Why didn't they find another editor from the start? I bet they all knew he would pull this kind of bs from the start. I don't think there is a need to drag on this project any longer. It must be hard for the people who are actually waiting to play the game. Everyday someone from Fuwanovel goes to the IRC and asks them when it'll be finished. Moogy answers most of the time by saying "tomorrow", according to them.

Good question, since he pulled the exact same shit with Grisaia. You'd think in the three years they've been working on this game they could have just replaced him with an actual competent editor, but TLWiki is just a weird cult of friends who do things "for the lulz" and don't really care about releasing patches.

TLWiki is also dying, after SubaHibi it doesn't look like they'll be releasing anything else. Some effort would be appreciated seeing as this will be the last translated kamige until a Dies/Baldr/Muramasa project comes up, which isn't likely to happen until the next 10 years or so.

He might be hardworking, he might not, but the one thing that can't be denied is that he's a master shitposter.

Last I heard through the rumor mill, he was actually in serious fucking hot water over the Frontwing thing. Something something, more than one person sent the chatlog direct to Frontwing, which gave it a lot more weight than you think it might, and they didn't take it well. At all. In the slightest.

I remember that a few threads ago. Not sure of what's going on internally but he was telling people on reddit not to buy ChiruChiru because the translation is bad, he even said pirate it. Frontwing deserves it though because the kickstarter said that SP would be the one to release the translation, not them.

I've been meaning to bring this up, but isn't calling the girl in Natsuiro Mikan a loli a little bit of a stretch? She just looks like a petite high school girl to me.

I used to not care about translation quality as long as the text is readable. But reading Grisaia really changed my view, good translation really does wonder. Now I'm very much look forward to the Liar-soft game that koeslt translated, I did not enjoy the other ones in What a beatiful series but I suspect it's due to the plain translation of Irex.

Absolutely disgusting. I know the reason why some people think like that - desperation and knowing you're not getting anything better, but I can't still accept it.

Over the last five years I learned Japanese to a very satisfying level and I can easily enjoy any VN I want without subjecting myself to terrible fantranslations or having to wait forever for those few official releases. And I don't mean a pseudo-reading with constant use of English dictionary like some Fuwanovel stars promote.

Just giving you an example that it's possible to learn Japanese. You probably waited years for all those "kamiges" and there are million other good VNs you never heard of anyway, and it's not like they're not going somewhere, so just give it some consistent effort, cut yourself off from all these cancerous 4chan/Reddit/Fuwa etc. threads, where everyone only shitposts about VNs they didn't read and about the terrible machine translations they use, and you'll be able to learn Japanese.

MG updated the translation status of their projects. I'm assuming that Pygmalion and W Happiness are inactive until their translators complete their current projects. Higurashi Chapter 2 jumped to 77.60% translated. Haruka is now 25.1% translated, so Aru is keeping his pace. And the all-ages SonoHanabira game is already at 90% translated.

This is excellent advice for a lot of people here, as I'd imagine the majority of the VN readers around this place don't really do anything else besides read VNs and wait around to read more VNs. However, just to give another perspective, there are people like me, who have plenty of other games to play and other such things to do, and as such are pretty content with playing what's available not learning much more than some simple Japanese. So to me, this is just a place to hang out for some "truly epic lulz." Every so often something like Subahibi might come out and I check it out and have a good time. Incidentally, I haven't even wasted my time on stuff like Ixrec's work. I've pretty much exclusively played VNs with well-regarded translations, such as Umineko. In the end it's really about how much time you've got available to you and how you wanna use it.

I'm more interested in why it seems to always be BLACK lilith titles. I have zero interest in those, but I would be paying for the other standard titles. (Even more so if they localized the single Lo-Lith game)

For Lilith themselves it must be a bad deal to only get to sell to the niche market that wants rape and abuse titles. You are pretty much trying to sell Rapeplay to a Rapeplay incident region.

I recently read an interesting article here in Sweden. Some guy obviously deserving jail for being part of a circle that created CP on demand happened to also have porcelain dolls with genitals. Supposedly they were slated for destruction, but did not become part of the actual case so it is not confirmed to be CP but the prosecuters believed they should be clear CP.

It makes you a little worried that they had that as a goal, but court luckily didn't let them attempt that. Remaining a gray zone is better than illegal.

One of these days I hope they just nail the law as "Messing with real children is illegal" and leave all the pretend things alone.

