I still dont have a clue whats up with Winged Cloud and their Sakura games. First Sekai Project, then Mangagamer, then wanna do everything alone, then Sekai Project again and seems their next title will be selfpublished again...

So weird...Honestly, I can't even tell their games apart, anyways :/
The saddest part is, with the recent influx of Russian VNs, it can be said that Winged Cloud games are among top-tier releases.

I loved Part 1. I was going to play Part 2, but then Sekai Project announced that all three games are coming to the Vita. I'll wait for the complete collection there.

I'm definitely looking forward to it.
Wow, that's a long time to wait after that cliffhanger.
I'm used to cliffhangers by now, after so many visual novels and Trails titles under my belt.

I've actually had the beta downloaded for months and haven't got around to it. Maybe I'll finally read it, though it's been so long since I read the previous two parts that I should probably reread those.
Isn't their plan for a late 2017 launch?
It's just "2017" from the press release.

Nope. Fault MS2 ends in a big cliffhanger.

This is from their KS update:
So they are porting the PC games to unity first and only then will get it ready for console.

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Is Root Letter good? Was waiting for a PC release, but it doesn't look like that's happening... so, yeah.
I thought it was pretty good, even if the localization was indeed bland.

Actually that cliffanger affected me so much i never started part 2.
Will start Part 2 and chain Part 3 very soon.

started playing an old school VN/PnC called Divi Dead, not really sure what I'm in for besides the fact that it's mystery/horror.(felt like I had exhausted this genre, i looked long and hard for more translated games)

Man, I remember the c's ware days. Never played that one, but I wanted to. I tried playing the Eve games that came out in English, but the translations were so bad that I couldn't do it.

I remember playing Divi Dead for a couple hours before moving on to other stuff.
Don't remember anything about it but I also didn't exactly give it much time.

World End Econ part 3 is out and yet there's been no updates to it from when I downloaded the beta in September? Did they release it unchanged months later right before the Steam holiday sale? It even seems that the TIPs are still not translated. Then again this is the company that released three games in one day right before the Steam Autumn sale.

Amazing.
Why couldn't they have just released this months ago if that was the case?
Basileus777

I checked the installation directory and there's one file that was modified in December, so they must have pushed an update last week and I missed it. It's still disappointing that they can't even launch with everything translated. Apparently the TIPS will be patched in later.

Can anyone remind me what games Sekai Project have said they were going to bring to Vita in the past?
From what I understand:
- Fault Milestone One & World End Economica both had it on Kickstarter and they're currently being handled by Mighty Rabbit/Limited Run Games.
- Narcissu has also been promised through this partnership.
- The Grisaia Trilogy stretch goal was met on Kickstarter but nothing has happened since then.
- Root Double suffered the same fate as Grisaia.
- They got involved with Quantum Suicide's Vita release and we haven't heard anything since.
Are the above correct? Anything I'm missing?

Root Double hasn't exactly "suffered the same fate", it always had an estimate of March 2017 delivery. In the last update on November 30th, they said Vita news should be coming in December once they get approval. (Not sure if that's going to happen at this rate, though...)

Grisaia's port has had work done on it, Doddler tweeted about it a bunch in the past, but I have no idea what it's current state is. Root Double's port was stated to be at least a year away from the PC version, so while there has been no news of it it isn't late yet.
Rabi Ribi is also supposed to come to the Vita, but that's a relatively new announcement.
And I'm not even sure Audi (the guy running most of the console port stuff at SP) is even still employed there considering all the staff shakeups they've had and their unwillingness to talk about them. The staff page has been down for months and talking about it was one of their "don't even ask" points in their AMA.

Everything is fine. It's all just conspiracy theories being spread by their haters. The skies are always clear and perfect at Sekai Project.
Fault Milestone One is the only one being handled by Mighthy Rabbit.
I'm still there. I don't check this thread as much due to battling pneumonia and overseas work in Japan recently.

It's good to see you're still around. Sorry to hear about your health, best wishes in your recovery.
Thank you! I will be back here to joy and annoy y'all once my workload calms down a bit. Rest assured the listed projects are moving along as scheduled. There'll be an update before New Years.

This...this really makes me wanna throw money on it now.
B-but I have to be strong, R11, WEE and Higu 3/4 are more than enough to read for months.
Maybe.
On a side note, Sekai sales >>>> MG sales, all their good stuff does not pass 30% ;__;
So I guess Steam allows simple nudity, but just not outright sex scenes? Or just not explicit sex? Not sure how detailed Kindred Spirits got, knowing as how that was a big surprise to many.
Chairmanchuck

Nudity is okay and even sex.
I mean look at the Witcher sex scenes. You cant see genitals, but everything else. Boobs, having sex in more positions etc.
Gahkthun got on Steam entirely uncensored, and that had far too many pointless sex scenes.
Also tentacle rape :/
The rule seems to be as long as you don't show genitals it's fine.

Thanks for the responses. So that's a bummer. Didn't realise SP had a 'guy running the console port stuff' and that he might not even be there anymore. Also didn't realise Mighty Rabbit weren't handling WEE and Narcissu.
Thought we'd turned a corner and things were progressing
. Still, having a person on Twitter to follow who'd been porting them is cool. Thanks!Fata Morgana is 17 on Steam now, there are literally no excuses to not get it:

Audi is still there, he's on gaf and is the person who replied to that post of mine. My worries there did not bear out.Thanks for the responses. So that's a bummer.

Oh yeah, I forgot about Gahkthun. That's probably the most extreme example, then.
