who thinks like that? some 15 year old wanabe hero virgin?
Nope. It was one of the people my middle school had hired to teach us "self-defense". They were terrible. Then again, so was my middle school, so...makes sense. I just tuned them out, then learned how to open canned whoopass at my karate lessons after school. Ah, memories.
Yeah, she could be cute, but that pretty much never happens. She sometimes says something funny, but that's about it. I really don't like how everyone just lets her get away with her insufferable personality and for some reason do everything possible for her, it just doesn't make sense... there are no redeeming qualities. :/
How are you liking Asuho's route? I was pretty unimpressed with that one, though it was still much better than Aoi's at the very least. And her character is likeable, at least, maybe save for the constant screaming.
Yeah. If someone repeatedly told me, with obvious malice, to go jump of a bridge, even if they had emotional problems, I wouldn't want to be around them. That's just not something I would want to, or need to, deal with.
I like Asuho's character a lot. She has a very nice personality, like you said. I gotta admit, though, she is quite loud. I guess I like her character because I like cheery, happy girls in real life. Pretty much the same reason why I don't really like Aoi.

if someone were to attack me with that thing, no matter what gender or age that person is i would knock the hell out of him/her and call the police
^^^
I was actually told that if a girl was trying to stab me, it was my duty as a man to disarm her, no matter how worked up or homicidal she was. Under no circumstances was I to hit her, even if it was self-defense and my life depended on me defending myself. I promptly stopped listening because I knew how ridiculously stupid that was.
I'm having a hard time with Aoi's route. She's being incredibly annoying and there's pretty much nothing interesting happening.... why won't this end already. ;_;
I'm on Asuho's route myself, but yeah, I'm not looking forward to doing her route. Her personality is quite unattractive. She can be cute, but damn, she is mean.

^Don't listen to Zeno! Heaven's Feel is great and should absolutely not be skipped. And theres not that much weird stuff in it. If you're going to skip it you might as well skip F/SN entirerly since its not complete without it.
I didn't mean that they should skip it entirely, just not play it until they're feeling up to the fairly depressing content in it. Plus...
dem tentacles and leeches be messed up
, and some parts in it were very disturbing, at least they were for me. The other two routes are nothing like Heaven's Feel in that sense; they were much more lighthearted.
-
Really? Wow. And I thought Fate/stay night was long. Thanks for the information about the common route, that makes things much easier.
-
I thought I should ask, since I've been pretty much playing at all day for two days, as I'm home sick, and I don't feel like I've made that much progress on Asuho's route. Currently, I'm right at the part where
Setsuna is attacking Mare with her naginata at the lookout, and You and Chinami are going for a walk after visiting their mom's grave.
Is that fairly close to the end?
And about how long are the other routes compared to Asuho's? I thought that I should ask, since I'm not quite sure when I'll be able to get through the game if they're all that long. I don't think I'll be able to power through them like I am right now.
-
It seems to me that levelling the princess is the whole point of the game, whatever story you get based on your choices is kind of secondary.
That...that sounds a little dumb...
Then again, I'm used to the VNs I read focusing on plot and character development, not gameplay.
-
Ahhh. Discos here pretty much means places that play disco music lol Seeing as disco is pretty much dead here (and I know Eurodisco is still kicking), clubs don't play house, at least not traditional house. They play stuff from artists like Calvin Harris and Swedish House Mafia and Martin Solveig, which I guess is technically progressive house. I tend to think of traditional house music as stuff by Modjo, Daft Punk's earlier work, and Cassius, pretty much 90s house music. I like both traditional and progressive house, but I think of the 90s stuff first whenever anyone mentions house.
-
Glad I wasn't too far off with Sengoku Rance. I've never played it (it's a little too rape-y for me), so I was just going off on what other people told me about it.
If you're looking for a roguelike, head to Steam. They have a crap ton of them, since they're getting pretty popular again. If you want to be technical about it, they're roguelike-like, or rogue-lites, since they're not exactly like Rogue, but they're still good. I don't think that there are many decent eroge roguelikes out there.
-
Looks like I accidentally necro'd this thread by making a new one...it merged somehow O.O
House is nice at the disco, but i can't listen to it on a daily basis
I forgot that European countries still have discos. After the 70s they pretty much went belly up in the US. I guess you could say clubs replaced them, but they don't play the same types of music, at least I don't think they do. If you want to listen to club/house music, at least where I live, you pretty much have to go to a live concert.
Types of music i like are in the signature. I also like some american rap and hip-hop, and i like house as well. I can listen to a lot of music if i'm in a good mood.
The only type of rap that I can stand is the stuff by Macklemore : /

