Alicesoft/Rance General

Down with Sillfags. Praise be to Kanami-chan.

Would be funny if we just made a thread and then Rance X info comes around in a few hours.

>>187868491
We would just have to create a new thread.

>>187868491
Sheila will be in Rance 10, so it's still close enough.

>>187868491

Sheila a hot as fuck

I'm getting impatient with Evenicle. I really want to sink my teeth into it.

>>187869912
I think you'll have to be patient. I'm not sure if you started studying Japanese right now, if you'd be able to read it before it gets released in English. That being said, I'm studying Japanese right now myself, so hopefully in December I'll be starting to get a hang of it.

>>187870475
I decided recently to study art seriously, and that leaves me so mentally exhausted I don't feel like I have the energy to study Japanese as well.

How many Alicesoft OSTs are on youtube? I tried looking for several such as Only You and Persiom and only found a song or two instead of the soundtrack.

>>187870809
I look forward to the day you draw us the Kalar matriarchy where each queen is drawn in the colour or style she's named after. At that point, I might know what a Reset colour is supposed to be.

>>187870982
it looks like cuteness

>>187868695
Sill is more like cotton candy.

>>187871328
Used goods

>>187872092
Is there anyone who isn't used goods at this point? Disregarding Rance's children.

I don't understand this hate against Sill.
Sill is Rance's slave. Are you saying Rance has a bad taste?
Unless you guys are just memeing, like how Rance treats her badly and says she's a D rank.
I can't understand why people would hate Sill, Rance's personal slave. He hasn't gotten rid of her for a reason.

>>187872170
For women, we have: Sel, Sillbarrel, Bird's old girlfriend's twin sister (probably), that ghost from Rance I, Hornet, Ice Fairy dark lord, the mentally challenged youkai, Amaterasu, Papaya's BFF and her level 3 magic casting idiot, Alice, Dark Alice and Karma.

>>187872092
She was only fucked by Rance.

>>187872462
Her character is very flawed but at this point there's people that just meme and exaggerate because they want to look cool with the hannies, see>>187872092

>>187872795
There's way more virgins than the ones you mentioned.

>>187872997
Feel free to thoroughly list them all.

>>187872462
I'd ask her not to cast the contraception spell.

>>187872795
Getting fucked in the ass still makes you used goods.

>>187873118
Jericho, Lavender, Sepia, Arcy Julietta, Chizuko (probably), Annis, Karma, Afra, Onoha, Ran (in canon), Reset, Hanty, Miki, Hornet, Silky, La Saizel, La Hawzel, Warg (probably), and I guess Alice and Dark Alice since you counted them.

>>187873930
I heard that the canon for Ran was that she was so incompetent that she just died at the bottom of the oil cave or whatever and Rance was the one to save Souun, that seems in line with Rance having fucked Ran earlier since why would Rance go to an oil dungeon otherwise. Oil is gross.

>>187873930
And Sel because I forgot about her somehow.

>>187874374
This is also Ran.

>>187874484
I think I should go to sleep soon.
I meant that Rance fucked her since she didn't die from the phiel ring. At least I hope it was Rance, it could have been the 666 boyfriend.

>>187874125
I believe it was explicitly stated that she was a virgin (don't remember where) even though it doesn't make sense.

>>187874621
Maybe the gay bird mentioned it in Rance Quest, who knows.

>>187874614
Nah, the 666 boyfriend wasn't Ran's, but of Elena the bar girl.

Will we see his debut in X?

>>187874490
I wonder who in her family replaced her as head of her family. I'm assuming that an engagement to Souun wasn't enough to have both families fall under a single name without an heir being born.

>>187874931
Didn't they start dating after Ran's ring was removed? It's not cheating if you're not going out.

>have your own route in Sengoku Rance, one of the most popular installments
>die canonically
>be forgotten forever
>some other whore in the game gets revived in a later game

>>187875238
That whore had some stiff competition. Orochi girl didn't come back, after all.

>>187875238
>some other whore in the game gets revived in a later game
Good, Chinu is better.

>>187875368
I liked Ran more than her. Chinu is also really creepy after she gets revived, I really don't like the eye thing.

