Confirms it's just some kid's project. Probably studying business or media and has to sell stuff as course work.

>>10351There are communities, there's no The Community. If you understand that we're a continent of drifting islands and not a cathedral then you should know you can't impose a spirit on anyone. The only thing that connects you to the kid who made this is that both of you related to a loner and her dreams.

thats fair. however, i dont think its unreasonable to say that i find yume nikki being used as a cash-grab disquieting

>>10355Considering it was designed by a highschooler. It's not too shabby of a promotional poster. People are blowing this out of proportion. If the handmade merch is made with care and not exorbitantly priced, I think it's fine. This game is almost a household name compared to the sacred cow it was when I played it as a literal child smdh

>>10343makes it worse imho
it's very easy for a big corp to distance itself from its playerbase; not good, but easy. it's a commonplace thing, so maybe i'm just numb to it
but if you really are just a kid who's using the game for money, that requires directly amoral interactions
with the community
idk
you're probably right
maybe i'm just turning into some weird conservative type
fucking hell im sick of capitalism
sorry anon

>>10359It will be because they're forced to do a marketing project by the school rather than a real money making scheme. I understand your reaction though, no worries.

So… Are we all now bullying a kid doing a forced school project for trying to make money off people but corporations known for being shady doing it is okay?

>>10384I don't think this kid has any capitalistic malevolence, this is probably just the course he's taking and he has to do a project like this, so why not rope your favourite video game into it?
I think what anon said
>>10356 makes a good point, no teenager makes a digital AND physical promotional poster on some obscure walking simulator if it didn't have any meaning to him.
It would make much more sense to sell something that other kids would actually buy and probably know, and not some shitty JRPG from before they were born.

>>10385None, as far as I'm aware, but, assuming that this is a business class project, he's still using the game for capitalistic means, something that deeply unsettles me.

>>10386True, I suppose, and maybe while there's no direct, malicious, money-making intent behind it, I still find it revolting. It really just doesn't right with me that, if the event goes ahead, this might serve as a good many people's first experience with Yume Nikki.

To all the Yume Nikkers in the board right now,
what about the selling merch and capitalism disgusts you about this post? Is it because Kikiyamer probably isn't getting any of the money from this dweeb and this kid most likely didn't get any permission from the astral being who is impossible to contact that abandoned this game long ago? Were any of you guys abandoned long ago?

>>10384Capitalism is when you make something nice and sell it for money. You should actually never even try to make money off of any fanworks ever (even though Japan has a huge doujinshi culture where people sell fanworks (including fanworks of Yume Nikki), which is fine because it's different). This likely 15-17 year old child is an evil capitalist because he liked something and wanted to give others works he made from it but had to make the money he lost on materials.
No.10446
>>10445What? Are you retarded? How does it being in America change if it's okay or not okay because it's not Japanese doujinshi?
>hurr durr, japan so quirky! if its not japanese, its not okei!!!That last part's probably right, but to call it "evil" is a huge overreaction. This is just some kid probably not thinking of the sins associated with capatilism, not that there's really any to begin with.
