2025.01.23 06:56 Suspicious_Elk6811 Chaos;Head is so bad it may have soured me on the series.
I'm an avid VN reader and have read S;G multiple times. I decided to finally go back and play the rest of the series, but C;H is making me afraid.
Just to make things clear, Takumi isn't the problem. I fell in love with him half way through and grew to really enjoy the oppressive atmosphere. Unfortunately, these qualities were barely enough to carry me through the common route (ending A).
Things very quickly start to fall apart after finishing the first route. Ending B requires you to speed through the entirety of the same material only to be rewarded with 30 minutes of new content that hardly changes anything from the players perspective. This problem only continues to escalate with every heroine route.
For better or worse, the story only really cares about Takumi and his perspective through most of the game. So when you're forced to get the heroine routes, I'm left not really caring. With the exception of Nanami, I hardly know who any of these girls even are. They all have really strong concepts/backstories, but none of these endings explore them in any meaningful way. All these extra routes seem to exist to dish out some painfully obvious exposition and only get interesting 5 minutes before the credits roll.
I'm trying so so hard to suspend my disbelief and get immersed in these routes, but it's impossible! It takes something like 20 minutes of fast forwarding to get to about 30 minutes of new content. Every single loop results in a continued degradation of the oppressive atmosphere and tension the game used to have. I can't help but feel like all the interesting bits would have been better if organically implemented into the common route.
I won't even get into how pointless all the stuff with the detectives and Hazuki is. The New Gen murders are supposed to be the hook, but not even the game cares about them by the end. The plot justification of breaking Taku is so very thin. I can't help but think that Hazuki would have had better success by just dating and breaking up with Taku. It would have atleast tied in to his gynophobia./s
These are all things that I'm willing to forgive in a debut work. I actually very deeply respect how ambitious the project is and can't bring myself to truly dislike it. That said, the community seems so uncritical of this game. There are even lots of people that list this game as their favorite in the series. This has made me lose all excitement for the rest of the games in the series. If they're all of comparable in writing quality of C;H, then I don't I'd have the patience to sit through the rest of them.
Please please, someone assure me that the other games are better.

2025.01.23 06:56 Sea_Passion_7571 Help !!! Bioforms or intricate models. Which should I teach and how?
 | I have always loved 3d modelling and picking up nomad sculpt recently has helped me visualise and explore alot of my art in 3d. I have always loved Biology since school and loved drawing biology diagrams since then. I also love mythology and intricate patterns inspired by antiques and jewellery. This comes from me being an architect. I have always wanted to teach my skills and I'm now feeling alot more confident about teaching these as I now have a fair hang of the software and I do believe these are unique enough. Im confused what should I make a course or workshop based on? Teaching how to sculpt and visualise bioforms? (First 5 images) Or teach how to make intricate models (last 5 images) What do you guys think? Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you. submitted by Sea_Passion_7571 to NomadSculpting [link] [comments] |

2025.01.23 06:56 Unusual-Mute11217 My husband is using dating apps
My husband and I are very good friends I trust him with so much of my life but I keep finding dating apps or dating platforms on his browser history. Obviously I don't fully trust him anymore, but why is it so hard to confront him and stand up for myself. We've been together for 8 years. We stopped being intimate ages ago.
I found dating apps by accident once on his phone. We fought about it, talked about it, and then he just said he wouldn't anymore.
There's so much more to this infidelity he's doing. I'm gonna delete this account soon because I don't want him to find it since he uses this app a lot ( to meet up with partners).
Can anyone give me some insight other than, leave him? Similar life experience? I've tried to leave but I chicken out because I love him and like I said he's my best friend.
Im entirely disgusted with myself.

