Some Dating Simulators that aren't Doki Doki Literature Club
Right now practically the only dating simulator franchise for straight men is an eroge series called Lovely x Cation, and some standalone SFW ones have been released in the past decade or so. You know the guy who married a video game character? She's from the dating sim Love Plus by Konami. The 3DS version (which has only a partial translation so far) is said to be even better. The original DS version has been fully translated into English.
If you wanna play the girl and be a Yandere you can do Yandere Simulator
The classic adult dating sim Doukyuusei got a remake recently, and it's also getting an official translation that will probably release later this year. (Unfortunately if you prefer the old-school feel of the original and don't know Japanese you're gonna be stuck playing the remake). I've never played it, but apparently it's really good because, unlike other dating sims/galge of the time, sex and virginity weren't treated like a big deal (back then NTR wasn't so popular, not sure if it even existed), and the girls were taken more seriously. Plus, apparently the dialogue is pretty good compared to modern galge (at least that's what a reviewer said).
https://vndb.org/v185 If you can stand the horrible interface and some bugs, you can play True Love, another classic dating sim (I think this one got licensed back in the day) right now:
https://www.asenheim.org/true-love/I remember this one mostly because it had a gay ending although there's no sex in it.You can find a guide easily.

On the VNDB the tags Late Sexual Content, Low Sexual Content and Pure Love Story 'usually' are applied to VNs without any non-consensual sex acts. The sex in these stories generally isn't a big part of the plot, if at all.

People working on companies like Key explicitly said that the porn in their games is just because they feel the need to make porn to appeal to the eroge fanbase and sell shit, so the sex scenes are forced with complete disregard for the story (so yes almost every sex scene is pretty much rape), I remember them saying that they feel much more comfortable with all ages releases because they feel more "natural", this also seems to apply to a lot of other companies, I remember Leaf (To heart) saying something similar.
There are also games (nukige) that are explicitly for porn, they don't give a shit about the story that is only there as an excuse to rape your imouto and all her friends.

There was this eroge I played called homeless schoolgirl (
https://vndb.org/v4767), basically a…homeless schoolgirl…she
gets abused by her stepdad, she escapes from home and later while searching for food a gang of thugs rapes her and makes her their sex slave, and also they make her cook for them, this happens for quite a while, one day she finds a puppy and befriends him and she's happy for a while, the thugs aren't happy ofc so they torture the dog and kill him in front of her eyes. Secretly she was using some flowers that she found to make a very powerful poison, she uses that poison to kill all the gang members while saying how wonderful is to see them suffer and begging for their lives while they die a horrible death, then she finally finds peace. It was satisfying and very short.

