VN Overload

I generally hate VNs, but are there any on Steam that are more like the Ace Attorney series with a focus on puzzles, logic, and observation?

What's a good VN to help me get over a break up?

Only if you count dating sims.

why would you look to steam for VN's?

DR is Ace attorney but with extra anime
Umineko is similar but has 0 gameplay

What the name of OP's pic?

she looks like an evil bitch

Well, I'm not a retard posting on mobile, so I figured it out with the first result of a reverse image search.

Those aren't vns you dumbfuck.

Danganronpa

Some new VN released today.
store.steampowered.com/app/585890/

>Umineko
>set up endless locked room puzzles and myseries with the promise of an answer
>don't worry about it because magic something something fuck you

In terms of mysery VNs on Steam OP your own real option is Dangan Ronpa. Kara no Shoujo is a murder mystery VN, but with far more focus on story than gameplay. Nothing else really compares to AA.

Is it any good?

>OELVNs
Into le bin

>evn

>It's around 40k in length.
what does it mean

Professor Layton isn't quite a VN but it has a lot of dialogue.

Ebi-hime's writing isn't bad by any standard.
40,000 words.

Holy fuck this

>mfw people were calling Sengoku Rance a VN back when it was popular

aviary attorney

The first 2 zero escape games are gonna be released on steam soon

There is a precedent for calling AA a VN since 95% of the game is scrolling through dialog. Sengoku Rance, not so much.

>Sekai Project
Buying VNs
Nope

>I didn't get Umineko: the post
The entire fucking premise is that you can either decide that it was all magic or not. You can solve Umineko without saying it was magic, and it has been.

Dumb Danganronpa poster.

>Sekike Projew aka Sekickstart our Project
>OELVN
>40k in length
>Most importantly, contains a cute catgirl!

I don't play VNs because they don't let me fuck two hot chicks, then split them down the middle, combine their halves, then fuck the new third woman I made out of the two of them.

>Play some Yu-No
>Get passed the intro parts
>Fucking HDD dies and eats my save along with everything else

Should I give this a proper go?

Just do it instead of being a huge fucking faggot and posting on Sup Forums.

Don't listen to what this retard says, OP.
Umineko would be right up your alley, despite it containing zero gameplay. If you thought AA used twisted logic, you haven't seen nothing yet.

This tbqh, I dont think anyone could name one VN where a cute girl gets crushed by a water tank.

YU-NO is fucking great man, the OST is stellar, if you barely got past the intro then it should be pretty quick to catch up to where you were by holding down that skip key.

I know I had to restart a couple times since I fucked up my route, and it doesn't take too long to catch up.

I think that might happen in euphoria

Dangan Ronpa 1&2 and Zero Time Dilemma.

Also Higurashi and Umineko because they're fucking good even though there's no gameplay.

what kind of VN is YU-NO?

>Umineko
No please user don't summon it

Bruh, all I'm looking for is a VN where I can bully and beat a qt3.4 submissive and bang her at her lowest.

Point and click with parallel universe/time travel mechanic

There's a new 'when they cry' coming out.
Please look forward to it!

>make an impossible puzzle
>imply that there is a solution but never provide enough evidence to form a solid conclusion

I-it's up to you to decide!

Try Seacats.

Guess I'll get to it then.

>waaaaaahhh why isn't the solution served on a silver platter even though it was already served on a silver platter in the manga
t. goat

Play it with a guide, turn off the VAs and enjoy. It's really the pinnacle of old-school VNs in terms of production values. OST is stellar, ethical questions are raised. All in all it's pretty damn good.

How hard is it to not give these people attention, bud?

>twisted
That's a fancy way of saying "bullshit".

It's a traditional point n click adventure, but pretty dialogue heavy.

It's fucking great, it features pseudo-science like time travel, parallel universes etc.

Also, you can fuck your stepmom, among others.

>you can fuck your stepmom

I thought the MC was a grill

Get Kara no Shoujo.

>Also, you can fuck your stepmom, among others.

so its hentai? but its on consoles... so which version should I play then? old or the new remaster art one

>everything is interpretation
>no narrative planning
>2deep4u

No surprising seeing as his friend dead while he was writing this garbage. He must have given up but everyone is willing to gobble down his shit after Higurashi.

Having sex with his step mother is the least offensive thing that the MC does.

Well, you'd be mistaken. Most promotional/marketing of VN's is about the girls, not the male protagonist.

who /r11patricianmasterrace/ here

It's pretty damn fucking good. It's better than E17 for sure

I would agree with you except E17 had an ending.

BUT WHO WAS BABY

E17 characters were much worse

The Nonary Games comes out on March 24th. It has both 999 and its sequel VLR. I highly recommend it, it's my favorite series.

ded babbies

Right when I read that the song came on

Please don't set him up for disappointment when he gets to mind.HACK//.

