Let's go, summer release!

Best thread of the week, etc.

Get ready for a shit storm in /jp/ on monday. We are gonna get invaded by moralfags, /a/, /v/ and the like..

I, for one, am quite excited for demonbane and am looking forward to enjoying it.

>>7290870
>doki
ffffff-

>>7290870
You must have missed all the retardedness last thread. They don't have a translator, but they've successfully hacked the engine... which was hacked years ago. That's the extent of their progress. A redundant project without a translator is not going fucking anywhere.

So does demobane have routes, is it more action or does it have romance? I know next to nothing about it but that the mech in it is suppose to be more powerful than god.

>>7290934
Two? Demonbane and?

>>7291149
You're awfully optimistic

>>7291084
>Isn't this a troll project?

The staff are trolls.

The project is real for the most part.

The Muramasa translated started almost a year ago and isn't even at the half-way point yet(barely at the 1/3 mark even), you got a while to go. late 2012 actually is optimistic.

>>7291200

Yeah, no. The translator said he doesn't want to deal with the Demonbane shit (since he translated a lot of that too) so he's just going to release it when it's done.

>>7291113
DraKoi.

>>7291111

It have 3 routes ... Al, Metraton and ... err .. Ruri?
Well that is what I recall from the old TL Wiki ... wait a second, lets see if the flowchart is still there ...

Right ... Al, Metraton and Ruri.

It seems it starts to split in chapter 7 with chapter 8 to 15(end) differing depending on what route you are as each have their own variant with some crosslinks.

>Seinarukana - Prologue, Chapter, 1 and Chapter 4 translated, translation at 27.36%, image editing mostly complete, chapter 2 translation almost complete

My faith never wavered when the original TL disappeared.

>>7291111
It's more of an action and comedy mesh together changing pretty abruptly between the moods. Romance isn't prominent really though I do like Al and Ruri (mainly for her staff).

I kept telling you they would deliver and they did, JastUSA is a great company that is going to bring us more great tittles in the future. Demonbane is only the start.

>>7292060
Get out JAST devs

>>7292060
Aren't they releasing Demonbane almost a year late?

>>7291997
>http://www.jastusa.com/demonbane-to-ship-the-week-of-may-2nd
I can't believe I never bothered to check their news section until now. Thank you so much, anonymous! They wouldn't answer my inquiries to cancel my pre-order through the normal help page.

>>7292073
Once the ball gets rolling other Nitro+ titles will get localized and released.
A few years is a small price to pay when you consider that the english eroge market will most likely be furthered. Demonbane being successful = everyone wins.

gah anyone know the new address for K1? or is it down again? i fail to subscribe the thread there that gives out notice whenever they change address

>>7292081
I cant wait to pirate the fuck out of it.
Going to be seeding at 10mbps for weeks aswell.

>we’ll be starting to process preorders on Monday, May 2nd
You notice it says they will start processing and not start shipping? Processing can take awhile...

>>7292094
http://meido.dip.jp/k1/ was the last one that i browse.. maybe around a week ago, so if this is down then i dont know

Uh, it just has an update a month ago

>>7294990
Because it won't have any news or some shit like this, it changes once the guy translated another chapter every few months.

>>7295059
About e17's length, script-wise.

>>7294990
Muramasa has actually been translated quite fast.

>>7295059
Really long. He should have started on the characters routes (routes branch off after Chapter 5).

I actually did plan on pre-ordering Demonbane, but with all the delays and all I kept putting it off.

Muramasa took me about 65 hours to read.
And I'm a fast reader.
So yeah it's pretty long

Picture a game of Clannad length, except the language is much more complicated and it's only one person working on it.

Yeah, it's a long project

Going by this
http://tlwiki.tsukuru.info/index.php?title=VN/Eroge_Script_sizes
Both line count and mbs of text reflect that.

>>7295114
I read them carefully and reread some of my favorite scenes several times.
I'm a fast reader

>>7295152
It isn't, reason 3 out of 5 of the most unique kanji works there are raiL-soft.
Though albatross was more overkill in my opinion, even if it was a lot shorter.

>>7295158
He isn't.
A kid can use a dictionary and use the most complicated synonym for every word and it'll still be simple.

>>7295183
>Albatross will seriously make you want to bang your head sometimes.
I did, a few times, then proceeded to sing the spanish lyrics of the OP.

>>7295217
Uh... what they're saying is very simple and correct. What's so hard to follow about it?

Granted, the amount of unique kanji in a game doesn't necessarily reflect how often kanji is used over hiragana, so it doesn't necessarily work as an indicator like that, but I guess it's a safe bet that if a game does use a lot of unique kanji, it's probably more apt to use kanji over hiragana.

