Cross

Nope^^ He is pretty cool, but the real hero of Sharin no Kuni is Houzuki: I haven't played G Senjou yet, but I'm looking forward to it. As for the spoilers I always make the first sentence a spoiler warning, if somebody misses that, he'll probably won't read the text anyway.

Three Remarkable Protagonists – Part 1 By Cross (Beware of spoilers for Wanko to Kurasou) The primarily function of a protagonist in a Visual Novel is to be the avatar of the reader. Protagonists are our connection between the fictional world and reality, like ambassadors to the 2nd dimension. While immersing ourselves in the story parts of our consciousness and personality merge with those fictional characters to interact with the in-game universe. Unfortunately many protagonists are badly written losers or irrational lunatics, far away from compelling characters, but during

Saya no Uta is actually the most romantic VN I know.

Arcueid from Tsukihime is a lovable, naive airhead and a homicidal vampire at the same time. Trust me, you'll love her, too.

still Gar for Houzuki

Real Imouto ga Iru There can never be enough sister-routes.

Sharin no Kuni The game is really popular with the fans, so I cut the praising. Just take a look at this picture: I'm not gay, but if this guy would have a yaoi-route I would play it instantly. Houzuki is the baddest badass of all the VNs I played this far.

true dat aaaaaaaaaaaaa

That's one fine slice of life game, I enjoyed it pretty much.

Discovered 10 minute ago in my current playthrough. This brings me to a great idea for this thread: post a picture of your favorite crying scene!

Of course real life is a completely different matter. A real crying girl (if she doesn't abuse it) has problems that shouldn't be used for one's entertainment. That's why I love art. In fiction we get the good stuff without worrying for the crap that reality throws in our faces.

I never understood this logic. "Hey, let's start with the garbage, after that i'm motivated for the good stuff!" When I start with a bad route the risk that I don't like the game at all is high. When you start with Ciel you won't appreciate Arcueid as much due to all the repetitions. And that would be really,really sad...

Start with Arcueid. Her route is in my top 5 of BEST ROUTES EVAR. Ciel is kinda boring and Akiha is one of the few sister-characters I didn't like.

Weak girls are usually the best in VNs, but I agree that when a strong heroine cries it is even more beautiful.

She may be just a cousin, but the overall atmosphere is very Imouto-like. ("Onii-chan!") Incest or not - the route is still crap

That's quite the idea...nah, I couldn't enjoy such a scene with a jerk-protagonist.

Man, that's quite cold-hearted^^ It seems that large parts of the fandom hates either Sekai or Kotonaha, but I don't understand why.

You can only get the Fate ending OR 15 bad ends along the way...

The joke was a bit mean, but I couldn't resist, sorry^^ I'm not a native speaker myself, so I know it's difficult. Please don't let it get you down, I didn't mean it as an insult.

Sexy Sadness By Cross Let your tears come. Let them water your soul. Eileen Mayhew I’m currently playing Sharin no Kuni. In the first climax of the 2nd chapter Sachi gets a present that reminds her of her painful past. She gets angry and insults her cute Loli-roommate. Shortly after, Sachi deeply regrets her actions and starts to cry. After dealing with this heavy Moe-impact I remembered other VNs with similar scenes. And I realized that I discovered one of the most successful tropes of VNs… Crying girls are cute. Tears are like an invitation for hugs and kisses. Wi

No offense, my friend, but this looks like it was written by a machine translator^^. That's why I better wait for a real translation, lol:o

I'm afraid of stuff like: 私はかなりあなたの家のようになりました犬しています I have been dogs in your home now fairly;)

This game is ridiculously long. I needed 30 hours for the Fate-route alone (and I enjoyed every minute of it (well, except for the 1st H-Scene (I mean, what the Fk, Nasu????)))

I know, I read One and Kanon, too. A H-Scene is still an important milestone in the relationship of an Eroge-couple!

Yeah, I know you are right. It's still hard to see a project you wait to be finished to advance so slowly. I guess I will restrict myself to complain about Jast and Mangagamer: Where's the Deardrops-fandisc and Chou Dengeky Stryker??1!??!?! ^^
