What's the deal with Visual novels on Steam?
Being "neutered" always?

Gog at least, offers them "complete", or the developer makes sure to unleash an "unlocker"/"patch" or something...

There are some excellent titles here, like Full Metal Daemon Muramasa or the Fate series, yet they are locked in the minor/woke-friendly version, alas. Especially muramasa, is also way more expensive than in its original site sells.

Isn't Fate just the Vita version but localized?
You can still find patches on the developers website for the adult version for ms VNs, and they should work on Steam.

Yes, but it also has some changes in certain speech lines and tone of language, too...

Not for all VNs apparently, alas. And not all original site patches work on steam version either, according to some steam gamers on certain occasions...

If you want to look at some lewd certoon drawings, there’s plenty of that on the web.

I've seen people complaining about the name, in the same spirit people complained about Aerith vs Aeris, but that's it.


I haven't started the 3rd route yet, but so far I'd say this is a perfectly fine localization.

This is the web.

Higurashi or Steins;Gate are not cut or censored in any way

Neither one is an eroge.

If looking at "some lewd certoon drawings" was all there was to it, then you would be right. There's a lot more to it though. Some of these VNs have excellent stories. Some of these adult games are actually good games, and I think if they weren't, then the titties alone wouldn't be enough to carry them.

It's sort of like, "Why play Battlefield when you can just look at war photos on the Internet?"

Horrible comparison.

A match in Battlefield is never the same as the other while VN's are linear as a tube.
