Interesting, although I doubt we'll see the campaign go live until possibly later this year. Never played WEE, does anyone know if it's any good?

I'm waiting until Episode 1 is released on Steam. I'm a big fan of the Spice & Wolf novels, so Isuna Hasekura would really have to let me down for me not to enjoy it.

Indeed
Why does Takeshi say "If we dont act fast Tsugumi is dead", maybe Sora doesnt know about her virus, but I thought it means basically she can't die, AFAIK and I think she's so cold and distrustful as she's been tricked since she was little.. which makes me sad for her 
I heard it was good, but that the original translation was problematic to say the least, but supposedly the latest patch fixed that. I'll be checking it out when it comes out, at least.

Trust me, it's worth watching/reading.
What context?IndeedWhy does Takeshi say "If we dont act fast Tsugumi is dead", maybe Sora doesnt know about her virus, but I thought it means basically she can't die, AFAIK and I think she's so cold and distrustful as she's been tricked since she was little.. which makes me sad for her
Stop it! That's horrible!
Somebody please post that gif, I can't stop laughing! XD
ok I found it. I didn't want to do it since I'm posting on a PS3 and boy what a horrible browsing experience but here
Don't click this until you've finished Tsugumi's good end in Ever17. Heck, it's not even that spoiler-y but I'm covering my butt here

Well I think its because
Tsugumi is so mean to Takeshi and most others, saying she isnt his friend etc, but then she tells him the story of being trapped in the research facilty and how the doctor/researcher makes her think he's her friend, but in truth, he isn't

The "we have to act fast or Tsugumi will die!" part. I don't remember Takeshi ever saying that

I'm sure its some text
doesn't he say that to Sora or something? Or maybe its some text but he doesnt actually say it

Recently played my first VN, Saya no uta, and would like something similar if possible. Really enjoyed the story for other than sex scene reasons. Any recommendations?

If you're looking for more "psychological horror," try playing/reading Higurashi or Kara no Shoujo...

Re: Tsugumi Ever 17
Fair enough I understood her character a bit more in the end but I still think she should have offered a heartfelt apology to Takeshi for abusing him, hitting him and generally being a b*tch, not being very nice. I wonder if her angle was more like "Girl is mean to boy, because girl doesn't know how to give love and secretly likes boy"
Do you know the meaning of the term tsundere?

Unfortunately I don't, what does it mean? Edit: Ah I get what you mean now (looked on Wiki)

Hey guys, should I play Chaos Head or directly dig in Steins gate ?
I remember watching the CH anime and liking it, but I didn't watch it all of it.

C;H is worth playing, people in the thread said the anime isn't good, too. If you do play it, make sure to read the B-Ending too.
Chaos;Head is nice.
Steins;Gate is amazing.
Your call. There are some very minor callbacks to C;H in S;G

The Chaos;Head anime was a terrible adaptation to a great visual novel.

Might as well play Chaos;Head first to fill the time until the official release of Steins;Gate.

Chaos Gate B ending, the most annoying bad ending to get in a VN.

Been putting some more time to Higurashi MG (currently in episode 2) and indeed there are quite a few errors and other weird stuff already. It isn't that bad tho so props to them for going thru the extra trouble.
Aksys, please bring this to Steam.
Did you post any impressions of Episode 3 and 4? I'm really enjoying reading your impressions, that's the best part of Higurashi almost.
Haha yeah it's pretty fun when I'm not busy cowering in fear. The extras of the first 4 arcs helped a lot. I'm not sure if I posted about it, 3 was where my attitude started changing but at that point the story was still leaning too much on the horror elements (and too little on anything else) for me to enjoy the mystery like I am now.
Starting to think that
episode 1's ending was about Rena and Mion trying to give him an antidote.
edit: just reached the "my favorite wine" tip
...........well dang. that's a pretty huge push to the supernatural argument. i don't know if i should still think it's all human-made. man.... i don't know. this is kinda huge, i wasn't ready for this tip
at least they're obviously heavily building an "oyashiro-sama inside furude" angle so i'll keep it in mind for now, i guess...

....I'm so going to regret this... but for now, I'm into that theory. It just clicks in my head. Still solves nothing, though, hahaha.. haha.. huh.
Hinting heavily towards what happened, don't read if you don't want the answer. It's shown at the end of the 6th arch in the anime not sure if it's mentioned at all at that point in the VN
do you remember what they did to Tomitake during the Watanagashi in the first arch? The dialogue when "attacking" Keichii at that time mentions him meeting the same fate as Tomitake

Ooooooooh
Pretty freaky shit happening now.. the Kid is in a small stock room (?) with a tiny bed and has a vision (?) of a girl being hit and crying, someone says "You bought happiness, you traded it for that girl's life."
Could the girl be Coco? Maybe not.. we see her at the start of the VN?
.. ETA - Deja vu in the infirmary with You....
Wait a minute.... I know! The girl in the kids dream was Tsugumi. In her route she mentions "a kid with amnesia" in the hospital. That's our Kid... I think.

WTF.. now this is getting weird.. Sara and the Kid went on the whale ride at "Planet Kuikui" but in all other routes it was Coco who was said to have done that.. in You's route you see Coco in the whale room and Coco talks to Tsugumi about riding the whale with you :s
Sara = Coco :s
HOLY CRAP why did the Kid not look like the Kid when he looked in the mirror?

OK..
So the Kid has the missing piece of Sara's mirror (?) in his thumb (?) And if the hologram looks like Takeshi, how come Sora says its 'very old'?
