Man, I really miss Ley Line. I had such a blast playing it. Do you guys know any games with a similar ノリ and episodic plot?

>>36738109

>play Amatsukaze
>can't read the baked in gameplay text and it's a card game
I'm probably doing SofthouseChara games instead while finishing 2k

>>36738530
Tried not being an EOP?

How to gain motivation to finish that stalled game you spent 70 hours playing?

>>36740175
you don't need to do it if you don't want to

>>36740175
Ugh, I still have to read most of the after stories from Nukitashi2.

>>36740175
I find playing something else for a change of pace helps for coming back afterward, if it's something you played recently. Otherwise, if I really want to force myself to finish it I'll do just that--something like not eating dinner before I read an hour minimum helps in the long run. It also helps if you need to lose weight.

>>36696388#p36736595
Schwarzesmarken VN has really good production values and really nails the depressing winter atmosphere but it definitely leaves some stuff out. I haven't read the novels but I know that aside for the main one there are prequels for different characters. The game expects you to have read them or to read them after because it doesn't fully explain a few things like some character relationships.

Is the Itazuraneko library definitely gone or is some godly anon planning on restoring it and keeping it alive. It was super handy for retro games, eroge and stuff.

>>36738109
Could just read other Unisonshift Blossom games?

>>36738009
Why does she wear the hat

Does the Monkeys trial have any ero scenes?

>>36741489
Yes.

>>36741489
MC isn't voiced on them.

>>36740392
I'm pretty sure they released the prequels after the main LNs so it's just a case of shitty writing really
there was also a prequel-prequel LN series that ended up getting cancelled when âge sold their company or some shit and it looks like it's never getting continued

>>36743832
I was recently checking it and most of the Atelier Kaguya games were still up. Grab them if you're interested because they could also vanish.

>>36743832
I think the reason for this is that Mega suspends your account and deletes your files if you don't log in every so often

残念

>>36744367
For now

What the hell is wrong with Silky Plus's engine? Fuyukuru literally crashes every other damn line for me.

Why is there no Tomefure S Soundtrack CD, it's so good.

>>36744547
The code detected that you aren't japanese so it runs a function that purposely crashes the game based on random chance.

>perfect ojou-sama
>game is 17+ but not 18+
Goddamnit

>>36744817
But people in EGS are giving it shit scores because of the performance???

>>36745100
Are there any real 18+ eroge beyond what KISS makes, anyways?

>>36745194
There's a lot of false positives as expected of Japanese programmers.

How can you even mess up programming a visual novel of all things? It's just a bunch of if statements and rendered pictures. I've played Elona for days without encountering bugs and that shit's way more convoluted.

>>36745275
Obviously when it comes to eroge you aren't going to get the most talented or knowledgeable people. You take what you can get even if they do an awful job.

>>36745275
>not using switch statements for optimum performance

I want to fuck my sister

>>36744792
I was disappointed that there was no BGM player in the extras section.

>>36746754
I want to fuck anon's sister.

I took a look, and extracting Tomefure S's BGM is pretty easy. Just run GARbro, navigate to the Tomefure S folder (defaults to C:\Program Files (x86)\TomefureS), and open up bgm.fpk. They're already in Ogg format, so you can just extract them all to a folder and go nuts.

>>36746935
Imagine installing eroge to your system disk. My finished eroge folder is 1 tera big.

A single H-scene is 30 minutes. That's too long. Way too fucking long.

>>36747552
Every eroge should be like that. What's the game, Tomefure?

How's the new Hulotte? Any other good games release in the last 3 months?

>>36744024
Here's what happened a few months ago:
>retard asks for download link to some shitty game
>anon links itazuraneko
>someone spergs out about spoonfeeding links
>the beggar gets pissed and mass reports the downloads
>everything gone
The downloads were still live the day before it was posted here.

>>36747729
Yes. I can't stroke that long. My hand hurts.

>>36747806
>Any other good games release in the last 3 months?
Mr. Greenman, do you want to read a game set in a juvenile detention center?

>>36747806
it was about the google list
and i bet the itazuraneko links died because of mega starting to enforce account storage limits, i dont think its because someone reported them

>>36747806
Only done one route but it's the same as always, if you like other Hulotte and don't mind them switching to NBR imouto then you'll like this one.
Feels more like the yabai series than like the last two.

>>36746754

ummm, white bros

Something sees off about this picture...

