If Kunagi had Rouga's baby, would she give birth to a human or a wolf baby?

If her ancestor is anything to go by, it would probably end up like Kunagi.

It would be a wolf baby, but only if it was Rouga's first few menstrual cycles and he carried the wolf gene.

I take it from the comments saying that Alicesoft got out of their funk after 2012 or 2014 and that we should be called Alicesoft/Evenicle, that Evenicle was a fairly good game. Would you guys consider it better than Rance VI or Sengoku Rance?

No. I would consider it on around IX's level personally.

Where does Rance IX fall on your spectrum?

Yes much better. Although purely from a gameplay perspective nothing beats Sengoku.

Between Magnum and 03, I suppose. There's a fair bit of a gap from those to 01 and Vanilla Quest, though. I'd still take VI, Sengoku and KR over them all.

imo Evenicle was better than VI in general and better than both in ero.

Anyone has the Rance 03 full cover image in high resolution?

No, but it's still the best non-Rance Alicesoft game aside from maybe TT2.

Story wise I think it would lose to Rance IX, VI and 03, but beat the rest. Gameplay wise it beats all Rance games to me, but lose to Blade Briders.

CG wise, while I like it I'm not that fond of that artist work, prefer most other newer Alicesoft games over it on that.

Below VI and Sengoku. Better than any other Rance game bar KR.

Is the insect ruins girl worth going back and finding?

Isn't it obligatory?

It's more of you will go back and find her eventually.

I read that as incest girl for a second, wasn't sure which one you were talking about. But Kaloria is mandatory; you'll get her with plot.

Have any worthwhile eroge titles been released to the English speaking world in 2017 yet?

You should ask that on /hgg/ or /jp/.

She's top five units in the game but joins automatically later

No

...

No

Is it ever mentioned what species does Alefgard belong to?
Always assumed that he was just an unique mutation of some insect.

A catman. He's probably an insect or a Guy Monster like pic related.

Caterpillar

Thanks.

What the fuck is this shit man... They build up Kou to be an adorable little thing that not even Rance wants to harm, make me feeling happy and fluffy inside eveytime she appears on screen, all the fun an light hearted rape until it's Kou turn. Fucking japanese, I have been so mad I can't even.

I'm so mad I have to post this again.

...

TADA was saddened by that plot twist as well.

reminder that Kou has self defense level 2 so probably wanted it

My ratings of the gameplay games that I have played

Tier 1 - Kichikuou, VI, Sengoku
Tier 2 - TT II, Daiakuji, Evenicle
Tier 3 - Daibanchou, Magnum, 03
Tier 4 - Mamatoto, Pastel Chime II, Pastel Chime III, Rance Quest (Vanilla), Rance 01, Blade Briders
Tier 5 - Toushin, Toshi Rance III, Rance IV, Pastel Chime, Daiteikoku
Tier 6 - Rance 2
Tier 7 - Rance I, Rance 4.1 and 4.2, Rance 5D

That's a bit harsh on 5D and generous to RQ to be in the same tier as Mamatoto and Blade Briders.

Not him, but I haven't heard anyone say anything good about Blade Briders. Love the art though. As for Rance 5D, I agree with you that it was a short fun game. Even S!T!B! would only have finished in Tier 6 for me.

That's a bit harsh on I, 4.1 and 4.2 to put them in the same tier as 5D

>The first two Dai Games

I liked Blade Briders. Its fun to play its just nothing special.

vndb.org/v/all?q=&fil=&rfil=type-complete.date_after-20170101.date_before-20170222.released-1.lang-en

>Blade Briders

I saw the animated OVA hentai for it. It was nothing special but that beaming like cock moment was funny.

>Daibanchou OP

All the OVAs are shit

the original Rance OVA is a work of art.

Daiakuji OVA was next level of badass, I wouldn't be uploading it's pages on the wiki if I didn't find it so enjoyable, especially for a guy like me who can't even read moon to play the original game, which is even better.

How to trigger Rizna event that reward with Absolute Anti-magic?

I have cleared the Test Dungeon, got the 100 mark medal, saw all the event about Rizna condition and end with H option change to having a passionate night with Rizna, losing the option to do her in the butt, getting her S rank weapon and currently in post-game mode.

is she 30 FR?

What makes TT2 that much better than Rance III or IV?

Its basically better in every way other than not having characters I am already attached to from other games.

TT II is incredibly well done JRPG with good setting and plot and actual consequences for decisions.

Is image posting down for everyone?

fuck, yep

not him but to me, Rance III and IV often felt like comedies at times, cheap comedies that have that campy feeling early Rance games have. Of course there is a charm to that, and I do enjoy that trademark humor, but I also think it diminishes the overall quality or grandeur of the games. It's hard to take fighting the final boss seriously when Rance is remarking how hot she is, it's hard to feel dramatic tension when Rance is constantly deflating it. I like Rance as a character, he's great at what he does, but creating a compelling story or pulling you into the world is not what he does. He's the guy that says what we're all thinking, the guy who challenges norms and sometimes almost breaks the fourth wall in his boldness. But sometimes you don't want that, and sometimes having a protag like that makes it very difficult to make a "serious" game, basically. So I think TT2 has that over Rance III and IV in that Seed is a serious protagonist.

