Welcome to the General VN Discussion thread!

If you have something you'd like to talk about but don't think it's worth posting as a separate thread this is the place for you.

  • Did you start playing something new?
  • Are there any games you're looking forward to?
  • Are you looking for suggestions on what to play?
  • Do you have some feedback or questions about our community?

These and any other topics are welcome here - as long as they are VN or community related.

Currently Katawa Shoujo. It's a pretty good romance VN so far in a special school for disabled people. It's also free and open source. I specifically play a fork, which brings some additional features and improvements: https://www.fhs.sh/projects/ksre

I'm also planning on continuing with Umineko: When They Cry someday, I just left and then never came back to it a few months ago.

I posted on c/otomegames how I've finally managed to get a good ending (and unlock the secret route) in Vampire Knight DS!

Also, in order to support a very ambitious title like this, I gifted Hundred Line to a streamer friend and now look forward to watching them play it (since I won't have the time to play through the entire thing myself)

That's one way to catch up on your backlog. I heard a lot of crazy (but good) stuff about HL so it should be a fun experience.

Huh. I sorted by New and saw nothing, was this on the last Weekly thread?

I made a top-level post but marked it as NSFW to hide a CG spoiler. Maybe thats why you didn't see it?

That would absolutely be it, thank you. Now I can go read the post.

New month, new post.

Lets start with a short summary first:

  • The promised VN patch list is here! It's not too long yet but it's a start. I'm open to suggestions about what to add there so feel free to share any patches you know about.
  • I played the demo of "Save the Villainess" and wrote a short post about my experience. TL;DR: it's promising.
  • "Project Mix", a VR visual novel, has a kickstarter running for 12 more days. If any of you have a VR set I'd highly suggest you to try out the demo - it's kinda, sorta, a bit like a VR VA-11 Hall-A.

I'm hoping to play a few more demos this month as well as finally find some time for "of The Devil". I'm going to need A LOT of distractions in the near future so this is the perfect time to do it. I'll make sure to share my thoughts about those as well if any of them ends up interesting enough.

Finally, with pride month upon us I'm curious if any of you have any interesting VN titles touching on the topic - it doesn't have to be a major theme, any representation is welcome.

[email protected] oh project mix is on kickstarter?? Been meaning to try that one out! thanks for the heads up!!

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

It is! And it has a demo on Steam which is pretty promising. There was also talk about an updated one but there's no deadline on that yet.

I have heard about of the Devil, so excited for a potential review.

Nooo... the pressure! ( โ€ขฬแฏ…โ€ขฬ )
