Re: Ask!

Suriko is the only one who doesn't think that epilogues suck ass. What do you think is wrong about epilogues? An epilogue, especially one after the credits roll, is just an arbitrary way to lengthen a story, or I guess a way to ensure folks see all the credits. If you wanted to end your story somew...

Re: Ask!

Conversely from my previous question: have there been any outside criticisms of the game that have gotten under the skins of any of the devs? If so, what were they? Not really. A lot of the criticism leveled at the game is criticism we ourselves leveled at the game--Hisao is kind of a fucking idiot...

Re: Ask!

I know this has probably been asked but im tired to read through all the questions i just came off playing the game for about 8 hours. Have any of the members of four leaf studio's started a new project yet and why are you opposed to fan's possibly making a sequel if FLS dont plan too As Aura point...

Were there times like that? What kept you going?
1. Yes.
2. Not wanting to let everyone else down.

The fans appear like a seething mass of people telling you that you are pretty great, asking why there is no sequel, and occasionally drawing porn.

Re: Ask!

She's not. Also here's a reminder of the third rule of this thread. 3) Even if you think you know the answer to some question, don't answer it . Misinformation has a tendency to stick around, and the point of this thread is to clarify things, not muddle them up further. I will enforce this one pret...

Re: Ask!

To the Hivemind. You mentioned in an interview that you were sort of forced to write a anal H-scene, do to most of the scenes being vanilla. And while it was a fun read I wonder: why did you not try and write some other type of H-scene, like oral, if you weren't quite comfortable with the whole ana...

Re: Ask!

Why did you decide that Hisao would die in the Act 1 bad endings? And why the way he did? In the extremely remote chance that Katawa Seiyū is ever finished, would you borrow their audio files and update KS with a option to turn on voice acting? Killing the main character is a time-honored tradition...

Re: Emi ending (spoilers for days)

If you're still around and you have the time... anything in particular that interested you, Hivemind? I'm sure being the author of something so complicated to write comes with its own expectations and hopes for audience reactions, and I'm sure they don't always match up perfectly. Mostly it's just ...

Re: Emi ending (spoilers for days)

Why do people like Emi so much? I just finished her ending and it made me angry and it was very nonsensical. You begin running with her blah blah blah. She eventually starts pushing you away. Hisao stays with her through it all. You get invited to her house and she kicks you out for one of two reas...

Re: Ask!

(not counting whimsical changes to character sexuality, which never showed up in the finished product). Could you elaborate on this? You know when you've been writing a story, and you think to yourself "yeah, I think it makes sense that this character would be bisexual," but then you also...
