Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.
Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?

Has anyone tried The Fruit of Grisaia? I know there's an anime but it's probably shit, as VN to anime adaptations usually are (except Higurashi and Fate UBW). That, and the Steam version came after the anime and apparently adds a bunch of extra story content and voicework, in addition to upgrading the graphics (the h-scenes are also gone in the Steam version, but I don't mind when there's that much new stuff).

I really want to try it, though it's $40 and I don't have the money for it at the moment. Is it as good as the reviews say? Keep in mind that I haven't played the original either.

I hated the first one, really liked the second, and thought the third was OK.

I started Grisaia a couple weeks ago. The common route is long as shit and gets kind of boring after awhile but so far I think the routes that actually matter make up for it. I started with Michiru's route and I'm enjoying it so far (her and Amane are the best girls by far, so naturally I'd choose them first). I find Sachi's "personality" very boring, but Makina is awesome. And Sakaki is okay I guess.

Gahahahahaha, beat Sengoku Rance

The plot was pretty good, the music's good, and the gameplay is decent, if kinda complicated and with something of a learning curve. Rance himself is a nice change of pace from the typical nice guy protagonist without being an edgelord, if nothing else. He's pretty fun despite being a dick.

I know I'm several years late to the party on this one but it was good, more people should play it.

...Is what I would say, but I think I'm the last person who'd play it that would, so there's nobody left. Too bad, you're all missing out.

Now if you excuse me I heard new game+ has a Kenshin route

I just finished Amane's route in Grisaia. Holy shit, that was actually *really* good. Definitely got some feels towards the end too.

I have three routes left now (Makina, Sachi, and Sakaki).

Harmonia, a new visual novel by Key, (a short kinetic VN like Planetarian) is up on Steam Greenlight. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=535913197&insideModal=0&requirelogin=1

Please vote and show your support if you can. We need to encourage the release of Key VNs in the west.

Hope Little Busters is next after Clannad. (Clannad is supposed to be released on Steam next month)

Oooh. Rewrite was awesome and I still have no idea why it never got localized. I'll try this out too if it takes off.

I really need to finish Grisaia.

Cool. I might get it.

I miss reading Grisaia. I'm still on Sachi's route, but TitS SC has pretty much taken priority over any other game lol

You know something is wrong when even I'm agreeing with Jackal.

You're just both too weak for Rance.

Also [radio edit] I finished the last route

Goodbye Rance ;__;

Managed to pick up the Fate/Stay Night Realta Nua soundtrack for about 900 yen. I didn't play F/SN with the Realta Nua OST before, so it's my first time hearing a lot of the tracks. It's fun imagining what they'd be like in context, and guessing where each part plays.

I started Yumina the Ethereal (I'm only two years late!) because I make poor decisions when I'm bored.
