    Even if you do hate Chinami you must admit that Chinami-ism is one of the most genius songs ever created.

    Well, even if Weaboos have heard of the word 'desu', how many of them are going to actually understand what it means in this context?

    The reason why Spanish words are okay is because major English speaking countries also have many Spanish speakers from surroundings countries which causes  their culture to sift in. As a result, almost every English speaker in say the US will now a few Spanish words like say Uno, Adios, Amigo, etc. It's basically the same thing as how Japanese has a shitload of English words in the language that people know and use all the time, but to a lesser degree. The same thing doesn't really hold true in English for Japanese save a few cultural words like Samurai, Ninja, Sushi, you get the idea. Putting in desu in a translation isn't a smart idea because the vast majority of English speakers, yes even in the anime community, aren't going to understand what it means even if they know of the word. 
     
    That's what translating is. Speech quirks typically don't have much meaning on their own beyond being a part of certain speech habits. Even if the "nanoyosa" wasn't directly translated, that doesn't mean meaning was lost in the transition. 
     
    Also just translate desu as yes most of the time, be creative when you can't, there problem fixed.

    It was good, but most of the routes sort of went into really ridiculous bullshit at times.

    I don't think this game is planned to be 18+ so no hair job scenes. Not that I'd really want to imagine what someone sticking their penis into that massive clump of hair would look like.

    Mangamer mostly sticks with the people they have on board, while it seems Sekai Project goes for quantity. Though it's worth noting that a lot of the top notch translators in the scene are with Mangagamer and JAST, which is why their translations come out noticeably better than almost anything translated by SP. 
    Also regarding Kickstarters, it's pretty silly to use the argument that they know what they're getting into. Since Kickstarter is basically a really in-advanced pre-order system, a lot of details aren't specific, or set on stone, or people simply never think about them. For example, people didn't even know Clannad was supposedly going to have a DRM system until just a few months back. Some people were even thinking about dropping their pledges solely because of that, meaning they never really thought about that back during the initial campaign.

    What does that have to do with anything. Doddler programs things, there's no reason to hold his opinion on artwork over everyone else's simply because he's more known. Personally I like to think artists put effort into the background just as much as they put effort into drawing the focus, so even just cutting out 'meaningless bits' is somewhat of a shame. Especially since it announced that the game was going to be upscaled, yet a lot of people wouldn't exactly call that an improvement if that means losing something else in return for it.

    Yet they buy products too. Ignoring a group of 200 people because you can get 300 people elsewhere doesn't make sense when you can appeal to both and get 500.

    Well, freedom of speech or not, censoring anything speaking against you is kind of a bad idea, and they more than likely shouldn't have started deleting threads without saying anything first. That's probably what caused people to be so angry in the first place.

    Eh, it's not that big of a deal, but still pretty shitty when the big deal is that the game's supposed to be upscaled to a higher resolution, but in the process a chunk of the CG gets cut out.

    Maybe, but honestly getting Ixrec's translation up to good quality would take a long time too. You'd need to run a thorough translation check on everything, then have a highly skilled editor look over the whole thing. Nobody really knows what Degica is doing with it because they've only given us vague statements, but it appears they're having a bunch of people work on it like Clannad was, so that's not very reassuring.

    They asked for way too much considering it's a mobile game. Not to mention the idea of a BL game where the boys transform into girls probably isn't a smart idea and turned away a few people.
