>Stuff like this has been either added or updated since the last thread

So much green

So, how shit exactly is A Profile?

Reported for Muvluv pic instead of Sharnoth.

The GAEL movies were done awhile ago.

Best thread of the week is here again!

>>7854913
At least wait an hour or two before starting stuff like this.

>Baldr Sky - Translation ongoing

I hope this never changes.

>>7854917
> The GAEL movies were done awhile ago.

For that, just went off of the work remaining section in Aroduc's status thread, which lists "Movie subtitling"

Princess Maker in green? Wow.
Also, now that F/ha is translated from Chinese, it goes pretty fast!

>>7854929
No, I'm asking seriously, not just saying that cause it got a translation project.
I know next to nothing about it, but going by VNDB it looks horribly bad.

>>7854914
I agree with this.
MLA had already been leaked, Sharnoth is newer in that regard.

What happened to secret game?

Looks like we should have both Stein's Gate and YUNO by the end of the year.

>>7854987
My apologies, missed that in the post pasting, it's still there, though the board clue changed, now "Project Shock and Paw"

>Little Busters - 91.22% translated, 89.82% edited, patch out with Haruka' route and Kud's route
Yes, yes...

I've been procrastinating playing Remember11

Should I wait for Never7 to finish then play them 7 --> 11, or does it really, really not matter?

>>7854995
whoops, thought you were refering to Aroduc's secret project, which I missed. Secret Game (and a few other dead projects) were removed to clean up the list a bit.

>>7855000
Unless they're somehow more connected than Ever17 and Remember11 are, I doubt it matters.

>>7855000
Just play remember 11, should only take you about a week worth of time, unless you want to get all bad ends, which i didn't do. Its a good read its just left open a bit. Never 7 should be better though i hear.

>>7855031
>Never 7 should be better though i hear.
It isn't. It's the weakest entry.

>>7855039
Well i heard it just has more slice of life, thats all. At least it wont have a ending like R11, not that the whole game was bad, just the way it ended was retarded.

Steins;Gate is mind numbly fast.

>>7855065
Not fast enough, I want to play this immediately...can't they send the translation from the future to now?

Whatever happened to the Flyable Heart, and Air translations?

>>7855065
>>7855072
If you see the guys blog it seems he translates every day, thats why its going so fast.

>Steins;Gate - 139/175 (79.43%) script files translated

http://e17time.blogspot.com/
>141/175 scripts + α
>α > 32

>>7855087
Pretty sure that's just saying the alpha build (with unedited script) is available at the link directly following alpha

>Tenshin Ranman - project starting up

who is doing this? and is there any news about aroduc's secret project it seems galaxy angel about to finish.

I'm sure we will see at least a profile,Yuno,little busters before 2012,and maybe ayakashibito,forest.

>>7855096
α refers to the progress the other guys have done, which I'm pretty sure is at least the Prologue and Chapters 1-2. The mediafire link at the top is just .txts for Chapters 4-11.

>>7855087
Ah yeah, they are also translating the alpha drama CD and they are going to release a teaser patch with chapter 1 next week.

>>7855099
The only thing i know is that it has this character.

>>7855099
The only thing i know is that it has this character in it.

>Thief & Sword - Shalt route released
Where can I get this now that hongfire is dead?

>>7855246
Do you have a bit gamer account? Ill upload it there later.

>>7855177
We had C-E and K-E parts in FHA for a while now. The person doing C-E at the moment doesn't seem to be doing much worse than an average J-E translator.

Worst that happens, those parts will be thrown out/rewritten during the TLC pass.

>>7855264
Could you just upload it to mediafire? That would probably be easier for everyone

>>7854946
F/ha is being translated from Chinese? Source on that?

I hope it isn't, because J->C->E translations are always terrible, no exceptions. G-Senjou had to practically be retranslated because of the tons of mistakes J->C->E translation caused.

>>7855290
http://www.fakku.net/viewtopic.php?p=2373526#2373526

>>7855310
The related thread on Beast's Lair?
Anyway, Kagetsu Tohya was nicely translated.

>>7855310
Sometimes terrible, often okay, especially if the Chinese was done alright and if the guy/girl doing C-E it has a clue in Japanese.

For instance:

http://gndynames.wordpress.com/2008/09/27/fatehollow-ataraxia-scene-translation/

Many of those made it in with relatively few edits. I don't encourage it, but if somebody wants to do C-E, I'm not going to stop them (unlike machine TL).

>>7855345
That's kind of funny because most C-E translations are even worse than machine. They're so focused on speed that most Chinese translations are utter disasters.

>>7855357
Not being azn, I have no clue. All I can tell is that the quality does seem to vary a lot.

I'm sure Fate/Zero guys know all about that, though.

Does anyone have a DDL for GA eternal lovers? nyaa has a torrent with the full trilogy in a single .rar but I only need the last game.

Opinions on Sharnoth?

>>7855406
I stopped reading it once I found out they had cell phones.

>>7855450
Engine phones, anon, engine phones. They transmit data through STEAM.

>>7855370
All the tense errors and general shenanigans made me want to stab myself in the face when I read Fate/zero. The original text could not have been that messed up....

>>7855181
Hell yea mother fucker

>>7855450
Stop reading THIS *grabs dick*

>>7855406
Pretty decent read. Ending had no problems but was slightly unsatisfying.

