Y'know. I think what bothers me the most about Archfiend is that it sounds like 4kids shit. Except it actually IS 4kids shit.

For Yugioh, the monster type in English is called 'Fiend' because they didn't want kids playing a card game with demons in it right? So, by changing it to Archfiend, it actually ends up sounding... immature. Because censoring demon with fiend was a really common thing. It gives the impression of censoring a game meant for people over the age of 18.

Wasn't it censored in DQ that way, for much the same reason? Because they didn't want a game with demons in it in fear of moral guardians? And that's what's being referenced by calling them Archfiends.

So you say you would use a mistranslation from other series into Rance series, despite we had a correct translation in the past (at least for Maou, I'm not talking about using Dark Lord for Majin)? Let's be real, the Maou-Yuusha concept has been popular in the past ten years (to the point I could say it's overused) and every translated titles have used Demon King for Maou, now you change it because of a mistranslation from an ancient series?
>>
>>152020573
I remember in 03 when they built up to the release of the Maou. As the breaking of her containment grew near, we saw the dark history of her rule painted by one who was alive those thousands of years ago. We saw the world enslaved, humanity mere cattle to the true rulers of the planet, slaughtered and butchered and abused and forced to battle amongst themselves for the entertainment of their masters. We saw the darkest and lowest age of the human race, without freedom, without hope, without light, without a future.

Now EOPs will get to read all of that occurring under the name of the evil Archfiend Jill.
>>
Trying to play Rance 02.

How do I skip the opening cut scene? That thing lasts forever.
>>
>>152021057
On the plus side compared to what most "translations" do, getting the title wrong is pretty minor. If they ever get to 03, presumably the only difference will be the stupid name choice.
>>
>>152021057
The problem is, in Ranceverse, they serarate Demon and Devil into 2 different types. The word Archfiend (or Archdevil) is usually referring to Satan, a creature that is directly opposed to the god. In Ranceverse, the one with the same role is not Demon King, but Rathowm - the Devil King. I'm ok if they use Archfiend for Rathowm, because Fiend can be seen as high class Devil, but for Demon King? Absolutely not.
>>
>>152022262
>>152022824

Satan was an agent of god in Abrahamic religions showcasing man's folly via temptation or enacting his will. Even in Christianity he's a servant of god for a time when he is originally called Lucifer, ironically being the strongest of the seraph.

I don't like archfiend but that reason doesn't really fly I don't think. Hell, Maou is often used for Lucifer or Satan characters. Even in Ranceverse it still works.
>>
>>152022000
>presumably the only difference will be the stupid name choice
This is wrong, it's just EOPs tend to notice name differences because they stand out. In my experience with these game translations, there's always a lot of underlying meaning and characterisation present in the Japanese text that gets completely discarded by the translator, but since EOPs have no way of knowing what the original says, they just see a grammatically correct sentence and assume it's a good translation. It's part of what makes the job so easy.

Aru generally isn't known for that but yes that can happen. I don't remember anyone getting uppity about KR's or Mamatoto's script other than name shit. I suppose he could just be secretly horrible though. We'll find out when VI English releases. I certainly remember enough to know if he'll do a good job or not.
>>
Aru's actual translations are fine.

Things like preserving name order and honourifics for Japanese characters while using English alternatives for obviously western nations is perfect for instance
>>
>>152023132
> showcasing man's folly via temptation or enacting his will
Devil in ranceverse is doing exacttly the same by giving human wish to steal their souls, so the definition of Satan or Archfiend will be perfect to refer the king of devils.

Demon army in ranceverse are monsters, and the king of monster in many Japanese games or mangas/novels is the Vampire King (for example, castlevania franchise or the Monogatari series), which is easily seen in Ranceverse as Demon Kings has too many feature of the vampires.
>>
>>152025508
>>152025687
> Demon Kings has too many feature of the vampires.
Demon Kings are outright vampiric, Ssulal, Nighcisa and Gele (to a lesser extent) all drink blood of humans.
>>
>>152025508
>>152025687
I know. I wasn't saying archfiend was a bad choice for the Devil King. I meant I didn't like archfiend referring to the Demon King. Though I feel Devil King is a fine title by itself and you don't need to make a special title for it. Then people might just get confused by the hierarchy of the Devils, or wonder if he has anything to do with the devils at all.

