    Otakon speculation and discussion thread

    in Visual Novel Talk

    Posted

    They've bit off far more than they can chew, if you draw up a list of all the projects they've aqquired and made public knowledge - they have so much they have to handle, I'm actually starting to feel skeptical they will be able to deliver.

     

    I admit I'm kinda curious about the Nekopara anime though :sachi:

    I'm mainly curious to see what MG has to offer, they've been providing some interesting stuff the last couple years.

    EDIT:

    @Nosebleed Well, at the very least - a large source of the antagonistic behavior that was within SP should be gone now - so they might actually be able to keep damage control to a safe level. :makina:

    after fate bled my soul dry I just wanted something a bit more lighthearted, I was thinking I might finally read Koisuru Natsu no Last Resort since it has been installed in my pc for quite a few months now but instead I started kamidori which I remember being way lower rated on vndb, I barely started it <actually now that I look at the time I played it for a bit :) > but it's alright, being an actual game really helps

    The routes are pretty cringeworthy, but the gameplay itself is fairly engrossing (and the CGs are pretty decent). I poured a ton of hours into that game~

    Is this any good? I normally don't play visual novels that are all ages, but I liked Eden* and the H was only a side thing.

    If it's the same writer as EF, you can expect a intricate and emotional experience. Of course, I don't know the actual context of the story, so milage may vary. :sachi:

    But i will say, EF is in my "top 5 VNs of all time". (NNL version anyway, not sure how much it differs from MGs)

    This is for you both, on finishing up F/SN :sachi: My favorite song in my life atm.
    (last episodes spoilers)

    I like to think of this as the true end to the Fate route - or even a "True end" for the many versions of Archer that Shirou may end up as. (That Rin/Sakura/others couldn't save)

    Rin is best girl, and Heavens Feel is best route - but there will always be a special place in my heart for Arturia, no matter what.

     

    Either of you have plans to go through Hollow/Ataxia? At the very least, I reccomend watching Carnival Phantasm - it's a great way to finish off the series. :)

    Corona Blossom released!

    So, just to throw my wrench into the mix, :sachi: should we have all Japanese names changed to more familiar names? Tohsaka Rin should actually be called Mary Sue - Tokisakaas Reiji as John Doe? After all, the average non-Japanese reader will not be used to those styles of names - and will even confuse one character for another, from lack of familiarity. (I've actually seen people do that, when surfing around in Dangaronpa threads)

     

    Obviously I'm using an over-the-top example, but take the "anti literal" stance far enough, and that's what you will end up with.

    For my part, I prefer a more "accurate" translation, but I also want it to make sense and flow well - even if it means some re-invention when translated. It "is" o.k. for people to choose a moderate stance, you don't have to favor one extreme or another.

     

    EDIT: 'Read the mood" is fine - maybe not where you are, but it was something that would have been said/make sense where I live, even among teens. :fiteme:

    EDIT2: Literals, Reformists, and Moderates - we have the makings of a political system, ha~

    Nutaku caught abusing DMCA takedowns to censor evidence of censorship

    in Visual Novel Talk

    Posted

    Only had time to glance over it for now, but my main take away: They fear getting in trouble with the law, for working on material that is considered illegal on their home turf. I mean, even if they cut out and censor it, if the subject matter is illegal there - aren't they in breach just through possession? Sounds to me like they are trying to cover their asses.

    But I have no experience or education when it comes to localizations - maybe companies are granted immunity to such import laws, on the basis the content is to be modified?

     

    The whole MIND dark-overlord is possible, but I question if they even monitor any one business under them that closely.

    Greatest Male Protagonist EVER

    I prefer OP protags over whiney manbitches :makina: Maybe it's my age showing, or my former normie status - but I just can't identify with the ignorant, low-confidence protags anymore. I need it to be a man that has his shit together at least abit - even better if he's not a complete douche to the people around him~

     

    That being said, I've honestly forgotten what KSs' protag was like (been at least 3-4 years?), but I seem to remember getting pissed off at him more then once. But on the other hand, I remember being able to empathize with him for certain situations~

    Haters gonna hate, Nemu is life.  <3 wincest.

    Well, to be fair - neither Nemu or Sakuras' routes are very good - but they have decent feels, and are the best of a bad bunch. :sachi: That, and there's that one scene where most of Nemu's dialogue gets bleeped out - I love that scene. :illya:

    DC2 is much better then DC1 overall - with exception to Kokoro's route - that one is just a exercise in frustration~

    Hm, I think it's counting Sparks liner high as a neutral ending (the bad end if Shirou fights saber without riders help). It's been a looong time since I last read F/SN, but I don't recall more than the normal end, and one "true" end. One ending, she lives a life alone but in peace, and the other, they both survive.

     

    Last episode is just that :) has my favorite song within it. :sachi:

    LOL, that was pretty great :miyako: You make some of my favorite posts, and completey out of the blue.

    Random tidbits:

    1. I once reported your account when I swore to Suzu I thought you must have gotten hacked, due to that completely random status update a few months back - no hard feelings?  :sachi: 

    2. Also, if you look at your avater a certain way, it looks like a micro-bikini is on the dice (you're welcome, what has been seen cannot be unseen)