>>36748015
I like Hulotte but not sure what to feel about the new one. Only main girl with the hidden eye looks nice to me. Does the one with the purple sweater have a sub route or anything? What about the trap?

>>36747956
>juvenile detention center
Sounds like a nukitrash premise full of rapeshit. Oh wait is it the new game by the Nukitashi devs? If so then pass the characters looked like trash.

>>36748013
No, I remember the thread. Itazurako was posted and one guy said he's gonna report the list and then it was actually deleted. Would be a huge coincidence if Mega decided to delete old accounts at the same time for stuff that worked just a day before which it did.

>>36748571
>Oh wait is it the new game by the Nukitashi devs
It's not and it has no rape or ntr

>>36747956
>>36748606
Are you talking about that Mellow game? Was it good?

>>36748571
Kururu gets a route, and so does sensei, trap doesn't.

>>36748614
Yes, very.

>>36748571
>>36747806
There's some asshole in the gravure thread who issued fake dmca requests with a fake as fuck dmcasomething@cock.li email address, and mega actually took shit town.

>>36748571
I wonder why some links are still up then. Not everything was taken down

>>36748127

Uh yeah, (((white))). He was cool in megadeth though to be fair.

>>36748344
Hmm

>>36749557
FUUUUUUUCK

>>36749043
that thread is what made me download the whole masterlist, i figured if that faggot didn't cause problems someone else would. and itazuraneko was pretty small in comparison

>>36749875
I don't think google lets random trolls make DMCA requests like mega does. Probably the default privacy change to google drive like an anon mentioned.

I'm finishing up Blonde's route in hajirabu. Are pink and brown worth doing? I haven't seen anyone talk about them.

>>36738009
She is cute.

>>36751252
Absolutely. What a beautiful cover and exquisite gilding.

Anyone ever play Memories Off? Was considering getting the Historia collection and just wanted to hear some thoughts.

One day, I will become the prime minister of Japan, and when I do, I will make having cute girls who don't have routes fall in love with MC and ask him to go out with them illegal unless a fandisc is planned.

>>36751660
Would you rather have every girl who isn't 攻略可能 be an ugly slag?

1 is a fun little ero romp, lots of choices, rather short (not a bad thing), intriguing premise (the original erotic western mansion), good art and va. it pioneered the character that would more or less become the protagonist of the itou-ke series (nanbara iirc)

2 is meanwhile a legendary kamige, basically bigger and better. its not a straight up cuckge as some may think, its rather some kind of ultimate bait and switch thing (especially if you played the first game): it often gives you the feeling of being in charge, only to mercilessly crush you into the ground. but theres bittersweet cathasis in the end. top notch art of rin shin, probably his (her?) best overall work. same with the music (one of those famous chuunige composers worked on it, whose name escapes me). one writing passage really stuck with me, something about an insect crawling through the light. thats the atmosphere conjured here, beauty hopelessly struggling in the most wretched ugliness. this game is obviously not for the masses, but if its your thing, well, it really is

>>36760010

Are you saying it was spelled like that somewhere in the game? Anyways, that has to be a reference to Marty Friedman. There's no way that's a coincidence given he's a gaijin weeb that lives there.

Wait, Kimonozo is NTR? What the fuck, I always though it was a moege

>>36761411

Hell no. I'm not sure how exactly NTRge is defined but technically most of the routes involve MC cheating so yeah NTR.

>>36761411
it's a shitpost list anon

>河原崎家の一族 2
Only a company as retarded as Elf could stir up a fiasco as big as the re-release of this did. I don't think anyone in Japan is sad that these idiots went under.

>>36761411
It's just a drama game
A route might feature a girl cheating but instead of the usual anime tropes all 3 characters involved just feel like shit about it and cry, with the girl saying she feels like a dirty slut and the MC thinking about how he can break up with her now without her commiting sudoku because he already wanted to break up with her before she cheated

>>36751630
I can reccomend first 2 games if you want good teen love drama

>>36761490
So White Album 2 but the girls actually cheat? Sign me up.

Re Cation

>>36761571
Sorry but technically only Mitsuki cheats in one specific scenario outside her route. Otherwise, MC does all the cheating.

>>36761571
Kiminozo has all kinds of crazy shit, after you clear one of the main routes hospital nurses will randomly start asking you to have straight up FUCK because they're all sluts with 0 moral values. And one of them is a loli.

>>36761806
It's not like you can write porn games without assuming your audience has the mental faculties of a 5 year old.

