I have lost passion for visual novels, anime, everything subculture as I am starting to come to terms with my adulthood, which holds little interest in subculture.

If you've reached the point in your life where you're translating visual novels, then haven't you pretty much gone past the point where you care about having a normal life?

Regardless, it seems like this will be better in the long run for anyone looking forward to a Hatsuyuki Sakura translation.

Well I know that, it was very fucking confusing and depressing at the same time. All i remember is some shit about the mc turning into a crow randomly and in the end they both fucking died and were reborn as kids or some shit. Are the other routes for the characters different in the game? im guessing the vn is super different right? Are all the routes worth playing as they have their own stories?

I have talent, though. It basically ruined me for life.

Everything has always come naturally to me. I've never needed to study, so I spent my time goofing off, skipping lectures, and then cramming everything an hour before exams and passing without issue. Because of this, I never learned self-discipline. I can't open a text book unless there's a deadline looming, which means learning another language is impossible for me.

I never said that. I said talent exists. By which I mean that, in my experience, it's much easier for me to learn grammar and vocabulary than it is for my peers.

That's not to say there aren't people who are even better than me. I knew one guy who was learning Japanese, Chinese, and Korean all at the same time and he was top of the class in all three, as an English native speaker.

no you imagined that because you have a colossal ego and want to think you're special at something because your environment tells you otherwise

ps: being better at something than 'your peers' does not mean you are better at it than 'the average person', and being better at somethign than 'the average person' also sometimes does not mean you are 'good' at that 'thing'

Excuse me?

In 7th grade, I took an SAT test without preparing for it at all, it was spur-of-the-moment, I knew about it about an hour ahead of time and didn’t do any research or anything. I scored higher on it than the average person using it to apply for college in my area.

An IQ test has shown me to be in the 99.9th percentile for IQ. This is the highest result the test I was given reaches; anything further and they’d consider it to be within the margin of error for that test.

My mother’s boyfriend of 8 years is an aerospace engineer who graduated Virginia Tech. At the age of 15, I understand physics better than him, and I owe very little of it to him, as he would rarely give me a decent explanation of anything, just tell me that my ideas were wrong and become aggravated with me for not quite understanding thermodynamics. He’s not particularly successful as an engineer, but I’ve met lots of other engineers who aren’t as good as me at physics, so I’m guessing that’s not just a result of him being bad at it.

I’m also pretty good at engineering. I don’t have a degree, and other than physics I don’t have a better understanding of any aspect of engineering than any actual engineer, but I have lots of ingenuity for inventing new things. For example, I independently invented regenerative brakes before finding out what they were, and I was only seven or eight years old when I started inventing wireless electricity solutions (my first idea being to use a powerful infrared laser to transmit energy; admittedly not the best plan).

I have independently thought of basically every branch of philosophy I’ve come across. Every question of existentialism which I’ve seen discussed in SMBC or xkcd or Reddit or anywhere else, the thoughts haven’t been new to me. Philosophy has pretty much gotten trivial for me; I’ve considered taking a philosophy course just to see how easy it is.

You have it mixed up your head. People's environments can make them better at things. Your brain's neurons might be arrayed more optimally at birth than somebody else's, making you better at thinking, for example. Tracing the temporal trajectories each of the particles in those neurons back, you'll find their 'momentum' originates from the first thing that ever happened, whatever that was. It's where the responsibility for everything that came after lies. But anyway, you can be better at things because of your environment and not because of some invisible or abstract factor assigned to you at birth.

Genetics are environmental too, you know. Even your body is part of your environment, including your DNA, and the DNA that helped make you. The only thing that's 'you' is your consciousness. I think, therefore I am, and all.

You're not describing engineering, you're describing inventing there. Engineering is all about finding numbers, and manipulating and maximising/minimizing them.

It's about making things practical, the keyword being practical. Until you put numbers on how much power your laser takes, and what efficiency it can run at, you're not practising engineering.

The main point is that current thinking on the effect of environmental and genetic factors on behavior is that it's neither entirely environmental or genetic, it's a mix of about 50% of each.

For something like talent, it's partly environmental and partly genetic. To seriously claim otherwise is to go against modern scientific consensus and decades of research.

Yes, 'nature-versus-nurture'. They are using 'environment' differently from how I am. My definition of 'environment' includes genetics too, and it's perfectly rational to do so.

I think there are a lot of people who are interested in VN and know Japanese enough to translate them. The problem itself, more than the disinterest in VN, is the disinterest in translating; it's a lot of work: translating is much harder and tiring than just reading.

So translators pick somethng to get their dicks sucked? If you love a VN and want to share it with other people that's a worthy reason to start a translation, not the former. I'm not denying that you can enjoy your bits of gratefulness from other people but your main objective should be sharing what you like. No matter how you share it.

If the other people are dumb enough to not even recognize the amount of work you put through the process of translating, then you should only care about people who recognize it. We all know the world is full of pricks, hypocrites and other scum and that's we end up distancing ourselves from the world, in different levels. But the internet is also full of those... what's the difference? that you can choose to don't give a fuck about those without consequences so use that ability to ignore the scum.

Some do. Those are the translators that pick up something, translate for a bit, then drop the translation and disappear.

>But the internet is also full of those... what's the difference?
Nobody will run up to you in real life only to shout in your face that what you did was crap, what you like is crap, and you and anybody who likes the same things you do is homosexual. Haters (frequently people who don't actually hate the thing itself but just want to rile people up) are tons and tons more vocal than people who are grateful towards translators.

