The brand name thing is one of those things that rarely does come up on the surface so it do be like that. Kinda like how Baseson is a Nexon subsidiary and Lilith is a brand of Infinibrain which makes it confusing at times. XD Hopefully it doesn't come to the time where they wipe it though, it really did bring so much in terms of unique games and stories some of which came to be so big too so it does feel like it'd end up indirectly harming anime and gaming in general in Japan at least so I really hope they don't do it. But yea, grreat that it'll be out tmrw though!

Well dang, that sounds horrible I'm sorry that had to happen to you so suddenly... Though a debit card should be good enough for JCB. Tbh that's what I'm using now as well since a credit card isn't as worthwhile since there are some mainstream stores that don't accept it too so a card you don't get charged for holding is a lot more convinient imo

In a way that is part of it since the thing they didn't want was his face to be easily accessible on the internet because of their policies which were so strict that there was a period in the past where they tried to completely restrict the amount of official images of some of the talent under them on the internet. This meant to the extent that they would not post the pictures of some of their talents even on their own website. While this isn't as strict anymore, those policies are still somewhat used to control the level of appearance of some of their talents online which the extractability/moddability of it is a part of that.

I'm glad the stuff is interesting to you and that you enjoy the journey whereever this might take us o7

Yea the game definitely does create a lot of characters and scenarios that help make it easier to draw fan art and make content around it in a way. I've heard from some of the people into the hoyoverse side of stuff too and the biggest compaint from fan artists on that side is that sometimes the chars or costumes are just too complicated or just don't fit as well with the type of content and so it makes it harder for them to make it too so what you're saying is kinda a factor it does feel like.

@@iwanttomoveon9097 It's interesting how many of the fairly bigger names still pop up in this space here and there for sure

@@theamazingfan8889 oh, didn't see that message so it rlly might'v3 been. Yea I heard about it. As far as I heard they didn't enforce anything, they just went to inquire and visa threw some people under the bus and denied knowledge. I have not heard about censorsip fully stopping yet though, mostly getchu got monetisation back but it's unsure if they got it back because they agreed to visa's demands or not is the only thing. Idk how it'll pan out yet either but hopefully actually enforcement is pushed at some point

@@overworkedsalaryman same I also had this speculation they were just damage controlling

@@shironasama0445 She truly did help a lot yes 🙏

@@peterthuynh4282 And I survived too! Thankfully considering the chaos there

@@harushion I've not heard about that yet at least but there isn't any info out yet so it's possible what you said might be true. Though that said the stalker is a fairly well known problem person so I doubt they'd do nothing at all, but the police do mostly only move when they know they can get a conviction so it might just b that they are moving in the background for enough info for a conviction. We'll have too see, but if they really do nothing about that scum it certainly would be extremely disappointing.

I'm glad you found the guide useful! Tbh after this Comiket it does feel like the weather has gotten even rougher again so I'm thinking of adding on more stuff when we get to next summer but till then hope this one served you well!

Yea Kaiji is great I enjoyed it so much and I feel like this game really didn't manage to capture the magic. On the one hand I don't blame them since the story is very character and personality based which would be hard to capture for the way Kaiji went and tbh idk how one would capture the magic of the show in a game. That said even then this game is still pretty bad.

Yea the scalpers as well are a real problem with the number of copies since they tend to work in packs to try and get up to 100 copies in the worst to sell. Feels like the current system didn't work as effectively at curbing them as I thought it would, it just made it a lil easier for people to get there less early with less stress and still get ahead in queue potentially before some of the scalpers

I hope you enjoyed and thank YOU for watching if anthing

yea 3 times straight is p crazy as is 🥳

Now that you mention it, the track kinda does have that vibe huh 🤔. Gotta give those games ost a listen again though. They're rlly good.

