the english version has the difficulty amped up, you do less damage, and enemies do more

Not enough fan art or lewd things.

Egomaniacal hack artist who got lucky with a few genuinely great games that are still good even after his senseless butchering.

I haven't touched Popful Mail, but judging by how WD handled Exile, I have a feeling Popful Mail will have busted difficulty.

>> No.3766398

Remember when /vr/ actually got together to translate a pretty nice Popful Mail doujin?

Good times.

You're right!

But someone made a patch to revert the "balance" changes.

Don't be afraid to save scum on the English version. I think I ended up saving at most room entrances and reset if I took too much damage. The game lets you save anywhere except boss fights, so I see it as a fair way to balance the difficulty change.

As far as gameplay goes it's a very average platformer. It was also one of the first games with anime-style cut scenes and voice acting that was ever released for the American console market and is fondly remembered by many people who are into that aesthetic.
