Opiate has the most thought out, intelligent opinions in this thread.

Naturally, most of GAF hates them

Translation source apparently from animesuki, can't find it though.



The new scan w/ the Blitz stuff and this translation has given me faith that the game will be good, but I still don't like the character design, even if its VC1's character designer. I also don't like the whole school thing.

I love how much of it talks about gameplay enhancements in the wake up a multipage bitchfest about technical power being inherently tied to gameplay. Sigh...

Can't wait until we get some direct-feed shots and gameplay movies. I'm pretty hopeful of the title looking very pretty on the PSP.

I don't get the bitching about VC2's characters art style... it looks identical to the first game to me. :/

I know the new Dengeki is due out on the 18th, were there any leaks of that?
