We also assume you know it has several significant flaws which made playing it uncomfortable. We set out to fix those flaws, improve upon the release and make this the best version of STEINS;GATE out there. -**UPDATE:** That was nearly five years ago now. Can you believe it? Well, a promise is a promise, and we've finally gotten around to releasing this major update for the STEINS;GATE Steam patch! Throughout the years, we've gained more and more experience working with this series, so it was only natural that someday we'd return to the project that started it all! Even though STEINS;GATE still remains as a top-of-the-line localization, there's always a *few* things to fix, aren't there? Now then, without further ado, let the 19790th development council commence! - +**UPDATE:** That was nearly five years ago now. Can you believe it?

Much like what we talked about for our STEINS;GATE Steam Patch version 2.0, we gained experience over the years, our team got bigger, and our ambitions higher. So here it is, finally—the major update to our CHAOS;CHILD Improvement Patch. With all the places our CHAOS;HEAD NOAH translation has gone, we were bound to revise CHAOS;CHILD at some point; the two games are very tightly connected, after all. As our work on NOAH progressed, we found more and more parallels, more evident thematic progression, and just... more in general. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say this patch has an amount of work and thought put into it comparable to our ROBOTICS;NOTES ELITE Steam Patch, but with far less crunch this time, we promise. So, without further ado, we welcome you back to Chaos World. -

We felt confident that we didn't have much else to say on the subject, and the project was progressing. However, in light of recent NOAH developments, as well as several other projects making significant headway, we have decided to bring the progress reports back—this time, as a generalized monthly post on all things Committee of Zero. - ### But first, let's discuss a topic more important than that. The Committee of Zero is an international organization. It feels a bit weird to say that, but it's true. We have members, friends, and followers in countries all across the world, and that includes Ukraine. MrComputerRevo, our tech lead, and the head developer on our MAGES engine port, [impacto](https://github.com/CommitteeOfZero/impacto), is one of those people. - We aren't normally the type to bring up politics, but when current events threaten to put members' lives in danger, they warrant addressing. - -So, what can you—what can we do—to help?

If you don’t have any money to spare, spreading the word and getting people active is just as important. Beyond that, simply supporting the people affected by this needless bloodshed does more than you know. - ### Now that we’ve said what needs to be said, let’s step away from the sadness and talk about what you’re all here for. Let’s start with NOAH. First off, we’re assuming you’ve heard by now that an official translation of NOAH has been announced over on the KagakuADV Twitter. We’ve already decided since the day it was announced that we’re going to continue working on our own translation until we have further information. You can read more on that [here](https://x.com/CommitteeOf0/status/1496581277637652484?s=20&t=LoPUSYyjtYUiMu4PWa5org). - As for how that translation’s been progressing, you may have noticed that the Editing portion of our progress table has been a bit... stagnant, unfortunately. Granted, all fan translation work is quite slow-going, especially when the group is infected by the grave ailments that are higher education, unfortunately-low-paying jobs, and the overall crazy nature of life itself. However, the progress on editing was beginning to grow unacceptable for us. - Our number one goal here at the Committee of Zero is to deliver you quality products. While slow editing does indeed invoke quality, if that editing never finishes, we can’t exactly fulfill the “deliver” part.” That’s why we’re currently testing out a change in our workflow—one which we put into action in the last third of February. - We plan to give you all the details next month after we’ve confirmed fully that this is the direction we’d like to take, but as things are now, it’s progressing very smoothly. The main thing we’d suggest looking out for is a minor change to the progress table come next month. It won’t be anything huge, don’t worry! It’s just a part of that new workflow we’re testing out. - So, to reflect these recent changes, the progress table is returning to the progress reports! We’ll be archiving the previous [Progress Tracker]({{ "/2021/08/01/chaoshead-noah-progress-tracker.html" | relative_url }}), so if you’re interested in how the project’s going, be sure to check back here every month. - And without further ado, here it is! - ### CHAOS;HEAD NOAH Overall Totals — March 1st, 2022 | | **Translation** | **TLC** | **Editing** | @@ -62,44 +50,36 @@ And without further ado, here it is! | True end | 100.00% | | | | TIPs | 100.00% | 100.00% | 23.94% | | **Total** | 100.00% | **24.27%** | **13.95%** | + {: class="totals"} \*: Note that Common route accounts for about two thirds of the game, and consists mostly of content that was in the original CHAOS;HEAD \*\*: Numbers highlighted in **bold** indicate that progress has been made in the past month. - ### The future of NOAH’s looking bright, but what about our other projects?

