So far trying to finish my visual novels within a day while juggling paperwork and other duties. Thinking of getting one route done within a week and now playing Da Capo III X-Rated. Hmm... that's all I can say for now.

 

[Kri]

Currently playing Appare tenka gomen,but it didnt meet my expectations for sure.im not saying its bad, but i was expecting something great,and its absolutely worse than koihime.well i will still finish it though,maybe it will get better when i entered a route.if there's someone who already played and could give some opinion about this (specially about routes) i'd greatly appreciate it.

 

[Animaksiat]

well... unlike koihime, tenka gomen don't have any particular routes... in the end you'll get to choose either eimi or yoshine!
though other route does exist! but only eimi and yoshine is the true end!

in matsuri, all other routes are combined with the true end! so it's a harem route!

 

[Terumi]

HAREM BANZAI~

[MENTION=7737]Animaksiat[/MENTION]; you ordered any of those games? Just asking.

 

[Animaksiat]

[MENTION=77]Terumi[/MENTION]; ja, i pre-ordered ailnauts, otome riron and debonosu new game

 

[unownHGSS]

Currently playing through Ever17 ^^
Only have 2 of the 11 possible endings so..still a long way to >_>

mm i guess something big happens at those 2 route so we have to accept those as true routes.maybe someone dying, or maybe mc becomes a important person like shogun.Anyway i will see it as i play them,first of all i have to finish Hasegawa & Shion & Sato though,those three seems best characters in the game and their walkthough pretty smiliar so they comes first.

Also thank you very much for teaching me about second game,i was going to play some july games before second game but an all combined harem route is something i cant refuse,it seems i have to delay Amairo Islenauts and others for a little bit.

The English patch for Grisaia no Kajitsu is out now! You can get it at tlwiki.org (if you already downloaded the game previously, like me) :D

 

[TentacleKitten]

Any visual novel translators out there?

I really want to Read Monobeno >:C

Translator yes, but not from Japanese to English, just from English to German ;P

 

[HatoriTakaya]

Translating Japanese to what people want is much more demanding than simply translating it to how you interpret it in your head. Well that's how I saw it when I was doing some scripts that was expected of me to go through it without a flaw and edit it as well. Since no one wanted to translate the literation (literal translations) into relative English that was demanded at the time. Rather not do it again .

 

[pixa]

i cant found anything insteresting on july's eroges, i guess i'll have previous eroge release to fill the month
any suggestion for me to play? something cliche like school life just fine :D

 

[Animaksiat]

^can't find!?? even though isle nauts and otsuriro are released!!?

those 2 are something to have! im not even regret bought those 2

 

[setuna1279]

How do you guys can evaluate an eroge whether it is good or not?

 

[Animaksiat]

^quite simple, first would be company... second would be illustrator... third would be story writer!
if 2 of the 3 option above you passed your own evaluation, then i doubt it'll be a kusoge.

well there's some minors factor too, like summary, genre, etc etc

 

[setuna1279]

But basing on those criteria, I thought July has a lot of good titles. But here, there are some complaints saying that July sucks.

 

[pumasrevenge]

Everyone likes other things. In my case, I don't care about the company, I mean, it's not unusual that a company you really are a fan of releases one or two eroges you don't like at all. Also there are too many new company's out there you never heard of ... and of these company's could have developed your new favourite eroge, who knows.

The graphics are also a reason you like it or not. I somehow put value on the graphics, but if the story is good or funny or what I know then it can have a worse graphic too.

Then we have the characters and the voices. Ok, nowadays you can turn off voices for each character separately (in more and more eroges at least) so there it's not that severe. But otherwise ... I sometimes skipped whole scenes in an eroge, whether it contained story relevant information or not. And then there are characters you really would like to kill (mostly protagonist's).

And the most important fact is the story/genre in my opinion. If I'm a fan of slice of life comedy and I totally hate fantasy, then I mostly won't like play an eroge with fantasy in it. I don't really have a genre I hate.

I prefer a funny eroge with a serious story (or at least one of them), whether it's fantasy or anything else. And I absolutely don't like bittersweet/bad endings.

 

[Animaksiat]

But basing on those criteria, I thought July has a lot of good titles. But here, there are some complaints saying that July sucks.

i wont bother with some minority complains! each people have different taste! and each decades, eroge's genre are changing! either you keep follow on the track, or stuck with your own fetishism! those who are complaining are the one that stuck with their own lust!

as puma's said company sure is not a big deal, what is important is the staff! also yes... seiyuu's factor are very fatal these days! i can see Kitami Rikka, Natsuno Koori, Agumion, and vehicle girl every month voicing eroge!

 

[Kri]

But basing on those criteria, I thought July has a lot of good titles. But here, there are some complaints saying that July sucks.

Well july is not best month for sure,but at least Cosmic Cute's Gleamgarden no Shoujo is "pretty" good (most likely best of the july), and Yuzusoft's Amairo IsleNauts is absolutely worth of playing if you like moeges.There is also Otome Riron which i havent played yet but heard pretty good things about it.Other than those three there is a couple of normal tier games too, instead of suck i'd say a so so month.



And about the question; well everyone has different tastes. if the question is about a game which i have played, of course it'd be based on my tastes. in fact i dont really care what does other people thinks about it, if i enyojed it i'd give a good score,if i didnt i wouldnt,pretty simple i guess.then whats the criteria of games which i'd enjoy? i never really thought it,but first of all i dont really like the grimdark games so gore or some pretty depressive games out of question for me.Of course some people might like it,im not saying those are bad and shouldn't played, just not for me.Other than it story progress ( or should i say character development?) is pretty important i guess.i just dont like games which dont have any development,i mean nothing has happened then suddenly the heroine in love with you just because you choose her choice doesnt satisfy me at all.At least make some event which would make her fall in love with mc.


But if the question is about the games which i havent played yet,i'd look at company first since i dont have very knowledge about staffs except some writer. If the company is one of i like,i would try it.Of course it doesnt guarantee its quality but at least makes it worth of trying.if its from a new company i'd just look genre & story & art, then decide that whatever going to play or not.Lastly i'd look some review blogs and some forums,if there is some game which i didnt get it yet but got good comments i'd try it too.


in short im not very picky about games which i will play,this why unfortunately my backlog always grow more.
