Ahah, that one. That one was fun. For a no budget game it is really good.
Downloaded a newer version of Lessons in Love, hoping he actually added a better event tree (or something) as he threatened to, but nope. I somehow manage to find where to go eventually just by clicking around a lot. I'm planning to make a tiny javascript thing as an alternative to that wiki, something where you type how many events you have seen of every character and it gives you list of which scenes are available to you, I'll do that when I catch up with the latest version ,which probably means in half a  year or so with my speed. Can't really use wiki when you are offline, can you. I think the worst is behind me by now anyway.

I'm thinking of getting into umineko, but not sure where I should start. Those japs never heard of using numbers, so reading torrent list is very confusing. Two biggest torrent are each 10 GB, and one of them is a giant rar file, while other seems to have a giant amount of files inside. People pack resources in one file for a reason, but I guess they never heard of that, you are supposed to pack files back after you finished with translation..

I don't have enough free space to just download the entire thing right now. I'd rather download one episode for starters.

It is possible that the game total ends up smaller just because of many repeated sprites between episodes.
I'm starting to think that I'd rather listen to text to speech of real novels rather than read visual novels. My eyes are tired.

There are about 5 livetimes worth of youtube retards doing letsplays and talking about whatever, I often can close my eyes and still be somewhat entertained during those. When I watch some anime or movie, I'm like "oh no, some effort went into this, I better actually watch this", so I keep delaying and delaying actually watching those because I'm not in the mood right now. With letsplays though it's like "whatever, it's garbage anyway, I lose nothing if I close my eyes for a second". Because of that I watched much more letsplays than anime somehow.

Searching for good drama cds / voice works on dlsite is annoying as fuck, mainly because of how slow that site is. They also aren't pirated as much by foreigners usually, harder to get those.

I want a visual novel where narration is actually narrated.
Do you think text to speech of esperanto is easier to make than text to speech of english? That language is more "write as you hear" than english, less fucked up. Japs use text to speech all the time in stream chats, their language is just simple enough to do that easily.

I was wondering if character can't count, if character pretends to can't count for extra cute points, or if developer can't count. Turns out translators can't count.

For some reason she feels less cute whenever I read her in english.

When I read english her I imagine some fat twitter addicted woman who is hysterical and demanding and bitchy, 

when I look at her sprite I imagine a clingy cute girl, 

and when I look at what she says rather than how she says it I imagine some middle aged man writing a girl who is as knowledgeable in otaku stuff as he is, and also a girl that is possibly secretly extremely manipulative towards everyone, although honestly scared.

Almost done with this game, this link lists how to get each ending https://guwa.dnsdojo.net/needy-streamer-overload-ending/ . They would be a nightmare to get on my own. Not hard, but just extremely boring, I'd have to waste hours to maybe or maybe not get some new content.
Needy girl overload, turns out I was done with this game. Was thinking that if I follow exactly what she did during the autoplay I will get some kind of new ending. Recorded and retyped everything and tried to follow that exactly, but we get different amount of followers, thus desync at day 11. I often try to get surprised, but always get extra bored instead.

