Check out the public yuri mod paste and consider adding more mods and fan translations here: https://rentry.org/n4ugnvhf
Edit password: yurimod

Last thread's fan translation additions: Zettai Zetsumei Toshi 3 (Disaster Report 3) for the PSP, Haru No Oto (translated by redsh), P3R mod is officially out
Last thread's mod additions: Mass Effect Legendary Edition mod (same-sex Tali romance for LE3), Baldur's Gate 2 mods (more lesbian companions, new content expansion)

The yuri game recommendation list is completed. Two 200k character pastes, 100 entries, 136 games, 30 Tags, reviews, store links, spin-off media, a tag Glossary, resource links and more. The goal of having a balanced list with many different genres for both gaming newcomers and yuri newcomers has been fulfilled. No transgender, no GB and no forced het. If you are completely new, the Essentials tag will be what you want to look at for sure.
This should be it for a long while.

SKyrim has a romance DLC now.

>>4489736
This is some creation club thing right? Basically officially approved mods. Not quite a real Bethesda DLC, but that can only be for the best. Elder Scrolls 6 should come out soonish, so it's not like they are going to do anything for Skyrim.

Degrees of Lewdity just got a major update a little bit ago, adding major Avery content and changing the systems a little bit. The Avery content allows you to move in with her at her mansion if you get her to love you enough (I think you also need to go to her Eyes Wide Shut masked party with the cult). This is the only safe way to live outside the orphanage, because she actually gets Bailey's approval, so you no longer need to pay your debt. This unlocks a longer questline involving Landry and the criminal underground. You also are required to cook for her and keep her approval up or she will throw you out. Due to that you need to be at her mansion at 19:00 every weekday at dinner and can't just disappear for weeks like you do at the orphanage. So there are downsides too.
There have also been hundreds of other additions, from special clothes, to new questlines, more backstory for certain NPCs and more options in a lot of situations. There's also just a bunch of secret shit the patch notes don't even tell you.

There has also been a huge update for DoLPlus which adds a bunch of stuff, but mostly just makes the mod work with the new vanilla changes. It also enabled the option to select NNPC sprites from various artists. Goose mod has a few default sprites for certain characters, but now there are way more (for any version). You can change sprites anytime in the options.

>>4489738
>Elder Scrolls 6 should come out soonish
Anon, I...

>>4489753
Did it give you more control during sex scenes? Last I played it didn't let you rim a girl, or let you make a girl rim you. If it happened it was RNG

>>4489767
Those things depend on several factors, like whether it's a consensual encounter and how high your promiscuity is. Also how undressed you are. With your love interests you can usually ask them what to do or not to do. Like telling them not to penetrate with a strap-on or dildo or moving their hands to your neck so they can choke you.
During rape scenes you can't choose much. You can only keep them away from certain actions by blocking them or fight back violently.

>>4489738
>Elder Scrolls 6 should come out soonish

>>4489765
>>4489788
I don't know why you goobers act so smug. They literally said it would come out between 2026 and 2027. I get that it has been an incredibly long time betwen Skyrim and this, but that's because they only started active development in 2023. The 12 years before that don't matter because they never did anything during those. They managed to crank out 5 games in like 5 years so I'm pretty sure it's not gonna take more than a year or two at this point.

>>4489790
Not like it matters. The game (and its base romance options) will likely be dogshit regardless of how long it takes them to release it.

>>4489792
Most likely, but they could also not suck. And if nothing else, it gives modders a new engine and and a new sandbox to play with. Elder Scrolls Online had a few gay couples among NPCs, so I'm hoping the trend continues. I hesitate to call Skyrim's marriage system anything but a formality, so it's not exactly hard to improve.

>>4489714
>No transgender, no GB and no forced het
Therefore /u/ will ignore your list.

Looks like The Elder Scrolls Online will be adding female romance options in the future.

>>4489815
Didn't they already have player marriage? I thought they didn't want to do NPC romance. Guess they would run of out content eventually if they didnt add new features. And ultimately people are just gonna ignore their spouses like they did in Skyrim haha

>>4489819
>I thought they didn't want to do NPC romance.
Their lead dev didn't but he resigned earlier this year and the new leadership has already made one very popular knight guy NPC romancable and hinted the other very popular NPC, a dark elf female assassin, will be too.

>>4489797
Glad we're starting out strong with your delusions

>>4489714
>P3R mod is officially out
Is anyone working on animated cutscenes for P3R or P5R? That seems like the biggest hurdle after figuring out animation jank.

