JS pantsu photography sim coming to steam in english

There's no store page which is a red flag, it means it wasn't submitted for review yet or it's still getting reviewed.
Good luck with the review, this character is in 5th grade.

>>714974146
at least it's coming to switch right? They wouldn't announce it if it wasn't already approved right?

The original version was released on PS4 but censored and they just stopped releasing the new versions on PS platforms entirely, LoveR Kiss and this new version aren't on PS4/5

>>714974336
It's easier to release a game with schoolgirls in it on Switch (Japan, not the West anymore, but they can bake the English option in the JP version) than Steam so it should be able to release there.
It may have to remove the touching feature they added in the 2020 Switch version though.

>>714974146
They released Lollipop Chainsaw on DLsite so even if it gets blocked they still have op

>>714974513
they still have options

>>714974513
>>714974146
Any ripped 3d models ?

>>714974439
How do you even go about censoring a game like this?

>>714974673
You can't to the extent Steam or Nintendo West tells you (make them taller, change their facial structure, remove the school from the game) without basically scrapping the game.

>>714974659
Holy shit this in the game ? Better not let Mary see this

>>714974673
The PS4 version had bizarre skirt physics that made it like they were made of lead or something and would just never go up, and didn't include a bunch of costumes

>>714974997
Yeah the gold bikini was free golden week DLC

>>714974439
The original version was even in a PlayStation Japan showcase (mind you they already started the censorship by this point, but at least SIE Japan had a fragment of influence left)

>>714974997
>>714974997
Sony are anti-succubus

>>714974513
oh wow, they did
I'd prefer DMM since they usually don't DRM stuff, but godspeed with whatever

>>714974513
DLsite has its own launcher with OCR translation stuff now too which is pretty handy.

>>714974513
>>714975346
Its great but DLsite has strong region block.

>>714975351
LunaTranslator had more OCR option over DLsite build in though

>>714975307
Any way to play this game right now ?? With Emulation of course

>>714975563
The usual switch emulator can do the job though you will suffer low fps by design

>>714975482
>Motherfucking Lollipop Chainsaw is a region blocked game
We need to send every credit card executive to the god damn public gallows.

>>714975751
I dont follow. Did Lollipop Chainsaw on steam is censored compared to DLsite version ??

>>714975551
Yeah, ideally you'd want to use LunaTranslator (or ReiPatcher) for hooks anyways; the DLsite one is just nice for casual stuff since it's less effort.

Is this 2010 ??
Are we back in time ?

>>714975864
It's not. But if you try to access the page for Lollipop Chainsaw on DLsite you get an error saying the game isn't available in your region. They must have blocked it because of schoolgirls or something. Which is absolute clown world buffoonery.

>>714973949 (OP)
I wonder if censored. Enchanted release might mean censored these days.

Just seeing the loli route on youtube. No way they gonna allow this on steam.

>>714976135
I'm seeing it fine. What third world shithole are you from?

>>714974146
Sex!

>>714976295
Dragami Games did a big "we're anti censorship!" campaign for Lollipop Chainsaw, but to be honest that was a game I was never expecting to get hit. This is the game that'll give them a real test.

>>714976298
The main story stuff is tame and wholesome, the Loveplus knockoff dating sim mode and photography mode is where all the degenerate stuff is at

Plus it sounds like this new version is upping the photography mode to be even more degenerate

>>714976402
You do know that yoshimi got kicked out and isn't there anymore right?

>>714976334
Not him but it's blocked here in Europe.
Does it have the "petite" (formerly loli) tag? That tag is mass blocked in certain regions.

>>714976528
Genre tags?

Genre
Zombie School / Academy Blonde Hair Twin Tail

>>714976504
It would be a shame to see them capitulate to censorship just because he's not there anymore.

Wait a second this is SWITCH and NOT switch 2

>>714976717
Switch 2 is the new WIIU

Last thread I was in died so
>>714934840
>Are these related to the recolove games on vita?
Same staff, spiritual sequel. Rinze is basically copypasted over.

>>714975215
If we count Recolove this series STARTED on the damn Vita so it's such clown shoes that Sony literally drove an exclusive away from their platform with their stupid censorship.

