Pretty sad. Stop masturbating over fictional anime girls for a second and pick up a book you loser.
>>137168556
I mean I've read the book, but I don't get any humor.
why is 3DPD so ugly

STEINS;GATE 0 FAN TRANSLATED ON PC WHAT THE FUCK I'M PLAYING IT RIGHT NOW, HOW IS THIS NOT A JOKE?
This has to be a joke. I'm waiting to be rickrolled or something at the end of Chapter 1

How.
I'm not even fucking Joking, Steiner retweeted it.
>>137173023
Dunno yet I'm still on Chapter 1. I heard someone's got to Chapter 2 and it's still legit though.
>>137173226
It's an April fools joke, yes the beginning is legit but something will pop up on the screen soon.
>>137173226
Wait so are we actually getting zero at some point? I never looked into it.
>>137172617
Isn't this the guy that lied about translating something for like a year?
>>137173793
PC release in June. Translation not announced, but likely.
>>137172178

To be fair, they get an A* for effort.

How long is it?
But wait there's more. Pic related.
>>137174767
Just the rooftop scene.
>>137174070
Wait really? like school days or something?
>>137175016
They're talking about the real port presumably, but the guy who made this is legit so who knows, we may get a real translation soon.
>>137175016
So, do people think JAST will license it? And how long will it take them to translate and release?
>>137175410
No one can tell unfortunately.
>>137175410
It's a really hyped title that will bring in a lot of sales guaranteed, so let's hope their business guy isn't stupid and it should be here pretty quickly.
Just finished Ever17 -The Out of Infinity- its so good and mindblowing
>>137175410
I'm sure they'll put a priority on it. So three years.
>>137175571
そ う だ ね
>>137173858
then how did this translation happen, this is like a beta?
>>137175016
oh shit.
>>137175801
It was released in Japanese and some guy did it real quick since it's short.
>>137175410
Is it actually good or just as good? , how long is it?

If you have seen the anime it is basically that but better and in more depth. If you haven't it is worth a pirate at least. Is around 35 hours long.

It takes like one day. I'm an EOP otherwise too.
It's "soudane" - your extensive anime romaji knowledge should be enough to know what it means.

So is the game not selling on steam? Its not even on releases.. is it just not updated? I mean clannad broke through the top 5. I hope root double can get up there.
>>137185239
Fuck off reddit
From tiltanon, with love
Is kamidori good for the h scenes or for gameplay?
>>137175571
Read the others. Never 7, remember 11, I/O, they are all really good. My fav is remember 11, you have to figure it out yourself. hope root double is a bit like that. I/O is just as good , it has a very depressing theme and message.
>>137185239
<wanting localizations to succeed
>>137185597
Both.
Though it's about 10-20 hours before the first H-scene if you don't skip anything and grind a bit.

>>137185573

>>137185573
Thank you very much
Just started Yume Miru Kusuri, what am I in for?
>>137185791
moe
>>137185597
I didn't really like the H scenes. Gameplay is fantastic though it you like round based dungeon crawlers

nothing if you keep posting instead of reading

>>137185462
What?
>>137185735
Well root double at least earns it, not only is the writer a smart guy the translators have good taste.
Its odd that steam is not even mentioning it yet.
>>137185979
Shit I mean that its not even mentioning babel in releases.
>>137185735
That's good, I don't really mind having to wait for H scenes as long as the gameplay is good. Those few hours will pass by in no time. Thanks anon.
>>137185878
Why didn't you like them?
>>137185868

You should read Yume Nikki instead.

A fairly average but decently enjoyable VN that does nothing special but at the same time nothing poorly either.
So... anyone gonna make a torrent.
>>137185901

Why isn't it on codex's website? I think it's legit but still is weird.

Don't expect one till saturday
>>137186259
Not a big fan of the designs or the voice acting and they kinda felt cheap. To be fair I was coming from a yuzusoft game, so that might be why.
Can I skip Muv Luv Extra and just read Alternative? This slice of life sucks ass.
>>137185901
Sketchy
>>137187681
Just skip the whole vn... Seriously.
>>137187681
If you don't like the characters you won't like the VN, it's just contrived drama revolving around flat characters. There's also tons of filler content and it tops it all off with a terrible ending.
5/10 VN.
>>137187681
Just skip straight to SM

Is it worth playing Never7? Also I heard Ever17 was the best and watching the other series won't have much impact, maybe I would have watch the other first.

