For Sideboob Story it was pretty obvious that it wasn't going to be a huge hit since it's already been available for a year and is a sequel to the previous game so only people who bought the original on steam will purchase the sequel. Any extra sales are okay with me.
Lilycle was most likely a flop, it's not even in MGs top 5 anymore on their website.
As a side note you should use steamdb instead of steam charts since it has more accurate numbers.

There's not much information about the changes. From some forum posts on a Key forum I was able to discern that the ending was indeed changed, but to what degree I can't say. The posts were written by an ESL and hard to understand. I don't think it uses the anime ending if that's what you're worried about.

I still have a hard time believing this. The whole harry potter series took me at least 10 days spending at least 7 hours a day. If I remember right DCIII clocked in to about 52 hours or so. It probably has something to do with reading speed but it's still a big enough difference.

AFAIK he went to Japan just to meet the developer of the series. He also did some pretty neat stuff like manually photoshopping a textbox for the Maidens of Michael youtube theater clips so that people who watch them don't just read them with plain subtitles.
He may be close to being autistic, but at least he enjoys working on visual novels or yurige in general. It wouldn't be bad if we had more people in this scene who actually like visual novels and don't straight up insult their customers.

I doubt that. I may have put that in, but I don't actually see that many people really wanting Clochette titles.

Yuri, moege, and gameplay barely count as hints unless that implies that BL and otome will be ignored this year. Still, there'll probably be more moege announced than last year though I doubt MG will announce more yuri and gameplay titles than they did last year (4 yuri titles including Kindred Spirits and 3 gameplay titles including Escalayer). Cat is a pretty bizarre hint; it could mean anything from catgirl VNs to something that panders to cat ladies.

>>21099421
The otomefags are better coordinated than the moefags, and there's more consensus on which otomege are worth it than which moege are worth it.The other companies focusing a lot on moege releases as well doesn't help matters since moege people would have asked for otherwise might have already been licensed by either Nekonyan or Sol Press. It's also possible that there is a lot of overlap between gameplayfags and moefags, so Evenicle 2 ate up a lot of votes.

>>21099441

Probably the third of a series. I don't think they would hint the same VN for two years in a row.

Otoboku 3 seems mostly standalone, so it doesn't seem necessary to release it before 2. Though obviously, I'm sure Otoboku fans would rather have both 2 and 3 as opposed to just 3.

There are a multitude of titles with the that the 3 could refer to, anon. Imopara 3 is obvious, but there's Rance 03, Kyonyuu Fantasy 3 (Gaiden 2 counts too since it's the third game with Lute as the protagonist), and Beat Valkyrie Ixseal (which is the third Beat game).

Normalfags and ironic weebs? This "only whales use twitter" narrative you're trying to use isn't convincing me.

Thanks for showing me that. I didn't realize there were so few women on Twitter. That said, I still think that a bigger portion of the female fanbase resides on Twitter, whereas male fans are more likely to not use Twitter, comparatively. Women being far more homogeneous in their voting habits is pretty obvious, which does explain why the list looks this way. However, you can't prove that titles that were gang-voted on haven't been removed from the list. Haro did say in the past that she removes votes if it's the same person as another vote. That could be used as a pretext to remove enough legitimate votes so that something doesn't end up on the list.

I hate to say this, but just because people vote in the survey doesn't mean they'll actually buy titles when they actually come out. Princess Evangile was a hit, but I haven't heard about any huge moege successes after that.

Meanwhile, gameplay titles require alot more testing and programming resources, and they might have trouble making new partnerships and it could just be taking time to. And they probably think it's just easier and safer just to mostly focus on Alicesoft gameplay titles for now.

The cat hint is most likely that short Moonstone visual novel from last year Nyanto Suteki na Natsuiro Days.

I would say 3 is ImoPara 3, but that is already pretty picked up and translated already and it would be too obvious as a hint. I would say it's most likely 3rdEye just like some anons said already or Romance of the Three Kingdoms (unlikely).

I never bothered with MML since the common route literally exists to setup a harem route but doesn't have one, it's the stupidest fucking thing I've ever seen. Hapymaher had too much filler and frustrating drama to be enjoyable and Sukisuki I never bothered to read due to the translation being bad. The only things they released that entire year that I read was Sideboob Story which was fantastic and Kuroinu which was atrocious and missing literally half the content with everything happening way out of order and they had the balls to charge $75 for it.

and then after a year of updates saying SOON they release a blog post saying
>oh yeah sekai announced a proper release and contacted us so we're selling it, sooo no patch.
It makes them as a group and as individuals look really fucking bad for leading people on for so long, only to tell them to get fucked and then never end up releasing it.

Sekai Project has 40+ licenses without even 1 release date, by now people should realize that they are licensing as many titles as possible just to block out their competition from getting them.
Buying out all possible fuwanovel fan-translations regardless of quality, killing off and scaring everybody who wants to fan-translate something is also part of it.