This. It's a lot of work to translate a VN and unless you're really interested in releasing your work for free, there's almost no pay off.

Assuming tools are available for the game you could probably just extract the Japanese CG and stick it back in the English version. If tools aren't already available you're probably out of luck, unless you happen to have enough reverse engineering knowledge to do the hacking yourself, but if you're asking this question at all I'm gonna guess no you don't.

I am going to let it all out in this post now.

>>11427472
I am seriously tired of this bullshit now.

What moogy wrote:
"anyway ixrec deserves everything he gets from now on since he decided to just randomly come out and state that good writing doesn't exist and his translations can't be bad because of this"

What Ixrec really wrote:
"This question stems from the myth that good writing is about the craftsmanship of the individual sentence... What really makes something well-written is stuff like how much detail you put into a scene, what things you choose to describe, the ratio of dialogue to exposition to action to explanation, the pacing of each scene as well as the entire story, what information you give to the reader and what you withhold, how subtlely you manage to foreshadow things, and so on."

I am honestly amazed at how seriously Moogy's word is taken and people here and on tlwiki start giving Ixrec the flak. I shouldn't even talk about the "cool guys" that hang around in #tlwiki. I am more than sure that the ones stirring the drama here and everywhere else are idiots from that channel, most of them who take Moogy and co's word at face-value.

<Moogy> ixrec needs to realize that people who aren't just random trolls disagree with him

What the above quote is saying to me is, "I want Ixrec to accept me." I occasionally go and read tlwiki's log and whenever Ixrec announces a new project, tweets something, writes a new then Moogy is the first one to copy-paste his tweets or review whatever on the channel and comment on it because he thinks he has an obligation to berate Ixrec himself, his taste's and his opinions. Then Moogy is nearly always the person to be the first one to comment on Ixrec's reviews. If he holds such animosity toward Ixrec then I don't understand why he always has to go post on Amaterasu's blog.
Also, "the people" that Moogy has mentioned almost always have a relation to tlwiki. So far I haven't seen Makoto or Phar criticize Ixrec.

<Kaisos> Now please stop objecting to my posts in ways that have nothing to do with what I was actually trying to say. It's extremely irritating."
<Kaisos> TL: Don't question my worldview

There is absolutely no need for me to comment on what herkz and Kaisos say. Honestly, they are so full of bullshit. And so is Moogy.
Now, I like Ixrec. I like his guide. He is a very cool person to talk to and he doesn't tell people to go fuck off and die because they have asperger's. I am learning Japanese and I will read VNs in Japanese. And I will read translations of VNs too because I am not a US/UK native. Everyone can spew whatever BS they can about Ixrec but you guy's are not stopping me. Whatever you people say will never make me think low of Ixrec. It just goes on to tell me how bad you people are.

Now I'm ready for the "He's gay for Ixrec" jokes or like last year when I defended Ixrec some cool guy from tlwiki calling me gay for Ixrec. Haha, fun days.

Oh yeah? I invite you to go ahead and fucking blow my mind about how it's "so fucking retarded."
As far as I can tell Ixrec was talking about how good writing is "only" judged by "the craftsmanship of the individual sentence". Then later on he expands on what good writing is and I agree with that. Would books or VNs be good to read only if they had well-written sentences while leaving out the things that Ixrec mentioned? Go ahead, find fault with what Ixrec.

oh wow I was getting the suspended from posting while a ban was queued and im still in the game lol

anyway ixrec sperg dude. I was qc under ixrec. he bitched and whined all the time about the moogster and people saying how shit his tl was. I mean this was happening back when he was doing the cross channel patch. that was the first time people started to look at his tl and see how shitty it was. they even had a private channel just for the whining

anyway the point is that ixrec is a bitch and no one should spend time worrying about that.

Good writing is a sum of things, "craftsmanship of the individual sentence" being one part of it.
And yes good translations are actually rewrite, you'd know that if you knew more than one language.

Translating is more than replacing A by B, a language is more than a simple sum of words.
A word in Japanese for example may encompass a concept that doesn't exist per se in english for example, basically a language is the sum of the lives and custom of a set of people.
Being faithful to the original while keeping a good flow and be nice to read is an incredibly hard task if you want to do it well.

Starting with H-scenes doesn't say a thing. It's about the porn : non-porn content ratio, and Forest has very little porn compared to the amount of non-porn story.

He's not entirely wrong (except about Forest). For example, though I've never read them myself, I've heard Mugen Kairou and Euphoria both have good stories despite being nukige.

Pretty much all of the story existed solely to set up the porn though. That doesn't mean it wasn't interesting or well written in its own right, but it's still patently obvious that the game was meant to be first and foremost for masturbatory purposes. One of the characters even breaks the 4th wall to remark on this fact once or twice.

And Dante's Inferno is a story written entirely to stroke Dante's ego.

It would be a Nukige if
1) There was more porn. There are relatively few scenes given the length of the VN.
2) They hadn't spent -so- much time on everything else. Nukiges are sex first, plot second. There was a significant amount of time and effort put into forest that had nothing to do with setting up sex. The length of the non-ero story is what distinguishes it from a nukige.

This is like calling Katahane a nukige. Did it set things up for sex? Yes. Is that all it was about? No.
