>Rachel's story fucked too.She isn't or butterfly,bluejay just spiritualdoe
>Spirit animals thing died.Blue Butterfly's storm summoner just it.

One job, Josh.

Still cool. A... different approach to a Valentine's tribute. I guess many of us are alone today, like Frank. Well, or with people (or animals!) we love platonically.

>>168334257
lol.

I do too. It's actually my favourite piece of QTori. I'd also mistaken it for an aquarium originally, but they are in Chloe's truck, the light source is a street lamp, and it's snowing outside, so the window is fogged! You can actually see a little build-up of snow there.

>>168334236
Thank you :3
I use Blender for everything I do. The camera shake and the light leak at the end scene I added in Hitfilm in compositing.
>>168334482
Thanks!! I do want to do more to practise it and maybe turn Tales from Arcadia Bay into a series, but it will be published irregulary because my focus is on other projects mainly and I still have that shortfilm to finish :'D

>>168334549
>No beans on table
Did you not hear Frank singing the Beans Blues about his loss of legumes?

I do kind of see the snow now. A nice scene. Cuddled together in the truck cab with the heat on and some music playing.
I still like the Aquarium idea though. Probably my ideal Pricefield date.

>>168334603
O FUG!
I just realized, you're (or were) Eggplant! I didn't pay attention to the channel name and then checked what other videos you posted. That was a slow moment for me.

I did hear the Beans Blues. ...I guess the beans should be spilled on the ground, then.

I also liked the aquarium idea. But now I'm curious, why would it be your ideal (Pricefield) date? Do you like ocean creatures a lot <><?

>>168335960
Yeah. I like the sea. The openness and mystery of it, and the creatures that live in it. Specifically all the awesome kinds of sharks.

So I'm kind of reflecting my own likes onto Max and Chloe in that small way. But I think they'd appreciate it too. Every aquarium I've been to has had really neat lighting ranging from bright and clear to dark or eve funky colors. Lots of good opportunities for Max to take shots. Plus Chloe can see some real sharks (Just think of a picture Max takes of Chloe, in a dimly lit area like what I assumed was a tank, looking through the glass in awe and gazing at some Sand Tiger shark or something).
Plus Max gets to see some cute stuff like Otters or maybe Penguins. Or just watching the Jellyfish gently hover and float in the water.
I think it'd be a good day for them.

That does sound like a great date.

It's sad then, that just like in Arcadia, the diversity of life in our oceans is dying off. I feel for all the beauty that's lost, coral reefs most prominently. One day, aquariums may be the only system in which we can see some of these creatures...

On a happier note, Max and Chloe are totally on a Valentine's Aquarium Date RIGHT NOW!

>>168337332
It is a serious problem but I think overall life in the Ocean will prevail. Biut that's not a topic very fitting for here so I'll leave it.

Maybe they are there now!
Also poor Max having to sit through Shark Week while Chloe sits glued to the screen whenever she's home during those days. Chloe makes it up by giving Max free pick for a few of their movie nights.

If /lisg/ is into games that make you feel sad, I would suggest Yakuza 0

I got misty eyed a few times, although it didn't leave me an emotional wreck like LiS did

Chloe is into science, and she likes water. And blue. And sharks. And the freedom of the great wide open ocean. Maybe she studies marine biology, and one day, she and Max go on a big trip. Max takes a course on marine photography during her studies, and they work together studying, researching and raising awareness, helping preserve oceanic wildlife from there on out!

Or something else entirely! They can do everything together, really.

>Not suggesting To the Moon and Steins;Gate

>>168339034
The (second) most badass Marine Biologist!
That would be a cool field for her to get into. But I ultimately see her ending up working as a social worker or counselor for teens that are in similar problems she used to be in.
But maybe marine stuff could be a hobby for her where she spends some time diving and Max photographing. It would allow them to have a boat.

Bare feet on grass in summer fields under the shade of a tree, reading a book. Some of the most peaceful moments of my life spent like that.

The only thing it's missing is Alice by the tree!

So I'm relatively new to the series and I have to admit, I came for the QT 3.14 girls, and stayed for the story. Just finished episode 2 and I must say, I disagree with the rap that the game is "Life is SJW" as the memers say. Yes, my main criticism of the game is the dialogue at times can be shoddy, though for the most part use of slang does add to the atmosphere's charm, and some plot devices seem cheap to me. I feel like I'm playing "Don't get murdered by Eliot Rodger" simulator.

