I think it's great that girls play eroge. Nuf said.

It's strange that it hasn't come up yet, but my favorites are a tsundere ojousama (preferably older and big breasted) and a cool and collected sempai who is troubled because she likes a younger guy (can be other older women) and goes deredere for him later on.

In general I like all tsundere heroines and I like lolis and osananajimi as well. There is a character which combines the best of both worlds (if you dont mind her being dere from the start) - Yoshino Sakura from Da Capo.

One of the assholes I hate most is Soma from Eien no Aselia – Kono Daichi no Hate de (Akitsuki Shun being a close second).

Following them in no specific order are: Xavier(Sengoku Rance), Chousen, Shinji, Matou Zouken, and any other character who raped or tried to rape a heroine(or side character female)

Well, thats everything that came to mind at the moment.

I agree with Haika. But there are still times when I would like to talk to someone about a really funny scene in an eroge, or which character you like best (anyone from protagonist to side character). You know, to enjoy a good laugh. I admit it's a fleeting feeling, but it doesn't go away that easily.

From what I wrote you must have figured it out, but I like to state the obvious so I'm gonna say it anyway: I do not have any friends whom I play eroge with (had to say concerning the main point of this thread)

I am really sorry. I did not notice that there was already a thread on this. I didnt check beforehand, so if I offended anyone I'm really sorry. You can just ignore this thread, I'll take down soon, on the other hand, since the thread lost its meaning, you can post random comments and stuff while its still up. Again sorry for doing something so stupid.

I'm starting this thread because I was really frustrated by quite a few endings in anime and manga. Like the times when it's obvious which girl the protag is gonna pick, for example Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, or non conclusive or indecisive endings like in Tenchi Muyo!

I really would like that the above anime would be made into eroge so I can chose who the protag ends up with, be it one, none, or all. I realize its just a fantasy, but every man (and occasional woman) needs his romance. In other words

KOREWA OTOKO NO ROMAN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So fell free to post your wishes (which are corespondent to this thread - I want a toilet seat out of solid gold, but I'm not stupid enough to actually say that HA-HA-HA-HA! ........ OH CRAP!).

On topic: That was a good story, cerxer1. As a fellow writer of long posts, I welcome you! It's interesting to hear peoples stories on how they got here. I wonder if all japanese entertainment and media leads to eroge in the end? Puzzling...

Thanks for the welcome. I also believe that sooner or later any path you take, whether it be anime, manga, or Japan in general you will end up at eroge. There is no escape, and lets be honest, who the hell would want to escape ?

P.S.: I'll be sending a friend request your way if you dont mind

You should see some of the other posts, long is an understatement (not that I'm complaining)

I entered eroge and VN through the anime The World God Only Knows. Keima was playing galge all the time so I thought id google galge. I came across a wikipedia entry entailing a lot of VN and eroge titles. I at first honestly thought that galge werent real. Imagine the joy and shock I felt when I found out that wasnt true. Well anyway, the first eroge I played was Cosplay Fetish Academy. I thought id be lame because I would only be reading text all the time and make an occasional decision but after 10 minutes I was completely sucked in. And the after another two eroges/VN I found out that a lot if anime are made after eroges. I immediately went to play Fate/Stay Night, Shuffle, TTT and so on. Before I knew it, I was drawn in to this beautiful, world mesmerized by the many wonderful translated VN. At some point I believe I became a seasoned eroge player (have been playing over 2 years). this realization dawned upon when I noticed was yelling, screaming and crying for the next translated eroge to come along.

Well, thats all I wanted to say, sorry I draged on so much, but those were fond memories worth reminiscing and sharing with you fellow gamers. If you need any tips on which eroges to play (which type you prefer - nukige, story, dark, love) fell free to ask (this applies mostly for beginners).
