Due to the recent bundle, it would appear that attempting to track Rance orders any further will be futile.
That said, over the course of its preorder window, there was a total of 2147 orders. Throughout the preorder window, barring a short period where himawari overtook it, it has maintained the number one spot on the sales chart.

If we are to give rance 25% of the orders placed in this period, we would end up with 536 orders, which is the most successful preorder window in my memory. One could also argue that perhaps 25% is too conservative, which would increase the number even further. Whatever portion you deem suitable, it would certainly appear to be a strong start.

It already has over $100k and it hasn't even hit the last 48 hour pledge rush. And they plan to make announcements to help boost pledges soon too. It will at least make the base goal.

They just like her design and know she's a popular character. They assume she'll be great and should have her own route. But they don't know the story or what she's like, so they're basically asking for something that wouldn't fit into the story at all. And that's ignoring that Dies was completed years ago and any addition would be super expensive to make and they'd never reach the stretch goal for such extra content anyway.

>>
>>16311651
Yea, I don't understand those PR people. Let's try and get people to pledge on this game by spoiling it and talking about all the characters ahead of time.

And then combine it with rewards that only people who have played the game would be interested in since it is just all game event references.

It looks like this could probably reach at least 500k with decent rewards.
>>
>>16311697
The backers have been asking for waifu rewards and the PR responded that they're looking into it. Hopefully they'll get some.

But talking about character is important so that people get an idea of who to be hyped for and what characters they'd want a tapestry of.
>>
>>16311709
It's stupid to sell (and buy) character merchandise before people have a chance to familiarize themselves with the character and what they do in the story.

But Japanese eroge industry is full of this. August was selling merch with SenMomo girls ages before the game came out. I wonder how people who bought Hotori's stuff felt when the game came out and she was the most pointless generic character.
>>
>>16311653
>VI is good
I take it most Rance fans aren't actual gamers. Rance is porn with extra steps. That's all it is. If you've played an RPG before, Rance VI will seem pretty fucking awful to you. Even NES RPGs have more in-depth mechanics.
>>
>>16311764
This is not an action game, RPGs don't really need particularly deep mechanics.
>>
>>16311783
Isn't it the other way around?
I mean who the fuck plays Rance games for the gameplay, that's stupid.
>>
>>16311783
That's not an excuse for a game that came out in 2004. I can't even begin to understand why weeb e-celebs consider Rance VI one of the best JRPGs of all time. It's barely a game at all.
>>
>>16311181
I really wish that we'll one day get to see Bunny Black 3 in English.

Because that's why people play Rance. Anyone who's ever played a classic JRPG in their life will tell you that the gameplay and progression systems in Rance VI are dogshit. Even Compile Heart shits out better games than Alicesoft.

http://www.strawpoll.me/11956104

Very important poll!
Best visual novel of 2016

What's wrong with Himawari?
Aqua routes in 2048 and 2050 easily make up for everything else and it's overall better than most games out there.

Sup, 11 Eyes team. I have a game backlog so I can't comment on the quality of your work yet but thanks for the effort.
>>
>>16313247
>Compile Heart
The fuck are you talking about. I love nep about as much as the next guy but the first three games were dogshit. Even the rebirth games have progression problems. There is always a way to break the game and around the half way port you will never feel threatened by any boss.
>>
>>16313349
>Aqua routes in 2048 and 2050 easily make up for everything else
They really don't, especially since 2048 suffers from many of the same issues as the rest of the title.

>it's overall better than most games out there.
Perhaps if you like melodrama and "realistic" scenarios. It does a lot of interesting things but it makes a ton of mistakes. One of its routes is basically incomplete (Aries), another one is the last route but it doesn't deliver nearly as well as the previous route. To me, Himawari is just slightly above average, I'm not even sure I'd recommend it to somebody.
I hated Muv-Luv but I think even Alternative is better than it, and Alternative is probably one of the worst paced VNs out there.
>>
>>16313588
I fucking hate those games, but at least they're actual games, unlike Rance. Give me raw text or GTFO. Porn with extra steps is pointless. I could just be playing a quality RPG, and in-between sessions, browse porn while listen to the East German national anthem instead of playing this shit.
>>
>>16313678

>they're actual games, unlike Rance

So you're saying Rance has artificial gameplay?
>>
>>16313678
What do you mean? I thought gameplay in Sengoku was pretty good, I know Rance 6 has different gameplay but is it bad?
>>
>>16313678
It might help if you give reasons why you think the gameplay and progression is so bad, otherwise you just come off as a pretentious prick, Anon.

