Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien game

[Perishthethought]

The amount of text in the game is largely due to the excruciating detail into which Takayuki examines his surroundings, his friends, his thoughts and his feelings. The part where you've finished a day at school and he's describing how descending a hill uses different, rarely used muscles in your legs... Man oh man.

Still, he can be quite poetic and you get a good idea of the romanticised view of the world the game's Takayuki carries around with him. He really is a daydreamer (in fact, his regular, bizarre fantasy in the game is *someone* stood in a field beckoning him towards her) but the level of exposition he goes into about his circumstances (the slightest hesitation is leaped upon, a slight 'movement' from one of the girls is examined at length) is unbelievable. A conversation is usually 90% Takayuki examining how he feels and how the other party MIGHT feel, 10% actual speech.

I got text hooker, and I think I'm download the game, that is "Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien ~DVD Specification~", that is the dvd version of the game, right?

I really want to play this game, so I'm really hoping someone will be able to tell me what to do, like once the torrent finishes, how do you use text-hooker with it- or anything else I might need to know?

Atlas v.11 is a japanese to english/english to japanese program that works pretty well with text hooker and its alot better than babelfish, you will have to buy it, usually through their online store but I think Barns and nobels might have it as well under their language section.

Personally, its better to just learn the language, its probably faster than waiting for a translation cause just as a size comparsion, one of the longest games on PSone Xenogears, with probably the best story on the system, had you read through TONS of text, espcially on the second disk, its text totalled to about 1 MB, KGNE is several times that size. But the pictures are pretty expressive so you can get the gist of what happened if you use text hooker with your game for example it doesn't take a whole lot to figure out what this picture mean:

Voices basically. There was an additional scene if memory serves correctly, but on the whole, not much is different other than it contained full voices and was released on a DVD.

Such a game doesn't have a translation due to the complexity of it. There have been many who have tried, but none have succeeded.

I do believe, however, there are a few sites out there for translated walkthroughs. However you're really setting yourself up to be disappointed going that route.

[VoLT-ShocK]

Well... I should at least try... Damn... Or I can take another path... Learn Japanese... But Ill try web first! Thanks anyway!

[VoLT-ShocK]

Sorry... but I have another question... Do you know where I can get programm to extract text from this game? Or just name of that programm...
Opss... sorry I duble posted... I solved problem already... delete this post please.

ive known about kimi ga for a long time, since i couldent find anywhere to download the episodes from i watched the first 6 episodes in screenshots, then it got tedious, now im trying to follow the english version (rumbling hearts) now i want to play the pc game, but i dont kno where to get it (the PSO version will work for me too) is there a website where i can download it or any special import stores?

[DarkCntry]

Himeya is the only one I know of that is currently selling it and allows for outside of Japan shipping. Mind you, the game is not cheap by any standards, including that of the SFD.

As for obtaining Rumbling Hearts, my suggestion, TRSI is currently running a sale on all of FUNi's DVDs, 40% off. Rumbling Hearts is a part of this sale.

I bought this game from a little backwater shop in Narimasu (North West Tokyo), and even though it will install, the game will fail to start. I don't know why. I have the DVD Spec version. Is there a reason it wont work on my English computer?

EDIT: I sorted the little problem out I've emailed the dude that is translating the game to try and offer my assistance.

If going by the promises, then yes, there are people translating it. However, I wouldn't get your hopes up, as there have been people 'translating' the game since about the same time it was released, not one of them has got past the preliminary stages, let alone completing it.

[Masenko]

Well, I got an email reply informing me that they would love to have my help..! From what I see, translation is well underway; I think they're going to have me help clean up some of the translation in some places.

And we ARE working on it. Trust me, I just finished up for the night, been up all night working on the translation.

No offense, but I'll believe it when I see the patch 100% released.

^I'd like to know this one simple thing: Is the prologue of the game completely translated at least? I remember quite a ways back I thought about at least typing up the entire prologue and then at least translating the prologue for the game but at some point I just quit because I got annoyed with typing up that extremely long prologue.

It'd make me happy to know that at least someone had completed what I had attempted to do some time ago.

[Masenko]

Well, yes!
It's taking forever, but yes.