The minigames were a bitch

>>7855768
Impossible to translate. Sca-jis articulate flow and command of the written word is completely above what a non-professional translator could comprehend.

>>7855768
Even most Japanese can't read Subahibi, don't expect it to be translated.

>Daiteikoku - 19,511/130,000 lines translated (15%)
>3 weeks with no progress
What is this trickery? Well, hongfire IS (temporarily)dead.

>>7855978
How is it even possible to be unable to read a novel in your native language. A language that you've spoken for 20+ years. How the fuck do you even survive in daily life?

>>7855989
Stop listening to moogy's propaganda.

Last I heard Moogy was translating SubaHibi.
What happened?

>>7855989
It is very possible in America at least.

>>7855996
Moogy being moogy happened.

>>7855207
It's great but you won't like it. Neither will most of /jp/ seeing how often they bitch about Sharin's drama, which is the closest parallel I can think of to A Profile.

>>7856069
So it's basically Sharin no Kuni without the sharin no kuni part?

>>7856094
Depends on what you mean by "the sharin no kuni part." It still has some twists but they aren't as big of a part of the game. It obviously doesn't have the same setting or the obligation system.

A Profile is better than G Senjou no Maou at least.

Sharin > Profile > GSen for me

>>7856202
I fully agree with that.

>>7856202
Is A Profile written by Looseboy or is the comparison just based off of the company? I'll probably end up reading if it's the former just because I've read his other work.

>>7856259
the former

>That feel when Steins;Gate only has a week or two of translation left before finishing

They've been working on this for, what, three months?

>>7856202

I hated GSen but loved Sharin, so will I liked A Profile?

>>7856433
A Profile is definitely closer to Sharin than it is to G-Senjou.

>>7856433
>>That feel when Steins;Gate only has a week or two of translation left before finishing
>They've been working on this for, what, three months?

I like how you jumped from from ~140 scripts in 3 months means that they'll finish ~35 scripts in a week.
Math. Useful for more than just making change.

>Rance Quest - Translation ongoing
Isn't it a bit too fast for this to happen? It just got released 2 weeks or something ago.

Or are they trying to head off Rance 9 or something?

>>7856456
The group doing the Rance games decided to translate Rance Quest before continuing with the rest of the series.

>>7856456
It happened precisely because of release hype.
Though I hear RQ is basically a compilation of characters from the other Rances so I don't know how much sense it would do that finish Quest before the others.

>>7856433
Then there is Editing, Image Editing and QC. Don't get excited yet.

>>7856454
Not him, and you're not wrong in this case, but still...
d(dx/dt)/dt

Who even cares? Alicesoft hasn't made a good game in almost half a decade. Hell, Rance Quest is barely managing to be a couple of points ahead of the disaster that was Daiteikoku on EGS.

>>7856473
you shouldn't take EGS averages at face value, there's lots of one-vote accounts and people rating it 100 or 0 out of fanboyism/hate

>>7856480
No shit. It's a site measuring popular opinion. Anything else to add? Maybe that it's based on subjective opinions of individuals?

>>7856488
It's like you didn't even read what he said.

>>7856480
there really isn't that much of them, and if game is actually good it would be much higher, also most Rance Quest votes are in the average range. so that should tell something

>>7856456
Well, they did say that Rance 9 is coming sooner than later. The way RQ ended, I'm really getting excited for 9 more than usual. I'm kind of pissed at some of the endings that TADA gave some of the characters. Felt bad for Cessna, too.

The only thing I know about A Profile is that its FHC's favorite NTR game.

>>7856521
>Today I get a day off and I played this game the whole day.
>Not ask to me how many NTR scenes have this game, since I am currently playing it now, I not completed the game yet. I think, I am in the mid of the game yet, translating carefully all texts. To say you the true, I not see yet any sex scene. This game is more plotline than sex.
>However, I did something that never happened before: I masturbated just reading texts, not seeing sex scenes. The NTR feeling in this game is STRONG, that I played the whole game almost all the time with my penis erect, just reading texts,without see any sex scene, since you play the game the whole time by the point of view of the protagonist, never from the point of view of the girl, this make the NTR feeling more stronger. NTR games need to be like this, because, If you see so many parts of the game by the point of view of the girl, this mess up the NTR feeling.

>I masturbated and my penis almost "explode" of so much excitation specially when the protagonist force the girl to admit that she is doing the prostitution and he request to her to explain WHY she is doing it. Just reading her explanation already make the whole game worthwhile.
>I am, anxious to return to the game to keep playing it more ( unfortunately, soon I will be forced to sleep, since tomorrow I have work to do ). I just hope that this game have a happy ending, I hate sad and tragic endings...

>>7856526
isn't he the guy who made AGTH? So he fapped to ATLAS translations, that's golden

>>7856532
Oh lawd no, a Brazilian? Program?

>Ore no Imouto - 9.4% (28/299) scripts translated
>Yosuga no Sora - 33% translated

That's the definition of sadness.

>>7856526
This is why you shouldn't play eroge with machine translators.

How long has Yosuga no Sora been at 33% now?

>>7856526

Wow, this is going to be a fun game. Can't wait to recommend it to my friends.

>>7856576
NTR is the best tag on pixiv.

> Princess Maker 5 - still 35%

facepalm.jpg

>>7856521
A profile is hardly NTR though, so I don't get it. Light spoilers one of the characters sleeps with other men actively for reasons you'll see. But the actual act of them sleeping together is never depicted, and only occasionally described. The other two are pure virgins.. NTR stuff is so light in the game.