>>4489792
Nah it will eb fine people will try to dogpile on it like every single time a new game comes out but it will be fine like always, it will still be really cool to see a new region and whatever small details they add to the world.
They hired allot of more modders that worked on skyrim so it will be really fun to see what they cook up.
I do hope they stick to their engine since it is really easy to mod and add your own stuff.

Offtopic but is the new Expanse game by owlcat in hopes of having yuri ? i never read the books or a show

>>4489874
P3R actually does have the animation team that redided the P3P cutscene working on it. Until then you can actually use the Kotone Cutscene Project mod from P3P on P3R.
As for P5R.. no. I don't think the fem Joker mod has anything like that going on and the Kasumi mod is even more niche for now. I think it's unrealistic to expect that.

>>4489843
Ignore the troll and report him.

>>4489712 (OP)
>Seabed
>defining work that has inspired many popular yuri writers across the years.
Why can't I find nothing quite like it then

>>4489970
I just stated how it is. Authors like Hitoma Iruma directly mentioned Seabed as their gateway into writing yuri.

>>4489971
Doesn't Adashima predate it?

>>4489998
Yes, the first published volume of AdaShima released in 2013, while Seabed was released in 2015. However, Iruma did make that statement, so that's that. What exactly he meant by that is up to interpretation I guess. AdaShima 1-3 were definitely very experimental for him and quite different from what he usually wrote. As time went on he got more and more focused on doing yuri works though, so perhaps Seabed was just pushing him more towards that direction.

>>4490011
I see, something like a stronger push for him to really go for it in a major way.

>>4489753
I always imagined Avery in a business suit so that whole noble lady look's going to take some getting used to

>>4490217
There are several sprites to choose from, so try your luck.

Sometimes I wonder if Steam recommendeds are broken. "Oh, 90% of what you play is yuri VNs? Obviously you don't care about that so let's recommend you only stuff from that other 10%"

>>4490473
Those yuri VNs have other tags too that it recommends, it prioritizes newer releases and stuff on sale too (?). And I guess if you already have most of the yuri VNs that could be a thing too

>>4489899
>As for P5R.. no. I don't think the fem Joker mod has anything like that going on and the Kasumi mod is even more niche for now. I think it's unrealistic to expect that.
Understandable, the P5R FeMC mod scene is extremely disjointed. Even if someone wanted to do it there are at least two different fem Joker designs plus Kasumi they would have to choose between.

>>4490566
Regardless of how many thete are, animators this dedicated are not easy to come by. P3P's team was on it for years and are willing to keep going for P3R cause they care about P3.

I've always wondered, is a whiff of yuri (subtext between a couple character, a character being canonically gay even when it doesn't have any weight on the game as a whole) enough to make you buy a $70 game?

>>4490690
Yes and No
If it's a female protag that has a very close associate she spends a great amount of interaction with and there's at least some subtext, and the game is at least decent, I will give it a chance

>>4490690
Just depends on the game. Plenty of people here play non-yuri games after all. We just dont talk about them. Or at least shouldnt.

>>4490690
No, games are entertainment at the end of the day and they have to be atleast somewhat fun to spend that kind of money on imo. But I often give games I might like a chance, not like you can 100% know whether you'll like something or not before giving it a shot.

>>4490690
This is a stupid question with absolutely no point.

>>4490690
Only hard requirements are female protagonist + no forced het for said protagonist. I've been applying these for more than 10 years yet my backlog is still growing, so I don't expect I'll ever drop them. Though actually having yuri in some form will put a game significantly higher on my to-do list.

But considering the size of my backlog nothing can make me buy a $70 game at full price.

>>4490790
It's not for me. A game that has zero direct on screen yuri, but takes place in a yuritopia would be enough for me to take an interest in something. Just the knowledge that yuri is real and normal in that world will satisfy me.

>>4490867
Where does the "only a whiff of yuri" and "$70 game" patronizing come in there? It's very clear that this is not what this question was about.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4069400/Chill_Planet/
Yuri? This reminds me of another PS exclusive yuri game with similar setting, girls travel together in the end of the world, but that game has explicit yuri, not sure about this one.

>>4490901
This game was brought up before. There is no indication it has yuri. The dev apparently never brought up yuri or romance once on their blog about the game.

>>4490901
Seems like it's their first game so can't judge by track record, looks interesting enough to keep up with till release I suppose. Full female cast atleast

I beat P5R with the Rose & Violet Kasumi protag rewrite mod.

