Blizzard884 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Recently I find this visual novel and I would like to ask if is worth installing. My HDD is slowly getting full, so I try to think before installing something new. That is why I like to hear what you have to say about it. Many thanks.

nohman Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Yes it is good, though it can be pretty bad at info dumping at the wrong times. Kinda kills the momentum at certain parts. Additionally, it's not that large of a game. So if space is an issue, that's a plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aceinthehole Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I thought it was good, but as always it depends on your personal taste.I will say its a bit of a heavy read emotionally, so be prepared for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carronade Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 It's good. Yes, it has its infodumps, but the action and characterization are pretty good. Rare to have a translated VN with such an amoral protagonist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwd2 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 you should try 鬼哭街 too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard884 Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 Thanks everyone for your thoughts. I will give it a try on this. you should try 鬼哭街 too OOOooo... it look interesting. Can you tell me where to download english version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tawm Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Yeah, it's decent. Great setting and music. As others have said, there's lots and lots of info dumping regarding swordplay and whatnot. It can get pretty tedious, as a lot of it is repeated. It has one of the most unlikeable protagonists you'll come across. Within 20 minutes, you'll want to see Akane's head on a spike. Also, the major plot twist is something you'll see coming a mile away. Thanks everyone for your thoughts. I will give it a try on this. OOOooo... it look interesting. Can you tell me where to download english version? I'd definitely recommend Kikokugai over Hanachirasu as well. Be prepared to read a comedy or something light hearted after that one, though, otherwise you'll have heartburn for weeks. It hasn't seen an official western release yet, as JAST loves spending years and years on projects. You should be able to find the fan translated version easily with a google search.

Clephas Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Depends on your perspective. The infodumping is a serious downer, if only because it tends to break the pacing. If you want something bloody, it is a decent choice, but if you don't have any patience for it, I'd suggest just holding down ctrl during the swordsmanship infodumps.

Nyanko Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Just ctrl all the infodumps and enjoy a nice story of ~2 hours long, heh No but really, just experience it for yourself, it's pretty short anyway (infodumps included). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XReaper Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 @blizzard go for it! short but nice vn, with an overall ambitious and charsmatic protag. also liked the wtf ending very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beato Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 It's supposed to be pretty good but I'd suggest that you wait a little before reading it. Hanachirasu is getting an official release (yes it is finally coming out) in February and that is going to have a revised translation so you're better off reading that instead.

FinalChaos Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I was looking for a dark protag and decided to read Hanachirasu, I'll be downloading and playing it in a few days, so I guess we both will be reading it.

Bolverk Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I read some of this vn is jp. I dropped it because the swordfight infodumps got on my nerves. Might be nicer if you can skip through those in eng. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolverk Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I read it in native Japanese because I wanted that. I didn't use patch the game with the eng patch. So yeah.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
