There's a lot of people defending it, but that Umineko thing sure does a good job to make itself look like the trashiest and worst of the worst animu garbage. Good grief. Made for an entertaining video though, especially once they got kind of into it and got past the shock of having too many meters.

Rodyle posted:I would imagine it's just a different input mode. Like the full/half/new moon stuff in Melty. The moons in Melty don't change how you input stuff. It's just a Simple Mode in Umineko, IIRC. Also that game has a stupid number of mechanics - every character has an attribute that gets passed to other characters when they're tagged out, poo poo changes when you use your Overdrive thingie, etc. On another topic, I'm reading the Umineko LP now to try and understand what the gently caress. Had to do something since I've been blindsided by active moderation in RGD.

Look I get that it's faster but like 7th Expansion games are branded Sound Novels and you are missing SO MUCH if you aren't at least clicking the music links (the voice acting is also good but was an addition of the PS3 version, it's not NECESSARY)

Most of the "ones with loving in then" that you will actually hear people talk about have an infinitely lower sex to actual content ratio than a Tarantino movie. In any case it's not relevant to Umineko as 7thExpansion has always been 100% titty free.

Nilbop posted:I literally cannot think of a single Tarantino movie that has a sex scene in it. I think HBO series is a better example. Or Showtime. To be honest the annoying thing about the loving in VNs is that 95% of the time it's a romance route that makes a main character this dopey love interest. Also the weird incest/barely-legal-but-shes-really-1000-years-old/occasional rape undertones.

Like, you look at something like the original Fate Stay Night, and you're looking at an 80 hour game with like, 20-30 minutes of sex total counting all the routes. And they cut it out entirely in rereleases. When people talk about VNs they're talking about that, not about poo poo called, I dunno, "My Childhood Friend Wants My Penis!!!!" or whatever.

No that's a different game, yes and it's terrible, Tsukihime is almost 20 years old and has almost no bearing on the modern market (certainly not like Fate does), and even back then it was still a case where it was like 0.01% titty 99.99% mental meltdowns and vampire knife fights.

I mean, I have to give it to the genre, they did stop appealing to h-gamers in the 2010's. It's just that back in the day there was a lot of weird creepy sex stuff in games that could've done without it. I never played Fate, all I know is King Arthur gave you a blowjob in the original one or whatever, I guess that's fine.

I have to say, despite some flaws season 2 of the telltale batman game is a huge improvement over season 1. All the stuff with Bruce and John was great and I like the inverse of the normal Harley Joker relationship.

God I hope that they didn't accidentally create Joker/Telltale decides to gently caress you by making believing in John be what turns him into Joker.

It seems like John is going to be the Joker either way but can be the Joker as an ally to Batman instead of a nemesis if you hang out with him enough

This Beyond Two Souls lp with Paige is somehow as good or better, because Paige genuinely gives too much benefit to Cage and gets blind sided everytime.
