what's good about this series? I thought it was an anime but I only hear about the games atp
kusoge
>>735838525But enough about FF10
>>735838509underage girls
>>735838509magical girl rpgaesthetically beautifulgood story
>>735838509yuri
There are two other threads right now, another one may not be necessary but okay.>>735838509The music, the graphics/ art style, the characters...even the gameplay in the sequel, at least if you prefer ATB combat.
>>735838393I know that it's a bikini but that top reminds me of Hinako's bra...huh.
>>735838509Music and art style mostly. First game is very barebones and the combat is only tolerable, but has neat bossfights and okay writing.Second is more focused all around.But most importantly fan service and Hinako's fat honkers.
>>735838393I really really like this sample
>>735840684>Hinako's fat honkersA few characters have bigger breasts.
I wish the girls were gayer
are there straight options or is this yuri only?
>>735838509fanservice, except it's censored...yuri, except there's a male character who everyone wants to fuck...
>>735841954This is a very confused franchise. This compilation is made of four games three of which are 100% female characters while the remaining one is 99% female characters and a male MC who was conceived as a harem lead, but they removed the dating scenes in this version.
>>735842167Forgot pic.
>>735842020Yuritards getting cucked by self insert male mc in the gacha was pretty funny
>>735842167>>735842243Wouldn't kill them to just sack the shit male MC? I heard that the gacha was supposed to have a female MC but DickMM wanted a male one instead
>>735842464You hetfag getting cucked by yuri is pretty funny
>>735838393Can I have explicit lesbian sex in this videogame?
>>735838393Censored lolCucked country
>>735843086It's something developed specifically for consoles rated CERO C and T for Teen, of course not.
>>735838393Sex with inflatable orca
>>735843012I think they'd have to rewrite and rerecord the girls' dialogue so no, too much effort.
>>735843568Not Hinako? That's different.
>>735844002No I'm here for the pooltoys
>>735838393>JulySTOP. STOP IT! STOP RELEASING EVERY FUCKING THING IN JULY!!While I didn't buy Tie recently, I am mildly inconvenienced. But I'm curious as to how Ray will be adapted. Doubt it means a BD though.
>>735844091It's just the part at the end where they go to the Common and fight Shino and corrupted Mio. Don't expect anything more than an hour or two.
Blue Reflection makes me. I wish I could go back in time to high school and relive being a teen again.
>>735844260Aw. Still an excuse to rewatch Ray and it's god-tier OP and EDs.Hoping for Yumia tier BR after its sequel, hopefully.
>>735844260>Ruka>memoryholed after Ray>Niina>seemingly not even acknowledged in Quartet>you can romance both Hiori and Uta in SLBrutal.

>>735845815......Okay?
>>735845615what i dont like is how their butts are partially showing above the waistband of their panties. pantsu just doesnt do that. its like theyre wearing pantsu that is a few sizes too small or something
>>735846068Yeah, their butt cracks are visible...huh.
>>735845815This is me when I come to BR threads and say I want to sniff Hinako's panties.
>>735840684>>735844260give it some more time and they will even censor girls handholding because that could imply sexual attraction between them and (you), the filthy otaku, watching high school girls basically having sexual activities.
>Chad MC is backMY SOUL'S ON FIREhttps://youtu.be/FcmTGOd2ZuA?si=onsH9l28_fGn62B8
>>735847251Can't wait to have an HQ version of it.
>>735846956>Yeah, their butt cracks are visible...huh.Yes because theyre wearing pantsu that's too small. it kinda takes me out of the immersion because they all wearing the same style too. do they all shop at the same store and buy the same pantsu at the same time???
Is there any chance it'll be uncensored at release?
You guys think the Ryza DLC dreamscapes will be included ?
>>735847857Lime's panties have a unique desing compared to the rest of the cast at least. Besides Lime, yeah, they wear the same style, just with different colors and/or patterns. I don't deny that it's easy to joke by saying that they bought their panties at the same store at the same time.
>>735848152They usually keep the Gust crossovers in rereleases. Firis DX had Hinako's uniform.
>>735848470Oh, and more importantly, Lydie & Suelle DX had the BR and NoA painting worlds.
>>735847889According to the promotional material (censored scenes already shown), no.
>>735847857Clearly it's just the style at Hoshinomiya right now. All the cool girls are doing it.I get where you're coming from, though. I don't have much interest in stuff like the Blue Reflection costume DLC because it would be weird for Hinako to show up to school wearing a swimsuit or bath towel or something. Even if I like the fanservice aspect, it bugs me if it breaks versimilitude too badly.
>>735847119And Lime's panties too I assume...
>>735849341Yes!I want Lime to berate me.
>they actually announced a game
>>735848470>>735848537Good to hear. I could never unlock much in those dreamscapes so that will be my main goal on replay.
>>735849568It's Lime, she would do that.
>>735849269different colored panties and styles would be great dlc.
>>735850136Thank god!
3D Reflector Ruka
>>735850335Ruka showing cleavage? Huh, maybe she's more endowed than I thought.
>>735838393how come this shit doesn't go on sale
>>735850302Heh.>>735850870The imminent release of Blue Reflection Quartet, that's why.
>>735850221That...could have been DLC for the first game in 2017 but several years later, definitely not.
>>735851329>Blue Reflection Quartetwtf I thought this thread was just talking about how Blue Reflection would never get a new game
>>735852120Well it's not a "new" game.
>>735852237I mean it's proof the franchise hasn't been forgotten
>>735852283>>735852237you guys talking in these threads were absurdly doomer about how this IP was absolutely dead in the water, never to be seen again like earlier this month, and look what happenedyou didn't even have to wait a decade for some kind of revival, literally less a month after all you guys were constantly dooming you got an announcement of a new game>>734006959>>733608264look at this dooming, how wrong you were
>>735852237they're adapting the anime into a game for one of the four games in the quartet it seems? that's functionally totally new at least as far as videogames go
>>735852643It's just one extra area and character, it's on the level of a DLC add-on.
So what is this gay persona for pedophile transbians
>>735853039I'm curious too. If the game is good I'll get quartet in... jeez 4 months that's a long wait
>>735853039it's persona for mahou shoujo otaku who wants to sniff panties (me)
>>735853039It's a magical girl game in the 21st century.
>>735853574that's the vast majority of magical girl properties though. all 20 seasons and 1000 episodes of precure are 21st century for example
>>735838393Hinako's butt.
whats the cheapest way of getting 2. if these og games are getting delisted for censored slop, well i might as well get them while i cani can get 2 off of humble bundle for $50.99, which feels so expensive still
I can stomach the censor if the pc port is better than the original, still haven't played the first one because of that.
>>735854490she is only 14!!
>>735855620*15. I saw a screenshot a long time ago that confirms it, but I can't find it and I've never seen that dialogue in-game, it may be the result of a table chat conversation and one of the other topics.
>>735854963That does sound like the cheapest way of getting the second game.
>>735856125fuck mei guess i will wait closer to release to see when exactly the games will be delisted.i am kinda weirded out by how i dont think we really know what gust is doing atm? i dont think we know anything about what their next game is, even though its likely another atelier game
>>735846068>>735847857That's butt cleavage, japanese like that stuff
>>735838393Ass too big
>>735838393censored garbage thread. you should be ashamed of yourself for supporting this
>>735856485You think it should be smaller? I don't think it's much bigger than her butt here >>735844002.
>>735838393Censored trash.
>>735857907It'll be a censored release, yes...
>>735853342lol. What about Shihori's panties?
>>735858443Shihori was very cute and one of the girls I maxed the bond with. She's a fellow pervert and underwear appreciator, the scene where she steals Hinako's underwear and the one where she checks her panties made me really horny. I'd sniff hers too but I bet she would probably get a crack out of nerding out about panties with me I guess.Or not since I'm a guy...Thanks for humoring me again, anon.
Devs need to be punished for thisSpitting on the hard work of the female devs well designed underwear and nude models
>>735856283They did announce ahead of time that the original Ryza games would be delisted when they announced Ryza DX, but they didn't make such an announcement for Quartet. At this point expecting a delisting is more an assumption, but it's at least an educated guess since they've done it for basically every game they've done these enhanced rereleases for.
