/yndd/ - Yume Nikki - Dream Diary

The game isn't going to be exactly like the original, I can't believe they would change things.

My biggest fear is that they outright confirm things that were originally up for speculation and fan theories like: What's Madotsuki's age, Was Mado was raped, etc…

To summarize, my main concern is that Mado will be a female and not a transbian pansexual rapist in this one, which will be a horrendous slap in the face of Kiki-chan's original vision.
My final and biggest fear is that they'll retcon out her legendary career with the Ramones.
Finally, more than anything, I'm worried that there will be a crossover with the Gingerdead Man franchise, which will ruin this fandom for me like it did the Evil Bong series.
And lastly, most of all, I am worried that there will be voiceovers and dialogue for the cast.

You're still here?

You aren't as funny as you think you are.

Yeah

If you couldn't find your way out, here's the door.

I'm worried about the weird quality discrepancies we're seeing in the screenshots where some look great and some look bad, and I'm also worried that this game won't be big enough to warrant paying 20 dollars for it. I'm fine with everything else that we've been shown or that's been implied so far.

I'm a bit skeptical towards the humanization of everything, but it's hopefully not that pressing

While I'm a little apprehensive about the 3D graphics and stuff, I'm all for supporting Kikiyama. I'm excited to see what the characters will look like, and especially for any new soundtracks. 10 more days!

I can't believe Madotsuki starred in a game that was so terrible that they placed a warrant for her arrest and immediate execution even before it was released.

thanks for the pic, it will make an excellent smug reaction picture for my reaction picture folder

I'm a bit sad they seem to be removing most of the effects and the cartoony designs are being erased

kyuukyuu kun sounded awful and i hope it's not a harbinger of terrible sound design

also fan theories getting hamfisted into everything. yume nikki is somewhat of a stream of consciousness and not everything was delibarate and i can see kikiyama being retroactively influenced from fan theories, which would suck. makes the whole thing less personal.

should've been a new thing entirely.
yn is a really personal thing for many people and having a new derivative work being pranced around as being the new word of god, essentially forcing a specific interpretation makes me a bit more anxious than it should.

fuck.

Treat it like the manga. The original game stands alone just fine and it's clear the developers are aware of this. It's just a new game for YN fans old and new.

Also approval is not intention. Kikiyama might approve the things in the game, but that doesn't mean it was their vision. They're just letting other people play with YN, which is part of the magic (Look at all the fangames)

My fear is that the game has some bullshit story.
I mean, does this look like a stab wound to you too?

I just now noticed that there has been no art of Masada or anything relating to him. Just all of the sexual/creepy shit from the main game (or if it wasn't originally, they're definitely making it sexual/creepy)

I'm kinda scared they might've cut Masada and Mars altogether because it didn't fit in with their grim and gritty vision of the game. The Mars event is one of the best, mostly because it's so somber and sweet. It can't really be made horrific. The manga tried to make it bad for some inexplicable reason, which wasn't well received? Does the Japanese fanbase hate it or something?

And I'm really hoping that they won't really play for all of the edgy theories like Mado was raped/Mado was trans/Mado was a lesbian/etc. The emphasis on Monoe and KyuuKyuu have me worried that they will though. I don't want to play a 20 buck generic creepypasta about lesbian daterape.

Mado finds her own bloodstain in her dreams and turns out the HUGE plotwist is that Yume Nikki was actually all a dream all along.

Plot? In my Viva Caligula-ripoff hack'n'slash massacre simulator?

It's more likely than you think.

I don't think the game needs a plot but if they try to develop one, i will want a refund.

"Random = Funny" I see

>>1455
You wander around, exploring and finding shit, then killing people with said shit.

If we're going to be serious for a bit, maybe this is pop was ripping off Yume Nikki a little with Viva Caligula. Just focusing on the violent aspect, which was minimal in YN. In case you were not aware.

>implying random is bad

Everything can be good if its well done. Even random humor.

My biggest fear was already confirmed.uboa was reduced to be just a jumpscare
