  1. I never read more than 1 VN at once. It kinda ruins my experience of immersion with VN if I try to follow two different stories. However, if I don't feel like finishing VN I will just skip it for a better time and start a new one. (Examples: Chaos;Head, Clannad. Seriously, watching anime adaptation before knowing about VN kinda ruins everything.) The only exception would be RPG VNs. I am fine with reading VN and playing RPG one at the same time.
  2. Seriously, I have to admit that this VN is really long. This is my 3rd day reading it, and I am still on Ritsuko's Route. To be more precise, I am on Chapter...
  3. I just started playing this VN yesterday, and I was wondering what happens if you select a different girl each time for the choice?
  4. That's how it's supposed to be. Melee chars can hit only from the front row. It also kinda explains why the early game sucked so hard in previous patch. On a side note, does anyone have a 100% cg/scene completion save? I am missing 3 book and Loum scene, and I don't feel like grinding it. Edit: Never mind, found it. I think I am satisfied with just 2 playthroughs.
  5. Yeah, it's really frustrating to get Cass and Ayaka. My approach was to get jobs where I found them and then just keep spamming without completing them. Teleport + Awaraness skills really help there.
  6. No, it doesn't say, just keep grinding. I am sure that it happens after you get the Prison. There is a single ending only.
  7. It's definitely incompete. I have managed to recruit Miko, Battle Maid, and Rune Knight (M Knight?) as well.
  8. As a rpg gamer, you never get enough grinding, lol. Finished all 3 routes in Yumina The Ethereal. Taking a break from it before tackling side story and Super Hard difficulty for True Ending. Started and finished Bunny Black in 2 days. Currently on my 2nd playthrough. The game is not really challenging although I died a few times in the beginning before I figure out what to do. However, I must admit that playing 2 grinding VNs at the same time is a bad way to play efficiently.
  9. I am not sure if I should regret the fact that I included strategy/rpg tag in my VN search. Currently grinding in Yumina the Ethereal. Overall, it's quite a decent VN with an amusing change of plot's scale.This game can be a bit on a grindy side (stupid dungeon quests and have to clear Normal, Hard, Super Hard for true route), but I'm still enjoying it. Also, at the same time I finished playing Tokyo Twilight Ghost Hunters (PS Vita). For a Vita game I guess it's decent, but if I judge it as VN, the story seems to be a bit short and lacking. Also, the friendship system in this game is a mess. It takes a lot of efforts to actually get the ending that you desired.
  10. First of all, big thanks for your work! I really enjoyed this VN with your translation. After I found out that the sequel has no active translation project I was quite depressed. However, now I am really happy to hear that you have decided to work on Majikoi s as well. Looking forward to see the results of your work!
  11. Just finished Higurashi Question Arcs. I really regret that I have watched anime before playing VN. After playing Umineko, you kinda start to think and analyze Higurashi Arcs as "gameboards" and mystery novel rather just watch how the plot develops in anime. What a waste, sigh. Gonna go straight for Answer Arcs.
  12. Keep reading. Things get even more interesting till the end. Umineko was probably the longest VN that I ever read, but it was well worth it. Epic. After playing Umineko, you really start to look at Higurashi story from the different perspective though I have watched its anime adaptation.
  13. Yeap, don't spoil the best part of Muv-Luv and experience it for yourself. Started playing first arc of Higurashi. What a shame that there is no voice patch for PC version. I guess I should be glad that we have PS2 sprites at least.
  14. Indeed, I had to rewatch that scene second time to persuade the protagonist and myself that it wasn't his dream/imagination, lol. Considering to start playing Higurashi series.
  15. Started playing Chaos;Head, but got stuck at closer to the end. For some reasons, I just can't force myself to finish it. As a result, I've decided to leave it for better time. Started playing Clannad and cleared all routes leaving Nagisa's route for the end, but guess what. I got stuck there too since I couldn't force myself to reread the general route which was repeated in some routes and I didn't want to skip it since I won't get full impressions from Nagisa's route. Status: left for better time. However, I have finished Tomoyo After: It's a Wonderful Life before Nagisa's route. In general, the plot wasn't too bad for a side story, but...that end. I can see why some people don't like it. Personally, I accepted the end as it is, and it didn't really touch me at first. Then next morning I read the manga that was based on this VN and, well, my tears were flowing at the end. This brings me to the current point. Since it was recommended by some people, I've decided to tackle the Muv-Luv Saga starting from Extra. Muv-Luv Extra - quite generic harem and comedy. I can see why people call it bad, but since I wasn't expecting to see any action and whatever Muv-Luv series were praised for, I enjoyed it to some extent. Muv-Luv Unlimited - this is where things start get interesting. After Extra, seeing familiar characters but in a totally different plot and setting gave me fresh impressions. Overall, I didn't really have any big complaints with this VN since I knew that Alternative is where real thing starts. As a story on its own, it was good enough for me. Muv-Luv Alternative - Just finished yesterday. It made me an official fanboy of Muv-Luv series for now. I didn't cry throughout the whole VN, but everything was damn good. I didn't regret spending time on reading all 3 VN's. After some thinking, I consider the Muv-Luv saga to be epic.
