>loli in lapThis framing looks familiar...
>read nakige>true heroine has keyaids and will die before the end of the summer>MC has a superpower to absorb people's pain, including illnesses, but in exchange he'll suffer them instead, meaning he could absorb her illness but would die instead>the resolution is massive spoilers do NOT read MC fucks his imouto to upgrade his power, allowing him to 'erase' instead of 'absorbing', then cures true heroine-chan and they all live happily ever after I'll admit, that was not how I was expecting the game to go. Honestly, it's not even a nakige, it's just a short moege
hitting a bit too close to home, Asshoe-chan
>>555545830That's a child
>>555545924lmao this rules. how did they even know it'd work beforehand?"i fucked my sister to cure your AIDS, now we can get married" is not a proposal story you'd be telling others at couples dinner
>>555545830Hmm...seems familiar...
>>555545830Hot what game?
>>555545830>>555546102Too familiar
>>555546103https://vndb.org/c101089
>>555546214lol i hit spoilers and did not expect any of that. you joppers are wild.
Also, the imouto gets 5 h-scenes while everyone else gets 3, they know what they're doing.>>555546090>how did they even know it'd work beforehand?Imouto offers to let MC absorb her power but to do so they need to have their hearts be totally connected (fuck), which upgrades his power. He then uses it to erase heroine-chan's power. He admits he doesn't know if it'll work but it's worth a try.

And there's the MEAT. Even lolis get meaty nips in Whirlpoolge.https://litter.catbox.moe/i3vomapkz6i4jewr.jpg
>>555546375Your chinami?
>>555546445Best girl by a mile and it's not even close.
>>555545959What VN?
>>555546604>the children have forgotten hoshimemoThis place was the hoshimemo general for like six months. Better times.
>>555546375i really love her sprites, voice, and overall vibe but they're missing a lot of the marks with heri think it's because she's vaguely the childhood friend archetype but there's already one of those, sorta, and i feel there's zero chemistry with her and MC. however she cannot possibly be worst girl when the sister is AIDS, i hate her, i want her to die. she's so incongruent to the rest of the game and sucks. god she sucks. hope she dies in game and irl.
>>555546587Not a single person has ever said this
>>5555466042026god i welcome you to the generalHoshizora no Memoria
>>555546587yeah if you're a big fan of an insanely annoying VO repeating the same joke x5, when the original joke was a 2/10 at maximum, then Chinami is goated as hellotherwise she is AIDS and i hope she dies and if i wish for it hard enough it may come true
>>555546694I have been saying it for a fucking decade, brother.>>555546676>>555546794You're wrong.
>>555546587I'll have to disagree with her designation as best girl, as I also find her annoying, but I respect anybody who'll champion a girl.
>>555546673>>555546735I know Hoshimemo, just didn't remember its name. :p
It's time.

>>555552053
>>555552216Are people really excited for monochrome mobius 2? The first one was utterly mediocre gameplay wise and the story couldn't do anything interesting due to being a prequel, and this is ANOTHER prequel.
>>555552053Saber

>>555505113>>555505113I'm on Chisato's and it's making me tear up like a fucking utsuge.Let her be happy you fucking cunt
>>555552738Well yeah, you can figure from the last scene of the game that there's more to the story than just Oshtor's funny adventures, but it's hard to have faith in anything when MM was just not good.
Is henpri ultimately just a worse and less funny version of Prison School?
>>555553013It's better and funnier.
>>555553013Half the people who shill it didn't even read it
>>555552216sorry, not reading allage and I know the story isn't going to reach the same level as haku's games to warrant reading it.
>>555552897As long as the character writing is still solid I'll get some enjoyment out of it, I'm mostly just interested in how it ends because they're hyping it up as the finale of the series as a whole and referencing a bunch of uta 1 stuff. Could just be marketing speak of course, I only hope they don't do something completely retarded storywise that ruins the end of the original trilogy.
kino atmosphere so far
>>555553013henpri doesnt have shit the bed ending like prison school so by default, it's already way much better
>>555553126>Half the people who shill it didn't even read itother way around, everybody who shits on it didn't read it

>>555553302I really want to spoil you due to how stupid the fucking kickstart of the whole plot of this kusoge is goddamn
>>555553559Yeah it sucks. Shame because the setting is cool.
>>555553302Agreed, it's the main thing I like about the old/er NTR+ games. Gritty soundtracks and sounds in general, good artstyle and atmosphere. It's the main thing I like in vidya in general and VNs are rarely good at doing these. Hanachirasu is another good one for this too.

