So this game just got released and i am trying it out. Is there no stamina system here like in all the other mobile games? Usually they try to limit your playtime to like 10 min a day.
>>694827327there isnt but there is afk grinding, so you can just turn off your game/pc/phone and it will do the grinding for you
Buy an ad
>>694827327So who is best girl in this game?
Should i try this shit?ive never played a visual novel before
>>694827654Ruka is best but there's not single girl i don't like
>>694827654Aoi if you talk gameplay.>>694827705It's probably one of the better places to start as far as mobile games go simply for the fact that its animated and has voice acting.
>>694827654russian whore
>>694827327I chose the lolita in the ss selection, did I do well? My cock decided
>>694827327The glasses girl is annoying as fuck. I understand the serious girl trope but they overdid it with her
>>694828087she becomes more retarded with time
anyone got a free gem code?
free 1k crystals when signing up!3klt9rpwsiwdgw6o >>694828686here
>>694827327i dunno why they even put stamina systems in games, everyone hates them
>>694827654the loli witch with the pistol, i got so fucking lucky
>>694828918To make sure people don't burn out and quit,The goal is to make the login become a small daily habit.
>>694827327so the guy who made this is some kind of visual novel legend? who are other people who you can trust to make good visual novels? like the best writers who always make funny/engaging ones that you can trust will be ones you cant put down?
>>694827327bros i feel bad for the lobster girl...
Who is rukas canon wife? or isnt there one
>>694828087Agreed. Anis from Nikke reacting to Neon's retardation and other dumb shit is funny because it happens a few times, but she is also a character besides that.Meanwhile, Yuki>AIEEEEE YOU JUST SAID YOUR NAMES DONT CONSIDER YOURSELVES FRIENDSReacts. Like.this.to.every.fucking.thing
>>694829553It will probably be Yuki if they ever decide to close the story and give romantic resolution.
>>694829109
>>694829728its because only neon is dumb in nikke but everyones dumb in this game except her
>>694829728who is the rapi of this game
>>694829728>Anis from Nikke reacting to Neon's retardation and other dumb shit is funny because it happens a few times, but she is also a character besides that.Nikkefags in charge of having any self-awareness
>>694830201the most boring character in this game? not sure
Did they have the foresight to include stuff that wasn't in day 1 JP or is this yet another game that's destined to die because they felt the need to stay to the original schedule?
>>694830320They included QoL from up to a few months ago on JP and it has content from the first year at launch.
I wish Ruka had bigger breasts
>>694830201can't think of anyone, every girl in HBR has personality
>>694828087Yeah I always find tsukkomi shit annoying but don't mind it as long as it’s kept in moderationBut here, she’s making those joke-killer comments every other second. I’m two hours in, and she must have said, 'And you call yourself an agent?' to the blonde girl like ten times already."
>>694827327there is a stamina system for like the powerleveing type part, but they also give you like 100 refreshes as soon as you unlock it because the game is old.
>>694828026Anyone? Is the lolita good?
at what point does the game get difficult/vg/ said it gets hard but its been pretty easy for me so far. im only new of course so i doubt ive reached the hard part
>>694830661chapter 4>>694830635I think she was good
>>694830303>>694830365seething
>>694827327SEX WITH SCHOOL UNIFORM ON
>>694827327>SelectorWhich girl should i choose?
>>694830742just choose who you think is cutesta healer becomes useful later on so tama is a good choice
>>694830742The defaults become free later anyway. Just pick who you like the most
>>694830870when do they become free?
>>694830635yes shes the best choice if you mean the one with the hat tama.healing is useful in the tougher content
>>694830914We don't know. HBR Global launched with a lot more than JP had - could take years - could come in just 2-3 months. Depends on Yostar and if they try to play catch up with JP
>>694827327Yuki is annoying
>>694831232>>694828087yukibros...
My cute wife Tama loves (hates) vending machines so much.The bit with Ruka explaining to other people the dialogue options in her head that she didnt choose never gets old.

