Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I remember having this on my Vita. No idea why they're waiting until June considering it was already ported to Switch last year.
And there is already a fan translation for those with hacked Switches.

Regardless, I'll def. be picking this up.

Pre-orders for the physical version that comes with a four-CD soundtrack are open, by the way.

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Is there anything new in this port vs. the PS4 and PC versions of the game? I get the sense that there's no reason to buy it again if one doesn't care about portability.

Great game, though. It's not necessarily one of Falcom's best, but it's got a satisfying gameplay loop.

Great game that fell under a lot of people's radar. Got it on PS4 already.
Yep, this is low key one of my favorite Falcom games. It actually has a likable MC, pretty good story and gameplay.. and ok dungeons.

… I already have PS4 Special Edition, PC, Vita (the OG version)…. but I am still tempted to snag English version physical, lol.

Edit: For physical, any idea if there is going to be a normal version or just the one from Aksys store?
