hey, feel free to drop this in https://lemmygrad.ml/c/fan_fiction !!!
That's what I was going to do, lol, but I wasn't sure if teasers were allowed. By the way, is it ok if I don't post links and just serialize the story in posts, or are whole works more preferred?
Maybe if we had a huge community already, but I'm ok with whatever posts right now
Can someone please remind me what's this game about? I forgor.
And if someone's writing Danganronpa fanfiction, don't forget to call me, I have an idea about collab with FnaF.
"Dating Sim that's actually a Fourth-Wall breaking, psychological horror (for some reason)".
That's about the gist of it, I only played the first few days of Chapter 1. (It has 4 chapters, the horror starts at Chapter 2)
Is it good?
Yes. You're probably gonna love it, as it features dark themes (like topics of mental health issues, depression, suicide; to name a few), especially sudden dark themes on a seemingly bright work.
It was a super hit VN back in 2017-18 too. That should tell you something; as it's usually rare for VNs (especially of the "dating sim" variety) to be trendy to the point where everyone is playing it. I think the community is still active with mod development and whatnot.
The OG DDLC is available for free, but DDLG+ (although it has new content/scenes, because it takes place on a fictional PC as opposed to in your PC like in OG DDLC, the fourth-wall breaking horror is diluted) you'll need to pay for. Both are on Steam btw.
Sounds interesting even though I don't like dating games since... ace, but this sounds interesting because of horror.
Is it in any way similar to Danganronpa by any chance?
Kind of? The characters do get corrupted and/or die horrible deaths later down the chapters, something common in Danganronpa. No class trials though.
example of said horrible deaths, though could be a spoiler
One girl stabbing themselves to death in a fit of insanity, for instance.
Interesting, kind of like despair thing?
The brutality is mild compared to what I watch but I just looked it up and it says that some ''suicides irl'' happened ''because of it'', I take this with a grain of salt since it's on the news and they senselessly blame games/movies for everything, but I must ask what is up with that?
Other than that, sounds really interesting and I will check it out!
Interesting, kind of like despair thing?
Idk what you mean here, but later chapters can feel despairing.
The brutality is mild compared to what I watch
Yeah, I figured it would be mild to you.
but I must ask what is up with that?
Attachment issues I guess. It's why there are so many mods turning DDLC into an actual dating sim, the most famous one being Monika After Story; essentially turning DDLC into a conversation/romance sim with Monika.
spoiler
Something that happens in Chapter 3 of the game, where you're locked to just talking with Monika. So Monika After Story is if the Player reciprocated Monika's obsession with the Player (as in, the one playing the game; not the MC) and purposefully decided to remain in Chapter 3.
Other than that, sounds really interesting and I will check it out!
That's great! Do let me know how it goes for you. It's a once in a lifetime experiene hehe.
Despair is the main thing in Danganronpa, best girl would be very disappointed😤
Lmao how did you know that I'm at that level as far as the horror goes🙃
It's probably not true that it's connected, like why would someone commit suicide because of game/anime?
It looks like it has deep and complicated themes/story. Haha, we'll see how it goes!
oh i'm aware of that. sorry junko, i was just confused at the time as to what you meant by despair ;w;
well, you seem to be greatly fascinated with dark/edgy content, plus you seem to be serbian (y'all made 'a serbian film' and seem to be in constant conflicts, from the yugoslavian war, the kosovan debacle, croatian debacle and now y'all have to deal with NATO nazis; so i imagine the average serb to have a much higher tolerance to horror).
🤷♀️ hell if i know, people can be weird sometimes i guess
lmao all the best on your ddlc journey~
Lol
I'm Serbian/Montenegrin/Bosnian/Macedonian, so full on Yugoslavian, yeah, we don't talk about that, that director should have been put in mental institution for even thinking about filming it, let alone that he called it ''art'', it doesn't represent all Balkans and yes, whole Yugoslavia went through A LOT and still does, we are used to everything. And absolutely yes, I'm DR/Elfen/Creepypasta/Saw/OG slasher level as far as horror goes plus goth on top of it.
Thanks a lot for recommendation!
I didn't say it represented the balkans, but I see. I agree, I wonder how the hell it was even allowed to be filmed, and then later be released to the rest of the world.
Interestingly, I've been thinking of giving Elfen Lied a shot at some point.
Lmao I love gothic stuff too, to the point where I'd love to take the appearance of a goth woman once I'm in a more safer place.
No worries, I have more dark media that younger me had to "go through" (and now older me that came across but didn't quite touch) that you might like.
Well, it didn't, Danganronpa was at it's peak and super popular then and everyone watched it, why would it traumatize me 🙃
And you got any suggestions?
Hmm, I could've sworn I made a response here a while back...
Anyway,
Probably because their contents are too dark/edgy for a minor to see? Lmao
As for suggestions, I'll DM you about it.
Yes you did, there is a huge bug on Lemmy that causes many posts and disappear, I don't know what's happening, but I hope that it gets fixed soon.
As for the director of Serbian Film, he wasn't, he said that he wanted to ''show the worst of the society today'' by filming that.
I'm edgy since like 9, I watched Jurassic Park 1 at 3, strted reading Creepypastas at 9, watched Alien at 10, Danganronpa and FnaF at 11 and started horror movies at 12 so yea...
Lmao thanks, I hope I find her UWU.
Let's go to DM for some suggestions!
Yea, I'm just saying since some people watch it/hear about it and then think that whole Serbia/Balkan is like that just because one director made 'that' and it was even banned in multiple countries.
It's amazing, I remember watching it back in the day. And yes, I watched it along with Danganronpa when I was 10-
I always dress in goth style, I hope that one day I can find asexual communist goth girl for bff😭
Really? I'm open to suggestions!
stereotyping an entire region/country because of what it made is pretty bad. was the director arrested for making it?
It’s amazing, I remember watching it back in the day. And yes, I watched it along with Danganronpa when I was 10-
wow, they weren't able to scar you?
I always dress in goth style
~~lmao i might start doing this soon, shame i can't wear goth makeup yet (are you able to wear goth makeup?)~~
asexual communist goth girl
lmao this literally describes who i am. but i still hope you manage to find your dream ace-commie-goth-girl bff soon. ( ; w ; )/
Really? I’m open to suggestions!
yeah! i'll DM you about it
Stop asking questions and just play it!! The less you know the better.
I started it yesterday, seems good so far but I still didn't come at anything sus.
keep playing ;)
Doki Doki Reading/Communist Club?
Also I'm guessing the fed's gonna be Monikkka.
(Also wouldn't the character try to radicalize Sayori first? Given that Sayori's the one Doki that the MC is closest with at the beginning)
spoiler
He kind of did already, but I don't want to spoil too much.
