is it good or bad english?

According to the result, it has a bad translate, muy mal

Finally? This company releases like 2-3 games a month. They're not really in English. It's Engrish at best.

It's readable, but the translation is still bad, especially inconsistent character names. They could have just hired someone to do a proofread of the script and fix these basic errors with a simple text replacement, but they didn't.

Agree and there is lot of text not translated in Hope route.

They don't actually translate anything, they just run the script through a machine translator. SakuraGame is infamous for doing this. It's common knowledge among most VN fans. They can release so many games because they have no translators. They are a ♥♥♥♥ company and you should know buy their games. It just supports their twisted business practices.

This exactly. I wish SakuraGame would die off already. They're a blight in the western VN community.

0_0 relax least they translated even if horrible, its far better then 0 translation. Not like it's EA/Bungie.

"extra" is not in english

Well, bad translation is better than none.

I'm not native english speaker and don't see much problem with translations. Reminds me of childhood, when in late-90ies we had pirated games on CD's that was machine-translated to russian. Those games was a lot more difficult to comprehend.

PS. I wonder how charaters was orginally called and why they translated them at all. If I listen to voiceovers MC seems unchanged from chinese (voice lines call him Hu Muse), Clara Liu was Liu Hoi, Jade Fang was Fang Ling, Hope Chu - Chu Wang, and Eureka was called Pingyen

There are some bugs in the game. And you need to choose "chinese language'' in the options to avoid these bugs...

What's funny is seeing a girl (an obvious girl, not a trap) is talking about being a better son and brother, and your brain screams. The "He" and "She" always getting messed up, and it just makes reading all that much more difficult. Especially when a group is in discussion, it's hard to follow the conversation when the words aren't just wrong, but very wrong. Whatever software they are using to translate, it sucks.

Nevertheless, I suppose "Engrish" is better than nothing.

good luck!
