>>47402Decoration style with emphasis on candles, wooden crates and old-timey typewriters. Usually soothing background music is listened while drinking red cocktails or taking a nap in such spaces.
>>47399I can see how "Kishotenketsu" is pretentious if you just mean to say a "story without a villain". The "engine grain" refers to how games made in the same engine tend to look similar, especially if devs don't fiddle much with the defaults, and I think it's an OK word. One must have a super-human sensing for when people are being pretentious if that word triggers something, though I can imagine such a person existing. But "invisible walls" is just self-explanatory. And "sound chip", wtf?
>>47420doesn't 'sound chip' refer to older consoles that had a dedicated sound card, like the sega genesis' yamaha ym2612?
