Fedule posted:Her habit in Japanese affects pretty much every line she has... but only at the end. So it's not inconceivable that I might have been overdoing it. The question is this: Is Usami speaking like that deliberately? Because if she is, then I've got leave to have her only do the "w" thing on words she's emphasizing. So, in your case, she could correctly pronounce "very" before "sowwy", but still maintain her "fwuffy bunny wabbit" line from earlier, because she's deliberately varying her speech. I also feel like Usami's dialog is a bit thick with the mechanism, but I can see how a tic like that would be difficult to translate into a low-context language like English. Is there a way to do it without altering the phonemes she expresses?

Einander posted:Yes, but that's boring. I prefer to assume hints are hints instead of mischievous devs. That's the construction of expectations that they can then gently caress with. I prefer to assume this is all intentional, expecting that the player has some experience with DR1, so that they can then expect what you will expect to some degree that they may then gently caress with you.

theshim posted:Unlikely as the Despair of the group, if there is one again. Ohhhhh there's no way the dead supermodel could be the villain of this game! I agree with you though, I doubt they'd do something so seemingly unlikely again. Since we're immediately aware of 16 students, I'd go so far as to say whoever is behind the students' transplantation to this desert island is not one of them. theshim posted:I'm also getting slowly creeped out by Nagito. He's so friendly and open and yet some of his lines are getting more and more morbid... Ridiculous hairdo aside, Nagito's personality isn't so eerie to me. He, uh, reminds me of myself, which isn't something I often say of fictional characters.

Spatula City posted:any sane mystery afficianado would probably peg her as a likely murderer based on how mentally unstable she appears to be Well, look at you, Mr. Judgmental, pegging characters that have only really shown themselves to be extremely, incredibly, painfully shy and poorly-socialized as unstable. We know jack poo poo about anyone and are barely into day 1, c'mon.

Unless there's a Super High School Level Medium And/Or Seance Guy around, in which case The photographer shares some character traits with Aoi, in an odd way; like a less ditzy, more artistic incarnation. I'm not sure I want to peg everyone in 2 as mashup characters, though.

To retread old ground for a moment;dog days are over posted:I really like how all the characters have their own symbols, even if they don't really play a part in the story of the game. Our protagonist's symbol caught my eye; If you look at the full image: Pay close attention to his breast pocket. That heart+key symbol is, I think, what his tie's design is a component of, not a skull.

I thought that as well, at first, but the one on his shirt lacks the outer highlight line. With the heart symbol, it's small enough to where I can tell that there is internal detail to the body of the heart, but not what that detail is.

You seem very upset by word choice here! You seem like a native English speaker. If you're not, you use it very well. How many words can you think of, in this language, that convey that the listener is deficient in intelligence without being a massive insult? Also!

BioEnchanted posted:Something I've noticed about Togami's behaviour: he seems more willing to talk with others this time around. This time, without Naegi, he has taken the initiative to attempt to unite people, instead of locking himself in the library like in the previous game. njsykora posted:Well we don't know if there's a library yet. Also there aren't any dead bodies for him to be artistically arranging and posing... yet. All that's left of Monomi is her bow.

^^ He's kind of petulant, really. But yeah, he definitely has a lot more dialog because he hasn't just sat there thinking "Should I tell this person this important fact? Nnnnnooooo... I'm just going to go fart around in the changing rooms!"Antivehicular posted:(If he somehow does end up as Hope, it's going to be an interesting ride to get there.) Naaah, he's clearly SHSL Chronic Dissent.

The only fanfiction I've personally seen someone punished for was that... pokemon thing, from like 2009. As far as DR0 goes, I'm on board with Ryouko being some sort of SHSL analyst. I imagine she and Matsuda make quite a pair, if that's the case.

Only a few pages ago? We've had SHSL Shitposting happening since the first update. Something about Dangerous High School Tropes In Trouble brings out the weird/dumb in people. e: For topicality's sake, the last time Ibuki's thigh was brought up, the conversation ended on a note akin to "i dunno lol". We'll find out if she talks about it at any point, otherwise, assume it's cosmetic.

It's a joke from a DR1 4koma comic. Naegi and Kirigiri discussing the heroine of the story, Kirigiri insist's "it's you, Naegi-kun."

Serious Frolicking posted:Some things that may or may not count as evidence include the state of the floor, I don't see how you could discount the state of the floor as evidence considering how many characters talked about how hazardous the gaps in the floor were during the initial phase of the party. It may be a red herring but I'm leaning toward 'no'. It's a bit early, since we haven't done any investigating yet, but I have every confidence the floor's state will be evidence.

I like all the suspicion that's being cast on Nagito, particularly because he's... kind of shady and has had all of this opportunity to set the stage for an opportunistic murder in the dark. I think he's 'the Togami' of this game, personally - perpetually suspicious but likely to never be guilty. I have nothing to back this up and it may be proven otherwise once the investigation phase begins, but I suspect the bathroom was locked from within and someone wriggled through the floorboards to move elsewhere. It was mentioned that the crawlspace is probably entirely filthy, and this seems likely to me - so, if we find evidence of a quick change or quick cleanup then it'll be all the more obvious. Of course, we have very little to go on right now, so saying that you're convinced a character did it is really premature. We have some observations and that's it.

Wow, stabbed eight times. The killer must have been pretty emotionally-charged when Togami was stabbed, even if it wasn't personal.

Zandar posted:Ha, that actually makes me think of the cook. He'd have access to plenty of aprons, and it probably wouldn't be too suspicious if one of them were blood-spattered. Quick to change out of, too. There's getting blood on your apron from really fresh meet, and there's getting blood all over your apron from the ludicrous amount of murder blood in Togami's murder body.

This is pretty good but you're pushing these folds way too far. This is a heavy garment designed to obscure form of figure, it wouldn't pinch like that, especially not where you have those hard, hard creases.

I really hope something like this comes to light during the trial's comic assembly phase: The joke came to me while I was wrapping up a couple of things for my finals and I had to spend a few minutes sketching it out.

Ern Malley posted:So I could very well imagine that the dancer girl would be quite unkempt and disheveled after five (or so? However many days have passed) straight days of wearing the same outfit. That's not really what I was talking about. Having the folds be such a sharp dark colour when there's already interior shading using more appropriate values makes them stand out way too much, especially with those really sharp-angled edges. Fabric bunches very organically, usually, you tend to get more curvature in its folds. e: If it helps, my commentary on any and all goon art is intended as critique, not criticism, just in case that doesn't translate well. doomfunk fucked around with this message at 02:02 on Mar 14, 2013 |

Western theatrics does have a big focus on the motility of the face, too, what with favoring overexpression and makeup and masquery to convey things when delivering a line. I think you're right, it all comes back to theatre.
