Tyrael Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Rejoice, AJTilley.com has farted out yet another pathetic attempt at an OELVN!

the_dive Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Akiko is a Goody Two-Shoes that suffers from being in an emotionally abusive relationship with a guy that’s just using her for sex (interestingly, Hikaru chooses to have sex with the guy while in Akiko’s body, which just seems like a really odd thing to do as a guy)What.

Hijiri Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Why do people support AJTilly again? I mean, after several terrible projects, at some point someone has to say enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CeruleanGamer Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 (edited) What the fuck?I am already afraid of the word "Sakura" in VN terms, now you want to add "Highschool" into that mix?

What the hell am I suppose to play now? Clearly only games with the word "Fate" at the beginning, unles it's Fate Skaura Highschool. Then we're screwed.

Then we're screwed.While I have played all Fate games and other Type-Moon games and even Kira Kira, NVL VNs are such a bother to me because I despise stupid walls of fucking text covering my precious vn character's faces, so I tend to avoid NVL games like the plague.

He did post a lengthy post defending the company on my sword of asumi review as well so I can only assume he has some kind of PR related function for them kingdomcome 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrael Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 Why do they keep giving you review keys? xDTo be fair, I didn't actually get a review key for Sword of Asumi, we just had a key for it lying around (from a bundle or something, idk) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valmore Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Why do they keep giving you review keys? xDSome press is better than no press at all? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ They say there's no such thing as bad PR. I don't completely subscribe to that but sometimes if something gets panned really hard it has the affect of people wanting to read it just to see how bad it really is. Heck, I may get Sakura Santa just for that purpose. I'll probably buy it from Mangagamer if I do, so I'd probably get a Steam key for it. But if I give away the Steam key, I can't collect the cards... DarkZedge 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats how Katawa Shoujo became popular, because some reddit people were spamming "OMG you get to date chicks who are blind and with no limbs!"

Tyrael Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 To be fair, I like Katawa Shoujo. And not just because you bang cripple girls.Of course. Katawa Shoujo is not a perfect game, but it is a labour of love for sure. The story is engaging, has an okay protagonist (depends on the route I guess), the art is adorable and the music... A+The best thing about KS for me personally were the H-scenes. They are very respectful towards the girls, which (in my experience) is a rarity for an eroge, even though it's an OELVN.As far as OELVN's go, it's probably still the golden standard, along with Dysfunctional Systems and the like.
