All I really want right now is a Kickstarter that somehow results in my never having to hear about feminism interacting with video games ever again.

I think that was a Mac. But yeah, zero content and only a short, awkward unprepared statement. And people are upping their pledges because of it. It's scary to think what this guy will actually do with a quarter million dollars.

You know what would be fun? Convincing people you know with questionable artistic talents to start a Kickstarter/IndieGoGo and seeing how much they make. I might give it a shot later.

Based on the FAQ it looks like they're making a "clean" and an "adult" version, and are skirting around Kickstarter's rules against adult content by saying they'll only spend the money on the nonadult stuff, which will be used in both versions of the game and seems rather shakey to me.

Also, isn't Monster Girl Quest supposed to be a really disgusting/disturbing game?

Monster girls are a perfectly legitimate fetish!

Funny, after years of playing Nintendo VirtualBoy, I settled lying it on my face like this as the most comfortable position.. The normal way they suggest leads to terrible neck strain.

How could you have been playing a virtual boy for years? It gives you terrible headaches after five minutes of use and had nogames.

Why would you do that to yourself?

I'm just going to chock this one up to being a remarkably poor decision on Kickstarter's part because of the current state of gender politics and the loads of money being dangled in front of their noses, and hope they keep enabling long dead vidya franchises to claw their way back from the grave inch by grisly inch without doing this sort of thing too often in the future.

The "OELVNs that aren't complete garbage" category is pretty much just OMGWTFOTL and Katawa Shoujo. And that second one is about finding true love at a school for disabled children.

Some do, some don't. It really varies. You could probably make a business on importing and then direct mailing officially licensed stuff from Japan. I doubt a storefront would do too well.

The Alphasmart, or the Freewrite? Because I use an Alphasmart every day and I literally make my living off the Kindle store, although you've probably never read anything I've written unless you're into smut or cheesy romance novels.

Also this should probably go over in the video game Kickstarter thread, but the people behind cancelled horror game Alison Road finally put their "statement" up on Facebook. It's a paragraph long and contains nothing but platitudes. As a reminder, don't ever back a video game on Kickstarter unless the people doing it have a string of hits behind them, and even then it's 50/50.

Not to continue the anime derail, but as someone of underdeveloped feminine form and frequently mistaken for underage, for the love of god stop loving virtue signaling about japanese illustrations you don't like protraying people of loving youth.

It's like you're projecting your shame at liking the real thing (youthful women) and turning up the diarrhea dial to compare it to crypto-pedophilia. I'm so loving sick of this poo poo. I don't even like anime, I'm just sick of flirting with dudes and them getting scared when they find out my tits are small and I wear Juniors sizes because you keep shaming them for it.

Is virtue signaling just how you say holier than thou in 2016?

(Personal question, but what do you do if you need formal wear, or, y'know, anything that projects a more mature image than what you can find in the junior section?)
