the first grisaia really has the best nichijou in the entire medium, i wish the whole vn was just 60-70 hours of it
VNs that aren't Aokana where the heroine has a big crush on another heroine but ends up with MC instead?
does the idea of a mech game where you're an engineer and can date a pilot sound appealing? and you do puzzles to repair mechs after battles? or is that too tricky too pull off well?
>>485004632there's already a general genre of games where you're just the "shopkeeper" and your job is to ready other people to go on the adventures and stuff. As for incorporating a puzzles theres also those too. First thing that came to mind was this old gamehttps://www.nintendo.com/en-gb/Games/Nintendo-3DS-download-software/WEAPON-SHOP-de-OMASSE--857340.htmlYou could easily see where you replace the blacksmithing stuff with robot repair
>>484996729also why do you ask this>>485005215oh that's a good source of inspiration, i'll give it a look. I'm just having trouble thinking out the general arc of the game and deciding how to pace certain parts. how much to establish the protagonist vs how quickly to get to the point where you can choose a romance path, what order to put the paths or how many to write, the various arcs of those paths, etc.it feels like it would be really easy to over-scope things when making a vn
>>485005442yeah writing is hard, I've got nothing to suggest there. Might have to take some inspiration from some manga. If MC is gonna be the engineer then hes gotta be a supporter type mc and the main girl has to be a tsundere or else theres no conflict.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negima!_Magister_Negi_Magi first thing that came to mind
>>485006040alternatively you could do https://mangadex.org/title/9b3d1a67-941f-4538-9e75-3797eeb3771f/a-story-about-treating-a-female-knight-who-has-never-been-treated-as-a-woman-as-a-womanThis would be more of a kinetic novel though, where you just make the main couple really great
>Hibiki is just barely taller than the lolitruly the manlet of all time
fang
>>485006198could be a good start i guess>>485006040>main girl>girloh it's going to be BLbut the main love interests definitely have conflictsthe main character is a bit shy and effeminateOne love interest is very sociable and impulsive, and the conflict is the protag being pushed to expand his boundaries and try new things while also trying to temper the pilot's emotional outburstsAnother is a faux love interest, where he seems like a perfect guy and the main character becomes enamored with him, only to find out the pilot is straight and only using him for attention and ego strokingThe "main" route would be with a bit of a stereotypical tsundere on some level, where he's a rough antisocial kind of guy with anger issues, and they eventually warm to each other after initial conflicts and misunderstandings, as they spend time talking with each other and discussing how they view the world and finding common ground until they fall fiercely in loveand the last one would be an older man, recently divorced, who preys on the protagonist and pushes him to do crossdressing and sex acts he finds uncomfortable but love bombs him to go along with it, and so there would be the vacillation between high highs and low lows of an abusive relationship with a heavy power imbalance.idk i definitely have ideas, the trouble is refining them and keeping the scope right so i can handle it by myself bc i'm too autistic to work with others on this
Suzune is the best side yuzu
>>485007358>oh it's going to be BLright forgot. I do agree with your MC choice though, its something you can do since the MC is going to be the bottom(?). Like if you made an effeminate guy and a girl pairing it would just be evangelion and nobody likes Shinji.I suppose if you need more inspiration and scoping you just need to read a bunch of stuff and pick out what you like, what you could do better or different etc. Read some mecha stuff too, engineers are just as important in the setting.
>>485007792yes he's a bottom lol>shinjihe's literally me plus evangelion's otp is kaworu x shinji anyway (or shinji x kaji)>I suppose if you need more inspiration and scoping you just need to read a bunch of stuff and pick out what you like, what you could do better or different etc. Read some mecha stuff too, engineers are just as important in the setting.good stuff, thanks for the advice

do you ever get tired of heroine going "ANON NO BAKAAAAAAAAAA" and then it pans to the sly?

>>485018374Sounds like an overkill, but you do you
>>485019296to the sky*
VNs with cathartic moments where the evil woman heroine who's been acting smug and trying to kill you all game finally finds herself confronting MC and she immediately tries to change gears and let bygones be bygones but gets corrected instead?

>>485019296Yes, I want a CG of her attacking the MC whilst nude.

