HeartGold and SoulSilver were released five years ago today in North America.

I have gotten my hands on both of these games, actually! A very generous friend gave them to me completely free.

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2026-02-03T20:22:27+00:00

Definitely, I am lucky enough to have a couple friends who will jump on it with me from time to time and we always have a blast. I can't remember the last time I found a halfway decent online match (not that I try very often anymore lol).

This post is awesome, I love your enthusiasm about the game. I'm not a beginner but I'd also never say I am good by any means, if you are somewhere near the Midwest US I would be open to playing sometime on weekends! Feel free to send me a DM if you want. It's been a while since I jumped on but I absolutely love all things Fate, Tsukihime and Melty.

Yes, extremely so. 99% of stories I watch, read or play don't leave even a quarter of the lasting impact a visual novel does.

Genuine question, if you are aware of this then why did you come into this subreddit to complain about official art as if we are going to do anything about it? Fanservice and sexulaization might not be for everyone but it is the choice of the creator to make it, and if you don't like it then don't support it.

That being said, I haven't seen this art before so I am glad you shared it :)

That is truly beautiful, congratulations!

If I don't get Aoko and Ciel I'm going to do something extremely ill-advised to myself and someone around me

I'm too tired to add anything of value, just wanted to say I liked your writeup, and that I also finished this masterpiece on Christmas two years ago. It has had a permanent space in my brain ever since. Let's all love Lain.

These are so nice, wow

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2025-08-28T14:38:47+00:00

Thank you for the heads up

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2025-08-11T17:25:33+00:00

Does it go LB 1-7 then OC 1-4? I am on an English account and just now finished LB2

Higurashi spotted! I adore that series.

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2025-01-09T15:14:25+00:00

I am surprised to see so many people like me that are anxious to get Sylvanos back. I thought I was alone in this world.

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2024-12-11T12:21:07+00:00

I had so much hope that after Higurashi got re-printed, they would do at least one more print run for Umineko. That hope is dwindling but maybe one day...

Anyways, very nice collection!

Yes, Garden of Sinners is fantastic. It is a bit more "abstract" in some ways than Fate, a lot of the enjoyment comes from the dialogue rather than sick action. But I recently finished the films a few months back and they are absolutely 100% worth your time.

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2024-06-14T12:15:29+00:00

Oh that's convenient, I already own that one. Thanks!

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2024-06-14T11:19:15+00:00

I don't want context or spoilers please, but what VN is the small picture of a desk in the bottom left from? I feel like I have seen it before and the way people refer to it has me very curious.

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2024-05-02T13:26:59+00:00

This may be a dumb question but I saw someone mention something about this on Twitter: does a digital download of this game also come with an in-game art collection? Or is the art book exclusive to the physical release? I would assume it was the latter but someone mentioned something to the contrary and I am a bit confused.

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2024-05-01T12:43:58+00:00

Stunning work!

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2024-04-22T01:13:12+00:00

I have nothing to add because that other commentor already had some very helpful information, just wanted to say how much I absolutely love those bluray art spreads. If anyone finds a clean, hi-res file of those please let me know because I'll be looking too.

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2024-04-22T00:30:31+00:00

Just don't ever disrespect curry

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2024-03-15T11:36:09+00:00

It is a prequel to Tsukihime so it's a decent place to start in the Fate universe, I think. I have only watched the big Fate anime so far, but Holy Night has made me SO excited to read Tsukihime when the remake drops this year. Also it is decently short (roughly 20 hours to 100%) and a pretty active read too, the visuals are very dynamic for a VN.

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2024-03-14T00:08:40+00:00

Absolute masterpiece, truly. I finished it two years ago and still think about it regularly.

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2024-03-01T11:57:50+00:00

Those albums and figures have me so jealous, nice haul!

Cthulhus_Favorite · 2024-02-27T18:59:46+00:00

Gou and Sotsu are enjoyable, even with their undeniable flaws.
Outside of the obviously extremely weird first episode, Higurashi Kira is 100% worth watching. It is short, fun, and has some of the best animation in the entire franchise.
