I'm slightly curious if mangagamer is going to list their top ten best sellers this year. While they've never failed to do it before, the usual blog tag they use for such things (A Look Back at ....) has already been used with no such ranking for their current promotion. There's also the fact that such a list, if they were to include third parties, would likely have several third party titles pushing out their own. It'd be kind of a shame if this is the year it ends.

As always, this tracker is powered by anonymous like you, so post order numbers if you got em'

Also, I wish MG would allow 3 picks from current partners and 3 picks from new partners, because it's possible MG can't partner with those new companies for whatever reason.

>>14515276
The survey was answered by a bunch of retards from god knows where (probably tumblr and or reddit) and top answers were for VNs that were already released from other publishers or something almost impossible like F/SN.

Don't forget the new shit on the block: AJTilley!

MG promised a free Steam key for eden*, which likely lured in Steam users. And at least a few of the major news sites had articles about the survey. Add in social media and fandoms into the mix and you have a recipe for casuals.

A good vn doesn't need cute 2d girls, I guess kanon counts but I read that game for the atmosphere and the odd feeling in the world that intraps you.

I stopped coming to /jp/ since its lost its soul a while ago. the board is under control from total chaos like it was after the great meido fell but sadly the board is boring now without no fun off topics. just my feeling though on the board itsself. still need to catch up on the vn world from time to time.

I really don't get why you always come back here. It seems like you don't even like this niche for the most part and if you are happy reading books why do you continue to pester us? There are enough great books to fill the rest of your life with great stories, so why do you search here? It's not like any of these big vns are the greatest thing ever. You have a good chance to find something you like even better in conventional books so why are you here? You aren't missing anything by not reading the next big vn. Just leave and never come back, please.

Also, although I asked questions I should explain that they are rhetorical questions. I don't want you to answer them or to explain yourself . Whenever you post, you end up repeating everything you have said in every post before and that is annoying as fuck.

FUCK OFF

Thank you.

No I just moved on to books because I have done everything there ever was Japanese wise ( from 70s anime to when anime got bad and manga, vns). I moved on but the days were I first got on /jp/ back in 2009 never will leave me. they were fun times with people just like me. I come back here to catch up on the vn world. I know there are vns that are actually good left untranslated and I come back after maybe a year or two too see how its going.

>>14516076
You should stop judging games via exhentai galleries.
Story to sex ratio there is closer to moege than nukige, and it works as just some soft rabucome with fetish heroines.
>meh one at that, not sure why'd anyone want it
Mazobutas like you cannot understand proper humor, it seems.
>>
>>14516088
I'm judging games by the text I read, and Ponkotsu Akuma is specifically designed around sex like all nukige are. Some pointless and boring bloat to needlessly stretch the "story" out doesn't change that fact.

It's also listed under nukige in erogamescape. In any case, I wouldn't recommend it either for porn or, god forbid, "story".

I really fucking hate those lying assholes. It'd be one thing if they were actually funding localizations, but they're not. They're just trying to squeeze as much money out of loaded ignorant idiots as they can.
>>
>>14516464
There's nothing wrong with maximizing profits from your commercial products.
Not their fault that market is full of pirating bastarts who aren't going to pay for game unless game is held hostage.
>>
>>14516599
There is when you're lying about it.
>>
>>14516601
No, they are not. Funding localization is not limited to just translating game. It also includes paying license fee, paying people who did negotiations, paying translators and so on.
Just because work is done in advance doesn't mean it should be released for free or cost less than it would if it would be done in proper order.
>>
>>14516614
Hi Dovac. Maybe you should go read the Kickstarter terms and conditions page again before throwing another temper tantrum about being persecuted and ragequitting all social media for the fifth time.
>>
>>14516620
Maybe its you who should read KS ToS. People tried complaining about dovac's projects, and KS staff found no violations of ToS.
>>
>>14516620
Oh boy, it's this retard again who thinks commercial projects aren't allowed on KS.
>>
>>14516642
And I can find copyrighted material on Youtube, which their ToS strictly forbids. That doesn't mean it's not against their ToS. It means their enforcement policy is lax.

>>14516645
Yeah, just because it's explicitly stated to be for non-commercial use in the terms of service, that doesn't mean it's for non-commercial use, right? But then again, you don't actually know what commercial use is. KS doesn't exist to recoup sunk costs. In fact, that's why the ToS specifically says that it's to create something new, not order something that already exists.
>>
>>14516675
That's because copyright violations are only removed when the original creator complains about it, or they set up automatic content detection.

Please tell me how any of the big $100k+ hardware or video game Kickstarters are allowed when they're clearly commercial ventures?

Also, please tell me how you expect to prove that their KS was done after they finished their localization work and solely to recoup those costs. Or are you about to argue that translating a game isn't creating something new and thus translation projects don't belong to KS? Sounds like something you should bring up to KS and report them for, if you really think it's against their rules.

