Final progress update post

November 19, 2013

I’m at the end of the translation where I’m jumping around a lot, so it’s too difficult to try to get a line count. This will be the final progress update before I actually post about a hard patch release date.

Basically this is what’s left to finish, along with my guess on how much time it will take:

6 H-Scenes (4 hours)
3 Battles (1 hour each)
About 60% of the city text (Not sure, probably 4+ hours)
37 Encyclopedia entries (Four hours)
20 Evaluations (Maybe an hour, 1.5h at most)
Extra battle systems (This is the dicey one. I don’t know how hard this will be to add in and troubleshoot. Anywhere from 2 hours if easy, to many hours of fixing)
Editing/bug fixing (7+ hours)

Nearly there. I’d like to get the actual text all translated by Thanksgiving, and the editing done by early december.

        Actually that’s kind of weird to say

        • So, you’re saying he was one of Lucifina’s rebels? That’s… an interesting hypothesis. Maybe he’s Erigora himself, there is a bit of consonance between their names…

    I wonder,what are you gonna do one you finished translating MGQ 3? Oh RogueTranslator

    • He said he’s retiring from translating. Probably forever. He said he’s going to make one final post with a link to all his tranlations, then change the password on the account and throw the new one away. In more or less words.

      • Just a Puny Traveler permalink

        I sincerely hope that in his retirement a new hero will be born. I will awaits the day that hero emerges.

      • gpyei permalink

        What about part 4?

          I think part 3 is the final one, according to people who played the jap version.

      Maybe he’ll translate some other game that sometimes get suggested in the comment section.

      • Nope, once MGQ3 is done I’ll hang around for a week or two to edit and fix bugs, then I’ll be leaving the scene completely.

            there is a new Monstergirl game coming out? details are wished

          • shakey2 permalink

            Yes there is a new MonsterGirlQuest game, it’s about the past. >.> there may or may not be time travel involved It’s done in RPG maker though so that may turn some people off to it. It’s canon as far as I know, check dargothTranslations blog for more info. I’m probably going to attempt to translate it myself as practice unless a more skilled translator picks it up.

          • Anonymous permalink

            Maybe Dargoth will take over he’s been working translations by himself and with Rogue on several games already…..maybe we should bug him about it XD

          For what reason?

          • Anonymous permalink

            I am sure dargoth will probably step up to do it. Will still miss rogue tho :)

          • Edale permalink

            Rogue’s work has always seemed a higher quality than dargoth’s, If he picks MGQ4 up it will be interesting to see if that’s due to the translator’s skills, or the source material’s quality…

      • Anon37 permalink

        I’ve been joining hora conversations in this blog, but I still don’t know what it pertains to when we use it in sentences. Does it pertain to H-scenes in general or specifically Alice scenes? Or voiced scenes?

        • I left it as a placeholder until I could think of something better to put, since I was undecided. It caught on for some reason, so I decided to leave it as is for voiced scenes.

          hora hora, you often hear it when a girl is punishing a guy in a sexual sadistic manner. I often interpret it as here here, or take that take that or take more take more. Sometimes you hear them say it like 10 times in a row. Personally I find it annoying after a while.

          • Edale permalink

            From Gabriel Blessing’s “Shirou Emiya: Erogame Protagonist” fanfic. After Shiro (Fate/Stay Night) finally snaps from everyone trying to rape him, instead of just killing him painfully, and rapes the coliseum’s dullahan with the handles of his swords, when he realizes that his refuge of pure battle and combat is also tainted with rape. Alice’s reaction:

            “Next time make sure you take your time. You have to draw it out a bit more in order to really enjoy it. Also, you used the ‘horahora’ for to early, and complety out of context. You have to use it only when it would most fully shatter your target’s pride.”

            Also, I tried the trick mentioned in that chapter of adding salt to carnie food (fried dough, funnel cakes, ect.) to make it better…that shit really works, it’s amazing.

          • Anonymous permalink

            I highly doubt Gabriel Blessing really knows what does hora means. He just made an assumption. I think it is just like teasing “come on” and stuff
            BTW. thanks for reminding about “Shirou Emiya: Erogame Protagonist”. I read a first part year ago and it was fucking hilarious. I didn’t know that he made a second part.

          • Edale permalink

            Yea, unfortunately he ended the MGQ story at the end on part 2, Afterall, what hope would Illias’ army have vs an angry Shiro?

            And I was more pointing out the effective use of the word ‘hora’ vs overusing it.

    Thanks rogue for doing this for us. It is appreciated as always. I am very curious what the chances are us getting a petition going for Toro to get someone to help them make an English copy. While I am sure not HUGE there is a fanbase for this game that will help keep their sells up. I can’t imagine finding a programmer that is fluent in both Japanese and English since it is a commonly taught language in Japan. Granted translations will seem different but hey >.>.

