That it is never used in the entirety of the internet-published English language calls bullshit on that. It's an overly literal translation of a metaphor that fails to put it into something sensical in English. "I have a low fence with my neighbor" is a nonsense phrase. That you can torture some kind of meaning out of it doesn't mean that it's not a fucked up sentence that shows zero effort. You can wring meaning out of nearly anything. If that's your sole standard, then what isn't valid?

Are you an idiot, it's an obvious metaphor. If you have a low fence with your neighbor it implies a closeness, no major need for privacy and that you're at least on good terms. Have you ever owned a house next to bad neighbors? Of course you put up a larger fence because if they're nosy little cunts.

I have no comments about the translation as I can't read the Japanese but to say that a metaphor that makes sense and is actually used although rarely isn't a metaphor and makes no sense is retarded.

All the apostrophized words in Cannonball are bugged out for me, but I assume something like that would have been noted during QC or whatever;so I wonder what the problem is. Also, liarsoft has a bunch of patches out for Cannonball, but the translation page makes no note of them. Would I be correct in assuming that they are therefore unnecessary, having installed from the released installer?

A year after the release of console version with no signs of it being backported to PC? I'd think they are doing it next instead of rereleasing KQ, although I have no official statement to present.

Yeti/Regista used this very engine in many PS2 (!) games, so there's nothing stopping them from backporting Xtend stuff to PC themselves, and they don't even have to wait for Vita to be hacked (unlike, say, Realta Nua).

High Society is the financial, political and social elite.
Wealthy businessmen, Hollywood actors, politicians etc.

Neighbours with high society means that the criminal underworld is very close with high society and that they frequent ties in terms of business and relationships.

And the low fence refers to the fact that the dividing line between the two isn't particularly strong

A string is like Rance took x damage, or something random like that. Its the generic text that all RPGs have. While a message is an actual line of text for story or character purposes.
For Rance Quest, strings might also be reward dialogue or something after a quest. Just think of strings as gameplay lines, and messages as story or dialogue lines.

There is a separate all-ages patch of the game that, iirc, takes out all h and gore, while in the vanilla patch you have the gore in and the option to toggle h on/off.

Although I will say that this game has somewhat story-relevant h, so I wouldn't recommend turning it off. Gore is up to you.

English is my second language and I don't think that line sounds like word salad at all. At worst, the 'fence' metaphor can qualify as questionable but I think it is suitable, considering the context ('neighbours with high society').
I'm not saying it doesn't sound like pretentious garbage, it's just very easy to grasp the meaning.

You understand that he had no idea what he was doing, right? He butchered simple things like 'denpa' (turning it into 'an imaginary girl' rather than a 'crazy, spacy' one) because either the J->C translation butchered it or he killed it from going C->E.

Production values son.
I wonder how much minori spends on mainly using CGs instead of sprites. Well, not that I'll complain about it.

Quite frankly, the goals don't seem too far-fetched so far. Sales from Eden and Ef limited edition are counting so you can expect basically without any doubts that Supipara chapter one will be funded and released on western market. About the second chapter, I suppose it's reasonable to expect its release but only time will tell.

They put up a mea culpa explaining that the last time they tried to release a game on Steam there was some issue where it actually got delayed so this time they tried something different but the VN somehow got released early.

For the record: For most of its history /jp/ hasn't had any strong opinion on MangaGamer. Before Kira Kira's release/AX2009 they were ridiculed for their terrible translations, directly after AX2009 they were very well-liked (with some protests in late 2009 due to potential Higurashi censoring, which was quickly resolved by choosing not to censor it). As fan translation/official release cooperations failed to work out well /jp/'s opinion on official releases decreased in general (and /jp/ didn't have any strong opinion towards MangaGamer, though /jp/ was very negative towards JAST for a long time and still somewhat so) and there hasn't been any notable changes in /jp/'s neutrality towards MG until Sekai Project and AX2014 (where opinion of MG became more positive for licensing Gakthun and not being Sekai Project).

I can't fault that since the groups that made the game are getting money now. It's terrible, but if the creators are getting money I can't see why it's a bad thing.

