>>572756263Amakano 2 was so dull I privately seethed about it for hours. I think a lot of "moege" like it are an utter insult to the very idea of love and romance. I have absolutely no interest in brainless flesh golems delivered to my doorstep that love me automatically for trivial favors no matter how big their tits are. Everyone in that game is boring. I dropped it a few hours in.
I have a hot female servant.

Reposting this here>>572756676>Cause companies don't engage in dishonest and shady practices to inflate numbersIf 9-nine is doing so well where are the celebration tweets from palette?

>mfw he told me to turn off my monitor
>>572757396>>572757604What have I done.....
>>572757747More people can't buy a game after release because uhh.......... they just can't, okay?

>>572757768Never forget that the Manosaba fan tl is bad and that it's full of imagined lines and that it's not faithful. Please don't play it, wait for the official, or use the youtube translation! This shit is hurting the sales and Acacia, do NOT support it!
>>572757883Nobody said that? But 9-nine being at the top of the sales rankings when it's competition is a literal who rpg and a game that has been out for more than 2 months is not exactly impressive, like at all. It seems you don't understand how the majority of a games sales are within the first month when the hype is the highest. Yes you will still have sales come in past the hype phase but it's nowhere near close to the amount of launch date. Ergo, 9-nine arteisia being number 1 on dmm doesn't indicate it's success whatsoever, especially when dmm keeps all it's inner system workings and usable info under lock and key.
>>572758295It made more people buy the VN than any other fan tl I know of.
>>572758295>Never forget that the Manosaba fan tl is bad and that it's full of imagined lines and that it's not faithful.i know, i'm a jep after all. half the lines are made up>Please don't play it, wait for the official, or use the youtube translation! no, i hate acacia for not optimizing their games for deck, they don't deserve my money>This shit is hurting the sales and Acaciagood!

>>572757747>>Cause companies don't engage in dishonest and shady practices to inflate numbersImagine saying this and then acting like a celebration tweet is concrete proof of success. Are you actually retarded?
>>572759417I don't know who you think I am but using mtler as an insult in 2026 on /vn/ isn't the own you think it is. Also you seem lost >>>/jp/
Jast where is Sumomo NiTRo Witches?
Sexo>>572758846That's depressing
>>572759543That was referring to dmm not palette you dipshit. A company publicly tweeting a sales milestone and lying about it is completely different from dmm using some underhanded algorithm that isn't "technically" illegal.
holy mother of all truth nukes, don't read this if you aren't sitting down: all translations are bad
>>572759975Why would DMM give a shit about Palette? Totsuraba is also at the top of the FANZA rankings, do you doubt that too?
>>572759450Pre-orders have been up since the same week the game released in Japan but they're working on a Steam version too, I assume this is what is taking their time
>>572760115Because Palette is not some literal who company? And we have corresponding evidence of totsurabas success(for what it's worth) with all the physical editions being sold out.
>>572760510So DMM decided to boost Palette's new game in their sales ranking because... they're not a literal who company?What are you even trying to say nigga?Maybe. Just maybe, their game is at the top of the rankings because they're not a literal who company. Crazy, I know.

>>572761380>which is an allowed vndb submission formatit shouldnt be, thats retarded
Can someone fix the art with AI
>>572760819Yes, the new game by a company who launched an anime that flopped, pivoted to all ages and didn't even bring the original writer on board is TOTALLY popular and a smashing success when their only competition in the rankings are games long past the hype stage.Or, maybe palette reached an 'agreement' with dmm to artificially prop up their game. Because that type of thing DEFINITELY never happens.
>>572761427Nah there's plenty overlay software nowadays so its not much of an issue. Interface patches are dumber since they're essentially useless besides some jop cope about unreadable fonts
>>572761583>jop cope about unreadable fontshookcuck cope*
All-ages kino just keeps winning.
>>572760827he's having a melty. don't worry, aiGOD will btfo once his totsuraba patch is ready (which we WILL be reading btw)
>>572761542>an anime that floppedDo you know how anime production works? Do you think Palette animated it themselves or something?Do you think every adaptation is paid for by the publisher of the original work?
>>572761890aiGOD's patch reads WORSE that AIsir's, doe?
>>572758528Liar, dishonest, silly, and rude.

