/jp/ - Otaku Culture

So is Material Brave that shitty?
I basically see no positive comment in 2ch and egs

backlog =
kara no shoujo
little busters
fate/stay night
cross channel

what should I play 1st?(is the best)

Going through Katawa Shoujo now, looking forward to Little Busters and F/SN.

Recently finished Kara no Shoujo - a good VN overall, but true ending was a disappointment. Also, Tojiko dies and I can't change that ; _;.

Oh, and I also managed to (finally) finish Yume Miru Kusuri. Nekoko & Mizuki routes are just "ok", but I left Aeka for dessert and she fucking blew my mind. Easily the best route in the whole game.

>>8752969
well it will not win any awards thats for sure, but I have atleast been enjoying it quite a bit still, yeah it has quite bit of faults but I wouldn't really call it shit, average but enjoyable is my opinion of it so far

>>8752969
Well looks like the scenario is really, really bad.
The gameplay never evolves beyond being DS-lite
There are no routes and the story doesn't even conclude properly.

>>8753036
But at least it doesn't have routes, so you don't have to replay it!

>>8753036
Christ, with a name like Giga attached I thought there was kamige potential, oh well. Perma-backlog material unless there is a good squeal or more forgiving opinions appear.

I just started laying Hyper→Highspeed→Genius, heroines are decent enough and there are no horrifying flaws so I am enjoying it, Hikari is boner inducing though.

>>8752984
Kara no Shoujo has the most gripping plot of those, I haven't read Little busters though...

>>8753036
Eiyuu Senki has the same writer.
I'm a bit scared now

お前は大帝国というゴミシナリオがもたらした悲劇を知らない
あれに比べれば天国だぜ

Ahahahaha.
Skip

Little Busters! is getting an anime, by the way.
http://otanews.livedoor.biz/archives/51870735.html

>>8753084
Oh yes.

>>8753084
who gives a shit nerd

So, I just checked Material Brave's score on EGS.

Looks like Daiteikoku 2. I'll just go ahead and cancel my download then. I was so hyped too. ;_;

>>8753067
>>8753036

Well fuck, that doesn't sound very good for this months gameplay VNs.

Finishing up Majikoi then taking a break to play Tales of Xillia. Then Deardrops fandisc.

>>8753067
Eiyuu Senki always has had the landmine feel, now it just got stronger

>>8753036
I am, just so disappointed.

We doing a complete list, or just recent history?

Total list:

Katawa Shoujo (just completed that right five minutes ago, came here to exhale)
YMK
F/SN
Tsukihime
Saya no Uta
Snow Sakura (needed to calm down after Saya)

I... think that's all.

The only game I have yet to do in my immediate list is Bible Black. Have stayed blissfully ignorant of pretty much anything about it, so should be good (in a bad way).

>>8752984
>>8753008

> Little Busters

Worth looking into?

5 days for Root Double.

I can't wait.

>>8753475

> Came here to exhale after Katawa Shoujo

That feel, man. That fucking feel. Saved Lilly for last because I thought she'd be lamest.

My god.

Been meaning to ask... anyone know about Crescendo? Been thinking about getting it, but know nothing about it. Quality, or crap?

>>8753531
It's okay, I enjoyed it when it came out in English.

Slut route is the best route.

(I hope by "getting" you don't mean paying for it)

What are /jp/'s thoughts on 死神のテスタメント? Is it as chuuni as it looks, or is it worth it?

>>8753541

Don't think it's legal to buy these games and get them transported to Australia, anyway.

Actually, anyone know the answer to that one? I always wondered.

>>8753543
It doesn't seem to have been that well received on EGS.

>>8753547
Australia is the country that momentarily made women with small-breasts illegal.

>>8753543
A guy here played it.
Too long for what it's worth it.

>>8753553

I hope we rescinded that one. Did we?

>>8753547

It's not in Canada, and I think Australia is even worse, so I wouldn't want to be the one testing the waters.

>>8753562

Yeah... right on.

>>8753553
They took it back? Good to hear.

Still, it must've done wonders to all the small breasted women's self-image.

Just imagine being told "Anyone that finds your body attractive is a deviant and a should seek help(or go to prison)".

Modern culture already makes them feel bad enough by the constant advertising of the "big breasts=good and sexy" thing, getting this on top must've felt shitty.

>>8753571

Unsure that they did take it back. Wouldn't surprise me if they still had it going. Fucking backwards country I live in, I tell you what.

>>8753531
Crescendo is OK as far as translated pure-love galges go.
It is relatively short too, and for an average title like this it is a plus.

I personally enjoyed the nurse route the best. The slut route and the sister route were neat too.

Oh, and you should probably know that JAST cut some content off their release (after-stories and such), so the game might feel incomplete at one point or another (like in the... let's call it the hidden girl route).

>>8753587
It's not like the States or UK are any better, and Harper makes sure that Canada will soon follow.

English-speaking countries are fucked.

>>8753607
this is why piracy and the internet exists

>>8753607
Please don't bash Harper-sama.

>>8753634
Get out.

>>8753488

Makes me cringe for lack of jp x360.

>>8753634
remember when harper was actually sane and got stuff done as he replaced an increasingly defunct and corrupt liberal-led government as opposed to coming up with increasingly disturbing and non-functioning laws/legislations/policies?

>>8753845
Harper is fine. He hasn't actually done any thing that bad. And you have to remember it's not like he is the one that comes up with all the legislation. Any one in his party can table things. And his party probably has lots of things they want to do because they are a majority, and Harper has a hard time controlling them all. What is Harper doing right now? Last time I checked he was in Asia trying to strike trade up for us to diversify our economy and make us less US dependent.

The Conservatives are still a better choice than any of the alternatives. Would vote for them again. Anyway, this isn't the place for this discussion so this will be my last comment on the matter.

Playing 春季限定ポコ・ア・ポコ!

Really too early in the game to say anything about it, but I have to say.. this sprite kinda bugs me. The maid headpiece looks very plain and 2D, its like a 10minute paint job, really odd.

>>8753980
It's actually a very nice and bold design, it just clashes with the bland and boring uniform she's wearing.

>>8753980
That's indeed quite bothering. Okay, very bothering because the contrast is even worse with the art. Did they realize that they forgot to give her a maid headpiece and did a last minute job before releasing it?

>>8754014
Yeah that was what I was thinking as well.

Anyways, check out this zoom of the piano as well. Is it just me or is the hind support leg of the piano is missing half and the piano is somehow supporting itself and defying gravity? Well, this doesn't nearly bother me as much as Sakura's meido headband though. Since usually character sprites will be superimposed on the piano blocking the leg, and the piano isn't talk to me so I wouldn't pay it attention most of the time.

