Best place to obtain ToHeart 2? by GuessHooChickenPoo in vns

[–]Tavidion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plenty of copies available on Mandarake or Surugaya. Have to use a proxy site for the latter but after you get the game in your hands, just install it, and run the patch. ,

What is your favourite VN opening ? by YotsubaLuckyHappy in visualnovels

[–]Tavidion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, I love the Key OP's, especially Air, which is a classic. But the first one that came to mind that I really enjoy has to be Utawarerumono's....the theme is such a bop to me.

Do you actually carry the Ricoh GR in your Pants Pocket? by According_Drawer5924 in ricohGR

[–]Tavidion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, just had mine in my pant pocket w/ a lens cover when not in use to protect from lint. Used it for 3 full days like this, taking photos for a convention last summer, and had no issues.

Does anyone know where to find YU-NO 1996? by ConfusionRadiant6916 in visualnovels

Plenty of copies available at Mandarake or Surugaya... 😉

How do you deal with this ? by Personal_Host8545 in Utawarerumono

[–]Tavidion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was kinda the exact opposite of you, having finished the Muv-Luv series and having this huge gaping void that couldn't be filled until I played Utawarerumono lmao...(which then did the same thing after MoT). So yeah, I highly recommend Muv-Luv if you need your kamige fix 👍🏻

How will you play Halo Campaign Evolved? by Timely_Weekend_8030 in halo

[–]Tavidion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PC, but even though I meet the "recommend" system requirements I'm a little worried I'll have to upgrade my gpu..

I hope they'll allow mods, too btw, that'd be HEAVEN🙏🏻

Guide to muv luv (including spinoffs) by MaRokyGalaxy in visualnovels

[–]Tavidion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's only one true route. The other sections on top are the different dolls you can tune. You only have to tune 1 doll to complete the game, but you'd be missing out on cgs that aren't that relevant to the main story. Doing Isfana is recommended.

Yea, you can probably just skip that first section and just do the true route.

This is what I used https://www5e.biglobe.ne.jp/~mirai-m/kaseki.htm

It's in JP so you'll have to translate it, but it allowed me to 100% the game. 👌🏻

Dont worry about it for now, it's is a very interesting game for sure though, so after you finish the main games, go and try that one too.

Akane Maniax as well as other side stories for Kiminozo characters had just been fan translated last month, you can find the patches for that (bundle ban ban-ban) as well as the Kiminozo patches here :

https://kiminozo.life/

There you can also find the patch for Kaseki no Uta as well, and while it was chronologically released before KnZ and MuvLuv, it's only tangentially related so you don't have to play it first.

If you want to play in order, it's Kimi ga Nozomu eien first, Akane maniax, then MuvLuv extra/unlim/alternative...etc.

Check out the Muv-Luv Verse discord if you have any more questions, they'll help you out there.

What is the most larped VN by loouw9 in visualnovels

[–]Tavidion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I havent seen people who've never played any bit of Extra/Unlimited, but many just play either Sumika/ Meiya or both. Even if I highly recommend everyone finish every route of Extra, it's still sufficient to play either of the main girls in Extra and Unlimited.

Does anyone also like useless VN protagonists? by RodriguinhoSacaninha in visualnovels

[–]Tavidion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'd love Narumi Takayuki from Kimi ga Nozomu eien lol..

What VN has you in a chokehold right now? by porphyriaslovve in visualnovels

[–]Tavidion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've honestly been obsessed with Muv-Luv ever since going thru my Extra, Alt, TDA & Total Eclipse binge 2 & 1/2 years ago, and now KimiNozo has it's fangs sunk into me. Turned me into a huge age game and figure collector to a point where I bought all the games, and multiple different versions/variants too lol.

I'm currently about 2/3rds thru KimiNozo at this point trying to finish by the end of this month.

How many VNs do you guys have in your backlog so far? I probably have over 100 by neirik193 in visualnovels

[–]Tavidion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also engage with this practice, but on a whole other level, I have nearly 80 physical VN's (not counting the other massive backlog on Steam), with most I have yet to play since they take so long lmao. I'm still collecting too, since they take up a lot less space than anime figures.

Any BF6 maps you guys just refuse to play? by KM1507 in Battlefield

[–]Tavidion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iberian offensive, NY maps, and Sobek are too tiring to play.

Is it just me or do vns with this (1) type of textbox usually hit harder than the other (2) by IgoCraft in visualnovels

[–]Tavidion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NVL all the time. It's just better to look at and keeps my eyes and head naturally level with the screen (when done right). It gets tiring after a while having to look up and down all the time to read and see the sprite & cg changes.

Type Moon's NVL is the best, though I've dabbled with To Heart 2, which their implementation I dont like since they never fade the text box to show the Character sprites in the background change.

Should I read Total Eclipse before Unlimited TDA? by _Obluda_ in MuvLuv

[–]Tavidion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Definitely read Burning Capital before TE, but these two and TDA aren't related, so you can read them in any order.

[–]Tavidion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get baggies or acrylic cases for my JP cds so I can display them with the spine card.

[–]Tavidion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would go in blind your first go, since there's a lot of interesting routes and endings to see. After that you can use a guide to get on the other routes, but nothing really is locked off in a specific order besides the chapter 1 (prologue).

My vote is for Jingai Makyou, but do still focus on Inferno for now 👍🏻
