    Lookit all this info!! aubrey-happy So does the Vita have the old cg’s or new ones?

    I did notice that Fata Morgana has a fascinating and curious release history power-genius I like all the version differences, if I end up really liking it I might poke another version for fun tbh.

      I believe it’s the old ones? And yeah FataMoru’s release history is neat. The first Door was actually released years before the rest of the VN as a demo, which is probably why its art was the least polished in the original release.

      Oh and the translation took years to finish too, by the time it was done the sequel had already come out. Well worth it though because the translation is incredible and, from what I understand about the original Japanese, frankly better.

      Yapping about the translation

      They deliberately made the writing more theatrical and archaic compared to the original which was written in very casual modern Japanese for accessibility reasons. The archaicness fits the VN way better imo.

        Yapping cat-trans That’s super cool about the translation though, so far (still goofin’ with Mell) I do like the style, casual modern any-language would probably be a worse fit.

        I was worried it’d be one of those ‘every release after the original is successively worse’ cases, glad it isn’t ✨

          I do think Requiem and Reincarnation are weaker than the original, but I think they both add enough to be worthwhile and I really enjoyed them anyways. Requiem in particular is very good. Reincarnation is cute but by its nature it’s very different tonally compared to the rest.
