Decay Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 3 hours ago, Nosebleed said: VNDB's nukige tag is really iffy to be honest. I think all of the nukige I played never have it. Example: In this game there's a sex scene not even 30 mins into the game, and the rest of the game after that is sex scene after sex scene without ever taking a break. All the endings are sex based, with the true ending being you impregnating your sister and the ending card being her covered in semen with a pregnant belly. Still no nukige tag, and this one has been translated. That's marked as nukige, very clearly. Please do not complain about the VNDB tag system if you refuse to contribute. The tag system is an open voting system, if you don't vote for tags then complain about their absence, you're just being a huge hypocrite. Funnerific and Kawasumi 2 Quote
DharmaFreedom Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 Honestly I think Fan-TLs should get a bonus for marketing those games 2. A fan-tl gets announced, people get excited and check for updates weekly or monthly. Research the game that's being translated and salivate when its close to 'release' . Then Sekai licenses those projects and capitalizes on it. I wouldn't have known about a lot of games if it weren't for fan-tls. They just do so much to push their games forward and garner interest. Well Decay did mention that Sekai pays the best so that's great for them. Its good that they get something out of all the hours they put in. Quote
bronx819 Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 4 hours ago, Nosebleed said: Exactly my point, the nukige tag is basically irrelevant in most cases. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It's under the sexual erm, dunno what its called. Usually people just hit all to see what kinda content VN's have, but you have to hit sexual to see all the stuff like cowgirl, missionary, blowjob, and in this case, nukige. I didn't even know it had a nukige tag either till I investigated some more. Quote
Decay Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 Oh yeah, also: So I really don't know what you guys are on about. Quote
Yuuko Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 OK Dovac confirmed Koikuma going to Steam but he has no idea how it is going to work either. Quote

Yuuko Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 NekoWorks did the editing for Nekopara. Probably the same for Smile and Koikuma. Quote

Those aren't really nukige though Doubt they can do much pushing with a nukige. Quote
Suzu Fanatic Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 Push hard enough though - and someone is bound to push back. But that's just me overthinking it Quote
Erogamer Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 What I don't understand is why there are two companies involved in the localizing of one game? Quote

If you're referring to Smile, those are the developers. Therefore, the developers have both insisted on a Steam release and are handling it themselves. And if I may turn into Rooke for a moment: if they're willing to do that much I don't see why they don't just localise it themselves, but that's beside the point. Quote

There's always at least two, the Japanese license holder and the localization company doing the translation. Smile are the Japanese devs behind the game. A lot of people seem to forget that these companies are often very involved in the localization process. Quote

Because they're game creators, not overseas publishers. Creating game content and translation + distribution + marketing in a foreign language require very different skill sets. Just look at Debonosu's "efforts" to release games in English. Quote

Crayten Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 I hope we will get a review from Koikuma's all-ages version. Im couting on you @Decay Quote
Nosebleed Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 But like, how are they even going to adapt the story to make it all-ages? This is a serious question. In most eroge, removing h-scenes doesn't really impact the story, but here the story is the porn... Quote

You can get away with a lot on Steam these days. Quote