    Reason I am suggesting this is because Dargoth does already take on quite abit himself. Wouldn’t seem fair to expect yet another project for him to do

      I was about to say that releasing eroge with loli in Muuuriica is dangerous due to obvious reasons but then I remembered that mangagamer translated and released a dozen of loli games and now translating full loli Imouto Paradise. So why not release MGQ officially?

      • CwHart permalink

        Well I do not know about an official US or UK release but a mod for English speakers that can be downloaded on the site where we can buy MGQ games. I mean its not like Toro can get in trouble over laws that do not apply to their own country

      • Anonymous permalink

        Loli is not allowed to be commercially sold on United States well not commercially anyway i think mere ownership is fine.

    • Incubusknight permalink

      For Illia’s first entry you had to achieve it during part 1 of the MGQ series. If you hit 100 evaluations during part 2 or 3 it doesn’t get added from what I’ve come to understand.

      • AnonS permalink

        Can you just go into the monsterpedia and find your favorite monster girl from that part and just get repeatedly raped and evaluated?

        • Anon37 permalink

          That’s what I did. (with Tamamo)

          • Takata permalink

            I did that too (also with Tamamo). Also, I thought it was only 50 evaluations… ?

      • Anonymous permalink

        I think it’s 90 Evaluations

    • Edale permalink

      You have to watch 50 evaluations before the end of MGQ1. You’ll get Illias’s scene instead of the normal evaluation. Evaluation watched through the monsterpedia don’t count.

      Basically on one play-through, purposely lose to every single monster, and watch the evaluation scenes for them all. There are 65 or so monsters on part 1, so you’ll get it before the end of part 1, and it’s OK if you miss one or two.

  62. AnonS permalink

    Ah it’s almost over. If I start playing the game again now probably I’d be right at that spot when Rogue releases the final patch. Of course I will be out Thanksgiving week but I assume Rogue will be too and the patch won’t be released until closer to Christmas, as a final Christmas present to us all.

    It’s been a fun ride and the past few years have surprisingly flown by pretty fast when I look back at them. Rogue are you going to stick around on any forums? If you do, you should link the forum in your last blog post, if only so that we know where to ask for a patch if something happens (although probably torrents will have a complete game and the patch at some point afterwards).

    I don’t even know how I found this game and this site. I don’t really frequent any forums of this type of genre. I think it was through hongfire, maybe I should go back on that site, but I generally found I wasn’t interested in any of the games and playing through them that were on there.

    Hey rogue, will your final patch allow for the game to be played outside of japanese locale? I’m tired of having to switch back and forth just to play yume nikki.

      Why not using applocale?

      • Douglas Reinholm permalink

        Why not use nothing?

        On Vista Business and Win 7 Professional it works perfectly without any modifications.

        I srsly cannot understand why anyone would recommend this applocale-voodoo-stuff (except for XP-users).

        • Anonymous permalink

          depends on the game engine and I’m asuming the OS. MGQ personally I have no problem running it without japanese locale.
          A few games (like the engine used in Marunomi which Rogue also translated) I do need japanese locale and instead use applocale.

          — Gin

          • AnonS permalink

            MGQ is actually the exception. The vast majority I have to run in Japanese region, applocale very rarely works for me. That’s another reason to like MGQ the best.

            Onesyota or the newer one would probably be pretty fun if they ran in US. The newest one from excess M does actually.

          • CDJ permalink

            That’s partly the patch at work though, while the unpatched game DOES run without applocale, it tends to crash at certain parts.

            I guess there are still some characters that’ll cause trouble without applocale.

    • Edale permalink

      Install Windows’ Japanese language pack.

      After a restart you should be able to play the translated sections without switching to Japanese locale, this is true of many games of this genre.

        You can even play many of the games un-translated this way.

    Meaning that the sum estimated time it will take to complete this project is a day one hour and a half hour (25.5) to finish will realesed at 23.11.13, SO DON’T STOP WORKING (JUST KIDDING ;-))
    Out of curiosity, are you going to do a marathon of a day one hour and a half hour to finish or generally you’re working on projects in parts?

      Don’t get too fired up, I’m pretty sure he would like the most getting his dick sucked by a monster girl than you (which probably happens once a day)

      This is a wonderful job you are doing, even thought I can somewhat read some japanese and played the games without english patches, the translation its good and you are working hard, even alone.

      Keep it up, now it’s just a little step to finish the mission given to you by the gods.

    We know rogue dosen’t want payment for his work, but the stuff he has done has helped so many of us have even momenterally happier lives, it’d be awesome if we could do *something* good for him. Is there a monster girl he particularily likes we could commission fan art of? A charity he supports we could donate to? That second one would be awesome, actually.

    anybody know where i can get the last patch??? im kind of confused as to where it is supposed to end, i mean the last patch is. mine ended in the desert

    • incubusknight permalink

      Latest patch ended with Luka’s return to the monster lord’s castle and is about to set out again for new additional tasks.
      If your having trouble finding the latest patch, it should be here.
      (https://roguetranslations.wordpress.com/2013/10/04/mgq-final-chapter-patch-2-62/)
      If those don’t work you may as well just hold out until the final patch is released (early December at best). It’s not too much longer now.

