I know this might sound like an odd request but when I play nakiges that are specifically trying to make you cry, it doesn't do much for me. Are there any vns that are extremely comedic but has really sad moments that make you cry? Something like Gintama even though thats not a vn.

I've been able to play numerous VN via Textractor but I cannot find the right hook, for Kuro to Kin no Akanai Kagi.

It only translates the very beginning and stops, after that. I've spent an hour, manually entering text hooks - I think are the correct ones and they don't work.

I've been having to take pictures of each scene/phrase and put it into a "English translation" folder. 😭

I’m all about it Aliens probably my all time favorite thing that my High Functioning Autistic ass obsesses over. The problem is that VNs with aliens seem hard to find do you have any recommendations? Please and thank you

Dafuk is going on?

I've just finished one route- main heroine. And I just got one burning question in my mind-

Dafuk is going on?

Other than Steins Gate of course.

Ok I am posting coz I need a new VN to read, but I'm genuinely curious about the time travel genre in VN. I want more of a discussion than a VN request, so I'm gonna flair it as such.

So yeah I just wanted to ask how the time travel genre is in VNs.

​

Btw don't recommend anything with rape or any type of SA, no NTR either. Make sure you put a warning if you're brining it up for a discussion, I'm total cool if you wanna just discuss it tho.

I’ve been reading muv luv for many months now. It’s been a long process. Everyone insists that you have to play the first two games to get this huge payoff with alternative. I enjoyed some of the first two, but definitely have my complaints that I won’t really go into. Now I have finally reached muv luv alternative and to be honest I am pretty frustrated. I kind of expected it to look a little different, maybe even have different music, or a different style. Now I’m a few hours in and nothing has changed. I am literally just playing through the entire last last game again. Same goofy music, same slapstick antics literally the same plot!! Please help me! is it going to change or something? Is there really a big payoff? What am I doing here?!

Looking for recommendations for Original English Language Visual Novel to read~

Of course, there's Katawa Shoujo, DDLC, and VA-11 Hall-A, but what are some other really good ones?

And to clarify, I'm asking for visual novels created by English/Western Developers. Not Japanese visual novels translated into English (because for some reason I get recommended JP VNs)

Specifically one that isn't just a dating sim. Something more like a Story where the Protagonist and her lover just end up together at the end. but i wouldn't mind a dating sim as well as long as it has a main story too. And nothing gruesome...please.

Any system is fine but only if it has an English translation available (Fan or official) As i cannot read Japanese... no time to learn yet.

Please nothing too fanservicy, About Chaos;Head levels is the limit for me.

Edit: Probably should have clarified, please no Eroges or H-Games.
Also preferably something longer form.

Are there any you’d all recommend kinda been on a Magical Girl fixation yet and while I enjoy the positivity and upbeat side of them was curious if you had any recommendations for something darker?

Hi guys, i've started Baldr Sky - a version including both Dive1 and Dive2 - and after completing the first 2 routes, i have an error on startup : "Dive 1 data could not be found. This is required to play Dive 1 content.

The menu is different, i guess it's from Dive2 :

Now i'm stuck on the>!Aki!<route and can't go back on the first 2.

I've read Dive1 has 3 routes so i wonder if i have to reinstall the game to fix it, which would be a huge hassle to skim because of the battle phases ...

Any idea ?

I have been trying for a couple days now to no avail, I used https://www.reddit.com/r/visualnovels/comments/1al82lo/comment/kphr1f9/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 as a guide, but could never get it working, but then tried https://www.visualnovelwiki.org/en/vns/white-album-2#lutris, but had no idea how to set the wmp10quartz prefix. I tried to create a wineprefix using https://www.visualnovelwiki.org/en/linux/wineprefix#how-do-i-make-a-wineprefix but didn't know where I could click the wine bottle and bash terminal. Please give a guide for someone as retarded as me with clear step by step instructions. thanks :3

ps: I downloaded the game, made it into a zip folder as it was a portable release, then sent it to my deck and extracted it there, there are no save files or other folders along with it

I have tried the following search on VNDB:
https://vndb.org/v?cfil=&f=022gen3gja&fil=&rfil=&s=22w

However, I could only filter VNs that have been released in English, and ordered by their original release date, which means if something has been released in Japanese 10 years ago, and they released it in English this year, it won't be on the top of the list. Is it possible to filter some way / somewhere, so I can see newly released stuff in English at top?

Hi guys, I just finished the prologue and accidently read a bit of spolier of Chapter 2 and 3 (first line of character description). Tbh that part was pretty shocking so I wonder if these characters will have an happy ending at the end? I dislike story which torture a character from the beginning to the end.

Can anyone confirm me that Subahibi will have an happy ending so that I have courage to continue reading?

What am I supposed to do, I tried to translated it but I didn’t really understand what I’m supposed to do

Like I’m sorry I just don’t wanna ask a regular hair group and then be asked about the huge honkers and fan service going on lol
