>>585116982Can I suggest something for the wiki? How about a guide on prostate stimulation?
[Continue fighting].
>>585117057i think that's more of a topic for the HTLwiki
Just finished Muramasa. Who ever said that a dumb libtard cuck can't be chuuni as fuck?!If you ignore all of his moralfagging and the retarded leftist propaganda he constantly forces down your throat, Kageaki is actually pretty cool when he's not getting cucked or humbled.
>>585116352The medium is dead moegeslop will continue flooding it and all that will be left is incels jerking off
>>585117296Kageaki is pro interracial racemixing with dark skin males and light skin women
>>585117361nakige are moe-adjacent tho
>>585117210Nah I am serious and I have a good reason for that. Now that eops have access to more jopge they will want to experience the same things jops do. According to multiple surveys, women feel more satisfied when having sex with other women since those women are better at exciting their G spot. The prostate is the man’s G spot and using it will lead to an experience unlike anything else. Jops know that. Convinced?
>>585116831>kino, kino and dogshit
>>585117490nakige is also for majority incels, utsuge is the sex haver medium, key is an incel company
>>585117510>>585117210>>585117057
>>585117624What if I used to have sex, but not anymore? What should I read?
jops have BBC dildos, eops are straight
>>585117624are you that one setoguchifag?
>>585117776If you haven't had sex in one year you are closer to an incel so definitely moe slop
>>585117776Maruto-ge
>>585116432>0 good games*yawn*
>>585116831>dogshit, kino and kino
>>585117487That's chuuni.
Waiting for Setoguchi-sama to save the medium in 2027.
>>585116831>dogshit, dogshit and dogshit

There's a Hearts of the Woods key to "win" on /r/yurivisualnovels. Studio Élan is the one OELVN maker I think is up to JVN standards.

>>585119012Ema panties
>>585119047you are retarded. the link says FREE and that guide uses FREE ai and harnesssasuga ludditor
>>585116982>MTL guide doesn't explain the most important step of character voice setup or any proper guidelines regarding itFor how much you use MTL you aren't very bright huh
I would destroy flood in a fight irl.
>>585119080you go claude 5.5? I wanted to compare writing style on around 28 lines of text to what I have kept from gemini 3.1
>>585119443you don't know english, but.
>>585118979EVNs can't be good.

>>585119572Wrong
>>585119572Except Lessons in Love.
>>585119618? It doesn't say anywhere in that image to establish character voices or any rules regarding character register.The only thing ur guide mentions is a glossary and a story summary. The entire thing is also way too fucking long and recommends deepseek of all models, you might aswell point people to google translate
>>585119817click the hyperlink
>>585119392Nothing is free in this world, stupid goy.
>>585119017>>585119086>>585119572>>585119726all of these posts are wrong
>>585119572This for yuri. They’ll turn somethung made for the male gaze into some slop about female rights.
REMINDER THAT LOLICONS WILL NEVER BE WELCOMED HERE.
>>585119998you are low iq
>>585120008
>>585119862You think anyone reading that guide will click the hyperlink AND also read whatever the fuck is this slop of a prompt (which you should never use, its way too fucking long) which still does not mention character voices?
Fuck your character voices Astra is smarter than u
>>585120145see >>585120231stop ruining perfectly fine TLs without your special "flair", but.
>>585120145>does not mention character voices?are you dumb
>>585115218Better?https://files.catbox.moe/bl7l4o.png(it took me good five minutes to find that catbox link, so you better appreciate it!)
>>585119526There's no such thing as claude 5.5. mtlbros and the entire target audience for commercial AI seem to be too lazy and dumb to even understand the difference between models, agents or other frontends, and web sites.
>>585120443it just works
>>585120341>he thinks constraining the model with vague personality shitslop is the correct way to go about this>no mention of what a casual speaker should sound like compared to a rough one or degrees of formal speechlol
>>585120443I meant opus 5.5, grasp thought shortcuts baka
>>585120513it just works
Are the Neko-nin ExHeart games any good? Pic related.