>>735838393Blue Reflection? More like Blue Balls!

>>735838393false advertisement
Can you give me a qrd with a list of ways to play their games in their unadulterated forms, with names of the best translations or localizations, with the best platforms to play on? No need to include links i can find them
>>735860584>unadulterated forms>translations or localizationsoh no no no no no
>>735858593Okay. It's not necessary but I want to ask, what do you think of Yuzu's panties? I think that they look very cute and feminine.
>>735860683Gomenesai can't read nipponese
>>735860905Yuzu as a whole is really cute and she's growing on me more and more recently.I love the frills and the bow, bow panties are classic. The flower print is also quite good.Definitely sniffable.Also damn, most of her buttcrack is showing there, that's pretty hot. I never noticed it...
still no playable utathe series is doomed
>>735861084Well, multiple characters wear bow panties. The characters who don't wear bow panties are Kei, Rika, Kaori, Fumio, Rin, Ako, Shihori and Mao, apparently. Everyone else wears bow panties...Sarasa's panties even have two bows!And yeah, It seems that Yuzu's panties show her butt crack a lot, more than other characters in the same game. For the most part the characters have their butt cracks visible when they wear panties but Yuzu's butt is very visible with those panties...I agree that Yuzu can easily be considered really cute as whole.
>>735861586Oh I'm aware, bow panties are pretty common after all.For Yuzu I really like her reflector outfit. Her leotard thingie was cute and she flashed her crotch a lot in battles. Her little idle dance was also super cute...Also I really like Chihiro's panties but she's so cute I feel bad about doing disgusting stuff to her..
>>735857253Yeah it should be smaller, the second picture looks more like the product of lordosis by the artist than the buttocks being bigThis is how games start getting pozzed
>>735861790>Also I really like Chihiro's panties but she's so cute I feel bad about doing disgusting stuff to her..And to think that Chihiro is one of the most endowed girls in the game...she clearly has boobs and her chest is bigger compared to several characters...This is fan art of course.
>>735847130Do you get off on fantasizing about these nightmare scenarios? Don't you have anything better to do with your life?
>>735862301It's true, I can't deny she's really really hot, but for some reason I just feel bad when I think about perverted stuff involving her.This also reminded me Kaori also flashed her panties everytime she triggered her abilities, I'm not a big fan of her underwear color but it's nice getting an unintentional pantyshot!Sigh, there I go going autismo for girls undergarments again
>>735861214She's playable in the mobile game
>>735862441>I can't deny she's really really hotHer chest combined with her very shy personality and pigtails I assume. My headcanon is that she's on the autism spectrum besides Yuri. ''There I go going autismo for girls undergarments again? Haha, it's fine, that's what I would say at least, it's easy to discuss that part of the game because...every girl wears unique underwear, even though Blue Reflection will be censored for the new release as part of Blue Reflection Quartet, it's obvious that they put effort in that part of the game, they didn't had to do it, but they did it, they gave unique underwear to each character.Rin's underwear looks like something she'd like to show to someone else, which may have been intentional considering that she's in love with a boy (if she's showing off, it makes sense at least). It accentuates her body and it's beige underwear.
Official art.
>>735862946Beige is boring for me, like Rin was, sadly. Here where I live beige underwear is considered something old women wear, lolHer bra is kinda cute though, I like the little frills it has.Yuri's was accentuated by the fact she wears pantyhose which is a big turn on for me, her antics were pretty cute too. Her taking out a fucking machine gun cracked me up as well.In regards to Chihiro it's actually her shy personality that makes me want to protect her instead of doing terrible things to her, but yeah, her soft looking body and cute twintails are menacing to my wellbeing...It really is a shame the game is being censored in the rerelease, but at least there's a faint hope for a new game in the horizon...I love magical girls as much as I love pantsu so it could be an ok tradeoff for me.>>735863168I don't want to fuck Chihiro I don't want to fuck Chihiro I don't want to fuck Chihiro I don't want to fuck Chihiro
>>735863226Huh, I see. I mentioned the part that it accentuates her body because, being beige underwear, it looks like her skin, it may even give the impression that she's naked, so, it's something that accentuates her body at leasts, it totally looks like underwear that is meant to be sexy, even compared to what the other characters wear...some of them. Yeah, with this imminent release, a new game is not impossible, there is hope.
>>735863528I can see the idea, she probably wants to show off a bit for the guy she likes. It DOES look good but I really don't like the color...Thanks for indulging me again anon, our conversations are always fun.
>>735863725No problem.
>>735838393>>735842243BR is totally fucket, we can only hope that the modders become interested in doing a more in-depth job with the two PC games.
>>735860683I's not saying much but being exhaustive it's this:-The PS4 version of the first game is the best version-On consoles the PS4 version of Blue Reflection: Second Light is the best version, if you want to play it on PC, I've heard that it has a good PC Port and may be a great choice if you want to play the sequel on PC.Blue Reflection Sun wasn't released in the west. Both console games have translations with many typos. They don't have English voices.
Happy Birthday Lime!
>>735866404I wish I was that teddy bear...
>YuriNo thanks, I don't like homo stuff no matter which flavor of gay it is.
>>735866540Don't play Blue Reflection: Second Light then.
>remove all bonding/dating events with male mcAt this point they should have just removed him.
>>735866020If there's something we can all agree on is this: The announcement of Blue Reflection Quartet will give us more fan art in general, not just safe for work fan art like this image, and that's great, the announcement has revived interest in the series and some new people are looking at Blue Reflection now.It's what always heppens with the announcement of a new game or re-release of course, to an extent it always happens.
>>735868180This shit will flop day one, they pissed off Yuri fags and ecchi fags in an already niche series.
>>735868354Who else plays these games?
>>735868354I plan to get it but I have to say it's not a deal breaker for me because I've already finished both games though. And yeah, Can't argue with that, *yuri fans and *ecchi fans aren't happy.
>>735838393Underwear.
>>735868354Apparently some people on resetera will play it, they are very happy about the censorship and want the rest of the games to be censored as well.https://sys.4chan.org/derefer?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.resetera.com%2Fthreads%2Fblue-reflection-quartet-will-be-available-from-on-july-30th-on-playstation-5-switch-switch-2-steam-making-all-4-previous-titles-playable.1475188%2Fpage-2%23post-153124360
>>735838393I'm surprised they weren't going to memoryhole SUN and pretend it doesn't exist given how vocal some players were to that game.
>>735868753Ako's is kinda cute, been appreciating it more and more. Love the polakdots.I bet it smells good.

>>735868889Eh, if there is a girl whose underwear may smell good that girl is Shihori. She loves fashion and what not, it makes sense if she wears perfume and or if her underwear doesn't smell bad, it's Shihori.
>>735869212No anon, I don't mean "smell good" like that...
If I buy steam keys of the games off some third world key site before they get delisted, will koei get an money? I don't wanna give them a cent but I feel bad pirating originally games with some lewd content.
is the combat any good? now that it's confirmed nep8 is action slop I may play blue reflection to cope
>>735869282...I see...
>>735869310The short version is this: Both games are easy especially on lower difficulties, the first game has turn-based combat and Blue Reflection: Second Light has active turn-based (or ATB) combat.
>>735843079>HetfagWhy is this even an insult?>"Haha you're normal and straight!!!"LGBTards aint even human at this point.
>>7358693101 is genuinely a bad game desu, the nudity and girls are alright and the ost is good. Also the PC port is bad. I dunno about 2, didn't play it.
>>735869397Sorry to disappoint...
>>735868976Yeah, but how many resetera cunts exist? Like hell, people ITT are talking about how they are toning down fucking SL. Also, apparently there won't be any DLC included as well. Did Gust/Mel get replaced by a bunch of doppelganger retards? Why should I even buy the game then? Releasing the blu ray of Ray would be better than this hell.
I am curious how milenial/gen x otaku feel about modern JP and it's censorship for basically all jp vidya nowadays. I would probably be dejected watching a medium I liked get raped.
