animaker9 10 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 This is my first thread here so I hope it goes without trouble:p When I get into a VN or eroge I tend to promise to clear all the routes, unlock all the CGs, scenes, music and extras, sometimes I do it, sometimes I just clear the routs but not all the unlockables and, mostly when I find another game, I just sweep through the routes that I like an leave the rest for later. So, what's your philosophy on eroges? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SaruDa 11 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 These days I just get 100% cg and call it a day. I figure there shouldn't be any significant plot points that are easy to miss and not accompanied by a cg. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryu 15 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Same here, I always try to complete 100% but if there is an heroine I really hate, I just pass through. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Olaf 10 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Clear all routes. 100% game completion freak. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maths debater 10 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Clear all routes. 100% game completion freak. @Olaf : Did you apply that theory to the Fallout games? Then you sir deserve a medal, I gave up after putting in 80 hours into Fallout new vegas and all its DLC's. Anyways back on topic, I was originally a completionist but over time got flooded by the amount of titles and become a pragmatist. I target the main heroine/true end and if i like the game do the rest otherwise drop it and move on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I agree so many eroge to DL and play... well i change between them sometimes, this works wonders for me. Still have Yamamoto Isoroku route on 5star game to complete anyway.

maths debater 10 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Switching between VN's naturally leads to the problem of me leaving them behind. List of unfinished VN's: Ef - a fairytale of the two My girlfriend is the president Canvas 2 Sharin no Kuni fan disc Katawa Shoujo Quartett! Crescendo Discipline: record of a crusade Bible black (never reading that again) One day I'll clear out my backlog Quote Link to post Share on other sites
erogeking 15 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 i only play the routes i want to play i don't see any point in getting 100% for the sake of getting 100% Quote Link to post Share on other sites
superBlast 10 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I just try to go for all the routes so I can see all of the stories in the game and that's it (though I fail at that lol). Idc much about unlockables much. To be honest there is only one game I ever got 100% everything on because I got so into the game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slasherturtle 11 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Trying to read everything so as not to create a backlog. But, I can't help but want to play other games as well. Mostly just aim for 100% completion and then finish the game at a later date. Takes more time but I dont get bored of the game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Caelistas 12 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Clear all the routes, i can't stand to leave a VN unfinished without 100% CG unlocks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chaosiss 10 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 me will clear all the routes for the cg, if there is a route that i don't like i don't read it just skip it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OneManArmy 82 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I only play the routes which I'm interested in. If I can't stand the heroine then I won't play her route. I don't see the sense in reading stuff I don't like just for getting 100%. Call it blasphemy but even if I only played one route the game is still finished for me.

GingaSenshi 10 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I always unlock all the available cgs and scenes whenever i play a VN. However depending on how much I liked the VN i might skip some of the text/plot just to get to the cg/scene Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KuroReishin 10 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I usually play for 100% completion (even the bad ends like in FSN and Tsuikihime). But sometimes, I skipped some routes like in Canvas 2 (I skipped the little sister's route because she's annoying as fuck). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Exsilon 15 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I would try to finish the game without any guide or anything for the first time The answer I gave came from "What I would said if I am in the situation" after that with success or not I might look for a Faq Did I have to clear all the character routes? no quite If they are interesting than I would try to, If not I will just get my most favourite one and moved to another VN still I might come back for other route, sometime later Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shunrei 10 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 clear everything is my dream, but sometimes it's just impossible, it's just like what i am now, trying to beat a certain boss in MGQ hard mode and fail for about, 19 times.. well people has right to be selfish i think Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Melancholic 10 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I will always clear everything eventually, but I take long breaks between routes to prevent myself from getting bored with the novel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RJei 12 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I just play through the story, and whatever ending I get that's that. But often I replay and check out other endings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Danisco 10 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 for me clear all Route, Unlock all CG, must unlock the extra too if have it... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Avenger 11 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I'd like to do 100%, but after going through one route (usually the girl I like the most, though I'll also do the main heroine if it's a different person) I know most of the story, and I find it annoying knowing things the characters haven't found out yet, and I'm not really the type to skip through everything to the CGs, since I do like to know the little bits of story that are different. There are a few eroges that I do play 100% through though, or close enough, if they have a good replayable story. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ShrikeRisen 10 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Honestly, I always try to get 100% on each game, but sometimes work or other circumstances will happen after I've captured a girl or two that makes me leave the game for a few months. Yeah, it's sad, but the Real always tries to drag us away. :/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nobu 12 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I'm a newb, i like to go for 1 girl i like and just repeatedly rap- i mean "talk" 2 her. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder sometimes whether if you had a slav- i mean girlfriend would she be sane enough until 2015? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Maxar 13 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Same as erogeking.. I only play through the routes I like, and don't play through the ones I'm not interested in. It also tends to make me sad, that when I just finished the route I've been wanting to read, since I got the game, and then start a new one. 'cause if it was great, the great story I just read practically never happened if I read another route now... Call me weird -__- Quote Link to post Share on other sites