I imagine we'll run into this issue with new players when English VI drops and people are confused by the term "apostles" when the rest of the terms related are fiend. I'm surprised they didn't end up going with Demi-fiends or something. I hope Pi-R eventually comments on this. I'd love to know why they kept Apostle but changed the rest.
>>
>>152026052
I wouldn't be surprised it's something along the lines of distinguishing who has the blood of the demon king and who doesn't.
>>
>>152026052
I agree. I think we don't need to use Archfiend for neither Devil King nor Demon King, but if the translator insists on using it, it should be a replacement for Devil King, not Demon King.
>>
>>152026052
Probably because demi-fiend is just as bad.
>>
>>152027152
Yet they used fiend for the other two terms, since why I had hoped to get a comment.
>>
>>152027152
>>152027298
>>152026052
I'd imagine it's because Apostles are more like people who have made contracts with a Demon/Fiend whatever
>>
>>152028303
I have a feeling we're thinking about it much more thoroughly than they did.
>>
Stop saying Archiend is a mistranslation of 魔王, it's not, say you don't agree with the translation or something, it's becoming kind of silly.
Presonally I would have gone with:
Dark Overlord> Dark Lord > Apostle

But I can see where Arunaru is coming from.
>>
>>152028303
Most are created via blood pacts though, so demi-fiend as a term would be accurate as far as fiends are concerned since they have blood of Archfiend in them. Keeping apostle is kinda weird unless you're talking about those who didn't do a blood pact, then you could probably just say servant.
>>
>>152028674
Maybe. But the only important thing for them is that they are followers of their particular master which apostle actually illustrates better than demi-fiend.

Demi fiend probably describes someone like Kurohime though

Fiends sounds like what you would call the Onis. I could understand why they didn't want Dark Lords, but why not continue with Demons? They are called a different thing in every translated game. Anyone that wants to play through the series will be confused as shit.

Which is why we need to keep the wiki up to date, all this nameshit is going to confuse a lot of people
>>
>>152031421
No, fiends are nothing like onis.
Oni is something like ogre or troll in western mythology. Strong, but relatively stupid being. Depicted as muscular blue or red humanoid with "oni mask" face and horns, armed with club and often wearing japanese armor.
Fiend is demonic being, often incorporeal, with black and or red flames to depict its hellish origins. Is very cunning, and deceives humans into committing sins.

One that came out with Haruka didn't. I copied it into Rance VI and didn't had any issues there so I assume SLC fixed the problem.
>>
>>152035421

I thought it might turn out like this, I hope Alicesoft starts releasing Rance 10 info soon, It'd be neat if this week they release new info alongside saying that they're going worldwide.

They have a booth at Comiket so maybe. It's a good time to announce information.

Demon and devil are practically synonyms in English, there's almost no semantic distance. Fiend is still pretty close but at least it's not literally the same thing to a naive reader - it refers more to a monster than a religious antagonist.
>>
>>152040151
In modern day english Demon is just as much of a monster as Fiend

Devil is the only one that would have any religious connotation for most people

So I have been getting a friend rather interested in Sengoku, but should I have him start with Sengoku? VI is on the horizon after all.
>>
>>152041916
>On the horizon

>>
>>152041916
Sengoku is great start. If he's interest in it, then you just have him start with it.
>>
>>152042236
but how much better would the experience be if he played VI before Sengoku?
>>
>>152042339
Aside from knowing the characters that you can request from Zeth better you wouldn't gain much appreciation
>>
>>152041916

There's no real reason I know of to start with VI over Sengoku.

I've been hesitating to ask, because of the stigma that comes with it, but what potential do you think Alicesoft settings have for roleplay?

With the sheer amount of characters and lore attached to Rance alone, you'd think there'd be plenty there to mess with, but I've seen otherwise.
>>
>>152051964
isn't there a tabletop floating somewhere in the pastebin?

>>152051964

I've long flirted with the idea of running a quest in the late Nighcisa era or in the Jill era on /tg/

>>152073980
I've never liked her and unfortunately you can only have so many scenes/art in a game. If someone has to get chopped to make room for another girl I wouldn't complain if it were to be her.

That said it's usually the characters that I like that get cut.
>>
>>152074249
She gets like max 1 scene per game.

She's not like Sill who pretty much always gets 4 or 5
>>
>>152074464
Sill is about to get 50 scenes in X to make up for lost time, fuck that game is going to be a disappointment from a CG gallery perspective.

There's no way for it to not be with how many girls there will be in it.
>>
>>152074249
Lia was never going to get a scene in IX due to her situation anyway, I'm just satisfied with her walking all over Helman and taking one of the best moments in IX for her own
>>
>>152074249
She only gets like 1 CG per game except in KR where she's technically the firs main girl you get in story. She's pretty harmless. It's Kanami and Shizuka you gotta watch out for.
>>
>>152074793
As it should be. Lia appeared in VI and put Magic in her place as worst Princess
>>
>>152075137
I'm mostly indifferent with Lia, but that first scene with Magic in Quest was pretty funny

Originally Magic in VI had a higher cap than Alex until they patched it and gave him his proper cap instead of it being Level 50. Alicesoft just loves to see her suffering (She's not even confirmed to be pregnant yet unlike the others)

>>152076002

It'd be silly for her to not be one of the main girls alongside Sill/Sheila/Kenshin

>>
>>152076181
Something with hannies.
>>
>>152073865
It's neat to see the outfit progression.

seems like they liked the outfit from KR, but felt it needed something a lil more and mixed it with 3, then realized they went overboard with gold and started to tone it down.
>>
>>152076421

This is why I can't get excited for X. Once you add in Kanami that's like 60% of all the CGs that are going to be in the game already.

