141 - Iris.
🕑 Added 2022-09-12 12:00:09 +0000 UTC- Hello bros. How is it going? It's Monday again and that means I get to share another Monday Post with you. Exiting, is it not? ^^
The work. Had a couple of minor personal issues to take care off, so that slowdown my workflow a bit, but not too much. I am wrapping up on Iris's story final events. The plan for this week is to finish everything Iris related and move one to other aspects of the game. 
The games. Playing Valkyria Chronicles 2 on my PSVita. Haven't made much progress yet, only couple of hours into the game (normally I spend very little time on gaming, unfortunately I am an adult). But so far I like all the changes: I like the VN storytelling and I like whole academy vibe. Also cameos with familiar faces from the first game was a nice touch.
- www.wanikani.com Found this website by a struck of luck. It's a paid website but first 3 levels are free. In only few weeks I have learned more kanji then I thought was possible in several months. At this rate in a 6 months or so I should be able to read my precious Japanese VNs without any problems ^^ If you are studying Japanese but having problems with reading (like me), give WaniKani a try. The method they are using is nothing like I have ever experienced, but it works wonderfully. ^_^
Weird thought. Few days ago I randomly thought to myself: what if were to release SC34 Season 2 on steam (along with the usual free public release of course). I could sell it for like 5 bucks or something. People who are low on funds could download it for free and those who want to support me could grab it from Steam. I am pretty sure if I were to make changes such as changing Lara Croft's name to Lora Craft and get rid of the copyrighted music this could work. Anyway, just a crazy thought I had. Sound like too much work to be honest ^^
EXTRA. I will be sharing quite a few awesome WIPs in this week's ESTRA post. Make sure to check it out.- And that is all. I will see you all next week. Thank you for your support, bros!

We need Chinese!!!

Just not worth rattling the hornets nest as it would probably kill your US accounts and impact your income, not to mention all the stress.

Copyright lawsuits last for 2 years minimum. You would have to pay 6 figures to defend Fair Use. If you win, you could go after legal fees, but that is only if the plaintiff is making an obvious frivolous lawsuit.
trollmahn
If you get sued in America for copyright, your content gets removed, then you have to hire an attorney to defend you. Considering the bad relationship with Russia & US currently, US lawyers may not be able to represent you due to sanctions.
trollmahn
You use the Disney designs. While you are using it as a part of Fair Use, that is only a defense AFTER you get sued.
trollmahn
Rapunzel & Tinkerbell characters are public domain, BUT the specific Disney designs are not.

I was expecting a challange after last times message.
AKAMAN
Thanks. If nothing else I appreciate you saying that^^
AKAMAN
Thanks :)

AKAMAN
A true hero, as per usual.
AKAMAN
Thanks Trevor. ^^
AKAMAN
You're probably right. Unfortunately.
AKAMAN
Yeah... All things considered at my not worth the hustle at the end.
AKAMAN
Yeah, I know the feeling.....
AKAMAN
Thank you kindly, DeadBro ^^

To be honest the more I think about it the more I realize that I would much rather retain as much creative freedom as I can. Working with Steam would mean a lot of self-censoring....

I know. But I see games like this one on steam... https://store.steampowered.com/app/1973580/Once_a_Porn_a_Time/

You should totally put it on steam. I would buy it, absolutely.
NakedAlice
Yes, adults do not have much time for games) But still glad that you enjoy your time) Keep learning Japanese! Glad you found a useful site for this)

I love meat recipes, they are so nutritious and most importantly delicious, definitely a boost of energy for the whole day!
NakedSunFlower
As for releasing SC34 Season 2 on Steam, I quite like the idea, yes, it seems like a lot of work, but nevertheless...
Joseph
The gif this week is from Umaru-Chan.
AKAMAN
Yes, I will give it more thought.

Glad the Japanese is coming along well, and the game sounds like it's rolling right along! Glad to hear it! I hope you're doing well!

I'd honestly say trying to put it on Steam is a big risk. If you openly monetize it, you run the very real risk of bringing down the Wrath of the House of Mouse upon your head. As others have said, incidentally making money off Patreon for "whatever you do" is very different from directly making money of something that uses the IP of company, especially one as rabid as the Big D.
Bunny Waffles
Always remember. You don't fuck with the House of Mouse. They have fleets of lawyers and don't take kindly to their IP being monetized if they aren't the ones doing it, especially if it is being done as smut.

steam thing sounds like a nice revenue possibility but two things to worry about: 1) Literally EVERY developer I have know who released to steam found the process frustrating, communciations difficult, and it took far, far longer than they expected. (every. single. one. And that's from about a dozen.) 2) You are protected by a combination of parody rights and your home nations somewhat, ah, generous take on international copyright law. The IP copyright holders might feel different about porn-princess being sold on Steam than they do about her being given away in a free game made by a guy who coincidentally has a Patreon. Do some homework first and make sure this does not put you on someone's radar.

Hmm added that wanikani.com to my list of learning websites. The ones I intended to go improve myself with, but found life and work commitments suck all my time so it just remains a nice idea collection of bookmarks. Dreams
DeadMan
Steam sounds good for the chance to earn some extra $$$$. Giving that language site a try also. Now back to the grind and remember to have fun.
EventSpawn
Also (having just published a game on steam) steam does not like anything that involves schools or even college, so the whole Hogwarts section could be ... problematic. But you can always submit a build and see what feedback you get.
AB007BA
Nice！Steam！Steam！Steam！
trollmahn
Steam would bring it too much attention and risks stirring the Mouse.
trollmahn
Even though Fair Use is a thing, it is only a defense after the work has been taken down.
Ace
Glad you are having a great time and thanks for sharing.
GodHasAbandonedUs
Go for steam. I'd still play original but would buy to do my part
Rwede
Steam sounds AWESOME. I'll replay it for sure x)