>>7856605
while I agree that doesn't really make it NTR, I don't think it's "lighter" just because it's never actually depicted, it's still there

>Fate/hollow ataraxia - 62.2%
>Steins;Gate - 79.43%

Delicious.

Now if only Witch Hunt could hurry up with Umineko.

>>7856617
It's not NTR because it doesn't happen while the protagonist and heroine are a couple, unless I'm misremembering (been a long time since I played it). The drama around the situation isn't presented in an NTR context either. FHC just projected his fetish onto his ATLAS gibberish and that's why he thought it had such a STRONG NTR feeling.

People who are over sensitive to NTR or hate nonvirgin heroines will be upset by it though.

>>7856629
My ass is prepared.

>>7856629
I know, that's why I said I agree it's not NTR. But your post sounded like "they don't show it so it's ok" so I was merely commenting on that.

>11eyes
>Aiyoku no Eustia
>The Second Reproduction
Waiting warmly

>A Profile another Looseboy masterpiece
why

>>7856634
I'm not the same guy. I guess I was just trying to get in my own rant about how A Profile isn't NTR and how FHC clearly had poor understanding of the game.

>>7856647
It doesn't seem like from that post that you could understand it to be NTR, it just seems like she sleeps with men when not in a real relationship with the MC unless I am misinterpreting something.

Also this week is up there with best week ever, two releases right after Katahane

>>7856629
>hate nonvirgin heroines
so many like this tho

How can anyone sit through Muv-Luv Extra? It's so incredibly shitty, I got half way then CTRL'd through it and read the summary. I hope Unlimited is better than this. Bracing for Alternative, it had better not be fucking shitty.

>>7856705
>It's so incredibly shitty
That's Unlimited.
Oh wait, you're a REAL DEAL fan right? Skip to 80% of MLA then.

>>7856707
Well, I don't NEED REAL DEAL, but having something that isn't school harem comedy shit would be really fucking nice. Seems mecha shit and actual story is in Muv-Luv Unlimited, so I'm okay from now, probably.

>>7856705
Being a cynical asshole and trying not to enjoy a story for what it is will not make you enjoy MLA. MLA needs for you to understand Takeru and Sumika fo fully grasp this story. Yes Extra isn't up to par and is kind of generic but it needs to be read. Unlimited is better but from what I know of you it will just look like Extra with a military coat of paint.

People who read the Muv-Luv series like this are the ones bound to shit on it later when it doesn't live up to their expectations.

>>7856710
>People who read the Muv-Luv series like this are the ones bound to shit on it later when it doesn't live up to their expectations.
Seconded.

Muv Luv would've been better without hurr srs mecha and death shit.
Extra was the only enjoyable part for me.

>>7856705
Just a friendly warning: if you got into the series thinking it's about mech battles and alien explosions, know that there's very little of it and you're bound to be disappointed and just be frustrated by how long it takes to reach those little parts.
If you want to enjoy the game you should change your mental approach to it (no doubt caused by all the hype surrounding Alternative)

>>7856710
I don't really think I was being a cynical asshole, but honestly, I kind of enjoyed it, but it got to a point where watching retarded scenes of eating food got mind numbing.

I really don't think I'll hate Unlimited, I just needed something else with a bit more meat than comedy haremshit.

I feel like I got the general gist of the relationship between characters, seeing as I did read about 2/3 of it, and then the summary filled in the blanks. I also read the endings of Sumika and Meiya, so I didn't just CTRL through the entire thing.
>>7856720
Well, that's not why I got into it. It's more the fact that Alternative is fucking LOVED, but Muv-Luv is so-so. You know?

>>7856705
>How can anyone sit through Muv-Luv Extra?
Because it's fucking great.

>>7856710
>Unlimited is better but from what I know of you it will just look like Extra with a military coat of paint.
But that's exactly what UL is.

>>7856726
UL isn't something else, Takeru grows a lot but it is still harem hijinks in uniforms. Shit doesn't even get real until 1/3 through MLA.

>>7856738
Well, Extra was like 30k lines and Unlimited 20k IIRC, so it should be more readable.

>>7856705
What is the problem?
Too REAL DEAL for you?
Why not just drop the game instead of playing something that you wont like?
By just reading Alternative, it is like reading the last chapter of the book. You are only killing the enjoyment.

>>7856759
I understand. That's why I tried to enjoy Extra. It's not like I skipped it all, I just skipped like 1/3 of it, and read the endings. I just didn't think it was a very good read, and the only character I liked was Sumika.

Not everyone can like it, and judging by the low ratings on vndb, most people thought it was mediocre.

>>7856765
>and judging by the low ratings on vndb, most people thought it was mediocre.
>522 votes total, average 7.34 (good)
>good
>mediocre

>>7856765
Extra was fun, but it's definitely no more than a 7.

A 7 is still a great score for a moege though. If you give a moege more than that, then I dunno. Have you done Tama's route? It's pretty fun. Not to mention it has some great replay value after Alternative.

Also, Unlimited has great world-building and some really, really good moments. No Sumika, sadly.

Both obviously don't hold a candle to MLA, but not many VNs do. They are average and above average respectively, hardly a pain to read unless you want ALIENS AND KILLING AND DEEP right off the bat. People seem to love to take a shit on them to avoid the backlash directly hitting MLA.