Can someone make an "if only you knew how bad things really are" edit of Mel? You can basically use the whole stream because Mel looked outright broken the entire time.
>>735869556If we count that thread maybe 7 people... Gust or KT has lost the plot. I am still confused about why atelier yumia has very lewd promotional material and some fan service in game if this is what they are doing to BR.
>>735869715Even Quartet has fairly lewd promotional art. OP pic rel for instead. Gust always does that though. I remember /v/ cooming over Sophie and that was a shit game.
>>735838393Even as a pretty big fan of Blue Reflection I'm kind of failing to see why I'd buy this. I don't care about the fanservice in the first game (Hinako's reflector outfit is far better than any shower scene), but I'm against censorship on principle so it's still a negative. The extra content... I don't give a shit about Sun, and it sounds like the Ray adaptation is the least interesting part of Ray they could have adapted. Getting to play through the Reflector on Reflector violence that made Ray unique would have actually been cool, but I guess they couldn't half ass it by reusing assets.
>>735869715None of what they're doing recently came close to BR fanservice. I said it before, that you cucks are too easily content with dumbed down lewdness like modern atelier and didn't realize how it's all watered down garbage because you're newfags who never play old Atelier and old Gust games.
>>735869898Full on censorship + a male protag. Maybe gust wants this to flop.
>>735869939I agree with you anon and I am not content. I just am saying I don't understand why you would censor the shit out of BR1 yet have Yumias puffy vulva in promo art for atelier. They both cater to similar audiences.
>>735869939Were old atelier games even that lewd? Nothing in Rorona compares to BR1 or even 2 even I guess.
>censored>also adding a malekek, must be an April fools joke
>>735870068Less so than Blue Reflection, but the Arland games are notably more fanservice heavy than more modern entries.
>>735870068There was nudity obscured by steam in Arland.
>>735858617The KT president is a kike cock sucking traitor that wears his world economic forum badge in all his recorded videos.
>>735870893It's not...
just checking out the longplays for this game. seems nice. too poor to buy it right now though.

>>735870068Try Totori.
>>735874318The art with her big boobs too.
>>735868753What's sexy about these skeletons? Pedo are so weird
>>735858617I'm so fucking tired man.
Which one and which version do I play? Are they all censored? How are the mods on PC? Which is the best one and is it worth playing in order?
>>735876329>Which one and which version do I play?Only the original and Second Light are in English to begin with.>Are they all censored?Yes. The original was censored in localisation, Second Light was pre-censored in development and censored again in localisation, now they're both double-censored and Sun will be too.My advice is don't even bother playing them, just listen to the soundtracks.
>>735876329>Which one and which version do I play? The regular versions you can find on all platforms>Are they all censored? No, the "censorship" is in the second one but it's baked in and not that bad>How are the mods on PC? Not a big community but there are some>Which is the best one and is it worth playing in order?As most games it's better if you play in order, but Second Light is a better game overall. Start with the first one if you're in it for the relations, school, etc. If you're more into combat and exploring ethereal worlds, Second Light is where it's at.
>>735875029Fatfag need not reply. You faggots aren't going to outlast your 40 anyway
>>735877724Kokoro is healthy!
>>735876676Thanks, I got into mahou shojo a few years ago and I really dig the aesthetic after of ignoring it for so long, any other recommendations for games?
>>735875029In this case, the sexiness and/or appeal is mostly the fact that each girl wears unique underwear.
>>735868354Nobody cares about you fags.
>>735876676>No, the "censorship" is in the second one but it's baked in and not that badLying and downplaying censorship, name a more iconic duo.

>>735856349
>>735881719Damn, as cool as this release is in concept, they're doing it in the lamest way possible.
>>735861214She'll be the protagonist of Blue Reflection 5 after Quartet becomes a success hahaha...
>>735868753Post the 2nd light one
>>735881719>release definitive edition>DLC not included?
>>735882340>>735882757I'm honestly really confused at the reasoning yeahMaybe they want to keep "non-canon" stuff like extra episodes / heartscapes out to keep the games more focused, or something? But that doesn't explain why you'd take costume DLCs away, I'm clueless
>>735882826It can't be that because they're also adding extra characters to Second Light. Now this version has exclusive content but so does the original, so neither is definitive. What are they even doing?
What's missing from quartet?
>>735883880Looking at that list, nothing, or at least not much.
>>735882826They'll sell it as DLC again
>>735884374Truly a new low for KT/Gust if that happens but I wouldn't even be surprised>>735883880Literally everything as far as we know
>>735869506you say on the website that invented the insult normalfag
>Uta still not playable
>>735888247As >>735862664 already said
>>735870068there were CGs that if described to you could be considered lewd but if you looked at them you'd probably call it cute
>>735838393I kinda look like this irl.
>>735838393>wanted to wait on a sale for Blue Reflection 2 with all the DLC>now it will never go on sale because they’re about to release Quartet>Will either have to pay a premium for BR2 + DLC or buy Quartet and accept the censored scenes, changed dialogue and whatever else they can’t get away with nowadays> If I don’t pick fast enough they’ll delist BR2 like they did with the Ryza gamesWhat do?
>>735884886>>735884374Maybe DLCs unlock in both games ? Does steam even support something like that.?
you ARE getting the socks, right?

>>735893185The text on the image just says "Match with Hinako! Hoshinomiya Girls High School uniform socks (navy)" but it was confirmed in the stream that it comes with a perfume card that you put into the sock to make it smell. https://youtu.be/krQ4NkdgZcE?t=5109
>>735893658The glorious scent of Hinako's sweaty feet...
>>735869506kek nailed it
>>735893005If one considers the front, they are very detailed, more detailed than the panties of other characters, Koei Tecmo or Gust would have to hire someone or a company for custom-made panties or something in the event that this exact design doesn't exist in real life...and I don't think they'd want to do that, it would be more expensive than including black or navy blue socks with a small logo and call it a day.I say all this knowing that there was a limited edition of Panty Party that included real panties of course.
>>735894318True, the socks are way simpler and the pantsu would be sadly, looked down upon.But a man can dream...
>>735882562Here it is.
>>735894993What the fuck happened to Yuzu?I like the bottom right one, her panties are cute, especially the little pattern on the top
>>735895305Although the sequel has better graphics, the use of a mod reveals the fact that the underwear of a few characters looks weird now...Yuzu's looks very bad, the straps aren't visible or something. They probably didn't want to update or change some textures.Bottom right one is Yuki Kinjou, she basically wears the same underwear that Sarasa wears in the first game. Sarasa's panties have two bows and Yuki's panties have onle one bow in the front but other than that, the design of Yuki's underwear is pretty much the same. It's yellow underwear with pink edges and bows (or bow in the sequel), and the pattern or print can easily be considered cute, I don't think I'm the only one who would say that Sarasa's underwear is one of the cutest sets in the first game.Having said all that, some people say that Yuki wears it better because of her personality compared to Sarasa (and maybe design too? I don't know).
>>735893658Smell bad !? Theres just no way...

>>735878023Are there even any other notable mahou shojo games aside from Blue Reflection that aren't porn? I'm genuinely struggling to think of any.
>>735876676The first game is also technically "censored" slightly when compared to the DMM release, they locked the camera angles in photo mode>>735876329There's two mods that are essential; the higher bitrate video mod because for some reason, they fucked the prerendered videos up on the PC version compared to PS4 and then atelier-sync-fix because the game suffers from the usual gust shitcode pattern where they're badly emulating DX9 in DX11

A Blue Reflection thread that just got archived reached the bump limit, this one can too, let's go! At least 250 posts!
>>735896981Sarasa's is one of the cutest ones in the first game, just like her. I love her design.I like her little hairbuns but I haven't played the second game yet, will try to beat it this year though!Yuki's actually reminds me more of Hinako's, maybe because of the floral pattern? Is she some kind of airhead? Maybe she would happily let me sniff it...I like her little hairbuns.