      • AnonRoy permalink

        Actually, I could be wrong but the next patch should be sometime this week, if all goes to plan. If I understand correctly, Rogue intends to release two more patches- the next one, this week, is going to have all the text translated. However, Rogue knows that it’s almost certainly going to be a bit rough- a typo here, an error there- and so once he’s released it to the fapping fanbase, he’ll be asking everyone to point out errors, mistakes, typos, and so on. He’ll then spend anywhere from one to three weeks editing, making fixes, and polishing up a final release. That final release will then be the end of Rogue Translator’s translating career, as he himself has claimed numerous times.

        • incubusknight permalink

          There you have it then. Looking forward to a hopeful release by the end of this week to go along nicely with our thanksgiving dinners.

    Hey Rogue, i’ve been following your work since I stumbled across MGQ2. I must say that the amount of time you put into it is truly impressive. Since you say you’re leaving the scene after MGQ3 i’d just like to say thank you for your hard work. Normally I almost never post but, again, thanks a lot.

    I’m and always been a lurker. Really not one to leave comments or to participate in conversations.
    But this time I really feel like it is an important duty for all of us who’ve benefited from your hard work to thank you.

    Thank you Rogue.

    You’ve done an amazing job. It will certainly be a huge loss for the community that you’re leaving. But it’s 100% justifiable and understandable. You’ve done more than enough already at this thankless job of fan translation.
    I just hope we’ll still have you lurking around these parts.

    Thanks again dude, and enjoy your retirement from active duty!

  121. Anonymous permalink

    It’s been so long since I first discovered MGQ, and the dedication you have shown towards translating all three games is something incredibly admirable.
    Although you may be leaving, I’m sure your legacy will continue to live on.
    Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

  127. Anonymous permalink

    Is he going to release the patch around Thanksgiving or after the editing in early December?

  128. Zido permalink

    I have a few questions, if you don’t mind.

    1. Does the third game conclude Luka’s story? I’ve heard about a fourth game that will take place in the past, but, avoiding spoilers, could someone tell me whether or not Luka’s story ends with this game?
    2. I’ve also heard that the third game is longer than 1 and 2 combined… Is that an exaggeration?
    3. Would it be safe to say that we’ll have the fully translated game within a month, two weeks, or what, barring anything completely unexpected?

    Also, I seriously want to thank you for this. Monmusu Quest is already an easy 10/10 for me. Eroge games aren’t meant to have stories and dialogue this amazing, but it’s easily turning out to be one of the most original plots I’ve ever seen. Sometimes I even think that I’d like to see a non-H version of the game – not because I dislike the H-scenes, but because I feel like this game could easily be pure condensed epicness if it weren’t for the fact that even the most important enemies attack you with sex. I’m not necessarily saying I’d enjoy it MORE if it were like that – just that it’d give a more pure experience, as far as the story/epicness goes.

    Anyway, again, thank you so much for translating this. You’ve brought one of my new favorite things to my attention sir, and I love you for it :3

    • Chaon permalink

      1. I don’t quite get your question. But I think yes.
      2. Of course it longer. The first and second chapter don’t have that long story.

    • incubusknight permalink

      1. Yes, The story we started with from MGQ part 1 is wrapped up here at the end of part 3.
      There is a forth game in the making but it looks like it takes place afterwards with Luka being the main character once again with a new side plot.
      2. It’s longer due to Luka having to revisit every town that he came across since MGQ1, plus new locations.
      3. Your guess is as good as ours, it really depends on how much free time Rogue is granted in between his real life job and other distractions that may pop up. As of this update page many of us are hopeful for a possible release by the end of this week and a final release sometime in December. Till then we’ll just have to wait and see and be patient.

    Hora.. Hora..
    I actually didn’t know and realize that they were going to make a fourth game as a backstory game!!! (if it is true that is..) either way i really loved this game!
    it has a good story to it which makes you more interested and more intense when you play it!
    It wasnt one of those games where it just repets over and over.. again and again..

    Rogue you have done an outstanding job by doing this for the online community!
    I for one dont know Japanese at all and its hard to come by let alone find English Patches for visual novels / hentai games let alone even have them requested and made so i give you my gratitude for doing this for me and others similar to me :)

    Cannot wait!! only a few more days or weeks (probably) until the last translation patch is out then we need to wait for the bug fix/typo fix but still! i cant wait to see what happens in the end!!!
    (please dont spoil it for me.. >__>)

    As for MGQ-4 (if it does get released)
    i hope you can somehow manage to fit that game into your busy schedule Rogue..
    it would help me out because of my language issue but its your call i wont force anything im just really grateful that i can play this game and know what the f@#$ is going on rather than guessing or assuming from watching the game with Japanese text on like some Visual Novels that i have previously played.. @w@
