Aside from those dangers that threaten to imminently destroy the town, the village's goddess also asks that the party assist in a number of other, more minor problems if they can: a young orphan girl abused by her guardians whose brother has recently gone missing, a single father ensorcelled by a seductive demoness with lethal intentions toward his daughter, twin sisters forced apart by family politics and a young man troubled by memories of past loops that he should not have.

Further, the party must deal with the hallucinations and paranoia which threaten to tear them apart: not all is as it seems, and no single party member can trust their own senses alone...

There are ways to get a party to fight itself over false accusations of conspiracy, but you have to work at it.

And you shit on it.

Fuck you. Higurashi was awesome.

Is there a reason why the party is able to retain their memories?

Because I can't really see them catching on the first loop around, and suggesting that they were revived yet kept their memories of the whole thing seems a bit...I dunno. I wouldn't say "cheating", exactly, but...

Get this animu shit out of /tg/

Fine, whether that was samefag or not, here's someone else. And I say Higurashi is awesome.

Even so, it's hard for me me to get into a campaign based on a show I'm familiar with.

>>7414077
I suspect it's because the players are going to metagame like motherfuckers if you don't.

>>7414138
Well, yeah, no doubt about it. Still, I mean, is there an in-game reason?

What the fuck do they do, mine adamantine for exports?

why is this weeaboo? the pictures? This is an interesting plot.

Not /tg/ related

>>7414297
Because the plot is related to the pictures, which makes people rage.

/tg/ is a little /b/ right now, don't mind it.

>why is this weeaboo? the pictures? This is an interesting plot.

It's the plot of an anime. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni.

>>7414300
>Not /tg/ related
"This is a campaign idea" isn't /tg/ related? How many times have we adapted things before for our games?

>>7414267
Actually, refluffing Higurashi as a Dorf Fort that the players got sent to investigate/reclaim makes a horrifying amount of sense.

>>7414300
Leave this board. Nobody will weep.

I should not have to remind you all of this

>>7414378
Who the fuck are you?

>>7414333

Everyone in Hinamizawa is a Dorf. Seriously, half of the cases could be described as tantrum spirals.

>>7414218
The villagers have lived with the plague prior to the time loop; the plague is magical and disrupts the time loop magic which otherwise would prevent them from retaining their memories. As outsiders, the players start at each reset without it (though they quickly contract it again) which is enough of a loophole for them to retain their memories.

An alternative is to make the time loop events a game between two deities (other than the village deity). They have gotten bored with the game and have added new pieces (the players) with new rules (memory retention).

>>7414631

Or the plague needs to have advanced to a certain stage before it disrupts the memory retention. The players are already infected, but not to the extent the rest of the village is.

This also explains why there's a boy in the village who is remembering bits and pieces of the previous loops - he's new in town, but not new enough.

This is why we can't have nice things. Whatever happened to the good old days, /tg/?

Original HNNKN was good - it was the kind of show that, when you watched it the first time, threatened to make you nearly shit yourself... and then it made good on those threats.

Kai was not as great. I didn't feel the sheer terror from it like I did from the original. Well, that's desensitization for you...

And the Rei OVAs were... wacky. Not really scary, no real decisive plot, just... out-of-place comedy.

>>7415269

Actually, Kai was closer to the original VNs and manga than the first anime was. A lot of things got left out of the first season that were never explained in the anime AFAIK but were touched on in the VNs. Keiichi's being attacked by one of the Sonozaki sisters in the hospital at the end of Watanagashi-hen was actually a hallucination, for example, and Keiichi DID kill Teppei in Tatarigoroshi-hen - Satoko was hallucinating him still being there.

>>7415062
We sage bombed this shit in the old days you faggot.

>>7415809

The only thing we ever saged back in the day was CP and furries, and even for the latter we usually made an exception with Sergals.

/tg/ is about whatever the fuck we want to talk about. Like /b/, only not retarded.

No. You are not allowed to post stupid shit here. Go back to /b/.
