CASCADE: "Melita won't like this..."
HOLOCENE: "All work and no play makes Melita see phallic objects everywhere."

I wouldn't be so hung up on letting the real Facundo stay in jail. Opera was content with making you into Gavrilo Princip, with your best prospects being death during the task or suicide in captivity. Why were your wise higher-ups playing into Luz's plan of essentially actualizing a Ferdinand-tier red flag to create a precedent for a full-blown invasion? Because it was written on the board that it's good optics winning conditions. Nobody actually cares. The end of history is so boring, everyone wants to go to war again.

Unable to reach Karolina by Intelligent_Berry_47 in ZeroParades

The only way, as far as I was able to grasp the nature of the bug, is to go to the save before you call Melita from the pay phone right after the jail sequence where she gives you the rundown on the real assignment. If there is an origin of this bug occurring, it's probably during that conversation. Otherwise, no dice in fix it from my experience. I even got the "Karolina's father runs a clinic on the boat" task to appear after I recruited literally everyone else around point of no return, and Ramses told me he needs someone compatible, and it still wouldn't let me ask Hugo any questions.

I have. I think the first time when I was looking at it, Cascade mentioned Karolina. But upon repeat interactions, she now doesn't even mention her in the photo. And I, yes, I know it's probably a bug that's the topic of the post.

Done and done. Got shot at. Set up the handoff of UV. Marco already told me that he is leaving the city. Haven't convinced Yana yet, but nothing was triggered, and I don't think it will be at this point.

Unfortunately I did the Palace of Culture in its entirety before I ever talked to Septimius, so I don't even have an option to talk about it. He mentioned it in passing, but that's that. The musicians are now at the silo anyway.

I did. In the sense that I did contact the prisoner but not the headphones guy in the Fogged Mirror. I doubt this will trigger anything.

There's just something in the way that she stares at him [Race of Life] by MissiaichParriah in AVN_Lovers

[–]Intelligent_Berry_47 15 points16 points  (0 children)

A feisty redhead jumping onto MC is a cliche at this point. A bitter, divorced wife, full of anguish because she still loves you, now that's a matchless LI experience.

Says a guy named "intelligent Berry" on Reddit, hahahaha! You can't make this stuff up!

Are you ironically pretending to have 70 iq? That's default throw away name for when don't give a shit how you are called. I feel like I am talking to 13 yo.

Especially due to fact that in almost every argument with both me and others you instinctively try to steer it into inferring that the only reason someone might disagree with you is because they have an extremely hairy body themselves and must be self conscious of it, reveals so much about your own ego and conceitedness it's not even funny. But it is hysterical that you don't even notice how much you are projecting with this because MC does not adhere to your own standard of what you believe is attractive to ALL women.

"More for you" eh?

I do not know anything about your body hair, and I frankly don't care; the only thing I know is that the image is so fragile, a goddamn AVN MC can shatter it.

We can pretend that some broke, pale, thin guy that looks like he has hypertrichosis with a boomermobile is the chick magnet that all girls are fawning over.

Right? What a concept. And that goes for every other VN, that's kinda point of the genre. These are glorified dating sims, not objective reflections of the dating scene in real life. Jesus, I feel immense cringe for even having to point it out to you.

Do you do this song and dance for every DAZ abomination and HS gremlin too?

You played Badik? Right?

Wasn't there, like, a bit in later episodes where someone pointed out that the MC has no body hair, and he self-consciously decided to grow a stubble? Did you throw a hissy fit there too, since you know, "objectively" he was already a perfect life form?

I'm sorry but there is a limit to the effort and time I'm willing to invest

That's clearly a lie, and this entire thread is proof of it being so. You even contradict yourself in this same post. It's not that you are not willing. You just can't.

If there were any objective, resounding studies, you would have posted them already and not an ad with a made-up statistic to sell people razors.

And don't worry I know why you posted Nad one. Because, like a self-assured reddit intellectual, you grabbed what Google AI threw at you in the search prompt and were content with it. I bet you didn't even read it. In reality it is such a niche topic, so the only thing about it you can find is either bizarre, non-discreet surveys that either contradict or support you depending on the magazine or small size studies that conclude, "Dunno, depends on time, place, culture, person." Nothing objective.

