Fred the Barber Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 Whee, a game I worked on is being released! 9-nine- is a pretty fun series, with a little bit of everything: mystery, chuuni action, and romance. The heroine for volume 1 is super sweet and super cute, too. Check it out on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/976390/9nineEpisode_1/. 18+ is gonna be on Denpasoft (probably up soon?) VNDB page is here: https://vndb.org/v19829 Give it a shot! yelsha57, Silvz, Antera and 3 others 6 Quote

Kenshin_sama Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 Chuuni action, good art, and edited by Fred? Sounds like a good time! Quote
Dergonu Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 Pre-orders are up for the Denpasoft version. It sadly does seem to have mosaics, but at least they are fairly light. (And hey, animated H ) Quote

I like my animated H too, but honestly, you're probably better off turning it off on this one. At least the art is glorious. I can't get enough of the characters' beautiful eyes In general, though, the production values on this game are super high. The music is spot-on, and it even has a fully voiced protag (even during H scenes, though they're turned off by default) with a sprite that shows up now and then.

yelsha57 Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 I'm looking forward to reading this one. I will wait till all of the episodes are released, since I prefer to read it when it is fully released. Quote

Sorry it's not to your taste, but she uses unique-to-her, made-up nicknames for her brother, so when she does that, we localized them. That particular line has her call him "nii-yan", for example. Translating them helps her come off as quirky in English, the way she comes off as quirky in Japanese. If it's any consolation, literally every time she uses everybody's favorite actual word, "onii-chan", it's just transliterated as "onii-chan". Nicknames are still the weirdest hill for VN fans to die on, honestly... kokoro, adamstan, Shiru and 4 others 6 1 Quote

novurdim Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 I have very mixed feelings about the "dude" one, do we seriously have to make such a horrible localization choice (that can only be adequately used in the extremely rare occasions) mainstream... God help us. Incynerate 1 Quote
yelsha57 Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) Well Im happy it's released, and it looks cool. I just have vns I need to finish 1st. Hopefully all of the episodes will be released by the time I'm finished reading the vns that I need to finish. Edited February 1, 2019 by yelsha57 Quote

Those are also kinda like piracy, but in a different way xD Not exactly piracy, but if the "uploader" does an entire playthrough, then you don't need to buy the said VN anymore xD Quote
adamstan Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) Yep, but I have to apologize to @yelsha57 - I have mistaken him for another user that did this. Edited February 1, 2019 by adamstan Quote

And currently I'm feeling really mindfucked tbh - I could swear that day or two ago I saw some posts in this very forum where some user explicitly said that they read the VN discussed in that topic on YT, but now I cannot find it at all... It's almost like second part of Mio's route from LB! Spoiler Did she wear glasses in bookstore or didn't she? Quote