Day 2: Playing, ???, Streaming about games. 18/44/15
Day 3: Video, Video, Idol anime. 24/44/15 1060 (probably one gaming here too, wait no you can't)
Day 4: Twitter, ???, All Hail The Internet. 48/44/15 (Let's do one gaming here)
Day 5: Going somewhere, 38/50/15, What makes a nerd, 52/50/15
Day 6: Going somewhere, 42/56/15, I tried wearing Gothic Lolita, 60/56/15
Day 7: Gaming, ???, 52/60/15, Streaming retro games I bought, 70/60/15
Day 8: Gaming, ???, 62/64/15, What if the Government Made you a Nerd, 82/64/23
Day 9: Big Pills, Thanks for 10K subs, 70/64/29
Day 10: Gaming, ???, 62/68/29, Only one government 30 years later? 82/68/37
Day 11: Small pills, Gaming stream 3, 96/68/43 (DONT SEE IT, need to use twitter at some point for that)
Got to 100K views faster than the replay did.
I guess I'm on my own here.
ME: Day 11: 100K celebration.
Day 12: Sex? 87/68/41, Feeling Great (breakdown stream?), 100/68/49 (Welp, the cuttening) (Yeah, cuttening anyway)
Okay, I can't follow that replay from here on.
Day 13: Sex? 91/68/47, An Important Message (breakdown stream 2), 91/68/57
seriously what is it, she just walks offscreen but no train animation, and no affection risen.
Maybe drugs? Streams make it look like you need drugs for this.
It is very likely to represent breakdown scene.
Day 14: Sex? 82/68/55, a aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa 82/68/65
Day 15: Sex? 73/68/63, Trying out a new drink 91/68/63
Day 16: Date 81/74/63, Let's play the classic horror game 99/74/63
Day 17: Playing 91/78/63, Celebrating 250K (no celebrating 100K?)
Day 18: Video 83/78/63, Celebrating 500K
Day 19: Date 73/84/63, Get Ready With Me (ad), 91/84/63
Day 20: Playing 83/88/63, Beware of microchips 100/88/71
Day 21: Date 90/94/71, Final gaming stream 100/94/71
Day 22: Date to hospital 90/100/61, The Internet Angel


I think I have an idea why I don't get the same amount of viewers. Deleting just everyone lowers the amount of followers. Maybe.

I heard that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix_(manga) was the inspiration for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saya_no_Uta . English wikipedia says nothing about it, but japanese one mentions it.

Remember that one incident, when one eroge was infected with a virus and was sending screenshots of desktop of everyone who pirated it, and there was a 2ch thread of people digging through such screenshots? And one was from an eroge gourmet that had different categories drawn right on his desktop, and was putting eroge shortcuts on "cleared" area or "something else" area of desktop.

If you have a youtube account, tell her to not record black bars by the sides, if you watch such video on an actual 4:3 monitor you'll get double letterbox, black bars from every side. Tell her to try to play such games with IntegerScaler program, or to cut such bars in whatever video editor she's using.

I think this is an ayylmao game that cleverly pretends to be a rabbit girl game. This game also feels like a giant shitpost made by a bunch of teen girls. Not sure if a waste of time or not, I skimmed through.

I need to actually finish dohna dohna. I said I finished it, but like half of scenes in it require you to play badly, or to do weird conditions like pairing specific whores with specific customers. That game really is a goldmine for ntr fags. I've seen only 3 of the sucker scenes, one with sword princess, one with loli, and one with 2 alices. I kinda got genius girl raped too, but I loaded the moment I understood what I've done. Plus I'm yet to see all endings, hoped I'd see them on youtube but no luck.

I wonder if situation with ntr in japanese internet is akin to situation with traps on reddit, they hate it but they pretend to like it to shit in everyone's mouth. Though, japs talk with their vallets, buying shit you hate is a serious power play. It's not nearly as widespread as some people might make you think though, it's about 1 per 200 works.

Dohna dohna is a seriously heartwrecking game at times. Police that terrorizes it's own population hits too close to home. And the population itself being as corrupt as police is the most depressing thing about it. I understand the protag, I too wanted to just burn the entire place to the ground.

>like half of scenes in it require you to play badly
This is why I never 100% vns, especially the ones that disable the skip button for unseen dialogue.
This one being? Is typing name too annoying, or you don't want to give this game more publicity?

Novels that are annoying to read are called games.

I'm not sure why would you even want to skip text in a novel, what's the point of reading it then. I only do that to the worst of the worst, like western ones with cheap 3d cgi.

Being given a choice, and then forcing yourself to 100% a game feels selfdefeating. What's the point of choosing between 5 different girls if you are going to read all of their routes anyway? Rather than trying to suck every last piece of content from a game, treating it like some sort of simulation and accepting whatever the outcome is is a valid way to play, especially if you don't buy the games you play and are drowning in them anyway.

Calling you "real people", heh, you are just letters on my screen. I'm just staring at a lamp for the last XX years.

