>>544495040Reposting the roster poll which will run until Sunday. If you look at the attached image - these are all the player options for the poll. You may want to figure out who you want on the team before voting.The first question of the roster poll is required. Thirty Rance series players competing for 20 spots on the team. The 20 most popular players will make the roster and in this section you vote for the 20 players you want on the team.VGL rosters have a 5 medal system which involve 2 Gold (99 base stat), 3 Silver (88 base stat) who have elevated stats compared to the rest of the team (77 base stat). Our current medals are Rance, Kanami, Shizuka, Rick and Maris. We also run a single goalkeeper who is Kekblis. The top 6 players will be the 5 medals and the keeper. If none of the top 6 are thematically suited to keeping and the 7th or 8th player is they will be keeper. The team captain will be the medal or keeper who is best suited for Captaincy (AKA Rance).The second question of the roster poll is also required. As a general we previously decided to allocate 3 roster spots to Alicesoft's other games and series. This is to select those 3 roster spots. So vote for the 3 (out of 6) players you want on the team.The third question of the roster poll is also required but will fortunately be quick. It is to choose Satella's name. Either Cock Connoisseur or *Orgasms*.The final question of the roster poll is completely optional and can be skipped. It is there only for stats autism.Since Sen and Tone are now going to be a combined player as per >>543984543 Should Muh Oyakodon be considered the same player as Sen and inherit her playing record (11 VGls, 20 matches), the same player as Tone (4 VGLs, 9 matches) or a brand new player?Roster poll link here: https://s.surveyplanet.com/ot0rg2rk

If alicesoft were still making eroge, would they make parodies of dei shit?
>>544512138Daiakuji?
>>544512138If its not a thing in Japan unlikely to be parodied
>>544512509Well, I meant a parody of modern dei tropes. By the way, I haven't played it.For example girl boss, black washing, Mary sues, angry/ugly women, trannies and pronouns, immigration, weak men, etc.
>>544513457Not a thing in Japan
>>544513034>>544513506Yes, but are japanese people aware of that?I've found an asanagi doujinshi where he made fun of concord, and an old news story where the japanese mocked the failure of a dei western game about old Japan.
>>544514534They’d be aware that Hollywood loves black people but I’d suggest they aren’t aware and don’t care.
>>544514534>asanagiHe is a chink.
>>544512138Anon, they literally did just that before Anita was even a journalist
>>544514792They are going to care when their overtaken by floods of Indians within the next few years. The question is how long does it take for Japanese hospitality and compliance to turn into Japanese hatred towards outsiders.
>>544515424I don’t know and in any case while I mostly agree let’s keep politics out of here
Go to /pol/ for political opinion please
I agree with the other anons, this is really not the place.
Maybe 10 seconds
>>544523271Is that how long you would last with Kamilla?
>>544523772Max it’s about how long Rance lasts the first time

>>544523772I’d last at least 20

>>544538792Best in the Continent.
>>544538964>>544538792Kamilla’s thighs are the best in the continent
>>544540709Abert disagrees
>>544543473Impossible
>>544495040How is it hanging? I am extremely drunk on mediocre beer. Those motherfuckers better have translated and edited X by now.
>>544558783Drink like 3 more and open Kichikuou and you won't be able to tell the difference
>>544560179LOL, nice. Time for another 1.5L bottle of plastic Skopsko Smooth.
Has anyone else seen "haters" like this talking about rance series?>be the hater>"muh, mc is a misogynic rapist">write a review about impressions without actually playing it>moments later>play it>beginning to like it because wrong reasons>write a incoherent review
>>544570056I don’t really look up reviews from those sorts but I could see it
>>544570056Refer to this chart
>>544570056No, I have never seen any Rance hater.
Rance haters do not exist this world
>>544579665There only exist Rance fans and temporarily embarrassed Rance fans
I liked Race from day 1
>>544579665She looks like she's doing that :Principle Skinner calling you pathetic" pose
Would Rance accept working as a porn actor?
>>544593751Consider how he normally treats his women
Don't open this. I'm warning you.
>>544594302Well, my question was whether he would follow orders on how to fuck for the recording.
>>544599745Since he was getting payed, he would until he got bored and then he would do it how he wants.
>>544599703Did she become Mexican?
>>544600494Sill barrel
>>544601420Oh, the most terrifying creature on the continent.
>>544599703I feel a strong sense of foreboding
Bill Sarrel
>>544593751He accepts Leazish girls
>>544613932How can they win?
>>544613996Send Tone to use her sex skills
>>544593751Only if it’s the King’s favourite porn
If Rance had some favourite pornstars he would fuck them

