theboxcarracer reacted to Stray Cat in What type of music are you all into ?
Don't do it man. (Don't click the spoiler button, do finish Virtues Last Reward.) Pretty sure that Christmas break was the only two successive all nighters I've pulled.
Also, TWEWY music anyone?

theboxcarracer reacted to MKDude in Potential Review Show
I feel like my popularity must be lacking...
I'm a professional game journalist, and one of the first to do visual novel reviews. My latest one was My Girlfriend is the President because JAST wanted me to, and I've done half a dozen VN reviews for various gaming sites.
While I sob and plug myself for visual novel fans to follow me, I'll help out however I can as well. Just ask, I've been doing reviews for a few years now.
It would be nice if you guys supported me as well. I have to fight with higher ups to post reviews since the 18+ nature isn't favorable for general gaming sites, and showing that there is a loyal fanbase would help a lot.

Welcome!
Katawa Shoujo is a masterpiece that will not be forgotten in my lifetime. You should also read Tsukihime

You're just incapable.
The best way to argue is to make the other party recognize that all things are subjective, and then everyone quits because by that logic nobody could be right.

theboxcarracer reacted to SanadaShadow in What Video Games Are You Playing Right Now?
I've been replaying Layton and the Curious Village, as well as Super Robot Wars: Original Generation.
LCV: I cannot believe how much I have not yet forgotten. I probably missed a few hint coins, but every puzzle done perfectly and no used hint coins leaves little to be desired.
SRW/SRT: Ingram's awesome. On a side note, also damn him to Hell.
I love this game's strategy and its spirit mechanics and the mechs and the special attacks and that you can change mechs and you can support and all the story and everything, (haha, run-on sentence) but the absolute most awesome part of the game is the music. Beowulf forever and Time Diver is just way past badass. Cool As Ice is a name that understates the music, and Ryusei's theme shows off the GBA's singing capabilities rather badly unless at x1.5 speed, where it becomes super-ultra awesome (in fact, all the themes sound even better at x1.5). The music is so awesome, there's actually even an option to keep the music until the entire turn ends. OG2 ain't never coming near this shit (even if it does have Code ATA).

theboxcarracer got a reaction from SanadaShadow in Allow Me To Introduce Myself
Hey, everyone. I made an account here some time ago (I actually can't remember when, to be honest) but promptly forgot about it and never posted anything. Upon revisiting these forums, however, I realized that I want to be a part of this community in at least some small way. I thought I'd introduce myself.
I've been playing VNs since February of this year. If you count the Ace Attorney series as VNs, then I've been playing since a few years after Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney came out on the DS in America. I guess my love for that series is a small part of what introduced me to the existence of the Visual Novel genre in the first place, though I didn't try one for the longest time.
I finally cracked and played one last February. It was (I know it's typical, but hear me out) Katawa Shoujo. I have only played one route of that game, and I will probably never play any of the others. The reason being that the route I played was Hanako's route, and I... happen to be a burn victim, actually. I'm lucky in that my scarring is entirely restricted to my legs, but it's still severe enough that I get weird looks when it's not covered up. I was also recovering from a pretty nasty breakup at the time, so Hanako's route in Katawa Shoujo hit me in just about every emotional weak point I had. I bawled my eyes out at parts of that route. I can't go back to that game because of how hard it hit me. I think it's incredible, and not overrated in the least.
After that, I realized that this genre obviously had something to offer, and I've delved in a little deeper. I've since played Ever 17, Shuffle, Hoshizora no Memoria, Shinikiss, G Senjou no Maou, Grisaia no Kajitsu, Fate/Stay Night, Majikoi (well, all of what's translated, at least), and others that I can't seem to remember at the moment. Oh, speaking of remembering, I did just finish Remember 11, which was extremely dissatisfying.
I also really love music, and play the guitar. I have a real wanting to learn Japanese, but there are no courses near where I live and I have no idea where to start when it comes to learning online.
I also play a number of other genres of games. I play anything from Call of Duty to Tales of Xillia to Rogue's Legacy. I really do like video games. I just finished Dishonored (Games with Gold, am I right?) which was pretty awesome.
Anyways, that's me. I hope I can actually be a part of this community!

Welcome to Fuwa, A.K.A. Promised Loli Land! Have a loli:
You should add Umineko no Naku Koro ni to your "to read" list, just don't be fooled by the Official Theory.
I'm also learning japanese, online, and I wish you good luck. To help, you can see this thread for useful resources.
Hope you have fun and I'll see you around.

theboxcarracer got a reaction from Kenshin_sama in What are you playing?
I like A Link to the Past and Majora's Mask both better, but I grew up playing Ocarina of Time and I will never be able to see it as anything other than amazing because of that. Also, I really love the music of the Zelda games, and Ocarina had some of the best in the series, in my opinion. I'm a music guy, by the way. Music is awesome.
