Rime

Love that game. As for me, *looks at avatar* Uh... Alice takes a day trip to Helsinki, and discovers that cold trees are really rough. She takes home a branch of one. Baragon is not impressed and suffers as Alice remarks that "It was an ice trip. There's snow way I would go back, though." Turns out, the tree magically forces people to make puns.

A surface 3, because I need it for working on stuff. No way I'm going to let hours of downtime at college be wasted without working on a project.

I got my copy of Majo Koi Nikki not too long ago, though I haven't had as much time as I would like to play it.

My heart is as cold and frozen as the landscape in my avatar. Also, I'm 5up3r 3dgy. God, that was painful to type. Don't make me do it ever again.

Welcome welcome! It's always good to see someone taking the plunge toward happiness. I wish you luck with the game and welcome you to the site.

This is really something that would depend on the person. Personally, I consider VNs to be their own form of media which is very close to a book, maybe even one of those choose-your-own-adventure books, but is different enough to warrant a different name. Calling it a game would imply that there is much more of an interactive element, but given that it is computer software it seems rather difficult to separate it from the same category that "games" get lumped into. I would probably call it a game in the same sense that I would call The Beginner's Guide a game. It has elements of games, but those elements only serve as a mechanism to tell the story, which is the payoff. Contrast this with a game like Antichamber, where the story is just a metaphor for the game being played and is only a part of the experience, with the rest being filled with the logic and puzzle-driven gameplay. ...or we could go that route.

I wish that I had more to say. I'm just kind of stunned. But man does live for the sake of Ass, so I must give the like.

"stilted speech, unnatural utterances, redundant repetition, awkward alliteration, and their ilk " I see what you did there. Not only do I approve, I'm very proud.

I haven't read all too many so far, but if I had to pick, it would be Hatsuyuki Sakura. It was a great reading experience and stands just barely above the others I've read. And... that girl is too cute.

And now I return the welcome! Hope you have fun with all of the crowd.

I'm gonna have to say CGP Grey. It's tough to choose since everyone that I watch I like, but there's no meaning in favorites if it's easy to choose, I guess.

Welcome welcome~ There's something to be said for exploring all of the options, but personally I like to try to make it through the route first and then go back through to find the other things, mostly because it's a bit easier to use the skip to get between choices faster. Though, I usually do save before things that seem like important choices if it seems like the story will branch or if there might be a dead end. I also recall a lovely moment playing through the Fate route where I But I digress, welcome and enjoy your stay.

Nice to meet you all as well! Well, it's not so much that I'm interested in translation as that I'm on a project so I decided that making an account would be a good idea. But thanks for the suggestions!

I like it a fair amount, yes. Despite the emotional state it left me in, I found it to be enjoyable. I'll be hanging out, thank you~

I will cheer for this in a completely unbiased manner!

Rime is a word referring to a kind of hoarfrost (see left) which leaves a layer of ice on everything. It also happens to be pronounced almost exactly like ライム (as in lime), which is another common theme in my usernames. I decided to go with the double meaning and thus came the name, which I particularly like due to how short it is. And also, ライムの突撃 sounds great.

...way too cute. If people continue to bribe me with cute pictures, I'll be happy to stay.

I figured it was about time for introductions. The sentiment is shared~

So, I'm Rime. I've been at least somewhat involved in anime for many years, but not too long ago I moved into the visual novel scene as well. I've been studying the language for... a while... and do some translation stuff. I've only read a few VNs, but I intend to steadily add more to my list and decided that it was about time to register here ;_; Aside from that, I generally enjoy computer/gaming stuff and in particular, puzzles. よろしく and all that business.

Just putting this one out there, but Hatsuyuki Sakura is pretty good in that department.
