Cosmiccathorse 10 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Just finished Little Busters! I've got withdrawal symptoms and need recommendations for something similar and FULLY PATCHED if possible please. p's finished Clannad already:) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sanahtlig 10 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) Kanon, Rewrite, Planetarian, and Tomoyo After? Key is one of the few companies with most of its games fan-translated. It's good to be a Key fan I suppose. Edited April 24, 2013 by sanahtlig Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Harlequin 17 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) Besides the other Key titles though... hmmm... Well I haven't even read Little Busters myself so I don't know exactly how lighthearted or dramatic it is in general, but here are a few more translated VNs with some combination of romance/nakige/drama/comedy/school life: ef - a fairy tale of the two. Hoshizora no Memoria -Wish upon a Shooting Star- Sharin no Kuni, Himawari no Shoujo Sharin no Kuni, Yuukyuu no Shounenshoujo Katawa Shoujo Edelweiss Edelweiss Eiden Fantasia Higurashi no Naku Koro ni - has at least that big 3.0 Friendship tag (and it has that for a GOOD REASON) just like Little Busters, plus school life comedy and maybe some other stuff!... ... Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai NOT saying these are all reeeeeeally similar or whatever. I wouldn't 100% for sure know if they are myself. But at the very least they DO share some of the same elements that Little Busters has, so you might just get some similar feelings from them. And I just wanted to present more options anyway, hehe. There are some more worth mentioning with nakige and stuff like that, but the above ones are a few of the titles that I've personally read.

OneManArmy 82 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) Is there an Eroge similar to Little Busters! ? I know that I'm saying this every fucking time but it's really hard to give some helpful recommendations if we don't know which parts of the game you enjoyed. I suppose you mean the humor and easy going atmosphere combined with some drama. Sharin no Kuni, Himawari no Shoujo I wouldn't recommend SnK because the game has very serious parts. The humor was great though. ... Ah fuck this. Everybody should play SnK. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Not sure if Higurashi with its "specific parts" is the right game for someone who enjoyed LB! ef - a fairy tale of the two. Hoshizora no Memoria -Wish upon a Shooting Star- Katawa Shoujo Edelweiss Edelweiss Eiden Fantasia Clannad - probably the game which is most similiar to LB (its translation quality is sadly kinda weak) Osananajimi wa Daitouryou ~My girlfriend is the President.~ - 100% humor and 0% sense Canvas 2 ~Akane Iro no Palette~ - typical school life romance drama thingy game (in short TSLRDTG) D.C. II ~Da Capo II~ - TSLRDTG Yukizakura - TSLRDTG Hinatabokko - TSLRDTG Kira - slice of life but you may like it Edited April 24, 2013 by OneManArmy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pramit 22 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I've got withdrawal symptoms i just finished rewrite. Not even the oppai ending can cure my intense sentimentality. *sob* OPPAI BANZAI Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cosmiccathorse 10 Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 Thank you everyone for their opinions and suggestions! I loved everything about Little Busters, the mini games, the humor, the friendships the heartache and the tremendous story and plot twist mystery at the end. I shall look at these one by one, I Know Higurashi can have horror elements, but I still wanna try it. x Quote Link to post Share on other sites
desi 53 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I Know Higurashi can have horror elements, but I still wanna try it. x Just remember: if the hamfists creep you out, you can always use the PS2 patch to make it have Ps2 art. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cosmiccathorse 10 Posted April 25, 2013 Author Share Posted April 25, 2013 Just remember: if the hamfists creep you out, you can always use the PS2 patch to make it have Ps2 art. I might just do that;) Thanks for the tip Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kirai Aizuren 10 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 well, that art is more scarier than the story.. xD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Onee-sama 10 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Well, I guess if we're going humor-wise and some seriousness AND sadness (ma?), I would recommend G-Senjou no Maou. No. It's not by Key, but it was one of the games that just popped in my head after reading your question. Also, since you finished Clannad, maybe play Tomoyo After?

Guess I'm onto my next recommendation - Wish upon a star was it? =P Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Helvetica Standard 17 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I would never, for dear life recommend any Edelweiss game. Just.. don't touch it, both of them. A good recomendation if you liked LB... hmm Have you played "Yuki Sakura" (Snow Sakura) Try that one out. It has humour, romance and mild drama. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chocolatemilkgod 16 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) Tried Rewrite but is it sad to say that I got bored of the text heaviness of it How far into it did you get, and which route did you play? 'Cause if you played Chihaya's route then, that might explain where the lacklustre feelings came from; I suggest you try it again at a later date, maybe? Up to you (play Lucia's route Has anyone suggested Ever17 yet? One of my personal favourites, and the build up to the true route is stupendous; it's sort of a sci-fi/mystery VN. My only advice is to use the skip button liberally, and to not be afraid to quickly skim read through similar text that you've read before. I'm recommending it on the basis that you liked the story and plot devices of LB where [spoiler=LB Spoiler]the secret of the world was slowly revealed leading up to the true route; Ever17 uses similar devices to portray its (very cool) story Edited May 7, 2013 by Chocolatemilkgod Quote Link to post Share on other sites