Sales do not depend only on your own titles. It depends on your competition. So far English market has barely any competition at all.

What do you mean it doesn't sell? You can buy it all you want. For you to get into trouble, the countries would have to actually be monitoring your credit card transactions or data transfers.

At which point you should be aware that any torrents you downloaded will get you fines, and any loli you've browsed past will get you jailed. Not to mention Big Brother would track your phone to know exactly where you are at all times.

Getting caught with loli these days usually require you to use the postal office, be a part of a real CP ring, or travel with a PC that has loli shortcuts.

With all of the all-ages games MG announced, and no news about Lilith despite all 3 of the games they previously licensed being out for months, I'm inclined to think that the super cheap nukige are what they're mostly going for at this point. They didn't even announce ImoPara 2 despite how well the original sold. Ammolite, Ame no Murakumo, Appetite, and Hentai Industries are what I'm expecting to see more of.

Da Capo 2 was translated by Kouryuu with help from Kou, so it's translation is OK. The original could use some work on the character routes besides Kotori's, but the common route and Kotori's were basically fixed by a patch Doddler made that ported the Kotori Love Ex P translation to it. I don't think the patch was official, but it's available on Doddler's blog. The patch also includes a font fix.

Well, we knew that, though. The problem is we don't know if JAST will even be fast enough to do the first one by fall since they don't even have any hacking done.

What would be nice is if JAST got their shit together and was even able to do simultaneous worldwide releases for the latter two games. But since it's JAST I won't get my hopes up for that.

While I don't like machine translations, I don't think it's a bad thing that they exist. Any competent translator who is put off working on a game by the existence of a machine translation was not going to finish their hypothetical project anyway, because if anything they should be more motivated to give the game they love the translation it deserves. At worst it leads to more interest in the game, and that's actually a good thing. Many games will simply go untranslated without machine translations, but machine translations could possibly lead to legitimate translations.

Would have been much funnier if he was shadowbanned for vote manipulation (to quote Umineko, I wouldn't put it past "that" Dovac) but since the names on his comments say [deleted], looks like he really did delete the Reddit account. Dude's lost his fucking mind.

Guess it remains to be seen whether he'll recreate accounts but I'd like to hope he's just done using those two sites to say stupid shit. If he does come back though, maybe he just wanted to get rid of the previous stupid comments from his history. But it's not like we've forgotten, so we shouldn't let him forget that we haven't forgotten. Screenshot evidence and such.

What bugs me about Sekai Project abusing the hell out of fanservice games on Steam is that they're also a company that deals exclusively in all ages games. They sell their games on sex appeal but don't sell the games with actual sex that those games are attempting to emulate. It's like a Jewish guy making money off reviewing pork.

Until recently Makoto edited/TLCed everything Jast released, and that's a big reason why things like Steins;Gate and Yumina took so long.

It won't be epic though. At least no more so than anything else Jast releases. Assuming Maria did a half-decent job to start, it'll probably be like Romanesque and he won't make very many changes. It's when the translation was crap that he goes through and pretty much retranslates things from scratch.

Also, will Denpa ever stop pretending they're not the same company as Sekai with a different name? I hate to describe something as "cringeworthy" but that's exactly what this is, it's like they're trying to put on a show and legitimately expect people to be stupid enough to believe it.

He's can be pretty rough with communication sometimes I think... He's not wrong, but I guess it's just the way it's said.

The adult version had some engine related issues, so we've updated to the latest version of the engine. The fan translation used a hacked executable, but using that would break the engine licensing rules, so we've gotten official support for a properly localized engine. Changing versions has resulted in a bit of a bug hunt, not to mention that there's been some outstanding bugs and minor issues in the original fanTL. We've been busy going back and forth between the project staff and frontwing to prepare test builds, finding bugs, and then fixing them. It's frustrating that it's taking longer than usual, but work is wrapping up shortly and the end result should be a better and more solid end product.

I'm thinking I'm probably just gonna start the partial on September 1st if herkz continues to be this incompetent. Finally playing it is more important to me than waiting a bit longer for "better" editing. Luckily I've had plenty of stuff to do in the meantime (which is why I'm giving it a bit more time instead of just doing it now, so I can get those things done before I start), but...ugh.

My involvement with Sekai Project is limited to only Grisaia as I've been involved with it since the original fanTL. It's not my intention to do their PR work, but Koestl and the others have put a lot of work into making it a solid release, so naturally I care about how it's handled. For that reason, I feel that issues should at least be properly communicated.