>>8754128
I'm more worried about what is going on with the keys on that piano.

>>8754135
It's a bass piano.

Any worth reading new release?
I'm bored as fuck and don't know what to read.

>>8754169
Try Kaminoyu, it's fun

Just finished IM0, I wish I played this sooner.
I didn't like it at the start to be honest. It started pretty generic and I couldn't take the whole temple/priest business seriously because of their clothes, the prostitute ingame wears less revealing clothes compared to them.

I want to play Verita next but I guess I need to play Genrin 1 & 2 first.

>>8754196
Are you me. I just finished it yesterday and was thinking pretty much the exact same thing.

Also kind of curious about the Genrin stuff. I can't really be assed to go through it if it's too archaic but apparently the protagonist is in Verita.

>>8754202
>>8754196

Verita is a direct sequel of Genrin 2, it literally takes place a week after the end of that game.
Also, though it's a small spoiler the main antagonist of the Genrin series is the main heroine of Verita and really the game is about her
So yeah playing or at least reading the novelization of Genrin 2 is a must

I tried playing the trial for Soukoku no Arterial, but the game becomes unresponsive right after the girl appears in the beginning. Just curious if anyone else had this problem, or if it's just me.

I've tried changing the settings as well as installing/reinstalling.

>>8754194
Indeed, the plot seems funny.
I'll check it out, thank you.

So what exactly is being said about Material Brave? I can't connect to EGS myself.

>>8754408
Basically it has a shitty scenario, it's a one route game, etc.

>>8754433
>it's a one route game
I haven't been paying attention to this game that much but the heroines are delicious looking, must be tough.

>Basically it has a shitty scenario
It seemed like it was pretty run of the mill, how did Giga fuck up?

>>8754441

>>8754408
Just looking at the top page for Material Brave...

70 median, 60 average. Lots of people gave up half way through. 60% of people couldn't fap to it at all. Protag is a manslut. Good art/music. Everything except the scenario is good. Giga mine. Bug that stops you from finishing osananajimi route. Interesting but fails to live up to expectations. Gave up, but might try it again if a patch comes out. "Looking forward to the next one!" (probably some Giga employee).

Seems like it's not unplayably terrible, but it's certainly not what everyone was expecting.

>>8754441
>how did Giga fuck up?
They're not exactly known for being stellar all the time. They have a lot of games under their belt, and a lot of them aren't very good while a few are excellent.

>>8754446
That is kind of harsh... I will wait until another edition/patch, I have other games to play.

>>8754448
I can't stand bugs but I can stand a bad scenario. I will make my own opinion but later.

>Protag is a manslut
That is what happens in one route games, I don't know why they wouldn't have additional ends.

Actually Material Brave has a median of 80 right now based on 22 votes(the main page hasn't updated yet) which is pretty decent.

The average is 60 though which is pretty crappy. Kind of a big variance. We'll have to wait until things stabilize a bit more.

The thing is though that DS was very good and being a successor of DS.....

>>8754511
>Material Brave has a median of 80 right now based on 22 votes
Not sure where you're seeing that. Search results for it list median of 80 with only 4 votes, but when you go to the page for it it has a median of 70 with 12 votes.

>>8754518
Maybe it'll be a DI sort of deal where they expand it with more routes and deeper gameplay in future editions, and pull it up.

>>8754511
I don't buy that as being accurate at all. Where's the site that filters out the corporate shills making new accounts to post 100s for their own games because I'm not seeing almost any overall positive comments on 2ch.

I just recently finished Umineko no Naku Koro Ni. Shit fuck stack 80 hours and almost none of the mysteries in the VN explained. I hate this shit yet I can't hate Umineko as I loved the show to death. The last episode made me roll tears a couple of times.

>>8754529

mp;month=1&kihon_mode=title&mode1=tokuten&erogame=null&coterie=null

That page generally updates the scores faster than any other on the site.

At least DS is getting translated.
;_;

Material Brave is pretty nice so far. Not sure why you guys like to spazz out over egs scores so fucking much. Feels like good, simple fun to me.

>>8753488
Nope. Root Double's release date has been delayed to "Spring 2012" (the reason being that the development team wanted more time to tweak certain aspects, mostly gameplay).

Continuing on with With Ribbon. And by continuing, I mean loading a save to a different route after every scene because I can't make up my mind.
The game has some nice touches involving how one of the character's personality and way of speaking changes depending on the choices you make, which makes a lot of sense in context of the game.
I'm slightly disappointed that certain side characters don't have routes, but there wouldn't be much in the way of side characters if that happened.

>>8754624
>Feels like good, simple fun to me.
The last bastion of the brain deficient.

>>8754624
I'm playing it too but the plot is generic LN level and I'm already getting tired of the combos.
To be honest I'm considering just replaying DS

>>8754706
and by 'certain side characters' i'm assuming you mean haruka, the protagonist's mother, the teacher and the blonde classmate...
I wanted routes for all of those characters...

anyway, getting on topic.
Currently playing: alternating between playing Your Diary by cube, dungeon travellers on the psp and replaying yosuga no sora.
Looking Forward to: various releases scheduled for the end of this month and for April, including da capo 3, mahoyo and the new eushully game (can never remember the name).
Recently Finished: katawa shoujo. also haganai, toradora and oreimo for the psp... all those pregnancy endings...

>>8754845
>the new eushully game
I guess I can say goodbye to April if it's anything like Kamidori.

>>8754862
Single player CCG?

Good luck with that.

I need a VN where I can be the little girl. I want to have tea parties and sleepovers.

I also want a VN that aims to curbs masturbation. I've heard of a sound novel for it but I want something in visual form. Something that will push my endurance but isn't sleazy.

RECOMMENDATIONS, PLEASE

>>8754845
>and by 'certain side characters' i'm assuming you mean haruka, the protagonist's mother, the teacher and the blonde classmate...
Well, yes.
Those are the only side characters with faces I've encountered aside from the obligatory-male-friend so far.
I know they have those short side stories focused on them that you can download, but they're unvoiced and take place after a route starts.

What's everyone else looking forward to for the rest of this month?

>>8756286
乙女が紡ぐ恋のキャンバス and Dracu-Riot
I'll grab Eiyuu Senki too, although I'm not optimistic, the battle system seemed a little simplistic from the trial

>>8756286
Venus Blood (wait what the fuck I thought it was coming out this month) and Eiyuu Senki

Probably Dracu-Riot, didn't have a good feel for Eiyuu Senki from its trailer.

&.
It looks like I'm the only one interested in it

>>8757624
I kinda am, but I don't enjoy Hino's writing much.

