In case you guys missed the Humble Bundle sale, don't worry, Indiegala has you covered.

Advent Dark Force includes all of the original Fairy Fencer F, so there is no reason to buy that, right?
What's with all the DLC? Are those just cheat items?

Yeah, Advent Dark Force is the very significantly improved remaster of the original, so you don't have to buy and play the original at all.

Some of the DLC involve extra characters joining in, which might be to your taste. A lot of it is just cheatLC or extra outfits and such, not strictly necessary. If you're doing all the cheevos for Re; Birth 2 and 3, the ones that concern the Stella's Dungeon minigame would be helpful (specifically, Histy's Rescue Plans for R;B 2 and Histy's Emergency Aid Plan Pack for R;B 3). You don't need the exp up parts of those packs, but if you just want to powerlevel and ruin the game's difficulty pacing, knock yourself out.

I dunno, the speedrun made it look ok, at least (even when the guy managed to softlock the first time around 50 minutes in; you're only seeing the second run here).

Speed runs aren't really a great way to judge how a game plays. But yeah it shouldn't be hard to be better than Nep U or Zombies.

Good as new.
I'm getting it on PC so there's no special editions for me. But I'm really looking forward to it.

I wish they had done a proper RPG in 4GO in the vein of .Hack or something, but I'll have to live with this.

I guess a figure is coming.


I decided to go with a standard copy from Best Buy for $40 instead of the $80 LE this time. If they're going to save money cutting the original English VAs, I'm going to save money on the game.

It was the VAs own choice not to do the character again. Not that I think you shouldn't save money anyway, because LEs are a waste (in the West, anyway).

The Western LEs have had significantly better swag than the JP ones, so if swag is your thing, gogogo

Erin did it by choice, Tara Platt is just not getting a call back after being unavailable for one game.

New Vert sounds a good bit like Old Vert, but I do miss Old Mitsuru Vert.

(Seems the only change I can see so far is who's on the banner for the sale.)

I like the premise of the new Nep game but watching some videos the levels have this kind of bare, empty feel. Did Tamsoft improve any or do I know the answer to my own question already?

I have the LE preordered, and I have no faith in Tamsoft.

They're basically more expansive variants of what you get in the mainline games, except a little more maze-like. I know that that they're not interesting enough to hold up under having to do them over and over for quests and item materials.

For some reason I had this weird idea this game was getting a release on Steam at the same time. Guess not. I wonder what I was confusing it with.

I guess I get to wait a while longer.

I already pre ordered the LE. So they already have my money. But to those who already played it.
