It's a shame you can't do Nagisa first, she's really best girl.

I have to say, Makina's route has actually been very enjoyable so far. Once I got past the initial hump of "God i hate Makina, that's why I skipped this last time" she mellowed out a ton and getting bits and pieces of Yuuji's backstory like this is pretty nifty.

Does anyone here play on a tablet?
My old laptop just died and since reading VNs is pretty much all I used it for I was thinking I would replace it with a nice new tablet. Android sounds like a complete pain as far as compatibility is go and I read a lot on the go meaning screensharing with my PC would tear through my mobile data usage, so I'd probably go with a Windows one. Obviously that'd mean Windows 10 though, is the support for newer VNs there yet? I still run Win7 on my PC so I have no experience with it.

>>160824279
If you've got nothing better to read then sure. At them oment it's making me re-read a bucnh of shit I've already read and not allowing me to skip it because technically it's a new scene that's 95% identical to an earlier scene. Don't think I'd recommend it strongly unless the ending really manages to impress, since none of the game has done that at all. It's a very clumsy attempt at denpa.

I was gonna ask for sauce because I'm not from around here but I just googled the three names in the screenshots and got the answer as my first result.

Amazing the results you get when you try. Just thought I'd share.

>>160825684
You are fucking retarded because the title is literally on the third screenshot.

>>160824549
Compatibility is going to be really shit, most things just straight up won't run on Win10.
Unless you want to play nothing but new releases, and I mean actual new releases, not the English ports of older games we're mostly getting, your best bet is either getting a cheap netbook/laptop again or throwing down some real money and buying a tablet that's powerful enough to run a VM with Win7, maybe something like a Surface. Pretty big investment though if you don't want to do anything but play VNs with it.

You could also try getting a Win8 tablet and changing the OS to Win7 and praying that the drivers work. Win8 and 7 are pretty close to each other so they should for most hardware.

Why would I spend my money if I could get the exact same shit without spending my money?

>>160826412
Why spend money on something I can get for free?

Especially considering VN's tend to be 30+ dollars, that's mad expensive. They're also porn games, which also discourages me from paying for then.

>>160826412
I don't get it either.
30-50$ might seem like a lot but then you look at to video games and compare how much less playtime you get out of them for your dollar and suddenly it seems a lot more worth it.

Something that piqued my curiosity, here. I've asked (in person) six different people about this and they're split even-steven on this, which surprised me.

You have ice cream that is covered in both sprinkles and chocolate. Do you prefer to see that written as

"sprinkle and chocolate-covered ice cream"

or

"sprinkle- and chocolate-covered ice cream"

TECHNICALLY, this is specifically the latter: the perfect example of when to use the Floating Hyphen. However, three of six people I talked to expressed a seemingly irrational dislike/disgust of that. I expected maybe only one person to speak out against it, but three of six seemed really high to me.

So, is my sample size just small, or do readers really dislike floating hyphens that much?

>>160826510
>>160826517
Not seriously expecting this to change your minds, of course, but tragedy of the commons. If no one bought games, the industry would collapse, so choosing to patronize your favourite develops is important in supporting them in continuing to make (and localize) further games.

>>160835375

I actually imagine the lines around it sucked and they only screenshotted this one because it just happened to sound the best. Machine TL isn't actually getting better all that fast, commercial MTL at least.
Also, obligatory "even if MTL becomes 100% perfect, Japanese and English are still so different as to render a significant chunk of the language plain untranslatable so it's still worthwhile to learn"

Are users able to make corrections on the machine's translations? And are those corrections then saved in the program for future reference?

Or is it just a Google translator that always spits out the same gibberish and never improves itself?

30KB, 747x491px

>>160835456
The audience for VNs is mostly assburgers and other assorted autists so using an incorrect form like the former will surely drive them to a frothing rage and they will cum for you when you least expect it.
Thus the latter is the logical option.

>>160835761
VNR has that capability but usually the user line is shown below the MTL line. Can't say for sure in this case.

>>160834617
They aren't, PR guy said so somewhere on reddit if you care to dig it up,

>>160835919
But they said they are on the kickstarter page

>>160835456
no one calls something sprinkle covered so this is a terrible comparison

"with sprinkles"

>>160835895
I see. What I was wondering is if our corrections were sent back to the program so that it could correct itself. Like if 100 people corrected "tree of apples" to "apple tree," the machine would eventually start displaying "apple tree" on its own.

