Yuuko Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Whoops, I meant to say Kosame instead of Asuho Dx Hoshimemo was one of my first VNs, so it's hard to remember all of the characters. Asuho's route was still pretty solid, in my opinion, if a little exaggerated. My personal rankings of the routes is this: Komomo > Kosame > Asuho > Chinami > Secret heroine > Mare. I'm not including Isuzu because I hate her and I skipped her route entirely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decay Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 This is probably the most provocative thing I've ever read about Hoshimemo. I love Chinami, but almost everyone seems to hate her, because she's is too realistic. Don't know why. I assume people don't want realistic little sisters in their porn games. They want them to be quiet and non-intrusive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenophilious Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Even if Mare didn't have good route, you'll still agree that she's the best girl right? And fandisk will fix it. If someone doesn't love Mare after the fandisk I don't know what to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decay Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Mare is actually the worst girl. Like, the single worst one in the game. Uuuggh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decay Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 She is completely devoid of any interesting personality throughout the whole work and I cannot fathom what anyone sees in her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nohman Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 She is completely devoid of any interesting personality throughout the whole work and I cannot fathom what anyone sees in her. I kinda get it. Watching her get flustered in the common route is kinda cute, but it's not like there's any depth or uniqueness to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XReaper Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 pausing teito hiten, to play blue* instead. from a visually point of view it looks really nice so far, also traslation reads quite natural. cant stand it when it sounds like planeta elektronika Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenophilious Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Nope, Isuzu worst girl. It's totally her fault that her personality is total garbage. FTFY Chinami and Mare's routes are both pure fanservice, but I thought they at least had better quality fanservice in Chinami's route, and at least Chinami's route makes sense and takes more than 30 minutes to read.

sub-zer0 Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I had to put Hoshizora no Memoria on hold because of this one character with a voice that I absolutely cannot stand, the story is pretty good so far, has me interested, but It's going o the hold list for now, starting Akatsuki no Goei,its a medium sized VN , with a Fandisc as well, so unless I decided to change what I read again, I'll be pretty preoccupied for the next couple of days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbro Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I got the Vita version of Steins;gate so I've begun to play that. I've played it on PC before, but I never did do all the routes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getsuya Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Getting near the end of the first route of Flowers (which means I'm probably something like 2/3 done since the 2nd route re-uses a huge amount of text from the common route) and the feels are for reals. The plot has some problems, some little hiccups, but man when it delivers it delivers in spades. I was just about crying last night, and I'm pretty sure I'll cry more than once before this is all over. But man that character design. I am never going to be able to let that go.

Kurokusari Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 I just finished Sakura's route for Tokyo School Life and I am wondering why does it have a score less than 7. It was really educational, although I do doubt the credibility of the info since I don't feel like doing extensive research about Japan. Still, it's a good read. A bit cliche but it isn't really a chore to read. Or maybe the killing blow is in the other two routes. Maybe I liked it too much because it somewhat fits my taste. A dying heroine is something that really hits me in the feels gland. Sakura was someone that was alive but also dead since she didn't expect a long life ahead of her. They kinda failed in giving her a 'detached' feel tho. The glaring flaw for me is the fact that they had a good buildup but completely blew it in the last hit. I'm not sure where it lacked but her breaking point didn't hit the intended effect for me. There was something off but I have no idea what. I didn't see any voice actors in the credits so I have no idea who voiced the characters but they didn't give me a bad impression. Not bad but not great either. And the voice of Karin sounds like a cross between Chisato from Koichoco and Amane from Grisaia. Weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zantax Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Finished Hanahira. When I was starting reading this VN I was like 'Well, all of Sonohana is basically just yuri nukige. Since Hanahira is all ages and can't have ero scenes then it must have some plot or character development to fill empty space'... So, no plot or character development. No wonder - the whole VN is just one day of four girls life (and parts of two other days in good ending). Just some mild comedy, sometimes somewhat funny, usually not really. Well, if it was only Kaori and Amane I would be ok with that, because I quite liked them (though both have super flat characters). However there were also Makoto and Koharu which I found really annoying. Actually at the end I realized that I iked it more than I expected after first hour of reading. Still, it was rather bland and uninteresting. If someone like Sonohana VNs for other reasons than ero scenes then I guess can read this as well. But overall it's not really something I would recommend. 6/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosakyun Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Started playing Yume Miru Kusuri, Aeka's route. Everything's going smoothly. Though I do agree that there are a lot of H-scenes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidShu Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I'm not sure if I can keep playing School Days HQ. I played Kotonoha's route first and despite, what I felt was, a lack of chemistry between Makoto and Kotonoha really enjoyed it. However, it seemed like Makoto still cared much more for Sekai even at the end. While Sekai was quite disturbed I was still able to put up with it. I almost broke when Sawamura made her cry, I felt like ripping my screen apart, but I was able to endure. Now that I am going for Sekai and Kotonoha is with Sawamura the feeling is ten fold. Just when he tried to force her to give him a good bye kiss, I stopped that right away, and unfortunately lost relationship bar with Sekai. As it is now I may not get the full SDHQ experience as I don't want to dare see Kotonoha being fucked by another guy and treated as Sekai was.

Kurokusari Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Just finished Karin's route and I still have no idea why this scored below 7. It's nothing grand but nothing terrible either. Karin's character isn't really that deep but goes well with her route. An aspiring idol that has a cool style but has a strange obssession with cute things. In a somewhat exaggerated way, her conflict is throwing away her ideals in exchange for an opportunity to reach her life-long dream. In a weak way, she wants to be cute but her dream asks for coolness. In how I see it, she's a teenage girl who reached the point in her life where you need to decide on what do you want to do. It's pretty relatable if you ask me since there are people that feel like this when taking on an opportunity for a greener pasture. The story didn't aim for much so it didn't achieve much. One more route then I'll continue on reading Symphonic Rain which has been stalled for almost a year. The season's just right to fit with the story's setting~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurokusari Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Finally finished with the last route! Aoi's route was . . . something? The others can't really be called compelling but this one takes the cake. The conflict was lackluster and I think it was resolved too easily. Not that the others weren't but I think the way they resolved it was too cliche. Also, they made too many things go on simultaneously. Done with the 3 routes and the only reason I can find as to why it was rated so low is because it was plain. Didn't strive for anything big but they didn't screw up in giving a bland story I guess. I didn't have any expectations at all when I started reading so I think that helped in my perception of a story such as this. It didn't tug at my heartsrings nor did it provoke any thoughts. Altough, the visuals were a good change of pace since it did use the E-mote system. Summary in one sentence: It's so plain that people find it bad.
