I hope Tokyo Necro goes through well, i think its like 1 person doing all of the work

i hope all visual novel translation progress stops forever so that my favorite games don't become kusoge

Seinarukana soon!
I guess.

>>15087558
Don't support Seinarukana. The translator doesn't respect chuuni culture.

So how are these rewards for the Chusingura KS? That's a lot of stuff... and the base game is only $15

http://prefundia.com/projects/view/chusingura461-a-visual-novel-with-moe-samurai-girls/8904/

>>15087566
I don't give a shit about chuuni.

>>15087577
Then why would you care about Seinarukana?

>>15087583
Because I liked Aselia.

>>15087589
You know they're both chuuni as fuck, right?

>>15087595
I people are overapplying this "chuuni" label for VNs if you start calling Aselia chuuni. At that point you might as well label anything where people shout out attack names as chuuni. That's like 50% of JRPGs.

>>15087595
Yeah, but I don't really care. I liked it for what it was. It being chuuni or not makes no difference to me.

>>15087604
It's a game where the protagonist is the reincarnation of the god of destruction and struggles against his inner darkness while contracting to the anti-life goddess to defeat the creator goddess of a multiverse who sealed them both away for being too powerful.

You're fucking retarded.

>>15087613
... so it's like half of JRPG stories then?

Reminder that SP release of maitetsu is confirmed to be all ages by the game's writer.

>>15087617
You have no idea what chuuni means, do you?

>>15087623
Sure, but I don't like this recent trend of applying that term to VNs as if it were a legitimate classification.

>>15087629
So you're going to bitch about it when it's applied totally correctly to a VN that is the epitome of chuuni.

Makes sense.

>>15087637
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Still Bundles. One interesting note though, is that Haruka's been right up behind the bundles popularitywise this entire time, only losing the immediate spot behind them to tokyobabel for one week during it officially going on sale, and the new AJtilley game this week. Seems like it's still getting a trickle of sales a month later.

Why would you?

>>15087861
Because everyone loves collecting games on Steam.

Buying VNs on Steam is supporting censorship

>>15087874
How do you feel about buying Maitetsu on Steam when it comes out?

>Merry Christmas!
>Posted on Friday December 25th, 2015
>…but there’s still so much to do. At least six months’ worth, probably more.

What will it be?

>>15087874
But Liarsoft and Rropeller games aren't censored.

>>15087877
I dont buy censored stuff, when its censored you pirate it.

>>15087847
Exact same price (well, not really, considering regional pricing) but MangaGamer gets a bigger cut of it.

>>15087882
I know but if VNs keep selling better on Steam then on their website it means they will try to bring more VNs to steam and that leads to more censoring. So I rather just buy it from their website directly.

I wonder if MG is going to be able get Da Capo out before 2016. It's been going on for what 2 years now? I think it started somewhere around early 2014

>>15087573
Not worth because it seems that this version will be a mobile port without voices and no +18 scenes.

>>15087935
Without voices? That's gonna be pretty shit. I don't mind the lack of 18+ though. I heard the Vita version is fine without it.

>>15087955
So it's fine without the H-scenes then, got it.

>>15087966
Lol, I guess you have to stay positive as an EOP, you don't get much.

>>15087969
Somehow I get the feeling if it were really as bad as described there, it wouldn't be rated so highly.

Just heard about the Gahkthun thing. I bet Sekai Project and friends are shitting themselves over this, because now MangaGamer has shown the other companies have NO EXCUSE.

>>15087969
>getting cocky about poorly written sex scenes

Typical overconfident gaijin.

>>15087978
Not really, because there's a big difference between the sexual content of Gahkthun and most other eroge.

>>15087974
That or the dude would have dropped it instead of reading a bunch more hours on something he hated.

>>15087980
You're braindead.

This guy at least understands the point >>15087974 It's indeed mysterious why it's so highly rated at EGS.

>>15087981
>N-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-not really! *sweats profusely*

>>15087984
That's no mystery. The gaijin who thinks he can read Japanese with his text hooker isn't actually any good at reading it. That post in >>15087955 is basically fanfiction.

>>15087984
It's also an 8.5 on vndb and it sure wasn't voted that way for its pretty art. Plus it's a VN that's never talked about in English circles so it's not like there's some EOP fanbase brigading it highly in hype

>>15087886
That's not true. MangaGamer is not like Sekai Project. They will avoid censoring wherever possible. They make a point of selecting VNs for Steam that don't need to be censored. Whatever though, what matters is that you purchased the game, so good on you.