We need to create a thread for every visual novel to ever exist (or more realistically for every developer). We need to increase the amount of simultaniously opened threads to 10000. We must move to textboards.
Hid tags and ratings on vndb.org with this custom css, install Stylus browser extension to use it. Should've done this ages ago.

Maybe I shouldn't have ignored Return to Shironagasu Island. Images posted in this thread made that game look like a smell fetish game, but cover is actually good.

The anime adaptation was the only harem I've enjoyed. It's an omnibus format, where the story is reset between routes. The MC has a personality, likes girls, has a sex drive, and is proactive. He's also somewhat relatable. The girls have good designs (except the fatty), are all interesting (except the fatty), aren't just a collection of tropes (including the fatty, unfortunately), and are all interested in romance (except the fatty). No real drama, no melodrama. It's just solid all around. Music is great too.

Nah, GoG has been gradually letting in more VNs and JRPGs for years ever since they noticed Steam started censoring
They tried to do a "Sega does what Nintendon't" type thing but the problem is their curation system keeps out too many games under the those of quality control

Lmfao
I'll check it out, is it okay to play it out of order? Out of all rance games I only played Sengoku Rance, and even that only halfway. Despite Rance being so explicitly not into fucking kids in that game, the game still featured 2 cg with lolis, both were barely satisfying due to you doing no dicking there.

Dohna dohna, despite having a "loli" in it, didn't had that loli as properly flat. Gibe me flat lolis. Barely anyone adds proper flat lolis in games besides littlewitch developer.
Finished Sekien no Inganock -What a Beautiful People-, I feel like they planned to have 2 loli heroines in this game, but then aged up one of them (without removing the golden eye effect on her from text), and tamed up sex scene to the other one to just hugging. Fuck you 2007, go to hell. And they dare to still put loli in tags.

Need to play Souten no Celenaria ~What a Beautiful World~ next. Fucking hell, readme didn't even mention that Inganock is the second part in the series. I keep playing it backwards.

Been playing through Eiyuu Senki, and while the combat itself is fun, there's way too many fucking events.

Basically spent the past day following the loop of:
>Conquer 1 city
>20 events unlock
>every event you do unlocks 5 more events
>spend the next 20 turns doing events to thin out the list
>ok i forgot who I was at war with in the first place since they hardly ever attack me
>conquer 1 more city
>repeat
I like that there's no generic generals like Sengoku Rance, but that had a much better gameplay/event pacing. This feels like I'm reading book rather than playing a game at times. 
Pic related is events opened up from doing a single mission.

It's actually the opposite. It's been getting worse and worse as I progress. During Asia conquest you'd maybe get 1 event per city you conquered, and now that I'm in the Dark Realm every place I conquer gives like 5 new characters and 20 events for each character, half of which would've been useful early game but now idgaf about getting filler units like Charlemagne.

Nobody ever said Eiyuu Senki wouldn't be long-winded like most visual novels. I'd say it's similar in length to Sengoku Rance, and I've played both to 100% completion.

I do. It's something to talk about. I didn't know Eiyuu Senki was event heavy.
Create an Eiyuu Senki thread if you want to talk about Eiyuu Senki. Wait, no, you will flush other threads out if you do that, because imageboards are utter shit.

These people forgot who they were dealing with. As I said before, Spike Chunsoft is a cucked company that goes out of their way to censor their own games which is why I haven't bought any of their games as of late. People caught these flaws not even a day after it released. Who know what else they could have done? Good news is there's already a fansub in the works for the Steam version. They will now have an easier time adding the patch since it's native to PC now. So look forward to that.

>Aiyoku No Eustia – 100% Translated and edited and TLC almost done.
I'm looking forward to this one. The setting sounds pretty interesting.

<Five hundred years ago, angered by humanity's sins and arrogance, God recalled his Angels from Earth and and the surface was consumed by Chaos. The last person who still prayed to God, the first Saint Irene, asked for his forgiveness. God listened to her prayers and lifted the city and land around her to save humanity from extinction. As the last bastion of humanity, the city of Novus Aether floats in the sky above the inhospitable surface, powered by the daily prayers of the Saint. More than a decade ago, due to the interruption of the prayer, the "Gran Forte" occurred, causing part of the city to fall to the surface and splitting the lower city in two.