>>735869506Don't mind this guy. He's a parasite from /u/ who creates yuri threads in /a/ and invades discussions whenever lesbians are brought up.I know who it is. He's brown, fat, ESL, lives on the East Coast, and is just a few steps away from trooning out. Pretty bold of him to venture onto /v/, knowing that he doesn't have yuritroon jannies backing him up.
>release games>censor them further>also don't release them with past DLC Two nukes weren't enough.
>>735900096Do we have proof the DLC won't be included or available ?
>>735898795There are some decent licensed ones if you go all the way back to 4th gen consoles, but that's about all I'm aware of.>>735882340Yeah, the concept sounded great, but the execution is really diminishing my enthusiasm for it.>>735899172That half-assed approach is a little strange. They're losing the "harem anime" angle, but keeping the character who now has no real reason to exist. I'm not sure who they expect to be happy about that. It kind of leaves me with the impression that they just wanted to port over bits of Sun in the laziest way possible and came up with excuses after the fact.>>735896981I prefer how it contrasts with Yuki's skin tone.
>>735901147>includedhttps://noisypixel.net/blue-reflection-quartet-details-timeline-mode-story-updates/>The developers also confirmed that the collection does not include save data bonuses or previously released downloadable content>availableI wouldn't put it past them to sell it again but I don't think they've announced any DLC included in the Japanese limited editions or as store preorder bonuses so I think the DLCs are just gone.
>>735900027>Yuki's actually reminds me more of Hinako's, maybe because of the floral pattern?I don't know why the distinction considering that Yuki basically wears Sarasa's panties but that may be the reason, the pattern or print looks very different compared to Hinako's underwear but it's a fact that some characters wear panties with a design or pattern on the front (specifically Hinako, Lime, Sarasa/Yuki, Yuri, Rin, Chihiro and Shihori/Hiori).Fun fact: In the sequel, Shiho and Kirara wear the same underwear, just in a different color. It may not be immediately noticeable but the design is the same and...both characters wear Yuri's underwear, what Yuri wears in the first game is the same set in a different, darker colors. The pattern or design that some panties have may be difficult to see or not very visible unless you're playing the game in 4K or watching a video in that resolution (I'm speaking from experience) but it's true that a lot of characters have panties with a design or print. And yeah, you have no idea, Yuki considers herself funny and cute, she can be one of the least serious characters in the sequel, that's all I'm going to say.
>>735901483She looks like a massive dork. Is she playable or a supporter? I'm assuming the latter?I mean, the bra does look the same as Sarasa's but the panties are kinda different no? Like the bows, etc. I'd have to see their butts to make sure.But yeah, I like patterns. Patterned panties are cute.
>>735876329The original game isn't censored, I never played 2 because 1 was boring enough to kill my interest in 2.>How are the mods on PC?Full nude, underwear, bottomless, wet options for rainy days, theres a few varieties but that's it really. You'll need GUST_TOOLS to unpack the data and then its just file replacement after that (nearly all Atelier games use the same format)Game isn't awful, its just painfully easy even on the highest difficulty since you full-heal after each battle so all you have to do is unzip your strongest spells every single turn. Bosses cool as hell thematically but are kind of a joke to fight.>>735876582>Yes. The original was censored in localisationI dont think it was censored so much as KT fucking SUCKS at in-house translation. Half of the skills are either flat out wrong or the OPPOSITE of what its trying to say.
>>735902436>Half of the skills are either flat out wrong or the OPPOSITE of what its trying to say.Like seriously how the fuckThe Atelier games get this shit sometimes but BR is probably the worst one i've ever seen.
>>735902436>I dont think it was censoredThere was relatively minor censorship i.e. you couldn't rotate the models on the Y axis in the model viewer to see upskirts like you could in the Japanese release.
>>735902982Oh right I forgot about that one, yeah.
>>735901871Yuki isn't a playable character, so, a supporter. One has one bow and the original design has two bows but other than that the design is the same, it's just that the collage with the Blue Reflection girls posted above doesn't have the highest resolution out there (it looks nice but it could be a little better of course). Here's an unnecessary image in better quality or resolution. If you compare this with Yuki's images posted above, yeah, same design other than the fact that Yuki's panites only have one bow...the bra sliders on Yuki's bra also look slightly different I guess? It's...pretty much the same design at the end of the day. Shiho and Kirara really wear recycled underwear (or assets), just in a different color.
>>735903217Oh Sarasa's has floral patterns too.Now I feel retarded, thanks anon. I should've looked at my own screenshots.The lace trimmings in her underwear are reaaaally cute actually...she just looks so soft.
I liked Second Light but it's a shit Blue Reflection sequel. They toned down the depression. Hid away the magical girl elements and replaced the hetero yuri with gay yuri.
>>735903774I wouldn't say it's a floral pattern, just a pattern of blue and pink circles but yeah, a lot of people would say that both her bra and panties look cute. Yellow underwear (light yellow, almost white) with pink edges, pink bows and that pattern. Not bad. They put effort in that part of the game even compared to the sequel, considering that multiple characters wear recycled underwear/assets.She just looks so soft, huh? Well, a notable difference between Sarasa and Yuki is...Sarasa isn't flat unlike Yuki, Sarasa may be almost on par with Hinako, her chest is below average at least.
>>735901871Yuki is one of my favorite characters in the series.She seems like a silly, cheerful, comic-relief character at first, but it's eventually shown that she's quite possibly the most clever and introspective person in the game.>>735903959I don't think a sequel necessarily needs to have the exact same tone, and they did at least carry over some of the major themes. That said, I agree with your general sentiment that while BR2 is a good game I really enjoyed, it's also not quite what I hoped for from a sequel to Blue Reflection.
>>735904387I mean in a cute, nice smelling way. Sarasa probably smells good and feels good to hug, chest notwithstanding, but that's probably because I want to do things to her in the first place.>>735904782She does look like the most interesting character in the sequel for now!
>>735840543Is that a B or a C?
>>735888904Oh sick, I don't know anything about Sun so looking forward to that
>>735904849>Sarasa probably smells good and feels good to hug, chest notwithstanding, but that's probably because I want to do things to her in the first placeI see.
>>735903959I think I've kinda grown to accept it as its own thing, will see if that's just cope or not when I replay Tie as part of QuartetI do however still feel like, overall, the boss designs / encounters and some of the music is just not as good as 1, the battle animations feel a bit low quality too...
>>735904870Probably a C.
If some of you feel Second Light misses the point of the first game then Sun is going to give you an aneurysm.
If I buy BR for steam and they delist it, do I lose the game in my account?
>>735840543Is there a way to estimate a character's breast size from pics?
>>735890716Don't think I've seen something like that before? I feel like it's a bit unlikely that they would do that
>>735905483No, delisted games stay on your account, "delisted" just means that they just cannot be bought on Steam anymore (but existing game keys will still activate, for example)
>>735905483No. Delistings just prevent you from buying it. It remains in your library and you can redownload it freely. A game getting completely removed from the servers and people's libraries is a very special case.
>>735905131While she is/was playable in Sun (she was added a few months before termination), it doesn't seem she will be playable in this compilation remaster.
>>735905630>>735905579I actually don't have a good enough computer and am considering a laptop to play BR on. Undoubtedly I will not be able to buy one in time of them delisting 1 so maybe I will make an account and buy a Steam copy.
>>735903959''Hetero yuri''? I guess you are talking about the fact that Shihori might be in love with Hinako but Hinako isn't in love with Shihori or doesn't reciprocate her feelings.>>735905374I like both console games but Blue Reflection Sun was very different, so...you are right lol.>>735905506The most you can do is look at the breasts/cleavage of a character and try to guess. Hinako is explicitly described as above average, at least there's that.
>>735906078Just buy it now and play when you get a better PC. Not like you need to have good computer at the time of purchase.
>>735906376Can I buy a good enough laptop or PC with a ~$1k budget?