I can't stop playing Rance VI, the gameplay is kind of grindy and you can tell it's an old game, but it's still loads of fun.

Dies Irae is going to have the Stretch Goals ready this week.

Not bad if it releases in the US that would be amazing as well. Especially on Steam.

So does anyone know when the Steam release of Muv Luv Alternative is coming out?
>>
>>16316438
They said retranslating it was taking longer than expected.
>>
>>16316438
The better question is when someone finally going to upload torrent of Steam Muv-Luv?

>>16316797
It will be upload just after the torrent for LoveKami or World End Economica 3; next year.
>>
>>16316820
Seems like anyone who interested in the game backed it in the first day. They are going to have a hard time to attract any more backers.
>>
>>16316926
Doesn't help they picked the worst month of the year to put it on Kickstarter, since lots of people will be short on cash for Christmas and the Steam sales.
There will probably still be a spike in people contributing at the end like usual which means it might be funded but the stretch goals are very unlikely to be met at this rate.
>>
>>16316820
The $0 days are a kicktraq glitch. Outside of that it's a normal Kickstarter pattern.
>>16316926
It's amazing how we get these people during every single Kickstarter who still haven't learned how they trend.

Can't beat the original. That's just my opinion because it was translated by Elder God Translator Phar.

>>16316926
They have enough people to easily fund the KS.The higher tiers are straight up garbage. If they made them more enticing the KS would have already been funded by now. Unlike Muv Luv or any really successful VN KS there is no incentive to go for the higher tiers.

DI KS updated with info about the stretch goals. None of them seem too thrilling, and there's nothing about the fandisc or the extra route.

>>16318921
The new stretch goals seem much worse than the ones shown in the prefundia.

Bumping up the Vita and visual fan books goals and making them only available at higher tiers seems like it could backfire. Not to mention the Visual fan book is only for Volume 1 and not the entire thing now. Oh, and they dropped Kaziklu Bey as a possibility. They original story must've been deemed as too much money to do, so I kind of understand that one, but the other things are just bad.
>>
>>16318921
What a fucking joke. I cannot believe how halfassed this whole kickstarter is. Vita for 100$? No addons and new rewards? Christ.
>>
>>16318952
>So not only did you keep the insane price for the Vita version, but increased it by $50,000 and made it exclusive to those putting down only $100+?
>Wow. I can't believe I wasted my time supporting this KS. Time to back out -- this is too much of a scam.

