update: didn't start re-playing yggdra union.

started playing Riviera: The Promised Land instead for the first time.

I love Dept. Heaven games. They're unique, have horrible item management, damn near demand you have a guide for all the missable shit, the continuity is a vague suggestion at best and overall perfect just the way they are.

The dev team behind them have such a unique handprint with how they make games from art style to sound and UI choices, even when those games individually turn out very different across the board. Just look at the clusterfuck that is Knights in the Nightmare and then try to remember they intended to make a PC MMO canon to the series at one point.

It sucks that Blaze Union never got a translation.