I personally separate my life to pre-Higurashi and post-Higurashi periods, as reading it has completely changed how I view the world. It taught me to appreciate life much more (or rather in a different way) than I used to and also be more honest with myself. It may have a similar effect on you, or it may do nothing if it’s not your kind of thing, but one thing is clear — you’ve got to read it even if it’s the last thing you do.

My life has been an ongoing quest to discover life-changing works of fiction, and despite having gone through thousands of books, movies, games and the like, I have yet to find anything to even rival Higurashi. I’m honestly getting goosebumps just remembering it.

>>36761983

>>36761928
Ok so it turns out that after the VN ends Rika wants to go to a really nice girls school and asks satoko to join her, and satoko makes it into the school but doesn't like it there because she has to study and Rika is spending time with other people. Then she meets a god who gives her looping powers and she uses them to go back to the VN and brutally murder all her friends a thousand times so that Rika never decides to go the school. Then Rika finds out and they have a dragonball battle over a sword that can kill loopers where they both start overflowing with KI and learn to fly. At one point Rika gets punched so hard she flies 30 meters into a trash pile and lands in a fridge that she crawls out of like indiana jones.

>>36762025
>really nice girls school
It's literally the same school Shion and Ange went to. It's a hellhole and it doesn't make any sense that during all the time they spent studying for the entrance exams they didn't talk to Shion about it even once, and she didn't try to dissuade them.

>>36762025
Higurashi didn't deserve this. The original game was good

>>36762111
4.0 has a scene where 2 evas fight in imaginary space and the scene keeps cycling through famous locations the show had like Misato's garbage pile of a kitchen. New Higurashi does the same thing but there isn't really an explanation for why it happens

Unironically more intellectual and challenging than any Bob Dylan song.

Technically there are only three actual "visual novels" and those are Leaf's Shizuku, Kizuato and ToHeart. But yeah, jokes aside ノベルゲーム is used pretty often especially by news sites. Also, when it comes to casual discussion on the net the Japanese just call almost everything English speakers would associate with VN as just ADV.

SubaHibi has convinced you to live in happiness in your own realistic daily life (if you are open to the message that is) – whilst the entire story is made up of the highest level of artifice – and it directly throws this fact in your face with the very first epigraph. In other words, it is a story about the triumph of Fiction over life, underscoring life, and making life all the more vibrant because of it. The moral of the story is not just “Live Happily” but “Live Happy Fantasies” – the failure of happiness for some of the characters in the work is not due to being delusional, but due to having the wrong delusions.

And so, you find yourself drawn – asking: “Why is it that I’ve seen these acts before, done so many times, and yet all of those previous moments were merely amusements? Why is it now that I have realized their full enchantment?” If you examine the constituents of SubaHibi in their individual parts – you come to the same conclusion as what a character described Cyrano de Bergerac as – an easy entertainment designed to make you feel comfortable – not an outstanding play, but a witty and playful one.

It is for this exact reason that SubaHibi opens up the highest potential for the metafictional – it keeps you within the circle for the duration of its spell, despite you being fully aware of the circle. It uses that awareness the same way a magician uses misdirection in a magic trick. The more you are aware, the more you find yourself still strangely affected by its contents – and then that sets the stage for the true performance to sink in.

>>36767048
Yes, second game is much better.

>>36767048
Yes and you should consider them as three parts of a single moderate length game, because that's what they are, and not three separate games.

Have you tried Vermilion?

Is it worth playing the first Tokimeki Memorial today?

>>36771557
Probably not today, but tomorrow might be good.

>>36771557
Personally I found the lack of dialogue to be its downfall because it makes the characters come off as extremely boring and 1-dimensional. The bomb system is overdone to the point where it's annoying too. I think there are too many little things that add up to make it too much of grindy nuisance to play today. However you should definitely try it out if you're more interested in the historical significance of it rather than looking at it as something that holds up today. It was definitely impressive for its time as there was nothing quite like it, but nowadays where we get more fleshed out heroines it's pretty meh. Shiori and her high-standards are still legendary though.

http://www.light.gr.jp/light/products/magatsubarai/
i thought they were dead?
well new takahama game should be interesting but man they're really giving up on eroge huh

>>36771557
I think they only really perfected the formula with みつめてナイト and TokiMemo 2. As a product of its time 1 can be fascinating to look back onto, but it's hard to call it a peculiarly good game.

