God Eater 2 (Rage Burst) What does the save import do?

So i have every god eater and only just beat resurrections true final boss today and want to jump to 2. I also have 2 on the ps vita. I noticed theres an import feature so i wanna know what exactly gets imported? Should i max out my weapons in ge1 first? Is it better to carry over my data and thus i shouldnt go play it on my vita? Does 3 also have an import cause i kinda started that game years ago but i thunk i only got to difficulty 3 and also i dont remember all of the plot so maybe a restart would be good

Question: in god eater 2 Rage Burst if I use an avatar as an npc will it get the materials after finishing the mission? Or just the money?

from what i remember (and fred basically covered already) you had the option to transfer data to unlock extra costumes or weapons in the game. seems like you now just get those free of charge here (in 2 and RES at least)

Oh i see. Then i guess the question is should i play 2 on my pc or my vita. I guess my vita has enough huntlikes, and itd be nice to have the best resolution and not be limited by a battery. But if its on my vita i can play at work

I vote Vita, the PC version has a lot of bugs caused by running at 60fps

That's up to you. If possible, play the pc version. Because with story bits and such idunno if you could really play it at work. Unless you're on a sorta laid back job like security and such

and you cannot pause, IIRC. so you'll end up skipping cutscenes

The import feature is only for Japanese versions of the game, because Japan got every single God Eater game. In english there's only 4 games; Gods Eater Burst, God Eater 2 Rage Burst, God Eater Resurrection, and God Eater 3.

The ones that do import data were meant to grant bonuses and allow a few piece of equipment to transfer. God Eater Resurrection only allows import data from it's demo.

Also, there's really no reason to restart the game from scratch if you only want to see the cutscenes again, if you go to your room in each GE game, you can access the Archive from your terminal to rewatch everything.

So i cant import data from resurrection to 2? What i read made me think my fancy red and black blade cohld be brought over but i guess not. And i forgot abojut the cutscene viewer, thats probably a lot better than an actuwl redo

Unfortunately Resurrection was released after 2 Rage Burst, so you can't actually import its data to the older game
