if a visual novel doesn't explicitly show or say who the protag is & it has romance in it i pretend its gay



i don't like in vns where it 'shows' the protag but it's just a grey blob or they go out of their way to make them as featureless as possible

either design the character or don't

Same. I really dislike it when VNs hide the character's eyes in CGs as well. You already went through with designing the rest of the character. Is seeing the protag's eyes really that immersion breaking?

I love when they don't give the protagonist eyes though, that's the best part. Like they say that the eyes are the windows to the soul, but homegirl doesn't even have eyes. Like really, imagine being an npc in the game where the richest, most handsome bachelor falls in love with something like this (click). I don't want to put the image in the img brackets cause I don't wanna spam recent posts w/ some eyeless protag. Plus I don't know if scopophobia is still a thing? If it's even spelled properly... But please give me all the faceless protagonists, I just like to imagine them and their chosen route having kids and someone looking at the protag like, "They have your eyes."

Edit: I also love it cause it's like, "When you realize you still have the other eye to draw." Like if I have to draw two eyes and make them symmetrical, well sorry gurl, she ain't gettin' any eyes.

got a secret, can you keep it?
There's a reason why I prefer certain genres of games: when I know it has a ton of collectible in-game stuff + achievements + is set like a jrpg, then I know it's personally good. Oof.

Problem is my completionist tendencies tend to make me stay for too long in one area and overgrind my levels waaaaaay beyond what's normal at that point.

double post but, psn is having a sale on the suikoden games meaning my dreams of them bringing suikoden 5 to me might be coming true
I. LOVE. SUIKODEN V! It's probably my absolute favourite game. I managed to snag it for $12 in an auction when, at the time, they were being sold between $80-$160 for just the disc.

EVERYONE. GO PLAY SUIKODEN V NOW. IT'S A MUST.

Game confessions:
-1 I've never played Harvest Moon: Back to Nature (PS1) without a gameshark :| (but it's my favourite HM, so I should play it without gameshark one day XD)

-2 I almost never finish a game because "the end" makes me a sad panda :c

-3 Sometimes, I'll play on the easiest setting just to get the story and tell myself "it's okay, you'll play it on normal mode or hard mode once you've beaten the game." Needless to say, I never do. :|

-4 My 11 year old niece shows me up by playing the hardest settings on games and finding it so easy to the point it's boring for her. :| (Meanwhile, I reminisce when she was 3 and playing Mariokart terribly XD)

-5 I always want new games, but when I peruse game articles and shops, etc., nothing appeals :c /very specific tastes apparently
i only play games on easy and give no fucks abt it anymore

what do you want to know? my height, hobbies, quirks, the color of my underwear?
it makes me sad that i love overcooked 2 so much when literally all of my other friends either don't own it, don't like it, or refuse to play it with me :c

sometimes i wanna play games with friends but just not talk to them, so that's exactly what i do. it's selfish and everyone i know dislikes it, but iunno. talking is effort and it means i can't multitask anything else. sometimes what i'd like most is just to play the game, listen to/do something else at the same time, and just know that it's you.
