Atlach nacha translation when?
>>548363014Has she appeared in Beat gacha collab yet?
>>548363265both yes and no
>>548363265>>548363570Okay I was mistaken. I read that her daughter (raised by Kanako appeared) but looks like that they both appear.
>>548365241
>>548365436
And the "daughter" after Hatsune lays an egg which Kanako raises
I scanned the first set of the Harem Master TCG in case anyone gives a shit. Uploaded them here:https://mega.nz/folder/JW4lXTTC#pXBwgWa86HL0lyrmbhmDYw
>>548366493Downloading
>>548366493I hate mega so much
>>548363014Our next match is against Danganronpa general on Sunday week. Over the last week we have upgrade Kay-chan's model significantly with new textures and also given him some extra arms. >>548367573Is that meant to be a Leazas emblem on his head?
jump
>>548363170Never. Just like any other Alicesoft title that's not Rance or the Dai series.
Does anyone have the scan version for Hanihon 8?
>>54837258923 years for daiakuji to get a partial... and who knows if the translator will make it he's going to get attacked by the same yakuzas who go after the ume mutsume gooners. its jover
Can't AI translate daiakuji?
Does anyone have h scene for Hatsune in beat gacha?
>>548367765Maris isn’t happy
>>548383473
>>548366493Don't eat wrenches Maria, they are covered in grease.
>>548363014What did Kanami mean by this?
>>548391043Sheila should have stayed away from Lia’s darling
>>548366493How do you play it?
I know this is a niche hobby and they gotta fund the endless Rance X translation but $90 for the 03 physical is rough. You could buy the 35th Anniversary collection 2nd hand for that price.
>>548396049It's such a bummer that disk releases for PC games stopped being a thing.
>>548366493THANKS!!>>548395815http://card.g1.xrea.com/t3/tti05hm.html
>>548396049Where are you seeing that for the 35th anniversary box? The only listing I found just now was a 400 dollar ebay listing sold in September.
>>548396356It doesn't bug me as much as it seems to bug other people, These games mostly sit unopened on my shelf anyway. Be honest you were never going to install from a CD, most people have a download copy from Mangagamer already or pirated it.
>>548396471I saw a bunch of them at physical stores in Japan when I was there recently. I can't remember the exact price but it was under 100 USD. I'm sure you can get it way cheaper than $400 if you buy 2nd hand in Japan and proxy ship it.
>>548396471Bro we told you to buy it while it was still available and relatively easy to get now scalpers have your balls in a vice.
>>548396657>$90>You could buy the 35th Anniversary collection 2nd hand for that price.i will help with 20$ if you scan the artbook(rance series works and designs)need that artbook so bad...
>>548397073It’s almost identical to what is already out there
>>548391043Dedication to Helman removal
>>548376572sure
>>548363014Has Atlach Nacha been translated yet?
>>548397854No and never will be
>>548396816I already bought it when it came out brother, I was just checking since that niwa mentioned it.
>>548397854>>548398331Just wait AI to reach human level in 2 years
>>548404339You said that two years ago
>>548404724and he'll say it again in 2 years. And 2 years later and so on.
>>548410505>three attacksDid somebody say "three strikes"?
>>548410505>serious>serious>excited
>>548404339The AI isn't the problem. Not enough people give a shit about that game to bother with a translation.
>>548404724he's trolling.You can literally just grab Chatgpt and do it right now.Just remember to tell the AI the characters' genders beforehand so it doesn't fuck up their pronouns.
>>548421391Where did Maria's Marias go?
>>548421949>Chatgptis that the meta for translations? And what would that cost anyway?
>>548422329She removed them under the western influence
Wonder if the plotline of the guy with "666" tattoo'd above his cock will go anywhere in the games after 02.
>>548422329that's young Maria for some reason probably even Alicesoft doesn't know.
>>548422449No idea, it's just what they used in X's AI translation.
