Slightly late mid-video update & Q&A (August edition)
Added 2022-08-29 01:50:15 +0000 UTCHelloooooo again everyone! Once again I am... slightly late, because of being busy with reading and editing and such. Having to patch up Ayayo and edit Possessioner over and over again took quite a bit of time...
Anyways, the big announcement for this time if you have yet to see, is that I will be taking questions in the comments here to answer in next videos Patreon segment! Or maybe tacked onto the ending. I'll figure out a way to make it work.
I cannot guarantee I'll answer everything in the video, but for those I can't I'll try and reply in the comments. Please keep it SFW and not too personal; basically if you wouldn't be comfortable with someone asking you The Thing and having it broadcast on a public platform, I probably wouldn't either. But if you have something you wanna know and have in a video, then shoot me the question down below!
That said -- update time!
Jisatsu 101: The skrunkliest game I've ever read, yet also pretty fascinating. One of the 'big three' denpa games alongside SayoOshi and Tsui no Sora, and while I haven't read those two - outside a short bit of SayoOshi - I don't think either of those games can match this one in terms of pure absurdity. I've finished reading the game, currently writing the script and then will edit. Sadly this may be released *after* the 9th depending on how quick I can finish it, but taking longer than I expected to read and spending so much extra time getting Ayayo back up took some time away.
Rance series & AliceSoft: Same as before, currently playing through 03 when I'm not working on Jisatsu.
PC-98 magical girl games: Still on the cards!
Weird 3DO shit: As mentioned in the Ayayo and... uh, I think the Possessioner video? I don't quite remember. Anyways! As mentioned somewhere, I have now secured a 3DO and will have it... soon! Depending on how soon, either in October or November I'll be looking at a variety of weird and interesting titles that never made it out of Japan for the platform.
???: I'm still more than happy to hear suggestions on shorter titles from before 2003 or so to take a look at! Preference to PC98 stuffs, but really I'm good with early Windows as well.
Thank you all for the amazing support up to now and further in the future - I'm really, really excited to continue making this kind of content and introducing more people to some really incredible (and not so incredible) titles! ＼(≧▽≦)／
Comments
Since I missed this one in the video -- absolutely! I may end up doing one for next month too.

2022-09-07 21:02:56 +0000 UTCNot at all! I'm editing the patreon segment now and have another VO I need to re-record anyways. I'll sneak this in

2022-09-05 23:18:09 +0000 UTCLate question, probably won't get answered but meh i could try anyway: Could you name your top 5 visual novels that were the worst to make it run on modern systems (even using virutal machines)? i am talking the type to have so many issues that you considered giving up on it

2022-09-05 23:17:23 +0000 UTCQ1: Have you ever considered learning PMD MML and making music with your SoundboardNA? Q2: Do you have any interest in covering any very old, usually 8-color, titles other than say Rance? If so, any in particular? (And a quick note, the 3DO and Famicom are for sure shipping on Friday or Saturday morning. Hopefully they'll be to you safely at the beginning of next week! Thanks for making cool stuff, you deserve the moneys.)

2022-08-31 17:18:06 +0000 UTCMy dumb question: Who is your favourite Foreigner in FGO? Serious question: How exactly do you feel about Eroge that have more "questionable" themes for its H content? I know some people will argue it shouldn't exist but I don't really agree and was just interested in the opinion of someone much more familiar with eroge than I am.

2022-08-29 18:47:37 +0000 UTCQuestions: Are there any plans to do a milestone video or something where you go over your setup and maybe some tips for others looking to get into never-translated VNs? Stuff like emulators, text hookers, etc. This will probably get addressed in the Rance/AliceSoft video but how do you deal with VNs that have wildly objectionable content (see: 'hustling' in Dohna Dohna) but some combination of art, story, music or gameplay systems that makes them otherwise enjoyable? Other Comments: I am still so freaking stoked for that Rance video (as evidenced by one of the questions above) because your perspective is super valuable and I know you're gonna kill it on the video. And just generally... thanks for the work you're doing. You've reignited my love and appreciation for a medium that I've honestly let fall away over my life and now I'm here gradually going through Full Metal Daemon Muramasa and realising what I've let pass me by.

2022-08-29 12:39:56 +0000 UTCI have a couple of questions. How would you define the artistic merits of early eroge when their primary purpose was to arouse? What would you say the most feminist eroge game or the one that has the most feminist themes? This is a pretty niche hobby, what forums or websites do you go on for your research?

2022-08-29 05:33:28 +0000 UTCFun idea: how about a vid on some of the lesser known doujin fighting games from the early 2000’s? Obviously melty is a no brainer but you could focus more on the other side of lesser known works like the Key and Leaf stuff

2022-08-29 03:05:48 +0000 UTCI love your focus on music, and would love a playlist of your favourite soundtracks from the VNS you've talked about on your channel (if that's something you could see yourself curating ofc! Absolutely no pressure). I would also be curious if you could one day share your modern accessible/ switch VN recommendations (if you have any - other than the Dōkyūsei remake), as your taste is 10/10 impeccable imo ! Although I'd be shocked if any modern VN could capture the magic of the vintage titles you focus on in your channel. Huge shoutout to you and everyone who contributes to your videos, you are truly doing Gods work. Thank you very much and have a great day. :)
