A while back, while I was working on a commercial piece, the editor hit me with a request: could I write something about Amairo Chocolata 3 (あまいろショコラータ 3)? As a former internet editor who got canned over a decade ago, writing this kind of article is no problem. The problem is: why? Why write about this game? Amairo Chocolata 3 is the kind of game where you can see the ending from the first glance, and its marketing was pretty mediocre too. I honestly don’t even get why Cabbage Soft (きゃべつそふと) would push this thing out to a third installment. And the other “why”: does anyone actually want to buy this game? So, to write a better commercial piece, I looked up the relevant data—and got a very unexpected result.