Mangagamer announced thishttps://vndb.org/v36749
>single-heroine geIt's over...
>>484997819I only read yurige.
Just tell us the entire story why don't you
goddamn she's cute shame there's like two chapters left in the vnI probably shouldn't have read the afterstory, it's just sequel bait.
Single-heroine ge is my ideal kind of nukige desu
>>485024181I've yet to read one to know, but on paper I think I would too. It'd provide enough time to properly give characterization to the heroines, something that most eroge lacks.
>>485023331When Kiriya came here a couple months back he said they're announcing stuff at Otakon instead
>>485023331At least they didn't spend close to a thousand dollars to purchase a stage and livestreaming equipment specifically to post shitty memes badly attempting to make fun of steam that make the average /vn/ poster's edits look like Picasso.TSR's never coming out though.
I'm getting so sick of translating scenes where characters constantly make references to manga with the names changed slightly.
December 15. Trust the plan.
Wait...that was it? Mangagamer...
any other artists that draw assholes as nice looking as Koku? and maybe give the heroines pubes?
>>485023517kino
Hot take: Koku's art sucks.
>>485025165Just his faces.
>>485025165His art is good except for faces and hands
>>485025165>>485025205Hard disagree.The fact of the matter is, if you asked an artist to draw 10 shotas gangbanging a girl at once, most artists would get lazy. Not koku. He'd give each and every one a distinct design.https://exhentai.org/s/ba0f1289df/2904864-281It's the little touches that make an artist great.
>>485025365Those aren't shotas. Those are midgets.

I made sure to do her "route" first, but now I'm just going to feel like shit cucking her every other route. Mana really is great and the way MC treats her feelings throughout a lot of the story is painful.I am really excited for Hotaru because she's my favorite character so far I assume has the most indepth route and plot/drama
When is Alicesoft going to license out Heartful Maman? What's taking so long?
>>485027065Hotaru's route is where all the kino is at, make sure to save it for last
>>485027065>but now I'm just going to feel like shit cucking her every other route.That's why I read through until I reached her route then dropped the game.I am such a loyal fiance.
one scene left and then I've actually finished the entire common route, that's progress baby
>>485027680Do you suggest I go and read Kokoro/Kyouko now before continuing the main plotline, does turning down Mana instantly put you on the Hotaru express?
Wasn't HG supposed to announce Amakano?
>Amakano>Ever getting TL'd
>>485028062Yes. If you turn down Mana you're on Hotaru's route, because there's nothing left in the VN but Hotaru's route.>Do you suggest I go and read Kokoro/Kyouko Their routes are actually kinda bad. I'd only recommend reading them if you REALLY like them as heroines.
>>485028062Kokoro and Kyouko have absolutely nothing plot relevant, they're just short ichaicha routes if you actually like those 2
>>485028062>does turning down Mana instantly put you on the Hotaru express?Yep, her route begins after you reject her. The other routes are basically just H-scene dumps and slice of life since you've already went through the main drama during their chapters.
>>485028069No, only Shiravune has a shot at it now since they actually released an Azarashi game. Trust the plan.
>>485028143Amakano 3 simulrelease happening any day now...!
>>485025932>shota ntrgedisgusting. shotas are made to get their dicks cutely drained by women three times their age.

>>485032536Weird choice to come out in public now when everyone had pretty much moved on.
>>485035112anon he posted in this general for yearsonikiss was localized specifically because /vn/ told him tothen it didn't work on launch day and he was gloating about how only the pirated version didn't work and somebody posted a receipt for the purchase of onikiss and said I bought your game and shit doesn't fucking run you piece of shit give me my money back and he never came back
>>485035186Oh, I've been posting here since 2023 so I didn't know him.

if there are people who are using LunaTranslator,the texextactor fork,the github account is currently downdownload a copy of latest build from here in the mean timehttps://lunatranslator.xyz/
>>485035273The quick summary is that he used to run a visual novel translation company that was shut down for tax evasion, but before it was shut down for tax evasion everyone quit working for him because he was a huge piece of shit scam artist. He'd do things like hire someone to translate a game and tell them he'd pay them X amount of money and to get started now and the contract would come later, and then he'd wait until they were finished and send them the contract and it was a fraction of what he promised and he'd say you can take the money or have done six months of work for nothing. And this was years before his claimed mental health issues, by the way.

