Guys, I am getting the shakes, what is the ETA?
hopefully one week more of waiting.Guys, I am getting the shakes, what is the ETA?
Dude is shitting on the dev because his imaginary girlfriend got hurt on a super violent game. Its directly hurting the game i like. Are you fucking blind or are you upset because you self insert too?People like you are the worst kind of community member. Why do you care if people self-insert? That is their preference. It doesn't hurt you.
Self-insertion is key and is always guaranteed because of how a visual novel game is structured. Even if it is kinetic, because it needs the involvement of a third party to enable the actions of the main character, as this game has "choices" that are enabled by your action. It's way different from a book that's independent of anything you do.Dude is shitting on the dev because his imaginary girlfriend got hurt on a super violent game.

While I do find the act of "self insertion" incredibly sad, I won't ever bring it up unless someone tries to use it enforce their own will on how something should be.
I think you and I both know there's a world of difference between making choices to lead the story in a certain direction and identifying yourself as the mc.Self-insertion is key and is always guaranteed because of how a visual novel game is structured.

It doesn't mean an ego trip either, as if you have choices to make, you will rationalize the best choice or what you want to see, and that's inserting yourself.
That, I agree. I also don't enjoy senseless power tripping and a main character that is a Super Gary Stu or Super Mary Sue elevated to infinity. I do have to say that using Gary Stu's or Mary Sue's as archetypes for main characters in amateur visual novels is great, as 99% of the developers and/or writers don't have any experience writing, and frankly, they suck ass. But... chill out with the character.I think you and I both know there's a world of difference between making choices to lead the story in a certain direction and identifying yourself as the mc.
If WW timeline from a couple of weeks is still holding any day now. His releases are usually in the middle of the week and the week before release he usually puts out a little teaser image just like what happened last week so unless things are radically different this time we are looking at the next couple of days.Whats the ETA on the update?
The problem isn't people who self-insert, it's the ones who carry that self-insert too far and stop seperating fiction from reality - they bitch about things that happened "to them", or the absolute worst that happens on these forums of people bitching about some fictional woman having sex in a game with other fictional characters that aren't "them".People like you are the worst kind of community member.

I tend to call this phenomenon mirepresentation, but the sad reality is that some people act so fucking entitled that there is no reasonable approach that will work on them.The problem isn't people who self-insert, it's the ones who carry that self-insert too far and stop seperating fiction from reality - they bitch about things that happened "to them", or the absolute worst that happens on these forums of people bitching about some fictional woman having sex in a game with other fictional characters that aren't "them".
It depends on the moderator, the review, and what you say in the report... As with 99% of all reports, for better or worse.It's also unreasonable to report someone for misrepresentation. Not only it can be weaponized, but it's hard to prove that this is the case. Not hard in the sense that it's hard to prove it, but you have to make a complete argument, the moderator needs to be or be made familiar with the content and there is no guarantee that the direction of the novel won't change in the future.
That's good. I may attempt to report some select 1 and 2 star reviews that are blatant misrepresentation, see the reactions.It depends on the moderator, the review, and what you say in the report... As with 99% of all reports, for better or worse.
I've reported reviews that were blatantly wrong/lying about a game and its content, and most were dealt with positively.
At the very least, those who believe in thewho the fuck even self inserts in 2024
Go to pornhub...who the fuck even self inserts in 2024
Already done, what is the next step?Go to pornhub...
Go to the comment section of Rule34.XXXAlready done, what is the next step?
you are wrong, and I can easily prove it."Blank slate" in so far as we shape his development through the course of the story.
"You/Us" as in the MC is the means by which we get to immerse ourselves into the world and story, not that the protagonist is us.
We can shape him, but we are not him.
