Eh I'm late to this but nevermind. Firstly, I just wanna say sorry you had to stop the translation, Aaeru I know you were really passionate about it and working hard so we could all play it asap.
I don't necessarily agree with all of Aaerus points, but I think everyone else has out forward plenty of things to think about for the time being!
What I do want to mention is that some people seem to criticize MG for not releasing quicker. Yeah I agree they could (should) be much faster than they are, but one of the problems with doing everything completely legally and by the book is that it takes a lot of time. These Japanese companies generally don't care at all about their potential western market, and I think the fact that MG has managed to establish relationships and secure rights is an achievement and a step forward for visual novels in the West. Whether they are dealing with the rights well once they have them is another matter (and indeed whether you even agree with the concept of copyrights at all).
