    Would you rather...?

    1) Even if I think I could manage without internet, no network at all means no phone network wired or not. That would be more cumbersome than having to use a stereo for playing sound and collecting records.

     

    To get to school/work and back:

     

    1. Taking the overcrowded buss, meaning you have to stand in 40 min on motorway/freeway.

    2. Taking the slow train that stops at every village, takes 1h but you get a seat.

    Hey forums.

    Welcome to the forum, I wish I had more time reading VNs (well I'm compensating on vacations).

     

    Good to see one more member (me included) reading newer VNs in Japanese, I took the freedom to look at your vndb.

    What are the differences between visual novel, eroge, gal game, and a dating sim?

    I don't think I'd call any anime that isn't hentai as ero-anime, no question.

    But there are animes that are considered ecchi and that doesn't include all romance titles. If you can put that distinction based on content into visual novels you get my distinction between a visual novel that are also eroge, and a visual novel that isn't.

     

    These titles that are both visual novels and eroge, I usually refer as visual novels, but I won't exclude them from eroges, because I measure them in different ways. 

     

    For me what makes a visual novel a visual novel is not the content, but the medium, story (in NVL or text box) with choices. What makes an eroge is the content.

    Warmly welcome to the forum!

    A fan translator is like a hero here (at least for me), because they make the biggest contribution to spread our beloved VNs. 

    I know how hard it is to translate from Japanese.

    What are the differences between visual novel, eroge, gal game, and a dating sim?

    I instinctively make these definitions:

    Visual novel: Story game with illustrations either in NVL or textbox style.

    Eroge: Game with focus on erotic content or at least sexual appeal.

    Dating sim: A game where you boast your stats to get the reward, a girl/boy.

    So an eroge is a quite wide definition incorporating most VN and dating sims. I don't know of a VN that'd also count as a dating sim, and I don't know of a dating sim that's also not an eroge.
