Much more fast paced than I expected, but the OP song isn't bad at all I would say.
The sequence itself is a bit classic, but quite interesting: I didn't expect so much focus on Shizuru and Lucia, and we have... what, antagonists...?

Hopefully, the demo isn't as short as Little Buster

It looks awesome... which is to say, about as expected.

I love the song.

leodamine · 2010-06-25, 09:58

the game looks really cool, but it'll prolly be a long time before we get a translation patch for it. Ah well, guess I need to learn moonspeak to try and understand it T.T

Varion · 2010-06-25, 10:31

Well, that's that. Looks like this will be the last Key game I buy, they've gone to the dark side.

It was fun while it lasted, but I'll give my money to another company that doesn't go out their way to stop me playing their games.

Gordy Lechance · 2010-06-25, 10:32

1) Good to see Key sticking to their cultural guns and spelling the English names in the correct Japanese family-personal name order.

2) Air was Summer.
Kanon was Winter
Clannad was Spring

When the heck is Autumn going to be covered?

Archon_Wing · 2010-06-25, 10:37

Omg, Ryukishi07, Key. **Looks at intro and Lucia**

*Faints* *Life is good*

ameskitty · 2010-06-25, 10:49

* Main idea came from a female (for once!)
* Ryukishi's on it
* It's all-ages
* It's widescreen - and 16:10 at that
= instant preorder

.

Liking the OP, but the delicious resolution is a double-edged sword. It's exactly the screen area of my laptop...which means no room for a kanji translation window : (. At least I'm slowly getting better at kanji (perhaps at about the same pace this game is being developed

), and it's voiced (...I'd assume?).

This game is supposed to be all-ages. What problem could they possibly have with non-Japanese people playing it? O__o (I mean, I can understand if they don't want people translating it, but...urgh.)

Most likely they're just implementing this as standard from now on. Rewrite's demo seems to run off a new engine (SiglusEngine) rather than the standard RealLive they're used up until now. Guess it's just programmed into that.

Kudo Wafutaa also has a foreigner block but it's a much simpler one built into RealLive that's pretty easy to get around.

I figured it was something like that, but that doesn't make it less frustrating that all-ages-only players are getting hit now, too :/.

**Klashikari** · 2010-06-25, 11:10

Okay, so visual arts has taken out the Opening already. That was quite fast, in fact, I'm more surprised there was anyone working at that time to report the video.

I don't even think LB's OP was taken out that fast, but well...

Leo_Otaku · 2010-06-25, 12:31

uughh >.> can't see it bahhhh

farios · 2010-06-25, 12:39

A little question, do they already announce the seiyuus for this game?(I'm hoping for another Midorikawa in Key game)

Orophin · 2010-06-25, 12:49

I found another link for the OP: http://zoome.jp/excelsior1031/diary/386

kyosak · 2010-06-25, 13:41

Any cracks to get around the region lock yet?
I haven't even tried installing the game yet.

So setting my regional and language settings to Japanese isn't enough? Has to be Japanese version of Windows?

Eater of All · 2010-06-25, 13:48

Looks like there'll likely to be a bit of action in this one. Also, I get the impression that vampires are going to be involved.

Sigh, I guess the Japanese companies are still pretty traumatized by the crap that happened a while back.

Latest blog

Why make an 18+ game now when they can get all the otaku to buy the adult version again in a year's time.

Yeah, it has to be a Japanese version of Windows in theory. There's a crack out if people look hard enough though.

That was fast. I was expecting it to take the weekend.

boggart · 2010-06-25, 14:26

I've received my copy now, and after installing the Rewrite demo, I get that stupid message about the Japanese version of Windows 7 needed. *dies*

I hope there'll be a way around this, after spending all that money on it...

Wow, that sucks

Well knowing how things might turnout, someone is bound to find a way around it or a crack solution will inevitably be created... hopefully.

Btw, thanks Orophin for the link. I was looking for that for a while when the other one went down.