>>13963003
Sorry if that didn't come out right, that's not quite correct. Releasing the game with the hacked engine would have been an issue, which is why we've made the change. There haven't been any breaches in that regard.

I don't think Dovac is an asshole... he's just susceptible to speaking his mind, and he doesn't seem to filter his thoughts (well enough) whether he's speaking privately or publicly, which is probably what gets him in trouble.

I don't dislike the people working for Sekai, I've worked with a number of them in the past and they're all pretty cool, including Dovac. They all seem enthusiastic about their work and want to do a good job. It feels as though they have challenges related to communication though, and they have apparent issues related to the quality of their work, which I'm worried they may not be acknowledging with how they appear to tune out all the negative feedback. Hopefully they can get those issues straightened out.

(I hope I'm not saying too much here...)

Which is bad, since kickstarter backers expect constant communication and transparency. And at least with Clannad and Grisaia, the details of the releases didn't seem to have been worked out before the campaigns started, which led to surprises like potential DRM and the OST being released by Frontwing directly, etc.

>they have apparent issues related to the quality of their work, which I'm worried they may not be acknowledging with how they appear to tune out all the negative feedback

That's what gives me so little hope for their improvement.

Well, at least we can hope that Dvoac will stop siphoning promising talents towards his shit show. I mean, Doppler and Koestl are already MGed, but unfortunately he also managed to swipe the lenmisca guys before they could join any competent publisher and now we're going to get ruined versions of everything and even toddler is defending those people now so this is all wrong.

I've got over 20 translated eroge on my backlog that amounts to over 1000 hours right now. I did read Kagami's route in Subahibi but I stopped there until the full thing is out. Right now I can't bring myself to finish up Symphonic Rain so I'm just watching old samurai movies and reading some Lovecraft alongside philosophy. I have no idea why herkz keeps delaying this release.

Three words: self-lubricating anus.

... yeah, that got rewritten to something bit more believable. Seriously, more nukige need to approach anal realistically: with a very long, uh, "introduction" and a copious supply of lube. As someone who's worked EMS before, I've had to treat the results of improper lubrication before firsthand. It ain't pretty. Lots of blood. Lots of crying and dropped spaghetti.

As for SFX "translation", it's really subjective. I can read enough hiragana/katakana to sound out SFX myself, so that helps some, but then you have to deal with the issue of people's tastes. Some people insist on "Nn...", others on "translating" that to "Mm...". Then you open up the game alongside the scenes and you realize that the voice actor is definitely going "Aahn, aahn, aahn!" on that line and you just kinda sigh and glare at the world in particular. And THEN you realize that most people tune into the fact that it's a sex scene and have tuned themselves out to anything in the dialogue box, and it just makes you depressed.

Where things actually get tricky is when speech gets modified, especially when the character slurs part of their sentence but not the rest—say, when bobbing on and off a dick. There's a finicky balance between matching the VAing, changing enough letters to inform the reader that "this speech is modified", refraining from changing so many letters that they can't figure out what the word is supposed to be, and keeping in line with reality as to what what can and can't be said with an obstruction in the mouth.

It's a science, not an art, and while I have made a table of phonemes by now, I keep coming back to it to make adjustments and add exceptions/modifications in the case of common words, especially short monosyllabic ones.

Lube for anal sex is extremely rare in jp eroge, and even "foreplay" happens only in like half of cases. Most common case is just jamming it in and then half minute later she totally enjoys it.
Its just standard trope of eroge, like every virgin absolutely must bleed on first time. I don't think I ever encountered virgin with realistic description of hymen.

I love how much thought you put into this. I wish any of the games you've worked on actually interested me so that I'd be able to appreciate your work, but c'est la vie. Hopefully there is such a game someday.

I also find it very interesting that there is actually a person out there whose resume could include both EMS work and porn editing. Some people have lived such varied and fascinating lives.

Why would anyone who's bothered setting up virtualized WinXP for reading VNs install anything other than Japanese VL/OEM WinXP?
I almost orgazmed the first time I used Japanese WinXP and suddenly all Japanese shit started working RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX. I'm pretty sure TPB has the ISO, and probably rutracker too.

I doubt that Russian ISO is so special that switching locale is enough to pass all region checks and evade unintentional system quirks common to Western versions. Anyway, here's (fast) working torrent:
