what a fucking chode, he really has let success get into his head. Isn't he using copy written material for profit by making a game with Koikatu? Last i checked the publishers of Koikatu where none to keen on people using their IP for profit?
Seems he's planning on taking action against F95
And can he even legally own a copyright on something that was created using IP (that was effectively) stolen? Or maybe that get's into the whole "transformative in nature" argument. In which case it's only legal or illegal if you have lawyers you can pay that say it is.
I could be wrong about the Koikatu and if so i'll eat my humble pie.

Nah, you're not wrong and i'd love to see him stand in front of a judge and try to defend his game about a sexual predator molesting underaged teens using proprietary assets without a license against a link sharing website. His options are sex scenes with Chinami/Tsukasa or DRM if he wants it off the site, nothing legal will go anywhere.

The thing is, there's already some content with Chinami. You can have a conversation with Chika and Chinami while Chinami is taking a bath. While it wasn't full on sexual content, it was a naked loli, and for most games on this site, that's more than enough to get it kicked. There are two ways I believe it's still up. The first was, like you said, Sel lives in the mods' heads as much as they live in his, and in this pointless back-and-forth they do, they're willing to bend some rules just to piss off Sel. The next one is much more plausible, and that's that the game is a monetary benefit to F95. The ad setup here is probably per view, and this game gets a lot of traction, so it's lining their pockets enough for them to gleefully ignore the rule.
And since it seems like he's actually going to try and take legal action against the site, I wonder what his legal standpoint will be. I don't believe he can claim damage to his profits without getting Illusion involved. They won't go out of their way to file a complaint about an overseas porn game, but if he starts a cort case about his profits from the game, won't that forcefully get them involved? I know next to nothing about legal proceedings though, so I'm probably wrong.

Man, I thought Sel's getting off this site is a net positive for his mental health, but it seems like only interacting with yes men on his discord has gone to his head. I understand his position, but it's sad to see him this petty.

To break it down, loli is more of a body type than anything that denotes age. Which is why it can cause a lot of problems when people are deciding what to keep and what to get rid of on this site. I believe in order for a loli to be considered inappropriate on this site, they have to fail 3 things. Age, appearance, and personality. If it looks like a kid, acts like a kid, and is age-confirmed as a kid, then it's problematic. But if it passes one of those, then people will fight to keep the game up.

The man put a Nintendo Switch in his game, any legal grounds he has are gone immediately.
I've seen some shit man. My classmate drew a gameboy once in a "what do you want for christmas" assignment and 5 japanese men in suits kicked the door to the class down 0.2 seconds later, broke his legs and dragged him off.
I haven't seen him since. I also don't think he got that gameboy in the end.

I played for around 200 days and Rin has disapeared for more than 100 days now. No main story event progress, just dead lock with no event for weeks. I visit the coffee shop every time I have the chance but only Haruka there. Is this a bug or am I missing smt here

Her return checks a Affection threshold and event prerequisites, spend some time other main events and the other girls, and she'll show back up.
The fact he tries to claim assets that he robbed says all that needs to be known tbh. Regardless, he's profited massively from the game being on here. Without this site the game would be fraction of the size that it is now seeing as the majority of people never would have even knew it existed. But I guess it's easy for people to forget what made them a success in the first place
Not just a Nintendo switch, referenced a contemporary release (Splatoon 3), he's also used pokemon assets in the past. I'm sure noalegal@noa.nintendo.com would absolutely love that association.
There's probably other trademarks used that I'm not as familiar with too.

He has a Coca-Cola scene involving Maya as well. No doubt they wouldn't be too keen on their product being in a game about a sexual predator and teenage girls.
Yes but that's because every game is made better with the fresh taste of a perfectly chilled Coca Cola™
Maybe he can try the all new "Coca Cola™ justice", made from the tears of copyright infringers, for that salty zest! Remember, the key ingredient is crippling financial debt!

Honestly, he's treading such a blatant fine line himself when it comes to copyright and piracy, but I guess all the money has made him blind to his own hypocrisy. There are a myriad of things you can list from his game that are copyright infringement.
Hell, a lot of the Halloween costumes you see--the Genshin Impact ones specifically--are ripped straight from those games and imported into Koikatsu through blender as mods.
Sad thing is almost no one here wants the guy to fail. I like the game a lot; he's a good VN dev, but I have to separate the artist from the work at this point (barring his constant 4th wall breaking events to air out his personal grievances). Pirates are going to pirate, fighting it is a waste of time and I say this as someone that actually supports him financially.

agreed. it would be best for everybody involved if he just... fucking gets over it. it's amazing seeing people moralize over the piracy of a technically free game that deals with the grooming and sexual exploitation of teenage girls. like be forreal.
the whole situation is ridiculous, and i'm really hoping it just goes away. i'll be awfully annoyed to see this game's story be cut short or never finished because of it

Don't forget the Raid shadow legends Molly scenes, there is even 2 iirc. Raid shadow legends will pay him with a swat raid if they find out.