>>735906078>>735906836blue reflection ran just fine on my 1060 i5-4670 that I built in like 2007
>>735905351The presentation of the boss battles is a huge step down from the first game, at least. I also prefer the supporter gimmick of the first game over infighting in the second, though I might would feel differently if infighting was better executed. BR1's soundtrack is ridiculously good as well, and hard to top.I think I prefer BR2's combat animations overall, though. BR1's look flashier because the camera is focused entirely on what one character is doing, and they take longer to resolve, but that also means they bog the game down a bit. BR2's animations are simpler, but much snappier, and I think what they did with the dynamic camera angles still makes the combat as a whole look good.>>735905374I wouldn't go quite that far about Second Light, but I do kind of feel that way about Ray, which felt more like a generic magical girl show to me than anything Blue Reflection-related.I sort of dislike almost everything added to the setting after the first game to some extent. I think Reflectors should have some mystique to them, and stuff like the AASA really diminishes that.
>>735901446That sucks. The Ryza dreamscapes were pretty cool.
JK tits
>>735906836Yes. Check the catalog, some OP posted a decent prebuilt under 700$, to make fun of Sony.
>>735907597Yes.
>>735894993I want to live inside Uta's pantyhose
>>735898795I recently played Crystar which is another game with pretty mediocre gameplay but carried by atmosphere and OST. The spiritual sequel Crymachina is more mechamusume though.
>>735909096NANANA BEEEEEAM
>>735900096extremely disappointing man, what a huge monkey's paw, fuck Gust
>>735909008Yuri probably wears pantyhose too.
>>735893658>Smells like high school -Lime's VA
Do straight men have a personality beyond their sexuality?
>>735909654There's a scene where she bends over and you can see up her skirt. She's just wearing extra long socks actually.
>>735910293A weird sudden question in the thread. If you have played the games, we don't have to talk about panties or sex appeal. Questions can be used to start a conversation...What do you think of the games? Do you have a favorite character? Do you prefer the ATB combat of the sequel? Favorite soundtrack?....etc...Again...if you have played the games too...
>>735910687Post it
>>735909209Hey, I also forgot to mention they will almostly certainly delist the original games as well, and that Ray probably won't be released and you'll have to stream it.
>>735910687Oh, right. The scene where Hinako goes into her lab for the first time.
>>735910687It's also slightly visible when she crouches down.
>>735910293What an embarrassingly terminally online question to ask.
>>735910781played the first one with a horrible english patch on PS Vita and enjoyed it so much but second one was bad and the anime was embarassingly bad. Would've loved to play the first one again (not with shitty Vita graphics this time) but I won't support such shit devs
Didn't /a/ like the anime?
>coomer pre-Ryze Atelier
>>735912236It can be kinda charming on its own but I agree that it really doesn't feel like Blue Reflection for the most part. I know some of it must've been caused by the complete lack of budget that made the visuals, atmosphere and music subpar and prevented them from including the Common and weird monsters, but what you're left with is a comparatively bland good vs evil magical girls plot with some interesting backstories and relationships.
>>735911624>but second one was badHow can you say that when you slogged through the fucking Vita version of the first? Your standards don't exist.
>>735838509Its your average run-of-the-mill ecchislop. Pretty mid JRPG game. Its only value comes from how horny you are.
>>735913046Hey, the art direction, music, and melancholic undertones all have their merits too.
>>735914067Blue Reflection confirmed for not video games. SHUT IT ALL DOWN
>>735914067Sex with Rena! Curing her lesbianism with cock!
>>735916005That seems kind of rude, doesn't it?
>>735916228Yuki will get her turn after
>>735898795Crystar like >>735909096 mentionedThe gameplay is just okay at best but it has an absurdly good artcore soundtrack and I grew to really like the characters over the course of the story
>>735916776qrd on this game, is it just a bland ARPG? What about crymachina? I like mecha musume stuff
>>735916835Crystar/Crymachina has a similar relationship as BR1/Second Light. Crystar is a very mediocre game that has an abundance of soul, while Crymachina is more polished overall but the soul takes a noticeable hit. It's not bad or anything, but you can feel where each game excels over the other. I personally think Crystar is more of an emotional gut punch, but it has so much chaff in its rote ARPG gameplay and Crymachina does alright in cutting down on that chaff while making the gameplay flashier. The only thing I'd say in favor of Crystar's gameplay is for some reason, hit feedback actually feels better on that game despite Crymachina doing literally everything else better.
>>735916835I can't comment much on Crystar, since a lot of things about it bugged me early on and I dropped it almost immediately. I did like Crymachina, though. It has a strong plotline, some good characters, and simple but enjoyable combat. The environments are really bland for the most part, though, and it's generally kind of low on content. It's also balanced sort of weirdly, in that a fairly small level difference can mean the difference between getting one-shotted by enemies or effortlessly curb-stomping everything.
>>735838393i always thought it was a walking simulatornow i realize that its apperently some kind of magical girl rpggoes to show how little you faggots talk about gameplay
>>735917916>implying there's any gameplayAnyway. I want to sniff Hinako's panties.
>>735917703>It's also balanced sort of weirdly, in that a fairly small level difference can mean the difference between getting one-shotted by enemies or effortlessly curb-stomping everythingThe Ys school of ARPG.
>>735880502thats just gust all around recently suddenly now. idk why i expected any different.
>>735917916I guess they felt that the cute girls sold the game by itself. Compare it to senran kagura. Extremely ecchi as well, but the gameplay is actually fun. Not to mention how cool holding six katanas like that is. Game has way more going for it than just cheap panty shots.
Do these games even have denuvo?
>>735899172I don't understand why he didn't just R63 the bastard and call it a day.
>>735925819
>>735923062I don't know what the situation will be for the new one, but OG BR and Second Light only have steamstub. Steamless+Goldberg is enough for BR. Second Light is a bit more of a pain in the ass since the third update as it checksums steam_api.dll and will refuse to run if it doesn't match the one the game is supposed to have, so you have to use an emulator launcher instead of a steam_api crack (or stub the check out in ghidra or something)
>>735918627>suddenlyThe otaku game market in general has been under siege for the better part of a decade now. I feel like quereate's one of the few lucky ones holding out, but you have a dev like Gust that's under the thumb of a major publisher and they probably do what they can get away with. I think the only real thing to question here is having Mel Kishida on PR at literally any level. They should probably stop doing that.
>>735918497I want Kokoro to crush me like the boulder that she is.

I see that this thread is still up, this thread may reach the bump limit tomorrow then. I may post more Blue Reflection files or images later.
I've owned the first game and Second Light for some months but haven't had a chance to play them. Should I play them or wait for Quartet?
>>735910687Ok this is big
>>735928965Play the first one now then play Second Light through Quartet so you can use all the new characters.Unless you buy the DLCs I don't see any reason to play regular Second Light anymore.
>>735926940
This is the previously mentioned scene where one can see up Yuri's skirt and see that she's just wearing long socks. Footage of the Japanese version was used as reference but obviously it's the same scene in the west, at least in the original version.
>>735922401I like Senran Kagura too but come on now, both Blue Reflection and Senran Kagura are great in their own way and they are very different franchises with very different appeal more or less.
>>735931325
>>735910247Heh, she probably enjoyed it, or at least thought ''wow! it really smells like a high school girl!''
For me, it's Kirara. She's so small, cute, and rapeable.
>>735934023147cm, short hair and a flat chest. She wants ''a sexier body'' though.
So Mel is a complete retard right?
>>735926992Is it really Nintendo's fault Gust makes bad decisions?
>>735934023Her cursed uniform will protect her.
>>735935259You could say that.
>>735926992>Man Nintendo ruined this and Dragon Quest in the same yearBeen a couple years now, have to think seeing the Neptunia and Corpse Party sets get blocked on the Switch in most of the world kind of pushed the over the top censorship here.
>>735935424Considering what recent Switch censorship has looked like, the original uncut version of Blue Reflection was not getting an uncut Switch release outside of Japan, no matter how willing Gust would be at releasing it uncut. Now how much that played into Gust's decision to censor the title on all platforms, or what the other platforms would object to content wise, is harder to say.
>>735926992Americans fault as usual

Here's an old joke: Hinako's pajamas are provided by Hoshinomiya Girls' High School but only in the PS Vita version.Her pajamas clearly have the ''HM'' logo but only in that version...for some reason.

