Muv-Luv
Description (IGDB)
Muv-Luv is a Japanese visual novel originally released as an adult game and the first game in the Muv-Luv franchise. Subsequent releases of the games were with the adult content removed. The game consists of two parts: Muv-Luv Extra and Muv-Luv Unlimited, which is unlocked after completing the two main heroine routes in Extra. The gameplay in Muv-Luv follows a linear plot line, which offers pre-determined scenarios and courses of interaction, and focuses on the differing scenarios of the female main characters. In 2015, the game, alongside Muv-Luv Alternative, photonflowers*, and photonmelodies♮, was fully funded for an English release on Kickstarter, for Windows PC via Steam, PlayStation Vita, and mobile platforms.

Muv-Luv Alternative Total Eclipse
À propos du jeu
The Muv-Luv series is an epic saga told in three parts: Muv-Luv Extra, Muv-Luv Unlimited, and Muv-Luv Alternative. What begins as a tongue-in-cheek romantic comedy ultimately transforms into an action-packed thrill ride in a war-torn alternate reality, and it’s this drastic-yet-methodical genre twist that makes the final chapter the most highly-revered visual novel of all time. This is a story that will plant seeds in your brain early in the first act that you won’t even notice until they sprout in the third for maximum narrative payoff and crushing emotional impact. Don’t fall for Extra’s cutesy exterior. This series ventures into some of the darkest thematic territory you’ll ever see, and when the final curtain closes, you’ll likely need a forklift to pick your jaw up off the floor. Make no mistake: this is a story that will challenge you in ways few works of fiction dare attempt, and an emotional tour de force unlike any other.
This game contains the first two arcs: Extra, and Unlimited.
The final arc, Muv-Luv Alternative is the story’s massive climax, and is nearly the size of the first two combined.
Muv-Luv Extra
Takeru is your average unassuming high school senior whose entire world gets turned upside down one morning when he awakens to find himself in bed with the heiress to one of the world’s largest international conglomerates. She calls herself Meiya, and - despite never having met him before - she insists that the two of them are destined for one another. This comes much to the chagrin of his childhood friend Sumika, the girl next door who’s always had feelings for him, who realizes that if she doesn’t act fast, she might just lose him forever. All of which begs the question: just who is Meiya? And do his feelings for Sumika run deeper than he thought? In the end, he’ll need to decide between the girl who’s been with him through thick and thin, or the stranger who claims they’re bound together by fate.
But that’s only one side of the story.
Muv-Luv Unlimited
Just as the page turns on Takeru’s happily ever after, he awakens one morning in a world not his own. An alternate timeline, humanity on the brink of extinction. A world infested by alien invaders locked in a war that’s been raging on for decades. And yet, all the set pieces are the same - his house is still here, albeit dilapidated and barely standing. His school is still here, though it’s now a military academy. And even though they don’t recognize him, all his friends are here too… with one exception.
Was this all just a dream? Or was the world he thought he knew really a dream all along?

Muv-Luv est trop attachant et Unlimited est un twist sympa qui propose un bon changement dans la forme et légèrement dans le fond, ce qui sera largement poursuivie dans le gros morceau qu'est Alternative

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Muv-Luv is one of the strangest visual novel trilogy on the market. If you like the genre, you will love it. »
« If you’re looking for a game that pulls you in for the long haul, Muv-Luv is the game for you. »
« If you’re willing to invest the time in three lengthy visual novels, finish these two off early, so you can enjoy what is touted as a great third entry (which I’m excited to see) released later this year. »
« Muv-Luv is full of clichés and the execution of the ideas can’t keep up with their potential, but those ideas are absolutely unique, so you keep playing. [10/2016, p.41] »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« The required reading for pure awesomeness that is the sequel. It's still very good, heck even the first one is a hilarious ride before things get serious. DEAD. FNG. SERIOUS. »
« -Extra- It's your standard high school romance visual novel, but it's definitely one of the better ones out there. There were some moments and scenarios that I didn't like, but many more that I loved. Really great overall. Overall - 9/10 Sumika's Route: 9/10 Ayamine's Route: 8/10 Miki's Route: 10/10 Meiya's Route: 7/10 Chizuru's Route: 10/10 -Unlimited- A very interesting shift in the series. A few moments that didn't really feel right, even for Unlimited's setting, but overall really enjoyable. Definitely has me excited for Alternative. 9/10 »
« This visual novel is just somthing that will change your life once everything is said and done, being the 2/3 of a trilogy you experience a great narrative and a cute and little story about what true love really means. Every Vn fan out there must give this a try yes or yes »
« Well I played Muv-Luv Extra and Unlimited long before its release on Steam. I must admit that I was waiting for this release for a long time. The game is great, the story is solid in Extra but it's difficult to write a better story about a normal boy in high school. Unlimited however is a great one in that regard but I am not going to spoil anything. Let's just say that a famous anime called 'Attack on Titan' has been inspired by Muv-Luv Unlimited and Alternative. This visual novel is quite long and if you count both Extra and Unlimited then its super long. Now about characters - there are a lot of main characters in this game. In Extra it is about 8 without counting additional characters. In Unlimited that number gets even bigger. You should now that in Muv-Luv series, additional characters play a huge part in its story so its pretty uncommon as visual novel genre goes. I had a great fun playing this game and even its new release. Music in this game is pretty good but it gets better in Alternative. I gave this game 9 out of 10 because Degica decided not to include in this game one of its most beloved soundtrack which was Warudakumi because it was pretty much based on Ricky Martin's Livin la vida loca. I understand the decision but still - it's a huge loss for the game. Last thing - this new release has a much better interface than it's original. Of course it goes without saying that I am a huge fan of this series and I recommend it for everyone. It's a must-have for every fan of visual novel genre. »
