stop saying h.  just call it a sex scene.  good lord


can anyone play this and tell me if it's okay (i.e. is it entertaining, is the subject matter treated well, etc)?  i can't really download any big files right now and i've never played these types of games but it sounds interesting enough, i don't know

Not played this and file size is too big right now will download tonight and let you know what I think. Looks good though.

oh, and h is quicker to type lol

I remember the PSX Star Ocean game had some dating sim elements.  It was more like individual moments with team members, but I think eventually you could have a love triangle deal going on.  Your relationship with other characters affected battles as well, I think.
keep posting...

I played Katawa Shoujo, first OELVN and came from 4chan. It's pretty good you know since it was well written specially from the fact it came from 4chan. It's generic school type thing but very professionally made.

Also Ever17 and Umineko. I cannot stress this enough. Just play those freaking two games to completion and tell me if Visual Novels suck. Ever17 is awesome. I am not joking. I made a VN hater love VNs because of it and don't think of getting yourself spoiled unless you guys want to have anti-zen since it won't make sense and destroy the whole plot of the game :|

I think visual novels and dating games need to be separated because you can hate dating games and still like visual novels (this is me)


in fact i'm pretty sure all the negativity in this topic was towards JUST dating games

They are different. Visual Novels like Narcissu doesn't even have dating sim elements. but at the same time Fate/Stay Night has dating sim reference but it's still a visual novel because basically you can't even woo the other 2 girls without getting Saber's route first. Ever17 isn't even a dating sim since no matter what in the end,

Visual Novel = Different Endings and paths or Just a book
Dating Sim = get any girl you want without any direct storyline to follow e.g. the games in newgrounds dating sim.

This topic is about dating sims though, this:

Quote
Dating sims/visual novels are very similer if you cant play this for 10 mins then you might as well discard manga as well, books too. Try actully playing it before judging. If you tryed it and didn't like it, fair enough it's not for you.

was pretty much just a cheap connection between the two in order to try to justify it (it was basically like saying YOU DON'T LIKE CHEESY ROMANCE NOVELS?  WHY DO YOU EVEN READ THEN, THEY'RE BOTH BOOKS)

no one in this topic was anti-visual novels just anti-dating games, you yourself have nothing to defend here

Actually the Japanese government basically banned all sexual deviancy in games a month or two ago. I think it applies to movies, books, etc too.
I might be wrong let me see if I can find articles

(note: I will not actually look for articles)
don't mind me, just postin' after a few brewskies
