And maybe ten of them will actually play any of the games.

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 46 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

Oh yeah I saw the list and am pretty sure I'm not even installing any of them, but claiming the bundle in solidarity

[–] Burghler@sh.itjust.works 7 points 11 hours ago

Y-yea... For solidarity

[–] CrazyHorse@lemmy.cafe 13 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Did the same. Not sure, just by looking at the icon/thumbnail, that any of it was made for me. But am still proud to have them added to my account!

Apparently some of them are very good in their own right, telling a compelling and interesting story and not just being horny cash-grabs so I'm tempted to give them a shot.
I played the original Yu-No because of how it is the foundation upon which all modern visual novel games are built. That was a difficult experience and I do not recommend it to anyone not already very interested in the history of the genre, there is a lot of content there that is not for me.
But that was the game that made the industry say "oh shit, these things can be good, too".

Side-note: the modern rerelease of Yu-No has the more objectionable stuff stripped out, but then we've got to have the censorship discussion all over again.

Anyway. My point is this: I have also overlooked these games but might have to rethink that.

I'm one. I played one of the ones I didn't already have yesterday.

High Tail Hall?

[–] ITeeTechMonkey@lemmy.world 9 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Ya, looking over the list I couldn't be bothered to obtain a copy of "Helping The Hotties".

[–] Davel23@fedia.io 54 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Really? You'd leave the hotties unhelped?

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 7 points 10 hours ago

Hey, everyone, OP hates hotties and thinks they should stay unhelped!

[–] biofaust@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago (4 children)

I didn't see the option, but also Huney Pop and others don't work on Linux.

Can you just add them as nonsteam games?
Where do you install them to?

[–] Davel23@fedia.io 14 points 20 hours ago

I used Heroic Games Launcher and added it as a non-Steam game.

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 7 points 19 hours ago

Lutris is very likely your friend here

[–] carmo55@lemmy.zip 11 points 20 hours ago

Can confirm it works fine with wine / proton

[–] rem26_art@fedia.io 5 points 20 hours ago

The linux version of Hunie Pop didn't launch for me on Fedora 42, but the Windows version did with Heroic using GE-Proton-Latest
