Visual Novel Translated For Free Trial
gp32 writes "Our translation group has just wrapped up work on an English translation of the visual novel Fate/Stay Night. If you are at all interested in this genre of games, this one isn't a bad place to start."
That's correct, this is just the demo, containing a modified (spoiler-free) version of the game's prologue. Still a hefty bit of text, though.
Newlife Anime is working on translating the full game.
This game is a Japanese "visual novel" game demo, i.e. a lot of minimally-animated pictures, some sound effects, and a lot of text. If you're an anime fan you might appreciate the art style.
You can see some screenshots at Type Moon's Fate page, as they're the original publisher.
Yes - it has adult content. Well done, you score 100% for observation.
Presumably you will now discount the game completely, and ignore the fact that the adult content represents a tiny fraction of an epic storyline, a feast of love, magic, and betrayal, steeped in mythology from around the world.
Funny how people can't see past the "anime porn" label where games which place sex within relationships and give it a meaningful place in the plot are concerned, yet have no qualms about playing the ones where screwing hookers is just a way of regaining health...
Just to clarify, the demo portion of the game has no adult content. The screenshots on Type Moon's page cover the full game.