>>187875170
Elena, the bar girl, started dating after 3/4 of the witches were freed from the phiel rings. I think Alicesoft just put that there so you couldn't have sex with her again...
It doesn't really matter since she's just a side character, but hey, maybe she will become a heroine in X?

>>187872462
She is boring as shit, takes up heaps of scenes and is basically irrelevant beyond being designated main girl.

>>187875490
Meanwhile, some dude died in a forest and we didn't even get to see the fourth apostle get freed.

>>187872462
That reason is because the writers put her in to balance out early Rance but haven't done anything with the character since beyond the same old Sill is missing plot.

>>187875678
And in chapter one she says its a dangerous day so she can't.

Does anyone know the plot of Night Comes? I'm listening to the soundtrack and it has a few good tracks. I'd be interested in playing it once my Japanese is functional if the plot is even mildly interesting.

>>187875334
Did Rance kill them all? The one who got away was able to escape because she had a shell. You'd think that getting a single shell from a giant snake would be a cakewalk for the Orochi girls, even after he died.

>>187877495
They are sacrificed(as in they fucking die) but their souls are bound to Orochi and they become Orochi girls, so if he dies their souls are released.

>>187878040
I wonder if Kuma was irritated that she slept with a bunch of men for no reason after Orochi died.

>>187879049
I'm under the impression that she's the one who brought those two guys from Rance VI back to life the second time.

>>187879191
In retrospect its possible. Phil Rings in 2 and the town of Koo were her/based on her work.

>>187879191
No, the Crowns were Zombies which are different than polluted besides I don´t think that she can actually bring anyone back from the dead.

>>187879516
Sel killed them the second time, so I'm assuming someone else of the faith can undo what Sel did.

Who's supposed to be the strongest human now? Including magic and shit.

>>187879994
ANNIS

>>187879994
There is some very strong and around the same level. But currently there isn't one clearly a step above the rest like Thomas was. Not counting Rance near end of most games.

>>187880918
Kenshin kicked his ass though.

Late game right? I used the autumn forest, it's not quite like the original place but it's enough for grinding.

>>187883071
I've tried but can't seem to find any of the eagle orbs (the blue ones).

>>187883696

You're gonna have to fight a bit to get them, when the bar hits 40 that's when you get eagle orbs.

anybody knows how to find Ferris in Rance VI?

Rance Quest Magnum final boss

Anybody have any tips for this fight? I've tried swapping in reset with the level 40 dmg reduction passive, but usually I can only get the boss down to 40% or so before I run out of healing. I probably do need to grind more but who is worth grinding other than rance? Thanks

>>187891571
This is the party I had for the final boss. Full recovery on healers helps a lot.

>>187891571
It's been forever since I last played, but I remember my final party being Rance, Kenshin, Crook, Sachiko, and Reset. I probably grinded a lot, but I never needed 2 healers. Reset's debuff might have helped with that.

>the games have basically just been going through Kichikuou Rance plot
Pretty lame desu, hope they got something good in store.

>>187893587
VI is radically different to the Zeth plot in KR.
Sengoku is radically different to the Japan plot in KR.

Going to the Hanny Building in South (is that where it was?) and having TADA retcon the whale.

Sheila isn't bad and is definitely a lot better in the modern canon than in KR, but her body type and hair are eeriely similar to Lia. They aren't exactly the same, but it's jarring how similar the Helman Princess and the Leazas Queen look.

He left on his own actually.

Is there any way to make Rance Quest any fun? I can only stand to do a few missions a day and I really like the story events but the gameplay is so fucking boring. I'm at like level 30ish and theres been no real roadblock thus far but every mission is so much fucking fighting for so little story, even with the longest possible encounter timer you fight incredibly often especially during levels where you have to find something and its not obvious where it is. Maybe I'm just a bitch but I'm really struggling to get going and I wanted to beat this and 9 before 10 came out. Any tips?

>>187903510
Only pick a core group of characters to level up.

>>187903375
>>187903404

There was no big falling out like the BUY HARUKA but he always had a little bit of a conflict with some people on here, he liked to bite back a lot whenever anyone said something at least that's how I remember it.

>>187903640
Yeah but in the end he left on his own rather than getting driven off the way Maria was.

He even played through Pastel Chime II with a few of us here like a month or two after Buy Haruka.

>>187903510

Your ability to enjoy the game is equal to your ability to enjoy the grind, channel your inner disgaea and make the grind a part of you.

