If you want the better version of this VN. The one that is WAYY BETTER, download the restoration patch online (after getting the game). because these guy made this made a 18+ eroge into a all-ages VN. SO what happened is that they got rid of EVERYTHING, that could be considered not all ages. In so far as remaking scenes of hugging.

Careful though the restoration patch restores everything that MoeNovel took out (so it becomes 18+). It free because it was made by people, so buy the actual game.

Very Happy

I'd be fine if MoeNovel made an all ages version like the Japanese do. However they went beyond just cutting sex out and thats where I have a problem.

I will never give Moenovel my money unless they improve their translation quality and offer uncut versions. Like I just said in another thread, Moenovel went way too far with their cuts. I'll be sticking with Jast, Mangagamer, and Sekai Project for my visual novel purchases. I'll be sure to ignore anything from Moenovel.

Japan is getting an all ages version for console, and it got a CERO D.

The uncut version for any media should always be offered. Any edited version should be optional. IMO Moenovel really ruined their reputation from this. I suppose they must be hoping to reach out to casual gamers beyond the anime/VN community, enough to compensate for lack of core fans.

Oh, they are way more delusional than that. This is taken from an interview with the head of Moenovel.

Quote:

Saya : What do you think you have to do to appeal to the western market?


Quote:
Fujisan : Firstly, we need to try to expand the knowledge of its existence.
For example, we want 12 year old French girls who like anime to know about it as well, and make it so that there is no problem appealing it to these girls. Thus we will need to make it easy for such girls to tell their friends who also like the same type of anime.

I don't think I need to say how stupid and out of touch that is.

They even planned to give away 40 Steam keys of this visual novel for free if you supported them. I definitely buy this on the release day.

I thought this was the release that was utterly train wrecked. I'll pass on supporting this.