There's a lot of nukige about a dude who gets revenge on girls by raping and torturing them. And a lot where the protagonist is just a psychopath who rapes random women. For example, the "Rape! Rape! Rape!" series. Or other eroge where degenerate shit is casual as fuck, like the 0verflow universe (that dude who impregnated like 4 generations of his own offspring and like half of the cast is descended from him).
But there are dark eroge where you get a bad ending where you're killed or something equally horrible happens to the protagonist if you act like an asshole. I like those more. One that combines this kinda shit. "Minikui Mojika no Ko" (
https://vndb.org/v21667) about a fugly dude
that can read thoughts and uses his power to get revenge (AKA rape) all the girls who used to torture him. At one of the endings he gets raped back by one of his victims,
as in she literally puts a strap on and starts fucking him in the ass while laughing and smiling. No.10148
>>10143Sounds eerily similar to Metamorphosis and the dog part reminded me of that part of Bible Black Gaiden (or Elfen Lied). As for the disturbing content, I think it's just a way to shock the viewer and make their crap more interesting to the niche it is made for. It certainly helps, but it almost never means it's well executed.
This reviewer gets it:
https://vndb.org/w2477#review>Conveniently, despite starving, she doesn't appear to suffer from malnutrition and has a flawless body. She also seems to be always perfectly clean and, despite being raped without protection from countless men, she never gets pregnant or acquires an STD. So, let's be honest, the reality isn't the focus here. This isn't a documentary story about a harsh reality. It's not trying to discuss a social issue.>What it does is use cheap emotional manipulation and shocking images only for the sake of being shocking. There isn't any message or even a purpose in being shocking. The story actually says absolutely nothing. It's just a series of scenes that gets quickly boring and predictable.>Actually, there's one purpose in all this stuff: fetish. I know many people may think that definitively, in no way, someone would feel aroused by this, but… Yes, there's. There're numerous ways to portrait a naked body and a sexual abuse act. However, the artist chooses to always draw them in an erotic style, putting her naked, flawless, and fragile body on the center of the screen while violent and dangerous men point their erect penises to her as weapons. Even if you felt too sad to be horny, it doesn't change the fact that this is a visual novel that offers only sexual images to dark fetishes. And, yes, that means that this is a nukige. I've seen far worse shit from eroge tbh (starless, euphoria etc) and yeah it's fucked up, the japs seem much more used to this kind of shit, and I guess don't act on it as much as burgers might. Still the aforementioned are interesting, longer and have better writing and production value, like I said. Although yeah, they're still made to shock and (shamefully) arouse it's audience.
This VN sounds worse than the nukige I played where a bunch of guys
were held hostage in a school by a serial killer and forced to fuck each other and sometimes do even more disturbing sex acts. Then it turns out that the serial killer wasn't the actual killer, he was the twin brother of one of the hostages, and the twin brother was the actual murderer, who developed a split personality when they were both raped as children. The fake murderer brother was also raped when he was in the military. But you don't find out any of that without going through absolutely insane endings first, many of which make little sense and involve some or all of the characters being brutally murdered while in a state of mindbreak. For example, in one of those endings, the protagonist becomes a sadist and forms some sort of cult with the other hostages, then does a weird ritual where they're all standing with boners and staring at the moon, and then put some orange peels on their dicks. It was so laughably bad and surreal that it must have been intended to be funny. In another ending where the protagonist becomes a sadist, he makes everyone kill each other, it makes absolutely no sense. It also turns out that the Homeless Schoolgirl author got the idea from this autobiographical movie about a high school boy who becomes homeless:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1194660/ It seems that the creator of the nukige, someone who only makes rape nukige by the way (so the posts praising the story are totally wrong about this not being a rape fetish nukige), wondered what would happen if he took the basic premise of the movie and the protagonist were a girl (who, of course, gets raped non-stop, because she is a girl). Sick fucks like these are always looking for any convoluted excuse to make rape porn, basically.
Japanese culture is super repressed in actual interactions, and that probably is the only reason they're not as crimed up as, say, Britain. I feel it's got something to do with how alienated they are. Even if they have """super-low crime rates""", they also have terrifying rape-murders in real life and all this fucked up shit in fiction. And even if it's supposed to be some sort of commentary or to make the audience empathize with the victims, it's portrayed in an erotic manner; Japanese otaku are really fucked up (and then their Western equivalents try to imitate them). Funnily enough, they also created imageboard culture, so… yeah take that as you will.

>>10213Yeah but when I said "porn" I meant nukige specifically.

