Whoever made that thread about Katawa Shoujo earlier: fuck you.

I feel like absolute shit. I've just spent several hours of my life simulating something that I'll never get to experience under any circumstances ever and now I feel like absolute shit.

How is this fun? This is torture. I felt amazing throughout but then I got hit by the crushing realisation that I will NEVER, EVER, EVER EXPERIENCE THIS, and now I feel worse than I have in a long time.

VNs are a trap. They're a fucking trap, and I blame you for making me fall for it.

Fuck you.

I guess so. Heart started to race when she said to kiss her (unintentionally got Emi, had no idea my early choices would affect this). I don't think I've ever experienced that level of immersion before, which is why I feel so bad now. Never been emotionally invested in fictional characters like that, especially not in such a short span of time.

>>24829981
Since when was Katawa Shoujo only about sadness and crying? Tracks like "Nocturne" and "Air Guitar" evoke other emotions as well, a wistfulness, or thoughtfulness that sometimes gets lost in a piece's desire to drag out the most extreme human emotions. The quietude of some tracks is what gives KS such a wonderful and realistic feeling. Those quiet moments in life when we reflect, or simply take in the world around us, collect our thoughts, and find some small peace for fleeting second are what make the sad and happy moments all the more poignant.

Maybe it is because I grew up with shitty dating sims and played through VNs before but really Katawa Shoujo did not have much effect on me.

Or maybe most of you guys are faggots and emotional weaklings or some shit.

So this game is a male fantasy about chilling out with happy cute girls who are just happy to be around you.

What's the woman equivalent of this? Do women even have fantasies like this? Or would it just be an assortment of Chads telling her how much hotter she is than the other women and buying her shit?

If you're looking for another Punpun, you won't find it, but anything by Naoki Urasawa is a worthwhile read. Same with Prison School, GTO, Gunslinger Girl. Onani Master Kurosawa is Punpun-esque. And there's Asano Inio's other manga if you liked Punpun so much.

I very much enjoyed Gunslinger Girl. Don't think too hard on the loli thing and just accept it. It's pretty good and I like the illustrations as they're good all around and there's some gun porn to satisfy the /k/ in me. I'm pretty sure there was a typo in the translation I read where someone at the shooting range says something to Claes like "Oh you're the girl who shot the vice president!' and what was meant to be said was "Oh you're the girl who shot the VP" which is the gun she used, the VP70.

>having this strong of an emotional reaction to suspense in a work of fiction

What are you, a black southern housewife watching a soup opera?

Don't get me wrong- I did experience a sort of catharsis after NGE. You'll get this sort of powerful emotional reaction out of any good work of art- it's accepted 2000 year old basic theory of art.

Still, how anyone can get a prolonged negative emotional response from watching anything that isn't sheer mind-numbing boredom or visual gore is beyond me.

Were you screaming "OH DAMN SON NO! NO NIGGA DON'T GO THERE!!!" whenever Shinji had a crisis?

What catharsis means is you get to experience powerful emotions, yes, often negative ones like pain (pathos) or hate. But then you sort of wake up to the fact that they were fictional and come out appreciating the whole experience. Holding an emotional grudge against a work of art just seems inconceivable to me, sorry.

They behave like they're sub-human, operating only on instincts with their lizard brains
The only way the "Nii-san! I- I am embarrased to tell you this... but... I care Nii-san! about you!!!" shit works on your hearstrings is if you've never had interactions with real humans before and are completely and utterly socially depraved.

It's the equivalent to watching sitcoms and thinking "my life will never be that interesting"- no shit, these are abstract illusions that hold no basis in reality that are just an amalgamation of emotions and events.

Congratulations, OP.

You're ready for a true VN, now.

Don't play or you're going to get absolutely BTFO of time and space by feels

Shitty romance VN's are like a litmus test for who is a wet blanket pussy. Not even the good kind, like actual emotional insight and shit, just the kind of kid who masturbates to his facebook oneitis alongside an emaculately put together self pity playlist on itunes.

You're like pigs rolling in your own shit. Protip, OP, the tripe you just played is essentially a self worship game where everyone around you worships you in some indirect form.

The solution is to play another VN.

This is how it starts.

Nice projection there kiddo. Anything else you want to share about yourself with us tonight?

Why is it that whenever you look up the route choices, the route doesn't feel as good?

When I first played the game a year ago, I went for Hanako and looked up all her right choices, and it was good, but it felt nothing like Emi's, Lilly's or Rin's.

man havent played it in ages
i made it through shizune (boring), hanako (feels) and then said to myself - why not try lilly?
when you finish lilly's route you realize that any other route has to be terrible. take hanako's path for example. during lilly's path you find out that she always needed lilly as a friend more than she needed you as a lover, so when lilly leaves (because you werent there to stop her) - hanako actually gets a bad end.
fuck hanako fags - even if you love hanako, choose lilly.

I also liked Lily the most. First time I played I just chose what felt right and ended up with Emi. Second time I went for Hanako then Lilly.

To be honest I found Shizune and Rin's paths boring as fuck. There was nothing interesting hanging around with autists who I felt like I couldn't have a proper convo with, at least Hanako had the cuteness factor.

Yeah, an anime that shit really might make them end it.

or 3d were as worth it
fuck

Am I the only person that didn't find it all that emotional?

I did Emi's route, but just kept getting frustrated with Hisao.
"Don't say that, she'll get really upset"
"You really could've worded that better dipshit"
"Are you fucking autistic, Hisao?"
"What the fuck did you expect she would do?"

If you had finer control over what was said, it would've been more enjoyable.

I have to say, my experiences with Katawa Shoujo and NGE were very similarly soul-crushing. You know another really, really bad one? The Berserk anime. (Haven't gathered the courage to read the manga yet--nb4 "faggot".) Oh god, that ending.

>>24828804
Oh my god fucking this. Best feeling in the world, it's like liberation.

I'm glad I had IRL friends to hoist me out of the deep dark murk of KS shitfuckerry.

The main issue with VN's is that that one day when I downed 2 bottles of Vodka played trough Katawa Shoujo (got Hanako) was more real than the last 5 years of progress with "real" girls.
Don't play VN's anymore.

It's okay, just cry yourself to sleep like I do every so often.

Also, if you got an Android phone, why not read it in bed like I did? Very relaxing, especially on an amoled where the black bars go completely 0 lumen dark.