>>15087989
>It's also an 8.5 on vndb
Lol, that's absolutely meaningless.

>>15087988
Whatever EOP pal, you'll see when you play it. Make me a promise, once you play it and see it's tedious crap you'll admit how fucking clueless shitter you were, 'kay?

>>15087999
How insecure are you to throw around EOP like that, gaijin pig? All the burgers going to your head? I played it already. That's how I know you are full of shit.

>>15087999
So both EGS and vndb ratings for it are useless because you say it's bad? A VN that doesn't have much presence in the English community isn't going to have a distorted vndb score anyway.

>>15087978
What happens with Bokuten is much more important. While the Liarsoft games got through, they are quite mild by eroge standards and since both got through uncut it doesn't help establish exactly where the line is except beyond where conventional wisdom had put it. Bokuten will need some editing, and Mangagamer appears like they plan to figure out exactly what that limit is, so it should give us a hard look at exactly what Steam finds acceptable at the moment.

>>15088005
No more needs to be said, just remember what I told you.

>>15088004
Cool delusion. Just remember this when you play it and see how it is.

>>15088006
Inb4 it gets through completely uncensored and reveals that Steam is fine with ponos in vagoo sex scenes as long as you get it ESRB rated.

>>15088009
What is with this NO U bullshit? Fuck off with your shitposting, nobody cares about your fantasies.

>>15087920

Obviously not. They should be able to push it out before 2017 though, if the progress keeps up the current rate.

Kouryuu's recent comments on Gahkthun/Bokuten censorship

>>15088024
>while we may need
>may

Oh shit. Uncensored Steam release confirmed.

>>15087955
Wow, that faces like weird flat masks slapped on. First time in my life seeing such glaring inability to draw.

>>15088011
While that would be ideal, it seems likely that Steam wouldn't want to open that Pandora's Box yet. Steam could likely easily justify including Bokuten with an ESRB AO rating (and could easily add EF, which already has an AO rating, right after it), but afterwards they would either need to create a platform wide policy dealing with such titles on an case by case basis, or deal with a bunch of short OELVN nukige titles that would show up soon after.

I've not followed subahibi for almost one year, can someone tell me why it isn't translated yet?

>>15088067
It's getting an official release (although distribution details have yet to be announced)

I find it very concerning. The shipping on Samurai, Head Page, Chief Retainer and Arms Commissioner will be insane, and adding the production costs of the goods the total costs will significantly exceed the tier values. They cannot reasonably make money off of this.

So the question is this: Is JAPAN CONTENT willing to pay this much for a glorified marketing campaign, or are backers going to be faced with a 'sorry, we ran out of kickstarter money'?

>>15087791
We're getting Steam keys for Gahkthun? I figured the whole Steam key thing was entirely off the table after the credit card fraud thing, but it would be cool if we still got them for the stuff bought before that.

>>15087619
No.

>>15087955
Chusingura is popular because it is basically MLA in feudal Japan (multiple time loops + highly animated action scenes based on sprites jumping around). I don't see why is it so surprising. What is weird however is the fact that instead of advertising it as such they're bullshiting about moe samurai girls. It really shows how they perceive english market as interested only in moeshit.

>>15088062
Those nukige would need to get greenlit first. They would have plenty of time to prepare. Besides, Steam has Zombie Zoeds. Quality obviously isn't an issue here.

>>15088147
How did it get so popular with such awful art? Actually, wait, I guess that applies to Muv-Luv too. What the fuck is up with Japan?

>>15088147
>What is weird however is the fact that instead of advertising it as such they're bullshiting about moe samurai girls.

Maybe they want to play a prank on EO...nglish Readers? But that would be pointless now. They probably just want the Steam audience that liked "epic anime girls like in Nekopara".

>>15088086
>We're getting Steam keys for Gahkthun? I figured the whole Steam key thing was entirely off the table after the credit card fraud thing, but it would be cool if we still got them for the stuff bought before that.

The reason it's okay in this case is BECAUSE it's only for people who already bought the game. Won't have to deal with fraud here because it's all for confirmed purchases.

>>15088162
The art isn't at all always that relevant for a VN to be popular. Look at the american cartoons like Family Guy; is ugly as fuck but it's popular.

It was originally a doujin vn released in chapters and the artstyle improves further on. It is quite alright in fandisc. But H-scenes look absolutely disgusting all the time. All-Ages steam release would be an actual inprovement in this case.

