Who here is tired of start-up projects with teasing mockups, a few WIPs, and then no progress/completion, ever?

*raises hand*

Plus, maybe all the naysaying will make people get their shit together.

You could always rip the text from the playstation remake too... and to be fair, its not like we are handing oodles of cash to these guys to this for us, its for FREE. If we did, then it would be another story.
Just like I plan to do some playing around with HUC and see what I can do to start porting some dos games over ^^

Why are you naysayers even in here? You just have nothing better to do than heckle? The way you push it makes it look like you want to see translation efforts fail, just so you can be right.

Basically, everything that others do is juts considered crap in this section. Everything that some people here can not even complete even if they say the contrary, even if they're an 8 or so person team.

BT>why should Arkhan even bother posting too? So if I understand your comment, you have the right to post to criticize others' ideas or projects but you don't have the right to criticize the criticizers?

You didn't understand my comment as intended, I guess that the wink smiley wasn't enough.

Some people enjoy being negative or shooting down other people's ideas or judging whether or not what someone else does for fun is worth their while. Just as many people love buying up old video games just to possess, but never play them.

I agree with Spenoza that the interest in any project should be all that matters as far as outside opinions go and I would love any kind of translated Neo Nectaris as it's obe of my favorite games. I'm not picking sides or singling anyone out, but pcefx turned negative a long time ago. To the point that people argue about arguing.

The question was "what kind of community interest would there be".  This means "who is for this, and who is against it?  Lets see what everyone thinks/feels"

Clearly, there are people who are all for it and are naive enough to think it will happen sometime this side of 2030.

Then there are the people who are uninterested skeptics.  I myself don't want to see anything fail.  However, given the track record, it will fail.  I'd love to be wrong about it, as long as the people who finish shit don't just finish it for the sake of proving the naysayers wrong.  If you're only doing shit to spite people or prove them wrong, you're doing it for the wrong reasons.

So, lets cut the boyscout bullshit and take it for what it is.  This is the PCE community.  Land of shit that never gets finished because everyone's got f*cking ADD.

You forgot to add that no one wants to share their unfinished projects neither so someone else can continue the work.  :-({|=

Yes, I would like to see Neo Nectaris translated.

That's a problem with almost every retro gaming community.

The subject actually says "Who's interested in..."  It doesn't say "Who doesn't want..."

There is no problem in saying that you think that Neo Nectaris is not the best game to be translated due to the fact that the language is not a barrier here as opposed to games such as Tenga Makyou II and other RPGs. Still, I think it's not fair just to overlook this kind of projects even before they started. If someone wants to work on translating a game, then so be it. If it doesn't fail, then cool. If it fails, yes of course it will be one of those projects that fails yet again. But if noone even starts, we're sure not to see anything transaletd at all.

So please at least don't be discouraging people.

Truth is, this is an excellent game for a translation candidate. As long as all the menus and stat/data words are translated and inserted first, even that would be a good thing. The story is less important to a game like this.

Just as the subject asks... what kind of community interest would there be a Neo Nectaris translation?

So is there any interest in translating Neo Nectaris?
It depends, has anyone looked into how hard this game is to hack?
