Chara is offering to make the LOVE of your life real!

He offers to make your ideal 10/10 imouto real. After accepting Chara's offer, the imouto you wished for will be sitting on top of you when you wake up the next day.

She will unconditionally be infatuated with you. You have the option to have sex with her if you want to. You can also choose if she can get pregnant or not.

However, in 10 years Chara will collect his debt.

10 years after accepting Chara's offer, he will show up at wherever you are living and inform you that your time is up. He will then destroy the universe. There is no way to stop him from destroying the universe unless you kill yourself and the imouto you wished for before 5 years have passed after accepting Chara's offer. Your imouto has no knowledge of the deal you made with Chara.

Do you accept his offer?

Are you aware if the translations were in regards to important plot details, or just some of the jokes? I'm pretty anal about typos and I didn't notice any during my run of it.

>>148178153

I may have to play G-Senjou again, as I haven't in at least two or so years. I was recommended Sharin no Kuni because it was by the same author, something that made itself very readily apparent early on in the plot. G-Senjou seemed to have left more of an impression on me in terms of plot and characters, however.

>Notes

Above all, please be aware that our localization is written in American English. If you are not a native speaker of this particular dialect, you may find the bits of slang and turns of phrase particular to the United States that we have employed here and there to be quite strange. We would like to ask that you refrain from reporting anything along these lines as an error. Consult Wiktionary, Google, Wikipedia, or Urban Dictionary if you really cannot figure out a particular phrase.
The Monty Python reference was originally a reference to Atashin'chi. Since Atashin'chi is unfamiliar to westerners, we went with something that was.
There are a few lines of dialogue and narrative lifted from the localized scripts of various JRPGs - when appropriate, of course. Try to see how many you can spot.
Japanese name order has been preserved. Some Japanese terminology persists, such as "nabe"; if you find yourself unfamiliar with a Japanese term, please look it up on Google or Wikipedia. And, yes, "towelket" falls under this category.
If you come across netspeak in the translation, rest assured that an equivalent Japanese term was used in the original.
Unfortunately, we had to remove Natsumi's catchphrase, "domodomo." It simply didn't work in English. Please keep her moeness in mind while playing.
Yes, we know that there's supposed to be a lisp in Touka's catchphrase. And yes, we know that there's a more natural translation for "agaru." There are reasons why they are what they are in our localization.
If you encounter a typo, misspelling, or grammatical oddity, report it here. Thanks.

At least she got a scene. I still feel cheated that old man-chan didn't get a route. It would've been great. You could've gone underwear shopping together, and perved on girls together, and then gone to the beach and seen everyone in bikinis, and then she realizes that she doesn't want to see you with other girls anymore and there's great sex for the rest of the route.

go into PE's graphical settings and change scaling method or smth. i believe the second highest and highest "software" settings should make it look quite sharp and neat. not really pixel-y.

according to Haro they still have their Moonstone partnership, they haven't broken up. Moonstone is just going ahead and putting more titles on their own.

if MG gets Sakura no Mori i can see it being very popular with the West.

I completed a cheerful and happy title, and it made me feel like my life is empty and lonely. That was the 1st time I felt depression.

Then I played trough a few more titles, and it picked me right back up.

the market is oversaturated with generic moege which have nothing to offer besides cute girls

this is why I like Alcot's moege, their scenarios are much more interesting than your usual moege

>I can`t even remember what I had for dinner two days ago

That's because what you had for dinner two days ago wasn't important, so you forgot about it. With enough exposure, you'll be able to remember Japanese terms quite easily.

For example, even though I haven't played PoE for two months, I can name every map (the grey squares) in this screenshot despite never actively putting effort into memorizing their names. I haven't even entered some of the maps in the screenshot since I mainly farmed Uber Atziri (an endgame boss).

Pretty much this. I've forgotten about half the italian(sans history, got that down pat) I learned last year, cannot remember 90% of geometry, but I've got an insane amount of US history down and about 80% of all the data of a wiki in my head.

Its pretty much just how much you give a shit about it when you run over it.

The waiting period is probably for all of your benefit honestly, the thing about fan TL (and I say this as someone thoroughly involved with them) is that the TL process is usually pretty rough without as much oversight and thoroughness as an official company likely gives. If those 6 months involve QC of the script you're gonna end up with a much better product, I promise.

They have decent editing sometimes. At least most of their stuff reads OK. Accuracy is another subject altogether, stuff like the Nekopara translation for example is terribly inaccurate at times.

They are pretty inconsistent about this though.

I think they have hired more TLs since Nekopara at least, I wonder if there was any reason Nekopara vol 1 turned out the way it did

The fandisk provided the romantic development that was missing from the main game. The ending of the original route was a bit of an asspull, which the fandisk fixed. However, it was hard to care about Yume's poor health when you knew from the ending of her route in the main game that she would survive, though. Also, it's not like they're going to randomly kill her like minori would.

>le ignore them to make them go away meme
You're stupid. A majority of their profits are made not from core VN titles, but from meme shit like Nekopara and Sakura games. The majority of the people who purchase those don't give a shit about visual novels and don't follow SP at all, they likely aren't even aware of who SP are. Ignoring SP will allow things to continue as they are. The steady build up of hate over SP in recent memory (most notably the past year or so) has led them to at least acknowledge that they have a significant PR issue (though since Dovac is a child he doesn't respond to this well). At the very least, it might incentivize them to change if enough hate is mongered. But that's fairly idealistic. Still, since they want to continue to sell games like Baldr that appeal to the core VN fanbase and not the memebase, then they will have to consider the former audience, especially since the later isn't going to drop 40$+ on titles.
