If you have nothing better to do. It has maybe 2 or 3 worthwhile routes and even then Cro's ends on anasspullmess souring the route slightly.

Sekai Project is literally helping to advance the VN medium and giving us the first step to VR VN heaven. What's your excuse for still not supporting them?

I don't know what it is about it, but I love this girl's design and outfit. I think it's the exposed shoulders thing.

It honestly looks mindless like koirizo,and thats exactly what I want. That shit was next level comfy, even if it has no story and other issues.

Cool, tell me more.
>>172586006
You chose this. Anyone who posted in a ruined thread chose it. Should have all ditched shit threads and went into proper ones before it got this bad.

It has the hypest battle scene but also has tons of awkward SoL that kinda ruins the pacing, still my favorite route cause it's where Illya gets the most screentime.
Sakura a shit.
>>172585217
Reminder that Varg is a Mitsukifag and enjoys getting NTRed.

You can just listen to Wagner. A lot of his philosophy is in his opera; Der Ring des Nibelungen.

You won't be getting them out of me that easily Irru, you faggot.
I'd be interested in a strawpoll on how many here are learning japanese and how far along in learning they are.
cba to make one tho.
>>172586559
No.
>mfw I ctrl'd through all the Fate/Stay Night fight scenes and I unironically think that the game is a kusoge
I'll probably do the same for Dies irae, desu
>>172586759
>learning japanese to be able to understand chinese visual cartoons
Sorry, I have a job.
>>172586759
>learning nip runes for chinese power points so i can masturbate
>>172586759
I'd be interested in you hanging yourself for trying to turn the thread into /djt/.
>>172586940
If i wasn't learning japanese to masturbate I wouldn't have learnt it at all. Fap material was one of the best motivators for me.
>>172586759
Too many people say they are learning and aren't.
Or are doing it wrong and will end up quitting in like 2 days when they realize they don't like VNs half as much as they thought.
VR visual novels when?
>>172587013
Am I supposed to believe someone who doesn't even know English grammar knows Japanese?
死ぬ行く
>>172587174
How is VR a meme? It's amazing.
>>172586725
If you have loads then at least posting one to show you aren't talking out your ass would be enough to give you some credibility and it wouldn't go far to really fix much if it is as bad as you say, as it would be only one error.

>relying on translators to choose what you can read
Translators aren't translating their best! They're removing honorifics, they're delaying for years, they're detaching H and some i believe are /our guys/
>>172586559
Negatory
>>172587492

>>172587605
>They're removing honorifics
Let's not kid ourselves, people in this community are desperate enough to play (pirate) anything regardless of whether or not it has honorifics, so it doesn't really matter what they prefer. lol
I find this topic personally offensive because the people who are proponents of retaining honorifics are basically making a mockery of the art of translation... for the past few weeks I've been working on a certain translation project that I want to make sure is as polished as possible, and it was extremely disheartening to see this thread tonight with people outright saying that you're "ruining" the original (which they haven't read and have no frame of reference for to begin with) if you so much as attempt to preserve the tone of the original instead of vomiting ro-mazi gibberish everywhere.
Honestly, it doesn't matter to me what people think they want; I'm only concerned about producing a good translation, period, and I would dare to say that any translator worth his or her salt feels the same way. So people can bloviate all they want about how honorifics are supposedly "preserving the meaning" of a language they don't understand in the first place, but at the end of the day no one is actually going to listen to them.
The people who actually understand the language - you know, the ones translating the games - have a perspective on the matter that you lack, plain and simple, and they really do know better than you. So your only option is to simply put up with it. That's a blunt statement to make, yes, but it is also true.
>>172587934
Fata was good enough to make up for lack of H.
Himawari was trash except for one route.
Root double is double trash.
>>172588070
TL;DR.
>>172588073
I see, it's the Fata shill who's trashing on Root Double. Hilarious, back to tumblr with you.
gee, i wonder who this one vote could be
>>172588073
>tfw liked all 3
Fuck you guys
>>172588070
At least try and edit that block into something readable.