<In time, the lowest layer became the dwelling of all kinds of low-lives, people who lost much of their former lives during the "Gran Forte," becoming known as the "Prison." However, a contagious disease that causes people to grow wings has spread throughout the city. A special unit has been formed to deal with these people swiftly.

<In this "Prison" resides Caim Astraea, a freelance ex-assassin who does odd jobs for his friends for money, refusing jobs that require him to kill people. During one request, Caim finds a girl who contracts the wing-disease, enveloped in a light that reminds Caim of the "Gran Forte" years ago..

<When he was young, Kyoutarou wanted to read all the magic books in the world, but they were all in the magic library. Someone told him that to get there, he must be kind to everyone and bring happiness to their hearts. He received a bookmark, which was his entrance ticket to the magic library.

<One day while heading to school, he received a text from the ‘shepherd’ (hitsujikai) telling him that his fate was going to change. He had a vision of an accident at the tram station and helped prevent any injuries by calling away a nearby girl. That girl, Tsugumi, later came to the Library Club room, which he was a member of, to thank him and also to ask for his help to make Shiomi Academy more fun. It seemed that she had also received a text from the shepherd, who is rumoured to appear before people who try their best to grant their wishes. One by one, other students also join their group with the shepherd’s guidance.

Thanks! No, I don't think that's it. The reference was to an actually science-oriented work, apparently. The Manga Guides have one about the universe
(https://www.ohmsha.co.jp/book/9784274067372/ )
so maybe that's the one intended since it clearly discusses this important scientific topic.

Don't know, maybe I can get more information about it Anon, and I'll let you all know if I do. Cheers.

can't say I feel too bad about professional eroge market dying, it's been censored to shit anyway since 2004. Eromanga still goes strong, and that's what I actually use for fapping. There is doujin game market too, though 99.9% of that is utter garbage.

Will that circle eden fag ever make touhou kenchinroku 4, he stopped making games and only makes doujinshis ever since. I guess games just have a really bad effort to money ratio.

Have anyone here played giga's latest game, something about isekai robots? Cover art of it grabbed my attention for not making me want to vomit unlike most of the other shit out there. Movement was so much slower compared to baldr sky, which I guess in theory made positioning more important? I haven't really understood gameplay because I was too lazy to read japanese. Haven't finished demo yet.

Been playing harakami too, another game I put on my hard drive and forgot it exists. It's good. A good balance between instant gratification and slightly more slow burning romance, by which I mean it got both. I like how first choice in this game is "cum inside" and "try to not cum inside yet", and pretty much all other choices after that is "cum inside? yes/yes". Art is pretty good too. Honestly, it did eventually got a bit tiring launching eroge to fap, and somehow ending in a journey longer than life, I just wanted to fap damnit, you faggots should stop playing and talking about those boring 10 out of 10 novels and start playing actual eroge that are actually fappable.

<Some visual novel stats:
<China, HK & Taiwan account for 63.9% of revenue & 71.4% units sold for my latest release. The US accounts for 15.7% revenue & 9.5% units. Even with less revenue per sale the sheer numbers make China the most profitable market for localized Japanese VNs.

This is from the sales of certain visual novels like Island, Senran*Banko, and the Flowers series (rest in the pic)
Despite an ENG audience getting many translation over the years. Recently VNs have completely dwarfed the ENG market.
I think one reason for this is in China this kind of material was banned until a few years ago. That's why so many companies started appealing to China a few years ago.

What purpose do tags serve if not to help you avoid shit you don't like?
I don't know about you fuckers, but for me a single look on the cover image is usually enough to tell a shit game from a good one. Tags on the other hand only spoiler. I do use tags to find things that have loli sometimes, but that's it.

I probably shouldn't be here if I'm afraid of spoilers this much. Well, why do you think I don't read more active boards, huh? Because they actually talk about things.

Strange, how come a translation patch weigh so much to the point you need to make two separate roms to fit it in?
Reminds me of Tobal 2, whose excuse for not releasing in the West was the translation not fitting inside the disc.