>>187903726

Yeah your right just throwing in what I remember.

>>187903510
Let the grind become you. It's bullshit yes, but I liked it more than collecting god damn orbs every few minutes in VI.

>>187903616
This helps. Try to level up a few more of the main characters though since You may need them at a certain level for story quests I think

>>187881932
>but by the end of their particular adventures Rance ended up being stronger than them
More like about as strong as them. Their caps are high enough that they can match him for levels in the end game.
03's final boss not withstanding.

>>187893587
The only game that remotely follows the Kichikuou plot is IX, and even that is a whole lot different.

VI, Sengoku and Quest are totally original plots that at best abstractly follow some of the stuff that can happen in Kichikuou.

>>187872462
I enjoy Rance and Sill's interactions a lot, but there's no denying that Sill has no real character outside of her relationship with Rance. She works well for showing us the softer side of Rance, but I don't think that makes up for her being as one note as she is. If she had any notable relationships with any of the other characters, I think I'd have a much better general opinion of her.

In comparison, Kanami, Shizuka and even Maria also have pretty entertaining and unique relationships with Rance, but they also have clear personalities and relationships beyond him.

>>187907714
And from Quest onwards we see a lot of Rance's softer side elsewhere. Especially with Reset.

>>187907714

If they did anything with Sill's former life before she became a slave she could be interesting, anything at all really there's plenty to use.

>>187907887
Well they should have done that in VI. Even before meeting Gandhi, Rizna continually brought up her past in Zeth and she had searched out her family before.
Sill had only left Zeth 4 year before and not only didn't she even bring up her family but there wasn't even any sort of reaction to meeting any of the Zeth big shots.

>>187907887
Rance VI managed to show us Rance messing up her whole country without improving Sill at all. It was the occasion to see her family or frineds too.

Does every single person with FR have events/skits in Rance 6?

>>187907887
The complete lack of any Sill focus in VI basically sealed her fate as being a bad character. There was so much that they could've done. Even just having her go off to find Rance on her own instead of being kidnapped into Ice Flame on his orders would have been something.

>>187908125
Take Quest for instance, Sachiko was actually surprised that Rance could just go and meet the Queen of Leazas just like that.

>>187908181
All of the girls do.
Kimchi does as well, even if she isn't playable.
Of the guys, only Patton, Rocky, Abert, and Tamanegi have events.

>>187908098
I think they're saving Sill development for 10, rather than do parts of it in another game and then have a >10 year gap for the rest of it, it makes more sense to do it all in one game. Since she's not appearing in almost every game like, say, Maria, they can't keep a continuously developing character-focused sideplot for her. So instead large parts of 10 will probably be set aside for a proper and in-depth Sill arc.

>>187908305
Thanks, I was wondering if I should waste presents on Ghandi or not. I assume Urza has some as well then, well now that she is in my party.

how does Shizuka manage to stay the best girl for decades

>>187908404
I think Sill is just a one dimension character who is there to show "oh Rance is a good guy deep down" and is never going to get any development. The actual development there is just Rance being able to actually say that he loves her rather than being tsundere, which again isn't anything from Sill.

And even if that was the case it wouldn't excuse the complete lack of anything in VI from such an important character.

>>187908305
>Of the guys, only Patton, Rocky, Abert, and Tamanegi have events.
Only Patton has repeatable FR events on the base screen like the girls do.

Rocky only has a handful of non-repeatable events on the base screen. All of his other FR events happen in dungeons.

Abert has no FR events in dungeons, so you can only raise his FR at the base screen. While he has no repeatable events, he has a lot of one shot ones.

Tamanegi only has a few FR events in dungeons and on the base screen. Otherwise you raise his FR gradually as you capture more galmonsters for him.

Bernard has no events at all.

All other male characters join too late to have any events.

>>187908489
She has green hair and actual character development unlike the ice cube.

>>187908429
>I assume Urza has some as well then
I didn't realize you were that far in. Urza happens to be the only girl in the game without FR events.

>>187908489
Well she appears a lot, has actual character development, has her own story arcs, has relationships with people other than Rance and is hot. Plus tsundere, with an actually good reason to be tsun, is good.

>>187908492
Well we'll find out who's right when 10 comes out, won't we. Looking forward to it.

