I have totally heard of this game! I remember looking it up years(?) ago. Aren't they on a boat or something? Trying to figure out a mystery? It sounded really interesting to play.

It's set on a spaceship in the future, and from what I have seen of it (and knowing the prequel), it's about the population's descent into unbelievably regressive neo-Confucianism. Like, "women have no rights and are chattel" regressive. In its favor, though, at least one of the non-player characters recognizes that that's incredibly fucked up (don't know what *Mute thinks about it since I haven't seen that route yet).

Oic. At least one character recognizes it? Thank you!

^ Not much mystery, you're a space investigator on a mission to download some files from a spaceship, really you just learn the history of what happened there, and yeah, it's really sad and fucked up and not for the faint of heart. And then in the second game, you learn how society got that way. But then there are cutesy little anime AI girls that love you? It's an interesting mix.

It still sounds interesting... if a bit of a downer game. Thanks for the info!

Secret 8 - Hate Plus (visual novel)

[personal profile] transcriptanon 2013-09-19 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[Picture is Eun-a from the visual novel "Hate Plus". She is (or at least looks like) a young woman wearing a light robe with bows and spiraling floral patterns on the sleeves and sides. She has long dark hair pulled back, with a side parting. There are strands loose hanging around her face. She is wearing rectangular framed eyeglasses. She is inside a library, almost smiling at the camera. The picture is rose-tinted.]

She's probably the first character — in anything — I've encountered who I don't feel a little bit sorry for. Usually I can see why things went bad for a character and think 'it's too bad they made that choice, they could have been redeemed.' But Eun-a got everything she wanted, and everything she deserved.

This isn't a criticism of the writing. I can't even honestly say that I hate this character. In fact I'm kind of fascinated by her.

I'm sure obvious Original Poster is obvious, I don't think anyone else on fandom secrets has played these games. Oh well!

For future reference, the "light robe" is almost certainly a hanbok (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanbok), which is a traditional Korean garment. The large bow/fastening on her upper right chest (viewer's left) is pretty characteristic.

Thank you very much! Will correct on page 2.

Nursejoy was talking about this the other day, I think. And now I really want to play it.

(Anonymous) 2013-09-20 10:05 am (UTC)(link)
;D

Just know it's pretty dark and sad, and standard trigger warnings apply. But I hope you like it!

a. you're not important enough for anyone to remember what games you play
b. idek who you are lol nor do i care
c. see a

why are you being rude about this on a place that's for sharing secret "opinions"

[personal profile] jaybie_jarrett 2013-09-20 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
Wow jeez , is that really necessary , all they were doing was commenting their opinion on a game ,which is what this community is FOR in the first place, and making note that it was little known.

Hey if you really think about it you could say the same about any secret on this community.

OP yo

(Anonymous) 2013-09-20 09:58 am (UTC)(link)
fair enough, I've seen plenty of secrets that said they were being "obvious" but I had no idea who they were. It's not that I think I'm "important" or whatever it's just that I've been reccing this game a lot, on this comm and to friends and, yeah, some people did know it was me right away. It's okay that you don't! It just means that you and I don't talk much.

(Anonymous) 2013-09-20 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
Can't say much specifically about this secret since I haven't played Hate Plus yet, but just wanted to say I like Analogue enough to buy it for a friend as well, so you're not alone. Looking forward to seeing what is explained in the prequel/sequel!

OP

(Anonymous) 2013-09-20 10:01 am (UTC)(link)
\o/ Yay!

Oh man.

I'm just gonna say this: you can bring your saves from Analogue over to the second game, so make sure you have the harem ending. I recommend playing them in this order: *Mute, *Hyun-ae, Harem. Although the game is broken up between days and you have to wait 12 hours between playing the days, but you could do Day One of each save, and then the next day do Day Two, etc.

Late reply is late

Well, I played it, I even baked a cake for Hyun-ae <3

I actually felt like there was a bit of a problem with Christine Love's writing with regards to Eun-a. I agree with you wholeheartedly that she deserved everything she got, but I was left pretty unsatisfied with how her back story was communicated, and where here motivations really came from. I get it, she wanted to live a particular type of lifestyle, but her position really put her in a situation where she could have easily done so without forcing her values on an entire society. I just never understood how she got from point A to point B, and I don't think Christine Love did a particularly good job of elucidating any of that.

I did like that game, though. The character profiles made it so much easier to keep track of everyone, and it was so interesting to see how the new dynasty was created on the ship.