>>168346919
That all being said, the game is charming and it makes you really care about some of the girls.

>>168346919
>>168347060
Reading your short intermezzo of a review was quite the wild ride.

Do finish the game, and come back to talk more if you want. Don't let the memers fool you, this game has a very special place in a lot of people's hearts. As do above all the characters. It is a wholly unique, touchingly intimate and valuable experience, and a well-crafted world, its enchanting atmosphere and intricate scenes, housing even more well-crafted characters, and an intriguing story, despite its flaws. It grows on you in ways you wouldn't believe.

Well, it does not grow close to everyone. And it's a personal experience altogether. And the finale evokes very different responses especially. You'll have to find out for yourself.

>>168347794
When Kate was standing on the roof I was pretty invested, I'm naturally a very protective kind of person, so seeing her distressed like that hit hard. I haven't felt that kind of way since I saw that one movie about the Dad living in the woods of Washington who took his kids to their mother's funeral against the wishes of his father-in-law.

>>168346713
Maybe Alice is IN the tree. Sitting on a branch and look out over the view. Occasionally peering down to see what her mother's up to.
When it's time to leave she'll scurry down so Kate can pick her up and they can go back home.

>>168346919
I never had much problems with the dialogue. It was silly but became sort of endearing. and it was consistent.
The only real issues I have are later on in the game . But I won't spoil anything.
Just pay attention and enjoy and the game!

>>168347949
These characters have a strange, rather un-video-game-like authenticity to them. "Even" Kate, despite her little screen time. It's easy to get endeared to them, and care about them.

The game obviously has a lot to offer, but the general now is mostly still around because people care about the characters, want to see them "live on" in a sense, which is what we do here, collectively summoning upon the game's, but most of all, its characters' spirits. So to say.

Now get out of here before you get spoiled! See you then, perhaps!

>>168347965
That is very possible. I'm not sure bunnies can climb trees, but I have this sneaky suspicion that Alice is secretly also Super Alice. As such, she can fly...

>>168346713
I wanna kiss Alice on her forehead and stroke her behind her ears until she falls asleep in my lap, then put her into her little bunny bed so very gently that she won't wake up!

Did Warren get Kate anything for Valentine's Day?

>>168352154
No, but he got Max a cringy Planet of Apes t shirt.

It's somewhere in the laundromats trash bin now

>>168348628
I don't know. Alice and Super Alice look entirely different.
Like Super Alice where's a mask, Alice does not. I always thought deep down Super Alice was Chloe.

>>168352591
*Planet of the Apes, fuck myselfie

>>168352591
Max would probably dig that kind of shirt, but it may be kind of weird to buy your friend something for Valentine's Day when she already has a girlfriend. Warren should buy Brooke something instead.

I can buy pretty much all of the "smaller" girls set. The voluptuous ones seem to deviate a bit though.

Though I kind-of like the idea of a thique Rachel (thanx love is strange), but it messes with the idea of her wanting to be a model a little.

>>168370808
This. As much as I like these images (thirsty af), it's a little odd how extreme they made some of the changes. Juliet is basically the same body as Alyssa? Rachel, a character who we're told has very similar measurements to Max, is so packing? Courtney's trunk?

Eh, it's not a big deal.

>>168371230
I see Rachel as someone with just a little bit more curves and muscle than Max. The Love is Strange images don't seem to be too far off from reality.
She works out a decent amount and gets jokingly pissed that Chloe barely has to do anything to keep her figure. Those Price genes are hella unfair.

Shame on it! Causing a storm and then making Max think she did it.

Been reading various fanfic, and was wondering if Max has a concrete characterisation that people can read and think "that's Max". Is it something beyond outwardly shy/w occasional Dad humour, shit taste in movies and seemingly able to shrug off unthinkable levels of emotional trauma and carry on?

She has an innocence, one might even say a naivete to her. It's so wonderfully pure and beautiful, matching that pale skin of hers that comes up so well in black and white shots, contrasting each and every freckle.

It conveys a special feeling, a need to not only corrupt but to make consciously aware of the corruption. Hear her voice crack and shed tears in desperation, knowing that there's absolutely nothing she can do, that her innocence then her life is going to end, but that she'll be immortalised forever as the greatest entry to date in my red folders.