>>187908404
Would be pretty weird if they did that.

I think it'd be hard to do at this point, since she's established as so bland that developing her too much would ironically make her seem like too much of a different character.

>>187908489
She's mediocre though.

>>187908649
>>187908404
What can they actually develop about Sill at this point.

>>187908404
All they can really for Sill in X is have her feel like she's grown apart from Rance now that he's developed a life outside of her, only for Rance to prove that she'll always be his No.1. Which is basically exactly what she does in Kichikuou.
Sill just doesn't have enough going on with her character to give it any room for exploring, unfortunately. She's defined entirely by her relationship with Rance, and, since she has no personality or goals of her own outside of that, there are only so many things you can do with the two of them.

>>187908687
How is Shizuka mediocre, be reasonable

>>187908719
She gets amnesia and no longer loves Rance.

>>187908779
And then she regains her memory which is the problem with all amnesia plots.

>>187908489
Great design, is the only one of the main girls who can give as good as she gets when it comes to Rance's bullying, has her own character arc that takes place over multiple games, and is always useful as a party member.

Why do the stats except for attack and probably maagg.resist in rance 9 feel so underwhelming? Like, is there even point to skill any of them?

>>187908849
Okay, let's just kill her off then. It's easier. Have Kayblis eat her or something.

>>187908489
Equal relationship with Rance.

>>187908983
Kay-chan gets revenge for Rance fucking his waifu.

>>187908981
You get a bonus when you have multiples of 2 in each stat (It fills in one of the empty black stars).

>>187907714
One problem is that they don't really give a reason for why Rance cares so much about Sill relative to the other women in his life. All I can assume is some kind of reverse stockholm syndrome. And that makes all of his "d'aaaw, he really isn't all that bad, see?" moments with her seem pretty unearned.

>>187909073
I know that, but for most of the characters they seem to be useless compared to poinnts that you basically lose.

>>187909081
In my opinion is because Sill is definitely his. She belongs to him and someone like Rance, as shown by his reaction to Kenshin, likes having the certainty of that.

I wonder how much does Lia pay Kanami for her services.

>>187908590
I also just got lil avenger. Is she someone I should use presents towards?

>>187909484
Kanami had a pretty good deal out of it.

>>187909484
Lia saved her life and lets her live with her. Ninjas are also expected to live and die for their masters. Kanami probably gets a small weekly allowance and that's it.

>>187909906
She has a pretty good room in Rance Castle.

>>187909939
Ah yes, the ceiling.

>>187910134
She gets to watch the great Rance sama have sex every night.

>>187909939
She lives there full time now. She probably gets payed the same as when she was working for Lia.

What level was Rance when you guys fought Abert for the final fight? He's wrecking my shit at level 61. Hell just getting to him was a pain in the ass. The drummer gal monster pushed my shit in hard.

>>187910518
You restore all your characters health with items after the final battle before Abert.

Also use Seyadatara in that battle before him

>>187882550
Go to the disposal dungeon. You can raise people's level caps while you're there.

>>187905578
Not him, but that reminds me of playing Breath of Fire II.If characters aren't in your party, they don't get experience and I didn't like the monkey character, so I almost never used him in combat. More than half way in, you need to have him fight another boss monkey all by himself and the last save point is located after you're forbidden from leaving the area, preventing you from grinding. If I wasn't such a cheater, I would have needed to restart the entire game because the boss was one shotting the monkey.

>>187910597
>Seyadatara
I still need 3 more gals. Is the best way to find them just to go into the girls prison and spam search? Cow Tamer, Tokko, and Thunder Taiko are all I have left.

>>187913486
yep

>>187910518

I pulled it off at 60ish but it was a bit of a cheese with Caloria being immune to everything in the front row and slowly pelting him from the back, the problem is taking out Aniss. A tip I guess is that you don't need Rance out unless you are attacking Albert, keep him safe until you need him.

>>187913486
I think you can find Cow Tamer in the mine dungeon, that might be faster. I don't remember what a Tokko is and I was lucky enough to get a Thunder Taiko in one of the last monster orbs leading up to the mansion.

Has mangagamer released any type of sales data for Rance VI and 5D? I'm hoping that we actually get Rance IX and even X localised. And maybe even the remakes. I know I'm dreaming big here.