I don't know about dropping it all together.
>>
>>16318995
They must've thought people who wanted the artbook were really diehard about it to make it the first goal. $40k to print a 16 page booklet seems high to me though. And then there's the Vita goal, which is at least $10k more expensive than it was in the prefundia, since it was originally only $40k above the base goal. The same goes for visual fan book. For some reason it now costs $10k more than it did in the prefundia, because the gap between it and the Vita version in the prefundia was only $40k as well.
>>
>>16319011
Considering how they did the other goals, there's basically a 0% chance of hitting the goal for it, which is very disappointing. And while I like the thought of possible new Reinhard content, most people were asking for new Rusalka content and are bound to be upset by more content focusing on male characters.
>>
>>16318995
They will make the goal but no other KS starter deserved to fail more then this DS KS. The people who are running it are freaking morons.
>>
>>16318921
>We're missing content at higher tiers. I know, lets make all the goals only available at certain tiers, so we don't have to add actual new rewards.
>>
Guys I'm literally shaking...What if the Dies Irae kickstarter fails?
>>
>>16319027
Yeah, it's really poorly managed. Aside from the underwhelming rewards and stretch goals, I just can't understand why they thought it was a good idea to launch it one week before Christmas. It's probably the worst possible time to launch a Kickstarter
>>
>>16319117
It sadly has a good chance of just barely scraping by if they actually add the waifu items people have been asking for. That plus the final 48 hour rush could very well cause them to hit the base goal.
>>
>>16319124
It's still pretty unlikely that they don't reach 160k.
>>
>>16319144
The last 48 hours you can see pledges in the tens of thousands of dollars. Even if they fanbase isn't happy about how the kickstarter was run, they still want Dies, so they'll most likely get the minimum needed for it to succeed.
>>
How well would a properly managed Dies Irae KS have done?
>>
>>16319160
I would say at least $100k higher than where it's going to end at.
>>
I just have to think this whole Kickstarter is just a example of a Japanese company being arrogant, thinking that they can just throw their shit up and money will just magically appear. That or they are utterly clueless of how successful kickstarters work.
>>
>>16319200
The odd thing is that they had a very successful anime kickstarter for Dies already. The PR team they got for Dies is terrible though and who knows what they're advising Light to do. The stretch goals getting worse than the Prefundia is very odd, especially how they needed good ones to boost a stalling project.
>>
>>16319200
>thinking that they can just throw their shit up and money will just magically appear
The Japanese crowdfunding for the Dies anime got ¥96 million, so it's possible that they thought they could get the same success here. The problem is that Dies isn't nearly as popular in the west as in Japan
>>
>>16312537
Source? It might be something different, but I remember that being talked about here sometime ago and what happened was: Some guy tried to bash Astro, but they took a translation some guy named Mephisto did and thought it was his. As far as I know, this was actually proven to be true by a pastebin that got dug up.

Yeah, here is the post. http://4archive.org/board/jp/thread/14418191#p14440848

It's starting to get pathetic how this is already the umpteenth time someone felt the need to dig up the exact same thing from /years/ ago in an attempt to grasp at straws for any dirt they can get. I know the guy, and Astro is a perfectly capable translator. I was around when somebody tried to argue that "a worker who is employed by [company]" is /completely/ different from "a worker who works at [company]" in Astro's TL, and argued that his interpretation was completely wrong.
>>
Google ate your translation.
>>
>>16319310
Hello Astro

>>16319011
I wonder if they'll increase the goal for the Kaziklu Bey translation as well. I was hoping they would reach it, but at this rate it seems very unlikely

This is actually a good post.
I think it's important to learn to look at a translation as a whole instead of just a couple lines.
Every translator makes mistakes sometimes, even ones fluent in the language.
Translating can be tricky and even a slight error can be significant, and yet one has to translate tens of thousands of lines per a single VN.
I know it sucks to read a translation and for it to have occasional errors but that's just life, mistakes happen and there's not enough translations to afford TLC for every line of every project.
Of course if a game has a ton of errors in high density and this is demonstrated like with Aokana then yeah, have at it, but the tendency to see one error and go ballistic is harmful.
>>
>>16319321
Honestly the KS is done at this point
>>
>>16319332
People feel like they're contributing to "something" when bashing on a translation, when obviously this is not the case. They think undermining someone else makes themselves better. It's what kids do in middle school all the time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Nobody-other than other kids-listen to them though, so it's oh well

What has Astro translated to where he considers himself a """"""professional""""""?
>>
>>16319332
What makes it more hilarious is that 4chan's definition of "incorrect translation" is something that's not translated word-for-word like Google Translate. The irony that the very people who bash on translations also indirectly advocate machine translations. In fact, most of the really opiniated people here who don't even know Japanese.

Please stop talking about translating if you don't know how it works, it's just embarrassing
>>

Why don't you ask him yourself? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It's not like there's a list of who has worked on what project.

>>16319365

I don't know what he's worked on either outside of fanlations tbqh, but to be fair, some people just don't like to put their names on certain projects like nukige, or can't because their contract doesn't allow it. If we're to get into the technical definition here, you become a professional when people start wanting to pay for the work you do.

Just feels like if you're going to flaunt being a professional you would have a body of work to back up the claim or else it feels like you're blowing hot air.

