I figured out her deal pretty quick
>>547420446our QUEENS
>>547420535What's her deal?
Did the English release of Mojika include the typing minigame? I couldn't find an pics/videos online.
>called Medusa because everyone got hard when she participated in a beauty contestlewd.
>>547421084it does but they left it untranslated. I've never actually seen any of the unlocks, so kinda curious but its too hard.
cool, I get to choose.Also since someone was wondering why im going through this so quickly, the other routes were like 6x 5-10 minute scenes at most lol
randomly generated VNs?
okay now it's RUINED
>>547421374>unlocksThe mode only uses existing assets so you're not missing much, but there are a few funny lines here and there. The "reward" for beating them all is just some developer photos:https://files.catbox.moe/op1bfw.mp4
>>547422380lol thanks. Really weird of jast to not at least include some kinda cheat mode for it if they didn't want to remake it into something else. I wonder if they even translated the lines

original position for first H https://litter.catbox.moe/rhcju6ig2hmjljlb.jpgThis one's properly fleshed out, it's kinda nice to have these no-bullshit routes even if it's sloppy. Romance instead of weird SoL friendship simulators. Hope don don patsu's game leans that way too
I like oppai plate armor
That last thread was AWFUL one of the worst ever ever ever @_@ What are you doing T_T
The fight scenes in Apeiria are absolutely ridiculous
I saw someone post this CG earlier and I didn't realize it was from AkaGoei

What do you do when your editor keeps insisting he's working hard on the project but you check the doc and can tell he's lying?
>>547431582Threaten to replace him with your good pal Grok
>>547431582Replace him with AI

>>547420082I just want you to know what I was actually going to buy and play this game until you posted this. I'm not joking.
>>547423083If I wanted a girl to say that to me, I'd try to have sex with my wife.
>heart pupilsSigns of true love
>>547432331They kind of went a little overboard with them in Amakano 3.
>>547432331It is a thing we love to see
I wish heart pupils were real
I wish oppai were real
>high school dropout>turboslut>stupidShe's the perfect woman...
>>547431582Is it editor-kun? Maybe he's telling the truth and just stuck on h-scene onomatopoeia again
>>547432331Is this smetana???
Thanks for the tip, I'd never have known if you hadn't told me.
>>547432454guess what, you could turn them off
>>547432657Yes, MC was cooking a nice meal until he accidently spilled cream all over her face. Thankfully she happens to be a huge fan of it.
>>547432923I'm not gay. What's next, you want to turn off the pubes?
>>547433028>What's next, you want to turn off the pubes?

>not even 30 minutes in>I already like him more than YuuseiYuusei wasnt bad, but after 2 somewhat long games, he was starting to wear me out
>>547433459Gonna wish you stayed at 0.00% when I find you
I miss Kiritani Hana.
>>547433459Have you actually committed to it yet?
>>547433678This one's fine, there's no way NN DMCA's me because it will NEVER be officially translated no matter what and it's impossible to contact the devs. I mean, they could just DMCA me for sport with no legal authority behind it, but surely even NN isn't that evil.
>>547433507I know it's intentional but the resemblance to Luna is very disturbing
>>547433779Nope.I've had multiple VNs that are mostly translated sitting around on hard drives for years that I've never finished.
>>547433845I want to see if he's male Luna (in personality) which would be pretty funny because Ion is pretty much male Luna already
I really, really hope this DVD isn't foreshadowing.

How will they justify you cheating on Milly with the new dragon-girl heroine in Cold War?
Post ginger heroines.
How do you guys balance your eroge chad life vs your work/love life?
>>547435067
>>547434735Parallel world where the events of the 1st ge are still canon but without MC commiting to any one heroine
>>547434735they will probably pull a nukitashi where the main events did take place, but mc didnt settle with her
>>547435156For some of us our love life is also our eroge chad life, and for some of us our work life is also our eroge chad life. It helps to multitask.
>>547435239>>547435308We already know from Prelude to War that's not what they're doing, it's a direct sequel to Milly's route in the original.I guess they could just be extra what-if non-canon unlockable h-scenes, there were a bunch of those in the original.