They really should've used more of this art style throughout, it's very cute and endearing.

I... I can't get married anymore...>>485038175Does it? I think that it's a school ranging from middle to high school like you often see in the countryside.They only have one class for each year as well.

>>485042108>>485038175they're middle schoolers because the story is a bit naive and childish. I think it's to make the bullying less severe and easier to solve
Weird for pic rel to make me tear up a bit.>he accepts her notebook from her and waits till he finishes his version of their novel before seeing her again (a few months till end of winter or so)>the final page of her notebook has her confessioon of love for him and a plea to give her back her memories (notebook) if they meet again>he doesn't give it back even though she asks if he found any notebook around here, fully intending to start from 0 againwhat a weird unsatisfying ending. I guess I'll watch shaft's adaptation before moving onto last chapter.
Decision time~>can choose Yui, whose entire role so far has been to be the leader behind the bullies>can't choose Otoha-chanHidoi...>>485043250That just might be it. I've noticed that the bullying in H2O is very childish and direct (like calling Hayami a cockroach and stomping on her) as opposed to, say, Subahibi's psychological terror and sexual humiliation.I still want Yui and her minions to receive their just desserts.
Literally me...
>no one announced a single loli routeWhen will the drought end?
Anons what's the VN with the prettiest artstyle or character design you've seen?I've played only a couple, but i've always liked Flowers and some Sonohana.
>used her worn pantsu as a handkerchief to cool off Takuma's foreheadNeed more naive heroines unaware of their eroticism and sexual charme.Otoha's the kind of girl who'd tearfully ask you to stop the bleeding if she experienced her first period.

>>485045080>AI hags
>sullied Otoha's precious pantsu with his nosebleedTakuma needs to commit seppuku for this act of sacrilege.>>485044419Flowers is definitely up there among my favorites, since it's the culmination of Sugina's hard work and expertise as an artist for two decades.His work on Kara no Shoujo and Cartagra is pretty too, but I prefer the soft and beautiful technique he used in Flowers.
It's been 5 years now since MG put out a moege and 4 since they put out a new loli route
Excuse me, where can I find the heroine's no bra club?
>>485044627>Otoha's the kind of girl who'd tearfully ask you to stop the bleedingwould be so fucking kino

VNs with cute blue skinned heroines doko
Cute retards. I wonder what's the implication of Zakuro looking like an exact copy of Hayami, and both being associated with cats.
>Dos[u]koiI thought Summer Pockets made that word up, but it seems to be real dialect?Or rather a sumo declaration according to Nihongo Master.
>he's still copinglmao....but I get it, Takuma.Remain faithful to your delusions, and they might just become reality.
What are the implications of this?On second thought, they don't look *that* similar.
>>485047221None. Closest thing you'll get to a relation is some kinda alt-world(?) Hayami being Takuji's mother.

If I want a fair shot to solve the mystery in higurashi do I have to read all of the tips and play every chapter in a row or am I good to put down the VN to read other stuff between chapters and ignore the tips as long as I take notes on the details that seem relevant?
>>485050997Of course you'll need to read all of the content if you want to read the mystery.
nipplejob doko
>>485050997Most of the tips in the early chapters are additional SoL and character interactions from different point of views than the MC's, but some of them feature important clues as well.>>485051338*solve
>>485050997As long as you make notes and read tips you should be fine. Would be easier to binge it rather than spread across years though
>>485038175Perhaps I should give it a read. Nothing beats young budding JCs.
>>485048829>some kinda alt-world(?) Hayami being Takuji's motherHmm, you think so? Their hair does look similar, but we don't really get a close-up shot of Kotomi's face, and their first names are different.Unless there's some connection in their background I'm yet unaware of, I'd rather connect Hayami to Zakuro, who looks like a carbon copy of her.>>485048919>your nip reps..I stopped after learning hiragana and katakana...
>improved the wakeup scene and solved the mystery of why Kei's hair was on his pillowhttps://streamable.com/3k5pjt
>>485044419
>>485052675There is no corrections besides the mother being bullied/feared due to her family's powers iirc but that only partially works with h2o anyway.
Fucking Kimika-looking whore, as if she wouldn't know that Hayami can't afford a paint set. That's not how a teacher should act like.I'm getting the feeling that SCA-JI and Ken'Ichi have some kind of deep-rooted grudge against teachers...>>485052842Yeah I'm retarded, I remembered right after posting that Kotomi was bullied in school too, and Takuji's father being the only one who was ever there for her.That's a pretty strong resemblance to Hayami already, coupled with the fact that their hometowns use the same BGs.I dunno how I feel about Hayami's expy cheating on her husband though.....
>>485051338>>485051495>>485051916Is the mystery solveable with the story alone and not the tips because man the tips are a bit hard for me to get through

