I agree with you, but actually Atelier Sakura isn't like this before, I don't know what happened it seems that their game is losing quality when they changed CG artist, check their older games, it's much better and hotter.Atelier Sakura is to NTR visual novel studios what Burger King is to a 4 Michellin Star restaurant.
Their's games are so generic it's not even hot.
seems like the main issue was pure volume effecting quality, and a lack of writers. Early on they had a couple writers afaik and releases were between 2-4 months with the same writer. Nowadays its almost always the same writer (one of their main quit like 2-3ish yr ago and cited burnout) releasing a new title every month and 90% of titles is ntr or nts. Imagine if you had to make 12 new and different stories a year all within the same genre, honestly its mind numbing. So all we can do is avoid the slop and hopefully catch the bangers. Also length is also an issue as the game length leads to faster progression and lack of character building which imo is essential for any NTR/NTS. Look at their best ones, Marina was 3 games, and Mayumi was 2 games.I agree with you, but actually Atelier Sakura isn't like this before, I don't know what happened it seems that their game is losing quality when they changed CG artist, check their older games, it's much better and hotter.
Atelier Sakura started going down in quality after the marina and Hosaka / after story.I agree with you, but actually Atelier Sakura isn't like this before, I don't know what happened it seems that their game is losing quality when they changed CG artist, check their older games, it's much better and hotter.
Not only the story, but it seems that the sex scene now is boring and short, just 1 cg and a few dialog and then it ends, I guess maybe they pay higher to the new artist than their old one and they can't afford it anymore, they are not even making a female pov anymore like what they did in the past (you know the one that you can unlock in the extra replay gallery after completing the game)Atelier Sakura started going down in quality after the marina and Hosaka / after story.
Meanwhile, I'm still waiting for the translation of the 1st Soredemo Tsuma by Lune.
And that sht is soooo long to translate that I perfectly understand why no one wants to translate it for free.
I mean it's around 15 years now that the game was first released, the only time I ever got proof that someone was doing a fan translation was back around AIM, and that was long a** time ago.
But Atelier is still better off than Appetite, how many games have they had now that are basically 30-40min (20min if you're at reading) playthroughs? I'm sure it's past 200...
It MC the one that energy and erection have declinedThe description is a bit difficult to follow.
The main character, Tomoaki Kasu (MC), grew up in this town with his childhood friends Naomi (FML) and Kotaro (MFriend1) from a young age.
However, when Kotaro (MF1) graduated from school, he suddenly left the town, leaving two people behind.
A few years later-Tomoaki (MC) married Naomi (FML) and lived together in a new home that had been renovated.
My (MC) work was going well and my life was generally peaceful, but recently, Kazuaki’s (MFriend2?) energy and erection have declined for some reason despite his (MF2?) unchanging love for his wife (wife of MF2?), and he (MC?) has made his (FML) wife feel good enough in his sexual life. The only problem was that I didn’t …
I dunno, I'm lost. There seems to be either 4 or 5 people mentioned here, but I still can't follow the logic. Anyone that can help explain this?
I know! It's horrible to base a scenario on a detestable character who is so savagely damaged that he only gets hard when he sees his loving and blameless wife being abused by essentially rapists. So I usually rewrite it in my mind to a happier, more loving plot. Old limp dick finally goes to a doctor to get his dysfunction diagnosed and learns he has an inoperable brain tumor and just a couple of months to live. So he is trying to find a next mate to take care of his wife and give her the child she's deperate to have. It's a much more "Hallmark Movie" plot except the cuck dies horribly and the innocent wife lives happily ever after with her new husband and a bunch of their kids.They always use the same shitty plot. Hey childhood friend please sleep with my wife. It wont be wierd. I just really love her so much that I dont mind letting you slowly take her away by fucking her brains out only for her to stay with me in the end now damaged goods. And we all lived crappily ever after the end. Jeez I know you can only do so much with NTR but at least try to come up with something new.
Maybe I canSince the western Devs follow the same pattern, I guess we need a Muslim MC who will NTR all western and Japanese MCs.
In fact, you can do a lot with NTR, but some aspect of it are underused.They always use the same shitty plot. Hey childhood friend please sleep with my wife. It wont be wierd. I just really love her so much that I dont mind letting you slowly take her away by fucking her brains out only for her to stay with me in the end now damaged goods.
