That's encouraging to hear. I'll probably give it a try soonish. It's not the cheapest VN on the block and I just spent a bunch on steam so I gotta wait for a bit before I spend much more.

Nice man, how’s it going? Is it particularly difficult to read? I’ve been holding off on reading any of the VNs that I really want to read so I can make sure that I’m a capable enough reader for the experience to be enjoyable. Been working up my reading ability with manga and just recently started getting some decent comprehension in light novels. I think once I feel more comfortable with LNs I’ll try some more serious VNs.

Mashiro iro Symphony has been the top of my wishlist for as long as I've known about it. At some point though it became a top motivator for learning Japanese. If it ever gets translated, I probably won't read it in English although I would probably back a physical version kickstarter if they decide to do one of those since the physical Japanese version is kinda expensive.

Nope, no PMs here. Not a big deal to me but I did want be able to edit the thread so no one would be disappointed with a dead code like you were. I just hope it didn’t get sucked up by a bot or anything.

rip sorry dude

idk if any here actually plays FFXIV, but I just got a code for a black, fat chocobo mount that I don't need so I'm giving it away here. I'll just leave it in a spoiler tag in this thread and whoever gets to it first can use it. I only ask that A) you only take it if you plan to actually use it and B) say that you've used the code so I can edit the thread title appropriately.

A refined taste, to be sure.

Are the audio files in their own folder that you can get to easily? Usually they're hidden away in a proprietary archive format. Even if it were a simple drag and drop situation, the version of the game that you have wasn't made with those new audio files in mind so it won't know to play them. You'd have crawl through the script files and write a new "play audio [x]" command at each and every spot that one of the new audio files is supposed to play at. It'd be pretty painstaking work.

I just started one to track my games in general so I can see what my backlog looks like. I think the columns are Title, Started?, Finished?, Score, Platform, and Note. I have the sheet set to change the fill color of any cell containing the words “Yes” or “No” to green or red respectively so in the started/finished columns I can easily see what games I’ve finished because those games will have a double-length green bar in their row. The list doesn’t actually contain many VNs, only those few that I have on Steam. Mostly because if I ever want to share the sheet I don’t want it to have a bunch of NSFW games listed. I may make a separate sheet for VNs.

Orfluers - You might need a somewhat liberal interpretation of "medieval" to make this one fit. The brothers are all knights (I think) so that's why I’m posting it, but most of the screenshots seem like the setting is a bit later than "medieval."

So, dead project or no?

Are we really coming up on a year since the last VNTLS?

Doesn’t your use of the word “they” imply that you think of Japanese people as being different from yourself? Possibly from a foreign land with a different culture?

Yeah, I meant in general. I've pretty much banned myself from reading translations at this point. Still can't figure out why all the Shuffle! sequels have DL editions but the original and Essence+ are stuck on discs. Did some manufacturing company buy exclusive distribution rights in the early days or something?

What are the odds they do a digital release of Essence+ to hype of the sequel? I remember Shuffle! was one of my first 5 anime. It introduced me to just about every trope in the book. Winning the heart of a future love interest in a one-off encounter as kids. Yandere. Harems in general (I remember being amazed at this “love pentagon” lol). Childhood friend love interest. Colliding with a girl in the hallway and ending up in a compromising situation. Beach episodes. It’s all there really.

Do you let on that you're very knowledgeable of otaku media or do you play dumb? I know that's what I'd do 100%.

Appears to be another one o them DMM card games: http://games.dmm.co.jp/en/detail/heromemor/

I don't think OP is asking about any kind of machine translation, they just want the unvoiced text to be read out in Japanese, which is something Google Translate can do in addition to its attempts at translating. Definitely seems useful if you're shaky on Kanji readings. That said, I have no idea how to get something like that to work.

Where'd you get the VN? If you got it legit I wouldn't worry, but if you torrented it maybe something else.

Well, the ol' VNDB character trait method has failed me this time. I've tried various combinations of: - Black hair - Blue Eyes - Gloves - Evening gloves - Dress - Braid - Braided headband - Quickie Fix No luck though. Probably just means no one has bothered to get super detailed with setting the girl's traits yet.

This thread is 3 years old . . .

The Soccer scene in Fate/Hollow Ataraxia is one of my all time favorite heart-warmer scenes. You get to see a playful, curious side of Saber that you don't really get to see anywhere else in F/SN or HA. I remember being surprised that I enjoyed that scene so much because I usually dislike scenes where the characters randomly visit the park.

Ah shoot I didn't even see that one. On topic: I don't have the tools, but have you tried Garbro: https://github.com/morkt/GARbro ?

That project is dead and has been for a while. @CryingWestern was the guy behind it but he hasn't said anything in years and the project website has been taken down.
