Decay Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 Am I high or are you guys high? Baldr Force wasn't up against Dies irae, Dies irae is a seeded game and we're in the group stages still. And once the bracketed phase begins they won't even be in the same brackets! Baldr Force is still alive and well in this tournament. Quote

It's disappointing that not a lot of people can appreciate the series like I did. Need more visual novels with gameplay localized. Quote
Decay Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 But it's being voted on! It's still alive! So is Baldr Sky! Am I being trolled??? Quote

Decay Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 Baldr Sky is a seeded game, so it gets to skip the group stages. Check out the full blog post on the tournament here: https://vnrw.wordpress.com/2016/01/22/most-desired-visual-novel-translation/ Baldr Force won its group vote so it's going to be put into the A1 spot on those brackets, which comically enough puts it very close to Baldr Sky.

Ahh cool thanks for that! But seriously? White Album 2 is beating Baldr Sky? What is this madness!? Quote
Decay Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 I'd vote for WA2 over Baldr Sky. But that first vote is largely meaningless, it was just a fun thing he did that spawned the idea, it doesn't have any influence on the tournament. CeruleanGamer 1 Quote
Maxel Posted January 24, 2016 Author Posted January 24, 2016 About the structure of tournament it's like this: 2 out of 4 picks from the groups are seeded into Winners/Main bracket, there are some titles already seeded into the main bracket. The losers in the winners bracket are seeded into the Losers bracket where they fight each other. From what I understand, Losers bracket will have it's own winner. I'd vote 51/100 times for Baldr Sky and 49/100 times for White Album, so... I don't really understand why HaruKuru got so many votes, and why is this title winning against IroSeka /Edit Added Seeded Games list. Quote

They'll fellate anything with them regardless of the actual quality of the story. Quote

Freestyle80 Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 isnt there already a team translatiing Irotoridori no Sekai? Sakura no Uta seems the most interesting one here though Quote
Scorp Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 Why no one loves Evolimit? Sakura no Uta just had lot of hype by me. But by me Clannad and most stories from Key are overrated as well, so... Anyway, vote for Evolimit. Much better choice than that Kururu imo. XReaper and Chronopolis 2 Quote
Down Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 HaruKuru is legit good though, not just because of Dem Plot Twists. Better than a wasted potential pile of boredom like IroSekai. SakuUta is a few levels above the rest, so there's no contest though. This contest overall is pretty funny. It's like some sort of fascinating sociological experiment on the way hype and popularity are created. Most people voting choose based on bad vndb synopses and the inevitably warped perception they have of those games from the way they're talked about by a handful of people who played them and a bunch of others who didn't.

Freestyle80 Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 HaruKuru is good? dat seems like a generic story u'd find anywhere though judging from the description Quote
