  1. 70% nipple is fine for a 17+ game, but if they want to tag it All Ages, I believe the NPT (nipple percentage tolerance, obviously) is only 7.5%.
  2. As long as seasonal hats don't count, I'm down with this. But if the software isn't smart enough to recognize changes for seasonal hats, then down with this.
  3. False. I'd probably drop them on the floor and step on them in bare feet and writhe in agony. Next person is writhing in agony.
  4. Confession: I managed to fuck up cooking a grilled cheese for dinner. This is an especially painful admission given that I'm actually a pretty good cook.
  5. Nijima Yuu on a Key game... huh. I'm honestly unsure what to think about Nijima Yuu writing something "more in line with Key's style", but I guess I'll just have to wait and see.
  6. Attempting to clarify Kokoro Connect, since I think your expectations have, with only the best intentions, unintentionally been steered off-mark. Like Mr. Poltroon of Varela said, Kokoro Connect is clearly split into 4 arcs, including the OVA, which you should watch if you like the main season because it's basically like the main show got an extra 4-episode arc. Each of them has a solid, complete ending for its arc, including the last one. While I would love to see more, I don't feel like I was left hanging by the ending in the slightest. The show definitely has its share of drama, and it gets pretty alarming at times, but think more like scary things happening to people, rather than relationship drama (though there's some of that too). And, although this is obviously a spoiler, it's a very relevant qualification, so I want to point out that every arc is resolved positively for everybody involved. The show's focus is not romance, nor comedy, nor do I think it's even the drama itself: it's really about the characters, and to a lesser extent plot. The plot is actually rather interesting, IMO, but I think it's mostly there as a vehicle for the characters. All told, I think the show doesn't fit particularly well for this thread, which is why I haven't recommended it myself, despite my having watched it probably three or four times by now... But that said, it's amazing, and I love it, and I really wish more people would watch it and fall in love with it, too
  7. absolutely enormous dildo
  8. False, it's early in the morning, and when I do drink, it's at the end of the day. Next person has a festive avatar.
  9. False, I don't even have time to finish this
  10. I thought you were commenting on the idea of Makise Kurisu actually playing Steins;Gate 0. It could happen.
  11. He looks so angry. 6/10
  12. False! Next person is of legal drinking age.
  13. I have to agree with most of the thread: if you're not from Japan, you probably shouldn't be writing about Japanese people. If you're from Spain, write about Spanish people. Don't do it because that's what you think I want to see, or even because it would be a pleasant change of pace (even though it really, seriously would; Highway Blossoms, as many problems as I had with it, was a breath of fresh air for its setting and some of its themes); do it because you'll almost certainly do a much better job with it. Honestly, when I see a western VN with a cast full of Japanese names, my immediate reaction is: "weeb; probably not interesting". If the creator is so stuck in the world of JP VNs that they can't even get their head out of that country, there's very, very little chance they have anything substantial to add in other areas. If enough people say good things about such a project, I'd certainly take a closer look and reassess that position, but the first impression left by a project like that is never a positive one, to me, and I have yet to see a case where that first impression was wrong. Unrelated, but I clicked the screenshot link after @Darklord Rooke said something about "a nice sensible longsword" and thought to myself, "That's not a longsword, that's a claymore," and felt a lovely jolt of smugness when I scrolled down to find the OP correcting both him and Kurisu. Me: 1. Errybody else: 0.
  14. False. Next person is the person before last.
  15. consumed by their
  16. You're welcome I'm still slowly going through Koihime Musou. I'm probably somewhere over halfway done now? At first, it felt like I had too many turns during the home base phase; now it feels like I don't have enough. When Chouryou/Shia joined and I got spend more time with her, I realized that I apparently had grown quite fond of Kansai-ben when editing the twins' route in TH2, so I had a lot of fun with her. Unfortunately, I think she only got three home base events total, so I won't get to see much more of her now . Still enjoying this VN's approach of throwing a ridiculous number of heroines at the player, and how surprisingly deep its commitment is to most/all of them. In spite of the aforementioned shortage of Chouryou events, even with her I feel like they did her justice as a character.
  17. Meanwhile, in Australia
  18. False, I don't recall my grandmother making pancakes. She wasn't much of a chef; might have been outside her repertoire... However, I make rather gray pancakes (well, you know, except the parts that are nicely golden-browned), because I use half buckwheat and half regular flour. And they taste amazing, thank you very much. Next person appreciates Gregorian Chant.
  19. the ancient thread
  20. It's been years since I watched it, but I think the "exams" arcs in Naruto are really good.
  21. False. I'm more of a sipping kind of guy, I guess. Next person loves to eat, eat, eat, apples and bananas.
  22. Crap. I was gonna say 'False' because my bedroom has hardly anything in it, then I remembered all those little buttons on my nightstand with shit like Aigis and Madoka on them... and the closed bookshelf next to my bed which, if you open it, is full of anime blu-rays and DVDs. Sigh. True. Next person has regrets.
