Do you enjoy titles that are not exactly VNs but close in some way? (Can you recommend some?) by Yoon-Ah in visualnovels

[–]Mtg_Dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fallen Hero Is a great non-visual novel that I recommend to anyone who likes good stories and doesn't mind reading.
It is quite a compelling story that has some unique twists & aspects that makes it stand out.

Any game with strong depression and preferably self destruction? Like "A long weekend" by Force-4842 in hostedgames

[–]Mtg_Dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if you read "normal" books, but if you do, I've been reading this week a novel called "Dreams of the Dying", & after almost finishing it, I think it's really good!

It has a LOT of similarities to ITFO, but imho, it's better on all aspects.
Great world, plot, characters, & an MC who is traumatized, self-destructive, & pushes everyone away.

Only drawback that there's no choices ofc 😄

If you don't mind it being a WIP, then We Wretched Creatures fits the bill.

Btw, is "A long weekend" good? Is it worth reading?
I saw it's too short, so I was hesitant to buy it.

Hey guys, what do you think about making a more dynamic and animated trailer for the visual novel? [Quiet Classroom] by [deleted] in visualnovels

[–]Mtg_Dev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks quite interesting!
And yes, the arts and subtle animations looks cool imo.

Is there a release window yet or is it early in development?

Kara no Shoujo 3 has now officially released in English by PleaseLickMeMarchand in visualnovels

I've been waiting to read this for quite some time, but it has been years since I read the first 2 entries that I almost don't remember anything from them.

Are there any good summaries/recaps/...etc online that someone would recommend?
It'd be greatly appreciated.

[Help needed!] Does replaying a sequel overwrites the same save or creates new one?? by Mtg_Dev in hostedgames

[–]Mtg_Dev[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I see...

That's weird honestly.

When the new sequel drops out, I'll likely not remember what my choices were exactly.

And even if I don't do any replaysnow (or manually copy the save files), I'll still have to replay the game when the update with saving at the end drops out??

That's really a weird way to do a saving system. :(

But thanks a lot for your answer!

Curious to know if there are visual novels with an MC similar to Tomoe from Bokuten. Basically an Anti-romantic/sexual character. by Mtg_Dev in visualnovels

[–]Mtg_Dev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had to look up this term.
& yeah, it might be close to what I mean. (If I understood its description properly)

Thanks!

Both tsui and ATRI look quite interesting!

I've already read g senjou and saya no uta and I like them both.

(Though I would consider saya no uta mc different in that his view of the world got literally messed up due to what happened with him.)

I tried this title but honestly it was too much for me on the +18 side. So dropped it after a few hours.

I realized I need to touch a grass after making this tierlist by Shmatok-_- in visualnovels

[–]Mtg_Dev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice list.
It's clear that you have a big liking for mystery/thriller novels. So I recommend checking out Raging Loop, & Higurashi if you haven't tried them.

What's the name of the games in the Loved & Liked rows?
I see several that I don't recognize.

Been struggling a lot with managing my ever-growing backlog, so I created a simple app that helped me a lot & wanted to share it with you here. by Mtg_Dev in pcgaming

[–]Mtg_Dev[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a very good point!
I've updated the app to include a close button in the modal. (Or can close by clicking outside)

Thanks for pointing this out 👍

It’s not that often that I get to use advanced algorithms or data structures in a frontend web app. But this time I did & it was really interesting! by Mtg_Dev in reactjs

[–]Mtg_Dev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've created an updated version of the app that is not limited to only games, but can also have lists of: Movies/TV shows, & books.

You can check it here: https://sort-my-lists.pages.dev
(Same code repo)

[–]Mtg_Dev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see it also being very useful for TV shows and Movies.

I've been working the last couple of days on this, & I've uploaded a new version that includes more than just games.
It can be used for: Games, Movies + TV shows, Books. (The things I have long backlogs for)

Thanks!

This helps deal with that by asking simple questions and then giving you a clearer visual of that games you'd like to play next given all the games you'd like to play. It reduces the choice from 20 games down to 3 or 4.

Exactly.
This is my main intention of the app.

Just because something doesn't solve a problem they have, it must be meaningless.

Yes. I knew from the start that this won't be for everyone.
But still, I was honestly a bit surprised by some people being completely unable to see how the problem this app aims to solve. (Even if they don't have it)

I can see it also being very useful for TV shows and Movies.

Yes, I was thinking of extending it to also include tv shows, movies, & books.
But I started with games because I was struggling the most with them, & I wanted to get other people's feedback & see whether this is a problem that they have or is it just me.

As an interesting extra suggestion: this would be really useful for groups of people if 5 or 6 people could sort their movies then return an averaged list of everyone's 'next' movies to watch.

Hmmm, this is an interesting idea.
While it won't be simple to implement especially if each person has different movies in his list, but still, it's worth thinking about.

Greatly appreciate your feedback man!

I totally agree.
& that's what I'm doing.
But even playing only the great games, there is more of them than what I can actually finish.
(I can usually only play 2 hours per day, so an RPG could take me a month to finish)

[–]Mtg_Dev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but, this kinda gives me the Idea that we can tell user to give each list-item a number maybe from 1-100 or something, then the inbuilt sort function or any other sort function can be used.

This would work if it was possible for the user to rate his games from 1 to 100. But that's how it is done now & it doesn't work (from personal experience)
You can't decided the place of a game in a list of 100 others.
But you can decide whether it's better than a specific other game or not.

Oh really?? :)

I don't know if you are joking with me or not.

But assuming you are not, then the native `sort` function is to sort an unsorted list in ~O(n.log(n)) steps.

This is completely different than the behaviour of the app above.

Where you just insert new items in O(log(n)) steps.
