Not quite true. Kazuko and Miyako's are both short, Yukie and Chris are a bit longer (and all four are sex-heavy), but Momoyo's and Agave's are both a decent length; Momoyo's actually has more plot than porn (Agave breaks even).

 

Speaking of, Momoyo won the vote, so good job there.

I spent a long time trying to figure out how to attack this question without real spoilers.

 

I failed.

Let me start of with saying, AMAZING!!! this series is amazing and one of my absolute favs and im super exited to be able to continue it and massive thanks to the team, almost lost hope for the game... and also the impossible question, when is a ROUGH guestimate to when i can get my hands on a complete patch, or at least a patch that covers the original 5 girls continuation? 

 

Cheers!!!

I'd like to think it'll be done in a year and a half to two years. However that is assuming they complete a route a month, which might be unreasonable, however they did get Wanko's route translated in less than a month after announcing they were continuing the game, so I think it's a safe assumption. Then again, i'm not a translator, nor do I know how long the UTL'd routes are, so I could be completely off.

 

In general translating each route takes 5-20 times the amount it takes to play through it. Of course it can take even longer if the translator is not completely familiar with both languages (English and Japanese) and/or there are problems with the game engine (such as incompatible fonts or words cutting off in the wrong places, both of which are quite common).

 

So physically it would be possible to translate the game in less than half a year, but that's only if you dedicate all of your spare time on it. Seeing how the translators have a life I believe your guess is just about right; it will be done in a year or two.

Good thing majikoi isn't like that, the only thing we need to keep an eye out for is linebreaks.

 

wait so majikoi can be translated in less than a year? considering its half translated and all that stuff

That's not what he said. There's no point in trying to get an ETA for the full patch, because anything can happen.

Yeah, after all the problem last time was that the team couldn't release the patch, but were sitting on a full translation for a couple of weeks.  Dowolf seems like a pretty competent translator, but it's hard to foresee certain problems in advance, and sometimes there isn't an easy way to solve them.  Likewise, it's hard to know how much time one section is going to take compared to another because each could have their own problems.

 

For example, you wouldn't expect UI translations to take up a lot of time, at least for the translator, but the team has been working on it for as long as Dowolf was working on Kazuko's route, and it's still in progress.

Well i guess ill just have to hold my breath for now and wait till the end of the year, hope for a Christmas miracle and if there is non (which by the sound is likely going to be the case) ill touch base then, see what's happening. Ty all!

If you try to hold your breath till the end of the year, you'll pass out.

 

No pain no gain!! but seriously anticipating this one, so all i can do right now is wait XD and maybe prepare for exams and stuff but mostly the other thing! :)

You should take this opportunity to be productive.

 

Lord knows you won't when the translation does get released

 

Well said ^_^

 

Going back to the topic, I've yet to see current update for the project in awhile, who was next in the line after Kazuko :huh:

Momoko won the poll according to Dowolf

Ah the sisters eh

I can't complain, I ended up liking both of them way more than I thought I would.  Actually, with the exception of Miyako, I think I ended up liking all of the girls more than I thought I would