Since /vg/ posting appears to be down, might I ask here, are AGTH and ITH designed to work solely with Japanese text and locale? Tried to hook the text from the Chinese translation of Baldr Sky so I could look up some of the more obscure words, but got a random smattering of random kana in return.

>>8757645
Maybe it can't hook chinese, it hooks our alphabet and jap perfectly though.

>>8757650
I do remember using it to hook the text from the Chinese version of Fate/stay night a long time ago on behalf of Beast's Lair, though.

Currently playing Kamidori Alchemy Meister. Though, I did just finish Material Brave trial. I could only understand a few bits and pieces so I'm hoping someone will translate the full version. Going to post some screenshots I took of it.

>>8757658
Would also like an opinion on what I should start next:
G-senjou no Maou
Deardrops
Princess Waltz
Demonbane
Sengoku Rance

>>8757671
Don't touch Princess waltz, g-sen for a good story and sengoku for gameplay, demonbane for a fun time.

Completed "It's my own invention" chapter of Subahibi. IMO there was a bit too much surrealistic stuff and some pointless ero after Mamiya became 救世主様, but the last two days and the ending were really great.

But how do I unlock the next chapter? I go to スタート and only "Down the Rabbit-Hole" and "It's my own invention" are available.

>>8757675
Okay, will probably play G-sen then. I'll save Sengoku for when I feel like playing again. Thanks.

>>8754935 here
Please respond. I've waited for days, nobody ever answered me in the old thread and I need this. ;_;

>>8757677
You... didn't finish the true end of it's my own invention. That was Kimika's end. But
>there was a bit too much surrealistic stuff
was one of the best parts of it.

>>8757682
Don't expect too much of G-senjou.
I like it, but contrary to Sharin the plot twists are shoddy and drag the game down.

>>8757671
It is pretty easy to pick:
if you want mindtwists then G-sen
if you want gameplay then SR
if you want lighthearted stuff then Deardrops
if you want powerlevels then Princess Waltz or Demonbane.

Just check what's would you like and pick.

>>8757688
Romanesque has some pretty bitchin' tea parties.

The protagonist isn't a little girl though.

>>8757695
Hmm I tend to be easy to please so hopefully I don't feel the same way. After all, people called Kamidori's plot horrible and I found Yuela's route interesting. I'll keep what you said in mind, though.

>>8757692
Oh I see. Guess I have to choose "こんな現実を望んでいた" for Zakuro's エロ妄想 scene since I can't think of anything else I did wrong.

>was one of the best parts of it.
I liked the last ones with Kimika but earlier ones weren't that interesting.

>>8757703
Can you please give an example as to what kind of mindtwists G-sen has? Just so I know what I'm getting myself into.

>>8757723
That would be kinda spoilery, don't you think?
Just try it. You can always drop it if you don't find it fun enough.

>>8757723
>>8757721
>>8757682
notSena is kinda cute, I may the game a go just for her.

Just finished my first run at Material Brave.
Mediocre game, sure the gameplay is good but that's not the first focus I look for in a VN.
The characters themselves were interesting but poorly devevolpled outside of the mc's harem.
The mc himself is weird, he keeps switching between being the generic harem lead and the cool leader so many times I can't gauge him.
The plot is generic jrpg stuff and the final boss... just... ridiculous... I mean what the fuck ? They seriously went into testing, saw the scene and said "Yes, I want the final confrontation to be like this !".
Yes I could accept something like that in a generic eroge but the game took itself really seriously up to that point so it ends up being funny in a really bad way.
Finally the routes are pretty much not there, I feel no reason to replay the game only to have a few different lines of dialogue.
Try it if you're bored and looking for a decent action jrpg, but don't approach it looking for waifus and other VN stuff.

Now starting Friends, going for Mio because Erika is a weirdo, Yui suffers from bipolarism and autism, Cher/Shea/Whatever is the generic ice princess and Yuka sex harrassment is offensive.
Pretty generic so far but after MB that's exactly what I need.

>>8757837
Din Ena do anything at all?
I don't min spoilers.

Was she the last boss? I hope she was the last boss

Is Kanon worth playing? I watched and enjoyed the KyoAni anime back in 2008, and I'm wondering if I should try out the VN or just rewatch the anime.

>>8757862
Kinda, yeah, music is really nice and a couple of routes are still good.

>>8757862
Play the full voice version. Uguu~ everywhere

>>8757877
>>8757878
Thanks. Should I get the all ages version? Will the translation patch even work with the all ages version?

>>8757886
It should, just get any fullvoice patch.

>>8757847
>>8757850
Yeah, from what I could follow the mc was influeced by enigmatite as an embryo so he become the KING and thus able to control other neoplasm at his leisure, but the scientist came with a plan to use his powers to make all humankind ascend to a step futher than being unleash and to prepare for that they split the KING's heart/soul and created Ena the QUEEN, but the he was taken away by one of the scientists, and other stuff I didn't really follow, the plot is stupid anyways.
Then Ena gets minraped by the WILL of the island, which is the inherent instinct of the enigmatite to evolve everything it touches because don't ask, into going MINNA SHINEEEEE and you get a weird transformation with her voice going slow-mo aaaaaaaannnnnchaaaaannnnn, laughed so fucking hard at that, then I've put down my controller and realized I've wasted about 20 hours of my time for the story to come to that.
Also judging from the choices and the omake section I'd guess she has a true route but no CG scenes, unless they are hidden in the gallery.
I'm not going to bother anyways, Ena was a boring character as far as I'm concerned.

>>8757862
It's better than the anime, but the translation isn't very good.

>>8753008
Do you guys think the mc in Kara no Shoujo will wind up with that sexy doctor? I mean Tojiko dies and if you did all the scenes with the doctor they kind of have a thing going on. plus she was my favorite character.

>>8757924
>How does I black text??? Halp I am new to internet.

>>8757924
You should probably spoiler stuff like that.

>>8757924
Oh well that Tojiko girl was the only reason I wanted to play the game. Thanks for ruining it before I could even finish installing it. Asshole.

>>8757924
Impossible. And it's not something you would want. All the females in that family are crazy yanyans (Nana's route in Cartagra for example. . .)

>>8757933
So? I really like her. She was awesome because she was kinda crazy. I'm hoping in the next one they will be together already.

>>8757933
I think they would of made a good couple, she seemed like she was really depending on the mc and was lonely. she was also really down to earth in a sense, I would choose her.

I mean how could you not like her, shes beautiful and has a awesome personality. I really like her skin.

Been playing through that new Bishop game. It's just not Bishop without rape, ahegao, mindbreak and pregnant sex ;_; Also, this is probably how I'll picture Ixrec's girlfriend from now on.