Two questions about buying VNs:
<Do any of you participate in it?
<Where can you buy them from Japan directly (NOT through localizers/translators, been burned too many times with regular vidya)?
>>88508
I only bought a VN ONCE and that's because I couldn't find it on any torrent sites or even perfect dark. I got it in-box on Japanese amazon for a good price. I think you can buy from there directly without need for a VPN or a middle-man service, at least that's what I was able to do a few times with various objects (that I could trust). You may also want to try Surugu-ya though you'll definitely need a middle man for that site.
>>88508
I've bought a few VNs over the years. Something like Kindred Spirits or the new Aoi Shiro re-release I want to support because those are niche yuri VNs that absolutely need to make a profit to be viable. 
Other ones like Lucy the Eternity or Grisaia I also bought because I want to support the devs, which I know is rare but they put out a good product at a reasonable price, so it's a good transaction for me.

As for buying from Japan directly, there are sites like DMM where you can buy a digital edition directly from. I tried to buy Majikoi and Grisaia but they wouldn't let me due to region lock to keep the filthy gaijin out. 

There's a link to Ever17 on DMM but that's corrupt, making me think the VN is back to being abandonware again.

I'd actually try that. The X360 version as far as I know wasn't translated so if they changed the senario enough that it was received well, it might be worth re-releasing it on a modern system.

It'd have to be a pretty substantial rewrite, if that's the case.

I'm ready for some more yandere kitsune goodness. I just hope it's longer than the first game. The first game was a short VN about a yandere kitsune protecting the MC from the outside world for "reasons". Many /monster/ elements in the romance. Many didn't play it due to being stuck on console but you can emulate it perfectly now.

That's just the first chapter that's a decade old and ends on a huge cliffhanger. It disgusts me beyond belief that XSEED even charged money for it when the devs of the game haven't said anything about their game for 6 years straight.

There have been updates about that. Last one was posted july of last year saying "exactly. We are still trying to sell the overseas version on each site, so please be patientXC".
https://twitter.com/luneman_etc/status/1547041952792969217?s=20

Basically they're having a hard time finding a publisher that will translate and/or host the game. I'm assuming it's because best girl is a lolibaba and that's what is holding it back. Steam is definitely a no-go. I don't think Mangagamer or JAST do loli VNs and eroge. Itch.io hates loli, and I highly doubt GoG will allow it either. I don't know Johren's stance on loli games but if you're dealing with western payment processors then you basically have to be against loli. So that basically leaves DLsite as the platform but who will translate it?

For a modest sized site that’s not going to update any time soon, you could just install webhttrack, rip the whole site with its spider (just don’t forget to set load limits, FFS) and use the resulting local copy.
If you only want a help file with internal hyperlinks at low resource consumption, simple HTML and lightweight browser may be the best choice.
For slightly more fancy stuff and no resource worries, there’s TiddlyWiki - basically, all data is actually on one page parsed and presented in wiki style by JS.

Ok I finished it, super long but it is the best visual novel I have ever read. Excellent, brothers. Full Metal Daemon Muramasa truly is the peak of the visual novel medium. It would be hard to find something as good, if not better than this for a long time. To think the West took this long to have a full release of this masterpiece. It's fucked up for sure, just how I like it. One of the biggest plot lines is that the two characters in the OP, mother and adopted son, forced to have sex to have a female heir for the family. Her husband went to war and caught a shrapnel in his crotch, rendered him impotent to have a child. They drugged child MC and then proceed to have the widest sex with his mother.

I finished steins gate's true ending just the other day, I thought it was really good (though I must say tsukihime gripped me more than it). I started chaos;head today and while it seems interesting, I really do not like the main character. Okabe's chuuni shit was endearing at first but it started to get annoying and overdone after a while (but then it mostly went away when he realized that suddenly it wasn't a fucking game anymore - nice touch), I'm only on chapter 3 of chaos;head but I must say, I really hate the MC. It's not the character type that I dislike (I can relate to the vidya addicted hikki shut in as I have been one most of my life) it's just how much of an asshole he is and not in the funny way like Okabe was, along with his voice and manner of speaking. Is he like this the entire game?