>>694832838is she strong?

>>694833075No lol
>>694833075idk but she looks like this and gives a massive buff that lets my attacker 1-shot the boss after it's broken (in early game lel)
>>694833795yeah its based
>>694833795Thats the thing yeah. If you get her right now she makes the game trivial but later down the line she stops being relevant.

>>694835338shes cute!
>>694827980aoi is OP?
Is this an harem
>>694838545Yes
>>694838542Aoi is the only starter unit we have right now thats still relevant and good in JP even today.2nd place goes to SS gacha Ruka - the rest more or less gets powercreep'd off the lists.
>>694838545Ruka dates and bathes with every single girl so yes
>>694838812>>694838963Based, I will now play your game
>steam release is only in japanese.......
is there actual canon romance involving the characters?
>>694839007>>694828728
>>694839065theres a EN pc version but no steam yet dunno why
i sure love rail tunnels
you know what else burns red?my butt once i'm done pooping haha
>>694839260see a doctor
>>694827327Are the cute gay girls enough to justify the gameplay? How is the gameplay?
>>694839305typical jrpg stuff, turn basedthe story is the main draw, but the girls are cute
So, /v/...do you know what knife-cut noodles are?
>>694839456it's just hand made noodles cause nobody that doesn't own a restaurant has one of those slicing machines at home.
>>694827327How does limit breaking work with the gacha? I know you can get SS shards from doing some content and buy packs with them but how does rolling copies of characters work? Does 1 copy limit break the character once? Do you need multiple copies for higher limit breaks? Or do copies just give you a certain amount of SS shards?
>>694839347Also can you play it not on a phone? I don't like hunching over a phone to play a game.
>>694839574a dupe breaks the character once, but you can break them in other ways too
>>694839574One thing you have to keep in mind is that the "default" SS gacha memoria becomre free later down the line.
>>694839590yeah just download the pc versioni dont have the link but i know its in the op post of the /vg/ general
>>694827327I rerolled a few times but I didn't think to ask, does the meta really matter if I just want to READ THE VN?
>>694839730Why is she so autistic?
>>694839642And what are the rates/pity like?
>>694839715not really
>>694839715Storyfags don't really need to care all that much. It makes some fights easier but technically you can beat those story fights even with low rarity units - might just have to use your brain instead of doing SS automode from time to time.The only reason to care about the gacha is events and high level content - which people do in order to get more currency for the gacha first and foremost.So yeah - if you only wanna read just roll whatever you get and don't worry too much.
>you can't interact with the people inside the domes!Let me guess, this is like with Nier and domes are actually empty and this is just to motivate the girls
>>6948398053%, 150 pityit gives a lot of free roll tickets
This is written by Maeda so i expect this entire alien/school setting to be fake/a fever dream by Ruka and she is actually knocked out in a hospital somewhere fighting actual brain cancer - and this entire fever dream is just her remembering her friends and subconsciously fighting back..
>>694839827thanks and is there a "canon" team for every fight?
>>694840064Yeah and the game will keep warning you if you break canon.Also: Jun Maeda is an autistic person so when characters get hurt and crippled in the story this will effect their actual game units as well so....doing the right story group can later make things harder for you.
>>694839886I'm assuming it's 50/50 on rate-up.
>>694839838And my guess is that all men actually died too
>>694839838Swing and a miss. They didn't go for that one
>>694840146100%
>>694840234What, rate-up is 100%? I don't mean the pity.
>>694840294oh then yes
>>694840403I was gonna say... 100% rate-up sounds way too good to be true. Still, it still seems like a very good and "generous" gacha system from what I understand of it, if it's true that lb1 is the only major upgrade for the characters.If this was a waifu game with BD2 tier designs it would instantly become my new main gacha.
>>69484076550/50 is a Chinese gacha thing. Japs don't have that.
>>694840850But you just said the rate-up is 50/50 (not the pity).
my waifu...
Too bad the game isn't R18.

why is there no futa porn for this game?