>>7856776
everyone uses 7-10 rating scales, so yeah 7 is pretty bad

マブラヴ has an 80 in erogamescape I think. It's been a while since I checked.

>>7856765
Just cause it is not a nakige likekeyshit doesnt mean it is bad. And you dont judge it by itself since Muv Luv contains both extra+unlimited. It is like you are just judging clannad without playing after story.

Unlimited was great, at least an 8 imo.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97qmMJQ5k78

And judging something from vndb is stupid. You have shit like umineko and katawa shoujo with score of ~8.

>>7856782
Sensible people do not. I consider 7-10 to be worth reading, and 6 and below to be "only if it has a fetish you really like".

>>7856782
I use the 4-10 rating personally, people who vote on VNs they have finished usually like them, if they didn't they wouldn't have finished. I have dropped a few I didn't like, not many people keep reading what they hate and unlike most communities VNDB doesn't have people who just vote 10 or 0 because they think the overall score isn't where they think it should be (IMDB is like this)

>>7856806
>VNDB doesn't have people who just vote 10 or 0 because they think the overall score isn't where they think it should be
They aren't that many but there's defintely people like that even on vndb, rating every game of a certain brand 10 and a few other public favorites 1

>>7856782
You rate even crap works at 7? Because that's how your scale is measured. That's not how you rate things.

http://vndb.org/v92
>300 score 10

http://vndb.org/v4
>538 score 10

Clannad is almost twice as good as MLA hell yes.

>>7856810
>452 votes total

>1124 votes total

>>7856810
Clannad has an anime.
Once TE get on TV, I am expecting MLA to have 3x the number of clannad votes.
Better find yourself another VN to hype once it becomes mainstream.

>>7856810
What a shock, the one that's been translated for many times longer had more people rate it! I never would have guessed!

I rate real deal srs nakige - 7-10
Shitty porn nukiges - 1-4

>>7856812
Numbers don't lie.

>>7856780
>Also, Unlimited has great world-building and some really, really good moments.
This is the kind of thing I want. All I ask. I feel like I might enjoy Unlimited, I tried to enjoy Extra, but that shit wasn't working.

It isn't a VNTL status thread without obvious trolling and stupidity, all we need is more translator drama and we have ourselves a thread.

>>7856826
It's Muv-Luv thread now. Problem?

Better than VN translation scene gossip that always end every VNTS thread anyway.

They should get R4 to get its sound working first.

>>7856836
That's not cool at all

>>7856825
Well the only parts of Extra you really NEED to go through are Sumika and Meiya's routes. The rest is optional.

Unlimited introduces an excellent setting, but basically reads like the first 1/3 of a story, where it just kind of builds up and then ends in the most disappointing unsatisfying manner possible, before anything has actually happened at all. Of course, since you're only reading it as an introduction to Alternative, that's not really a big deal, so there's no reason you shouldn't enjoy it at least a little bit.

>>7856841
Romeo could have been writing some decent if it wasn't for Rewrite.

Freaking weeaboo-wannabe normies they're always making me mad.

I'm so glad you include Hunk's Workshop in this. I want it so bad.

>>7856859

>>7856866
What? He isn't a "weeaboo wannabe", he just wants to read MLA. He probably heard it was good somewhere but knew nothing about it. Obviously if he came here talking like that he'd be run out of town, but since the post was made on a completely different forum we give no shits about, I suggest you fuck right off.

>>7856874

>>7856877
You're fucking retarded.

>>7856813
Indeed, it will. And at that point, it will be voted on by other people than just the people who played through the entire series and took it all seriously, instead of people skipping the boring parts and completely missing the point on the supposed 'kickass' parts. You know how Umineko no Naku Koro ni (1-4) used to be the #1 highest rated game on VNDB? Idiots came in, completely missing the point, and rating it lower because 'the mystery and violence is good, but the meta-bullshit really screws up the pacing'. The same will happen with Muv-Luv Alternative; people will vote it lower because there's 'so much bullshit between the actually good scenes'.

>>7856889
Yeah, I can easily see Muv Luv Extra getting a lot of low scores once TE comes out because people won't appreciate how fun, simple and heartwarming it is.

Screw all these summaries floating around the net, they make people think that Extra and Unlimited have absolutely no merits.

>>7856889
And how is that a bad thing?

So when will Rewrite be translated?

>>7856889
>You know how Umineko no Naku Koro ni (1-4) used to be the #1 highest rated game on VNDB?
Most of Umineko's 10 votes were by people who had rated only two or three other VNs.

>>7856903
When Angels come in December.

>>7856889
Umineko was always shit.
I am not seeing your point.
The whole Muv Luv franchise is good because you can see how the writers know how the story will be like and it was consistent.

Umiunko on the other hand felt like some fragmented shit that R07 wrote on the fly and how he changed it here and there because of fans reception.

>>7856889
http://erogamescape.dyndns.org/~ap2/ero/toukei_kaiseki/brand.php?brand=1228

So how do you explain this?

>>7856889
Most recent votes are still in the 7-10 range, and over 90% of the total votes are, with over 80% being in the 8-10 range. But I guess giving Umineko anything but a perfect 10 means the person "completely missed the point" of Ryuukishi's masterpiece since they don't think it's the best VN ever.

>>7856889
10/10
I like your post.
Though I don't hate Muv Luv near as much as umineko.

Still waiting for Baldr Sky.
Not knowing translation status is suffering.

