[Cain0425]

[cursebreaker]

it's hereee... and Chance is back, I'm off to play the demo (just because) before buying the full version ^_^

[Iarumas]

I just placed my order on this yesterday and I can't wait to play through this one. I played the introduction scene and I was pretty sad to see the opening video removed from the beta version (a bit of it was shown in the open beta). I wonder if the video format is change to an alternative format if we can have the opening in an update/patch. Otherwise, I plan to give my feedback on the writing, art, and possible gameplay bugs as soon as I'm done. I had planned on giving feedback for the open beta, but I got caught up in other work, so I'll be sure to do it this time. Also, should I post that on the other forums or can I post here as well?

Anyway, I guess that's that; thank you sake-bento, Deji and the rest of Sakevisual for getting this sequel out! Your work has always mesmerized me and I still hope that someday I can help make a title in the Jisei series (it's my Visual Novel making dream, not to mention a personal goal of mine XD). With that being said, see you guys when I'm done.

EDIT: As a special treat from me to everyone, I went ahead and wrote down the lyrics for Aural Wave's new theme song for Yousei, Redemption, and now I'm going to share them here. I had to listen a few times on some on the more questionable parts, but I'm fairly certain that these are the correct and accurate lyrics. So here's the video and the lyrics. Enjoy guys!

Redemption
Lyrics

There's more to sift through in my heart
Than all these unsolved cases combined
What more to dwell upon that my soul
To seek the forgiveness that I crave

I run away and look back
I harbor these feelings, all signs intact
(Redemption calling)
And I answer, but only for a moment
When will I give myself, give all myself
To be over and done, to finally lay myself
To rest

We were never asked to carry these gifts
It's been our burden task
Yet we continue to deliver chained and bound
To the same course and then is never an end
It's only a beginning

I run away and look back
I harbor these feelings, all signs intact
(Redemption calling)
And I answer, but only for a moment
When will I give myself, give all myself
To be over and done, to finally lay myself
To rest

I run away and look back
I harbor these feeling, all signs intact
(Redemption calling)
And I answer, but only for a moment
When will I give myself, give all myself
To be over and done, to finally lay myself
To rest

Yosh! The game's been out for a week, so I've added a walkthrough to the site:
http://www.sakevisual.com/yousei/walkthrough.html

There's also a very nice review of Yousei up at Indie Gaming Mag for anyone interested in reviews.

And many thanks to Iarumas for sharing the OP and the lyrics! Several people had some video problems this time around, so we dropped the opening movie, but it should be sorted out by the next one.

[Cain0425]

how many parts are to this game coming out?

[sake-bento]

how many parts are to this game coming out?

There will be five in all.

[Cain0425]

so two more games then?

[sake-bento]

Yup! We'll be starting the next one later in the year.

SO GORGEOUS!!! I'm just gagging at the art so far.

[Cusko]

WOW!

I haven't finished playing the game yet, but I just want to say this theory which has really been haunting me:

The girl who was Kangai's sister is Li Mei.
One of the endings establishes that

Limei's body is artificial, which may imply that she has died once - and it's been confirmed that Kangai's sister is "dead", or at least he thinks she is.

Besides, in this episode it was also confirmed that Kangai's sister was the one with the black hair, and Kangai simply dyed his hair back then to match hers. All Asian people have black hair. Limei is Chinese. This can also explain the inseparable brotherly connection that Kangai grows to have for Limei.

[azureXtwilight]

Jesus, you beat me to it.

I beat only one ending already, and can say I'm really intrigued about the development. Can't wait for the remaining episodes!

[Coren]

Orrrr maybe it's Chance!

Kangai used to dye his hair black to match her? NO PROBLEM! NOW SHE DYES HER HAIR BLOND TO MATCH HIM

Loved the game, as usual. I only had one complaint through the whole game.

I felt a little hung out to dry when I was forced to name the murderer. Having access to my notepad at that moment would have been nice so I could think it through a little more. Not sure if this was by design or not, but I did find myself really wishing I could look over it one more time.

Other than that, the game was amazing, and I eagerly await Part IV.

Ahh, it's finally out! I've been waiting to play this game after that cliffhanger from the first demo. ;A;

I-I was wondering if I can claim this game as a prize from winning the previous fanart contest? I wasn't completely sure how the contest prizes work, so I thought I'd ask first... >_<;