Enjoy your butchered "VN''s
>>172588306
Back to fuwanovel with you.
>>172588306
/vn/ is literally just /e-celeb/
this place sucks
I want that week back when people were just blogposting Majikoi. It was comfy
>>172588306
>Come on guys, just let the degenerates in! xd
This place is only good when people start blogging their reads and others join in.
>>172588192
/vn/ has shit taste what else is new. People here even actually think saber isn't best girl
>>172588531
most people here haven't read anything TM since its all shit.
>>172588650
>its
I actually realized recently I don't actually like visual novels.
>>172588245
Guess who it is from.
>>172588531
I am /vn/ and Saber has been my waifu for 11 years.
>>172588527
So whats the next moege coming?
>>172588527
If I talk about a VN I'm reading I get a bunch of condescending shitposts. So I just join in the shitposting now.
>>172588023
I FUCKING SAID I LOVE YOU, STUPID DENSE PRICK
>>172585267
Every route is pretty bad
>>172588763
I love fireworks too.
>>172588531
wormfags are just the most obnoxious. we are here, waiting to meet in avalon.
>>172588736
School days 2 I guess is within the next month or so of release
>>172588741
Yeah, whenever I blogpost about a VN, I get spoiled. Sometimes even whenever I mention a VN, so I just decide to read my games without talking about it and leave /vn/ for shitposting.
>When the MC says something completely unexpected / autistic and it takes you right out of the vn

Man, that scene was fucking awfulI need some magic power, so fuck me silly
>>172588994
Can't hide from the truth anon
What Sekai Project release are you most looking forward to?
>>172588945
This
But really out of the choices of her, Sakura, and Saber, I'd really prefer none they are all so shit.
Fate is garbage as confirmed by Moogy himself. Stop talking about it immediately.
All fate girls are trash. Please take your 8th grade chuunishit to that other general
>>172589069
Illya is one of my daughterus.
>>172589172
wtf i love Fate now
>>172588697
Between that attitude, and how he dropped Schatten, I am surprised he managed to get involved with another official project.
>>172589109
Company closure notice
>tfw only watched the FS/N anime years ago
>tfw my favourite memory was the alexander the greatthe guy with the army in the different dimension, right?and the nerdy guy being best buds eventually
idk anything about the vns, can i relive that part in the vn? i loved that part.
>>172589265
Not while Nekopara and Kickstarter exists, bub.
>>172589228
He's working on Muramasa.
>>172589172
If anything, I like Fate even more now
>>172589095i thought it was pretty terrible up until the final moment where she wanted to look into your eyes. god damn that was WEW
i only look back on it fondly, no matter how out of place it was
>>172589228
He's probably just editing again. Which means he'll just be sitting on his fatass spamming Tweets whilst having autistic fits on Discord, and once in awhile Makoto will send him a script to look at, he'll go, "ya looks good lol" and continue sniffing his farts
Why do we hate Moogy again?
>>172589228
The scene is lacking in people who are above MTL level, as nearly everyone else has been bought out, so they are kinda stuck with whoever they can get even if it is moogy.
>>172589172
Why is this fag relevant?
>>172589318
That was Fate/Zero, not FSN.
>>172589318
>>172589661
Yeah, and if you watched Fate/Zero before Fate/Stay Night you pretty much spoiled yourself for all of the major plot twists of the game.
Don't come to this thread tomorrow
>>172589318you are right that iskandar is best husbando
but that was fate/zero, not stay night. it was the adaptation of a light novel which was a spinoff of fate/stay night.
you should read fate/stay night, or at least the fate route. if you don't want to go on after that you can then watch the unlimited blade works(the second route in fs/n) anime adaptation since it's top tier and by the same guys who did zero.
>>172589786