It really is a lil bit of both lol especially since they take place in winter and summer. You get to enjoy both the nordic version of hell and the burning hellfire version too lol. Though jokes aside it really is quite fun to just walk around and browse through everything that people make at the event and chat with them when there's time. Thankfully there weren't sweat clouds due to the poor ventilations this time but back in the day those were how you could tell shit was going down XD

@@Solinaru Think the next one is in October so i'll see what i can do o7

I'm glad you enjoyed it. Gotta thank the person who helped edit the video for their good sense since that was their ad-lib

Yea it's crazy how popular BA is tbh at least in these events since playerbase wise it isn't the most massive series. Though the uma musume mandate has been a thing in Japan for quite a while now and is a point of contention it seems like between parts of the fandom since there are parts of it overseas (though not all peeps) that believe that creating 18 plus content should be their freedom and continue to do it while there are parts that choose to cooperate because they don't want the series to die as a result of it.

What!? How do they even enforce this? Send laywer to half the convention or police? I will get it if was a specific kid brand, but Uma Musume?

@@ericquiabazza2608 Prolly just sue whoever does it or in the worse case the keiba might find a way to pressure Uma Musume into shutting down. The issue is that Cygames doesn't own the rights to the horse names and as we are not privy to the contract between them and the Keibas there could be a clause there that allows them to rescind based on specific reasons which could include this.

@@scorcher004 That sounds rough. Did they take that long to distribute it? Usually I get it directly from the doujin stores so never got to experience it so am curious of how the e-ticket flow goes

@@overworkedsalaryman no, that was just the line to get into the event after I got my wristband. Wristband pickup was really fast. Just outside of kokusai tenjijo station, they had a table where you show them your e ticket QR code and they give you your wristband

@@mnamesjef1779 Oh, my apologies. Didn't know that it had become one since I remember seeing it being thrown around a lot 10 plus years ago. Sorry if it caused any discomfort for you because of that, I'll look out in the future. As for the haul video I'll see how best I can record it o7

@@overworkedsalaryman It's all good! I've also used that word until finding out recently

​​@@overworkedsalarymanTrap isn't a slur the only time I remember when it was considered one was when some niji vtuber said it was and told people to educate themselves which lead to a bunch of backlash because it isn't a slur.

i stll using this though, it's not a slur at all to me. femboy is like otokonoko a.k.a 男の娘 (just a boy that kind of feminine not manly) while trap is for cross dresser and it's fine to differ this. western is just have too much sensitive people nowadays. i don't really care with western political about gender though, it's all weird like men can easily enter female sport or toilet.

@@lastecho3130 Rip the Haruka quest. Though hopefully there'll be more in the future 🙏 Wood carving stuff in general always has a really cool aesthetics to it, really wish more circles would use it in making stuff too tho can imagine it'd be alot harder to pull off XD Have a buncha wooden coasters and a small number of keychains but nothing quite on the level you mentioned so that's pretty interesting

@@Redbird7151 Iz a gud show 😉

Oh, thought three beat was gonna be like a baseball or cricket term idk why lol. Though the fact that they went on to cash in the term sounds like such a scummy thing to do lol. Hat-trick does sound like a pretty nice term instead yea though I thought it'd have been a soccer term rather than a hockey term so that's interesting. I'll think about how to do the video on what I picked up. Since I wanna find a way to do that without getting shadowrealmed by youtube or to at least make it more interesting.

Hey there and thanks for subscribing. Glad to hear that some of the content is interesting to you. 🙏 I do have more of those planned here and there interspersed with some of the other types of content as well so you can bet there'll be more around. In terms of dream games it might be too long for a youtube content I've always wanted to make a story generator game or an open world game on the level of Kenshi though those would prolly be something I'd want to wait till I'm able to gather more people to work with together in the future rather than something I'd wanna try working on solo throughout the entire project. Else I'd prolly wanna try making a strategy warband management game or a rts (more of a single player leaning experience rather than a pvp oriented one)... Maybe as a pet project if I ever could semi retire I might try it out XD

Oh yea, I didn't mention it in the video but it's called Lost paradise of Karuta. I left a link to the steam page for it in case you wanna check it out too!

