    Yoshi reacted to alpacaman in any good kinetic novels with English translation or release?   
    This is the one to read inbetween two longer titles, as it takes only about 120 hours to finish.

    Yoshi reacted to Akshay in What snacks do you like to eat while reading a VN?   
    I tried auto mode while i snack but i always end up going back to the push-to-continue model because I seem to require a variable amount of time for every line. Also some VNs auto mode cant be sped up, so after reading a line i'll be waiting for a while till it proceeds.

    I sometimes drink hot tea, but I drink mostly water when im reading. I also take a break, when I'm eating. I get easily distracted, so I like to be able to focus while I'm reading. The same goes when I'm reading books and mangas.

    Yoshi got a reaction from Limerence_ in Heya, everyone~   
    Hey there Fuwa-community!
    I am Youssef (most ppl irl call me Yoshi), currently living in germany.
    I'm still a student and not quite a VN-veteran yet, but I'm working on it. I've read about 30 VN at this point (favorites being "Rewrite, Little Busters!, the 3 Grisaia-games and Aiyoku no Eustia) and watched quite a bit of anime (favorites being Guilty Crown, Charlotte and Angel Beats!) as well. I enjoy JRPGs like the "Tales of..."-series and most anime-related content in general.
    I'd be happy to talk about anything of the above, share my opinion and get to know your opinion(s) on the topic (as there's barely anyone I can talk to about those topics ).
    Ahh and I also play League, if... well I doubt it matters here at all. xD
    But anyways, enough about me and since I can't seem to find any other solutions, let's end this with one of the most cliche phrases I know of:
    I really hope to get along with you all!

    Yoshi got a reaction from Limerence_ in Rewrite: Boring, Lazy, Mediocre   
    Welp... I didn't plan to outright do this on my first day in the forums, but hey: I just HAD to reply to this topic.
    Rewrite was legitimately the first VN I've ever read. I really wasn't that used to reading fluent, english text yet and I also wasn't used to the general concept of VN at all.
    Oddly enough, I finished Rewrite within less than a month, completing all routes (except the hidden, bonus route).
    In hindsight I had the time of my life. I often hear people talk about Rewrite's common route being way too long. And I might have to agree, because many people make valid points on this argument.
    HOWEVER, It didn't feel that way to me at all when reading Rewrite for the first time. I laughed at the hilarious comedy, all the stupid stuff Kotarou does with the occult club and other characters. Nothing they did was completely meaningless to the plot, because these "useless" scenes were meant to deepen the relationship between multiple characters as well as give you a chance to get to really like them. In short: It gave life to the main heroines.
    While I have to admit that other VN have better art, I don't think the same goes for the music. I can't count the times I at least teared up when hearing "Koibumi"/"To you who never lies" even years later. Proof, that the story really touched me (; I will always remember you Shizuru ).
    While I definitely can't agree with your opinion, I can accept that you find Rewrite lacking in some departments (I will refrain from mentioning the "Days"-series at this point) as the common route can feel to long and some routes have parts that can be considered as illogical.
    It still stays a really good VN for me though, because I am willing to overlook potential faults the game has as Rewrite has many aspects, that were executed brilliantly. (Rewrite being the reason I even got into the VN-scene.)
    Lastly, PLEASE NOTE, that this is just my opinion about Rewrite and wasn't intended to offend anyone. If you have anything you'd like to say about the VN, I'll be glad to listen. It's always a good thing to get to know other's opinions on a title you like.

    Yeah, I knew it was for one of the consoles, I wasn't sure which one I don't have a PSP anymore, I am not really a console gamer so I didn't need it. I am not even a heavy PC gamer considering that I mostly play casual games and visual novels ...
    Symphonia is the first Tales game I am playing and it got me pretty hooked on I mean, the story itself so far isn't very good but man, I like the combat system! It isn't turn-based like in some other games, I like this real-time approach and I have heard that Zestiria is even better since it's in 3D, but I am not going to play it until I finish Symphonia (right now I am still on the first map, I have seen the game features two big maps xD) ... I like it so far, it's definitively a good experience ...

    If you don't like Rewrite, that's fine, I respect that. However, comparing it to Summer Days is pretty much like a cardinal sin here because the School Days series are rather infamously known by almost all anime fans for obvious reasons. That, and the fact that Summer Days was made by an entirely different company completely unrelated to Key/Visual Arts.
