  1.  
  2. (15:42:33) %RapeApe9k: >VNs and doujinsoft
  3. (15:42:38) %RapeApe9k: expand upong that please
  4. (15:42:41) %RapeApe9k: *upon
  5. (15:42:54) +Sange: Well, it's the other stuff that's currently a core part of /jp/
  6. (15:43:01) +Sange: Although they could just go to /vg/ now
  7. (15:43:10) +Deckenkatze: /vj/ - rape simulators
  8. (15:43:14) +AoC: Visual Novels, both translated and untranslated. Perhaps OELVN as well and provide a single nexus for all
  9. (15:43:33) +AoC: instead of forcing a wall between /vg/ and /jp/
  10. [...]
  11. (15:43:55) %RapeApe9k: AoC: is there a word that could summarize all that content.
  12. [...]
  13. (15:44:21) %RapeApe9k: treat me as if i don't know jack shit about this
  14. (15:44:26) +Sange: Doujinsoft is basically indie Japanese software, and VNs are commonly called "dating sims"
  15. (15:45:17) +Azatsu: VN, Visual Novel, a type of game where you scroll through texts, take choices and these choices will determine the end of the game
  16. (15:45:22) +AoC: well, Visual Novel does indeed cover every single game that is narrative heavy and dependent on player choice.
  17. (15:45:39) +AoC: some would say that The Walking Dead game is a VN as it is
  18. (15:45:47) +AoC: along with Phoenix Wright
  19. (15:45:48) +Azatsu: It features 2D anime style, with the dialogue usally being displayed in a dialogue box below the scenario and/or character
  20. (15:46:04) +fsdfdsf: Also rape
  21. (15:46:05) +Azatsu: It usually features porn, but not always porn is the main atractive of the game
  22. (15:46:09) +Sange: That's the gist of it if we are not to go into specifics
  23. (15:46:18) %RapeApe9k: OK, so a place for both Japanese and English visually oriented, narrative heavy storytelling.
  24. (15:46:37) +Sange: I think having OELVNs there would be a terrible idea
  25. (15:46:41) +Sange: they're already fine on /vg/
  26. (15:46:47) +Azatsu: OELVNs aren't big enough
  27. (15:47:11) +Azatsu: they are mostly (if not almost all) made by amateur groups, whereas there are thousands of VN companies in Japan
  28. (15:47:18) %RapeApe9k: but Sange, just VNs would be taking a part of an already tiny board, and making a full board out of it
  29. (15:47:50) +Sange: RapeApe, this last board would just be /jp/ without the random and Touhou threads, basically
  30. (15:47:53) +Azatsu: There are VN communities in /a/, /jp/, /u/, /v/, /m/, and /vg/
  31. (15:48:10) +AoC: that's why I proposed adding the /vg/ community to it. Otherwise we could skip /vn/ altogether and ask the current /jp/ community to make a couple generals there
  32. (15:48:19) +AoC: since they're already focused in 2 threads now
  33. (15:48:37) +Sange: Yeah, the last board is not actually needed since /vg/
  34. (15:48:43) +AoC: OR
  35. (15:48:52) +AoC: we could expand even more and make /cyoa/
  36. (15:48:55) +Azatsu: Touhou also has a very big following in /a/, /u/, /v/, and obviously /jp/
  37. (15:48:59) %RapeApe9k: which is what i was getting at, AoC
  38. (15:49:05) %RapeApe9k: two birds, etc
  39. (15:49:09) +AoC: and take in /tg/ Quests and other writefag threads in other boards
  40. (15:49:44) %RapeApe9k: so we are taking content with similar themes from multiple boards, and forging one board
  41. (15:49:49) +Sange: The /jp/ VN posters would just move to /vg/ in that case, though
  42. (15:49:51) +AoC: I'm aware there's not much of a user overlap right now
  43. (15:49:59) ยป @invisibro is now known as @invisibro_away
  44. (15:50:11) +Azatsu: Eh, I think a /vn/ board COULD work, but /vg/ works too I guess
  45. (15:50:14) %RapeApe9k: that's fine. an entirely new community would be desirable
  46. (15:50:35) +AoC: There's also the concept of /dg/ - Doujin/Games
  47. (15:50:45) +Kazisho: Seriously, while having /vn/ or /th/ would be very nice I'd like to see /nij/ instead so /jp/ can be all clean with a range of topics.
  48. (15:51:25) %RapeApe9k: what is nijiura?
  49. (15:51:32) +Kazisho: Random board on Futaba.
  50. [...]
  51. (16:06:40) +Sange: Where would Idol shit go in case /jp/ was split into those boards? they can't go on /vg/ unlike doujinsoft and vns
  52. (16:07:14) +Azatsu: I'm still not really fond of just kicking other topics to /vg/
  53. (16:07:19) +Kazisho: Just put them on /v/ and kill all shitposting.
  54. (16:07:35) +Sange: I mean
  55. (16:07:39) +Sange: Real idols
  56. (16:07:44) +Azatsu: I'll kill you and throw your body there
  57. (16:07:51) +BluRay: lol
