Can we please stop posting new threads early because of the stupid English-translated meme?
Kayden Mitchell
>english thread with ugly as fuck art lmao EOPS
Hudson Barnes
It's just old, man. That's from the Sagara Family, brought to you by the same brilliant geniuses who gave us Virgin Roster. Might as well be ancient by now.
Aiden Jackson
If Subahibi doesn't come out today I'm ending it.
Lincoln Kelly
God, I hate this thread so much.
Daniel King
I think I'm the retarded one, because I don't see what's wrong with the OP. Isn't it identical to the last one pretty much?
Charles Howard
then become a janitor and enforce board rules and watch as the thread becomes dead but also quality when all the /jp/ shitposters are behaving. or go find Ti9 and save us all.
Parker Lopez
This place is for all Japanese visual novels not just English-translated ones newfriend.
Daniel Scott
Reminder that this is the containment thread as it is the worst Japanese related general on Veeky Forums
Carter Gomez
I own Rance's 4 months old daughter!!
Samuel Scott
Are there Isekai VNs?
Nathan Ramirez
EOPs have gotten nothing but mediocre VNs for a while. July was a terrible month for them with all the shit that happened, and now uncensored Maitetsu and Baldr Sky will never happen since someone who somehow hates h-content more than Dovac is now in charge.
Just finished Umineko. Boy was that one hell of a ride.
Kayden Martinez
Always knew user was a bastard
Nathan Sanchez
This is an English-translated Japanese visual novel
Ian Cooper
It's not too late to learn Japanese, user.
Julian Russell
1. Rance Quest is quite clearly an RPG. You spend most the time level grinding in quests
2. It's not translated
3. It quite clearly belongs in the Alicesoft/Rance General instead.
Jordan Thomas
These graphics are pretty variable.

>A visual novel (ビジュアルノベル bijuaru noberu?), also known as a sound novel, is an interactive game,[1][2] featuring mostly static graphics, most often using anime-style art or occasionally live-action stills
Taken from wikipedia
Gabriel Hughes
>static graphics
I guess that answers the question about whether you have ever played Rance Quest.
Brayden James
The character sprites, CGs, and facial expressions by the text box are all clearly static, and it is an interactive game
Sure. This thread's patron saints are Witcher 3 and Planetscape, MMBN is closer than either of those.
Jeremiah Nelson
If the Witcher 3 and Planescape are already in English though and not translated from Japanese then shouldn't they belong in the english-only general?
William Rogers
When was the last time we had a thread that didn't start with 50 posts of pure cancer?
Jace Jones
He's got a point.
Adam Jenkins
>mfw EOPs have to look forward to a Sekai Project """"""""""""translation"""""""""""""" of Baldr Sky
Carson Turner
Don't disrespect Aroduc, he's our guy. He does justice to what he works on, even if it takes a lot of liberties.
Benjamin Nelson
Never. /vn/ has always been shit.
William Clark
speaking of Aroduc, how much time would I have to sink into Kamidori if I'm a slow player but still want to finish all the routes?
Easton Turner
To finish all the routes? Not long at all. To finish all of the various random side characters' stories, a decent while. NG+, basically all of the content you can't do in the first run, is something like 50% of the game's content. There's a batch of like 8 levels that are basically at the level cap.
Dominic Torres
well, shit. I have a completionist bug that's hard to shake, which is why I was putting off Kamidori after I finally finished my slog through Yumina.
Ian Morris
Just do it. I've played through Kamidori to near completetion 3 times now. My files keep getting nuked right when I'm near the end.
Jaxson Rivera
Kamidori is more fun than Yumina.
Also you wouldn't be missing much if you skipped the story.
Andrew Turner
I had an epiffany
Joshua Bell
A cat is fine too.
Carter Gomez
Could you not fuck with the OP? Retard.
Daniel Foster
>yumina >a slog Kill yourself, you tasteless pleb.
Lincoln Scott
Repeat this meme one more fucking time and I'll fucking end you.
Carter Russell
it just got tiresome doing the same thing after the third time, especially since I wasn't smart and didn't do the girl I didn't like first. it would've been a lot better if the battling wasn't overly formulaic, I feel like over half the skills put in the game are unnecessary and will never be used since there's only a few "kinds" of battles and they kind of force you into using certain setups. if it was a lot less constrained it would've been better and allowed for experimentation.
Elijah Howard
Fuck you, retard. It was never meant to be a meme until people started copying me.
Jonathan Richardson
Kirara had the best route by far, which was a bit of a shame. I wanted Aoi to be best girl, because she's voiced by Asami Imai.
Jack Ross
I didn't like Ai or her route so it was really painful that I didn't do it first, should've saved kirara for last. still, if the arcs didn't have so much overly repetitive and formulaic battling I could've stomached it better.
Evan Campbell
The gameplay was incredibly stale after the first playthrough. Counter, counter, hit with whatever, heartbeat. The fact that being 1 level below meant you did nothing or being 1 level above meant you couldn't cast shit because of the way the color system worked was horrible.
Kevin Edwards
Yeah, the battles were really annoying at times. Especially ones where you were forced to do multiple battles followed by a miniboss battle without having your move counts or health restored between battles were especially painful, like that Carrier one. That being said, Kirara's route was thrilling and Ai's route was very interesting. Yumina had a letdown of a route, desu.
