We are entering a VN golden age with SP leading the way!
Ryder Hughes
Did you have a pissing fetish before the golden age of VNs?
Michael Lee
When Baldr Sky comes out in mid-2060, I'll tell my kids to pirate it just to spite SP.
Brandon Turner
So from what I can tell people hate on SP for either not delivering or taking too long to deliver?
Sounds like it's just a bunch of dorks who don't really know how to manage a company.
John Nelson
Fuck off reddit
Adam Jenkins
No, for now these announcment are pretty average and we newer know in what year will be released.
Juan Stewart
You sick bastards baited that poor fag into reading Umineko. We're supposed to help this community grow, not destroy it.
Noah Thompson
I do love chibi art
Elijah Barnes
It can't be helped when you're working on this many projects
Grayson Cooper
>Sounds like it's just a bunch of dorks who don't really know how to manage a company.
It's basically this, they have no idea what they're doing and are super bitchy about it on twitter
Robert Stewart
chibi/SD art is JUSTICE
Xavier Gonzalez
FUCK SEKAI PROJECT
Henry Brown
Yeah, I feel really bad for him, but whatever. This will probably turn him away from the medium as a whole.
Jaxon Nguyen
Logicfags: Unintelligent, diehard atheists, permavirgins, never experienced real love, unloved by everyone, nitpicks over stupid shit nobody gives a fuck about, shills for SP and wants to be a part of the cartel
Magicfriends: Highly respected individuals, may not be theistic, but can recognize the pros of following a faith, has experienced real love, loved and respected by everyone, acknowledges the faults of Umineko and sees it as a flawed masterpiece that everyone should read, supports /ourcompany/ MG, dosen't care about the cartel.
Bentley Mitchell
Rusalka my Kei!
Joseph Jenkins
They promise much and deliver little. Any when they finally do deliver, it's shit.
Angel Baker
...
Kayden Barnes
What happened? Umineko's alright
James Nguyen
Why didn't MG announce this instead of that other moonstone moege?
Jordan Torres
If you're warned to not get invested in the mystery in advance it's a lot more enjoyable. There's a reason that people who read Umineko as it was coming out hate it and people who go in forewarned tend to like it. Like how if you're expecting DI to be the kamige to end all kamiges you'll just be disappointed but if you just want Chuunishit you'll have a blast.
Christopher Cook
For taking too long to deliver For submitting cringeworthy meme translations For insulting their userbase on a regular basis For lying to their userbase on a reglar basis For treating the original 18+ product like it's an after thought and not putting effort into it For killing off Aroduc and delaying the Baldr Sky release for 2 years
Nathan Allen
Yeah, instead of waiting patiently for a good translation, they want some unedited shit. It's leading to a time where simultaneous worldwide releases will happen!
Thomas Davis
Is Veeky Forums ready for the next true kamige?
Angel Garcia
But Umineko is a fine piece of literature.
Xavier Perry
>tfw reading a Noeri H-scene >/vn/ is shitposting so hard about SP on the second monitor that I progressed maybe 5 lines in an hour
James Long
Let's save the thread with cute girls
Jayden Cooper
I legitimately cannot fathom how people go into visual NOVELS and then say "omgwtf this is way too long it's like I'm reading a fucking BOOK holy shit!!!!!!!11"Why is it so common for me to see someone surprised at the "> 50 hours" indicator? Seriously, why shouldn't it take 50 hours? It's a fucking anime book with voice acting and pictures but above all the other elements it's still supposed to be a NOVEL that you READ. Even if you want to say the time you spend is longer than it would be with a typical book that's a GOOD thing, not a bad thing. You have more to read/watch/experience. Seriously, what is supposed to be the problem with a visual NOVEL being long? It's not like you have to read it all in one sitting. They aren't, "tedious" just just because it's long, they should only be tedious if they are unenjoyable. If reading is tedious then you should take your fucking adderall and go play with your fidget spinner instead of coming here and complaining about books being too long.
Nolan Rodriguez
They killed /ourguy/ Aroduc. I will never forgive them.
Jayden Gutierrez
R07 is the Tolstoy of visual novels.
Logan Wilson
>Like how if you're expecting DI to be the kamige to end all kamiges you'll just be disappointed but if you just want Chuunishit you'll have a blast
I expected chuunishit and got what is most likely my favorite VN for now
I don't know if it's a kamige or whatever but it's definitely in the top tier of what has been translated so far
Nolan Robinson
Because they need to prove they're worthy for those vns. As you can see, sp is doing great with the community and the companies.
Joseph Harris
For butchering multiple VNs, creating all ages versions that didn't even exist in the first place For 84% editing release
Mason Young
It probably will be in one of their mid 2018 cons.
Cameron Walker
That or when they deliver it's unfinished
Isaac Perez
Or maybe they don't want to support anybody who was going to shit on them in the first place?
>Mangagamer also doesn't offer merchandise on release of games. What the fuck? How is that even a factor? How about we talk about the actual visual novel coming out first before merchandising comes in? In fact, when has the merchandising ever been a factor for a good release? I think the VN coming out first should be the priority if you want to have an argument here and they barely get that right
>Everyone who want merchandise from an SP project can get it, You know, Ley-Line was supposed to have the first light novel translated if it met the goal, which it did, but look at that it's not happening anymore. They didn't even say why.
>So from what I can tell people hate on SP for either not delivering or taking too long to deliver? I think the real problem is that they keep not delivering while licensing something like 7 or 8 games a year, picking up completed projects and running Kickstarter after Kickstarter
Adrian Adams
What do you think the likelihood is of Sekai picking up Yuzu's other projects are?
Daniel Young
>has experienced real love That's why umineko is shit. I mean, what the fuck, Ryukishi, your target audience are otakus. Real love? Seriously? No wonder why higanbana and rgd failed. Serves him right.
Connor Martinez
Reposting since it was at the end of the last thread. Did Umineko ever explain why the police didn't find it strange there was a crater on the island showing a bomb had gone off? It spent time saying there was a big mystery of what happend but a giant crater from explosives isn't really that mysterious since it is east to tell what caused it.
Cooper Walker
Well since they have 2, it's looking pretty fucking likely now
Oliver Scott
Sekai Project buying out a Japanese company when?!
Christian Thompson
>finally get around to reading Umineko >thought the whole "Beatrice is a man with mutilated genitals" spoiler was a meme >it was actually true Nani the fuck?
Dominic Jackson
Plot hole, like most things in Umineko if you didn't realize
Nathaniel Cook
I would honestly forgive them for most of that if they improved and actually came out an apologized. But nope. The most they'll do is make hi-larious self-depreciating posts on Reddit instead of offering a heartfelt apology.
Luke Jones
ALL AGES MOEGE
Jaxon Smith
I've actually read this novel. It's complete shit, and the detective is pure cringe.
Ayden Gutierrez
This. Sadly, Umineko is a pleb filter.
Glad to see that he's getting his reputation back, though. He really is writing a lot of shit these days, with Iwaihime being his most successful work recently.
translation fucking when
Carson Robinson
Depends on how much money they manage to swindle via the kikestarters for SB and DR
Cameron Moore
It's over, /vng/.
Aaron Clark
As expected of the source of Umineko
Caleb Lopez
>/vng/ Who?
Grayson White
What's even the point in caring? It's going to take at least 4 years for them to release the 3 they announced so far.
Colton Wood
Pretty good.
Joshua Miller
Awesome, I can look forward to Sanoba Witch in 2089.
Aiden James
I honestly had more fun with Umineko than I did with whatever shit the cartel pushed.
Camden Hernandez
Hey-hey-hey, there's the high-roller!
Joshua Anderson
>/vng/.
Ian Richardson
>6 years later >People are still discussing Umineko >People are still mad about Umineko
Literally a true kamige.
Julian Diaz
Your autism resonated with Ryukishi, it's probably the way he keeps repeating the same shit 3 times every paragraph that pushed your buttons Congratulation
Leo Hernandez
World and Peace - one of the longest novels in the world is shorter than Typemoon stuff, Grisaia, R07 stuff and Keystuff.
Christian Mitchell
>13 years later >people are still discussing F/SN >people are still mad about F/SN
Literally a true kamige.
Easton Williams
Amairo translation when!
Ryan Flores