@@overworkedsalaryman thx bro XD

@@El_Ace No worries, hope it's interesting 🙌

@@HaydenTheHistorian When Himmels teachings are used for the dark side instead of to stop knife attacks

Yea that B/W photo was quite an interesting one since it used that very old wet plate style photo-taking yet somehow ended up looking quite modern. Though yea with people committing actual crimes at the event it's something I really dislike since it goes against the very trust based way that the event operates (Most of the staff at the event are also volunteers so everyone there is operating in a very large measure on the trust that no one will do anything that messes up the event for everyone else) So when it comes to stuff like that I feel like it really ought to not be tolerated.

B/W photography really does make whatever you're photographing look timeless, within reason. If the Yamaguchi man was wearing a surgical mask, he'd look like he was stuck in the year 2020. Very cool indeed. Yeah, the country is rather trust based too, isn't it? Anyways, I respect that you have the guts to say what you believe, unlike a number of western CZcamsrs who don't. Heck, letting these sorts of criminals get off the hook without consequence is one of the reasons why Britain is so unsafe now. I'm speaking from experience when I say that for the safety of Japan's future, it's important that the country be very careful with who it lets in, otherwise, there aren't just going to be gropers, but also gang rapists and little girl stabbers. Apologies for the negativity, Mr Salaryman. I'm glad that you seem to have had a pleasant time at Comiket in spite of the hot temperature and everything.

@@stephenbanyar1874 Yea there's just something with the way the style of photography works that makes it hold up so well XD But yea the country is quite trust based even though corporate culture is so full of distrust it's kinda funny the balance that exists. That said when it comes to especially the countryside areas some of the trains are completely honourbased where no one mans the gantryless station and they expect you pay for the ticket anyway which kinda helps with reducing redundant jobs in a way it feels like. Japan is pretty strict with the people who get let in on a work visa at least with how long the process takes and how difficult it is to get citizenship but with tourists it certainly does feel a lot harder... I recall during the Olympics there were quite a few cases of people talking about increase in crime and shady sorts being around but it does feel like those come and go at least. Especially recently with what happened with that one Johnny Somali fella. That said, no need to apologise about negativity, that should be my job for having to bring it up during a video about a con in the first place XD But yea, heat aside it certainly was a fun experience still

@@powersonic19 Used to be more of a thing pre-pandemic for a small number of circles but yea it's crazy how bad the queues can get

Cool! I'll think about how to do the video on what I picked up. Since I wanna find a way to do that without getting shadowrealmed by youtube or to at least make it more interesting.

It certainly does feel like it has gone through quite a few phases from Touhou to Kancolle to FGO and now to BA in the way that it did at the top. All while the other series around have also slowly changed along with all the new anime that comes out. In a way it makes it even more interesting to see the kinda stuff that people come up with over time as there slowly exists even more IPs for people to take influence from

At that point you'll see me just having a chair made completely out of doujins instead

Hopefully when you do go for those in the future they'll be a fun experience XD Also, hope that the Japan trip was interesting and safe! There were a buncha earthquakes quite close to Comiket which might've been quite spooky for people around Japan at the time so if you were around at the time, hope things went fine and hope the journey was fun.

@@overworkedsalaryman Thanks so much, and yeah it was great! keeping track of news and being somewhat cautious went a long way to feeling safe during the trip. Here's hoping in the future it is less hot, but somehow I feel like that isn't likely LOL.

@@magnumic2419 Just gotta come in winter and suffer the total opposite 🤣 Though for real good to hear the prep paid off. Can imagine especially since English isn't common here that it can be really tough other wise

I'd say that older shows seem to do a better job of representing it if anything. That said, there are some parts of Comiket particularly pre-pandemic that just aren't well represented in anime simply because of the illegality of parts of it like the overnight queue for instance. That said, I'd say Genshiken does it pretty well as does Lucky Star in a different way. With Lucky Star it feels like it just does a single throwaway episode showing how different the event can look to an outsider/first-timer compared to a veteran but in terms of a close view of the event I'd say nothing quite comes close to Genshiken as most animes typically show a more glamorized version of it like in Kobayashi

Oh? Didn't know about her prior. What made her infamous?

