  1. I'll note that I was actually RPing Cystella there
  2. Oh I forgot about Ragnar's R standing for Rape, ill add that in here then
  3. current IRC memes: 1. Solidbatman is a lolicon, siscon, shotacon and any other con you can think of 2. Kuudere x Kendjin (Kuudjin) is canon BL couple 3. Stealing nicks is fun Also note that Cystella the chatbot said yes when I asked her to be my girlfriend. Achievement!
  4. I'd be interested, though I wonder if there'd be enough material to really discuss much
  5. I'm guessing that's one of the famed "uguu cages" from otome games? OT: damn that pic is cute.
  6. ^ This spoiler convo is a Fal spoiler: I'd say Lise->Fal->Torta works best due to storyline structure. Most important however is Torta last of the three initial routes.
  7. ^ I'd say The Other Side of the Sky is pretty telling, given the lyrics. Damn, SR lyrics were awesome.
  8. Well, if it can play VNs will depend on what CPU architecture they are using. If it's ARM, it's prolly not gonna work for various reasons (essentially, the ARM cpu can't understand normal PC binary instructions). If it's x86, well those tablets have shitty battery life usually so enjoy . As for the whole multi-device thing: I imagine it might be partly a cost thing, beside the convenience of owning just one device. COnvenience, though... well, consider the plight of the tech-tard who has to operate 5 different devices
  9. ...and that was supposed to be in my signature block. whoops.

  10. I guestpost onSometimes Clever now. Solidbatman is still cooler than me, though.

  11. Hmm, I thought it was fine actually. No idea how well it was originally written, but I don't think the script lost that much power from the translation.
  12. I haven't really read many mangagamer releases,. but Kira Kira and Deardrops were pretty good (and almost typo free, <10 in each game afaik.).
  13. Romance is very meh and mostly only implied. Shone-style plot. Osu distracting from post.
  14. I really wonder whether that was the cause lol (I presume this is appendicitis we talk about btw).
  15. Tbh, I think the best VNs often combine a romance/interpersonal plot with a strong scenario. You can see this in F/SN and Ever17 (but not ever17 true route). That's why even scenario-based games usually have you target specific girls. I enjoy both sides of the "split". but I'm disappointed if there is too little romance at times (Aoishiro damn you). 999 didn't disappoint me though although the romance was pretty low, so I guess what I'm really looking for isn't complete immersion in the main character, but a good story told in first-person with added elements that help immersion and/or multiple scenarios. Minor/SteveMedium-spoiler:Rewrite:Akane
  16. ...And personally I think Kotori is the best route to start with, and also the best character route. I think it's easy how split people's opinions are on the character routes in Rewrite, actually. It's probably because they offer different flavors of story - which some people call inconsistency but I'd like to call variety . Soon I will begin a new playthrough of hoshimemo. I'll actually play through the common route again w/o skipping probably, to get a good analysis of it and pick up certain info I need for the overambitious blogpost I'm making (prepare for massive tvtropes linking btw) . I'll likely go for miss antisocial whatshername.
  17. "kekekekekekekekkekekkekeke" -- laughing. I think this is originally korean style but I stole it Not sure what other quirks I have tbh
  18. Kanji memorized: 294 Surprisingly enough, I've managed to keep this alive, though not super-active. How? Basically, I haven't learnt new kanji that often (yesterday I did 25, though, ending because the lesson ended there). However, I never missed a review. The main issue is getting started with stuff, and finding the energy necessary (visualization and imaginatory memory work is intense for me and tires me out). After reading through Heisig's info between lessons, I got to one where he more systematically explained the method. After actually doing it this way, I've been seeing a higher success rate in memorization. Felt a bit annoyed this wasn't explained before. Oh well. Next time I learn I'll be starting the plots section. Will be interesting.
  19. *Protag being oblivious to love without reason despite the heroine being painfully deredere. I can accept SelectiveObliviousness... if done well. Major offender: Shoichi-Kanade in Deardrops. *Girls saying no all the way through sex scenes (well, fully avoiding this is pretty rare...). *Protagonist suddenly becoming stupid for no reason (hi Kotarou in Lucia!). *Lack of saves / save slots. There shouldn't be any limit on saves in a PC release. *(NScripter specific, usually) no BGM fade --I could go on and on about system problems
  20. Played the ep. Nice story developments and I liked the new sprite introduced as well I also realized that I've been assuming the Unhacker is male, but there's no guarantee of that, is there? Interesting. Then again, I am a bit too much of a Yuri fan... About the microfreezes, I think they might be a more serious problem than I first imagined. The timing on the second screen seems inconsistent, sometimes I got a really tough timing on the first cannon, sometimes not, and the stuttering might be the cause of this. The stuttering is pretty noticeable for me as well. Looking at the CPU usage of firefox, it's coming up to 25% which is pretty crazy. I can play 1080p video on youtube's highly inefficient player with only cpu rendering and decoding and have only 17%ish peak usage (I also had a tab with unhack running at that time, seems it doesnt use much when not selected). The stuttering also seemed to get worse the longer I played (had quite a few deaths... qq). About level design, not sure if it was that good of an idea to have two keys on screen 1 but only require 1 to proceed, making you have to backtrack later if a bit inattentive. Screens before boss are largely the same difficulty with or without keyboard as they tend to require patience/timing more than anything else, boss is much easier to dodge spikes using keyboard (was bored with keyboard, more or less just right for mouse).

  22. Auto speed is really uneven, no commentary
