  1. Edit: actually nvm, hopefully you'll just completely change your mind about it after you've finished the whole thing. If not... then I don't even know.
  2. MmmMmm yes, absolutely! Looked it up on VNDB before as well. Reeeeally nice to see it getting translated with all those juicy tags it's got... Mystery, horror, mind screw, madness, violence, etc. Yep, it's sweet alright. And it's using NVL (which is a plus for me) even though that tag is only at 1.0 right now. Oh and it's got superb ratings so far. Promising!
  3. That official website for the game sure is pretty awesome looking. Anyway, it'll be interesting to see how well they fare with sales and such, considering the removal of 18+ content. And also what they will decide to do later on.
  4. AMAZING! Like what the hell, that's so great and such a big surprise. Just, wow. So happy about this. I mean it's a surprise that it's even getting an official translation, right? But not only that - a release this month as well??? Woooohoooo! The VN (Kono Oozora ni, Tsubasa wo Hirogete) looks very good indeed of course. Always wanted to see it translated ever since I first saw it on VNDB.
  5. Well this is VERY subjective to say the least. No doubt about that. So here's just MY take on it: It's better than Higurashi on many levels, but not all. For one, I find Umineko to be less creepy than Higurashi. And I also personally prefer Hinamizawa to Rokkenjima as a general setting for the story. But like I said, that's very subjective anyway. There might be something more, but those are the only two things that comes to mind for me right now. Everything else? Umineko does better in my opinion. And that's kinda insane, isn't? Because I fucking love Higurashi, but Umineko is still EV
  6. NOOOOooooooooo! Haven't read any of these yet either! Shame on me. My guess is that I'd vote for S;G though if I had read all of these. Perhaps Clannad... but no, S;G is more my kind of VN. Really like the menu music for Nocturnal Illusion also (and I bet the VN as a whole is great of course).
  7. Woo, that's awesome that you liked it so much, really nice to see. And I'm glad you got to experience most of it in the best possible format - the VN series. Just like me! Here's a present! (the spoiler box in that post) ... just some Higurashi related stuff in there, hehe.
  8. Happy Birthday Chex!

  9. [spoiler=EP5]Fuck yea, Kuroneko screen time and an overall entertaining and interesting episode (probably the best one so far, yes). That date early on was fun and seeing more of Kuroneko/Shironeko was veeeeery sweet indeed.
  10. REALLY wondering what this is now... Anyway, nice progress and all (except for Baldr Sky :S). Grisaia getting done soon enough of course, which is just great, though I personally won't be reading it on release most likely anyway.
  11. Cooooool! Yes it's really good isn't it?? But yes it's actually a bit of a shame that you got "spoiled" by the anime on the first 2.5 arcs. Oh well, you still have a lot left to go. Many surprises await. Are you heavily attached to the characters yet? I hope so, 'cause they're awesome. The mysteries are still unsolved... [spoiler=Higurashi arcs 1-4] The Great Hinamizawan Disaster ("GHD")... Why did Keiichi survive the GHD?... Oyashiro-sama... The yearly murders... "Demon eyes"... People being dead and yet somehow still walking... Creepy behaviours (Rena, etc.)... "Flap flap flap", the
  12. Good luck. Enjoy the peaceful rural village life in Hinamizawa......
  13. Very well then...

     

    Well you can use whatever pace you want of course. Reading only during nighttime certainly makes it better though (for the early arcs specifically), but you could technically read it whenever you've got the time. It's up to you.

  14. Which is why the game comes with that setting ("Call Menu") already chosen in my pack. For every single arc. Yes, that's right. That's the reason the BGI.gdb file exists in all of those arc folders already when you unpack the game. Because I put it on "Call Menu" in the config screen for all of them. But since you messed with the unlocks and had to delete the BGI.gdb to reset them, that setting also got reset of course for 1-4. Default = hide textbox on right click *shrug*. Whatever the case, normally it won't be a problem because normally you won't have to delete the BGI.gdb. :p

     

    Hehe... It's okay to take it slow in Hinamizawa. Might as well enjoy those peaceful days.

  15. [spoiler=Umineko EP4]Gotta love these high res CGs... http://i.imgur.com/FOKvj2x.jpg
  16. From Higurashi: The frog in the well was happy. Because he wasn't interested in the outside world. The frog in the well was happy. Because he didn't have anything to do with the outside world. And you were happy too. Because you didn't know what happened outside the well.
  17. Nice that you liked Sharin a lot. So, gonna read the fandisc next then? Houzuki's route? You REALLY should, unless you need some kind of mental break now or something, that is.
  18. Easy choice for me (Higurashi Kai). Nipa-★
  19. For Higurashi, might I suggest that you use this: Higurashi - When They Cry COMPLETE All arcs (1-8), all patches, working. Fully updated as of - 20th of February 2013. part 1 - part 2 - part 3 - part 4 - part 5 - part 6 Check the readme. EDIT: Translation Patches - Tweaking Higurashi Wiki was fairly recently added to the Higurashi tweak site. I personally do not know how good/bad this patch is right now. Supposedly it fixes some grammar and spelling of the MangaGamer translation for the first 1-4 arcs of Higurashi. This patch is currently not in my pack of the game, so if y
  20. Yea don't worry, it's a great VN. A very long one (a plus for me at least). You may not like all of its parts, but overall it's still one of the better VNs you can get your hands on I'd say. It has Kotomine Kirei and Illya, so what the fuck.
  21. [spoiler=EP4]Whelp, nothing amazing or anything in EP4. But 'tis alright. Cute/funny at times. Once again not enough Kuroneko!
  22. No, you shouldn't. You have what's needed (the latest dx9 version). So the problem is unrelated to directx.
  23. That's because the game is only interested in dx9 and what version of it that you've got. It uses dx9 to run (which is the case for quite a lot of games tbh). It doesn't utilize dx11 in any way. And yes, you've got what's necessary on that front, so that's not the problem in any case.
