  @Terrence Higurashi was my first try, I liked both the anime and manga, so much so that I also went through every possible English translated available sidestory. I similarly approached the VN after having totally spoiled story line and just Higurashi multimedia experience wasn't enough to keep me interested. Also the version I had was only a 640x480 resolution so the visual quality wasn't there

  https://youtu.be/nPwpoXdG_Zo I'm still debating if I want to listen through the whole conference since I like to stay in the dark on Visual Novel type games, but the new Uchikoshi game was announced, as well as was a trailer for another Visual Novel (?) Yu-No, and a release date for 428 Shibuya Scramble (September 4th iirc?). 428 will have a demo this Summer. The Uchikoshi game's name is AI: The Somnium Files. It's got 3D models like Zero Time Dilemma, it's a detective game (male main character investigating murders), and it seems to have some alternate-reality / alt-dimension stuff going on in it (environment changes drastically)? For long time Uchikoshi, Zero Escape, and Infinity fans, some spoilerific meme stuff for past Uchikoshi games that came out of the conference: spoiler

  New Pokemon Game: You Choosing Pikachu or Eevee?

  If I'll get it, definitively Eevee. Personally I don't really like Pikachu xD It's interesting that one can connect to GO - and even transfer from it, but Its just sad that you only fight trainers and no wild pokemon - you can only catch these.... The next thing is that there are only 151 Pokémon with a few Alola forms and 1 completely new Pokémon... :/ Why not include them in the after-story? What I really like is that your starter is on your shoulder/on top of your head. It seems that other pokemon walk around too, which is cool! And it is possible to play together on one console! And walk around ingame :) @Aruseus493 I think there won't be much double Battles unless there is someone you play with (it is possible to play it together) But It would be cool to have another chance with espeon and umbreon ;)

  We need to rely on the 1% of Games that are truly great now. And only 1% of that 1% is truly a masterpiece of nier perfection (yes I made a pun about Nier, specifically Nier Automata).

  Alright, I've returned from PAX. Rushed through a bit (folks I was going with were a little overwhelmed) and there honestly wasn't much I absolutely had to see this year, so I don't think I really missed much anyways besides not trying any VR.

  Bumping just because... Oh mah gah, kawaii Setsuna (I may not like her personality all the time, but she was cute here). x) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWISJCjCM6-l9OPsgmIyqrcUfFznH-nMO Almost to the big breaking point of White Album 2 Intro Chapter. I hope the Vita version of the game has the whole Second Chapter (and that the translation guide I am using is easy to follow). Edit: I reached the major climactic moment of Introductory Chapter. Will be uploading that as we speak.

  @paulnamida Afaik their new translation is at least an improvement, though when I played it there were a few parts where I thought that the translation could still be better.

  @terrence said in Occultic Nine Heading to More Platforms, Getting "True" Ending: Heard some people say it sucked too, but I'm not sure if they actually played the game or were just judging the premise / the anime. If they were talking about the ending itself, I agree it sucked. I don't think Punch Line! was entirely bad. But yeah, it was definitely very, very weird. Man, I didn't knew about the new project. I guess they haven't teased more of it.