Which of these -ge should I read next?https://vndb.org/v4822https://vndb.org/v1338https://vndb.org/v15870

Revenge for bullying~Get grinded!!
This flashback is confusing... how long ago is it supposed to take place?Did Hinata transfer into the school mid-semester, or why doesn't she know about Hayami's status as a cockroach?She's the mayor's granddaughter, so considering what a small village they're living in, I figured she'd have known all of the others since they were kids.>>485055986holy fucking kino...
>>485055986>>>/a/
>>485056670it's a flashback from when the bullying began, no?

>>485056985???
Do butas want to be the girl or they actually wanna fuck the girls? I think its the former.
>>485057068isn't Scaji the writer? he goes to far on bully.
>>485056943Maybe it got worse after this incident for reasons I am yet unaware of, but the other kids already dislike Hayami at this point, and the cockroach nickname already exists as well.Hinata seems to be weirdly out of the loop here.

>>485059494they get hurt mentally like zakuro. then they will never be satisfied with a nice boy.
It was just one simple request... and yet- Hinata was unable to fulfill it....It's on me to save Hayami now.>>485059596Let me correct myself: consensual and corrective sexual bullying is based.
VN in with the heroine gets forced to suck a bully's cock and you unknowingly kiss her after?

words of wisdom to live by
In retrospect zako reboot had a lot of really hot sex situations, like imouto sucking your dick during lunch break time running out and then imouto getting mad at you for being horny and unable to focus in class.
That's a lot harsher than I imagined... so it's not just Hayami, but her whole family that gets shunned and outright attacked by the villagers.Just doing as their parents tell them to... I'm not sure if I can accept a peaceful resolution to the bullying if Takuma manages to sway everyone's hearts by the power of being yasashii.>>485059846You'll find plenty of doujins like this, but VNs are generally too highbrow for this kind of fetish.>>485060545That's rude, do you jerk off your dad with those fingers?
SHITgura SHITnata...This is unacceptable. Being a child doesn't fly as an excuse here since the event takes place during middle school.Even if she was too scared to stand up against the whole village, treating her like scum even in private at school is the worst.
>>485054598https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpiePayOjbc>>485054598Just replay Extra dude

>>485062026How is she wrong? Can you not go outside to check because your mobility scooter broke and your insurance refused to cover the repairs?
>cut pointless shit>added past scenes for loli Kei and Chihiro to showcase Hiro's drive/reason to draw>better highlighted Miyako taking Kei's place and praising Hiro, genuinely helping himHow come every adaptation fixes so much about the base stories, couldn't the VN writers fucking do a good job in the first place..
Is this a real saying?You usually wear shoes on both feet.
>>485061548Wasn't this like 1-2 years ago compared to where the story is now? close to elementary school basically

苦笑
Well, /vn/?>>485062786No idea, there's no year given for either the flashback or the current time.But even if it was long ago, it's unforgivable for Hinata to keep treating Hayami like shit even after growing older.>>485062853>>485062981It's a dumb saying regardless.