Like those drawing programs where after enough people draw a bicycle, the program can recognise when a bicycle has been drawn on its own.

Anyway, the reason why I want to know is because if it is smart technology - that's what it's called, right? - then I wouldn't mind spending some time reading machine translations and submitting corrections.

>>160835697
i suggest rum and dracu-riot, especially with the scenes at that comfy bar

>>160833717
Conjueror's taste is the prime example of why you should take everything JOPs say about untranslated VNs with a grain of salt.

>>160836049
I definitely don't think it works like that, ha. User translated lines are usually unrecognizable from the original, no real way to learn, and are just plaintext lists in a database as far as I know.

I thought the 'crusade' would start because of some trivial shit like parents are too strict to their children like that black haired childhood friend, to be free from adult rules, not because a literal child molester running free without any repercussion whatsoever after he almost molested one of his student even after the act has been reported to the principal.

>>160836539
Yeah, building a game's drama around trivial shit seems like a good idea

It's not chocolate ice cream.

[Flavour] ice cream topped with chocolate sauce and sprinkles.

Allowing for a third option was a terrible mistake. My example allows for a contextual understanding of being covered if rewritten, but the prose I'm working with doesn't.

>>160835848

It's what I'm going with, yeah, I was just interested.

>>160835996

"with" gives considerably less specific information than "-covered", so it's not an option. Let's just, uh, say that the actual noun in question isn't sprinkles, so meaning would be lost.

I didn't mean it was. I mean if you would rather being doing other things than masturbating then you won't. So occupying your spare time with wholesome activities you enjoy will help kill down masturbating urges. That is, don't sit around on 4chan being bored and looking at cute anime girls with a boner forming, rather, play video games, read books, just do things you like and poof masturbation goes to the back of your head.

Unless your libido is really that meme-heavy in which case shit dude I'm sorry.

All you need to do is translate it to what works best in the language you want to use. In this case, English.

Who cares about prose? The meaning and the way it's processed by the reader matters more. Unless you were doing an actual poem or song, like "I am the bone of my sword".

>>160837452
Why not use something clever like "le sprinkles" for example?

The way prose is arranged/presented is directly linked to how it's processed by the reader, though. Much of what I do as an editor relates to sentence syntax and word order rather than mere copyediting.

It fits with the rebellious children theme. They believe their parents are too 'foolish' to understand them, not knowing that their parents also has their own set of problems and shit. Same with the parents, they think children should follow everything they said without any disobedience, while not knowing or don't care that children are human beings that has their own feelings. It could make a good social commentary on strict asian parenting and family values, while still keeping things light and not too dark.

Oh well, I'll see where the plot goes.

>You might think I’m overreacting – people usually argue that it’s just a nukige, so I shouldn’t be expecting anything. Honestly, I don’t think I was asking for that much, and I doubt it’s that hard to write at least a semi-competent romance, but BiMan failed to deliver even that. The protagonist being a rapist didn’t help, either – how or why am I supposed to root for this guy and his romance from this point on? And don’t get me wrong, I’m not pissing on love stories. I like romance just fine in my games. But this really was just a vile trainwreck of a VN that took probably less than an hour to completely disgust me. And that’s quite the feat.

Honestly this is the problem. People say to not look for anything out of nukige precisely because you end up burned like he did here. I don't think it's a vile idea to enjoy good nukige or like nukige with good stories, but you should NEVER expect a nukige to be well written before you read through it, EVER.

Anon, if your body actually feels hungry, you should eat something nutritious.

There was a Twitter scuffle between some of MG's employees over someone jokingly using "grab her by the pussy" and a bunch of other employees getting triggered over it in a post-election salt incident. It was stupid and at the end of it all the involved parties said they'd talked about it between themselves and settled the matter, although there was some salty passive-aggressive shit like >>160843893 on Twitter afterwards.

A few quotes from it have been forced into memehood by a dedicated few shitposters, although I'll admit that "vile asshole" has a nice ring to it.