Weekly Undergarment Change
>Basically a weekly undergarments schedule for the girls. They also wear “slightly sexier” underwear on the weekends, but this is exclusive to the Nintendo Switch version.

Weekly Undergarment Change
>Switch: Included, the girls change undergarments Monday through Friday
>PS4: Not included

Undergarment Details
>Switch: Patterns depicted with more details
>PS4: Plain (unchanged from LoveR)

The official LoveR twitter
https://twitter.com/SweetOne_KG/status/1222458521460961280
Translation:
>PS4 version of LoveR Kiss, chest does not shake and the skirt shakes to the extent that you cannot see the inner. I would like to ask for your understanding as I cannot explain the reason and circumstances.

>>714962572
>>Notably, this marks the first time that LoveR Kiss will be available in English. We are proud to share that Frontline Gaming Japan worked closely with Dragami Games on the English translation, with the core translation of approximately 750,000 Japanese characters handled entirely by Frontline’s naturalized Japanese editor-in-chief Johann C.K., a long-time advocate for better translations of Japanese media. The translation was completed within a tight schedule, with a focus on delivering an authentic and faithful representation of the original script.
>That sounds good but there aren't any examples yet. If there aren't any honorifics it's already failed.
Still no examples but the translator said
https://x.com/Johann_CK/status/1942931523206042106
>Honorifics are left in and no "Americanisms" are used in my translation. (I am not American but a naturalized Japanese, and our company is based in Tokyo)

This might actually be good.

I remember it was either this series or some adjacent series that got an official vtuber
she was super cute for that short duration

>>714977032
>chest does not shake
I saw some jiggling in the new game trailer, isn't that a good sign?

>>714973949 (OP)
Why did you leave out that is region locked to japan only?

>>714977365
It's this series, and they still use her as the social media mascot

It's a deaged magical girl loli version of the protag's little sister (explicitly blood related because fuck western incest taboos)


this isn't actually making it to steam is it

>>714977587
Where was that said? You can't even region lock a Switch game anyway, that's not a thing.

>>714977556
That's about the censored PS4 version retard, they got so pissed about the censorship they literally stopped supporting the PS releases and took the whole series to the switch two games ago

>>714977587
>english/chinese
>region locked
retard

>>714977679
>That's about the censored PS4 version retard
That's my point, people are concerned the new version is going to be a revert back to PS4 censorship, but the trailer still had the newly added jiggle.

>>714975665
odd, tried using eden and it acuallty give a nice 60fps on VN mode this time
could been the fast CPU mode doing the job

>>714977660
>>714977679

Someone rip the fucking 3d model with all the costumes (especially the loli) if its ever comes out please.........

>>714977851
>Sal Romano

>>714977851
Circle the part where it says its region locked

>>714976602
Weird, maybe they just don't sell it to EU customers then?

>>714978219
OOF You're in some deep cope, anon. Care to share a little?

>steam

Anyone have those “into trash” memes for me?

>>714974146
they'll be fine if they were referring to japan's steam specifically

if they actually bothered to submit it to the NA steam for review i'd be astounded at their courage

>>714976602
>School
Yep that'll activate the credit card enforced DLsite blocks.

>>714976717
Nintendo didn't widely release dev kits until after the console released so most devs haven't been able to develop for it yet

>>714978576
It doesn't work that way otherwise all Japanese devs would submit to "Japan's Steam" and their crackdown on otaku games would already be dead.
It's -rumored- that if you submit a game with no English support then it will never land on Mary's desk but I don't know how verifiable that is. Also we know this has English support.

>>714978760
How about adding English support post-launch like certain games do?

>>714979000
they would miss the sweet first week sale they could had with english

>>714978760
shit, didn't know that. yeah they might be fucked

>>714977192
>those twittards asking the translator questions like he's a dev

Physical please

get back to me when someone ports that upskirt game with the absurdly long name

>>714979120
I feel like the main audience for this game wouldn't mind just buying it on release anyways or waiting a few weeks.
I guess it is an issue in terms of getting normalfag eyes by being on the top new releases or whatever though.

>>714979000
If Valve realizes you're only delaying English to get around Mary they will find a way to fuck with your game or even just dole out a blacklist

reminder
>I do translation work for small Asian devs and NoA AND NoE both pressure them to self-censor by blocking sales in regions entirely if they don't immediately pass a content test, the conditions for which are completely opaque and unknowable.