This patch will be similar to our STEINS;GATE 2.0 patch, featuring a full proofreading pass of the entire game well as a full TLC pass of the TIPS! Unlike S;G’s patch, however, this one’s going to be a lot more extensive. That’s right, folks, it doesn’t end there! - There were a number of terms in CHAOS;CHILD—such as the names of people, objects, events, and products—which were translated differently in previous localizations and official media. In most instances, consistency issues were most likely caused by a lack of a CHAOS;HEAD NOAH localization, as well as other untranslated games. Fortunately, because of our familiarity and work with this series, we’ve been able to create a proper CHAOS; terminology list, and the CHAOS;CHILD Improvement Patch version 2.0 will be your first look at it. - In short, on top of making CHAOS;CHILD consistent with every other patched game, it has also been made consistent with our CHAOS;HEAD NOAH translation. This’ll allow each and every one of our readers to have the best experience possible—one that maintains everything that connects these wonderful games together. - There’s also a few more things about it we haven’t mentioned, but you’ll just have to wait and see what exactly those might be. - We also have updates planned for our [STEINS;GATE patch](https://x.com/CommitteeOf0/status/1431302975612461056) and our long-awaited [1/3rd patch for ROBOTICS;NOTES DaSH](https://x.com/CommitteeOf0/status/1430250228125478923). Unfortunately, you’ll have to wait a little while longer for these; for one, they require a bit more work on the language/image-editing end, but beyond that, our beloved techies are currently out of commission due to the less-than-fortunate state of the world. - In the meantime, we’re excited to announce that we’ve started working on patches for three different games in the series: STEINS;GATE: My Darling’s Embrace, STEINS;GATE: Linear Bounded Phenogram, and everyone’s favorite recent MAGES. release, STEINS;GATE ELITE! - Let’s get a bit more specific, though. -* **STEINS;GATE: My Darling’s Embrace** - This project is in the preliminary phase, where we address broader consistency, punctuation, name order, and other obvious issues.

Additional TLC is unfortunately required, for our eye for quality has not yet expired. Even still, we’re pushing an update, one that’s perhaps related to today’s date. We encourage you to inspect the “More Options” tab, if you’re feeling the C.T. RC’s become a bit drab. - Accompanying this, it’s [ROBOTICS;NOTES ELITE](/projects/rne-steam.html) and [STEINS;GATE 0](/projects/sg0-steam.html); there were some things we missed, but mostly typos. - Next is CHAOS;CHILD version 2.0, the checking for which hasn’t a long way to go. And so, our friends, we can say this with certainty, it’s coming before the month ends—that much we guarantee. - As far as fandisks go, STEINS;GATE: Linear Bounded Phenogram is progressing steadily and slow. Translation fixing and tech is moving along, and both the installer and launcher are set where they belong. STEINS;GATE ELITE’s alternate endings now house STEINS;GATE’s lines; only common remains—such is the will of Steins. - With the volume of patch news heightened, we can happily say: new members have been enlightened, and our building problem has gone away. We hope you enjoy what’s to come, chant the waiting’s requiem, for it’s almost done. ### Finally, if you’ve noticed the gimmicks The jig is up—we made everything “rhyme,” for like in ROBOTICS;NOTES DaSH, everything swims in time.

