I miss this particular brand of religious/philosophical gibberish. A lot of the weird stuff from this era felt like it was at least trying to have some deeper meaning beyond just being an acid trip simulator.

Definitely a possiblity for a late-year import for me. I'll have to see what else in announced at the Tokyo Game Show next week.

PS1 version has been translated also. Saturn version look's better but the PS1 version is easier to get into thanks to being able to send items back.

It was pretty much a full-blown remake with different graphics and art style, a different POV, and a different tone.

Young Adult? "Yeah"? YAbba-dabba-do?

The first game is very popular among YT retrospective creators and I've never played them.

And who can read Japanese, you mean. Or does this release actually contain an English text over there? Otherwise, I'm kinda out of breath to hold since the first Baroque graced Japanese Switches almost five years ago. We already seem lucky to have got Sting's Riviera & Co here in the west (sans Knights in the Nightmare, stuck in Japan since 2022 as well).

Can’t wait for this! The inclusion of the formerly exclusive PC SHMUP spinoff is the real cherry on top!