>>15088174

Yes, exactly. The fraud issue was because people were targeting games with steam keys to make illegitimate purchases and harvest the keys. If a game didn't have keys previously or there was no expectation of keys (because it wasn't on Steam yet) there's no reason the fraudsters would have targeted it.

And to answer another question from earlier, the keys aren't out yet because... it's the weekend in Japan now and I may have forgotten to remind the person with the keys that we needed to get that sorted out on Thursday (Friday in Japan). Oops.

>>15088190
Speak for yourslef, I've seen worse H scenes (like the ones from Demonbane) but this don't mean that it's better cut them and encourage more censorship.

Is it really true that there won't be voice acting in Chushingura or did someone just make that up to try and sabotage it?

>>15088200
We need to stop throwing around the word "censorship" like this. What they're doing is making changes to improve the story - writing the VN the way it was MEANT to be written instead of shoehorned sex scenes to pander to horny otaku. Not every cut exists to make the game worse. In fact, many make it better.

>>15088205
Fuck off shithead.

You can't deny that Konosora would have worked if it actually had a good translation.

In very early stages.

Yes. The screenshot is just Sachiho reading English. You can tell by the shitty grammar and that it's an apparent Rance reference.

Of course I'm speaking for myself lol. I read the original and am interested in new scenes from AA edition which isn't avaible on pc, that's all.

>>15088224
More likely I would make better sales if it was translated to french because seems that Moenovel released it for "12 year old French girls who like anime".

While it's a pretty idiotic post, he is right about one thing: Most people on Steam own way too many games. I personally have over 600. There's a lot of games to play if you're into more than just VNs.

I love time-loop stuff and I wanted to see what kind of shit author would come up with next time.
And then bakumatsu part of FD wasn't *that* bad, except ending.

>>15087974
>if it were really as bad as described there, it wouldn't be rated so highly
You can check reviews on EGS yourself, nobody denies that last two chapters of original game were complete shit, with cheap and lame way to wrap up everything while ruining all ideas that were presented in previous chapters. I'm pretty sure that when you guys see these fucking skeletons popping out of nowhere and Big Bad being revealed, you will agree with me.
Sure it had some cool scenes here and there, but in the end they didn't even matter, you cannot just rate it 10/10 for mmmmuh bushido and yamato spirit.

>>15088446
If nobody denies that then why did they rate it so highly? What is their reasoning?

>>15088459
Basically boils down to "1-3 were so good that 4-5 being shit doesn't matter for me" in every review.

People who back this kickstarter are going to get suprised when they receive their game.

>>15088498
What is even the logic in doing this version? What do they expect people will do?

>>15088481
No, Umineko was the opposite. 6, 7 and 8 were so shit that nobody cared how good the first 5 chapters were anymore and it got bombed hard on EGS.

>>15087466
>Umineko - Picked up

they probably think it's cheaper to port the mobage version

No, they have no fucking clue how Lose deal happened.
Lose contacted several localization companies before maitetsu release, looking for prompt overseas release on steam, expecting to be next nekopara. dovac was the only one who agreed to their terms, he didn't even need to "sell" them anything.

>>15088531
Just because you can't read them doesn't mean I can't, EOP.

>>15088262
>While it's a pretty idiotic post

Having made the post, I disagree.

People are just in general illiterate and put their own twist on things. My post is just talking about how Gahkthun separates itself from for example Clannad in that it boosts the tolerance of adult content on Steam. That value is very important for all of us who want less censorship. In the future people will say "Oh so having sex is OK on steam, then maybe we don't have to censor these panties".

Meanwhile it seems like some choose to read value as "reason to buy", rather than my intended "the benefits of people buying it".

>>15088611
"Oh, it sold only 500 copies, must be westerner's hate for porn, we must censor our game harder to not suffer same fate".

>>15088604
It's good considering the genre and price of the game. They have pretty low expectations for sales so this much in a week basically blew them away.

>>15088603
Stop shitposting EOP, nobody cares. Get back on topic or get out.

>>15088621
Why do people make retarded posts like this?

>>15088641
You should know the best that the gig is up.

>>15088653
You should get a life.

>>15088611
It's only natural people thought you meant value as "reason to buy". I myself thought you meant that s well before you said this. Next time, at least use a better choice of words so your intentions aren't misinterpreted.

