Ohh Resta! I've played this game on raw before, and it's kinda laggy... Is this one still laggy?
Yes. Very.
Anyhoo. The platformer part is... not great, shall we say. I would like to complete this and then use the savefile which someone was nice enough to share here for the gallery unlock (not gonna do a 16-times defeat run on bosses as a cherry on top), but...
As some others have mentioned, I also get kicked out of the game right before the final boss fight would commence. To the people who were able to continue: any advice? Were you in full-screen, started in JP locale (for godknowswhy lol), no use of skipping, or something?
And what the eff is actually going on in the save folder? Already at 600MB+ with 5 save slots used, lol.
--------------------
EDIT: Well... No idea if it's a huge fluke/coincidence, but running in JP locale with Locale Emulator ACTUALLY EFFING ALLOWED ME to commence with the final boss fight after 3 failed attempts (game crashing) without JP locale. With nothing else changed, to my knowledge. So people who get crashes: try that, I guess. I know, stupid, and dunno why; but could be the fix.
Also, an FYI for the gallery unlock savegame from here: don't forget to turn 'CG ANIMATION' ON in the options menu, if you want those newly unlocked scenes of yours not be just static pics (the savefile I assume changes the the settings in options to how they were for the person who provided it). Not that the animation adds
a whole lot to it, frankly. Still.
