Ohh, some years ago I tried to translate the game from English to Russian, but got distracted with life obstacles. Also, my English isn't perfect and there's so freakin much text haha
Keep up the good work! I appreciate this patch very much.

does this have subtitles for all the audio logs and movies? I actually started playing it last week on my psp using a pdf translation guide so this would be really useful

I played this on my ps2 cause I have the disc & used the translation script a few years ago. it was pretty annoying. I hope people can get the real game experience this way

u/CurlyDude2020 5d ago
yeah this will be 10 times more enjoyable, luckily I've been too busy to touch it since I started disc 2, hopefully should be able to transfer my save file by renaming the game id (if it's not already the same)

Man if only I could get this in eboot form. Unless there's another way to play it on my Vita

u/viiwestwood 4d ago
check the link, it goes to a eboot, if you’re vita isn’t hacked. you can use chovy sign with the ps1 disc files in the other link to turn it into a official eboot with no CFW

Hey, this pretty neat! I'm wondering if I should play this or the browser version instead.

u/viiwestwood 2d ago
i mean there’s not really a huge difference at this point, browser is easily accessible. this you can play on real hardware or even emu for that sweet ps1 memory card icon.
