I like lolis.

Also, don't forget to pirate root double cause fuck dovac.

Is this place really reddit enough for anyone to actually buy something from sekai?
I don't give a shit about your god damn mugs.

tfw no gf

I love ageless lolis.

...

Yuri ghosts.

She's gonna fix your pedophilia.

So which booths do you plan to visit?

She only made it worse. Specially with that femdom scene.
Loli femdom a best.

> So omega you let a loli dom you.

Low test.

But I'm a 500 year old goth-loli vampire.

>not becoming a 1000 years old demon loli's sex slave
Suzuka-sama would be disappointed.

...

You luagh, but I don't you'd be willing to drop $40 for it like most people here.

Is Seinarukana any good? I've played it until the first school attack, and holy shit I want to poke my eyes out. Does the gameplay/story redeem its shitty characters?

Did you ever play Aselia? The gameplay is like that, only quicker and better. The story and characters are worse than Aselia's from what I've seen so far, though.

Why is it not lolion? Who the hell translated that shit?

Not for anything Conjueror touches.

I too like to abstain from good translations and instead read meme ones.

You must be an ESL.

lolicon*

How long does it take for Rewrite to get interesting?

From the first minute. It has the best common route of all time, I still haven't found anything even half as funny.

Err ... Conjueror's probably one of the few people in the Industry capable of translating Dies Irae.

Ugh... I don't think so.

Garejei. Anyone currently in the fan-TL scene, and most "professional" TLs would definitely butcher it with their inability to convey writing style.

2 weeks, I belive

You'd better believe it.

Gare is Conjuerors editor. They work together.

And yeah, it's true, there is less than a handful of people who could do it at this moment.

Did moogy tell you that?

This here is someone not familiar with Dies Irae.

Did he or not?
I'm not saying anyone is capable of translating it

I'm not the same person as he, but Moogy doesn't seem to be going around saying it. Garejei's had excerpts up on his blog for a while now, and based on those excerpts he's widely seen as one of the few people capable of wrestling the Japanese into some sort of English equivalent.

Yes, and Gare is the exact same guy who worked on translated Tokyo Babel that seems to have a few people here buttmad. Again, no one has ever commented on the quality of the fight scenes and chuuni stuff, but they'll latch on to Miley Cyrus and Setsuna-poo, as if that's relevant for the difficult stuff in Dies Irae

You seem to have something confused here newfriend. People dislike Babel, the game itself, not the translation.

Both the translation and game is bad.

Only the latter is true.

So uh Root Double announcement came out of nowhere

Hope there'll be a quick torrent

The translation is fine.

If you say so, user-poo.

Yes the translation on his blog reads well. But then why does Tokyo Babel read like it was translated by someone dumb trying to seem smart?
I agree that the action is translated well but all the dialogue is so so awful and I don't mean the stupid "yummers" or "grinnity-grin" stuff. You can see when you read it, a superfluous word or pause here, some English that doesn't quite fit there. It makes the characters sound dumb and inconsistent.

I thought Gare just edited it. Did he translate the action too or something?

A translation that's without honorifics and is excessive in localization is never good.

Speak for yourself. With all this complaining about Seinarukana on this thread its only anchoring my own beliefs further.

I concur.

Apparently they've said on Tokyo Babel 'the writing was casual/quirky slang in Japanese, so tried to emulate that quirky/slang feeling in English' or something. It's possible, I suppose.

Back up the bus, passive-agressive user. Heavy localisation doesn't mean turning every character into a brain damaged eight year old.

Even if anybody can translate Dies Irae, nobody will because Light has no interest in expanding overseas and nobody can afford to pay for the accompanying expenses.
All you EOPs are always going to desire to have it translated and always wonder good it is forever.
The only salvation EOPs have is subahibi and muramasa but, as you can see, both are seemingly going to be stalled for(ever) quite a while. Muramasa translation has to be recommenced and after that go through JAST processing which will add another 3 years. Subahibi is in Japanese Developer Hell where they don't care about the impatience culture of the West and release it whenever they feel like working at least 2 hours per week.
Both, if they ever come out, will be when we all have 4k monitors and have to put our faces 5 inches from the screen trying to read that 800 x 600 screen.

>mfw spoiled a r/vn/ mod who committed sudoku recently

moogy killed her because she said umineko was good
don't believe their lies

Nice. I reported the memorial circlejerk post and it got taken down.

