I don't know if people are as much surprised as they are tired of such draconian regulations. For me, feels super surreal that we're still dealing with the same weird censorship issues we saw with Mortal Kombat nearly 30 years ago.

Seems it. Even though I realize this is hardly the first RE game to get a similar treatment in Japan, it’s always disheartening whenever companies make these announcements. These regulations are so senseless.

Why? Rail shooters may be a thing of the past, but it's easily one of the best ones ever released. The more people who get a chance to experience the game, the better.

That’s rough. Which items were those?

I do think it's worth clarifying that the game was never on Kickstarter. It was funded through Watermelon's Magical Game Factory using gems, an investor currency that allowed fans for purchase games and influence the way WM's titles were developed, ie adding RPG style features to Paprium, including blood, etc.

In 2017, WM stopped using the gems system and instead allowed players to pre-order the game outside of MGF's unconventional framework.

My thoughts exactly. Fonzie is conveniently not saying the reasoning PayPal gave for seizing those funds. However, anyone who has followed the development of the game and the developer's history should be well aware of their tendency not to deliver the items folks pay for.

Not gonna lie, I’m genuinely amazed my copy of Paprium arrived. There are still people waiting for copies of Pier Solar that never shipped.

If you're not opposed to retrogaming, I'd say Ys I & II Chronicles is a great place to start on PC. As for PS4 & PS5, Ys: Origins or Memories of Celceta will give you a nice taste of what the franchise is all about.

For the clicks? It's literally one of the three versions that are available - two of which are bug-ridden messes that are teeming with game-breaking issues players have to contend with. It's a PS4 game. It says PS4 plainly on the tin. It's kind of our duty to do an honest opinion of the game for the majority of consumers and not just those who were fortunate enough to adopt the new hardware this holiday season.

Hopefully, this is the start of a trend. I miss having manuals for my games so much.

Hard to tell, but I definitely didn't have "Jamal Khashoggi's Killer Buys Metal Slug and Samurai Shodown" on my 2020 Bingo card. We live in the absolute weirdest timeline.

Most definitely. Isolated in the middle of the stormy Atlantic on a ship full of viral monsters? No thanks!

If you liked those I can’t recommend Mansion of Hidden Souls enough.

I'll be the first to admit The Suffering deserves a spot. Christian miiiight be a bit of a Castlevania fanboy at heart (I can't blame him, though). If it were my list, I absolutely would've included it.

Already? It’s been four years, my dude.

It’s definitely tough, but the fact you basically get two lives if you can make it back inside your shell makes it a much more forgiving experience than it could have been.