Although the reason TM 1 and 2 have never been translated is mostly that they have absolutely brutal code (at least according to people who have attempted translations), which is common for a lot of Konami games from around that time. Not so much a lack of interest. I still think 1 and 4 might get fan translations some day, but 2 seems like it's too big to be worth the effort.
No.11067
>>11063Also, I was losing hope in whether they would release a new game. When I saw the announcement, I couldn't believe it (the last main game was released in 2010, TokiRes was 2013). And just as I expected, a year or so later they revealed that it would be on the Switch.
Last year there would've been an event (after years of not doing it IIRC) called Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side DAYS. They only did these yearly events about 3 times before, and released DVDs of said events. Basically, besides the voice actor stuff and the merch, the main attraction is a series of special in-game dates on a massive screen, where all the attendees get to vote on the choices from their seats, and the boys that are featured are also chosen by fans beforehand (I think they try to do different characters each year, so the most popular ones already appeared in the first couple DAYS events).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmH89ctnbwIhttps://greenfirefist.tumblr.com/post/92330006968https://tokimemogirlsside.fandom.com/wiki/Tokimeki_Memorial_Girl%27s_Side_DAYSLast year's DAYS event had to be postponed due to COVID and it finally happened this year in June. The theme was sports festival. Since no one seems to be uploading the DVDs online, I guess I'll have to import them myself someday if I want to know what else happens in them.
I like this franchise so much that I tried to archive as much of the other games' official websites as possible. Unfortunately, many things were impossible to archive because they used Flash a lot for those sites.
This is the animated opening. Every game has had one, although 3's OP was included not in any version of the game like the others, but in a bonus DVD (which is bullshit). Anyway, I don't know if it's just me, but compare this new OP to the other 3, and you can see the animation is lower quality (somewhat inconsistent drawings, sometimes it doesn't match the in-game artstyle, etc., it kinda gives me a Pokémon Sun and Moon vibe).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNaDDFsTqTkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OHYuDduZVMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZkUOWVdQbkThe artstyle in the game is also inferior to the previous games IMO. I don't know what the hell happened, it's supposed to be the same artist in every game.
>>11065>I think otome games are basically the present of romance games already tbhI guess you're right. A lot of recent otome visual novels are getting translated. Unfortunately that also means that most otome fans have never even heard of games like TMGS that are more like actual games. The dating simulator genre might be dead. It's a shame, really, I think "stat-raisers" are fun.
>they're very popular while bishoujo stuff only seems to get more and more niche (well, in the West, at least).Actually, I think it's becoming more well-known but as nothing more than a punchline and cheap fap material on Steam. Serious galge is probably becoming more niche though.
Also I was wrong, there
is a recent Tokimeki Memorial game, but it's a mobage spin-off called Tokimeki Idol. That sucks.
>Although the reason TM 1 and 2 have never been translated is mostly that they have absolutely brutal codeOh yeah, that's right. 4 should be easy to hack and translate, I read somewhere that PSP games were easier to mess with. Also, it's not literally TM but Love Plus for the DS is said to be pretty good and it has a fan translation (it appears that the TMGS1 translator helped with that project too).

That's kanji actually, but basically, the most common pronoun in VN titles like this one is either "boku" 僕 or "ore" 俺, both masculine pronouns. Not VNs but look at the difference between the popular series "Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai" and "Watashi ga Motenai no wa Dou Kangaetemo Omaera ga Warui". "Watashi" 私 is a more neutral pronoun and in informal speech it can also come off as feminine; it's also the first pronoun you're taught in Japanese as a Second Language, the "default" pronoun. That's what makes it so obvious that whoever came up with the Japanese title or the logo used Google Translate.
As for VN examples, look at these lists, you'll notice that most if not all of the "watashi no" titles are "said" from a female's point of view, as opposed to the "boku no" or "ore no" ones.