I hope Runa-chan is in this thread tomorrow
>>172589362
>"ya looks good lol" and continue sniffing his farts
kek, he's living the life
>>172589172
>>172588994
Did that guy just pee his pants? Holy fuck.
>>172589824
>same guys who did zero
Yeah if only I was retarded or 12 then I could enjoy it.
>>172589865
I hope Runa-chan's anus isn't too loose
>>172589786
>April 1st
Oh boy, I sure love all these upcoming great (fake) announcements.
Type Moon usually puts in some effort though I will admit.
>>172589995
Do aliens have anuses?
>>172589941
you ain't cool unless you pee your pants
>>172589824
Fate route is probably the weakest route of the three since it has to establish a bunch of things that he actually already knows, but I guess that can't be helped.
Anyway, as for the original question, Zero and FSN are very different in tone. Personally, I think Zero is a little too edgy and find the characters unsympathetic, but plenty of people like just that about it. So yeah, just reading the first route as he suggested would be a good place to start. It gets better from there, but if you're not already invested by that point it's unlikely that UBW or HF will really change your mind.
>>172589973
well, you may not be 12
>>172589865
She'll catch up
>>172590149
Everybody my age pees their pants. It's the coolest
Can you guys take this shit VN discussion to Reddit so we can discuss something of actual quality like Runa?
>>172589319
really wish nekoworks did their own thing, thay way I could feel less guilty supporting SP.
>>172590450
Why would you feel guilty about supporting SP?
Whats about fateboy's?
>>172590203
I want to rape her.
>>172590506
They're garbage
>>172589940
what are conjeurors thoughts on honorifics?
Nasu made 1 good VN and it wasn't Fate thats for damn sure
>>172590527
>draw a girl
>say it has a penis
Lazy shit.
>>172590506
Aroduc's blood is literally on their hands
>>172590203
woah I am a /vn/ regular for 3 years and this is the absolute bottom
even Ti9 couldn't shitpost this hard
>>172590576
It wasn't Tsukihime either, that's for sure.
>>172589172
>tfw worse clone of FSN in just over a month
>>172590668
He only shitpost when he had to.
Kids these days come over from Reddit and have no respect.
>>172590506
>>172590816
Indeed. Ti9's shitposting was an art, meant for us to focus our hatred on him, and, thus, coming together for a single purpose.
We literally didn't deserve him.
>>172590506
Because they are terrible at running their company, constantly delay shit and put out poor quality releases.
>>172590181
i'm opposite to what most people think for this. I really liked the fate route but the others not so much. by ubw the monologues were starting to just repeat themselves and became exhausting. Hf was good but i just couldn't get myself to care about sakura.
Shes so great.
>>172590897
we all unite under our hatred for SP though
>>172591035
>not liking "IM BECOME SORD" and "UNRIMITED BEITU WOKKUSU"
hmmm
is there any news on the noratoto translation? i havent heard of it in a while.
>>172591175
>all
No.
Okay taking a break from moege. I'm going to blog post about this ever so often since I'm sick of the shitposting.
Mary is a real cutie pie.
>>172591256
If you don't hate SP, you work there.
>>172591278
M and the masked guy are the same person
If everyone apparently hates Sekai, why do they keep getting support and money from sales and kickstarters?
>>172591458
/vn/ is not the entire visual novel fanabase of the west. You don't need to shill here.
>>172591458
Desperation for new stuff. Also physical rewards.
>>172591458
because reddit and fuwanovel shitters are retards
>>172591565
Yeah, it's a completely irrelevant minority. You don't matter.
>>172591690
even reddit dislikes them
>>172591830
Exactly, so tell your bosses your time would be better spent elsewhere.
>>172591830
In the matter of people who buy VNs we are. Especially with the target audience Sekai is apparently meant to be aiming for.
We've gone full circle
well /vn/?
>>172592082

