I'm pretty sure I can find a quote that applies to this.

I want to see in the credits a message from the other devs informing us that they've helped Climatic through his drug problem. What is this stuff that keeps showing up on the Oekaki? :shock:

For those who have been long enough on here to remember me, it would come as a surprise that I do not want the story to contain yandere or any contrivance of that sort.

I would guess the implementation of small things is all I would desire, just enough to make the microcosm of Yamaku turn into a macrocosm. Although fictional, some little things would be nice to read, one or two sentences of Hisao interacting with his parents, or the girls talking about sweet nothings together with their beloved (baby names, for example). Additionally, anecdotes, about time the player has not seen, being exchanged to make campus life a little less centered around Hisao, but more organic, that is.
Some vectors for the personalities, people talking about politics or similar substantial matters as if they knew about them - just as young people tend to do, as well as their plans and aspirations for the future. Maybe even some anger and hate could do good, not necessarily rancour or the kind of emotion that renders people recalcitrant to rational arguments but to detest something creates borders in order to embrace the finite.

The above is not much, I guess in terms of game mechanics, but more a matter of storytelling and pertaining to the ability of an author to make full use of both his tools and the canvas his story renders unto him.


I believe, I am just easy to satisfy. :)
Ahh, Morticia? I would die for her. I would kill for her. Either way, what bliss.

XP I want RIN X KENJI

Hisao was walking back to his room from his class, carrying his new books from the library that Hanako recommended. When he reached the staircase that goes to his hallway, Rin was sleeping on the third step.

Staring at her for the moment, he needed to wake her so he can go back up. But the books were heavy, and he doubted he could lift them back up again, so he nudged her with his foot in her stomach. "Rin?... Rin~?" She stirred slightly, and looked at his foot. With that same look on her face, she looked up as high as she could without turning her head, which was, once again, his crotch. Yawning, she said "Morning, Hisao." He sighed, "Again, next time you address me, please don't talk to my crotch." Rin sat up straight, and looked up to him and nodded. "No talking to the tackle then." Hisao blinked, slouched over and nearly dropped his books. "Oh, books," stated Rin.

Smiling, Hisao lifted them a little higher, "Yep. Hanako helped me find them." "You lost the books?" "No, she helped me chose them." "They're not very cute." The books were all fairly thick. "They're for reading, not for being cute." Rin thought about it. "... I thought the scar girl looked cute... I guess I was wrong." "..." Hisao sighed, noticing that his arms were tiring out. "Can you move so I can go upstairs?" Rin nods, and stands out of the way for him.

Giving his thanks to Rin, he walked up the stairs. Rin followed quietly behind. Hisao didn't notice until he turned around to go up another flight, and saw her tagging along. He tried to get her attention, but she paid him no heed. Continuing on, they reached the floor Hisao's room was at. Rin made her way to the rails and looked outwards to the campus. "... good view." Hisao stopped and looked at her, seeing the scenery behind her as she looked outward. There was a slight breeze, that made Rin's hair shift a bit, and the tree's seemed to watlz in the background. He found himself staring at her, but she was staring at the scene. For a moment, he witnessed a beautiful picture in his head, where Rin would stand there, looking out as everything danced, studying them to her heart's content.

Hisao smiled and absorbed the scene, until Rin turned around, and looked at him quizzically when she realized he was staring at her. "... is there something on me?" Rin started trying to see if there was something on her, making Hisao laugh as she examined the soles of her feet. Hisao continued walking down until he got to his room, where he found Kenji's door wide open. A little worried, he put his stuff away and didn't let it bother him. But he thought of Rin, and realized that she was probably lost so he went back to find her.

Right on top of the stairs was Kenji and Rin, and Kenji was happily talking about something. Approaching them, it became clear what they were talking about. "-... so you see, they really have been planning for an uprising! it's the only thing that makes sense!" Rin was listening attentively, more then I've seen her listen to me, Shizune/Misha or even Emi. Kenji continued to talk with what can only be his 'feminist conspiracy' theory. "I even have charts and graphs that prove it! Wanna see them?" Rin actually nodded; one small, eager nod. Kenji got up and said to follow him to his room, leaving her. Rin got up and followed.

Hisao watched them go to Kenji's room, wondering what just happened.

I would love to see more interaction between the characters, not only the Shizune/Misha, Emi/Rin and Lilly/Hanako blocks. For instance, what would it be like if suddenly Rin had to work with Hanako for any reason? Or what if Misha (alone) suddenly needed to talk to Lilly? Does she really feel the same way as Shizune about her? I mean, of course it's something a little complex to make and perhaps unnecessary, but I'd love to see some of this.

But I like the useless things. Like playing chess with Hanako or finding out what other games Shizune might be interested in. There's this comic in dA which I like because it suggests different situations, like "HEY HANAKO YOUR HAIR IS COVERING YOUR FACE LET'S TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT FOR YOU" (it's nothing like a haircut excuse for yuri, no).

You know, subtle things in the storytelling - flashbacks and sudden reactions are just a part of what shows a character's personality in a game like this.

I guess Kenji didn't notice that he was talking to a girl, wasn't he?

Maybe Rohalman will expand his story in the fanfiction forum. If he wants to; I'm not asking him to do so. He's got an interesting start.

Could lead to a Sweet On Polly Oliver situation.
I found out about Katawa Shoujo through the forums of Misfile. There, I am the editor of Misfiled Dreams.

Oh, something that I also would love to see is the path not to end with the first sexual relationship or an engagement sealing kiss or whatever overused apotheotic ending, d'you know what I mean. It would be interesting to see the couple having to stand the gossip and the fuss ("Oh, so you ARE together indeed oh my god oh my god it's SO CUTE"), working on the new relationship. Knowing each other's parents, coming across Iwanako (perhaps in Yamaku itself for any tragic reason) while going out with the girl, you know, these cases of mere existence.

I think it would be great for Hanako to find a Hentai manga or Porn Mag in Hisao's room, not because of something it may lead to, oh no, because her reaction to a porn mag would be somewhat hilarious :mrgreen: ...or impossibly cute and emotional if the "do you like them better than me" situation comes up instead. Either is good though.

i don't want to because I'll end up chopping up the characters. I'm bad like that. I'll try though, when I feel like it.

She'd go yandere and draw burn scars on all the girls in the porn.