>Games I've worked on got ratings from PEGI and ERSB fine only for NoA/NoE to block them from being sold in the NA/EU regions.

>This makes devs paranoid and over-censor their stuff from the get-go. And by not telling anyone what the conditions are, Nintendo doesn't actually dictate what content is acceptable or not so they can argue that they aren't censoring anything on a technicality.


this is going to be censored or the switch release is going to be JP only

>>714979831
I mean now that the translator has admitted on twitter that the work has been translated, sure, but otherwise there's no way for them to "realize" it unless Valve assumes malice on part of the developer, which they shouldn't unless the developer makes a public statement about it.
Regardless I don't think Valve would fuck with your game, at the most they would be extra thorough with any other games you submit.

>>714980302
>translator has admitted on twitter
what kind of mindrot is this? the press releases and trailers all say it's in english

Is it really about pantsu photos? Ill buy day 1 if it is.

>>714980620
No, it's also about micro bikini and succubus photos

Nice doujin. Still doubt the game gonna ever released on steam though

>>714980620
it get pretty in depth about this part

>>714980513
I mean there's a difference between releasing in English vs adding (or wanting to add) English later.
Plenty of Japanese and Chinese games release without English support but state they will add English later.

>>714973949 (OP)
J...S you say?

can't tell which character i was the most into, only got as far as the prologue. i liked the sister wearing nothing but a bath towel flirting with you in her intro scene at least

D3P is owned by Bamco. You can already guess why there's no sequel.

>>714983572

>>714973949 (OP)
This guy did the English translation for the game, he's Japanese and seems to know what's up.

>>714983828
nah

>>714983674
They keep releasing games full of fanservice though

Doofus here. What game, or game adjacent thing on DLsite or the like has the MOST different kinds of underwear?

>>714983674
They're letting D3P dip back in to Onechanbara esque games at least

>>714983828
No, Japan only
It would sell a fuckton nowadays.

>>714979723

Would they even be interested in a game like this to begin with?

Amazon and Walmart are developing their own crypto, maybe that could act as competition?

>>714984740
A couple of politicians have been pushing hard on that, they literally went to the US to question the US side and got the definitive answer that it's not the Americans forcing restrictions on JP companies, and now they're pressing the JP side and might slap them with a bunch of retaliatory regulations and fines for breaching the constitution.

>>714984740
Kishida is going on his based arc

>>714984909
Doubt it, if those cunts are getting into crupto is because they want to control it.

>>714984909
Japan already has shit like Paypay and Toracoin which can be used on Fantia and DMM and DLsite

>>714984825
They'd probably have been able to do it if it was a woman groping a woman. Not sure what games even in the 2010s had a man groping a woman on screen like that.

Just let me us my goddamn mastercard in fantia again.
I miss my 3D girls...

>>714984535
There's a lot of teenagers and boomers buying porn games on steam (although the boomers mostly buy those shitty WEGs). I guess I wouldn't necessarily call the teenagers normalfags but they're not terminally online weebs like us.
>>714985025
Unfortunately I don't think that'll stop DLsite from blocking haram games outside of Japan/Asia; 2/3rds of my wishlist is straight up missing at the moment.

>>714985249
I certainly hope so, but the fact that they're blaming the Nip division is fucking bullshit, those kikes have been doing stuff like this for decades.
Tons of 2D western porn sites and E-Books and have been affected for years due to their policies.

They can't even depict incest or they get shafted by payment processors.

>>714985591
>Unfortunately I don't think that'll stop DLsite from blocking haram games outside of Japan/Asia; 2/3rds of my wishlist is straight up missing at the moment.
That has nothing to do with visa and mastercard, you have the BBC's retarded moral outrage journalism about Rapelay to thank for that, to this day nips still talk about the need for "zoning" to keep foreigners away from eroge.

>>714985843
This is a really common tactic for US companies operating in Japan, Twitter infamously had only tiny Japanese offices who had nothing to do with the actual business and basically only existed to have an elderly japanese man dogeza and apologize to any angry Japanese people demanding to know why the ad they already paid real money for was removed for "inappropriate content" even though the ad was for an all-ages text novel (this actually happened)

don't worry the game also has smelly hags

Sounds oddly woke. But still better than what we usually get.