what percentage is rance x ati wanna play it before i die (stopped learning chinese when i saw characters with more than 7 strokes that shits 無理)
>>544659052Editing is over 50% last time i saw it
>>544660247wow...
>>544660247Now that we are in the AI era, editing is what demands the most time and effort.
You'll be able to AI generate your own Rance X before mankograbber gets anywhere with the translation
>>544667231I mean... https://github.com/klesun/rance-10-gpt-mtl>>544659052That's the best you'll get before 2027
>>544667231meh, machine translation still sucks ass compared to humans especially without manual editing... I remember the days of ATLAS so it's definitely impressive by comparison, but the improvement is more in writing than translating. LLMs will almost always output a readable English sentence, because that's what they do. It just might not resemble what the original sentence meant. In the end it's still just the "i'm not EOP" guy with his phone but with better grammar.This file is a goldmine btw, laughing right now remembering KKEBERISEE memes
>>544671461Cave Bris is a good one
>>544671461All aboard the Cavebus
newfag here. So what's the best rance game if you want total liberty to rape as much as possible?
>>544672004>Desert Bus clone but it's a Rance X prequel where you play as Lord CaveOne driving the Cavebus across the desert to find Shangrila before the war
>>544672440Sengoku or Kichikuou but Sengoku is better to start with
>>544671461>machine translation still sucks ass compared to humans especially without manual editingI wouldn't say so considering it can translate a thousand times faster than a human. If you add human inputs and editing then it's just an straight up better choice.
>>544671461>Cave RisuFuck, how did I never notice he literally has squirell in his name?
>>544672607If a human has to check every line anyway then it's not 1000x faster. What you really mean is it's 1000x faster when you don't know Japanese. In other words, it lets people who don't know Japanese produce a convincing enough English version, which is of course a real benefit since it makes it cheaper and easier.But once a work is translated it's translated forever. So in the view of posterity, better MTL is actually making translations worse. Many titles have gotten edited MTLs and so an actual human who can read the words won't bother touching it since it's already "translated". This means the title is stuck with AI-isms for all eternity.Meanwhile it might take 40 years but eventually Rance X will be translated and edited by people, and it will forever remain playable with a translation someone put effort into. But random dlsite game #495 might never get a fanTL, because someone shoved BepinEx into it and F95 users that don't even know English went "wow very good english sir u have full save?"
>>544673284How many eroges have actually been translated or in the process of translation before MTL? Seems a bit more like a doujin issue rather than Eroge.
>>544674134That's kind of a chicken-and-egg problem. The reason doujinge are so popular now is because of the digital distribution revolution, you no longer have to find a publisher to sell your game. Same reason indies in general exploded in the 2010s.The amount of money flowing in means a higher volume of games, more games than professional translators can handle or even bother with. So you could say doujinge get MTLs because it's not practical to expect so many human TLs.On the other hand, you could also say the booming business in doujinge led to more quality products which stimulated foreign demand, leading to more translations in general, and MTL is cheaper so it got used more.Which came first, the supply or the demand? Hard to say I guesswhen it comes to professional eroge it's a totally different landscape than the 2000s/2010s so I wasn't really talking about those. I think their reputation as "premium" products with actual publishers means they tend to get human translations (or at least translations produced by companies that employ humans...)...which isn't always a good thing. Alleged human beings committed the crime against humanity that was the Nukitashi translation, for example... but in general I feel fanTLs wind up better than MTL because the fan translators actually care about what they're doing. Whereas MTL, edited or otherwise, is the cheapest option to just push it out the door.
>>544673284>If a human has to check every line anyway then it's not 1000x fasterIt would only be 200 times faster. AI is already better at translation than most people who know Japanese. The errors they make are based on context and can be corrected by people who don't know Japanese. You can also ask the AI to take notes on all the names of characters, places, and concepts so that you won't have a "Kui Bles" situation.
