Really? Where did they say that?
Maybe I am wrong, but before this kickstarter I've never heard nothing about 18+. I guess, it means other games in their catalog with adult version will get crowdfunding. New way to take fan's money. 125$ for the hardcopy. It's almost my whole salary...

One "p". Just one. It's not "Happymaher". Spelling it wrong totally isn't starting to annoy me or anything
And yeah, it was. Licensing Hapymaher to MangaGamer was the surprise, as SP had already gotten the rights to release Chrono Clock. I don't know why people keep thinking it's the other way around.
I'm talking about 18+ version of Crono Clock. It was "all age" only before MG suprised us with Hap... Happ... Hapymaher) With this kickstater SP strikes back. You understand that Purple Software had to agree to this. I wonder if japan actually play with them all...

"Hardcore fans" Pah! It's the same people who thinks themselves as self-appointed critiques, who all the while bitch and moan whitout giving a cent. The fans are the ones providing money to make the campaigns a success and help make the best out of the games releases, the silent benevolent majority are the true fans, not the whiny plebs who constitutes a vocal minority that just wastes their and other people's time complaining about anything and everything.
Again with this lazy accusation. Hardcopy fans are those who usually buys VNs after "silent majority" forgets about them. And people have every fucking right to whine or complain if they are backers that, for example, still waiting for the WEE Episode 3. Like me. Sekay promised the end of summer. But instead they created another campain for Crono Clock 'cause they jelaous of MG's new deal with Purple Software.
As for exclusive for Nutaku or Denpasoft, I really do not care as long as there'll be no censhorship or bad TL. The real question is '' when '' and no '' where ''.

About Censhorship
It's a hilarious discussion from a point of non-american ESL human being that lives in a country, which for 70 years stayed behind the Iron Wall. Guys, you really don't understand that censorship and especially self-censorship is evil. When people agree to it, for commercial or moral reason, they always choose the easy way. Because the hard way means debate, struggle and fight. Many different communties won their rights through constant battle with the censhorship, ignoring someone saying ''you are not our target audience or you're vocal minority''.
About censored VN
Visual Novels from the very first one were created for adults and still are aiming to adult buyers in Japan. So when localization companies bring these games to the West, cut the sex scenes or tone down the violence, they CHANGE target audience. And also, there is no such thing as all-age visual novels. Even Tokyo Babel or you actually believe a child can understand all that religious stuff? I am okay with DI official translation because it's the only way I can read this game, but don't justify its censhorship just because it's kamige.

So he uses 4Chan...yeah. No wonder it's a lost cause.
You may call 4chan however you like, but its general crowd is the one that actually buy expensive 18+ VN. Look, how they brought Rance to the West by purchasing many copies of BBH. That's why Mangagamer staff always hanging around there. Yes, /jp/ love to humiliate people, make up conspiracy and throw a stupid tantrum whenever they feel like, but its core VN buyers. Not Nekopara kids that make 100 threads of complain about high prices for "chinese picture books'. So, Frontwing is doing fine job to hear what they say. First hear, not follow every advice! It's basically a right thing to do for every respectfull company, right, Sekai?
-
Has anyone noticed that Corona Blossom is a bad game? Short, generic and boring. People expect the level of the best Frontwing works but get this joke. First, it's Grisaia no Meikyuu without 18+ patch, then horrible rip-off Purino Party and now episodic kinetic novel. And they honestly suprised? Well, maybe someone could tell them that Steam is not a VN store and its crowd's not their real fandom.

@Asonn There is actually a Dutch translation group, but they only translate OELVNs
I'm considering translating Planetarian myself, though I doubt there's really anyone who would both need and appreciate it.
If you can make it before anime, at least you can get some attention.

Hmm, I didn't know it was that active. I still haven't read many VNs, so I was judging it by the ones I know, and neither HoshiMemo nor Rewrite have full patches yet; guess I was being a bit ignorant.
And yeah, I doubt most Russians would spend $60 on a game, so I don't know if it would really be profitable to make official releases there.
They have regional prices on Steam, not like us. It's just hardcore fans don't like censored games and not ready to pay full price to get games directly from mg or just.

Apparently, you have wrong impressions about russion vn community. It's big, biggest in Europe and growing fast with many dedicated circles of translators and developers. Thanks to renpy there are many good for nothing games 2-4 hours long. And otome's not really a thing, not as large as nukige or 18+ titles. Russion developers made there own commercial visual novels long before all this hype in the west - Red Space and Evgeniy Onegin. Games floped but the fans still alive and active. For this day we have full russion patches for clannad, air, little busters, swan song, yure miru kusuri, ever17, katawa shoujo, kns, and many others I'm too lazy to mention. And majikoi, rewrite, angel beast on their way. Russions don't like spend money on the legal games, don't like censored or expensive staff, but it would be nice if vn localization companies care for such wide community and consider russion language from the start. And I'm not russion but ukrainian, so sorry for mistakes, still learning. By the way, there is none vn in my native language but that's another political sad story.

I have a guess to why developers of visual novels are so fond of the school setting. Because it's cheap. Draw a classroom, hallway, infirmary, rooftop and everything is ready. Univercity life is more complex and costly to recreate. The pure simple repetitive school art is the ideal choice for saving.
-
I thank all the translation group for their hard work! It's like a magic comes true. Magic or MajiKoi)
And I have just too questions:
1) Do I really need those 100% saves? It's kinda kills the mood when I can see all the choices from the start.
2) While the complete walkthrough is not present, what is the best routes order?
And yeah, I beat the original.
-
Majikoi S is just a sequel to majikoi, you're meant to choose which route to carry on from. You should play the original Majikoi first if you haven't.
Because you choose the route to continue from, no walkthrough should be needed.
-
I'm sorry if it's the wrong thread but I don't know how to play this wonderfull game I was waiting for so long (bless you, good fellows from the translation group). I have 100% save and every route is unlocked, but where do I start? Is there any helpfull route guide? Thank you and forgive my wild English.

Let's wait and see. Let's wa-a-a-ait long enough, because waiting is the only necessary skill to be SP fan.