While the changes throughout the game were already very good (I appreciate the Shido stuff especially), it's clear that the Royal exclusive content is where Kasumi and Sumire get the most attention. While the writing is a little awkward about it, I honestly marvel at the changes again. Kasumi would have died on that day just like in vanilla if Maruki hadn't used his power to give Sumire a vision of the outcome and make her stop running onto the street. Because Maruki saved Kasumi's life and the sisters had an argument, kasumi went down a different street and that's when she runs into Shido and kickstarts the plot of the main game. This is brilliant, not only because it manages to give a good reason for why Kasumi is around, but it also ties her intrinsically to Maruki, more than Joker ever was, who just felt like an outsider to the whole situation.
Sumire not becoming Kasumi, but getting her personality from Maruki also makes Maruki seem less extreme and more reasonable, which is kinda funny. I honestly agreed with him more than anything so I picked the Maruki ending first. In that one everyone was happy... Ann could be with Shiho and Kasumi could stay with her new family at Leblanc. Sumire wins the international competitions and fulfills the sisters dreams.
Alas, I reloaded my save and got the proper true ending. Seeing Sumire's inferiority complex to Kasumi in full effect is so much better when she is alive. The only thing that has weirdly little impact on the sisters situation is their parents death. Like it never even comes up as a reason to stay in Maruki's reality, even though he literally revived their parents...

In the end after Kasumi smacks some sense into Maruki everything returns to normal with her going to jail and being bailed out. A little sad that the final scene of game is an anime cutscene so you have to ignore Joker in it, but what can ya do.

>>4490929
I didn't remember that Royal edited a White Day date as a follow up to the Valentines date, so that was a pleasant surprise. Kasumi's rizz levels are absolutely crushing. No wonder she got to bang Sae's sister 3 times during the game. Good thing the sisters didn't meet when they both gave her chocolate!

The new Lavenza date they added was really cute and the cops have no power in that attic, so nobody can do anything about it. Still need to get her implied crush scen in NG+ after beating the optional boss fight, but this is close enough to lolicon content as is.

I just barely managed to finish Ohya's Confidant two days before the end of the game. That was pretty funny. Also all the giri chocolate could get Kasumi through another year.

Also I adore that redrawn pic with Kasumi and her pet cat. It's the best.

>>4490929
As for the final Sumire stuff, it's so gay that it would be hard to deny incest allegations in court. I really love the second half of her Confidant that starts after she {spoiler]regains her original personality in the plot and how Kasumi build her confidence back up and they truly start to love each other without pretenses, not needing a fake personality to overcome the inferiority complex anymore.[/spoiler]

>>4490933
ah... the yuri between bracket-chan and curly brace-senpai...

>>4489713
>London: Echoes of the Past releases on November 5th (detective game with yuri)
It's out now. Aside from a rought translation (shocking for Chinese VNs I am sure), it seems to be pretty short. But expecting more at that price point would be weird.

>>4490931
Persona has /ll/? based

>>4490929
We realy need a animation autist

>>4490933
Do you still get beat up by the love interests if you romanced more than one?

>>4491034
Yes. Extremely so. Not that I tried. I will go full harem on NG+ because I will need to get all the adult romances for testing though.

>>4490988
Honestly it's already lucky how many in-engine cutscenes there that made it easy to just replace the model.

I've been replaying Kindred Spirits on the Roof lately and I've been surprised by how many early hints of Yuna/Hina there are, actually. I remember thinking it was sort of sudden and that I preferred Ano/Yuna (I think I still do really) but I'm way more into the ship than I was back then.

>>4491192
Is it really a ship if it's confirmed?

Also man I still have way too much of the post game to read and the audio DLC

>>4491193
ship is short of relationship, even if it's canon it's still a ship, imo

I regret buying Blood Lily Ghost stories....the game was like a demo for a better game
It's possibly one of the dumbest yuri stories I've read too....

>>4490983
Well, to a degree. The sort of implied crush from Lavenza is hidden behind new game+ and beating the optional boss there. This date that happens even on the first playthrough is also the result of going on every single hangout with the twins beforehand, so it's a lot of work.
Still I guess that technically means there is some implied lolihag ship.

>>4491192
It was always there, but Yuna genuinely acted more like Hina's platonic mom and Hina is about as expressive as a stool, so there was just no chemistry. Ano was the correct option.

>>4491197
Should've just checked Tvtropes and discovered the entire series is one of "everybody sucks or gets horribly murdered" types of RPG Maker horror schlock. Having a few yuri-friendly alternative timeline entries doesn't matter when the main games have one girl become a monster and the other murdered by a psycho boyfriend.