>>7856937
I really don't think you should keep your hopes high.

>>7856937
I thought /jp/ always wanted translator doing their job quietly and do surprise release since continual updates always cause unnecessary drama.

>>7856958
>No one actually says things like that seriously. You're weird.

Is the Rewrite translation still going on?

>>7856917
Perhaps it was. But that did not change the fact that the fully released Umineko 1-4 dropped in rating as it got more popular. I'm not saying it's THE BEST THING EVER, but as things get more popular, more people who aren't into it will rate the game and the rating will drop. Currently, MLA is practically only voted on by people who
1) Liked the premise enough to play it within half a year after the translation's release
2) Actually read the important parts of Extra and Unlimited, and were interested enough in Alternative to trudge through them
3) Aren't reading it just because it's popular; and
4) People who don't go in expecting something completely different than it really is (the informed minority has votes so far, the uninformed majority has yet to vote), completely missing the point

As more people (read: newbies) discover MLA, more of them will play it despite lack of interest in the premise just because it's popular, completely skip Extra/Unlimited, and completely miss the point of the story. This leads to lower votes.

I hate Extra, and I understand that MLA without having read any of Extra and Unlimited is a blasphemy, so I'll let that serve as a barrier so I won't misjudge Muv-Luv for the wrong reasons. Don't expect newbies to do the same, though; they'll skip straight through Extra and Unlimited for the KICKASS MECHA ACTION and then rate it a 7 because the action is awesome but there's too much bullshit in-between.

>>7856462

Are they retarded or something?

Rance 3 was almost 100% and now this...

>>7856968
Generally the more data you get the more normalized the distribution becomes. So something that starts off highly rated is likely to drop with more votes.

I don't even see the problem with people who don't have an interest in something playing and voting on it. Or what, are only people who like a VN allowed to vote on it? Because that would be real useful. Not that ratings are useful to begin with.

>>7856948
You must be new here. Yandere caused that unnecessary route poll drama.

Okay now we're back to VN TL scene gossip to seal VNTS thread once again.

>>7856968
I disagree that it will see a significant drop from where it is now. While there is some truth to what you say that could bring some lower ratings, it has been getting multiple new votes a day since the leak, and after the raw mean stabilized a bit above 9.4, it has pretty much held steady there just above 9.4 for months.

>Galaxy Angel: Eternal Lovers- 0.95 patch out, work remaining - editing and interface,movies

What the fuck?

Is it being done by Aroduc?

>>7856473
I'm one of those who think that Daiteikoku is pure shit but Rance Quest is pretty good.

Anyways the complains in EGS aren't about the gameplay mechanics, pretty much everyone agree that it's pretty good, but the fact that this game feel more like a FD than something epic like Rance 6 or 3.

>>7856986
Umineko 'held steady' in first place for well over a year. The fact that MLA's patch wasn't officially available (read: easy for newbies to get) didn't help.

>>7856977
I'm not saying it's wrong, but what I am saying is that its current rating isn't representative as only a biased group has voted on it so far. We'll need to wait for the general public to vote before making comparisons like >>7856810 >>7856813.

>>7856605
But the actual act of them sleeping together is never depicted
Oh, that sounds slightly more promising now. Thanks.

>>7856979
Speaking of VN TL scene gossip, what about that stuff about Sheeta being Ixrec's girlfriend that got disrupted/ignored because of the other huge Amaterasu news?

>>7857013
>Sheeta being Ixrec's girlfriend
Super old news. It's not news at all if you follow their Twitter. Nothing got disrupted/ignored. You're just not very up-to-date.

>>7857008
>Umineko 'held steady' in first place for well over a year. The fact that MLA's patch wasn't officially available (read: easy for newbies to get) didn't help.

It was when VNDB was still pretty new and full of people who barely played any VNs.
People taste change when they can get a broader range of things to compare, same thing happened with Umineko.
It won't happen with MLA.

Look at erogamescape for example, the only episode of Umineko that has a relatively good rating is episode 3.
MLA though is the highest rated VN there.

>>7857022
>It was when VNDB was still pretty new and full of people who barely played any VNs.
Bullshit. When I started playing VNs in 2008, VNDB already existed. It wasn't new at all.

>>7857021
Wait, it's confirmed? I know Sheeta went to the US (temporarily?), but I thought this was just bullshit rumors. There's too many unrelated messages on twitter to get a clear picture.

>>7857005
While I kinda knew that Quest wasn't going to be as epic as 6 in terms of story because it was going to be a mercenary RPG, the final quests about the Kalars were pretty good. It kind of made sense how it wasn't going to be like 3, 6 or Sengoku. There's only one Kalar enclave after all unlike the several cities and fortresses of 3, 6 and 7. Rance 9 will probably have that since it's going to be a civil war setting.

>>7857578

>>7857578
I hope they'll not choose Rewrite. It's not worth it simply due to the script size and shitty overall storytelling.

They should do Omega instead.

>>7857591
>It's not worth it simply due to the script size and shitty overall storytelling.

This is an opinion. I, for one, have decided that I will enjoy it, and since I like both Key games and Cross+Channel, I probably will anyway.

>They should do Omega instead.

Ixrec will probably do it after Forest or something, it seems like his kind of project.

>>7857649
>Key games
If you enjoy gimmick moeshit route like Kud and Kyou/Ryou you'll enjoy majority of Rewrite.

