~~The real Katawa Shoujo~~ , just like the real DDLC

This meme from u/gambs gave a good chuckle, and I was trying to figure out how to follow-on from the original joke when I came across this old meme template and realized it was perfect.

Alternate solution 1: Everyone's 18 years and older, but it's not specified whether those are in Earth years or some other planet's years where time is faster...

Alternate solution 2: They're held back if they're in highschool, but they're prodigies if they're elementary/middle school and were promoted to high school because of their intelligence beyond their years.

Alternate solution 3: They're not dumb, just extra studious in wanting to make sure they learn everything before they graduate when the VN ends.

Nevertheless, what a tragic and strange afflict- HANK! NOOOOOOOO!!!!!

This feature proposal from the VNDB beta has made it into the live site! We can now start tagging VNs known to have DRM:

Alrighty, still not really polished or finished yet, but it doesn't look like the main data model or guidelines will change much so I've pushed it live now.

If you want to filter for DRM-free visual novel releases, you can do that now.

I consider this mission accomplished. \o/

The wording "Digital Restrictions Management" was almost snuck into the guidelines proposal, and unfortunately I can't claim to have had anything to do with that :)

The official guidelines are available here. Interestingly, the final wording is:

Some releases have DRM (Digital Rights Management or, more accurately, Restrictions Management)

Now for the fun part: documenting which releases are encumbered with DRM. If you know one of the VNs you've purchased has DRM or is DRM-free, please help by editing the VNDB releases entry to reflect this!

Hopefully, we'll all be able to make more informed purchasing decisions now.

Same smile, same tooth fang, same age...

If only it was the same VA (Minegishi Yukari) instead of Kaguya's VA (Aoi Koga).

A little surprised they went with this character archetype as the MC, but I'm not complaining.

Would the plural of "Completionist" be "Completionists"?

If you're a fan of anthropomorphic animals and the detective noir genre, I highly recommend the visual novel Chicken Police! Includes an interrogation mechanic, great voice acting, an interesting world, great humor, and awesome jazz music. There is a brief instance of partial nudity, but it isn't vulgar.

Available on Steam, along with a free demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1084640/Chicken_Police__Paint_it_RED/

Watch a full-length, no commentary playthrough of the game here: https://youtu.be/aCrjz7dJdVg

There's also a sequel in the works called Chicken Police: Into the Hive!

"The boobie physics must be impeccable in this rig you build, capisce?"

"Absolutely, m'Lord. But what about if they are fla-"

"Shh! Don't let Rush-...her hear you... do you want to get us all killed?! But to answer your question, their frames can go to the other girls."

"Terribly sorry, m'Lord. Very good."

"Excellent. Now then, time for exercise."

"At once, m'Lord."

Is it worth upgrading from 16GB RAM if the only games you play nowadays are VNs...? Decisions, decisions...
