I remember that shit VN and that non-honorific full of meme translation. What a waste of time and money SP did to release this turd.

I'm waiting for the PC version
Jonathan Hill
I wish every Moonstone title was like W Happiness but the thing is it's a fandisc so it's gonna be light
David Miller
He probably won't unless something really sticks out since there are so many games he could play for the ironic weeb cred nowadays. Back then it was part of the early wave of VNs to be put on steam so had far less choice.
Easton Jenkins
That doesn't exist!
Isaac Campbell
About to start pic related. What should I expect?
Noah Reyes
Yuki
Noah Turner
They should try to get Euphoria or Suck My Dick Or Die on Steam then

>tfw a girl will never have thoughts like this about it
Jordan Collins
Is a shame that Root A is the peak of this VN and all the others are worse. At least it picks back up slightly after B though.
Lucas Howard
Kindly refrain from talking about all-ages kusoge.
Owen Anderson
Honestly I really don't even think it picks up that much after A.
I was really fucking hype for D and then like 60-70% of it is flashbacks
Leo Diaz
Even though these statements are true...
I still liked Root Double
Gabriel Hall
The game is much more about it's character than following a plot. If you don't want to learn more about them the vn is not for you.
It's a solid 8/10.
Hudson Moore
cute
Lucas Fisher
I think that princess evangile was kind of a fluke and the moege boom we've seen will eventually subside as these games keep flopping.
And I think that's really sad
Grayson Nguyen
I actually like the characters a lot. My problem is that so much of the characters is only revealed to us solely in D route and that leads into the flashback issue
Also, you can't tell me it's about character when B and C are very focused on Haruhiko. A route wasn't as heavily focused on Watase and got us to know the characters much better. That's why it's the bes troute
>as these games keep flopping. The only ones that's "flopping" is SP. Whenever MG puts out a new moege, it's always a top seller. Even D.S. It was in their top 5 for like a month.
Bentley Butler
Shutup
Eli Ortiz
Topseller doesn't mean much when everything else isn't selling much.
Brayden Young
I liked the characters and reveals, but the amount of time and flashbacks needed to do so just dragged it down. I guess it just comes down to bad pacing, which is similar to something like Ever 17 which I still enjoyed mostly with how Coco's route wrapped it up.
Aaron Green
It was a top seller on their page but I don't think it moved that many units did it?
I guess they'll have alicesoft to fall back on for a while at least, those games should consistently sell well
Ryder Brown
A great atmosphere but awful route design. Enjoy clicking around aimlessly.
Brody Sullivan
Abusive mother confirmed
Joseph Richardson
>Stein's;Gate spoilers Konami isn't nice at all
Oliver Bell
I know DC3 did well for them as it pushed Rance off the top seller spot on their store for a time. not so sure about DS though.
Carter Williams
They should sell common routes separately and routes as add-ons. I only read one route and ~$40 is kind of a steep cost for like 10 hours.
Asher Long
Me on the right
Hudson Taylor
Dies Irae tried that but I don't know how well it worked
Jose Barnes
>I'm sado OK
Eli Price
Please no, it would just give them an excuse to jack up prices. It might be cheaper for people who want selective routes but I could see the overall cost going up.
Josiah Jenkins
I want to touch Chiho's twintails.
Blake Perry
Confusion.
Robert Campbell
I want to smell them and wrap them around my penis!
Easton Diaz
Thinking of starting SakuSaku after seeing all those cute pics being posted lately. What am I in for guys?
Brayden Jackson
Of their recent major releases over the past year, Funbag Fantasy, the Rances, D.S. and especially D.C.III and W Happiness were top sellers. And the latter two were in the top 5 for quite some time
The only one I'm not sure about is Himawari.
If it wasn't selling a decent amount it would have fallen off after a week or two like what Space Live is doing right now (started at #1, is now at #5 in less than 2 weeks)
Tyler Bennett
Huh ok, well that's reassuring. MG are bros and I'd honestly like to see them succeed.
