If Subahibi doesn't come out today I'm ending it
>>148264507
So Koiken Otome is getting sold off to SP just like I fucking said.
I'm done.
Xth for Moege is love.

Why is Romeo Tanaka considered to be such a great writer?
>>148265301
Because moogy said so
>>148265301
he talks about the difficulty of communicating with others and the desire to do so, a popular topic with weebs driven into solitude by their social anxiety and general autism

Educate yourself, EOP.
>>148264902
>13 years later
He is learning to draw I guess.
>>148265301
He's good when compared to other VN writers. As a writer he's ultimately below average.

I want to marry Aoko!!!!
>>148265704
Commie should feel ashamed. They ruined it. Nasu's prose was tarnished by their project! You only meant good herkz, I know but please step up
>>148266038
>You only meant good herkz
I dunno, he's kind of stupid for letting that project get as far as it did without going, "Uh, yeah, maybe this doesn't sound like the best English."
>>148266038
Herkz never means good, he's the devil incarnate.
>Anyway, the method I outlined that Romeo uses is balancing microcosm with macrocosm. In Japanese, he’ll use the shortest possible pitch perfect sentences to build poetic tempo, and then lay you with a good one by showing how the poetic movement links to a larger picture, usually a soliloquy or meditation on society, science or the world.
sugoi, romeo-san...
>>148265836
she's only into shotas
>>148265628
It's boring as shit, and as short as it is boring.
>>148266146
How to say a lot without saying anything: The post
Are Romeo's LNs good?
>>148266146
Example of such a masterfully crafted sentence that no in the world can replicate:
私はリンゴのこと好き。そうですね。
Kneel down before the supreme being of Romeos prose that none of you plebs will EVER understand.
>>148266146
What does that even mean? He writes a short sentence and the a long one afterwards. And that long sentence discusses an interesting topic.
Wow, what a technique.
>>148266334
Give her two ahoges and she's basically Naru Narusegawa. Ah, she was my first waifu, apart from the ones I watched on TV when little
>>148266516
Jintai is better than all of his eroge combined.
>>148266516
Jintai is probably the worst thing he's written
>>148266516
Jintai is the Malcolm in the 中庸 of romeo works.
>>148266661
>Prose somehow compensates for everything else being shit
Yeah, nah.
So I'm going through Clannad for the first time, completely blind.
What the HELL is with the eye placement on the characters? Seriously, it's *almost* fine for most of them, but everyone I've seen so far looks like they are Miis that a toddler decided to fuck up by moving the eyes.
Also, I want to pluck Furukawa's ahoge. The fact that there are two bothers me so much.
>>148267313
>>148267313
Pretty sure he's mocking that attitude. "I love apples. Yep."
>>148267313
>tfw the little EOP can't read superior moon runes so he can't make out the sarcasm
>>148266878
>>148267017

What about Aura? I saw the anime but it was shit, is the LN better?
>>148266661
>私はリンゴのこと好き。そうですね。
Sugoi.
>>148267519
But the movie was great, and obviously the source is better since you can actually read his prose there.
Romeo is probably the biggest hack in the industry.
>>148267398
>His autism gets triggered
Kek
ITS OUT
>moogy will never acknowledge you
How do I live with this feel bros?
>>148268456
Feels good.
>>148267754
Nah that's Uchikoshi
>>148268456
One day, for sure I also will discuss kamige and get praised by moogy-dono. And it feels bad, oh it hurts.
>>148268456
It's easy. Take an opinion he'll agree on and portray it in a way that makes others think it was a very personal experience to you. Like Kastel 1) muh adventures with stepladders and how they have something to do with saku uta
2) muh water leaking pipe and how it has something to do with subahibi
Make it sound artsy, make it sound personal. And at least beg for moogy's attention a few times so he recognizes your name when he orgasms from reading your create writing essay.
>>148268432
stop this
ITS SOLD
>>148269225
kek
I mean no one orgasms from reading literature, math equations or anything like that right?
>no hype for the new key VN that was just announced
>>148269694
>new key VN
>just announced
Huh?
>>148269694
https://vndb.org/v16510 wtf I didn't know about this one. And they are releasing it in english too, huh. Things sure have changed...
>>148268456
Ressha's dick must have been leaking with precum as soon as he read Moogy's response, that is if he didn't reach climax right away from. You can tell his hands were shaking just typing a simple thanks, lost for words at having finally achieved his life goal. Moogy's praise is what drove him to learn Japanese after all.
>>148269694
it was announced long ago and also delayed like twice already.
>>148270064
Oh, the one that was supposed to come out last year.

