Anyone played with the unofficial translation patch? How is it?

>> No.4404447

I 'member there were two patches, one that called the amazon girl Riesz and the sprite healer Carlie and another that called the amazon Lise and the sprite Charlotte. What was up with that?

>> No.4404470

Fucking amazing game. Just don't expect the characters you pick to create substantial plot differences outside of the very beginning and some stuff near the end-game.

It isn't a big deal because you'll want to play through all the story branches just because the gameplay is so fun.

Man, I remember the first time I played that game, and realized areas changed from day to night in real time w/o changing screens. Fucking magical to a younger me. I'd never seen anything like that in a console game from that era.

You must have it backwards, because the one I played used Lise and Carlie and wouldn't have had enough character space for Charlotte.

Translating リース as "risz" is eotena assault tier idiocy, especially since it's a term used in connection with LEASING. Literally nobody except retard "muh nakama" fansubbers would translate it as anything but "lease", or if you want to turn that into a proper name, "Lise".

He did start his own Bahamut Lagoon translation but got bored and put it on indefinite hold.

He played with Dai Kaijyuu Monogatari and basically reverse engineered the whole game, but again got bored and abandoned it.

Then FEOEZ where he promised to do it, got everyone's hopes up and proceeded to do nothing for years.

Der Langrisser is pretty excellent though. The original game is fairly bug ridden, the only major problem left in the translation was some VRAM corruption bug they weren't able to pinpoint.

Didn't know he did DQ5. There is some story about him teasing a DQ translation that didn't exist though.

Nigga's got the best classes in the game after Kevin. Two have debuffs up the ass, one's got Deadly Weapon which lowers even the final bosses' max HP, one's got Silver Dart that does 999 on Lich without trying and costs practically no HP, and finally you've got Wanderer for the almighty Aura Wave

This is somewhere in my backlog, right alongside other Square SFC RPGs that aren't Final Fantasy. I need to get around to playing them, but I don't have a good set up for it right now.

Is it ridiculously easy like the other Mana games? I got bored of Legend of Mana about 1/3 of the way through and ended up trading it for something else.

It can be hard your first playthrough, but once you figure out how to abuse the Black Market and get your first class change done you've basically beaten the game

Actually, the second class change is technically "hard" because it depends on a random item drop, but I always got impatient and used gameshark codes to get the the item seeds instead