If those are the limits of your character-reading skills, I don't think I'll be able to make you understand who "Max" is. If that is really all you see, well, I wonder why you are reading fanfiction to begin with.

These characters, and especially Max and Chloe, felt so distinct, authentic and unique to so many people, are so special and precious in so many people's minds, that they have been described as (and awarded for!) some of the most well-written characters in video games. Dontnod themselves have said some of the most extensive writing work went into pages upon pages of characterization on them. For Max specifically, there's an entire 146-page journal full of characterization substance. How many fictional characters have that, like, in the history of storytelling? Not many.

How brilliantly-written, of outstanding literary value, they exactly are as fictional entities, how they "compare" to the characterization depth of some of the great characters in literary history, is a different argument to have, and one that is also bound to have its own fair extent of subjectivity (I'd argue their authenticity and personal feeling is a great literary feat, and I have read a good share of literature generally considered "great") - but to have an as shallow understanding of them as you seem to have, is just lacking appreciation on your part I'm afraid.

>>168402351
Last I checked, she looked you in the eye and told you to go to hell, and it was your voice (and glasses and nose) that broke, once she had conquered you.

And later, it probably also broke your anal sphincter, as Alice smugly points out. Well, let's hope they put you with the "special" prisoners and not general prison population. You perhaps deserve physical abuse, not sexual.

Pretty arrogant reply to be honest, especially since Max's characterisation is intentionally vague to allow the player some scope to influence and imprint on her.

>Dontnod themselves have said some of the most extensive writing work went into pages upon pages of characterization on them.

After what he did at the end of the week, definitely. He killed Chloe, abducted Max and potentially Victoria, killing the latter and planning to kill Max too - after both had awoken to and experienced the horror of the Dark Room.

But, none of this happened. It's an interesting question how this potential criminal energy should make us reflect on his person in the ultimate reality in which Max always goes back (either to Thursday, or Monday), to bust Jefferson before any of that happened. Although it's possible he still killed Nathan (oh well...) and maybe abducted Victoria (unlikely), at this point, he had, as far as we know, not killed any of his victims, and more, none of them were even aware of what had happened. Even Kate is not on him. It was Nathan that drugged and abducted her, to get back in with Jefferson, only contacting Jefferson after he had taken her from the party. And she didn't (try to) kill herself because of the Dark Room experience - she didn't even know what exactly went down, thought maybe it was a hospital after all. It was the party incident that is the cause of it all, and again, for all we know and have to assume, that's on Nathan.

So, while he did terrible things to people in a terrible sense of self-importance, he did not completely disregard them, their safety and even emotional well-being, which is also obvious when he genuinely seems upset over what happened with both Kate and Rachel.

No amount of "regret" or "restraint" on his part absolves him of what he's done. He's just as responsible as Nathan is for Rachel's death. He never had to kidnap girls and purchase and underground bunker to create art. He's caused a tremendous amount of suffering and heartache for something as petty as a fetishistic indulgence.

>As reported by Polygon, Square Enix, DJ2 Entertainment and Legendary Digital (the guys behind the Dead Rising movies on Crackle) are planning to join forces to bring the beloved, yet tragic story of Max and Chloe to life in a live-action series. According to a post on the game's official Tumblr account, Life Is Strange will be a digital series, similar to the #Marvel shows found on #Netflix.

>Strange was to literally put players in Max's position, not just tell a story from her perspective. All of the major events and plot twists occur as a direct result of the players' choices - a story device exclusive to video games (and choose-your-own-adventure books) that cannot be replicated by movies and TV series at this time.

>Life Is Strange was lauded for making players pick between difficult, heartbreaking choices just to make the story progress, and this was no easy feat for the five-episode game to accomplish. Regardless, it will definitely be interesting to see how the chosen writers and filmmakers will translate the game's signature moral dilemmas to the small screen while doing justice to the popular source material.

>arrogant
Not more than the post I replied to is ignorant.

>some scope
Exactly, some. Which is on the one hand more nuance than significant characterization, and on the other, once that influence is established, she still becomes a distinct character within it. Just because she might be more vague of a character functionally in some respects than non-player-characters, doesn't mean she doesn't become distinct and fleshed-out as that character once played.

