Done.
I appreciate it, Taskforce
. I didn't find any way to modify the report, so I thought redoing it and asking to delete the old one would be the easiest way.

Oh, and if you wish and have time, Akualung, feel free to give the community a bit of info on your impressions of the fully translated game (script and lists), with due diligence in the spoiler department.
I don't consider myself very good when it comes to make reviews, but I'll try do my best. First of all I'd like to say that the mix of real Earth history and standard rpg fiction works very well and also it's amusing how a considerable amount of snes rpgs during that period are set in a world identical or resembling the actual Earth map. I've find the translation to be top-notch, it makes the plot easy to follow and the dialogs are consistent with every character way of speaking and their personality.
One only little thing I've noticed is that, during the third episode, I found it a little difficult to understand what was the purpose of the party members during that episode. Perhaps it was because many of the info that connects with what happens in that episode is found in the previous one by reading some of the books in
. So, many of that information is found via text info-dumps instead of experiencing it yourself through the gameplay.
Another curious thing is, the game is divided into
episodes but the first and second one seem to be fused into one, so you start playing the game until you reach to a point where it says "end of chapter 2 - start of chapter 3" and you're like "Really? When did chapter 1 end, then?". Don't know if it's intended to be that way, or bad planning during the game development process, etc.
Some of the episodes are slower than others and there are mechanics that look a little "half-cooked" (like the feature of finding monsters who join your party at times, as there's only 4 or 5 to be found in the end). But I've found it, in general, a game with a very decent plot and worth playing to anyone fond of the rpgs of that time.