AI WONLUDDITES LOSTworking UVNL prototype as soon as nano banana flash drops next week
>>572762491i dont know what this means
>>572762491the fuck is uvnl
>>572762596>>572762542>they don't know
>>572761914Palette was one of the members on the production committee and greenlit the project. The intention was obviously to boost the sales of their original 9-nine series and bring more of the 'all age' crowd to their all age 9-nine spin off. Clearly we can their plan didn't exactly pan out as they hoped with how the anime was received and the impact it had on 9-nine sales. For comparison, nukitashi had a huge spike on steam after the anime launched while 9-nine was basically unchanged.
>>572762689>uppercaser descriptionwe wont be using
Is AI the norm in the translation industry now? Like, do professional translators use it in secret and refuse to admit it because people are still biased about the use of LLMs?
>>572762491>pay out the fucking ass for slop localization with even less contextual memory no
>>572762689That's not even half good, man.
>>572762756kek true, we WILL be fixing the readme in the next release>>572762775>luddite cope
>>572762757I know several who use it to get a second take on some things, but none who have offloaded work to it.
>>572762757Probably.
>>572762815it's a 6 month old text with nano bana free. chatgpt image2 can localize images pretty much flawlessly now, it's just slow and expensive. once this shit get cheaper/faster in a couple of years at most it should be viable. the end-game goal is make it run each frame real time with temporal consistency but that's far off
>>572762970That's true. So I'll do my best to mock it while I still can.
>>572762757>because people are still biased about the use of LLMs?yeah, biased
>>572763147based, that's the right attitude
Post race traitor heroines
>best girl appears>>572762329They look like funny carrots>>572762474I hope it's visually depicted
>>572762689is the idea to run a fucking api and image edit every single line change on the fly? thats never going to be possible unless you're willing to throw a fortune into API usage
>>572763153I wonder why. AI can do wonders when you know how to calibrate it. And if you're an actual translator, you can instantly spot the problems and fix them. It makes your work so much easier. Perhaps the new generation will be more tolerant.
>>572756656BRO I GOT THIS 10 OBJECTIONS AGO STOP FUCKING WASTING MY TIME REEEEEEEEEEE I KNOW HOW DID IT'S OBVIOUS
>>572762757Obviously
best meido in a vinnie?
>>572762757Of course not.
>>572762757look at the gaming industry, everyone uses AI already lol why would translation be any different
>>572763490good morning sir
>>572762690Nukitashi has less ntr than 9 nine
>>572763460>thats never going to be possible unless you're willing to throw a fortune into API usagedid you know that ai gets 88x cheaper each year, on par of intelligence? kys luddite. actually we even have a video model now that can do video editing, gemini omni, so the tech is mostly there, it just has to get better/faster/cheaper. i'll give it 2 years at most until it's better than all the alternatives
>>572763724>look at the gayno way fag

>>572764623That's not what I'm talking about. There's currently too many hurdles for new creators to get past if they want make an anime or game. AI improving to a certain point would open the proverbial floodgates and just oversaturate the market with works from any schmuck with a dream and an AI subscription. There would also be a much higher burden of proof placed on creators for their 'authenticity' to the point of being nigh impossible.
>>572764795I knew it was you... translatoranonphantom...!!!!
>>572764927He's butthurt
>>572765085authenticity isn't a problem, blockchain and bio-id were a thing for a while. as for oversaturating the market, it's not an issue. do you know how many new games on steam there are each year? or how many ai books on amazon? it's all goyfeed for the goycattle that has absolutely no impact on people who want to consume something good and to create a community around it
