Majo no Ie

[翠星石 Jade Stern !M8TfVhb8oM!!Akrl9a4nprm No.]

I'm quite disappointed in you, /jp/
There's only been like two posts about Majo no ie. (aka The Witch's House)

I am therefore led to the conclusion that you guys are only pretending to like doujin games.
It's a good game. It's been translated into english already. Go play it.

I've recently played The Witch's House for the first time.
It's fucking depressing, but I liked it.
I've heard anons saying that the normal ending is okay, but there is a true ending that is REALLY disturbing. I've got two endings(with the knife and without it), and they're almost the same, the second one only has an additional dialogue.
Have I missed something?

[Anonymous No.]

>>10159123
Yes, you missed something.

The true ending reveals that the girl and the witch swapped bodies. When you woke up in front of the mansion, you were already the witch.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10159137
I didn't miss it. It's revealed in both endings.
In the last part of the diary(you read it anyway, it triggers the final chase scene) Ellen clearly says that she switched bodies with Viola

That ending suggests that the diaries were updating in real time, and that "Ellen" was attempting to make that last diary entry a reality.

Got wind of this game early and absolutely loved it.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10159536
Oh I think I get it. In the ending where you get the knife Viola must have said "み" which can mean both body and knife then leading you to think that Ellen is asking Viola to give back her knife. The translation literally says she will not give her "body" back instead of just saying something vague like "I'm not giving it back to you". I could be wrong though.

[Anonymous No.]

That has probably become acceptable usage in American English now.
They like desecrating the English language so much that they now spell everything with a 'z'. I think it was because the people who left for America were illiterate and it slowly became acceptable.

that was a pretty depressing game OP.

[Anonymous No.]

Im glad I played through this without reading the thread, spoilers would have really sucked.

For a light RPG game, it had a pretty good story. Legitimately felt sorry for Viola.

[Anonymous No.]

How could Viola crawl so fast without legs, blind and while in serious pain?

[Anonymous No.]

>>10159027
I am not one to give any sort of shit about fictional characters, usually.

But something happened in my brain when the dad shot viola. I think the idea that the witch betrayed Viola despite Viola offering to help kind of set me off.

Call me a faggot or whatever, but just grabbing some ignorant person off the street is one thing, but betraying someone who offered to help you, or wanted to do something, (clearly anything if she was willing to trust the witch to switch bodies) just really hurts to really think about.

and then I even got the secret ending.(I tried REALLY hard not to slam the bitch into a trap after watching the true end.) only to discover that nothing had really changed.

I wish I could forget I played this game.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10159670
Isnt it the sign of a good story when it affects you emotionally, though? I "hate" the ending too, but at the same time, it was thrilling, and it was different from your usual happy ending.

For such a short game, its extremely memorable.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10159680
I know. it's a feeling that pulls me in two directions.

However, there's a thing that some writers like to do where they fuck their own characters for the sake of shock + anger, and nothing more.
While I won't make the claim that the creator of the game did such a thing, I feel like they could have done Viola SOME justice, instead completely fucking her.

Would've loved for the bonus (no cat) ending to be of Viola getting her body back, somehow.

if that's true, that's even worse. That just makes Ellen's betrayal of Viola that much more painful.

I feel like I have something to learn from Viola's selflessness.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10159711
Considering she was using Ellens own magic while inside her body, you can consider she may not be experienced enough with it to control it properly. For all we know her goal wasn't to kill Ellen, but to simply confront her. Theres not really any way to know these things without a PoV from Viola throughout the game.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10159711
That's also true. But then, what? What could it have been... Does anyone remember exactly what it was running at her in that scene? or is it just a blur?

[Anonymous No.]

>>10159711
she cared about her body

[Anonymous No.]

>>10159719
I have to say, that's a good point. It's strange that the most complicated and interesting character in the game is the only character that we never really get to know.

[Anonymous No.]

>It's like 12x better than Yume Nikki
Although I enjoyed the game, I must disagree with you. WH has great things (like the story and the scary atmosphere), and Yume Nikki has other great things (like the feeling that you could wander endlessly without going twice through the same place or the weird atmosphere that was actually not trying to be scary). They are not the same thing. People should stop comparing thing to YN just because they have a creepy atmosphere and are made in RPGMaker.
>>10159708
That's unlikely. The witch clearly says something like "I'm surprised you could trap me with my own powers", implying that when you begin the game, the Witch was already trying to scape and Viola had set everything. Some of the traps were probably there from the time Viola went to the witch, though.

Yume Nikki has a story, but it's a story you have to piece together and interpret yourself. A lot of media (particularly art films) try to do this and come off as stupid, but I think Yume Nikki did it right. Your playthrough and thoughts on Yume Nikki may be completely different to everyone else's.

This game, however, is just an ordinary A -> B game. It's fun, but I don't think comparing it to Yume Nikki is fair. They're different types of games, even if they're both a bit spooky and made with RPG Maker.

Those two are two completely different games, they only share the game engine. Yume Nikki is an aimless exploration game, with no story, no dialogues and the pleasure you get is completely aesthetic. The Witch's House is a more straightforward horror puzzle game with an actual story going on.

There were hints for these things. The order of the skulls is mentioned in one of the books, the one about a soldier. Hints about the code for the door are written on the walls in the same room the door is.
>>10163885
Do you have RPG Maker VX RTP intslled? If not, google it, the game requires it.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10164336

I read the book for the skulls, I don't feel like going back to check exactly what it was, but it was six directions, when there was only 4 spots to put skulls, it didn't give any hint as to where you were supposed to start (EG. Top right clockwise) and the order made no fucking sense. It didn't even match the actual order you had to put the skulls in anyway whatsoever.

Same with the door code. It said something about top right, top left, bottom right, etc etc. But what the fuck did that have to do at all with the code which was 6006? I tried counting the number of roses, and everything, still nothing.

I assumed both those two were just lost in translation. Although there may be something I was overlooking about those two.

There's different endings? I got the one were you get to the witches room, she chases you, you run out the house into the woods, then meet up with that guy who shoots her.

That's a pretty happy ending if you ask me. What was the other one?

[Anonymous No.]

>>10164414
It's a huge twist but if you have the game installed, all you have to do is go to the upper right room on the first floor in the escape scene and grab a item from the cupboard and exit. After that the true end will play instead of the good end. There's also a psydo third end I would reccomend youtubing.

How do you calculate the combination of the door?
I mean the numbers are totally nonsensical.
Bottom right: 6
Top right: Bottom right times 666 = 3996
Top left: Bottom right plus top right = 4002
Bottom left: Bottom right minus top left = -3996

How do you make the number 6006 from those numbers?

[Anonymous No.]

>>10164796
> Top right: Bottom right times 666
Wrong. It's bottom-left times 666. You can only enter one digit, so top-right can only be 0 and thus bottom-left must be 0 too. Top left is 0+6=6