>>714986745
They should just upload the steam version with every model replaced with her and replace the school with an empty void. Put the patch on their website.

Why do the girls look like marionette dolls?

>>714986897
>"wokalizers are racists!"
>Sounds oddly woke
do you have brain damage anon?

>>714986897
Its not really woke when Japan and its people genuinely are getting racist treatment from westoids.

The Steam version's probably going to have marginally better graphics but the switch release lets you use gyroscope controls for the photography stuff so its like a pseudo-AR thing where you're actually pointing the camera and moving it to get angles

>>714985994
>That has nothing to do with visa and mastercard
Yes it does, firstly this happened within the last few years (Rapelay was a decade and a half ago), secondly one workaround they tried was to change the tag from "loli" to "petite", thirdly the games that are blocked in my region are all the "petite" tagged ones (flat chest and slender are okay, as are games featuring lolis that aren't tagged, as are the rape and abuse games) and fourthy DLsite tried to get around it by requiring users to buy DLsite points indirectly and there would be no reason to do so unless it was payment processor-related.

>>714984909
The only payment system company I can think of that could realistically challenge Western credit card companies is China's UnionPay, which is already the largest payment service company in the world.
But I wouldn't be surprised if the US decided to place sanctions on them if they started challenging Visa/MC's global duopoly

The "economic impact" there is the main reason it hasn't been repealed all this time, the JAV industry sends their movies off to approved agencies that apply the mosaics and those agencies pay a lot of money to the government. Getting rid of mosaics means axing free government income.

orange man is a leftist who is putting 25% tariffs on japan imports so this game will be 25% more expensive though

>orange man is a leftist who is putting 25% tariffs on japan imports so this game will be 25% more expensive though
The current JP PM is a center left globalist, he deserves it and most of Japan hates him and his party.

>>715016953
NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's over

>>715015919
Because they agree with it, in fact, they're probably the ones giving the orders themselves. Notice how all of the blocked/censored games are in all regions outside of Asia. They're also pushing restrictions in Asia/Japan as well. I will be surprised if any of the original Switch-exclusive content from >>714977032 makes it in this version, as Nintendo no longer allows anything that Sony doesn't, anywhere. At the very least, the original had touching mechanics where you could poke the girls, and in the Switch version, their breasts. That's 99% going to be axed from this version, at least on Switch. We have no less than four cases from last year where such mechanics were censored or removed from similar games.

This game, Prison Princess Trapped Allure, was only released on Switch in Japan, by the way. Every platform has become ultra-hostile to these 2010s otakucore games. Even GOG. As another posted said, this will be a true test for Dragami. Tokyo Clanpool got fucked by every platform it tried to release on and I'm half-expecting this to get the same treatment. I am almost certain this is going to be banned from Steam at the very least (they banned a censored version of Tokyo Clanpool). I don't know why Dragami is even bothering with them.

>>715017879
If it turns out that Nintendo was the one behind all this credit card shitshow I hope they get raped so hard by sanctions that they go bankrupt.

>>715017879
As an addendum, the publisher said Tokyo Clanpool came within a hair's breadth of just being completely canceled because of how much difficulty platforms were giving them. So consider that a worst case scenario. The system is completely broken. It was mostly unheard of for games that already passed ESRB/PEGI/CERO standards to be censored this way throughout the 2000s and 2010s, yet now it's commonplace and especially for Japanese games. Who let these platforms implement these policies? Why are they being allowed to get away with it? They shouldn't be allowed. "Private company" my fucking ass, not when you're squatting on 90% of the market and no one can feasibly compete with you, you should have an obligation to give development partners a fair shake.

>>715017879
I keep forgetting about Hundred Line. They even censored the homo content.

Even if you do the nips are clueless and go "hey wokalizer why did our game do so bad" and just take whatever answer they get at face value "oh it was racist incels who boycotted the game because they think the heroine is cringe for being a loli, you must make your next game's heroine a smelly hag to sell better"

I'm considering a Steam ban inevitable, so I imagine they will be forced to out of necessity. Problem is that DLSite will likely region-lock it and DMM certainly will (their whole PC game storefront is blocked outside of Japan). I'd encourage them to tap JAST or MangaGamer for a western release, they've taken games from qureate and being otaku-catered can be trusted to not tamper with the content.

