Is this with the patch?
If yes, I have to wonder if this shit is untranslating itself because I swear I've updated this like 2 times already.

It can go four ways:
- Male and female MC stay uncorrupted and in love with each other.
- Male MC cheats on female MC, who remains faithful.
- Female MC cheats on male MC, who remains faithful.
- They're both corrupted and go for their respective demon.
Is there no ending where the male MC resist everything but the FMC gets fully corrupted?
It won't replace pros, but will replace the hacks at this quality level. Considering that they're already scraping the bottom of the barrel for mainstream english games, there's definitely room for it.
Well yeah, but even pros will probably use AI to work faster.

Nah. As I've stated in another thread, MTL at the quality that dazedanon's pumping out is at least usable for some stuff, but not others. A pro would use it to brute force things like item lists, menus, and so on. They wouldn't use it for most descriptions, or dialogue(the bulk of translating work). It would save some time, but not be a big help to them. It's more helpful for fan translators that are less skilled. I don't pooh pooh his work on this. It's definitely a step up, even if it still has a long way to go.
Edit: Another thing: MTL at this stage struggles to get nuance, puns, and more esoteric references. Games reliant on that will be mangled.
Idk why but i play on android both maldives and joiplay dont display sex scenes just black with Pink text...
anyone knows, why, when I input 3760 for 2nd barrier, nothing happens?

For the fallen sex ending (Just one of Sadie's women) you need to think of Sadi during the Hayato sex. Which itself also require that you have had sex with him, I think by not resisting during Manipulation spell by Krone (the Witch).
If you never had sex with him at all, there is no "Think of Sadi" during the Hayato sex. And if you don't think of Sadie, even if you had gone full corrupted before Hayato returns and then used cheat to raise the corruption back to 100, it won't trigger.
That's likely the "correct" answer for "Sadie's treasures". I say "correct" because you're meant to fail, but the plug-in the dev used for that question/barrier likely needed to be coded with a "correct" answer. What likely happened is that they coded the "correct" answer to 3760, but didn't put in a scene juuuust in case someone did put in the "correct" code. So nothing get triggered, and you're stuck until you enter an incorrect combination.
(It's like how the IF formula in Excel is coded to IF(CONDITION;THEN;ELSE), and you put in IF(A1=3760;;"Start Next Scene") as the formula)
Not even that. It still have issues with pronouns. This game, for example, often refers to Sadi as a "she". Even consistency is an issue in the game, as Sadi is sometimes written as Sadi and Sadie. AI still doesn't solve that either, since AI have limited context it can keep, and it would otherwise have to guess (say, if Sadi is a male or female's name).
Ultimately, they're all still just a crutch. You need to understand the context of what's happening to actually make a translation that isn't blind idiot translation if people pay even a little bit of attention to what's happening on screen. At best, it's a decent crutch that helps you guess the context, without having to manually translate each lines first, before you do 1-3 more passes to wrinkle out the obvious wrong stuff based on past, present, and future context of the lines.
The danger of it is that, instead of actually understanding what is conveyed, each words and each sentences together, in the original language- your first impression of it is a machine's impression. If you don't double check it manually, word-by-word and sentence-by-sentence in the original langauge, there's always a chance you never saw what was lost during the machine conversion. And at that point, you might as well just do manual translation from the start - nothing really beats properly experiencing and understanding the original work in its pure form and then properly translating everything with actual understanding of how the language and story works.
ofc, for a fap game, an edited MTL where nothing is too blind idiot to distract you from the ero is good enough. Good enough to fap means good enough translation (shrug). I can tolerate the inconsistencies and obviously wrong in context, so long as it's technically readable sentence and there's not a single "bread bread bread" to be seen.
