Just finished Muv Luv Alternative Total Eclipse
SpoilerWell, they sure dropped the ball on this one. Yuuya was for sure an improvement over Takeru in most ways. Takeru got phased out in Alternative more and more as the story progressed. Yuuya stayed in the spotlight. Anyways, i felt after reading this that i had just wasted about 40 hours of my life. Half the story was just explanations and infodumps galore, getting to know the characters inbetween and liking most of them. Actually, only Yui's sometimes schizophrenic behavior rubbed me the wrong way, but i didn't dislike her. At a certain part in the story they reveal Yui is his sister and conveniantly he's been acting like the biggest donkan ever about her advances. Like Age thought we NEED romantic sub elements for the story to work, yet Yuuya didn't bite because it would be weird later when revealed most likely. He's had a GF before so him being this much of a donkan doesn't make much sense. Ironically there was nothing donkan about his interactions with Cryska, but that's alright, too bad the story did her bad. Anyway, later on in the story everything gets thrown to the wayside. Why did i suffer through all those infodumps? what purpose did they server? Absolutely no clue, but they ate a ton of time and served no purpose in the end other probably reaching a certain word count. Then came the final battle. Very atmospheric and engaging, yet they botched the final fight and basically skipped ahead. Enter cliffhanger.
Well, i can't say i was very impressed with this, but at least it's out of the way.
Now to finally start Muramasa

Umineko is close, but the last chapter ruins it

So thats why they delayed it. Well, they can keep it. Not even worth pirating

Do you need to >see< it happening? Because in White Album 2, although not explicit at all, it is heavily implied that the hero's best friend is very popular with women.
Many vn's have populsr friends. Its either that or clowns. They usually stay single though for some reason.

Yeah, you're right, I exaggerated a bit or my memory played a trick on me - we "only" had to break up with her, but yeah, it wasn't especially ugly - breakups happen sometimes.
(I played it 4 years ago, so my memories got a bit hazy)
But route structure in Lovers was truly awful - there in order to unlock side routes you really just had to completely ignore Rie so she would leave you. And those routes weren't even worth it
Indeed. You could break up that fake relationship. It was fake. Because she didn't treat MC well really. You could choose to ditch her and move on and that's where it branches out. Even if you do stick with her she won't be a good GF until waaay late in the route and the sequel.

Cant remember having to be a dick in Tsujidou though.

And i dont enter threads to read mean spirited and pointless posts. Ignore and move on if it doesnt interest you.
I for one agree with most of your choices. They're pretty good. Although Suki suki for me isn't funny at all. Wish it was, but the humor is too immature

I believe that both sides chose what's the best way to cope in regard of lack of update (Either by been too wary with thinking that the project is dead or by putting too much hope on this and shot down the opposing opinion), although obviously it would lead to some unhealthy debate because both sides has some reasonable excuse (To a degree) to think what they believe. In the end, it should be obvious that it's the best to be in the middle like I say earlier (ie wait and see until the release).
In the end thats all we can do. I personally think it might not see the light of day, but time will tell and shaun can argue and bicker until he pops a vein for all i care

No/yes. This scene is the hottest thing to ever be written down in human history. Imagine being this much of a cuck.
It's a Chinese powerpoint porno-game, jesus christ. I hope for your sake that you never accidentally buy a Purplesoft title.
How can it be hot if its a chinese powerpoint porno-game? I mean it's just drawings. Imagine finding that hot. Better seek medical aid.. Right?

That is fair. You like what you like and hate what you hate. I prefer vanilla in my eroge too given the choice. I kind of enjoyed kinkoi as a whole, but some parts of it irked me. Sylvie and all the backstories felt like she was more into Ria than protagonist all the way through and Elle seemed to be into Sylvie also but to a lesser degree and not really problematic. Reina's route to me was the best. Didnt read Akane, but Ria was also good.. in a way.

That duo is broken up. One left in a fit of rage for some reason and the other is unhealthily obsessed with real girls pretending to be anime girls while screaming and yelling.
-
What is this with being high? Yes they were kind of high, but it's not like they were smoking or in other way intentionally trying to get high. But i get what you mean. Reina was the least off putting threesomes in the vn imo. I'm on the other side with this. A threesome the first time with no obligations to one another is way more realistic. Sylvies just throwing mina or whatever at you was way more off putting. And Elle also irked me, but i don't remember the details anymore. Think it was something like Elle being way more into Sylvie than MC during the scene or something.

And Silvz is dealing with people having different opinions by voicing an opinion, so what is your point?

I've been following the whole "controversy" on Reddit and I honestly don't see the problem. Other companies have "censored" their games to release on Steam - and I use quotation marks because many have pointed out that Cyanotype's sex scenes were NOT written by the author of the game and were taken out because the company AND said author decided to. And instead of just removing them and done, they actually wrote more content, drew new CGs and added a whole chunck of new content. The debate around the age/clothing of one of the characters is another that I don't follow - why do people care so much about having a heroine that is a child having sex with a teacher to the point of prefering to have that instead of a more mature student with THE EXACT SAME PLOT? I mean, it's literally the same thing but with way less controversy. And, again, it was done by the author who wrote the game and the company who developed it, which pretty much denies the whole "the author's original intention" that people seemed to be using a lot to attack the game and Laplacian.
The only "controversy" in this situation was that twitter account mocking those who were complaining - that I understand why it drove some people mad.
It's funny because before the whole fuss surrounding the VN I didn't even know it was a thing. Now, I'm pretty interested in buying and playing it.
You dont have to understand anything. Just deal with people having other opinions. I'm sure you have lots of "shit" opinions people would start a rambling post over too.

Classic tsundere can be good if done well, terrible if done... not well. Sometimes the transformation from tsun to dere is just not very believable at all and too quick and sudden.

Saya no uta is an obvious recommendation
-
Might be tired of writing the same stories over and over with small differences, yet too afraid of making something original in case people don't find it interesting.
-
The difference is very apparent if you read them in order. I recommend you do it as it's awesome in many ways.

Generally speaking, WWII is a huge sore spot with the Japanese. Mostly, they try to pretend it never happened.
Because of their loss no doubt

A story isn't sacrificed because it has great art. Story is written by one person or a team who only focuses on story and other teams are working on their fields. Where do you even get it from that the story takes a hit cause they focused on the art? :mindismostcertainlyblown:
