MARIJUANA - The Truth [2012] - 100% Done

#1 Post by mugenjohncel »

This will be a short simple VN featuring a long haired guy spreading truth and awareness about Marijuana... it's history and why is it made illegal despite being far more safer than the usual legal substances people regularly abuse...

Let me clarify that this project is more of an educational awareness and truth campaign and NOT about joints and detailed instructions on where to get them, seeds or the paraphernalia nor was this about drug abuse...

Long story short... this is about the plant itself and it's direct byproducts...

While I can safely say that a large portion of the current forum are already aware of Marijuana's history I still feel a moral obligation to spread truth and awareness to uninformed people about what exactly is Marijuana... this is also personal to me for I know someone personally who I can best describe as a good family man, a respected member of society, a best friend but is now currently locked in jail for possession of tiny quantity of the said substance used to relieve his chronic pain since the usual medication doesn't even live up to it's promise and only hemp gives him relief...

I'll use NaNoRenO's self imposed deadline to motivate me to fast track this project...

While I don't advocate drug use, I can appreciate someone having a passion in life :lol:

This sounds... surprising :) . I don't know too much about Marijuana myself, but I do know that in some countries Marijuana is indeed used for medical purposes, and I find it strange that a person should be locked up because of it.


Very interesting project! I am anxious to see how this will turn out.

I'm more interested in hearing just how exactly Mugen's going to make a visual novel in jail!

Edit:
Oh nevermind, I read the topic opener more closely and found out Mugen was just talking about a friend of his.

I am all for this. While I do not think it is appropriate for recreational use (despite being generally SAFER than cigarettes) it does have many medicinal properties that some people are legally allowed to use it for if they go to the right doctors. Some studies I have read even say it helps memory if you use it once you get older (though they claim it also causes brain damage if you use it at a younger age too much, and I cannot be certain either of this is true).

I would love to see how this plays out. Maijuana is a far less dangerous than some make it out to be. In comparison to many other illegal substances that people try to get hold of it is the only one I think has an unneeded reputation.

Starting off a simple but overlooked truth. (Given alcohol kills your liver far faster than any damage marijuana does, and it is very low when used in proper moderation) I'm no advocate for substance abuse (I wouldn't even touch this stuff if you paid me), but I am one for spreading knowledge and the truth about these substances.

Done! Just proofreading...

Due to time constraints... I only have about 5 total days to work on this project... it turned into a rather shorted kinetic one... Is it OK to post it now or wait till April 1 at end of NaNoRenO?...

Hmm... this is bad... for people to seriously take my message about Marijuana... I think this is one of those rare times I have to reluctantly cut the amount of swearing in the script... there's a lot of FUCK YOU's in the script and a pinch of SHIT, BASTARDS and other colorful words spread throughout the work...

After removing them... re-reading the script now makes me look like an evangelical preacher praising and glorifying Marijuana... better edit a few words to make me as neutral as possible...
