Sharin no Kuni - Because it was the game which convinced me to start my visual novel journey.

MoeNovel is translating an awesome game but people are complaining about it because there won't be any sex scenes? What is this shit? Be happy that there will be a translation in the first place.

It's still better to get a schnitzel without french fries than getting no schnitzel. And no, I don't want to start a discussion about the importance of sex scenes and the like. This always depends on how they removed the sex scenes. It'll be "rather easy" if they just inserted something that forces the game to skips those scenes but if they literally deleted them then it'll take some more time because you would have to extract those scenes from the original game, repack them and so on.

No ero? But that's the only reason why I'm playing visual novels!!! [/sarcasm]

The quality of the translation seems acceptable. Oh and Desi, WHEELCHAIR!!!

Desi ... wheelchair!!! Edit: Also, that page looks amazing! Edit2: Ah shit, Desi already posted a comment because I forgot to post mine after writing it 30min ago...stupid me. Edit3: Desi got his wheelchair translation project...so where is my Tayutama translation?!

I'm not done with Higurashi and I didn't read all of Umineko's episodes either but I would say the main difference is the atmosphere. Both visual novels focus on the human psyche but Umineko concentrate more on magic and surreal stuff while Higurashi tries to tell a "real" story. I can't say which title is better because I didn't finish both games but Umineko has an awesome soundtrack and a more interesting (fucked up) story than Higurashi.

Animated Visual Novels are extremly rare and School Days is the only translated one which means that you're fucked...unless you're learing japanese then you can check out this huge amount of games. On another note, play Sharin no Kuni! Strongly recommended by Desi~

I'll just quote myself because of obvious reasons. Wow, quoting yourself feels amazing.

This game reminds me of Demonbane...which wasn't great.

Well at least someone read it

What's up with that senseless discussion/flamewar anyway? 1. Selling translations/patches/mods is obviously illegal because all of them are using/manipulating original files of the game. 2. To demand/ask for money for the duration until the translation is finished is a totally different thing because contributors are officially paying for the hours of work of the translator(s) and not for the translation itself. Although some people also see this as an illegal action (like kickstarter, apparently). 3. Either way, we'll all download the patch for free, be it legal or not. Ivan has b

To shatter people's hope after letting them think that they'll finish the translation.

True. The routes of the sisters were surprisingly good.

Well, yes.

1.set locale to japanese [spoiler=xp] [spoiler=windows vista/7] 2.download all parts from this site (like for example all 12 parts of Download english hentai games - ef - a fairy tale of the two) 3.open the first part with winrar or 7zip 4.extract everything into a folder 5.mount the image (usually .iso or .mds file) with daemon tools lite or virtual clone drive 6.install the game (in japanese) 7.download (if necessary) and install the english patch 8.play the game Edit: Here's another guide for changing your system locale

As expected.

Or Tayutama!!! \o/ again, nope

Does this mean that you won't play visual novels anymore when you turned 30? I'm shocked. Each month around 15% progress? Holy macaroni...

Source please.

And the project already reached 2500$ with 55 backers which means that each of them donated around 50$ for that translation. That's what I fear.

Well ... if they are paying the travelling costs then ...