>>7856738
What? I've only read for like 30 minutes of the start of Unlimited, and so far, it's really good. It's actually an interesting read now, Extra was generic as all fuck.

>>7857672
> Extra was generic as all fuck
It was kinda the point

>>7856559
Hahaha, did you really think Ore no Imouto was going to be translated?

>>7856594
Three-four weeks I think. And it never was properly updated. Some translator just dumped scripts, found new translator and it's stalled since then.


Though new translator made excuses last week.

>>7857704
>There’s a great visual novel in there somewhere, but I can’t honestly recommend this game
So it is basically like Clannaids, tons of shit routes with maybe 1 or 2 good heroines.

>>7857751
That, and the serious DEEP route requires you to play through the rest of the shit first and is not even that great (like when comparing MLA to Extra which justifies the time spent).

>>7857704
I wasn't asking for confirmation, I was just appalled at your use of the term.

>>7857751
Except only Kyou's route is bad in Clannad;
And there are 10 routes + the After Story so there are far more than enough material to excuse this.

>>7857704

Damn it, read some spoiler about Kagari not being human. Then again, I suspected something like that was the case.

Will that affect my enjoyment of the game?

>>7857751
>There’s a great visual novel in there somewhere, but I can’t honestly recommend this game

It's funny because I'd say this about MLA.

>>7857765
>rest of the shit

I hear the Common Route is mostly Key comedy -- and I liked Key comedy, so, yeah, taste.

>>7857660
There is nothing "moeshit" about Rewrite.
Heck the heroines except for Akane actually don't matter at all in the plot.
Heck in Chihaya's route for example, you could remove Chihaya and nothing would change, that route is really just about Sakuya and Kotarou's relationship that is kind of similar to Archer and Shirou.

>>7857793
There are quite a few just not worth reading though. Misae's leads basically nowhere. There's that blonde faggot that comes out of nowhere.
In general most of them are mediocre at best, with two or three main routes being actually decent.

>>7857802
No, you know what she is since the first time you see her.

>>7857819
Misae's route introduced the lights which are just a bit important.

>>7857819
Misae's route was good, you are just being a faggot.
Nagisa, Tomoyo, Fuuko and Kotomi were all great routes.
Sunohara had a great sub-route, Kappei and Misae were surprisingly touching considering how short they were.

Only Kyou and Yukine were weak but they take like 15% of the game.

>>7857825

Oh good.

>>7857818
>Sakuya and Kotarou's relationship that is kind of similar to Archer and Shirou.

Fuck man, spoiler that shit.

>>7857842
It's not a spoiler.
Just their relationship, not them themselves.

>>7857826
It could be done with pretty much anyone.

Hell, they did it with library girl too (can't remember her name). Or Fuuko.

The fact that end is "and it ends lol" you get her light in Tomoyo's was a bit jarring. Still, though, not a TERRIBLE read, even if inane. Just felt like they could have streamlined the whole VN and made it shorter and to the point with less routes.

>>7857751
>So it is basically like Clannads, tons of great routes with maybe 1 or 2 average characters.

>>7856897
But TE is pretty much UL minus the training with more combat and actual BETA.
And a yet to occur bad end where pretty much everyone except Inia is going to die during Operation Ouka at Hive 25, because lolKouki. Well, maybe not all of them, it is only a Phase 2 hive. Not like those poor bastards in Eurofront who get to go attack the Lyons hive, at Phase 5.

>Tenshin Ranman - project starting up
Well, there goes one game from my backlog for now.

>>7857847
The fact that all the choices in Clannad can lead you basically anywhere is one of the best thing about it.
You can pursue basically everyone or if you don't want to you end up having fun with the baseball route.
Clannad is one of the most interactive VN with all the routes and choices, that's one of the reason it's so well liked.

>>7857838
>Misae's route was good, you are just being a faggot.
Stop that shit. It wasn't terrible to read, but it wasn't exactly good. It was Makoto all over again, except not nearly as good and leading nowhere of importance at the end.

You also forgot the teacher's route.

I agree though with those 4 main routes you listed being very much worth reading, and Sunohara was cool too for the FRIENDSHIP, even if you don't get a loli end.

>>7857852
Can't you use spoiler tags? I for one would have preferred not to know those things.

>>7857863
It also has a ton of secrets in it that I found on a 2nd/3rd read through. So far no VN has made me laugh so hard and on the flip side cry that hard. It deserves to be praised the way it is. Good job, Key.

>>7857869
None of that has actually happened yet though, and might not.
After all, in the same PV it was heavily implied that Yuuya would be the pilot of the Su-47, but well, that's false based on hard evidence right now.

>>7857868
The teacher route actually made me cry, it was fucking sad. Also in rewrite did r07 really make his character into a yandere? Im more interested in how he did his route/character, Is there any trolling and caps like THISSSSS everywhere?

>Welcome to Pia Carrot 2 - 1st draft translation complete

Come on Matt, I know you can do it

I heard Clannad was never finished, so I was discouraged when I got a version of the seen.txt that crashed on a scene with Fuuko.

Where can I get the latest or final version of the Clannad translation?

http://www.mediafire.com/?1vg3gbb4viydpig <-- probably not the latest, but fully works AFAIK.

Of course MLA's rating is going to go down. Most of the people who got their hands on it up to now had trudged through Extra for what it was and read unlimited on its own merits. Extra gets a lot of shit for being bad, and I'll admit that if it were a standalone product, it would be utterly forgettable except for perhaps how utterly cliche and generic it was. It had a KGNE jokes and Initial D jokes, and other humor that no normal would ever be expected to understand. By itself, it's a 6.

