Goldeneye.

If you want something "darker," try Final Fantasy Tactics, Tactics Ogre and Vagrant Story. Valkyrie Profile, Xenogears and Suikoden II/III/V would also be good choices. You should be able to emulate all of them. Older stuff, Terranigma is not exactly dark, but it has a pretty interesting premise (plus it's a great action RPG.) Oh, and FFXII is absolutely NOT about saving the world with the power of friendship, but there's a remaster incoming so I'd wait.

This one: https://vndb.org/v1484

Another vote for Homeless Joshi Gakusei. It's hilarious, so damn over the top.

Really? Delita's the simplest character in the game. The original translation was pretty bad, granted, but War of the Lions reads just fine.

Best story? Tactics, by far. As a bonus, it also has the best gameplay!

You want to know how bad it is? Just watch this video (no spoilers, btw) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbdVfJGRbfw

It's very simple, really. The premise, it's the ultimate white knight simulator. Think about it, "you" are the ultimate delta special forces ex-secret agent sarcastic badass marine, a dude that weights 120 pounds wet and has the same muscle mass as your average pro-ana supporter but can take out the entire UFC roster if need be, a mary sue if there ever was one, who comes to a school... that only has girls. And they all want the D, or will want the D (since it's that kind of game, you KNOW that they will want the D, you are supposed to know) So far so good. Except that you find out that the girls are damaged. They have "issues," they're complicated. But you? Oh, you can fix them. And they will want your D in the process. Some of them might even call you daddy. Of course, you have to save them, but you'll be a badass about it, sometimes to ridiculous extremes, to a point where the MC's actions defy logic and human rights themselves. But that's okay, because he's a badass former ranger 00 agent licensed to kick ass who's never wrong, so everything will be fine in the end. It's about wish fulfillment, in the end. It's designed to push an otaku's romantic buttons with surgical precision, and I really admire the writers for it. Oh, and the common route drags like fucking hell, but Angelic Howl is really good. And Makina's bad ending is gold.

Well, there is kinda of an in-game reason for leaving it as it is.

Hanachirasu. You literally play as the bad guy. Kikokugai's MC isn't evil, but he's pretty dark.

Pretty useful list. Just one thing, Alternative Projects is going to translate Chronicles 02's sidestory. Dunno when, but we will... eventually.

Who are you? We're Alternative Projects, translating Muv-Luv related VNs. We have released translations for Muv-Luv Alternative Chronicles 01 and The Day After 02 in the past two years. We are opening recruitment to get more help as we have a larger line-up of projects we are looking to work on next. What are you looking for? TLCs: Able to understand Japanese fluently, and check the original meaning against the translated lines for any lost content. If you are able to suggest edits and line corrections to make it read better that'll be a bonus. Editors: Able to work sentences into a coherent story, correct grammar and tenses, and check the flow of the story from line to line. Some knowledge of the Muv-Luv Unlimited/Alternative universe is necessary, so that you know what you are getting into. Knowledge of military workings and science-fiction is preferable. Hackers/Programmers: Able to help convert text files with Japanese and English text to excel and back, keeping the text format the same. Will need to be compatible with Afhook tool, so if you have some knowledge of the tool that would be preferable. If you want to help us, please write us an e-mail, [email protected] Something that we really care about is consistency. We are looking for people who are willing to commit to the project in the long run without pulling out halfway through. That said, we do understand that this is a hobby and that IRL issues will always come first. We appreciate open communication on issues and concerns in the team. Current projects: Adoration (ML Chronicles 02's sidestory, currently in progress) Our planned project line-up: ML Chronicles 03 and 04, Haruko Maniax, Ayu Mayu Alternative, Total Eclipse, Schwarzemarken (VN and LN). Note: Projects will be confirmed once we have the personnel.

Try deleting the pkg file and copying it again. That should work.

I just skipped it... I don't think you need to win to get to any of the translated endings.

Another vote for the Sono Hanabira series.

Making it Xbox one exclusive was a masterful act of trolling.

Emiya Shirou. Jesus Christ, he was such a moron.

Didn't they do that with Yu-no, or was it a different console?

Eh, I'm not Gabgrave lol. I'm just the editor. And second one is coming soon, and he'll be working on the third and fourth, just after he's done translating parts of Schwarzersmarken vol 1.

No, Sumika actually lost her looping powers because they fucked. Kasumi says so at the end:

You only need to play Unlimited, not extra. And unlimited is pretty short. Yes, you can still go in blind and only play MLA, since everything you need to know will be explained like, 10 minutes in, but it's still better if you play unlimited. Think of it as the introductory chapters to MLA.

A good reason? Moon and Terra. Worth struggling through Chihaya and Shizuru's shitty, shitty routes.

Don't do it. Skip Extra if you have to, but unlimited is a must.

For me, it was in Muv Luv Alternative, the death of
