Yeah, I'm talking about the original as well, hence the "II". Though, there does seem to be confusion at times. Just yesterday, I clarified something in that regard on VNDB, as some entry was referring to "Rance 2" but was actually about the original game. When it comes to playing the games, I prefer to do so in release order (though, I did play Sengoku Rance first), so I -> II -> III etc with 02 and 02 Kai later down the line. As for "all the changes are better"...the graphics can only ever be subjectively judged. Personally, I like Alicesoft's mid 90s to early 00s style the best and I find the CGs in Evenicle, for instance, dreadfully generic. When it comes to MG, funnily enough, I'm not a fan and would prefer fan translations. That's because I own all the Rance games physically (excluding the freeware ones), don't buy digital games and think their physical versions are extremely bad (cheap amaray + awful cover with too much text). My position may be a bit weird but I don't think double-dipping is worth it at all, even though the games are way cheaper (I paid 7500 Yen for Rance 5D (also in a cheap amaray but that's only because it was a short game) + fees + international shipping + import tax *cough*). Also, my historical interest is very strong in general, so I hope some other games will eventually be translated as well (Little Vampire would be a good one).

Sounds perfectly fine. I'm used to waiting, hehe. And yep, I checked those out yesterday as well. Thank you for providing them.

Says my nickname is taken or invalid characters. The first one isn't true and I only use standard letters, so...no idea.