>>187918874
They will obviously happen sooner or later

VI is the best selling MG release since its release.

>>187918874
The most we got was the ranking for the top 10 sales for the year.

Where Rance 5D + VI managed to get 4th despite having about a month of pre-order sales and a week of normal sales. It also managed to stay on the Top 5 weekly sales most of the time throughout 2017, so it's obviously going to be the number 1 best seller for 2017.

Only way to top it is probably the vanillafags and Senranfags combined together with the Alicesoftfags to make Evenicle number 1 or something.

Russian or Sheila

>>187908758
Isn't that how Rance intended the relationship between the two to be?

Gentle reminder to all you Niwas that we'll probably have two VGL friendlies this month. We already voted to change the team roster https://implyingrigged.info/wiki//hanny/_roster

One of our opponents will almost certainly be /mggg/ (Monster Girl Quest) but do people have any other preferred opponents?

>>187937643
This means we win by default.

>The info is Rance X is delayed until late 2018

>>187918540
They have to be alive to be having a shit time. That's why Nighcisa was such a bad Demon Lord

>>187939173
Nah, there's despair in death, and your race being annihilated at a fast pace in such large numbers inflicts a massive fear on humans. Ludo probably had a massive boner at the time. The problem is that fun can only last so much if you just kill them all, and the game would be over quickly, but Ludo is too dumb to foresee that. Only Planner did.

Please update the Rance IV character image gallery for the upcoming event.

>>187940435
>the Rance IV character image gallery
we have that?

>>187940435
I'll make an imgur gallery

Do we even have that many drawfags to justify an event?

>>187939173
Planner was freaking out, Ludo probably found it fun enough.

>>187940115
Considering everything is Ludo in the end, he doesn't care about the future because he can always remake it. This is the guy that genocided the Dragon Race because they were too boring instead of waiting to see if they might devolve into in-fighting.

>>187942024
We have had regular drawfag weekends for the last year.

>>187942024
No, but that won't stop us

Speaking of drawfag events tomorrow it is Maria for the Japanese

>>187942371
I know. But I feel like we had more drawfags back then.

>>187932803
Plan for the /mggg/ match is for both teams to run super aggressive tactics and go for a goalfest.

I was going to vote serious too, but once I saw "Die Peruele", I knew what I had to pick.

>>187948861
It won't happen, but if anyone deserves to be raped by Medusa in X, it's her.

>>187947340
A very popular male seiyuu who's been working since late 90s, oftenly typecast as handsome assholes.

>>187949082
And more importantly, Tentomon.

>>187949082
He has his own wikipedia page, wow.
Is he better than Rance's voice actor, though? ( Yuichi Nakamura)

>>187949541
We don't actually know Rance's VA.

>>187949597
I thought it was suspected as him.
But why don't we know who the voice actor of Rance is?

>>187949541
He's a decent seiyuu in my opinion, just rarely does anything other that a douchebag bishounen. Nakamura is a better seiyuu overall, but they are both good.

>>187949768
Because Rance's seiyuu used a pseudonym and no one actually knows who is he really. There were a few guesses and assumptions, but no one ever confirmed anything.

>>187950075
That's a shame. I wanted to hear more of his voice acting.
But to be clear, the VA of the OVA and 03 are the same, correct?

>>187950409
Yes.

>>187914607
Any luck?

>>187920118
Vanillaware makes porn?

>>187926382
I'm guessing Puerelle did something if her dying is considered nearly as popular as the other two options.

>>187948031
The original? The soundtrack was the best thing about the original Ys.

>>187950915
It's a meme.

>>187950784
Not sure how you got that from that post, but vanilla is a term used to indicate those kind of standard romance games, like moeges and the like. The pure-love type where the protagonist engages in consensual sex. More Rouga and not Rance.

>>187951465
Only consensual? Rouga gets raped by a drug infused sister/secretary at some point, so it's not all consensual sex with him.

>>187951654
From what I recalled, he was perfectly willing to do it.

We are talking about Aya, right?

>>187951170
yes

>>187951861
The red haired sister of the guy that canonically dies during the district arc.

>>187952269
Yeah, that's her. But canonically dies? What? That's just route split.

