  1. Lol, I already have a GB classic and an Advance so backwards compatibility aren't an issue for me.

    I'm also pretty interested in writing something for the DS lol.

  2. Failed in my second attempt to play through of Katahane.

    Maybe it's just me but it's f*cking slow.

    First attempt was last year, I only got two hours in before giving up.

    This time I gave it a longer go, but I've had like 3 decisions (which seem to do nothing) and the story is weak.

    If anyone's played longer and it gets better or something let me know, but it really doesn't seem to be going anywhere.

    Art is nice, but can't hold a game.

    Would not recommend.

  3. You blanked out your character name so I can't teleport you.

    As for the bug, it's happened to me before after DD.

    Just use a map transfer scroll?

  4. BTW 'Dual' means exactly two.

    While multi-clienting is allowed, this does seem like abuse.

    8 accounts? I checked, each account has 1 character at level 1, purely for fishing.

    I have access to a server, does that mean I should make 100 fishers and leave them on all day?

    No, people would QQ about it being unfair and it would be. Especially to the people who can't be on 24/7 fishing.

    I'm not going to ban this time, but to me this feels like unfair balancing similar to multivoting.

  5. That is a pretty lame excuse, I've seen better.

    Let's take a look at what links these two accounts.

    They both use the same password. What a coincidence!

    They both use the same IP addresses.

    Since you use a cafe that's not surprising except...

    Same IP addresses used on both accounts:

    120.28.127.48
    112.203.146.237
    180.191.171.195
    120.28.126.171
    120.28.127.127
    180.191.33.99
    
    Just so you know, EVERY IP address linking001 used matches up to you.

    So that means you're in the cafe every time that account is logged into, hmmmmmmm.

    I also checked if anyone else was in the cafe all those times. Nope, just you.

    There is a mountain of evidence that you're a liar.

    A terrible one too btw.

  6. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_novel

    Visual novels are distinguished from other game types by their extremely minimal gameplay. Typically the majority of player interaction is limited to clicking to keep the text, graphics and sound moving (most recent games offer "play" or "fast-forward" toggles that make even this unnecessary).

    You might be more interested in Dating Sims or an RPG hybrid.

    Catherine was entertaining in a fucked up way but that was for PS3.

    My experience with these are limited unfortunately, I prefer the minimalist nature of VN's.

  7. Well I just finished Katawa Shoujo - Rin's route.

    I'd been avoiding it firstly because I assumed it was 4chan shitting out something terrible again and secondly because I'd seen my gf play it and assumed the whole thing would be as poor quality as the backgrounds.

    I realize now I was an idiot for not playing it sooner.

    I enjoyed every minute of it and while the narrative was a bit drawn out at times it was forgivable.

    The subject matter was handled extremely well, it would be wrong to dismiss this vn purely because the characters have some form of disability.

    Worth noting is the option to turn explicit content off, though you would be an idiot to do so. I'm not sure about the other routes but with Rin the scenes are important. I can't explain it with words and even if I could they wouldn't do it justice.

    It's NOT the disjointed porn scenes thrown in like in alot of vn's, trust me.

    The only difficult decision I have now is whether to play the other routes or not. The completionist in me is upset that I'm only 33% done but I only feel that taking the other routes will somehow cheapen the experience.

    I rate it highly.

  8. I'll have to play through some of these :o

    Wanko to Kurasou was pretty decent (first VN I played).

    It's mostly pornographic but the characters are easy to get attached to and gets pretty depressing at some points.

    Definitively not for under 18, but worth playing through.

    Kinda short.

    what's with the boat?

    http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/nice-boat

    Which route did you like best? For me, True route, best ending I hoped for. Second is Shiratori, Third is the MC's sister and last is the classmate. Kinda forgot their name.

    I liked the true route too lol.

    My favourite characters were Shiratori and Kanon. I didn't really like Usami until I played her route and learnt her backstory but she turned out to be awesome. Tsubaki was just plain boring, I didn't like her or her route lol.

  9. ...or they bought/traded a high level account.

    Everyone seems to be hating on the second part of the suggestion (making the level gap work both ways) but do you really have a problem with just removing it?

    Higher leveled players will still hit as hard, it just gives lower leveled player a chance to fight back.

    Otherwise you're a punching bag.

  10. Yup, Devil on G-string is one of the bst VN that i've enjoyed. Usagi route on the first playthrough. Here's my other favorites.

    Lol, I ended up doing all the routes before Usagi.

    First play through I was like wtf, it just cut the story short after the first route.

    Hehe, is the anime cutscenes in Schooldays good? I didn't have the chance to play the game but I've only watched the anime series.

    If you enjoyed the anime I highly recommend the VN. Only the HQ version is in full English but there are also a bunch of system enhancements like a route tree so you can go back to specific decisions and take an alternate route easily.

    EDIT: Also

  11. Well fuck guys, don't mind me. I enjoy cleaning up threads.

    broom_zpse3b67f9f.jpg

    1. Schooldays

    2. The World God only Knows

    3. Zero no Tsukaima

    [Honorable Mentions]

    The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, SAO, K-on, Airgear, Darker than Black, FMA + Brotherhood, Elfen Lied, Chobits, Samurai Champloo, Lucky Star, Excel Saga, Fate/stay Night + Zero, Ergo Proxy, Yuru Yuri and Code Geass.

    I can't believe noone else liked Excel Saga, Yuru Yuri or Code Geass D:!!

    There was another one I enjoyed with a group of kids in a highscool afterlife, and they had to enjoy themselves to pass on.

    I can't remember the name for the life of me. The main girl looked like Haruhi though.

    EDIT: I'm retarded, it was Angel Beats.

  12. I don't know how many people are willing to discuss VN's due to their generally pornographic nature, but here goes.

    The Devil on G-String [18+]: (Mystery/Action)

    Not sure if the pun was intended but G-String refers to the violin lol.

    This one has to be my all time favorite. The characters are interesting, the story is exciting, and the twist was unexpected.

    One thing to note, you have to option to pursue a number of girls but doing so will cut the story short. The points of no-return are fairly obvious and if you've 'played' a VN before you'll know to save often.

    It made me pick up a violin again lol, all around excellence.

    Highly recommended.

    Schooldays HQ [18+ Extreme Content/Guro]: (School drama)

    TBH I only played this one because the Badend's are legend among the VN community. However it stands on it's own with unique semi-animated scenes and it got me into it's story.

    The famous badend's are surprisingly hard to get without a guide, you have to be a really specific type of jerk to get them.

    I use the term badend loosely here because even the best ending is fairly sad.

    The anime was entertaining and gave birth to the Nice Boat meme. It's finale was dark and was a unique badend somehow more shocking than the game despite being cut for TV.

    Recommended.

    [Honorable Mention]

    Fate/Stay Night [18+, PG version available]:

    I enjoyed the anime but the game was too much. I made it halfway through before I'd had enough.

    Look at this decision flowchat: http://www.scribd.com/doc/27635630/Fate-stay-night

    WTF!

    Recommended if you have some time to burn lol.

    EDIT: Deardrops was a bit weak but still entertaining.