@@overworkedsalaryman Several things, you can look up clips of her. Like she openly admits to not bath, and one time she went to another vtubers house, and threw away an used tampon behind the fridge.

@@Padoca That all sounds pretty foul. will go look more into that though thanks for pointing that out

It was truly a very different time back then lol

@@overworkedsalarymanI absolutely loved the slice of life nonsense. I jokingly insisted that sensei was the second coming of Christ to prevent the angle from falling to evil(Gemetria) “all your children will be taught by the Lord(Christ) and great will be their peace” Isaiah 54:13 then undead sensei with the crown of thorns came out, and I was wilding out

Glad the videos have been interesting so far for you! Yea their games are certainly very unique but at times they can get quite complicated which might chase away some new players too since there's so much more to take into account. Hopefully one day they'll manage to gather the talent neccessary to make a resurgence. Would've loved to join at the time but was still worried about my own level of experience so went to a smaller company focusing on dev first instead but maybe someday I'll try again...

It might very well be possible tbh considering dlsite has its own points as well as is. 🤔 The only think is how to get other companies to adopt the same point system shared across though with how things are going we very well might see a day come where they might be desperate enough to try

It definitely would be nice and convenient if games could do something like that tbh. Especially for older titles where this is still a very real problem

Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure that changing the locale requires the user to at least log out and log back into their user account. It's not something that can be quickly changed back and forth quickly. A compromise would be to figure out how "Locale Emulator" works and create some sort of wrapper for the game exe.

Yea it certainly does feel like one of those issues where if people just ignore it because it seems like a haha coomer thing now it could result in these companies thinking they can just get away with doing whatever they want in restricting expression in other countries regardless of the laws of those countries. Hopefully something does get done about this at some point...

I'm glad you found the video interesting 🙏 Indeed it does feel like picking the translator is very important as well and is something that still seems to be quite questionable of late with what people were complaining about with ZZZ too. That said I have not played the remastered yet so not too sure about this but the scenes were removed for this version of the game too? If so that's a lil disappointing...

Oh yeah if I remember it correctly, Shiro and Tosaka's scene from UBW was replace in Realta Nua with both of them just lying in bed together to transfer Rin's magic to Shiro.

@@ihavenoshameandmustscream421 Ah the era of actually replacing scenes rather than just cutting them out altogether... truly was a different time back then lol

I can only imagine how confusing that keyboard is to use at home lmao. I have an ergonomic keyboard produced in the US because one of the directors in the company I'm currently working in recommended it which causes all sorts of confusion since I have a US layout at home and a JIS layout at work so I feel your pain

@@drew_echo Sounds like it really is a problem everywhere in the world huh... kind curious what types of characters would tend to break more there since unicode feels like it was supposed to be more all-encompassing even tho it kinda ended up not being

Lol, hopefully you manage to clear through all of them at some point that'd be p cool XD Though with how little having a JP locale affects most daily life stuff it certainly does feel like there's no harm in doing so especially since it helps ensure games from Japan don't break down in the edge cases where locale is needed

But if they don't add more emojis how is sony going to make an emoji movie sequel? : < Though jokes aside it really feels like there isn't a good reason why they haven't dealt with this issue yet. Back then it made a lil more sense when they gave the excuse of not having enough codes due to a lack of integers but with the integer expansions in later years it does feel like even that excuse doesn't make sense anymore...

Yea I know the feel, especially back then there were a lot more issues of shady bloatware and spyware that people, even the companies producing the operating systems weren't as aware of and so getting exploited was a lot easier to. Things like people saying download accelerator plus etc was good and stuff without any explanation is something that was such a problem too imo. This video may have ended up being 15 years late but hopefully for the next gen of VN players maybe it will help them avoid the same predicament.

@@overworkedsalaryman yes, it will c:
