solidbatman Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Sekai Project, the guys who got Narcissu 1 and 2 onto Steam, are working on getting WEE Episode 1 onto Steam. *nudge nudge* http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=216264919 I love all the love visual novels are getting on Steam now. Jast USA, make it happen with Steins;Gate. Quote
Nayleen Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Fixed the title. Nice find! And let's hope this happens and they improve their wonky translation a bit for it. Quote
Kaguya Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Awesome. World End Economica is a good VN, even though it's quite short. It's really good to see more VNs appearing on Steam. It's quite important, since it shows VNs to a lot of gamers. Quote
solidbatman Posted January 16, 2014 Author Posted January 16, 2014 Fixed the title. Nice find! And let's hope this happens and they improve their wonky translation a bit for it. They said it would be an updated translation. Quote
Nosebleed Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Always nice to see more VNs on steam. Also it's a first i scroll through the comments and people are not spitting all over the VN for once. Still wishing Steins;Gate gets there too. I wanted to read World End Economica but i'm waiting until all the volumes are translated. Quote
Flutterz Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 I might get them once all the episodes are released on Steam, provided I don't read them before that happens. Quote
Zakamutt Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 tbh, despite the ending of ep 1 leaving you wanting more, it's not a cliffhanger. Getting just the first episode is worth it.Also there is _some_ talk of a "proper translation" but it's a bit vague, given the commenter's shaky command of the english language: Quote

Zakamutt Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 that guy is clearly from the japanese side, not the sekaiproject side. part of why it feels a bit weird. Quote

pedropars Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Awesome,voted and hopefully it will get greenlit soon Quote
nohman Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 That's interesting news. The more VNs on Steam the better. Although, I've been sitting on the fence regarding World End Economica. It looks really interesting, but I've read some uncertain things regarding ep. 2 and 3 that makes me want to wait until they come out. Quote

It looks really interesting, but I've read some uncertain things regarding ep. 2 and 3 that makes me want to wait until they come out. What kind of uncertain things, exactly? I've never played one, but might as well once they release the improved translation, if it's a complete story like Zakamutt said. Quote
InvertMouse Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 I was so happy to hear Narcissu made it onto Steam. It's one of my all time favorite VNs. Tragically, I know tons of gamers will question why "that anime crap" got Greenlit. I do hope many people will give Narcissu a chance, end up enjoying it and become more open to this type of work. Those who are fans of this genre, well, might have read Narcissu. I'd be interested in knowing how many new fans we get from getting VNs onto Steam. You know what they say, haters are gonna hate (TUT). Quote

I've never played one, but might as well once they release the improved translation, if it's a complete story like Zakamutt said. Regarding their release. Obviously second hand and not a reliable source of information, but it was enough to put off the thought of reading it at the time and for me to return to it later when I didn't have such a large 'to-read' list.

Zakamutt Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 given that sekai project has contacted them, id assume a release of part two is at least somewhat more likely now. they have some experience of working with jp creators, and competent translators! Quote
ThatPlayer Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Kishida Kyoudan & The Akeboshi Rockets Only thing I got out of that trailer. Quote
Zakamutt Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Seems there won't be a retranslation, according to an update by sekai project on the greenlight page. Bit sad. Then again... Hmm. Maybe, this is fortuitous in one way~ Quote
Alucard Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 The first 18+ game on steam would be groundbreaking. I wonder what gaben thinks of that prospect. Quote
Flutterz Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 The first 18+ game on steam would be groundbreaking. I wonder what gaben thinks of that prospect. But World End Economica isn't 18+... Alucard 1 Quote
pedropars Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 The first 18+ game on steam would be groundbreaking. I wonder what gaben thinks of that prospect. I dont think anyone would be able to get a 18+ VN on steam because of the sex scenes but who knows right? Quote
InvertMouse Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Looks like the game has been Greenlit (how come the surprise face looks like of sad here XD). Quote
