Reading the synopsis made me go look up the games. Shame. Apparently it's a pretty popular series, and it looks like something I'd like to play... but... Only one was ever localized. It's actually a rerelease of the first and third games in the series, so that'd be cool. Except it's apparently some kind of bastard compression of the two, with a ridiculous amount of cut content (shorter than either game alone!) and other flaws that make it way worse than the original games. ... Not even any fan translations to fall back on.
Update: it's not likely to be updated on this week for ch3 by duanshu, chapter 4~6 are on partial draft at moment. wow, its still like that?... don't ask me this game was obviously cult-classic, so much weird thing happened for this title with their game code text insertion was hard for them. i wish miracle does happen in future.
