    Barktooth reacted to XReaper in VNDB Tab icon?   
    nah he/she/it simply means the symbol of a vntb-tab in whichever browser , but either way that topic itself sure is some next-generation trolling, even surpassing the lax criteria for it to count as mere spamming. heil literary genocide, it´s happening...

    Translated by a certain "Zoo Corporation", huh? If VNDB is anything to go by, it seems it was created/hired by a bunch of Japanese companies.
    As for what little we can see of the English, I don't see any glaring issues. That's good.
    Wouldn't be the first time a Japanese company suddenly releases something in English with minimal effort put forth. Doesn't seem that's the case. Good.
    Now... it's a nukige... I can see the appeal of playing all ages versions of them but... What kind is it? Did they add scenes to replace the gaping holes left by the sex? Did they just cut it out? If it's the latter... Even I'd have to admit it'd be nothing but an hour of meaningless content.
     
    Edit: If that long.

    I feel it is worthy of both my time and yours to make this announcement.
    As of this day, and I'm sure you can check the date yourself, my forum name has changed due to personal reasons. My insincerest apologies for any inconvenience caused.
    In my benevolence, allow me to inform you that you are permitted to address me as you did previously if you would so prefer. I won't blame you for it. I expected no better from you anyway.
     
    If you don't know who I am, then this message surely wasn't intended for you, in which case, shoo shoo -- you're clogging up the traffic.

                               Have a good day.

    The appeal of them is that they're actually boys, though. If you're ignoring it, you're probably just better off reading something with flat girls.

    Barktooth reacted to Kaguya in Ok guys, being titillated and looking for story. Which comes first for you?   
    When I want H, I normally read H manga instead, but still, I'll play some nukige from time to time.
    In normal VNs, sex scenes are just something for me to skip unless they have impecable timing and I just so happen to want to masturbate. 
    I never look for both at the same time, and the mix is honestly kind of annoying in most cases, tbh.

    I like bears. They're cute.
    Wouldn't ever want to meet one in real life, however. They seem dangerously carnivore.

    I don't. It allows me to tell whether users are Portuguese or Spanish, as they're the only ones who get it right on their first try.
    Incorrect. You didn't much like Grisaia, blasphemer.
    Unfortunately, my accent changes every day. Occasionally it sounds British. I am, regrettably, not, however.

    God dammit. I knew the day would come. I'd get to three thousand posts and I'd have bugger all to say.
    That means I need to come up with something. That does, unfortunately, also mean that effort on my part will be required; effort which I'm simply not willing to contribute.
    So here's the deal. You come up with something for me to do.
    Perhaps you'd be interested on my thoughts on a particular topic?
    Perhaps you'd like me to read something for you?*
    Perhaps you'd like me to send money your way?
     
    Yeah sure, I'd like a lot of things too. You can ask; nothing wrong with that. I'll just laugh at your request if I deem it stupid; or unnecessary, or useless, or strange, or something of the sort.
    Additionally, free of charge, you can ask for a "love-filled" PM which I'll absolutely send your way. It'll thenceforward be used to harass you whenever the mood strikes.

    Barktooth got a reaction from Vorathiel in [Poll + Discussion] Censorship in Gaming: Is self-censorship actually censorship?   
    IMO if any changes are done to a game to make it less objectionable by whatever audience it's being adapted for, it's censorship. However, not all changes done to an adaption are for the purpose of making it less objectionable; some are done just to fit the audience better - and that may or may not include censoring.
    It's hard to determine without directly asking the persons involved in the making of an adaption whether a change was made for censorship reasons or to fit the audience better. For example, some fighter girl's armor might have looked pretty revealing in the original game but was replaced with armor that covers the body better in an adaption for the Western market. This could be due to censorship, or it could be simply because the people making the adaption thought Westerners would prefer the characters to have more practical armor that actually looks like it protects them, instead of leaving them exposed. 
    I'd say it depends, sometimes the changes can obvious enough to determine that they were made due to censorship reasons. If an adaptation removes or totally changes many morally-questionable scenes it can be reasonably ascertained that this was done for censorship reasons. But if they do a few tweaks here and there like changing some characters' armor to be less revealing to better fit the audience, I'm not gonna hang them for it.
    Personally, though, I generally prefer adaptations to be as close to the original as possible. Thus, whether it's censorship or changing the game to fit the market better, I would likely still favor a more faithful adaptation.
