Zenophilious Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Depends on Length, I can usually read a 50 hour vn in like 3-4 days depending on how many hours a day I spend reading That's pretty damn impressive. I read faster than most people I know, but I can't spend most of the day reading VNs, so...that's why it took me so long to finish Kajitsu. EDIT: I literally ended Sharin no Kuni on a cliffhanger last night. The lolz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, I have the free time, but as I live with someone that would freak out if they knew that I was reading/playing something with 18+ content in their house (even though I'm legally able to see it >.> ), I can't use all or most of it to read VNs.

In that regard it's the same for me, but I have my pc on my bedroom, so whenever someone approaches my bedroom I alt+tab to fuwa. On a side note, I'm liking the heavier and bloodier tone in Comyu's final route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tatsujin Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Okay, why are they pronouncing Mare's name so weird in Japanese? It's in Hoshizora VN. Well, the English IS the weird one ... Ma-re is pronounced that way. Why is it pronounced "Meira" or something close to that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatsujin Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 No, not yet. Reading Hoshizora pretty slow ... it's getting interesting though. Man I really like the blonde girls and I've yet to meet that girl with the white hair (she looks older than Mare). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenophilious Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 On a side note, I'm liking the heavier and bloodier tone in Comyu's final route. I take it that shit is getting real in Comyu? No, not yet. Reading Hoshizora pretty slow ... it's getting interesting though. Man I really like the blonde girls and I've yet to meet that girl with the white hair (she looks older than Mare). They're sisters, and their names are Komomo (tsundere who keeps kicking You in the shins and hates the Tenkuru) and Kosame (the nicer one that hangs around Asuho and the random guy who takes pictures and is obsessed with finding aliens Mirai). I thought they were the best routes in the VN, but I haven't done Mare's route or the secret route yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I had already seen some of it coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverLi Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I decided to play Sharin no Kuni this coming weekend and starting for real when I arrive home this afternoon and hopefully finish it this weekend/next week. I haven't done anything for 2 - 3 weeks when I got at least 20 VNs on my to do list. Bad Silver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vokoca Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 GAREJ GAAAAREJ WHERE YOU AT ITS HAPPENING AW YEAH! You're in for a hell of a ride! On the last route myself. Oh, by the way - I bought Hachimyoujin (man dat artbook), so I should be getting around to it eventually. Might take a short break from hard stuff after Muramasa, but I'm getting there.

Wow, Hurry up and get your masada goodness, Plebian. I should probably take a break from hard shit myself. I just tried Oretsuba and it stomped on me so hard I had to go to something easier like Muramasa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenophilious Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Well, it seems that I'm 3/5 of the way through Natsumi's choices. Just got past the part where she was interrogated for supposedly seducing Douchebag McWomanizer and forcing him to shower her with gifts. Now her severe anti-social behavior and fear of being touched makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronopolis Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 GAREJ GAAAAREJ WHERE YOU AT ITS HAPPENING HYPE HYPE HYPE. Welcome aboard. Still only half-way through Kanae's route though. Wow, Hurry up and get your masada goodness, Plebian. I should probably take a break from hard shit myself. I just tried Oretsuba and it stomped on me so hard I had to go to something easier like Muramasa. Lol. Well at least Muramasa explains it's own morality explcitly. Is Jackson's writing really that difficult to read though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stray Cat Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I finally have time to start playing again. Narcissu 1st and 2nd as soon as the download finishes.

He might as well use steam's, if it has a high number of downloads maybe steam will want more VNs other than the already planned Grisaia no Kajitsu.

Only reason I can think of for not using Steam's is not wanting your friends to know that you read/play VNs. Dunno if Stray Cat cares about that or not, though.

I couldn't care less because I barely have any friends on steam that I really know. Well to each his own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The medium alone can carry a negative connotation for some people, adult-centered or otherwise. Some people might just be embarrassed having their friends see them play an 'animu game.' To keep it on topic, I'm still crawling my way through Michiru's route in between bouts of studying and procrastination. I hope to finish it sometime tonight or tomorrow and then move on to doing the one route I never got around to reading in Konosora last year.

Still, though, part of the appeal of Fuwanovel to some people is being able to access and enjoy VNs with other people anonymously. There's a stigma to VNs, ya know. Some people think that they're just porn, and treat you like a perverted weirdo even if all you read are all-ages VNs.

EDIT: Ninja'd >.> I know of the negative connotations the VN medium brings with itself, but not everyone cares about them. I mean, I know what it's like to want to hide the fact you play such games, I do so from my parents, however if I had any friends pestering me about it I would just ignore it. Now to get this back on track, I'm kind of struggling to make progress on Kagome's route, I don't know why since I'm loving the route, but I just seem to be going at a snails pace.

Some people can handle that type of thing better than others. I was in Boy Scouts since I was in elementary school, and I never hid that fact from anyone, even though the common perception was that Boy Scouts was "gay", which I thought was pretty hilarious, considering that you couldn't be gay and be in Scouts at that time. A fellow Scout I knew never mentioned it at all to anyone that didn't already know he was in Scouts. I personally don't give two shits what people think about me unless I actually care about them and their opinions. That happened to me with Makina's route in Grisaia. Honestly, if you're having a hard time making progress, I'd recommend doing something else for a day or two, then starting again. That helped me. I'm kinda surprised about how fast I'm getting through Natsumi's chapter. I've now passed 4/5 choices, and it hasn't even taken me that long.
