don't won't to work
Erabe, /vn/
>>559861305This creature.
9nine is cuckge fuck off.
>>559861305>happy feet in the back
>>559861379every ge is a cuckge by that logic cause you are watching mc fuck your favorite heroine
>>559861379But it has no ntr tho
>>559861446The MC is me unless the game says otherwise like 9
>>559861446retard
>>559861448This ge goes out of this way to make you a spectator a "power user" that warns mc, kek this shit is beyond spiteful.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpKc8N3FJsQ
>>559861587Dude it's just a game. Go kiss your actual gf
>>559861305I don't think I'll choose, they're all ugly
>>559861813She fucking left me. ;_;
>>559861446Its not the same retard, its spiteful and goes out if its way to do that.
>>559861587Picked up
>>559861446That's literally what's happening in 9nine because (You) are an actual character that's helping the cast
>>559861828The actual best girl is the ghost who keeps molesting MC in his sleep, but she's not a heroine and doesn't have a route.
>>559861962Lmao
>>559861873>oh no this game explicitly tells to your face the uncomfortable truth of every ge without a self insert mc that anyone with 2 braincells can infer
If they invent VR visual novels in the future where you can literally become MC and inhabit his body and see through his eyes, will that retroactively make all earlier VNs ntr?
>>559861962I'm checking some of the H CGs and they all really have that voyeuristic pov feel.
>>559861962And this doesn't apply to the vast majority of ge's with choices and an mc that is his own character...because?. 9-nine was just more on the nose about this reality
Stop.
>>559862259This is what happens when men don't have imoutos. They become beasts.
>>559861565I should go back and actually play the Magnum story in Quest. I didn't do it because I was rushing to finish Quest before IX released and only had time to finish the main story
Ayanokouji is literally me Kinugasa created the perfect self insert and didn’t put him in a vn
I can only self insert as trap protagonists
>>559862470What are the last three VNs you read that you self-inserted into
>>559862162Probably because 9nine has a character actually outright talking to you unlike every other VN
>>559862470Read otome domain
>>559861105Izumi Tsubasu is a god tier artist and Noa is the cutest
>>559862527>unlike every other VNSomeone clearly hasn't read many Uchikoshi VNs.Other authors do it to but boy does Uchikoshi love that twist. We even used to call it blick winkel ing
>>559862625>allagesnever reading
>>559862679There are many great all-ages visual novels, like Hundred Line, Shigatsu Youka, or Summer Pockets.
El is literally me
>>559862759The fact you said hundred line alone disqualifies all future opinions. Summer pockets is a close second for this
>>559862625I've read Zero Escape and AI. I never went back to the others because people say he's just been reusing the same twists from his old novels this whole time.
How does Kuro from Albatross speak? Gonna comm porn of her and want it to be in-character.
>>559862759>great visual novels>Hundred line
next imoutoge when?
>>559862875Of the 150 hours or so that you'll read Hundred Line, maybe 20-30 are actually really good! Two or three of the 22 writers are great.
>>559863018I have to assume you're false-flagging because posting reviews from random vndb assholes like they actually matter at all automatically defeats whatever point you're trying to use it to support. Might as well be posting random screenshots of reddit or twitter.
update the page, editfags
>>559863034Sorry buddy, anything the hack kodaka touches is shit. Uchikoshi is also a washed one trick pony. Only the most bottom of the barrel braindead normies/fanboys eat up that slop and call it for anything but what it is: Slop
>>559862520The last ge I remember where I could actually self insert was kamisama choose
>>559863121>quof>random vndb assholesI can hear the plapping of you riding kodakas dick through my screen
>>559863121quof is one of /ourguy/s
>>559863034>maybe 20-30 are actually really good!That's more good hours than entire ges
>>559862896childish/retarded. You can probably just find an example from Kuro doujins, I know they exist
>>559863418>>559863320So you just blindly believe him? He didn't like subahibi and he said muramasa's message is shallow. Do you also agree to that?
>>559863175I always get them mixed up. Which is the bad one? Daiakuji or Daiteikoku?
>>559863175Editors are responsible for this.
>>559863574I blindly believe every /vn/ post.
>>559863603According to Tada it is daiteikoku but some people think that it is better than daikuji
>>559863574I don't have to agree with quof on everything to agree with him that hundred line is shit
>>559863418*was
>>559861446If you think about it, all porn is cuck porn. You're sitting in a chair and jerking off while watching another dude fuck a woman.
When did JOPs like quof,moogy stop visiting these threads
>>559864342I'm still here.
>>559864342Moogy never visited these threads. Quof was here when tobiden came out last year but then fucked off when he saw the absolute state of this thread
>>5598642512D male = its me.shrimple as
I miss Karenschizo
>>559864482You're a 3dpd. You'll never be a 2d male.
Who is this? What game is she from?
>>559864718That's where you're wrong, buddy. I already bought the steamroller, it's arriving in a couple weeks. I'll lie down in front of it and be perfectly 2d.
>>559864849King Arthur from Fate/Prototype
>>559864849That is Saber from the VN Fate/Stay Night.
>>559864849Saber from Honkai Star Rail.
>>559864849>>559865008>>559865176White women won so much. Every vn should have them.
>>559865438You like seeing white women getting fucked by Japanese men?
>>559865691I like pretending to be a white woman.
>>559865912No. Fuck you, leatherwoman. Why don't you get out of that uhh jabroni outfit and fight me? I'll show you who's the boss of this gym.
cute
>>559865691Yes.
>>559865809bro, you forgot to edit the hat on the portrait viewer on the bottom left
Omedeto, soon you'll finally be able to play the visual novel with the clingiest girl in any visual novel ever. These four koala pictures are basically the MC and her.https://vndb.org/r91527
>>559866692>editing not done>QA not done>engine port in progressAnon, that means 2027 if we're lucky and 2028 is more likely
>>559866768>NekonyanTRUSTTHEPLAN
>>559866692>Lazy>Clingy>Otaku>KouhaiThat's my kind of heroine, I'm actually looking forward to this now
>>5598611059 nine is a kusoge
>>559866768Even 2029 is a possibility. Shinsou Noise was 100% TL'd and 100% edited with image and engine work in progress in March 2023 and we still have no sign of a release date
>>559866692I hate clingy girls though.
>>5598611059 nine is a kamige
>>559866692More royal whites....
>>559861105The 9 nine translation looks kino. I should pick it up.
>>559867471...should get guroraped by gangs of orcs
9nine is the reason i never buy visual novels unless im going in for a second replay like grisaia or muramasa, fucking nips just have to sneak in some ntr zero tolerance for this shit.
>>559866768Trust the plan.
>>559868323>second replay>grisaia>muramasaSo, three playthroughs? Why?
>>559868508I mean like replaying a ge after some years passed i worded it wrong.
>>559868323
>>559868781Butas cant stomach muramasa tho? 9nine ntr kind is worse than some side chacter gangrape and i but muramasa in just for this comparison.
>>559868873>inb4 esl Im multitasking rn at work.
>>559861305I don't like these character designs at all.
>>559864342Don't think moogy has ever posted here (at least not with a name).I do think he used to post on /jp/ back in the day.
I love chuunige.
>>559869649kinoino
>>559868323>>559868873There wasn't any NTR in 9 Nine though? Yoichi threatens to rape the girls but Kakeru beats him before he does it.
>>559869649If you love it so much why don't you marry it?
>>559869792>>559861587>>559861962And (you) being character in the universe is le heckin plot twist(kind of) so i got baited into playing this dogshit thinking its just a waifuge. Some anon warned me tho should have listened to him, now im doing his share of work.
Hah! Called it.
Finally hit the OP in Kurogane. Probably the best common route in a Minatosoft game I've read since Majikoi. Definitely a very strong start, hopefully the routes can live up to it.
>>559864483Same.
>>559870347wtf (You)'re canonically watching MC bang hot anime girls while you're just jerking off alone in you're room!?
holy mother of comfy

