It's almost a year since we've been baited into believing subahibi was coming out soon
Fuck tlwiki,
>>15042415
The translation project was dropped after the 80% patch. People are dumb.
>>15042525
The translation was continued after the unedited low quality 80% patch and was eventually sold to KeroQ/Makura for an official release in the future.
If you don't want to wait, learn Japanese. It's really that simple. Complaining about waiting won't make it come out any faster.
>>15042415
I'm still upset.
Not because I feel particularly tricked about it, as I wasn't anticipating anything good to begin with, but because /jp/ was right.
I hate that.

Apparently there was a lot of drama with JAST and Flowers last month that I missed out on. Can someone bring me up to speed?
http://store.steampowered.com/app/446250/
Silverio Vendetta released on Steam.
>>15044546
Jast released the flowers demo with a laughably bad translation.
There are a number of people on twitter who really like flowers who basically roasted JAST over the coals for it.
Peter Payne started taking this personally and started tweeting stuff like "It's just an alpha version don't worry" and "Hey, if you have suggestions for translation improvements, email me"
After a couple of days, Jast announced that they would be delaying flowers and bringing on new translators.
That about sums it up.
Will Dooddles be alright? You guys will buy his games right?
>>15046178
If he works on something worth playing, sure.
>>15046178
He doesn't work on stuff I'd willingly pay money for, so no.
>>15045119
How the fuck did they manage that when they've been holding onto it for so long? What were they doing with all that time?
That's especially strange since I usually hear good things about JAST translations (haven't played any since they barely release anything and most of it isn't interesting). I wonder what them fucking up for once is indicative of. Makoto got fired?
>>15046178
You guys know what this means, right? He's doing this because he knows needs more free time in order to work on a very big game. In other words, Dies Irae.
>>15046351
He seems to be pretty busy with porting Grisaia to Vita. His twitter is full of stuff about porting the engine.
>>15046340
The demo's translation was horrific. Who knows what the people at JAST were smoking
https://storify.com/KurosakaRyuuko/flowers-demo-translation
>>15046361
Seems like a fools errand. Yes, a handheld is exactly what I want to play a 3+ mb VN on.
>>15046528
Why not? A handheld is exactly the ideal place to play long games and it's comfy for reading while laying in bed, etc.
>>15046528
I mean, there wouldn't have been a Vita port in the first place if there wasn't interest. While I personally wouldn't play a VN on Vita, I think it's better suited for it than a few genres because it's easy to pick up and put down, much like an actual book. Something like, say, a dungeon crawler where you might go a while between save points, is less appealing for portable play. Yeah, I know there's sleep mode, but battery life is limited.
>>15046546
When the Vita runs out of battery, it goes into deep sleep mode and doesn't lose progress of your game for probably months.
>>15046351
But wait, it doesn't stop here. He posted it on 08.04.2016. Let's add single digits there:

"Shocking" news"
>>15047013
shocking = prob something to do with gakthun.
>>15047013
Probably Steam related news, as it's doubtful they would announce a new title or hard copy outside of a convention.
>>15047303
>>15047336
Have to wonder how much they could get away with if they put Gakthun on Steam, considering the CGs themselves are non explicit and Kouryuu has been teasing that they should be able to do only minimum censoring for Bokuten.
>>15047358
Gahkthun's CG already don't depict genitals, but the act of sex is somewhat explicit in the text. Not sure it can go on Steam.
>>15047303
Fandisc confirmed.
>>15047364
It can surely go on Steam, the only question is how much needs to be cut for Steam to approve it. The lack of explicit CGs probably means few if any CGs need to be cut, but they likely would need to tone down the text some.
>>15046552
>killing R07's hype when he was a rising star in the eroge industry
Ryukishi never did eroge though. His works are about story, not porn.
>>15047368
If it was the fandisc, they wouldn't announce it until an upcoming convention.
>>15047379
There is a convention next week though.

Shocking, isn't it? I bet you're surprised.
>>15047707
Who cares? Anyone who seriously loves that game will play the version that's already out instead of waiting for some lame sterilized remake.
I was just thinking, why do people care so much about porn in VNs when their mind exists? Coming up with a well written story takes talent, but anyone can make good porn, and the best part is that you can tailor it to your specific tastes. Make your porn yourself and let the writers focus on writing. All you need to do is imagine it.
>>15048000
Who the fuck uses their imagination to jack off in this century?

>>15048148
Well done, you beat me to it
>>15048000
Even if you don't care about the porn, Japanese made for console all ages versions (a main source of Steam all ages titles) are often censored beyond just the porn.
>>15048148
>>15048184
It's funny that I mentioned why story is a different matter specifically to cut off posts like this and you retards went ahead and made the post anyway. I swear this thread has some of the worst posters on the site.
>>15048199
My point isn't about censored VNs but is about how ero is worthless. I think censoring is a bad thing but I think it's good that VNs are moving away from putting sex scenes in the original material.
>>15048461

You can't cut off anything when your original premise is based off of idiotic assumptions. And apparently you can't even realize that even after people expose them.
>>15048467
I love how awkwardly you have to edit it. You can't make it sound right and just end up looking like an idiot.
>>15048497
There was nothing to expose, as indicated by the completely illogical responses. You think you're extremely clever but you haven't actually made any intelligent point. You're just a pretentious snob who won't accept any opinions that aren't his own.
In case you guys have questions about VN translations just go to facebook and you'll have experts commenting on it.

