We looking forward to FFXIV Dawntrail?
Looking at time invested to pay ratio, why does anybody agree to work on visual novels and light novels at all when they could be doing better working on manga and games?
Passion, preference for certain mediums over others. There's plenty of work I could have been doing that would pay better, even with my relatively comfortable position as it stands now, but I'm in this for the love of the game. Don't think I've met a colleague who isn't. That's why it's so easy for companies to fuck us over with low rates to begin with.
Sometimes I think some of the player behavior in Infinite Dendrogram is a bit unrealistic, but then I remember stories I've heard about EVE Online and it seems subdued in comparison
Is the pay to effort ratio for LNs that bad now?
Don't you get nervous about being a 30 year old man?
Don't you get nervous about eating at restaurants on your own?
Will you likely work on more light and visual novels in the future or mainly just sticking to games and manga?
Random question inspired by your @: Ever played VA-11 HALL-A?
Turns out the alphapolis curse was just a lie, it was just westoid publishers refusing to take anything from them, and all it took was a single newbie publisher not part of the cartel to just ask them to break the illusion.
any plans to adopt a new pet?
Should I read anything deeper into the fact that you describe yourself as a Consultant, a Manager, and a Translator, in that order?
just to check does this immutably irritating work email have anything to do with dendrogram? It's one of my favourite series so I hope nothing bad is going to happen to it...
2001 eroge about a dirty old man? Is that Kisaku? If so, have you enjoyed Shuusaku as well?
Bingo. Kisaku. And yes, Shuusaku is another favorite of mine. I think Kisaku's all the better if you're familiar with the earlier two titles (though beyond some decent gameplay innovations for the time, Isaku isn't really worth playing). They're not super well known outside of our niche, but I consider Shuusaku to be a real gamechanger on Elf's part even if it's a little clunky by modern standards. Kisaku was shockingly provocative and emotive (and just plain funny).
