  1. Hmm, you swedish by any chance? Also, what browser are you using -- firefox, chrome, internet explorer, something else?
  2. Unless you want to make the link to display a name you picked yourself and not just the address ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_communication ) you can just copy that address into the post and it will automagically turn into a link when you post it.
  3. *Eroge includes rape simulators, etc. Bad term for entire vn type. *Games is incredibly unspecific. Additionally, some would argue that vns are not games at all; it's also an attempt to make the medium gain legitimacy in the west due to the association to (rape simulator or dating sims) eroge and nukige. *I just used some of the -ge parlance of the vn fandom. Hypocrisy? Maybe. It certainly is so much shorter to type, though, and generally understood by the vn fandom. *Terminology is even more spread than you mention. I've seen 妄想科学NVL for Chaos;Head, for example. In Steins;Gate, Daru calls CLANNAD a ノベルゲ, actually when okabe tells him to stop referencing eroge lol. If we want to use Japanese terms, we have a jumbled mess that encompasses things we do not consider VNs. Thus, visual novel is the best term, and the Japanese are wrong, not us. No, it's not a great name either (though I have seen musicless vns, like deiz (which was admittedly lol)). You can do a vn without sound, but take away the visuals and people will really complain most likely. tl;dr VN is the better term unless you are a weeaboo.
  4. Bad ends with emotional impact are good, though I really would prefer them to be a bit longer sometimes (for example fal bad end in symphonic rain was decent, but a bit short). Dead ends are good when funny like in f/sn (lol tigerdojo), however they can get annoying (aoishiro). "neutral ends" like in kanon where you go for no girl are pretty boring and might be better to have something else come up (lol kenji in katawa shoujo). The best bad end I can thing of is Hanako's in Katawa Shoujo. Holy fuck.
  5. I wish to share my pain, comrades. This transcript is slightly edited. <Zakaaeru> >can't find bluetooth mouse, begin search <Zakaaeru> >places where I put stuff are messy as fuck <Zakaaeru> >search entire house, move messy stuff around <ohiowar> maybe cleaning you house would help you find it <Zakaaeru> >pick up the thick layer of debree in my room for around 1h30,m <Zakaaeru> >notthere <Zakaaeru> *did find ATH-M50 carrying case in most unlikely spot ever* <Zakaaeru> >mom comes out of her bedroom from the noise <Zakaaeru> >ask if she knows where my bluetooth mouse is <Zakaaeru> >she comes back in 15 secs with mouse <Zakaaeru> >she thought it was her own <Zakaaeru> nvejiwnvhoudhy8bavidnwjancvduhohvuwaonvhdwasdf <hotsauce2000> lol <ohiowar> lol
  6. For the record, I have no idea why these guys keep posting when I've already picked the vn either.
  7. Aight, grisaia it is. Though nakuya probably counts for two, it is still not enough. Owells!
  8. zoira contain unrecommended retter care
  9. Unfounded, wicked Zakamutt took one cookie from mentioned jar.
  10. Simple. Won't make a poll because I want reasons. Do I pick little busters, higurashi, or grisaia as my next vn?
  11. This paradox on wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship_of_Theseus
  12. So I still haven't really found a true waifu candidate, as shown in my post in that thread long ago... Fuck it, let's go with KS!Hanako. --- I know my target, and i realize this will be extremely difficult to pull off. Her shyness, after all, is a very difficult barrier to get through. Don't look at the scars, don't look at the scars. Think. I've prepared for this moment. I can't lead her far, but I might be able to play with some things I know. She gets up. I swear my life goes into slow motion, right here. "Hi, can you help me?"
  13. Voted for all three of the non-other options. I recommend Symphonic Rain because I love it, then certain sets of vns depending on OP's qualifications, and I tailor all this to the post.
  14. Hmm, let's see. I'll start with saying that my ideal vn will probably be an OELVN. The reason for this is that it doesn't have to cate to japanese tastes and thus won't have as much moral dissonance with my views. We aren't there yet, but I can dream... Time to make shitty bullet points with multiple things in them! 1. Genre: Mystery. Probably trapped, time shenanigans, loops or similar. Add a threat of death, actual deaths... and stir. Ever17, 999 are good here but both have flaws. 2. The prose should be of high quality. VNs can work without this, but damn if it doesn't pull me in more. Think G-senjou, Saya no Uta translations but even better. 3. Graphics should use an original (if only to the vnsphere), distinctive style. It should still be pretty so no higurashi graphics plx. S;g does this decently well. 4. The system should not suck. Unlimited saves, good options, can be played on a faptop, made by someone actually competent... No real examples yet, everything sucks. 5. Choices should be decently obvious, routes shouldnt require lots of skipping to get to another. Fuck the phone trigger system in s;g... There should be a medium amount of choices. 6. Underlying thematic thread, which in the end says something about the condition of humanity. Saya no Uta is decent at this, but there are problems. 7. Delicious, delicious plot. It should not be completely dark; some comedy or more relaxing scenes can happen. 8. Memorable characters. 9. A non-stupid protagonist who is pragmatic, if still somewhat good.
  15. Oh noes, now it will be even harder to tell you from メルメルP
  16. Oooh, Umineko. I really need to start reading higurashi and umineko... Curse my slackness and the difficulty of getting kurisu route if you got mayuri before in s;g... So, did you read Ever17 / 999? Should be interesting as they are also mystery and stuff.
  17. tsun tsun dere tsun dere tsun tsun
  18. What's Elsword Oo. Also don't spam or the moderators will be disappointed with you And welcome to fuwanyan~
  19. I realize it's not a huge achievement, but SS with HD on on this map on hard was nice http://osu.ppy.sh/b/160055&m=0 Also I change my mind, it's clearly about your sis
  20. Lol american parties so much center of universe isidewith quiz Anyways I did do the second test quite some time ago, this were the results:
  21. Overwhelmed by Hachikuji's cuteness, I hatch an ingenious plan to kidnap her involving a van and various other clichéd implements. I am quickly captured by a strange combination of solid snake and batman who smashes the windshield after having climbed on top of my car (believe me, I have not a clue). He promptly knocks me out of thr driver's seat and stops the car while I'm still stunned from pure wtfness, then captures me with a very batman gadget. He introduces himself as solidbatman. After setting Hachikuji free, bats responsibly calls the police, who arrest me for kidnapping. Not long after I am placed in my cell, though, I feel a disturbance in the force. Ts3... is rumbling. This power... it flows through me, and with a roar I summon Steve, who screams "FOR THE LOLIS! FOR FB! FOR THE LOLIS! FOR FB!" as we (he) fight our way out.
  22. Kotomi still better
  23. I wonder, would it be a good idea for the patch, when properly applied, to edit like the intro screen? Like, Fuwanovel restoration patch v1.1 or something in the bottom right corner, like wc3 has version numbers...
  24. Boomer, do not worry. I will teach you the art of lurking; they will not find you.