>>547439301She's as slim as they come
>>547435546Why does this look worse than the live2d from Nekopara that came out 10 years ago?
>>547439298YOOOOOOOO MY GOAT
You rarely see a VN this hard-carried by one character.
>>547439585Do you fap to this?
>>547439298What are you going to play today
>>547439298kill yourself troon
>>547439529Nekopara is a short VN so they can put way more effort into it.You almost never see longer VNs with extensive animation, because it's an absolutely insane amount of money and time to do it properly. So they do the bad, cheap version that looks worse than no animation.
>>547439619I fap to >>547439298
>>547439684nekopara is also cheap and takes shorter development time tho
>>547439298Kill yourself off-topic shitposter>>547439536>>547439631You should also kill yourselves.

He's rapidly rising to become one of the best characters in the VN.
This VN is actually so good.

AmatsutsumiMuramasa or some slav tumblr vn Which one do I finish my gaping friends?
>>547441559Muramasa
>>547441559Amatsutsumi has better heroines.
Anzu route and the FD finished. Probably my favorite route between both games so far. Seeing Anzu and Kaito's past and relationship was nice and the route itself was very engaging since you're finally seeing Kaito's past. It got me excited for the third game too, I hope Kinugasa doesn't troll me and I get to see some actual payoff with Akira, the foreshadowing with his perfect girl being Reika wasn't subtle in the slightest

>>547458284you will never*
>>547458581yeah, the overrated zoomie trash awardThis is a nice read if you go in not expecting much. The main appeal is the atmosphere of nostalgia, surreal melancholy, existential horror (say hi to Dostoevsky) and, for a post-Soviet resident like me, the USSR small-town setting. Both the artstyle and the soundtrack contribute to all of this greatly, which is, I think, my biggest point of appreciation. Really. I love it.This is a less-than-nice read if you expect anything more, for every other aspect is such a nothingburger. The plot is kind of there, but used less to tell a story, rather, just to make an impression/add to the overall vibe: to create a *sense of mystery*, not the mystery itself. The characters are fairly bland and stick to their archetypes the entire time, suffering a similar problem as the plot - existing solely for narrative purposes, not actually feeling real and expressing a certain idea. Funnily enough, more often than not, things characters do and say (mainly MC, since it's her psyche we get to explore the most) don't line up with the main narrative or even make sense in its frame. Thus, it's either supposed to be this way because the vn is actually about a slow descent into madness, which, according to the ending, not what the story is about, or the author himself is just confused.Concluding. Is it bad? No. Does it deserve 100% positive reviews (p.s. at the time I was writing this). No. Should you read it? Really depends on how much of whiny schizo-philosophy slop you can put up with for t h e v i b e.

>>547459137Steam is like Rotten Tomato where you just have positive and negative reviews that contribute to a percentage, expect it's not divided into two categories for positive and negative reviews. Essentially 2/10, 4/10 and 6/10 and 9/10 are the same thing respectively. You can round up medicore games to either and most people round up to positive to be polite, especially if it's free or indie.
Fine I'll read it just so I can shit on it better. Already slop to click through from the very first line, thanks for the sun infodump I guess>>547460242tl;dr normoids overrate crap

le stronk woman has boys afraid of her in le soviet unionyeah rightcant bear to read more of this shit, dropped. Self wank>>547461550im not grabbing the whole thing again but the game explicitly said the universe has nothing to observe but itself, so in order to make itself a better observation target for itself it tried to became prettier, and then in order to observe itself better it became an infinity (universe) +1 (humanity). Therefore it is not doing anything for humans, in that explanations humans aren't even a separate entity to begin with. The universe is self fellating, much like the author.
>>547461718>The universe is self fellatingAnd? If a human that's created in this process reaps some benefit from it then it doesn't mean that the process was intended to benefit the human primarily or even at all. Are you retarded?
>>547461917>then it doesn't mean that the process was intended to benefit the human primarily or even at allthanks for agreeing with me.
