Re: Katawa Shoujo (and other VNs) kicked out of /v/

Meh, going to 4chan makes me mainly crave a shower. I might check out /vg/ or whatever it is. Maybe. Psh. Weakling. In all seriousness though, there are some great communities on 4chan. *insert obligatory /tg/ plug* 4chan isn't for everyone, but if you can phase out the trolls and porn, it's one of...

Re: Katawa Shoujo (and other VNs) kicked out of /v/

Either way, this board and reddit are much more appropriate for this game's atmosphere. As another has pointed out, this is very true. I've lurked quite a bit in the past, but never posted until now. No particular reason for it, the mood just struck me today. Anyway, I prefer these forums to /v/. *...

People! Answer this questionnaire so that the professor studying this can finish gathering personal reactions! Only about 10 more people are needed.

If you really want to thank 4LS, let's help the academic study on it!

Re: Katawa Shoujo (and other VNs) kicked out of /v/

traitor's post was right on the money. Majority of the material being posted in KS threads (for some time now) has had little to do with the actual VN itself, content varies from material that belongs on /adv/ or /soc/ to the same 3-4 people re-posting stories each night with the odd couple here an...

Hey, let's be civil. This is only fan fiction. Nothing more. If they charged money, then we can bash them with prejudice.

Re: Katawa Shoujo (and other VNs) kicked out of /v/

In my opinion, a VN is a sort of game, but not one exactly. Wasnt one of the Fate/ series released on PS2 even? A lot of VNs are released on portables and consoles in Japan. By the broadest definition of videogames, visual novels qualify barely . Clicking is a form of interactivity. /v/ banning it ...

Re: Katawa Shoujo "Plus"

It's called "Katawa Shoujo Plus", it's not like they're trying to hide it. I don't know whether they got the permission of the original KS devs to do it, though. If they did, then I guess it's cool. If not, then yeah, it's kind of low. Only the setting the same, and they're not ripping off the art,...

Re: Katawa Shoujo (and other VNs) kicked out of /v/

Don't get your hopes up, KS will not have a place on 4chan anymore. Not after today. Also exactly we did you need to spam the hell out of /jp/? Moot clearly favors Katawa Shoujo. There are banners of it after all. He is making a new board for it so that the /jp/ers would stop complaining. It's way ...

I agree though it's going to get a bit troublesome since KS just got kicked out of /jp/...

Well, if all else fails, there's /b/ until the new board is made.

Katawa Shoujo (and other VNs) kicked out of /v/

Well, there goes Katawa Shoujo's place in the /v/GA awards. In all seriousness though, the panic in the /jp/ board has forced moot to create a new board. I don't think it'll be exclusively for KS, but it was clearly the catalyst. Congratulations, devs. your work is quality and popular enough to refo...

Re: Online Japanese KS reception

Not sure if this has been proposed yet and might be heretical to say on this forum: did they consider changing the name for Japanese release? In all honesty, It wouldn't change much. This VN would then be known as the visual novel formerly known as Katawa Shoujo. It's far too famous the change the ...

Re: Is this legit?

There are more people who plan spin-offs, most wil end up unfinished. Best spin-off project i've seen so far is Mentaru Shoujo. It has some great character art already and they have a forum. At this rate, the Westerners will all be known for their cripple fetishes and the Japanese will be reluctant...

Re: Am I the only one that enjoyed Shizune's route?

Be that as it may, there were places where at least 9 "clicks" of text were used when 3 would have been just as good, if not better. If this were a print novel, I'd suspect them of padding the word count to please publishers. Conventional publishers prefer fat books because they control the distrib...