Hanniwa being eaten by something?
>>
>>152076665
I'm excited for the story of X more than anything, although IX gave me hope for the scenes in X even if they will mostly allocated to girls I don't care about

>Kenshin
Kenshin hasn't gotten any attention in quite a few years, I don't see the problem.
>>
>>152076902
Wouldn't be my first choice. Maybe one of those pervy guymonsters chasing a hanette?
>>
>>152077123
She literally had a route dedicated to her in Sengoku and had multiple scenes in Quest

>Implying Pigu scenes weren't great
>>
>>152076421
I meant actual characer, not gameplay character. Magic is pretty useful always.
>>
>>152077123
IX had so much recycle, two of Milacles "scenes" were literally the exact same CG recycled but one was defloration and one was her getting fucked after the bath but with the same base
>>
>>152077479
>She literally had a route dedicated to her in Sengoku and had multiple scenes in Quest
Segoku was 10 years ago and Quest was 6 and Kenshin only had a character arc in Quest like many characters did i.e Satella, Lia etc. There's been multiple games released in the last few years and she hasn't appeared in any of them (wouldn't make sense for her to appear in them) so yes one can use the lack of attention argument

>>152077813
Because IX had tons of great scenes on the whole?

>Pigu in general
Pigu's scenes were hit and miss but they were almost all funny as fuck.
>>
>>152078146
>Magic is pretty useful always.
I wouldn't say so.
>Outclassed in VI but has to be used like everybody else

>>
>>152078370
>IX had tons of great scenes on the whole
Aside from Monster Arm Nagi, Alkanese over the balcony, Rape Baby and Sheila in the bath and the Kanami 3P none of them were that special for me.

Milacles scenes were wasted on shit like the tentacle monster and portal sex. Her other two scenes are basically the same thing (Same CG used)

Senhime's scenes were all bondage stuff which was a miss for me.
>>
>>152078975
I did'nt say she was best anon. She's just helpful.
>>
What would you rather have anons?

>4-5 heroines with 4-5 scenes, everyone else only gets one or none in some cases. Bad ends/rape are counted separately.
>Everyone gets 1-2 scenes, nobody is left out. Minor girls or major girls who need more focus for that game will get added as 3P partners instead.
>>
>>152079468
If every major girl doesn't get a scene and closure of character I will riot. I've been teased Urza since Quest. I better get something damn it.

Not sure if this this wasn't answered before but what manner of speaking will be used by Kanami, Rizna and Kaoru in the official releases?
Those three given their origins and upbringing circumstances could go with either western or eastern manner. Personally I think that the western manner suits Kanami more, a bit on the edge about Rizna but for the sake if 5D immersion the eastern manner would suit her better and Kaoru would go better with the eastern manner.

They're already said they're handling it on a case by case basis, but generally JAPANese or Japanese parody characters will retain the Japanese honorifics.

I want to see it too, but unfortunately I think she's past the redeemable point. Even if Rance would spare her (Which I'm not even sure he'd do) there's definitely plenty in the Hornet faction who would just kill her. Especially since she's probably going to rape Hawzel and/or Silky

>>152127905
I'm legit curious what you consider "lose all hope ye who enter here" since your opinion seem to largely reflect our own regarding changing the names. I kinda hope you're just hyperbolic though.
>>
>>152128185
I see it as the opposite. A controlled release of information to let people went their opinions (and frustrations) over time rather than all at once. And who knows, maybe someone will make a really good point about a certain name.
It also keeps the thread alive.
>>
>>152128185
Pretty much everyone here including some moonreaders will buy.

I doubt people outside /haniho/ care that much about nameshit. I also doubt anyone here who would've bought it won't buy anymore just because of nameshit.

>>152128385

>>
>>152128997
Gi/Guy is Gai, which is pronounced the same way to most people?
>>
>>152129072
Guy is actually a name in English

The main reason to go for Gai would be ti preserve the GI date but that is no longer an issue
>>
>>152128878
Americanize would be more than changing the names.
>>
>>152129285
Going full Western was never a goal. Very few characters in the series use conventional Western names.
>>
>>152129603
Perhaps but when one is an actual name and the other isn't why not use Guy?
>>
>>152129836
Same idea. We don't want to change a non-name to a regular-name without a compelling reason.
>>
>>152129936
And what was the compelling reason behind Cell or Archfiend?
>>
>>152128997
Gele doesn't really phonetic work in both languages. There really isn't way to make "gel" sound like "Jil". Compare that to Jill and Jiru and it works pretty well. Not 100 percent but it's way more comparable. Gai likewise works phonetic in both, where as guy only works in English.

