I really like this game a lot (for the story lmao). I keep coming back to it every once in a while.
Recently I swapped to linux and I have been able to get the game to run through bottles, but it defaults to the Japanese language and pressing the language dropdown in the settings just opens a blank and un clickable box. I'm sure it's trying to reference something in the game files but not being able to because of the emulator. I know it's a long shot but if anyone has any ideas I would be grateful. Rest of the game seems to work fine btw, I just can't read moonrune.
Edit: got the game working in English. For those interested;
installed wine by running the following in the terminal:
Then right click wherever your MARIONETTE.exe is and open in terminal.
Then to run it enter this into terminal:
Code:
wine start MARIONETTE.exe
The version of wine in my bottles is probably a bit outdated or something.
Man this game is such a treasure! I'm glad I get to play it again and actually understand what is being said! I wish that the dev would make Marionette 2 or something. No other game in this genre has such polished graphics, and the story is peak writing.
