For anyone who has bought this: is there an option to switch the game language to be entirely in Japanese, either through the in-game options or by right-clicking the game on Steam, clicking properties, and changing the option in the "Language" tab (assuming there is one)?
What's the difference between the normal version and the directx 8 version?
There's no Japanese support I'm afraid. As for the achievement page not being up yet, it looks like the game is currently marked as 'unreleased' even though it's out, so it's not letting achievements show up or letting screenshots be published as Public. This should be fixed pretty soon.
^^^^^ You'll unlock Hard when you beat the game once, Nightmare when you beat Hard, and Inferno when you beat Nightmare, unless I'm mistaken.
The normal (DX9) version is a little prettier but the DX8 version is a little more friendly to those with really ancient or low-power systems.
It's funny some of us have waited years for an English version to come out and now people asks for Japanese , no offense intended.
I'll try to buy this the next month, I'm broken right now D:
I really wish there was an OS X version.

I'm honestly a lot more motivated to pursue the more ridiculous ones now that I can play the game on a TV. This is the perfect sorta game to just spaz out and play for hours at a time.
But man, I really hope we get more stuff like this. Falcom stuff is rad, and really... I'd just like to see more Japanese games on Steam. This game succeeding can only be a good thing.
So what's the "native" resolution of this game, if such thing applies? I know the aspect ratio is 4:3 but what would give me 1:1 pixel ratio? Hard to know with all the sprite filtering and zooming in/out. Right now I can't decide between 1024x768, 1400x1050, or 1600x1200.
It works with force feedback on some other gamepads, but not 360.Game looks great at 1920x1080 with max FSAA. I was expecting an ugly mess from some posts. The game is so cute! Charming style.
Does the game use rumble? I mistakenly unclicked "Use game pad" and the feeback option unclicked with it, and I could never turn it back on. Using 360 controller.
See how important this game is, people?
It has literally broken this person.
Been wanting to try the series for a long while now, but never have got around to. Is this a good entry into the franchise?
Somehow I thought this was another achievement..."4 friends already own this game"

Aw. Oh, well, not too big of a deal.It works with force feedback on some other gamepads, but not 360.
Of course.is this playable with a keyboard? if so, i'm in.

Weird, if I use 1920x1080 the game stretches, but 1680x1050 gives me the black bars.
The best action/rpg ever. The biggest badass OST in any game.
One is a widescreen resolution, the other isn't. I'd stick with the second as the game doesn't look good stretched.
Thanks!Since the achievement list isn't live right now, sure, here you go:
Uhh, what? Those are both widescreen resolutions (16:9 and 16:10).
I can add one more to that number. What's your Steam name? If you don't mind, anyway."4 friends already own this game"

I guess I'll have to see the difference later on. Game looks good to me at 1920x1080, though. Maybe because I haven't seen it in its original state to compare. But even then... looks niceI'd stick with the second as the game doesn't look good stretched.
Yup. I did miss one of the attacks in the tutorial. I accidentally skipped it. It's the one where he stabs his sword on the ground or something. If I don't figure it out, I'll ask if anyone knows how to do it.FWIW, I did not have to map buttons on the 360 pad.. they were already mapped appropriately.
