Hey @TheArcadean, I don't want to be mean but, because the support on Discord is ok'ish due to the massif ammounts of questions i'd would like to get feedback from you.

(And as an Community Manager for a Game & my own Business i know it's not that easy...)

Are there translations InGame if not, do you plan on and if yes would you like to get help, I could provide German (for free ofcorse, because the game is awsome AF!), this would also bring in some ppl I know that just don't unterstand English. :D

And would it be possible to get keybindings, not just controller based, a full set for the top right by letters and the nexus/manor and so on like numerical so it's more or less self-explaynatory. it would be a nice confort creep esspecially on Steam-Deck. (Of course I did get trou without that, but sometimes navigation is a bit nervwrecking.)

greetings

Do tech support for long enough and at some point you start running on autopilot.

No, there are no official translation.
Some people have decided to make them but they're not officially supported and most of the time they're outdated (also a good bunch of them are just machine translated)

There are no plans for official translations until the game is finished or nearly finished.
It just isn't feasible with Arc's current workflow (weekly updates), and it would be quite silly to have the translations lagging behind each update or needing to have the translators on speed-dial every single week.

Likewise, the keybinds, if they happen it will also be around that time.
As Arc mentioned before "once the game is done I'll be taking two months to go over it, polishing, adding QoL changes and more events/choices/outfits/etc."

Keybinds being one of those QoL changes.

It just isn't a priority.
Tight schedule and working all by himself, he has to be firm on what he can and cannot do with his time.

First of all, sorry for the late response, got some nice migrene...

Oh - I do know exactly what you mean, I burnd my self out for over 2 jears in a 7d 10-14h (sometimes up to16h) daily shif without proper rest or vacation time, for our community with creating new content, fixing shit other creators should do..., adding features to other content and so on. I was always on active ingame and ticket support, so I hope you guys at least don't screw your time up with the same over over supportive care.

maybe a ticket system would also be good for you guys because I learned as admin for servers and discord's shy ppl do come up and speak, ppl ask stuff they would not in public and it's a better overvew.

the thing with the translation is understandable if you don't have a external file for that so that the community could just crate those like a mod them self and share those on your discord.

I'm also glad to now know about planed QoL's and that as a possible thing. and it is understanable the it's not in a high priority. - I can at least now say that your vNovel is much more better to control on a Steam Deck without needing of mous or touch support, after I looked into other's...

The tight schedule and workflow i also noticable so there is nothing I would complain about event tho i know a lot of backround tools and stuff I also know that that's never all what it takes, and I learnded a lot that tools sometimes just f#ing die in the middel of the work flow, best parts are alwas 3d tools that skip saving cycles or include an error that works somehow backwards into older saves.

So thanks a lot for your much better response, i will look forwards to your work and if my situation gets better I'm open for Support via Patreon or without cuts over paypal or so. ;-)

What Cursed said :) I don't really have anything to add!

I can now totally understand that and If only I would like to chat with you about the background stuff, just out of curiosity.

(BUT only in privat because some stuff doesn't need to be shared in total puplic, like work tools and so on.)

I like learning new stuff or just figuring out what tool's, assets and so on I'm missing. I also always like to create assets for some software or convert 3D Models into usable Assets for an Engine just to have my Mind challenged.

If we hadn't closed our servers two weaks ago I would create stuff thair but now I need to find a new project to get my time to good use.

I don't focus on projects to get money out of as long as I'm not investing money and even if so - I mostly don't need to profit, just not wasting it is enouth.

I guess thats one of my quirks as a western buddhist...

Living in a very mixed livestyle...

So thanks a lot!