>What dontnod say isn't worth a fucking thing.
Are you implying they lied when they said a lot of work went into characterization? That's not an opinion they expressed, it is a statement of fact. Whether that characterization work paid off or how rich it is in the actual work, well, that would be the matter of argument I albeit don't feel like having with someone that sees so little to begin with, after actually experiencing the work.

>the response they received is universally positive.
It is. It is a commercial success all around the world, more so than was ever to be expected. It brought dontnod form the brink to a financially well-founded and well-respected studio that is now branching into like 4 different endeavours. It is a critical success; one of the best-rated games on Steam apparently, as I've recently read; one of the most-acclaimed title of the year and even the following. Winning multiple awards in multiple categories.

"Universally" might be a semantic issue (and neither do I have the quote, nor are they native speakers), but the response it garnered is overwhelmingly positive. But again, that one is simply a fact: they invested a lot of work into characterization.

That's simply false. The story and plot change nearly not at all, no matter the choices.

I've had a bad feeling about the movie from the second of its announcement, and there's enough reasons to feel bad about it just by virtue of it being a movie adaptation of what is already a highly cinematical experience, the history of such adaptations, and the history of that movie studio specifically. But that article is just an article - they don't know more than we do about the movie, so hold your horses for when the real horror of its reality hits sometime this year (and I mean, their story would generally be described as "tragic" no matter the outcome).

LiS was a pretty good game (except Episode 4's finale and Episode 5) but come on.. what's the point of turning a movie-like game into the live action? After they won a couple of rewards they became more and more money-grubbing. I have zero hope for this really it's gonna be a shit for sure.

>>168405718
I agree. I am not trying to absolve him of what he's done. Through his influence on Nathan, he indirectly caused a lot of suffering, and death. And probably for Nathan directly. And just because his victims didn't know what he did to them and where unconscious for it, doesn't mean he isn't still a monster for having done that to them.

The argument whether he is as responsible as Nathan for Rachel's (and potentially Kate's) death is another one to have. But in the end, he did not with his own hands kill anyone, that's erased (except maybe Nathan). Did not abuse anyone (except probably Nathan) in a fashion that affected them physically or mentally (at least as far as we have to assume; it's certainly possible some of his earlier victims did remember ~something~, or maybe were even conscious - but that's pure speculation and not in the game; game implication is they never knew a thing).

So whether he really "deserves" physical and sexual abuse, is not that obvious to me. I would "wish" some physical punishment on him too, I think. But that is also in light of events that did ultimately not take place. It's interesting to think about whether people can "deserve" punishment for something they could, but have not yet done. That goes into very philosophical areas of reasoning, but one simple example is one sometimes explored in fiction too: what if you have a time-travelling police force - can they convict people for things they will do in the future? And I would not wish sexual abuse upon him regardless.

>>168405491 >>168406760

>he genuinely seems upset over what happened with both Kate and Rachel.
It doesn't cover up his retardness and faults though.
I wish someone could punished him well. (who didn't become street fighter in 3 days;because I don't count that scene as punishment other than ''comedy movie'') However stupid developers really think their ''golden guy'' punished the biggest bully in the world(!) by disney-tier street fighting skills.

Great.I bet they are gonna choose the most incompatible actresses for Max and Chloe.

However I am also sure that their actor choice teenagers males especially for Warren and Nathan will be six pack man who are in their 26s just to make 14-17 years old fangirls happy (Be ready for arguing with ''the tornado was worse than Hiroshima and Nagasaki'' with this fandom)

Since they are saying ''player can shape the whole story'' they are gonna also screw the whole plot up.

Ohlala. That tan though.

Chloe is hanging outside the liquor store, with a twenty in hand.

She walks up to you and she says, "Yo, sister/bro. Could you go in and buy me a beer?"

>>168413529
"Sure. I'll help myself to one from your money too, though."

>>168413529

>>168415194
"I... may have had a disagreement with the owner. Or lost my wallet. Or both. I'll eat you out in the parking lot for payment, if you want, girl."

I think the worst, most mocking thing about the bay ending, is Max's smile; to force a smile on to a character that would be broken, destroyed and inconsolable because of the writer's values is abhorrent.

