I like this art piece. Though i personally prefer gritty realistic games and books with fantasy elements like "Ice and Fire" and "Sabres of Infinity" (You must play this game ASAP). This is more of a modern comedy with only the technology of the past to spice up the story. The renaissance and 19th century was even more patriarchal than the medieval period. Women were expected to be totally subservient, and they were, because humans are 80 percent conformist, as is depicted rather well in Dostoyevskies Crime and Punishment who lived during this period. Being heterosexual and asexual were the only acceptable sexualities, being anything else results in instant social castration unless you are really powerful like king James of England. Also, if you have gone out of your way to add in modern-like gender equality as an issue during this time period, why not make it avaible to play as a male? I mean, i see no point, except the feminist meme of "MAN BAD".

Please explain which part of my "Beliefs' do you find fault with. Im am not saying what i believe in, i am siimply saying historical facts..I did not argue for or against modern feminism except the last part, but of course i think women today having equal rights by law is a miracle.

I agree about Sabres of Infinity. You can tell work was put into the decision tree and stats.

Indeed, and the setting and lore is very well built. It is quite the hidden gem my dear fellow.

Choice of Games
Hosted Games
Heart’s Choice <-- new.

Pretty much. After the first argument I had with a few of these stans who emerge from the Shadow Realm whenever the "company who shall not be named" pops up on this site I did a little research so I could use it as extra trolling firepower. This particular company is not even going with the façade that intimacy isn't at the forefront of their story. I mean... ALL of em are about the snu-snu with a possible thrice-removed nonbinary eldritch llama, but at least these blokes are being honest.
So...good for them! :)

These text games never get old. I deliberately use integrated graphics and listen to the radio while playing them.

A gameplay video for a text game. Make a video of yourself reading a book.

While most CoG games allow you to choose your gender, some titles are gender locked to either male or female. This is one of such examples, where the MC is exclusively female.
PS: CoG is just the publisher. The actual games are created by a myriad of authors who then publish their game under the CoG umbrella. (Just FYI.)

Unless you're a viable candidate for RuPaul's Drag Race, you're the scum of the Earth, pirate! Now check your privilege, apologize, and get back in line with the rest of the nameless cannon fodder enemies used as stepping stones for the sake of the self-inserted, one-dimensional Mary Sue!

I'm just imagining the Drake meme:

Reading nothing but black text on a white background: Nah
Reading nothing but text in front of an anime girl with size G bags, making awful noises and totally being into you: That's the ticket!

It's ironic that the people who worship a site that only lets you type 280 characters at a time would even give a shit about text adventures enough to try and fail at making them.
Even more depressing is that the concept of being a bouncer at a whorehouse could potentially be good in the right (Japanese) hands.

If you close your eyes, you can imagine how the people who make these games exactly look like.

Choice of Games/Heart's Choice adventure games: Cause nothing says "adventure" than deciding your Twitter bio so everyone knows who you like to bang is the most interesting thing about you.
Priorities. On. Point.

There was a game on itch.oi called En Garde that features a kick-ass female protagonist roaming around beating ass. Gives off a Prince of Persia 1 & 2 vibes. Nice, short, legitimately free, and really makes your feel like straight boss each time you play. Worth a shot than this.... barrel of fun.

If you wanna see where they've gone since this, look up Fireplace Games on Twitter; they've formed an indie game studio.
