Apparently it's a...

Enhanced remake of the original, featuring "major revisions and expansions".

Oh huh, didn't expect this.

Will keep my eye on this as I loved the original (well, port on vita)

Don't know how to feel about this...don't feel the original needs to be altered significantly, if anything a slightly leaner version that cuts out a few problematic scenes Okabe groping Luka, ugh would be better

Isn't that what he does in the anime when he doesn't believe Luka's gender at that point in the timeline? Or did they make it super weird.

I haven't been able to play steins;gate yet, it's expensive for what it is, for me. Love the anime though.

The original anime is back on UK Netflix for anyone who'd rather get into the story *now*. Original VA :wub:

English dub :dread:

x_X

I was just thinking I'd like to rewatch it now I finally have internet back so thanks for the heads up.

I might actually play this on switch when I get one, I just can't Imagine sitting through an interactive novel on my desk.

New scenes by Uchikoshi? SOLD

I really should start the games, had both sitting on the Vita for ages

Going for £25 (down from £50) until the 24th, on PSN.

I've had the original version in my Steam library for two years and still haven't started it..

btw don't use (JAP) to describe Japan, that's a slur. Better to use (JP)

Noted. Cheers.

edit: No idea why I shortened it in the first place, to be honest - not as though I was close to title text limit.

You're missing out. It's slow to start, even though stuff is happening almost straight away, but it quickly pulls you in. Plus the anime thread title will make slightly more sense if it doesn't at the moment :toot:

I'm really tempted by this, but I have already played it on Vita and watched the anime, so I'm not sure if I can justify another play through that essentially combines both of these things.
Kinda wished I had not watched the anime now as it would be a much easier choice. The main reason I did was to act as a refresher before I played SG;0
