Eyy, du hast nur den halben Witz erzählt. Der geht "Pilot, du scheiß Rassist!"

Thanks for sharing this video. While it is a bit long and has some duplication about some games in the introduction part and the specific game parts, it was nonetheless interesting to hear about this in depth talk about the romance genre.

I think the biggest problem romance in games will always have is the inherent contradiction between game mechanics and the realistic development of a relationship. It will be between the two extremes of being a pre written story or being a "relationship vending machine". But maybe somebody will find a way to combine both in the future. I never would have guessed that I found it fascinating to play a autocratic countries border guard and then along come Papers, Please, so who knows.

I don't really understand the downvotes, is it due to the length or directly proving the point of the video that too many people are scared of romance in games?

Oh for sure, I don't blame the companies for doing it. I'm blaming the customers for being stupid enough to fall for it. Again. And again. And again.

In another post it was said that $7500 per member was offered, totaling to $22500.

Which is still not a lot for giving up all future royalties, but their counter offer of 10x that ($225'000 in total) is a little much in my opinion as well.

But I'm still glad they spoke out, this way a more open discussion can happen about this topic.

But that is what we others are saying: there is no "more intuitive" system, just one you know better and can quicker evaluate how it would feel! So you agree with us.

Everything you said can be said about Celsius scale as well.

There is also a precedence for Celsius more than just an arbitrary number between 0 & 100.

A scale for liquid water, you know, the stuff that is the reason why we call our little spaceship "the blue marble"and why we even have this discussion, because it is the basis of all life on earth, is also not a bad choice for a number between 0-100.

And you made me curious: in what context did you have to calculate percentages of temperature that were not in Kelvin? Because as soon as percentages and temperatures are close to each other in one sentence the only example I can think of are things like reaction kinetic calculations and those are neither in Celsius nor in Fahrenheit.

If we want to go that road, intuition is according to Wikipedia:

Intuition is the ability to acquire knowledge, without recourse to conscious reasoning or needing an explanation.[2][3] Different fields use the word "intuition" in very different ways, including but not limited to: direct access to unconscious knowledge; unconscious cognition; gut feelings; inner sensing; inner insight to unconscious pattern-recognition; and the ability to understand something instinctively, without any need for conscious reasoning.[4][5] Intuitive knowledge tends to be approximate.[6]

Since every temperature system needs an explanation, namely the reference points, no system is or even can be intuitive per this definition.

What? Never been in a sauna? Do it, it's really nice!

Which system did you grow up with? Because I grew up from the start with Celsius und it is 100% intuitive to me. Everytime you americans use your funny temperature numbers I have to stop and use a tool for transforming it or I simply ignore it and go "low means cold and high means hot, how high? Ain't nobody got time for dat!"

So I disagree with your notion that Fahrenheit is intuitive. The system you grew up with and have multiple experiences as reference points for, is the system you feel is intuitive is also my opinion.

No worries, didn't thought you implied that, just wanted to be clear that its not the games fault.

And yes if your mind is not in the right state at the moment for that, there are many different more positive games instead.

For example, might I suggest a whimsical gentleman adventure roguelike? O=)

I wouldn't say I didn't enjoy the route, it was still interesting to me to learn more about Shizune and Misha. It wasn't that I found the characters annoying or the story bad.

If you liked the other routes I encourage you to try it someday.