Unlimited, as a standalone, isn't that amazing either. It's got some solid worldbuilding, which I've got a serious writer hardon for anyways, but if you read it as a follow up to Extra, it's great because all the conspicuously bad parts are replaced with badass and you finally get to see the generic smartass VN protagonist get the shit knocked out of him and start o show something that resembles something more than a cliche for a personality. By itself, it'd be a 7, with Extra, it's an 8.

For many of us, that was it. End of line. No guarantees that this fabled "alternative" would ever exist. So when it does come out, even in a leaked state, going into it blind was probably the best possible scenario. Extra is still terrible, but you can see that it was terrible with a purpose.

Going into muvluv with the attitude of "I just have to slug through this to get to the good parts" is like going into a book, movie, TV series or even video game and just skimming over the first 2/3 because people tell you the ending is awesome. The ending is awesome BECAUSE the first 2/3 are spent setting it up. To skip that is completely shortchanging yourself and the work.

Though, I'll admit that muvluv does have some pacing issues. Goddamn infodumps.

>>7858293
Those infodumps, though boring, were there for a reason, though. Now and then you still see people who ask retarded questions that were explained in-game, and you know they probably skipped right over them.

>>7858293
>and other humor that no normal would ever be expected to understand.
To be fair, there are jokes in Extra and Unlimited that I'm sure most of /jp/ just glanced right over, in part due to the translation, in part due to not getting them.

>Tenshin Ranman - project starting up

Fucking link, nao.

>>7858341
Like what. *grabs weeaboo dick, is 141 pounds*

Jesus Christ, why is the same music that is played ironically in Extra played in 'REAL DEAL' moment in Unlimited. It's fucking retarded as shit.

>>7858810
It's like that in parts of Alternative too. I was really disappointed by the lack of diversity in the music throughout all of the games, I thought it would be better considering the big names that worked on it.

>>7858879
I had that same issue, and with the sound effects too. Like they had this corny dramatic sound effect that they used in Extra, and then it was used in Alternative for serious scenes. Made the game hard to take seriously.

>>7858879
>>7858890
Oh, fuck me, no. It's starting to slowly be taken more seriously by me, but really, it's stupid to use the same music for two entirely different moods.

Still though, loving Unlimited compared to Extra. Whatever faggot said that Unlimited is Extra with military is fucking retarded, it actually has some story/interesting shit going on outside of haremshit.

>>7858810
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2ogpubPqCY
You mean this?
Because that was never played ironically in Extra.

>>7858914
That'll go away pretty fast though, the very beginning and very end are the only parts of Unlimited outside of training laced with retarded haremshit.

Trust me, I practically came over the infodumps at the very beginning and got let down when it did absolutely nothing with it afterwards.

An eroge with a harem, oh dear. Can you guys keep your retarded buzzwords on /a/?

>>7858936
But /a/ loves MuvLuv unconditionally.

I'm sorry that I don't like harem antics getting in the way of a seriously plot, I actually envy you for being able to stand that.

/jp/ - My Muv Luv playthrough blog

It's even worse that you highjacked a thread for it.

>>7858921
No. I know that one isn't, great song, but yeah, it was a different one.

>>7858976
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URUN7rvmk48
This one.

>>7858976
>>7858982
To be fair, there was only one part in Extra where this song played for more than five seconds.

>>7858941
But the contrast between the harem antics of Extra and Unlimited and shit getting real in Alternative are part of what makes Alternative great... Or at least what gives it such a big emotional impact.

The people not understanding the core significance of MLE and by extension Unlimited are pretty much Westerners (White people) who grew up only liking GRIMDARK and REAL DEAL.

If you are in this criteria, please kill yourselves. Not even mad.

>>7859304
I feel sorry for the REAL DEAL only crowd because they miss out on a lot of good eroge.

>>7859437
Yeah, and I'm sure if I jumped off a tall bridge you'd follow.

>>7859347
Nope.
True REAL DEAL eroge player such as myself enjoy ML+UL.
I never understood how people can say that Clannad is better than ML.
ML has Gundam jokes, Yuuko trolling, Takashi being awesome and Mikoto just being funny. Clannaids just have retarded girls doing retarded things. Being a retard is not a moe point.

>>7859549
clannad has sunohara and holy fuck nobody gives a shit, this thread is not about how awesome mla is.

>>7859549
I've never seen anybody say that. Unless you're talking about Clannad being better than just Extra, then I guess I can understand it. (It's been so long since I read Clannad that I can't really make a fair comparison either way.)

>>7859396
>>7859476
You are literally underage.

>>7859549
Yet it doesn't even have one romantic scene in the whole thing.

>>7859549
>and Mikoto making my dick feel funny

>>7859598
I am just making a general statement on how many say extra sucks for just being a generic high school harem while ignoring the same flaws for Clannad.
Outside of the stupid Lacross shit, I dont really find Extra for being that bad.

>>7859642
But Clannad isn't a generic highschool harem? Lets ignore the harem part for a second because that is redundant, but there's a whole lot more in Clannad that make in different in comparison to something like MuvLuv Extra.

Just checking, but have you read Clannad or just seen the anime?

>>7859669
>Just checking, but have you read Clannad or just seen the anime?
Oh, it's this faggot again.

