Pick which visual novel I should play next


Alright, this is a new challenge for myself. I will take only the first 5 requests.

Whoever is reading this message can pick one visual novel from this list for me to play next. It can be a VN of any length or quality. It doesn't matter if you have no experience with VNs, you're free to select any from the categories never played, unfinished, or beaten.

  • 1. Leviathan: The Last Day of the Decade
  • 2. Root Double -Before Crime * After Days- Xtend Edition
  • 3. Highway blossoms
  • 4. Memory’s Dogma CODE:01
  • 5. Swordbreaker The Game Sound of Drop - fall into poison
  • all chosen, thank you!

It depends on the lengths of the games chosen, but I hope to finish this list approximately by the end of November, so in two months time.

How fun to let us choose! =)

I’ll pick Leviathan: The Last Day of the Decade. I bought this game a while ago because it looked intriguing, but (like so many games), I haven’t played it yet. I also have never heard a first-hand opinion on it, that I can recall.

I have several honorable mentions I was choosing among, also… ;-)

I’ve been wanting to play this forever, and yet like you I hadn’t managed to make time for it before!

I’d say Root Double -Before Crime * After Days- Xtend Edition because it seems really interesting (I have it on my backlog too) but if it’s too long you can play Higurashi When They Cry Hou - Ch.1 Onikakushi instead. My GF is currently reading it and really loves it.

GiseIIe

I’ll accept any length, so Root Double it is!

Highway blossoms :3
that has my vote cause roots already taken

GiseIIe

very good!!

Wolfedood

Daaaang so many good choices there!
Higurashi is great(as is Umineko) but seeing as it’s only ep.1 I’ll ignore it for now and instead go with Memory’s Dogma CODE:01 which is on my own “hopefully-to-be-played-soon” list :P

GiseIIe

Yeah, unfortunately for Higurashi I’ve still only got ep 1, I hope in a future bundle!

Wolfedood

Oh, even if a bundle happens not all of them are on Steam yet. There’s 3 more to come to close off the Kai “part” and then there’s another 3 for the Rei part. And then there’s the other side parts like Kizuna and Matsuri. Great and quite disturbing VNs but damn! There are too many! xD

I liked playing Swordbreaker The Game, interesting game in my opinion. Little grindy if you are after all achievements. :)

GiseIIe

I noticed that, hopefully I will be able to get them all since I’m aiming for 100%ing all my VNs

kiseli

Art style is great, so going to all rooms and getting killed in every way can be fun :D But when i played it i wasn’t in a mood to 100% it, might do it one day :)

Hi, today I installed Swordbreaker to play it, but it starts in Russian and when I’m on the initial menu no control (keyboard or mouse) is working. Do you have any idea how to select things in the menu? I’ve read that other people had this issue but the devs were of no help in past threads >:(

If I’m not able to play it, could you please choose a different visual novel for me to play instead of this? The list is always here. Thank you!

kiseli

Hmm, i didn’t have that problem. Intro was in Russian but in menu later it was easy to change language between Russian and English.
Checking games files if there is option to change config didn’t help, but reading community forums with broken English and Russian(studied it long ago so i can understand a little) pointed out that maybe resolution is the problems. Some say that 1024 x 768 is default resolution for the game and that there it should work ok with it, also i found this fix

And if nothing helps to get it working properly i don’t mind choosing different game :)

EDIT: Just checked your VN list again. How about Sound of Drop - fall into poison - if Swordbreaker is not working? I don’t have a game, but i heard plenty of nice and interesting things about it, and even tried to win it multiple times on SG :D

GiseIIe

Thank you, I will see tomorrow if I’m able to make it work, otherwise I’ll play Sound of Drop instead.

OH NO, I didn’t make it in time!
I don’t want to be a negative nathan, but Leviathan: the Last Day of the Decade, is abysmal. It’s one of the few VNs (and the ONLY one with achievements) that I just gave up on. The art is pretty, but the translation was so atrocious I just couldn’t… I couldn’t do it. Just go in prepared!

Highway Blossoms was cute as hell, though!

GiseIIe

It’ll be for next time!
How bad could this translation be?? We’ll find it out on the next episode…!

Yay for Highway Blossoms!