/vn/ peaked at the sol press iroseka announcement. I think that and the onikiss announcement were the only times /vn/ was the fastest thread on this board.Without Xev we are nothing.
/vn/ for me peaked in 2021 because that was my first year here

Playing KNS 2. First playthrough, currently on date 12/27. Current theories:>1. At least 1 major character from the past flashback is using a nickname to hide their identity beyond what we intially know. Naori or saya make the most sense.>1.1. If Naori he is one of the people in the blessed congregation cult, and likely the killer.>1.2 If saya then the person we know in the story as saya may actually be named ayako, with the real saya being locked in the shed and used in the miko dance. The real saya either died of heart failure as reported or is the killer of the saya we know, possibly both.>2. By process of elimintation the person who danced on the stage instead of the saya we know in the story was either nanako, or, assuming she is as a real person "ayako". That or she is a character that I haven't met at this point in the story.Prime Suspects list:1. Naori2. "Saya"3. Ayato's dad (just off character design alone)4. Ayato's sister has the strongest means and motive overall so its worth including even though my gut says noAm I cooking or burning down the kitchen?

>>485073373lolit straight up tells you who it is by being so obvious that you'd think its a red herring, but no, the game is just not interested in the mystery aspect.>>485073414kns1 was a far better mystery, but ye its no higurashi.

>>485073579I never understood why some people feel the need to try so hard to solve the mystery before (you), the MC, does. There is absolutely nothing wrong with ge like KNS that walk you to the door. Just chill and accept it as it comes. Mysteryge fans are a different breed of autist, I swear
>>485074491right sexo
>>485074485depends on the mysteryge, some mysteryge expect you to solve it as it goes, or they dont explain everything so you need to figure out your own theories.Or you can go full raging poop and you sit through an hour of exposition

>>485074983>reading uminekoby that point you've already gone full retard
>>485073315*the murder mysteryThe actual mystery of the settlement is fantasticIt's the identity of the murderer that's a disappointment. But the VN itself knows this, Reiji even says "yeah as soon as you killed the maid there were only two suspects"
>>485075565Zero Time Dilemma, and there were a million clues, it was just too complex for you
>>485075482retard lol
>>485074914https://vndb.org/v48318it's crap
any mysteryge where the actual reveal of the mystery is good? no spoilers though. Even Umineko which is considered the greatest mysteryge of all time has a bad/controversial reveal
>>485075630the mystery of the settlement has 0 stakes to it, solving it has 0 impact whatsoever. Its pointless and thus uninteresting. Also similarly obvious, save for obscure details, which, again, dont matter.
>>485075846Any yuzuge
>>485075846Tsukihime.
>>485072992The more uptight she is, the more she's into anal.
>>484995865Yes, you will get a restraining order and have social death most of the time, but there is a slight chance for the target to be some crazy girl.
>>485075846all mystery VNs besides Tsukihime and maybe Higurashi are deeply flawed. You're better off looking at -ge with mystery elements like Kikokugai or Hanachirasu for good reveals
>>485076105I'm willing to take that risk
>>485075134>Octopath Travelerdamn the story in those are dull as dogwater even by jrpg standards. utter dreck it shall be

>>485076439the source material is shit so no
>Tsukihime>good mysterymaybe on planet retard
>>485075846Umineko and Higurashi each have like 200 reveals. Some of them are satisfying and some of them aren't. If you can't enjoy Battler's first takedown of Beatrice or him yelling out that Kinzo is dead to open the Chapter 4 deal then I doubt VN mysteries are for youKnS1 has a great murderer reveal.KnS2 has a series of great reveals about the overall system.>>485075883On the contrary Reiji being displaced from the center of the mystery makes him barging in more interesting. And even then you have Masaki as the deuteragonist who's at the center of everything. I can't imagine thinking that solving such a complex and personal mystery for him has "0 impact"The mystery of the settlement has multiple moving parts. It isn't obvious at all unless you're looking at the bare minimum jot notes (in which case wtf are you reading a mysteryge for)
>>485066619nice
>>485076751mysteries are cool, umineko is just retarded. dropped it when they teleported to a magic room to watch things play out while constantly crying about how it's all not realtrash writing
>>485076751>KnS1 has a great murderer reveal.lol
so wait, you're expected to read the original Tsukihime before the remake, but only the remake has a proper official release? Obviously yes just go download the fan translated original but its kind of dumb that they didnt make an official release of that too.
>>485076237The original. Remake's unfinished.
>>485077026>its kind of dumbNo it's not.
>>485074445>JAST didn't announce the Kageaki fumo lame
>>485076751>Reiji being displaced from the center of the mystery makes him barging in more interestinghow? thats just blatantly lying.>Masaki as the deuteragonist who's at the center of everythingthe answer does not matter to him - it doesnt change his opinion on anything nor does it change anything about his life. He has moved on eons ago, just as everyone else. Even the only dude who still cares - the detective - is relatively unimpacted by it besides some vague sense of satisfaction
Why would I read/play the same thing twice? I will never understand remasters and remakes
>>485077314because a masterpiece is worth being re-read
>>485077314because you really liked it and want to experience it again? and tsukire has actual changes and new shit, even if a lot of it are bad changes, but voice acting is enough of a reason to replay something
>>485076737S-she's f-fast!
>>485076937Yeah if the chuuni elements aren't for you then you won't like it. But the reveals are still delivered very well a lot of the timeIf you're able to enjoy chuuni stuff then you're doing yourself a disservice by not reading Umineko because you heard its "reveals" were bad>>485076938Stella casually revealing Rokushiki's name over some beautiful scenery was really well done and Reiji confronting him was written well.
>>485072986does this count as shilling?
cute rei and hinami
I only re-read masterpieces like Majikoi, Fate and Dragon Age Origins.

