Glad I could help!

Is that why FSN isn't on steam?

​@zerodepravityarchive1478 FSN does not have an official English release or Steam release in the first place. That said, Type-Moon just announced about a week ago that FSN is now getting an official English translation and will be available on Steam and the Switch. It's the Realta Nua version released in 2010 which does not have eroge scenes. Nasu removed them when the game was first remade because he didn't like them and didn't want them there in the first place.

@@purelysmetalnightcore God I hope that is true, if it is this is the greatest news I've heard ever since I heard of the tsukihime remake.

@zerodepravityarchive1478 The announcement has been all over social media and is on Type-Moon's official YT channel, of course it's true 💀

Oh it's pretty obvious that there are more than a few twats on their payroll that hate anime games

It works well with everything for me so far lol

I started using magpie for MapleStory but it also worked wonderfully on things like Touhou and old VNs, where the windowed mode is too tiny but native fullscreen mess up computer resolution. It's a really impressive and light application, it surprised me when I saw it was one of the tips

I'm done reading it. Currently writing the script~

Magpie upscales applications in general. It's just mostly used for VNs

Where can we find most of them if not on Steam

@@8kuji On their publisher's stores such as JAST, Mangagamer, Depnasoft, etc etc etc.

Recently finished Utawarerumono trilogy (cried at the end)

You’d be surprised how much story content can be added by 18+ patches, even though it is obvious you are joking. Nukitashi is one of my favorite visual novels, but not just for the h scenes, but it has a great plot and comedy. Without the 18+ patch though, the game is horrible because you lose almost all of that, since the whole visual novel is erotic in nature, considering the story is hosted on a sex obsessed island

Dunno why anyone would want to play VN's without the 18+ content. Something like Phoenix Wright had a decent chunk of gameplay/exploration focus, but most VN's basically just come down to making choices (though I also wouldn't mind an 18+ version of the original trilogy with every single one of the cute girls getting lewded, no exception. This does not include Oldbag since she's not cute in the first place). Anything else would need 18+ content. I'm not exactly a VN player though. I've played a few and I usually just want more game to my games. If I want anime-style story I read manga or watch anime.

@@thenonexistinghero if you want sex scenes, you can just watch hentai? Do you only watch movies that show sex? Or only read erotic books? Not everyone needs/wants sexual content in their media. I've read enough VN's with sexual content and most of them are badly written (the h-scenes, at least) and not worth the time.

​@@_JustMonikabecause you're a clown

In all seriousness, it can depend. Sometimes, H scenes only exist because, at the time, the creators think their game wouldn't sell, FSN comes to mind, and the infamous "mana transfer" scenes or MLA which has this random tentacle grape scene just slotted into the middle of this very depressing narrative.

Now it definitely is and bought already on both

What's Nyrrna? I tried to google search it and the results just show Nirvana, both the band and the religious concept.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Either I explain my interests in passionate detail, or I go bust. I'm not taking the coward's path!

Steam allows you to hide what games you have now I believe. Pretty recent update

@@TheAugustHail Yeah, your friends don't need to know. Still wouldn't risk it though.

Glad it was helpful!

"Sanitizing" isn't the right word. More like butchering to a pulp.

Damn rip

Steam isn't only store providing regional pricing. Some stores/publishers like GOG, Jast USA, and Kagura Games also provides regional pricing.

@@Ch05en0ne GOG does not have VND as a currency, Jast USA still price it in USD so it's annoying to pay, Kagura Games has too limited choices compare to other sites like MangaGamer

Don't the official websites these days usually have these patches?

They say they're working on it. But when it will be out no one knows

Laptops have a desktop mode. I read through most of the Nekopara series in front of my TV with a controller in hand. That said, reading my physical copy of Frontwings ISLAND anywhere in the house was a godsend.

Damn, all my friends have seen my saves and cgs on Aokana and Further Than the Blue Sky and are just like wtf and move on with life (They do joke but I do to). Horror ones are somehow easier to explain due to sex scenes in them usually being fucked up and not good material (And something like Saya no Uta is more graphic novel style than anime with the exception of Saya herself), but that's probably bad for a different reason. Also appreciate most publisher store don't show what I bought and just say the store so I can lie and say I bought sfw ONE (i did actually buy it) and not nsfw Aokana.

Frat bros. Claim to be sex positive... have as much sexual intelligence as a Christian priest working for morality in media.

This involves having to deal with living beings, getting a partner would take decades, downloading a VN takes a day at most Even then some partners may not be comfortable or would be reluctant to do some weird things

Guess why I read vn😅

1) My appearance is mid 2) socialising is mid 3) Getting a partner would take a decade and a signifcant amount of effort and money 4) Slice of life in visual novels gets to the jokes and fun stuff quicker than an actual relationship 5) the possibility of toxic relationships, your partner may be manipulative and even toxic which would be extremely damaging especially when you have invested so much time and effort and money 6) Your time would be compromised, you would have to follow and go through with your partner's plans and also your friend's plans, this would be annoying for someone just trying to focus on one particular thing that is fun for example anime. Sometimes you just want to binge watch anime but you can't because your friend or partner has plans for you or wants to play games with you. Having multiple sources of dopamine can lead to burnout and the feeling of being lost as you don't know what you have accomplished and experienced and just feel like you are going with the flow and do not have any influence in what you do. It feels like you are trapped. 7) if you do get a partner the likely next step would be marriage, this is very costly and very time consuming 8) It is incredibly hard to get a good-looking and attractive girlfriend, this is because we are grown in a society where men are expected to approach girls and women's expectations are incredibly high, this leads to having a girlfriend with mid appearances. It may feel annoying to spend all this time and effort on a girlfriend that looks mid. 9) visual novels include many heroines to choose from and you can experience many heroine routes, getting a partner would restrict you with only dating that partner as doing otherwise would be considered cheating. This is fine for people that are very in love, but if you have a mid looking girlfriend then this is problematic. 10) socialising can lead to a lack of focus in academic studies. Having people constantly trying to start a conversation can be very focus depleting and can lead to people burning out quicker. Imagine having a friend constantly messaging you whilst you study or you're in school and someone keeps trying to talk to you. And to makes matters worse if you decide to ignore them for a significant amount of time, then it would lead to falling out and the relationship/friendship fizzling out. 11) when you have a partner, it is natural for you to start living together especially if you are getting married, sharing a house could be constricting as you feel that someone is constantly monitoring and judging you and don't have any privacy to yourself. You could just shout and sing goofy songs or just say internal monologues when you have a girlfirend in fear that she may think you're cringe and not cool. Also you can't just relax and master bait to good eroge or po*n in fear of your girlfriend catching you and being called cringe. 12) your girlfriend has access to all your stuff and as a result you could feel that your privacy is being invaded especially if your girlfriend is nosy. 13) when you have friends you actively have to be self conscious and check that your appearance looks good because your friends will judge how you look. In addition if the environment is poor and your friends are bad people, you could get into dr*gs which is very harmful but this is kinda rare 14) friends may feel like you are drifted from them or you are away from them once you get a partner as you will have to juggle between personal life studies friends and your partner. This can lead to you spending less time with your friends and may even cause conflict which can lead to toxic situations. I'm too far gone