To also devalue the player's agony by displaying a cavalier smile of the "moral high ground", to ignore the actual emotion of the moment, to say that that's what we should feel... Frenchfuck should be murdered, brutally.

>>168419259
And now it's about to become the official ending haha:)

>>168419259
For some people, the sentiment of being able to let someone go and be ok, to look to the positives of the past, might be a nice thing to have included in a story... but this is not that story. At all. The smile doesn't fit and disagrees with fucking everything. At best, it's Michel's ":)" smile, in an almost mocking sense indeed; most reasonably, it's a mad smile. A smile for the insanity of the situation. An about-to-murder-frenchfucks smile.

But if it is not your ending, it does have to exist for your story, and theirs.

>>168419956
The live-action series is about as far from being canonically relevant as... I can't actually come up with a witty comparison right now.

It's not relevant. It holds no significance for the game. In as much as dontnod is hardly even involved with it, and they are employing completely different writers, it's fanfiction-tier.

Some other hungry Pricefields instead.

I doubt the series will ever actually be a thing. They will start filming, realize it's going terrible because the story and character do not transfer well into this form, and then drop it.

And it seems like we wouldn't be missing a thing if it's just going to copy the story near word for word, with the same inconsistencies and crap ending. Especially if they plan on ending it with Chloe dying.
Unless they create their own ending or go with saving Chloe to show the after effects of everything, I am not interested.

I guess if they're that far into it.
At least Dontnod isn't going to lose money off it. I cannot see the series being worth much unless they do something original with it.
Otherwise they're just copying the story everyone has seen and they're going to immediately alienate rough half of the players. As I said, I don't want to watch if it has the Bay ending and I think others who chose to save Chloe would feel the same.

The game let us choose what we see, the series cannot unless they put in a lot of effort to make it like these old CYOA games that used to appear on YouTube via the annotations. Only other options are to create an original ending (Which will probably be just as inconsistent or end the series right at the final choice with Max holding the photo deciding what to do.)

Then there's the whole topic of the actors/actresses but we can't talk about that until we have info.

Yeah, there's a lot to be said about the various ways in which it can, and very likely will fail. I'm just in a mildly excited state to see just how bad it will fail.

Honestly, if possible, I will stream it for /lisg/ and we can all talk about it and make fun of it.

>some of the depth and overall quality was lost with the coloring and kind of flat background
True. Another weird thing I just noticed (in both sketch and colored version) is the weird area under Max's jaw, between their necks. It's just a void. A blue void, in the colored version.

She's hungry!

Oh god! Cannot unsee! That's unfortunate and the artist could have fixed it with like one more line and the color of her shirt. That's a pretty big oversight. Kind of funny.

And in fairness I'm keeping my expectations low for the series because I haven't seen a reason to get hyped (yet). Then we can mock it or just ignore its existence. Maybe by some miracle it will end up being decent. We can pass that judgement if we decide to watch it.

>>168426260
I'd welcome that miracle.

Would be cool either way to watch it with /lisg/. The chat could be funny and interesting whether it's comically bad or miraculously good.

>>168427234
Whenever the *totally real* /lisg/ meetup occurs we can show it on a projector in someone's backyard and dress up like our favorite characters.

Though we all know Max would save Chloe (duh.) and then use another photo to go back and find a way to warn more people earlier on.
But as long as Chloe is safe - Max has achieved her priority.

Until then, I'll be looking to stream it!

The only thing we know is that it's going to be released episodically, on the web. Not sure of the specifics, like how we buy it and stuff, but streaming for the handful of people that will tune in from here should work.

>>168439041
It's not that, it's the persistent affiliation of this thread to over-present the characters in a cute or infantile way, in art syle, scenarios, and conversation.

There's hardly any representation of them in actual mature scenarios.

>>168438231
>>168439395
We're just being silly. Chloe calls Max cute multiple times in the game. And they are totally silly and playful like that, especially with each other. And would remain being romantically playful, silly, and dorks until they die of old age by each other's side.

You are often outright waifufagging, and worse. Go back to your "actual mature scenarios" like pretending Chloe eats stranger's pussies in parking lots to get beer. Totally not creepy.

If you don't like being silly and cuteposting, consider leaving, grumpy ass killjoy.

We talk plenty about mature scenarios and aspects of the characters. If it's too disproportionate for you, why don't you ignite more such talk instead of calling people creepy and unsettling? Your sexualization of Chloe is more objectifying than cuteposting will ever be.

