This is a visual novel ABOUT normal people. I guarantee you the people who would play this are not what you'd call normal.

There are VNs that are generic life sim sandboxes where you play a normal person. They're mostly porn though.

Well... If you see doki doki literature club as porn, wtf??

Less mockingly, I also appreciated tank dating simulator. It's not a porn game but makes fun of them, all the "girls" are actually historical tanks and their friends/enemies as well as features/issues are historically accurate as best as I could tell. For example the French girl/tank keeps running into people(yes literally running into them) because the French tank she is modeled after had many issues with it braking system.

Arches isn't pornographic, but it can still hurt you in other ways.

i want to disagree with you on some of this, but then again i've met some of my inlaws. they've had anxiety dreams where angels appeared to them to tell them to pay rent and that was the first time anyone mentioned it was their responsibility, explaining some evictions.

As someone with worse than average social ability, I would like this.

I have a pot luck party rule, which is reiterated prior to every pot luck party, that whoever brings the potato/macaroni salad takes said salad home. This was instituted after I got stuck with three full containers of potato and three full containers of macaroni salad after a party. It all went bad in the fridge after NO ONE would take any home and no one in house eats either.

The problem is if you make this game, people WILL roast you for your potato salad recipe. 

vrek@programming.dev · 3 pts · 199d

But then you make a kickstarter to make potato salad...

GreenCrunch@piefed.blahaj.zone · 1 pts · 199d

never mention the recipe perhaps?

or lean into it, and mention every ingredient of that recipe except potatoes. so that's the only ambiguity is whether the potato salad contains potatoes.

At least two streamers would still be playing this for 14 hours straight.
