☆★★★★ The culmination of 10+ years of refinement. Metanet seems to have definitively accomplished what they set out to do, and I respect it a lot even though the physics decisions obviously weren't made by an Earthling. It's so beautiful. I'm probably never going to be able to distinguish the individual music tracks, but it all fits. Shout out to all the colorblindness options.

☆☆★★★ An RPG you can kind of just bulldoze through. (So far.) Loading times are improved, but not as much as I'd hoped. Still, actually tolerable compared to the initial release. The font is rough on the eyes, as are a lot of the character graphics. It's amusing, but the localization is...shaky. What a weird game.

★★★★★ There has been a lot of discussion about the sexualization of niche anime RPGs; while the complaints voiced about other games I've played are in no way meritless, I've often found them a bit overblown. This, though—this is the game everyone is actually decrying. I'm infuriated that it's so miserably goddamn wota because it's ALSO really fucking good. Missing QOL features betray its age—no auto-navigate, poor/absent history logging. I can't NOT rate it highly, though. Fuck.

☆★★★★ Spartan and single-minded to the point of obsessiveness. Also very cute. I don't have anything negative to say about how it plays so far, but I can't be assed to shout praises of it from the rooftops either. The remixed ST is nothing to write home about, but the original is nearly unlistenable so good looking out on that.

☆☆☆★★ I mean it's competent but everything about it is also pretty ungainly; the game itself and this re-release. You can't play the JP version in high score mode without changing your console's language. Region leaderboards are mixed which is Real Weird if there actually IS a secret boss in the JP version that the others lack. Game claimed I had no online scores submitted (despite the trophies!) until I experimentally switched console languages. Huh?

If you're gonna force the use of quicksaves, your game better damn well NOT crash. warping back home a lot more now, I guess!!! Achievements: 2 / 28 (7%)

☆☆★★★ Skillfully cultivates a sense of fear. Unfortunately, the source of that fear quickly shifts from the roaming murderous spirits to lost progress, whether caused by a warningless encounter too close to outrun or a game crash eating the quicksave (and setting you back further than if you'd died). Speaking of dying, it's odd that a survival-horror game would reward deathwarping. This may be because Vita, but it's difficult to see anything. Overall, works if you don't peel back too many layers.

ah, that's neat to hear about the art; the original's visuals do feel a little constrained at times. anything that brings out the bizarrely awesome setting is a good thing, since that's one of the msot immediately distinctive things about the game. you certainly can't be like "oh, a bullet hell with time-slowdown starring gender-flipping espers with neon butterfly wings in an alchemical steampunk world? yawn, another one of those..."

whoa, another person on this site that has seen the lovely ending to coloris

i've still never played espgaluda 2 despite loving the first one probably above all other shooters. how does it compare to the original? in terms of what changed and what stayed the same, i mean; obviously you are pretty bullish on the game itself.

Obviously, I like video games too much to ever play them.