>>548422531It was Gi
>>548422090Her time in the slammer really changed her
>>548422090gangster kanami
>>548341529The start is slow but when you get more actions on your bread and butter skills + more aoe skills things get better, but changing people in/out mid battle still sucks ass. >>548366493cool
>>548430197old ai meets old meme
>>548430197Tsuina would never
bump
>>548388407Cute 70 IQ untermensch
Shizuka pleases
>Fully ready to play Quest>Next Quest is after Rance has been retaining semen to enter the Kalar village>I have visitorsHow big is my risk?I'm playing anyway.
I love Suzume so much, but I also love that Rance gains 80 IQ points whenever hunting down a high-value woman.
Cute!
Sachiko is tanking great.
Isn't that insanely good?
Why am I reminded of Yu-Gi-Oh Forbidden Memories?
I thought Orochi was the perfect counter to Rance's ideals. I was wrong.
>>548449192She seems like the type to spam Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragons.
>>548449192I like how Aegis and Sakura are just watching like>welp here she goes again
This game is fucking perfect.
>>548449849It's true. Gigai was sealed for a trillion years and look how gay he got.
>>548449632Pastel really needed a royal tard wrangler
>>548450071She needed dick even more, and Kalar are unequipped to supply this critical resource. Luckily the invisible hand of the free market intervened to fix this problem
Maybe I'm reminded of how early Mind Crushes?>>548449978It seems silly, but I like that this is a personal threat to Rance. It's not like the other games, where the bad guys are attacking the country he happens to be in.
Alice! We're going to be okay! We can use the Alice Power to review Rance's cock! It only costs 4 points!Right?
I am enjoying this far too much.
Useless ninja ruined my perfect death!
>>548443215shark-teethed men for nakadashi.
Best. Girl.The H-scenes are certainly better than Sengoku. Far more variety and not always played for comedy.
This is my first quest with a map tonight. I wish the game didn't have them. The event-only quests are much more fun.
>>548452593>sengokuwiki man is a hanny of impeccable tasteNice
Not sure about these training wheels. I'm crippling Rance for an extra 9 EXP.>>548455371I loved System in IV, but we haven't seen her in a long time.
How am I going to half kill her? There is no time cap.
>>548449849I can confirm Crook is wrong
>Level 40I'm guessing Rizna? She likes to travel. That's how we met her in VI. Her level cap is 43, if I remember right.
Either my tactics are working or these guys are easy.
It's too easy to mis-click on these screen and lose the chance to add skills.
JUSTICE
Couldn't Assassinate Bird with Suzume, but I have another idea.Holy shit! That was an instant kill!
What the fuck?
I couldn't find where the next event was. Beat the old man and then couldn't find anything.
I'm lost. Does she backtrack?
Yes.
What's this consensual sex doing in my Rance game?
A trap!
The Morurun is the best thing to happen to the Rance series. The H-scenes are much longer, varied, and hotter.I'm convinced this game is leagues better than Rance VI. How far as I through Quest anyway?
I love that you don't need to buy something before testing who can equip it.I think I'm finished for tonight. Might be more than a week before I can play again.Goodnight, /haniho/
>>548461989You are still on the quest partMagnum portion will be on the later portion of game
>>548461989It is a charming game for sure. The writing highlights the fun part of the series. If you see people with a negative opinion on quest, it's always gameplay related, and usually from burning themselves out from playing too much.
>>548448848The amount of XP you get depends on the amount of enemies you defeat, so this skill wouldn't be very good in a party with a lot of AoE skills.>>548461989About 5% in if you count magnum
>>548461989I fought 1300-1400 battles roughly (it keeps track of how often you deploy a unit in battle, but I didn't deploy rance for a decent chunk) in my playthrough of quest magnum, no NG+. I only booted up the game 22 times. Note that I didn't have TADA mode on for most of my playthrough.
>>548462337Have you got Emi and shizuka yet? Lia also useful recruit
>>548452593Overrated girl
>>548451918Kanami saves Rance while Sill is too busy chilling to notice
>>548477050Lazy afro skank
>>548367765Sorry made a mistake. Our match against /drg/ is on Friday at 19.40 UTC
>>548458265Bird is weak
>>548450071Pastel needs sharklets
>>548410505Abert was so fucking cool.