>>15087881
It could be anything. Who knows, it could even be Baldr Sky, Muramasa or Dies. He's crazy enough to do a game he hates, so it could even be Saihate no Ima.

>>15088967
It would certainly be delish to see something hyped among EOPry translated by him.

>>15087649
Of course Haruka's still doing well a month later, since MG hasn't released any other nukige in that time. People on the fence are likely starting to pick it up, because no other nukige is slated for release in the immediate future.

Gahtkhun is now on bottom of page 16 of top sellers after few days of page 8.
Hard to believe, but it managed to do worse than Tokyo Babel.

Meanwhile Starlight Vega, shitty OELVN released day before Gahtkhun, is still on steam store front page.

>>15089083
Well it's not the initial release and most of people probably already bought it from mangagamer website.

I really don't see that happening. I could also see it getting removed from Steam if someone manages to patch it.

The power of yuri. The Shadows of Pygmalion might actually end up a hit.

>>15088195
This might've been for the best actually. If people don't want to use their keys for themselves, then they might give them to people who want them or sell them at a lower price. Given how Gahkthun's sales on Steam haven't been very good so far, it might be better if the keys don't come out for a few more days.

How is that hard to believe? Half of the people interested in buying already bought it, so there's no way it was going to get a good initial rush.

The translator himself says that's what he's doing. His attitude is, take it or leave it.

>>15089889
Yeah, just some speculation. From his previous works I believe he needs a good hacker/does it himself. He might be doing something easy this time.. Most likely he does commission TLs for no-name eroge/vns(Hanahira). Who knows, maybe the dev hired him to do it to promote sales. Only thing I could say right now, he's the last ray of light we've got right now. We already know Aroduc is translating something that you'll pick up for a few hours then drop, as usual.

Anyone knows what Moogy's secret project is?

The character that dumbasses on /a/ always bring up isn't in Seinarukana at all. She's mentioned in one line of one ending, and gets about two sentences in later supplemental materials saying that her power is that she automatically gets whatever she wants.

Yes, please. I don't see anything weird.

>>15093099
Have you looked well enough?

>Past tense in the whole thing.
Except in Japanese it's not. Overall the English feels super stiff in the video.

>The moon was shining bright.
Why not just "full moon"? Then follow with the next sentence and it flows well.

>concrete building was enshrined
This is 鎮座 put into Google Translate. You'll get "enshrined". Of course "enshrined" isn't anything you say about a school building. In reality the second meaning from the dictionary applies in this case.
https://kotobank.jp/word/鎮座-569939
The translator should have stopped upon seeing "enshrined" describing a school building, realizing something is amiss and use a Japanese dictionary.

>Yaesaka Academy
First, 県立 = "prefectural" is omitted from the translation. Also, from the video you can see they're using the original 1997 release of Atlach-Nacha (version 1.05). In the original release it's a high-school, not academy. This was later censored in the 2000 re-release (version 1.10). When translating from original, they should preserve the brash open immorality. It's one of the things people like about Atlach-Nacha after all.

>one of many identical schools
ありふれた isn't "identical". "Identical" implies the schools everywhere are built exactly the same. That's not the case, ありふれた just says there's nothing special about this one.

>This is a good spot. It looks fun.
A school isn't "a spot". "Place" is more like it. "It looks fun" sounds weird when a previous line extablishes it's a bland-looking school. But more importantly it's wrong. 楽しめそう refers to Hatsune's actions. "I can enjoy myself here". This also solves the weirdness, cause it isn't weird for Hatsune to say she'll enjoy her stay at a bland school, if anything it forebodes the depravities to come.

>And this territory
A "territory" is "an area of land under the jurisdiction of a ruler or state". That's not what Hatsune talks about here. She simply talks about the place. "And this land..." works better and is a better translation for 土地 too.

>the night air
Why is ぬるい omitted?

I think you're all getting a bit too worked up about a one off screenshot posted years ago to mess with the Alicesoft general on /vg/

>>15093179
Um, unifying the tenses (either to past or to present) is pretty much the first thing you learn when translating from Japanese into English.

Most other points seem more or less legit, though I don't get why'd you want to keep prefectural when it doesn't mean anything in English.

>>15093213
>I don't get why'd you want to keep prefectural when it doesn't mean anything in English.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefectures_of_Japan

>>15093216
I'm glad you managed to figure out what prefectures are, but that doesn't change the fact that calling a school prefectural doesn't mean anything in English.

Unless you care to explain how prefectural schools are different from public schools.