Why are you so hung up over one word, and why do you care what he calls himself? That's not even the point of his post. He pointed out glaring errors and that's that. He didn't write an essay to tell you that he's a professional translator

People call themselves translators without knowing Japanese as illustrated in his post, so you are barking at the wrong guy imho.
>>
>>16319405
Being professional doesn't mean shit in the VN business anyways because like >>16319394 said all it comes down to is being paid and Sekai Project has translators you could by technicality say are professionals but at the same time are terrible. It's pointless really.

Some of Sekai's translators are pretty terrible, but to their credit, some of them aren't. MG is a lot more consistent with quality so I assume they have a harder test

And for u retards think a 1 cour shitty anime adaption will change anything, get real. It will end up like demonbane and rewrite in the west, with other words flopping in views and sales.

Hard to say. All 3 are overhyped and overrated by same small clique of edgy chuunilovers, and none of these games made significant impact on me.
WA2 or Eustia would do 10x better than any of these 3.

>>
>>16320127
I'm obviously not speaking for him, but both Dies irae and Baldr Sky are primarily entertainment, not literature. Well, you could make a case for Dies irae being literature due to the depth of its dialogue and characters, but what it first and foremost is, is entertainment - that's why it's a battle royale. Anyway, what I want to convey here is, it's not unfeasible for either of those two works to not impact someone greatly, as they're mainly entertainment. Though I think Dies would be an enriching experience for many, and I myself received a significant impact from it..
>>
>dies irae is dead

And nothing of value was lost. Bring on the moege revolution.
>>
>>16320127
No, that's because chuuni battles are fucking boring, and Masada makes them waaaaay longer than they should be.
Baldr Sky is not any better, its literally deus ex machina repeated like 20 times, FUCKING FLASHBACKS HOLY FUCK I HATE THESE FLASHBACKS PLEASE STOP ALREADY, Kou pretends to be hard-boiled ruthless mercenary but actually acts like teenager with hormonal problems, Chinatsu is most retarded heroine ever, Gilbert is downgraded clone of Genha. Gregory is the only well-done character in entire game.
And of course "hey, I'm gonna write kendo in air with mechas and snobby language and then bore the fuck out of reader with made-up technobabble of said air-kendo", I lasted only 3 battle sequences. It would be probably very cool game if battles were summaried to 100 lines each, with very cool and unique protagonist and deep world, but unfortunately its all about "I have 3m/s more speed than you and more calories, die!".

>>16320142
Like you moege weebs don't have enough titles to choose from

>>16320147
>Masada makes them waaaaay longer than they should be.
Did you even read Dies irae?
The battles are really short. Pretty much every battle I'm surprised it ended so quickly. Most battles even have two going on at once with perspective switching between them, and those are over quickly too.
>>
>>16320142
>dies irae is dead
I wish. The Dies Irae circlejerk has tired me out, just fail or succeed already so we can move on to something interesting (aka, not chuunige.)

Compare them to something like Alicematic instead and you will see why I'm complaining.

Nothing makes my cock harder than the thought of a bunch translators being forced to translate moege because the shit they want to translate isn't viable.

They're mad about the stretch goals, I think. Way too fucking high and unrealistic for a relatively unknown chuunige (In the West), even after all the hyping by high profile translators it just didn't do as well as expected.

That's not VN related in the slightest, though. It's an off-topic thread that doesn't pertain to anything within the community. /vn/ clears several thousands posts every week. Fuwanovel has a few hundred at most in two. Reddit is also more active than Fuwanovel.

IP count means nothing. And I've only seen it go that high after day-long threads.

I mean, my dynamic IP must at least put 20 different IPs in the counter for /vn/, not to mention I sometimes phone post on there as well, which is another IP count too. And I'm just one person.

After you've been in /vn/ for a very long time it's extremely easy to recognize regulars based on filenames, types of shitpostings, etc. so while I'm not completely sure of a number of regulars, I've never felt like it has surpassed 30-40 people.

Even without the good PR, Muv Luv had a huge western fanbase.

The only thing Dies Irae had was hype from e-celebs. The average backer had no idea if it was great or not, and they probably didn't have any peers to explain why it was good.

