Non-notable video game failing WP:GNG with no reliable independent in-depth sources (WP:VRS), such as WP:VG/RS.

The only review is from Capsule Computers, which accepts volunteer writers and does not appear to be reliable (noticeboard mention). I am not sure about the content of The Anime Encyclopedia, but assuming significant coverage of the game (and not the anime), that would make 1 source. Every other source are product pages, directory entries or very brief listings -- nothing that would come close to significant coverage. The game has simply not received reviews from reliable outlets. Mainstream Western magazines of the time would not have covered an eroge game and I have no way to search adult-rated Japanese magazines on the off chance they have. Custom reliable source search does not return any usable results.

(Article moved to mainspace from declined draft, so taking to AfD since draftify no longer applies. I previously reviewed and declined the draft on the same notability grounds, although a couple new sources were added since.) —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 11:27, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

user:Hellknowz, this lacking of reviews is due to a irrelevant filter, that rejected the following list. I have asked for calling off the filter:

• [1]
• Euphoria (PC): Beyond Horror, Beyond Hentai, Beyond Art
• Euphoria VN Review
• Games for Adults Halloween: euphoria
• What Is This Feeling? A Euphoria Game Review

These are not reliable sources (unless you can demonstrate author credentials, editorial practices or oversight, and history of credibility of the outlet, such as use by other reliable sources). —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 13:21, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

Why are the deemed unreliable? Each of them is a lengthy, in-depth review.

Forgot to mention, the following review is on its way to the references:

What makes them reliable? Anyone can make a blog and start posting reviews. See WP:RS for what makes sources reliable and WP:VG/RS what in particular makes reliable video game sources. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 13:46, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

• Comment - All of the above reviews are from blogs, which are unreliable, since there is no editorial oversight. That's the issue with them. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 13:49, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

• Delete It's safe to say that major outlets wouldn't cover this due to its extreme subject matter. Whether you think that's a flaw of the notability system that something disgusting but with high production values could get ignored, the fact is that it would undoubtedly be considered non-notable and fails WP:GNG with the current sources provided._{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 19:30, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

If new sources are found and this survives deletion it should be moved to Euphoria (video game).--67.70.101.238 (talk) 20:35, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