That -1k pullout was a pretty big blow to the campaign's pace. I don't think it's doomed yet, but they really need to break the halfway point before the end of the month or things are going to start looking dicey.
>>
Mikandi seems pretty apt to come shill their kickstarter whereever it's spoken about. I'm kind of tempted to go twit them a link to vntls and see what would happen.
>>
>>14516690
Sure. The projects need funding to exist and be brought to completion. That is the non-commercial part, and why excess funding is expected to go into stretch goals to provide extra work and services, not straight into the makers pockets. Once the project is complete, they are free to use it for whatever commercial purpose they want.

And why would anybody have to prove what they themselves are claiming? They've already said the localization work is done. Even if that's not true, then they're lying about that, and ergo, still fucking liars.

it's sad that right now the worst part of being eop isn't the fact that you have to rely on autists to translate games for you, but the fact that you can't even be sure that it's an actual autist doing the translation and not some retard with babelfish.

Buying something from MG was quite a hassle because of my CC company. They flagged it as suspicious and locked my card down. They claimed they texted me for approval, but didn't have my mobile number on file at the time. I got a call from them this morning to approve the transaction, which I did. I called them back later to make sure everything was okay and they told me my card was still locked down and once it lifted I'd need to redo the transaction. They won't approve international transactions as a rule, but they put a note on my account that MG's payment processor is supposed to be allowed. I hope my next purchase isn't this much of a headache. I might have to call my CC company in advance every time I make a purchase to make sure it goes through.

They've run into issues with the voices and gave no timeframe for when they'll be patched in. The voices were a big part of the KS, so this is pretty embarrassing.

Why would SP do an any work? They are getting money from idiots who keep funding them regardless of the actual quality when the product is released. They're nicenice when begging for money but once funding is reached, they don't give a shit. Everytime there is a problem, just blame the devs. It's not as if the devs know any English so EOPs have to rely on SP's word.

How the fuck did they even 'accidentally' think all the voicing was done, included in the game, and being uploaded when apparently, the voicing hadn't even been recorded at that point?
>>
>>14518049
And the voice work that is in the game is of poor quality and often sounds like it was done on $5 mics. And none of the audio is normalized so every character speaks at a different volume.

I want the end result of this to be Dovac having to record every character's voice himself, Chaos Wars style.

this has the translator said anything. hes really fucking close.

It's a Fuwalation with a grammatical error on the screenshot they used to announce it. And here's how a couple of their literally SEVEN 'translators' joined.

>may i ask? which part of work that does by the "translator" ?
>actually i am a bit interested to help, but i have no idea how to do it. if i just need to translate a text to text (not extract it from game file and change it as a patch file, or anything that recuired an advanced programing skills) maybe i can help, since i have some free time on my hands.
>well, i am not a native english speaker..... so maybe i will make a grammar error here and there. but if you dont mind, maybe i can help.

He was told not to worry about not knowing English. For translating a game into English.

But don't worry, because they don't know Japanese either.

>Hi, may I know do you guys still need translation help? I'm still in my first year for Japanese but this may be a good opportunity to improve my language.
>>
>>14518917
I think it's really unfair that Fuwa has cornered the market on fuwalations. We should get the struggling students of /jp/ to come together and translate something for shits and giggles.

It's stuck in editing and hacking.

You can play the 60% partial if you're impatient. I enjoyed that portion tremendously and it lived up to the hype.
>>
>>14518949
If it has a complex story like the infinity series i will like it, which i hear it does. (remember 11 which had older characters and no annoying teenager chicken sandwiches was the masterpiece , never 7 was a beta version of it I felt) I/0 was so complex it was in the "ok its really good but what was this guy on".
I/0 was also fucking depression, not that it had in your face sad moments, it just had that gloomy atmosphere which is ten times worse.
>>
>>14518959
Why would I do that, Also ive seen the translator been in /vn/ general on /vg/ like 2 years ago. and it was like fucking 98% edited then.
he should just fucking finish it.
>>14518954
Whats Noble works about? is it a story based game and complex?
>>
Does subahibi have a female only main character perspective, or does it have a male main character too. Also it sounds up my ally, seems like a complex good story based game. How long is it? Is not like fucking 10 hours right? cant be after how long its taking.

>>14518971
it was 98% edited through the first pass.
Which was very light.

The second pass required a shitload of changes to make the reading a lot better so the editor killed himself.

Is what everybody on jp wants but, the truth is he got lazy and is now working on something else for money.


Noble works has cute girls. So its already 9/10.

Oh its like 30-50 hrs never mind. girl protags are usually boring in vns sadly because they take on the slow as fuck theme, drinking tea and eating cookies and shit.

Im talking about anime/vn female protags, they are just fucking boring every time. and then you have to sit through the slow ass paced theme and whatever you get with a female anime girl.
While males seem to have a lot of different personalities. I will agree the "white knight" ones are the worst. but we do get some good ones. key protags are fun and very human and nitroplus have a shitton of good ones.

I wish he was a joke. I really do.

Good times. I remember the poor souls that tried to help and correct it, and the main fuwalator always reverted changes because the words became something that wasn't in his electronic dictionary.
