to increase your confusion in Italy we have two semesters, a period in which there are university courses and at the end of each there is an exam session ... but they last 5 months: September-January and February-June (maximum beginning July)
At least that makes some sense, there are at least only two of those. We had the same in mine and we used both semester or "quatrimester", if such a word exist in English, because in the end they were four months long. If you're going to have three of them just call them trimester.
Wait.. Is that not the norm everywhere?
Damn, and here I was judging Sage for not saying she's graduating next semester, thinking that way she could've avoided confusion. Turns out she simply would've confused people from different countries instead.
Probably a big part of it, yeah. We don't have frats in my country either and as much fun as getting wasted and doing stupid shit in college is on its own, I've always wondered what it would be like doing it in a more.. uhh.. organized fashion with a bunch of like-minded bros. DPC has really hit the jackpot with this one as far as I'm concerned.
When done right the college setting is great. But it is overused by so many developers in a lazy half-assed way.
Yeah, frats are not as prevalent or as interesting as DPC makes them. But then it would be boring if it was too true to life.Probably a big part of it, yeah.

Also, I'm rewatching Beta House tonight, thanks for reminding me!
Problem with that is that most assets used for world building are generally American style, such as buildings, cityscapes, apartments, kitchens, cars, etc. There's a few assets that are British, European, and Asian, but not much. Pretty much everything seen in this game wouldn't work if DPC tried to set the game in Sweden.
Next month, the DPC said that in the first fortnight, that is, until the 15th or earlier, we will probably have the update in Hands.
I understand that the assets are more American, doesn't mean the developer can't take those assets and use them for their own "more European" world. Instead we often get weird hybrids that make little sense to all involved. Obviously BADIK is an exception to all of the other games out there.
For the most part, it is difficult to do that. Building design in Britain, the US, and in each European country are all very distinctive fom each other, especially when it comes to housing. The houses of the HOTs, DIKs, and Jocks, for example, are not a style of building you'd ever see in the UK, Sweden, France, Russia, etc. They're purely American style houses. Same with city buildings and roads signs, so it makes it difficult to create a game set in countries outside the US.
Yeah, but I don't feel the architecture is that important overall. I guess my suspension of disbelief would be fine with the disparity. Though I understand some people would have an issue with it.
I think Bacchus mentioned the other day that he lives in the UK which means better brace yourself for a snappy answer.Really not that different given the States got the designs/ideas mostly from European style
No, I'm not confusing the 2 names.You're confusing "semester" which means "half of a (school) year" with "trimester" which means "a third of a (school) year (or even pregnancy, for example)". Those are two completely different ways of dividing a calendar/school year, while the word "term" is a general, well, term
So as mentioned above, while a semester can be 6 months or ~4/whatever depending on what you mean, there cannot be 3 semesters in a single year - that would make them trimesters.
Thank you! I thought I was the only one who wanted more Euro-centric games. It seldom feels legit when a non-U.S. dev makes a game set in the U.S. Even putting aside the usual "Engrish" problems, they are easy to spot. It's just difficult to write convincingly about a different culture. I'm sure an American AVN dev would butcher any attempt to set a game in Latvia for example.
It's already arriving friend before the 15th of the next month probably will have already launched, just wait a little more
Nope, UK, and I've been to the US 5 times and have also visited 8 European countries several times. Even so, all you'd have to do is a quick Google search or even Street View of the cities, towns, and villages in European countries to see how suburban building design varies quite a bit between each of them.Really not that different given the States got the designs/ideas mostly from European style
As for Daz...there are plenty of assets available if one wishes to look and purchase them (plenty of sites around...not just limited to Daz). Besides, little bit of creative camera angles...dab of photoshop...anything is possible. Interior design is incredibly even more similar (mainstream construction).
I don't believe that would be proper etiquette, my good man.I think Bacchus mentioned the other day that he lives in the UK which means better brace yourself for a snappy answer.
*sips tea and nibbles on a crumpet*Thanks bro, i love this game. still waiting since last updated.in the middle of next month