Can someone explain the best way to set up the text hooker from visual novels so it is comfy and shows furigana and approximate translation?
>>148270119
Why are VN readers so starved for attention and approval?
>>148270215
>every Key VN ever in a nutshell
>>148270119
Can't blame him. I unpacked my penis and immediately ejaculated, and the compliment wasn't even directed at me. I did however self insert into Ressha there for a second and technically became him. It felt quite exquisite.
>>148270363
You don't have to explain the joke.
>>148270334
>Why are moogyfags aka jops so starved for attention and approval
They know they learned a useless dead language so now they get excited at every percived sing that it was worth it
>>148270119
He's so humble. I'm sure he would be a bottom for moogy, I am damn sure I would. Hnnng I will experience that feeling someday too
>>148270119
>>148270379
i fucking hate you people
>>148270681
fuck you for unfollowing me cunt
>>148270516
I was actually going to say JOPs at first but I didn't want to sound rude. They truly seem to be constantly needy and seeking validation from one another.
What are some vns with hot drilljous?
I'm gonna sell my translation.
>>148264902
jesus spoiler that
>>148266431
I friggin hate people who say this. Everytime someone says something hard to understand over a long sentence some ignorant tool will just say "WOW THAT SAID NOTHING LMAO" even though it clearly did.
>>148275541
How to get mad and butthurt over nothing: The post
Only 2 more objectives to go, get hype fellow machine TL fans.

Where are you Lemnisca?

it may be time to become an JOP, whats the best path to learning japanese? willing to put in 1-2 hours a day
>>148278805
You can't learn Japanese
>>148278863
How did moogy do it?
>>148278863
then this is the end... farewell anime games, i will forever hold u in my heart

Did everybody suddenly get a life?
>>148283016
waiting for the next vn to come out.
Wew, this has been a pretty fun ride so far
Do the other routes actually explain the family background in depth? Is Subahibi going to end up like Rance 5d where it is translated/edited but never ever released?
>>148283449

>>148283449
>Do the other routes actually explain the family background in depth?
yeah, specifically Ryou's route. but Tane has flashbacks as well.
>>148283449
Subahibi is in editing hell just like Sumaga.
>>148284217
Subahibi is a dead game that will never see English release. Sumaga has a chance to release until JAST dissolves.
>>148284442
Glad to hear that Subahibi will remain Kamige longer
>>148264892
I thought you were joking.You weren't joking.
ITS FINALLY OUT
>>148285629
Well, you got me. I checked.
Reminder that Chusingura 46+1 devs are willingly releasing it on Steam stating that they won't ever release an H patch for it.

>>148285629
My dick is so big it is hard to keep it in. Gomen
>>148286075
Further evidence that japanese devs resent being forced to include porn for their Japanese audience and will happily remove it for the west and finally sell their desired product
>>148286075
no patch
no buy
I might nofap for a while, since im desentized and only the most extreme shit turns me on
>>148286268
There's no point in reading a moege if not for the porn.
>>148286379
kys blogger
>>148286424
C46+1 isnt moege so its ok
>>148286424
You're supposed to read moege for the moe. The porn is shit and can never compete with ero manga or pixiv anyway, so why bother
>>148286075
>that sperg out in the comments
>>148286940
Because you are gay.
>>148286940
Lots of moege have really good porn.
>>148287073
Steam discussions are absolutely full of gold like that. It's barely one step above youtube.
>Get your together steam is a gaming platform not a porn site you childish s
t. dovac's intended audience btw
>>148287073
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO *turns into super saiyan*
>>148286075
So why did they cut out the sprite in the text box? Strange thing to do.
>>148287609
No idea but I think it looks redundant and stupid, having the same face twice on the screen. I would understand it if it was used for characters that are off-screen.
>>148286075
The real crime here is that the translation sucks
>>148287852
>No idea but I think it looks redundant and stupid, having the same face twice on the screen.
It makes sense when you consider that it enables you to not have to look back up every time. I like it.
http://ask.fm/Good_Haro/answers/138157984616
Man, going official is a lot more work than I thought. Maybe you guys shouldn't be so hard on those who do. This looks tiresome.

>>148289980
>10 months ago
Thing is they seem to have no idea how the editing is going or any intent to actually push to get it done.
They just handed it to someone and haven't asked for it back for 3 years.
>>148289980
>10 fucking months ago
wtf Jast. I always say you guys have mad potential but you simply won't get your act together...