>>735939082A normal girl who hates being considered as such, but she can still be a good, even attractive character, and I'm not saying that only because this scene briefly shows her butt before she sits down wearing a swimsuit.Rika has longer hair than other girls and also bigger breasts compared to some characters after all.
>>735938972https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20f0PLXm3Ww
>>735939025>>735939082I feel like Mel should have taken the opportunity to go back and improve the gameplay and animations for BR1. Gust has gotten a lot better at that stuff in recent years. If they're gonna go back to censor it, might as well make it a full blown remake.
>>735936669
>>735930332Profoundly based art.
>>735939963Hehe, this is great! Well, she said that The Divine isn't *that* skeevy...which implies that The Divine is a little skeevy or that it can be skeevy sometimes, otherwise she would have said "The Divine isn't skeevy"...right?
>>735937196That is unusual.>>735939715It is disappointing that it sounds like they didn't change anything on that front. Even something as simple as a new difficulty mode would have the potential to improve the game a fair bit.
>>735930332I love the fact that Kokoro's outfit is based on her clothes as a reflector. Somehow I don't exactly know who the other character is, looking at her hair, outfit and animal ears, maybe it's Shiho or one of the Blue Reflection Sun girls, in any case, this is great art, I love it.
>>735940802>I don't exactly know who the other character isShe's Azumi Nanaka from Sun. I'm not very familiar with the Sun cast either.
>>735941176That's what I thought. A girl who wants to be an idol.
>>735939025I always chose stretch and there were like 5 different angles for this animation. It was great
>>735941274Yeah, they bothered with different angles for that animation, nice touch.
>>735844002
>>735941764LOL.
>>735884374They won't cause DLC includes bikinis and they're censoring the game to appease SJW who won't even buy it
>>735935658>that VNThe most unforgettable horror porn game I've ever played. No other game had a bunch of elementary schoolers gangbang a teenage girl against a wall. And the teenage girl loved it. No other game I've played had a 17 year old bishonen guy drink a 14 year old girl's piss and chase her down the hall to rape her, only to wind up getting anally raped by a 32 year old fat man. I still remember the scene where a 16-17 girl was hiding under a bed as her same age best friend was having sex with that same 32 year old fat guy on top. She heard every moan, bed shake and sound. In the wrong end she was discovered under the bed by her friend and made to join. A most terrifying scene was when an unwilling girl relives another girl's sex memories. The girl in the memory consented but the reliving girl didn't. It didn't matter that she was mentally screaming, her body in the memory did all the motions and actions as in history. It's like mind control rape except the victim was fully aware. Another scene the same girl and a friend were almost raped in a magic sex ritual, saved by the girl's older sister, and the backlash made the older sister want to rape her younger sister and friend.The loli in this pic is freakishly lewd and once disguised herself as a teenage girl, fucked a boy until he nearly came, transformed back saying>You thought you were having sex with a highschooler weren't you? I'm an elementary schooler all along!And leglocks that boy, forcing him to cum inside her unprotected, when he screams in fear upon learning this. This isn't even getting into the tentacles, the gay sex, the lesbian sex, the incest, the sequel's mother/daughter lesbian scene, etc. The first chapter alone contains lots of lesbian sex scenes with an unavoidable girl masturbating in the bathroom. Truly horror is intrinsically connected with sexuality.
>>735838393Censored slop
>>735838509Literally nothing, it's just a faggot coomers game, but you already knew this from a mile away
>even more censored rerelease of a game that's a few years old and doesn't even come with the DLCMaybe gaming just isn't for me. I don't even buy games anymore. I get mildly excited for this and I see that it's not even worth pirating. That's a good thing though. You guys won. You owned the crybaby chuds complaining about censorship. Enjoy your victory. I'll enjoy spending my time and money on literally anything else.
The first game is a piece of shit gameplay wise. Great art and music, good story, but the gameplay loop is atrocious. The battle system is unbalanced, you oneshot every fight after 30 minutes.2 is an improvement gameplay wise, better battle system but you still end up oneshotting every fight, having to transform into magical girl every time gets repetitive really fast. Terrible and forgettable boss fights. Story and characters take a nosedive after the halfway point, music is decent. Also censored. It only gets a +1 because it acknowledged a yuri couple.Ray anime was so fucking bad they canceled the BDs, it's gonna be embarrassing seeing it turned into a small game with a cup of noodle budget.Sun was a shitty gacha with a male lead in a yuri franchise, that's where they really lost it.So I don't get the excitement.They should just make it a as a big VN that includes every game, modern Gust has no idea how to make a good game, look at the fucking state of Atelier.
>>735947906I just wanted the first game on Switch so that's alright, can't say I care much about the rest of the package and I'm mildly annoyed at the censorship and greatly annoyed that they're sticking with the male MC in Sun despite being fully aware he's hated.
>>735947329Just pirate the original and any games you enjoy. Stop thinking about resetera or ledditors you jogger.
>>735838393That smooth skin, those delicate curves.I fucking love pool toys.
I find it rather hilarious and dumb that they did character(s) poll at some point, Yuki/Rena won it and devs were like "hmm, what a roundabout way to ask for a male lead".
>>735838393Is that an appropriate swimsuit for a 15 year old?
>>735949134Maybe not, but her underwear isn't very appropriate either considering her age.
>>735948081Supposedly they are reducing the prominence of the male MC because they are aware of the dislike for himNot sure why they didn't just replace him outright honestly
>>735949134Maybe she's 24 now
>>735949459Yeah, it's mentioned in the interview linked to earlier in the thread. We already know they're removing the side events that played out like harem anime tripe, not sure if they're making changes to the main story scenes too. In that interview Mel Kishida is still convinced the MC being male is important to the story even though everyone who played the mobage can tell you there was no actual reason.
>>735949530>In that interview Mel Kishida is still convinced the MC being male is important to the story even though everyone who played the mobage can tell you there was no actual reason.I'll give him the benefit of the doubt considering they are rewriting some stuff from what I've heard, but he can keep these male MC ideas to himself if BR3 ever comes to happen
Wait, Quartet will be censored?
>>735952838Girls in the first game are more covered up in changing room/shower scenes and if you want to count it, Sun is missing the character events and their sometimes fanservicey 2DCGs. Also no DLC outfits included for either the original or Second Light which were some of the more revealing ones.
>>735952838Yes, on all platforms.
>>735952959>>735953402Why would they do this? Just remove a part of the game that everyone liked?
>>735949134A 15 yo was wearing less just 15 years ago. They just didn't show that to you xoomers otherwise you'd lose your mind.
>>735953894Their hands are tied or they think that they can get more sales with an even more censored version of the first game.
>>735854963dude just pirate them. you gain nothing from buying them.
>>735953894>Why would they do this?To appeal the typical group of people that don't buy their games.
>>735953894all three console manufacturers, valve, and all payment processors, are heavily against sexualizing minors and will use the least charitable interpretation of the law possible to characterize doing so as child porn and illegal under obscenity laws. releasing this game uncensored on any major platform is no longer possible, but they wanted to milk more money out of it anyways, so they self-flagellated and put out a compromised version no one wanted that would be approved by all platforms.
>>735955629This isn't a bad post.
>>735920589Sarasa in The Common, or something. Really nice and interesting art.
>>735948909It looks great.
Yuzu and Lime wearing bikinis.
>>735931325bro i swear i had this exact computer case from 2012 to 2024
>>735960680It's a common design and one can take for granted that Blue Reflection takes place in 2016-2021 considering the fact that everyone has smartphones for example.
>>735912859I don't have a PS4 and got the Vita from a friend who didn't need it and I played it before the second one came out man
>Ao x Uta drawfags coming out of the woodworks since the announcement
>>735962469The announcemment will result in more fan art and that's great.
>>735955629Falcoom got away with giving Tita a bath towel outfit for First Chapter. And I guess Estelle too.
>>735964071Something that should be mentioned is that Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter is rated B, Blue Reflection Quartet is rated C.
>>735939082Here, an image with a lot of Rika!
>>735965534Christmas came early because of Blue Reflection Quartet.
