I'm in. Going to 100% this thing, which means finding a good guide. Because I'm pretty sure it's impossible otherwise.
And nice job on the trailer, might be Hatsuu's best one yet.

I've been trying to find such guide for weeks, even asked on a few LTTP topics but no one replied.

There's a guide on Gamefaqs that tells you pretty much everything you need to do in order to get a perfect bracer score:

Now they just need to release SC, say Winter '14.I've been waiting for too long.
Wyrdwad is betting on early 2015. Hope that is not the case but he's usually pretty optimistic.
That's great, thank you very much.

The day has finally come at last! This long night is finally over!
CEG isn't required at at all and at the risk of being obnoxiously pedantic Steam Cloud is something I'd label a client-level feature rather than a Steamworks feature. As for the tech support concerns, well, Larian manages just fine with Dragon Commander (and it's not the only example of a Steamworks-supporting game that's DRM-free), but it's understandable that Xseed would prefer to remove as many factors from the diagnostic process as possible.
The Aeana seal of approval.

Just beat the PSP version of this game about a month ago. Great game that particularly shines in the characters and story department. Took me about 60 hours to finish IIRC. Highly recommended.
And yes, I will double-dip and play through the PC version someday.
TiTS FC being released this soon gives me hope that the English PC version of SC might just come out late this year or early next year as wyrdwad hoped.

Sara, you are the absolute best! The way you mash up the best of the PC and PSP bits on these Falcom Steam releases is... you're making definitive versions here and I love it!
I also appreciate that you keep working on the games till everything is perfect. I remember you had Oath in Felghana running in widescreen but the sprites and text art were stretched. Then next time I played everything was proper aspect ratio without stretching and I was like, "Yay, Sara is awesome!"
So basically this post is about how great you are.
Running into people who run the game with AND without Steam open, and notice inconsistent behavior between these situations... is a thing. You can technically remove the DRM entirely and keep Steam features, but then there is that inconsistency problem between usage scenarios. There's also the fact that if someone somehow gets ahold of the Steam version without owning it and Steam DRM is not present in any form, it will still try to use the Steam features if this person has Steam open, and they won't function correctly. (This can be checked for, but there's still the former problem.)
One approach is to not have the Steam DRM and instead use the "do we need to restart the game through Steam" check, but I wouldn't call that DRM-free, as it's still a manner of it in a sense, just rather weaker...
Yeah I am thinking with the 15% and the fact I really want more of this type of game I might jump in day and let it collect digital dust while I finish The last of us.

So what if i get the steam ver it wont rum very properly without the client being online?
Steam's offline mode works just fine. It's the same as any Steam DRMed game in that regard. It won't work with the client entirely closed though.
Because I love Ryudo.
I have a question about the battle system in this. It looks like it has movement, positioning and knockbacks as factors in it. If you were to attack, for example, could you move freely in your movement range to approach the enemy from different directions, or does the character just approach in a straight line no matter what?

Yeah, I really appreciate the effort she's putting into these games, and I can't stress that enough.
I'm looking forward to see what she does with SC, adding the extra characters for the end of the game seems like it will be an interesting challenge. Given everything she has done so far I don't doubt she'll be able to pull it off.
Hatsuu is an XSEED employee, and that is her personal twitter account.

I thought so too. Should do a good job of selling people on the game.
Heroes is the word you're looking for to describe Sara and all the great folks responsible for bringing us this and SC.
2016 then
I didn't say it wasn't. Like I said, I understand that it's a support decision. I don't doubt that CEG is there to ensure a consistent experience; I was simply clarifying that the presence of Steam/Steamworks features doesn't mean that CEG is actually required at any level.
As an aside, I edited my post a bit as it seemed a little combative but you happened to catch it in its original state, haha. I apologise if I came across as confrontational.
Edit: Oh good, my enter key is working again.
The Japanese PC release is better than that IMO.

Looks so good.
Fucking finally. Still have my $20 saved from December.
