Though, sometimes, that also makes the victory that much more triumphant. Though, sometimes, that person is yourself, and you have to teach yourself over time. Watching the game's characters overcome their problems is astounding, and might even have you emotionally cheering them on! During a certain cutscene with Emi, I really could only think 'when there is a need to learn, there will always be someone there to teach you'. It really gets this feeling perfectly, but without it bordering on unnerving for the player. Though, overtime (much like the disabled individual), we grow ever more comfortable with the situation, and begin to not even notice it at all.

This is explored in the game as Hisao adjusts to his new school, but doesn't quite know how to interact with those with certain disabilities, but at the same time, doesn't want to appear rude.

Often, when we meet someone without an arm, or a leg, or some other disability, we feel awkward, and don't know whether to bring it up, or try to not stare, feeling like we are ignoring the elephant in the room. This is especially true for aesthetic or obvious differences, such as disabilities.

This includes humans, as we often point out, and are even blinded (which was probably a bad word choice) by the differences between us and another. The first example I would like to bring up is the awkwardness around disabled individuals.ДЄs humans, we have the innate desire to observe. I think it has actually brought disabled people into a new light for me, and I respect them much more now. It really breaks new ground as to how disabled individuals are presented in games. Overall, there aren't really any offensive jokes made (or, at least not by any of the sane characters), and some of the things these people do in the game (despite it being a game) truly astound me. Despite the sometimes awkward feeling we get around disabled people and we try not to bring it up (but I will talk more about this later).

Not only that, but it even shows that disabled people are infact that: people. It shows how people can overcome it to the point where it almost feels like second nature to them. It peels back the curtain for a glimpse into a characters personality.Дespite the aforementioned hopes for this game, it handles the subject of disability really well. Whether they are determined to over come their disability, completely casual about it, or even sometimes oblivious to it. The disabilities don't define them, but it gives the player a doorway into the soul and personality of the characters. The disabled characters seem to think almost nothing of their disabilities, being able to do things that would seem impossible, like painting with no arms, running with no legs, or even measuring hot water without sight. Now, I am not here to define each character by their disability, as that goes against the message of the game, but the disabilities do provide moral dilemmas for characters, much like real people. But the thing people always notice first (and, maybe rightly so) are each character's disabilities. The characters each have their own little quirks and styles. Okay, this is a huge par of visual novels since the whole thing is pretty much character interaction. So there isn't a whole lot of a problem there. Though, you can turn it off, so if you feel the way I do, then you can switch it off. In fact, I think it takes away from some of the sincerity of the characters. I have no problem with sex being used to move a story, but I feel like with the way they used it didn't need to be shown in the way that it was. The sex in Katawa Shoujo really seems kinda tacked on for me. Yeah, what would a visual novel/dating sim be without some sex, right? I'll tell you what it would be! It would be (fucking) Clannad, and that story is brilliant. Of you do, you will be the most satisfied with your ending. Though, answer all of the questions honestly. It might also be that I wasn't too fond of many of the characters by first impressions, but as the game goes on, you begin to like them more, just like people in real life. Now, giving the premise of a game is still something we have yet to master as a medium, and this exposition is still a lot better than many AAA titles I have played. This might just be a personal point, but I felt kinda disinterested through much of the game's exposition. So, I guess will begin with areas I believe that the game fell flat. And with some spare time over MLK weekend, I started and finished it. With error messages and Valentine's cards with jokes that seem particularly distasteful, I had no hopes for this game. After MatPat mentioned it on twitter, I downloaded it. My friend (who is a total weaboo, /a/ nerd) told me that I had to play it. I had no idea this game was in development till two days before it came out. Three top investment pros open up about what it takes to get your video game funded.
