Something tells me that it'll result in massive fail. I've never seen Miyake on in that place. And by the time Branondorf gets on; it's late and it's time to head to bed.

DERP.

Kinda reminds me that last year me and some of the other people are going to start a Touhou VN project, it was me who first brought up the idea of it being a yuri VN and some other dude were interested on developing it, although the original idea were sidetracked as we all discuss about things later on. It's not just 3 people, there's about 8 or 10 people involved in it IIRC~

So to say, even while the project leader was somehow very motivated on doing so, and many of the members are quite active in the discussion, it seems the project doesn't end up well at all, mostly because we all have issues about the leader being too much of a control freak who poses too ambitious idea for it. So yeah, there you have it~

So basically. Pay money; shit works out well?

Money eh? I don't know about that really, but I prefer not to involve money while just getting started on things~

It's all about professional people doing some actual work for living.

Oh yeah I could see that~

To some extent, money might work to help people work shit out because it concerns their basic necessity for survival. The basic nature of saying 'those who don't work, don't eat', there's many things that money could do for us, I have to admit it. It's also known that money can also enslave people to bend their will and do things that they don't want to~

As there's still time left before I should start worrying about making a stable finance I will concentrate on doing things I can do for now~

Though these kinds of things are not exactly hated upon by those who does such works. Because these sets of people who takes commission for working to make stuff like VNs obviously likes VNs, but also likes money. So perhaps it's like two birds with one stone. But regardless, even if one has passion for it; they'd want to make income out of it.

A basic thing in this world I suppose.

Putting it simply it's like that, there's already a motivation for them to do it regardless of the circumstances, and there's the circumstances which urges them to do it. Letting the issues aside, I think money would be a good motivation for most people on doing things when they originally had passion for it. Besides, money could also create a sense of security when doing the things you like will also guarantee your welfare, it helps in one way or another to make you focus on things which grants you the most merit~

Yeah I do agree on your points

Yeah. And when you try to get them to do it for free... well, thinking naturally, they can find an actual job instead that pays for their favorite work.

The guy who'd want people to work for his project for free would feel like the people from around him was stolen lol.

That's a common sense indeed, why must do it for free when you can profit from doing a similar thing? But really, when there's no money involved given that in our current circumstances it's hard enough to pay someone in a regular basis, there must be some kind of incentive to keep the folks working, which made them feel like it's a rewarding experience by working with us~

Which also shows that while working with many people, there's more to come rather than the sum of their actual skills alone in order to make it into a successful venture~

Yeah. Experiences. Lots and lots of experiences, and perhaps even fun times.

But yeah, money is at the center of all this. And in regards to paying those employees periodically... well, you'd need some source of money as capital to start off with.

As for experience in working with other people, I think most of us could also relate to that, some of those were recent =D

Money is a difficult thing indeed as I didn't even have a regular source of income yet, it's also not that easy these days in order to make money while still keeping most of your free time intact in order for it to be allocated to things we really wanted to do~

Also, hump de bump~

I got lazy to reply in the end.

Dun worry about it~

On a side note, Russian torrent sites sure is the boss, I got so many rare files with decent DL speeds from there~

Oh? Interesting.

Here's the site, you have to register in order to DL files larger than 100 mb though, just use the translate feature on google chrome to make things easier~

I usually use that site to DL many rare and hard-to-get music albums I can't find anywhere else~

Lol. I see.

That's pretty much where I'm ended up because of my annoying hipster preferences hahaha xD

Anyways, check this out, this is the kind of inspirational source I've been digging up recently

Here is something I sent to GiantBeardedFace.

"It was dusk as the Protagonist made his way back to the war tents. His garments were caked in mud, his armour lost its lustre, his helm was cracked and his complexion pale. All signs of a humbled warrior who had been pursued by his enemies after being defeated in battle.

He made a valiant effort to head back to his lords and masters, trying to stride masterfully like a general who is unscathed by defeat. All that he managed though, was a limp. As he passed through the guards, who were slovenly and lax, he smelt the stench of wine that has passed through the lips of a man sober no more.

His raised his brows but any sign of disapproval was masked by the mud that caked his face. As he entered the war tent that housed his lords and masters, his eyes widened and his heart froze.

What beheld his eyes was worse than any defeat imaginable, at least to him. There were dancing women. There was music pleasant to the ear. Food and drink that would intoxicate anyone who laid his lips on it. Laughter and merriment resounded through the tent. But the protagonist found the dancing women lewd and obscene, found the alluring music most jarring, saw the food and drink as poison and the laughter he heard was as racuous as a choir of crows squawking all at once!

Aren't they supposed to be at war?

Kind of reminds me of a story I read from a religious scripture, where the warrior was supposed to be an envoy of their god and soon began to relay a message that their misconduct indeed has angered the holiness which causes the great lord to smite them good~