I don't really give a shit about it or subahibi.

Not like you pseudo JOP can comprehend Dies Irae either.

When you report something on reddit, it's autohided for you.
It's still up.
There'd also be no way for it to be removed since the report would go toward the /r/vns/ mods and they wouldn't remove it.
How dumb are you?

wow you seem very knowledgeable of reddit :^)

Oh look, we have a Reddit professional over here!

Is that your defense mechanism? "I'll just assume that those JOPs don't even understand what they read in Japanese, so that they're equal to me, who can't read Japanese!" Don't forget to call them elitists too.

I'ma eat the anime booty

Nice sour grapes you got there. We will get a English translation faster than you will ever understand the original. :-)

Seems like making false claims on no evidence seems to be your weapon of choice. You should feel bad for lowering the image of the smart and normal EOPs around you.

Wew, someone get the tranquilizer we have a mad JOP on the loose!

Don't forget rewrites that changes entire meaning and a character's personality. That's instant bad tier.

Man, I kinda feel bad for all the normal people on board the S.S. Monobe.

Seriously, I mean, at this point they're going to assault fucking God in a flying school loaded with schoolchildren, most of which, are utterly powerless. That would be an utterly terrifying prospect. Kind of farcical too, in a way.

da fuq u talkin about nooblord?

A translation that's with honorifics and is lacking in localization is never good.

I concur.

Back up the bus, passive-agressive user. Little localisation doesn't mean turning every character into a brain damaged eight year old.

>yfw root double flops

Yeah, everyone only pirates. It's totally not because of a stealth release, no communication like ever and so on and so forth. What did dovac say like last week about it? "It's complicated, more news soon"? Yeah, sure is complicated.

.. now I only hope that the release won't actually be fucked by bugs taking 3 months to fix.

It's also related to how there are retards out there who won't look at something if there's no porn.

It can't flop when they didn't fund it themselves.

>Steam-only release

Why is this allowed in 2016?

I think backers get physical copies. Not sure though.

That only makes me angrier.

If it happens, Sekai has no one to blame but themselves
Mainly because of the delay and the only way to find out it's being released tomorrow being actually checking the Steam page (or from people who checked the Steam page telling you), because as far as I've seen, Sekai themselves have done no official announcement on the matter

Nothing on twitter or their site either.

I find that this happens too much with vn publishers. Why not cook up a trailer, send it to some weeaboo media websites so it gets at least some coverage?
it seems like SP think a tweet is enough of an announcement.

They don't want people to know that they'll lose one of their precious TBAs. You gotta understand!

At least Mangagamer publishes demos and hype things up in their twitter, including weekly updates about the progress of their various projects
And they give release dates they stick by various weeks (if not a month) before the actual release date
Sekai only revealed the game's coming out tomorrow today
The general lack of coverage on weaboo media websites may be because said sites don't want to cover stuff with sex scenes, and while that isn't a problem for stuff like RD or TB, it becomes a problem with most VNs and thus, the publishers can't get a lot of opportunities to contact said sites for coverage

Some people collect stamps, they collect TBAs.

I told you guys Root Triple would we released this month.

gematsu, Siliconera, RPGsite or nichegamer have published news articles about visual novels before, it's not that out of line for them as long as there's no adult content (a console remake or a Steam version, for example).

And those are just off the top of my head.

Remember to report retards who post offtopic content.

...

Wait, so did he name his cat Miku?

Dovac has had a hard live, nobody appreciates what he has done.

Miku is on the tissue box isn't she?

Is there any math in √2x?

One problem I'm beginning to have as a VN fan is the simple fact that Tsukihime and Fate Stay Night are better than pretty much any other game. I don't get how only nasu managed to write well-paced, complex stories in this medium

dude come on you can do better than this

(You)

It reads like bait but I'm pretty serious
Pick up any vn, compare it to tsukihime/fate, and what do you know its just plain worse..

As a member of the Holy Just Church of Demonbane, I strongly disagree with you and encourage to read our Holy VN: Zanmataisei Demonbane (english name: Deus Machina Demonbane)

>tsukusoge
>better than anything
lol

I haven't been impressed with other nitro+ games I've read from that era. The OST is pretty good though.

>Shitposting intensifies as Americans wake up

Who would've known

How many boogeymen can you make?

About 36 at this moment.