>>4491209
>tvtropes
Actual clown.

>>4491209
It's neither.
I'll spoil it basically it's about a lesbian who was a part of an occult club and got upset that a girl she liked led her on only to be in a het relationship. she kills herself and tries to take revenge as a ghost only to get thwarted by anti-evil charms. she doesn't want to admit that she's evil but she is.

she possesses your character and she tries to conduct her revenge at the club's modern members only for them to be like "yeah we understand where you're coming from and my mom was actually the girl you were jealous of and she named me after you so you were never forgotten. Then they end up deciding to share the body equally and live happily ever after.
The entire game takes place in two rooms, lasts for maybe an hour if that. The only time that the game even utilizes the engine that it's built in is to show you cutscenes of things that don't happen in that game, or when you move your character about 5 ft to talk to your two friends in the room in between stories and pick up books from the shelf.
Apparently it's part of some bigger universe of games.

>>4491216
You didn't understood. It's part of Psychical Exorcism Series. I'm just going to paste spoilers.
>Ghost stories: The bad ending has Sally and Lily exorcise Nead with Prince's warding sachet, but this causes Miss Choker to remove Azura's spirit, hospitalizing her. The stinger indicates that this ending will lead to the events of Case 03: True Cannibal Boy.
>Bloody Lily Loop, the pervious game of the sub-series: Sally canonically breaks the time loop and chooses to go back to her college years to properly befriend Lily, since these events will lead to Case 03: True Cannibal Boy. Where Sally will become an undead and Sally's boyfriend turned into a yandere in the pervious Case game will kill Lily.

>>4491219
I mean yeah when I bought it I didn't realize ot was part of a series but when I did realize that at the end of the game, I still felt very disappointed. Not only was the story really short and not really that good either, the actual gameplay was literally just walking around a corner, talking to people and then picking up a book. It could have been made in renpy or even released as like a separate PDF available for purchase.
It seems like the other ones in the series at least have some stuff to make them stand out whether it be combat or at least occasionally interacting with the environment....

>>4491223
It literally says it's part of a series on the store page. This is on you anon.

>>4491250
Sure but it doesn't take away from how short the experience was altogether and how little the game used RPG maker itself. I don't get why the game wasn't a VN.

>>4491257
Because it's a bad series by a mediocre dev.

>>4491210
>no argument

>>4491261
Only a clown expects an argument when someone just made fun of him for using tvtropes.

>>4491264
>Only a clown expects an argument from a retard
Got me there.

>4491265
Pathetic. Last (You).

>>4491266
Yeah yeah, run away you little retard.

>>4491261
TVTropes is far worse than Wikipedia at relaying actual information. If it tells you snow is white, check twice.

Now kiss!

>>4491261
Tvtropes is easily one of the most hilariously inexact sources of information out there, to the point where some articles legit read like fanfiction.
On top of that they're very censorship happy; the articles removed most of the criticism towards the work they're talking about and there are events like deleting Looking up to Magical Girls because a mod doesn't like the manga.

>>4491275
Maybe if we're talking 10 years ago, but it has come a long way.

>>4491374
I mean, this is Your mileage may vary section, this is the place where people can write their subjective takes or rant about ships they dislike without getting immediately nuked. That's where people still seething about Re:Creators ending are located. If you're getting opinions from there you should be getting clowned on, but if you want to get some spoilers about semi-obscure titles, the main pages are one of the better sources out here.

>>4491374
>deleting garbage MahoAko
Now I'm conflicted. Why are the retards on tvtropes suddenly doing something good?

>>4491416
You are living in a fantasy world. TvTropes is just as garbage as it ever was and should not be used as a serious resource. Also you going on about Re:Creators tells me all I need to know about you crossie.

>>4491489
Can you explain, what's your beef with MahoAko? I'm curious.

>>4491493
Because it humiliated two harem/ecchi/het series that everyone considered superior (at least one of them) with MahoAko being objectively a better series in every aspect than those two series that fail miserably (the fact that one of them has its second season airing this season and nobody cares, should tell you something)

>>4491275
>>4491374
>>4491416
Tvtropes is basically the freest and dumbest version of Wikipedia, but it's clearly Western and it shows in the number of retarded people in the articles who can't accept that underage fictional characters can be hot or do something they don't like (like good crybabies or YouTubers), such as treating romance in Happy Sugar Life as a disturbing fact or pretending there's nothing romantic in UzaMaid or directly ignoring any kind of yuri, subtext or mere shipping in the Neptunia games (but glorifying terrible self-insertion fics).