Well, seeing as I live in California, the coldest it's been all winter is ~40°. We've barely had any rain, unfortunately, and it's been almost like a second summer for us, at least when it wasn't around 40°. We're pretty spoiled in California, where I live especially. We live by the coast, so if the temperature goes past or below 70° we all start complaining.
-
There are plenty actually. But they don't get nearly as much coverage or popularity.
And a lot of them end up being in other platforms instead of full PC releases. And overall just lack in many many aspects
http://vndb.org/v/all?q=;fil=tagspoil-0.olang-en;o=d;s=rating
According to this there are 1051 english VNs
Halfway through the first page the rating is already 6/10 so you can clearly see they're not popular although fairly large in quantity.
Yeah, I've seen a few for the DS and 3DS (apparently Phoenix Wright is classified as a VN), but that makes a little sense, seeing as how Nintendo is fully aware of their customers' appreciation of Japanese culture and games.
Wow, the ratings sure nose-dived fast. I guess that's why I never heard of a lot of them.
-
My music preferences are pretty much all over. I like house, disco, EDM (electronic dance music), 50s jazz and swing, big band music, and rock. I also like a lot of early 90s songs...they remind me of my childhood, and have a lot of sweet house roots :3
Any fellow house or EDM fans here? Or am I the only one?
EDIT: Since my thread merged with this one, I'll elaborate a little. My favorite band is Daft Punk. I almost have all of their albums on iTunes. I'm getting pretty into Madeon, and I was into Deadmau5 for a while, too.

Speaking of rogue like do any eroge rogue likes exist? I'm curious to see what it is if it exists
I haven't seen one. From what I've heard, Sengoku Rance has permadeath for side characters that die, but I don't think Rance himself can die. I googled "eroge roguelikes" and pretty much came up with nothing besides...this...thing... But yeah, I don't think that one's been made yet, or at least has gotten popular enough to get a result in the first few pages of a Google search.
From the roguelikes that I've seen, most don't have sexual content because they want to either get popular enough for a wide audience to play (e.g. Steam roguelikes) and having sexual content would make that harder, or they just don't have it because it doesn't add to the gameplay.
-
Just wondering, since the few VNs that I know are originally written in English are Katawa Shoujo and Starswirl Academy (and SSA isn't even out yet). I know that VNs were pretty much a Japanese thing, and that they're still not that popular in western countries, but you'd think that there would be a few more out by now. It's probably because of my recent introduction to VNs that I don't know that many, but still, I haven't heard of more than a handful. Are they usually any good, or is KS a rarity in its high quality?
-
How ya doin', Shaward? Glad you made the decision to stop being a lurker and join the site! One of the best decisions I've made.
I see ya read Hoshizora no Memoria. Who was your favorite heroine? And, seeing as you haven't read it yet, you might want to check out Katawa Shoujo. It's without a doubt one of the better VNs I've read, and a good VN for noobs; that was my first VN.
-
Welcome back! I think I actually remember you from when we both joined; pretty sure it was around the same time. As a funny coincidence, I also took a hiatus from Fuwanovel, but came back a few days ago. The coincidence has been doubled!
-
Hmmm...I can't put a finger on what my hand smells like...
-
I'd recommend Fate/Stay Night
^ This, but don't do Heaven's Feel unless you're up for some messed-up stuff.
-
Wow, I can't believe I forgot about this. Also from Hoshizora no Memoria, I cracked up every time Okaizumi went into his berserker rage and screamed "SHIIIIIT!". The first time it happened I almost fell out of my chair because it was so loud.
-
I really liked the fighting music in Fate/stay night. There were enough songs for the fighting scenes that they didn't get boring, and they really made the fights seem more epic. I especially liked http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTcPaBt_pFA. I actually liked that it looped; I listened to it for about ten minutes straight lol
-
Sad thing is... I've played so many VNs that I can't remember any specific funny scenes. I can remember that Shiranui in Evolimit is like one long running joke when he isn't being serious, and I remember most of the Key games being pretty funny... but if you asked me to remember a single funny moment? Sorry, no dice.
No problem. I had forgotten about the terrifying Emi Face of Weirdness already, and that was only 2 VNs ago.
-
Currently playing Kanon and it's pretty moving if you ask me, now I can see why Key is so popular. You should check it out if you want a good nakige.
As a happy coincidence, I already have it downloaded :3 I checked out the list of top 50 VNs someone here posted, and thought it looked interesting. Thanks for the suggestion, though! It might be a while until I get to it, since I have around 10 VNs to read, not including the Muv-Luvs :/
-
Bear in mind I'm just speaking for myself at this point. I have some other things I'd love to do first.
Ahhhh. I thought that you were speaking for the whole of Zap Apple. Well, I hope that you guys will keep working together, but you should definitely put what you want before what some random people on the internet want
-
Hehe... Straight...
Dem puns...it hurts...
I'd say Emi's "special sex" scene
I don't know if I can post part of the image.
But her face was so hilarious.
I think this is still fine
Oh yeah! That was hilarious! I forgot about that. Such a weird face.
What are you playing?

What about it specifically didn't you like? If it makes you feel any better, there's a patch that adds onto that route: POSSIBLY CANON SPOILERS!!!