Jeremiah Young
>punished mio Why is drama in moege nearly always bad?
Mason Reyes
SakuSaku still has a fullscreen bug that hasn't been fixed. Some people have been able to get around it by disabling DPI scaling, for others that doesn't work. Lewd Ann for condolences.
Isaiah Gutierrez
W Happiness is still in the top 5 actually. It's been in the top 5 since release. In fact it keeps going down and up.
You forgot about that one Miss Lonesome Oto-ge too. That's still there
Tyler Fisher
Swear I set it to spoiler the image.
Juan Roberts
pls smile again.
Henry Wilson
Around 70% cute 30% utsuge
Asher Cruz
Hopefully Evenicle sells well and we get more S/RPGs type VNs. A shame we won't get anything from Eushully since they hate gaijins.
Dylan Gutierrez
Hanako-te yuuna!
Lucas Stewart
That's not utsuge
Joseph Baker
How long does Amane route in Grisaia drag on for? Getting tied of Kazuki being obnoxious.
Elijah Bailey
It's a little bit on the crying and depressing side of moege than the regular drama
Robert Reed
iuna*
Ian Baker
Angelic Howl is ~5h
Joseph Carter
About 14 days
Jayden Thomas
Didn't her VA die?
Owen Wood
>A shame we won't get anything from Eushully since they hate gaijins. People said that about Minato Soft for Majikoi and JAST somehow got them on board (ok it took something like 4 years but still). So it isn't impossible if someone is persistent enough. They might even look at how well Alicesoft's stuff is doing and get motivated to change for western money.
Cameron Bailey
Kuon's? I don't think so, at least not according to Wikipedia
Aaron Gonzalez
Nakige is probably more appropriate. An utsuge tries to make you feel like shit and normally doesn't have a happy ending
Grayson Morales
No but she is on a long hiatus. I think she has some sickness.
Jayden Cooper
The sickness known as death
Luke Cruz
What VN should I use to kill myself lads?
Robert Jackson
Euphoria
Joshua Powell
Sounds right up my alley. Do I need to prepare some tissues?
Jaxson Kelly
School Days is perfect for that.
Charles Williams
Piece of Wonder I remember being exceptionally terrible. Its got a nostalgic feel to it that you'll want while killing yourself.
Yeah maybe the Rance and Evenicle sales numbers will convince them. Would kill for Kami no Rhapsody.
Jacob Green
Maybe
Brody Watson
You might cry from how dumb the drama is.
Matthew Moore
It's a utsuge because there's so many girls that you can't date and that VN doesn't hava a fandisc.
Jack Taylor
Sansha Mendan literally fucking when
Sebastian Cruz
Once SP's check goes through
James Cruz
Need to play the first two
Sebastian Foster
Can't be as bad as the dumb drama in Dal Segno (I hope)
James Lewis
Yup, a lot of tissues and more if you first route is Yuuri.
Parker Mitchell
I'm literally starting her route now after Ann and Konami. Can't wait.
Carson Davis
I like how SakuSaku has some dialogue purposefully play in the background, usually while the MC is monologuing or speaking with a different character. It's a shame that the effect is almost totally lost since it can't be translated.
Hudson Taylor
>6 Condons; Dead pan eyes: I-I'm alright... >A wholo box of Condons; Half dead: I can't... anymore.
Ethan Watson
Yeah, it's really nice. I can only get it due to 10+ years of animu and VNs and the dialogue isn't too complicated.
Jason Rodriguez
How long is the first Utawarerumono?
Jayden Bennett
Fuck you. I was genuinely worried I was about to have a stroke.
Adrian Morris
Subahibi The boredom will kill you
Alexander Adams
Some VN engines support non-textbox/image text to display but it requires extra scripting so there's pretty much no chance it will be done by a official release since that requires extra work and the documentation is pretty much non-existent so fan translations likely have no idea how to do it.
Cooper Perez
Like i said last thread you have no idea what utsuge means user.
Hudson Gray
It's been a while but I'd say 20-30 or so hours? If you do play it, at least do hard mode 1, because I remember normal being too easy. It's up to you though.
Camden Morris
Well, they did it for MLA
Zachary Fisher

Joshua Long
The translator did say he was trying to find a way to do it. Worst case scenario, he said he would make a .txt file with the background conversations translated. That was before he sold out, though.