So I will bump with a little review of the part I've played so far of pic related (english ver)
It's not the first time I played this, I tried to play it last year when I was still trying to learn Japanese but I never finished it or even got too far from what I remember, still playing it again it's quite a bit worse than I imagined or remembered, the mystery is not really interesting at all, it's another "demons and shiet are among humans and interact with them" story (except with a bit of police/mystery drama) the characters are average and not really charismatic, and the first sex scene is way too early, that and by judging by the main girl clothes actually the ONLY girl because you can only fuck her (Anneliese) in the entire game you would probably think this is some low quality generic nukige when it's a bit more than that.
Then there's E-mote, it's not the first E-mote game I play and it's decent enough here during normal game, yet I think there are way better implementations of it, so the quality seems to vary a lot between games (in fact due to the nature of the game only one character uses it here) maybe they charge per character and not per game and they wanted to save money, who knows? But as almost always it gets very ugly during sex scenes, the E-mote shit looks quite bad in sex scenes and it's not exclusive to this game (but I noticed it particularly here) it looks like they're just stretching and shrinking a lewd image and the result is poor and awkward, I would rather have static images.
So far the game is quite mediocre, and fails to catch my attention from the beginning (complete opposite to what happened in games like Cartagra or Swan song with good mystery plots that got my attention immediately) I will keep playing it because I've heard good things about the later part of the game when you start exploring the past and personalities of the different "angels" that wander around the cursed department but from what I remember the personalities themselves are still mediocre at first glance, specially when they consist of typical lolibait with pantsu (but weirdly no sex) a Japanese nun stereotype and an angel obsessed with growing weed for some reason? I will continue the review after I play more or finish it.
Still I can clearly see why a lot of eroge companies went bankrupt during the last decade and the few ones that didn't are trying to keep alive with that DMM subscription shit that is basically a Netflix for eroge, paying $70-80 (the average price of eroge in Japan) for games like these is an absolute rip-off and not worth it at all, In fact I would say that except in the games released by already well respected companies (Key, Nitro+, Innocent Gray etc) you're much more likely to be dissapointed by a newly released game instead of satisfied, it only took Otakus like 30 years to realize that the majority of lolibait waifu ero-games are an absolute scam, who would have imagined?

Reading a little about it, it seems to have some decent ideas which it takes somewhat seriously –
pursuing a genuine romance with a monster who is dead set on destroying your universe is at least a _potentially_ interesting premise – but it's dampened by the fact that it's dressed up in so much irony and uses the "starts out as a silly moege but turns dark" trope which isn't as novel as Western devs seem to think.

A lot of police are like that here in Burgerland today
>the news headlines which are borderline polshit And if you can't tell they're very satirical, literal Robocop tier propaganda that's blatantly obvious for a reason. This also isn't reactionary by the definition of reactionary.
>tons of caricatures that they like to make It's a dystopian VN where everyone is some sort of miserable asshole, including the player character, the player is a caricature of a NEET, the landlord is a caricature of a typical slumlord, others are walking story tropes, and blatantly self-aware tropes at that.
>some transphobic stuff and some anti Semitic stuff I don't recall any of that, and I've played through 2 different routes.
>inspired by schizo 'eat ze bugs' type thought than any coherent ideologyI mean it's a cyberpunk dystopia world, that's kinda the point, and moreover we see it from the Point of View of a character born and raised in this world, their behavioral options make sense -

I am by no means some schizo carnivore, I've never complained about eating vegetables, hell I like them, it's a normal thing outside of burgerland. But veganism, soy-mania and other nonsense about replacing meat is blatant First-World bullshit meant to distract from corporations creating the majority of world carbon emissions, (not fucking cow farts) and other corporate awfulness in the food business. Has everyone forgotten how Nestle pushed artificial milk in Africa?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1977_Nestl%C3%A9_boycott?useskin=vector >such as not torturing animals Moralistic bullshit. Meat sourcing can be done ethically and there are methods of painless killing, which are usually used to begin with. Meat is necessary for proper development of the brain and body. Part of the reason human brains developed is because of the consumption of meat by early hominids. Humans are omnivores for a reason, unlike most primates, or most Carnivora. It also is important for development of testosterone in men, which is important for puberty

>MAGES. is planning to release a “sequel” title in 2024, and it might be Steins;Gate’shttps://www.kirikiribasara.com/2023/12/30/mages-sequel-title-possibly-steinsgate-planned-2024/People say they're milking Steins;Gate (not wrong exactly) but if this is what Chaos;Child was to Chaos;Head then I'm all for it.
