All the games that I've been looking forward to have switched to current-gen, so it's pretty much a dying console for me.

That makes me wonder, why didn't MangaGamer translate names of the arcs? Someone who doesn't understand Japanese won't know what Onikakushi means.
The official English translated manga's also use the translated titles.

Maybe they are going to change the name of the store page when the visual novel gets released Friday?
Honestly, this is annoying. Why aren't they translating the tittles?

And I really, really hope that Onikakushi is not translated as "Demoned Away". It sounds so stupid, so dumb. "Spirited Away by a Demon" is the only way

I'll be probably sleeping before that too. I'm interested in the sprites/modding, so I'll most probably buy it tomorrow to at least look at those.

I'm definitely interested in sprites but the translation better be perfect. That's the important part for me.

Still can't get accustom to steroid-Tomitake. His sprite is a giant when compared to the others.

Wait, I thought that everyone was able to purchase Chap 1 today. See for yourself.

Eh, can't speak on the translation, seeing how I really haven't been paying attention to it at the moment. I'm more interested in the sprites, if anything else.

The Steam version is released a few hours later than the version you can download from MangaGamer's website.

I will say that the PE sprites sure did turned out lovely.

Edit: Despite the major breast attention and the lewd arrangement of Satoko's bloomers.

Seems like they changed "Higurashi" to "cicadas" in the new translation.

EDIT: Seems I was wrong, they only changed it in the prologue and follow it up in the next scene with an explication that Higurashi's are a type of cicadas.

EDIT 2: I have only read till midway of the scene where the reader meets Rena for the first time, but I have to say that the new sprite used to show Rena being troubled doesn't really convey that emotion very well.

Time to sleep now.

Oh, excited for this!
The Steam version is on a 10% discount until May 22nd.

Don't know if I'll buy it just yet, but definitely before that discount ends!

So they "fixed" the breasts for some sprites (Mion's casual+school ones), but not for others like the sports clothes ? What the hell MG.

I was just about to link that. Faulerro is one of the best abridgers out there, and he did a great job with Onikakushi. Watch it before his entire channel gets copyright claimed out of existence!

Bough it. After some checking, it seems like we can :
- replace sprites/backgrounds
- mod scenes to add new bgs/sprites and CGs
- replace music
- add voices (didn't test yet, but should work)
- create brand new scenes like the Alchemist's. Tough making choices features might be a bit complicate.
- making a language patch

It's really mod friendly. I had no problem to add a graphic full textbox either.
