Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
Of course, the engine's there. It's more the problem of providing the artwork/original sound/music. Writing's less of a problem, because generally anyone can write (of course with varying degree of quality). Even the artist can force some writing out if necessary.
More importantly, someone has to take the lead by contributing and organizing in such projects.

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
Okay, here's a sample Bad End that you get if you let Nerdo die on her route against Rogue 7 to create an opening for his destruction, which you fail at and die.
*player's dead corpse hangs from the ceiling*
BAAA- KAAAAAAA!
DAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKKA-
*smoldering pile of ash*
Yoou fooool! You pathetic excuse for a human being! Abandoning your true love to kill you enemy? WHAT SORT OF LAME EXCUSE FOR A HERO ARE YOU?!
No, stop. Do not even try to say, "But it's the practical, smart thing to do! Who are you to lecture me, you jerk?" What are you, the damn villain? I'm not the one in charge of saving the world. People like you make me wonder why Lurker never got her path.
Lurker: Does that mean I'll get my path back?
*slap*
Be quiet, or I'll make you scrub the giant hourglass with your own tongue, assistant.
Lurker: *whimper*
That's a good Sacchin.
Rogue 7: Hey, get your hands off of her, and why the he** am I her- *fwoosh* AAAAHHH, I'M BURNING!
Shut up.
I have nothing left to say to such trash. Just... just go back and fix what you did. And you better not come back here the same way, or Lurker gets a new playmate.
I need aspirin. Where's my aspirin? How can the play possibly be playing if the lead actor doesn't even know his lines?Last edited by Lord of Rapture; 2009-09-07 at 05:29 AM.

Of course not. It's just that we hold ourselves so far above such ridiculous puns that they don't even enter our mental airspace.

I can colour any art you chuck my way, but I can't draw. I can probably check for grammar mistakes and whatnot, whatever that's called these days...Editing or something, I dunno.

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
Sensible and facepalming mission control? I guess it makes sense that my female version is a total opposite of me.
Also, Tengu needs to be an ill girl. That's an important part of my characterization.

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
Hmm...veeery interesting....
I quite like the idea of a forum Pbp-style VN. I'll scout out some music and background pictures.
To facilitate a few things, I'd like some input on:
1) Style of mecha. Judging from Fri's dream, it looks like we're gonna have a combining humongous mecha, made up of several, or many, smaller robots. Any more details on that? Like, are the smaller mecha lions or chipmunks or just humanoid robots or what? And what sort of weapons will we be using?
Also, science-wise, how hard do you guys want the setting to be? Keep in mind that there are going to be 3 routes: the first generally light and fluffy, the second realistic and cynical, the third utterly depressing and maddening.
2) Setting. It looks like we're going to be set in some school (preferably a mix of Japanese and Western style school), but where? On Earth? Elsewhere? In SPACE, even?
3) Who are we fighting? Fri's dream mentioned something about Lovecraftian horrors--if that's the case, the primary human antagonists could be a cult that gained power and became a mighty empire, dedicated towards the cause of the Elder Evils (yes, Rogue, so on top of being an arrogant, hammy evil general, you're also a flaming cultist.) Do you guys have any other ideas?
4) For the people who have character avatars: please post a summary of your online persona. I won't be able to follow it to the letter, but it'll give me an idea on which I can base your characters on. Your online persona description doesn't have to be necessarily accurate, either.
Also, Nerdo and Fri seem to think that Nerdo and Tengu ought to be switched. What say you?

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
Wow. I think I'm one of the few people who got an adaptation displacement/distillation of his own dream. So don't mind my dream too much. But yeah, it's humanoid in my dream, though it's more super robot-ish.
Ever watch the 'vehicle voltron'? In my dream, that's what our mech looks like, but an eva-ish mech work better here.
Dunno what that should make me feel.
And I don't know about tengu and nerdo role, it's up to you, but tengu should be as she.. I mean he said, ill girl. And his VN persona should be The Wonka/a bit cloudcuckoolander/something in that line. and in real life, tengu and cubey are real life brothers. that's why I propose the twincest route.Last edited by Fri; 2009-09-07 at 09:12 AM.

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
Mecha: humanoid please. A hybrid of Eva and Knightmare should do nicely.
I'd find it more amusing to see what others come up with based on their impressions of me. But since my avatar shows multiple characters, I suggest you use the angry Kagami one if you want an image.