>>7859697
I like how you assumed that I'm implying the Clannad adaptation was bad. The thing is, it most certainly wasn't. It's just that the particularities around discussing it would change drastically based on the answer. Get over it.

>>7859733
I've never talked to you before, though. Why would you quote that particular part of my post if you weren't referring to my question about the anime?

Maybe you should actually start presenting your central point instead of a constant stream of ad hominem directed at the wrong person.

>>7859751
Oh, but I'm not the one you were talking to about your beloved Clannaids right now, I just don't like you. I've seen you around doing the same shit before in similar discussions, you pathetic excuse for a human being, and my central point is that you're a cunt.

>>7859767
I was just trying to help him find the difference between the way people view Clannad and MuvLuv Extra, but it's clear this line of discussion is not worth pursuing due to general idiocy.

>Comparing MLE to Clannad
God damn has /jp/ gone downhill.

>>7859773
Again, I've never talked about Clannad on /jp/ before so you clearly have me confused with someone else.

I'm backing own now, good night /jp/.

>>7859798
Sure you didn't.
Either you're covering your own pathetic ass, or there's more of Clannad fans just as retarded as you.
Well, I guess both are likely.

>>7859775
I am the guy that make the comparison.
Firstly I didnt even call Clannad bad. And yes I finished the VN before I even watched after story.
Clannad has many many terrible routes and you are forced to play through them just so that you can get all the dragon balls to resurrect your dead wife and see ushio in AF.
The fucking laser game part is as bad as the Lacross shit in ML. Not to mention all the terrible Nagisa's mom make terrible bread and is running out of bread shop because someone insulted her bread and assortment of other I am a retard/air head jokes.

Thank god for Ushio, Sunohara, Tomoyo and Kotomi for saving Clannad.

>Kotomi
You're got to be kidding me. Kotomi was literally autistic. It was almost unbearable whenever she, Ryou and Nagisa were in the same room together. Thank god for Kyou.

Ixrec better do Subarashiki Hibi after forest although I doubt it. I'd be happy with Omega though.

I kinda wanna read clannad again, was there ever done more editing on it ? last time i read every single route other than after story. but i heard that the editing was esp. bad in that part

>>7860060
I'm pretty sure no work has been done on the editing it. But...

>last time i read every single route other than after story.
What the fuck were you thinking? Just go read it unedited or learn Japanese.

Does anyone know what ever happened to Gore Screaming Show?

>>7860068
oh it had nothing to do with the editing.. i just did not feel like being depressed for a month back then.. and i had already watched the anime

Fuck you, Clannad's comedy was hilarious. Akio especially.

You only hate Key games because they are popular anyway.

>Outside of the stupid Lacross shit, I dont really find Extra for being that bad.
What, you enjoyed them eating random food that everyone ejaculates over for no apparent reason? That was the worst part of Extra.

>>7860082
Who cares? It's shit, if you like fetish shit from it, just download the CG.

People, I watched the Tsukihime anime, and from that I can conclude that Tsukihime's plot was terrible!

People who call Extra as good as or even better than Clannad have obviously only seen the anime (or seen the anime then skipped through the common route because it's 'not important', making you as bad as people who skip Extra and Unlimited). When it comes to slice-of-life, Clannad is top-tier. If you really hate slice-of-life, you'll still dislike it, but in any other case you would notice Clannad's slice-of-life is infinitely better than Extra's. I am a fucking slice-of-life fan, and I dropped Extra because of how terrible it is. Clannad's slice-of-life is interesting and funny, while Extra's slice-of-life is not only generic, but so unremarkably executed that it's painfully boring.

Seems like nnl was treated better than Ixrec

>As for the MangaGamer/Amaterasu Translations news, ixrec has never said a bad word about us, so neither will we. Call it mutual respect. In addition, we're not qualified to comment about it. However, we'll just bullet the following points:

> - nbkz and bamboo are old friends, which helped things quite a bit. A handshake agreement happened perhaps one or two weeks after our first e-mail to minori. Our situation was unique in this regard.
> - minori owns everything pertaining to the visual novel, so there was no subcontracting BS.
> - We have a direct line to nbkz, the CEO of minori.
> - We had to use this direct line in order to obtain the alpha build. MangaGamer had given us one story while nbkz gave us a conflicting story. After the miscommunication was cleared up, we got the build. See? Communication is good!
> - No Name Losers also had a contingency plan in the event that we never received a build in a reasonable amount of time. Thankfully, we never had to put this plan into action, and we probably never will.
> - minori has granted us full override on the scripts. Therefore, you will not see any text or replacement issues like those in Koihime Musou. We're bypassing MangaGamer (to a certain extent; we'll explain later) and sending the scripts to minori directly. If there's any text issues in the release, the blame will rest wholly on us.

See, here goes that faggot again. Or one of those faggots.
Is it THAT FUCKING HARD to understand that your goddamn opinion isn't an objective fact and that others can have a different one? Are you that insecure that you have to try and discredit others instead of backing your opinion up with solid arguments? Is your feeble autistic mind really that scared that your beloved masterpiece might not be as universally acclaimed as you delude yourself into thinking it deserves to?
Goddammit.

>>7860953
why are you so mad

>>7860953
Just ignore him, there are a lot of delusional faggots on /jp/.

>>7860767
Don't worry. True /jp/sies know that nnl is the biggest pile of shit that an anus could excrete.

nice amount of green.