Everyone needs to consider that not everyone is critical of what they read on other parts of the internet; many people swallow everything whole and never think for themselves.

>>4491198
Ano doesn't do 3D!

>>4491508
>people in the articles who can't accept that underage fictional characters can be hot
Of course it's a lolitard seething. Opinion discarded.

>>4491493
It's coomerbait for men. The protag being a girl is out of cowardice not for the love of yuri. The author wanted to do BDSM hetshit, but picked a girl for less backlash. Everything about it is pure shit and excuses for yuri unrelated fetishes. It's not made for you to appreciate yuri, it's made for you to get horny about girls getting put into BDSM situations. Fanservice and waifufaggism attracting trash that is even worse in the anime.

>>4491507
You live in complete delusion, don't you retard?

>>4491518
Every lesbian otaku secretly wants to fuck her female friends.

>>4491608
First and foremost, they are fictional characters, not real people, and second, the stupid and idiotic complaint of being horrified by "sexualizing minors" applies to characters under 18 or 20 years old, not just lolis.

>>4491617
It's not. Stop coping.

>>4491619
The guy you are replying to on the other hand is actually baiting. Don't take it so seriously.

>>4491623
>>4491619
>>4491617
Its not that, its the fact that the anon is right its a hetshit series that only uses female protag for less of an outrage.
Its bearly yuri with the stuff that it does do.
Its quite litterly porn series that shit ass derectors are to cowardly to just adapt it into full on hentai.
I wont forgive shitty porn het series but made into anime shows so this series dosnt get excuse either.

That's one way to do it, I guess.

>>4491609
>>4491626
>this manga about girls loving girls is actually het because in my schizo mind the protagonist is male!!!
How do you people enjoy anything?

>>4491609
>The author wanted to do hetshit
I can't wrap my head around this notion.
The author really went the extra mile with avoiding het implications, most other similar works would've at least put in background males, this one avoids even that, and none of the characters has ever mentioned men, boyfriends or being bi, heck there isn't even any especially masculine girl in the cast compared to a ton of yuri works, I don't know where you get the idea that they wanted it to be het, if anything it's on the opposite end of the spectrum.
As for it being male-gazey then sure, I agree, it comes with the ecchi territory and it's all around bad; but I appreciate that the relationships between the characters feel genuine if simplistic, I usually skip series like Valkyrie Drive because I just find them forced and shallow, but in MahoAko raunchiness isn't so prevalent and the characters are likeable enough to offset it.
The anime adaptation was unfortunately plagued with bad art and animation, I feel like all those poorly paced scenes gave it a worse reputation than it deserves in here, but it also treated the yuri with respect so I'm still glad it exists.

>>4491638
Like I said, the protagonist would have been male and it is clear that this was a last minute direction change, because turning the protagonist into a sluttily dressed girl and doing BDSM shit to the other girls through her is better for fanservice and will get less backlash.
>in MahoAko raunchiness isn't so prevalent
Are you blind and deaf or something? The manga is bad enough, but the shitty anime quadrupled this retardation. Every character is a slut who gets off on BDSM shit with zero redeeming qualities or actual romance in this story and the camera is just on constant porn cam mode.
>it treated the yuri with respect
There is no such thing. it's all coomerbait with zero sincerity or real yuri appeal. They could literally just do softcore porn scenes of the girls getting tied up or covered in wax or beaten by invisible monsters and would get the exact same result. That's how little this shit cares about yuri.

Every goddamn time some retard here has to bring up this garbage show. Just kill yourselves and free us of this stupid shit. This doesn't belong in the video-game thread. Go to your containment thread your freaks.

>Wannabe mod getting assblasted over ecchi yuri
Can't make this shit up.

It's hilarious to do this in a thread that defends P3P and mods of Persona 5
Y'know. Stories with actual male protagonists where the female is a replacement for the male. Specially the Persona 5 mods that are entirely fan projects and the actual game is intended to be het
And of course, Persona isn't free of sexualizing fictional minors. Same applies to a lot of stuff discussed in the games thread
MahoAko is still. yuri, cope and seethe. You have no solid evidence that male MC was ever considered other than "I don't like it, so I must make up this shit". Anyone can claim your favourite yuri was intended to have a male MC and the female MC was a last minute change and thus it's bad and het by that logic. No one can disprove it after all
It's all subjective analysis and "I'm right because I say so"

Probably not, although feeling superior to other people based on biased judgments and pure stupidity may give them sexual pleasure; I can't think of any other excuse for writing such a quantity of stupidities and pretending to be right.

