In a recent FAQ spotted by Automaton, Housenka responded to a hypothetical of “I’ll promote you, give me a Steam key” with a delightfully blunt: “Buy it, you piece of garbage.” Or, as Automaton translates it from the original Japanese, “Buy the game, you piece of sh*t.” I can’t decide which I like better, honestly. The full FAQ is worth a read, if only for Housenka’s sense of humour and an insight into the absurd questions independent devs get asked these days.

“Make this character’s ass and thighs thicker,” another frequent-question-asker demands, to which Housenka responds: “Accept her as she is.” When asked by a phantom answer if the game will add sex, Housenka also proceeds to provide a link to DLsite, an online store that sells doujinshi—self-published manga comics that are often (though not always) pornographic in nature. “No sex. Please visit DLsite for that.”

    I think being insistend on not indulging in any piracy is straight up dumb. Lemme explain my perspective, big game studios and publishers donmt really need your money,and the devs already did get paid making the game. Buying thoose games you are just pouring your money to the bottomless pit that’s publisher’s and game studio-corporatikn’s wallet. Indie games for example don’t fall into this category and are objectively unethical to pirate. Ofc it’s your choice I am just sayin

      That’s fine man. Games aren’t a necessity like food or shelter, guess I’m dumb for not indulging in every game I’m not very interested in 🤷🏽
