Sorry, but I find that reasoning dumb. If someone asks you for it and you know it, then you should give it to them. Going by your logic, then nobody should ever use a walkthrough because that tells them what they need to do and they wouldn't "experience the game as intended.". And as I said, I skip the happy events because I don't like them so I'm already not "experience the game as intended.".
No, absolutely not, I am not going to play the game for people, which is what I would essentially be doing if I gave answers away. I don't use walkthroughs, by the way, I suffer through any point I get stuck at if I must, but I do not resort to outside help unless I don't have time to sit down and figure things out.
That has happened only one time so far and it was on a previous play through that has since been aborted in favor of starting over because I met a failure condition I placed on myself by missing a scene for choosing the option I would instead of what player Sensei would.
Sorry, but I find that reasoning dumb. Going by your logic, parents should be doing all their kids' homework if the kids ask them to.
His logic doesn't equate to "nobody should ever use a walkthrough". He's just not going to write the walkthrough for you.
Not at all, while it is my personal preference not to use anything the game itself doesn't give me if I have the choice not to available, I'm not against the use of such things by other people. What I basically said was 'the information is available in the game, go look for it' in a nicer way. I won't give answers away because it takes away from the experience of actually playing the game for oneself.
Terminal should be 23.
I agree with Alex and hcguy, but I am curious about something, so next time you are asked for a bunch of stuff (which would be in this scene, don't pick "Survive!", because that will lead into a Happy Scene, which you do not wish to see.
Pick "Grow!", and then ask for the answer, and you shall receive.
Also skipping Happy Scenes is akin to "reading" a book, just to get to a single chapter and ignoring the rest.
Much more fun, when you have the context, than just the action.
Not to mention the 'happy' scenes are half of the main story. They are where the horror tag is earned and serve as the underlying story of what is going on whereas what we see in the main events is what is going on on the surface. With Denpa, you don't just look at the surface, that only gets you half the story and can lead to complete confusion as to what is going on when something completely out of character happens because 'familiar characters are acting in unfamiliar ways' at some point.