At least that's how I'm choosing to look at it.
>>
>>152130248
In Australia Geel as in Geelong sounds like Jill
>>
>>152130112
Fiends, again, were mirroring the original DQ reference (in theory).

We opted not to use Cell, though we did discuss cell groups/cell churches.
>>
>>152130341
I stand corrected, though I still think by and large Jill is a necessary evil since Gele would need a translate note on pronunciation for everyone except aussies.

Except that's bullshit. In the English language a devil is a fallen angel and a demon is a (monstrous) creature.

It makes a fuckton of sense to use devils for the evil Kalar mutation because of this, and demon for the actual demons.

Remember kids, just because you're not aware of a difference doesn't mean there isn't one.
>>
>>152130934
I think Jil would be even worse, and it still doesn't address the era thing, which you guys are apparently fixing anyway. Jill is fine. Put your efforts towards stopping any "lose all hope ye who enter here" names.

So I could use some advice. I just began Chapter 4 in Rance IX, and I reached the mission where you have to beat a solo Dekant. It's been giving me some trouble due to a few factors. I can offset its considerable single target damage with Hubert's taunts + the right formation + barriers + healing, but its AOE is absolutely ruining me. The narrow terrain allows it to hit all of my units with said AOE, and it seems like it causes some of my units to rout with every use.

Do I just need to go and grind out some more SP, or is there something I'm missing?

She was locked for many years in Genbu castle. It might be not 100% good reason but after passing all those youkais and finding at the top of the castle a kimono-clad beauty in a company of a samurai hanny if she won't be speaking in Japanese manner like the rest of the inhabitants the difference will be too glaring.
>>
>>152136429
Rizna couldn't interact with the inhabitants because the castle itself has none as it's completely automated, honorifics or not would be completely based on the men that visited her. Kaze has only been there for a few years and a few years does not change a lifetime of speech habits

There's no reason to keep honorifics for her.

As shitty as that is, at least it's just a galmon and not a major element of the setting. Like "fiends".
>>
>>152136552
She was in a mind broken state by the time when Kaze found her. The last years that she spent there in his company and recovered were the most crucial. But none of her circumstances or origin should be known to the first time players mid game and if unlike how her appearance and surroundings suggests she will start speaking without honorifics it will be just too glaring. In general I would agree that there is no major need for her to retain honorifics. But if she is going to speak without them in 5D that's going to leave an odd impression.
>>
>>152137597
Considering there are only youkai around who might use honorifics, I really doubt it'll stand out.
>>
>>152137597
>But if she is going to speak without them in 5D that's going to leave an odd impression.
If anything it'd be a good hint that she clearly doesn't belong in there like the rest.
>>
>>152137597
>She was in a mind broken state by the time when Kaze found her.
Yes but he restored her mental state, he didn't re-build her from the ground up as she's clearly exactly the same as she was before meeting with the men as you can see with her interactions with Gandhi in VI.


As >>152138332 said it'd be a good hint that she doesn't belong there like the rest and I'm not even going to get into the fact that Kaze comes from Zeth and shouldn't be using Honorifics to begin with
>>
>>152131187
>Remember kids, just because you're not aware of a difference doesn't mean there isn't one.
When it comes to languages it means exactly that, since the meaning of words is determined by what the reader thinks when reading them. I don't get to claim full ownership of demon/devil because I'm no the only English speaker around, so if someone says there's a difference then they're right about a subset of English speakers. But by the same token you don't get to claim full ownership of demon/devil either. People from our generation who have played a lot of persona and dark souls will distinguish the two words, but that doesn't mean you get to declare it the One True Meaning of the word.
>>
>>152138707
You really shouldn't be basing the definition of a word in our language (Well the heritage of our language) off products made by a completely different language who don't understand the original context and meanings of the words.
>>
>>152138707
No he is correct in that the words do describe two distinct things.
>>
>>152139101
I concede that, but I think my original point about fiends being further apart in meaning from devil still stands. For some people, including myself, demon/devil are by default the same word unless the work establishes a difference.

>>152139040
Aren't at least some of the Japanese games translated by native English speakers?
>>
>>152138707
However, that works both ways and changing a word simply because a subset of people *might* get confused seems utterly silly.

Most of the documented distinction comes from Christian biblical texts though, and I'm a bit rusty on the details but fiends are typically classified as a subspecies of either demon or devil.

Devils are typically the deceitful type where you sign away your soul (so that fits Feliss really well), demons being more forceful and just killing you outright. Fiends tend to then be lesser demons like imps and possibly succubi, though your point that definitions vary is still true.

