Well, an interesting feature of visual novels is that the choices can be
used to forge relationships of different strengths with different
characters, which in turn influences the events taking places later on.
These choices typically come in the form of responses to questions asked
directly to the main character, whom I'd guess is Guy. For example upon
meeting a new character, Guy has to say something, either [lo pluka mi li'i
penmi] or colder things like simply [coi] or maybe meanest of all [je'e]
(which I'd construe as being rude; I mean who answers to "Hi nice to meet
you!" with "Yeah"?!)

Also, I'd figure that in a 100% lojbanic environment that regular cmevla
would fall out of use for names, especially those of lojban origin. It
seems to me like the real purpose of cmevla is to allow for inclusion of
natlang names without resorting to using clunky stuff like zoi and friends,
at the small cost of losing a bit of the original pronunciation or adding
an extra consonant. Otherwise, the only use I see for cmevla is to use CVC
rafsi as nicknames, but in my experience this isn't common right now
either. But then again, only few have gismu names.

The [kampacn] two-language joke is pretty neat, gotta say. I think, though,
that [ka pacna] or [kampacna] are just as nice as names. Maybe in lobgugde
there will be a sort of natlangisation when it comes to nicknames, where
[kampacna] gets reduced into [kampa].

Out of curiosity, why was it called [lobgugde]/[lojgugde] and not
[jbogu'e]/[lobgu'e]?
