That's unfortunate.

Hoshimemo FD was also a flop.
Also Sakura Moyu is already getting a CH TL so an English release couldn't even rely on Chinese buyers, and would likely have to merge steam pages with the Chinese one which would kill discoverability. So, yeah. Dead before even the prospect of a translation could be brought up.

Those sites are never accurate on game's releases. I believe they even say so.
The game was the #1 seller on steam on the day it came out, it 100% sold more than 30k.
The game peaking at 12k players and only selling 19.8k copies makes no sense at all.

These folk usually underestimate how much actual text a visual novel composes. It's not a short story kind of amount of text at all.

It can be fun sometimes if you like the material or are working on a fun scene.

Ruumao. Someone's very clearly deflecting and projecting his own nasty desires on others. I get it, he's a father and he's secretly attracted to lolis. His inner world is in turmoil over his contradicting feelings. He pretends to be the normal and moral person amidst degenerates making and consuming the eroge he chooses to work on. Let us pray to the loli goddesses that this guy doesn't have daughters or that he self-checkouts to protect them for he will be another who appears on the news as a p.diddy and all eyes will be on eroge demanding bans.

It's good to know Nekonyan took his previous comments seriously and their punishment of making him read Onikiss worked. He's cured of his bad behavior and thoughts. Cleared to ruin more translations.

It's comical how he's basically saying the content itself isn't the problem, the problem is the fact that the authors aren't dishonest and deep in denial like he is.

But he did say that the content is a problem. He hates Japanese "pedos" who make the content and Western "pedos" who play it. What makes no sense is that he always works on VNs that have lolis or "child" characters. If he's so against the content and creators/consumers then why do it? Or he could work on all-ages VNs or hag VNs. But he translates "problematic" content and then bitches about it. The guy is like a drug dealer telling everyone that drugs are bad and shouldn't be consumed while cutting some coke for the next guy in line. The screenshot posted here is really recent. He even acknowledges that talking about it will get him in trouble again, not that NN did anything. He says he'll stop but makes other posts about it and even openly says he had a lewd dream of one of these "child" characters that disgust him. How in the world is he so retarded to say that publicly? I haven't read Clover Days but that Anzu girl doesn't look especially loli, very average. I don't see his problem with her.

>>45767490
They have many shills and other industry figures defending them. The most obnoxious ones are still kiriyaaoi and wildbreed/osiris. And on the other side you have the gambs and mondblut guys spending hours of their day stalking NN. It's all funny to me. They can continue ridiculing each other.

I got the impression that he is fine with loli on a surface aesthetic/"ironic weeb" level but gets uncomfortable if the characters are presented with writing that has "clear appeal" in his words. It's a common mindset.

With manga there's also less "consequence" for dropping it since someone could just pick up the next chapter, in fact having multiple groups simultaneously working on the same thing isn't treated like a crime unlike this medium.

>>45767623
There's nothing wrong or questionable with lolis on VNs but weirdos who mix this with real world. And I wouldn't blame him for having these dreams as I have these with RL world translators, like my last one.

It was about our little Ittaku who dreamed with lolis, his talks about these on his social sphere from work made his coworkers uncomfortable, he tried it with his net and RK friends but alas din't work. Lately he started to have these fuzzy feelings watching kids do cute stuff on the tv show. No later he discovered that in the mornings his weewee tends to be way too sticky, but he wasn't sure if it was because "these" dreams or after watching morning shows with kids doing calisthenics. When he was on the street, willing or not, his brain automatically calculated how to open their routes, telling himself that he needs to protect them. One day, he thought about pay-dating a kid that he met on a dark-web chat to convince himself that he wasn't into this. As he's kind of allergic to the sun, he waited for her under the shadow of a tree. Then a dark car honked, the rear door opened, from the front he could see a dude with dark glasses smiling showing him a thumb up, from inside a small girl flashed him another smile, the taps on the rear seat ruled him in... and from that moment he started a new rent-free life in a small room behind the bars.

1-There're guys who've fabricated images of 'kamige' and tried legitimizing it as an ostensible jab at EOPs only for this to then be proved how, in fact, the maker of this[these?] was a psuedo-paradox JOP+EOP who just wanted localizers and translators to go at 'good games'. Somehow, it worked and a few TLs were dumped post-inception. TLs that are actually really good. TLs that were hidden all along.
2-Then there's a fucking 'cartel' whose significance is still somehow rooted deeply and peppered about 10 years subsequent to their actual frequency.
3-Businesses which kill existing fan-projects wherein said fans dump in 100s of hours worth of work; something somehow easily discarded.
4-Translators who're lolicons in denial, promoting what might be interpreted as an imploration against lolige only for these same people, in question, to pursue them like men possessed, developing wet dreams over certain characters.
5-'Winners' who are said to be able to play any and all games owing to a perfect fluidity in Japanese only for them to struggle reading anything without referring to a dictionary/reference every 20 seconds.
6-People who want to stop you from learning Japanese because they'd go out of business otherwise
7-NTR lovers so fervent in their love of it as to perpetrate a fictitious war, in their minds, between them and everyone else[moebuta]
8-Lunatics --serious to god lunatics-- whose souls are trapped in a containment sector called /vn/ in which their brains descend further and further still to total fucking rot.

