Thats why it will work on EN version rather than original JP, to encourage people to buy official translation and use patch with it. Its just a message to them that we want full experience and are not happy with such severe censorship and subpar TL.

Alright, since it's decided that this is the primary reason why the patch is for EN version; I'm inclined to believe that they would be spared from getting C&D at the very least if MoeNovel has just a little tiny bit of common sense. (Except Aaeru is clinically insane and a factor too, so he should just stfu)

 

However, I don't think people would "buy" MoeNovel crappy official version and "support" the company motivated by all-ages censorship just because there's a fix patch out there.

 

 

On an unrelated note:

>I feel like there’s a boundary that should always separate entertainment and pornography. No great works of literature ever had to stoop to pornographic exposure of their characters to make their stories work; that can severely damage the artistic integrity of your story.

>But I can’t empathise with people who throw so much hate at this company for all the good they could accomplish for the industry. The people who propagate this aggression really come across as elitist perverts trying to justify their lust for anime girls.

 

 

Good article from @Aspirety regarding @moenovel "Is This Really Okay? ~ Concerns of a Visual Novel Gamer" i 100% agree

 

Yep, he 100% agrees that all these people are just an elitist perverts trying to justify their lust for anime girls and that's why he will bring back the h-scene into the game. Pure logic. *facepalm*

This is my reason I will still not buy the VN, even if the patch is released. I will not support a company that uses the communities effort to fix the VN they released. I will not support a company that would actually profit off a VN that they created so many problems releasing, because they allowed the community to fix their problem just for those sales. It would set a precedent that they could get away with releasing more VNs just like their first one, because hey, the community will fix it and those people that had problems with it will buy it because of that. They would not have learned the lesson we would want them to learn: Don't treat us like third-rate customers. They would instead learn that they can release the VN however they want and the community will fix it, but they will still profit from it.

I read this, and it started out ok... and then it went off the rails near the end. Moreover, he's missing the point. Yes H scenes were removed (which is enough to anger some people), but the story was 'adapted' to match this crappy censored version of the game. The editing quality was horrific to boot, suggesting either incompetence or sheer laziness. I suppose there was the possibility that Aaeru was trying to get a bit of rapport with moenovel by showing he actually supports them, ergo making his project less likely to be C&Ded, but the chances of aaeru actually thinking this far ahead is makes this scenario particularly unlikely.

 

And no, I don't get tired of Moenovel bashing.

Can you give us a hint about what we might see from you in the future?

 

For titles released in the future, it is likely we will work closely with Pulltop again.

 

A new interview with Fujisan from MoeNovel: [link]

 

I love how he mentioned "13-year-old girl in the UK" this time.

He kept mentioning underage girls in every interview instead of boys. It makes me wonder if he's a lolicon at heart....Kukuku~~ (Miyako's laugh) :rolleyes:

That really explains why they're making an all-ages version... So that all his lolis can play the game :p

Looks like he's just picking the interviewers/site doing the interview country and tossing some number close to the teen rating the game has (the other interview was on a french site if i recall correctly). And about the girls when the game is clearly aimed at male audience... well your guess is as good as mine.

I'm thankful to moenovel. Them being so unbelievably terrible has been the final push, to give me enough motivation to get off my arse and start learning Japanese properly.

 

also 13 year old girls are huge pervs, so his logic is dumb in multiple ways

I kinda get that he wants visual novels to be a more widespread thing in the west and that sex isn't always something that helps gets sales at least from a bigger margin but again and so many times why didn't they just choose something that was already all ages.

Bad planning , thats why.

 

Less is more. And they did too much when it was really unneeded.

 

In anycase , kuroneko has a message to this thread because she thinks this has gone far enough (and i happen to agree) :

He's just mentioning them to draw attention away from his beloved underaged boys.

All this talk of targeting teen girls is delusional. They're actually targeting the moral majority. And they know it (I hope). But "we want people of all ages to play our games" sounds much better than "we want people that stigmatize creepy Japanese porn to play our games". Their overzealous censorship can be likened to a homosexual denying his inclination--simply toning it down won't cut it, as there's still the lingering fear of being ostracized.
