Honestly the MTL haters baffle me. I get why they hate MTL but there are so many games out there that have never received a translation or never will. What's the solution for that? If we can't have someone manually go in and translate every line? We finally are making some real progress with AI on getting some actual readable text but all they can do is point out the small flaws and recognize none of the progress that's being made.

The reality is that some games will never receive a translation unless we can somehow automate the process. Hell this game is 4 years old, short, with a fairly popular mainline game to boot and it didn't even get a translation thread. What's going to happen with all the other less popular games?

It sure is. There're many time that i keep scrolling through only to find these same old in the completed category. I somehow though that maybe this is already at the peak of japanese ero game until i realized site like dlsite, anime sharing, etc... There are many hidden gem that i sure will fit many people taste but how can it get manually translated if no one outside of japan know it?

I mean, can't folks at least do the ChatGPT, THEN clean up the text errors? At least try putting in the effort themselves and make sure to send out a clean game instead of making folks study the machine language.

It's as if the first game didn't torture the player enough.
I legit got heart palpitations for a second from remembering, playing the main game without understanding NTR.
Is this what ptsd is? Lmao.
Hard skip.
Blue haired princess was the only decent non hoe girl.
And she got the brutal ending.

Fuck.
I'm gonna go touch grass now.

I do, you don't see a lot of the stuff that gets cleaned up in the final release. Not only by the tool itself but by me.

Everytime I create a new MTL one of the things I do is find a bad translation and slightly edit the prompt or code to see if I can fix it. Its how the tool has improved so much since the first game I did.

Then you do it? I don't make money on these, hell I don't even break even lmao. The cost I charge is literally the cost of the API to translate everything. I make these games playable and I'm not about to edit every single piece of line because that takes days, weeks, and sometimes months.

I created the tool, it took me a long time. I've put the work into developing the tool and having it fix and filter as much as it could to output a decent translation. I take my time to edit the menu, pictures, and some garbage text. But my goal here isn't to create a decent edited translation, my goal is to get the cleanest possible automated MTL I can.

If it bothers you so much get off your high horse and go translate the game yourself.

Also here's my API usage for the month to show what I'm usually getting charged every month.

This is a really DUMB question but I gotta ask anyway. Is this a sequel to Dark Hero Party and how connected are these two games?

i hated the first game playing it through it sucked ass so to see this kinda sucks ass as well. And tbh idm MTL since its better then getting no translation at all so thanks for getting the game to us.
Playing it without any translation is better than mtl even if you don't understand Japanese.

how can you play a game when you don't even know what option to choose and a slight bit of the story? I played raw game once, and the torture of keep using the phone for google translate, and the need to memorize what option does what, I don't want to go through that again

because it is the same girl. This is a spin-off of the main game that takes place after Endings 1 or 2 of the game, where Imos runs back to his village after getting cucked, and Thrash defeats the Demon Lord. Aina still becomes the meat toilet, but now players get to see her unfortunate ending.
so yeah, only one ending and its bad.
Hmm? Did you quote the wrong person, or misread my post?

my favorite part about the forever relitigated mtl debate is everyone against mtl points to the prose it stereotypically makes

however

that just assumes the japanese script also isn't a complete trainwreck motherfucker have you clicked most of the english-first projects on this site a game having an artist on board doesn't mean it fills up all the other production value criteria, like a decent writer