>>694839065Steam version is the original japanese/kr/cn release version, english version is a new version by yostar so it's a separate game

What's the optimal reroll? I saw some video but it was dogshit, it was messy as fuck and the guy was rushing through everything.
>>694852093optimal units, or optimal route?
I'm playing with the default team, fuck the gachaniggery.
>>694852450atleast use the gacha to pull the rare versions of the default team
>>694852518Yeah that's what I'm doing, already have the loli and Ruka SS.
>>694852248Mostly the route. I checked the tier list, both the current and JP one so I'm guessing the main reroll targets are Seika SS2, Erika SS1, Yingxie S since they are the only ones still relevant on JP according to that tier list but if I'm wrong then lemme know.
>>694853008sign up with your email.use this code for another 1k gems 3klt9rpwsiwdgw6o press skip tutorialpick whoever you like from the selector but tama is probs bestroll either the step up banner or the first banner (first one gives you better chance of seika and erika) but step up better value per gemif you dont get who you want go to settings, data, delete accountthen go back to the main menu, use the same email you did but add +1 at the end, like anon+1@gmail or whatever, and it sends you the code to your normal anon@gmail, and then log in again. just keep adding a new number after every reroll, like +2 etc
So I finished Mari's event and unlocked that fight that gives you x3 tokens and ends in two days. Should I be burning all my lifestones in that shit?
>>694853385Ah ok, figured. The guy just made it confusing cause he didn't know what he was doing and after he did the rolls he kept clicking a bunch of shit in the menu.I wonder how many instances of this I can run.
>>694853451i could your question into the /vg/ general, im sure one of them will know
>>694827327So it is a gacha or not?
So if I have an SS unit, upgrading its S or A version is a waste, right?
>>694853451id do it atleast until youve unlocked the summon tickets>>694854676yes and no
>>694854676Gacha VN.
>>694854704sometimes the S can be better or do different thingsbut 95 percent of the time yes
>>694854704>>694855243From what I understand you cant do anything with dupe materials unless the base card is maxed, right?
>>694854704if it says "exclusive", like the minor stat bumps you can upgrade. but i think you can still get the skills and put them on the SS.

>>694858068I'm sure you can get a glimpse when attacking with Megumi, but I'm too lazy to record it.
>>694857470Pretty sure those are tied to the memoriaThat said - Dress/Alt versions get the ultimates from defaults later down the line - but not the other way around. Would suck for people who really like the classic school uniforms.
Is there any gameplay?

Anyone here managed to install it on a Steam Deck? I got the launcher and even downloaded the files, but it gets stuck on the installing part. Been there for 2 hours now.
>>694862631Won't work cause the PC version just like the Steam JP/Cn client uses kernel level anticheat which is blocking Linux.
>>694862775Some people on Reddit are running it.
>>694862987Havent seen anything but i guess you can install Waydroid or Anbox on your Steamdeck and play the android version that way?

