MY BROTHER IN CHRIST YOU'RE MAKING A VISUAL NOVEL

NOVEL

IF YOU WANT TO NARRATE LITERALLY EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS WRITE A FUCKING BOOK

You don't need to fucking write: Nova *hops on le ship deck* WHEN SHES DOING IT IN THE RENDER WHY DO YOU KEEP DOING THIS

You're being overdramatic, but I actually agree. Its very minor, but these pointless descriptions have been bothering me since OIAL, I can't think of a single time the image was ambiguous enough to justify one of those.

My guess is Caribdis writes first, then renders and uses them to "remember" what they had in mind (or its some accessibility thing).

I believe he uses descriptions instead of animations hence the descriptors.

Pretty much this I believe. He makes sure the script for the update is watertight before he even posts the first progress bar update. Only thing he changes are typos and grammatical errors later on, if any.

Without the indicator you wouldn't know if she hopped on the rail or she was already sitting there unless another render is shown of her doing the action.

Not to mention it's just one line. It's not overly and needlessly verbose like some descriptors in some VNs. It's quick and to the point, so why have a tirade about it?

Also, those types of lines make the reader imagine the scene play out in there head.

Random appreciation image while waiting for the update Day 9 -- Week 2: Alexandra

Does anyone have any information on whether the new update will have more scenes of Calypso since I can't recall the last time we had one

We don't have any hard confirmation on the lewd scene lineup. But we have some pretty solid inferences. I believe the consensus is that Dalia and Annie are for sure getting scenes; and Nancy and Calypso are likely getting scenes. Alex is a possibility but lower in percentage due to her getting a sex scene the the episode prior to our latest release.

I won't insult your intelligence by explaining the problem here.

Believe it or not, there are actually quite a few blind people who read visual novels. Some are "only" legally blind, but they also benefit from this kind of thing.

If you are blind then having a visual novel narrated to you would simply be a terrible experience. You cannot take a piece of media that is designed to be experienced through both visuals and text, remove the visuals and have more text describe what was just removed.

All that will leave you with is a worse version of a traditional purely text novel. It is silly to design visual novels with possibility in mind.

If you are visually impaired to a lesser extent and you can still see the images, then you won't need them describing to you in text.

Yeah, no one would do that for films for example, everyone knows blind people just have to forget about experience films at all because it's not the optimal expirience.

Wait... what? Oh... This actually exists and is even an option in some theatres, streaming and home video.



Maybe that's not the best option and sometimes the result is ok but other times is terrible, but it's not your choice, and despite the efforts of people like you to make it sound just plainly stupid, you can see there are people out there that didn't throw the towel to try making things available to as many people as possible.

And I assume your head would just blow up when you discover art museums for blind people, rappers that sign their lyrics (or even some music concerts where there are people signing) or magicians for blind people. But they do exist.

Luna could use some "catching up" but I doubt we'll get two updates back to back with any of the LI.

I know but it's fun the dream, shit if it happened I'd probably have a coronary before I could enjoy it

I'm too lazy to explain my comment further but yeah you nailed it, thank you. There is also people who can see and consume all these stories over here because for many of them, it's not just about graphics. Based on my experience, reading without rushing is a important part of the immersion and it can certainly give more pleasure through the experience.

 

[HeraldOfEras]

Think I've found a very minor plothole (the first that I've noticed on replay). Sorry if this has come up before.

it would make more sense for Penelope to bathe two 5-6 year-olds than two 9 year-olds at 12.

I mean, Penny looks larger compared to the two (early puberty in action I suppose), so even with how close their ages are she's still probably lording over them with her size.

Also, Orion's dialogue seems to indicate that he last saw Nan naked in the bath when he was 5 years old, not that he last saw the Carters at that time.