>>4491658
Typical Western hypocrisy: you can have sex (het) with a gorilla in a game (supposedly that's art), but having a picture of panties or a cute girl is something that shouldn't exist (women apparently can't look like women).

>>4491640
>it's all coomerbait with zero sincerity or real yuri appeal.
Wow you are absolutely just making this shit up

You might as well talk shit about any of the farming sims that get posted here while you're at it

>>4491678
Didn't say it was wrong. Just that "it was made with male MC and female MC was a later change/addition" applies far more to Persona than it does MahoAko. Just showing how anon's logic of "it's het if I can claim it was intended to have Male MC" is retarded and would mean condemning lots of games posted here.

These museum guards sure are lazy, one of the prehistoric exhibits ran away again

>>4491658
So you're saying we should have a live action adaptation of Mahoako?

>>4491686
Happens when the password for the museum door is "yuri". Once they smell freedom they think they are allowed to roam freely.

>>4491688
Are you drunk or just usually this stupid?

You know, that explains a lot about the state of the /u/ game thread.

>>4491637
>>4491669
I can enjoy many things but alson dislike many things.
Im pretty easy to pleas.
but lets be real have any seen any of the anime normies watching it for the plot ?
Most people watch it for the corruption and ecchi aspect not the Yuri aspect that borderline at best with the kind of stuff they do
You aint hearing anyone talking about yuri apsect of it unless its /u/ no instead its most about all the other stuff

>>4491718
but thats offtopic im stopping here im sorry mods

>>4491718
Who cares? Still yuri. If someone makes a yuri fighting game and people play it for the gameplay, it doesn't stop being yuri. Or a yuri show where people only discuss fights. Or a yuri mecha where people only watch for the robots
Are the only valid yuris pure romance shows that people can't watch for any other reason? Should the MCs of those be in burkas or dressed like the Arknights Doctor to make sure no one is watching because they like their designs?
Definition of yuri: girls doing romantic and/or sexual stuff with other girls. That's it. MahoAko counts
What people discuss about it is irrelevant

>>4491721
by that defiction any shitty het shit with girls kissing makes it yuri and i dont accept that.
I didnt say anything about covering up but just about how it is handled its presentation to attract specific audiance not of a yuri focus.

>>4491722
Does MahoAko have any het? No. So yuri. Your bullshit about presentation and audience is irrelevant
Let me correct my definition to exclude het: Girls doing romantic and/or sexual things only with other girls. MahoAko still fits
WfM was made to attract people to the wider Gundam franchise. To sell plastic models of the robots. Does that mean the show that ends with the two leads married is not yuri?. Fuck off. "audience and presentation" are irrelevant to yuri definition. It's about wether the girls do sex and/or romance exclusively to other girls. You know what I meant with my definition anyways and are only bringing up the het card to be disingenous.
This wouldn't be a problem if people accepted they don't need to like every yuri. You can accept something is yuri and still dislike it

If Larian did a 40k CRPG we would have a romanceable Sister. Owlcat is a disappointment.

>>4491657
You just completely ignored the point in favor of the one thing you thought was somehow debatable. Why are you bringing up minors when that was a different anon's actual bait that was posted once?

There is nothing to defend. Those games have yuri and aren't shitty softcore porn without a point beyond titillating male viewers. If you play P3P as Kotone you would understand that this route was made with female players in mind.
Your constant raving against the P5R mod doesn't go unnoticed, you try to get a dig at it whenever you get a chance, so it clealry must uipset you, even if you pretend you don't mind it. Seems to me this is all just you trying to shitpost because you are annoyed that a shitty series like MahoAko that you jerk off to isn't treated with the respect you want and that people can actually have fun with yuri mods which are made for a yuri audience.

>>4491659
I read 15 chapters of this garbage manga. It's just introducing a new BDSM fetish every chapter with zero worthwhile development and 100% fanservice. It has no actual yuri value and what little there is is also just gags. It couldn't be more seethrough how little this shit cares about yuri.

>>4491707
Except everyone here told the tvtropes shill that it's a garnage site and he is a clown.

>yuri game gets brought up

Gee, I wonder why people constantly complain about these threads being bad. Ironically it's usually the people who don't post about yuri games who will say it too.

