    Played Utawarerumono some time ago. I did like it but I found the SRPG elemenet "a bit" too difficult. I think I had to play every damn stage over twenty times before I beat it lol.

    And the story is told a lot better (except those random ero scenes - luckily there aren't that many) in VN than it was done in anime. The anime was pure rubbish and had no depth at all

It also does have some warm-and-fuzzy moments. It's quite good.
    I bet he only played it for the naughty bits

    Do you still like visual novels with RPG elements in them? Because if you do, I think you should really try out:

    Me personally thougth the anime was quite good but there was some plotholes though
    but thats pretty typical when it comes to anime.
    At least most of the animes ive seen have some sort of plotholes, some more than others.

    Totally depends on how the RPG stuff is done there. I liked Utawarerumono RPG elements even though the battles were so insanely difficult. At least it was challenging lol. It is better to be too difficult than way too easy.

    The anime just made so many things in so damn stupid way.
    SPOILERS FOR UTAWARERUMONO ANIME&VN
    For example, Hakuoro. In game, he is kind of mysterious since he was so war intelligent. In anime, he is more like braindead idiot who acts on a whim.
    Example: In game he plots the night ambush attack to the fort. Kill guards silently and open the gate so others can rush in.
    And what does he do in anime? They charge OUTSIDE the fort with screaming RAAHH or something. Just what the hell? What is the point of whole plot if you going to let the enemy know "hey we are comming" when you are in totally disadvantageous situation (outside). Yeah.. Villagers without no real equipment can take a fort that way..

    Hahaha, I gave him hell about that. XP Ironically though, he didn't intend to play it at all. The only reason he opened it is because -I- wanted to play lol. ;p Ironically, it wasn't the H-scenes he discussed, he wouldn't stop talking about how "adorable" Ell and Putina were xD For days.

    Also, Aselia is pretty good thus far. It's nice that it doesn't have any shoehorned-in H scenes [I always thought the art was pretty weird in 'em anyway] However, the SRPG segments take some getting used to. Stuff is all unclear at points and it took me some time to finish the first mission because of it. However, that may have also been a personal issue stemming from the fact that I play very few SRPGs, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

    Yumina looks great, though! Personally, I'm STILL waiting on Saya no Uta, and I'm not ready to plop down any more money 'til I get the game I've been waiting like half a year for, lol... :P

    You can use jlist. They have a paypal option, but it's only for non-adult products which is great since Aselia is all-ages:

    On a different topic, the latest trailer for Robotics; Notes, the spiritual successor to Chaos; Head Noah and Steins; Gate, shows off the game's cel-shaded models much like in the remake for Ever17.

    I laughed, cried, worried, went into depression, cried tears of joy, ironic melancholies, had a ton of mind screws, saw a struggling mother, saw the strength of true love, saw German and Japanese merger, holograms turn robots, saw death scenes, self-impregnation, and will probably won't be going to any water parks for a while. Last fact : Blick Winkel

    Yes it was the all to well known visual novel Ever17 played from my cousin's computer.

    Hope will never die because in our times of despair, hope is the warmth that we all have that we can share. No matter how much life seems to hurt, stand up and never give up. Fight it and come back VICTORIOUS!!!

    Whenever our souls feel in pain. We intertwine and make a miracle. The miracle that is our love.