It's time to summon HIM
>>485079196
>>485078996the fabled all-ages future
>>485077291>how? thats just blatantly lying.Lying about what? It frees up Reiji to be proactive. Reiji is way more fun to read in the second VN than he is in the first. And when the mystery does eventually loop back to him it makes the ending hit like a train. The whole VN shows him as a confident detective this time until it reminds you by the end that no matter how hard he tries to bury himself in his work, he hasn't solved his own obsessions either.>the answer does not matter to him - it doesnt change his opinion on anything nor does it change anything about his lifeNow this is just blatant lying. He starts the story off slitting his wrists out of depression. When Reiji saves him he bitterly says "thanks I guess too bad I didn't die" and by the end he's desperately helping save other people. Shit before that even, after his grandfather dies he starts acting much more jokey and casual with Reiji too. It's obvious that solving the mystery of the settlement lifted a weight off his shoulders.Solving his own mysteries gave him resolution and blanked out the obsessions from the past that still clung to him. By the end he's come to terms with the reason bad shit keeps happening around him, he's come to terms with the murder he himself committed, and he's learned enough to help other people. If you think he's the same person before and after solving the settlement you seriously need to reread it.>>485077763If you can't get past that then yeah of course the rest of the VN isn't for you. But for those who can the story has a lot of really well-done reveals.
>>485079196My cat is like Vanilla except she's cross-eyed and obese
>I'm a retard and was unable to reach a solution by reading the VN, unlike thousands of fans who discussed it long before the manga came outSasuga retard, revealing himself to be a mongoloid to ironically shit on a VN.>>485078824That had to do with the properties of being the detective, as well as the narrative disposition of that given scene. They basically explain it in the tea party.
>>485079132

>>485079081Remember how Erika talks about how whodunnit, howdunnit, and whydunnit are all equally important and there's no solution to the mystery without them? Umineko gives you the why, and the who, but the how is abandoned. It's not a tertiary issue, it's the main plot of the series.You have to read the manga.Hence Ryukishi apologized and acknowledge his mistake.
>>485079337>way more fun to readhe does nothing besides obsessing over Touko. The ending hits hard because the game was blueballing you about it since minute 1, not as some statement to his detective abilities.>Masakiwe dont know why he's suicidal to begin with and no solving shit isnt a cure. The fact he had a purpose and people to talk to - mainly the latter, is what did the trick. The mystery had nothing to do with it.
>>485077852Some VNs improve on a reread.

>>485080671There's a lot of things that actually don't get explained by the end of the visual novels. Certainly lots of things get hinted at, and you can get a good idea of what Ryu's intended answer for the secrets around the murders are, but ultimately nothing in the text goes 'It was definitely X and they killed Y by doing Z.' This was done deliberately to keep the mystery of what happened on the island exactly that; a mystery. It's worth mentioning though that several characters in the game work out what happened, they just never share it with the reader.People how read Higurashi expected that and got disappointed with Umineko.Higurashi and Umineko manga is nothing alike, the Umineko manga tries to fix what the VN leaves without explaining and gave it a more proper solution.

