Surprised no LE for it.

I played through all the routes in a short space of time for trophies and pretty much burned myself out on it, it's actually not that bad but the routes are very repetitive.

That one is in a few hours. Are you guys expecting any new announcement?
I'll set my expectations to "nothing, or Switch ports".
still haven't even played Ashen Hawk (and as a result Wintertide Miracles either), though, so I'm not super itching for more just yet; of course I'm happy to add to my already overly large backlog if it means stuff is still coming out at all...

Well, we've been chugging along on this for about 3 years, but our Otome is on the verge of release this month (!). Fully voiced, professional cast, professional soundtrack, etc. Not sure what kind of interest a Western otome will inspire, we bucked some of the usual trends to provide an original experience, but it was fun to make!
Sorry, old trailer. We recast Daniel with the excellent Jason Wishnov ;)

Yeah. Which sucks because we have the dev kit and had code running, but by the time it would be ready there would be no marketplace for it. We are going to look into other options if the PS4 release is well received :)
Thats a shame. I hope PS4 remote play on Vita will be sufficient for me. I use it often but not for visual novels and its kinda iffy on the games I do play on it.

I remember that one of the reasons was that there'd be no possible physical print to offset costs. Eastasiasoft is still making physical Vita titles as they're based in Asia, that could help out if there's still a possibility.
Asia a market we considered. Sad truth is that we'd have to translate the game, which given the amount of dialogue (7000+ lines spoken, 9000+ lines of unspoken narration) the cost of the translation would be several times the actual cost of developing the game.
Bummer. Would've gone nicely with the rest of my otome collection on Vita!
Collar x Malice and Unlimited Switch port announced at Otomate Party. Would love to see Aksys bring this over.
Was wondering how long it'd take for this to happen.
Collar x Malice is the best otome game I've played, so I'd love to be able to play Unlimited in English.
I recently read a really interesting article about QuinRose's history (they sound like an awful company) and how their revival under Otomate seems sketchy too:
Sadly there seem to be tonnes of these kinds of stories in amongst the smaller Japanese devs

Just saw the article on Gematsu, and went straight here to whine about no localization. u_u
I want THIS especially:
"A mythological story directed by Wataru Watanabe, illustrated by Satoi, written by Yuma Katagiri, and featuring voice actors Yoshitsugu Matsuoka, Tomokazu Sugita, Nobunaga Shimazaki, Yuuto Uemura, Yuuma Uchida, and Shun Horie."
Please! It's the same director, writer and artist as Nil Admirari no Tenbin, which we also never got. Goddammit.

Oh, I don't know anything. 💦
It's just that we usually get Otome announcements at AX.

When did Hakuoki: Edo Blossoms become so expensive?
You don't have to translate your game to any other language for eastasiasoft to release a physical print in Asia. You can easily find them on Twitter and talk about it, several developers that are still interested on the Vita are striking deals with them after western manufacturing ended.

This was a great read! I followed QuinRose a lot since I liked the localized mangas and always wanted the games to come out here. But then the disastrous English localization of the mobile port came out and that was a bummer: http://chic-pixel.com/2014/08/alice-in-heart-deserves-better/
I do have to admit I did get some dokis seeing all the stupid looking old characters again...... still love me a yandere knight and sadistic twins....

Depending on your play style, we estimate 20-28 hours to unlock all the endings, trophies and CGs. We have a lot of otome fan friendly features like auto play and auto skip if you want to blast through the game, or if you actually want to listen to all the dialogue (it's ALL voiced) it is a much longer experience.

Voltage, gimme some of the good stuff already. Where's Kissed by the baddest bidder? Dreamy Days in West Tokyo? A Wedding and Seven Rings?
I'm going to assume Scandal in the Spotlight will come over, that one seemed pretty popular?
For how many of those they have, they are really putting them out at a snail's pace.

Haha, I'm not a fan of that one myself, but I always assumed that's their most popular title, so I'm legit surprised they're not bringing this over first.
Wait what

oh my god yesssss finally
What has been teased? I hope there's some new titles in there and not just a load of old ports.
Ditto. Wouldn't mind any digital-only stuff.
Nothing was teased since the panel isn't live for a few hours yet (which was why I just figured to mention it, rather than even linking it, since it doesn't really say anything).
This one should be a safe bet.
Does it have anything additional in it, or just a straight port?
