"I like 'x' and they're totally bashing it. They must be haters and sheep."

And that's a tap-out, folks!


I yield ILY

Maybe i am being a bit naive.

[Zezin]

But back to the real question - is zezin from reddit or not? The truth please!

WITNESS TESTIMONY
Worthington: I saw Zezin saying negative comments about 4chan. That is when I knew he was from Reddit.
OBJECTION!
Zezin: I am ready to present solid evidence that I am a /b/ro and stay away from Reddit!
TAKE THAT!

My facebook page "Bisharp" has multible screencaps from 4chan. You may also note I have nothing from Reddit on the page.

(shameless advertising Ace Attorney style)

But in all seriousness no. I have never been to Reddit, mostly because I never cared.

And I shall sit here feeling smug that I do not associate myself with the dregs of society known as 4chan and reddit. I'm too hipster for those sites, bro.

Aren't there rules on 4chan? I see the numbers 1 and 2.

Actually, I haven't been to those sites either, not too hipster for them, but doing other stuff instead ^_^

In my and Raven's defense, rules are made to be broken.

This is really interesting and all that jazz... but the topic of the thread was moreso.

It's Worthington's fault. I got back on topic then he said I was from Reddit and then I got off track again.

That sounds alot like something Worth would do.....

(Go back one page and there's proof he did it)

Anyway back on topic. I have noticed a lot of people on KSG are beginning to recognize Missing Stars characters. I think it's time we made another one of these collages.

Lazy is such an ugly word. Relaxed sounds much nicer.

Awww, that was actually FUNNY, ILY.

Hell, they were even talking about YOU, Worthington. Seemed to think that your tender age was a strike against you.

Assholes. Ignorance in isolation breeds contempt. Thank GOODNESS I'm only here for the "feelz".

Bunch of stuff to reply to here...

The thing with KS was to me that the girls weren't all that "special". It was a very good VN in its own right and I especially admire it for taking a jab at whiteknighting, especially when the theme is so vulnerable to the old cliché of the player "fixing" the weak women. But once the theme - that disabled people are just like anyone else except their physical disabilities - is brought to light the game loses a central theme. With VNs focusing less on physical appearances and more on personalities and plot, the disability theme soon becomes a mere detail as the focus shifts from the disabilities of the girls, if there ever was one, to their problems that are not directly related to their loss of limbs, scarring etc. - it was doomed to be "self-defeating" and make itself fairly irrelevant very soon. Mental disorders, on the other hand, permeate the personalities of those they affect, which may alter the relations the affected one has with other people and may be a difficult obstacle that has to be overcome - Hisao does not seem to have any major issues with coping with the girls' disabilities in KS, except for Shizune's perhaps if we are genrous. The theme seems to have a much more central role in MS, or at least the potential to play one.

While I agree with you in saying that coping with disabilities seems like it's going to play a very significant role in MS (how could it not?), I disagree that KS loses anything by reaching a point where the focus shifts from their physical disabilities to their non- or semi-related personal issues. One of KS's most significant achievements, in my opinion, was doing just that: demonstrating that people with disabilities are people. Getting the player to look beyond the girls' disabilities and accept them as 'normal' seemed to me to be the point of the whole thing, not an unfortunate misstep. KS made me look at disabled folks differently; even though I mentally accepted the fact that they are people just like anyone else, playing KS made me feel it, too. Now when IRL I see someone who is disabled in some way, I see the person, not the wheelchair or the crutches or the cane. (I mean, I see them, too, but...you know.)

I don't expect MS to downplay anything about mental disabilities (not that I felt like KS downplayed physical disabilities, necessarily), and in fact, I would find it a bit disappointing if it did. I'm looking forward to MS partly because I want to have a moving experience like I did playing KS, but I'm also hoping it will have a similar effect on the way I think about mental disabilities and the people who suffer from them. Some of the detractors aren't wrong when they point out that mental disabilities are going to have more of an impact on the person's identity and abilities to cope, and they can be pretty damned scary. Having a romantic relationship with such a person is a bit different of a deal. Still, one of the things that pisses me off the most about a lot of these detractors is their underlying attitude that because someone has a mental disability they're undeserving or incapable of romance.

(EDIT: After reading this blog post, I want to clarify my thinking: I'm not expecting to come out of MS with the notion that "mentally ill people are just fine and normal after all," but rather I would like to come out of it with a more realistic understanding of the subject, and a more healthy attitude toward them. Right now my views of those who suffer from mental illness are ast least somewhat shaped by movie depictions (usually quite negative), wishful thinking, and the few interactions I've had with loved ones suffering from dementia.)

But I know my hopes are all in vain, since MS is just going to be retard porn.

Holy crap, yes. I'm not entirely certain what state of maturity brings a person to revel in the notion that they're only interested in something for nekkid bewbies while mocking people for being emotionally invested in it.

...Oh, wait, yeah I am: puberty.

This post sums up much of my reaction to the thread:



The rest is the rolling of my eyes in the face of so much hypocrisy. For a bunch of people who seem to be so gravely concerned that a VN is only going to be catering to people with social dysfunctions, they certainly seem to demonstrate a wide array of them.

Also, "crap art"? Really?

While I'm all for getting along with people, nobody should be afraid to speak their mind. Everyone needs to be a bit more honest, and I think real life needs to be a little less sugar coated.

Perhaps, but there's a line between being honest with people and just being an ass. And sometimes the sugar coating helps the medicine go down, like the crazy lady with the umbrella said.