A notable exception would be Muv Luv Alternative, which doesn't have a very impressive unique kanji count, but uses kanji over hiragana for even the most simple words very often. That's a good example of a compressed script that's probably longer than the numbers imply

You can't never do an appropiate linecount of Forest.

>>7295135
I could have sworn I remember F/SN's script size being like 4.15ish MB on that page a year or so ago.

This is one of those parts I perfectly understood .

>>7295351
Alternative was extremely long for it's script length.
I'd say it took me as long to read it as it took to read all of F/SN.
Where as say, E17 I read in about 22 or so hours.

>>7295183
>France Shoujo
Oh my. That reminded me of Asceai and that Amaterasu poll. This was the game that had 100+ H-scenes, right?

It's May 2nd, where's Demonbane?

>>7297494
>Processing
Not shipping.

It could still be a long time brother.

>>7297519
They're not going to offer the download version as soon as they start processing orders?

>>7297526
That i would not know as i have never bothered to look at the Jast webpage.

>>7297526
Are their downloads available to Europeans? If so I might actually buy this one.

I wouldn't want to read it unedited if it was anything like that sentence.

>>7291672
Said the mediocre derp who likes disney and Liar shit stuff.

>Learn to troll!

>>7297864

true or troll?

>>7299209
I am willing to bet troll. It only got released on PC what, 4-6 months ago? And this is the first mention of it being translated, as far as I know.

>>7299223
Wow looks like we've got a regular detective around here.

>>7297864
tnks bro u are so real i shat dereks

>>7299235
Maybe that's the project that Ixrec has been working on that he's been hiding from everyone all this time.

>>7295351
Pretty sure it's counting every line in the game. And it's counting line count for both of say, Tsugumi and Sora's. So it's really the 15 or so hours of Tsugumi's route + the 15 or so hours of Sora's + the 15 or so hours of You's route + the 15 or so hours of Sara's route + the 20 or so hours of the True route.

Torrent where for demonbane?

>>Seinarukana - Prologue, Chapter, 1 and Chapter 4 translated, translation at 27.36%, image editing mostly complete, chapter 2 translation almost complete

Oh god oh god oh god.

>>7299539
I don't think it counts shared lines multiple times, if that's what you're talking about.

>>7299223
But it has been 8 months already

So is Demonbane gonna be downloadable?

And is there a way to figure out if I pre-ordered it? I think I might've, but that would've been a long time ago...

>>7299883
You'll find out when your credit card gets charged.

Do you think JastUSA just charged credit cards with the pre-orders and then made off like bandits? It is already May 3rd and no one has said shit.

>>7300013
My card hasn't been charged yet

>>7300032
So why are they delaying it again this time? The mail excuse is the last straw, I believed, oh yes I believed in them until they told us that. I don't even understand why they are delaying even more. Is it because Nitro+ shenanigans?

>>7290504
>Demonbane- Shipping on Monday
i still hope that if we buy shitloads of demonbane copies Jast will hire more translators and do shit faster.
please sell well, Demonbane-chan!

>>7300596
Get out Payne, you're an incompetent fool.

>>7300436
they like trolling.

i believe it's still gonna be out this week, i mean, seriously Jast, you have the game ready and shit.

>>7300607

Got my email this evening. Game is paid for and ready to ship.

>>7300605
He is right, if we open this gate with our purchasing power we will be treated to a flood of Nitro+ tittles.

I cancelled my pre-order because I'm worried about getting in trouble ;_;

>In any case, things are going slowly but smoothly, that's why we can't tell you an exact date for the first patch for ep8.
Wait, doesn't 'smoothly' imply a constant progress? If the project moves smoothly, wouldn't that be a reason why you CAN give a release date?

Thanks for preordering the upcoming Cthulhu mythos visual novel Demonbane, and for being so patient while we got the game ready. We wanted to clarify one point: we have started “pre-processing” the orders for the game, but it has not actually begun shipping yet. Since we have so many preorders, we’ve learned that it’s faster to prepare the postage etc. on the envelopes ahead of time to avoid delays getting the game out when it arrives at our San Diego office. We expect the game to ship next week, and we’ll make sure to rush it out to you as quickly as we can.

Thanks again for your support, and we’ll get this awesome game title out to you very soon!

I'd love me some Atlach Nacha. The settings sounded strangely appealing to me, and now I can't get it out of my mind.
When.. ?

>>7314857
So when they said they started processing orders they meant they only started pre-processing orders and by that they mean they only started stamping the envelopes. I don't know, that seems a little dishonest to me.

>>7314906
Well at least the game should be out by summer, like they originally promised.