2018 releases from MG, omitting all 3rd party titles

- Sorcery Jokers - mediocre chuunige
- The Spirit Master of Retarnia -Conqueror of the Labyrinth- - mediocre gameplay title
- A Kiss For The Petals - Maidens of Michael - yuri title where you'll be lost on the side couples if you haven't read the fan TLed titles
- Funbag Fantasy: Sideboob Story - good follow up to the original but name makes people think it's a sidestory
- Supipara - Alice the magical conductor. Chapter #02 - mediocre, incomplete, episodic, developer quit developing any more titles
- Magical Marriage Lunatics - mediocre moege that doesn't have a harem route despite seemingly setting up for one
- The House in Fata Morgana - A Requiem for Innocence - follow up to the original that has several sidestories on top of the main one, ruined some of the Morgana's backstory by adding new characters to it
- Kuroinu Ch.3 - finale to the trilogy, but the split version is apparently worse than the full version, but it was the split version that was licensed likely due to cost
- Higurashi When They Cry Hou Ch.6 Tsumihoroboshi - new installment in the popular series, but at the rate MG is releasing it I'm not going to pick it up until Ch. 8 is released
- Evenicle - legitimately good gameplay title from Alicesoft
- Hapymaher - I read part of it but thought that certain scenes and dialogues just dragged on, making it feel very padded out
- Sweet Switch - super short nukige
- Sisterly Bliss ~Don't Let Mom Find Out~ - short yuri title that's only main attraction is the yandere endings
- Koropokkur in Love ~A Little Fairy’s Tale~ - MG's mediocre attempt at making their own title, super generic all ages
- Bitter Exclusion - super short nukige
- If You Love Me, Then Say So! - decent quality moege that's main draw is the gimmick of the girls being able to reject the MC based on your choices

Evenicle was legit a good gameplay title. It would be even better if only it had more group/harem scenes, half of the time you get cock blocked or them wasting H-scenes on characters like Colpis.
Hope Evenicle 2 fixes that or at least adds 1-2 H-scenes to each girl.

MG seems to have submitted Rance VI+5D to Steam, only to see it fail to get approval. It isn't too surprising to see it get rejected after the controversy over Rape Day last month. I doubt Valve would have been interesting in stirring that hornet's nest again by bringing onboard a franchise that is infamous for having Rance as a protagonist, regardless of what censoring MG was willing to do. Sengoku Rance is a strong enough game that MG could probably make an all ages version with or without an R18 patch if they wished to, but the franchise's notoriety would probably still give it a good shot of getting struck down regardless.

That said though, it is quite a bit of potential revenue that MG will end up missing out on, especially if Sengoku ends up seeing the same fate. While Rance VI+5D likely would have likely done relatively well, the upcoming Sengoku Rance would have likely dwarfed most of MG's Steam releases by a considerable margin, considering how well the title is known from Takajun's fanTL release.

I doubt Valve would have been interesting in stirring that hornet's nest again by bringing onboard a franchise that is infamous for having Rance as a protagonist, regardless of what censoring MG was willing to do.
They will then talk about what was wrong and what they need to do to get the game on Steam and it will be on there within 4 months. It's a long drawn out process but worth it in the long run.
>MG could probably make an all ages version with or without an R18 patch if they wished to, but the franchise's notoriety would probably still give it a good shot of getting struck down regardless.
It's highly possible that a R18 patch would work only because it would prevent Steam from receiving anything negative.

>I'm feel at this point the reason they won't explain themselves is because if they actually tell people what they object to, developers will just turn around and point out dozens of examples of them not applying those rules, and they don't want to be called out on it.

Well he is 100% right about that.

>>	Anonymous Thu Apr 4 09:29:15 2019 No.21109039 >>21109007 Is there anything more objectionable in Rance VI+5D than what was in Evenicle? As it really doesn't make much sense if one is allowed and the other isn't.

>>	Anonymous Thu Apr 4 09:31:22 2019 No.21109046 >>21109039 The only thing more objectionable is the protagonist doing the rape however Evenicle had more fucked up stuff.

>>21109046
like a drugged woman being used as a breeding sow or a monster raping a girl for weeks and then devouring said girl? That's some pretty fucked up shit for steam. Watchdogs had gangs drugging up girls and banging them but i'd definitely say it's the lesser of evils.

>>	Anonymous Thu Apr 4 09:38:41 2019 No.21109073 >>21109046 Doesn't Evenicle also has the protag doing rape to the dragon girl?. Maybe not quite the same level as doing it nearly all the time but it is there, though I imagine Valve probably didn't look closely into it to check.

I am so confused by Steam. There are tons of eroge there already, and among those that are there you'll find both tame and extreme content.
And then you have tame as fuck eroge being banned from the store and other extreme games banned or allowed. Do they toss coins or something? How are these decisions made?

It's even weirder with something like Rance considering it'd actually make more money than most other games, if the monetary gain matters to Valve.

>>	Anonymous Thu Apr 4 11:03:55 2019 No.21109476 >>21108764 >They will then talk about what was wrong and what they need to do to get the game on Steam The problem with Rance is most likely it's famous for having a rapist protagonist. Rance's character isn't something they can edit out.

>>	Anonymous Thu Apr 4 11:05:08 2019 No.21109481 Isn't steam approval up to the individual who examine the submission? Meaning that it's purely up to the person and his morals and taste

>>	Anonymous Thu Apr 4 11:06:13 2019 No.21109490 >>21109023 I don't think that will work since Valve can just say it's for curation purposes.

>>	Anonymous Thu Apr 4 11:08:17 2019 No.21109502 If it was only submitted recently, then MG likely just had bad timing coming after the Rape Day incident. Valve might start rejecting any vn with a notable amount of rape in it.

>>	Anonymous Thu Apr 4 11:33:17 2019 No.21109648 They've been rejecting random VNs with school settings, so that could be an automatic rejection. The other is just characters they deem look too young, but might get away with if they're said to be a 1,000 year old vampire loli in the VN.
