Visual Novel Stream Discussion Feat. OriginalRen + Solidbatman! [Live Tonight!]

[OriginalRen]

As part of my visual novel streaming/podcast project I announced the other day, I also wanted to announce an addition to all of the content I previously posted. If you didn't get a chance to read that thread, you can find it linked here. For those of you wondering what the addition will be, solidbatman and I want to host visual novel monthly streams discussing games we have played and the industry as a whole. Exciting news, there will be a live recorded stream tonight!

Listed below are all of the details regarding the podcast episode tonight. I understand the time may be odd for some people, but we hope to see you there!

Stream Time: Wednesday, October 28th @ 9:00pm CST/10:00pm EST (Thursday, October 29th @ 2:00am UTC) -> 5 hours from the time of this post going live

Stream Location: http://www.hitbox.tv/originalrenfuwanovel

Stream Guests: OriginalRen + solidbatman

Visual Novels Discussed/Topics Covered:

Games by solidbatman:

• Little Busters
• The Menagerie
• Over the Hills, Far Away
• Sakura Spirit
• Cursed Sight

Games by OriginalRen:

• Hoshizora no Memoria
• Grisaia no Kajitsu (Covering the entire trilogy, but avoiding spoilers for the 2nd/3rd game)
• Sharin no Kuni
• G-Senjou no Maou
• Lucid9
• Violet Hill

In addition to the games listed above, we will also be discussing how the structure of visual novels can be both positive and negative for fans. Both sides will be looked at, since I have lived in Japan and asked a few otaku about it before. Finally, we will also discuss how "true routes" affect a game and what it does to the overall story.

While this is a list of topics and games, not everything will be covered and additional material may be showcased. We hope to see you there! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Can hitbox TV handle the amount of salt the two of you will generate?

This sounds awesome, and if I wasn't down to my last gig of internet at the moment I'd definitely watch it (HAVE to get better internet ...) It's a shame you don't have any OELVNs like Cinders up there, then you could discuss the difference between route style VNs and choice+consequence style VNs and the pros and cons of both instead of only discussing route structure.

As per usual, everything will be recorded. I understand that not everyone will be able to attend at that time. I will probably divide it into parts as well if it gets to be an extended length.

if I wasn't down to my last gig of internet at the moment

So the rumors of Australia being stuck in 2002 were true...

[Darklord Rooke]

2005, not 2002. Let's not make it worse than it actually is ...

I apologize in advance for being unable to derail this one into oblivion. But I really have something better else to do at 5 AM

You guys should try to advance quickly on your topics. After all, snails and salt don't go well with each other 

[Katatsumuri]

After all, snails and salt don't go well with each other 

And I was planning to attend this...

Meh, what could possibly go wrong, it's not like there's going to be too much salt or anything.

Any recordings or snippets of this? I cant make it again.... f#@$!

Edit: Nm I saw the word "recorded" just now.
