I had no idea a KnS 3 was in the works. Is it a continuation of 2 or entirely new?

>>14290381 The posts by what is clearly the OP of that thread are so deluded that there is no way it's not just a Sekai Project dude trying to get away with advertising the kickstarter because he thinks /a/ is dumb enough to fall for it. This is another reason why this site would benefit from IDs, it would reveal that half the posts in this thread are just the OP pretending to be an innocent skeptic. But he fucked himself over by advertising on /a/ in the first place, nobody on that board likes that. Hell, they don't like long posts period. They're basically the same people from this board, so they're not as dumb as you think. Hopefully it doesn't take long for a mod to slam that thread.

I dunno if that'll work. About 90k seems to be maximum for games without name recognition.

http://prefundia.com/projects/view/libra-of-the-vampire-princess-bishoujo-game-english-version/6962/ Also if their funding chart really is true, and their estimate for translation time is also true, then it looks like a multiple translator project. While /jp/ is usually against such things, I'm of the opinion that it can be done well (koihime, for example, was a two-person translation job). I just hope they hire a good editor.

So what actually happened with SubaHibi? Was it really just a troll?
Anonymous
>>14290721 Damn. I was looking forward to that one. Maybe if enough people tell them their goal is too high, then they might lower it like Sekai did with Narcissu. Nothing short of kamige earn that much on KS. It looks like some Japanese developers look at the most successful campaigns and think their vn can make just as much.
Anonymous
>>14290724 Yes, unfortunately. I don't know why people keep letting Herkz fool them, he has been doing this shit for YEARS now. I guess people just really wanted Subahibi so they were all too willing to believe in an unfinished patch.
Anonymous
>>14290721 >>14290740 I mean, this is a huge game, so I can kind of understand them going a bit high in this case (plus it's actually kickstarting a translation project and not making people pay for an existing fan translation...). But yeah, I don't think that goal is gonna work. Glad they did a Prefundia instead of going right into the Kickstarter, so that they can fix their mistake before it's too late.

>>14290749 Wow, we got epically trolled by a translation project that released a 75% partial patch of decent quality. They really went through a lot of effort to troll us there.

>>14290783 Well Dracu-Riot released a partial and then basically died until Insem basically came out and said he had dropped it. Ok it wasn't exactly quality, but it shows it does happen.
Anonymous
>>14290783 To be fair they did not actually release that particular partial and it was just leaked by DxS.
But yeah, this really is exactly how Herkz would troll. See, if the translation actually makes it reasonably far before they drop it entirely, that's arguably more painful than if it didn't make it anywhere at all. Their intention was probably to lord the unfinished translation over everyone's heads but never actually release anything more than the very first partial.

>>14290819 This is true too. Insem did not translate a single of the game past that partial. People fucking love trolling with partials.

>>14290779 In order for Libra to have any chance of success at its current goal, they're going to have to get plenty of press coverage and start spreading by word of mouth. Putting emphasis on the size of the vn is important, so that people know why it's going to cost so much.

>>14290824 They sure have free time to translate 70% of game only to drop it after for trolling.

>>14290668 I genuinely like that they have very natural hair color/looks in general, but you must agree that many IG girls look similar.
If you disagree, perhaps you can answer the spoilered question.

Can someone sum up what this conversation is about? Google Translate and what I know of the language more or less gives me an idea but I want to make sure.

>>14290721 It'll be a decent test of the market. The chuuni elements should be popular with normalfags and being all-ages means it should get picked by games media. 170k is a very reasonable amount if the game really is 2.5 million characters. Blonde loli vampires are a fetish of mine; I'll back it as long as we're guaranteed an adult version.

Whatever metric they are using is not the same metric that sane people use when measuring script sizes. Some trashy little Android fetish moege from a studio that always makes short moege, spat out in a year, is not going to be multiple times longer than some of the longest VNs in existence.

Does MG send out any copies of KnS2 for review or for people to write previews for on news websites? Seems like there's very little publicity or hype for its release anywhere outside of the usual VN sites.
Meanwhile, SP gets at least some coverage and reviews for their new releases.
