>hey, I have a great idea for a route >we'll have the protagonist make zero decisions and just repeat variations of "I don't know what to say" and "I don't know what to do" >oh, and we'll have the main heroine constantly trying to NTR herself with the other childhood friend character so that everyone spends the entire route in listless misery >also all of the other heroines drop massive inadvertent red-pills, making it impossible to go through their routes I've never played a VN wherein a single route managed to wreck the entire game so hard. Even the retarded Kirari route in KiraKira wasn't this bad.

That western VN isn't even that bad, desu, I'm kinda surprised. The only thing I dislike is that there is no voice acting and the horribly boring and repetitive music. It just makes me sleepy and angry at the same time. But other than that, the character art and writing is pretty good and it has a lot of choices.
Sebastian Watson
What western vn?

>no voice acting Would you really want to hear amateur English voice actors? The Gabeworks Opala games are partially voiced, and it's awful.

It's called Crimson Gray. Came out a couple of days ago or something like that. If you check like four or five threads back there should be a mega link.
Asher Taylor
I'm a bit spoiled when it comes to that, VA adds a lot to a VN. I wouldn't mind amateur English voice actors if they're not horrible and you could turn voices off if you don't like them. I know it's only one dude (?) that made this VN, but it is really short, the cast is not more than a handful of people and he makes 4400$ through Patreon alone, so it should not be completely impossible. I don't want to sound like I'm bitching though, I'm having a lot of fun playing it, it doesn't ruin the game or anything. It's alright.

What the fuck, Steam quality control is really dead.
Gavin Cooper
lotta shilling for this particular evn and not anything else, I wunder why...
Jaxson White
Not shilling anything, I just share VN experiences. I couldn't care less about the developer, desu and it's really stupid to shit on EVN's just for being EVN's, when there are only like 2 or 3 good ones out there.
Ethan Moore
Why is Jap fast food so awful, goddamn.
Jason Reed
There is no good EVN. Please read the OP and talk about your trash on Reddit or the EVN general.
Jose Green
I let my guard down because it's been awhile since I have read an evn and I like Yandere. I think I'll wait another few years before trying them again.
Anyone want to guess what the excuse will be for the next delay?
Colton Adams
Japanese pizzas upset me greatly, but that might have more to do with the fact that I only like vanilla pizza variants.
Brandon Mitchell
HOW IS DIES IRAE +18 STILL NOT RELEASED?
Michael Wright
The damage control answer >"We had to delay it, to fix bugs and REALLY polish the game! We just want to give you the best version possible, remember that Japanese guy saying: “A delayed game is eventually good, a bad game is bad forever.” That's basically what this is" What I'm expecting to read on Twitter >"Wow, so we bring you games and you still complain? We work our asses of and read Ramen Cup 6 times a week and for what? So you can shit on us! Why are VN fans such ungrateful, little pricks? Instead of bitching how about you buy the fucking special edition next time, maybe I would be able to afford rent this month!"
Easton Harris
"We've decided EOPs don't deserve another VN with a blood-related imouto"
Luis Collins
Why would someone put vanilla on a pizza?
Jaxson Rogers
Followed up by Dovac crying about how bad his farts smell and wondering why no one retweets
Of course it only hurts them to delay it at this point, considering the Princess Evangile fandisc is going to be the higher profile title on Steam.
Owen Baker
>Even the retarded Kirari route in KiraKira wasn't this bad.
what the FUCK did you just say
James Sanchez
I'd give my life for Maya
Jack Parker
I fully expect to see a complaint about it under performing. As bad as Kickstarters are, they do give an individual title a lot of publicity and allows them to sell a bunch of overpriced crap. It may have an anime, but that anime won't actually accomplish anything seeing that it was a forgettable show that few watched more than a year ago, and it will be releasing up against a another moege (PE fandisc) from a franchise that got a fair amount of publicity back during the Steam craze.
Hudson Richardson
I dare you to name a better VN artist than Hamashima Shigeo. Nobody surpasses him. He fucking did it again, boys.
Jaxon Bailey
I hate this guy, when does he get replaced?
Colton Ross
Does DSP work for Sekai or something?
John Wright
idk user but the steam version is pretty gud
Speaking of which still not sure whether i even want to start Reas route after how great of a ride and conclusion Maries was

Joshua Miller
I guess I will give it a try since my game got delayed
Kevin Ortiz
You're done in about half a dozen hours anyway, it's a decent, snack-sized VN. Pretty good after I finished that 60hour behemoth.
Angel Rogers
>not having 2 screens lmao what a nerd

Alright.

It's not fair
Lincoln Sanders
I love you, /vn/.
Luke Gutierrez
It's a damn shame JAST dropped nukige and a bigger one, that no one else wants to pick them up. I'm really fucking excited for Machine Child, though
Nolan Perez
>he likes his art outstretched
Xavier Walker
Wait, someone opens full size images instead of hovering?
>translating shit art ancient nukige I will never understand it.

Stop talking shit about my waifu
Logan Gutierrez
probably because old shit is cheaper to license
Mason Butler
Delaying it again would actually completely lead to it being a bomb. W Happiness would come out first and get all the attention.
Kevin Gray
>W Happiness would come out first and get all the attention Oh my god please let this happen. My dick would be so hard.
Wyatt Myers
Did I miss another piece of drama, what delay?
Justin Moore
SP delayed their newest title 1 hour before it was supposed to release citing a "memory leak" as the reason for the delay. Which we all know is a lie considering how they release unfinished shit.
Blake Hall
Thanks, just checked it out on Twitter. Although I'm not interested in the title, last minute delays always suck, especially since they said they needed "a few days" to fix them up.
Logan Lewis
Back to the origins They used to be the one that appropriating fan translations but now that Sekai Project is doing that better than they ever could, they're back to nukige Still impressed they acquired Majikoi though
Kevin Campbell
Well 'a few days' is apparently 19 hours from now according to steam. But who knows, Sekai project has a habit of finding new and interesting ways to disappoint me.
Thomas Brooks
>Maggot Baits announced over a year ago >"Translation: 45%" WHY THE FUCK ARE THEY WORKING ON A DOZEN TITLES AT THE SAME TIME
Parker Hall
R U R I K O U R I K O
Robert Peterson
Stop reminding me that we won't get the fandisc.
Alexander Kelly
To prevent other people from working on them, they've got like 40 titles sitting in storage waiting to see the light of day.
Zachary Johnson
There is but one way out from underneath Sekai's heel user, If you have the strength of will.
Austin Ramirez
Kouryuu was busy with DC3 until like 6 months ago, MG doesn't consist of one translation team taking 1 title at the time you sperg.
Hunter Clark
MangaGamer has 22 titles they're working on if I'm not mistaken. SP has 44 titles.
Lucas Howard
I can read this, Die Irae here I co..oh right its Muramasa now.
Angel Adams
Already lost my motivation once after a few months. I can't do it.
Mason Gomez
Maggot Baits is actually really long.
Carson Lee
>Length Medium (10 - 30 hours)
Luke Bailey

Aiden Ward
Please understand.
Nathan Bailey
The point is Sekai picks up licenses and leaves them the languish in translation hell. Does anyone have that vndb screencap of all the titles Sekai still hasn't released?
Nathan James
>your cats >not even taking the screenshot yourself These are stolen cats, user.
Noah Watson
Maggot Baits is done by MangaGamer. But you're still right. Like says. SP has 2x more VNs than MangaGamer.
John Watson
This is a fox girl. Look at that puffy tail, whomst not belongs to a catgirl (scientific term: neko). And you call yourself a connoiseur? You're racist.