>>
>>152139749
As a generic translation? Sure. As this translation? It's a bad call.
>>
>>152139726
Except they're not.

Most Christian villains are based around human sin, Devils representing greed, sloth and envy, Demons representing wrath, gluttony and lust. (though this is only one of many interpretations)

Other distinctions include demons being the type to possess (forcefully) and devils being the type to manipulate (subtly)

Fiends are unilaterally a subset of either demons or devils though, so having the big bad guy being of a subset species is just silly.

>>152139749

How can anyone be so misguided??
>>
>>152140086
Note though the difference between "the devil" and "a devil"

"The devil" is a modernized Christian culmination of several other (evil) divine figures (Lucifer, Satan, Mephistopheles) It should also be noted that demons are usually a lower tier in Christianity (the above are all devils) as they are separate entities that merely possess humans, arguably making them the "Devil's version of angels.

The real demons as main antagonists come from eastern religions, eastern mythology didn't have a specific type for devils as most spirits or lesser demons were the manipulative ones. It's actually an interesting divide in that Eastern religion typically values power in their antagonists, while in Western religion the higher divine figures are typically deceitful.

You could also argue that fiends are to devils what spirits are to demons, regardless it's not some horrible problem, just completely silly to translate something previously intimidating to something more petty.
>>
>>152139749

I think the reason why the change was made was because Aru really doesn't want to use Demon King for some reason.

>>152140413
You are contradicting yourself.
First you claimed that there's some special meaning for devil/demon in Western culture so simple Eastern translations not apply, now you claim that concept comes from East, and therefore since we are translating Eastern work, its irrelevant what misconceptions about Eastern culture West had and original material takes precedence.
And in japanese there's no distinction between "demons", "devils" and so on. Its all same single kanji 魔 plus modifiers.
>>
>>152140587
Nah.
I think it's simple. Aru wanted consistency with Demon Lord being the leader of the Demons.

I think Fiend was just a medium between Demon and Dark Lord and Archfiend logically followed
>>
One thing to note is that 魔人 is not inherently evil, for instance, a wish-granting genie is called a ランプの魔人. This fits with the complex level of depth and personality behind them, as they're not inherently malevolent, they just believe humans to be an inferior subspecies is all. The connotations behind the word "Fiend" are completely different, so it really doesn't work as a translation if your aim to imitate the emotions and feelings invoked by the original text.
>>
>>152140587
>>152140652
Wasn't it about Dragon Quest references?
>>
>>152140638
We're talking more than 2000 years of history here anon, Demon isn't a term originally from Christian religion (there's mentions of it in Greek mythology but not as such, they were much different) but there is a lot of merging and overlap between religions, what we understand as demons (the type of demonic possession) is fairly modern while it's been around much longer in Eastern religions.

You also need to understand that there are literally hundreds of different versions of Christianity, but the main point here is that while both Demons and Devils are mentioned regularly throughout, Fiends are mostly absent (and I may be entirely off base here, I won't claim to know anywhere near enough to make this claim so absolute)

By all means though, if you can find me a mention of a prominent Fiend then I'd be glad to know it, because I'm drawing a blank here.
>>
>>152140712
Seems like a nice justification at the end.

There is no reason at all to assume that they are a reference to Dragon Quest.
>>
>>152140712

It felt like a pretext to me.
>>
>>152140912
Let's also not forget that if you watch any random anime, Maou is almost always "Demon king" so it ultimately just comes down to Aru doing a 'special snowflake' translation.
>>
>>152140983
Just because anime translators are completely retarded and mistranslate 95% of lines, it doesn't mean you should imitate them.
>>
>>152140936
Is it about not calling female Demon Kings, "king"? I remember someone mentioning that that's what bothered him about the title, but I'm not up to date on Aru.

If so then the most convincing arguments against it would tackle that issue. Personally I much prefer Dark Overlord to archfiend, and both don't have the gender issue.
>>
>>152141059
Yes that was the entire basis of his argument around Demon "lord". I'm fine with Demon Lord and Demons compared to what we're about to get
>>
>>152141056
No, the argument is more towards familiarity, since most readers will know Maou as "Demon king" and people that might know otherwise wouldn't need a translation in the first place.

It just makes it needlessly confusing for no real purpose, and would mismatch with every other translated Rance game to date.
>>
>>152140118
Well what is there to fap to? She has literally no material.
>>
>>152141182
That didn't stop Aru when he first renamed them.

>>
>>152141059

I know Disgaea translated Maou as Overlord, but I don't know how well that fits since it feels like a title anyone can get rather than a specific being.

If I was to try and look at Archfiend objectively first off Archfiend sounds like there can be more of one, Archfiend sounds like a high ranking evil being rather than being the absolute top.

Well that's kind of how it works in Ranceverse so it wouldn't be too bad, especially since it's also a leadership position.

