Maitetsu Fixes and Updates

In the videogame industry, the developer is subordinate to the publisher, not the other way around. .

At first this didn't seem to make any sense to me either, but after seeing how Lose designs their H content (it's generally not integrated into the story - you just unlock H-scenes after finishing a route) there may be some reasoning behind this (dubious though it may be). I think most people who appreciate H will appreciate the presence of ecchi scenes in the story, but from a developer's perspective they then need to make one version of the story with ecchi content, and one without (since the H is after the story, so that's just a matter of unlocking some menus); so perhaps they decided that it's better to just have a "clean" story, with everything ecchi or H unlocked at the very end. That would slightly reduce dev costs and supposedly allow people to buy the full version even if they're on the fence about ecchi stuff. Considering that all-ages versions of games tend to come out much later than the initial H release this could theoretically allow some extra day-one purchases from people who don't want ecchi but also don't want to wait a year. As previously mentioned it's a dubious argument at best, but the only one I could think of that makes any sort of sense.

I think this actually makes a ton of sense.... for Lose's FUTURE games. But going back and censoring the adult version of a game that already has both its R18 and an all ages release? That is just stupid, and doesn't save them work like you suggested because they ALREADY DID THAT WORK YEARS AGO.

Sekai Project already has a questionable reputation in the VN community thanks to numerous controversies stemming from their poor localizations and confrontational staff members. By agreeing to publish this game and profiting off of this release, Fakku automatically assumes responsibility for any issues that Sekai Project creates with this release.

If Fakku wanted to avoid putting their name on the line, they should've known better than to be Sekai Project's publisher.

Speaking of Sekai Project, apparently they just laid off the entire office and closed down. Mysteriously.

It looks like it was just the marketing/PR team, while I feel bad for the parties involved hopefully this does lead to more transparency between Sekai and consumers and less of the bait and switch feelings and lack of info regarding critical game bugs and status on their fixing. Again it sucks that they were fired but I think new talent is in order for the company.

Well dang, that sucks for them, but I honestly don't feel bad for them

Literally my wife you're talking about who has to now find a new job. :/ I get that some of you dislike Sekai Project, but please don't turn this into a thread of personal attacks against people just because they worked at a specific company. These people who were let go had zero power over what decisions were made in regards to the actual localization process. They were simply trying to do their jobs to the best of their abilities with the hands they were dealt.

This thread is about the Maitetsu fixes and updates, please do not make it go off-topic into a Sekai Project hate thread. That is not what this thread is for.

Does there happen to be a forum where We can suggest actual good loli stuff to Fakku? Rather than this market just being random? If You want to sell loli VNs just ask lolicons what they want, that's my last point here.

This does not change anything on Fakku/SP/Lose's end. My point still stands. Not supporting this title.
