I mean I physically felt like throwing up just during the fucking classroom scene in like the prologue. I don't mind that kind of gory shit if the intent is to horrify as a sharp shock or something, but as a permanent state of mind? Can'ttakeit.
I read this post in Rin's voice. Which is weird because she doesn't have a voice.

WOAH RIN FUCKING TEXT WALL

"You just looks so sad all the time and become upset so easily and it makes me confused
and I really don't remember much about yesterday except that you came to my room and that's
why it might be because of me so if it's because of me I think that I know why, it's because
people don't really like talking to me and you might be the same and that would be sad I
know that people and I'm talking about others than Emi too always say that I'm strange and
that I talk strange things so I thought I'd try not to say strange things but that just makes
me think more and new and strange and colorful that was not a good word but maybe you
understand anyway and odd things so if I want to say something I don't really know how and
then the words are not the same as the thoughts because something goes wrong on the way out
but it's not like the thoughts are really the thing I should be saying it's more like the idea
of the thought or the feeling of the idea of the idea of the feeling but it's not the really
any of those either because there is no word for it unless I invent a new one which is not
really useful so I've been thinking if doing things is better than saying so maybe because
yesterday I took those pills and I was feeling a little strange I may have done something
that I shouldn't besides I don't even know if it would be any better if I just could say the
thought there is no telepathy that's real telepathy isn't there I think it'd be terrible and
useful at the same time but right not I wouldn't mind because misunderstanding is so easy
but understanding is not and I thought-"

I knew typing that would come in handy lol

Just finished finished my play through down the Rin route. This game has given me some very fond memories and a lot to think on. Can't say that for much.
I've poked around this thread a little bit and it seems that Lily's route is very good, but what about Emi and Hanako? I have pretty limited time so I'd like to do the best ones first.

Go for Lilly. I think her's and Rin's compliment each other quite well.

You know what playing Analogue: A Hate Story has taught me? That I should be fucking glad Katawa Shoujo doesn't crash.
 
Bah, just now got around to 100% Emi.
I really am glad I picked my choices how I did the first time.
I had the "emi throws you out of the house and is angry at me" version the first time. It felt much better to convince her on the track in comparison to the rooftop stuff.

Looking forward to my next run, since it will be fresh again to me after the couple of weeks away.

Is this a result of talking to her after she leaves the dinner table at her house? I've only ever talked to her mom, but as far as I know I still got the good ending. I might have to replay this now. Does going after her result in a better transition to the good ending?

Think I might use the last one as my avatar but I've gotten so much feedback on Chie I'm afraid to change it.

I got it from not talking with Mutuo after class, not taking advice from the nurse, and pursuing Emi from the table. It was more satisfying for me because I thought I had totally blown it, but it ends well.

Like Skyrim Mods (31 days) and D3 beta (months)? Note this thread's barely 30 days, moved at 29.5ish days.

Yeah they seem to miss a few or have different standards or something. Minecraft was in gaming forever, it got moved to community once, then moved back to gaming, and is now in community.

The mods said that after a month they would move the thread whenever they notice it on the first page.

And if the game was getting a patch or new content or something it could stay.

I don't think this is something to get your panties in a twist over though.

Sure it is. Without "dat page one presence" we will never draw enough morbid cripple porn curiosity to bring in new blood. We will thus become an insular community and eventually die off, carrying the sacred knowledge and weight of all of our combined feels with us, just like the Monumentals in Demon's Souls... Just like Haley Joel Osment in A.I. ...

Just finished Hanako. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better than Rin or Emi, and very close to Shizune's route. She's so adorable!! :3
 
Damn you Ringo. I haven't even gotten past act 1 and I'm already starting to love Rin in "Things you can do" Chapter.

We're currently taking applications to join Team Rin. You will be tested on your ability to rationalize the notion of "sky" and your general social skills amongst jellyfish. Please bring a sharpened #2 pencil and prepare to stab it through your beating heart. She's a heartbreaker, that Rin.

To be honest, I was pleasantly surprised that this thread was as big as it was. KS obviously isn't as main stream as most other games and GAF topics are pretty hit or miss so I'm glad y'all are here.

Agreed. Especially since that'd probably just bring down the divine wrath of the mods.

I will personally launch this thread into the sun.

Due to urging from others I've begun to play this "game". I'm not really sure which girl I want to pursue yet, so the choices are scaring me because I don't want to screw myself over later. I like some aspects of Rin, but she's a bit too... "out there".

Most people will go through all of them in the end. If you want, there're flowcharts all around the net.

Geeze! How long is this?

I'd say the average time for a route is around 5-6 hours, depending on how fast you read.

And there's the skip feature where you can just skip through text you've already read through. It'll pause whenever you come to a choice tree.