>>548480651My Archfriend is so good
>>548363014Hatsune is pretty
>>548480651>never see any webms of our excellent keeper carrying the teamyou fags are just biased against Kaybliss
>>548449192She has nice Pastels
Toushin Toshi will get a remake before Rance gets anything.
>>548507703I would be happy if toushin toshi gets a remake since it would basically be Rance 11
>>548507703I mean, Toushin Toshi takes place after Rance X.
>>548507703It already got a remake
I only just realised her eyes were hanny shaped. I can't even look 2D girls in the eyes...
Rance 02 hanny here, going to start posting again
>>548512697fuck i didn't realised it too
>Rance 03 is $168 AUDThe sacrifices I make to keep this company going until Rance X releases
>Replaying X>get to turn 11 and Vaswald STILL hasn't dropped after having 500 cards on hard mode>check the bonus challenges in main menu>shit, I need to redo it>go back into game>vaswald drops the very next cardThis was frustrating, but surely this wasnt complete coincidence but something exploitable
>>548512697Most people can't tell you their favourite characters eye colour without looking it up. Except for me I know Maria's eyes are blue
>>548514867Of course I know Rikku-chan's eyes glow red with murderous intent
>>548514632To be fair the average gacha character costs more than that nowadays
>>548514632>"Haha, why would I buy the 03 physical edition for 90 US dollars when I already bought the 35th anniversary box?">see stickers and keychains>see artbook that's likely just a compilation of the game CGs>picrelNext thing you know I'm going to be buying the 03 40$ mouse pad. Someone help me stifle my desires.
>>548443215Whales
>>548514632Perth anon here. I bought as well
>>548514867How? The face is the part you look at the most, so it should come naturally.
>>548514867This is absolutely true
Shit I just realised that Rance 02 has two different versions, Rance 02 and Rance 02 Kai. Does this matter at all?
>>548520769Play Kai
>>548520821shit. I've been playing 02 up to Chapter 3. Should I bother starting over?
>>548521281Not really 99% identical.
>>548521612I see I'm supposed to find and defeat cake women, but where do I find them? I haven't randomly encountered any yet
>>548522409nvm, found this one spot
>Complete chapter 3>Alice: What's Rance doing now?>Cue happy music>SexKEK
oh shit I won the lottery!
>>548530252Remember us when you're rich
>girl is into consensual sexBoring every time
Which game is Rance his most rancid? I hear he mellows out later.
>>548532574III (not 03), 5D and VI
>>548532736I was going to fight you on VI since it's the start of the new canon but yeah, thinking back on it he was kind of a shit throughout
>>548532574He is most based in KR
>>548532916VI was still written by Tori
>>548532957I'm glad I'm saving that for last then.
>>548367765I never see Torako play
>>548532916I would argue that Rance is at his more rancid and selfish in VI.
Kek.
Waiting For Rance X is like Waiting For the world to end, god damn Can MangaGamer be any slower?
>>548541153yes, they can
>>548533469She watches you play instead
>>548554629And she laughs
>>548367765If my sister was Hornet I would have major moral dilemmas.
>>548532574Early Quest.
>>548449192I haven't practiced imagine editing much.
>>548463946Is Training is bad for the same reason? One kill that you would have missed due to Training is worth a lot.5%? That's good.
>>548573415Not really.
I applied the TADA patch for VI and now it keeps making me read shit I already saw.
Unfathomably based
Oh that's actually really smart
Jump
Shut up, frog
>>548576846>Is Training is bad for the same reason?Yeah, you are supposed to use it on characters that either don't deal any significant damage or on characters that you want to use but they are too low level for that.
NYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>548602661?What's the problem?
>>548604028Just funny how mindbroken Lia is.
>>548604481She's not mindbroken, she's just pure-hearted.
rance x doko...
>>548602661Lawful wife
>>548363014Should I blogpost VI or Quest?
>>548610970Both
>>548612110Which one first?
>Even as a goddess willis is raped
>badmouthing Shizuka actually does something>She's the only enemy in the whole game with this reaction
Well that was fast.
>>548613862There are two other enemies who react to getting taunted in some way.