>>187952498
But Kunagi is canon

>>187951334

Uh, why did Arios lost all his heroic powers? Just because he turned 20?

>>187957792
I'm under the impression that the editor of Rance Quest Magnum is going to be unhappy with their workload. I'm not sure if RQM has more text than Shin Koihime Musou, but it's got to be close.

>>187959547
It's Pi-R. He'll be fine.

>>187959441
I don't know if 20 is the age but yes. The Hero of the world loses his power upon reaching a certain age

>>187959441
>Just because he turned 20?
Yes, the Hero loses his power when they are 20 but at the very least he should count himself lucky that he didn´t lose them in the midddle of a fight like one poor sucker.

>>187959580
They better give him a STEM of the year award or something once he's done, then.

Rouga never gets raped, the only one that came remotely close to raping him was Senna.

>>187961945
I wouldn't know about that. I never bothered with her since she was going to leave my party in 25 turns anyways.

>>187908759
Maybe her prefers her with red hair. That one image of Shizuka but as a dark red head was pretty fantastic.

>>187961895

>>187955313

Don't play with my heart like that anon...

>>187963953
For someone who had played SR for a few years, I should have known better than to keep going right after defeating the 4th batch of Angels but sometimes the dick wants what the dick wants and it won´t listen to common sense.

>>187968456
At least there wasn't any real consequence this time around.

>>187962271
Fight Sensouji instead of Gokuren so you won't miss out next time.

>>187957792
I've done some calculating.
Assuming this progress is happening each time then Aru will be 24% done with SR by the end of the month whereas Maria will be 52% done at that point.

The following update Aru will be at 31% and Maria, who has caught back up with her translation at 60% (taking this as a hard value) ought to be able to reach 62% or so.

Afterwards, considering RQ's script and Maria's decent speed, I'd wager she can hit 4% every month if focusing on that only. At that pace, both translations would be done at exactly the same time. That would be at the very end of February.

The question is, how long will editing/testing take?

>>187969115
That math doesn't add up. 40%/4% = 10 months, so that's July excluding the time taken to get to the initial 60% and also excludes testing, editing and other factors. Unless you meant February 2019, that seems unrealistic.

Added another 1500 lines since last week, about 1000 lines of various UI and event stuff. Most of it done by myself.

Have another 5000 lines that are technically translated but need to be run through and sanity tested because translators are not to be trusted. So we could be past 10% but it all needs to be edited. Legit have not spliced it into the game yet because these fuckers can't even make the line numbers match up, how can you not get such simple instructions, the absolute state of mankind etc etc. But will make a video tomorrow..

It's been a tough week hannies but I'm still here. Hope you've been well.

>>187969952
Nice

>>187969952
Sounds like it can be rough being an employer. I'm still chipping away at Japanese. Who knows, maybe by the time Daiakuji's translation is released, Japanese media will sound like more than just gibberish with some words I know mixed in.

>>187969560
That's 4% per update. I believe those are every two weeks. Unless I am wrong on that. I can't imagine Aru only translating 7% of Sengoku a month

>>187971105
Maria was definitely not going 4% per two weeks before the MangaGamer deal. Now that she's being payed for it, she might be going faster, but I'm not expecting her to go 8% a month.

Tori and Shade are overrated, IX and 03 are on the level of VI (and over a bit from being modern), and all over SR, RQM too.

From the bit we know about X it looks like it has everything to be the best Rance, only thing left for it to be perfect is it being at least partially voiced on the ADV parts.

She was going 1% a week, if I recall correctly. Hence why, she wouldn't be completed with Quest until two years later.

I thought it was closer to 1/2% a week, but it's been quite a while.

>>187970991
>Sounds like it can be rough being an employer.
My bitterness probably is a manifestation of the 20-30 hours of editing and testing that I now have to do this weekend.

Also I will basically need to write a custom editor plugin if I want to save myself the time for this in the future. Just have the translators use that.

I suppose I could do it on the beach, that might make it better. Is it still summertime according to Alice?

Okay, you might be right. I've just gotten to an exercise to identify which image corresponds to spoken dialogue and one of the illustrations is a girl on the roof of a school in tears past the fence about to jump off and a man is running towards her to say something. I wasn't expecting my elementary level Japanese guide to get to this point until at least the second book. I'm not sure why she took off her shoes though.