In Disgaea they fight over the title to be the one in charge, if I think about it Overlord can work but then how would the demons play in with being the direct minions of the Overlord who received it's blood.

Now that I think about this hard Fiend and Archfiend seems better than before in retrospect since it conveys the fact that they are linked, the problem with Archfiend is that it doesn't seem like the absolute number 1, or in other words it doesn't sound like the final boss.

>>152141392
The whole females can't be kings is a retarded thing anyway.

A king is a supreme ruler, one who bows to no one. A queen is the kings wife, nothing more. nothing less. A woman in a sole position of power is a King, a woman who marries into power is a Queen. The King may take a husband but the King would still be a King, not a Queen, unless the King transfers power to her husband. A King that transfers or shares power can no longer be considered a supreme ruler, thus loses the right to call themselves King.
>>
>>152142791
King is a distinctly male title in English.

Hence Queen Elizabeth or Queen Victoria
>>
>>152142791
That is if you only interpret that King is the one who rules and Queen is the semen dump.

The other interpretation and far simpler one is that Queen is the female counterpart of King.
And there are historical precedent for Queens being called queens while reigning and not "female Kings".
>>
Isn't King and Queen supposed to be equal in power when it comes to titles? King's consort and Queen's consort are titles that exists after all
>>
>>152142791

I'm for demon king and demon, not only is it very common it just works.

>>152142876

I know there was a polish female crowned king but that's a bit of an exception I think, the title might be masculine but it conveys what the person is very well, they are the ruler that stands above everything else, the problem might be conveying a gender neutral title to a masculine title but things like this tend to happen in translations.
>>
>>152143197
>King's consort
It's called Prince consort.
>>
>>152143210
Poland also isn't English and it's obscure especially since England and later Great Britain (the go to for English) did have Queen Elizabeth the 1st and later Queen Victoria who aren't obscure.
>>
>>152143313
King consort exists, but it is not as common as Prince consort.
>>
>>152142876
The British are weird fucks with this. They are called the Queen, but the titles they hold stay male. Duke, Prince, ect.

>>152142906
They chose an inferior title because they are inferior in mind. The title of King commands respect and power, a woman who calls herself King will be challenged on her right to be King, those who call themselves Queen are shying away from challenge, thus showing weakness not befitting a true King.
>>
>>152143498
So Ssulal is a queen and the rest are kings?
>>
>>152143498
To me the debate between King and Queen is a non-issue. In the modern mind Kings and Queens are equal in terms of ruling power, even if in inheritance it is common knowledge that the male is generally preferred.

Titles change their roles with time. Just like Emperor and Caesar. And most titles, actually.
>>
So is Avel being called Abel meant to be a sort of ironic joke based on Abel and Cain in the bible?
>>
>>152143498
Nah. That's a peculiarity involving Normandy and the Isle of Mann only.
>>
>>152142791
> king is a supreme ruler, one who bows to no one
Lol, no. Concept of absolutism was developed only at the end of monarchy era, and lasted only like 100 years.
Usual feudal king was just first among equals, and his vassals had right to overthrow him shall he infringe on their rights.
Here's typical medieval oath of allegiance
> We, who are as good as you, swear to you, who are no better than us, to accept you as our king and sovereign, provided you observe all our liberties and laws, but if not, not.
>>
>>152143662
Ssulal was weak, but not weak. Just as a brilliant tactician may be feeble, they are strong.

>>152143672
It's a non-issue, but this is regarding the name change from demon king to archfiend for the purpose of a gender neutral title instead of one that changes, which can already exist in king.

>>152143856
What you are describing is feudalism. Kings existed before feudalism. Alexander the Great, for example. King of Macedon, Egypt, Persia, and Asia. He did not obtain the three other titles through love and friendship.
>>
>>152144867
Alexander the Great was well known for being female
>>
Time for me to sleep.

I'm starting to get confidence in you lot so don't let me down
>>
>>152145415
It doesn't mean much unless Pi-R does something
>>
>>152144867
Put yourself in the shoes of a general in Alexander's army. You have a couple thousand men, you're stationed in Egypt while the big man is campaigning in Persia. You can declare yourself king of Egypt and your soldiers will obey and it will only be a problem if Alexander drops everything to turn around and attack you.

So why don't you? It's not because Alexander has absolute power, rather you know that his successes help you and vice versa. Yeah you subordinate yourself but in exchange you're part of something big and you get more power yourself when the Alexander faction gets ahead. The king is leader but the only reason the nobles with armies follow him is that they expect he'll work in their interests.
>>
>>152144867
>It's a non-issue, but this is regarding the name change from demon king to archfiend for the purpose of a gender neutral title instead of one that changes, which can already exist in king.

But the thing is it actually can't. King is not a special title that came into a situation when a women ruled and became a gender neutral one. Those do exist, I don't know if in English, but I can't remember what they are.
I do understand your reasoning though.