>>36771557
Maybe for one playthrough. Tokimeki 1 and 2 gameplay is a massive a chore after the first run, routes, if you can even call them routes, don't have good buildup because everything is optional. Payoff is weak and all the 'good' events are easilly missed if you don't follow a guide. If you don't have the nostalgia for them then don't bother.

what was impressive about it? it pioneered the stat autism, sure, but certainly didnt add anything new to the galge concept itself. nanpa games existed way before

>>36774165
scratch that, it didnt come up with the stat autism. it just applied the systems of princess maker to doukyuusei, ending up with something worse than both

>>36762025
How'd you like the last episode of higurashi anonymous

>>36774229
I really liked the part where K1 gives a speech regarding what he believes friendship is all about to a loli that just spend the last 130 years brutally murdering him and everyone he cares about because she doesn't want to study

>>36771894
>>36772890
Cast is using eroge aliases so 18+ port is likely, hopefully it won't take 6 years like that Minato Carnival game last month.

>>36774165
By nanpa games, do you mean Doukyuusei and the like? There is a big difference in tone between those and Tokimeki Memorial. And not to mention Tokimemo was fully voiced and you could have the girls call you by your name, which added to the personal factor. Rather than any crazy or innovative gameplay features, the popularity came more from the immersion and being able to connect with the girls more easily. Obviously looking back, you don't really get that immersion factor just because it's too barebones by today's standards.

is the faggot in chaos child going to stop stuttering like a retard when confronted by his bully or quit being a cuntslave to the nagging orange bitch anytime soon or can I safely drop this game

why are dating sims not popular anymore? did nips stop feeling lonely?

>>36776221
They thought they weren't worth the effort, thus only girls get tokimemo now.

>>36776221
All of the dating sim players got married to their love plus cartridges, there's no playerbase left

Truck-kun must be stopped.

>>36776221
>did nips stop feeling lonely?
no they're just booting up vns instead where they get attention from virtual girls without the annoying bullshit

>>36776221
Why go through all that effort when you can just get a moege?

>>36776221
It's just too much work. All the dating simulation bullshit isn't actually fun or interesting gameplay.

There's a pretty massive build you own bundle offer on DMM, is it worth it? Any recs?

>>36776221
Because there's a chance of getting rejected, nips can't cope with being a loser in 3D and 2D.

>>36776221
Datesims were replaced by novelge because people don't actually want to balance stats or whatever - they want cute girls and romance. Datesim --> moege evolution is understandable.

>>36777340
There are some that walk the thin line between both somewhat gracefully and I think they're better than the usual moege for it. I would have never played LoveR if it weren't for that, anyways.

So are they ever going to explain why Habaki smokes a pipe while fighting or is it just because it's cool?

>>36777852
>So are they ever going to explain why [insert literally anything here] or is it just because it's cool?
first masada game?

>>36777590
They are much better, dating sims have you handling calendar activities, items and of course stat points. Vapid moege will never be a replacement or evolution for them.

>>36777852
realistically lmao speaking, once he going to do with his nice kiseru when fighting? leave it on the ground? doesn't seem to have a belt with those cool clothes
logically conclusion is that its easier to enjoy a smoke whilst kicking ass

>>36771894
They got KEG, Sumeragi and the Silverio series main scripwriter? Looks like kamige is back in the menu.

>>36777886
I mean Eleonore smoked in Dies Irae but her power involved using fire so it kind of made sense.

Is PC considered a porn-only platform on japan or something?

>>36779846
Nips don't know the glory of steam because half their publishers are jews

t. tried buying DQ11 on steam only to find out they removed japanese language text from the global release so they could release it separately as a japan only region locked product that is 10 dollars more expensive than the global version and never gets discounts

>>36779893
That's an extremely common practice. Even now, if you try to buy anime BDs/DVDs from a western publisher they will often make it impossible to remove the subtitles if you have the Japanese audio playing, specifically to discourage second-order importing because you can buy an entire series for what it costs to buy two episodes in Japan.

>>36779780
Second game is even better than the first?, too bad school shit infiltrated even there

Is Baldr Sky Zero any good?

>>36781059
I like it a lot, but it has 2 big problems. One is Shizel's route being absolute garbage, especially coming after Sakura and Fran who were great. The other one is that the game is pretty bloated. I like the cast a lot so I don't mind the scenario being too long but the combat part has so many filler missions that by the time you're less than halfway through Marelle's route you should already have unlocked and maxed out everything so fighting gets really pointless. I'm pretty sure they realized that since suddenly almost every mission let's you escape instad of fighting.

