Oh,no not yet. Im so used to be able to save anytime when it comes to VN's so I thought something was wrong lol.
Rance games are very rooted in traditional RPG mechanics and this being a remake of a game like 30 years ago it shows its roots. So saving at inns or in certain locations or when certain menus are available in most of the games though usually not as weird or strict like saving at an inn.

I thought Rance 01 and 02 will be 1 full game lol.
They are full games just separate downloads and not packed in the same executable. Same with how they released the english version of 5D and VI, you had to buy both together whether physically or digitally, but they were separate downloads and installs.

01 and 02 are much smaller games than Quest on top of the fact Quest will include the Magnum expansion. Simply 01 and 02 progressed way quicker while they ran into programming amongst other issues likely due to the size and depth of the game and its mechanics. Due to MG's release schedule and usually trying to spread out releases especially within the same series is the main issue with why Quest will likely take a few months. Quest only just finished beta a few months ago but 01+02 were done before even that. 01+02 are pretty good entry points though and nice remakes so they could use this as decent marketing and preparation to try and get maybe more people and hype for Quest since IX and a potential 03 are likely a ways away but only effective if they release Quest by say December or January.
Quest has been done with TL for almost a year, they "left it" out of beta for months and the TL'er confirmed it was ready to be released 3 months ago. Mangagamer knows what the fan base wants, and they know when they give it to us the less attractive products won't be sold on the old promise "if you buy this you'll get more".

That is false. TL has been done but they needed to do programming and beta testing. The translator on twitter recently has stated there is still work to be done on Quest.

01 and 02 released. They are remakes of the first two Rance games. 02 was the first remake released for an Alicesoft anniversary release so it isn't as "grand" as 01. MangaGamer also released the updated version of 02 titled, 02 Kai which doubles the script and tweaks the gameplay a bit. The regular 02 is essentially just the old Rance II with new graphics but same script. As can be seen in the OP, technically 02 was already fan translated since the script matched the old Rance II, but we have not seen Rance 02 Kai before in English. Rance Quest MAGNUM is still technically being worked on by one person who needs to finish things up so likely will release a few months from now.

Reminder guys : Rape is not funny, and is not to be condoned, especially in real world.

Except if it's in the Alicesoftverse, and was done by Rance. Then it's not rape. Maybe. According to Rance himself.

Big fan of Rance VII, Hopefully Rance VI is just as good.

Thanks alot
It has less scale, seeing how the gameplay and story more about a group of rebels with dungeon crawling instead of ruling a country. But the story and the girls are just as good.

Whats the difference in rance 02 with and without kai (remastered)?
Rance 02 is pretty much the original Rance II from 1990 but new art and and UI. Its the same script and pretty barebones. 02 Kai doubles the script and pretty sure MangaGamer's release of Kai includes the slight gameplay tweaks from the other slight update patch kaikai.

Blind for the first playtrough.
Check tips and walktrough on the rance wiki when you won your first game.
If you really strugle ask advice on /haniho/ which is found on /vg/4chan.

increase your satisfaction to a specific number then use a satisfaction bonus to get more action.

Man, 01 is pretty grindy. Takes a good while to get money for gear, not including all the missable HCG if your not reading the walkthrough

Part of this is that not insiginificant chunks of the original Rance II and thus Rance 02... aren't actually canonical. Kai has a COUPLE things that Alicesoft changed their mind back on so it's not 100% canonical either, but Rance 02 is like 70% canonical and 02 Kai is like 95% canonical.