William Rodriguez
Haha, friend. That is some anime tier shading and bloom to hide the lack of detail. Would you like to see my favorite tiltpost? I will post it if you want to see it! I also wonder why you're posting a VN that I can't read, nor want to. Have I recommended Ikikoi yet? I highly recommend it. I don't think a pseudo-JOP like yourself would enjoy it, though. Also, I would be remiss if I didn't dedicate the 54th post to Saber. Pic unrelated.
Oliver Rogers
To say nothing of the True ending. That was pure autism.
Landon Johnson
If you cram a few more memes into this post, it might be worthy of some (You)s
Jayden Baker
Unironically the last good week of threads was Post-AX where we stopped EOP/JOP, Ikikoi, etc. memeing and just took the time to come together in mutual hate.
Jaxson Perez
Holy fucking shit. I thought I had finished the damn game. I've beaten every route three times each, but never finished the Ordacle because it was so boring, so I never even knew there was a true ending. What happens in it?
Sebastian Jackson
Great thread.
Grayson Williams
Just download a complete save file and play it, words don't describe the level of facepalm I felt after reading it. The worst part of it is getting the damn level 10 skills so you can even do it, so at least the file will save you that grind
Nolan Turner
Yumika
Jackson Sanders
...
Carter Hernandez
Great post.
Aiden Gray
Huh? Does Ayumu knob Yumina's mother or something?
Easton Stewart
Yuminas parents come back, a new character who does nothing is introduced and everyone goes outside the universe to fight elder beings
It's not worth it in the fucking slightest. I wish I could go back and not play Yumina, it was just grinding with no pay off.
Michael Adams
Thanks, friend. Let's end it together if Subahibi isn't released today.
Michael Foster
These info dumps are torture famalam
Carson Turner
I wish, she just comes back
Joshua Russell
Turns out the ending in Yumina's route isn't quite how it went. The evil universe can't be stopped that easy, so they wind up taking control of their universe like Ayumu's mech and they fight the evil universe. Meanwhile, Ayumu's dad and Yumina's mom show up as ghosts who aren't actually dead and say they don't want to come back to life. On the flip side, Ayumu and the girls decide to stay in heaven with the universe mech thing and kill other universes for LULZ.
Grayson Perez
Witcher 3 is originally Polish so it's a translated VN and belongs here.
Daniel Watson
That sounds absolutely fucking retarded. Holy shit, why the fuck did they do that? Thank god I never saw it in-game because that would have left a really bad aftertaste.
Andrew Walker
You really should play it, his rundown doesn't do the stupidity justice.
Owen Hall
I may in the future do so regardless of how bad you guys describe it, because it's one of my favourite VNs, but at the moment I'm busy with CoBlo and Dark Souls 3.
Does he end up with none of them or does it become canonically Yumina? They better not have.
Austin Turner
There's a gag reel epilogue thing to advertise future projects from the company, it's a harem deal from what I remember.
Jack Collins
The SoL parts or common route of Yumina was great, too bad the heroine routes were shit.
Thomas Myers
Any indication of 18+ Labyrinth? Anywhere I can look for updates for when?
The more time passes the less I want to buy it
Easton Evans
Last update they were 35% done with the extra content. Prioritizing all ages version of Rakuen though.
Jaxson Jones
It's so disappointing no more of Eternal's games got localized.
Ryan Cox
All the Kamidori talk got me to reinstall it. I have the base game, 2.00, and appends 1 and 2, plus english patch 1.1. Is this the right versions?
Jaxon Long
Yup, that's it.
Grayson Cruz
>Prioritising all ages Sekai logic is heavily flawed.
Joshua Brown
Not just prioritising, but leading a crusade to eliminate H content from the english market.
James Johnson
When did you realize pirates are killing this medium?
Jaxson Ramirez
It's just western industry, so who cares.
Jacob Jackson
When I also realized that Dovac is the unsung hero of visual novels.
Zachary Powell
This medium wouldn't exist without piracy.
Ryan Richardson
Wrong, pirates are a symptom of the medium dying. Instead of cracking down on pirates, they should provide better alternatives to get content so that pirating isn't such a ready solution for people to get their fix.
Benjamin Price
>buying into the false narrative Good goy, turn your anger against the fans.
John Walker
Why can't JOPs just stick to their own containment board?
Ethan Peterson
We can see in this thread that pirates simply don't want to pay.
Ethan Rivera
Japanese industry sells worse than the western one, hence why developers are abandoning that sinking ship
Owen Morales
This.
Fat Gaben was right. Piracy is and always will be a service issue. I used to pirate a ton of games but nowadays I rarely ever pirate because you can get most of it very easily and at a cheap price so I have no need to pirate.
Nicholas Stewart
Why is Fata Morgana's OST so good?
Grayson Jackson
>attempt to load up Imouto Paradise >you need sdmeter to load this >look it up >drm
Well fuck, now how do I get past this?
Adam Peterson
Is that the new HD version with animated scenes?
Juan Green
>new HD
No idea, it's been up on eroge for like a year.
Wyatt Watson
Alright, I'll admit I'm having a good time. Yuzu is cute as fuck, I'm glad to finally be on her route. Can't wait for OHOHOHOH.
