Is there a source for Suriko's avatar, I was hoping for a version of it with higher resolutions.
Can you correct my English if it's bad?

Did it happen that a writer was forced to make drastic changes of some sort to their path? I don't mean if a writer was convinced by the others to make changes; I mean a scenario where the writer was outright forced to make a change even though he/she wanted it to be different.

No. Nobody had that kind of authority over others. Of course, there line between "forcing" and 3-4 people very vocally piling on someone is pretty thin.

Sorry if this question has been asked before.

You guys seem really diverse when it comes to your cultural backgrounds. Suriko from Australia, Aura is Finnish, and someone posted TheHiveMind living in Chicago a few pages ago I think (looks like a start of a mini United Nations XD).

Due to this, were their ever any communication problems or difficulties in meeting each other in person?

I don't think so. Communication across the globe was difficult mostly due to the timezones, and the long geographic distances have made meeting in person an extremely rare occasion for most of us, but I don't think the cultural differences ever were a factor in that.

Is there a place where I can find links to the different blogs and the likes of the 4LS members?

The definition of 'convinced' can get pretty fluid.

But yeah nobody was forced to change anything. Did we yell insults at each other sometimes until an agreement was made to at least give an idea a second look? WELL SURE, probably a couple of times.

Question for the Devs

Well, to turn the question around: why should we make KS2? I can't think of a single good reason to return to KS. It's just not very interesting because I feel we did enough with this setting already. I think it's better to do something fresh that actually really fires me up.

This question may be a little bit tricky. Why is Emi's behavior so different between the good and the bad ending (at the track just after Misha asks you about your problems with her ) although the fact that you decide trust Misha or not shouldn't have a direct effect on her behavior?

I made Emi's route blind and I got the bad ending at first. I got a little bit angry when I repeated this part to get the good ending and saw great differences that I didn't get at all. :?

Also sorry for my bad expression English isn't my mother tongue. :oops:

Follow this chart for success.

Also, GET BACK IN THE SWORD! <3

A good writer knows his limits. A great writer finds ways around them.

Were there times during the development of KS where you could just sit back and look at the (slow) progress, and say "Wow" because you could suddenly see it coming together?
Totally. Playing the game in engine always gave me good vibes. Because most of the development was staring at text processor screens, staring at code files, staring at forums or staring at messaging clients, the experience of the actual game in all of its vibrance was really great in contrast.
