Idiots that don't know how sage is used on 4chan. It's used so that you can insult a thread without bringing it back up to the top to look at it immediately after posting. Since Anonymous isn't very creative, often times the only insult he can come up with is simply the fact that he wants to say something, but can't think of anything, hence he points out that he is saging.

It was also of much greater use when the bump limit was smaller and threads were deleted based on age, not popularity. The idea was you brought a thread closer to its bump limit, hence closer to disappearing from the front page. When moot changed the workings of 4chan, the habit just didn't die. Quite frankly I think it's a good mechanism for /jp/ to show normalfags that they need to stay the fuck away, because there are too few normalfags to keep a thread alive against being saged.

Its development has been a clusterfuck. Drama has plagued the development team since the very first stickied thread on 4chan. I've lost count of team members that where either thrown off or usurped of their positions. Drama does make for a good indie game.

Also, the game is seriously far too long for its own good; the team is biting off way more than they can chew. Combine that with the fact that there isn't a speck of originality in this game, and you're bound to end up with something mediocre.

The music is also terrible, but that is nothing new for OELVNs. There is nothing that can be done for that.

I'm not gonna even get into how the same 3-4 people from the game's forums keep making threads here. It's like Shrinemaiden.org/beast's lair again back in old /a/.

>> No.1264490

>>1264466
How can you be sure it isn't original at all? There hasn't been a playable release since that alpha that got leaked since way long ago, and that was only a small fraction of the game. In truth NO ONE know what's going to happen or how good it will be, people just want to be downers.

Does it take that much effort to make a halfway original plot (for a VN, at least) and decent, catchy music? If they're going to do this to completion, they should do it right or drop it entirely.

can't you all just pretend to support the poor guys? or at least ignore them. of course the game will be a novelty at best, it's stupid to expect otherwise. but quit pissing on their parade, they're trying at least.

sage is traditionally used for:

Posts that are off topic in a thread (so you don't bump an older thread with off-topic shit nobody cares about)

On 4chan it's used for:

Showing a strong dislike for a thread. It's generally pointless, almost always someone bumps the fucking thread back up.

Like me, for example.

If you ask me the only thing shit with the VN is that they use photos as backdrops. Nothing looks so poor as mixing art with photos.

Every single person here will download it regardless of the vitrol, so what is with all the hate? Yeah, okay, we understand. It's probably just going to be a rehash of the same old tropes and have shitty writing and a shitty plot. I get it. Hell, I'm fairly sure you're right.

By giving support to this project we're merely giving the impression that it's worthwhile for other Anons to put effort into creativity for the community.

Anything by weeaboo Anon would likely to be classified as masterpieces compared to the rage inducing OEL junk we have so far. Who knows, we might actually see something truly Epic in the future.

This is a really good point
OELVNs are pretty much fucking terrible; Katawa Shoujo might not be good or even decent by normal VN standards but it will probably blow 99% of other OELVNs out of the water
I mean the character art alone looks like the best I've seen in an OELVN from what I've seen in this thread
It would be nice if they got a background artist though