>>548575717Rance definitely seems like the type to not use trap cards or spell cards at all. If it was up to him his deck would probably be like 40 Gate Guardians and nothing else.
>>548613862Its funny but Tokkou-chan also reacts
That was a bit quick. Time for 03.
>>54861526102 is just a remaster of a 1990 game. 03 is full proper remake and voiced
>>548615560>voiced>H U H
>>548615851KANAMI is very cute
holy shit 03 has such fucking high quality
>Not even an hour
>>548618376get bullied
>>548391043She did her best
>>548613862Tokkou kills herself
>>548391043Kanami with the header?
>>548634851Handlebars too thin, they would snap during intended use.
>>548637481Built out of the fineness alloys
I'm going to rape the shit out of this foul mouthed brat.
KEEEEEEEK
>>548640387Nah ,Rance doesn't do it with kids, r-right?
>>548641713Is that something a hero of justice would do?
>>548643045Yes
This fucking whore
>>548644447Pay for play
>>548644748Hasn't changed a bit.
Surprisingly wholesome...?
Her voice is actually really cute here
>>548641713
>>548647625>cuteWait until you hear Mill's voice
do we know how much the beat gacha make?
Actually extremely good idea lmao
kek
Big fan of the Demons' exaggerated dialects
>>548649721Poor Feliss
>>548649570yes
>>548649570Currently it made around 19 million yen I thinkhttps://game-i.daa.jp/?DMM%E3%82%B2%E3%83%BC%E3%83%A0%E3%83%A9%E3%83%B3%E3%82%AD%E3%83%B3%E3%82%B0%EF%BC%88R18%EF%BC%89
>>548650176I miss when I was young and voice actors would use overexaggerated dialects. They weren't good, but they were fun. Nowadays I mostly hear voice actors that aren't good and are also boring in my vidya.
Sounds way more chill than I expected
>>548652123>Have to roleplay in his smut fanfic to passHonestly? Based.
>Rose was such a fucking slut she's the reason why Return Daemons are always kneeling
This you lot /haniho/?
>>548653784They must have grabbed some random posts from here for this scene
>>548653784Yea
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
KKKANAMI
>>548463896>If you see people with a negative opinion on quest, it's always gameplay related,What are the typical complaints?
>>548467638I haven't done any great Wiki use.
>>548669758Grinding
>>548669758Too grindy and it keeps deleting my savefiles.
>>548675542Deleting savefiles?
>>548676039Yes. As far as I know if you move the game folder your saves become useless.
>>548677292Sometimes, I wonder if I should play these games in a VM and snapshot the whole fucking VM rather than save.
>>548677292Just don’t move it then
>>548683930Is healing in the Ranceverse similar to Resident Evil, like, can you regenerate wrong if you take too much damage? Sill said at the end of 01 that the really high level healing spells can turn you into a freaky mutated monster like Maris did.
>>548679438I got a new PC>>548684227Not really. It's just that one spell. It's never brought up again.
>>548686531You can just install the game, run it once and put your old save files in the new save folder
>>548686960That would be the logical solution. Unfortunately, it doesn't work.
>>548684227It’s a sign of MALICE’s true status
>>548687196It works when I download saves from someone else and also them in
At least I can savescum in Sengoku. Also I was just about to conquer the JAPAN tenshin capital and I got the dumb blue screen. That sucks. Also when will Kouhime's fingers turn dark? I'm waiting. There's a lot of beauties in JAPAN. Slim and long haired, just like Alice intended
>>548677292>As far as I know if you move the game folder your saves become useless.That's not how it works, anon
Gahaha!
Do you think all the sexual violence is keeping the series from becoming more popular, or is it like one or two youtube video away from going big exactly because it's so unashamedly outrageous by mainstream standards? Berserk became huge even in the mainstream despite the violence and the sexuality.
>>548696502It's not how it's suposse to work, but it's how it works.
>>548702515Yes it's the sexual violencePeople are very touchy about that stuff, especially when it's portrayed in a not 100% negative light
>>548702757I'll have to see if I can fetch my save from my old pc, and I guess it will work just fine.