It's pretty funny because when Carpe Ferguson worked with easygamestation to release in the west the same people were complaining that they didn't like the "way" he did it, ruining the game and it not being "true" to what was meant to be.

This college Japanese 101 class shit is pretty annoying.

Your argument is no different. JAST, MP, and IF. They all have shitty translations. Trying to point out a new shill group has shitty translations is like pissing in the shit ocean.

No, thats the whole point. JAST and MG, at least for last few years, are putting lots of resources and effort to make quality releases. Cartagra was delayed for more than half a year to make sure text is as polished as possible.
Tons of JAST games are delayed because Makoto is not happy with current quality or various compatibility issues.
SP, on the other hand, has this "release and sell now, then make up excuse about 'not final form' shit, hope everyone forgets about it". First they threw half-assed WEE ep 1 on Steam, and even steam-tards are raging there on forum demanding more polished translation, now this NekoPara trial.

They did, but you would the SP would learn from their competitors mistakes. The only real reason it happened was because the market was relatively untapped and lack of resources for good translations among other things.

Koestl has yet to translate one word of one line for SP, and won't until he's finished working for MG which isn't going to be for another six to eight months minimum if he continues at his current pace. Might as well call Moogy one of SP's translators.

I have been wondering this since all you fuckers got all hyped about widescreen and made it the standard. Like I've been saying for years, you're not getting extra horizontal space out of nowhere, you're just cropping vertical space.

Quite the opposite, releasing a non-widescreen game on PC in 2014 is bizarre. We're only used to it because most of the stuff that gets translated is from when VNs were still 4:3, and the VN industry was slow to catch on.

Whenever a new 4:3 VN is released I immediately see comments ridiculing the aspect ratio.

The whole NekoPara stuff started off as a doujin/artbook, we of course won't know how much % wise of CGs and that is porn until it's released but it's a huge part of the selling point because Sayori's art.

>If eden* doesn't sell enough copies in the first place, there won't ever BE a hard copy available to purchase at all.

I honestly can't figure out why MG reasons that digital sales can effectively gauge how much hard-copies will sell and why they are so insistent on this method of selling their titles. With this method they are basically saying "in case you bought our digital version, if you want the hard-copy buy the hard-copy" and "if you want a hard-copy buy our digital version and if we sell enough you might see it". To top on this, those who buy digital versions don't even get a discount.

I can't say I'm fond of this method because it just means that MG doesn't know how much a hard-copy will affect the initial sales of a certain title. Even if MG doesn't have enough capital to safely print copies on the initial release of a title, they could try to develop on a initial phase a constant pre-order system for hard-copies. They could also take a leap of faith and at the same time they release the digital version of a certain title, also release a hard-copy to see how it goes. Eden was a great candidate to do this but I suppose it's too late; I'm not sure if Evangile is a good candidate because I'm under the impression that it isn't a well known title; Euphoria is complicated due to legal reasons; Gahkthun is probably the best candidate.

As someone who actually buy games from MG store, I really want to see things like this get changed.

I agree, I'm not really interested in digital copies of VNs. To me they're a very collectable niche hobby and at the end of the day I'd much rather buy a physical JP copy that comes with the bonuses and such than a digital EN copy which... Is annoying, I want to support the localization industry but I just can't because I'm not going to buy the same product twice to do so or buy the inferior version, I don't see why you can't have a pre-order (tentative) option depending on how much interest there is.

They could at the very least offer a discount or "upgrade" option. Buying the digital copy, you're pretty much purely supporting the artists. Buying a physical copy, you're supporting the artists and covering the cost of production. Ideally they'd keep those two costs separate.

I'm sure people would be more willing to buy digital if that was the case. They'd be able to get the best version possible, regardless of how things turn out.

I buy physical copies because I like possessing a physical copy of something I enjoyed a lot. As an example, I enjoyed Demonbane so much that besides buying the hard-copy version from JAST I also bought "Deus Machina Demonbane - Complete Illustrations" from J-List.

I want to let you both (or just the individual) know how stupid you are.

You are entirely missing the connotations and the implications of the line.

