What do you do when you get to a point in a VN where it is boring as shit. Do you just click away or do you feel you absolutely must read everything?

And no, I wouldn't normally do this in novels but VNs are typically books for retards.

Does flayable hearts have an English patch?

Usually I force myself to finish it. It's not like I have anything better to do.

>> No.5098954

I save, and go do something else for a while, then come back and read through as much as I can before boring myself to death, then repeat.

>> No.5098955

Typically the VN is not actually boring at that point (it's incredibly rare for VNs to honestly change around that much - so if it's boring I wouldn't be reading it in the first place); instead, it's just that I'm not in the mood for that sort of thing at the moment.

So I read something else and come back to it later

Really? Hahaha I so fucking hate people that take on a shit ton of projects. You don't do shit like that. First you go through the game and see how it is. To size it up. THEN you translate secretly for a while. Maybe release a patch at 35-50 percent.

Although, my thoughts of fan translation is kind of negative now since I've gone freelance. I would rather people didn't fan translate shit. Mainly because they're taking my jobs.

Like any story, there are some moments where the action, sex, or drama lags but in general I'm not particularly bored by VNs. I almost always skip male vocal monologue but I usually listen to the girls speak.

And this is why I hate a lot of the groups out there. They don't last and they just shut down. Going underground and then coming out of no where is the best, but then I think everyone would be worried they're all translating the same game if the go underground without saying what they're working on.

Dude, I'm just stating how I feel as a freelance translator and what I've read from other fan translators. You shouldn’t announce a translation project with the motivation of learning how to translate. My point is that it’s very easy to gain experience without getting people’s hopes up with a formal announcement. By prematurely announcing a project, you’re only setting the stage for potential disappointment and frustration if you fail to see it through. It’s important to have the experience before you begin. You have to be sure that you’re capable of handling everything the game will require.

If what I said sounded cool. I'm basically just stating from this great article.

I am working on a manga right now. Or rather I got a job offer. They said they were going to send me the pages but they've been rather slows, and they e-mail at odd hours.

Ultimately I want to do translation, but I really should look for a in house company. I live in such a shitty area though with no interest in Japanese translation.

I stopped reading Flyable Heart about an hour in because it didn't grab my attention at all. It's really rare for me to play an eroge that I find boring though. Maybe I'm just lucky. Even when I do I never skip through parts; either I stop reading completely or force myself to read all of it.

Man, I applaud you for actually DOING something. Don't waste your time with the hate in this thread.

Asukimi has a good common route that builds up the story and characters.

Flyable Heart's common isn't as good, but there are a lot of hilarious moments. Characters play off each other really well.

In both games, we see the storyline start diverging before the 'common' route officially ends.

I typically skip a lot in VNs, but then a lot of the text is totally fucking superfluous anyway. Seriously, I haven't played one VN which hasn't got a thousand phrases that just aren't necessary.
"I went to bed."
"...the bed was soft... it reminded me of the ocean..."
"perhaps the ocean is just like being in love... it moves around from one place to the other, never ending, but always coming back to the same place..."
"maybe I'll take her to the ocean one day..."

You can do a lot more with a lot fewer words. CARNIVAL and Konata Yori Kanata Made are good examples of concisely-written stories - it's actually quite refreshing to read stuff like that occasionally. Slice of life is not necessary for character development- it can help but you can do without it.

That was my point. Also, I get the feeling that it's also a cost issue, so they can string the story out longer so it counts as a 'full story'. Just imagine how short Heaven's Feel would have been with the excess lines cut.

Saya no Uta is a good example of a more rounded story though.

Ever since I first started getting into video games, I've been an insane completist. I just cannot put a title down until I've done everything that can possibly be done in it. There are some ooolld games that I'm STILL not done with because I have a side quest or whatever shit remaining - still haven't gotten Tidus's ultimate weapon in FFX or unlocked those last Aruruw CGs in Utawarerumono. Feel free to laugh now.

Hence not only do I read everything in the game as I go along, I play through it until I've made every choice and uncovered every possible bit of text that I can. Obsessive? Perhaps, but I feel it contributes to my enjoyment of a game. It sure as hell raises replay value, too.

This is why I love games that have a completion percentage reader in them somewhere, like Remember11 and Caucasus. It's also one of the two big reasons why I don't do MMORPGs - it's impossible to ever do and see everything. Other reason is the massive time commitment.
