This game was extremely popular around here when it was first translated.Why did no Western developer ever try to build on that formula?
>>12254531Westerners are prudes
>>12254531>This game was extremely popular around here when it was first translated.Because it was le funny rape game
>>12254531I don't...It's not retro I think.
>>12255083It came out in 2006. Want a mindfuck? Song of Saya came out in 2003, it's only four months younger than 4chan
>>12256068Yeah but 2006 isn't retro. It's borderline.
>>12256084Borderline is, BY FUCKING DEFINITION, within the lines.
I played it for a few hours just to see what it was about, then realized if I want to play a tactical RPG there's much better games and if I want to fap I can just open an amateur porn video.Then I quit and deleted it.
I want to like Alice soft games more than I typically end up. They also seem to add some feature that just makes them needlessly tedious to play. There's either an obnoxious stamina meter or some hidden time limit and it ends up screwing you.
Underwater Ray Romano>Hyperweapon Posturing
>>12256546Yeah, they're good but never let us play at our own rythm.
>This game was extremely popular around here when it was first translated.I mean it has nice art and ok character design, but everyone wanted to play it because it's the funny rape game. Keyword is "here", I can imagine other places shutting any discussion down for this reason thus anyone who wanted to play it discussed it "here" because "here" didn't ban it. >Why did no Western developer ever try to build on that formula?Because it's not a good combination. If I'm in a mood for a strategy game then I'm usually not in the mood for porn and vice versa. At the end of the day the game is pretty mediocre at both things, there are better tactics games, there are better porn games and I'd rather play these.Also depending on the decade between 2006 and now you'd get annihilated by a different set of prudes for allowing the player to participate in rape.
>>12256131Wrong>adjective>Verging on a given quality or condition. I'm saying it's close but not quite, which falls under the realm of borderline.
>>12256671>>12256546Have to agree on that, it's a signature aspect of their games but it is a real pain in the ass sometimes.
Porn games that take effort and long sessions to play aren't worth it, Im just trying to jerk off. I don't even entirely mind having to play something for a bit to get to the goods but shit like this crosses the investment threshold and if I'm going to get this invested in a game like this it's going to be something legitimate and not just porn.
You know why OP, stop being a ragebaiter retard
>>12256846You don't HAVE to jerk off, anon. Most eroge fans play them because they tend to be experimental af in the gameplay department.
>>12254531>no Western developer ever try to build on that formula?well some of the ROT3K games got translated ....but in general /vst/ games are kind of dead now? esp turn based games.
>>12256068>>12256084Crysis and STALKER 1 is retro. esp if WinXP is a platform.
>>12256549Do the Utwararerumono games get better later?I've only played the first one but the SRPG aspects were so basic I think it'd have been a more engaging experience if it were just a VN.
>>12256846If "porn" means "immediate masturbation aid" then "porn" isn't the right word for games like this
>>12256926When playing eroge I expect I'll likely end up jerking off at some point but it's not something I start the game up to do right away
