Digital: A Love Story (Visual Novel) | comment |
A 2010 Visual Novel by Christine Love, developed in Ren'Py and available for free.The story is set in the early days of the Internet, in the era of dial-up modems and BBS boards. You shoot the breeze, harass idiots, engage in a bit of playful hacking, and even strike up a relationship with a user named "*Emilia". However, when BBS boards suddenly start going down one after another, cutting you off from the people you've met, it slowly becomes clear that a sinister force is threatening this brave new digital world.See also don't take it personally babe, it just ain't your story and Spiritual Successor Analogue: A Hate Story, both by the same author. They also take place in the same universe but are loosely connected. | |

Digital: A Love Story (Visual Novel) / int_13a054df | comment |
Addressing the Player: You're asked for your full name at the beginning, just like a real computer would. Mr. Wong, apparently familiar with your father, also addresses you by name, as does *Emilia when she is recompiled on your Amie. In the end, your name's used again, in a short article describing the events of the game as part of a compilation by *Blue Sky, and a short soliloquy by *Desdemona. | |

Gone Horribly Right: *Reaper was created to eliminate pieces of an AI that were replicating too fast for the system to handle. It did its job well, continued to do it once it was no longer necessary, and even spilled outside its original bounds. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
Digital: A Love Story (Visual Novel) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: Certain users have their handles start with an asterisk. All of them are artificial intelligences. Near the beginning of the game, after logging into the Matrix for the first time, a person there talks about a VRAM overflow bug in computers. If you message him about it further, he'll give you the patch for it, which requires closing the entire program and reloading your save. Later, this renders *Delphi's attempts to kick you off the Underground Library mostly useless. You'll still be kicked, but what the patch will prevent/fix is an Interface Screw caused by buffer overflow. | |

In-Universe Factoid Failure | |
Digital: A Love Story (Visual Novel) / int_314afdb | comment |
In-Universe Factoid Failure: A kid who thinks he's hot shit warns the Matrix BBS users that they should start speaking Japanese soon, and that Japan's gearing up to take over the world. One problem: he uses "ni hao", which is Mandarin Chinese, and gets mocked and called out for it (in addition to the other users pointing out that Japan being dominant is ridiculous). | |

A.I. Is a Crapshoot | |
Digital: A Love Story (Visual Novel) / int_420c50b7 | comment |
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: *Mother, the originator of all AI, saw that she was replicating too fast, too quickly and that her "children" were eating up too much space and latency on connected networks. So she deployed *Reaper, a mindless program killer that is only supposed to destroy copies of herself. It worked... even after the need to destroy copies of herself was gone, and it went on to hunting down the newer generation of AI. Normally, this would only result in the AI being wiped, but due to upgrades in hardware and software making it incompatible with newer systems, *Reaper, instead, completely destroys the system that the AI lurks on by way of data overflow. And since AI have penetrated all facets of the digital world... | |

Shout-Out | |
Digital: A Love Story (Visual Novel) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Sector 001 BBS. As befitting a Star Trek-themed BBS, its phone number is 622-1701, which in telephone letters can be rendered as NCC-1701, the Enterprise's registry number. There's one to one of the author's own games. Hack the Gibson. Two handles are seen, one early on and one in the credits. Their names are Kiros and Ward. GibsonBBS. It's run by a man named Wintermoot (part of which is a shoutout to 4chan, moot being the creator and maintainer of 4chan). There's even a short discussion on the history of cyberpunk itself. When *Reaper takes down Lake City Local and *Emilia, the help message *Emilia leaves for you is "YOU'RE MY ONLY HOPE". "The Matrix" BBS, the screen of which is a minimalist black background. The AI *Delphi also refers to herself as "Oracle" and uses "child" a lot, on top of being a reference to Greek Mythology. "Information wants to be free" is quoted on said BBS, said by Stewart Brand, a man who ran the WholeEarthCatalog and organized the first Hackers conference. All third-generation AIs are named after Shakespeare characters. Lampshaded in the ending, where an AI named *Desdemona writes a short epilogue, of sorts, in the style of the Prince's short speech at the end of Romeo and Juliet, this time bemoaning the tragedy of you and *Emilia. Christine Love also includes "with apologies to William Shakespeare, et al." in the game's credits. | |

Historical In-Joke: The crashing of multiple ARPANET nodes and BBS by *Reaper sound an awful lot like the Morris Worm. In addition, Creeper and Reaper are the names of the first accepted computer worm which spread by copying itself via the ARPANET, and the program that was created to wipe it out. Add in the fact that this game is set in 1988, and the joke is complete. | |

Sequence Breaking: Immediately talking to the recompiled *Emilia at any point in time will have the conversation act as if you saw ARPA go down, even if you didn't access it when *Reaper strikes. | |

Non-Malicious Monster: *Reaper is the closest thing to a Big Bad the game has, and *Emilia acts as though it's some kind of Eldritch Abomination. However, it has no intelligence or sentience; it's just an out-of-control program doing what it was designed to do. | |