I love how Sekai has captured a completely different audience than this place and how much money they make out of them.
>>172592239
I like both.

>>172592239
low testfags will say slim while alphas will say plump
>>172592286
Pretty sure outside of Nekopara and Sakura games they don't make as much as you think they do. I remember Dovac bitching on twitter about how shit was flopping and then blaming pirates and how they are always in the red.
>>172592456
nigga that aint plump, thats fat.
>>172592239
Goddamnit Tripli I want Yukino asap! Cant you just go rogue and do her route?
>>172592458
They don't have Sakura titles any more (aside from a handful of titles still on Denpasoft), Winged-Cloud began self publishing.
Rabi-Ribi was a suitable replacement for them though.
>>172592456
That's a fucking white whale
>>172592816
Sorry. I'm using Yukino route as motivation to get through the other two as efficiently as I can.
We're still working okay-fast, though
>>172592845
A FUCKING WHITE WHALE
>>172593018

>>172593018
I believe in you, Tripli. I'll just be patient.
>>172588070
How would we translate this, then? Mr. "Honorifics are bad."
>>172593208
>>172593230
did this motherfucker name himself bucklog just so that when he took a screenshot of a backlog he would have bucklog next to it?
>>172593208
Where is this from?
>>172589510
That is a reason to hire under qualified translators, as the Steam audience doesn't care as long as the text resembles English. It's not a good reason to hire a translator with a history of dropping both official and fan translations where there is a real risk of never getting a finished translation.
>>172593230
That's relatively simple. Instead of using 'chan', just give her a proper nickname that the protag uses instead. I think that'd convey the same meaning.
Moogy has a point. It's not like any of you shit-eaters would care about honorifics or not, you're so starved to play games that you'd read any shit that was shoveled in front of you, regardless of whether or not it had a good translation.
>>172593751
>Moogy has a point
Stopped reading there, fuck off moogy.
Not enough vn lolis here.
>>172593383
Nope. That was a spelling mistake on their end. Silly guys at Lune fucked up.
>>172593861
>>172593596
just add -poo at the end of it problem solved.
>>172586235
How is she like Mitsuru? Aside from similar bodies they are not much alike. Mitsuru's personality is that she is full of self doubt and guilt over her father's deeds while Celia's biggest traits are her self confidence and the how everyone loves her unlike Mitsuru who has a lot of enemies thanks to the company.

>>172594456
There is literally no nickname someone could come up with for Shiho that would work like that. All just so that that one line makes sense when she talks about it, too. You'd have an easier time just ignoring what she said or rewriting it completely over pulling some convoluted backflip shit for consistency.

Are they that bad? Maya and Kyou were what I was expecting the most.
>>172597447
ask him
>>172597460
Oh, I didn't mean it that way. I just personally want to do Yukino route the most. I'm sure I'll enjoy Maya route a lot, and I'm still enjoying Kyou route right now
>>172597286
Why do people still think Conjueror is a good translator again? Even /vn/ admitted he was overrated trash when Himawari released.
>>172594293
Cute doggo.Wanko's better though.
>>172597447
Fouq = Ti9
>>172597536
Liar! Irru said Kyou's route was shit!
sekai actually managed to release pacaplus after it being stalled for a year when it was already translated before they licensed it
amazing
>>172597659
I'm gonna laugh my ass off when SP hires Irru&Co.
>>172597447
Quof is actually Ixrec. He changed his name so moogy wouldn't send the cartel after him again after he said Cross Channel was overrated.
>>172597536
Whew. Good to hear then.
Ganbare, co.!
>>172597623
Yeah, he's not too into it. I'm personally fine with TLing most things as long as the girl's decent, though.
Though I do agree with him that plot-wise, Runa route is the strongest of the three we've worked on so far. Kyou is probably the weakest
>>172597771
Does anyone even care what moogy says by now? I'm pretty sure everyone agrees moogy is an idiot.
>>172597778
you put the girl above the route

What the hell is wrong with people that think honorifics are some kind of untranslatable part of Japanese, but gobi, pronouns, keigo are okay to translate, or is it because honorifics is the only thing they can comprehend?

Don't talk bad about Runa! She is a good girl who is just trying her best for her senpai's sake.
>>172599295
Yeah, the ending is great, it's revealed that literally everything that happened to Malcolm in the entire show was part of a conspiracy by his family to get him elected president and they were all in on it.
>>172599295
its not still going on if thats what you mean. But there was quite a few seasons after alaska and although quality drops a little at points, on the whole i'd say the later seasons are still quite good.apart from the last season. Most of that was awful.

Reasons to like episode 6: Erika
That's it.
is !x+mnmrU0sW ded?
>>172609557
I liked episode 6 because of the Love trial fights specifically, I could probably write paragraphs about why specifically I liked those fights and what they did, but I dont want to ramble about it. Plus the logic error and Beatrice's comeback were really great to me.
I really like episode 2 because it has the biggest foreshadowing on a re-read.
>>172609807
Ooh one thing also that I liked about episode 6 that I think doesn't get mentioned a lot is Erikas character development in the ending scene. I thought it was cool how hey Erika ended up learning something through how she failed in solving the logic error, and one of my main complaints about the series is that this character development wasn't maintained in episode 8. She just reverted to how she usually was.
Wow, the H-scenes in f/sn are complete garbage, the writing isn't even similar to the rest of the VN. The character's also aren't consistent with how they act, I guess no game can be actual Kamige if it isn't all ages.