Perhaps separately, the resident anti-MG shitposter(s) has resumed his/their old butthurt spam. The posting style is very distinct, it's always very terse and short, and constantly attempts to derail the current topic. It usually attempts to drag the topic back to boycotting/shittalking MG yet again when the conversation threatens to stray literally anywhere else besides it. You can see it here: >>160840150 >>160842159

To give you an idea of how forced it is, when the guy trying to perpetuate the this topic on /jp/ got banned, literally half the thread disappeared in an instant. Remember when Jewcob from Fakku tried to shill on /h/ and then 90% of the thread got nuked in the blink of an eye for samefagging? It was basically that on a smaller scale. Don't believe for a moment that most people actually care about twitter drama this much, most of it is perpetuated by a couple of persistent posters.

I hope that this clears that up and that you were asking honestly, and not the aforementioned samefagger trying to find a new way to bring the topic up in a more subtle way.

Maitetsu scenes work exactly in same way as Monobeno, and they are still "part of game", displayed in appropriate places of heroine route. If you are going to spread some FUD, at least play original first.

The difference being that in Princess Evangile, the H-scenes still happen, they're just fade-to-black, and, in Corona Blossom, the H-scenes are segmented "what-if" scenarios that don't even occur in the main story.

>>160849298

Would you be willing to accept the replacement of h-scenes with "a fade to black then a transition to the next day" if it meant that VN publishers get more revenue as a result from being able to publish on Steam (and thus, potentially make better VNs)?

I thought the scenes after the h-scene where several major characters reacted to Fione and Caim's relationship were more interesting than the h-scene itself (especially Eris's reaction, fuck Eris)
On the other hand, you'd be depriving people who really liked Fione the chance to fap to her.

>>160849762
So long as the original product is available in some form for purchase, of course.

fade to black is a reasonable cop-out for making something all-ages, writing it out as if it never happened is absolutely unacceptable.

Still is a cop-out though showing they value money more so than artistic integrity, which while being understandable is still disrespectful to fans.

Mind you this is all assuming there is no way for the user to access the original version which contains all the original unaltered/removed content. Nekopara did it fine. You had a version for the steam audience and a version for the original, IMHHW did it wrong though by butchering so many aspects of the original and refusing to release the original version.

anon pls. It's not censorship it's a form of miscommunication.

>>160850056
Every single piece of written word is a form of censorship, as every language is limited in some way and cannot directly express the thoughts in one's head.

>>160850147
I'm correct. Translations are literally censorship.

>>160850260
Japanese isn't limited.

You guys sure love to entertain this buffoon

If VN producers get more money, they'd hypothetically have more money to make better VNs

>>160850095

though admittedly, companies that have been expanding to the west have been making shit cash-ins lately (with the exception of Harmonia)
hopefully minori's next VN (which is being specially made for the west) is good

>localized vns are literally rewrites
>you will never be able to enjoy the original work
feels bad man

If they only censor porn scenes and leave pillow talks and such shit then Im ok with this.
Can fap to porn CGs on panda.

>>160850434

Learn Japanese you lazy faggot.

>>160850434
The JOPs will never tell you this, but sometimes there are cases where the translation ends up surpassing the original work.

>>160850394
Publishers != developers.
And even developers getting more money almost never made them make better VNs. It made them arrogant, unwilling to consider interests of core fans and seeking "mainstream" attention, switching to all-ages and other shit.
Game becoming huge success is literally worst thing that could happen with good dev, as he instantly becomes terrible dev after it.

She's a very kinky girl

>>160850753
Is she from Kinki?

>>160849762
Fade to black is still pretty shit. If you're going to ax the H then they better offer something in exchange like additional CGs like a lot of all ages releases do. If they add nothing in return then I'm not paying.

>>160850753
For you

>>160850696
Not him but I'm pretty sure people out there will fawn over the beautiful visuals and big tits.

>>160850518
How can you even judge wether or not the translation is better if you can't read the original?

>>160850753
I want to piss at her face.

>>160850147
Unfortunately, claiming that translation itself is a form of censorship is a common defense people use whenever somebody complains about content being removed. I'm not sure if it's elitism or if they actually believe it.

>>160850618
Except for memecats. They started with nothing, exploded in popularity and so far have been improving with every release.