Also, so far the characters are nowhere as likeable as the characters from steins;gate. So far I don't really understand why some people say it's better than steins;gate other than to be contrarian because steins gates is obviously much bigger and more liked

What technologies do you use to read VNs?
My PC has Linux so I use Wine for reading VNs but when a VN doesn't work on it I use a Windows 7 virtual machine, but the performance is somewhat mediocre. It would be good to have a dedicated computer running Windows 7 or XP or something. I do have a laptop running Windows 10, but it's for academic purposes, so I would prefer to not do things like reading VNs on that computer.

>(DP" is also in the works after many twists and turns, so please look forward to that as well.)
>Please look forward to more information about the expanding world!
So it's just simply that new game by the original team that MAGES has announced, however it's still about Corpse Party 2 and possibly the exact same hospital in which the Nirvana supposedly began leaking into the real world. Hopefully they learned something from the criticism of Blood Drive. Dead Patient is apparently still somehow in the works, but after so many years of complete silence I find that hard to believe. I guess my doubts might be washed away if the cast from DP will be featured in Darkness Distortion (or at the very least mentioned).

I don’t know why do you want their faces, but…
Something like Deepfreeze? A good idea, theoretically. Could be done even in a wiki farm + forum.
Risks (in the order of “things working out so far”) include: 
- all-out collapse into bitching over tastes and microscopic “issues” sperglords have stronk feelz about;
- being spammed to death by shills;
- being ruled by a gang of mean girl cronies who present an unified front of sperglord issues, but subsequently get corrupted (why do you think consumer-friendly review sites are not common, and gamejourno/hollywood is?);
- being frantically censored/deplatformed by the rabid tumblrinas
- the endgame prize: ultimate recognition! Being openly censored/deplatformed by immune system of the Cathedral. Up to and including some harlot bitching in UN. :]
If you don’t somehow manage to purge all the Goons early on, you are very unlikely to play the final level.

He never denies anyone who calls him female, but maybe that's just his ahoge kicking in. He does have a wife, and she even shows up in the game. Probably just a case of bishounen pandering on account of FSR being written by a woman (this is true). 
Yamato DID dress as a woman ONCE in his story just so he could fool some guys. But he never dressed feminine before or after that.

Fall into one of two catagories,
1. Gods the writers have an autistic fixation on and just put in the story whole cloth. (I.e Quetzalcoatl and the other Aztec gods Because they're a space virus that possess human hosts and yeah it's pretty autistic
or
2. A fate cameo but not really a cameo, see Ishtar is Rin, but she's not Rin and Parvati is Sakura, but not Sakura. But they still act like Rin and Sakura, but they're not. Except Zhuge Liang and Ainu goddess whoever the fuck are just Waver and Illya. In fact, the only bit of fan service they won't stoop to is giving Saber the spotlight because Mushroom man autistically insists "Artoria's story is over.", which is why he makes a billion different versions of her instead of just giving Saber more voice lines and screen time (seriously, she only has dialogue for Gilgamesh and Archer, not any of her knights, not Kiritsugu or Irisviel or any other servants or masters from Zero or Stay Night , not Mordred or Morgan, nothing

Not exactly Raikou, she's Ushi Gozen which is itself likened to Raikou but of course is also a separate entity, like how Skadi and Scathach were likened to one another in that one shitty book written by a female 40 years ago that got translated to Japanese and unfortunately is seen as the gospel over there and has infected the SMT franchise - and Fate by extension

Let's put this in perspective. You spend one hour every day reviewing old and new vocabulary. You do this consistently for a year. One hour every day for a year means that you have spent 365 hours learning and reviewing words. Do this for four years and you're spent nearly 1500 hours learning words and vocabularly. And that's JUST from studying for one hour every day.

Suppose we make it much more simply. You study 12 new "words" every day, with compounding review of older words. After a year, that's 4380 "words", which should give you a solid basis in the Japanese language as there's an average 1100-2000 individually Kanji that are regularly used. After four years, that's 17,508 "words", so you should be more than proficient by that point.