>>8758364
It's such a happy game. I love it though, reading it slowly. It feels like Fai was made for me, hitting all my fetishes and she's even voiced by my favorite VA.

Disappointed at the lack of character interaction though but, I guess that's what happens when the heroines were originally onaholes (Unless there's a bunch once a route starts)

Why are H-scenes in eroge nearly always so fucking bad. They're called fucking eroge, yet the H-scenes are almost always absolutely horrible.

It seems like once an H-scene rolls around, in 9 out of 10 VNs the heroine loses all personality, the writing loses all quality, the fun and humor vanishes and instead what you end up with is a voice actress doing her best impression of a panicked piglet. It nearly always goes exactly the fucking same too, heroine is a virgin submissive and is in pain but she will endure it because she loves the protagonist oh so much and then screen goes white while heroine screams in ear-raping orgasm. No fucking variation. No two people having fun experimenting with each other for the first time. Just the same thing over and over.

Sometimes you get an H-scene where the heroine actually keeps her personality and the writing is good, but they seem to be so goddamn rare. It's outright bizarre for a genre of games where a large part of the selling point rests on it.

Nukige obviously are better and more varied at this. But if it's an eroge where it's story over sex, the sex scenes will nearly always be complete shit and skipped.

What my autistic rant here is saying is can anyone recommend me a VN where the sex scenes have heroines that retain their personality and they have fun fooling around with the protagonist?

>>8758391
A good writer must have experience in the topic he is talking about. It makes it more alive, more honest. Do you truly believe that the people doing this have even touched a girl in their lives? Hell, do *YOU* have enough experience in sex to know how it actually feels?

>>8758407
I stuck my penis into sex toys, with lube, plenty of times. I think I am an authority around these parts.

>>8758407
Why do you imply people are as worthless as we are just because they write the stories for eroge?
It's still a better job than most of us will ever have.

>>8758391
I'd support this request, but if I want to fap I'll get something to fap to, not something where I have to read for hours to get to a sex scene.
Actually, I can't really fap to most sex scenes anymore after I actually came to like the heroine.

>>8758391
I've been saying this for a long time

Most of /jp/ doesn't care, and I envy them in a way.

I didn't even finish it, but Sekien no Inganock was decent in that aspect, so you can try WAB series.

>>8758407
That's bullshit.

It's like saying people who make porn movies in the west never touched a woman, and that's why the porn is unrealistic.

A lack of experience is not the problem. If it was the issue, we'd get a lot of bad scenes, but all of them different, which is not the case. It's just another instance of repeating the established patterns.

And Japanese fucking love their kata.

>>8758430
> but Sekien no Inganock was decent in that aspect
Because the writer was a woman and the whole series H scenes care about the feelings between both parts than about being hot.

>>8758407
a few writers (see Rance) -are- girls, I know a few eroge artists are married and with children. The point is not making it a realistic experience, but giving what they think the public wants, which is usually heavily formalized. Mostly for them standard is good (see: 王道).

>>8758437
I like having ero in VNs as a part of the development of a relationship, but I really prefer this approach to the scenes. I've got the visual aid already. I don't need to read 300 lines about the precise interactions of meat involved

>>8758391
母娘ねぶり　～誘う人妻・抱かれたい母娘～
http://www.getchu.com/soft.phtml?id=430825

I thought that was pretty good. I only read Yuri's route. Sexually assertive heroine since husband is gone etc. It's not pure sex; I thought the scenario was pretty interesting, and you don't waste a lot of time with other characters

If you are looking for younger heroines, can't help you there

>>8758428
I don't really want want to fap to it, I don't really like fapping at the computer. It's just when the sex scene is actually good and enjoyable to read, it helps in forming the relationship with the heroine and protagonist and developing their characters.

>>8758447
>formalized, standard
This seems to be a big part of it. If anything I'd say I get the feeling that it almost always seems to happen outside of the story instead of being part of the story. Like the sex scenes are from somewhere else, crudely sliced in at certain points. They act like sex is the end stage of romance instead of an important part of it. In most VNs it seems like the entire relationship leads up to that one thing and then the story of the relationship just sort of peters out.

An odd example of something I liked is is Ruitomo. Once Rui and Tomo's relationship starts, they start fucking like rabbits in heat, they both have fun and are very much a young couple in love. It leads to amusing scenes like their friends wondering why the fuck they have suddenly stopped showing up to meetings, or the two barely being able to keep each other's hands off of each other in-front of others. The sex scenes weren't particularly good or realistic or hot or anything like that, but they felt like they were actually part of the characters and story.

Eiyu Senki is (probably) being released on time. Her updates have always been stable. The trial scale extremely well with screen size and can be set to full screen on a secondary screen. From how I see it, the project is going on very well with equally sound technical background. I have faith in a project going so well like that.

That doesn't really have anything to do with it turning out to be shit or not.

Honestly the writer sucks and from what I played in the trial the gameplay felt like it would get tiresome rather quickly so I don't really have any faith in it. I'll still play it anyway

>>8757957
is she from Kara no Shoujo or where? and indeed she look gorgeous, i love also characters who wear eyepaches/monocles

>>8758644
yeah, shes a very very cool character, my favorite from the vn, plus she like anal. I just have a feeling the mc might get with her in the next vn.

>>8758391
Have you read Katawa Shoujo? Yeah, it's babby's first VN, but the H-scenes were wonderfully done and kept the heroines' personalities intact.

>>8758673
I went through it around a month ago, it wasn't my first VN, but it was the first I've played more than one route (tho couldn't get myself to finish Shuffle! even once, it was quite boring).

So far I've gone through:
ef - A Fairy Tale of the Two
Katawa Shoujo

Starting LB!

Anyone knows where this screen comes from?
I've searched everywhere - google'd and vndb'd - but i can't find it anywhere, someone knows?

>>8753129
You won't know unless you try it yourself

>>8758886
It's a fake screenshot.

>>8758886
I think that's just a shop from an anime.
The GUI looks especially like it's from Flyable Heart.

>>8758916
Onbviously, since Noizi Ito designed both.

>>8757699
Thanks. Anything else?

>>8758916
>>8758913
So there isn't a Visual Novel of Another right?

>>8759188
No. I'm afraid you'll never get to stick in Akazawa.

On the topic of H-scenes, I think Himawari is a good example of a VN where they're well-written and integrated into the story, especially Aqua's. The conversation during that scene was awesome. Also Tenshi no Inai 12gatsu, I guess, in a completely different way. The sex scenes don't take place as part of a traditional romantic relationship, but the characters turn to sex because they're desperate and can't find meaning in their lives. (If that sounds emo, it is, but I liked the game anyway)

I've been thinking of giving this a try, but I get a vibe this will be one of those no-branches one ending only stories, while instead I'd like plot branching and multiple heroines routes.
Anyone cares to tell me which one is it ?