>>585120573you left out the important bit, 5.5 could also refer to sonnet retard

>>585120730Schwarzesmarken tl bad? That's disappointing I thought it could work out.
>>585120816they translate the same, you are low iq
>>585120984it's good, he's just an ESL
>>585121019And he doesn't know Japanese.
How do you answer
Oretsuba is kino. If you disagree, a pack of bandits should grape you.
>>585121121Yes *hugs her*
>>585120837This scene was absolutely necessary
>>585118862Glad you liked + saw it floodbro >>585119817The point is to be simple and universal. Character voice gets too specific since what you actually want to do is specify voices for each individual character on a specific project. I can superficially edit the prompt to mention it though just to make you feel better.>too longIt's the bare minimum of steps (minus the optional QC step) and it appears long because it is filled with images. It's written for someone totally new the process; for them it will be helpful to have so many images and for each step to be explained. Obviously someone who already is familiar with MTL will look at a step-by-step beginner guide and feel it is too long. >recommends deepseekThe guide explicitly says DeepSeek is not great at translation and is only being used because it's the best free model available through free and open means (e.g. not needing to make a GPT account or whatever else). Someone can play around with it at 0 cost or investment then move up to the big boy models after learning their way around LLM translation.
>>585121019I think you're throwing around ESL too often as an insult. It can only be meant as an insult though if you're a non-native speaker insisting on your machine translation, AIsir.
DeepSeek? How about you Seek what’s Deep in your anus? Plot twist: It’s my penis.
>>585121336Beware
>>585121650i'm talking about AIsir
>Utawarerumono spoiler>Shunya have to erase herself from existence to save everyone endingSo everything that happened during the past two games are irrelevant for uta 2 and 3? Or so it seems.
Aisir's worst trait is his obsessive criticism of all translations outside of his own, paired with his retard ESL brain making all of his TL evaluations complete dogshit. There's a reason people mock his MTL patches relentlessly while praising basically everyone else, yet he can't understand this process and still genuinely believes he has good takes on translation.
>>585119817>The entire thing is also way too fucking long and recommends deepseek of all models, you might aswell point people to google translateholy dishonest, but.
>>585121734who could've seen this coming
>>585120353
Why is Muramasa so good?

Pornoge always kamige: unless it was created by gaijin. Got it.
>>585121428>Glad you liked + saw it floodbroyeah, this is the main guide now, just leave the old one linked for reference. if i had to nitpick>but maybe in 2 years free models will be Opus 5.5 level1 year*, current deepseek is on the same level of the best closed model from 1 year ago, and that's assume the pace of improvement won't go vertical next year>Put simply, in the process of translating a game, the model will need to narrow its focus to a range of, let's say, 200-300~ nearby lines at any given time. The context window just doesn't allow it to "remember" the entire game at once. Meanwhile, an AI doing a QC pass doesn't need to focus on the actual act of translation, and may be able to widen its focus to keep track of 2,000~3,000~ lines at once.i don't really agree with this, but not because it's not needed and because ai does get lazy, but because this is (and should) be handled by the harness, not by the user. if you read thought while using codex, it will explicitely write that it translate in small chunk based on how much context it has and stuff. basically it knows better than you how much it can translate at once, so i don't think it's worth interfering. especially considering that the further we go the more these models/harness are improved towards autonomous goal completion, so even if now it may be needed for dumber models on shittier harness, repeating the prompt and instructing on the chunks thing definitely won't be needed next yearthe don't be lazy and translate manually is still needed tho, because if you ask to translate as a professional would, even sota models start using deepl and then doing a qc pass, kek
>>585121998While that's a nice drawing, it's physically impossible for the brick wall not to have collapsed like that (unless it's supposed to play in an US theme park, which sure isn't an uncommon environment for adventure games).
