I don't want to go bowling tonight T.T

I mean, I don't mind a company "outing", but I hate bowling. Like really hate it.

i think a large part of it is that the vn readerbase has the highest proportion of 'hardcore' otaku, buyfags etc and all the stereotypes that come with the label

just don't be a stereotype then.

actually what's funny is that in all my years of engaging in nerdy hobbies, i've always found a group within the hobby that acts like they're the only cool, normal, socially adjusted group. it took me a while to realize that there are many of those and that you really limit yourself if you view yourself or your group as the only normal ones.

that's not to say there are some weird people out there.

Bowling is stupid. I don't know why people like it. No strategy, no interaction with other players. If I wanted to socialize I would much rather just sit on a couch with some friends than have to worry about who's turn it is and shit.

I'm straight awful at bowling, but it's so much fun.

@kain: I think the speakers I have were $70 when I got them. I'm not looking for super high quality. But I'll look into those suggestions, thanks.

Plenty of manga and anime about sports and girls, Soniv!

You would play your DS while other people bowl? How is that not awkward.

Don't get me wrong I don't go out of my way to go bowling but it's not the worse thing ever. Usually I just dislike having a raw throat and smell like cigarette butt.

The fact that bowling becomes tolerable when drunk doesn't make bowling good. You could be drinking AND doing something that wasn't invented by three fingered Neanderthals.

Yeah playing DS while others bowl is awkward as hell. But maybe it's worth not having to bowl.

I don't think it applies retroactively. I've reached sector 8 with about half the type B ships, and I don't have any type C layouts unlocked.


Confirmed to not work retroactively. I've beaten the game with every ship and every layout and I don't have any C type ships.

Ugh, I REALLY don't want to play stealth cruiser B and zoltan B again, those gave me nightmares.


WTF Zoltan B is one of the best ships in the game. Never take damage in early sectors because of your OP as fuck Zoltan Shield, plus a weapon layout that's very adaptable and works with anything you find.


Sorry, I hated every inch of it. While my high score for it isn't the lowest among the ships I played I definitely got stuck on it far longer than any other ship variant. I had no problem in early sectors but later sectors were a major issue, I know at least a few times I was unable to significantly damage the enemy ships before they sunk me. The most frustrating time I could damage the shield system with the pike beam but it didn't matter at that point since that was the extent of my reach and they repaired it too fast for attrition to work. Other than that I don't know what to say because I finished the game ages ago. Until it performs better in my experience I maintain that it sucks, there are other ships with which I completely steamrolled the rest of the game so even if Zoltan B is not bottom tier I find it hard to place it anywhere near the top.

What ships are better than Zoltan B?

There's Crystal B (totally overpowered), Crystal A, Engi A (debatable) and then maybe Mantis B if you get lucky with early crew pickups.

There's no way you were stuck on Zoltan B for longer than some of the trash ships like Engi B or Rock.

Req, please don't say you should have brought your DS while people bowled. Just go and try to have fun. Yes bowling sucks, I know this. But...... Come on and enjoy the socializing aspect of it. If that doesn't work get really drunk and let your body forget it ever happened. That's what I do. If I don't remember the night then it doesn't count and no one is allowed to be mad at me.

It works 60 percent of the time, every time

I think it's a good motto. Worst case you toss out some blanket sorry texts in the morning. It blows over after a few hours because everyone has been there done that. Or at least understands. Lol