Why does every game have to carry a message? You playing games is escapism in itself fuckface, try to enjoy things for once and stop looking for "muh deep messages" in motherfucking mongolian porn power points you subhuman fucking chink.
>>172614634
Some games are meant to have messages and some are not
that guy's still retarded and all though
>>172614634
I just think it's kinda mean. I can never understand why people feel the need to circle jerk about why they hate something. I know /vn/ and 4chan in general does it a lot but most of the time we're shitposting. There's always a redeeming factor to most of the games we play. I don't think I'd ever unironically say something like 'Don't read this VN if you love life', even if I hated something. Unless the game was like super sad and made you depressed, but if I said that it would be as a compliment.

O-Okay.
>>172614634
>You playing games is escapism in itself
I think that's the root of the problem.
a lot of people would appear much less retarded if they accepted this simple fact, at the very most those "deep messages" are just incentives to get into the real serious works (ie. fucking books), and should be treated as nothing more than that.
and this doesn't stop at VNs, works with every goddamn entertainment medium, if you really want to go full autist, do it based on serious shit, at the very least you'll actually know what the fuck you are talking about.sorry for my bad english

And here we thought you were the perfect couple... You've disappointed us.
>>172622347
It's as others said. The route may be shit but I still like Kyou.
Where are Irru and Tripli from?
Or rather what timezone
>>172622463
I think Trip said he was in the states, I'm pretty sure irru is eurotrash.
>>172619820
That's not greater Canada
>>172622463
Irru is from Hong Kong, Tripli is Macau
>>172622347
>implying you wouldn't shitpost your bro
it's like you never had friends or something
>>172622724
But Irru and Trip are /ourguys/ because of they're translation speed, if they don't think like one person, how is it possible that they translate so quickly...?
>>172622347
What's a couple without a few fights here and there?
>>172622391
How often will you and Trip be translating VNs? If I'm not mistaken, Hatsukoi is the first VN you're translating, right??
>>172622924
>right??
>>>/reddit/
>>172623204
Well I retyped my question, forgot to delete the original question mark, and put in another one by habit. Guess I'm reddit now!????????
>>172622924
First VN, yes. But before this we did about five/six years of manga.
We've pretty much decided on our next title as well. If everything goes according to plan and we don't run into any technical issues then we'll reveal our next project with the Maya patch.
>>172623530
Is it another cowtitge?
>>172623735
We can only hope!!!
>>172623735
I don't think of Hatsukoi as a cowtitge so I dunno if you think my opinion is valid or not.
Anyhow I don't believe it is.
>>172623835
One last question; does it have a cake in it..?
>>172623902
Sorry buster, that's all the info I can give.
>>172624123
>buster
our guy
>>172624123
That's alright, it's understandable that you can't give out too much information. I'll be eagerly awaiting the Maya patch so I can shitpost about your next translation project!
>>172624204
Looking forward to it.
>>172578551
Very interesting. It seems like the game renders the LIME messages two ways.
Inside the phone, and then as normal text so you can look it up through the backlog.
Still doesn't fix our issues, sadly.
>>172624660
That's not interesting in the slightest.
Lolige is killing /vn/, purge the pedos!
it died
>>172624660
and there's no option to display those messages as normal text I suppose

a-at least the soundtrack is goodi'll probably uninstall after the first door
>>172627279
What, the first Door? It's literally a psuedo-Shakespearean tragedy.
Each door is pretty different. First two are the worst in the game.
>>172628023
>you only need to read for 20 hours for it to get good
>>172628124
I liked the first two doors, but I suppose it depends on how much you like that kind of flowery drama.
And if you take 20 hours to get through them, then your reading speed is probably terrible.
>>172627279
honestly if you're that put off by the introduction then i doubt you'll like the rest of the game.
granted the story is dramatically different than what it first appears to be, it's still a drama-heavy title focused on tragedy and grey morality. if you're not interested in 30 hours of that then just refund it m8
>she wasyour sister all along
Wow, what a great twist. Really makes sitting through all that boring shit worth it.
The soundtrack is great, I'll give it that.
>>172602696
Why does Sekai even bother doing release dates? They never make them.
>>172629008
Fucking hell, that's some hideous art.
>>172629008
>Wow, what a great twist. Really makes sitting through all that boring shit worth it.
this describes far too many VNs

It has charm, but everyone has different tastes.
>>172629559
I wasn't serious.
Give me back my fucking money.
>>172629008
it's not really about the twist, it's more about the degeneration of Nellie's character and Mell's neglectful attitude
the twist is just an irony that breaks her
>>172629610
just refund it you nerd.
it's your fault for buying a VN before trying it
>>172629610

Aren't you the PEfag that got triggered by Osadai's humor? Did you buy that too?
>>172629648

Way past 2 hours already.
Yeah, this is the last time i do that.

