The $1 tier isn't anything to write home about but the $4 tier, at the very least, is a fucking steal. Just my opinion though.įor those that aren't aware, MangaGamer and JAST USA are doing a Groupies Visual Novel (humble) bundle. Because of the different way the two game are set up, I kinda have my doubts a voice patch would really match up all that well.

(the orignal game uses photo's with image filters on them, which I actually never patched out 'cause I think the "real life" place/photo's are kinda nifty.)ĮDIT- Also, the voices weren't in the original PC game either. In fact, the Steam version ADDS stuff that wasn't in the original Japanese release (the new sprite art) and even added stuff that wasn't in the original US release (Some pieces of the music which they couldn't get the rights to before.)ĭon't get me wrong, the PS3 sprites are pretty cool, and when I bought the original US release, I used a patch to add those in myself, but the new sprites are pretty nifty too.įor the backgrounds, eh, I never really cared one way or the other. "incomplete" and "port" is pretty unfair since the original game WAS the PC version. Higurashi on Steam has gotten a fan patch to include the PS3's version voices, sprites, and backgrounds. God forbid if they officially localize Fate/stay night.Īnd fans continue to patch incomplete VN ports and make them better. Oh, and this was literally only one of two novels I was/would be willing to drop silly money on for swag and localization. Insane yes, but I loved the first novel that much.Īnd Sekai Projects are jerks and nowhere near as awesome as MangaGamer because a) they're selling Uncensored and Censored as separate products with only a 50% discount on the BackerKit if you buy both and b) unlike MangaGamer they don't give you a free Steam Key when you buy a better version. I spent $320 on this localization of four games (physical for keeping on my shelf all nice and pretty and digital uncensored), tapestry, and posters. The Labyrinth of Grisaia, the second novel, will be releasing later this year and The Eden of Grisaia will release early next year. The Uncensored version will also be getting all the new CGs that were in the Vita release the Censored version is based upon, and both versions are getting an updated/improved translation, so it's a clear improvement over the already available fan-translated PC version I've read. There won't be an unofficial patch to uncensor the Steam version either like some games have gotten, because the two are different games with different coding. Update: The Uncensored version of Fruit of Grisaia is arriving exactly one month after the Steam release of the Censored version.
