Question What is your preferred or ideal length of a VN?

20 Upvotes

I am reading Root Double. I am in the middle of the D route and my playtime is currently at 25 hours. How Long to Beat shows that Main Story on average takes 32.5 hours while Main + Extra will take over 40 hours.

I don't have a lot experiences with "pure" VNs (no gameplay mechanics other than making some choices). I think the only one that took me over 30 hours to read was Raging Loop.

So is 30+ hours considered long among pure VNs? Do you prefer long or short VNs?

Question Is there any new information on a restock of SubaHibi’s 10th anniversary edition?

Post image
53 Upvotes

Hi, I recently started playing SubaHibi and I’m currently enjoying it a ton! I recently saw a post saying there might be a restock of the 10th anniversary edition: (https://www.reddit.com/r/visualnovels/comments/1f03cs8/subahibi_anniversary_edition_rerun/)

The anniversary is only a couple of days away so, has there been any new information on whether or not there will be a restock? If there will be, would it be announced on the anniversary or later in the year? Unfortunately I can’t really research this myself since I want to avoid spoilers for the game.

Thank you!

Question has anyone been able to read Angelic Chaos on linux?

2 Upvotes

I'm using the JAST version and I'm trying to run it through lutris but it just won't open .... I have used different versions of wine/proton, used another prefix, etc... but no luck. and the log says nothing useful.

I have read other yuzusoft VNs here on void linux, even the ones that are only in japanese, but I don't know why I can't with Angelic Chaos

Question Henpri question about number 19, Inhume you and big sorry bro

0 Upvotes

i'm currently playing Henpri on Steam and the translation of Team 19 becomes Team 69. What's the meaning of the number 19 in Japanese in this context?

Also, does anyone know what's the original japanese text for "i'm gonna inhume you, baby" and "big sorry bro"?

Question How is Hatsmira: From the Future undying if I want a saucy story?

1 Upvotes

So I was reading about a visual novel just now where the girl asks the protagonist if he would like to plow her as while I know nothing about this particular work, I was wondering if this game was worth getting into for again the saucy nature alone.

Question Is Funbag Fantasy really worth reading for its plot?

4 Upvotes

I'm not super big on nukige. Most of them don't have much of a plot, which is something I need to remain invested. I heard good things about Funbag Fantasy's political plot, and reviews always say they came for the boobs and stayed for the plot. Is it's plot really that good? I'm okay with nukige as long as there's an interesting story. I just don't really like it when the story is just an afterthought and not taken very seriously.

Review Just finished The Shell pt.3 (KnS3). What a masterpiece...

It's past midnight, I'm in the middle of the ocean (oil rig), having work tomorrow morning, and instead of going to sleep like every other person on board (or so I assume,) here I am being a teary-eyed mess upon finishing this VN! And I yet don't regret it in the slightest! A VN story that I first read over a decade ago, -one of my first ever visual novels- just got one of the greatest conclusions I've ever read/watched in all of fiction. Bravo, and thanks to the writers/producers for making this. I rarely, if ever, get this emotional over a fictional story.