In contrast, every (non-nukige) VN fan knows about Muv Luv and has either played it or knows some guy on the internet who has. They didn't have to take e-celeb's words for granted even if they never pirated the game. They could easily ask someone who has. The good PR of Muv Luv simply amplified this advantage, well, that and advertising from ANN.

>The only thing Dies Irae had was hype from e-celebs.
You say e-celebs but what's closer to reality is everyone. That is, the majority of people who read Dies irae really like it and talk about how much they like it. Sure, it's not on the same level as a released western translation, but it's not just Moogy and friends saying "hey dies is good" - it's everyone who reads it just about.
>>
>>16321007
Both interject themselves into every visual novel community on the internet and attempt establishing dominance and relevance, so you've likely encountered them in one way or another. The latter is a blogger who's primarily known here for getting banned from MG's forums and then taking to Twitter, reddit, /jp/, Fuwanovel and his shitty little blog viewed by 10 people to publicly boycott them, fully believing this would greatly affect them somehow.
>>

He's not one of the people running the kickstarter.


>>16320416
They seem to be ignoring the negative comments.
>>
>>16320476
The higher tier rewards for Dies are just bad. And now you have unrealisticly high stretch goals based on how the campaign has done so far. And even if they hit the goals, the Vita version and visual fan book are now locked behind higher tiers. And the visual fanbook goal is now only Volume 1 instead of complete. The entire thing is a joke.

>>16320494
The Dies campaign has had terrible PR and bad rewards the entire campaign.

He wants it to fail so it can get a proper relaunch like Sharin no Kuni got. That's not really the same thing.

This image concerned me when I saw it. Dies irae doesn't have narration like this - that is, Ren doesn't voice the narration or have his name on it like this. So there's 2 possible things here:
1) The game is being translated with the unspoken narration being changed to spoken narration so it can be in present tense rather than past tense.
2) This is a mock up and not representative of what will be in-game
First possibility is kind of unsettling, it would be awkward I imagine to have unspoken narration turned into "spoken" narration all the time.
>>
>>16321346
Not the first time Ludo has done the first one.
>>
>>16321346
Yeah it's a mock up and apparently light told translators that it will not be used publicly.

Is there a bigger joke than dies irea kick starter?

Inb4 sekai, watching this trainwreck is satisfying.
>>
>>16321368
The thing is the only lines are perfectly fine and as presented in game, so it's somewhat doubtful that just one would be done weird.
>>16321366
I gotta say, Dies irae English is gonna read weirdly if the narration is changed to be like that. Maybe not for the worse, but still.
>>
>>16321249
Even if it does cause them to give up, Light needs some humble pie thrown in their face.

The fact that pledges are actually decreasing rather than simply being slow probably means the KS won't make it. 60 or so percent at the halfway point isn't a good sign.
>>
>>16320173
Now that Reading Steiner unpledged and is taking himself out of the project. I am ready to pledge more money than he did. :) Now we have more competent translators and will not need to worry about it being shit. Light will kick him off for this childish tangent.

Jast got the person who did the initial rundown on the problems with the Flowers trial to translate the 2nd volume.
>>
>>16323112
Who, BDH? Not surprising. He fixed up Moogy's catastrophe with Sumaga, so he's already done some work for JAST. He's Makoto-approved. Not to mention he wanted to translate Flowers in the first place since I think he's a yurishitter.

Dude is an SJW cunt, but he's a pretty good translator. Kind of slow, though. But I suppose that speed also reflects the quality of the translation. I don't think I can recall a single typo in FM (there probably is at least one, though), and, after having read some of MG's more recent typo-heavy releases, I can appreciate that a bit more.

He made himself out to know Japanese and know how to translate it. I am saying he is incompetent simply because he has never proven himself a professional translator. I am only saying i am pledging more and that it was good riddance to him for being unprofessional and poor at it. I do not need to translate it because i never said i was a professional translator in the first place like Ludo did.

what is there to compare? Nekopara has that "I don't really like VN but when I do they have kawai cat girls" market down pat. It does not hurt that popular anime youtubers like Lost Pause are huge fans of it. Nekopara shits out money right now.
>>
>>16328240
>youtubers like Lost Pause
Youtubes e-celeb's are irrelevant, what matter is that Nekaopara is popular.
>>
>>16328281
And it's popular because of e-celebs, just like Sakura Shit.

