Just finished playing Lunar 2 a few minutes ago and surprised to see this one!

Can't wait to have my hands on this one.

Hope they applied the gameplay upgrades on Lunar 2 to this one!

That would be awesome if they could do this, but I'll be picking this one up regardless.

You sure? I only saw them under the 1996 copyright on the scan, 2009 only had GameArts and the new character artist.

Sprites and perspective feel a little Grandia-ish. Still, I think the backgrounds in the Saturn/PS1 version are better… JAM (who IS making this btw) doesn't exactly instill confidence either. I wish they'd just release the superior Sega CD originals on VC somehow…

Haha thanks, Claymore was great until the very end (stupid original endings!). I agree, though; Working Designs did a phenomenal job. There's a reason each of their titles took a few years to release! They poured their love into every game they worked on and I praise them for it. I really do miss them; they would have been a great compliment to companies like Atlus and NISA if they could have released things a little faster.

although workin designs did so, they themselves were very considerate of keeping the feeling of the game intact. even if u translate things word for word it may not come out the same or have people tipping thei heads sidewarys going "huh?"
its a good balance between true to word translation and capturing the feeling. working designs also did a great job of "understanding" the game before they did stuff to it. now days u just see people translating the game when they see it.
not saying WD was perfect but they did a fantastic job at this at a time where so many RPGs from Japan didn't make it here.

I translate in real time for lectures for many incoming professors into town and i usually have to spend time with them if i can or listen to their work to understand what they are thinking and what kind of person they are.

id rather have a true to essence translation than literal in a game like Lunar where emotions fly all over the place.

and ur char avatar i havnt' seen that anime in awhile i should go back to it lol

That's true. I've never been disappointed with XSEED's works!

There is a sense of plausibility, you know. WD's localizations for the useless NPC's line pretty much destroys that. At least keep it within the realm of the game settings. That's the gist of the those who don't like them. Me, I didn't mind it when I played it, but I wouldn't ask for a 2nd helping of them.