>>8759412
Ocelot games tend to be linear titles.
Relatively short as well.

>>8759426
Yeah, which is why I'm asking holding some hope.

>>8759431
Well, in that case, I can't be of much more help to you than that as I'm waiting for my copy to arrive with my other March titles.
Sorry.

I thought this was interesting. It's some of the color designs the artist went through for one of the heroines in DRACU-RIOT.

>>8757924
>I mean Tojiko dies
Fuck you anon. Kara no Shoujo was near the surface of my backlog, and now you spoil that shit.

>>8759865
It seems like the post was made by milf-autist.
Please do excuse him. It's not like he can help it.

>>8759464
Despite that character being featured in a good portion of the countdown videos I never noticed her side ponytail thing before.

/jp/ how do I use the BGI script tools for subahibi?

Material Brave's under Daiteikoku now. Ouch.

>>8760939
Damn, and I was looking forward to it, too. Seems it's time to twiddle my thumbs until the next Baldr.

>>8760939
Median of 60, average of 56. The game is such a disappointment, and now I have nothing to play this month.

>next Baldr

That would be nice...

Aside I just looked through this month's release list again, not much to hold out for so going to start Asairo since my last affair with propeller was quite pleasant.

>>8760976
Fortunately EGS scores are never an indicator of quality. Otherwise the top 10 wouldnt be filled with garbage.

>>8762123
When something get some many bad votes so fast it means something is wrong
And there is no garbage in the top 10

Does Material Brave get super bad later on or something? I'm in Chapter 5 and it has been a rather pleasant experience so far.

I started playing Ore ha Shoujo Mangaka after seeing it actually was pretty well received, and it's good so far. My only complaint would be that there is no route for a girl I like.

>>8762168
The plot gets stupider and stupider with time but it's never ostentatiously bad, the end game is pretty horrible though.
The other problem is that MB is kind of a sequel of Dual Savior yet somehow manage to be weaker in every areas, I assume most people who voted did DS too

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm17343841

I wonder if my himawari+voice patch download will actually work. I'm honestly too lazy to read something so long unvoiced.

>>8752962
The girl you like never has a route, you should've learned that by now.

>>8762246

I don't know about your specific download, but I did get the voice patch working a while back. I only tested a few lines though, it's still in my backlog.

>>8762342
I had a horrible luck last time because I couldn't get the engine to work.

>>8762191
You know, I kinda liked the setting, it was generic but it worked and the battle system was entertaining if you're into linear action jrpgs.
But it just drags on and on, nothing happens you really give a shit about, first terrorists, then terrorist' revenge, then robots, then the the WE WERE THE BAD GUYS ALL ALONG obligatory moment. And every goddamn boss is protected by plot armor, and after you kick their ass for the fuckth time and they go OH OH OH I'VE YET TO SHOW YOU MY TRUE POWER/WE'LL MEET AGAIN SAMURAI JACK AHAHAH it gets ridiculous and feels like you're beating team roket over and over again.
And the obligatory story and gameplay segregration, the characters staying immobile as events unfolds like there's a time-stop, the BORING time sink that are the in-between actions you can use before plot progression which probably is to push the player into going full harem even if you don't want to.
The engage system is stupid and a grind-based and not even necessary, I've played on hard and the game was easy.
IF this was a sandbox game, where you have actually freedom of action, kinda like in a dating sim, where you get to chose your partner in the first half by doing dungeons and unlocki events, then you get a different route in the second part, then it would've been fine, but like this it's too linear for the market it's catering to, VNs better point if the flexibility in their story and their creativity and this fails at both.
This is more like Ar Tonelico, a jrpg pretending to be a VN not the opposite, only Ar Tonelico was actually good.

>>8762131
This isn't true at all. EGS voters are fucking bitches, they'll often vote in full mass to punish a company for some transgression or another that has nothing to do with the actual game.

>>8763094
I'm sure. It's a conspiracy against things you like. Those filthy Japanese always ganging up to pick on you.

>>8763174
I'm not saying that's the case here at all. But there have been quite a few instances of it in EGS, usually it's because a company outright lied or something like that though. Still not something I think should result in punishing the game with bad votes though.

Are there any /m/ elements on Rewrite?
Asking this as Rewrite looks like one of those mashups/clusterfucks of random Anime tropes that Japan loves so much.

>>8763190
>They may have done horrible things at some point. Not saying it happened here, but form your own conclusions.
Are you Rush Limbaugh?

Does the "Full Edition" version of Tsuyokiss include the extra routes from the PS2 version? The VNDB entry is ambiguous.

>>8763255
If you mean Sunao's route, then yes.

>>8763205
Nope, it's about espers and demon summoners mostly.

>>8758391
just ctrl past that shit, h-scenes always feel garbage and forced

Play Muv-luv or Tsukihime first?

>>8763517
Depends on what you're looking for in a VN, and how many you've already played. >>>/vg/2546983 can help you better, there are more of them there.

>>8763478

Here's a surprise, good writers (sometimes) make good h-scenes. Oretsuba had very good sex scene, not in the nukige sense but that they showed the personality of the multiple protagonists and the heroines very well. YFB and all that. The sex scenes of the twins in renai zero were also pretty good.

Then you also got stuff like Majikoi where once you saw one sex scene you pretty much saw all of them.

>>8763564
>Oretsuba had very good sex scene
Depend, Hiyoko and Naru had great scenes but Kobato's scenes made me feel like I was raping her

>>8763564
>Oretsuba had very good sex scene
They were pretty standard for most, and some were just plain shitty.

I can finally start ALMA after downloading at a snail pace for a month.
Hopefully it will be worth it, it's supposed to have a great imouto route which is always nice.

>>8763995
But Garuda's was awesome

Also the one with Naru wearing the Flame Birds shirt

This seems a good a place as any to ask

I just downloaded Muv Luv from eroge download. I went to install it but my antivirus is telling me it contains a trojan.
Is my antivirus being paranoid or should I search for another means of obtaining the game such as buying it

>>8764551
>>>/vg/2546983

I'm sure they will be the most suitable to help you.
And buy it.

>>8764551
AVG is known to hate Muv-Luv. Switch to Microsoft Security Essentials.

>>8764551
Why even use an antivirus? I don't use one. Just uninstall it.

>>8753129
Lmao look at the fanboy sperg out his hate.