>>15048634
That's Rance X.
>>15048597
It's not MG who's delaying Himawari release.
If people aren't playing Tokyo Babel because they feel it's pretty much filled with battles, they really don't know what they're losing. The world is really well fleshed out.
About Himawari, I'm not sure if one should expect it to be such a big success. It's true that Himawari is pretty damn good but unfortunately, simply being good isn't enough may not be enough.
>>15048611
>physical edition of Euphoria.
Could be, euphoria was said to have done better than expected. Do people really want physical though? I'd rather nobody knew I actually paid money for this
>>15048611
It is doubtful to be Euphoria, because they have been saving hard copy announcements for conventions.
>>15048703
It's possible they want to be out there selling Euphoria's hard copy at the next convention if they expect it to do well.
>>15048728
Then they would have announced it with the Free Friends hard copy 2 weeks ago, which they have slated to come out at the next convention. A hard copy isn't going to be an unplanned announcement that they announce between conventions.
>>15048780
>Then they would have announced it with the Free Friends hard copy 2 weeks ago
They weren't sure it was going to happen 2 weeks ago, they've only finalised it recently.
Anyone know how to open two instances of the subahibi exe?
I want to read the Japanese and English versions side by side.
>>15048792

It's funny that MangaGamer's curator page hasn't recommended something by "Our friends at Sekai Project" since 2014. Maybe Dovac shouldn't have been such a dickweed. You can't unburn bridges, jackass.

Fruitbat Factory is localising Rewrite so this is the version they'll likely acquire.
Question is, will we finally get the full version of Akane's route?
>>15049871
>Fruitbat Factory
Fuck these assholes they are even worse than dovac
>>15049871
"likely" probably not
They'll just say something like "We were already started working on the title when Rewrite+ was announced so we won't be working on the new version" just like they did for Eiyuu Senki's Vita version.
>>15051117
Frontwing and Fruitbat Factory are likely to be competing for worse localization company going forward, unless Moenovel comes back.
>>15046528
Playing VNs on portable is basically the most comfortable you can, not only because you can do it on a commute but you can just lay in bed and read hours on end while easily adjusting your body to stay comfortable. I don't mean ready VNs on portable but when I get the chance I always do.
This is the writer for maitetsu Twitter. https://twitter.com/sin_kou_hyou/status/718915942336466944 should educate him just like how we did for chuablesoft president on how bad sekai is.

Maybe VN companies need to market to the Chinese.
>>15054457

>>15048634
I never noticed that orb on the right when I played the game.
>>15053844
now is this real? or are we gonna have another google drive crash?
>>15053844
Geh, another tl machine translation then.
>>15054481
>actually having a fantl scene.
Imagine if every translator used machine translation, every translator was from Fuwanovel and every translator rushed their barely comprehensible patches out a month after the games released without any editing.
That's the Chinese fantl scene. There is no translation in the English scene, not even G.H. Shaft's Cross Channel or Moenovel's IMHHW that is worse than the average Chinese translation patch.
>>15054597
Why is this automatically assume when you find out it's a guy from reddit?
Judging from the video, it wasn't a machine translation.
>>15054614
Yeah but at least they have like 20x the VNs we have translated.
And is it really that bad? Japanese is way easier to learn for Chinese since they already know all the symbols and there's many shared concepts. There's just a bigger userbase in general.
>>15054641
>Japanese is way easier to learn for Chinese since they already know all the symbols and there's many shared concepts.
Yeah but just because they both use kanji doesn't change the fact that the languages are still nothing alike.
Koreans have it easier for learning Japanese than anyone else because the grammar structures of both languages are nigh identical.
If chinks could easily learn Japanese, there wouldn't be so many shitty machine TL patches in the first place, they'd just read the VNs in Japanese. In China, they sell Japanese console games as "international versions" in English because English is easier for chinks than Japanese, especially in places like Hong Kong where English is ubiquitous.
>>15054641
And you've got all VNs translated if you use Atlas.
>>15054614
That's interesting to hear. The Chinese are basically the only ones left in the jdrama fantl scene, and they even transcribe dialog when there is no access to closed captions. The only ones left for the west are boyband fangirls on their livejournals and southeast asians translating through thai or indonesian into english.
>>15054641
>Yeah but at least they have like 20x the VNs we have translated.

They're in the top 50 on VNDB, retard
>>15055270
>>15055116
There's a difference between being fine with a mediocre translation and committing years to learning another language. Telling people to "just learn Japanese" isn't really a feasible solution. Not more than a low percentage of the fandom is going to be willing to commit to that.
>>15055273
Oh, VNDB, the promised lands where English readers vote for untraslated eroge based on their HCG sets or on what memesters told them is good and they should want translated.
If you at least said they're in EGS top rrankings, it would be plausible, but you probably can't even access EGS.
