Don't take it personally, babe, it just ain't your story
« on: April 14, 2011, 10:28:07 pm »

Yes that is the title of the game I just got playing through it, and although I know there's a whole buttload of visual novels out there, but I thought this one was worth sharing. This one struck me as being pretty good... and not about having sex.

Quote
A spiritual sequel of sorts to Digital: A Love Story, set in a prestigious private high school, and on the social networks of 2027.

Seven students, three endings, one eavesdropping teacher. A full length visual novel about the erosion of privacy, gay drama, young sexuality, and the perils of modern online life for a high school literature class.

Basically about teenage drama, in some ways a shallow subject, but the game really isn't shallow. You play a teacher with access to all your student's messages, personal and private, and try to shepherd them in their hectic drama filled lives.

Pass.
For what it's worth it's a game about people who have sex and talk about it though, gay and lesbian sex... In fact there is no straight sex alluded to in the entire game.

I meant as a silly joke, but I don't see how that's any better...

Can I yell at the kids for being homosexuals and make distasteful comments on their statuses the entire game?

I was wondering when someone'd make a thread about this. I thought it was excellent, personally.

The 4chan bits were funny little excursions, as well.

I was like, ha, this looks like a pretty dumb and boring game. I was so wrong. Gentlemen, I have discovered true fun.
