    I joined to ask for some recommendations. Your forum sure looks nice. 
    Hmmm, I didn't know what avatar to use, so I took an image drawn recently by the artist of NieR Replicant... hopefully, they won't sue me. c_c Though, I really shouldn't be using the pic of such an innocent hero when I might be talking about some naughty or even disgusting things on here.... thoughts-thoughts...
    My name is Rusolando... might need a friend.

    Alcorin reacted to SabakiRe in What Video Games Are You Playing Right Now?   
    Anyways, I'm playing Dark Souls III DLC. 
    Have to say, I'm a bit tired with the game as of now but the beautiful locations and fun enemies keep me going. I wish it wasn't as labyrinth-like, though since I kind of want to get through it quickly. My attention is short and I got a bit worn out by the 2nd half of the game, mostly during Archives level... the final two bosses were amazing, though, just like the first half of the game. 
    My conflict is that there's Sekiro coming out in less than a month, plus I have Dark Souls I and II + Bloodborne. Not really sure if I'll play DS II and Bloodborne, though... I did play BB in the past and got pretty far but stopped because I couldn't understand how co-op works. Want to finish it now but I'm not sure... and DS II feels a bit strange. It's very different from DS for some reason... can't decide if I like it. Anyways, three huge games left and I am still with DLC for DS III, haha. I know if I'd put the DLC away, it would be difficult for me to get back. All DS are quite different and when you put them down, the skill gets down - and it's not like my skill is worth mentioning. =_=

    No offense, but haven't you posted the same question every week for over a month? Or at least very similar. While there may be a hentai section on this site, but this is primarily a vn based site. Try asking on 4chan or a dedicated hentai forum as you aren't yielding any results here.

    Alcorin reacted to Plk_Lesiak in Does anyone else hate it when in an eroge the MC busts out some wild sex positions?   
    Sadly, porn is porn. It's always oriented towards maximum visibility, with length and sequences focused on giving you a good fap rather than expressing something meaningful or staying true to the characters. That's why I think it's a damn shame there's so few softcore/17+ VNs with non-explicit erotic segments. Hentai as a formula is simply not compatible with having realistic/story-oriented sex scenes and in most cases, even the developers and writers of VNs don't pretend they aren't tacked-on fanservice.
    ^ and this, ladies and gentlemen, how I would lose 100 karma on r/visualnovels

    I try to only do one at a time, but the truth is that, unless my hyperfixation kicks in, my attention span is pitiful So I usually have 2-3 big things going on and a myriad of smaller ones that I can finish in 1-2 sittings ^^

    The definition of  'good enough' is that it is... good enough.  So while I appreciate time and effort spent going above and beyond to do excellent work, 'good enough' is perfectly acceptable.  That's what it means.
    Where it gets weird is that 'good enough' changes over time.  Standards change.  Work that was 'good enough' for video game translations in the late 90's / early 2000's will generally not pass today's minimum standards.  Mostly, it doesn't qualify as 'good enough' anymore.  Companies have raised the bar over time to bring the average up enough that people demand better.
    And that is the real threat here:  The VN scene still does bad enough business that SakuraGame's business model - 'burn the forest down and profit off the ashes' - probably provides a comparable profit to doing things right.  Some number of companies will look at the foreign 'market', see it an order of magnitude smaller than the Japanese market (even though Japan has shrunk so much since the heyday 10 years ago or so), and not care enough to pay attention and just sign with SakuraGame because they offered more money or it's easier.
    Just like normal video games moved the bar up, but there's NISA and Tecmo Koei trying to drag it back down - the real threat is lowering the bar, so 'good enough' starts including bad work.

    So I read Aviary Attorney, and basically it's Ace Attorney with BoJack Horseman's sense of humor and a pretty unique art style set in France in 1848. The gameplay mainly focuses on the investigations and not the actual trials. Aviary Attorney's shortness is its main flaw (Ace A has cases that are longer than all of Aviary A), leaving little time for character development and even most major characters are pretty flat. Still, it's a fun way to spend a few hours, especially if you're suffering from Ace Attorney withdrawal or would like to see a more mature take on the lawyer game genre.

    Lilium x Triangle follows the story of Haruka, a succubus from the demon world, who came to the human world with one desire: To kiss cute human girls and suck their vital energy! However, she had no luck with anybody and collapsed in the street, only to be found by sisters Yuuna and Sana. Haruka comes to a realization that's going to turn her world upside-down.

    It's the evening before the end of the world, and Sumire's spending it with her big sister, Azami. But will she be able to convey her true feelings before it's all over?
    The world ends tomorrow is a short yuri visual novel originally released by Natsukon, who those of... amber, eclectic tastes may know for their rather different title Yurinate!. No need to worry about anything lewd in TWET though, bar handholding I suppose. Ahem. Anyway I like, released a translation of it today, so have at it, or something.

    I don't play nukiges either ^^ Eroges, sometimes, but I usually go for an all-ages version then. Sex scenes just make me uncomfortable ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I'll stomach them if they're important for the plot or characterization, but since that's not the case 9 times out of 10... As for what I do read, I like otome, BL, yuri, mystery, and horror <3

    This is purely curiosity but I've noticed so many people here playing nukige and eroge or like almost every conversation here mentioned nukige and eroge. Then again, I am still new and haven't explored fuwanovel more. So, I wonder if there are any people like me who don't play nukige or eroge? What kind of visual novel are you playing then? For me it is otomege. Ikemen is justice and the ships shall sailed! Hehehe...

    NOTE: I don't mean any offence to those who played nukige or eroge. It's a matter of preference and I have no say on that.

    They also announced that they're no longer working with the PR team they outsourced to for the original Kickstarter campaign.  Apparently they're hiring steiner (one of the translators for the original VN) to as a brand manager, and there isn't going to be any kind of middleman company involved.  He's also going to be the sole translator for Kaziklu Bey as well.
    I dunno about anyone else, but I'm pretty hyped.  It's definitely the kick in the pants I need to get around to finishing the original.

    I actually have some firsthand knowledge about this!
    It 100% depends on the company. Some actually try to structure their games towards a western audience (and are beginning to make changes to all future games to do this, including making them all-ages or story-based), while others still see the west as an after-thought.

    Alcorin reacted to AustriaVNFan in Hello everyone   
    After reading VNs for over 2 years now and coming here again and again to either read some walkthorughs or to get ideas for new VNs to read I decided to create an acount, something I usually never do. But I did so in this case because I know that the VN genre will continue to fascinate me for a long time to come and it is fun to discuss VN related things.
    As my name may indicate I am not a native English speaker so please be lenient with me if I use overly complicated or weird expressions from time to time.
    Also, as you may see from my vndb profile, I read a lot of different VNs, I am not stuck with just one kind of VNs. A good story is the most important thing for me, although I also like romance and good heroines to chase. Mind you, I even read an otome VN although I am male and might do so again, if the story is good.
    And I will conclude this post with a real newbie question: How can I change my profile pic? I mean the one on the left side of the posts - the one which is currently just the letter 'A' in my case? Help is very much appreciated!
