I dunno I feel like LE is doing nothing for me I don't really know why? Maybe I just don't like SHAFT. Blockhouse fucked around with this message at 16:32 on Feb 22, 2018 |

100 degrees Calcium posted:That is good to know! Since I'm already a route-and-a-half deep, I think I'll have to cut my losses and just look that stuff up later. When I get to Hollow Ataraxia, I'm gonna try to ascertain more of this stuff beforehand. I'd even like to play without a walkthrough for a change. Just a heads up that there are at least a couple dead ends in the Heavens Feel route (Mind of Steel and Sparks Liner High) that you'll almost certainly want to see, especially if you're more interested in the dramatic parts. Sparks Liner High in particular is some people's favorite part of the VN. And while UBW good end is a nice little extra scene and easy to get, it's nothing that special. In HF though absolutely make sure you get the true end. If you're going to get the normal end, too, then I'd get it first. Normal first, then True.

It's a Bakamatori show with Fate skin on it so far.

Shaft direction and art style clash too much with Nasu type of narration. It's really disappointing, so far.

LE seems designed to appeal to people who've already played Extra with a big 'What the heck is going on here' sign on it. That and people who want lots of Nero fanservice. As a show in and of itself it's... okay? I guess.

Terrible Opinions posted:If this is even remotely true in the Japanese, the English subtitlers must have been just completely asleep at the wheel. For the most part the snappiness of it still comes through fairly well. Dialogue is like the one thing Nisio can probably consistently hang his hat on (see, also: Katanagatari).

Nate RFB posted:I think LE, at least so far, is pretty nonsensical and not a very well put together show. It's certainly interesting but mostly for reasons beyond its actual artistic merits. Like, woah Shinji isn't a total douchebag and Blackmore is a murderous rear end in a top hat, what's up with that? But the actual script, scene compositions, pacing, art direction (sad for Shaft) isn't anything really special. Blackmore was always a murderous rear end in a top hat. None of the Extra Masters have clean hands.

Space Flower posted:why do you think it's designed for people who've already played Extra by putting them in the same position as everyone else. Maybe my wording about 'designed to appeal' is wrong. But it's more like people who've played Extra would be the ones who are asking 'what's going on here? Why is everything changed from what we knew?' whereas others who would not be familiar with it would just go '...eh' and ignore it.

 I'm using the top right version, and I've just started. I'm still on the prologue with Rin. There isn't a title screen or status screen yet. Is this version fine or should I get the three on the right?

Realta Nua is a remaster of the original visual novel (top 2 on the right), Hollow Ataraxia is a completely separate story and sort of sequel to the original FSN (and is also extremely good)

astr0man posted:Also iirc you don’t get to the main menu/title screen until after you finish the Rin prologue Ok, that makes sense. I'm guessing I won't get any of the status screens until Saber shows up too. It's not the ideal version since it doesn't have all the added bonuses of the beast's lair translation patch but it's got the voices, it's in english, and the h scenes so it's good enough.

Does it have the additional music and CGs from Realta Nua? If not then you probably want to find a version that does (or a patch that adds them).

If you really care about the cut scenes the Beast Lair Vita patch lets you add it back in if you really want.

There's some campy fun to some of the sex scenes (I like the idea of Rin stage directing the first fate one), and some characterization in some of them (I don't know if I buy Shirou leaving his life behind to follow Rin to England if the UBW one doesn't happen. his line about not doing it for the magic, but because he wants to with her is important for establishing their romantic relationship.) Most of the sex scenes are dumb though and the execution is horrific, and the replacements are also dumb. I wish they were just less explicit and more meaningful.

Rin being confirmed bisexual, even if it's through horndog sex scenes, is cool though. Rin is cool.

The Rin sex scene is good because it confirms Shiro and Rin are perfect for each other as they are both awful at it.

Its been literally a decade since I've read any of it, are the fate sex scenes shellfish-metaphor tier of incredibly bad, or are they merely disgustingly mediocre

Cephas posted:Rin being confirmed bisexual, even if it's through horndog sex scenes, is cool though. Rin is cool. I rolled my eyes when Rin said something like, "Wow, I didn't know I swung this way," because it was obvious from her interactions with her classmates way back in the Prologue. Rin posted:In contrast to her nasty mouth, she's a Japanese beauty who looks wonderful in a kimono. Ayako posted:Geez. We really are alike. Ayako posted:There's no way you'd ever be concerned about a guy. Though Rin is a tsundere, so being in denial about that is actually in character. The UBW anime removes basically all suggestion of this, though. I'm not sure if they were deliberately avoiding any hint that Rin is less that completely straight or just cutting the mundane classroom stuff for time.

If Iskander has to mentor every jerk he comes across, he's never going to get around to conquering the world. Wait, maybe that's not such a bad plan...

I ended up redownloading Realta Nua proper and now that I've fixed the resolution so there isn't a glitch on the sides, I gotta say it feels very luxurious compared to the version I was playing before. The music is stellar too.