>>137190373
>2069x1262
>>137190118
What, ever 17 is good and all but that doesn't mean its the best or not because they all do different things and have different stories. Yeah never 7 is needed it,explains stuff and has cool characters and its the beginning of its universe . Remember 11 and I/O are more refined and do things a lot better. R11 has really cool characters in a odd place/theme along with the best art of the series. What the fuck happened to that artist, even RD doesn't have as good of art.
I/O is not like the others, its a bit more complex and sad.

No john you are the demons

Is that a question or not, you fucking retard?
>>137191230
The protagonist is in an open marriage when suddenly his wife's son goes missing and he has to go on a quest to save him.
In the end he finds out thatthe kid he's searching for isn't actually even his wife's son but her youngest boyfriend.

How did you find the pacing and slice of life in ever17? I found it hard to get through as it was so boring like kick the can, but it was worth it in the end for coco's route.
>>137193198
It was bad, thats why the writers stopped doing it completely after it. The sol is the main bad part of the game.
>>137192569
'Twas was merely a ruse, ye gnashgab!
>>137191941
So you can watch our rotten western civilization fall the exact way the western romans did about 1500 years ago, the ensuing chaos, violence and degeneration that always follow will be quite a spectacular mass social and historical experiment on unprecedented up to now scale.Excited as fuark tbqh famalams.
>>137193405
Hows the pacing in Remember11 and Never7?
>>137193413
Silence thyself fool and leave this place.
>>137193584
Never 7 is before 17 but it has college kids so its a bit better.
Remember 11 has the best pacing, really good no stops. but remember 11 is a hard game too understand unless you pay attention. its cool if you look up what actually happened after it. theres a whole timeline for this series.
I/O is a different type of game yet I actually don't remember it having any real SOL at all even though it was pretty dam long.
All in all read all the infinity games because they are basically some of the best things translated or just in general high in actual plot.
>>137194004
I already absquatuelated with him awhile ago.
Since i'm about to read babel, any walk through for the routes? there's 2 routes then a 3rd final? does the game have choices or not?
>>137195151
For fucks sake man. It's not fucking YU-NO, do it blind.
>>137195151
>does the game have choices
Yes
I'm really dirty I play both japanese and english VNs and enjoy them both
>>137195436
>>137195391
I still need a guide, It would just be annoying.
>>137195391
Please no bully.
I get enough of that from my wife's son.
>>137195151
you should always do the initial playtrough blind. In my opinion it makes it more interesting and fun that way. Only after you complete it once should you use a guide if necessary.
>>137195730
cuck off
>>137195823
I like actually playing it in order, the final route only unlocks after the other two anyway.
>>137195947

>>137196452
why don't you buy it if you want it?
>>137196723
I don't want it though.
>>137196879
then why do you want to know if anyone has a download link for it?
>>137196879
then why do you care if there is a torrent of it yet?
>>137196945

>>137197223

>>137197106
I want to try the whole game.
>>137197223
steal a steam card then
>>137197223
Get out kid.
>>137197338
So it's okay to steal from someone to get a steam card, but not to pirate the game?
>>137197320
that's not trying, that's just playing
if you want to play the whole game, then you want it
>>137197492
I want it but I don't need it.
So I won't buy it.
>>137197428
I don't care about the game seller, but I care about MG staying profitable. So, yeah, it is.

I want MG to go bankrupt. Revenge for Rance
>>137197608
>>137197790
>Revenge for Rance
I don't remember that, what's the story? Is it because they licenced something from Alicesoft that's not Rance?
>>137197790
but its happening anon. Just give it time.
>>137197790
Not really their fault though.
>>137197851
Here's an analogy for you.
>Wanting Tokyo Babel = Wanting a girlfriend
>Wanting to play Tokyo Babel = Wanting to have sex
>Wanting to play Tokyo Babel but not wanting to own it = Wanting to have sex but not get attached to a girlfriend
>Playing the demo = Masturbating
>>137198124
the normalfaggest of all analogies
get out now
>>137197851
If it's not available for free I simply can't be bothered to buy and play it.
>>137198308
Then you don't want it. Play something else, case closed.
>>137198263
i know right
us 4channers are so craycray
>>137198427
I want it.
Just not enough to pay for it. It'll be uploaded sooner or later.
>>137198581
No you don't. Play something else.
>>137197657

