Darklord Rooke Posted September 29, 2015 Posted September 29, 2015 *Check* Japanese developers taking notice of the English audience *Check* Translation planned during the development phase, semi-significant step *Check* A very slick piece of text advertising the game, instead of the Engrish some companies produced when they’re not on the ball. *Expected but small con* Reliance and expectations on kickstarter. Hope they don't expect TOO much. I’ll give this a go when it's released… or maybe I’ll just wait for Clephas’ mini-review in November(?) before I decide Quote
sanahtlig Posted September 29, 2015 Posted September 29, 2015 Loli vampires are a weakness of mine. Definitely interested if there's going to be an uncut version. I don't think an uncut version is a foregone conclusion at this point. XReaper and Suzu Fanatic 2 Quote
Satsuki Posted September 29, 2015 Author Posted September 29, 2015 Now I just wish some other October titles would delay for a month or so. My October list is way too long already... Quote
Crayten Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Uncut version btw confirmed. MiKandi Japan @MiKandiJapan 2 Std.Vor 2 Stunden @CraytenX Thanks for asking. Xero's writers are making two very enjoyable versions. The uncut version will be free. Quote
Decay Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Will be... free? What does that mean? Quote

Narcosis Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 It will be free if you'll buy the Steam version, that's propably what they meant. Quote
Decay Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 That's what I'm assuming but better to know for sure when they use such odd wording. Quote
SilverLi Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Well I am happy to see they are at least responding to the potential customers and give us information. They seem eager at least. Suzu Fanatic 1 Quote
HotTrax Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Yes! We will make trading cards. To be announced in a future update. Sold! Quote
Suzu Fanatic Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 I will give them that, their PR is pretty spot-on. Voted it in - there are far worse things floating around Steam - I have no issues with this coming through. If the PR is any sign of the overall writing quality, it shouldn't be anything cringe-inducing, at least. Quote
XReaper Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 might be left to mention that it seems both versions (uncut + all ages) are going to differ not only in terms of them consisting of ero content or not, as from their last post i got the vibe xero is somehow rewriting the all ages version (including xtra content?), so that it wont be inferior when compared to the original one. definitely a nice moove from both, mikandi & xero who are closely working together on bringing us fine stuff in the west, without leaving their (future) customers in the dark. thumbs up & glad i supported them for a good while now Suzu Fanatic 1 Quote
Decay Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 It sounds like they're just glorifying the standard h-scene replacements/minor rewrites that go into most all-ages releases so Steam users don't feel like they're missing out. sanahtlig 1 Quote
Suzu Fanatic Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Tsk tsk, so cynical But I'm of the same mind, tbh. But still, the fact they're willing to at least "try" spruce up the all-ages version, is still a huge difference compared to some stuff that simply gets gutted and sold as-is. Quote

Decay Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 My feelings on this are very complicated. cucked so hard. Suzu Fanatic, Darklord Rooke, MiKandi Japan and 2 others 5 Quote
sanahtlig Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 If it makes you feel any better, I hadn't even realized you'd made a Fuwazette post about this game. Quote
Mr Poltroon Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 If it makes you feel any better, I hadn't even realized you'd made a Fuwazette post about this game. I can't take this as anything but the evilest reply I've seen in a while. sanahtlig, Schnarf and FinalChaos 3 Quote
Satsuki Posted October 1, 2015 Author Posted October 1, 2015 Random info from onomatope*'s producer: For Onomatope*, Libra of the Vampire Princess is new, but as a company XERO, we have some Chuuni-byo games. The reason we made this game is because we already made a vampire game about 8 years ago which had a good response from fans and we wanted to revisit a similar world. Chuuni-byo is still popular in Japan too, so we decided it was good timing. This game was planned for Japan first, then later we had the idea to introduce it to the West. We decided this game because we thought it is exciting to try one of our new titles and also because we think vampires are popular around the world. So yes, this is a Chuuni-byo game but this is also XERO's game, so normal life scenes have a lot of comedy and a fun feeling too, so I hope you can enjoy playing! If anyone interested, this is the one from 8 years ago that they mentioned. XReaper 1 Quote
XReaper Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 h-how could i overlook this title all the time.... edit: the way they handle their pr + responding to peoples questions/ doubts quite openly is pretty cool and makes me wish some certain well known western publisher *beep name censored would take this as an example for how to do it right, when beeing in the game for so long now... edit2: just realized that c-drive is ALSO part of xero.. kotowari....mhmmmm Quote
sanahtlig Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 I hadn't even realized they were the makers of Draculius. Apparently that's a pretty good vampire game too. Quote
Decay Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Well, the scenario writer for Draculius joined Frontwing and was the lead on Grisaia, and he's not coming back for this. I still get the impression that fanservice is more important than the actual story in this. Quote
kyrt Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 I don't recall seeing this earlier but kickstarter is a big nah for me with too many missing variables. It would be great if we could still get it since they've more or less confirmed that the 18+ version will be available via patch so the cut content issue is not an issue (I think the poll definitely helped). I think the biggest walls this visual novel has to climb is that it's by an unknown company and is an unknown game. The majority of vns kickstarted that have had a great success are visual novels with either a fan-translation or some sort of company renown; this one does not seem to have either and I'm curious if visual novel fans will be willing to put their money towards a project like this...they definitely will need a prefundia to get the word out because of this.Vampire Princess Libra of - Libra of the Vampire Princess Home → Works → Vampire Princess Libra of - Libra of the Vampire PrincessAnd preparing a crowdfunding for overseas English Translation & production! Towards the supporters, including the English version of the game, we plan to align the Libra goods of various Vampire Princess.Coming soon! "Libra of the Vampire Princess", an incredible Japanese Visual novel Will begin on Kickstarter soon. We Will raise money for an English version of the Game and offer many Rewards That fans More Fan CAN enjoy. If you love Visual Novels, vampires, or both, then please support us! Quote
Satsuki Posted October 11, 2015 Author Posted October 11, 2015 I think you forgot that all of the indie games on Kickstarter are "unknown game from an unknown group".And no, they already decided to make 2 version of the game before the poll was even made. Quote
CeruleanGamer Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 I see a girl that looks like a nun.... The way she's dressed is asking to be violated... :P MiKandi Japan 1 Quote