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
It'd be awesome if, one day in the far future, our idea is made into an anime. That'd be sweet.
I'd say it should take place in outer space, due to the fact there are Lovecraftian horrors in the setting, and it would be cool if you could fight one in outer space with a giant mech. Also, I'm one of the long imprisoned horrors the antagonists released in hopes of using my powers to take over the world, but I'm the wild card in the situation, helping out both sides to make sure nobody wins so I can watch them kill each other forever.Kyonko avatar by Elder Tsofu.

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
1) Style of mecha. I vote for the Eva-ish ones. That way, if/when someone dies, it's not like "oh noes, we can never form the giant robot again!", it's "oh noes, I have no backup!".
2) Setting. IN SPACE! IN A SCHOOL! WITH A BOX OF-wait, never mind.
3) Who are we fighting? I like the "Elder Evil cult" concept.
4) For the people who have character avatars: please post a summary of your online persona. I won't be able to follow it to the letter, but it'll give me an idea on which I can base your characters on. Your online persona description doesn't have to be necessarily accurate, either.
This, I'll do later.

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
Here's my input: don't take the novel too seriously. Go wild! Put everything in that looked like a good idea at the time. Overload tropes and throw a cliche here and there if you feel like it. Remember the dating sim Yuki created in last episodes of Haruhi-chan? We should aim for something like that.

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
And i am saddened that in a cast with this many female characters, the one girl in the actual thread isn't in there. I know that i am not the most talkative person around, usually because i feel i have nothing to add, but i always read it and keep up. So know that even if i don't say anything i am always watching. Ohohohohohoooo...
Also if Tengu is in there we absolutely and unconditionally need Cubey. Those two are a pair and can't just be separated like that.

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
Then post your online persona and you'll be included. At the moment, we could use a quiet Yamato Nadeshiko type.
On Tengu: the trouble with Tengu being a ditzy ill girl is that Tengu will no longer eligible for being the exasperated, "you knucklehead!" type of commander. That role will have to go to someone else, I'm afraid.
...maybe Nerdo? As a compromise for the whole switch-Nerdo-and-Kami around thing.
Edit: which episode was the Yuki's Dating Sim thing? I haven't seen Haruhi, you see.Last edited by 13_CBS; 2009-09-07 at 09:41 AM.

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
Not Haruhi, Haruhi-chan - the chibi web shorts. It's in the final one.
I'm entirely serious. Why should you be the only one not to be genderswapped? Except for the obvious reason that all genderswapping tends to keep females female once they get that way.

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
Very well. Nerdo and Tengu shall be swapped, but their characters shall remain the same.
Nerdo: the tsundere mission control commander, and...
Tengu: the ditzy ill-girl who becomes one of the heroines. Like the hero, she also has a brother who, surprise, is not related to her by blood (Cubey). In keeping with the old "pair the spares" trope, in Tengu's route Kamikasei and Cubey will hook up. In the darker routes, however...
Edit: Also, since Closet Skeleton's going to be a female kuudere bridge bunny, Terra's still got someone to pair up with.
Edit 2: It looks like the current trend is toward smaller humanoid mecha combining to form a bigger one. How about Arm Slave sized smaller mecha/powered armor being the constituents of the bigger mecha?Last edited by 13_CBS; 2009-09-07 at 09:53 AM.

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
Hey now. I've not been gender-swapped, thank you kindly. I can stay that way, too. Non-gender-swapped, that is.
And I'm torn on the plugsuit issue. Maybe if I'm guaranteed a black one with yellow highlights?

Re: The GiantitpAnime Fans' Visual Novel
Which is fine with me. The leads in visual novels tend to be incredibly dull people i wouldn't want to date even if i were straight. And that is supposing that they aren't like Shirou.
As for my online persona, apart from the rather firmly defined lesbianism that Cubey mentioned, i got a few answers from talking to people. One thing they keep mentioning is the way i want answers to most things going on around me and can apparently be rather forceful in my attempts to get them. I also tend to have strong views about things i care about and be willing to expound at length about them, in reality that is politics but it should probably be shifted to something more general in the VN. I also tend to have expensive tastes, something that gets accentuated online where i only talk about things i like, rather than about all the boring little daily necessities.
Sloppiness, laziness and a constant tendency to infodump at the slightest provocation. At least online, i tend to take things entirely too seriously too and speak so formally and controlledly that my feelings are hard to make out, until they start running loose...In general i am just crazy, online it seems.
And Kami, being male is the one joke i don't want made about me. There are a few touchy things in that respect.
