where your heart used to be

layout is ready for tomorrow~

Nightshade is a game I played right when it was released so I don't remember much of it, only that it ripped my heart out my chest and stomped on it, and this

and I'm frustrated because my laptop broke after that which means I lost everything, my progress, my CGs, most of my screenshots... OTL

lmao I found about the PC port right after I finished recording Furutsugu's route and while I was writing a post about it agfdghfdh I don't regret doing it tho. I'm just not sure what to do now. I mean, I was eyeing some of Furutsugu's stories from the fandisc and considering buying them, even though the idea feels kinda silly now that the game will disappear in a month. But still, I want to read them. And the ones I want are like 1 usd each.

I felt kinda uneasy tho because I wasn't going to buy all of them, and I felt bad about the rest getting lost forever. but now I know that someone saved them and is going to release them at some point, and the relief is real lol I might still get a couple of them tho. not sure, still considering it, but I really feel like reading them now so I'm tempted ngl


aaaaand back to the port. this really is the coolest fucking thing, holy shit. not sure when it'll happen, because as I mentioned Scarlet Fate is not the kind of story I feel like playing at this point in my life lol, but finally I'll be able to read the routes I'm missing... especially Kuso's. I've wanted to play that route for years, because I'm a sucker for ~arranged marriage turns into real feelings~, and everyone I've seen in the wild who has played his game loves Kuso/says the route is great. I remember I actually started his route on the free version of the game, but stopped in the 3rd chapter because I had to read the whole common part AGAIN with the ticket system... I just couldn't cope withe the situation lmao

but for real, reading one of those routes in the free version sure was something. for most free otome games, reading a route usually takes around 2 weeks (without using extra tickets). but Scarlet Fate+? I read Gentoka's route there and it took me more than a month. I don't remember exactly how long, maybe a month and a half? idk, but it was wild. this story really wasn't made for that system and it fucking shows, Christ

I'm also fond of the other LIs, but because of these circumstances, I didn't want to look or think much about them lol

I started Ashen Hawk a couple of days ago, and playing is basically what I've been doing all weekend. I wanted to start earlier but last week was kind of weird for me? So yeah.

I'm still not done with the game but I felt like rambling a bit anyway~

( no real spoilers, just a long post )

hello, it's me, the

( TL;DR )

Bought the second volume of Obsessions of an Otome Gamer today~ I did it on Bookwalker. I know I mentioned I didn't like the idea of buying it there but today I noticed this deal and I just couldn't let it pass. I bought this book and a couple of comics and I paid around 5€ for everything. I'm so happy lol

I had to create a new account because the deal is only for new users, but I hadn't bought anything with my first account so it doesn't really matter. I was a bit worried about the reader because I had tried it before and it's not great, but it was the one for browser. I downloaded the app and that one is way better. So yeah, I'm pleased~

I was looking for Backstage Pass CGs on steam and I was reminded why I never look at what people have to say over there 🙄

but well, whatever. Today I've been preparing the layout for August and I'm finally done~ It can be tiring but I really enjoy doing this. Hopefully I'll improve with time too lol.

I wanted to be more active here but I've been way busier this month than I expected, and when I had free time I was too tired to do much or just... think lol.

I'm also frustrated because I wanted to play some stuff this summer and so far I haven't touched any of the games I was considering either orz It's not the end of the world or anything, but I wish I was better at managing my time.

I've had to use android emulators a lot in my life. Last year I spent months playing Shining Live on my laptop because my phone ran out of storage after a couple of updates. I stopped once I got a new phone at the beginning of summer.

I didn't feel the need to use the emulator again until today, for salt reasons I'm not mentioning here, and all the games I used play were still there, including Ensemble Stars.

Aw, man. I really miss enstars sometimes. I saw people talking about it on social media and it made me want to check my account, but I've been lazy. Also kinda scared to look and see that my account got purged (???) I'm not sure why I was worried about this though. For being inactive or something, it's been a long time.

I finally looked today and it's still there!