shits;gayGEGAROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>559874198i think i'll wait until i read uminegro so i compare the 2 masterpieces
>pick up a mystery VN>100+ hours long>half of it is people arguing about whether magic existsPeak pacing, Ryukishi. Truly revolutionary.
>>559874382Nice media literacy. That’s not what it’s about, masatroon.
>>559874382
>>559874450Actually it’s a meta-narrative about fiction, authorship, love, perception, the death of the author, and Schrödinger’s cat.I just wanted to solve mystery, not attend a literature class.
>>559874382The real bruh moment is never giving any real answers and going, "Well reader, I gave (You) all the hints you need. (You) should be able to figure this out. :)"
>>559874382the magic fights are unironically the worst part. you have to sit through so much of that cringe shit eps 2-5.
>>559874558holy low iq
The game constantly says:“You can solve it. Everything is fair.”Ending explanation:The real answer is love and interpretationSo the solution is basically vibes.Cool.
>>559861446Many ge you're meant to take on the role of the MC. This cuckge you're a literal spectator.
>>559874902Your multi layer self-insertion reps?

>>559875603this is too hard for my moebuta brain..
>>559873319>Rance started out as a parody of Ys did you know?This is a myth that has been debunked I think
>>559875603heh...
>>559874902This.By normalfag logic "it just so happens" most of ges have male mc and harem of girls, totally not pandering to self inserts but to foids that love tv dramas or some shit lol.
>>559876012Damn how massive is your brain?
>>559876137This me
>>559875909He's....literally me, I...thank you...
>>559876137This reminds me of this shit https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/What_If...%3F_Vol_1_1They were on some fucking shit back then
>>559876507AIsir...
>>559876045>"it just so happens" most of ges have male mc and harem of girls To be honest I've also seen many veteran VNfags and JOPs who think like this
>>559876985I have seen many gachafags with the same mindset it’s not a normie or a veteran thing
>>559877165Gachadrones are just zombies with no self awareness

>>559877258Natsume deserved a rimjob scene
>>559877412True
>>559861105Rereading Steins;Gate after years and while the character interactions are often really fun and make me lol the novel also makes you read a lot of wikipedia tier lectures on (pseudo?) physics, fake 4chan threads, emails, discussions of IBM computers and large hadron collider etc. Can get kinda tedious, at least in the first hours.
>>559877532Have you ever gave a rimjob?
>>559878041>fake 4chan threadsFake 2ch threads, newfag.

>>559884790truth nvke foid btfo
ok fuck it it's too much work for an incelge
I -can't stand- people who read visual novels.
>>559884938Your AI agents do the work tho
>>559885072Same. I don't have anything against this medium. I just hate VNmongs and their attitude.
>>559885154i still have to>read the whole thing in jp>re-read the whole thing in englishalso considering that this is a philosophyge i didn't quite like the mtl so i'd have to fix most of the line manually. it's only 500 lines or so but i'm not sure i can bothermight as well read the game before doing anything else
>>559884790What does mc say?"N-no you"? I swear with those moralfags mcs how do they do it, this villain is 1000x times more relatable.
>>559885337You always find villains relatable because you're a bad person
