But isn't the VNDS version of the original 2004 release, not of Realta Nua? I don't know about you, but I wouldn't be very comfortable reading a VN with sex scenes in public... Also RN had extra music and CGs.
Anyway, I got Heaven's Feel to work in English with Kirikiroid2. Using the restoration patch R9 makes the translation work although I doubt it can be played through the full game because there will probably some crashes along the way that needs an xp3filter.tjs. I tested how it is by playing through the prologue and so far there's no major problems. It crashed a few time whenever a dialogue was voiced but other than that, it seems to work fine.
Using the official patch on HF like Fate and UBW won't work because the app itself can't recognize the patch files within the faterealtanua_savedata folder. They're playable, but only in Japanese. Heaven's Feel is the only one playable in English with Kirikiroid2.
Looks like Type Moon is going to port Fate to every single electronic device on earth. I'm waiting for HD remastered version on PS4 in the next 5 years. Wish they would just move on and continue with Mahoyo, but I guess it's hard to stop milking it when it generates so much money.
In other news, there's an onscripter port on android that plays Tsukihime almost perfectly. It's called Onscripter Plus ( =com.onscripter.plus&hl=en) and it's a big improvement over the really outdated original onscripter port from sourceforge. Compatibility is crap at the moment, but for games that are playable, they are pretty good. Monster Girl Quest have weird buzzing sound, but is playable. Narcissu, Tsukihime, and Kagetsu Tohya are fully playable with perfect sound (old onscripter port bad quality sound). I've tried some other Japanese doujin games and they work as well.
This one is debatable. Realta Nua on PC uses the Hollow Ataraxia engine while PS2 RN did not. Also Realta Nua isn't exactly a completely different product compared to the original 2004 Fate/stay night.
edit- I got the Realta Nua Fate game to work. Used patch file from FHA and the game booted. Only problem is having the game to play in English. Tried moving the patch files to the faterealtanua_savedata folder, but it doesn't work. Tried moving it to the game folders and it obviously also didn't work. If I may ask how did you get HF to play in English? Also, do you have any other patches?
I'm not sure. I added the patches myself so the number of patch(x).xp3 may be different. I know one of them which is the voice.xp3. The other is the Realta Nua patch which is around 302mb. In my case, it was patch8.xp3. If you delete those two files, the regular Fate should be playable on Kirikirioid2. Those two files crash the game because there's no patch to workaround them to make them playable. It will either not boot or crash as soon as a voice plays.
Fate/stay night is a Japanese visual novel game developed by Type-Moon for Windows on January 30, 2004. Initially released as an adult game, a version titled Fate/stay night Ralta Nua (Irish for "new star"), which replaced the sexual content with extensive visual and narrative elements, completed the story with an ending scene, and featured voice actors from the 2006 anime series, was released on April 19, 2007 for the PlayStation 2.[2] It was later ported to Windows (as a trilogy covering the three storylines: Fate, Unlimited Blade Works and Heaven's Feel) in 2011, PlayStation Vita in 2012, and iOS and Android in 2015. A remastered version of Ralta Nua is set to release for Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam in 2024, marking the first time the game will be available outside Japan. The plot focuses on a young mage named Shirou Emiya who becomes a warrior in a battle between "Servants" known as the Holy Grail War. Shirou bonds with a heroine through each route and confronts different adversaries participating in the war. The author, Kinoko Nasu, summarised Fate/stay night as:
"...the story about legendary heroes and 'a boy meets a girl.'... The main theme is 'conquering oneself.' There are three story lines in Fate, each has a different themes. The first one is the 'oneself as an ideal.' The second one is 'struggling with oneself as an ideal.' The third one is 'the friction with real and ideal.' This game is describing the growth of the main character Emiya Shirou. The first storyline shows his slanted mind, the next storyline shows his resolve, and the last storyline gives another resolution for him as a human. All three storylines are essentially equal, but they have different forms."[3]
Fate/stay night's gameplay requires little interaction from the player as most of the game's duration is spent reading the text that appears, representing either dialogue between the characters, narration, or the inner thoughts of the protagonist. Often, players will come to a "decision point" where they are given a chance to choose from options displayed on the screen, typically two to three at a time. The time between these decision points is variable. During these times, gameplay pauses until a choice is made that furthers the plot in a specific direction. There are three main plot lines that the player will have the chance to experience, one for each of the heroines in the story. To view all three plot lines, the player must replay the game multiple times and choose different choices during the decision points to progress the plot in an alternate direction. Finishing one route will unlock the next one. When interacting with the heroines in each route, an "affection meter" is created, which is raised by giving them an answer that pleases them. A "True Ending" can be unlocked depending on the player's affection.[4]
