[H-VN][Partial English] Dracu-Riot!

[Ideon]

Yeah, the Rio and Nicola versions of that scene start off the same. If Rio stops at just bandaging your hand you're golden.

Also so far I think Rio had the most hilarious version of that scene, although Azusa's was worth some laughs too.

[Darkbalmunk]

I'm partially fluent in japanese there are a few kanji I dont understand and have to look back and forth to translate and its all a big time consumption, reading english was easier, and reading japanese may take me three times the effort but still hey I want my Nicola since she is mainly the reason I wanted to play besides Rio since they remind me so much of the cliche routes.

[Seipher]

Has anyone tested if the 2.0 patch covers 3/4 heroines or just Erinas?

[CFreak]

According to the comments on 4chan it's just Elina. The notice that it's all the heroines except Miu in the VN tracking post is wrong.

[Seipher]

Ah, well atleast the common route is done i guess. I read into it more and people are bashing him like crazy, its kinda freaky how many people are mad over what he did.

[CFreak]

Yeah, some severe entitlement issues going on there. Not exactly unique to VN fans of course, but it's kind of disheartening all the same seeing how ungrateful people are. I mean, I want the whole thing as much as the next guy, but since I'm too lazy to properly study Japanese on my own I can't exactly complain about someone else not going out of their way to provide me with even more free translations.

Sigh, I really should resume studying Japanese, but Kanji just make my eyes glaze over...

[Ideon]

I think a lot of the drama is thanks to how Insem's handled it. Back in June he posted a status update saying he'd originally planned on putting the whole game out on 9/9, but thanks to RL delays he'd put out what he had on 9/9 and definitely would finish by the end of the year. As of that post he'd done Elina, Rio, Azusa, and was starting up on Nicola.

Then he announces that he's quitting the day before the patch was due out, and on patch day we get just Elina's route (which was the same as the patch that went out on Valentine's to like 3 contest winners), and the news that we might get the other routes put out if no one else feels like picking up the project and Insem can't get back into it by the end of the year, which basically means the project is dead.

I know the guy's got his priorities and all, but after watching, say, Rogue do MGQ (who went into the last part of the series outright stating this was his last translation and despite RL devouring his time is so far keeping his word to finish the game when he can), it's hard to not feel at least at little annoyed.

[Geckoey Lurker]

Pretty sure most of the frustration is mostly from the patch only containing Elina's route than Insem dropping the ball, things would probably be going considerably smoother if he had released everything that was done up to this point.

Also, compared to Rogue, Insem never seemed to be as motivated, it looked more like a way for him to try and brush-up his Japanese, and as far as I have seen, most translators get shitted on quite a lot, just even more so when they can't keep their promises. People just take free stuff like this for granted, and I'm pretty sure most people don't even consider all the effort and time it takes to translate a single heroine's route, much less a single VN.

However, as sad as this may be, projects being dropped, even at the last minute, isn't a rare occurance. Dracu-Riot! just happened to have a lot more of light on it than all the other ones that dies-off in the shadow. Hell, I'd have to say kudos to the people who continues after completely translating even a single VN since they should know how tedious it is.

[CFreak]

Oh, I certainly understand that people feel like they're being strung along. I just can't understand getting so worked up over it, since this kind of thing hardly surprises me anymore. I don't know why he chose to handle it the way he did, a personality quirk maybe? It certainly takes a special kind of personality to put that much work into translating VNs for free.

For some reason I have an impression of most VN translators being a bit like that... weird personalities with a talent for riling people up. Or maybe that's just moogy or whatever his name was. Not that it takes a special talent to make people on the internet angry...

Anyone else have the link?

[Geckoey Lurker]

Noticed that isn't a first. Just wondering what's wrong?
Can you not access the links, are you just confused as to which you need to click, or can you really not "see" them?
Or does the torrent simply have no-one seeding? Either way...
