No need to thank me.

Like the Sakura games wasn't enough.

Please don't destroy another game MoeNovel...

Well, fortunately, though I am a fan of Pulltop, not really a fan of this particular game.

 

I just realised that this is NOT another PULLTOP game... I thought it's 恋神 (LoveKami) by PULLTOP... Sorry

i don´t see any wrong with exploiting pre-mature fags, or is there?

Thank you Kiririri. Because of you I know that we'll got another VN that rivaled Dies Irae or Baldr Sky in term of quality. Look forward to the release.

PS - Okay, did we really need MoeNovel answer to Winged Cloud Sakura franchise here?

[ChaosRaven]

The title is called 'LoveKami... Useless Goddess'?!?

Well, economist say that more competition means better quality, right? Right?

This has to be a joke right?

Regretfully, no. Though at least Moenovel isn't shitting up stuff with actual quality to it these days ｗ

[Decay]

The translation of Divinity Stage, the last VN they released, was of acceptable quality. The opinions I've seen of the VN itself was that while it wasn't very good, it was still better than they expected. Like, it had actual routes and drama and stuff. It still seems like trash, but it's at least not Sakura-levels of trash.

Exactly the kind of VN to save Steam once again.

[Clephas]

I hated the fact that they defiled the original LoveKami by making a random brainless sequel... (the original not being translated).

[Soulless Watcher]

I guess I should be happy for more Japan/English simultaneous releases......

[Yuuko]

Uhh just saying that these games never got Japanese release even though they were written originally in Japanese and voiced in Japanese.

You know a game is good when they literally won't sell the damn thing in Japan

''sigh'' not another VN from Moenovel, was not My Heart Had Wings enough.

Shall they destroy another amazing VN so have sexual content but with their VN not have sexual content, like My Heart Had Wings.

I hope translation are good in this one but I'm not going to read this VN since it don't have sexual content when it suppose to have sexual content.

I'm going to read it when somebody decide to full translate this VN include H-secene.

Neither this VN, nor their previous one, are "supposed" to have sexual content. They were created as all-ages titles from the start.

In the specific case of this VN, I don't get all the hate. MoeNovel may be known by their problems in the past, but at least they are releasing something and seem to be improving on their job - as Decay pointed out and still nobody commented, their last release was not bad, which means much more than a game released 4 years ago when we only had 10 other to compare it to.

Besides, this kind of game is exactly what brought us here, since it is basically an eroge in its roots, but made for steam players. Sakura Series only sells a fucking lot because they are what users want - being big boobs or easy-to-read stories, and this LoviKami seems  a harmless attempt to get money from a game that may actually sell, instead of depending on Kickstarter or stuff.

Well, Chrono Clock was released while ago, with a very, very similar idea (moe girls being moe) and Fuwans enjoyed it. The difference here is only the team handling it, right?

Don't think that I don't love to see DI, Steins;Gate 0, Tokyo Babel etc being the new elite of translated VNs, but I think hating over a still unreleased game just for the hipocrisy? Wasn't this Forum that started a World War because of H-scenes?

[Zakamutt]

We hate on Sakura, we hate on this. Both are targeting the ecchi-loving weeb demographic and do pointedly not include hardcore pornography; I see no real hypocrisy involved. With that said, certainly this is preferable to their first effort. It just isn't anything I care about or would read. I also dont care about Chrono Clock, lol.

Chrono Clock actually had some interesting ideas though and the premise was a good draw for readers, nothing was really done with them, but at the very least there was a spark of creativity. Not to mention that there was actual sexual content for those who wanted it. 

This, just feels like they are selling the cover art. Especially, considering this is already the second all-ages spin-off of, if Clephas is to be believed, a much better title. 

I don't hate the title, I understand the need and the marketing decisions behind it, but it's hard to get particularly excited for it knowing it will be a short title, more then likely much shorter then Chrono Clock, with little substance.

Let me guess. Another kinetic VN?

The last one wasn't, and this one seems like it won't be, either.

[Chuee]

The real shame is that instead of translating, you know... some of the games pulltop actually put effort into making, they keep having them make these cheap cashgrab VNs. It's almost like moenovel is averse to actually putting in serious effort.

You really think Moenovel is calling the shots at Pulltop and not the other way around?

[exaccuss]

Is there any reason why they didnt start with LoveKami first? I mean apparently it is longer and honestly, sounds better. Is it just because the one they translated is quicker, which would equal a quicker sale? Im confused lol.
