Minor changes for future updates

Less Rin and more Ami is criminal

 

[Pedro4545454]

hex editing to the rescue if something like that were to happen

I'm stupid I don't know how to do this

Man, you folks be messing with my head changing avatars all the time, don't realise who i'm reading for a while every time.

I only changed it once, I had to change mine since Christmas was over

I just kind of felt like going green for a bit:

New Year, New Avatar.

Maybe I'll go back to my original one day, albeit, that one probably freaked people out a bit.

Less Rin and more Ami is criminal

I mean, Ami is the main heroine after all:

Well, it's not perfect cause it won't touch the images or any example of only part of his name, but you can use the URM to replace names as well as entire words or phrases, i use it to replace the word coffee in any game that uses the word waaaaaaaaaay too often, like Crimson High, fuck that game goes on and on about fucking coffee sometimes.

Oh i should mention, i replace the word coffee with beer, it leads to some really funny dialogue, underage girl walks in, "can i get you a beer?" "Fuck, just woke up, need beer." "Just gonna go to that cafe and get a nice hot cup of beer."

I used Tea at first, but beer ended up just too funny.

Your Nodoka would be an alcoholic, lmao.

She'd be getting alcohol poisoning while facing Makoto during the Dormwars:

Actually, this reminded me of a song that reminds me of Nodoka: 'Caffeine' by Jeff Williams and Casey Lee Williams. I guess she'd be Coco Adel in RWBY. Futaba can be Velvet. Fits well enough. Bunny Girl Futaba.

meanwhile I always name characters with the stupidest shit possible to break every piece of immersion if the choice is given ; my chaotic energy needs to go somewhere!

My second run of the game I use casual cursing for most lust names, so I can have Ayane saying things like "Ooooh you're horny aren't you you little fuck?" seductively.

A big characters cards update. 147 cards with different variations. Fixes are in the archive. Still not a complete collection.

On the weekends you can change lustnames on the laptop.

I know, I'm asking to get around that but thanks anyways

You can probably use URM:

If you want to change lust names as well. Just type in "master" in the variables search bar, then change the master name.

For example:

That 27 hour lecture on different types of beer bean must've been a riot.

So the last reset is probably my favorite handful of events, certainly my favorite of the weirder side of this game, and because of that I can't stop thinking about paper city. What actually is up with that one?

Having just done puzzle 6 with the help of a guide I gotta ask, how tf does anyone do these puzzles without one??

 

[BlackDays]

I guess that the person Makoto mentiones in her SMS (one of us is dead) seems to be refering to Maya or Ami, if we look at Kaori's and Nao-chan's crime scene.
Besides, i got a feeling that the shampoo bottle from "Times New Roman", was show elsewhere before.
The imported model/texture seemed familiar.

Personally, until explained, I think it's likely that most of the Reset stuff is simply in Sensei's head.

I think that's a totally rational reading of things, but with all due respect, I find it boring as hell lol. It's the same camp as "it was all a dream/coma/dying hallucination" in my opinion. I think the whole point is to get you to think these delusions are just in contained in Akira's head and then have that ripped out from under you like with Sana and Yasu's interactions. Sana's delusions aren't that different from Akira's from what we've seen, other than the fact she stays herself during them, and Yasu more or less confirms they're on some level real since she knows about her brother following her around. Not to mention sekai has shown herself to be able to interact with the material world at least once, without sensei there to witness it.

The game is rather upfront about the importance of perception and the fact nothing is real. I think these are on some level delusions, but Kumon-mi is such a fucked up place that reality is a little runny at the seams and the individual perceptions of these mentally unwell people are colliding with some supernatural force.

I'm an all or nothing kind of person. Going through and saying "this is supernatural, but this other thing is just a delusion or a hallucination" is a little silly to me.

So I think your readings of what these events represent for Akira's psychology are actually salient and I think you might be onto something there, I just disagree it's entirely in his head and that the weirdness of his blackouts isn't real at all.

Keep in mind, I did say "most of". You've jumped to incorrect conclusions. There's definitely something supernatural going on, but even what Sensei has perceived it to be, likely isn't how things actually are. His thoughts, feelings, and visuals are unreliable at best.

The gods as we've come to know them, may have even been debunked, considering Maya claims Sensei has had hallucinations since they met:

I do think this is probably the most rational way to understand this game: "the individual perceptions of these mentally unwell people are colliding with some supernatural force."

Everyone that has seen or heard things are traumatized and unwell individuals. Sana, Sara, Yasu, Sensei, Ami, etc all have, well, mental issues that probably even run in the family. The god that Yasu sees, probably looks different than the one Sensei thinks of. They've all likely simply rationalized the supernatural stuff they've actually experienced.

The likes of The Shapeshifter, "Sekai", and the Resets themselves, are most likely "real". The USERS seem "real" as well. I don't think Barbara was "real" though. Sorry Barb.