>>548702515Black souls has sexual violence and is pretty popular, so i don't think it that
>>548702515It has something to do with it but it's not the only reason. It's simply not a very accessible and easy-to-get-into series. For an eroge it's already pretty popular.
Feeling some dead internet in here.
Question for those niwas who live in "anti-loli" countries like Australia. Can you get into legal troubles for consuming, possessing, and producing 2D loli content?
>>548711703Yes.
Daiakuji update.After months of stalling because reasons, I'm back on the grind. Mercs are all done, starting with the Takayamas now.However, I'm gonna start skipping the H-scenes FOR NOW, and wrap them all up in one go once everything else is done. Might even release a 0.9 version with everything but the H-scenes to see if everything's working (I'm STILL having problems, believe it or not, even more so than before), then finish them and release the completed version. The reason being that holy shit H-scenes are so tedious that they sap motivation like nothing else.I still don't know when this'll be released, I want to do it by next year but no promises. Would be a guarantee if my doujin TL contacts helped with the H-scenes...
>>548702515That’s not the true reason, there are multiple things stopping it from becoming popular1) No Anime Adaptation: Random guy on the internet “Rance that hentai?”We don’t have an anime adaptation to get people interested in this ip2)Eroge on decline: This genre was at peak popularity before 2010 and now it’s pretty dead3)Gacha: Gacha killed eroge/vn/ln and now they are going to kill jrpg4)Our popularity: This series peaked in popularity thrice once in kichikuou , another in sengoku and last in Rance 10 we are past those times
>>548714263What happens next? Whenever Beat gacha ends they are going to pick out another ip to make it a gacha Rance , Evenicle and even toushin toshi and dohna dohna may have a chance
Guys I just realised that Nintendo Switch 2 games being priced aroun 70-90 dollars now
>>548717119Pretty expensive buying games is now becoming a whale hobby
>>548717119Regular ge are now priced like eroge. We won.
>>548702515Not just that. There's also the fact that:>Rance isn't available on mainstream platforms, gatekeeping people who can't search on google>The only "anime adaptation" we have is a literal hentai series of the first game>Having to actually read the gameThese are good things btw. The mainstream audience is utterly insufferable and I got into Rance because its edginess keeps them out
Shizuka's leitmotif is godtier. If they used it for Julia instead, we'd all be Juliafags.
>>548706837It's popular because it got infested by the "oh um ur ackshually supposed to DISLIKE the main character" types of filth.
>>548720613There's the ova from the 90's too.
>>548720884I don't think there's a single juliafag in this franchise.
Hot
ALL ACCORDING TO PLAN
>>548724647That was my favorite h-scene in the game.
Maria's VA is great holy shit
>>548723883That's because she doesn't have the right theme song.
>>548726934I'm starting 03 tomorrow and the VA work is something I'm looking forward to a lot. It didn't always hit in Evenicle, but when it did, fuck, my Excalibur could have pierced the heavens. I think I almost liked it more in those cases than the CGs.
>>548721749Blonde Rance, best Rance.
Holy shit I can't wait to gaslight Lola. Unironically fuck her.
KEKKKKKKKKKKKK
I feel so bad for him LMAOOOO
Why thank you very much Shizuka. Glory to the revolutionary army.

>>548728107Considering that the other girl who dominated the popularity polls for a while was Kenshin, you're probably right.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yff0LH-iGE0
Some of the Mangagamer translation choices bug me, but I do think fiend is a better translation for majin than Dark Lord. Dark Lord just sounds like yet another translation for maou.I think it should be Demon King and fiends.
>>548736797I guess they thought it would be too confusing to have both a Demon King and a Devil King. I think Dark Lord is much better though.
They should just kept it as Maou and MajinImagine watching dragon ball and they call Majin Buu as Fiend Buu
what the FUCK
>>548739784Scary monster.
>>548739784I'm literally shaking right now
I LOVE MY INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION WIFE

I can feel the terror in his voice
>>548743053FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK this should've been voiced.
>>548743948Remove helmaniggers
>>548743053What's his problem?
At least I don't think he knew. Maybe we will get a blog about his feelings about AI.