Daniel Edwards

Xavier Collins
Literally a true betage.
Ian Cruz

Anthony Nguyen
Okay so what exactly is supposed to come out from SP this year? I saw Wagamama High Spec is (apparently) coming out at the end of the month and Ley-Line (apparently) supposed to come out sometime this month (even though it was supposed to come out in Spring and then delayed it without saying anything)
Alexander Roberts
Kei worst girl
Oliver Foster
So what happened to Aroduc after the Baldr fiasco? Is he really gone forever? Can we try and revive him like we did with coco?
Aiden Torres
>wow... purple prose... soo good... must be good........ hmm... yesss..... i love it.... very... flowery my dear................
Andrew Fisher
Supposedly SakuSaku as well.
Angel Hill
See, this is quality writing. Shut the fuck up with your crappy Umineko shit and talk about a real kamige.
Brayden Myers
Doddler betrayed him.
Ryder Taylor
He's dead.
Samuel Morgan
>All yuzusoft vns are localized by Yuzusoft and not Mangagamer Literally the worst timeline lads
Liam Hill
I see you did not even fucking read my post about people not reading. I'll make it quick and just copy and paste the part where I specifically talked about that. >Even if you want to say the time you spend is longer than it would be with a typical book that's a GOOD thing, not a bad thing. You have more to read/watch/experience. Seriously, what is supposed to be the problem with a visual NOVEL being long? It's not like you have to read it all in one sitting You spend 300 hours running around crashing your car in GTA but reading for 50 hours? Jesus christ that's soooooooo boring ugh how do people read anything other than text messages? *opens flappy bird*
Camden Reyes
Shit's been on beta for so long it better be fucking flawless.
Alexander Turner
>all of /ourguys/ like Umineko
hmmmmmm.......
Thomas Allen
Hasn't Wagamama been coming out 'soon' for at least a month now?
Zachary Myers

Michael Hughes
Ohaa, /vn/
Xavier Peterson
Is Cartagra any good? I liked Kara no Shoujo and was thinking of reading this next
Julian Butler
He only has his blog and twitter that he uses. He is unlikely to work with most hackers who can actually do shit now after the Balder mess and that was his one main problem with his projects (engine/scripting problems).
Joshua Butler
Is SP defender /our guy/?
Parker Hill
what's some all ages kamige?
Connor Gutierrez
Senren Banka looks very promising from the vndb ratings. I'd much rather trust the ratings on there than the autists on /vn/.
Logan Moore
>the school doctor rapes our heroine's BFF while she's transforming into god knows what
Kayden Young
Remember when Nekopara btfo Dies Irae and the Dies translators tried to use catgirls to get people to back it?
Kayden Baker
Lets fug
Charles Phillips
Can you please stop trying to discuss VNs? we're shitposting over here.
Tyler Morales
No, it's not good, because more hours = more filler, not more new content.
Charles Ward
He/she seems pretty cool.
Kevin Smith
You need to read it if you're going to read KnS 2, as there are plot point that came from Cartagra.
Brayden Jones
>twitter I don't know why I said twitter, I meant forums.
Liam Miller
Well I mean I already read KnS2 with no issue
William Foster
It's an underrated classic IMO
Well apparently they announced the all-ages one for 7/25
Ryder Powell
