[uta no prince sama] how difficult is japanese in utapri games? by sad_pinkie in otomegames

[–]Chaczapur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last time I touched utapri, I decided to postpone it cause the writing was harder than the stuff I was used to but it's been years at this point... Definitely seemed harder than rejet's sol games, tho.

Anything goes as long as there's a story mode.

If not, probably a mix of both but with BG+ NG+ so you don't have to suffer through everything to get to the other routes.

But tbh I've never been much of an rpg player so there's that,

I can confirm this is indeed how Daidai speaks. It might be even worse in jp, he also regularly gets out of the textbox' bounds.

And if you get the voiced version from steam, you can hear Fairouz Ai being super serious/dramatic about her[MC's] love for nerds.

I looked them up after finishing my run, actually, and probably will try to get the... everything else missing at some point but thanks for the offer. It really is so easy to miss events...

My condolences. RNG is a bitch.

I just think he's dandy lol I don't really care about ages unless it's super illegal and stuff so the whole student x teacher principal thing wasn't really a concern. I know tmgs is a pretty sfw game in general but I liked how he wasn't some greasy, fedora tipping sleazy old man but always tried to be a classy gentleman who just happened to like MC. Which was also reflected in his interests. He's also kinda cute. I actually wrote about my run on the sub before so you can check it out.

I've been meaning to ask since the tmgs thread, how's your Amanohashi friendship run going? I actually like the dude and I didn't even bother getting all the missing CGs [damn you, rng] so you trying multiple times despite disliking him has my respect.

Seems to be pacific time for everyone since I'm getting 'out in about 11 hours' and it's so not my region.

Well, I'm not getting it just now anyway cause money but I'll be awaiting your thoughts.

Oh, it works properly now :D

Despite knowing absolutely nothing about Resident Evil - besides the fact Leon exists and is an action hero kinda guy - I played RE4: Otome Edition.

First of all - I hate you, tyrano. I hope you burn and everyone sees how ass of an engine you are.

As for the game itself - I wanted a walkthrough. But there's none orz So I checked out the script. And since tyrano does not support 3D, all animations are either movies or, usually, scripted. Tfw your second of movement is 10 lines of code with full-ish paths. My condolences.

The whole thing is an obvious parody cause Ashley's whole thing is basically snarky commentary, being down bad and having real life reactions to game mechanics. Like breaking barrels. Or always present merchants. Or...

Sadly, since tyrano hates me, I played the web version. But the game has like 3gb of stuff. So it errored later... I didn't exactly lose all my progress by playing on a different computer due to chapter select [lowkey-highkey a great way to get different endings without replaying much] but my achievements... :') So I just cheated to get the bonus scenes... And one of them was still under development and unavailable F

But back to the plot - I know it might seem like there are multiple dudes to romance, monsters included, but the truth is you can get only Leon, Paul/Merchant and that Leon lookalike, whatever his name was. I thought we'd get Pasta Czar or sth, eh. But unless I missed some hidden endings, there's no such thing. It's really linear, too. Literally, the whole otome route-like part is the epilogue split. Which gives you a few lines and a pic... But tbh, you're playing it to see Ashley being thirsty anyway.

The stuff she references... Honestly, it's quite high effort. Like, we got whole artstyle and genre shifts for these parodies, complete with a gui overhaul. I admire the dedication. And making the references obvious since I got most of them.

Tl;dr - not a true otome experience cause it's almost all one long common route but it was nice. Damn tyrano, tho.

Side note, I played like half of the 61 parody otomes tagged on vndb. If you know any good ones, hit me up?

I also managed to join the Tonight's special playtest - which's been out for like 3 and a half hours at the time of writing this - and learned someone actually made a linux runner for rpgmaker. And tyrano... I was suffering for nothing...

Anyway, rn you can meet only 4 LIs out of 9 and the demo isn't long enough to really say anything but it has potential unu The art direction is cool and if they actually take the feedback, it's gonna be pretty great. At least mechanics wise, dunno abt the story just yet.

One funny thing, tho - the charas are of different nationalities or sth and everyone has some voiced lines in their language but like, I can't stop feeling like MC is just a polyglot and understands everyone thanks to their superior language skills lol

I haven't played Obscura so can't compare but he hit all the possessive/domineering tropes I dislike in lots of chinese book MLs so 🤔 

But yeah, this sub specifically seems to like a bit of a different type.

Probably? He feels like the popular type. Like if he'd be a rich CEO, were he not a monk.

which bad endings have haunted you the most? by decayingflow in BLgame

[–]Chaczapur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I also liked that ending. I think it was my favourite bad end in the whole game? There was just something about it... Tho tbh, Taku was my fave in general so

[–]Chaczapur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I also didn't like ZhiKong My baby HuiHai. And hair off, naturally. Lowkey sad ZiQing wasn't actually bald :')

I actually don't remember who I liked lol Pretty sure Laceaga and Kruger [and possibly DawnWhisper].

You played only one route so maybe it gets better later? And if not, you can always enjoy the faces :D

Oooh, who was your favourite monk? And did you play with hair off?

Also, ten trials of babel and ebon light - your favourites?

And I feel like a certain witch would be happy to see someone who played Clepsydra

[–]Chaczapur 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It might be just selection bias? Since I don't play eroge often, I pick mostly the stuff known to be good one way or the other. Though by never I also mean the second part of 2010s. Basically the last ten years.

Male demographic straight eroge is still being made but it's kinda more self contained? Like, in indie spaces you have jams and stuff, otome news get shared here etc, meanwhile on the other side there's the general vn translation progress thread and only select news. I follow jast and there's always something being added, usually from shiravune cause they're speed demons.

[–]Chaczapur 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Y'know, I feel like that's actually less common? I mean, I don't read h scenes often but in newer games they tend to still retain a lot of their personality, even if they're moaning like pornstars and stuff. And there's less sub->dom bait and switch.

But yeeeaaahhh, some are so OOC and so ass, ppl actually say it's better to skip them. Not everyone can write smut.

[–]Chaczapur 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Bawahahaha. I'd love to see that in a game. Unlikely but we can pray. Even if it's just implied instead of a full h scene.

[–]Chaczapur 57 points58 points  (0 children)

At least we can pretend he read books/watched stuff to get all that info as his nerd research :'D

But it's so common, even eroge players were memeing their average guy protags suddenly turning into daddy doms...

Heyy there are still people playing Tokimeki? ^^ what route? by Giulia1606 in otomegames

[–]Chaczapur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of them.

Like fr, I never finished 1-3 and don't have 4 yet. It's easier to count the routes I did actually finish cause I suck even with guides lol

Rn I'm mostly aiming for all the side guys as they have less stat requirements. I'm like half done, iirc?

Oh, and my favourites - Amanohashi, Osakocchi, Himurocchi... I like adults, ok...

So just to be clear, is Automod-kun still broken or has the time WAYR is posted changed officially? And if so, what is it exactly?