>>8753281
Kawaiiii! XD Look at the funny comedy gag this hilarious internet game shows! LOL this is the future of animeishun not like Daiteikoku or other game I have my sources from some shitty website it sucks! EPIC LULZ FOR THE FUCKING WIN! XD

Finished a route in Triangle Heart 2.
Hoping the other routes don't share too much text with it.

>>8765224
It's a fandisc, don't sprain your fingers over it

>>8765482
>sprain your fingers
wat

>>8765519
A finger sprain is stretching or tearing of the ligaments that support the small joints of the finger. Ligaments are strong bands of tissue that connect bones to each other.

A finger sprain usually results from a blow to the finger. This often occurs during athletic activity when an athlete jams a finger into another person, the ball, or piece of equipment. Finger sprains may also occur in other situations, such as falling on the hand, or typing when mad

>>8765560
Did you just copied that from wikipedia?

>>8765560
Did you just copied that from wikipedia?

Any anon happen to know if its possible to go back to the very beginning of Down the Rabbit Hole I from the select screen?

Just finished Muv Luv Alternative.

Did not like the downer as fuck final chapters. Felt like Age completely flubbed the ending/epilogue as well. There was not anything brilliant enough to make up for what you lost. It gave me bad flashbacks of the ending of Blue Gender.

So I am looking to BUY something from mangagamer. Hey, they were good to me for getting me my money's worth with KiraKira, what would be a good next purchase? I am thinking either Edelweiss or Shuffle.

Playing Tales of the Abyss 3D

Looking forward to Xenoblade Chronicles

>>8766084
If you are going to buy something blind then don't.
Pirate both of them and check if that stuff is actually worth your money.

>>8765894
You should get a new choice at the start of Down the Rabbit-Hole. Not sure if you just need to clear Down the Rabbit-Hole II or the whole game first for it to appear.

>>8764551
Upload it to a mass scanner if you're really worried. Eroge are often infected with something, even on Share or PD. Also, I use virtual machines because I'm not retarded.

>>8765894
>>8766509
Tested and seems the new choice appears after playing "Down the Rabbit-Hole 2". I haven't finished the game myself yet.

But I just played through "It's my own invention" true end. Holy dickings.
If it's going to stay this good then SubaHibi will rise to be my favorite eroge.

>>8767210
I found Looking glass insects to be the best chapter of the mystery part of the game.
That foreshadowing.
That craziness.
That Kimika route.

>>8767302
Looking Glass Insect is one of my favorite part of the game too though it doesn't seem to be a very popular opinion.

>>8767412
I find scenes like Zakuro's fake flashbacks and Mon panache to be truly great.
Some scenes in the true end were a bit on the strong side and I ahd a hard time taking them everything related to Zakuro's bullying and rape mostly

VN newbie here.

completed: katawa shoujo, policenauts, 999, saya no uta, omgwtfotl
backlog: tsukihime, snatcher, corpse party (almost finished)
now playing: divi-dead

i find that visual novels are a great medium for horror stories. what is the most terrifying VN you have read?

>>8767426
Katawa Shoujo

>>8767426
>what is the most terrifying VN you have read?
That would be Sayonara wo Oshiete, shit gets unnerving as fuck. It exploits and utilizes the medium quite well to nice effect, the theme throughout the game is very strong. It's a really well done VN.

>>8764239
Rather than starting Alma immediately I did a small doujin game called Last Purify
It's about 5 hours long, not voiced but other than that the art/music/special effect are pretty much commercial level..
The story takes place in a dystopia, basically after a world war 3 that decimated most of the world due to the use of nukes, an organization appeared saying that the only road to true peace and equality was for people to discard their humanity, their feelings since without these there would be no conflict.

That organization quickly managed to conquer the world but only once city in the entire world still resist, Tokyo (of course).
The protagonist is a 13 years old boy who lived all his life in that dystopia but somehow managed to drift in Tokyo.

Well just by seeing the synopsis you can see where the story is going and for sure it doesn't go in a direction you wouldn't expect but it's done pretty competently, the writing won't win any award but it flows well.
There are 2 endings, first time around there are no choices and the game end in a pretty utsuge way but the second time unlocks choices and a happier ending.

All around it's pretty good, in the 8/10 range.
It's also free which is always nice
http://www110.sakura.ne.jp/~sundervolt/last.htm

>>8767520
Thanks for the link, I love finding interesting new doujin stuff. Most of it is pay-only though.

eiyuu senki leaked >>8767432

>>8767705
dat ass of napoleon

Is it worth reading Little Busters yet, or should us folk who havn't read it wait for the EX/ME patch?

Which is apparently in the works

>>8767779
LB works fine as standalone, save for Kud's route, which is pretty disappointing in the original.
EX new routes can only be read after finishing the original, so you don't lose much by reading it now.

Well, even though the art and character designs don't really appeal to me as a whole, at least the new Softhouse Seal game has made me giggle a bit.

>>8767895
Thanks for the response friend.
I've got a half complete save file (Haruka, Kurugaya, and half of a ... Blue haired lass whose name I can't seem to remeber.)
That I've been sitting on pondering whether to read or not, for... The last 1.5 months?

>>8767928
Go read it. Refrain is easily the best part of the game.
EX has a really good route, Saya's, and two more normal ones which basically spoiler the game.

>>8767302
>>8767412
>>8767416
Rabbit Hole anon here. I had a hard time with Looking Glass Insects too, its easily something I'll never forget for as long as I live.

>>8767936
Looking glass insects is so SPIRAL MATAI.

>>8767210
What I meant anon is that is it possible to go back to Down the Rabbit Hole I after you've completed that and Rabbit Hole II. Whenever I select Down the Rabbit Hole from the select screen, its starts with the beginning of Down the Rabbit Hole II. ATAMA REVERSE

Has anybody played Euphoria? The strong black/white visual theme and the initial story hook caught my interest, but other than that it seems like it's just a rape nukige. Is there anything of substance there?

>>8768011
Oh yeah, you'd be surprised.

>>8768011

Actually the substance part is pretty well done, you even get proper character developments that aren't just jumps of faith. Hope you do enjoy the various fetishes though.

>>8767982
Yes it is, like I said. The choice pops up after the OP movie during the train scene. 「少し散歩していこうかな」 takes you to "Down the Rabbit-Hole I"

>>8768229
What I mean anon is the very beginning of Down the Rabbit Hole I, with the lines from Cyrano de Bergerac.

>>8768011
it has suprisingly good plot in the end, not like you would first think when reading the description, the first half of it is mostly nukige, but the second half is more plot focused.

>>8767927
I just started it a while ago. I personally think the heroines are pretty cute, and to be honest I was mostly interested in having a great fap and improving my Japanese, but I'll keep playing for the silliness instead.

