Undying Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 So, im getting on the years here, and like all decent good old man I recently started to tell stories of how much better stuff was when i was but a little young boy, and one of the things I really liked more when I wasn't this old coot was the anime and manga artstyle of the time. Im looking for VN with similar artstyle right now, so I would like some tips, I'll post some examples.

Albedo Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 YU-NO, Eve Burst Error and Desire have similar art styles, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kafunanapa3 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Try Tsukihime, I haven't played it properly yet, so I can't really say what it's like. But the art is similar to your example. If I remember rightly it was first released in 2000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BookwormOtaku Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Critical Point for what's available in english Shinsetsu Ryouki no Ori 1 and 2 for the untranslated stuff: http://gamesforadultsandeveryone.blogspot.com/2013/05/import-games-for-adults-shinsetsu.html http://gamesforadultsandeveryone.blogspot.com/2013/10/import-games-for-adults-halloween_17.html While not really a VN, the Growlanser games have the artwork you're looking for and are close enough that I'd recommend them if you don't mind gameplay (and have a console or emulator to play them) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undying Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share Posted February 3, 2014 YU-NO, Eve Burst Error and Desire have similar art styles, I think. Gonna look eve burst error later, YU-NO Ive almost finished, but them a sound bug started to apear and Ive stopped playing, later somethings happened and I lost my save lol. Try Tsukihime, I haven't played it properly yet, so I can't really say what it's like. But the art is similar to your example. If I remember rightly it was first released in 2000. Tsukihime is one of my favorites VN, its really good. Critical Point for what's available in english Shinsetsu Ryouki no Ori 1 and 2 for the untranslated stuff: http://gamesforadultsandeveryone.blogspot.com/2013/05/import-games-for-adults-shinsetsu.html http://gamesforadultsandeveryone.blogspot.com/2013/10/import-games-for-adults-halloween_17.html While not really a VN, the Growlanser games have the artwork you're looking for and are close enough that I'd recommend them if you don't mind gameplay (and have a console or emulator to play them) Alredy played Critical point, and untralsated stuff its no good for me. Growlanser its actually on my backlog, gonna look for it, but right now I was looking for some more traditional VN without mixed gameplay in.

BookwormOtaku Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Haven't played this game though I have heard it's good; hope you have an emulator handy though: http://vndb.org/v296 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undying Posted February 4, 2014 Author Share Posted February 4, 2014 Haven't played this game though I have heard it's good; hope you have an emulator handy though: http://vndb.org/v296 intersting, gonna put in the backlog. emulator is not a problem here since Ive managed to play xenoblade with dolphin without much loss, but since its a psx game maybe ill play in my psp.

Beato Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Kara no Shoujo isn't retro but it does feature a more realistic art style than most VNs. If you want other realistic styles you should probably look into western VNs like Cinders too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already played kara no shoujo, awesome VN, waiting for the sequel, if you guys know more Vn with similar artstyle plz recomend me. dont know many western VN, but its worth looking into.
