General Visual Novel Appreciation Thread

All Evils Of the World

I remember that one. Quite nice.

Ever-present feeling usually comes up when there are soon to be tears.

Wait, when did this turn into a FSN OST derail?

I like "sy" and "death(from stupefaction)" from Umineko.

Yo, 201, I’m really happy for you. But dai is one of the best composers of all time! One of the best VN musical directors of all time!

I love Brass Restoration. I really do. Come for Ryo's indescribably wonderful thought process, watch the drama, stay for the moe and HNNNNNNNNGGGGGG!

*boots up Saya No Uta*

...

I see what you meant about the importance of sound, now.

Soundtracks are everything important.

That aside, does anyone know where I can get translations for Summer Days? (the sequel VN to School Days)

The third installment, Cross Days, has also been released about 2 weeks ago.

Aren´t those the sequels that drop the violence and replace it with Child Pornography?

I don't know for Cross Days, but yes, Summer Days has a section where you can do Kokoro. Ew.

Just (well, a few hours back) got through my first porno section. At 60000 feet on a crowded airplane. Good choice of venue, I think.

Busy right now but Saya No Uta is pretty cool. Being a Nightmare Fetishist I thought at first that Funimori's condition would be cool, but it's really driving home how horrendous it is. And yeah more later maybe

I've just started Saya No Uta, and...

Just finished Aeka's route in Yume Miru Kusuri. bloody hell.

Just got Symphonic Rain. Anyone here played it?

And of course, it's a red link.

Reviews I've seen have related it to Ever17, but called it better.

Better than Ever17? Blasphemy.

Well, I guess I better play it before I say anything.

I'll start it this weekend.

Bah, I want a translated version of Really Really so bad T_T.

Oh yes indeed. Tick Tack works too, if only that you can actually manipulate Nerine's future there.

You know, there's a pretty comprehensive list of Visual Novels on The Visual Novel Database, including ones already translated into English or are in the process of being so.

There's enough to keep you entertained, even if the selection isn't great. It's a little frustrating though: how come Ef A Fairy Tale Of The Two isn't completed, but some random smut-heavy eroge is on commercial release?

I'm pretty sure there's really no English-speaking market for story-based V Ns. There's always a market for porn though.

Stupid Lowest Common Denominator...

Also, while I'm here, I'm going to pimp My Girlfriend Is The President.

And I've been trying to find a good site for Visual Novel reviews. I can't distinguish good games from bad with just a summary.

Y'all who've seen the Clannad anime should go play the Visual Novel.

It's on my "To Play" list.

I have more of an attention span for visual novels, so I might just play it instead of watch it.

For those that can actually manage to make it to bloody work, that is... >.<
