Was I the only one who thought Eversion was just silly instead of scary?

It definitely looks creepy, but I guess you could take it as silly if you were in a certain mindset ^^

Games creeped me out a lot more before I learned how to program them... A lot of the mystery became removed and I just find myself thinking about the technical aspects so it's not as dark :lol:

Darkness only exist when there is light. And because of darkness, the light could shine most beautifully. So the answer is the balance of both. Man, what am I talking about...

I dunno, you tell me.... XD

To be honest, I prefer stories with darker undertones. I have no problems with moe or happily ever after types of scenarios, but they don't make me think, to question, like darker stories make me do.

Light with a dark edge and possible mood-whiplash. Something that is light on the surface with sinister undertones is probably my preference.

But more down-to-earth slice of life or goofy parody is nice too. Just not a big fan of diabetes fluff.

I occasionally frequently draw other people's characters. Now offering delinquentization, medievalization, and cyborgification. Hit me up in PM if you want sprites for your KN or non-ren'ai VN.

I like both to tell the truth. My likes in VNs range from the horror filles Umineko and Saya no Uta, to games with lots of comedy like Yo-Jin-Bo and Sengoku Rance, to games that are depressing to me like Clannad and Kanon.

I prefer the ones with the most interesting story, however, and I know games like Clannad can also be very funny.
