I just wish for more interesting erogame adaptions. However, it is sort of ludicrous to ignore the original label of a game: instead of following people trying to stigmatize the "eroge" term, it would be more constructive to use it with a pertinent timing and context. If you really want to talk about that specific kind of game (that people often call them dating sim for some reason) that may or may not be an eroge, Bishoujo game is prolly your best bet. That said, the good thing is that "hentai game" is less and less favored, considering its misuse (same as Otaku in fact). It is obvious that a majority of eroge are VN, but that's all. VN and Eroge are both a "label" for a game, as VN is the description of the visual format and "gameplay", while eroge is the description of "content". If we imagine a second that an original touhou game had ero content, it would be an eroge, yet not a VN but a shoot'em up. As explained already, it is just a game with ero content, nothing more, nothing less. An eroge may not be a VN altogether.Ī plain example: Rapelay is not a VN, yet it -is- an eroge. Eroge is not a subclass of a visual novel at all. An eroge is a subclass of a visual novel. I think the term eroge should be thrown out the window myself.Īs said, Clannad is not an eroge. I was a little weary to check out VNs but I learned that F/SN did not have a lot of sex scenes and you can tell when they are coming if you play the voiced version. This past summer I played my first VN, Fate/stay night, which is an eroge. When White Album first started I thought an eroge's point was sex.
That's where my misinterpretations came from as well. Perhaps the term "eroge" itself is giving some people the wrong impression. Sadly, I've seen some "eroge adaptations" get a pass from some anime fans because they think that these eroges, like most porn movies, have paper-thin plots. I mean, some of the classic 80s action flicks had sex in them should we call them "erotic" movies? Or is it better to call them "action" movies?
#Why people dislike eroges movie
I mean, plenty of Hollywood movies have sex scenes in them, but they're promoted as "action flick", or "sci-fi", or "horror" or "comedy" the sex scene is just part of the movie, and not the focus of it, so you wouldn't label the movie as "erotica" first and foremost. If a game/visual novel source material is mostly about explosive action-adventure or platonic romance (for lack of a better term, perhaps) or something non-sexual, and simply happens to have some sex scenes in it, is "eroge" really the best classification term for that? After reading through this thread, I wonder if we should stop calling some of these game/visual novel adaptations "eroges" (I already feel that "eroge" hardly fits Clannad, but that's a slight tangent).