On that note, does "Ou" apply to both sexes?

>On that note, does "Ou" apply to both sexes?
Kinda. Ou means ruler, but as it's common for Japanese, the default tend to be male, while a variant is created for female. So Ou alone would be used for king, and if you add the kanji for girl before it it becomes Queen.

But when ou is used with other kanjis to result in other ruler related words, like ma-ou, the resulting word generally applies to both sexes.

It does matter. First you should do dungeons in your starting territories (Owari, Ise, Bukkake Dungeon - very good early).

I liked her.

>>152176402
Kanami counts, right?
>>
>>152178345
She was pretty cute.
>>
>>152162492
I was going to say Tomato, but from the looks of it, she's pretty popular among the minor characters. So Anko.
>>
>>152178023
Wrong, I like her too.
>>
>>152178820
I like Tomato simply because of her skills in Quest, useful as fuck
>>
>>152177918
anyone can see her cunny
>>
What games do we need new download links for?
>>
>>152179043
Not really a game, but latest Magnum patch was down. (And the original is behind the annoying IP-block)
>>
>>152178941
Tomato is both cute and useful.
She's a definite winner in my book.
>>
>>152179163
The patch with Rick and Am?
>>
>>152179390
ver2.082, that should be the latest one as far as I know
>>
>>152179390
That one deleted my saves when I used it.
Thanks Ludo.

Why?
>>
>>152157936
>>152159098

It's starting to sound more and more like a Rance roguelike.
>>
>>152182742
It kinda is. Not a real one though, just has some elements.
>>
>>152161086

I usually ignore dungeons except one or two specific ones and when I did KTM I had to spend about 20-40 turns grinding to even have a chance at beating Masamune.

Don't be like me.

I wanna fucking be one of Rance's girls.

Maybe the problem is having Japanese text for your files. Try changing them to match pic related. It's my game which should work (though the game isn't loading now for some reason).
>>
>>152178384

Nope, the truest and oldest Katsuko husbando would be me. Please leave my wife alone, thank you.

There's image of a gender bender Rocky from Alicesoft.
>>
>>152183743
What is it?
>>
>>152184072
A picture of Rocky cracking out his old body, like a egg
>>
>>152184072
it's on the booru.
>>
>>152181965

It's failing to parse the .ini. Have you changed it in any way?
>>
>>152184389
You're not seriously asking this, are you?
>>
>>152181965
This is why we don't use notepad, kids.

>>152184280
What's the tag for rocky?
>>
>>152185431
Rocky Banks probably

Aren't you glad Ludo was run off so we no longer have to see horrible content like that?

>>
>>152185658
What a waste.
>>
>>152181965
your ini is not in a readable language for your computer. That's what's probably causing the problem. I have a proper one available, if you want:

>>151984762
what happened to the guys who translated sengoku rance etc?

trying to get in touch with them
>>
>>152187981
TakaJun became a japanese salaryman. He's gone.
>>
>>152182640
Sounds like you already have terminal cancer anon, just relax and let it happen.
>>
>>152187981
They went to China and were never heard from again. Just like Rouge Translator.
>>
>>152187981
TakaJun abandoned translations years ago because he was too busy working and eventually wished the internet would forget about him so he wouldn't have to translate anymore
>>
>>152188384
Well his name is now infamous with bad translations so even if he was active again, we wouldn't want him unless he improved.

And for the name discussion, I wonder if Aru is checking here and laughing at us for caring only about names when there are more important stuffs. We can't discuss much else but that until the games are released. Still, glad that we have people that can read Japanese and care about translation quality. Normally, I wouldn't care if I could read in JP because my English isn't good enough to tell whether it's well translated and laziness.
>>
>>152188726
>I wonder if Aru is checking here and laughing at us for caring only about names when there are more important stuffs
It's not like we can discuss the other important stuff because we need access to their translations to discuss it. We can only discuss information we know and base stuff off that
>>
>>152188726
>Still, glad that we have people that can read Japanese and care about translation quality.

Hopefully they can read it better than hear it.
>>
>>152188726
Arunaru most likely shitposts here without his trip.
>>
>>152189534
But he can't ego trip without the trip.
>>
>>152188726
I don't understand Japanese but care for that.
>>
>>152189625
That's why he uses his alter ego, Pi-R, to give us info while he defends it anonymously
>>
>>152189847
Stop shitposting, Aru.
>>
>>152189847
But they were trying to kill each other last I heard. Is this some advanced version of the old "Everyone is Ludo" paranoia jokes?
>>
>>152188204

Okay thanks for your responses.

