does it matter?

does it matter?

Do half the questions asked here matter? In the end, it's a game, so no question really "matters". However when writing, they must have thought of what the complement was while deciding for it to not get translated, so there is an answer. I'm interested to what it was, because when I read that for the first time, I assumed it would come back up later in the story, so when it didn't I was curious.

I have a feeling my question was missed by accident :P

What was the compliment Shizune signed the first time they go to the Shanghai? The one that Misha refuses to translate because it was too nice :)?

Super specific Shizune-related questions rarely get answered because 22 almost never answers anything here. I can't remember if there's an answer off the top of my head, can't even recall the line you're talking about.

So yeah, the compliment was about the massive and obvious erection Hisao was sporting.

no way, japanese have small dicks

But this is Hisao.

I've actually been curious about this for a long time, so I figured I'd go ahead and stick my neck out.
I've heard that Suriko had to continue Hanako's route after cpl_crud left the project. How exactly did that work out? Did you have an outline to work from, or is everything from the point you started at Suriko-original material? Also, did you edit or change anything that was already set in the story by the previous writer?

It's pretty much just Aura who answers questions here, but theres an interview with cpl_crud on youtube somewhere, I think he mentions it there.

I might be a bit slow on this, but I just noticed that there was a 1.1 version. And the question I am about to ask might sound a bit stupid again. Would there be any chance of any additions to Katawa Shoujo OST in, say, some future versions? I mean, if the musical devs who worked on this project are still working on some new music, or if you had a new dev for OSTs-

well, whatever, you got the point. Is there any chance that future versions will include any extra BGM by any chance? Maybe even slightest?
Or will they only feature new translations and maybe little typo fixes here and there? Could they feature any other thing other than translations and typo fixes?

[Silentcook]

Additions of whatever kind aside from translations are pretty much out of the question. However, if I remember correctly 1.1 featured an update to one of the platform engines, slight modifications to some backgrounds, and one remastered BGM using live sax, in addition to some text fixes.

So while it's unlikely to see much more, it's not entirely impossible for a few refinements to happen.

This probably was asked before, considering it was pointed out in a joke, but at Shizune's bad end the CGhad Shizune in a very odd proportion to the stairs she was sitting on. Was this due to an artist's simple mistake, or was it caused by something else?

No, sorry. At the moment, I'm the only musician left around here and I don't have any reason to supplement the KS soundtrack; for one, introducing a new music track into the game would require it to be written in. Someone would have to go into the game and program it in, and then go through the entire game script and figure out what to do with it. It's an incredible amount of effort for such a small addition to the overall experience. Second, I have no reason to remake the existing tracks, since I already did that during development. The only reason the new Red Velvet was put into the game was because we weren't happy with the quality of the saxophone sound we used in the original, and someone just happened to record a live version on their own and hand it to us on a platter. I might be interested in remixing or arranging some of the music from KS for a separate album sometime in the future, but currently I have no plans.

This was just pointed out in the fan fiction section:

This was a fun story, I agree. There's one problem, and it's one I only noticed when I was going through Lilly's route last night (and one I think I've perpetuated a couple times myself).

Yes, Miyagi is female (per "Promise of Time"), but that means she can't be the English teacher, because (per "Little Wing") the English teacher is male - although I suppose that's why the suspension was written into the story, the timing seems...off. I don't think it was ever specified what subject Miyagi teaches normally.

So, my questions are:

What does Miyagi teach?

What's the name of the English teacher?

Or is the gender reference in "Little Wing" wrong?
