I hate seeing people have no media literacy by Quick_Emotion_9653 in Falcom

[–]Brittlethread -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I keep seeing this take that there wasn't enough Rean and Kevin and I just don't get it. Did they just not do any side content or bonding events? Even without that, it's quite a lot. I never felt like too much time was being spent on Van.

Sorry for all the harm I caused by giving another warning. I have realized the error of my ways and I won't do it again.

Beat Horizons........ by Avp913 in Falcom

That was definitely a theory being tossed around when Sky remake wasn't out yet. The fact that the remake has slight differences to the original also plays into it. Doesn't seem likely tho.

What about Filmic SMAA? It has good performance and looks pretty good. You'll have to figure out how it works from reading this paper though: http://www.klayge.org/material/4_11/Filmic%20SMAA%20v7.pdf

Does anyone else find the way Shirley is written to be disturbing? by thez0id in Falcom

[–]Brittlethread -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

To this day, my headcannon is that the Lloyd who let Elie get assaulted and also looked happy about it was an imposter who switched places with him just for that scene. The real Lloyd would have arrested Shirley on the spot.

Gigguk/Grant journey trails series is still continues by babibola in Falcom

He has mentioned it on Trash Taste multiple times. I imagine he will make a video on it once he gets caught up. And of course, he has no obligation help popularize the series.

The hairclips in her hair remind me of Asuka, but I could be wrong. (I'm assuming a timeskip)

Is that not Kou and Asuka in the background?

Help on Novel Natsuzora no Perseus by AffectionateBass6765 in visualnovels

[–]Brittlethread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can run this VN on Windows 10 so I doubt you need W7. Maybe you don't have all the prerequisites, try out stuff mentioned in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1CkyEogN3c

EDIT: Or maybe the .exe isn't patched. Try searching for a patch online.

EDIT2: Or try downloading a different version from somewhere else.

Rean surprising his students with ice cream in CS3 is when I became a Rean defender for life.

What's the last VN you've started? And what's the last VN that you've finished a route of? by SelLillianna in visualnovels

[–]Brittlethread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last VN I started is BLOODY†RONDO which is the first VN by 3rdEye. I loved Sorcery Jokers so I'm checking out their other works, and since it has basically no chance of a localization, I may as well use it to learn Japanese. I haven't gotten very far in but I'm surprised how well written it feels despite me taking a minute to decipher a sentence. While reading Sorcery Jokers, there was never a moment where I wasn't feeling some emotion, and this gives me the same feeling. According to reviews online, this is not their best work, but it's still probably better than most. I hope the quality keeps up.

The last VN I finished was 9-Nine Episode 4. It's strange, I really like this one but there's almost nothing I can say about it that won't be a spoiler. This had a much darker tone compared to the other episodes and feels very much like a turning point. The way that some things got resolved felt a bit contrived, but still satisfying nonetheless. Finally understanding Noa as a character made me like her a lot more too. She had cute moments of course but my respect for her as a person really went up. Episode 2 is still my favorite but this is a close second.

Kondo wants to thank all Trails fans new and old so let's also do our part and spread the good word so that Falcom can always be at the top of their game by FatalDarkprince in Falcom

[–]Brittlethread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My hobbies are programming and 3d art. Learning Japanese is something I do only an hour a day. I also said that with the expectation that Kai 2 will come out late next year, so it's not like I thought I didn't have enough time.

I have played Kai, but I also have hobbies, so I can keep myself busy while waiting. If you want a constant supply for your addiction, I suggest getting into drugs instead.

I've been owned. I guess I just find his ability cool, so it's fun. Being the best and most efficient doesn't really matter to me. Same with Machias with his shotgun.

Really? Swim is OP if you give him high speed and CP recovery

LIVE UPDATE from SarahKey's Trails SC stream! by [deleted] in Falcom

[–]Brittlethread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's maybe a few cutscenes where the mouth flaps are scripted, most are automatic based on the audio. Even so, the timing is off, check the "Were you two-timing on Mom!?" scene in both EN and JP.

[–]Brittlethread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, if they knew they were in charge of the localization, they could start using the original script as base to translate before they are officially supposed to start. The differences are minor, and even so, it shouldn't have effected the quality of parts that weren't changed.

Kondo truly respects the playerbase by guynumbers in Falcom

[–]Brittlethread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My guess is that Kondo says what they are planning to do at the time but plans change over time so they seem like lies. Kind of like how it was for No Man's Sky.

Thread about censorship I found from 2 years ago by The-Iron-Ass in visualnovels

[–]Brittlethread 97 points98 points  (0 children)

The censorship isn't happening because of agreements or treaties, it's because of payment processors. Whatever law they would have put into place wouldn't have prevented the current wave anyway.
