>>45419495
Hard to tell by a single line but in that one the FTL is bette. The fantl is more accurate meanwhile shira struggle even to translate a single line without going liberal. Remember that in a translation you usually translate the text as it is changing only the needed parts to make it more fluent. Localizations are reserved for stuff that you want to adapt to eng but it doesn't mesh well (or the company thinks so) so you have to rewrite part of it.

Honestly the problem is just political types inserting their shit in translations rather than just accurately translating the lines in the first place. Also there is a common theme of Right Wing types also making the mistake of thinking things are "woke" when the reality is it's just bad ethics of not adhering to being faithful to the source material and editors not caring as much as they should about it because they think the original content is boring and wish to "spice" things up and ruin it.

Their artists do some good uncensored work, so it's a shame they probably won't be able to do that by self publishing.

The fact that he's complaining about a specific kind of content that's very controversial and has a history of being censored in translation, despite this being a fan project that he's not forced to work on, and that he does this behind closed doors and is only damage controlling because the logs were leaked, reflects very poorly on him.

He's complaining about the writer overusing a gag in that screenshot. Some reading comprehension would really do wonders for your mental health considering you get uppity about things rather easily.
Also can you name some examples of incest being censored in VN translation. It's not something I've heard about.
>and that he does this behind closed doors and is only damage controlling because the logs were leaked
Isn't that their public discord server?
>It's like asking us to trust someone like Ittaku to translate a loli route properly.
He did though? I know it's difficult for you because you don't actually care about visual novels, but if you actually paid attention to visual novel releases you'd have realized that Clover Day's released a few months ago with him as the translator and that in 2017 he released ToHeart2, both of which have loli routes and I haven't seen any complaints about either.

Not everyone is leftist. That's something you might be biased towards seeing and ended up with that mindset. Also what is ironic is considering that even if leftists were replaced by the opposite side, you would still be having the same problem but in the other direction. Ethics is important and it makes sense considering that Video Games and even VN's to some extent can escape scrutiny but Manuscripts or other things can not if someone decided to insert memespeak or political stuff where it had none of it in the raw Japanese versions. It prevents the politics from getting in the way of an accurate translation.

The cartel never dies. They're just rewriting Nukitashi now.

[Anonymous No.]

>>45440241
Why would they have to rewrite it when the main plot is (spoilers):
The main villain in Nukitashi 2 is Akino Mizuhiki. Akino is, explicitly, transgender - physically male but identifies as female. Akino went to the nukitashi island because she thought it would be a place where people would finally accept her for who she was, but then found out that they're even more discriminatory against people with non-standard sexual orientations than everywhere else in Japan. Skipping over a bunch of tragic backstory and plot to the end of the game, Akino went insane and evil and built an iron man duck suit and has an evil plan that essentially amounts to blowing a bunch of shit up on the island and MC builds a spider-man webshooter/3d manuever gear powered by his ejaculations to stop her. Akino rees a bunch about how upset she is nobody accepts her as a woman and how if nobody accepts her they should all suffer, and MC says I'll accept you as a woman, and Akino goes "OK prove it" and MC whips off his pants and reveals his rock-hard cock and says "If I didn't think you were a woman I wouldn't be this hard' and then fucks Akino in the ass (this also teleports him to a different dimension for reasons I don't have time to go into). The game ends with them changing the laws of the island so that people are allowed to wear whatever uniforms, and in your student ID card instead of the gender being filled in for you you're allowed to write in whatever you want. MC tracks down Akino and asks if she's happy and she says yes (scene makes a point of repeatedly referring to Akino with female pronouns). In the after story, MC and Akino fuck a bunch, and in the other routes Akino sticks around as a comic relief side character who rees every time that MC picks a girl because they happened to be born with a disgusting vagina.

I don't care either because I know these games are farcical. If you interpret the tranny stuff as sincere you also have to interpret the pro-pedophilia as sincere.

[Anonymous No.]

>>45445749
No you don't have to interpret every joke as serious in a comedy game. But obviously if the main plot is about a tranny that's wronged by society and you fix this by accepting him as a woman, it is supportive of trannies no matter what jokes are being told along the way. Fact of the matter it will continue to get worse because this shit was successful.
If you think otherwise I hope you either educate or hang yourself soon.

It's all about whether anyone cares to investigate the title, since vndb is default-allow until someone complains. Since few people care about EVNs, they often stay... it's not just EVNs really, semiobscure HRPG eroge that probably shouldn't be on there can go long times without action too.

Because Refrain never got a PC release and 360 emulation is bad, so if you want to play that on PC in Japanese you're stuck with the low resolution PSP version. Presumably MG used the 360 assets.

I notice this as well. Like i hate to be that guy but i am finding issues with MG and finding more reasons to like JAST in recent years. They really need to take the criticism to heart on the fact that the payment processer is busted while on JAST it works, even on Steam it works for some reason i need to put my money on a different card for it to process. Also i can agree that maybe for bigger releases with what the guy mentioned, is there should be Artbooks or some kind of manual translated. But i would say that criticism is kind of dumb for smaller releases.

This is just another example, but every single one of the "old-guard" of the VN translation circles has been outed as a disingenuous, scummy, money-hungry, piece of shit and yet somehow people continue to defend them.

SR was SLC. He did the earlier Alicesoft projects for MG. I forgot if he did Quest or not, but he's the reason Eve 1, Rance VI, and Sengoku Rance have much smaller file sizes than the original Jap releases. Quest is also about 1.3 as opposed to about 4 GB.The wonders of file optimization. Rance IX is significantly smaller too, but I'm pretty sure that SLC wasn't the programmer there. I'm not really sure if there are any notable eroge releases that were optimized for space, but I'd imagine that's not high priority in any case, considering what western AAA devs get away with.
