A little guidence elsewhere

I’m not very eloquent in my speech nor do I have the knowledge (only own 2 PeaPri games). But I thought maybe if someone with both had sometime perhaps they can introduce adult bishoujo games to this thread at Empire?

The Thread in Question

thanks for the heads-up…i have posted there

I think you might want to give a little explanation of “bishoujo” rather than just, well, dumping the terms on them. ^^; Like maybe “These are all games focusing on the sexual experiences of girls in the 18-19-20-year-old range”. (You could probably come up with something better, I just threw that out off the top of my head. ^^; )

Of course on the other hand you could probably turn people off if you went on and on about the games…seems like something of a delicate balance…

i didn’t want to bombard with a lot of terms…i presented them as anime-style adult games, which seems enough detail for the time being the guy seemed to be looking for an adult gaming experience…i just let him know they were out there

That's probably the best way to approach it. My co-worker who says he's been a big fan of samurai movies and shows for over 10 years didn't know basic terms that would be used in those types of shows like 'ronin' and 'daisho'. Found out he just like the action and couldn't care a bit about the rest of the stuff.

Besides, if they're curious enough, they'll ask more questions and then you can lead them the wonder path of bishoujo-obsession! [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img]
