Sorry, i can't hear you, i'm too busy nanoboosting my dick.

It's not that hard. Besides, Garejei posted a translated version of the original walkthrough, if you're having trouble with obtaining all the bad endings.

>not an edgy teen angster hahaha, are we reading the same vn!?

The concept of 'native resolution' is unique to 2D pre-rendered 'static' art. Many people, especially on Steam, are used to 3D games where everything is rendered dynamically in real-time by the engine, so they don't understand why VNs can't be rendered at any resolution desired without loss in visual quality. In addition, it seems that higher resolution drastically increases production costs on detailed CG like you typically find in VNs.

Full screen when it's not too blurry. And always fullscreen on my 8" tablet obviously. And guys, I have the solotion multitasking/translating: Thats my setup xD (And yes thats also my badass pink chair and my wannabe wolf )

Naturally, high resolution art is always good, but as people have pointed out in the replies, not playing on native resolution will always cause some loss of image quality (albeit it'll be the smaller the closer your display resolution is to the game's resolution), so target resolution does matter. On the other hand, many people have expressed a strong preference for playing fullscreen or windowed for immersion or because they alt-tab a lot. The replies have been very helpful so far!

I hate when they store things there >_> You're welcome Derg!

Ah, awesome, thanks! They were under local, virtualstore. I only checked the main roaming folder. That was a sneaky little folder, lol.

Yes. You need to play through ALL endings to actually get the mini-stories under the TIPS section; those unlock bit by bit as you clear out the story and good/bad endings.

Welcome luziano Any favourite VNs? If you've got a vndb account you can slap it on your profile and people can judge you give you suggestions!

- Full screen all the way, even 640x480 titles. I don't care about slight blur, I can't fully immerse when the game is not the only thing at the screen. - Even if sometimes it's nice to have a window with VN and walkthrough open in Chrome righ alongside each other, I will never say that lower resolutions for window playing are better. - The only thing I trully hate is ratio changing. 4:3 should forever stay in 4:3 (untill it gets a full blown remake, from a scratch). No cropping, no streching [f-you, youtube VN-reading assholes].

Nemu's and Sakura's routes were probably the ones I liked the least, with Miharu's probably being the one I liked the most. Every other route was pretty decent, though they had a fair number of flaws each, and on different aspects too.

