    Yandere

    Seconding School Days. Princess X also has a Yandere route. While it may be fulfilling to romance a Yandere character, Yandere bad ends are almost certainly brutal. If you skip the bad ends you should be fine on most blood/gore etc.

    Yeah, but staying for the bad ends is important since you get to see that bastard get what's coming to him. The piece of shit that he is.

     

    If you do end up playing Crimson Gray they just released a bit of a sequel/companion to it from the perspective of the yandere which I found to be really interesting. It is a shame that it is woefully short though.

    What are you playing?

    Sigh. Just got to the R18 scene of Muv-Luv Alternative...

    Sigh. Sigh. Should really have stuck with the All-Ages version. This is just so damn stupid.

    I mean, I've seen my share of hentai, so I'm not squeamish or anything, but it does break the immersion. Makes it all feel like one big parody.

    You know, if I didn't know any better, I would've thought Nasu was the one who wrote this, given how Heaven's Feel turned out. Guess the rumor that many Japanese VN writers are closet perverts isn't that far from the truth.

    Personally, I hate censorship for the most parts, but in some cases, I would actually favor the All-Ages version when the sexual parts don't add anything to the story (Key's VNs like Clannad comes to mind), or when they even detract from the story. This is definitely one of those cases.

    I tried tellin' cats that waiting for the 18 patch was a bad idea but they never listened to me. Yeah I found it really weird and off putting as well.

    And yeah I wish the characters had been a bit better initially especially design wise. I ended up really loving the cast that joins the team later in Alternative and I wished that they had been the main girls. I did like Meiya quite a bit.

     

    I played Corpse Party for the first time recently and while I enjoyed my experience I think it is certainly one of those games I would have liked more had I played it when I was younger. A lot of the horror stuff just didn't click with me and walking through all the samey rooms and hallways got old after a while. I also really didn't like that guyz younger sister. For one thing she is supposed to be in Middle School yet they have her talking like she's in kindergarten or elementary school. Middle School girls do not talk like that unless she has some developmental disability I know they were trying to make her seem innocent but they should have just made her younger. I also really didn't like how most of their arc was dedicated to her really needing to piss. It was weird and stupid. Also, I thought the ending was just whatever for me. Nothing was really solved and it seemed like bait for a sequel. One which I don't quite feel like chomping at.

     

    I'm playing Crystalline you know that EVN that was made by the fine folks behind Ace Academy and while I'm sort of enjoying myself there are some issues I have with it. One, the story is pretty basic it's your classic Isekai tale that has already been done to death but that's okay the characters are decent and the writing is decent. The second thing is the boob physics. I hate boob physics they are always real off putting and fake. A woman putting her hands on her hips and slightly leaning forward will not cause her tits to ruble like some kind of earthquake. The last thing and worst thing about it is the amount of references. There is just too fucking much and they are not very funny and quite annoying. Referential humor can be funny only if it used in small doses and not all the fucking time. Visually however I think it is pretty great and the backgrounds are damn good.

    I'd recommend you play Fatal Twelve if you haven't already since it is a wonderful time that is filled with a lot of lots of twists that I didn't see coming.  

    Enigma is also another good choice and it is what got me back to the world of VNS 

     

    Oh I'd also recommend you play Moonlit Garden and Magical Eyes as well since they are satisfying reads despite being relatively short.

    Sony New Censorship Of Everything

    Of course most companies aren't religious. They still have to appeal to local sensitivities and try to avoid public outcries since both affect their image and sales.

    I get that but that doesn't really explain this recent bought of censoring. I wonder what event or decision made them change their policy.

    Yeah, it seems pretty bogus that sony is pulling this rank censorship with it's games man. It doesn't seem like their is any coherent messages from them regarding their decision so I guess we'll just have to wait for that. I don't get the whole religious angle you guyz are peddling though since one it's a Japanese company and two, I'm pretty sure most if not all game companies are secular to a fault. I also don't see any evidence that this is thanks to everyone's favorite boogieman either.

    I like episode vns so far as they have a clear release schedule and don't keep you waiting for fucking ages for them to release the second or final episode, like a favorite meme game that is still awaiting it's final chapter.

    I have lost faith in VN

    Brother, have you ever thought that you might have simply been playing the wrong Visual Novels? I have come to offer you guidance on this day, for the simple cost of a moment of your time. And your soul I want to preach to you the importance and significance of the greatest VN trilogy ever made, yes, that's right. I'm talking about the Galaxy Angel trilogy. Yes, I was almost like you once(But like better I'm pretty sure) I was lost and in need of guidance. I tried to find my way through 90's hip hop, leather jackets, and the comedy stylings of Richard Pryor and George Carlin. Then I found that sacred trilogy and I knew then, what I know now, that Galaxy Angel is the way and Mint Blancmanche is the light. After I played that holy trinity I found meaning in the world again and I found the will and drive to achieve my goals. So, I look to you, sorrowful vagabond and pitiless voyeur and offer you a way out of your current miserable state of affairs. If you do then salvation is at your door, but, if you do not, then.

    Most of the protagonists has that personality. Why i dunno, by now i cant say anything because im actually reading it. Also u can try with Sharin.

    He takes it to a whole new level.

    So, yeah don't read Hatsukoi. Or maybe only read a little of it.

     

    Honestly most vns have some romance to them

    Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate is good.  To Heart 2 is good. Pretty much most of Keys vn works are real good.

    Interest-wise, what part of the VN community would you say you're the most part of?

    The only thing this segregation does is for people to pick one of those and trash all the others and whoever likes them.

    Gets ready to toss Maggie into the trash compactor

    What? What are you looking at me like that for?

     

    I'm in the vn camp that likes good stories or semblances of stories filled with interesting characters and a protag that doesn't make me want to slit other peoples wrists.