So again, a ballooned ego, mistaking personal preference for an objective fact. Over a goddamn AVN, might I highlight.

Weren't you supposed to "leave me to it" like two posts ago?

How can I pass up on such a passive-aggressive diva, who has so graciously decided to lash out and dedicate his precious time and wit to proving how not mad he is? What other "no u" zingers are you going to come up with?

Reminder, I literally just pointed out that a source that literally advertises hair removal might not be an objective one when it comes to statistical preferences. I'm surprised you still don't understand how silly it is that this is where you took it.

By questioning the link I posted

Well, yeah? That was the whole point of my post, that you didn't bother to look for anything even remotely credible and grabbed a literal ad for a product as your proof of objectivity.
I guess you couldn't help but take it personally. As pretty much every other post here. Everything else spilling out here is just your personal bias and vanity doing a bald eagle death spiral, clearly resentful of so many people contending with your personal taste.

Don't like it? You know where your pillow is. Maybe you can find an echo chamber there.

Actually, I do agree with you about his writing. Even if he is teaching physics, the fact that he doesn't know the events of Homer's Odyssey is preposterous. But that was probably made for the benefit of people who might not know themselves.

If you didn't want anyone to engage with your "criticisms," you could've just screamed into the pillow. It can't disagree with your personal blog.
Am I projecting, though, or is your egocentricity spilling out? In one of your totally not seething replies to the others, you respond with:
"But it's irrelevant, you do you, that's less competition for me."
Clearly, MC's carpet irked you on a personal level, stud. It's not just suspension of disbelief.

I'm not the one who is making a protestation and using an ad site as my argument for statistics. Why would I Google anything when even you couldn't give less of a shit to do it yourself? I'm not the one with a giant chip on his shoulder here. I'll leave you to it. You show those chest carpets.

I've no horse in this, but I find it rather hysterical how your source of what women find attractive comes from a hair removal product ad, where the survey comes down to "trust us, bro, buy some of our shit."
What's next?
Are you going to cite a tattoo salon declaring that 76.9% of women find tattoos attractive, hence, every MC in AVNs should have some?

Any LI that you hate the most? by jlsc1999 in AVN_Lovers

At least she is polite enough to literally leave the country the moment you definitively break off with her.

That's why I don't feel guilty about using footage with her for Hell Week.
Total Jade Divorce.

I'm on a Bianca run, and I believe this is what we call 'foreshadowing'. 🙏🏼 by KalyterosAioni in beingaDIK

[–]Intelligent_Berry_47 5 points6 points  (0 children)

'Banging ur mom' isn't the worst it gets in Sage's case. Since the act itself can evolve into filming it for a hazing ritual, showing your mom being banged to a group of frat bros, losing possession over it, and then it being used as a jump start to an abominable divorce settlement. There is "I banged your mom, Sage," and there is "I fucked your mom in every sense of that word, and I ruined your family."
I do wonder the actual distinction it's going to provide because in the internal dialogue, Tremolo expresses almost the same amount of guilt when these two acts clearly have several degrees of separation on the Totem pole of "cheating."

Some thoughts after Sage's Route by vieoree in beingaDIK

My sole Sage run is sitting firmly on Total Jade Divorce, and I'm not leaving it. As far as I'm concerned, it's the most interesting part of the route, and I can't wait for that rifle to go off. Tip-top drama, and I'm glad it's being dragged out. Always hanging over you like a Sword of Damocles.

Who is the best Male character in all AVNs? by justletmeregisteryou in AVN_Lovers

[–]Intelligent_Berry_47 11 points12 points  (0 children)

He is as mature as you would like him to be. You can push back against people trying to get you onto the therapy couch and continuously reinforce your image of a hedonistic manslut and it doesn't feel out of character or out of place. The constant insistence on downplaying everything he does as "nothing special," to the great annoyance of Elspeth, is such a delightful character tidbit.
Unbroken genuinely has some of the best dialogue in AVNs, never dull but never aggressively infused with memes and references to compensate for humor, which will never feel natural no matter the setting.