>Osadai's humor
If I bought Osadai I would have killed myself by now.
>>172629798
Osadai is a kamige of moege. You'll understand it on more than a surface level someday.
>>172629715
Torrent things before you buy them. If you enjoy the product, purchase it to support the developers.

>>172629865
>You'll understand it on more than a surface level someday.
Yeah, I'm sure I will be mature enough someday to understand that deep masterpiece.
>>172629965
I'm just still baffled how you were able to get through the slog that was Princess Evangile but you were somehow put off by Osadai's hijinks. You didn't even get to the routes which are maximum cute and way better than PE's drama infested shite
>>172607895
Except neither you nor he seem to understand what the word "propaganda" means.
>>172622186
Praise me more
>>172630052
I can't help it if I find the humor obnoxious. If it wasn't being thrown in my face every 5 seconds then maybe I could ignore it. PE had someone unfunny jokes but they were so far inbetween that I could easily get past them.
Also
>implying that PE didn't have some funny as fuck scenes
Who knows, maybe I'll try Osadai on another day and my impression will be different.
>>172630429
Your pic related is just as "obnoxious" as Osadai'd humor was desu

aaand done, that true soute kinda saved the whole thing, along with Sara's and some parts of the others, still, just like the whole series everything has way too much boring filler, best thing is the music imo.
don't know if I should bother with the side episodes
>>172631091
I'm not much of a coffee person either. Caffeinated stuff in general, besides the rare drink of coke (vanilla coke, because if you're gonna drink coke it ought to be the best type of it).
>>172631350
>vanilla coke
Cherry coke is the real kamidrink, anon.
>>172631350
Everyone who says coke zero has the same flavor as regular coke it's a fucking alien and must be killed.
>>172631448
They are trying to brainwash themselves into thinking that, anon. I would rather drink water than coke zero desu
>>172631230
>don't know if I should bother with the side episodes
First one you should have played as soon as the magic school bit started as it is the real intro to the game. The last one is more DC2 fanservice and a slight bit more closure on Sakura. the others are more focused on different girls, one being Aoi and being a pseudo short route, one being a huge teas of a route for Tomoe (which doesn't exist even in fandisks) and the other a cute little event with the headmistress.
>>172631230

Dr. Pepper is the actual best, by the way.
>>172606848

>>172632224
is it the same thing but different art?
>>172631790

>>172632207
My nigga.
>>172632207
No.
>>172631038
I love the taste of monster, balls, red bull and especially rockstar. Too bad I had to to stop drinking them due to hyperthyroidism.
>>172632668
>i love the taste of balls
That one I can believe.
>>172632509
>no way I'd want to read that Tomoe bit tho (seriously what the fuck)
Yea it is quite the slap in the face. It is fairly short but she basically says (though not to his face) that if the MC wasn't such a beta he could have a chance with her.
It does give some nice background to her character though if you are curious about her.
>drinking soft drinks
Say hello to an early grave while I'll be living in VR anime girl world.
>>172632771
Drinking them on the rare occasion isn't so bad, like once a week. Drinking them like it's fucking water is where it becomes a problem.
>>172632726
yeah no I've had my fill of noroute girls.
Circus really are one of those devs I just can't understand
>>172633085
They'll probably eventually make her a route. They are still making DC3 DLC lol
>>172632342
Never played the original, but since the remake plays out like normal VN instead of dating sim with map movement and event flags shit, how the story played out obviously will be better. Also, Marika's friend is not actually molesting her in the remake and written off as Masaki's friend's fantasy erotic novel.
>>172633085
They love milk a series with fandisks, and it wouldn't be that far fetched to have another one with her route at some point with how many they made for DC1 and 2.
Though we probably wont ever get it translated as if any of them were to be it would be the main ones already out.
I've never had a problem installing VNs before until now.
I'm trying to get better at Japanese so I torrented Lovely Cation, which has seemingly relatively doable Japanese for someone around my level (somewhere between N3 and N2)
However I can't figure out how to get past needing to authenticate it. I can't find a crack folder in the torrent, and I've now donwloaded three different versions from NYA/Sukebei and I have the same problem with all 3.
I got Lovely Cation 2 and it works fine, but no dice with the first one and the first one has some heroines I really want to practice my Japanese with
Anyone have an idea or something simple I am probably not doing here?