>>485081236
>>485080954>the Umineko manga tries to fix what the VN leaves without explaining and gave it a more proper solution>fixDestroying the ambiguous nature of the VN with a definite confirmation is most certainly a downgrade over the VN, and a direct insult to the reader's intelligence.Besides, the only difference between the manga and the VN in that regard is that the VN shows an outcome as the probable truth, but has the confirmation stopped halfway through, while the manga confirms it. Anyone with half a brain was able to figure out that the part was only left open as a means to protect Ange.As for the rest, all of the individual murder cases can be solved with the clues given throughout the VN. Willard directly confirms which murders were real, and which weren't at the end of Requiem.There was no need to go through all of them again one by one to explain how things were done.
>>485079773>he does nothing besides obsessing over ToukoThe fuck? He barely does that. Outside of that one bad end where he fucks off after learning about Shinji's new book, he spends 90% of the VN ruthlessly pursuing Masaki's mystery. I can probably count the amount of significant Touko sequences involving Reiji on one hand (initial Chizuru conversation, dream sequence, briefly when the book shows up again, and the ending).Reiji's proactivity and strength throughout the VN is why seeing him in shambles at the end hits hard. That's part of the "blueballing" you're mentioning.>we dont know why he's suicidal to begin withYou really need to reread the VN if you can't infer why a man with as much trauma as him would be suicidal. It almost sounds like because the VN didn't have him saying "I want to kill myself because X" you're confused, in which case I have to wonder again wtf you're doing reading a mysteryge>The fact he had a purpose and people to talk toGranted to him by Reiji pointing him to the resolution of the mystery of the settlement. If just having those saved him, we would've seen him act differently earlier as he was constantly around Yukari and friends. But it's only after progressing the mystery of the settlement that his proactivity really starts to take shape. And it's only after solving the mystery of the settlement that his mood starts to seriously lift.It seriously sounds to me like you need to reread the VN and actually pay attention to the depictions of the characters rather than just go on jot notes. I'm not trying to be a jackass, I just read this myself a month ago so a lot of the stuff proving you wrong is fresh in my mind