"[T]he fence is low" is not being used to describe just distance, but rather a presence of barriers. What separates the wealthy from the poor is the presence of barriers. For example, I belong to a Yacht club where you are only allowed entry if your family was tied to its founding or if you paid an insane "new members fee". However, during the 80s in Miami, cocaine came into fashion, thus there were a few people who did not have to pay the "new members fee" and were able to join the club, as they were entertaining the wealthy patrons of the club (and bringing them cocaine).

Thus, in addition to being figurative language that works well with the neighbors analogy, it also describes how the criminal class, as long as they meet certain standards, can easily mingle with the elites. The fence is meant to keep out low income degenerates, not influential criminals.

It's probably because it'd be a dick move to tell them 'I don't know, go ask Winged Cloud' knowing full well Winged Cloud won't answer because the guy behind WC is a prick who simply doesn't care as long as he gets the money.

Do you even have to ask? I certainly hope that's not true, because that pretty much eliminates the chance that someone professional finishes the existing translation. And even if Fuwanovel somehow manages to translate Majikoi, some idiot will certainly feel that a "retranslation" is in order, and will begin from scratch - of course, this will end in failure as well, because retranslations from scratch never finish.

Based on the posts I found, seemed like Kosuna had problems with a chinese line or two in the game? And hasn't reported back. Dowolf(who was already completing other routes aside from Miyako) jumped in because he didn't want to start S before getting the original completed. And he's doing his own translation. That's all I get from simply searching names in the topic.

But since you're Fuwanovel scum, you're just trying to salvage your shit the same way Cudder does.
>People are sniping lines

Get it all out of your system so you can fuck off back to hanging out with Cudder and all the other illiterate shitstains of your shithole forum.

He translated スイーツ as "dumb blond."

Every time someone uses 俺様, he translates it as them announcing their name. As in "I, Gakuto, will".
Literally. Every. Single. Time.

And then there's this.

Kay. So you judge based on only two lines?
I can understand if you judge based on a scene. That makes sense. But only two lines? No matter how stupid a mistake it was, they tend to happen, even if they are rare. I don't know this guy. hell, I haven't even seen his videos and I don't really care to defend him.
I just have an issue with someone judging something based on 1-2 lines. If you had atleast gone through 20 lines I really wouldn't be giving you shit, though a scene is better.

>>12734227
This is more like it. sounds like someone who read more than two lines.

Though depending on context, he might have gotten the スイーツ part right. That word can be used to mean something like "dumb blond". It's internet slang.

Do you know what the slang means? Though Like I said, this depends on context. I don't have the context for which スイーツ was used so it's a moot point.

>Her family runs a candy store.
And? Again, context.

For example. who said the word? Toward who?
Toward her? Maybe it's a play on words. Calling her sweet because she rounds a candy store and describing her personality as a burn.(Of course, the play on words doesn't work well in english. Calling a person sweet in english usually means kind and caring.)

I don't know the context. so I can't accurately judge.

Games aren't region locked on PSN but the stores themselves are region locked, so you can't buy US DLC for example with an EU game. As such codes will be region specific, you'll have to make a JP account.

Why the fuck you would post this question in this thread baffles me however.

I tried it a few hours ago. 10 lines in, my computer crashed. When I tried it again it worked fine all the way through.

Translation quality doesn't seem to be bad, at least. But I'm not a native English speaker, so what do I know?

Anyway, hopefully this will be the time an August game translation will be finished. I'm looking forward to the full release. Kana best girl.

Just looked through it for a few minutes. It could really use an editing pass. There's a lot of wonky phrasing and unnatural transitions between lines. As far as actual errors go, there are a fair few, but not as many as I feared, I guess? It's better than Koiken Otome, at least (talk about damning with faint praise).

Assuming you're talking about me, no, I have no relation to Fuwanovel. I started my project in mid-2013 and finally admitted defeat a few months ago after only finishing about 9000 lines.

I might revisit it eventually once I have more experience, assuming no one credible picks it up before then. I wouldn't recommend getting your hopes up, though.

Source is common sense since mangagamer just announced another lilith game for December 26th and they usually give their big titles a preorder period of a month.

"Conventional" "/jp/" "Wisdom" was that eden was going to be a December release, with NTY to follow in January and Evangile in time for valentines day since they're all close to done.
