VN Others Completed The Princess, the Stray Cat, and Matters of the Heart 2 [Final] [TOKYOTOON]

[Sin-xix]

Another game to add to the go woke, get broke master list.
This game is like a burger without the actual fucking meat inside.
Which is a shame too since the art style looks amazing.
Whoever cried to get this game butchered, I hope they're even more miserable because only a truly sad sack would feel threatened/offended by fictional characters in a fictional world.

While i agree about kinetic novels suck. Visual novels with porn/hentai in the form of static cgs like these just dont cut it for me anymore. Since i cant fap to them, i actually play them for the story and dont really care if the porn is there or not.
So do i need to play the prequel if i only care about the new heroine introduced in this sequel?

personally for me its not actually about the porn, i just dislike when they butchered / removed something from a game just for the sake of it. IF the original version was released 17+ (no sexual content) i wouldnt mind and will play it regardless. it just irks me that they had to remove a perfectly good content.
also its better to actually play the first one before this one

 

[PeteHanson]

So can anybody tell me if i should even bother with the story for this butchered thing? I saw what happend to the first and was very sure this is just what they do now, so this doesn't surprise me in the slightest. Is the story worth it at least?

Don't overhype yourselves just yet! Those poor peeps (blessed be their hearts) are still only at 6% TL progress...of the FIRST novel, after 5 months.
But hey, maybe the pace will pick up eventually... xD

 

[_DarkDesires_]

The english version has no sexual content, it's been cut from the game

Excuse my language but...Why the ****? What the actual ****?!?

< Butchered Content

< Fan Restoration Project @ 6% at the moment

Welp.... Bookmark it is.

 

[slayerdart]

I was planning to buy this series but I abstained after seeing that the H content was removed and they don't have any plans adding it in the future. I remember they said something about liscensing issues, but that sounds bullsh*t to me. This Novel reminds me of Chusingura, that was butchered to hell too.

I guess I'll wait for the restoration project before buying the english version.

Donate to the translators especially after they're done. The other asshats will never learn a damn thing if they get rewarded for a faulty/altered product. They'll just do the exact same next time if they don't get hammered in the ass badly and others learn from them.
We want these jap games precisely because of its unique charm and the hentai content.
Removing it all makes it exactly the same as the shit in the western market.

I wouldn't mind donating but where? I don't see any link in the fuwanovel.

I just don't get the idea of the publishers picking up a goddamn Eroge then changed it to all-ages version. If they're trying to reach the audience, they're doing it wrong. I'm still salty on the Chusingura.

Yess!!! Finally someone else who is mad at the way they did Chusingura... That was very saddening. Besides the point, point I wanted to make here is, is this even an all ages version? Because when I think all ages, I think of something with light swearing and non heavy related topics that young ones or younger teens, can read and be okay with, since it's branded ALL ages and not just Teen. Just butchering the sex scenes out a game doesn't make it for all ages IMO, so I don't get why they operate under the assumption it does. They'll run around half dressed where a light breeze would fully have them reveal what they're hiding anyway, so they might as well just leave the game in tact or add in an option for turning the H content off like some other games have done before.

i think you guys are missing the whole point of some companys like fruitbat doing censored versión or as you call it butchered, why they dont fucking care releasing butchered versión? because they know some fan will make a patch restoration for free, thats why they dont care anymore to do that themselves.
that way they avoid having to do it and still get the benefits if a fan do it for them.

This is what happens if you do not get payed and do this as a hobby. Be glad its done at all and cut your smug attitiude, bud.

I highly doubt it. There is a far more likely option and we saw this happen before its the console market and they quite literlly selling the pc audience out to get onto kids toys. I do not think they care if anybody makes a FREE patch for anything, if they still have a bigger audience on console as a result of butchering adult games.

 

[IlIKEASD]

so if you can't fuck the girls , how do the story progresses? the girls magically become your wives ir whatever happens? hahaha guy this is ridiculous

 

[Zippix]

No, no it's not. It's what Fruitbat Factory does. They only translate AA-17+ titles. If a VN in its original PC form does not meet those standards they either don't TL it or use a ported version, as is the case with Noratoto 1 where they chose to TL the console release of the original PC version, i.e. PC==> Console ==> PC which is mind-boggingly stupid if you ask me. All we can do is rely on fan-TLs or some sane Western publishers to retranslate it as FF is doing nothing more than harm the industry, much like SakuraGames. Or we could al just learn JP, lol.

One additional thing that we could do is support people like

who fan-TL and have a Patreon account of their own. I've only mentioned them specifically because they were translating Gran Ende II which is on the Latest Games&Updates page, too.

, idk who does VNs but maybe some could be swayed to do so. I think this is probably the best approach to combat these practices as it shows publishers/localizers where the money should go and how they should practice their craft. I wouldn't have done it any other way in his position. Hopefully I'll get there some day.

Amen.

Hmm, rereading my post made me realize that it *could* be read as smuggish too, so just to clear things up: it wasn't intended to be. lol
I honestly empathize with those poor peeps, taking on such a project (well, two, actually) - lots of effort, and as you said, "only" for the common good.
It's just that objectively... well, prepare for a long wait!

At any rate, this practice seemed to me -though I ain't no marketing guru or anything- quite counterproductive. I think they might be losing $$$ with this...
Then again, I guess there's their "brand" to consider too.
Nah, butchering/censoring/taking out the pron for the sake of...something overly localizing just doesn't sit well with me, I guess.

Ok sorry for coming at you like this, but yeah that is text only communication for you, its always prone to misunderstandings.

As for the project/s seeing both games as listed "long" 30 to 50 hours on vndb after i wrote that made me realize just how much work those guys have ahead of them. I really pray they will stick to it, if not i hope somone else will pick their work up.
In any case this sutuation is not as bad as things like the recent Yu-No remake that was a console only affair at first and then got ported over, making it impossible to restore, due to never any of the new artstyle having any adult content to begin with. So just on this level alone we should really be glad its even possible to go back and add those scenes into it at all.

 

[Sin-xix]

One thing that pisses me off is the fact that some localizers use the term "localization" and run wild with it.
I know when I'm about to buy a jap game. I'm buying it for that very reason because its a jap game and I expect and want all the references and jokes the original had. I don't need it to make sense, just to be read in english. I've already learned more about Japan from games/manga/anime etc than any class could ever hope to teach me.

Doing it for "teh nOrmies" can fuck right off, they're not the ones buying the figures or hard copies or anything else that actually help the creators.

 

[Someone]

So... once again no one was able to make a restoration patch for the 18+ content...
Let's wait and pray.
