Yume Nikki is a rorschach test Anonymous 09/23/22 (Fri) 21:52:09 No.9867 [Reply]

Yume Nikki is a game that has a ton of different versions as well as disparate kinds of content. In addition to this it's not a linear game, and as such playthroughs will be more-or-less unique. In this sort of a context it seems inevitable that certain elements of the game will impress themselves upon some players more than others. Different people will take away different things from the game depending on their experience and interpretation. This individual and subjective nature of the game is directly suggested in the player exploring Madotsuki's dream worlds. (i.e. her unconscious.)

But the most explicit mention of rorschach test's in the game is perhaps the character FACE. Far from resembling phallic imagery, FACE far more clearly resembles an inkblot test. The idea that FACE looks like phallic imagery is obviously a libidinal interpretation, which gives more weight to the desires of the Id. (Lol dongs.) This also suggests the interpretive and subjective nature of the game.

I don't even know how often people come to this chan, but I thought I'd leave this here.

Here is a set of rorschach test cards. The resemblance to FACE is obvious when you compare the two

KIkiyama is Hiroko Nishikawa Anonymous 07/19/22 (Tue) 22:40:05 No.9818 [Reply]

Hiroko Nishikawa was a game designer at Asmik Ace Entertainment. Between the 1970s, 80s and 90s she'd often have some dreams and nightmares. She would usually write these down in her dream diary. It was the inspiration for Osamu Sato to make LSD: Dream Emulator. So, Yume Nikki might be how she felt over the years of her dreaming.

Need help finding a specific fan video Anonymous 07/18/22 (Mon) 12:02:02 No.9815 [Reply]

Hi, I was browsing through an old Yume Nikki fansite (http://www.theneitherworld.com/yumenikki/fan/fanvids.htm) when I saw they mentioned a Yume Nikki parody of Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei (or a Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei parody of Yume Nikki? I'm not sure.)

The link to it is dead though, and they didn't put the actual title of it either. If anyone knows what video they're talking about and can link it, that'd be great, because Yume Nikki and SZS are basically my two favorite things ever.

(Sorry if this isn't the right board for this, this is my first time posting on this site.)

Was 0.10 was really intended to be the final version of Yume Nikki, or did Kikiyama abandon the project before finishing their full vision of what the game was supposed to be?

Anonymous 07/08/22 (Fri) 02:13:57 No.9810

Nobody knows, though the name "0.10" doesn't really say "intended finished/final" to me

Anonymous 07/09/22 (Sat) 02:01:36 No.9813

We have no way of knowing. However, I feel like if Kiki had more to add, they would've done so years ago.

What should be done about the current zoomer problem this fandom has? It's either full of fatalists who live off by their synthetic drugs, or ironic fans who laugh at others who look too deeply into things. Both love making shitty memes either way
Nowadays it's hard finding fans who actually love the game for what it is, and are also not hinged by what they do in their everyday life and their beliefs. Anyone else here still has a soft spot for YN, even if you haven't played it in forever?

There aren't any problems with the "fanbase", only you OP. Let people interpret and enjoy things how they'd like instead of trying to impose your shitty thoughts onto everyone. This entire thread is pretty sad and pathetic with the amount of people unironically supporting gatekeeping and whining about teenagers.
Just to be clear, I played the game mostly blind when I had launched it for the first time, and I consider it to be one of the most fascinating, impactful games I've ever played. Teenagers on whatever boogeyman site(s) you're thinking of aren't going to change my perception of the game and my experiences.

honestly this is a good opinion to have in a world where nothing is safe from terrible fans, I wish I could adopt it but I still find some gatekeeping necessary

Anonymous 06/08/22 (Wed) 17:48:45 No.9796

>>9794
I agree with you.

I also feel empathy for the OP and like minded people as well. Change is hard to watch sometimes. I believe that this current hype will fade soon enough, like most things do. I don't think it's all a bad though, I think we all want YN to live on as long as possible and I hope the new fans that come out of it see what we saw in this game when we all first played it.

Sorry if I said anything wrong, I don't ever write here, but I think its nice that people still care so much about YN.

EXACTLY THAT

just because some people have different viewpoints and interpretations on a thing you like and engage with it differently doesn't mean they're inherently 'wrong' for engaging that way. they're having fun just like anyone else is

just because i use YN and its fangames as a means of exploring non verbal codes and signifiers and visual narrative analysis doesn't mean im right in that engagement, and someone making a funny meme about madotsuki doesnt make them wrong.

plus, dont let teenagers ruin ur favourite things, why would you let that happen. enjoying things is one of the few things we have so fighting isnt really helping anything. teenagers are teenagers let them be stupid

it isn't about 'your experiences' though. I agree with you in saying that your experience and thoughts on the game shouldn't be negatively effected by outward influences like le zoomers and what not. This is more about the fact that people like to congregate and express their feelings of said game with like minded people; it's entirely reasonable to be upset when a community you once felt attached to completely changes and entirely reasonable to gatekeep (to some extent, i don't mean harassing anyone or flat out telling them they're wrong but rather to want separate communities) your hobbies. Everyone has the right to enjoy the game as they want to and experience it as they want to; and that includes wanting to not interact with people who are simply not worth talking to in your eyes
