I chose to play Winter. After she met Gardenia in Sansara there was a choice between episode 2 or 1, but whatever I choose I'm taken back to that choice. Is it because there's no content yet for the female protagonist?
This is the very first update with Winter, no content yet

I can't even... that Engrish is so fuckin' bad. Not to mention that most of the conversations are completely random and disjointed.
In the next update I'll put in the new Native Speaker-proofreaded files, it'll be awesome!

Tried it. Not my cup of tea.
Cons:
-Story is pretty much torn apart.
-Scenes changing in a midway (example, two characters fighting, BAM!, new scene and new characters introduced.). After encountering it second time, i had enough.
-Dialogs are terrible. Making me hold ctrl, but i forced myself to read a Prologue. But after that? No thanks.
Good luck with project. Hope it will get better.

The english in this is terrible.
I couldnt even get past the intro before dropping this like hot garbage.

English isn't that hard to learn its also a pretty universal language, which means its extremely useful.
Or if youre lazy you can just pay someone else to correct your spelling.

Spoken like a native speaker.
Although it is a widely used language, English is one of the most convoluted languages to learn for a non-native speaker. No consistency with our grammar, spelling & pronunciation that don't always match, and 1,000's of slang terms that don't mean the same thing from one part of the country to another....Hell; even native speakers don't always know what other native speakers are friggin' talking about. For example; if you are from the US, do NOT order the pudding at a restaurant in London.
English sucks to learn.

English is my third language not my native one, so dont go putting labels.
If one can't afford learning english, then fine i apologise.
but If someone is too lazy to put effort into learning it properly then that person should be prepared to be criticised.

But yes, youre right grammar and such is different depending on different countries, however learning proper english grammar is all part of learning the english language so thats not an excuse.

Also for that part about someone from the US not ordering a pudding in london, i think thats more about the difficulties in understanding accents rather than grammar.

Thank you. I apologise for coming off as brash and insulting. it just gets on my nerves when i see incorrect english... Call it an OCD if you will...:LOL:
It's okay, I don't have time to learn English and I won't be able to learn it so that I can write English dialogues in person.

I will just point out here that you should reread the particular sentence I've quoted above and then carefully examine your last several posts. Your English is good . . . but still riddled with errors (capitalization mistakes and punctuation failures, for instance). I'm not trying to be overly critical, but if you're going to be harsh with someone struggling you should be equally harsh with yourself. Constructive criticism is good; trashing someone who's not at your level is unhelpful.

I know i make errors. That's because im too lazy to properly put the correct punctuation and capitalizations. Its not like im currently writing an essay or something that requires me to be strict with my grammar, capitalization or punctuation.

Im just writing a comment in a thread on a porn game piracy website.

It's good that you aren't afraid of criticising others tho.

Also im not thrashing anyone, The dev wants to make money on this game/VN. i just gave a useful tip that will help draw in potential patrons to give him money, since i doubt many people would want to support a game riddled with english mistakes.

Actually it is because generally American puddings are British custards, while our cookies are Brit biscuits...except when they actually are Brit cookies....and our biscuits are Brit scones. I have no idea if American scones even have a British equivalent....but I digress.
The first time an American orders a pudding, and gets a sausage or a steamed cake flavored with beef fat, they are going to lose their mind.

There is an interesting story about the English language. When I first started making the game, I was helped by a friend who has been studying English for 15 years. He is a linguist, he translated all the lines completely by hand, I was very happy. In the end no one here liked this translation xD Since then I gave up any hope of learning English to create dialogues for the game, only to communicate

I'm not surprised and that is probably a good idea.
All jokes aside; the language is convoluted, and the dialects change by region. With the amount of countries that do use English, that adds up to a massive amount of variances very quickly.
Even here in the US where I was born and raised, the differences between the North-Eastern & Southern dialects are massive. There are times they are almost like they are different languages. Start adding versions used in other countries and it is mind-numbing.
