This seems like an awesome game. It's just been a while since development and release. I've been pretty excited about it for a while. The price is also pretty expensive. I'd probably wait before buying it but I'm hearing a lot of good reviews and do want to play it. Will comment again once I have played.

I'm curious: when you say "semi-sequel," is there anything like cameos from characters in RE: Alistair++, or is it more like a sequel in terms of gameplay?

There's one major cameo character, but there are enough hints that you can actually tell what all of the RE:A++ cast went on to do.

I already thought this looked pretty cool, but now I'm sold. cx I'm a bit of a sucker for cameos.

So I updated the game on steam but I don't hear Sian's voice did you decide not to add it in the end or what??

Sian's voice will be patched in later. A lot of weird things got in the way, and recording voices already doubled the production time without hers. We ran a couple surveys, and most people preferred an earlier release with a later patch over waiting.