>>148292826
Uhhh, wouldn't it be "venomous" fangs? If the poison is being secreted by animals and injected through biting it's called venom. God, what a bad TL.
>>148294030
But if the protag is a retard he would be the kind of person to say poisonous instead of venomous. It's characterization.
>>148294030
>God, what a bad TL.
It's literally a cleaned up machine TL.
>>148294205
The speaker is a well-educated adult, not a dumb protagonist.
>>148294030
Good catch. Though making the venom/poison mistake is probably the fault of the QC/TLC.
>>148294293
Which probably explains why it came out as poison instead of distinctly venom. I'm no speaker of Nihongo but I'm fairly certain machine translators can make that mistake often.Complaining about free things is about as bad though.
>>148294315
Does the line following not say he has the mind of a child, i.e., a retard?
Does the line directly after that one not call him stupid?
I rest my case. You're done.
>>148294563
I'm not really complaining about it, just pointing it out.
It reads pretty well most of the time for a machine TL, at least.
>>148294641
It does have an english major/homeless person in the team.
>>148294567
That's just Chiaki and Takumi being dicks.
>>148294729
Well no wonder he's homeless.

No, I just have an irrational belief in karma.
it takes like 20 seconds to make a torrent what's taking them
>>148295891
But they have to make a big post celebrating the release of the patch while including a hearty amount of blogshit from the team about what they're not going to do now.
It could take days for them to get their farewells and fuck yous all together.

Quof actually did it, the absolute madman!
>>148299947
I could do with more Yuzusoft MoegeToo bad I don't understand nip. And there def. is not enough Witch Heroine VNs in english.
I am sorry I know this is spoonfeeding but I can't remember the name for the life of me. What was the name of that fairly recent VN with all the milfs and the with the scene that everyone posts of the guys face in a toilet seat?

Go to sleep. ACF went to bed since he ended up drinking himself nigh-wasted with cheap liquor.
He'll have it finished soon after he wakes, hangover or not.
What version/torrent of Koiken otome is everyone using here?
>>148306091http://sukebei.nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=201727
Apparently he's uploading a torrent of a pre-patched version, though.
>>148306195
guess ill DL that and help seed once the patch goes live.
Is it supposed to be done in the next 24 hours or are people just hype without basis?
>>148306295
Everyone going by the translation team's website. Looks like it's dropping soon.
http://flyingpantsu.net/prepping-the-patch
>>148306295
According to the groups latest update all they have left is to create a torrent of the patch and then post it.
See for yourself: flyingpantsu.net
it's such a fucking crime that she doesn't have a route.
>>148308359
best girls don't get routes, anon
it's japanese law
>>148308359
just learn japanese, go to japan, visit yuzusoft, and ask them to make a fandisc. easy.
>>148308359
Just read Dracu-Riot. The silver haired girl is practically the same character, has the same VA and she has a route.
>>148303991
Well, the only one you definitely shouldn't play is Tokyo Babel. Unless you enjoy snoozefests with about as much depth as a puddle.

God damn it. The motherfucker knows no limits does he.
>>148314145
SB is a bad moege.
>>148314885
Moege is synonymous with bad. There are no good moege.
>>148315058
I'd hold the same view point if I was an EOP since every single translated moege is bad, but that isn't the case in general. There's goods and bads.
>>148315121
I'm not an EOP. You just have shit taste, sorry. There are no good moege. You're reading basically the gutter-garbage of visual novels, which is already gutter-garbage in the wider span of actual literature.
Moege is the lowest of the low. Kill yourself.
Is anyone else planning to download Koiken Otome and drop it after an hour because it's generic trash?
>>148314738
She sure is
>>148315279
It's moege so this is the typical reaction that any self-respecting person should have.

>>148315121
>every single translated moege is bad
Such is the suffering of non 1:1 languages. That one VN that someone said was in casual nihongo made me shudder.And I'm an EOP.
>>148315208
You're in a thread based on the medium that had roots in primarily nukiges and galges. You want to bullshit about having any taste you've pretty much got no actual ground to stand on. Your taste is shit. My taste is shit. Chuee's taste is shit.Though I'm thankful for the work on AstralAir m8.Everybody's taste is shit. If I wanted depth I'd go to /lit/. I'm not there because I've run out of realistic-fantasy novels from the end of last century and can't be fucked to read Xanth again.
If moege makes me have shit taste, so be it. I'll havefunand enjoy my moeges and there's nothing you can do to stop me.
>>148315737

>>148316003
I seriously don't get you moege memers. Why read and discuss bottom-of-the-barrel trash when there are objectively better visual novels like Fate/stay night and Steins;gate? (I chose translated titles for you hopeless EOPs) Which, not only validate the medium, but give competition to the highest pieces of literature.
Please. Get some taste.

Steins;gate has no porn and Fate/stay night has approximately 10 minutes of H-scenes across a 50 hour visual novel.
Try harder.

Daily reminder that rear-facing sprites are the highest level of art.

>>148319551
yeah sure i'll call up Dovac and let him know to drop it.