>>4491756
>nobody says dumb shit

>husband
she doesn't actually call her that in the game, right?
i remember the dialogue line about turning her into a man, but i thought that was a single instance

>>4490933
did they keep the sumire/PC showtime attack for this mod?

>>4491764
She uses "goushoujin-sama" which is more like "master", but that was historically used for a wife addressing her husband in ancient Japan. This says more about how messed up old Japan was.
The more neutral translation tends to use "darling". That being said, Tamamo is obssessed with being a wife, so it wouldnt be unusual for her to use huband regardless of who her partner is. She does completely acknowledger Hakunon as a girl though.
> the dialogue line about turning her into a man
You got that wrong. Tamamo said SHE could turn into a man, because she is a shapeshifter. That would be the opposite. And she just said that in case Hakunon prefers guys she could acoomodate her.

>>4491768
They did. Too bad you unlock that so late into the game that it is rare to ever come up.

>>4491759
Guess I have to repost this art. I really like this artist's work. Hopefully Extra Record will be as gay as the fanart.

>>4491815
It was better when dash just drew endless mono.

>>4491816
I dont know what mono is, but their yuri art is all I care about.

>>4489736
Fancy

>>4491764
>>4491769
I don't know what Tamamo says in the original Japanese, but the translation doesn't mention anything about turning anyone into a man.

For reference this is the actual dialogue exchange where the talks of "turn Hakunon into a man" stems from: https://youtu.be/hQ2VVg-HQlM

>>4491930
This exchange never once implied anything about turning Hakunon into a man to begin with. No, Tamamo is implying she will change herself to appeal more to a female Master's preferences and then does the equivalent of the "Just close your eyes and think of England" meme. Most people interpreted that as her growing a dick for intimate moments or outright turning into a man (both things that are not at all unheard of in the Fate franchise).
Obviously she does not explicitely say that, so you are free to interpret anything else into that dialogue. This is an early interaction too, so this is before Tamamo is really serious about Hakunon. She is still in her "gotta appeal to my Master as much as possible" mode. This is Tamamo in the "absolutely don't want to be hated" stage. Seduction is easier with male Masters as she says, but she is still confident she can win over a female Master.

>>4491930
>>4491932
i'm too lazy to look it up, but there was discussion here some time ago about a line that was specifically about turning into a man
either way this is all really shit writing

>>4491935
I mean, the writing isn't bad once you understand what kind of character Tamamo is. This is just playful banter anyway.

>>4491937
silly me for liking my yuri free of futanari/het sex implications
not like i'm not gonna eat it up anyway, such is the fate of content starved niches

>>4491938
Like I said, she wasn't being serious. It was just typical Tamamo banter. She can throw out 20 innuendos a minute, but can't even muster the courage to do anything.
>content starved
I highly doubt that at this point. Fate/Extra is just a classic that's worth playing. Maybe the remake will be as well.

The commercial failure of Crymachina and Samurai Maiden pretty much killed any chance of yuri games that aren't VNs or RPG Maker projects.
Which is pretty unsurprising given how, as an oneesan put it several threads ago
>no one buys games full priced.

To be fair there are games like the Horizon series or The Last of Us series, but those take several years to come out and have a mass appeal focus rather than just a lesbian focus.

He is trying with the shitty bait again. Do me a favor anonettes and don't reply to it this time. If he start samefagging, ignore it too.

>>4491939
The remake better have the "but I refluff" option too.

I am going on a nomnomnami marathon so I can prepare myself for Syrup 2 RPG (because it has a lot of cameos apparently).
The first one I played is Princess Poffin and the Spider Invasion, but there isn't much to talk about. It's a 20 minute pixel art walking game with some funny dialogue. If I had to say anything memorable about it, it's Poffin the moth princess befriending the spider princess who was trying to invade their kingdom to get some moonlight. It's cute, but not full on yuri.

So instead I will start with Contract Demon. It's the exact opposite of Poffin, in that it is very explicitely gay and that's the whole focus. Eleni the angel and Kamilla the demon start a contract of friendship and things just get weirder from there. I think it's very charming and while the characters don't mind being lewd, it's really more about romance. It's just around an hour long, so it is pretty light cuisine. Kamilla and Eleni are really setting up some of the world though. Witches and demons are a super common theme in nomnomnami games.

>>4491962
That's a CCC moment, but I'll take it.

>>4491964
Honestly, I should probably have started with Syrup 1, considering what I am doing this for and it being one of nomnomnami's first games, but the order isn't that important yet.

