Visual Novels Options

[Irysa]

What're your thoughts and inputs on them in general/what have you played?

Not "true" games? Inferior and dumbed down versions of adventure games? Atypically generic love stories for lonely virgins? Replacement of human contact for the socially inept?

Or maybe you had some GOOD things to say about them, hah.


I'm working on finishing Tsukihime and Ever17, both of which have been extremely bad. I gave up on trying to do F/SN altogether, and Yume Miru Kusuri.


Mostly I feel these significantly suffer from dialect and such being lost in translation along with the writing style not being particularly amazing in the first place. I've not seen any that really enhanced the experience significantly with their music or artwork, as I have a vivid imagination anyway. I'm still of the general opinion that most who do enjoy them a lot don't usually read normal books.

I enjoy visual novels :<
In FSN you just missed UBW, the greatest route ever.

In Ever 17, you haven't even been on Coco's path yet! You haven't seen why this thing is a masterpiece.

In Tsukihime, I don't know how you don't like the awesomeness of Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

I just skipped the h-scene for Tsukihime and Fate/Stay Night.

I'm still of the general opinion that most who do enjoy them a lot don't usually read normal books.

I disagree, I read a lot too but I don't know why you think that these 3 novels are just some generic love pairing thingies.

I played a lot of Visual Novels like Narcissu, Togainu No Chi and other stuff. I just play them since I like them. Just remember this Asaph, if Ever 17 will ever be turned into a manga or anime, it'll destroy the suspense of the story.
