A piece of me died. :'(
And they took down the OP from Youtube amazingly fast, but at least that's expected... There's an easy way to put a JPN veil on your computer though, right? Trick a game into thinking your computer is Japanese? Anything that doesn't involve importing a Japanese computer? A modchip or something, please? Dang. On a brighter note, the OP is amazing, but I thought Rewrite would be a more downbeat game, like Clannad. The OP seems a bit too upbeat if my guesses are right. I just think the idea of flora is more calming and soothing. And yay, we have a Pico III/ Botan II. |

Sure, the Japanese fan went go over the edge and ran-over/stabbed people in Akihabara is now common knowledge, but what the heck happened in the west to justify these draconian measures?

RapeLay.
Apparently the vast majority of eroge creators are blaming the Japanese government's increased attempts to censor their work upon Western pressures, and to combat this, they've decided to make everything JAPAN ONRY. Edit: My mistake. Last edited by Tyabann; 2010-06-25 at 21:46. |

Still, let me emphasize again - it's an all-ages game. This has NOTHING to do with Rapelay - it is essentially just a story. It is technically in their right to "region lock", but they've crossed a line they really don't need to cross here, unless they're serious about licensing this somehow.

Bah, half 5 in the morning, I can't go on tonight Not having AGTH is such a pain.
Anyway, couple of quick impressions up to where I am (which I think is near the end but I really don't know). There's no real spoilers in here, but just in case there's anyone who really wants to know nothing about the demo I'm gonna spoiler this: Spoiler:

And regardless of whether Rewrite is an all-ages game, Key is a company that produces eroge. Man this sounds awesome. Really hope we get an English translation for at least the demo... |

Karma for shrugging when I heard about this crap in the first place, I suppose.

Maybe they ARE planning to localize. That'd be nice. |

Yeah, well, they can't help what their parent company's pushing, I guess : P. If it's like this I doubt it's even an engine flag they can turn off.
Localization would be awesome, although if a comment I read on an article about the MangaGamer Higurashi licensing is true, Key wants, erm, quite a lot of money out of such a deal ($1,000,000 or something like that) .
