyone wants to carry around 30 books.

>physical books still outsell ebooks
While that is already bullshit you made up, fact is that unlike normal books which are hard to copy, ebooks are something people just download. E-books give a lot of people with little money the chance to quite easily read more. So consider all the pirated e-books in your imaginary equation.
You can go to the Adachi to Shimamura thread and I guarantee you that the absolute majority there read sneik's fan translation for free rather than buying the physical books. World's not as stupid as you.

That's... kinda stupid. They acknowledge thast obviously people expect yuri from their set up, but then they chickened out? Is this the Chinese plague again or is this supposed to be meta commentary on the player also being a shipper?

bro is reading children's picture books and pretending to have a job. sad. You're a fool if you think 90% of people read exclusively ebooks on their phone and you're even more of a fool if you think a fan translation of a japanese light novel is at all equivalent to a real book. The fact that every single argument you give is terminally online and completely neglects the fact that people go outside, don't want to stare at an electronic display for every waking hour, don't work at work, and read things other than VNs and light novels is so telling.
You're also speaking to someone who literally owns the physical AdaShima LN which is just the cherry on top

I stopped reading there, because I can already tell nothing worthwhile can follow. Try to evolve into homo sapiens sapiens before you talk to me.

Many such cases. I accept your concession.

>>4336774
>uses the oldest lines in the book that display absolute frustration to getting owned after trolling failed spectacularly
Love to see it.
>>
>>4336599
Yea that's why I'll report back if it's worth a shit

Milf yuri is extremely scarce as it is. I'd do the same if it was medical yuri or disability yuri
>>
>>4336767
I've played Chinese yuri vns, so no

Also tbf, it does say fangirl simulator in the logo
>>
>>4336792
That doesn't mean anything. Some indies have the guts to release yuri, others don't. Playing with fire when you defy the CCP's dictatorship. Not everyone wants to risk it.
The fangirl simulator is about being a fanfic writer/merch creator in the game. That shouldn't in any way interfere with the legit yuri between the characters.

I want to remind you that the game literally treats the other girls as routes to follow and has an affinity score for each of them. What the hell else would you expect but seeing them as heroines? And despite this claim of vagueness, even the demo had plenty of flirting or gay implications. That isn't an accident.

Nothing is worth a bislut protag in a relationship with a male. The literal only way to make this work is if she is just using the boytoy to get to his mom and never once considered crossing any lines with him.
>>
>>4336530
Just don't bother if protag girl crosses any line with the bf. Hell, if he gets more than 10 lines of relevancy shoot it straight to trash

>Way less eye strain than staring at a fucking monitor
Contrary to popular belief, staring at monitors does not directly cause eye strain, unless you ramp up the brightness to eleven of course.
The eye strain you're thinking of comes from focusing hard on something visual, which instinctively reduces the frequency you blink and hydrate your eyes, and which happens just as much when staring at a piece of paper for an equal amount of hours.

I've had it recommended to me before, actually, but the /ulit/ people constantly argue about it. Can't say I've read many gay books, since I pretty much only read fantasy and the couple of yuri fantasy books I've read were rather... bad.
I have read a couple of light novels tho. MagiRevo and I favour the villainess. Both have terrible worldbuilding but they're enjoyable.
>>
>>4336807
That's not true. Screens emit blue light which causes much more strain on the eyes. It's literally a feature of some monitors to emit less of that.
>>
>>4336814
Install f.lux if it bothers you that much.

>While that is already bullshit you made up
Are you truly that allergic to doing even thirty seconds of research instead of just BSing your opinion? Is this what GenZ has come to? I fear for the future of humanity.

... your evidence is "me and my friends pirate so everyone in the world does"?
>>
>>4336839
If you had anything to back you up you'd have actually mentioned it. Your lies are so seethrough, you must be a boomer.
>your evidence
An anecdote, you illiterate cave dweller. An example that can be easily verified on this same board.
Unlilke you piece of shit, who assumes everyone can afford to buy everything, the majority of the world is poor. And aside from the infinite conveniences I have already brought up, most people at the very least have a basic phone or a shitty family notebook, even in poor countries. This is a goddamn gaming channel and you can't even make the connection to video-games, which are mass pirated in the majority of the world and only a small fraction of richer people actually keep the industry going with their sales?

As I said before, you are completely disconnected from reality and substituted it with your own. Book stores close everywhere, amazon kindle and ebook sellers are growing every year. If you want some real big numbers look for book torrents. Maybe then you will finally learn something.

Please, Gabe, give the steam sale girl a girlfriend.

Considering how it's going it would have to be a deer girl.

They are wrong, it's the pinnacle of the lesbian sci-fi/fantasy genre. You can't possibly do better.

Awww, widdle baby wants to be spoonfed? Sorry, you have to pay extra for the mommy kink.

Played through LIS:DE and my god Max is distractingly beautiful. Every time she's in a scene I can't take my eyes off her. It's actually immersion-breaking how nobody else comments on how hot she is. She should have an orbit of simpers 24/7. They literally made her too attractive. For what purpose would they make her a 12/10?