Will Rance fuck Rona?

Why is Daiakuji better than Daibanchou?

Shizuka happily sucked Rance's cock.

I would too desu

Of course. It's her favourite past time

Evenicle is better than 6 in fap and gameplay. Worse than Sengoku in gameplay but not fap. Around IX's level in gameplay but I fapped more to IX.

Evenicle should of had a pregger end. Since it has marriages I feel the protag doesnt get as much freedom as rance. And I have a preg fetish

>Two other games by the Evenicle and Rance 03 teams (New IPs)
So they really cant announce these until Rance and Beat Game come out?

They can announce them whenever

New Alicesoft 4koma

>preg fetish

Oyako Rankan is the game for you then.

They're both similar but, Daiakuji was the first game that started it all, it has a fun and intriguing game play system, the soundtrack is awesome, and the characters are a sight to behold. Only people who can read moon can play it though, unlike Daibanchou.

Did MG announce what alicesoft games they will do next yet?

No

What games do you want to see them do next?

>61 clearable commanders not counting locked ones
>only 26 spaces
Really makes me upset.

Evenicle is better.

Fuck, Pastel is useless. All you had to do was lift one curse. Rance just wanted to save Sill all this time and you couldn't even do that. Who gives a shit about all these other random girls Sill is all that ever mattered.

Sill is boring.

>just wanted to save Sill all this time
>bummed around for months before Copandon forced him to get a job
>decides to rape and leave the person he thinks can uncurse her.

>thinking Sill matters

That random girl has a beautiful daughter with Rance while Sill does not. Get fucked Sillfag.
I don't hate Sill but recently Sillfags are really annoying.

>Who gives a shit about all these other random girls
Everyone does. Only a few rare care about Sill above all.

To be fair its one guy with that OTP stuff. I don't think he is Pastel is useless bully moe. And never going to be strong enough to beat the Demon King's magic.

At least Sill isn't suffering.

To be honest Sill's absences in IX makes the game and Rance's relationships better.

You'll understand why she isn't around for IX.

Devil Daigo > Rouga

Jesus christ my fucking ears. That was so loud.

>implying X won't end with Rance running out on everyone with Sill and leaving everything ambiguous so people can believe whatever they want.

That's pretty much 0% chance of happening.

When KR was made that was the logical ending. Rance has too many other relationships now for that and it would infuriate the fans.

The ambiguity will be in fated girls where they will leave a lot unrevealed so people can believe their favorites are fated.

In VI, I'm up to the part where you have to activate the Maginot Line defenses to get the fiends out of Zeth. Is there any resolution with Feliss and Dark Rance? I saved her in the Disposal Dungeon.

Also, how much is left in the game?

> resolution
Bottomless hole, look for despair.

They're not going to have Rance settle down, and there's only one way that him going off on another random adventure goes. And that's solo with Sill as if it was going to set up another game that they'll (probably) never make.

Anything else would be brave and close themselves off from future possibilities way too hard. Because lets be honest, if they notice none of their other series sell nearly as well as Rance, they're not going to leave it lying around.

The plot has already closed up future possibilities.

And shit with games like KR and remakes they can just do remakes and non canon games anyway.

Rance living in Rance castle with all the girls works as an ending anyway and hardly closes off the plot - killing Kayblis and defeating Ludo and sorting out Miki's demon kin issue is what will close the plot.

in any case Kanami would follow Rance as well in this hypothetical end of yours.

That was the resolution for Feliss in that game

Why is an ending where Rance heads off with Sill to go an adventure (to where and why?) open up a sequel anymore than Rance goes back to Rance castle to live with his girls.
By that logic there can't be a Rance X because after Rance IX, Rance went back to his castle to live with his girls.

Rance X is going to be the final canon game of the series. That is established and planned.

ofc that's what's gonna close up what's currently going on.

But a writer worth half a shit can easily open it back up and/or shove in something new easily. Plus it's always a strong literary move to end on the same note that you began and have him just go take some mundane job at some guild.

Specifically because it was planned and it was a known thing, that removes any idea of ambiguity because you know something is going to cause him to go on at least 1 more adventure. the door doesn't close by having him go "live happily ever after" so to speak.

I just can't believe that a company will willingly close up anything nearly this iconic so I expect them to leave the door open somehow.

Why would they want a literary movie when they could just have Rance fucking girls.

In the end it is a porn series.

A Sill only end ignores everything they set up in Quest and IX. Its no longer compatible.

Kayblis will be killed in X. Ludo will be dealth with in some way. Rance will have had a game in every single country. They can't really have Rance games after X because lets face it, those small adventures games like 4.x were pretty mediocre and can't carry Alicesoft.

Ending the canon series doesn't mean they can't make more Rance games anyway. 04 is inevitable. They can remake KR if they want. They can do more spinoffs and alternative routes. They can do Rance 0. They can do the gap year. In five years time, Rance VI will be 18 years old so they can even do a Rance 06.

>When KR was made that was the logical ending.
I haven't played KR and I thought he was referring to the 5d ending. Before reading your post my guess would've been that it wouldn't be the logical ending for him to abadon everything in KR for Sill.
