I'm curious about all the girls too. Reading through Emi's, Shizunes and Lily's path I begun to wonder whether authors tried to put themselves in their place or did they consult someone. Some of Hisao's observations gave me a suggestion it might be the latter.

Most of the details on Hisao's condition came from a combination of wikipedia and talking to Silentcook. Mostly talking to Silentcook, because he was our medical expert. Anything else I made up.

I absolutely love these now, however the only one I have played has be Katawa Shoujo (even at that, I have only finished Emi's story). From what I have gathered, most other "games" in this genre lead more toward sex as the goal instead of the experience and learning about the characters. Will the characters be at the forefront of your next adventure? Also, will the Artist be here as well? I do enjoy the art in the game quite a bit.

I think it is all VNs in the works now among the various other developers. As for me, my next project isn't even a game of any sort. I posted about it over here.

I love the idea of Yamaku Academy and would love to continue exploring it, even if it was through the views of a Teacher or Female (Hopefully, neither of which will have sex, well... if need be, but not for a Teacher route. I hate Pedophilia as it is >.<).

No, there will never be another Katawa Shoujo.

In the story it doesn't seem that there are this kind of problems in the Nakai family, Hisao remained alone at home sometimes because of his parents' business but that's it as far as I know.
I can understand that Hisao never called them, he wanted to start a new life forgetting the past, but why they never called him? Or they did and it isn't portraied in the game? Or simply you didn't think about it while writing the story (it happens :))?

udscbt wrote:On a less serious note (maybe):
There really is a feminist conspirancy? I don't think Kenji is all that wrong. I mean... two out of two class representatives that Hisao knows are girls, all the members of the school council are girls, the best and second best runners in the school are girls, the best artist of the school is a girl, no boy (other than Hisao) ever do something noteworthy. And as Kenji himself noticed: "There are a lot of cute girls here. A strangely disproportionate amount.[...]the number of girls in this school is slightly but significantly higher than the amount of boys? It's like 60-40.". There's obviously something going on here!

CaptPonyholder wrote:Wait, so each member is doing their own thing now? There won't be another "Katawa Shoujo" type VN where everyone in 4LS will work on? That makes me incredibly sad.

Also, is it possible that there would be a future return to Yamaku Academy with some new character ideas by RAITA? I love the idea of Yamaku Academy and would love to continue exploring it, even if it was through the views of a Teacher or Female (Hopefully, neither of which will have sex, well... if need be, but not for a Teacher route.