There are multiple ways in which the player can lose the game, including Shirou's death or a decision that causes the heroine to be murdered. Should this happen, the player is taken to an area called the Tiger Dojo (タイガー道場, Taigā Dōjō) where Taiga Fujimura and Illyasviel von Einzbern give the player hints about what they should do to survive in the next attempt to complete the game.[5]
The story revolves around Shirou Emiya, a hardworking and honest teenager who unwillingly enters a to-the-death tournament called the Fifth Holy Grail War, where combatants fight with magic and Heroes from throughout history for a chance to have their wishes granted by the eponymous Holy Grail. Orphaned and the sole survivor of a massive fire in Fuyuki City as a child, Shirou was taken in by a retired mage named Kiritsugu Emiya, who would die years later. His perceived responsibility to those who died and his salvation through his father formed a strong desire for justice and peace in him. Thus, he earnestly trains his body and minuscule ability with magic to someday greatly help others, even if people often abuse his generosity at his stage.
One evening, after seeing two devastatingly powerful beings trading blows at his school with swords and spears, he is attacked, as witnesses to the Holy Grail War are generally supposed to be eliminated. Chased to his home by the spear-wielding warrior Lancer and barely able to avoid his attacks, Shirou is about to be killed when he is saved by Saber. Saber, the personification of a renowned figure in history (Arturia Pendragon in her case), was created to aid participants in the War. In her supposedly accidental summoning and the appearance of the marks on Shirou's hand, his entry as a Master into the Holy Grail War is formalized.[6]
The first of the three heroines, Saber is a mighty warrior who keeps her identity secret, hence her substitute name after her role as a member of the Saber class. She also serves as the route's servant protagonist. She was the victor of the Fourth Holy Grail War with another Master and claimed to be the strongest out of all Servants in the Saber Class. However, Shirou is against Saber's constant aim for conflicts with other servants and instead seeks to ally with Rin. Shirou drops his pacifism when he discovers that his former friend, Shinji Matou, is a Master with the Servant Rider, aiming to sacrifice all students from their school to increase Rider's powers.
Following Shinji and Rider's defeat, Shirou learns that Saber cannot fight at full strength without exchanging Mana (magical energy) with her Master. During a confrontation with Master Illya and her Servant Berserker, Shirou passes Saber his Mana and later assists her in defeating the enemy by projecting one of Arturia's swords in combat. As Shirou seeks to keep Saber in their world, he learns from the priest Kirei Kotomine that the Holy Grail is cursed. It is revealed that Shirou's late guardian, Kiritsugu, once used Saber to destroy the Grail. However, it instead caused the fire where Shirou lost his family.
Shirou rejects the idea of accepting his wish for the Holy Grail as he decides to accept his past and not forget Saber. Moved by Shirou, Saber also rejects the Holy Grail, believing she should not change Britain's history. As Kotomine aims to use Illya's body to recreate the Holy Grail, Shirou and Saber confront him and his Servant, Gilgamesh.[7] Following Shirou's and Saber's victories, Shirou orders Saber to destroy the Grail. This causes Saber to go back to her last moments before her death.[8] In the Ralta Nua version of the game, a new ending can be unlocked where Shirou becomes a heroic spirit in order to meet Saber in the afterlife of heroes, Avalon.[9]
The second of the three heroines is Rin Tohsaka, a model student and idol of Shirou's school who is secretly a mage and Master of Archer in the Holy Grail War. Her Servant Archer serves as the Servant protagonist of the route. She descends from a long, distinguished line of mages. Though she lacks a formal magic education, she is strong and gifted in her own right. Classmates dub Rin "The Ice Queen" for her cold, unreachable persona at school; however, this is simply a front to hide her actual status as a mage. Her presence in the story is established after Lancer mortally wounds Shirou at school. Upon seeing him, she revives him due to his connection with Sakura Matou, with whom Rin is closely acquainted. The two become allies in the war, unaware of Archer's true identity as an adult Shirou from one of the series' numerous alternate universes.