This is the only real answer. Just translate it and release it when it's done. Once it's out there the company can't do anything about it.

[Anonymous No.]

A company can't actually stop you from translating one of its works, because there's nothing illegal about it. The thing that's a copyright violation is releasing your translation to the public. Simply translating it and posting updates about it is not illegal is any sense.

Releasing a patch or the script also isn't illegal. What is is monetizing it like that Vietnamese mtlfag or sharing the full VN. Translation groups almost never do that. Prepatched VNs are a problem of the piracy scene.

What really gets the nogger jogging is that localizers and Japanese publishers never even go after pirates, ddls or torrents. The last time was Cross Days or some shit over a decade ago. If they don't come after pirates they won't come after a faggot releasing a patch.

[Anonymous No.]

I think distributing a translation probably is a copyright violation since, while the translation is "your work", the thing that you translated is "their work" and you are distributing it without their consent. Even if I'm right, though, that means that the most a company can do is tell you to not distribute something. They can't tell you to cease your own personal translation work.

[Anonymous No.]

>>45776709
It's all empty threats or as they call it friendly negotiations. They won't enforce anything anyway. They aren't Nintendo or Take-Two. Anyone can translate whatever and release it. If they came after fantranslators legally it'd make them look horribly and lose them sales which are already bad enough. Lastly, good luck suing a poorfag across the globe for translation copyright. Courts won't like it and the costs for everyone will be astronomical. Localizers have to be retarded to try that. Japanese companies that aren't Nintendo don't want international lawsuits.

As a former person who has participated in one of the projects and researched this, it's part of the Berne Convention in Article 8 as clear as day.
>Authors of literary and artistic works protected by this Convention shall enjoy the exclusive right of making and of authorizing the translation of their works throughout the term of protection of their rights in the original works.
And this was enforced in the Netherlands back in 2017 when some sub group for TV and movies tried to test the theory it wasn't.
https://torrentfreak.com/unauthorized-subtitles-for-movies-tv-shows-are-illegal-court-rules-170421/
It's a black area that won't get enforced in the VN industry until money is at stake or the industry has more money than goodwill to the public to burn. Which is why most of the translations are released as a patch without monetary compensation as that gets the least amount of attention and wrath from the rights holder. You should fear when Hollywood gets involved though more in stuff like anime because that will make it more likely for adjacent cases to be enforced even in those cases.

Yeah, Valve doesn't particularly give a fuck about the quality, length, or length for the price point when looking at what is routinely released on Steam, so releases done like Nukitashi aren't going to be a problem without Valve being willing to implement a quality requirement.

[Anonymous No.]

>>45789503

they could probably kill the practice entirely by implementing some kind of price guidelines, like x dollars per hours of content. Because it makes zero sense to charge 30 or 40 dollars for a game that's 1 or even 5 hours long.

They would have to then actually review length as part of the approval process, and that doesn't work with arcade style games.

Also, in terms of price points, you have far worse things then stuff like Nukitashi that Steam is fine with. Valve is fine with something like Earthquake Escape which has next to no content and a $200 price point.

Not doing business with a company that has fucked you over in the past seems pretty reasonable to me from a business point of view. Also Navel aren't exactly popular in the west, as shown by Navel not being impressed with the sales numbers for MG's releases and moving on to find a new publisher to translate their games. It also seems Navel are working with Hikari Field nowadays which seems to be going well for them. They have no reason to re-enter the English translation marker, especially not with games like >>45792110 which have 20 votes on vndb lol.

Well, they didn't pull out of the relationship completely, otherwise Really? Really! would've been taken down too and you can still buy that from MG.

The Navel titles ended up getting taken down off MG (likely by non-renewal of license) because Active Gaming Media wanted to put all age VNs on Steam and got Shuffle to try that (under the Yumehaven label), and then got bored when Shuffle flopped. Probably was no point to pull the license on the other two once Shuffle on Steam flopped.

All the good Navel games are prosege so why would they care about the western market?

[Anonymous No.]

What'll be licensed, will be licensed on account of an obvious:
>It insists upon itself
This means, you'll never have something like >>45794812 or overly long titles like Waga Himegimi but, conversely, the likelihood of an eventual RE:D Cherish! -and literally everything else in the CRYSTALiA catalogue- is all essentially guaranteed; In fact, I can already see a release somewhere this year.

In parcel with this, there's chance for Purplesoftwares kokuges but no Cartagra HD release.
A guarantee for everything else CLOCKUP but none whatsoever for OVERDRIVEs, say, green green.
A good enough initiative to partner with CUBE -and see some of its titles released this year even- but, in turn, 0 for everything else minatosoft, to give an example.
Highly likely to have another propellerge accepted but 0 for minorige.