Are they even going to release this in the West since everything I can see makes it seem like this may be a Venus Vacation/Venus Vacation PRISM scenario that the game will be on Steam, but probably region locked to Japan/Non-Western countries.

>>715020490
It may as every other game in this pseudo-series has not left Japan, but this is the first game to have English options, so they may be pivoting. Even if they do region-lock it though, it won't save it from a Steam ban.

I need Photo Kano-Kiss for PC with VR desu...

The idea that Japanese porn may become entirely uncensored in my lifetime is quite wild.

i need to learn how to buy games off the Japanese E-Shop, because this is not arriving on the US E-Shop anytime soon.

>>715025541
Make a Japanese account then. It's not hard.

>>715001385
I'll be honest I couldn't tell the difference for a few minutes

i never felt more dumb than when i tried to figure out the six girls' names in kanji only to open a game menu a minute later that had them written in roman letters

>>715026435
Kanji names are retarded anyway, there's literally no way to know what they actually are without it either being spelled out in kana or hearing it said, because no matter what kanji it is it could be read in multiple different ways. At best you can assume common cases.

>>715027019
That's true of roman names too though, even for seemingly simple common western names you can't know if they're being pronounced the English or French way without just knowing.

>>715027503
Seeing Jeanne and not being sure if it's said jean or joan is not the same as seeing 大将 and not knowing if it's Daisuke or Hiromasa or Masayuki.

Oh, LoveR Kiss on Switch is another game that gives Dark Rose Valkyrie, the Gal*Gun games and Blue Reflection a run for its money in that aspect I see.

Different designs for the panties or underwear. Dedication, heck, Final Fantasy Type-0 did it with the limitations of the PSP.

Tell me Bullet Girls is coming back, I haven't gotten a chance to play the old ones and I really want to!

>>715029943
Nah, just port BG1 and 2. Phantasia dropped the ball.

>>715027846
That's the easy example, the fun shit is the correct Dutch pronunciation of Anders being so non-phonetic in English that localizer fucking shits just change the name entirely rather than hope Americans will understand it or Chinese romanization being borderline random.

>>714973949 (OP)
I saw this game while browsing the Gematsu news section and almost dismissed it as some tame VN shit, but this thread convinced me otherwise. If by some miracle this releases uncensored I'll be sure to support it because we need more games and (seemingly) English translations like this.

>>715029943
No, Bullet Girls was developed by Shade/D3Publisher and as far as anyone can tell Shade is dead. This upcoming game by qureate is probably the closest you'll get.

>>714977365
Is that Mai?

>>715031786
i love qureate so much it's unreal

>>715030006
Phantasia had the best interrogation scenes tho

>>715031939
But the rest of the game is unsatisfying compared to those two.

>>714976334
I live in America (Ohio) and am getting the same error. I don't even blame VISA/Mastercard for this one because this is a game available on every fucking console globally. This is inexcusable and DLSite becoming turbocucks is going to make their store irrelevant eventually. I hope they eat shit for this, they deserve it now. Grow a fucking spine, you goddamned nips!

>>715032935
It's "lolli" in in lollipop + "school" in the description lmfao. dlsite set up a script to just autoblock anything with those descriptors with no care.

>>715034512
Then devs who sell on DLSite need to change the way they list games on there to avoid tripping the filters. "Candypop Chainsaw", "learning place" etc. DLSite doesn't deserve honesty if they're going to keep doing this.

i love js and jc so much bros...

>>715032935
I don't get why they're doing that regional blocking when they won't allow credit card payments regardless.

>>714973949 (OP)
Tits too small. Shill it to me again once they have a heroine equal to this sexy perkele

It's gonna feel good when our US government busts Visa's and Master Card's duopoly and break their asses up for more competition. This would fix these credit card issues. The investigation went further after orange man took office.

>>715037764
I thought he hasn't done anything about "debanking"
hopefully yet

>>715037764
the big beautiful bill protects billionaires though

>>715037764
If they don't get broken up, which might be difficult because of how ingrained they've become in the financial system, then they should have rules placed on them similar to utilities (because that's basically what they've become). No more blocking transactions for "brand protection" reasons; unless they can provide proof of an imminent legal threat, and then only in the regions said law applies.