>>15093232
"Prefectural" in English means "established and governed by the local prefectue [in Japan]".

If you ever come to Japan, you'll see various institutions have prefixed that describe who established and governs them.
私立
村立
市立
県立
国立
etc.

This is all relevant information conveyed in Japanese that goes beyond just private vs. public.

>Unfortunately, I do not know of a good program to do this with, nor do I have instructions on how to get it done - LQT

1 - Acquire VNR (And get customize it up so it's not a pain in the ass in settings).
2 - Run the modified Junketsu Megami with VNR.
3 - Go into the pop up menu on the left of the game's window and click "menu" then "text settings".
4 - Check the box "Insert spaces between words" on and hit "Save" at the top left.


Probably want to turn on "hentai translation" and turn off EDICT as well so you don't get VNR trying to parse english over the text. Probably also change the font type too. Seems VNR thinks the english in the game's engine is japanese so it uses a rough japanese font with english characters instead of a softer looking one like the default DFGirl for english. That might just be the engine in general though. I would figure that would fall under 1's stuff. Just stuff you figure out fiddling around with in preferences.

>>15095351
Wasn't the original delay due to MG's sudden release?

>>15095397
That was a tinfoil hat theory. The reason is that the Japanese side hasn't finished programming it yet. Or dovac got scared off by Danganronpa 2 and Corpse Party.

Your first two points can be ignored. Japanese tenses are very fluid, and your point about the moon is a question of style.

3rd, 4th, 5th points looks valid.

Half of your 6th point could be ignored. A school can be a 'spot' depending on context, and you'd know that if you knew the meaning of 'spot'. The other half is valid.

7th point - Land is almost as bad as territory. If you're talking about a small area, go with 'area' or 'place',

8th point is valid.

>>15095577
Regardless, the important part is that this translation is seriously flawed. That's all from a single screen of text.

Hey MG, how come Gahkthun doesn't show up on ESRB's website? Usually this info leaks ahead of time of a game's release.

>>15095627
Shut up dovac.

>>15095577
"Spot" feels like it describes a smaller, more specific place. The storage room in the back of the school where Kanako gets raped is a spot. But yeah, it depends on the percieved scale. If Hatsune looked at the city map and pointed to the school on it, "spot" would feel okay. But that's what happens in the game.

土地 is "land" though. And the feelings of nostalgia Hatsune speaks of are often connected to the nuance of "clay" you can see in 土地. "Area" would be fine, "place" not, cause "place" now means the school and Hatsune that slept for ages isn't nostalgic about the school.

>>15095627

People not interested in loli will assume that's what it's about and avoid it, while people interested in loli know there's no ero, so they'll most likely just pass on it. It's not about the actual content of the game. Hard to break misconceptions, which is why Tokyo Babel isn't selling well.

While I'm not denying the greed (DLC galleries, really?) nor will I be backing, 140k is tiny in the grand scheme of things. I mean that's what, a years wages for 4-5 staff? How many people and how much time does it take to pull off a successful kickstarter with rewards? I'm not sure FW/Akabei would actually end up with much profit after it's all said and done. Plus, after rewards they'll only really get to use 2/3rds of the funds so it's worse than that. It's amazing to me companies can make things work on such low budgets.

>>15099024
DLC is very easy to pirate if you have the base game on steam

>>15099182
A lot of that 140k is going towards fulfilling rewards anyway.

>>15099187
Something that's in every VN and in the JP version of the game shouldn't need to be pirated.
It's completely asinine that they're doing this.

>>15099195
I completely agree, I just thought it was something worth pointing out. I would never buy this VN in the first place because of it.

>>15099182
>I mean that's what, a years wages for 4-5 staff?

You're kidding yourself if you think it's not just going to be contract translators. Way the math works out it looks like 5cpc. Guess FW hasn't figured out they can jew translators yet.

Kickstarters are just pure profit. You have one guy who writes stuff on a kickstarter page, and then you get thousands of dollars. Meanwhile a normal company would just translate the games and put them up for sale.

It is kind of interesting that they are pricing the game at 20 dollars. Though I bet there is value in getting cash before delivering a product, as well as skipping the 30% steam fee and 10% new release discount.

Between splitting up the game for Steam and the low price, pretty sure Frontwing just took the lesson about cheap titles selling ridiculously well on Stream and figured it applied everywhere. That or it is to prepare for a cheapish Steam release without having backers yell at them with "why did I pay more on Kickstarter".