Don't focus on learning all of it at once, just take a step further every day and you'll be surprised how far you can go.

Finally, time for some quality horror. From what the steam reviews said, this one has side scrolling gameplay like Clocktower and the MC is more of his own character unlike the MC of the first game. Some people like and dislike the new changes. Either way, the reception is that it's good. Though it's $50 for a 20hr VN.

That was them, however not announcing that they have a VN under their belt that isn't translated doesn't mean they haven't started working on it. As they may just want to release it later. Still, it is a dick move.

Love the vid, fukken saved. I don't know if this is from a show or a game. Sauce?

I'm still not advocating for violence -unless they physically attack me first, it's considered self defense. Voting with your wallet is good but then there is the solution of fucking pirating everything.

I know second hand how much damage piracy can do to a whole company or even an industry.
I know this can fuck honest people making a living despite the fact that these honest people are not in charge of decisions to ruin VN translations.
And I know for a fact that trannies get triggered over gendered language so they resort to what they call non-binary language like "partner" instead of boyfriend or girlfriend.
Why do you think wokalizers publicly show off their "fixes" in twatter consistently?

These sort of activities are magically a litmus test to reveal if these retards do these actions as declarations that they are a part of that activist normalization group. If you study the language they use you'll certainly get new knowledge about certain words and certain patterns (diversity, inclusivity, etc...)
Remember, everything is political to them.

Rants aside, piracy will and should always be an option. Because if a company dedicated to translation doesn't provide accurate translations under the guise of "mah representation" then they are not playing fair. That's when we have a duty to bleed them dry.

That came out of nowhere. Shame they didn't rewrite the ero scenes to make them good. The Nutella version that fans provide bring back the R18 scenes every time. Some people like to pretend sex magic or sex in general isn't a part of Fate.

Right off the bat, these are both yellow label Saturn titles. They may say "18才以上" but this is closer to a Hollywood "R", meaning there can be violence, drug use, etc. but no explicit sex. Only games with red labels will have that.

That doesn't mean anything. For example, Steam Heart's is still quite explicit despite having the yellow rating. Then you have cases like Mortal Kombat 2 and Idol Janshi Suchie-Pai where the earlier release had a yellow rating, but the later releaes had a red rating.

From the JP wiki of Sega Saturn
<Yellow label. Recommended age: 18 years old and up
<Blue label. Recommended age MA-18. Only "Idol Janshi Suchie Pai Special" was applied in Japan.
<Red label. X designation 18 years old or older.
>In the early stages of the Sega Saturn's development, some genres of software were allowed to be sold with age restrictions, such as "18 prohibited" (commonly known as "X" designation) for reasons such as brutal violence and sexual descriptions.
>Although some consumers expected the porting of sexually explicit adult games (eroge) later on, the release of games classified as "X-designated" games was no longer permitted from around 1996.
>Since then, only "age-restricted (recommended age 18 or older, ie yellow label)" games have been allowed to be released in a manner that suppresses violence and sexual expression. 
If you want to see the difference between different versions of games I recommend to check out exhentai, sometimes they have screenshot dumps of different versions of the games. I didn't find a sega saturn version on exhentai but i did find a windows release and a PC98 release.

