Most VN's have been shit so far, but there are a few good ones on steam. They should know they have a western audience too considering Fate/Extra sold more to the west than Japan.Part of the problem though is that Nasuverse shit is pretty long and wordy when it's actually him that's writing the stuff. Fate/Extra was pretty light on dialogue in comparison and IIRC Fate/Extra CCC is almost like a proper Nasu light novel.That's gotta be a bitch and a half to translate, not to mention the cost.> Cost> Ufotable animates their stuffI don't think money is a problemI'm talking more about the companies that do the translations. Cause they have to pay for the license on top of paying their translators and coders full time.Ah good point So just to rub in some salt.F/SN was originally supposed to get a US release as well. However Type-Moon found that there weren't any eroge companies in the west that could afford a high profile license like Fate so the project was scrapped. If eroge was more accepted in the west Type-Moon could have established itself here back in 2005 and we could have been getting direct in house translations at this point instead of having to rely either on fan translators or on translation companies to cobble together funds.Stop talking before I cry <_<LC a nerd