Is having your game rated M or D really that bad?
>>735966587What actually is really bad for sales is a JRPG having an age restricted page on Steam, since that blocks China (and Germany, though that doesn't really hurt sales) from buying the game.
>>735966587Koei Tecmo has published a lot of games with those age ratings (not to mention PEGI 16 and PEGI 18 in Europe), so no, it's not that bad.
only br1 was good, only br1 had good soundtrack, everything else was some shit. they had good ideas only for 1 game , and still br1 is pretty low and cheap game.
>>735966587I don't think that's the issue. The problem is more that all major platforms have begun ignoring the rating organizations and imposing their own standards on what is allowed, and all of them have been very harsh on Japanese ecchi games in recent years. M-rated games that were once openly sold at Wal-Mart have been rejected by Steam.
>>735967810And this is all fundamentally a byproduct of payment processors acting as moral arbiters and threatening platforms
I love slutty anime girls. The problem is that they added slutty JKs to these games but are pretending they actually aren't.
>>735838393is there anyone here who played this game yet never trooned out? don't think so
Yuki is the protagonist now.
>>735968421Regardless if you like ''slutty anime girls'' or not, they don't deny the fact that these girls are high school students but only in the first game. Hoshinomiya Girls' High School is, well, a high school and in the first game the characters are described as high schoolers at least once, that said, one doesn't deny the possibility of a retranslation of the first game that may make changes for better and for worse.You may already know this, but I also want to point out that compared to other franchises like Neptunia and Senran Kagura, the outfits/clothes that the characters wear are often modest and appropriate for the context of the scene or moment. With the exception of their reflector outfits and if one doesn't count DLC and alternate outfits, the clothes the characters wear by default isn't out of place and it works with the context of the game or that specific moment, whether it's a school uniform, a swimsuit, underwear or whatever, the characters don't tend to wear revealing outfits if one doesn't count their reflector designs and additional outfits that may or may not be DLC...in Neptuna and Senran Kagura on the other hand, even their default outfits can be ''yeah, she wears revealing clothes just because'', nothing wrong with that but it's true that Blue Reflection has a different appeal, tone and what not compared to Neptunia and Senran Kagura for example.
Evidence of the previous post. Lime says that they are high schoolers and that's fine, or at least it was, not anymore maybe.
>>735969143You joke/troll, but the answer is ''yes, there are people''. I've loved Blue Reflection for years and I'm not a trans person.
>>735967925Not really, at least not for games like this. The bullshit on Valve started long before the payment processor push, and when the payment processors actually did push Valve to do something last year, it was porn titles with stuff like rape or incest in the title that they payment processors actually forced offline, not anime games with school settings.
>>>/a/287097975They're talking about us...
>>735972416I've posted both on a and v, it depends, hehe. You don't have to use just one board.
>>735918056It's funny how you just say that like it's nothing and so suddenly. The Announcement and imminent release of Blue Refleciton Quartet may result in more fan art with panties...
>>735838393NOOOOOOOOOO THEY CENSORED THE GAME THEY WONT LET ME LOOK AT NAKED UNDERAGED GIRLS!!!!!!THE WEST HAS LE FALLEN!
>>735973727They still let you look at the original scenes because the original game is available digitally for now.
it's boring without a male insert
>>735974051I can see the appeal in some genres, but not so much in a magical girl game where the male insert is inevitably going to be some loser sitting on the sidelines that everyone pretends is important. It'd be like making an Ace Combat game and having the protagonist be a mechanic who sits back at the base watching the pilots fly the planes.
>>735974730That's a good example actually. Magical girls or mahou shoujo and a male main character don't work.
>>735971025based, yuri has been the gateway drug to troonism for a while, nice to see you just like cute anime girls
>>735967810>>735967925>>735955629It's just Koei being Koei you retards.
>>735969895>>735970018They already censored Second Light by changing every mention of high school in the script to college in English, so they'll probably do the same thing to the other games in this release.
>>735936320moar br likes>gal gun series>HeavenBurnsRed
>>735976080You can't just ignore that there have been things happening with a lot of releases for years. I don't have one of those collages but Omega Labyrinth Z cancelled in the west in 2018, the cancellation of those 3 Neptunia games in the west for Nintendo Switch, the censorship that affected the Nintendo Switch version of AIR, Gal*Gun Returns cancelled on Xbox consoles, Valve removing a lot of games or banning games that don't have explicit content (Dungeon Travelers 2)...etc etc...none of those things are a mere coincidence.
>>735838393This series continuing to live is only the result of a monkey paw.>great first game>weak sequel>gacha>male MC>now a re-release where they retroactively enshitten the older games with censorshipYou know, maybe I should be happy that my favorite JRPG is fucking dead and stuck in IP hell. It's better than way. Dead is better than being a zombie.
>>735976409I can ignore it because Koei is a massive publisher who has the weight to say "no, fuck you" if they wanted to, but they don't, they've been pushing this same shit internally from before SNOY even started this platform holder bullshit.
>>735976603I'm not so sure about that...to this day, some versions of Devil May Cry 5 are censored depending on the version of the game or region, that patch that removed the light that covered the butt of a naked female character doesn't count for every version of the game or region, if Sony presumably dared to mess with Capcom and Valve dared to mess with Spike Chunsoft (fortunately, Chaos;Head Noah being banned was changed and in the end it was allowed), of course one of the platform holders can tell Koei Tecmo ''hey, you have to change or remove this, if not, it won't be allowed'', I don't take it for granted but it can happen and Koei Tecmo isn't necessarily a company who has money or power to convince the platform holder otherwise.
>>735976242I read that the sequel is inconsistent with that and sometimes it says ''high schooler'' or something like that but I'm not sure.
>>735974051Self-inserts are intrinsically boring regardless of gender.
>>735838393This ass is perfect
>>735973287Lmao it's kinda my shtick now, isn't it?I hope it results in more fanart in general. I saw some already on my xitter feed but it was for the sequel characters, I need to play it already...But yeah I hope we get more art of Hinako in cute underwear. If not I'll just generate it myself. It's better than nothing
Censored for Nintendo has stopped so many games from selling it’s crazy
>>735979471It's NoA in particular, Death Match Love Comedy was allowed a physical European Switch release, but was blocked in NA all together and not allowed a digital European release.
>>735979360I want Hina-chan to look at me like I'm absolute garbage while stepping on me.
>>735980685This but also Lime
>>735979350If you are the same person who made these posts >>735853342, >>735858593, >>735860905 and >>735863226 for example, then yeah, it's kinda your schtick now. I guess you've discussed the underwear (mostly the panties) of multiple characters in this thread, so...what about Yuri's panties? They are black or navy blue panties that feel like are meant to be sexy, even though Yuri canonically has savant syndrome and/or is autistic, her underwear looks...grown-up. I guess it looks nice but I don't know if it's something she should really wear considering her personality.Someone at Gust must have liked the design though, considering that they are palette-swapped for both Shiho and Kirara's underwear. I hate AI art and I wouldn't never post something if I know it's AI generated, but if you ever want to generate art that involves the underwear of Blue Reflection characters due to a lack of specific fan art or whatever, I won't stop you.
>>735983359Heh, that post above. I meant this other post >>735861084 but anyway.
>>735838393A thread died for this weeb ass sack of shit?
>>735983702Over two days ago, yes.
>>735983359Yes, all of those posts gave me (You)s.I really like Yuri in general, although I was a bit sad that she actually doesn't wear pantyhose. It's one of my favorite pieces of clothing but I still love her.As for her panties, I like black to start with, the small pattern (?) on the front and the bow are nice, not to mention the lace trimmings. I really like it actually. Sniffable/10. Realistically she would wear something more simple or pratical, but hey, cute panties are cute panties.I'm not too fond of aislop either, but I think it can be alright when we have next to no fanart of some particular stuff.
>>735929572Late but thank you! That's a good solution.
Well, /v/?