It definitely had the most debate out of all the cases, and we ended up with a list of over 50 proposed names for the case. This is a case where Takumi’s doctor, Dr. Takashina, has his skull drilled open in order to expose his brain, which is then slowly scooped out with a spoon. The original Japanese for this is ノータリン. To start, 脳足りない is an insult that literally means “you don’t have a brain,” so it’s used practically to tell someone that they’re an idiot. It’s made out of the words 脳, meaning “brain,” and 足りない, meaning “not enough”; ノータリン is simply just a slurred version of that. Now, our issue with the translation is that it does not necessarily appear as an insult, and more just an immediate, “Uh, yup, that’s what he is. He doesn’t have a brain.” Now, the word “brainless” can definitely be used as an insult, but it’s typically paired with another word, e.g. “brainless take” or “You’re a brainless idiot,” and it sounds pretty awkward when used on its own. @@ -55,21 +55,21 @@ So, several of our team members agreed that Brainless wasn’t going to cut it. ### Tasty Hand → Finger Food -So, the original Japanese of this case is 美味い手, (“umai te”), which on the surface means “delicious/tasty hand.” However, the first part (美味い) can also be read as 上手い/うまい (“umai”), meaning “skilled,” which can be used in phrases such as 「うまい手があるぞ」, which could simultaneously mean, “Damn, I’m good,” and “Damn, \[I\] have a delicious hand.” We felt the original translation didn’t have a pun or a double meaning in any capacity, so in its place, we came up with “Finger Food.” After all, meat is typically food you eat with your fingers, i.e. finger food, and the victim was literally eating her fingers. +So, the original Japanese of this case is 美味い手, (“umai te”), which on the surface means “delicious/tasty hand.” However, the first part (美味い) can also be read as 上手い/うまい (“umai”), meaning “skilled,” which can be used in phrases such as 「うまい手があるぞ」, which could simultaneously mean, “Damn, I’m good,” and “Damn, \[I\] have a delicious hand.” We felt the original translation didn’t have a pun or a double meaning in any capacity, so in its place, we came up with “Finger Food.” After all, meat is typically food you eat with your fingers, i.e. finger food, and the victim was literally eating her fingers. (Also, notice how that 手 (“hand”) there is contained within the 上手い (“umai”), and therefore the alternate reading 美味い (“umai”)? It’s almost as if the original was “consumed” in some way. Maybe this is a reach, but hey, it’s hands we’re talking about here.) ### Why didn’t you change Group Dive or DQN Puzzle? -If we didn’t change the names, we either felt it did a good job representing the Japanese, or you have a special case like DQN. DQN (read like “dough-kyun”) is a term meaning “delinquent,” and it’s *all over* SciADV—especially CHAOS; games. Now, other localizations have taken it out before, such as STEINS;GATE, and that’s completely fine. However, one of the biggest reasons we chose not to do the same here was because DQN was, well, literally written on the bodies of the victims of DQN Puzzle in the form of the letters “D,” “Q,” and “N.” There is also a TIP present in-game explaining the term and its importance, so we felt the name was fine. +If we didn’t change the names, we either felt it did a good job representing the Japanese, or you have a special case like DQN.

The Japanese title for this case is actually completely different, and it’s taken from a Japanese piece of ASCII art. -( ﾟдﾟ) +( ﾟ д ﾟ) -It’s written as こっちみんな, which is a whole handful to explain. Basically, こっち (“kocchi”) means “this way,” and みんな (“minna,” read as “mee-na”) can be read both as 皆, as in everyone, and 見んな, which is a slurred way to say “don’t look.” So, the phrase can simultaneously be interpreted as, “Everyone, over here!” *and* “Don’t look!” This is applied to the murder of Ootani because it was a grisly sight livestreamed on Niconico Live’s SciADV equivalent, Niconiya Live. The murder is so brutal, it’s one the public would be predisposed to look away from or warn others to do the same, but at the same time, this meme phrase was said by viewers, drawing only further attention to it. Think of how if you were to say the phrase “Everyone! Don’t look!” basically everyone would look, or the famous “white bear problem,” where the subject is told *not* to think of a white bear while being shown a photo of it, but of course, they can’t help it. +It’s written as こっちみんな, which is a whole handful to explain.

He was very visibly bloated as well. Now, sumo wrestlers are known for being larger individuals, and as such, the internet quickly went to reference Watabe as a sumo wrestler with the name ごっつぁんデス, i.e. “gottsuan desu.” “Gottsuan” is a term used by sumo wrestlers in order to give thanks, and デス here can be both as “desu,” meaning the English loan word “death,” and “desu,” the Japanese copula that is used to close off a polite sentence. So, the result is a very stupid pun meaning both “death” and “thank you,” with it perhaps also meaning “thanks for the food you provided.” And, well, Watabe was supplied with plenty of that.

So, that’s why we opted to go for an act with sexual connotations that is understandable to an English reader, all while tying it up in a pun. -Minor Indiscretion is made up of a few moving parts. First off, you have “minor,” which can either mean an “underage person,” or “low in severity or importance.” Then, “indiscretion” is an act that can be any number of things, but it’s typically best represented by “worst behavior.” One of the biggest examples of indiscretion would be sexual affairs, giving the term a largely sexual connotation. Therefore, “minor indiscretion” could be viewed in multiple different ways, such as a “minor” act of indiscretion, an act of indiscretion *committed* by a minor, or an act of indiscretion violating a minor. +Minor Indiscretion is made up of a few moving parts.
