That mountain really tried. It did everything it could for you, gave you everything it fucking had, and you left it in the dust for some deaf human. The mountain still does what it normally does, but if you look really closely from time to time, you can see a hint if sadness in it's peaks. A hint of sadness that is what has managed to leak out despite the mountain's rocksteady nature, which works to hide the unfathomable amounts of excruciating pain the mountain feels every day because it's only love went unrequited. But it forgives you, because it would want to try to force you into loving it, because that would be wrong, No, it would rather you be happy with someone else than unhappy with it, because that's what love means to this mountain, it puts you before itself, and truly wants you to be happy, even if the feeling isn't mutual.

Just your not so daily reminder.

Adult Rin activates my fatherly instinct, man.

Ah. Well, Norway is relatively close then. Great country to visit. Though, If you have a return flight to anywhere, I'd go a tad more adventurous. Go for Sicily in Italy, absolutely stunning, or Marseille, France. Australia is amazing, or even New Zealand. While we're down that end, Vietnam or Japan is so rich in culture. You have so many options anon, seize the opportunity.
Dont listen to me though, go where you want, absolutely my only wish.

Relationships are fucking crazy bro. Sometimes you're better off without one.

Besides, anyone will basically be with anyone in this day and age, you just gotta ask. Get turned down, oh well, keep trying'. That said, I'd probably avoid it unless you found someone you really liked. Causal relationships are boring to me anyway.
>>
>>126717939
Hit-and-runs are not considered relationships. Fucking with someone for a week or two and then ditching them is no a relationship. It is normal these days though.

Certainly. Then it comes down to concentration and stamina because it's a no-autoskip run, what with being able to hit all the dialogue-transfers at the perfect time for a long time.

No, creating isn't a learned ability.

Something like draughtmanship, sure. The skills needed to manifest you creative ability can be learned.

You can't learn creativity though. In fact, learning it just means that you're memorising ways other people have been creative and are becoming adept at imitating it.
It's like you're learning what people like and producing it, rather than making something.

Picasso learned from the African Tribes.

Van Gogh learned from the Japanese.

Manet learned from the water lillies in his garden.

You're getting stuck up on "learning" as being something only like a teacher telling you how to wash your paint-brushes.

Go out and looking at how the light passes through the leaves of a tree is also learning, anon.

You make fair points, but it just doesn't sit right with me.

When I sit down and have no idea what to draw. When I make a character do a pose just because I know it looks somewhat interesting. When I choose the colours because they fit or compliment one another not because I just know it will look good, when I go with a method of composition that's somewhat standardised or I try to draw something from imagination and need 50 reference photos of different rocks just to render the ground because I can't mentally create details.

It all feels like I'm just pressing the right buttons to get a treat at the end.

Talent is just taste and repetition. You become technically proficient in your medium through repetition. Creativity is the application of your taste through your medium, and taste itself comes from reference points and proactively engaging with art, and learning what personally resonates with you. That's how you find your voice. Most people just don't do this, and that's why they feel uninspired.

I work in a music studio, and so many people I work with complain of un-inspiration. When you ask them what they listen to, it's always either super boring, or they have just stagnated and stopped looking for new music or new art. Ever single person I have recorded or mixed a track for who has totally blown my mind has had interesting taste. It really is all it comes down to.

There's nothing wrong with mimicry, a lot of the best artists found their style by copying who they were inspired by, and discovered their voice in the practical process of doing so. It's all about learning and failing, honestly. It's a really, really good sign that you are looking up reference photos - that's how you learn; you form your own, personal style by amalgamating everything you experience.

>>126726773
Absolutely! Rearranging is a good way of putting it.

You'll usually notice that powerful artists are always really good curators. That's kind of why when you see a musician do a DJ set, it will always be totally unique and totally "them"; it's still recognisably their own style, projected through other people's music. I think it's exactly the same concept in creating art. You're mostly the product of your environment, after all. I hope that makes sense.

Don't get discouraged! Keep trying and keep learning!
>>
huh, this is a comfy thread. nice. don't really have much to add in regards to art though. I draw for fun and for all the time I've been doing it I've made some progress, but the more I get right the more flaws I see. all I can do is to set out to make each new drawing better than the last in whatever way I can. eventually I'll be able to compare to better artists around me.

Maybe I'm just having an existence crisis where I realise that nothing really matters in life, but limited to art.

I just got kinda upset going through rin's route. I remember specifically in the cg where they walk in the rain there's a stroke of purple or something in the backgrounds and it looked really good, and I was just baffled as to how the artist came to the conclusion that it needed that colour. It sounds silly but I was really pretty awed.

>>126727459
Yeah, I think my problem is that now that I've been doing it for so long that I'm no longer content with copying references and other artists as I was in the past.
Then again all things are like that, the more aware you become the more you realise you're shit.
I guess life is just suffering.

I feel you. I've been staring at this blank google doc page for the better part of an hour.

It's at times like these that I wish I was a writer in the 1930's, sitting at my typewriter while smoking a pipe. Watching the sun set through the window beside my desk. Hanako would come through the door, an immaculate white apron tied around her waist, a steaming cup of tea in her hands. Before she'd give me the cup, she'd raise it to her lips, taking a small sip to make sure it's just how I like.