>>555554658truth nuke. turkey sucks
Holy cute!
>>555554658Never eat seasonal food. There's a reason they're not served year-round and it's because they generally suck.Unless they're vegetables/fruit because they actually need to be harvested that time of year.
>>555554831Never eating vegetables.
>>555554831There are tons of great seasonal dishes:>beef wellington>christmas cakes>watermelon>pumpkin pie>eggnog>candy apples>Shamrock Shake
>>555553302>>555554197Play the version with voice acting nigga
>>555555086>wellington>seasonalYou can make that any time of year. The only seasonal aspect of it is the chestnuts, which aren't necessary. Is it associated with Christmas? Yes, which is why My father and I made pic related a month ago and it was glorious, but it's not exclusively seasonal.>Watermelon>PumpkinThose are fruits and vegetables, moron>EggnogIs ass, that's my point.I haven't tried the others.
I ain't white to understand what you niggas talking about

>>555555859sorry little bro but we are at war with gacha right now
>>555555572Damn, you're making me hungry — & I just ate.>>555555607iirc Study Steady was one of the first VNs Shiravune released. There's anti-piracy DRM that makes it lag a bunch. Shiravune's initial DRM was also so ass that you had to sign back in if you changed the game's directory. Hopefully they fixed it by now, but I wouldn't know I'm a piratefag.>>555555754Got what? I missed the 9 dubs by 1.
>>555555941Anon, you can't get dubs on /vg/. You got the closest post to it.
>>555556059>you can't get dubs on /vg/HUH!?

These are not good looks, bros. Particularly the left, I can't tell if that's one garment or he's wearing a black shirt on top of a white hoodie.
>>555556956What are you, the drip police?
It's a bit jank in execution, but I like the pet name gimmick in Study Steady. Weird how, ojii-san/uncle isn't an option. I feel way too old to be an "onii-san" when I'm almost double most heroine's age. Haha...

>>555566046@shigatsuyouka uses this place bro
>>555566124Back to your 'cord, subhuman.
I read about 20 times faster than most of the rest of you - with the exception of a few bibliophiles. What is a true chore, taking up tens of hours for you, might very well only be a short eight to ten hours for me. Reading that fast - whether in English or Japanese - gives me a greatly different perspective than a lot of the others here.My stamina for reading in general and reading VNs in particular is far higher than the rest of you. Fundamentally, the idea of breaking a VN up over the course of weeks or months is alien to me, since even the longest ones will only take me about thirty hours (even in a busy week, I can usually manage to squeeze that in during breaks and meals).Because VNs aren't drawn out for me, I don't suffer through the slice of life and daily scenes like some of you do. I can sit back and enjoy what I'm reading without feeling any stress whatsoever from the reading itself, as long as the VN isn't too bad. In addition, even scenes too difficult to read for the average VN-player are relatively simple for me to read, so i don't get significantly stressed out by that factor either.One of the reasons people tend to get tired of VNs is a lack of stimulation due to low reading speed. I read fast enough that a good VN's stimulation will be close to constant, whereas a slow reader will sometimes come to feel 'in-between' scenes that are meant to be short and informative as painful and long.The act of reading in itself can bring me something close to sexual pleasure if what I'm reading is interesting. The reason I like chuunige is because to me, the stimulation from a good chuunige is actually better than sex. There is always something going on and that something is usually meant to shake up the emotions or engage the intellect. Since, for me, reading something like this really does give me so much pleasure, I can honestly say that concerns about length don't bother me at all, lol.

time for a truthnuke:let's be honest: most of vinnies are shit. there are 35k jp vinnies. out of these >1/100 worth reading once in your life (if you like the medium), that's 350. >1/1000worth actually re-reading. this is the kamige zone. life-changing works. 35 vinnies onlyso where am i heading with this? that's right: JOP is a psyop. just think about it logically: who the FUCK cares in what language you read moeshit/nukishit? that's right nobody. there's absolutely no difference.>b-b-but muh le untranslatable jokerino!>nyoooo le hecking prose!!!>how else would i understand her japanese moans during h???this is all cope. all those reasons are superficial. you still have read the vinnies, even if it was in english or in mtl, because you "got" what the author was trying to convey 99% accurate (aka pretty much nothing since it's moeshit/nukishit, but this applies to shitty plotge too). is it worth spending 2k+ hours, aka 10 years of your waging """life""" for that? not on any planet>b-b-but what about le actual hecking kamige like muramasa/sca_ji/etc...you think you will be able "get" what they are trying to convey with your texthooking and yomichanning? or that you'll be suddenly know 100 years of japanese history and culture to get all the references after "learning" japanese? lol, don't kid yourself. you are actually DISRESPECTING those masterpieces but giving them a half-assed treatment/interpretation just to brag about it on xitter. you need to live in japan and do active japanese culture study/consumption for 20+ years (aka as natives did before reading 'masa) to properly "get" something of that caliber the way it was meant to be intended.......or you can just read the english tl and "get" 99% of everything in the time it takes to read it. it really is that simpletl;dr learning japanese for vinnies is a waste of time unless you are planning on becoming japanese, at least spiritually, and moving there someday