2025.01.23 06:56 AnonimoST12JJ Mi novia me ha dicho numeradas veces que solo me quiere por mi Dinero.
Bueno todo esto pasó cuando antes de tener nuestro primer hijo, llevábamos 3años de novios y tanta fue mi inocencia que nunca me aseguré de su lealtad. ella me estuvo engañando con alguien más por SMS. Mencionó esto para descartar algún tipo de situación donde mencionen que el hijo no podría ser mío.
Mi mala suerte empezó cuando los recuerdos que pasamos me invadieron y no podía dejarla ir así de fácil “La peor decisión en mi vida retener a alguien que tiene ganas de irse” en esos días pasamos muy mal en nuestra relación y con el tiempo nos enteramos que seríamos papás. Todo el embarazo ella me mencionaba que nunca me querrá ni mucho menos me serviría como mi mujer.
Tiempo después funde mi propia empresa donde podría decir que ganaba demasiado dinero. 💵 con el tiempo mi hijo nació y fue una bendición en mi familia pero esto solo era el comienzo de un infierno en pareja. Día a día el maltrato psicológico era peor al punto de decirme que era un inútil por no salir a trabajar como un obrero o agricultor. Mi trabajo depende de estar en mi computadora todo el tiempo de ahí sale dinero. Así que siempre me sentía mal, no me servía el desayuno y el almuerzo pues era algo que le sobraba de lo que ella comía.
Hace unos años recibí un email de mi trabajo donde se me había reducido mi sueldo en un 80% prácticamente estaba ganando 2 a 6$ diarios. Ella lo supo y su primera reacción fue abandonarme. La verdad no lo tome a mal por qué desde que vino a vivir conmigo siempre buscó la forma de irse.
Luego cuando la marea terminó volví a recuperar mayores ganancias y tuve un sueldo demasiado alto y luego volvió mencionando que nuestro hijo necesita de su padre. El fue muy apegado a mí así que por mi hijo decidí que volviera a casa. Una noche tuvimos una fiesta en donde asistimos ambos y la pasamos bien y tantas copas que pasaron que nunca me imaginé que sería el comienzo de algo lindo que me podría pasar. Ella quedó embarazada y un año después nació mi segundo hijo. A ambos los amo con mi vida pero siento que mi relación ya no puede más.
Me da miedo irme y dejarlos sin un padre. Pero cada día es un piedraso más donde me hace ver mi pareja que solo sirvo para hacer dinero. Me despierto temprano a trabajar y nunca recibo un desayuno o algún tipo de Interés por mi esfuerzo. Solo recibo insultos y algunas veces me ha mencionado que solo está aquí por nuestros hijos.
Quiero irme y hacer una nueva vida pero estoy seguro que ella sembrará odio en mis hijos hacia mí y hará lo posible para que la ley me Impida verlos.
¿alguien podría ayudarme, Que podría hacer?

2025.01.23 06:56 No_Difference9107 Is victus worth it?
After two months m gonna buy a gaming laptop and victus fits my budget 12th Gen Intel Core i5-12450H, NVIDIA RTX 2050, 8GB DDR4, 512GB SSD I wanted a casual looking laptop with top notch performance and victus is right it, and m gonna buy it off amazon but it is not clearly mentioned which gen victus it is Like 16 or 15 And I heard that the 16 comes with RGB backlight keyboard and all but idk how to figure that out
And I was wondering if there is any other choice I should look for budget gaming laptop with top notch performance and should look premium not centered to gaming looking bec victus is being common around me, a lot of people have victus and I wanted mine to be unique

Have the recent developments in the US Government changed your original views? Have you hardened your beliefs on violence and protest? What are your current morals telling you is the right answer to this old chestnut?

2025.01.23 06:56 bart_grewup Do you need underlayment or sound damper with barrier backed Flooret LVP?
I’m adding LVP to a rental. The contractor suggested Cortec Pro and said a barrier wasn’t needed as the product has a backing.
For a main level with a basement beneath it, would you still suggest a sound damping underlayment?
Also, would you use Cortec Pro, a Flooret product or something different? I’m considering holding the rental another 5-6 years.