Like hell I'm going to spoil the fact that you fuck not one, but BOTH your daughters, and one you know is your daughter.

Majikoi

Or the part where he eats his dragon friend for sustenance.

>steam

...

Try old point and click like Syberia

Grisaia.

Eiyuu Senki.

Take over the world, with historical figures turned into female warriors for you to conquer. You can get it with or without the porn, too.

nekopara. no, seriously

Little Busters. It teaches you that bitches are indeed whores, bros 4 life.

>Sekai Project
Nope. Never. No chance.
The art is surprisingly cute, but n ever Sekai Project.

My dream is for them to bankrupt. And now that Front Wing has left Sekai Project, and now that Winged Cloud has left Sekai Project (again), I am hoping that they might actually crash for real finally.

Sekai Project going down would benefit everyone.

Nah.

>play vn
>aw yiss time to fuck some bit-

I wanna Kyousuke to fuck Riki in the ASS

This one has shallow crime puzzles

Hey there.

What's your beef with them?

>heavily censors English releases
>releases a porn game with all the porn cut out, left the shitty story
>translations are mostly terrible
>releases all ages versions of games, then releases the porn version, the version most people want, months later
>starts Kickstarters for already fan translated games, and THEY GET FUNDED
>hasn't delivered on most of the physical items from KS
>releases two versions of a visual novel, one with voice and one without, the one with voice costing more, while the fan translation was the voiced version
>literally the only reason they're still alive is because of Nekopara and nekoworks, and the Kickstarter money for the OVA
>constantly shit on their fans

As much as I hate to believe, are JAST and Mangagamer our only hope?

Unironically yes, what a fucking time to be alive, never thought I'd see the day when JAST and Mangagamer were actually the best VN localizers.

Luckily a lot of companies are skipping the middle man and localizing their VNs themselves.

That's even furrier than the OP. Or scalier or whatever.

computer theory reporting in

Muv-Luv, including Alternative

NO

IT STILL DOESN'T MAKE SENSE FOR THE DISC TO BE LIKE THAT

Danganronpa's ending and crappy villain ruins everything too yet people are suggesting that, what's the issue? As far as the ride is concerned Umineko's a lot better, DR doesn't really do anything well beyond UI design and soundtrack

Katawa Shoujo

How is the Demonbane VN? It gets memed so much on /m/ without anyone seemingly actually having read it that I'm sorta curious about it

A fucking dragon dating simulator has a better time travel plot than Zero Time Dillema.

Better yet just play 999 and VLR when they come out on steam in March.

...

IT'S NOT A FUCKING SIMULATION AND THE DISC DOESN'T HOLD KOKORO'S PERSONALITY IN IT AAAAAAAA

have a high-res smug

I can't stand Umineko, but you are seriously mistaken if you think DR's OST is better.

I appreciate the gift
How does satoru accomplish a memory transplantation on himself? Neither he nor enomoto are brain surgeons and this is a bit too practical of a problem to sweep away with "that guy" did it. But... if his memories were merely data on a computer, this could be accomplished simply AND remotely. Checkmate witches

Because it's clear that creating an infinite loop scenario where future events affect past ones will draw in a being that can exist at any point (i.e. you playing the game) and the memory transplant is you having only your own knowledge and no other sources of knowing shit

this is the commonly accepted idea for a reason i'm just saying

This. Umineko's god tier soundtrack is one of its saving graces.

Didn't say it was better, just said that it was good

I'm sure there's plenty of VNs with that. Gyaku Oudou, for example.

I understand and accept that idea, but it causes some questions: Why was satoru surprised to see yuni at sphia if he had taken our memories? He would be fully aware that yuni is there already. He also doesn't seem to remember events that transpired in the future such as people getting killed in sphia even though we know those things will happen. It seems to me that someone/thing picked and choosed the memories from kokoros route like selecting files on a computer and gave them to satoru rather than just "that guy", "the reader" or whatever doing it.

Because it makes no sense for Yuni to be there in SPHIA since he already exists in a previously established point - the plane and cabin, the mountain area in 2011. There should only be one of him. This is similar to why Self doesn't recognize the name "Suzukage Hotori", because she was never supposed to be at SPHIA as part of the plan. It only knows how things should be at the instant that the plan begins, and at that instant Yuni's room is empty and Hotori isn't there, Inubushi is.

As for not remembering people getting killed, that's because a reset is just that - a reset. No more than vague knowledge, such as the identities of people in the cabin, remains past starting over.

>40k words in length
lol that's like half a chapter of higurashi

It's pretty good, just don't get hyped for some multi-universal ultra defender of justice Demonbane, that only happens in the sequel, which AFAIK is untranslated.

Worth a read though.
