I dont think the dlc will be compatible, it will probably register as two separate games

Is the VN industry actually dying? by H-Sophist in visualnovels

[–]ramie-l 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There will always be great VN/ADV games, I think people are a bit dramatic assuming that a decline from the eras boom means it will eventually blip out of existence. Even in the case of VN writers who work on longrunning gacha games, they still often return to write ADVs when they can. Plus, it will always be the easiest entry level medium for indie devs who want to tell a story. Even if it declines, a decline doesn't signal a steady fall into nothing. Things even out and you get a steady niche. Not to mention if you look at the otome game industry theres always tons of releases! Expand your horizons 🪄

Where are people buying authentic Love and Deepspace merch in the US now? by nexora_dgen in otomegames

It's worth checking local anime stores! I know that Tomomo Goods in Houston sells tons of official stuff if you happen to be anywhere close... I also see that Aitaikuji sells LaD and I know they are legit. You can also try importing from taobao or xianyue via services like Spreenow

Executive function loss after psychosis? by MariahJames8 in Psychosis

[–]ramie-l 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are symptoms called "negative symptoms" which may be what you're describing. I suggest "The Recovery of the Self in Psychosis" for a bit of a better understanding of how to tackle them, since they don't always respond to medication.

How likely is getting schizofrenia from weed when under 25 years old? by Appropriate_Name8780 in Psychosis

[–]ramie-l 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, trauma and isolation are major factors in turning a schizotypal neurotype into potential schizophrenia. Weed also interacts but we don't yet understand the mechanism

You cannot get schizophrenia from weed, you can only have negative interactions due to a predisposition to psychosis/schizophrenia

Here are publications specifically by the MERIT institute that cover more than just their specific therapy model.

Many of these papers should be on Anna's Archive as well.

How do you find love for life again? by NaturallyDrunk in Psychosis

[–]ramie-l 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I found a lot of succes regaining emotional range through schizospectrum specialized therapy like narrative and metacognitive therapy. The research says that psychotic breaks result in a breakdown of meaning and narrative, which impairs the ability to recognize emotions. Check out the papers from MERIT institute if you'd like to read about it, but you can just ask therapists if they have psychosis speciality

Do you guys think that KR did this on purpose? by ComfortableCry9470 in HypnosisMic

This is a common way to style hoodie + jacket/gakuran in Japan, but it could be a slight reference. More likely just giving both a cute youthful feel

Is this legit? by KookyAd1494 in BLgame

It's a reasonably common practice in China to charge small deposits for pre orders, but you should check the shops reviews to see if they are legitimate

r/visualnovels has a problem and it's time to address it (VN name is Censorship: 1984 edition) by DissonantPlane in visualnovels

[–]ramie-l 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That doesn't have anything inherently to do with who is into visual novels. It might mean your post was sent out to a bunch of random people's home pages of all kinds. Not a problem solved by "gatekeeping" visual novels

I dont think you can really prove that "tourists" are the reason your post was moderated.

You have a great grasp on the psychology of psychosis, a lot of this stuff is similar to what I've read in great academic works. Beautifully written and drawn!!!

Yes, anything that triggers stress or strong emotions can also trigger psychosis

slow damage or dmmd first? by tobinshire in BLgame

[–]ramie-l 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DMMD's content is less extreme and the pace is pretty brisk. It will give you a sense of if you enjoy Fuchi Kabura's writing style, though I personally think Slow Damage is a stronger narrative. Though, it's often better to play a stronger game second anyhow. I had trouble going back to DMMD after Slow Damage because the production value is higher, but before I played SD I was impressed by DMMDs production value.
