A rant about the translation scene and the community revolving it.
Arcadeotic commented on Aizen-Sama's blog entry in Aizen's Rambling Corner
Well, there's a lot that can be improved upon, but I honestly can't be arsed to write another wall 'o text. First up, if you want to make a great hub for TL projects, you need to separate us from the rest, so a forum-like platform just doesn't do at all. Secondly, the Fan translation skill registration. Only the newest page is relevant, and the previous pages don't get looked at almost at all, which is a problem, but that comes along with forums of today. Borderline, forums are a place of chatter, not hard progress. The first place would be to get off from the forum-based platforms and build from there. That's essential. -
A rant about the translation scene and the community revolving it.

I 100% agree with you on almost everything, and that's the reason we get so well along in this scene in the first place. Anyways, yeah, the scene and groups is getting isolated, and it's pretty damn visible too; I doubt all the lunatic entitlement, putting TL-groups and the members within on a pedestal, and the clear lack of straightforward ways of communicating with the groups helps. Also, don't use IRC as a communication-hub for god's sakes, IRC is terrible. The easiest way to leviate this "chasm" growing between TL-groups and people waiting for patches is just making that easy way of communication. So, if there's any groups and/or group members reading this post, just set up a Discord server, for fucks sake. Takes literally 30 minutes. Joining hands with other groups as a group of your own really is a good way of helping other groups helping themselves and vice versa. Unity's also a really good thing, and the groups get things done more efficiently this way, which s why Aizen and I started that whole Discord server in the first place. As for the entitlement, that's not goin' anywhere anytime soon. People will be salty shitheads until the end of time. All we can really do aside from communicating with them is to wait for quote-on-quote "selling out" to become more common and to more fan translation projects to start cooperating with the official localization companies. As for Fuwa as the hub of translation projects, frankly, it's too outdated to work properly. Sure it gives publicity nicely, but that's basically it looking at what else it does well. Maybe at some point there'll be a better option for a hub, but only time will tell. -

Bishoujo Mangekyou TL Update 29: New server, new beginnings
Arcadeotic posted a blog entry in Arc's VN Talk
What an eventful week this was. First up, some progress on both the editing and QC was made. Now, it isn't the most, but progress is always progress, and I'm happy about it. We'll try to make some amount of progress every week. Second up, I had my hands full polishing some things and making our very own Discord server, now open for public. So, if you have some questions, want to chat with the staff, or just bitch me about how much of a fuckboy I am, go on ahead. Now without further ado, here's the link to the server. You can also get the link from the main page, in Recruitment, and in Contact Us. Progress thus far: Translation: 100% Editing: 33,9% QC: 20,1% Proofreading: 0% Until next week. -

I'd suggest Plastic Memories, Karin (Chibi Vampire), and Spice and Wolf Plastic Memories has tear-jerking story and god characters, Karin is a shounen romance done right, and Spice and Wolf is just straight-up amazing

Give Hoshizora no Memoria and Irotoridori no Sekai along with it's FDs a try

Ehh, I guess Koiken Otome is the safest choice to go for, since we don't have your VNDB available to be seen And I've been meaning to say this for the longest time: that's a veeeerrrry nice profile pic you have there

You thought the sky was the limit for Sakura games?
Arcadeotic replied to Nosebleed's topic in Visual Novel Talk
Since we're giving out titles for upcoming Sakura titles -- and let's be honest, over half of them are going to become a reality at some point -- here's a snazzy tier-list me and couple of friends convo'd a good while ago, more than half thought by yours truly. It features Sakura-fied™ titles from VNs, movies, memes, and other video games alike. Embedded version for slackers: Good times -

Arcadeotic replied to Nosebleed's topic in Visual Novel Talk
Art's even more shit than before, the designs are pretty uninteresting and terrible, now they're going with """"special"""" hairstyled and/or colors, seems like a cheap knock-off of Sunrider Academy with the MC's gender switched, and it just feels like WG is trying to ride the success of Corona Blossom with the half-assed space-setting. Egh, passing this so hard. Completely uninteresting. I'd expect more from Winged Cloud, but who has standards for them in the first place? -
Anyone Really Religious here?
Arcadeotic replied to mitchhamilton's topic in The Coliseum of Chatter
Believe it or not, but I'm actually a pretty sworn Christian I find the backstory incredibly interesting and I overall like religion very much, and it's one of the biggest reasons why I got so into mythology
