If you guys want to continue this debate, you should move to a thread of its own.
But isn't that really the point of post-graduate studies? Especially in the arts?delta wrote:It's awfully difficult to convince ANYONE of that, mostly for the reason that it's laughably absurd.TheHivemind wrote: It is awfully difficult to convince a department full of Shakespeare and Byron Shelly devotees that Zork or Homestuck have real literary merit.
You've got it the wrong way around. "A Russian orphanage" is the answer we give to the question "If not for Japanese highschool, what setting you would've used for KS?". It's asked often because we tend to rail against KS's setting every chance we get.Dream wrote:I think i read a reply by the devs in this thread that said KS's original setting was planned to be a russian orphanage in the 20's (At least i think i read that, apologies if i'm mistaken) but the setting of the finished product is very different.
What drove you to this change in setting? Was there an specific reason for which you decided to make that change?

We never had any meetings with the entire writing staff - time zones made scheduling practically impossibile. Instead the development discussion was rolling over on IRC and our dev forum so that whoever was present participated, and people waking up/logging on got updated on what had happened while they were sleeping or at work, school or whatever. Especially for the first couple of years this was more or less (mostly less) continuous around the clock, so I could answer both "never" and "almost every day" to your question.AMerePerson wrote:How often dd the writers meed to discuss things like the general timeline of the story? I noticed that, for the most part, the timeline seemed consistent, but there were some discrepancies.

Considering the game was inspired off a image, that showed qualities of the 5 girls, there probably weren't any characters that were created then scrapped, not counting people created for april fools stories.Rikabro wrote:Willing to embellish a little?