>>187977982
Those kind of same sound for completely different words really makes you appreciate the kanji.

>>187980852
They gave me the text without kanji so I can practice reversing from the informal negative form to the base form. The first two sentences gave me Kiru and it took me like 10 minutes to figure out that both verbs conjugate differently as I figured they only differentiated in the context for which they were used and then I had to search for which was a U and which was a RU verb. So far I've been able to wing the RU vs U verbs, but if more stuff like this pops up, I think I'm going to have to really memorize every single RU verb I learn.

>>187981318

There's like 10 irregular verbs tops that I can think of.

Still needs to be tested for line agreement and edited, but this is the kind of stuff I get.

>>187974456
Yeah agreed.

I did a MT for Daiakuji last week and it's really very bad. Hilariously, I then was contacted by google staff since it was something like $50 worth of API usage (i did not remove duplicates). But judging by how badly the MT butchered the job, I would not really want to play a game that was entirely MT.

But UI patch + 35% content patch with the rest MT? It was okay for Daiteikoku. We'll see how playable a fifteen percent patch is for Daiakuji.

I would really appreciate it if some anon would post how much localization companies charge for their service.

Steam takes 30% of sales, should I take the same? more? Less? The entirety of Steam sales, but let them take all the patch money? Pay some licensing fee up front, take all the dough? How are those calculated? What does sakuragame charge?

>>187983417
Wait are you selling this?

>>187983631
I am planning on selling some unrelated games on steam to pay for my costs of translation

>>187983417
You can't sell unlicensed translations. I'm also skeptical of whether Alicesoft would license you.

Machine translations get fed to the spider.

>>187983417
Did you throw it in google translate and they contacted you to pay them back for server fees? If so, I've never seen that before.

>>187983729
Sakuragame seem to be doing okay but they're Chinese based I believe.

>>187983739
Machine translations are given as characters to Atlach-Nacha?

So there are species and dimensions that Ludo Rathowm didn't have a hand in creating. Doesn't this suggest that there are similar or greater beings than Ludo?

>>187984279
Yes.

>>187984279
All Ludo created was the continent. Harmonitt probably created the God's Realm as well, so you could say it was indirectly created by Ludo, but that's basically all they created in the vast universe.

I haven't told anyone IRL (except one guy) that I am doing this. Do your friends know you like AS stuff?

>>187983773
I signed up for the API with my credit card. They probably just thought I was some serious customer since I then sent lines at max speed for fourteen hours.

According to the TOS, google does not know what text you sent it to be translated via the API, so it couldn't have been about the content.

R-right?

>>187983863
I'm trying to figure out what SG's rates are. Would this interest you?

Maria might be able to translate faster since she's paid. Probably not faster than Aru.

Aru will likely go faster from this point on. An average of 10% every two weeks wouldn't be bad as that would lead to 100% in January. That might be a little optimistic, but IIRC, he translated Evenicle pretty fast. I think he lept from about 83% to 100% in two weeks. At that point assuming editing isn't too far behind, Sengoku is likely to come out Spring/Summer 2017.

Maria might be able to go 4% every two weeks because she's paid now. Assuming 1 month is necessary to TLC up to 60%, that would mean completion in July, so a release at late 2018 isn't impossible. The editor has to work fast though.

For the longest time, back when Sengoku Rance was the only translated game, I had only ever played the game during the fall. Because of that, I didn't know that the loading screen changes

I'm not sure what that is but I'm particular to 3.5x

Ah, I miscalculated. RQM would be translated by February.

Well, at the very least, I don't expect her to go slower than 4% per month.

IT means I'm playing at max speed because I'm highly fucking impatient.

Plus I hate how Rance starts with 1/3 the troops as everyone else.

Is Rance's unit all pretty women? It should be and now I'm kinda annoyed it's not.

No.

You should know if you've played it, Mongolianoid.

Fuck, you are right.

>>187988473
Honestly anything past 6x has serious problems with click registration.

I think 3.2x is probably the best speed.

You can replace it with all beautiful women if you get the elites from the sat bonus, then recruit Leila but lose her to xavier. Then there is a low-priority beginning of turn event that lets your replace your unit with elite female guards from leazus.

I don't believe this. I've played maybe 20 times and I've never gotten this.