Is there any chance Tokyo Baby won't be a major flop?
>>137198831
Shut up nerd.
>>137198831
No he can't. I can though.
This cool guy turn up in KNS2?
>>137197223
Not again
>>137197927
Kind of is.
>>137197859
In 3-4 years time sure
>>137197851
It's because Rance 5D was 100% translated and Rance VI was 89% translated (after 5 months translation) and they decided to hook up with Alicesoft and bring over a nukige instead
>>137198831
But I already did.
If you're going to use your trial saves with a steam copy they might not work
At least they didn't work for me.
If you load a save from the trial it will show the text for that scene but once you try to advance the text box will disappear.
If you load a save at a choice it will crash.
So you'll have to start from the beginning and skip to where you left off.
If I buy off mangagamer's site what shows up on the credit card bill
>>137199427
thats fine. Look at it this way, in those 3-4 years there will be plenty of releases to keep you busy, as the localization frequency is only increasing.
>>137199747
But in the next 3-4 years WW3 will begin
>>137199612
A: why do you care
B: Im pretty sure thats in their FAQ
see? what did i tell you people? not everyone here has credit cards you dodos
>>137197223
>>137199898
You must be over 18 to post on this site. Go back to Gaia, kid.
>>137199898
Remove ilegals
>>137199747
I don't want to read them. And most of them would have been localized independent of the decision to localize Haruka.
I've been grinding moonrunes since then anyway but still fuck Mangagamer.
>>137200002
Go to bed Trump.
>>137199978
>>137200002
I don't own a credit card, and I don't know when you'd actually need one.
Everything I want to buy online I can get using paypal, which is directly from my Chequing account.
What's the point of a credit card?
>>137199978
i left my gaia account since when i was 13, i had 4 bil there but i don't really care anymore
>>137200093
I like em. Once they start pumping out more moege and non nukige titles I'll love them.
>>137200151
they are handy to have on the side of a debit card. For example I just bought a 2.5k Bicycle that was on sale from its original 3k pricetag. My bank account is below that and to not miss the sale i put it on the CC. Once I get paid this weekend I will pay it off without any extra charges.
Also handy as fuck in emergencies.
>>137200151
If something costs $1000 but you only have $300 in your chequing account.
I don't have a credit card nor do I plan on getting one in the near future. Debit card is enough.
>>137200394
If I want something that costs $1000 and I have $300 then I don't need it.
I get bus passes, food, and rent. Those are about my expenses.
>>137200151
You can't buy from everywhere with Paypal.
>>137199198
No but his car does.
>>137200364
Good for you.
I on the other hand hate them and hope they go bankrupt
>>137200151
Then use a debit card?
>>137200551
The only thing I've not been able to pay for is Kickstarters
>>137200636
But aside your personal spite towards them, they are doing everything right to warrant continued business, unlike SP and JAST.
>>137200364
>2500 dollar bicycle
Damn son
>>137200840
Cycling is good times, and works wonders for my fat ass, so after spending years on lower end ones, I finally decided to go big.
>>137200807
But anon, they delayed or even killed the Rance release he was totally entitled to! Of course they deserve to go out of business for such a grievous and forgivable crime! Why, they should probably all be shot as well, it's only fair after the mild inconvenience they caused!
>>137200954
I just walk. I used to walk for 4 hours a day when I was in highchool. Then I became a neet and became fat.
>>137201156
yeah but walking gets boring fast, meanwhile I can hit 35 mph easy on this thing along some fun trails.
If a workout can be fun and enjoyable then its all the value. Great stress reliever too, but I guess that can also be said about going for a walk.
>>137200654
I do?
I'm not the same guy
>>137201432
then why the fuck did you reply?
>>137200807
So if they're doing everything right there shouldn't be any issues then?
So why are you telling people not to pirate it then?
>>137201136
It's more the fact that they kept on lying right until the very end. Don't tell people all the way until July that you're release a translation in a few months while mocking the rumor that you have Haruka and then go "fuck you buy Haruka in six months for a chance to get the game you actually want"
>>137201484
Because the guy was saying only kids don't use credit cards.
>>137201591
support the things you enjoy so that those things can keep happening?
>>137201591
That was the chick who supposedly translated them not MG that said that.
Hey guys, Root Double is coming out today!

Its alright the best for last I guess, ill finish babel before it comes out. babel seems okay, pretty interesting beginning so far. I just hope there is no SOL filler.
Also I will say babel being animated a bit more so than usual is pretty cool.
I forgot how adorable this ending was. Tsumugu too cute.

I saw that and assumed it was an april fool's joke. Though I do know that some games store assets at high resolution and downscale them in-game (HoshiMemo good example) so it would be cool if someone did such a thing.
Sumaga when?