People who want the Vita version also have to pledge at least $100 even if it's all they want, digital only, and they put a 16 booklet as a goal ahead of the Vita goal. The booklet was originally intended as a reward that was changed into a goal, so you can see why Vita fans were pissed when the stretch goals were announced.

Which were not in the survey because nobody gave a fuck about them. The survey is stupid, it's like they are teasing us and it's completely irrelevant since it's the staff and mostly translators who decide the futur licenses. Funny when you know that most of the staff have shitaste.
>>
>>16328678

Ozmafia was licensed before the survey was a thing and in response to people requesting it on the forum.

>>16328165
>Already at $183,000
Damn, I thought it would barely hit 200k. Dies is at 109k now, it might make it.
>>
>>16328281
You are a fucking idiot if you think Youtubers with 900k+ subs and 100s of thousands views can't influence popularity. Hell, his 1st Nekopara lets play had 508k views.
>>
>>16326792
Sweet. Thanks.
>>
>>16328568
i doubt they get a big cut

unless Sayori is an idiot she and her company probably renegotiated on Nekopara hard and i'd bet they're getting a large majority of that money
>>
>>16328165
214k vs 109k. Nekopara confirmed for ultimate kamige.

Now that MG has just released a bunch of games, a new upcoming games poll.

Alright, I don't hate Nekopara at all, but the thought of somebody currently throwing $10,000 at the highest tier and two people currently throwing $9,000 at the second highest tier makes me physically ill. Who has that much disposable income to throw it at a fucking anime OVA?

Well, Jast bundle just went live. The standouts are Yumina The Eternal, Kana Okaeri, and Starless

So I just noticed MoeNovel popped back up out of nowhere.

Have they learned their lesson? Did they do a good job with the translation this time? Spare me your opinion of the game's quality.

Hopefully anyone but SP

>>16331663
Is it using the fan TL?
https://silentsummertl.wordpress.com/harukuru/
Sounds like a Sekai Project pick up.
>>
>>16331687
That fanTL doesn't seem like it was going anywhere, but maybe.
>>
>>16331663
It says that it's an all-ages version though.

Sounds like SP.
>>
>>16331700
No, it says "English version and all-ages version of game are planned". Strictly speaking, it didn't say that english version would be all-ages.
>>
>>16331697
8 months ago they already had the harem route complete and 25% of the common route done. They haven't updated since then, but it could've been an official pick up that caused them to go silent.
>>
>>16331704
If they're bothering with an English release you can bet they plan to put it on Steam.
>>
>>16331704
You're right, I didn't see the "and" on the first glance.

So it's still up in the air.
>>
>>16331663
What the fuck is so special about this game?
>>
>>16331729
Genre shift. It starts out like a standard moege, but then it takes an entirely different turn.

>>16331747
>>16331748
Ah, like Re:Zero.

>>16331748

What the fuck, spoiler this.

>>16331651
They're taking a page out of Sekai's book and doing an OELVN.

It makes me feel ill that Nekopara even was funded in 45 minutes. Truly we are still in the age of casuals still that will throw their money at generic cat girls in order to prove that are "true Otaku desu!" Instead of good storylines like Dies Irae.

Yes I know it's winter and it came out of nowhere and everyone is bitching to restart the campaign. But if this fails does anyone truly think they will restart the Dies Irae Campaign again? I can only hope that it does but I hope it passes or gets close to the goal so that way we can have a sharin on our hands and launch with everything setup again.

Denpa sent out a preview of 2017 email, which gave a release window for a few titles.

Chrono Clock- "ChronoClock will be released in early 2017"

Grisaia- "The 18+ version of The Labyrinth of Grisaia has seen some delay, unfortunately. However, it'll finally be released early 2017, so please look forward to it! Thank you for your patience."