First time I made a thread in Recommendation, and I wonder if this is the right place or not. But I want to made this for a long time, so might I create it now. Sorry if I made some mistake here. Visual Novel localization right now was quite a boom, especially with many surge of all-ages release at Steam. And of course, there's bound to be some controversy in regard of originally 18+ VN released on Steam, especially in regard of H-Content cutting just like Moenovel case. Before Steam boon, there's also fan translation boom which we got many Visual Novel fan translated, especially Fate and G-Senjou for more famous one here. At fan translation boom we also had site like TL Wiki which host many translation project there. And finally the main topic here would be translated VN before fan translation boom. As we know, visual novel translation was already there for a long time. And we could trace it back to around 2000 or so if we look at VNDB in regard of VN translation. To be honest, most of classic translated VN were nukige, which to said it lightly had some controversy here although there's a good one like Sagara Family. As for the bonus, because I only recommended 10 VN, I'll add the VN opening video here. 10. Private Nurse (VNDB average score 6.49, Bayesian score 6.41) - G-Collection The premise was our protagonist here was suffering some kind of terminal disease that apparently more on psychological. In order to cure the protagonist sickness, his mom decided to hire a nurse with name Maria. Although Maria of course had good intention, apparently protagonist didn't trust her and watch Maria with some conflicting emotions. In regard of the title, it might be give some nukige vibe though, seeing as there's some porn that associates with nurse (By the way, I remember that in regard of Nurse Love Addiction our Decay tweeted that the title was something like AJ Tilley game title). The opening here was quite calming and soothing. 9. Figures of Happiness (VNDB average score 6.52, Bayesian score 6.43) - G-Collection Back at 8 years ago, I'd find that the opening song for this game was quite good. Anyway, the premise here our protagonist (Ryo) was already had the girlfriend. But he was approached by the spirit of the death girl who had some unfulfilled wish (Minamo). As the good guy there, Ryo decided to fulfill Minamo request there. Although the request was had some slightly bad consequence for Ryo, namely Ryo will wondering around as a spirit. From ther our Ryo was trying his best to help Minamo to fulfill her wish, while making his previous girlfriend grieving because Ryo's body was in comma. One last info, the main heroine for this VN here would be Minamo, although this is charage and of course you'll free to choose which girl you want to date here. 8. Brave Soul (VNDB average score 6.85, Bayesian score 6.77) - Peach Princess The premise here was like any old RPG to be honest. In fact the premise was very suitable for this VN because Brave Soul was more like RPG with some sex scene here and VN style story telling. I remember that back at 2007 I quite a little taken aback with the existence of H-RPG. Although back when around time it was released this game would be unique there, nowadays this would be appear just outdated because the gameplay was more like '90 RPG. In fact you could only control one people (Our protagonist) and let the other party member controlled by AI. The combat was only by clicking to enemy in order to attacking iirc. And for one more info, this is Sanahtlig favorite game. 7. Hourglass of Summer (VNDB Average Score 7.08, Bayesian Score 6.74) - Hirameki International Japanese name for this game was Nanatsuiro no Sunadokei. The premise here was our protagonist Koutarou fall in love at the first place with the popular girl from his school, Serizawa Kaho. And after so many thing happened to Koutarou, suddenly he found out that he was capable of doing time travelling and found out that he was already had the girlfriend and she was passed away because of the accident (By the way, Koutarou's girlfriend was Kaho). From there, Koutarou must doing everything that can to prevent his girlfriend death with help to Time Patrol Policewoman Lee Jane. In regard of seiyuu, this VN had Nana Mizuki who compared to her lover from Nanoha (I mean in regard of seiyuu that Nana Mizuki play Fate and Yukari Tamura play Nanoha) she had much lesser role in VN. Additional note - This VN had run on very stupid system with the name DVD Player. The problem with that is it was very complicated to made it play on PC, and of course most people nowadays should be had PC instead of DVD Player ie DVD Player was already obsolete technology there. 6. Snow Sakura (Yukizakura) (VNDB Average Score 7.08, Bayesian score 7.04) - G-Collection The premise for this classic charage was our protagonist Yuuji was stay at Hokkaido with his uncle while his father had some business trip at Hawaii. At Hokkaido he was reunited with his tsundere cousin Saki and of course he also attend the school at Hokkaido. The interesting heroine here would be Hiyama Kozue who her attitude and appearance should remind us with Daidouji Tomoyo from Cardcaptor Sakura fame. Oh, and we also had some sort of main heroine here just like Koichoco and Yoake, Souya Misaki (Who voiced by Rina Satou). By the way this is not a part of Sakura series by Winged Cloud. 5. Princess Waltz (VNDB Average Score 7.10, Bayesian score 7.07) - Peach Princess This VN had reputation for had the main heroine copying Saber of Fate fame. The premise here our protagonist Arata was dragged to some sort of royale battle which involved 6 princesses in order to had the right to became the prince's wife (Or future queen of some fantasy country). Arata was dragged there because his new friend Chris was supposed prince there, and therefore there's a chance that Arata will be dragged. Or to be exact he was already involved in the battle royale because he was somehow turned into one of the princesses after linking hand with Chris. This VN had the card battle gameplay, although it was not as good as Soukoku no Arterial here ie only involving number (Although it was quite addictive though). The main draw for this VN here should be the assistant writer himself Higashide Yuuichiro which as we recall the main writer of Ayakashibito and Tokyo Babel (Forgot to said that this VN premise was like Fate Stay Night, and Higashide was also Fate writer iirc). Oh, and the developer for Princess Waltz was Pulltop, which mean that this is their first attempt going west (Their 2nd attempt was controversial Konosora translation by Moenovel). 4. Family Project (Kazoku Keikaku) (VNDB Average score 7.34, Bayesian score 7.28) - G-Collection The best VN back at 2007 iirc, and written by Tanaka Romeo. The premise is there's some people (Obviously mostly woman here) who had some sort of trouble that wouldn't allow them to be at their house, and decided to find a home in order to live together by helping each other. The problem that the refugee face was quite heavy, although the most obvious one here would be mafia problem there. 3. Crescendo (VNDB Average score 7.43, Bayesian score 7.37) - G-Collection First info that I would remember in regard of this would be there's some rumor that the composer for Crescendo here was Scott Joplin here (Of course I knew that the OST was probably inspired by Scott Joplin or remix it like back in G-Senjou). The premise here is like the protagonist here was almost graduating from high school, and he was having many flashback from high school year, especially in regard of his relationship with many woman. 2. Kana Imouto (VNDB Average score 7.56, Bayesian score 7.50) - G-Collection Quite controversial VN if I must said, especially with so much focus in regard of intimate relationship with blood sisters back at the time when it's release (Although it's quite normal though if we looking at VN like Grisaia and Soukoku no Arterial if we talking about relationship with blood related sister). Okay, as for the premise our protagonist Taka must take care of his terminally ill sister Kana. And of course as any VN with ill girl tell us, the ending for this VN might be either depressive or bittersweet here. For more info, Kana also written by Tanaka Romeo here and JAST released translated version for the remake here. For the opening video, I'll using PSP version here. 1. Phantom of Inferno (VNDB Average Score 7.99, Bayesian score 7.79) - Hirameki International This VN was written by Gen Urobochi, and the premise was very unusual here, because we had protagonist kidnapped after he became eyewitness of some murder and he was trained to became an assassin. In training, the protagonist was given a code name Zwei. And since Urobochi write this, you better expect that the story of Phantom here will be dark. Although this is the highest score VN here, the translated version suffered from some bad translation and more importantly some Hirameki founder apparently got some stupid idea to release this in DVD player format, which of course had same problem as Hourglass of Summer earlier. Although DVD player format might be seen as advance back in 2003, nowadays it's very obsolete since once gain most people would using PC to play DVD instead of using DVD player here. And since finding the opening for old PC version was quite hard, I'll using XBOX 360 version instead. Oh, and this is the first translated Nitroplus games here. That's all for some recommendation VN here, and once again sorry if I made some mistake in regard of info here. Feel free to correct me if I had some detail wrong, and hope it'll help to some people who want nostalgic VN here.
