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
