  1. The main reason I point out is length is because of how off putting it can be to newcomers. I explain it in the final paragraph. But thank you for the kind words! Well I agree that for a newcomer might be a bad thing specially if you add the complicated routing choices but again I think that's a common problem for most of the vns that have several routes and are long. It is something, I personally frown on in a VN. I like my story focused, and without all of the fat. Clannad does a good job of not making things feel like "fat" so to speak. Personally, I got mad before even clicking on the link. Good review! You thought more highly of it than I expected. To be perfectly honest, the text of the review reads even a little bit more positively than the score might indicate, but this could be due to a difference in scoring philosophies. Anyways, good work bats. It kind of comes down to how I weight things in my reviews. I disliked the ending, being the biggest factor, followed by some bad routes, followed by bad art. Endings are incredibly important to me.

  3. I can't even shit on anything (besides that fact that you're still using numeric scores like a tool), because I haven't actually finished Clannad yet. But don't worry, I'll be sure to return once I'm done with it. Then I'll gladly explain why I'm so much smarter than everyone else. Thank you for your incredible contribution to Fuwa Society.
  4. *See's solidbatman wrote review* *Scrolls down to the score ignoring the text* "solidbatman YOU SON OF A BITCH... oh wait" *Reads review* You too can read my Clannad review here
  5. Do key redemptions count as a sale on steam? If not, holy shit this game is selling incredibly well.
  6. Still salty about my LB! review?
  7. God dammit I'll write the thing tonight and send it off to editing tonight.
  8. I think total, the VN took me 45ish hours. Still stupidly long, but the people saying 100 are trying to justify the price.
  9. Quicker than that. Just need to skim a route or two to make sure they sucked as much as I remember
  10. Finally finally finally got my copy to work. Clannad FuwaReview coming ASAP
  11. I'm pretty sure we have to wait for the physical copy to arrive :< VA has your money already. You'll get em in a year or two
  12. Exclusive solidbatman review of Clannad Doesn't fucking work/10 Seriously, I got a pre-release copy about a week ago, and still have no fix from SP or VA. While the copy was free, it still is annoying to really want to review this game's definitive release, but only be able to review the old shitty Fan TL.
  13. I'll review you.
  14. Because its way better than Little Busters *cringe* I'm going to hire flutterz to edit every post I make on the forums from now on.
  15. Because its way better than Little Busters
  16. Another day, another good OELVN. This one from our favorite mouse, InvertMouse. Read the Cursed Sight review here
  17. I'm not going to put effort into writing a big blog like this if no one will read it. Piss off
  18. I am thinking of doing a blog on here, detailing my thoughts on various games I am playing, and wanted to know if anyone is interested in reading/viewing that (might be video impressions down the road).
  19. Recommend anything you like I remember that Brothers Conflict was nearly impossible to find subs for when it first was airing. Some anon on 4ch ended up subbing for a bit if memory serves.
  20. Is that so No valid string, make a ticket about it?
  21. I have my reasons for thinking the anime is better than the VN. Perhaps I'll go into them in a special blog post or something.
  22. Gonna be honest, with Clannad, Anime > VN
  23. Ren and Bats Stream Little Busters! as Bats takes a shot of whiskey every time stupid shit happens. Stream doesn't end until Bat's stomach has to be pumped and a liver transplant is required.
  24. Thats where reading the fan tl already will help. Afterstory is the main area I need to re-read. Considering it's an entirely new translation, with explanatory Dangopedia footnotes added throughout the text, I just sorta figured the whole thing would need to be re-read for the review. You know, for people who are curious how the new TL stacks up to the old FTL? Or is the plan to do a "first impressions" review on the 23rd, followed by a more comprehensive review later? Depends how big the improvements are, which I won't be able to get into until we figure out whats causing the issue.
  25. Let's see: Clannad releases in about 72 hours.Clannad takes somewhere between 70-100 hours to read, depending on whom you ask.Review copy isn't yet up and running.Hope you weren't planning on sleeping much. Thats where reading the fan tl already will help. Afterstory is the main area I need to re-read.