>>36781612
>game is pretty bloated
so just like the original, lol

Just started reading 神様のような君へ. What a fucking pretentious protagonist, just fade to background or something.

what is the best jap board where they talk about vns

Finished HimaNatsu last night.

There's a few things I have some gripes with, and I personally didn't like how the final route went, but it was still a nice game. It had a very nice atmosphere and I liked Yomi's and Ruka's routes.

I've pretty much finished all of Makura's catalogue at this point, at least until SakuToki comes out

>>36738028
Why is she rubbing her hands? Is she a merchant?

>>36785451
how bad are other routes outside of scaji one and that blond loli? i heard rest are shit and skippable
also how it in comparison with other scaji vns

>>36785637
They're fine for the most part, and if you like the characters, they're fun to read. Hina's route is entertaining, but like I said, I didn't like how things went. Maybe others like it, but it wasn't my cup of tea.

I would say it's on the same level as H2O, but below Supreme Candy. HimaNatsu is more consistent in quality, but I found the best parts of those games to be much better than everything in HimaNatsu.

In my opinion, SakuUta > SubaHibi > Tsui no Sora Remake > Supreme Candy > HimaNatsu> H2O > Ikikoi.

>>36779566
>sprites show legs
I like it. Kinda sick of only seeing the upper body all the time.

>>36779566
nvm, i found it.

>>36785799
supreme candy any good? i've only heard bad about it so far
also you should try nijuuei if you still haven't, one of the best scaji games imo (though need to use ps1 emulator if you want voices, works perfectly in duckstation)

Are you angry he didn't fuck Tsukuyomi on the first day?

So, Kuroinu 2-kai is out. It has some new scenes:

>radomila ganga rape by goblins
>radomlia bathing in cum in a bathtub, only like 2 CGs
>Iris and Serafina being double gang raped at the same time
>Iris,Serafina,and Eleonora the bishop pressing their tits on a 2-way mirror while they get fucked and guys watching them and blowing their load at the mirror
>Astrid,the fox girl,and the dekapai dwarf giving a triple blowjob
>Astrid being fucked and titjobbed on her knees while under super mindcontrol magic.

>>36784406
You are like a god...

Is that right?

>>36788494
More like "to a God-like (you)..."

>>36788475
It's a remake and not a fandisc, right?

>>36780302
Without school shit, how would we get Detective Club?

>>36788494
It is "To you like goddess"

>>36789814
Both sort of, it includes everything from the first game but has a large sprinkling of new scenes in it. It's like the perfect version I guess.

Are there any other nukige that get to the point like Role Player does? I don't like skipping through story just to get to the sex scenes but being a wagie makes it hard to find the time to just sit down and read erotica for hours.

>>36787001
I can tolerate the pussy ass type protagonist. But when Tsukuyomi “steals” a bit of money to buy food for him, he acts like on the moral high ground while himself committed the worst crime of humanity (that may have cost a shit ton of damage if IRL) with the reason of “I like security” is fucking pretentious and hypocritical.
>>36788494
forgot the 君へ

>>36791267
nukige almost always gets to the point though. It's weirder when it doesn't.

>>36792238
Well, sometimes a nukige will disguise itself as a charage, so I can understand that anon's need for a clear pick.

In the topic of light's revival, how is Senshinkan and its sequel? Just some basic impressions about characters, scenario, music, battles compared to other light stuff like Silverio and Dies irae.

>>36792560
Senshinkan and its sequel are very good. Worse than Dies Irae but much better than Silverio series

>>36792609
>Worse than Dies Irae
What can be worse than two fodder routes, lol?

Some madman out there got to this part, hit もう結構だ, closed the game, and never opened it again.

>>36792621
An entire game being a dream.[/spoilder]

>>36792621
Kei's route may technically be fodder, but it's damn cool fodder. I don't care if I'm literally the only person that thinks this.

>>36792705
I don't hate her route as whole, i really love some scenes in it, but still feels like a fodder for me, desu.

>>36792705
They are fodder and bad endings 2 in 1. A good setup for the real routes but nothing more.

>>36792737
Yeah but Beatrice vs Eleonore was fucking kino.

>>36791343
>the worst crime of humanity

I think you're exaggerating a bit, he's just a grey hat hacker who likes to break into security systems and then let the owner know of the vulnerabilities he found. There are much worse crimes he could have committed with his skills, but he didn't. "Find me my perfect girlfriend" was just supposed to be an inoffensive order to actually test the administrator privileges he gained, he obviously didn't expect to have a robot custom-made for him, but once she arrived at his door it was already too late to do anything about it.