>>152190278
Well the plan is failing since everyone still pretty much unanimously agrees both Archfiend and Jill are retarded choices.
>>
>>152190278
>people slowly come to accept the new regime.
Nope, he already failed horribly with KR. His terms aren't going to catch on in here and the external fanbase will use the terms from SR because they played them first
>>
>>152190445
I don't find Jill retarded. Archfiend on the other hand...
>>
>>152190278
Not going to happen as long as there are Japanese reading fans here, it's pretty easy to call Aru out on his bullshit but he doesn't listen.
>>
>>152191553
Archfiend Gel
>>
>>152191553
Don't give in anon, Jill is just as terrible, it'd be like calling another Demon King "Bob"
>>
Pretty much every Japanese reading fan is fine with Jill
>>
>>152192973
No Aru, they really aren't, stop lying to yourself.
>>
I seriously hope KKEBEREESE is official
>>
>>152192894

I'm now imagining Kaybliss (Bob > Kaybob > Archfiend Jimbob) as a redneck with a straw hat and it's fucking amazing.

>>152192973

I was exposed to Gele long before I learned Japanese and saw how it was actually written so I'm in the unfortunate position of knowing they probably just made shit up but also thinking what they made up is way better than Jill anyway.
>>
What exactly does "How to Siege Castles" buff?
>>
>>152192973
Nope, Gele is how they choose to spell her name. Sure it reads as Jill but pronunciations and spellings don't have to be the same especially when you are talking about completely different languages.
>>
>>152192894
The thing is, that's her name.

>>152193639
Makes no difference, I'd be happy if they just called her Jiru instead or something if they absolutely have to, Jill is just painfully mundane.
>>
>>152193753
Alicesoft can't do English names.

We don't use Siera or Ria or Leira or Milacle
>>
>>152193753
>yfw arisu just thought it to be cute without knowing shit of another language other than Japanese.
>>
>>152193836
> Jill is just painfully mundane.

At least we can give Little Princess some credit for realizing how stupid Demon King Miki would be and sorting that shit out.
>>
>>152193840
>Siera
We could if you want

>Ria
Lia and Ria are the same thing, I just prefer Lia.

> Leira
Same thing as above.

>Milacle
We use Miracle because Miracle was obviously what Alicesoft was aiming for as her existance is a Miracle.

Try harder

>>152194104
Gele probably purposely wrote her name as Gele so it didn't look so mundane

It is mundane, but it is not for the Japanese ears. Or maybe that's the joke. The most horrible Demon King to walk the over world, Jill Sandwich.

Gele is horrible, it's pronunciation as Jill sounds too forced to me.

Sierra

Well, if the current nameshit keeps up you can look forward to Archfiend Small Hime.
>>
>>152194342
>Sierra
I don't mind, there was a video game company with that name wasn't there?

>That's just horrible
Which is why people use Lia instead? Ria and Lia are literally the same thing in Japanese

>>152194370
Spellcheck mate, don't spell the country's name wrong.
>>
>>152194397
Fuck my what?
>>
>>152194201
>Jill Sandwich

It's been conclusively proven that Gele is not the Master of Unlocking or else we would have to rewrite half the series.
>>
>>152193889
How would they have gotten Gele since it doesn't sound like ジル at all?
>>
>>152193840
Come on, those are just impossible to write unambigiously. Jill vs Gele is not.
>>
>>152194370
Yeah.

But pretty sure anyone who isn't Victorian or a football fan won't remember that anyway
>>
>>152194556
my key board was in jap
i was asking for help
>>
>>152194626
Yeah. Jill is clearly correct while Gele was an awkward way to preserve the GL era

Given the people involved aren't Australia they don't have the Geelong excuse
>>
>>152194615
It was clearly intentional, just like Ithere.
>>
>>152194547
There was. And that is actually a word. Spanish for Mountain Range, I believe.
We got one for that too, Serra.
>>
>>152194781
I dunno, Japan and Australia have been rather close friends since the whole WW2 ended.
>>
>>152194615
Some people say it sounds like it.
To me it will always be gel.

>>152194781
And some anon said that this was exactly the excuse they used to call her Gele.

Yeah it's kind of weird, Gele is pronounced Jill as Geelong is Jill - long. This whole use of Gele is perfectly justified if your Australian
>>
>>152194968
>>152194968
No Japanese person would have heard of fucking Geelong.

Well no. No Japanese person not involved in the car export industry would have heard of Geelong.

It's a small city that's only claim to fame is having a good Australian football team

It was most definitely not considered by Alicesoft or Ludo or Maria.
>>
New thread when?
>>
>>152195318
It's called a joke.
>>
>>152195250
It should be Geel not Gele

>>152195202
As I said earlier in this thread I didn't do one for KR or SR because they were fanpatches and that is a complete cunt thing to do.

Since I am paying $35 US (so a fair bit more taking into account exchange rate but I'm happy to do it to support Rance in the west and for the higher resolution) I see no issue with doing a name patch

It probably won't be ready in the first fortnight or so though
