discussion Anti-Social & Lurker - Hideout spot

[kurgan]

And yeah, I get really fucking defensive with any post that say (paraphrased) "You shouldn't enjoy that." Apologies if I crossed the line.
I also crossed the line in my youth when people took or added stuff to my plate. The board rules prevent me from giving details of my response back then.

No worries here XD I was just exposing my POV, not enforcing people to agree with it.

 

[kurgan]

Oh, sorry. This thread has so many replies that I don't read it all. Hahaha

This thread is like trying to read the Lord of the Rings in a single day!

The issue here is many games that give the choice to rename the MC then fucking show the MC face in almost every single frame, making hard, at least for me, to project myself there. For example Vinovella games. I'm not saying the MC should be faceless, but at least don't abuse of overexposure.

I hate games that force you to name the MC. Time and time again I had to edit a save because another character appeared and had the exact same name as me, and it made it confusing as hell.
If the game is in first person, I don't mind it that much if the MC's face isn't shown, but I do preffer third person. PoV porn never attracted me all that much.
Ideally, every game could have both options, but that would double the render time and give the devs a perfect excuse to milk people even more!

Kinda off-topic, but I consider myself "nerdy", and yet I've never read nor watched LotR... I did read Hobbit, but didn't like it, so I kinda didn't feel like reading more Tolkien.

whats the use, i cant speak @-Bonk- cause im being on a conspicuous ignore list

Yeah, my point is how people are hostile with game that don't meet their criteria. I've seen countless of female MC games that have a lot of people complaining in the replies.
Since you compared it to food, for me it's like going all the way to a vegan restaurant and telling them they sould serve meat because of what you like... (And I do like meat a fucking lot, but let people have different things!)

Yeah. I'm totally with you there.

I mean, to keep with my NTR example: There's an NTR tag. The game called (making it up) "None of my wife's kids are mine!". And some people complain that the game has NTR.

Like... WTF... man? I'm French. English is my second language.... and *I* know to avoid that game.

Again, totally on board with what you're saying.

I haven't been here all weekend...
So, if anyone could catch me up... That would be great.
Is @-Bonk- back to normal? What about @Evil Surgeon?
Is @Slumdum still a duck?
Is @algeo a lovable racoon again?

KUUUUUUUUUMAAAAAAAAAA

Yes, yes, no, yes, those are the answers you're looking for

I loved the Hobbit, but I was quite young when I read it, maybe 11 or so. Then I tried the LOTR but it was too much, I had to wait until my 14 yo to try it again. So do you read any other fantasy authors?

I usually don't get involved in this inter-member banter... but NO!

Having read MANY posts...

...what Slumdum considers what "buttering up" means... and what most of us do... is likely WILDLY different:

Hobbit and LoTR can be tough because they get built up so much that its hard to live up to the expectation.

Did the same with the Hobbit around the same age. Never tried LOTR but did smash the Game of Thrones books when the hype was at its peak.

Yeah, I can agree when the game suddenly shifts direction, but sometimes the clearly states what is planned and people are still mad about it...

I was in highschool, almost 18. Maybe that's why? I've heard people say that Hobbit, unlike Tolkien's other works, are a children' book. I remember didn't liking the narrator, but not much more.
To be honest, the only time I truly read books was that same period, because I had a crush on a bookworm girl.
Aside from that, I've only read some small book from a local author. But I don't have anything against it. I've liked some fantasy shows and whatnot.

Hello, everyone,
How are you doing at the beginning of the week?

Hello, everyone,
How are you doing at the beginning of the week?

Good. I'm enjoying the last of my vacations days of work. Not having to wake up early is sooo good.
That said, I'll sleep now that it's almost sunrise here.
Good night/morning for you all, folks!

What I also find funny is that a game could be titled 'I'm the only man in the world and all the women want me and no one else' and there'd be a post

'Is there any NTR? Because I avoid all games with NTR.'

Yup.

Unfortunately, some devs are assholes (or funny depending on who you ask):

On April 1st (shouldda been a sign), a standalone single release KINETIC game called My Wife Is A Hoe That Gets Used By Everybody [Moonbox] was released. Moonbox is a dev KNOWN for Gary Stu fall-on-my-dick-at-first-sight VN. There was also a distinct lack of NTR tag.

Spoiler: Spoiler just in case you want to find out for yourself

The wife... was a hoe... as in a garden hoe... that was used... FOR GARDENING... by everyone.
Then, in giga-chad manner, the MC cucked all the bad guys, reversed the spell, got every female pregnant, was elevated to godhood or some shit... the end.
Moonbox didn't lie... but I actually didn't like it because it'll open the doors to the reverse. Just fucking make products as advertised. That's all I ask.

Hello, everyone,
How are you doing at the beginning of the week?

 

[Silrog22]

Ah, must be nice to just do stuff like that. After a certain age my body told me in no uncertain terms to fuck off when attempting a schedule reset

I didn't make it to the planned 31-hour mark.

Body done and it was a struggle to do anything.

But, slept for roughly 8 hours, which is rare for me to usually do. Hopefully, it resets my sleep schedule how I wanted.