>>735983995I like Yuri a lot too, she's a great character, but it's true that realistically she would wear something simple. The simplest underwear in the game are what Kei and Rika wear as you probably know, Rika wears plain white underwear without a pattern or anything. It works and it's fitting for her at least. Unless you are someone who prefers something simple or who genuinely thinks ''there is beauty in simplicity'', I'll assume that you don't think that Rika's panties are that good or....sniffable. Ke's underwear is a different shade of white (?) but besides the fact that kei's bra doesn't have bra sliders (the only bra in the game without sliders), it's not something much different, Kei and Rika wear the simplest undies in the game...some people may like them. Looking at this image, I guess one can also say that Rika's panties...are basically Hinako's panties without the detailed design in the front, I noticed a long time that the back of Rika's panties is similar but, of course, the design in general is a lot simpler.For particular or specific stuff, I guess AI art is fine more or less as long as you don't share it and it's for private use and what not, some people have said ''I have AI art I've generated myself but I won't share it or post it unless someone asks me to share it'' and...that's fine maybe...
>>735986304Stick my finger in Uta's bellybutton.
It's been mentioned before that RIka has bigger breasts than other Blue Reflection characters and this image puts things in perspective. I'm sure Yuri has a bigger chest but, like Rika herself, I guess her breasts are average or normal, she should have medium breasts and it's noticeable. She's more endowed than Yuzu, Lime, Kei and even Kaori for example.
>>735986304Looking at her face, push Uta.
>>735986623Simple panties are cute too, so I wouldn't discriminate. But for Rika I'd rather sniff her track and field uniform, if I'm gonna be honest. Plain white with those little frills is also nice though, especially now seeing that the frills seem to be another color. It's a cute detail.>>735986808That said, damn, Yuri's bra is super cute. I love the pattern.
>>735983995You've probably seen this fanart before, this small picture contains HInako's panties. The color is a little different (they don't look very white) but overall it's obvious that the artist put effort in that aspect of the image. It's a small image but the fact that the artist really tried to accurately draw Hinako's panties is impressive. Hinako is topless, so, the image is not safe for work, I'll just post a link: https://img2.gelbooru.com/images/b7/d9/b7d976d13d19627f7513a81911959365.jpeg
>>735988009I saw it yeah! I appreciate a lot when artists put in effort and details on pantsu in fanart. IIRC there's even a tag on pixiv called "detailed underwear" which is a blessing for weirdos like me. Thanks for sharing the art anon, I really appreciate it!
>>735842243They removed the underwear in the port.
>>735838393censored>>735843012eh he turned out okay, he was an asexual serious all business type like the gakumasu P
>>735987691Simple panties are great too, right. Rika is often seen wearing the track uniform, it should smell like Rika a lot, and her sweat. I wouldn't say that Yuri's bra is super cute, I think it's meant to look sexy but if you find it cute, good for you. It's not necessary but I'll post Kei's underwear too. Simple like Rika's, just a different shade of white probably. I don't think I'll post more underwear from the first game after this post, there is a lot in the thread now...>>735988268No problem.
>>735988831Sexy can be cute too.I wish Rika wore something more sporty, I love sports bra, but hers are still cute.And yeah we probably discussed almost every girl's underwear now...Thanks for the fun chats, anon.
>>735989037>I wish Rika wore something more sporty, I love sports bra, but hers are still cuteI don't know if you meant Kei, Rika wears a sports bra and Kei does not. Almost every girl's underwear has been discussed, yes.
Ao.
>>735989202Yeah Kei. Had a brainfart thinking about girls' underwear there...
>>735988382The underwear wasn't removed, it's just censored with more clothing. This comparison has been posted before, in the censored version the straps of their bras are still visible, complete with the sliders...that, combined with Hinako's weird skirt there (even though she's not wearing the school uniform) gives the result of a censored version of the scene that looks very bad and lazy.
>>735980225Fucking insane. I don’t understand why these corpos willingly lose sales, money, to appeal to twitter and ESRB. I just don’t get it
how is this thread still alive
>>735990287The ESRB has rated maaany games without issues, the problem is the platform holders and maybe the publishers themselves too, demanding censorship in the case of platform holders, or self-censoring because they don't want to take risks with the platform holders and/or want to reach a bigger audience. To this day, the rating summary of Omega Labyrinth Z can be read on the ESRB website. https://www.esrb.org/ratings/35428/omega-labyrinth-z/
>>735990682the power of autism and panty sniffing
>>735990896>panty sniffingBut they are fictional characters, you can't sniff their panties.
>>735840543The crazy thing is that when I wake up to fantasies of a Blue Reflection girl, I don't even have to cum to feel sexually satisfied, I can just gently grind my pillow for an hour and kiss it pretending to make out with them and bear hug them and play with their bra straps and it's like my soul has been purified. Almost no other type of a girl does that for me.
>>735991000That won't stop me from fantasizing about it>>735991060Based
>>735990035Looks more like Hinako's skirt is crooked and maybe some of her underwear is visible in game.
>>735990287The ESRB had nothing to do with DMLC, it was rated (with a T) just fine on every other console in the US.Nintendo's new puritanism seems to come from them wanting a "family friendly" image (unless its a AAA title), more then anything, why, while you have anime type censorship hitting things like Neptunia, you also have censorship randomly hitting things no other Western devs would care about, like the nudity in Dispatch or random games like Daymare getting blocked because of violence.
>>735991060That's interesting and...almost deep I guess? I imagined someone doing what you said with a pillow and it was something. It must be the beautiful art style which has been described as ethereal, just looks at this promotional image. The Blue Reflection games...really look better than many other anime style games, everything looks beautiful. Play with their bras straps reminded me of a post in the thrread that has been ignored (>>735842964). Some girls adjust their bra, the animation is reused in multple moments in the game, it's mostly Mao who does it, so, for the most part the scenes with that animation are optional. Someone already said it, if they don't change or remove some animations, it's going to look very bad and ''they're going to be clipping through those retarded looking sweaters and nightgowns to get to underwear you can't even see''.>>735991113Okay, you got me.>>735991512Their bra straps are visible in the censored version, so, the underwear is still visible in game, a little.
>>735990860The ESRB has been the one organization that has remained extremely consistent. They haven't really made moral judgements and still rate most fanservice on par with Blue Reflection as a T-rating. In general you ask them for a rating and they consistently give a rating based on their content standards. .
>>735992290Code Vein II is rated T, surprisingly. It's true, the ESRB has remained extremely consistent and they are less strict than the other rating boards at times. They aren't the problem, the platfrom holders and publishers like Koei Tecmo and Marvelous are the problem, not to mention banks and credit card companies too probably...it's a mess, at the end of the day, games with fanservice (not even explicit content, not necessarily) have been dealing with problems and difficult times, that's a fact.
>>735992220>Their bra straps are visible in the censored version, so, the underwear is still visible in game, a little.We don't see anything past Hinako's waist, so maybe theres something. Thats probably a cope though.
>>735993665Very recent fan art. This looks great!>>735993806We'll see. For now, if that's representative of the final product, the game is going to have more clothing for specific scenes but the bras and bra sliders are still visible...
>>735979360She looks really angry...
>>735838525censored kusoge*
>>735955629All to please the Esptein board
>>735986304Push Uta to the breaking point. I want to make her worse.
The bump limit has been reached. At least 3 Blue Reflection threads have reached the bump limit in the last few days.
>>735996076>panties in the corner
>>735996330Yes, and it's (weird) official art.
>>735996629One of the characters waving goodbye also works.
>>735996629Haha!Funny and cute!That's our Yuki!
>>735996952Variant of something posted above (>>735901483).
Before the thread dies, here's the bra of an unrelated character in a very different franchise that doesn't even have a video game.Source: The world of Narue.
>>735997304I just added that one to my watchlist last week, now I really need to see it
>>735997409The fanservice is mostly in the first episode but there are pantyshots during eye catch sequences before and after a commercial break, not to mention mild fanservice throughout the series. In simple terms, it's more or less a romantic comedy with sci-fi elements, even for its time it wasn't anything revolutionary or anything but I still think that The World of Narue is worth watching if one wants something enjoyable that isn't trying to subvert expectations or something back to basics. I like the series.
One last post with Rin!
