ETHS, Obscure Sphinx and Orphan Hate (disbanded)
Nightwish is very mainstream

None of them are my cup of tea tho lol

>>37600
>both power and black metal
Do you listen to Dimmu Borgir? Vektor?
Vektor disbanded because the vocalist beat his girldfriend bloody in a fit of rage or something yikes

>>36661
La Torture Des Tenebres, one woman band from canada, mixes raw black metal with dark ambient and sometimes introduces industrial influence. I recommend the album IV - Memories of a Machine girl, its a concept album of a more futurustic dystopia.

omg thank you nona this sounds exactly like my taste!!

I always loved her attitude, shes so adorable

oh my god she really is literally me, I even have a very similar relationship with my father.

Self explanatory, I've also others like Yukari Akiyama or Patchouli.

Rika Furude

I don't like anime, but she's really got that shit on, so good for her.

Beato…

I've only ever played civ6 but this thread is making me regret not getting 5

>>38275
civ 5 is the best one artistically and aesthetically

>>37609
What we think about civ 7. Everyone's chimping about the gameplay, I watched gameplay of it and it is strange. It strays from the usual selection system.
I've exhausted my fun out of civ 6 so I will try civ 5, you influenced me nona now I will have to put a halt on being a functional human being.

>>38297
I honestly liked the changing civs gimmick, but I guess it'd be better off as an option in a campaign and not central to the entire game. It'd be even better if they gave you the option to change leaders instead imo cause that just makes sense.
I kinda like how they added Machiavelli.

I recommend the Vox Populi mod for civ 5. The original civ 5 is barebones and the expansions slightly improve it, but Vox Populi adds:
1) vassalage
2) monopolies
3) smarter ai that you can't just bribe to wage war on anyone you don't like
4) important: better unit upgrades cause the original ones suck
5) improved culture trees. made warring even more fun than it was. the original made tradition too good
6) improved civ abilities
I think that's about it

Getting real vox populi cravings right now

I watched the anime, and the 2D modeling with a 3D aspect is actually quite interesting. It's a shame it's so old and so dark that there were times I couldn't understand what was happening on screen. The only thing I could understand from the story was that Malice no longer wanted to exist as a sexbot in an unhealthy environment and needed to break free. I won't even comment on the hypersexualization of the characters, because, you know, it's an old and obscure anime, I kind of should have gotten used to it or simply stopped watching cartoons designed by Asian moid.

"I kind of should have gotten used to it or simply stopped watching cartoons designed by Asian moid."
That made me laugh out loud. I'm glad you found the visuals interesting, even if the story was confusing. The themes of artifical lifeforms, objectification of the female body, the inherent horror of mortality are what stood out to me.

>>38038
But I found it really sad, even though the anime isn't that deep. I'm emotional and a crybaby, and I found the sexbots wandering aimlessly through a run-down red-light district particularly heartbreaking. I also found Malice kissing the bot who worked in the plumbing and the way she treated Heather very sweet. But the anime has that old hypersexual tone of 90s cyberpunk anime. Men are already a bit weird, to say the least, but Japanese anime seems even more so. There are few anime I've seen in which women and girls aren't hypersexualized, although I don't like to make a big deal out of that kind of thing, because I think it gives too much power to the "malegaze"

I watched the first chapter on youtube. It really has a 90s/early 2000s feel. I like it but I don't get why being raped by a machine made Malice human.

I’ve been getting into all these old 3d cgi things

>>38825
You really underestimate the power of a pervert's head. The grotesque and erotic walk side by side.

>>38828
Him on a leash, how cute! That's a good big boy!

you can put it into the embed field next time right under the image field
but you have to delete the "si" parameter in the link

Madworld is a bit obscure, but it has pretty good high energy hip hop soundtrack.
My favorites: Get it Up, Madworld, Look Pimpin, So Cold.

flood error

>>38312
also usually the game during boss fights has THREE people talking simultaneously
1) the song
2) the "commentator" characters in the background
3) the boss himself
I would finish the game if it weren't for this

>>38310
I LOVE MGRR. my fave song is a stranger i remain.
>>38312
Absolutely did not expect to see another Madworld fan on this site. Great taste.

>>38814
They're called arrangements, not remixes

>>38719
Got me jumpscared for a sec, thought lil guy was naked, lmao.

desperately need to know where you found this

ive been collecting since i was able to.. liked anime since i was young, my favs are probably my rena 1/4 and my scarlet sisters… not many figures i really want anymore, started focusing on tapestries

i collect figs as well! my favorite right now is a kizuna ai that i picked up for super cheap on depop, but my all time favorite is a carnival phantasm arcueid fig i bought many years ago. shes the fig that started my collection :) (pictured in this very obnoxious 3ds snap)

>>38646
so, bagel girl but she doesn't turn hot?
if uglymug, epicfighter got an adaptation, something like what you want probably could too, if it got enough support.

>thinks vn girls are actually pretty
>Vn
Try getting serializations first.
Or a fucking cosplay. On a goddamn bike. Or transformer.

>I really wish there was a visual novel game that features an ugly female protagonist
Otometeki Koi Kakumei Love Revo (an otome game) features a female protagonist who is fat and ugly, but the goal of the game is to lose weight :/ That's the closest I can think of.
https://vndb.org/v3549

On the western side, there's Sword Daughter, a really short otome game on Steam that has a very western art style (not in a bad way, though). Tyrna the protagonist isn't exactly what I'd call "ugly", but rather, a bit "plain", although some would say the art style makes her look ugly simply because they think realistic = ugly. The main love interest is a pretty elf guy, but to be honest, the romance elements aren't very strong, but I liked it a lot nonetheless. Iirc it's an adaptation of a real choose your own adventure book or something like that, which imo, gave it a distinct feel different from your average anime-inspired OELVN.
vndb.org/v16561

There's another otome OELVN called Yrsa Major where the protagonist is a woman who's not conventionally attractive. She's a big and strong lumberjack who wants nothing but to protect her poor village. Although you probably won't like it if you hate unconventionally attractive submissive ojisan characters kek. It's an absurdly specific niche that caters to my preferences, but I know there's plenty of women who would find it disgusting (although to be fair he's a magical being that took on that form for no particular reason other than being the dev's fetish, so he isn't really an older man). If you don't mind this though, you'll probably like it because it's an extremely comfy VN!
https://vndb.org/v31602


Don't know if you're interested but there have been a lot of indie Japanese otome games (many of them free) where you can't see the protagonist at all (or you can only see their arms sometimes), POV-style. But of course you're gonna have to know Japanese or use something like VNR to read them lol.

>I'm honestly debating making one on my own but idk where to start
Start by writing the story, worry about the art, music and programming later. Making a simple VN on Ren'Py is easy as shit.
Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

I've been thinking about making one of my own and the protag would definitely be ugly

you should make it! renpy is free and there is a lot of tutorials out there. i would play it 100%.
