Is UuultraC worth trying considering I've found Hashihime overrated (it wasn't that bad but it wasn't the masterpiece some people were propping it to be either) ? From what I've heard UuultraC is even more controversial/lowly regarded than Hashihime.

Past thread in OP is wrong btw

what was the name of that one era (?) game where you could be a broodmare for tentacle monsters? but they were all cute boys and i think there was an option to play as a guy too

>>50581884
eraAWT?

>>50581340
Can't believe you didn't fix the ugly double pasted mess from last OP

>>50581895
eraAWT is it thank you

>>50581796
It's my favorite actually but unless the elements it consists of are in your strike zone you will probably dislike it, the plot can be hard to follow

What happened with this schizo again? Will she release crow at least?

I loved Homicipher but I think at this point I'd actually rather she quit making games and seek therapy instead of stringing me along on her schizo breakdowns

>>50583856
imagine bumbling your way into success and fucking it up because you're too menhera

>>50583856
Why did she do that? Is it because of the switch release? Also weren't people paying for her fanbox just to get crow and the other one text game that she was making updates?
I tried the crow demo when she shared it for free and it was really interesting. What a cow.

Serious question but did anyone even goon to this fuckass H scenes ? I don't the point of his character when we've already got August and Neil as pedo priests.

>>50590483
The spanking scene was...something, but August and Neil did it better indeed.

Has anyone tried out Neon Clash?

the plot can be hard to follow in this one

>>50583856
Is she done updating her fanbox then?

How much do you have to read of a VN to figure that it's gonna be bad ?

>>50596243
I usually do one route and if it doesn't grab me I drop the game

>>50596243
Till the H scenes.

>>50596243
If I'm bored during the common route I drop it.

>>50597340
Ngl almost all the common routes are boring for me, even from the VNs I end up liking.

I went through plenty of games with shit starts which I ended up loving at the end. Though for otome, if it's garbage, then it's garbage all throughout

>>50597596
Did it only apply to otomate games or did it extend to games from other companies like rejet, voltage, qr, etc?

>>50600262
just start talking about them if you want?

>>50600262
They became harder to get, at least for me.

How come? Common routes are almost always the best part of any VN because that’s where you get to see the whole cast bouncing off each other. Once you enter the LI route most of the cast just mysteriously disappears and I really dislike that. Even in plot VNs common routes tend to be the most intriguing part since they’re all about setting things up and teasing the mystery.

>>50600262
Most of the time I'll listen to a niche doujin CD. I can't remember the last time I listened to a commercial work.

>>50601700
I'm playing VNs for the OTPs not for seeing 5 random dudes interacting. Common routes are boring as hell except for like the last segment of it where the actual action/plot finally starts picking up.
>> Once you enter the LI route most of the cast just mysteriously disappears and I really dislike that.
Dramatical Murder was the only VN I've played where I've seen that happening. Does this happen more often in otomes ?

>>50601988
Same here

Is the "true route" boy ever your favorite?

>>50605335
Leni from Under The Moon pretty much is the true route, right? If you count him I loved that shit.

>>50605335
I was obsessed with Iroha when I played Hana Awase. His actual volume is straight garbage and did away with the things that made him appealing to me though. Actually I’m starting to get annoyed again just thinking about it.
Luckily the series has multiple routes for each character I guess.

>>50605335
That sounds annoying, imagine having to play all the other guys just to get toyour favorite, especially if the VN isn't even that good/the other LIs aren't as appealing.

>>50606107
In non-otome when there's true route then it is expected that the vn is more plot-focused than romance-focused so you should know exactly what you're getting yourself into. I feel like otome tends to abuse true route system too much even if the vn doesn't really need it.

>>50606255
Do you have any examples of true routes you felt were unnecessary?

>>50607085
Comedy stuff like Variable Barricade or Cupid Parasite.

>>50606058
I still love Hana Awase despite what they did with Iroha Hen. My favorite was Mizuchi but I feel bad for those who had Iroha as their favorite since even Utsutsu got a better treatment in the last game somehow.

I still think Hana Awase is great even if the last entry was such a mess.

>>50607085
Boring ass Nano from Togainu no Chi.

>>50607612
I also still like it despite the issues. It has a really different feeling than most otomege, it was like the writer had never actually played one before and was inventing the genre from first principles based off of 90s shoujo manga.

Yeah, not in the line of games like some denpas or chu2ges for eroges but Hana Awase was such a wild and fun ride for me so it still is one of my all time favorites.

Why do we care about this when the switch version has been out for ages anyway?

Is it playable on emu?

Puppy semes scare me.

This new captcha sucks

>>50605335
I like Minakami.


>>50601700
>>50597584
Depends on the common route for me. If it's like Nie No machi where it's basically "pick your favorite boy over and over" and basically an excuse to set up the character routes it's meh to me. I like the common route in Kintouka because it felt like reading an actual story.

how's this?

>>50618307
I was curious about it too cause the guys are hot but I've heard that the English TL is bad, potentially AI generated (cause they already used AI for backgrounds). Also from what I've heard it may not even have H scenes.

>>50614084
I wish.
We need more female on male rape in otome because there is none. And I don't mean bad endings only.

My fault for hanging around those places but the more time i spend on western otome spaces the more i start to despise yurishitters. To clarify i have nothing against yuri routes or the devs that want to add them on their own games, the problem are the retarded fans that refuse to play GL games while not understanding that people only play otomes for the ikemen (worse yet the people that criticize devs for adding "problematic" routes instead of yuri routes).
Their only retort is that GL games are written by men but like... girl it's 2026 at this point there should be a lot more GL made by and for women in sites like itch io, steam, freem, etc.

>>50620897
Yurishitters or not, the western otome audience is completely fucked - they'll never give anything outside their trash heap a chance. It's a big reason why they constantly shill extremely mediocre/bad games while everyone else just rolls their eyes. Otomefags would rather stagnate, gobble up slop written by these so called "based" joseimuke female authors and then complain about the genre incessantly.
Granted, Asians are also mentally ill as fuck and have garbage taste but in a different flavor. There is just no winning nowadays in any non-anonymous space.

Any recs for a fool who loves N+C? Specifically because they’re hilarious. BL and otome both OK.
BTW new captcha system is fucked.

>>50618541
>cause they already used AI for backgrounds
They just look like photographs with a filter over them to me.

>>50622019
Paradise is edgy & hilarious. Maybe try other Pil/Slash games too if you like it.

Check out Pill/Slash and Parade BL VNs.

>>50622347
>>50622697
Appreciate it. Paradise looks possibly like gay anime lord of the flies which is great

>>50622347
>>50623023
Forgot to mention Ooe from ADELTA. It definitely fits the edgy club.

>>50596243
I routinely drop VNs after reading them for less than an hour.

>>50620897
I wonder if they also get upset when the vegan food truck won't sell them chicken tendies.

>>50596243
The first decision matters

>>50596243
On the other hand much do I have to read of a VN to figure that it's gonna be good?

>>50627100
By the end of the common route/start of a character route you should be hooked on if it's a good VN I reckon.

Hmm so who's the Minku(s) of this game then ?

Should I play DYNAMIC CHORD switch ver or PC ver? Are there big differences between the two?

>>50632158
I hate it when they do this, why can't we have the best of both worlds?

>>50631686
This doesn't mean much, it includes bad endings. Also is the MC a seke? A lot of love interest look ukeish

>>50632992
It was said that MC is full uke. Also besides the rape tag he also has the unhealthy relationship tag so this does imply more of a route thing than just a bad ending. I just hope it's not my fave LI if it is.
