Also more of a commenter than a poster. Making myself post, but I really feel all my posts are way less high-quality than my comments usually are.

As a gamer who mostly has no idea about the relative popularity of different genres it is interesting to learn this from your comment on Fedigrow.

Ace Attorney

What do you mean by this?

I do sometimes see a link post on Lemmy (often on some general community like !games) and copy it to (usually more-specific, like gaming genres: think copying from !games to !rpgs) communities I am active in (or sometimes ones I am not but am aware of: if I see a strategy game post I'll put it in all the relevant strategy game communities I know of), and figure it is alright because I always see a little "cross-posted to:" and the community I got it from, so I figure that is good enough for credit. Probably obvious I got it somewhere else, and easily clickable to find out where. (Or sometimes the little communities are just the communities I myself already posted it to.) Is this a bad assumption and I should stop?

I do it because I want conversation in the specific communities, and for things that could go in more specific communities to not only get talked about in one giant umbrella when the smaller niches already exist on Lemmy. Especially because I think there is a valid reason to not be on !games. Maybe you are not interested in most posts there, just some subgenres, or like me, you are sick of the ragebait-but-also-probably-true-news-so-not-off-topic-and-allowed posts.

I am fine stopping though, less work for me, and as life gets busier I have less time for Lemmy anyways.

I admit I exclude .ml from my crossposting bonanza because of all the political drama I hear about but never bothered to look into, because I feel I'll end up drawn into a political slapfight. Just look at all the comments here about .ml, whether justified or not (not sure and not about to try to figure out). I do not sub to anything on .ml and mostly look at Subscribed though, so I know I am not taking any of their content and copying it elsewhere, unless it was first copied from .ml to something I do look at. I also don't really look at the instance someone is commenting from unless I suspect trolling or we interact a lot though, so I am not being nasty to .ml users for just being on .ml, either. I know a lot of people who do not have anything to do with the political drama are there too because it is recommended as the Lemmy dev's instance, and I do not expect everyone to litmus test every social media for political drama before joining it.

I am insanely guilty of the content dump, figuring it'll prove a community active, but aside from "awww!" comments on !bunnies@lemmy.world where there just is not much to build off of, I also reply to almost every comment I get because I also want to have conversations.

The premise sounds cool, especially the Princes' Path where multiple guys fight over you (great for fulfilling the fantasy of being wanted, as well as just goshdarn interesting, romantic drama is always fun). However, the fact it is originally a mobile game makes me a bit concerned, given how the port of Celestia: Chain of Fate from mobile to PC and Switch went down: poorly. (The lemmyverse.link title preview might make you think it is just a notice of the sale, but I discuss how it went badly in the post body.)

Hey you are right, thank you!

For any other mods unaware of this feature, it only works on posts in communities you mod.

Wait, we did? I'm a mod and had no idea I could see peoples' votes. How do I do that? I say, as I probably will never use it until I start seeing my communities consistently getting downvotes on inoffensive posts that have no misinformation and are clearly on topic.

Found it because Zachtronics, a company way more known for their puzzle games enjoyed by engineers and programmers, made it.

After abandoning her high-powered tech career and a mysterious three-year absence, Evelyn Ishino-Aubrey resurfaces working as a proxy for a virtual counseling app called Eliza. Her job consists solely of reading a script provided to her in real-time by an AI, leaving her no autonomy over what she says.

Not sure if this is a more modern-day phone app or what, but either way it is almost certainly a nod to the 1960s ELIZA chatbot.

A rare VN that doesn't look like it belongs on ani.social (in other words, doesn't have an anime artstyle).

Put the disclaimer about AI in the title and not in the body or post text to make sure people don't reflexively downvote because of the word "AI". I am anti-generative-AI, this VN is just speculating (as in wonder, think, generate ideas, not as in investing riskily) on AI as a concept. Not using AI to do art and text and music. This was done in 2019, before that was a possibility for the public at large.

Great CG!

If the CG does not show up in the preview thumbnail, no need to mark as NSFW, but no rule against doing that.

Thanks for the review. I have been meaning to play this as soon as I figure out how to get the English patch working.

I wonder if it is a translation thing or if the route is still that ???-inducing in Japanese. I know some Choose Your Own Adventure books can be totally nonsensical, so not out of the realm of possibility an otome game would be.

!meta@ani.social

That would absolutely be it, thank you. Now I can go read the post.

Huh. I sorted by New and saw nothing, was this on the last Weekly thread?

I have heard about of the Devil, so excited for a potential review.

No, but I was intending to. Also seems totally like my thing.

I like stat-raisers for… huh, I have no idea why. I just do. It's fun. I actually do like the thing you hid in your spoiler, to be honest, as well as its opposite. After all,

Thanks for the review! I actually stopped the weekly threads because people did not usually post in them, and I figure it is more searchable and useful for folks to see review posts that typically mention a title instead of wading through tons of weekly threads CTRL+Fing or hoping searching by comments actually turns up the game and not (every single time I search Lemmy comments, every time) some unrelated political comment that happens to include the words they searched for.

I was literally going to comment what you put as your post body.

All the communities I mod are niche enough that I don't think every 24 hours is strictly necessary, though I am active enough to hit that requirement. Something big like !games@lemmy.world definitely needs that kind of requirement, but my quiet little communities are probably okay with twice a week, although I do check Lemmy about everyday anyways—more active users tend to be more likely to be mods.

if I recall correctly, MC getting locked in a cage by an LI isn't that uncommon

Was it Yandere Town or something like this?