So Syrup and the Ultimate Sweet. Most people probably know it's just a yuri subtext game, but it's actually fairly direct with its subtext. Butterscotch the witch has a very obvious crush on Syrup and Syrup herself repeatedly acknowledges that Gumdrop was created to be her "type". It's another short game with many endings, nami's signature style. Syrup is an unusually anti-social protag for this writer, but her opening up to others is rather the point.
It continues (or starts?) the trend of supportive male side-characters that don't threaten the yuri with Pastille (like Olog in Contract Demon who is Kamilla's asexual brother). He is gay.

Honestly Gumdrop is sort of the main heroine everything revolves around, but I weirdly don't feel that way about her. Butterscotch stands out much more to me. Every ending tends to acknowledge how the witch feels about the outcome too which is weird.
Gotta love that there is just an ending where Syrup straight up adopts Toffee the catperson familar without Butterscotch's consent. It's super random.

There is a long running comic series made by nami that revolves around this game's cast which also eventually involved her othe game's characters. I guess that was the basis for Syrup 2.

>>4491960
>The commercial failure of Crymachina
Didn't that sell over 100k? That's huge for an indie game.
Of course it's not AAA game numbers, but AAA studios would never make a yuri-only game to begin with, so indies is where our chances are, they just need to stop making glorified minigames and commit to serious projects already.

Remember what I said about replying to the samefagging attempts. Hold fast nee-sans.

>>4492000
Finally it's time for one of the well known nomnomnami games, especially in yuri circles. her tears were my light is pretty special to me. It was my first nomnomnami game and it showed me a lot of stylistic choices I had never seen in VNs before.

Unlike most nami games this one doesnt have different endings per se. That's because its major mechanic is time travel. The game revolves around Time and Space, who are obviously both girls and in love with each other. Seems pretty straightforward, but it is actually fairly gayforward and you can even speed forward and back between stages of their relationship. Time can reach the end of the universe and its beginning at will with her powers. This matters when something bad starts happening to Space and she tries to find out what is wrong by jumping through time and changing her choices. Eventually an antagonist is revealed, Nil. But who is Nil? Well that's the mystery.
The way the story is told is very unique and the atmosphere is just so immersive. The space backgrounds and the chill music really make it. If nothing else seeing Time and Space make out is a real reality warping experience.

Time and Space also appear in nami's webcomics sometimes, though as different versions of the characters that can interact with the cast instead of primordial forces the size of all space.

>>4492000
I didn't even consider that this was subtext. It was just that on the nose

>>4492033
It's probably a pedestrian take, but this is my 2nd of hers (played syrup first) but this is my favorite

>>4492037
I suppose I should be clear by what I mean with subtext. It's not really so much subtext that Syrup and Butterscotch are into women, but the game avoids outright stating it or showing any of the relationships become explicitely romantic.
Is it obvious that in the Gumdrop ending where they travel the world together while holding hands to have time to "get to know each other" those two are dating? Sure. Is it obvious that Syrup wouldnt just randomly start hanging out at Butterscotch's place and teach her all her secrets if she wasn't banging her on the side? Sure. But the game does allow plausible deniability, which is not true for 99% of all following nomnomnami titles.
Also from what little I remember from the Syrup 2 demo, it does not follow any of the first game's endings, instead just generally acknowledging its plot points.

>>4492039
Did you play the rest of her catalogue too? If we are just talking about Syrup and her tears, then I wholeheartedly agree. her tears is a steep improvement.
Even if we considered all of nami's works, her tears is still a clear standout too. She is at her best when her writing goes slightly philosophical imo. I still wouldnt call this my favorite though, that one is still to come in my marathon.

>>4492043
>just generally acknowledging its plot points.
Considering it's multi ending that tracks
>Did you play the rest of her catalogue too?
Just those 2 and contract demon. I think you recommended bad end theater so I need to do that still

>>4492033
>Time and Space also appear in nami's webcomics sometimes
yes, and space is confirmed transgender in there

>>4492046
>I think you recommended bad end theater so I need to do that still
I very much do recommend that, indeed.
I hope as my marathon goes on I may be able to interest more people in the whole wacky namiverse (well not the whole whole, there are some off-topic games on that list).

>>4492047
Different continuity, different lore as it were.

>>4492049
>Different continuity, different lore as it were
I saw something similar with a yuri artist I like, where one of her prints was about two women growing up getting married, and growing old together; only to find out when asked on Tumblr about it if one of them was trans she said yes and these people do such a terrible job conveying that (they look like women and not men in costumes nor is it said in the description on her store) it's ignorable