>>8768488
Well, I'll admit that post was partially spurred on by my frustration at the heroine who's design I far and away like best having only 4 scenes, one of which was completely unfappable to me due to content.

Out of these three games which is the one that is the most worth playing? I am bored and have these three installed, I am capable of making my own decisions but I would rather not spend time on a game if it turns out to be bad after awhile.

Sumaga
Aiyoku no Eustia
Sona-Nyl

>>8768903
Do you enjoy the WAB series? then Sona nyl is the best from it, you need good hearning skills because voice/text dissonance.
Sumaga is really good but the second half it just... falls down and starts going a bit overboard and mostly treats the heroines as fucktoys.
Eustia is good but craps itself in the last chapter and leaves you a bitter aftertaste.

>>8768916
I liked Inganock a lot, I give it 9/10. I haven't played anything else in the WAB series but I find it hard to believe that Sona-nyl tops it. I am intrigued by it after reading a review and the synopsis, this will be my choice.

>Sumaga is really good but the second half it just... falls down and starts going a bit overboard and mostly treats the heroines as fucktoys.
It didn't seem to have a sane story to begin with judging from reviews. It is Nitroplus so it doubt it will be a waste of time as Nitroplus is the best game company on average. The heroines are fappable so I can bear it.

>Eustia is good but craps itself in the last chapter and leaves you a bitter aftertaste.
This is what I was wondering, just saved me some time, maybe. Is it bitter in that you think the writer should fuck himself or did it make sense in the story? The worst stories are always when you hate the writer.

More like Sumaga is only decent towards the end. The first few routes are pretty shitty. Necessary, but shitty

>>8770194
The last chapter of Eustia makes sense, it's just that the execution could have been better.
I don't think it's anything game breaking though, Eustia is definitely worth reading.

>>8770201
What? Spica route was fine. Its only Garnett route that sucked.

>>8771558
Oh yeah, and even that only sucked when it came to the girl drama part. The best main plot stuff was there.

>>8770194
>The heroines are fappable so I can bear it.
The porn in Sumaga is... strange. Not as in like fetishes and demon dildoes, but it's just drawn weird. I don't know how to describe it. It's just not very attractive. Everyone looks fat when they take their clothes off.

>>8768916
>>8770201
Well, the later parts of the game are kind of like a big middle finger to the three main heroines who make up the title. If you liked them a lot, you'd probably be disappointed by the later stages of the game, where Spica and Garnet literally lose 100% of their personality (though Mira still occasionally does some awesome shit later on in the game). That said, it's not like the later parts are bad. It just focuses on different characters. The game really wouldn't have any sort of ending if it didn't change focus to Arided and other spoilerific characters at the end.

DRACU-RIOT is out.
New Yuzu-soft goodness, all their games are the same but they do moe really well

>>8771863
No one gives a shit. Tell me when & comes out.

>>8771872
& will probably end up being pretty bad.
Hino is just a side writer and the trial that contained almost the entirety of the common route was pretty bad

>>8771882
In that case, fuck this entire month.

I'm still at chapter 6 of Material Brave and I just have to ask do I need to level up everyone on my team or just concentrate on one?

>>8771863
Oh boy.
Time to hide the thread and wait for it to arrive.

>>8771558
Spica's route was average, Garnet's route was average, Mira's route was pretty awful.

The only good route in the game was Oki's. And the alternative routes for the original 3 weren't good but they were at least more novel in feeling because they took the concept of the game to its full ridiculous potential instead of being a boring story.

>>8768903
Eustia is the best choice.

>>8771872
>No one gives a shit.
Good thing you're here to tell me what I should give shits about or I'd be lost

>>8772368
Mira had the best route if you're not an enormous faggot.

Mira's route had that teeth pulling section where he tried to date multiple girls at once. It was like I was watching an 80s/90s sitcom.

In fact that was the entire problem with the game. It felt like it was putting in a bunch of painful and unenjoyable cliches on purpose, but just because you put them in on purpose doesn't stop them from being painful and bad.

Like, when you look back after you finish the entire game and see what the entire point of it was, you can say "Oh, well that's neat" but the actual process of playing through it is pretty painful.

Wonder if Urobuchi Gen is planning on writing any more VNs now that he's a big name in the anime world. I quite liked Phantom and Saya, and Kikokugai was enjoyable as well.

>>8773028
I hope he doesn't, he just tries so hard to make something dark.

>>8773028
Very doubtful.
Though I would like it if he did, he never did anything really substantial but it would better than whatever Shimokura can do.
Fuck, when will the next Narahara masterpiece appear?

I get a strange error everytime i try to start Tokyo Alice.
It can read ANSI and UNICODE, the rest, is moonrunes, and with it a window with something like code appears.
I tried with applocale and NTLEA, but nothing, I really have to change the locale to japanese to read it?

1.01 patch for Eiyuu Senki's out before the game is. It adds functionality that didn't make it into the game in time for release.
That's not a good sign.

Why is there so few yuri eroge?
And among them none have satisfying romance, even Katahane that is supposed to be among the best in the genre.
I hope the new Liar-soft yuri eroge will be good.

>>8773527
Talking about this, the Liar-soft yuri eroge 屋上の百合霊さん was just uploaded.
Seem fairly small, only about 800mb

>>8773527
>Why is there so few yuri eroge?
Because yuri is shit and only westerners like it.

>>8773527
The best yuri route I've seen in an eroge actually come from a "normal" one.
I've already mentioned it here before but the eroge 僕と、僕らの夏 has a route where 2 "pursuable" heroines, including the main who is also a childhood friend, actually get together fully.
It was really well developed with a good amount of scenes and even a good ending.
And it was pretty satisfying seeing them forget the protagonist because they were too busy fucking the everliving out of each others, especially since the protagonist was pretty dull, and probably the biggest flaw of the game.
Though I guess calling him the protagonist is a bit much considering he narrates only about 30% of the game.

>>8773621
Does the route actually move to focus on them and pretty much the protagonist is forgotten and dies in a hole somewhere? That sounds interesting.

>>8773527
The Sono Hanabira Ni Kuchiduke Wo series is cute but not particularly romance-based. You might like it.

>>8773638
The game has a dual protagonist system, meaning it keeps switching between the protag and the main heroine, even when you enter a route.
And during that route the protag has his own thing going on.

The second half of the story is also completely narrated by another heroine so the majority of the game has a female pov

>>8773527
Yuri isn't a very popular genre due to how shitty it is.

>>when will the next Narahara masterpiece appear?

Given nitro+ release pattern, may be in 4-6 years. That's not to say he wouldn't write for another studio during mean time.

>>8773955
Who are you quoting?

>>8774322
He was actually quoting someone.
>>8773070

So she's basically Sakura 2.0. I am pleased.

