We mustn't offend the all powerful NPCs!

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

Political topics are still banned. Report threads and they will be deleted.

a long time ago on rpanons i remember seeing someone describe an anime as "black lagoon but actually good" and being interested in it. now for the life of me i can't remember what show that was called.

any guesses?

So! Probably too late as new post is imminent, but... I've got this Saitama that needs voicetesting, and an [o]very[ly] active Genos muse [personal profile] scrap_metal

I'm open with either character for some museboxing/PSLing, meme'ing, and who knows, possibly some game'ing too (in Saitama's case, I'd prefer some voice testing first).
Hilarious hijinks, AUs, plotty stuff, and shipping are all welcome. I'm a shipping trash, there is no lie.

this is a fascinating attempt at revisionism. someone makes a point you finally can't come up with any dispute for, and your last ditch attempt to win is to claim that there was never any argument at all and they are just "projecting"

I mean it's not true, but it's still a fascinating tactic

sorry if it's not terribly comfortable to have it pointed out to you that your own western biases have shown through to others even when you can't (or won't) see them yourself. when people smell you stinking it doesn't make it projection just because you don't smell yourself

Well shit me, anon. I guess the voices in this ~single anthology~ don't count as real enough voices for you because you can't get instant click confirmation. You are all the worst kinds of cultural fetishists who love Japan's difference only as far as it can either be easily understood in western terms or cutely packaged up so you can have your bentō box and wear your "call me senpai" shirt.

And ps. just because someone provides a link does not mean it is credible. That's like sourcing 101 and the links above? The fact you (and other anons) think it's a credible source speaks laughable volumes.

Re: dda

(Anonymous) 2017-04-15 08:31 am (UTC)(link)
to be fair, the links given in this thread have really been a mixed bag. there are links to reputable sources mixed in with posts from undergraduate student blogs and, as is typical for anons, no distinction is being made between those

a few are credible, several are not, and not coincidentally the credible ones are the ones that don't actually support the argument the anon linking them is claiming that they do

Hello!! I've got Yusuke here, and I have accounts for Goro and Morgana as well.

Hit me up if you want to do stuff! I have completed the game so I'm cool with spoilers.

with reserves opening monday, will there be a new test drive or use the old one?

what advice is there for making game memories so that they don't conflict with anyone existing in the game or coming in later from a canon?

i can't come up with an argument for it because the thing you claim happened in this thread didn't happen.

Re: dda

well, for one, you didn't actually link any of those voices. you linked a book, that people have to buy, for content that may or may not be included. btw, i happen to own that book, and i could call you out on deliberately misinterpreting what's in it, but eh, why bother. everything about how you're deciding to argue your point proves you've already drawn a conclusion about the people you're arguing against. you think everyone you're talking to is a defensive weeb. you won't even believe the people telling you they actually have firsthand experience. which, fine, we're all anons here, but idk why you think your geicomi weebery is any more sharp a logical sword.

also, idk why you think the japan times isn't a credible source. like the other links are referencing interviews and research of first hand accounts, so maybe you can dispute those, but the japan times is literally first hand source of japanese perspectives and both of the articles linked disagree with your position.

and for the record, the positions here are "representation doesn't matter in japan" vs "it does".

Hey there. I'm still in the middle of voice-testing but I'm offering a Galen Erso.

I'm looking for --

Small / Medium Sized Game
Slow to Moderate Pace
Fantasy, Horror, and Sci Fi are preferred genres, smut is fine
Easy AC

I can't deny I'd prefer a game with a Rogue One cast.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Mobile so forgive any typos but...

I fell hard for Ann and I'm still working through the game but - I got a while to go. :c I'll be throwing Ann around memes idly until around July and then try to find a game for her. If I maintain my patience tbh.

"Japanese LGBT people don't care about representation!"
anons provide several links, either first hand sources or curated first hand sources, that disagree, some of which were curated by an actual japanese news publication (japan times is english language, but it's still japanese).
"WELL THIS SINGLE SOURCE CURATED BY WESTER GEICOMI ENTHUSIASTS BACKS ME UP SO SHUT UP"
everyone sighs and shakes their heads.

like no one argued that japanese queer people were a monolith with one single opinion on the importance of representation. western queer people can't even all agree on the importance of representation, or to what degree it is important. but all of this anon's points want to argue that they don't care about it, and when confronted with the possibility they do, they scream "NUH UH, SOME OF THE DUDES IN THIS ANTHOLOGY SAID SO" like... no shit.

i'd wait. like, maybe a few months at least. right now it's impossible to get that damn thing. no matter what time you log in someone's camped there, and i don't know about anyone else but i'm not in the habit of stealing tames from someone who's already there.
