see this could be 2017 (when i played xbc on wii), 2020 (when xbcde came out) or 2022 (xbc3). So many variables i just cant stop posting different things
THIS IS SUCH AN INSANE SCREENSHOT OMGGGG blast from the past……. I think i started in october/november 2016, then put it down for a bit, but i was borrowing a friends copy so in march thru may 2017 i played like 80% of the game so i could give it back lol
nice!! I think this is probably actually the first post of yours I saw/why I first followed you lol, I was replaying XC1 on the n3DS in 2015-16 and was vicariously following others' first playthroughs as well haha
looks like I also have this one in my xenoblade folder if u want another blast from the past lol (I think you deleted this one though? I'll delete if you want)
Kinda curious if you know of many good VNs that don't have choices. Really like Higurashi for that reason, as branching choices just make me anxious about making the "right choice"
mahoyo, higanbana, ciconia (jk its never getting finished), seabed, planetarian, TECHNICALLY utawarerumono series (its really not considering theres gameplay elements and choices, but the choices all lead to the same ending.) no choice vns are called “kinetic novels” if you wanna look up more!!
read higurashi first if you didnt bc it makes umineko better. My fav vns are utawarerumono 3 (so reading 1-3), remember11, higanbana, the house in fata morgana, and if you like otome games then the psychedelica series is great
Higu has a lot of connecting bits between multiple characters and locations but also is a good warmup for umineko, cuz its only 40-50 hours compared to uminekos 100-200, and you can figure out if you like ryukishi’s writing style or not before you dive into something like umineko
If you play higurashi (and depending on how you play aka if you use 07thmod to get console sprites) theres like 4-5 characters from umineko who reappear there
Hiiii may I recommend some visual novels? Slay the Princess and Scarlett Hollow are both freaky visual novels made by Black Tabby Games. They both have demos in case you wanna try before you buy. They both also HEAVILY involve branching paths and choices that matter. I absolutely love both games <3
im lowkey like how hugh jackman is a theatre guy who went on the sidequest to be xmen wolverine and now most people know him for wolverine but he truly shines when hes dancin and singin his lil heart out onstage. but with halo and visual novels
I dont even mean this in a mean way but this is so shocking to get this question cuz i was drawing ciconia even during the large fandom droughts weve been having
The Hoshizora in your handle gave away your love for VNs to me (idk if its a reference to Hoshizora no memoria but thats what I think of when I sees it!)
lol i read this as hoshizora meteo (vn writer) at first, it’s not a reference to either , i used to have hoshizora as part of my pixiv name when i uploaded there as a wee baby. it was so long ago and that account is nuked by now but i kept the name here

glad i own a bunch of this already (utawarerumono 1-3 and fata morgana)