daily reminder that you won't get umineko if you haven't experienced true love
and it really shows with kastel
the reason why he and the cartel hates it so much is because they're all people who never had a girlfriend or even experienced real love that didn't come from some character in a vn
Umineko is a work that only a select few can truly enjoy, and it's more than a kamige. It's a modern piece of art. Kastel can whine all he wants, but deep down, he knows it's true. It's why he and others still get mad about Umineko 6 years after it's done.
>>172637737
Same. It's why I'll probably never go to those cons, apart for them probably smelling like death
>>172637862
I've gone to a few weeb cons myself. The girls there are mad hungry for dick, you can probably pork a few chicks if you put in a little bit of effort. Hard to find anyone above a 6/10, though.
And yes, people smell awful.
what do you guys think about going to conventions about vns / other jap media?
on the 1 hand i'm a little curious i've never been to a convention and i generally like nip shit. On the other hand from pictures i see most of the people look very, lets say, stereotypical and some of the things i see on sale seem cringey.
>>172637862
The smell is horrendous. It's some weird mix of sweat, old socks, cup noodles and make up. Mix that with a pretty intense heat and you got a really nasty cocktail.

Moogy and Kastel sure do spend a lot of time writing about Umineko and how they hate it, and how people shouldn't talk about it.Maybe it's true and honest love for Uminekomaybe it's all just a false flag to get people to read it and swallow the chirupill

at least that MG guy got his hair cut and clothes his size

I think I'd stand out, and I don't like that
>>172638460
I like Kastel because it's fun to read and laugh his pretentious essays on chinese porn powerpoints as if they're some kind of high art.
That's not really seeing him as an authority. It's just laughing at him. He probably has the least credibility of any e-"""celeb""", which says a lot.
He's completely right about Umineko being trash though.
>>172638460
he's not he's just there to be made fun of for being autistic and insecure over reading chinese power points and trying to hide it by talking about reading Real Literature (tm) too
Let's settle this once and for all.

>>172638106
I would never go to any weeb convention unless I somehow ended up in nipland, which I have no plans to do
>>172638665
their hatred of it steeps into the irrational. i hate Umineko and i almost never post about it. i even occasionally recommend it still because, even though I personally dislike it, it's still a work that's liked by a lot of people. it's just polarizing.
the kind of autistic screeching done by Moogy and Kastel regarding it is so over-exaggerated that it's hard to take them seriously. they really remind me of the idea that "hate" and "love" have very thin lines between one another. because they never shut the fuck up about it
>People are still mad about Umineko 6 years later

One thing that bothers them is when the English community likes different things than what they think the English community should like. Umineko happens to be one of those things.

Don't worry, no one with a brain could.
Someone post it.
>>172642925
Here we are in 2016 and I'm left perturbed by the way the community has grown. Though my goal of bringing more titles to the west has been accomplished in a big way by a variety of companies and individuals, the fanbase is still content to simply sit around discussing the flavor of the week instead of venturing out of their comfort zone and exploring what's available to them. It's like we never left 2006, just with a slightly different set of games being hailed as the end-all, be-all of the medium by people who don't know any better now.
Unfortunately, I'm becoming more and more aware that my perspective on matters is irreconcilably distant from the western fanbase's. I care a great deal about eroge/VNs and am very personally invested in the subset of Japanese fiction that they represent; I went out of my way to learn the language just to further explore Japanese subculture and contemporary literature. Meanwhile, the western fanbase seems to just treat any Japanese media as an extension of anime or video games, just part of the same overall "fandom" if you will. To put it another way, I'm interested in the "canon" surrounding eroge, while people consuming translations are content to simply treat them as individual products.
Honestly, I shouldn't have even posted in here. The way I approach the medium as a whole and what I look for out of eroge/VNs are simply too far removed from the western fanbase's to have any sort of meaningful discourse with people using translations, and I accept that. But at the same time, as someone who helped build the community as it is today, I guess I'm unable to fully suppress my irritation at the way it hasn't developed into the ideal I imagined for it over the years.

