It depends if you run the game on your GPU too. If you run it on CPU then you will feel the lag a lot more, but otherwise it's... neglectable. But I seriously don't understand why the remove one of the best features of the game (smooth combos) and replace them with... this.
I never finished SteinsGate either, since during the time I downloaded it the sheer amount of threads and patches and reported bugs scared the crap out of me. And then I learned that it was non-H.
Like they have THAT GIRL, and they make it a non-H. It's like a punch in the guts.

Well, as I mentioned before the MQ series really should be played in a row. For me the entertainment value has decreased because it just didn't feel that epic playing the 3rd game after a long period of pause.
Yeah, I'm reaffirming my previous rating for 赤ã•ã‚“ã¨å¸è¡€é¬¼ã€‚ This is definitely top class Love-Comedy Visual Novel. It knows exactly when to end a plot before it gets stale, to transist between scenes almost seamlessly and without waste, with top notch art (seriously, I wouldn't mind AT ALL reading a Baldr Sky-ish or Dangan Ronpa-ish story with this kind of art - in fact, it would be an honor) and BGMs that I really want to download and put in my phone.
I must say that this is almost epic - ALMOST, because I certainly did not regret reading it, but I do regret that it could not be say, Maji de Watashi Koi Shinassai! level of epicness nad length. But this is certainly one of the most enjoyable Love Comedy VN I have read this year.
Like, I'm almost sad I can't see an Akatsuki no Goei - no wait that's a TERRIBLE example - I mean, a Muv Luv Alternative kind of super twist, where everything turned into hell just to see more of their special Abilities. The battle scenes are actually one of the weak points of this VN because they couldn't balance the Sound Effects properly here to be louder than the BGM (I had to turn it down myself), and the choreograph was generic at best. Still, I get to see some really cool CGs, and I really appreciated the effort put in it. 8.8/10 I'm giving this!

I am impressed with 赤ã•ã‚“ã¨å¸è¡€é¬¼ã€‚ To be honest I actually have zero confidence in this VN due to the fact that it was produced by the sister company of Debonosu something Works, which had some pretty cool and challenging 2D side-scrolling action games (like the Dragon Girl one), but HORRENDOUS storytelling presentation otherwise. The art wasn't particularly appealing either, and I almost always drop them after halfway through simply because I couldn't stand the terrible storytelling.
赤ã•ã‚“ã¨å¸è¡€é¬¼ is different though. Despite sharing the same system sounds and so (scared the shit out of me at first, since I thought I've downloaded yet another dud). The art is FANTASTIC. Each character, with exception to the MC of course (though he makes sufficient amount of appearances in CG) have at least 4 outfits I think, and that's honestly impressive considering its quality. This was also the only Love Comedy VN I've read in year 2013 (though to be honest, I didn't even download much of this genre) that has a male side character who ISN'T a fool design wise. In fact, he's extremely good-looking and could easily be a protagonist himself - imagine Deardrops' protagonist, but with an upgraded and higher quality sprite.
The music is fine too. This is the kind of OST that you could listen for the whole day and not feel tedious about it, simply because it's meant to be soothing and casual, with a lace of quality. It is by no means cheap quality, and for that I am grateful.
Plot thus far is interesting. The art and music helped a lot (don't think I could've stand the same plot if these were downgraded to the generic as fuck level), but they handled the pacing and transition pretty damn well I'll say. There were some parts that were pretty abrupt just like DWorks LOVE to do (sudden Ingot sex scene, much random), but overall it's pretty fine and dandy. Perhaps the only qualms I had was that the suspenseful prologue was kind of wasted, but every now and then it would introduced bits and pieces of the main plotline just to remind the audiences that it hasn't forgotten about it lol. Recommended to anyone who loves a good Love-Comedy, or just a relaxing reading experience.

Oh yeah, that . I can't believe how loud I was laughing when I saw that. Speaking of which,

Venus Blood Gaia's new system is pretty harsh -_-". I had to restart 2 times because I screwed up my resource management big time and wasted way too much Arcana to create useful troops. That and the chapter 2 White Snake literally just freaking annihilated my entire army in 2 rounds (Btw this is a cool one, you can line up up to 18 units in a row to Attack the enemy and fight bosses, which is SERIOUSLY cool!).
I don't play Venus Blood for the art lol...
Speaking of which, this Gaia seems to be strangely similar to Dea Ex Machina's universe... is this a coincidence?

Yay, Venus Blood GAIA is out!
And there are a bunch of new VNs who although has a rather classic (used to death) plot, seemed to have pretty good art.

It's not that bad once you get used to it Kaimax!
Even at Extremely Hard the Final Boss was a piece of cake after all! Although I don't think there's anyone who could beat Queen Bee at Extremely Hard when they were first starting out - shit's insane if you can't break through its defenses.
Kadukura Kou for obvious reasons.
The duo combi by Trap Master and Hentai Head is pretty good as well.
Even though the Simulakarum (or whatever it's spelled) are weaker in fire power, they are far more annoying than the final bosses themselves, if only because they're so mobile. To be honest, this final boss cannot compare at all to the Extremely Hard final boss of Baldr Sky Dive 2. That one is the REAL thing.

Hahahaha, no. That depends on whether you're Diamond or above, and since the top players already know each other there the chances that you'd get dropped for their 'friends' to get Challenger or win a game is like 10 times higher than anywhere else. We don't have as many players as compared to any other servers I'm afraid, so the chances of a troll by Diamond/Challenger players are that much higher. You don't know how much of an immature dickheads these people are until you've played them, seriously.
On the other hand, most of the good players know jungle timers, knows the estimated time of an incoming gank, knows where and when to put a ward down (like say, at 4 minutes the enemy will likely gank, ward tribush and stuff), would actually do god damn dragon when the enemies are down, and so on. So it depends on your preference.

Shining Braves? Yeah I know about the sequel. Haven't downloaded it yet for whatever reasons, but I'll do it... soon. The link's there.
At the very least I need to wait until after NaNoWriMo, or my concentration is just going to be fractured.
EDIT: Subarashi no Hibiki is highly philosophical and runs around on many different protagonists. It is ABSOLUTELY RECOMMENDED that you follow strictly to a playthrough, because that will give you the best satisfaction. I recommend G-Seeker, they really know how to get through a VN in the proper way. Unfortunately that also makes them rather slow at producing VNs, but Subarashi has one there if I remember correctly.
The ending btw, made me laugh bloody murder. It still remains as my Number One VN forever for that single ending alone... I absolutely love the mind fucks there. Some people can't appreciate it, and I admit certain parts are tedious as fuck, but the ending is all worth it.

... It's been two months. Or at least one month, I can't recall.
During this entire two months only Baldr Sky Zero had managed to attract my attention. Everything else fell short even from just the look of their synopsis.
... Am I too picky? Or did anyone else feel the same?

Eh, BS X is a disappointment. I suppose the sex scenes may be worth the pursuit, but that's only for some of them, and the artist is different. The story basically tells what happens slightly after True End, and how the events in 'That' 0 affects these new events.
And Kou was so, so, so, so much weaker is not even funny. Then again, he doesn't need to fight for his life and murder millions of enemies.