>>694869364Can take a while. The thing is just slow. If you check the install folder you see that its actually doing stuff.
Can we all just take the time to apreciate the fact that /v/ can come together to share their love for a yuri vn despite the fact that seething faggots on this board would have you believe that nobody likes yuri but trannies
>>694869619It's not really a yuri VN, it's yuribait.
Megumisisters.....
>>694869619I don't care one way or the other about it being yuri. It's a Jun Maeda VN, I'd still be here just the same even if it was yaoi.
>>694871616Is he really that good of a writer? This and Angel Beats are his only works that I've been exposed to and I really didn't like the latter very much. HBR has been really fun so far though.
H-holy based...
>>694859118You click on "auto on" and wait for it to end.
>>694871936He really is that good if you ask me.I'm guessing you mean you saw the anime of Angel Beats?I vaguely remember that being OK, but it's his VNs that really shine. Kanon, Air, Clannad and Little Busters are true classics as far as I'm concerned. The Angel Beats VN had the potential to be good but sadly was never finished.
>>694872329kek
>>694872559Yeah, that's what I meant. But anyway, I liked this so far. It's nice to know that the main writer has a good track record. Hopefully that translates into making the story good unlike FGO's. Then again, that one has multiple writers and not just Nasu.
>>694872559>his VNs that really shine. Kanon, Air, Clannad and Little Busters are true classicsdude, that's "romantacy" for men, or less than men if you think it well...
>>694863404DoneHere's mine0h7iloyc6xzsqww8
>>694874152I know how it goes. Admitting to liking anything here immediately queues up some retard to shit on it. Next time can you do it a bit more coherently though?I lost a few IQ points deciphering that comment.
>>694871936He makes a cute girl and then kills her in a cruel way. Idiots think that being sad is the peak of writing, so they are very impressed by this simple trick.
>>694875884Why not try reading them and find out if you're right?If you're hovering around a Heaven Burns Red thread you must be at least a little bit interested in his writing. Either that or you're really into mediocre gacha gameplay, of all things.
Sisters, I can't decide. Tell me who my favorite character is right now.

>>694872559I could never get into Little Busters but I love to reread Kanon slowly over a few weeks in bed in the winter when it gets cold and dark outside. Almost time for it too.
noooooooooo
>>694877846Sounds extremely comfy.I never got into Little Busters the first time I tried it either strangely enough, although I ended up enjoying it later. I think the big weakness of it and what put me off compared to Kanon and the other older VNs is that the protagonist is so bland compared to Yuichi and the others. HBR thankfully seems to have gone the direction of the older games, with a more characterful protag again.

>>694827327I'm enjoying it so far, but the portraits are so painfully obviously AI-generated that not seeing any controversy or bitching about it anywhere makes me feel like I'm going fucking insane.
>>694881505this game was made before ai drawings were a thing
>>694881505i think that's just yuugen's art style dude
>>694881505This game was released in early 2022. If they really are AI generated, then Key has been stealing technology from the future.
>>694879389Yeah Luka is great as a protagonist, but I feel a lot is also just that all the characters in hbr are pretty fun and how they interact with each other, even if their main personality is just one or two gimmicks (until they have their own sidestory or chapter.)She got a lot more focus in the latest chapter on jp too.I've seen people praise Little Busters so much so I should give it a try again sometime, it's just such a time investment

>>694881664>>694881732>>694881764>2022I... guess? Like yeah, if my memory's right then this level of AI art wasn't around until 2023. But also, the VN portraits are so fucking overstuffed with AI-isms that it drives me nuts. The eyes in particular are an inconsistent nightmare and some details like the bow ties have utterly nonsensical details. I get artists making mistakes and I've previously defended plenty of artists accused of scamming with AI generation over small inconsistencies or stuff like bad fingers (drawing hands is a pain in the ass), but EVERYONE introduced in the tutorial so far has consistently repeating problems that hint at AI generation.
>>694881134ALL OF THEM
>>694882497Checked some screeenshots again and I feel like you're just overreacting on that.I actually like the rough look but maybe on a big screen in high resolution it also looks worse.
>>694883230I just got to the gacha part and now I'm even more weirded out because the unit splash art very obviously doesn't have those same issues. It's exclusively the VN portraits.
>>694881505>>694882497You're retarded.
>>694882497Look at this AI art Yuugen put out in 2015.

>>694827327this is probably the first Japanese gacha I've ever played, mostly been playing chinese and koreans. Have I just been missing out? This is probably the best gacha I've ever played and its one of the best jrpg I've ever played.
>>694886972It's cause it's a VN first gacha second instead of the other way aroundNgl, didn't expect writing to be this enjoyable, cause I haven't exactly followed JP version>best jrpgNah
>>694886972The game is good despite being a gacha, not because of it. It'd be even better if it was just a VN like the old Key stuff, or even a story heavy JRPG.