>>715038134
Agreed

>>715038134
Trump would never disturb the Jewish hegemony like that.

There's not much to censor in this game, the original PS4 release wasn't censored like someone said, the panties were added on the Switch release which came later, a update for the PS4 which added the pantsu and switch content was released too so there's parity between ps4 and switch version
Dialogue is pretty tame too.

>>715039207
Anon even ecchi games that got whacked with Sony policies in 2019/2020 before they died off are too extreme for today. Steam would probably ban the PS4 version of Omega Labyrinth Life now (yes, the version that removed Omega from the title because the symbol looks like boobs)

>>715039405
This is as lewd as it gets.

>>715039469
I don't know about that, the game is apparently all about taking photos of the girls, often in sensual positions. And there's apparently also touching mechanics.

> >What is LoveR Kiss?

>It's a visual novel-style dress up romance simulation with an extra visual component - there is a heavy emphasis on picture-taking.

> >What do you actually do in this game?
>Most of the game is reading or listening to dialogue. You very rarely choose from several dialogue options. When in conversation, you will play a game using Gems to select a topic and try to build various love and conversation meters, or start a photo session, without accidentally ending the conversation. You will buy disposable items, pay for dates and shop for costumes and accessories. The rest of the game is taking pictures of high school girls, either in free time or with time or position restrictions.

> >Pictures of high school girls? Like, erotic ones?!


>Actually, yes. The game has two categories of pictures - cute and excite - and a theme of the game is how closely glamour photography is tied to eroticism.

>The game is razor-acutely aware of when you have taken a beautiful photo and when you have taken a sexy one.

>Girls become embarrassed and will insist you not take certain angles of pictures. If too humiliated, they will abruptly leave.

>At the same time, they are correctly NOT devoid of sensuality. In the proper mood you can ask them to "pose sexy" and they will demonstrate their idea of that. This usually drives up their embarrassment quickly.

>With no actual nudity or sex, and nothing else more extreme than kissing, the game bravely wrestles the concept of glamour photography to the floor for a noogie.

>>715042315
The lewdest dialogue is just telling a lewd joke to a girl, one scene where one girl almost pees herself and maybe a lil girl telling you she likes you and wants to be your wife when she grows up and your nbr lil sister telling you she loves you.
The photo mode gets boring fast as you only need it to unlock perks by taking pictures of ducks hidden in the background which give you extra dialogue choices or prevent girls from quitting mid-dialogue(if you bring up a lewd topic) or mid photo sesh if you take low angle pictures etc, once you've unlock everything there is no reason to keep taking photos unless you like to pose the girls around but you can do that outside the story mode.

>>715039469
He's right though that Steam has become absolutely retarded. The version of Tokyo Clanpool submitted to Steam last year had the rubbing minigame which was 90% of the lewd in the game removed and they still banned it.

>>715031786
>This upcoming game by qureate is probably the closest you'll get.
Better than nothing, I guess. My problem with quarete is that their games all have the depth of a puddle. The artwork and concept are always 10/10s, but that's about it. At least they tend to be short.

>>715048039
Damn that's crazy, I can't see the panty shots making it trough steam. The dialogue is pretty tame but the pantsu won't make it.

>And anyone could easily make claims like that, but I was actually going through and throwing out old stuff I'd left in my parents' house earlier this year and you can see the dates (and some genre skew) on my old magazines.

>>715063317
Yeah, you have to use universally established terms and also be brutally honest about the situation. Japanese don't understand what woke means and might even have translated it and seen it as a bunch of people complimenting the behavior. Too many gaijin are retarded in this way and I've seen Japanese mistake irony poisoned meme comments for hate comments before. Not to mention, the suggestion of racism really gets to the Japanese, especially the right leaning ones. This is because they still have that post WW1 mindset in some ways with the whole view of racist western powers ganging up on Japan. Japanese are also very proud, so they'll become enraged at the suggestion of their culture being trampled too. It is no coincidence that once people started being more honest about it instead of just using buzzwords, the changes come rapidly.
