Suzu Fanatic Posted August 24, 2016 Posted August 24, 2016 The whole situation is kinda sad, yet amusing to watch unfold. EDIT: You know what? I take back my derision - I can respect their attempts to gain feedback. Caio000 and VLOCKUP 2 Quote

Actually, I had no idea that it was even released. And judging by the low review count it unfortuntely didn't get a lot of attention so far. When I saw it on Steam, I assumed it was a Hidden Object game. It wasn't until Rooke's post that I found out otherwise. Quote

Why they even bother is beyond me, gigantic waste of time. http://boards.4chan.org/v/thread/349358869 Nah, I didn't even find out about the /v/ thread until after it was archived. I only really brought it up in the first place because I was surprised people there cared/were interested enough for there to be a 500+ post thread about it. As I said to someone else on Twitter, I of course take everything on 4chan with a heaping pile of salt, but at the same time it is part of my job to monitor community feedback, so I felt obligated to at least give it a skim.

You may call 4chan however you like, but its general crowd is the one that actually buy expensive 18+ VN. Look, how they brought Rance to the West by purchasing many copies of BBH. That's why Mangagamer staff always hanging around there. Yes, /jp/ love to humiliate people, make up conspiracy and throw a stupid tantrum whenever they feel like, but its core VN buyers. Not Nekopara kids that make 100 threads of complain about high prices for "chinese picture books'. So, Frontwing is doing fine job to hear what they say. First hear, not follow every advice! It's basically a right thing to do for every respectfull company, right, Sekai? XReaper, Vorathiel and Gumak 3 Quote
SpeedBeatz Posted August 24, 2016 Posted August 24, 2016 I didn't mean to imply that I'm an active 4chan user - I've posted there maybe four times in my life - just that I look at threads relevant to the company as part of my job! Quote

They should've asked in 8chan instead since isn't that where users moved after the 'cleanup' few years ago? Actually they could've asked here instead. Quote

Infernoplex Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 (edited) I don't know if I should say this but ... I read it all ... that entire 4chan thread xD ... Yes, that's how I waste my time sometimes though I must admit I had a laugh at some comments xD As for the VN itself, everything was already said on here why it didn't sell well ... Personally, by the looks of it, it isn't something I would like to read Though I like the e-mote stuff ... Edited August 25, 2016 by Infernoplex a small typo Quote
Deep Blue Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 I actually feel sad for them, asking help in 4chan, is like that simpsons episode of the 3 nerds guy that didn't know anything about life... Quote
SpeedBeatz Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear (and I hope this doesn't sound rude), but nobody from Frontwing posted anything on 4chan. I have no idea who made the /v/ thread (the OP of which was a screencap of a tweet from someone else who did an article about us asking on Facebook and Reddit), but it absolutely wasn't anyone here. We didn't even make the thread on Reddit, I just posted in the weekly questions thread and then sanahtlig was kind enough to create a dedicated thread for us (on their own recognizance). Just want to set the facts straight, mostly because I don't want it to look like we're being overly aggressive in promotion or anything like that. sanahtlig, finiteHP, XReaper and 2 others 5 Quote

Thank you for your feedback, it's really important for us, that you like our project) We are hope you are enjoying reading while we creating a new episode of ODL) Infernoplex, Darklord Rooke and XReaper 3 Quote