Ne No Kami Part 2- General 2017 release
Boku to Koisuru Ponkotsu Akuma - General 2017 release

SakuSaku- "Expect to see Koi ga Saku Koro Sakura Doki released in Spring 2017"

Nekopara vol 3- "NEKOPARA Vol. 3 will be releasing on Denpasoft on April 28th 2017"
>>
>>16333898
Probably still a bit on Grisaia then, if they can't give a release date for that yet gave one for Nekopara.

I also fail to see how they get Chrono Clock out quickly, when it is still in translation
>>
>>16333898
none of these will meet their deadlines except Nekopara
>>
>>16332027
Nonsense, the game specifically has Japanese voice acting.
>>
>>16333898
>2017
I'd wager that means 2019 at the earliest.
>>
>>16334069
That doesn't really mean much. Dogenzaka Lab for example is a Japanese company that has been making games specifically to target the english steam audience, such as Tokyo School Life, Malus Code, Campus Notes, Kyoto Colorful Days, and an array of otome games. Their games are all dual language and have Japanese voice acting, but make no mistake, the games are available only on Steam and targeting the English speaking audience only. Moenovel's newest game doesn't even have Japanese text or a Japanese release, so you'd have a hard time calling it a Japanese VN.

If you want to be technical about the definition, Sakura Nova was written by a Japanese writer and translated into English (for reasons I can't possibly fathom) and has Japanese voices... but I doubt anyone would be willing to acknowledge it as anything but a crappy OELVN.
>>
>>16333898
>Grisaia- "The 18+ version of The Labyrinth of Grisaia has seen some delay, unfortunately. However, it'll finally be released early 2017, so please look forward to it! Thank you for your patience."
>early 2017

Can't wait to pirate it when it's out in March.
>>
>>16333898
See I called that. They did expect it to be out January. Like the other anons said it will not be out in that time range they must have pre written it instead of keeping up with the updates.
>>
>>16334543
My had I meant to say Chrono Clock by January.
>>
>>16334069
The bar has always been higher than just being voiced in japanese. Shadow tactics, for example, is easy to tell that they cheaped out on the localization
>>
>>16333982
Grisaia might be able to be released in the next month or two. The others I agree with. Chrono Clock being released in anywhere near 3 months is laughable, and I have a hard time believing that they can get SakuSaku out. Which is fairly sad since the translation was already done about a year ago.
>>
Will I die before Sumaga is released?
>>
>>16331811
That was shit since the very beginning.
Still kinda funny that they're planning to cut the scenes in the beginning that made it look like some nukige.
>>
>>16335403
Please, don't speak of things you don't know.
>>
So I haven't been keeping up with the VN news in a while but someone on /lit/ mentioned Dies Irae has a Kickstarter now. I'm guessing that turned out to be Conjueror's "worst-kept-secret" project?

Any drama about it, or what? Do we finally have hope?
>>
>>16335532
Are you talking about Re:Zero being boring shitfest or about Harukuru having one H-scene per five minutes in the beginning?
>>
>>16335678
Figure it out yourself, ESL.
>>
>>16335664
Hope for what? It's a shit vn nobody really cares about. There's plenty of entertaining drama about the failure of a kickstarter though.
>>
>>16335872
Not looking forward to assholes like you shitposting about it endlessly.

Kana is in the JAST bundle twice. For what purpose?

It is A trainwreck but it will still reach its base goal baring another shitstorm before the last few days.

Padding

Why are idiots just now calling Dies Irae bad when everyone's been praising it for years? Who do you think you're fooling? This stinks of a false flag operation.
>>
>>16336290
It's either SP shills or JOPs
>>
>>16336290

to be fair this happens any time a localization is announced
>>
>>16336290
>when everyone's been praising it for years
you mean moggy and his faggot friends lol even Conjueror thinks it's not that good
>>
>>16336290
>everyone's been praising it for years
Who was? Sorry, I don't use twitter.
>>
>>16336290
People have been saying DI is shit for as long as they've been saying it's good. In fact, I feel like the overall reception has swung from average/negative to positive the last 2-3 years, probably because of the prevalence of certain community members shilling the fuck out of it.
>>
>>16336057
One is a remake.

Some of us do here. If you do not like it it's fine.