>>8774780
So they went from an Oujo-sama school to a casino?

>>8773370
Quite understandable (and not at all uncommon) considering they have to send the game disc image to the manufacturers days prior to the actual release.

Playing Draculius, it's pretty cool.
Belche is the best character

>>8773028
Well, for now, there's this announcement on the Nitroplus website:
http://www.nitroplus.co.jp/news/2012/03/120322_2894.php
Doesn't seem like he has enough time to write VNs now.

Eiyuu Senki is out, only & left for the titles that interest me

Haven't fapped for a couple of days, impatiently waiting for 放課後☆エロゲー部！

>>8775987
It's out

Just finished playing Lose's 1st demo (there's 3 of them) of their new eroge named Monobeno and I gotta say I'm impressed, I like the setting and love that it has Youkais as their central theme and I love they are using the same system from Gothic Delusion, can't wait to see those crazy effects that are just as good as Muvluv's.

!st game from them was Gothic Delusion with the main girl being a loli voiced by Kud's VA and now in their new eroge the main girl is a loli voiced by Illya's VA.

Oh and I need to continue where I left off from Grisaia, I'm currently at the part where Amane starts acting as your older sister so... how long until the prologue is done?

>>8776417
The common rote is LONG. When you start seeing choiecs, you know it's ending. It has a lot of foreshadowing for the routes though.

>>8776429

Thanks for the heads up! so much for playing it's sequel soon oh well I'm enjoying it so far.

Oh hey, a trial for Demonion is out.

I'll wait for reviews before trying it.

It looks like & has a story that develop really well during the routes.
I'm getting hyped up

Eiyuu Senki is pretty fun and Himiko is a good heroine.
I hope I won't be tired of the gameplay too fast though

About how long is Kaminoyu?

>>8776860
I didn't play all the routes but it felt average length, 20-25 hours

>>8776870
Thanks.

>>8754196 here.
Just finished reading Genrin 1's novelisation. Guess I'll play Genrin 2 next.

Anyone knows where to find a walkthrough for Neutral Route B or if that actually exists (supposed to be the canon route)?
I found http://homepage2.nifty.com/aoba-ran/gen2ibe.html but it only list chaos and law as the possible route.

I hope akabesoft doesn't disappoint in &, personally still recovering from the akatsuki no goei series fragmented disaster.

AoG owns shut your mouth.

Anyway, damn the protagonist of ES is a pick your own name guy, that means not only will no one ever call him by his name, it means hes also not someone famous.

>>8777249
Neutral is the ending you'll get if you don't qualify for either chaos or law, and where most of the different heroine endings are. I think the Neutral B is where Luie doesn't choose a heroine.
There's a dungeon you're supposed to visit to get the law ending, just save before that and skip visiting it to get law and all the neutral variations easily. Or recruit the artificial gynoid character for Chaos boost that should lock you out of law.
Oh Ekuria why did you turn from such a badass villain to flustered maid in Verita

Tokyo Babel got a release date for June, yay.

>>8777714
Actually, now that I think about it do recruit that character since it's canon in Verita that Luie had her join the army.

I haven't been keeping up well with news recently due to being obscenely busy, I know it's due out in about a month, any news on 創刻のアテリアル?

I assume by now a demo is out somewhere, anybody played it and have any first impressions?

>>8778172
well as far as the trial went, the gameplay was fun, and the plot does have possibility to be good if it goes to direction that the trial hinted and Eushully can utulize its possibilities. trial atleast left positive impression to me so really looking foward to full release

Playing DRACU-RIOT! right now.
The setting is ridiculous but that's nothing unexpected, and I can see where the plot is going from miles away.
But I guess I can dig in one of the characters so I'll play at least a route.

Anyone tried 英雄＊戦姫 ?
I'm getting a good feeling about this one, but the fact that most of these eroge sucks is making me unsure.

>>8778195
Thanks, really glad to hear that. If nothing else, from past experience even if the plot falls through, Eushully makes some damn fun games. I'll need to grab the trial sometime soon and give it a whirl.

Was the kind of atmosphere of the game apparent from the trial? Eushully tends to make lots of villainous, to an extent at least, protagonists. 神採り　was the first in awhile that had a relatively all around good guy for protag. How about this one?

How much of &'s MC is voiced? Is it super partial or from different perspectives?

>>8778236
the kind of atmosphere the game will have wasn't really that apparent yet in the trial. the normal world had pretty light atmosphere to it but its apparent that theres something going behind the scene, and the other world had nicely creepy atmosphere to it. as for the protagonist, he seems to fall more on the good guy scale, although in preview CGs you can see him raping stuff, so there more to him than the trial lets to out, also because its said tha you can ally yourself with the angels/demons (which you don't actually meet yet in the trial as it ends probably just before you meet them for first time) so its given that he changes a bit somewhere along the line when he meets them.

>>8778172
>>8778271
Is this Megami Tensei the Eroge?

>>8778271
Thanks again. I'm getting excited for the release now. Here's hoping Eushully manages a good plot for it.

>>8778271
I would gladly take a chaotic neutral protagonist which can easily jump on either end of the alignment depending on your choices, Himegari was awesome in that regard.

>>8778310
well Shuuya is more neutral than Emilio, but hopefully there will be decent ammount of alignment possibilities here too there is apparently also the neutral option, makes me wonder exactly what kind of route choosing mechanism SnA will have. Will it be like Himegaris or maybe something like in VBs, and speaking of alignment choices and VB, why the fuck must VBF be released in the same damn day as SnA I will have hard time trying to decide between which one to play first, both being the two eroges I'm looking foward to most in this year so far

So I was looking through VERITA's HCG (for fap material) and I noticed what seems to be Serika fucking Loui (or rather Loui fucking Serika). wat. How the fuck?

So when can we expect torrents for 放課後☆エロゲー部?

>>8778474
Why would you want to play that? It looks so bad.

>>8778467
Check the eye color.

>>8778467
That's not Serika, that's Peterene.

>>8778484
Yeah, why would he want to play the new nukige by Moonstone Cherry.
Are you retarded or something.

>>8778501
He's a tripfag, didn't you notice ?

>>8778501
we have what looks like an eroge tough guy, no lowly porn or moe allowed

>>8778501
>>8778505
>>8778508
I think he hangs around at /vg/ so their behavioral patterns are slowly taking him over.

Lmao so who said they might nerf the 5 power specials. So ridiculous.

New thread: >>8778558

Well Eiyuu Senki seems to be a hit for me, I've been having quite a bit of fun so far.
The characters are nice and the gameplay is good and addictive.

>>8775239
She has no route. Enjoy.
