  1. I really like the idea of removing save points. Decisions matter! Put some heart behind your choices! I like it a lot. Sometimes I push myself not to save at big choices in vns even because it makes the story so much less engaging when you can just get it to tell you what you want it to with ease. Or something similar. That feeling of "oh shi- I messed up this isn't what I wanted" is really interesting when you invest in the story and your decisions-when you decide that you're in it for the long haul. Like maef said, it's not just about the ending you get, but the story that you experience along the way. When I read a visial novel, I always stick to my choices on the first read through. And if I die or get a bad ending or a good one, I read it, take the story to heart, and most of the time step away from the vn for a while. A few days or weeks or months or years. I can't stand that feeling I get when I read skip around in stories trying to find a place I haven't been. It's so unnatural. (Also walkthroughs for the most part are dumb for similar reasons. They're okay if you're interested in a certain piece of the story after reading most of it, maybe, but otherwise I don't typically approve of their use) That said I don't think that other ways of engaging with stories are wrong. They just don't make much sense to me. Do what you want I guess, but I'd keep an open mind and try this out. At Nosebleed: maybe you could try not reading the same thing over and over. Take 'sticking with your decisions' to the next level, yo. If that's not working for you then I guess it's not for you. The reason people like it is because it's a story that reads differently based on your choices. There's no need to read all or many of the different paths in order to benefit from the dynamic way the story reads.
  2. haha, you gotta look up some strong decks first! Ummm, I like Korean Dramas but maybe it's not the best idea to watch them because they take up so much time, haha
  3. I was busy, heh. My devious plot to control this thread with MTG is working. buahahaha! Quake with fear! THE SEAS WILL SPREAD AND THERE WILL BE NO LAND LEFT FOR YOU
  4. Beat boxing! maybe learning how to throw a knife??
  5. I actually don't personally really like anything else I've heard from them, sadly. I'm happy to hear you liked it!
  6. It's good? I heard it was made for touchscreens. You say it's better than 7 for us old-fashioned mouse people? Is this the general belief of windows 10 users who switched from 7? Does anyone know because I'm actually a little interested Also that Solitaire thing is just hilarious. I mean, free reasons to be salty. I'll take it huehuehue
  7. 7 loyalty Planeswalkers are dumb and annoying though. Elspeth seems awesome though ^^ Digging is fun... t.t
  8. I hope you like it here ^^
  9. Welcome to fuwanovel, i hope you enjoy the avatars and signatures here!
  10. Lol ggggggg. Sorry Ren, that's unfortunate. I don't really have more to say, sadly. I've been posting less recently as well. I just haven't been as happy with people in general. But that's not everyone. Sometimes stepping away can be nice. If you keep wanting to go back then you'll know that it's not worth bailing on. >,> maybe you need some Magic (the Gathering) heh heh heh
  11. Cool. I think my skype is on my profile for anyone else interested in learning
  12. i like potatos but reheated mashed potatoes are hit or miss
  13. Magic the gathering via an online program called cockatrice And idk what's up with that girl, tyrael. Your joke seemed pretty normal to me. Her response was the absurd part. Also she doesn't seem to hold your relationship in high regard seeing as how quickly she was to (threaten to) throw it to the wolves. It doesn't sit right with me. Even if she felt like hsms does (I can't understand it) that's almost a comically quick way to end things. Seems a bit controlling to me. Do you want to tiptoe around her forever, knowing that she'll bail as soon as you make a joke she doesn't get?
  14. Whenever someone calls themselves a good writer I cringe a little. Not that it's a horrible thing to say. Confession: I'm feeling a bit lonely tonight Shu, if you ever want to pick up a fun game, I can teach you MTG with cockatrice! *tries*
  15. Interesting! Welcome to Fuwanovel, then!

  20. ooh, I didnt know that. It was a tiny little thing, though.
  21. YOoooooo, welcome to fuwa. Can you dig it? CAN YOU DIG IT? Well, whatever. Have fun ^^
  22. I found a bump on my foot when I was rubbing it today. At first I assumed it was a small rock from my barefoot walk home earlier, but skin was covering it. So I assumed it was a rock that had gotten stuck into my foot and skin had grown over. But in fact it was a small bubble of blood in the outer layers of my skin. That's pretty interesting. So I got a knife and cut it open. Wasn't really that big, but I always like doing that sort of thing. Gives me cool kind of thrills, like I'm some kind of hardcore thug or something. Idk xD Would have preferred a rock though.