I couldn't take him seriously because he works in a joke profession of translating chinese powerpoint slides for fapping. It's a fine hobby, sure, get to practice a practical skill plus you get to fap. But as a career choice?

I think working in the eroge industry isn't shameful--putting your heart into anything you have passion for isn't really worthy of jest. But Moogy doesn't even do that. He mostly shitposts on Twitter and Discord, he barely works. Meanwhile he's content to sit on his ass at home doing nothing as his Mom pays for his bills and food. He's pathetic
Hi, I read the entirety of Umineko as it came out and I feel like I'm being generous when I give it a 4/10. It's a convoluted mess that reads like it was written by a 12 year old. The Japanese fanbase refuses to so much as give Ryuukishi the time of the day nowadays for good reason.
Honestly, I find the extent to which the western fanbase is obsessed with Umineko to this day to be frightening in a sense. I have no idea how you guys can drone on about it day after day nearly six years after the final episode was released; Ryuukishi is a hack who has no idea how to actually tell a story that does anything except continually bait the reader with red herrings and empty promises of greater themes. He's been like this since Higurashi and will never improve, either on a technical level or as a storyteller in general.
Like I said, almost no Japanese fan cares about Ryuukishi nowadays, and it's more than people just being pissed off about episode 8 of Umineko (people were pissed off about Minagoroshi and Matsuribayashi long before then, anyway). It's because they've had enough exposure to him to see through his tricks and stop falling for his brand of spectacle and sophistry. And yes, his terrible, childish text is part of the problem too - there are parts of Higurashi that have such embarrassingly poor writing that they're used as copypasta on 2ch.
>>172643215
He is not wrong. You twats never discuss anything except majikoi/grisaia and random flavor of the week moege that get translated.
>>172644437
Hi Moogy
>>172644437
What did he mean by this?
>>172644437
>discussing the things that you like is bad
It's the same with any medium, anon. There are going to be some titles that stand out more than the rest and those are the ones that people will talk about the most. Also, I think the fact that this guy is upset that the western fanbase doesn't have the same general opinions that he does just makes him come off as extremely butthurt.
>>172644437
This is the moege general after all
>>172644437
They are the only good VN's
NEW THREAD PLS

>The Japanese fanbase refuses to so much as give Ryuukishi the time of the day nowadays for good reason.
This will never fail to amuse me. Who gives a flying fuck about what the Japanese think? They're notorious for having shit taste.
>>172644437
we haven't been a grisaia general in a few weeks, right? is it time again?
>>172644960
>memekoi
>good
>>172645047
it isn't even accurate, since Umineko got a port on the PS3 that sold extremely well and Iwaihime got good reviews
>>172644437
He wishes people would discuss the niche titles that he holds up as being remarkable literary works.
It's not like the Japanese community is much different though, while they still like the big titles of the past, the output of new titles is mostly moege and nukige for a reason.
We are still Muvgen
>>172645231
Didn't Higurashi also get a re-release on 3DS and Vita that sold pretty damn well?
>>172645235
Poor moogy. He is just too enlightened and smart for his own good. It must be hard to be such a genius.
>>172645298
I am okay with this
>>172645367
I hear the secret is regularly wetting your pants.
>all these people shitting on moogy
I'm literally shaking. You ungrateful EOPs, there would never be a translated VN scene in the first place if it wasn't for moogy's influence. Apologize!
>>172645487
>unironically having a framed picture of something FFX related
No wonder Moogy is a FFX fan, it shows.
>>172645505
>Be JOP
>care about EOP
hmm??? Is this what I think it is???
are we doing titanic again?
anyone going to make new thread?
whoever makes the next thread make sure to get rid of the all the (embed) and (crossthread) shit, increment the number, and link this thread as the last oneand add English translanted back to the OPnot that it matters because the two JOPs are always busy shitposting anwyays to talk about their untranslated VN