>>168439973

>>168439395

>>168439973
It's not the cute interactions that bother me, it's the other shit I mentioned.

I don't remember waifufagging, and that Chloe scenario wasn't trying to be mature, it was an absurdist joke. I don't think she'd actually do that.

>>168440438
Nice meme, but don't decide that this thread is automatically of a standard to a certain taste. and that people should leave instead of adding to it, you twat.

I can do realistic Pricefield too, but there's no topic going on to really apply it to currently.
The essence of their relationship is they're there for each other. It's not one holding everything together or keeping the other from becoming a useless mess, they are both strong.
They're together when being dorky and having fun, they're together when just going out on a date, and they're together during the rougher moments like when one wakes up in the middle of the night about to scream because of the nightmare they were just having.

>>168441053
Of course, I think this thread is incredibly good at realistic Pricefield discussion- I'm not dismissing it at all.

I have an inkling that Chloe does lean on Max for support much more than the opposite.

>>168440450
And absurdist joke, ah, but us being silly and comfy is totally being serious and objectifying the characters, we actually think they are cats and chibis and whatnot...

When do you talk about mature scenarios, then? I know you do, but not nearly with any frequency to justify that negativity.

And I repeat: we do talk about serious, mature stuff. Plenty. Even plenty mature art and scenarios. I posted aggressively sexy Pricefield stuff just a few hours ago. Obviously not with quite the same frequency, but hey, that's just what this is.

As for your waifufagging, don't pretend you aren't totally infatuated with Chloe, and communicate as much - veiledly or outright - in the threads, sometimes. And nobody gives you that kind of shit for it.

I do know this thread is excellent with serious discussion, that's why I want more of it, and I contribute when I'm in the mood.

Which posts have I expressed infatuation in? Infatuation isn't really the same as waifufagging, really.

>>168442538
Thing is, we've been here for two years. We've gone through discussions and analysis's about each of the characters, episodes, endings, what would've/should've/could've happened, etc, in nearly every single thread. The only time that we all really get serious and analytical again is when /v/irgins and bayfags ask why we all love bae, or why we "sacrificed" AB, or something like that.

We're still alive than a lot of generals for more popular games, sometimes I just want to talk and post about my favorite characters.

>you revel in the cuteness
Cuteness is comfy, fun and easy. It keeps the threads going - always has, but now all the more.

As you, I am also grateful for the more serious stuff that pops up in-between that, and would absolutely want more of it... but it is more difficult and takes time and to be in the mood, to come up with and discuss those topics. Not least because we've touched on them so often and exhaustively already. You yourself that outright dislikes the amount of cute stuff do not regularly bother to introduce serious and mature topics or scenarios into the thread yourself. And with regards to Pricefield-posting specifically, there's only few people talking about it, creating scenarios, and posting art to begin with.

You have expressed that infatuation plenty of times, in one way or another. More so in the past, but it'd be disingenuous of you to pretend a large amount of your posts didn't revolve around Chloe. It's not the same as waifufagging, but sometimes it expresses itself in the same way.

I can understand and even sympathize to an extent with your being upset with the disproportional amount of content you come here for. But not only is the alternative that we die, but calling it and indirectly the people creepy and saying they are doing the characters wrong, is just being a condescending ass.

>>168444023

Besides, look at the fucking post culture. Infantilization is "Anime"'s second name. That's its entire schtick. But this thread is unbearable?

>but we don't.
Yes we do. It's either that to keep the threads going, or they die. I know, because I am one of the, and who am I kidding, simply the main contributor of stuff that keeps the threads afloat. Much of it is easy, simple, non-thought-provoking stuff. A fair share is also more serious. But people hardly ever respond to it.

Again, even you that outright dislikes cute stuff and wants more serious stuff, do hardly contribute. In fact, you never contribute art at all, for one thing, do you? But the thread could stay afloat with us all being all serious, even though it's not even many people that do the silly easy stuff?

>I don't think my posts are objectifying or waifuist
Me neither. That's why even though it goes in that direction sometimes (sexualization is more objectifying than cute-yfization, in my mind; communicating your infatuation with a character is at least as waifuist as communicating their cuteness), I don't give you shit for it. But you did give others shit.