Sekai Project's Q&A is tonight, sure they'll have fun coming up with non-answers considering half the questions in their thread for it are asking about the 18+ version of the titles they've licensed.

>>15099400
I meant that even if 100% of the 140k is profit, it's really not that much overall. I guess Japanese devs have learned to create on a shoestring budget like anime studios have.

>>15099653
Don't forget that this is just for creating it. They get extra for selling afterward.

The guy that looks like he's dying

>>15099653
Well, it's basically pure profit. It's already translated so they don't really need to do any work, it'll probably take more effort for them to port some of the all-ages release stuff and gut out the gallery than it will be for them to do anything else. And then sales generated beyond this will be pure profit as well since I doubt the translator will get a cut of each sale.
It's basically an easy way for them to make some money on the side, and if it fails they don't lose anything since they don't even need to pretend to be editing the fan TL until after the campaign ends. But yeah, their fund goal is pretty low, that's barely more than my annual salary.

I asked them. But they answered me with a "soon tm"

>>15099633
Missed the beginning and a couple short segments

Root Double - "we're working on it, it's complicated, updates soon"
No G-Senjou 18+ - Blame Akabei Soft2, they've asked with no luck
WagaHigh - Seems there should be a 18+ version if I heard correctly
Chrono Clock - about 10% done, had engine problems
Need lots of approval for Frontwing stuff
Tenshin Ranman - 16% done, 18+ maybe
Gradually loosening Steam restrictions, Steam was initially concerned about Sakura Spirit, now not so much
G-Senjou voice + unvoiced release, blame Akabei Soft2, they rather not do that, though it probably help ship units

Maitetsu: +18 news in AX

>Root Double - "we're working on it, it's complicated, updates soon"

This better not be some marketing ploy to delay delay delay and jump on zero escape hype

>>15100180
They put it up on Youtube.

>>15100421
That's... a pretty good idea, actually.

Provisional rating maybe? The release date is still decently far off.

How?

Gahkthun managed to hit about half the peak concurrent users of tokyo babel before the steam keys went out. Given it probably has about 700 or so mangagamer sales, I wonder which one is ahead at this point. Seems like it'd be a pretty close running.

Why the hell is Kouryuu's post on steam saying Gahkthun is drawing from Lovecraft mythos? Last time I checked it wasn't Demonbane.

>>15101434
Well if you read it you'll see why

>>15100673
Not really a transcript, as some of the questions they answered in far more detail and it's missing things which were asked during the Stream, most noticeably the Root Double stuff.

>>15101447
I read both Lovecraft and Gahkthun, and I don't remember lightning gods fighting Cthulhu in either.

>>15101586
Did you forget who the big bad in Gahkthun was?

>>15100188
Why are you guys hoping for news about the adult version? It's utterly obvious they won't release it and even if they do, expect some scenes to be removed.

Did you forget about Hoshimeno already? Not a word about a adult version until now.

>>15087466
>Grisaia trilogy - 2nd title 100% translated, 3rd 20% translated
Any idea on estimated time of release for Meikyuu?

Is there any chance of Fate (Realta Nua of course) getting an official translation?
If so, any chance it would actually be a decent translation?

>>15087969
I honestly don't really enjoy h-scenes much
There are doujins and hentai for that, and I can seek out stuff that tailors my tastes better. I don't read VN for h-scenes.

>>15102111
That was one of two posts summarizing the stream of the Q&A, not an expectation that anything will come out of it. They answer the question at 12:40 in the stream and they answer that they'll have news at AX and they are "just working out the logistics" and the intent is to "bring it over at best they can". Even if they are lying through their teeth, that quick summary was an accurate representation of the answer they gave.

>>15102244
I'd expect one of the more mainstream console localization companies to end up with F/SN eventually.

>>15102438
I can see Xseed actually attempting it, but they wouldn't bother unless sales are guaranteed. The script is so large that they'd need to invest quite a lot of time into the translation, and I think Takajun's TL is notorious enough to where if a real publisher ever picked up the rights for the Vita version they'd want to do a retranslation.
Fate is one VN that is guaranteed to sell quite well if it ever gets licensed, but it's still a daunting undertaking for many Western publishers, even the ones that have a record of translating otomege. Possibly if Extella sells well, or around its release, then we'll see something about Fate from a regular console publisher.

>>15102456
I really want to see Fate get an actual retranslation by someone with skill

>>15102456
It's very unlikely.
