Re: Visual Novels

Well I may give it a try, then! ...at some point (pretty much reserve it for weekend nights when I go home to visit my family and I want to pass the time before bed, a nice and comfy feeling. :) )

Re: Time for some EOIV merchandise!

I'm not one to collect figures, with the exception of little kaiju SD figures, but damn that Imperial figure is cute!

Re: Sexism Against Men

I don't really think my post fully falls under that rule but whatever. At this point I am going to self-impose a break from this section. For my blood pressure.

Re: Sexism Against Men

I didn't mean to insinuate that you said we should have more male leads; I perfectly understand that. You want fair and balanced. That ain't gonna happen just like that. It'll happen after we no longer bat an eye at a woman being in a role that our societal rules would otherwise designate as only ap...

Re: Sexism Against Men

I'm all for the day when old-hat sexists die, off (unfortunately, many of their children take their beliefs forward). And no, I see no problem with a movie pushing four female leads and having a male villain. It's not like it's going to be a man-hating movie. People love villains. People love Dinkla...

Re: Sexism Against Men

I kind of feel like I'm having words put in my mouth here. How would pushing female-centered casts *harm* another group, i.e., males? (Peter Dinklage, America's favorite male quite possibly, is sought for the villain role). And I'm not even talking about atonement. I'm simply talking about oppressed...

Re: Sexism Against Men

Nah, I never said there needs to be segregation, I'm just saying people ought not to complain when we have more movies that push female leads or multi-ethnic casts, or holidays that celebrate a certain group. It's not segregation at all.

Re: Sexism Against Men

So a step for women is fine even if it's an unequal step? Yes, essentially. Anytime feminists make a big push for women representation, or anytime we have a black history celebration, people not in those groups roll their eyes and say how sick they are of seeing all this stuff. But that stuff has t...

Re: Sexism Against Men

Eh, it's a reboot anyway, so I don't see the problem with calling it plain ol' Ghostbusters and not something stupid like "Lady Ghostbusters." It matters in as much as it's a step forward towards having more female-centric movies that aren't stereotyped "chick flicks" without mak...

Re: Visual Novels

Well wow, thanks for all the recommendations! I'll definitely check some of these out.

(I think I've tried Narcissu before but couldn't get into it, but would be willing to try again)

Re: Visual Novels

I'm kinda new to the realm of visual novels (as I am in many things). Since I'm a literature enthusiast, I usually prefer novels over comics or light novels. Visual novels interest me, though. Has anybody heard of Wintertale? I found it on Google Play and though it's really simple, with a kinda &quo...

Re: Sexism Against Men

So how about them Lady Ghostbusters?

I tell you, my Facebook feed is a field day because of the haters. :roll:
