    I like it when games have some amount of self-awareness.

    I have to admit that Chrono Clock probably has the translation that has been the most to my enjoyment out of anything I've read.

    I mean, 70% of it is probably the VN being good, but maybe the TL really is responsible for all these lines rendering me breathless... from laughing too much.

      I think we should all endeavor to maitain the status quo.

  6. It's my Birthday. Whee.

    Now, back to work.

  7. Wow, I advanced three text lines consecutively by executing an unintended, but dexterous, movement.

    I picked up my keyboard, accidentally clicking 'enter', whilst moving my mouse, and I accidentally hit said mouse in the keyboard, clicking the left mouse button in the process, and by hitting the keyboard my finger slipped, scrolling down the mouse wheel as well.

    Therefore, I clicked 'enter', 'left mouse button' and scrolled down in quick succession, advancing three lines.
    You've got nothing on these skillz.

    I was wondering what it could have possibly said.

  9. Currently inserting some hot americanizations into the Dracu Riot translation.

      In context I'd probably recognise it (especially if it were a child saying it) but otherwise I'd have no bloody idea.

    Here's your daily reminder that I absolutely hate the construction "He is the type to".
    Jeez, why must you classify everyone into types? Sometimes I do, sometime I don't. If you want to express this sentiment you say the hyperbolic "He always replies to his messages quickly" or the average "He usually replies to his messages quickly".

  12. People seem to be listing the VNs they have played this year. I tend to play short nukige just a tad bit too much, so my list seem absolutely huge on VNDB, though the amount of 2 hour fap games in there is pretty crazy, so I'll instead ditch those and list the bigger games/ not nukige games. (I'll also try to somewhat list them in order of completion, though my VNDB is a bit all over the place so it's not 100% correct. Lastly, I won't be listing games I played only some of and ditched, but will be listing games I have a larger amount of hours in, like Tokyo Babel where I've played about 60% at least.)

      I never went to university so, quite honestly, the concept of doing anything 'in class' except attempting to pay attention is entirely foreign to me. :shrug:
       

      Miss stronk and ditsy's probably the best one., actually. Generally regarded as best with, you know, a girl who doesn't abuse you for no reason and some, depending on your standards, surprisingly nice plot.

      Ryou's... I just liked the girl, maybe that was it. That and the fact that it actually had some story going.
      Eika and the maid didn't really have anything other than their personal romance with the protagonist, although I loved the way the latter was presented and I guess the former was pretty hot, assuming that's what you're looking for.

      "One Thousand Lies (shorter title, but since it's nothing close to a nukige I'll list it) 9.5"

      What?!!?!?!?
      It's supposed to be short? Sheesh, games these days. I took week(s?) to proofread the damn thing. Agreed on the score, though.

       

      Tell me, which Ikkikoi routes are you missing? They've all got strengths, and I rather liked all the routes, truth be told.

    She just looked a little faint. No reason to suspect she might be growing ill.

    1. Mr Poltroon

      Mr Poltroon

      I wasn't really complaining per say. It's just that I have a very bad habit of reading the actual words, which are quite often at odds with what meaning they take upon. A little close to fainting is in no way a mere out of it, but that is what it effectively means...

      Other than typos I really have no issues with the translation.

      To clarify, this is from Koiken Otome, which is fully translated.

      To be entirely frank, it's a question of manipulating the conversation into breaching the appropriate topic for the punchline.

      I recall last time I pulled this I used a kid's toy that mimicked a fire engine's siren.

    This is a sentiment I truly believe in, and one Japanese VNs don't support much.
    You can't expect people to understand feelings and concerns you don't voice. You can go shove your "We don't need words. I'm the person who knows you best"s down the toilet.

  22. Sorry to say this, guys, but I'm not gonna be active for about a week. My wrist is getting pretty bad, and I'll have to wear a stilt for a week. My recovery probably won't be that good if I keep taking it off to type. The pain is only on my left wrist, so I can still use my mouse freely to browse the forums. That's pretty much it though.

  23. If anyone is wondering why I don't show up in chat anymore, I was banned for one day about a few weeks ago and I'm still banned.

      Intended behaviour. As far as I know, that's a feature. Report to @Tay anyways.
