01:30:45 <bay|Ota|MG> A: We plan to continue keeping our variety up 01:30:49 <bay|Ota|MG> we do plan to look at more story titles 01:30:57 <bay|Ota|MG> we are currently talking to several different companies to get a few of them 01:31:03 <bay|Ota|MG> we didn't get an answer in time for a panel 01:31:12 <bay|Ota|MG> just keep in mind, when you make a nukege, it goes to a different audience 01:31:19 <bay|Ota|MG> they are willing to pay the same amount, just a lot more 01:31:36 <bay|Ota|MG> we are planning to balance it out, just taking a lot longer 01:32:06 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Higurashi.. are you going to do more of it? 01:32:35 <bay|Ota|MG> A: ALready released first 8 chapters (ni and kai), rei...maybe.. there are issues with the music again, which people took issue with, and that's an issue which comes up often in doujin games, is use of music which isn't licensed 01:32:43 <bay|Ota|MG> and you have to go negotiate with each individual artists 01:32:45 <bay|Ota|MG> and that's a lot of work 01:33:04 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: PS2 version? 01:33:06 <bay|Ota|MG> A: going to stick with PC 01:33:40 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Would you be willing to translate otome or yaoi genre games? 01:34:03 <bay|Ota|MG> A: This was actually, when i was in japan in april, when i was talking our new coworkers, i brought it up, we would like to look into it 01:34:14 <bay|Ota|MG> a lot of the concerns are whether are to risk it now or wait for the market to grow 01:34:18 <bay|Ota|MG> we want to do it right 01:34:30 <bay|Ota|MG> we know a lot of people aren't exactly happy with jlist's title 01:35:26 <bay|Ota|MG> the problem with yaoi.. we're all guys...we don't know wha the yaoi crowd is interested, but we know it's specific 01:35:53 <bay|Ota|MG> the other thing, is they have very high profile male voice actors, and those don't come cheap 01:36:05 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Games on a handheld platform? 01:36:09 <bay|Ota|MG> A: Console is hard... unlike sony japan... 01:36:23 <bay|Ota|MG> if we're going to deal with sony or ms or steam.. a lot of the major game companies don't consider visual novels games 01:37:25 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Recently, a lot of my friends have been getting leaks and downloading... do you plan on tightening security? 01:37:33 <bay|Ota|MG> A: The problem with piracy is, you can't stop it, we've tried 01:37:41 <bay|Ota|MG> the only thing you can do is try and implement sturdier DRM 01:37:51 <bay|Ota|MG> but that costs more, and it tends to cause problems and irritate more users 01:38:10 <bay|Ota|MG> so trying to go with drm that's more than a simple activation will buy more bad will than what will be saved from piracy 01:38:16 <bay|Ota|MG> we'd love to do some but it's futile 01:38:34 <bay|Ota|MG> the best we could ask for is for our fans to show that they do like the games, they do like the market, and buy the games to help us get more good games out 01:39:02 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: I'm a fan of harem games, any chance that you will release a bigger selection of harem games... 12 or 13 girls... more than the typical 7 01:39:07 <bay|Ota|MG> A; Koihime has 26 01:39:12 <bay|Ota|MG> We'll look at them... 01:39:30 <bay|Ota|MG> we'll license them if we think it looks good and will work here 01:39:49 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Considering picking up Flyable heart and unisonshift? 01:40:05 <bay|Ota|MG> A: COnsidered, yes, talked about it before, but there is a lot of preparation and time spent talking with the company 01:40:16 <bay|Ota|MG> if you want to guide us, go onto our forums, and tell us which games and companys 01:40:26 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Since you are doing Clockup, any plans on Europhia? 01:40:30 <bay|Ota|MG> A: No comment 01:40:47 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Any words of wisdom for an aspiring visual novelist 01:40:56 <bay|Ota|MG> A: Pray your visual novel sells, you will need strong prayer 01:41:14 <bay|Ota|MG> the visual novels, it's very much a medium, i can't tell you how to break the story, you have to write3 the one you want to write and then hoping that the world likes it too 01:41:18 <bay|Ota|MG> find ways to advertise 01:41:27 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Alisoft, any acquistions there? 01:41:42 <bay|Ota|MG> A: we have talked with them... that will be a ltitle difficult to work with 01:41:48 <bay|Ota|MG> we know there is a demand for rance 01:41:58 <bay|Ota|MG> it's a bit hard to try and get them on board 01:42:25 <bay|Ota|MG> Q; (missed) 01:42:36 <bay|Ota|MG> A: But overdrive is pretty good, so it won't be long till we get the files 01:42:40 <bay|Ota|MG> we have to see how dear drops 01:42:48 <bay|Ota|MG> and if we get it,and there might be some person who might leak said information out 01:43:06 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: When can I expect games like Boob Wars on steam? 01:43:21 <bay|Ota|MG> A: To be fully honest, we have not asked them about H titles... 01:43:31 <bay|Ota|MG> but we have talked to them about other titles, and we haven't got an answer yet 01:44:51 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: My question concerns the cost of games, since i just bought ef which was $30(?) ...and otoboku is $50 01:44:22 <bay|Ota|MG> A: one of the first underlining things is, the baseline determine is the length of the game, that determines translation cost and the most of the costs we have to deal with 01:44:40 <bay|Ota|MG> after that, there are various other little factors that determine how it deviates from that 01:44:56 <bay|Ota|MG> keep in mind that ef is two games 01:45:15 <bay|Ota|MG> so in the end you will be paying more for both parts of ef than others 01:45:31 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Steam has the just started the new program to get games on it 01:45:35 <bay|Ota|MG> A: Am intersted when it starts up 01:45:44 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: When are you going to transfer Baldr Force 01:46:01 <bay|Ota|MG> A: (been harassing them for that) 01:46:14 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Heard of a new game, shonen dengeki stryker...when license it/ 01:46:17 <bay|Ota|MG> A: When we announce it?

01:47:28 <bay|Ota|MG> A: Yes, well, we are trying to keep the hard copies drm free, and that is one of the issues with kara no shoujo, they don't want the game out without it 01:47:41 <bay|Ota|MG> we're trying to keep the drm on the online copies so it's not true intrusive 01:47:49 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Remodel the site, everything comes over? 01:47:54 <bay|Ota|MG> A: Superficial, everything looks better 01:48:22 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Speaking of innocent grey, what happened to cartagra? 01:48:58 <bay|Ota|MG> A: that was the first fan translated game, they finished the t/l for catagra, so we'd like to release it.. 01:49:08 <bay|Ota|MG> one problem is kara no shoujo hasn't done as well as we'd like 01:49:27 <bay|Ota|MG> the big question that will come up is whether it would be catagra or kara no shouojo 2 01:49:32 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Voice patch for Kara no shoujo? 01:49:35 <bay|Ota|MG> A: Not going to happen 01:49:58 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: Curious, is the reason you haven't translated any of the other shuffle titles because of bad relations or? 01:50:13 <bay|Ota|MG> ticktak titles... 01:50:24 <bay|Ota|MG> A: We are considering looking at those titles, but I don't have anything I can say right now 01:50:39 <bay|Ota|MG> Q: What happened to the manga and anime section?