>>485082997>>485083140You wouldn't a god.
>>485082739But umineko mystery only JOPs can solve it
Sometimes I wish I lived in the America Walken does
>>485081830while you’re correct, you’re going to be really disappointed by what happens to the characters in kns3
>>485083403So I keep hearingAt this point as long as the VN isn't a black screen I think I'll be pleased
>>485083403KnS3 rating on EGS is higher than the first two.
>>485083140>female goat looks like this>male goat looks like pic relatedwhat did r07th meant by this?
>>485081830If the game actually portrayed Masaki healing as the mystery is solved I would have remembered it as such. There is no logical connection between one and the other and Masaki is a boring character that I haven't given a single fuck about even after the game was done. KnS2 new cast sucks absolute ass besides the main girl in the prologue. Cardboard cutouts, lack of proper development for the schizo one and nof stakes certainly didn't help.Reiji's obsession with Touko is the core of his character in KnS2, even if he doesn't fuck off to search the mountains by himself as soon as the game begins.im not gonna reread that crap nor is there any reason in wasting time talking to someone who thought kns2 and umineko were good in the first place.
>>485083524>EGSanon, I...
>>485083524you’ll see for yourself when shira drops the tlit’s indefensibly bad but with some really good endings
>>485081852I somewhat like reverse bullet hell games and its a shame muvluv didn't put serious effort into that genre.Anyone who dislikes minimalistic graphics has no imagination/IQ anyway.
>>485083524>sequels are rated higherwow what a surprise
>>485083540>muramasafag sees biblically inspired depiction of goat-headed demons>thinks of black men raping his heroines (Mizuhi)Grim...
>>485083592Alright if you say so, I'd just advise against acting like you know what you're talking about because anyone that's read the VN will take a steaming shit on you kekWhich I guess is also what happens whenever you discuss Umineko
>>485083593good morning sir
>>485083797If it's supposed to be garbage compared to the first episodes it should've been rated lower.
>>485083540>not white goatsthe writer's barely-disguised fetish>>485083093GEM
>>485083832I can save her.
its owari da....
>>485083951people are retarded and they will rate sequels 10/10 just for existing while the people who didnt like 1 will never read 2 so it will naturally have a higher score. this continues ad infinitum unless reviewbombed when it becomes big enough
>>485084238umineko later episodes got bad ratings dough?
>>485084229AIIIIIEEEE
>>485084034>not white goatsHow many white goat demons are there, retardbro?
>>485084238This is why vndb has anomalies like EXTRA2 being top 20 best VN of all time when I dropped it half way through because it was so bad I couldn't stand it.
>>485084340>top 5The answer arcs are higher rated than the question arcs, thoughever.
>>485084393pretty sure the color was not written in the bibleryukishi who wished for that
>>485084548Stop inserting your fetish, muramasatard.
Is dies irae based or cringe?
>>485084478>lying on the internet>>485084615ryukishi was the one who inserted his fetish in his sound novel lol
>>485084548>In Murray 1921, the devil was said to appear as "a great Black Goat with a Candle between his Horns". Murray, p. 145.
>>485084747cringe
>>485084780>egs>>485084548he literally likes black skin color. nothing wrong with that.
>>485084881Baphomet is what inspired r07th, not Satan.
>>485084780>completely dead website up to episode 7>sudden spike in votes to reviewbomb the 8thkek EGS never fails to make me laugh.
>>485084747kino
I hate uminegros like you wouldn't believe
>>485084363>it just keeps getting worseman I havent had this much anxiety since the MLA base attack. And that ending....
>>485085057>>485084924dies irae vs fate vs rewrite? which is more philsophical?
>>485085140Hirahira Hihiru
>>485084975refer to >>485083860>>485085029>dead websitedon't you ever get tired from lying?
>>485085000>Baphomet is what inspired r07th, not Satan.Can't you at least pretend to have read the VNs you shitpost about, scatfag?
>ntrmasafag posting>race faggotry out of nowhere kill yourself
>>485085270>uploading a pic to btfo yourselfBaphomet inspired the goats, the stakes are a different demons.The goat headed demon with human body, fucking retad.
>>485085413This but unironically.Literally what made /v/ and /b/ unusable.
Why would Sachi do this?
>>485085463>/b/
>>485085429you can't expect literacy from uminegrosthey praise the fact they read 150 hours mystery without a resolution for said mystery
happy birthday to you~*swings bat*happy birthday to you~*swings bat harder*
>>485085463>/v/
>>485085104The action sequences in TDA were the best we had yet, muv-luv's incapable of fucking that aspect up. If only we had more of this and less SOL inbetween.chicken divers was also peak, they should have kept releasing ministories
>>485085463>/b/missing your sissy threads already, detbro?
>>485085690https://youtu.be/2wXk_ZqeBREforgot your video, king
>>485085858Kino. What VN?
>>485085887>not comparing the body shadow colorretard
>>485085973Fate
>>485085887lmao this cant be real...
>>485085228>>485085429Still waiting for your replies.
>>485086059>both is cuckshitclose enough
What do i read?
>>485087103The Quran
>like Umineko and Higurashi, KnS1 and 2, Muramasa, Tokyo Necro, Fate, and RewriteHow will I align myself in these conflicts now, each time I defend a VN I will be aligning myself with people that have seethed at me in the past
>>485087194read fate and abandon your worldly desires
>>485087194None of the people who seethed at you are past 20 so you have nothing to worry about
>>485087194only higurashi, kns1 and muramasa are somewhat good. you're auto aligned with retards. hide, apply.

>>485087194What are you... a mediumfag? Do you think this is a hugbox or something? How dare you don't participate in tribalism? It's thread culture. Better fix that behavior.
>>485087194You remember that /vn/ is full of retards and not give a fuck about alignments.
>>485085810i have my /gif/ bbc threads instead. i love umineko btw.
What is wrong with interracial sex or hentai? I don't understand why muramasafaggots get so defensive.
>>485087194It's literally just one guy (f*tespammer)
I love Karen
