Re: Recommend a VN

You know what I mean :c That'd actually be kinda cool, until you read all the good ones. After that you'd have to spend the rest of your days reading terrible eroge with tentacles and no plot whatsoever. :cry: Eh, I'll take those if I'm in the mood for 'em. :lol: *suddenly imagining Mystery Science...

Re: Recommend a VN

Riho's route would be the canon route, sure, but that differs from the true route. A true route (which you have already seen in Kira Kira) is where a new route is unlocked after all the other routes/the main route have/has been completed. Not to be mixed up with the forced route order, like in Hosh...

Re: Recommend a VN

VNs don't have true routes... Plenty of VNs have true routes. There is even a tag for it on VNDB: http://vndb.org/g181?fil=tagspoil-1.tag_inc-181.lang-en;m=1;o=d;s=rating Of course judging by the fact Deardrops and ef have it tagged, people clearly don't know how to use it. Does Deardrops not have ...

Re: Recommend a VN

Finished Deardrops, at long last. I did enjoy it much more than I did Kira Kira, but there were quite a few things I didn't like as well. I thought the Rimu and Yayoi arcs were a little insubstantial compared to the other two - although I actually enjoyed Yayoi's quite a bit. Rimu's arc was definite...

Re: Recommend a VN

Of course, like most VNs, there's a lot more to the story, most of which is revealed in the extra routes that are only unlocked after getting the 3 main "good" endings, although some of them seem to leave you worse off than some "bad" endings. Speaking of which, I recommend doin...

Re: Gamefaq's KS Critique

Hi! I know this thread is ooold, so yell at me if it's bad to reply, but I feel like doing so since it's somewhat personal (I'm the writer of the review). Just want to clear stuff up, since there seems to have been discussion about me personally. >_> Some things... -snip- Anyway... yah. Basically w...

Re: Recommend a VN

Go Planetarian if you want a feel of Key in an instant, Kanon if you have more time, and Clannad/Little Busters! if you have a heck load of free time as they are about 3-5x longer then KS Well, I'm going to be playing all of them eventually regardless. Though Kanon and Planetarian will probably com...

Re: Recommend a VN

So kind of the same deal as Muv-Luv, then? Is it worth the investment, I wonder. Yeah, it is usually likened to Muv-Luv Extra except you (apparently) don't need to play it to read the second and there is no real payoff. The second has very little to do with the plot of the first one apparently, it ...

From what I hear, the first Da Capo is meant to be terrible. The second is quite good though apparently.

Re: Recommend a VN

All down to opinion really. Personally I consider Mizuki's (or Kirimiya if you want) to be one of the worst routes I have read in a VN and just thought it was hours of mindless fucking, whereas I thought Aeka (Shiraki's) route was fine, and I know plenty of people out there hate Nekoko route. Ultim...

Re: Recommend a VN

Will do! Do the routes make more sense that way? It's less about a certain order making more sense than it is the Shiraki arc being one of the worst I've read in a VN thus far. When I played YMK, I completed Kirimiya's first (which I absolutely adored) - but then I made the mistake of playing Shira...

Re: Recommend a VN

Actually, Twilight seems like the kind of thing that would work better than the original if it was a VN. Well, if they took out the sparkly vampires. Maybe, but it's doubtful. Meyer's writing is so unapologetically trashy that it's way beyond salvaging into a VN. The only redeemable quality of the ...
