that's it right?

>>737883509
so when does it start to go off the rails?
tried playing it a while ago, but apart from chatting about books and writing poems there wasn't much going on there
was I scammed into playing some dating sim vn

You can finish DDLC in like 3-4 hours dude. It doesn't take long.

>>737883825
Same shit, there are only 2 genders, Monika.

>>737883649
Try and remember the game plays it straight for a long while, when you start hearing something about a festival that's the point

>>737883884
>there are only 2 genders, Monika.
And the other gender is Monika. I guess you could say it's just Monika.

>>737883868
played only one session (1h~1h30) before getting bored of it and never launching it again
wrote 2 or 3 poems, and nothing else really exciting was going on since I'm not interested in japanese schoolgirls

>>737883649
It tries to be a surprise horror where it seems like the plot is just about a high school romance, then it starts rapidly devolving into Silent Hill. I wonder if Salvato ever played Atashi no Riri.

>>737883976
yeah I'll keep that in mind for when I give it another try
I'm not a fan of the genre but since people keep praising it it got me curious to see what the fuss is all about

This board doesn't care if the character is bad, as long as she is a fuckable woman

Where do you think we are?

Hot

>>737883649
the first part is really short (whole game is like ~4 hours at most) so if you couldn't make it through that you really shouldn't bother playing it. Or posting on /v/. Your opinion isn't really worth anything. Stick to scrolling tiktok

>>737883509
>/v/ loves her
because everyone who actually likes Monika has entirely missed the point of doki doki, and /v/ is chok-full of illiterate retards
they don't like Monika, as a person, they like the idea of Monika, as someone who loves (You). but Monika herself doesn't love (You), it's just that the player is the only thing in her world that's actually real, the only thing she *can* love.
stripped of the game's limitations, Monika and Player would likely go their separate ways and be happier for it.

Some of the praise is about the timing of it
The game came out just as steam was getting flooded with low effort Renpy trash
So when people found DDLC and it actually did some interesting stuff? it was actually good for once

>>737884375
introducing browns to anime was a mistake. it should've been a whites-only hobby.

She's a good character and did nothing wrong.
Not sure I'd want to date her though.

>>737884349
>they don't like Monika, as a person, they like the idea of Monika, as someone who loves (You)
True, they don't really care about her character at all, because she is just a mouthpiece for that redditor Dan. If the average anon spent 15 minutes talking to her, they would hate her, her personality is retarded
They just like the idea of a girl who wants them

>>737884748
Every character is just a mouthpiece for the author, what does that even mean? How do you even suggest proving that she said exactly the same things the author actually believes and does in his life?

>>737884895
>(You) can (or should) only romance one waifu
>the others deserve to be happy too
>they're cute when shipped together
needing to insert oneself in the scenario is the mark of an NPC

>>737884895
You're not fucking them either way. They aren't real.

>>737885097
>You're not fucking them either way. They aren't real.
why would you say such a hurtful truth?

>>737884972
I don't think every single character has the same personality, ideas and opinions as the author. Natsuki for example, is quite different from Dan.
>How do you even suggest proving that she said exactly the same things the author actually believes and does in his life?
Search about him, and check his preddit. That retard made Monika an exact copy of him
If you want to fuck Monika you want to fuck that faggot Dan

>>737885043
>>737885097
They want to fuck (You)r ass, and not even in a self inserting gay way

>>737885180

Anon it's a public profile that he uses to post about the game, sorry for wanting to know more about it?

>>737885180
>That retard made Monika an exact copy of him
So you are telling me Dan is an extraverted and empathetic(as long she thinks you are "real", anyways) high school girl who usually does things for other people, but then opens up a literature club in her school to do something for herself as well, plays the piano, and forces herself to act confident even when she doesn't really have everything together?
>n-no that doesn't count
Thought so.

>>737885545
Yes but instead of being a cute animu girl he is a fat redditor

>>737885296

[X] Doubt
I'm sure there are similarities, but saying she is basically an anime girl avatar is a bit of reach.

Would be like saying that one of my most prominent characters in [stuff I wrote] is literally me just because I bothered adding some depth and threw into her some things I also like while I was at it, despite the fact we act absolutely nothing alike.

>>737885545
DDLC makes it clear that most of the high school club shit is a fabrication, and Monika is "more real" for treating that shit as unimportant and talking to the player directly. I won't claim that was the right choice, but it's clear even in universe she didn't start a literature club at her high school, the high school doesn't exist.

>>737886184
The characters are still part of the universe and their personalities are written around it. At best you can argue it's similar to implanting fake memories, but they are fictional characters either way so there is virtually no difference.

>>737885142
Because self-inserting is for the weak.

>>737886424
Their personalities are bits of data than Monika can change out however she likes. They often have completely different personalities depending on how much Monika is fucking with the simulation.

>>737887187
Monika wasn't really unique there though. She is just the one who currently had admin rights.
Supposedly it depends on who becomes the club president.

>Her name is literally "gay sex with women"

you’re clearly angry at people enjoying monika and the game in a non-traditional way and you fancy yourself superior for liking VNs as any VNfag would.
just makes it seem like you have a chip on your shoulder
