Saya no Uta is a visual novel. See link for general details (spoiler alert).

I just finished the third number.

oh

my

god

What a gut-wrenching story. I could say a million things about it, write entire essays, but, I'm going to try to be simple for once and simply say it was an incredible VN. Philosophical, romantic, psychological, I don't even.

I really need to finish the other endings. Maybe I'll expand on this later, but, really: Saya no Uta is an incredible VN. It has some flaws, namely a few instances of repetition, but it's definitely a visual novel worth reading/playing (lulwut).

Phobos showed me it :D

I'm surprised Phobos didn't make this thread first.

Fuck yea VN thread.



None.

Are you sure about that?

You... WHY? You should have told me you were reading this waaaaaaaaaay before man. And yes, you need to get all the endings. I would suggest turning on the option to skip already read text and loading a save file where you have to make a decision.

I only started to finish reading this at midnight. :3

So you weren't online. :awesome:

Are you sure about that?

I knew I should have gone online on wii. Extra affection points to anyone who can find a novel similar or better than Saya No Uta.

Let me show you how to hump without making love.

I always found it to be a bit dark, but touching none the less. I still laugh about the cannibalism scene though :lol:

The music however, made 90% of the game though.



None.

To that, I say:




Also, it is supposed an English version is coming out... Some time in the future. Censor should be removed, seeing how the game would not be distributed from Japan and then translated :P

Wait, so, the English version won't have censored pictures????

what

Are you sure about that?

Japan has a ban on certain items. When translation groups purchase items from Japan, we usually get them censored. Think of the micro censor bars on Nounai Kanojo, for example: That is one of the methods they use to avoid the regulations.

...I think that is the way it works. For all I know, when eroges get to America, the censor is removed because we do not have bans.

@Phobos

No K-ON or Girls dead monster? Wow. Noob.



None.

Question: Just went back through it and is it always left unclear as to what happened to Ougi, Saya's "father?"



None.

What do you mean? He died and the doctor-lady and Fuminari's friend-rival found his skeleton. (I DON'T REMEMBER THEIR NAMES. LUL)

Are you sure about that?

What I want to know is what Saya really looks like.

Didn't we get to see parts of Saya when she raped Yoh?

-

I see Saya as a pile of mud-goop with barbed bones jutting out of it randomly. It's pretty underwhelming.

Those were just tentacles.

You don't understand. The story is quality stuff and this should have been a VN thread not just one specific one. Their are many VN's that are just as good without hentai that make you so sad ;_;

Albums from animes. GDM is from Angel beats and you KNOW K-On has an album out. You had all that other J-weeaboo music.



None.

Are you sure about that?

SNU scenes deal with things I would rather not mess with. Yoh's scenes made me feel bad. Well, the story in general is depressing: If this thread was made because of the eroge, we might as well talk about other vns which are all about it.

And yes, Hydro, turn this into a VN thread. Nitro+ has good work out there.

Oh_Man -- whereas just "press X to get 50 health back" is pretty mindless

Oh_Man -- because it adds anotherr level of player decision-making where u dont wanna walk too far away from the medic or u lose healing value

Oh_Man -- initially I thought it was weird why is he still using the basic pre-EUD medic healing system, but it's actually genius

Vrael shouted: I almost had a heart attack just thinking about calculating all the offsets it would take to do that kind of stuff
With the modern EUD editors, I don't think they're calculating nearly as many offsets as you might imagine. Still some fancy ass work that I'm sure took a ton of effort
[12:51 am]
Oh_Man -- definitely EUD