>I'm just scared people will value these characters as caricaturist "cute" expressions of comfy fantasy.
And that is condescension, because you imply we don't get the characters on deeper levels, don't appreciate them and the game more profoundly than the cute stuff. That's nonsense. We are /lisg/. We are not so many people, and we've always had stuff here that goes in depth and detail, realistically and maturely deals with aspects of narrative and characters, in all discussion, scenarios and art. "We" appreciate and value them on way more sophisticated levels, and the cute stuff doesn't take away from that.

Michel smells...

>>168447079
I don't contribute to serious stuff as much as I did a few months ago. I've a few regular serious discussers who I know and talk with, but I can't post art because I'm on a device that is unable. My PC broke, ree.

It's perfectly reasonable that, in time, the older posters will filter out and give way to the new posters who have found the game primarily through love of cute.

>>168448223
Awful!

>>168447079
> I know, because I am one of the, and who am I kidding, simply the main contributor of stuff that keeps the threads afloat. Much of it is easy, simple, non-thought-provoking stuff.

Oh n-no! Is it really mostly you behind all those? I kinda hoped it was many people. Now I feel we're really hanging by a thread ;_;

>>168448227
>found the game primarily through love of cute
No. People find this general through having played the game and it having had a lasting impact on them that makes them want to talk about it. If you are genuinely scared people that play this game and don't get it beyond finding the girls cute, will find their way here and stay because of the cuteposting, I can assure you that fear is not justified. Neither is the idea that the exisiting cuteposting means we don't love the game on deeper levels, intellectually, sentimentally, emotionally. You should rather be scared that we die altogether, and /lisg/ is gone.

Again, I do sympathize with wanting more serious stuff, feeling that lack of people that share their investment in and relation to the game, its characters and stuff, in sentimentally or intellectually more sophisticated fashion. I have no idea why so little of the new people don't want to do that. I'd want to spill my heart, soul and mind out if I were new here.

I have always engaged in serious, lengthy discussion and encouraged it. It just doesn't happen so much anymore, after all this time. But it does still happen, every single thread. And while the ratio is skewed, mature and serious scenarios and talk about the characters and their relationship do also still happen. I do not sympathize with the sentiment that it's creepy and objectifying what we do here to have some comfy, silly fun and keep the thread going. It's insulting and needlessly grumpy. My suggestion would be: talk about serious stuff instead of giving people shit for not doing so. If there are interesting, serious things to talk about, people will join in. I will, at the very least.

>>168449619
I'm afraid it is so.

I AM only one of 60 or so people, at the end of it, so it's not all so bad. But I am definitely posting a lot of the art, almost all of the new art, and would not at all be surprised if I were also by far the most active poster in terms of post count over the last months.

Pricefield is the worst pairing in this game.

>>168450514
>so little of the new people don't want to do that
*so little of the new people want to do that

And actually, same goes for older posters. I've been around for quite a while, and sure, I might be particularly crazy and have a little too much PC time on my hands at this current period of my life (had a few months of going hermit mode working towards taking my first exam, which I just finished earlier this year), but there's only few other people at all interested in talking about the game anymore.

I mean, that's ok. Maybe the magic is gone for them, they aren't so invested, just have no real motivation to talk about it anymore. But what they are still here for then is a mystery to me. I like cute, silly, comfy stuff, a lot - but even I wouldn't stick around for just that. If I didn't still want to talk about the game and had that spark then and again, I can't help but see myself just not wanting to do much with it at all anymore. Let alone if I weren't invested enough anymore to even just post at least semi-frequently. Hell, if I wasn't so crazy about Max and Chloe's relationship that it's, pathetically, practically become a sort of surrogate for my love life, I wouldn't want to.

Gallery showing just ended, Chloe had made a surprise appearance getting off from work a little earlier. They sit outside, talking about their day. Max was also a little cold in her dress, so Chloe threw her leather jacket over her shoulders.

Max is teasing Chloe about the latter's inability to keep her eyes (and hands) away from her in the dress throughout the event.

Max must get a little tired shaking hands, talking to people, and answering questions about her work. Nice that Chloe showed up to calm her down and cheer her up.
A lot of people familiar with Max's work already know who Chloe is to her so to see the both of them is cool.

Always good to see stuff from them. That sweater's nice.