Looking further into this, here's another page that repeats much of the same, but adds a couple of details: https://archive.md/CAn7y
<SS's game software system is slightly different from today's game classification, the most special is the X designation (equivalent to today's CERO Z classification), which is very rare for home consoles, but the X designation does have some game content that exceeds the limits of home consoles, such as the degree of nudity, etc. However, this classification was canceled in '96 because of a certain incident, and was changed to the "18+ Prize" classification (equivalent to today's CERO D classification). However, due to an incident in 1996, this classification was canceled and replaced by the "18+ Promotion Award" classification system (equivalent to the current CERO D classification), and basically there has not been such a more open classification system for home consoles since then.
Which then led to further searching: 
<It was in the spring of 1996 that the "X-Designated" titles flourished. The "X" rating refers to the highest age group in Sega's original rating system, and refers to games for players 18 years of age and older. The Sega Saturn, which opened the door to games for adults, made it possible to port PC adult games, which had previously been considered impossible to port to home video game software.
<Elf, which was particularly popular on the PC at the time, entered the market and released "Nonomura Hospitals". Other adult-oriented games such as "Kyankyan Bunny Premiere" and "Bishojo Jakushi Suchie Pai II" were also released one after another.
<However, the hardware prices had come down, and the market was in a period of expansion for the light and younger age groups. As a result, the fact that adult games could be played made the Sega Saturn stand out from the crowd. As a result, in the fall, Sega made the painful decision to abolish the "X-designation" and restrict the adult-oriented genre.
But it looks like, despite the censorship, games having "Hard R" content still sold the console to Japan as "Romance games" didn't exist on the PS1: https://archive.md/0cdgy
<However, more present than them in the specialized magazines were the adult adventure games "EVE burst error" and "Lower Class". With the abolition of the "X" rating last fall, the sexual elements were greatly reduced, but these titles attracted attention because they were games that tended not to be released on PlayStation in any case.
<Both games had interesting scenarios, and "EVE" in particular was so well received that it was ranked number one in the final readers' popularity ranking, which was a specialty of the specialized magazine "Sega Saturn Magazine.
<In addition, romance games featuring beautiful girls, but without sexual elements, also stood out on the Sega Saturn. In particular, "Sentimental Graffiti: First Window," released in a limited edition of 30,000 copies, was a big hit despite the fact that it was a preview disc that was neither an original nor a port. It may have been a monumental game title in which the media mix approach of promoting a single attractive character design was a commercial success.
The article further details that the Saturn last ALL it's momentum after the PS1 release of Final Fantasy. So it sort of makes me wonder if they really "gained" anything killing the immediately popular eroge genre of games in favor of aiming for kids.

Never 7 was also released. There's grammer errors in the first sentence and the videos have been horribly upscaled with AI:

>Aquaplus President and Key Co-Founder Justify Censorship as Vital for Global Market Reach and Revenue
https://archive.fo/lTizR
<“With the Japanese market shrinking, Steam’s massive global player base is crucial,” Shimokawa explained. He pointed out that Japan’s once-strong visual novel market is in decline, forcing companies like Aquaplus and Key to sanitize themselves for international sales.
<Shimokawa remains defiant in principle, even if reality demands compromise. When discussing the ToHeart remake, he made it clear that the core emotion “the bittersweetness of youth” was more important than following trends like making protagonists more mild-mannered. “If we made them milder, it wouldn’t be ToHeart,” he argued, drawing inspiration from Steven Spielberg’s regret over editing E.T.
<To make matters worse, Nintendo of America has begun systematically blocking Japanese titles from the Switch simply for containing suggestive imagery, whether it’s a bath scene, implying nudity or even a simple kiss.

>I guess Catholic priest, acting as a sex therapist for students of an all-girl school? How more ridiculous can it get? And him being the same age as them and yet being anointed as a priest despite still being a teen?
Well, at least he is not having sex with those girls, that would be very sinful.

Is there anything special about that title, or is that like batteries for you, interchangeable and forgettable?

I'll tell you when I read more but it has many positive reviews. Basically just a quality moege. You know what you're coming for and it provides that with flying colors.

JAST USA was just kicked out of an anime convention in Texas this weekend
https://archive.ph/u2URf
>After a very successful Friday, we were banned from the San Japan convention in San Antonio, Texas this weekend. Our content is too provocative for the powerful of the Lone Star State, ahead of the anti-anime bill SB20 going into effect on Monday.
>...
>The law wasn't involved. No arrests, charges, prosecutions, trials, or convictions. Honestly I'll be surprised if anyone ever gets charged under this law. Its power is in this sort of private and self-censorship, not actually having cops arrest people for anime.

No, this VN fixes her personality.
>The player finds himself alone with Dejiko in a forest, and she's lost her memory. In this game, players are given a very different view of Dejiko, as the amnesia makes her innocent and shy.