As she puts the cup down onto the desk, she'd lean over and notice that the page in my typewriter is completely blank except for one solitary "The" in the upper left corner, the only work I have to show for the past few hours of running sentence after sentence through my mind, none of them good enough to be put down on paper. Hanako would click her tongue softly at me, slinking around my desk to stand behind me and putting either hand on my shoulders. She'd give me a quick squeeze on my tense muscles, then wrap her arms around me, putting her head close to mind as she asks, "What's the matter, honey?"

I wouldn't say anything at first, instead just settling on moving the unlit pipe between my lips from one corner of my mouth to the other, back and forth. With a sigh, I'd grab the pipe and wave it like a pointer at my type writer, saying "The words just won't come, Hanako, they just don't want to come..."

"Don't worry, honey," Hanako would say, placing a soft kiss on my cheek, "I'm sure they're just waiting for you to find them." Then she'd stand up straight again, moving to the door. She'd look over her shoulder at me, a glint in her eye, and say, "And, of course, if you can't find them, you can always come to for some, ah... inspiration..." She giggles softly, leaving the room with an accentuated sway of her hips, the image burning itself into my mind.

Then I begin to bang away at my typewriter, as fast as my fingers can hit the keys.
>>
>>126728391
Yeah, sounds familiar...

Existential agony and depression is the beginning of your growth as both a person and an artist (if you want to be one). I read an interview with Prurient, where he said that art is what defines our humanness, it speaks to our situation of mortality, and the only way we can deal with that is through art because it expresses the futility of that awareness.
I think you become a whole person by realising that everything is ultimately futile and that you may as well just experience it, whether it is painful, loving or fun. The role of an artist is to communicate those things.
>>
>>126728896
and if you were a writer in the 1930s you'd be wishing you were a writer in the 19th century. just watch midnight in paris and be done with it.

still, if ya can manage wishful thinking like that, I'm sure you can manage a blank doc as well. if you get stuck on starting a scene try to look at it from a different angle, try something new and just start writing without putting too much thought in it. either you'll get something usable or what you wrote will inspire you to come up with the proper way to do it, it's win/win.

>>126728391
it's not just suffering though. finding more mistakes in your works is kind of exciting, since it means you have room for growth. I don't think I'd ever want to reach a point where I couldn't find fault with my work anymore. I don't want to stop growing, learning and experimenting.

It pretty much is. He is nailing it, everything is perfect. Brick phones and a second car, etc, all under someone else's name. Bear in mind the guys he has working for him are total assholes, too, they always were. No respect for anyone outside of their little clique.

I would too if I actually had people skills

Every time you respond to 2013's post You're waifu cries.

You don't want to see you're waifu cry, do you anon?

It's funny because his insecurity is showing more than ever recently as people have stopped replying.

Sorry, I shouldn't talk about him, that's just as bad.

Sometimes I want to see her cry

Like when I show her objectively god-tier music

I want her to cry tears of joy.

It's been too long since I've played it to remember.
But, I fear if I touch KS again I won't be able to handle it.
>>
>>126735671

The one where she got all embarrassed because she had to tell Hisao he couldn't help her change her tampon.

I thought it was an interesting side of Rin (Embarrassed over something normal) that we didn't get to see more often.
>>
>>126735671
there's a lot of good Rin scenes, i don't think any stands out much.
After a recent replay i think i'll go with the first trip to dandelion field or fireworks scene.
>>
>>126735671
don't have one. she never really appealed to me.
>>
>>126735671
Fireworks scene, nothing else comes close.
>>
>>126735671
I thought the cigarette scene was pretty thought provoking.

Maybe it's because I'm a newfag, or maybe I just have a heart, but I have no fucking clue why they seem to hate you, broheim.
>>
>>126735858
I feel exactly the same. We're supposed to improve after KS, right? I did for a bit but then totally fell off..
>>
>>126736445
being a newfag is the obvious answer
all it does is shitpost
and more recently, getting mad at people not shitposting, which is pathetic
>>
>>126736445
If only you knew

I strongly advise you to not interact in any way, especially reinforcing him

>>126736962
imitating the avatarfag nobody likes to try and convince people to not like the autistic shitposter by "defending" it

is really unnecessary. we can handle the explanation on our own
>>
>>126736962
It probably is. I'm not a personal hater, I prefer to ignore and not post about it (and I don't get the amount of posts about him when he comes by), but I don't think it's an undeserved hate meme, the guy is really annoying all the time and sometimes I wonder why aren't the bans he gets permanent.

Well, I'm not going to join the hate train till I personally see him shitposting when no one else is. That hasn't happened yet, his Hana art is kawaii desu I can't see getting that angry at him anyway.

I'm not 2013.

>>126737270
Or you know, you could just ignore 2013 and stop perpetuating the circlejerk of 2013 hate. But I'm sure that's much to difficult for you.

>>126737296
I think the hate is more centered on what happens when 2013 enters the thread, which is completely separate from 2013's actions. Just because people go nuts when 2013 enters the thread does not mean it's their fault, does that make sense?

>>126737572
That's the best way to go about it, don't fall for the circlejerk.
>>
>>126737459
The smoking scene, the orange-feeding scene, the walk around the city at night... God, there's so many. Such a good route. <3

I really need to play the Alpha version, which, skimming through the script just now, seems a little different in places.

What's worse, an autistic tripfag taking off his trip to defend himself, or a second autistic avatarfag entirely?