Such is the law for VN translations: there's an inversely proportional relationship between long VNs with <prose> contrasted against shorter ones that are otherwise entirely simply written.
--Then, a direct proportion in regard to how chuuni/bloody or how comrom --not romcom, the distinction is important-- is hence why:
>Crystalia?
Guaranteed
>Propeller?
Guaranteed
>Silky's Plus DOLCE a la Apeiria -though I suspect Shiravune will deliver on this-
Guaranteed
>Purplege
Mostly guaranteed
>Light
Sure.
>Moonstone
Okay

However,

>Cartagra HD onegai?
Fuck off
>Aku no Onna Kanbu
Fuck you and fuck off
>Atelier..Atelier PLS
Get the fuck away from me!

That's how it is lads. That's the law of VN translations. Here's a cirno for your troubles, if this upset you.

InnoGrey games sold so bad that they decided to release 3 of them! As if i'm responsible for their shitty PR management, i bought them and i want to read the fucking sequel is it so hard to understand you dumb cunt? KnS2 banned on Steam is 100% MG responsability but i guess they are far more busy releasing random shovelware nobody care about.

Yes. Cartagra was a cheap licence given to them just because. KnS1 sold just enough for KnS2 to be licenced, but KnS2 sold like shit so InnoGrey and MG moved on.
Is it that hard to understand?

[Anonymous No.]

innogrey? more like innoghey.

[Anonymous No.]

>>45799233
Most likely is that KNS2 has such low sales that IG gave the licence to Shira and the later sitted on in for years until it was announced. MG couldn't do shit as they can't even put KNS on Steam to boost sales.

JAST must be magicians to be able to sell 4 fucking volumes of Flowers with a lot of good reviews. Flowers sales were good but InnoGrey plotge don't sell say the random anon on /jp/. Shiravune are just crazy fuckers who don't understand shit about the eroge/vn market going for a reboot of the whole KnS series and once again the sales are already so good that the third episode is planned.

Thanks China (pic related) and it also seems to have had a crazy drop in sales from the first game to the last.

Did you conveniently ignore my images of Doddler saying that KnS2 sold like shit?
>Shiravune are just crazy fuckers who don't understand shit about the eroge/vn market
I mean, this is kinda true, have you seen how badly most of their titles sell?
>once again the sales are already so good that the third episode is planned.
They licenced all three games at the same time, so unless you count 0 sales as "so good" then you're just wrong.

Did you convenitently ignore the fact that some dev can sell whole nukige on Steam but MG isn't even able to sell a plotge + adult patch as KnS2 and are crying because of low sales even though the faulty steam build is on them? You work for MG PR right? kys
>I mean, this is kinda true, have you seen how badly most of their titles sell?
And they will release KnS3 where MG can't do anything without releasing a random yaoi game so they are not that bad, seethe MG drone.
>They licenced all three games at the same time, so unless you count 0 sales as "so good" then you're just wrong.
Because unlike MG Shiravune know what InnoGrey fans want and they are here to bring us the final episode. Once and for all : kill yourself and stop doing free ad for MG

they didn't 'give it up', InnoGrey just partnered with someone else. their not exclusive partners
>gave up The SHELL 3 to Shiravune
they didn't that either. KnS1+2 sold like shit so when asked about KnS3 MG said it won't happen because it won't sell. same deal for new Da Capos. too much work for too little money. who knows why the Shiravune guy wanted to sell The SHELL 1-3 but so far it's paid off. Mangagamer suck
>not a single fuck about HD remaster of KnS or Cartagra for your customers who bought the original
MG may be socialists but don't run a charity. remember that they removed voices from Koihime because it cost too much. they added it later. why would they give you HD remasters for free? even nips have to pay for them
>no Caucasus even though it's always in their yearly poll
their polls are always bullshit and they ignore everything not BL. wake up, MG don't like you and don't give a crap about what you or anyone wants. they're barely still in the game. name their last 5 releases, you can't without looking it up. any good nukige? not in years. any good moege? not in years. any good plotge? not in years. any good yurige? not in years. any good BL.. forget it.
>>45799128
>InnoGrey games sold so bad that they decided to release 3 of them!
in nipland. MG's sales were trash. The SHELL 1 sold alright because steamchinks. MG wouldn't have gotten those numbers for HD rereleases or KnS3 because they don't have chinklations

MG is dead. NN is dying. SP is nothing but bones while JAST is laughing and Shiravune is drowning in pleasure.
The latter will translate everything worth translating and will listen + DELIVER what people actually want to read.
The former -JAST- will continue its position as the UNCONTESTABLE king of Gamege and finish the entire Nitro+ catalogue. THE ENTIRE CATALOGUE, as promised.

Only Shiravune and JAST matter.
Fuck NN. Fuck MG. Fuck SP. Fuck everything in-between. It's up to the willing and able fans to get stuff done from there.
Looking forward to Nukitashi 2, Hentai Prison, Amakano, Amanatsu, Machine Child, Minikui and Ksn3.

Well we're getting Iroseka next month >>45799949 there's also Aoi Tori coming some time between now and April. There's Nukitashi 2 and whatever else Shiravune/FanTLers decide to release.

Announcements are a different topic entirely given there isn't really consistency between when things are announced and when they're actually released.
As for releases, assuming everything actually comes out 2024's first few months already beat the entirety of 2022 for me so while I don't expect a year like last's I don't think it'll be a drought either.
