Just got this kickstarter update from the messianic Jake Caro. Fingers crossed he delivers.
Anonymous Agony thread?
Does anyone feel like streaming some of File #1?
To those who bought the character backer reward, what characters are you going to make?
And what does the last line of pic related mean?

I'm assuming this is file 1 except not a buggy piece of shit with all the sidequests actually working like the one where you had to find some red eyed girl. Last line of the post probably relates to a secret he added in or something.

Should we explain to him our role in this, and more importantly Kike Kake boy's role in this? Should we send him a link to the archive the of last thread http://archive.is/2mOZg ? Maybe he will do an AMA like Lisa's developer?

Am the anon who streamed File #1 and File #0 twice on the day it was funded on Kickstarter. The Twitch delay isn't that bad (about ~8 seconds) but you better have some clue as even I had trouble completing the game even though I had already played it. For reference, the second stream (after I had already beaten it but forgot to save the VOD) lasted 7 hours, and that's with already having beaten the game earlier (which took 9 hours due my iffy memory), so you better have some time in your hand if you plan to do it all in one go. I would stream but I think I got enough YEYE for the bit and I need to record the VOD.

A couple of suggestions for what the characters could be were:

As the other guy said, please don't. The worst fucking thing we can do is be so up front about /v/ that we come across as cringy teenagers.
>>15232657
There is so much cheesy and bad in this game, but it's so earnest it comes across as B-movie schlock, at least when played in a group. But really, there's some nuggets of gold there that came from the heart. Like some of Haze's chats online where he talks about his worldview. Charm like that sticks with me, executed well. It's a good kind of edge.
>>15232687
A Teagan expy we could get away with, providing we stick to the character's core and not the peripherals. A jewish stereotype would be a cringe that doesn't fit with the AA setting. Bane I have no idea how he'd fit

The voice acting was actually decent in the original, they were amateurs but they were having fun and really trying. Hopefully he actually gets a VA for "pedophile #1" this time so Haze isn't awkwardly yelling at a character with no voice.
What I really hope is that Nieve is still willing to rewind the flow back. It wouldn't be the same without Playback.

Need to mull over some trivia and flesh him out a little. I also need to play the game again to remember the flavour, or particularly how the setting treated criminals. It's worth noting I don't know just what kind of scale at max Jake can give guest characters, or if he just wants someone in the background, but that's where I am at the moment.

I want to suggest a character from a thread back in 2015. It was an adventure thread where the protagonist was a hyper feminist and raped a prostitute. Then the prostitute and feminist did a fusion dance and became a feminist prostitute. It was a great thread and had quite a bit of OC. I think we could easily have a character based on that. I hope I'm not the only one who remembers.

Maybe some real fucked up pedophile incident? Like, Amstetten monster tier or worse.
As stupid as it seems, these people do have some morals. I mean, they are twisted on almost all levels, but they still keep some red zones they won't go in no matter what kind of fucked up shit they have seen or done. These red lines usually involve rape or pedophilia, so it is not all that farfetched if the incident is really fucked up.

Well, you have a character whose job is literally to turn a blind eye to what his bosses are doing. He knows full well what's going on; someone witnessing something and immediately turning on his boss fits someone who thought they were on the up and up, not someone who's one job is to keep fucked up things secrets. For someone like this, you need a breaking point that makes him go "alright, fuck this". So yes, either personal involvment with the victim, or a crime that's really heinous (I'm thinking the murder of Junko Furuta, that was some heinous shit).
Of course, that's just the premise. A payoff like this >>15233088 would be neat, but that's probably in Jake's hands.

Twitter: https://twitter.com/MattShipmanVO
Email: mattshipman@me.com
Send an email as well as a tweet. If you don't have a twitter, it'd be worth making one or a burner so you can message him there.
If you're tweeting, just say you're glad AA Reloaded got funded and you hope he returns as Haze.
If you're emailing, say this:
>Say hi, wish him well, and that you're a fan of his work (bonus if you can name anything he's done besides AA and Darling in the Franxx)
>Let him know you really enjoyed his performance in Anonymous Agony as Haze, that he made the game for you, and you really hope he returns to his role for Reloaded
>Be polite like you're a well adjusted individual and well meaning fan
>I'm fucking serious, be polite
>Remember Matt did this gig six years ago, he probably barely remembers it, so try not to be meme-heavy
>Spread the word
Tell everyone you can who knows the game to do the same. The more who try, the better the odds. Sadly, this also means getting cuckchan to chip in.

Voice actors tend to like having multiple roles since that's how their industry works; no one role pays a lot, so they put food on their plate by doing many things. Dude looks busy just going by his profile, but going by how Jake's slicing the budget, the VAs are getting the lion's share of the pay. If Matt gets a good portion of that for perhaps a day or two of recording, that's a good deal.
