I've talked to eccma before, he seems like a pretty cool dude kinda... he just likes to troll for some reason, a bit too much, and he thinks it's edgy and cool. He calls his own game a "shit game". As far as his political views, he's VERY pro Taiwanese. He's also prejudice against anything Chinese (if it wasn't already obvious).
He also has this hate boner for the west. He thinks countries like the US are handholding China.
Yeah, but it's just the government. I don't get why he hates us if we are against China. I always wanted China to free Tibet and Taiwan, even from my childhood. Yet he hates me for being an Asian-American? Dude might be racist against himself, then. /jk
(Then again, he's schizo, so...)
hen I first encountered Snowflake, I found it funny that the merchant dude managed to trick him with the candy pills; first I tried to help him by saying that the pills are fake and everything, when he kicked me out and went back into the store, to my surprise of what happened to him, I wanted to know more.
After searching the wiki, they literally said "This page may not be created, Do NOT create alternatives" when searching using his name; I found it weird, like why? Then when reading the forums, and here, pointing out that Snowflake was a response to some agenda-pushing people then I went "Oooohhhhh, so that's why he looks like that". So in summary, if nobody else pointed out what it was, I would just assume that it was a silly dude that got tricked (that's how much I care about agenda-pushing people in videogames: none at all).
Dude, he had the trans character suicide. SUICIDE for... not becoming fully female? Yeah, that's beyond trolling. That's just hate. Plus, he lied about the character. He lied about someone who annoyed him. If he was trolling, he could've been honest about why he made the character. And it ruined the tone. It's a dark fantasy yet... he wanted to put his modern politics for this? The guy hates trans so much that he wrote an entire character just to say he hates trans, and then lied about why. Sounds like he's just a coward about his bigotry.
Besides... trolling WHO? Where are all the trans players? And how would he see them? If he's just thinking "hee hee, trans saw my OC, I can see it in my head!" then that doesn't sound like trolling. It sounds like he's a chaser who is obsessed with trans. If he wanted to anger people... where are they? If he wants to annoy people from 4chan... I just cringed. He wanted to ruin his game's tone... because he just wanted to annoy, cringe, and anger people? Yeah, I don't think that's real. I think he's lying. Not trolling. Lying. And pushing his political hate. It's ridiculous and cringe.
I have this theory that, Lona being flat is also part of the punishment, that's why so many people wants the big booba mod.
I use the big booba mod because I just like boobs and didn't want the character to look like a child because it reminds me too much about what was done to me as a child. But then when I saved Cocona, all those guys say "flat chest" too many times, and I'm starting to think that he hates flat chests, rather than a fetish.
I like the gameplay of this game. But I think I hate the writing and art over time, because I see things over and over that he ruined the game with his hate, schizo, and modern politics. If he wants to ruin his game just for his schizo... then he's no good game maker.
For one, he says that sex is a punisment for the palyer? Yeah, he didn't do a good job making it seem like one, then. For one, many times it doesn't seem like you had much chance to avoid it. Other times it IS good, either for the player to watch or for the protagonist at times. And there are going to be people who WANT to play this because the sex being a "punishment" makes it hot for them. I'm starting to think this guy is either dumb or too schizo.
Of course, that's just my feelings for playing this game. I don't dislike you guys for liking this game, of course. It's just views as I play. You guys can like what I dislike about this game no matter what, and I'll respect it and not judge you for it, since TBH? My criticism of this game is because I like the things I like about it and I want to see it be better.
Like, I was IMMERSED in the story and world of this game at first. Like, I think a good world and story can truly make a porn game so much better. Seeing modern politicals and 4chan shit forced in despite not fitting the tone just took me right out of the immersen, jarringly at that.
When I played Corruptions of Champions, the fact that so many of the characters are just trying to find what moments of happines they can in this dying world they're fighting to survive in made me feel for them, and that made the sex, the scenes, the setting, and the story better for me.
This game could be like that, let our feelings for what the characters go through enhance how much we like the characters, story, and setting.
But no, he just wants to punish and troll people and force his politicis, hate, and schizo hallucinations into it, making it worse than it could be. And maybe I'm just someone who is thinking to much about this, but I just see wasted potential for what could be a truly amazing porn game if the dev weren't such a bell end ruining his game on purpose for excuses and not using his own game vision at times. Yeah, he's making the game he wants, and I can respect that... but if he needs to lie and make up excuses for doing things in the game, is he really writing what he truly wants? I mean, if he's telling the truth and he just included Snowflake to make someone mad (who he'll never see and likely doesn't exist), then... isn't he just making the game for the person he lies told him to make Snowflake, rather than the game he truly wants?
