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.
You seem to have developed a much more positive opinion of them over time, Asaph.
Also why is there no Umineko in this thread? Why isn't there more Umineko discussion on this forum in general?
I've been wanting to try Ever17 for a long time. I might get it Friday.
Also, I'd like to make it clear I am aware Umineko is a 'sound' novel, I just don't consider it different from a visual novel in any significant way.
