What was the state of your life before you found this website? (or va11)
| worse, but the improvements with my life have nothing to do with this godforsaken textboard
| /u/ ruined me
| I was in 9 grade, learning hard to pass the entry exams for a new good school, kind of a lyceum. But it was one of the best times of my life
| Basically the same as now. Entropy seeps from my every pore. I should get it checked out
| first job at customer service and played val with a coworker on shift. It hit me at the peak ludo narrative craze and impacted my conception of game design as a hobby.
|
| Played it with my wife, and it became our favorite game.
| my closest friend made me play va11 while i was in a depressive rut, and the emotions hit me hard enough that it made me forget how sad i was at the moment
i got better, then finding this board fucked everything up again
| i was going through every person's "nerd to alt-right ben shapiro fan" phase, but va11halla and danger/u/ got me out of it. looking back, i was lucky i got into danger/u/ instead of becoming an incel.
| I was a racist. Now I'm pro lgbt
| I was 15 in 2017
| More motivated I guess
| I remembery friend saying he didn't like it because he had a Nazi friend who was into it.
Can anyone square up why really right wing people liked this gay videogame? Do they just feel seen by the 4chan ref?
| ernst röhm was a queer icon until they decided they don't need queers anymore
just being gay does not make you a good person
| >>1007132 I was leftist. now I'm racist, sexist, homophobic and anti-semite "unabomber was right" g/u/rl.
| I was a child rapidly spiraling deeper and deeper into the depths of various mental illnesses
This site definitely didn't help lol, but we good now
| >>1007243 some of unabomber's points are right, but those are just byproducts of being raised under neoliberalism
| >>1007243 I may not agree with primitivism but I would not mind old Ted, robloxing Altman or musk today
| I got into Va11 nearing the end of the first year of the pandemic. I was a highschooler at the time, dealing with a lot of stuff internally where resources available to me were failing.
My day to day life was like clinging on air, basically. Yet, on the day I saw Va11 on sale, I bought it on a whim.
To be honest, without Va11 Ha-11a, I'd be dead. Nearing another attempt at least. Probably would still be in the closet as well.
This game saved my life, as ridiculous as it seems.
| When I played Va11 Ha11A for the first time I was studying and living my first year of college/university/higher ed. but I got the online classes because it was the peak of the pandemic era
I was distracted all the time, I failed to learn anything and messed it up, then I stopped studying and became a NEET.
However, playing the game made me feel a relief I wasn't expecting to experience, it made me feel that, despite everything, perhaps it all be okay in the end.

| I was curious what other people were doing with their lives when they found out about this website or the game its based off of.
When I found out about Va11 I was in high school. I think it was one of the first visual novels I had ever played.
I always knew that this website existed, but I only really started using it in college.
This site and that game are very nostalgic to me.
