Hanako Games

If I gain even a single point with Grabiner, do I automatically not get to tell Donald that it's a marriage in name only?

Yeahhhh, we were talking about narrative-based forum RPs, without stats and stuff involved. Here's what I suggest: People who are interesting in RPing post their original characters in this thread (or in another RP OOC thread) with some basic information about them: name, appearance, what year they'...

You should read Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality, if you haven't already. :3

I can say that in general the only LP that seriously annoyed me (and I'm not linking it) is one who was skipping through all the text without reading it. And then complaining that the game was pointless and made no sense. Well, yes, if you refuse to actually play it... Seriously? Where was this from?

I do think that a subforum dedicated to Magical Diary RPs would be the best way to scratch the sequel itch. We could all RP students, and maybe teachers to a lesser extent, from the school, and perhaps reference characters like Potsdam and Grabiner. If hanako wants to throw in unused worldbuilding n...

Thank you so much for the mood viewer! I agree that it doesn't look intrusive at all and it fits well with the general UI.

I call dibs on Elodie!

Not used to the VN play style, are ya? Skipping dialogue is par for the course. In fact, I like that it's a more scripted experience than your typical game - it just makes for a better story.

-have maybe a map in the game, and some percentage bars that show you how well liked you are by certain people/factions This might be a good idea for those of us trying to prevent/get civil war. Perhaps it could be implemented in the "test bubble" system. Like when events/tests cause factions to di...

(though i replayed several sections over and over to get it right) That should answer your question. I find that dresses are nice especially if you'll be using all three subskills (which, granted, isn't always the case). There's no need to max out any skill if you have the corresponding outfit, sin...

I like that at first we don't get much hints as to just how often we'll die in this game- Elodie IS a fourteen-year-old fresh out of boarding school after all. Her being naive and not paranoid makes complete sense story-wise. I mean, if you think back to how you were when you were 14...

I looove that this game is all about dying horribly in many, many different ways - it's a level of challenge I don't often see in games seemingly targeted towards female audiences (cute sparkly girlie protagonist? of course it's for little girls - NOT). But to maybe make it a little more palatable t...

Can I second the request to have an option to view your mood on the weekend activity screen? It would really, really help to have that. It's very frustrating to have to try to remember what your mood is when trying to decide what activity to choose.

Ahaha I see. At first I thought that maybe I had to have neutral mood or something to get a boost in it, but eh.

Would you say that a good general strategy would be to keep your moods as neutral as possible, so that it's easier to control them when you want a specific mood?

You don't die as much in PM2. Just sayin.

(Really though, I feel like PM2 is much more straightforward compared to this game.)
