    This thread is for discussing visual novels (VNs).

    I'll get around to formatting the OP with stuff at some point.

    @wes Just finished Higurashi + Rei Man I’m going to miss that community of family/people

    Chapter 8 at the end was kinda all over the place, but it was fun. It’s still f*** Takano

    Gonna come back in a month or 2 to finish those Console Arcs & anime? Didn’t realize Higurashi had so many damn projects

    Umineko next?

    I was gonna mention to read Rei if you hadn't already. Thought the ending to that was better than the regular ending. Not that it was bad by any means, but I was expecting a lot more lol. Guess the mystery wasn't the main aspect of it past like ep 5 or 6, so I can kinda get the ending not being more "eventful".

    This playing in one of the last scenes

    Haven't checked out the console arcs or anime (heard Sotsu is awful lol). I just picked up Rei once the 07th mod came out for it and then I called it there.

    Umineko soon

    Those two are by far my favorites of any media (the Trails/Kiseki series is definitely up there as well), though I'm sure there's something out there you'd enjoy. Guess it depends on what you're looking for. I really enjoyed Higurashi and the Utawarerumono series and both are really highly regarded.

    I'm looking forward to this being released next week. The demo for it was great.

    Yeah regular ending was whatever, I did enjoy the action parts though unlike AINI, VNs always seem to lose steam at the end for some reason

    Trying to find a dl for the soundtrack rn

    Hirukowashi from Rei was hilarious, then there's Batsukoishi
    seems like 07th-mod isn't the way to go with this one (gonna miss changing the sprites on the fly, was starting to like switching to original ones for fun in Higu) Umineko Project it is!

    I only read Saikoroshi since it's the epilogue, but have seen the other two are somethin else

    For Umineko, I think Umineko Project is the "definitive" one, but I was more than fine with 07th mod. I prefer the translation they use since the UP one doesn't seem as literal, though it legit doesn't matter. I'm sure I'd be saying the opposite if I used UP lol. It is pretty crazy how much freedom they had with Higurashi. I did not expect all of the options/features in that after reading Umineko.

    You aren't wrong though, those original sprites have some charm to em
