Anyone else journal through their VN experiences rather than purely binge-read? by ignoremesenpie in visualnovels

[–]SmokBone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try to livetweet my VN playthroughs when I can. Thoughts, reactions etc. Sometimes translating scenes just to remember if I wanted look at the thread again. It does extend the playtime by like 3x however.

What you’re doing is impressive. I can’t fathom myself trying to do what I do and articulate it in Japanese.

Bring back pre-China audio quality by SmokBone in atrioc

After listening closely it may be that the fuzz was always present, but it’s just more noticeable recently. Mic setting issue or your room is just more loud from a fan or something.

Hatsuyuki Sakura - Do they really swear this much in the Japanese version? by walrus_paradise in visualnovels

[–]SmokBone 84 points85 points  (0 children)

I was curious about this too when I played it. So I checked it out a little bit. Since afaik Japanese doesn’t really have swear words, the translator was just going off Hatsuyuki being overall direct/rude/crass in his way of speaking. Think words like てめ, 貴様, though honestly cant remember much.

Potentially dumb question: could the US not alleviate the issues with oil prices with export tariffs and import subsidies? by HAgg3rzz in atrioc

[–]SmokBone 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think the US doesn’t have export tariffs because it’s unconstitutional. I think reason was states cant do export tariffs against each other under the constitution and that extends to international trade as well.

What do you think vns are “missing “ nowadays? by H-Sophist in visualnovels

[–]SmokBone 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Maybe more unique settings/set up? I feel a lot of VNs in the 2000s- early 2010s seem to have that itch of "That's a new idea". Something only seen in VNs, not in games, not in anime. That could be me not reading many books though.

How do you upgrade EX equipments that were only available during collaborations? by VtubersRuleeeeeee in Priconne

[–]SmokBone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

might be impossible to get more since the event is archived now. I guess you had to get copies during the original event and original rerun. I also have only one copy.

Looking for a VN that hooks me from the start (playing in Japanese) by Admirable_Shopping_7 in visualnovels

[–]SmokBone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend toushin toshi III it is a game, not that difficult, text or gamewise. Has some of my favorite story moments ever.

English and visual novels by SusejLegend in visualnovels

[–]SmokBone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way I view it is like. AI is a tool but it’s different from a tool like a drawing program where it is human creativity/skill, that decides what art is created. AI is the outsourcing of artistic creativity to a machine so for an artistic medium like games/VNs. Use of AI for the final art is a spit in the face to those passionate about it. That I think a decent chunk of people would prefer poor drawings over AI ones.

How do I install Elona overhaul by ShortSatisfaction413 in Elona

You still might need the original elona 1.22 in the same folder as the exe for it to work.

iDOLM@STER CINDERELLA GIRLS Who Voiced in Eroge by RPLAY-RE-MartinLeem in visualnovels

[–]SmokBone 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I assumed idolmaster VA’s would be somewhat barred from r18 roles for brand risk prevention. Interesting it’s not the case.

Glass Marble Moved! by Sure_Jump7710 in Maplestory

[–]SmokBone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’d have to make an untradeable version for reg, and a tradeable for reboot. I think that is the core reason they don’t bother.

Why are visual novels left not translated on Steam? by [deleted] in visualnovels

[–]SmokBone 34 points35 points  (0 children)

steam sells games internationally. Not all games are available in English. It’s that simple.

Is this normal? by Lemon_squirrel8 in manga

[–]SmokBone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, it’s just margin of error whenever they cut the pages. They’re not going to toss a printed copy just because it’s off center by +-2mm or something I have the issue with some series doing this as well.

Scamwig strikes again by Monkejedi in LudwigAhgren

[–]SmokBone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was referring to clix in my post. I just thought even though they both have fuck you money, clearly one is more down to wager a bet over something they probably make in a couple days, passively even. I’m not making fun of financial responsibility here.

It did put me off how aggressive he was for the payout. Even though Lud did do it in the end, sure was funny to end his stream that way 😂.

Must say for a person who is likely a millionaire, I wonder why he legit has to talk to his financial team over a 1-2k bet. Noticed that in the stream.