It's not any more hypocritical than people in prison beating the shit out of child molesters even though they're both criminals. Everyone draws a different line with their morality. Just because you illegally grow some weed and sell it to your friends doesn't mean you have to go balls deep into the crime world and make your own mafia.

Don't get me wrong, there's a lot of things I dislike about him, for example (and this is a spoiler from Tsukuyomi's route) him revealing to Kirika that Tsukuyomi was C-AI itself was completely unnecessary, just saying she's a robot would have been enough. And then saying "oh yeah if anyone else finds out they're going to take her away so can you promise not to tell anyone?" was a bit of a dick move, he offloaded that information and then emotionally guilt tripped her into silence.
However not wanting to ruin the economy by having Tsukuyomi give him infinite money is definitely not one of the bad aspects.

>>36786499
Supreme Candy is probably his second best work after Subahibi but only when you reach Yuuri and Jakoko routes where all the crazy shit starts. I don't like SakuUta at all if that tells you what kind of Sca-ji work you should expect.

>>36793701
You know what, while I do think you're undermining his crimes, I agreed on other points. Still, he's an insufferable trash of a protagonist and I'd pick any eroge with a mass murderer over him.

Is Tsukihime remake better than original VN?

>>36795296
yes

>>36795296
Only if you're a zoomer.

>>36795296
It's incomplete, so it's worse by default. Ask again in 2026 or so, after the second half of the game comes out.

>>36795426
>second half
Did they really?

>>36788494
First learn Japanese.

>>36795296
I'd be impressed if it's worse.

>>36795390
agreed

>>36792560
It really varies
I've heard people mention how they liked Senshinkan more than Dies and KKK and I've heard people mention how they liked Silverio, the first two, more than Senshinkan
As for me, I think Senshinkan is pretty fun but it really has some issues, plus it's not as dramatic as Shinza which can be a letdown for some people.
In terms of productions and music however, it's significantly better than light's catalogue. I cannot wait to hear Yonao's new tracks in Avesta because the snippets from Pantheon sounded great

>>36795296
Well you can only compare the Near side routes for the time being and with how the remake actually treated Ciel's route, I'm inclined to say yes.

>>36795296
It really depends on a lot of factors. On the terms of presentation, shine, possibilities of the medium then yes, it is better (in my opinion, anyway). But then if we shift our sight from technicalities it gets more tricky. For example I'm very much into the eroge of late 90s and early 00s and original Tsukihime really scratches that itch. I love the presentation of the original despite it being significantly less polished than the remake. Same with the script. Remake will (eventually) offer more complete, thought out and polished take on the story but again I really like how succinct are at times older eroge. If I compare it to Tsui no Sora it's a similar situation - I consider the remake to be more complete, polished and better realized (both as a piece of software and as a text) than the original, but the original just has that charm I'm really weak to. Same with Tsukihime.

Guess I would say it depends. Both the original and the remake are worth your time. Cannot wait for the eight disc OST to come out at the end of November.

>>36795296
In a strictly near side vs near side comparison, yes absolutely. Arc's route is a straight-up upgrade. Ciel's may be radically different but in the original her route was easily the weakest anyway so it's much better in the remake.

Planning on checking out Kiminozu, is there some sort of consensus regarding which version's supposed to be the superior? I vaguely recall reading something about "latest edition" removing a route, but I'm not completely sure and would appreciate it if someone can post a quick rundown.

>>36803355
>Kiminozu

>>36803355
Just read the latest edition. It has the fancier sprites plus a bunch of content from the fandisc and some extra scenarios.
>removing a route
I've never heard of that before but I'm pretty sure that isn't true.

>>36795296
They're too different. One isn't a replacement for the other, it's worth reading both. It's like asking if FF7R is 'better' than FF7.

>>36803355
LE has all the routes including the endings where you impregnate underage characters
I think I heard what you're talking about before and I'm pretty sure it's just an /m/ EOP being confused and spouting garbage because there's an ending where you turn a character into a pseudo-fucktoy and Kiminozo had 2 console releases before LE where they no doubt removed all the crazy shit. VNDB lists they got a new writer for the PS2 version but I'm pretty sure nearly all of that shit was thrown out for Latest edition with how perverted it is. Never read the console versions so I can't really say
