I was worried the game may be pad based, seems the main folder has a config tool you can run.
Glad i can change the keyboard settings...useful.
Was looking for the settings in game :/

A bit. You can hold the left mouse button on a spot to have your character keep moving in the direction you want and you can right click to use one your special abilities. Like Diablo 1, you'll have to click the left mouse button for each attack you perform (so, you can't just hold it down like Diablo 2), but unlike Diablo 1, normal attacks can string together to perform a combo. Having tried both the mouse and the gamepad, I find it easier to play the game with a gamepad, as you can't launch normal attacks until you approach an enemy, at which point the game will lock onto him, allowing you to perform normal attacks.

Very useful, thanks again Fact Cat! I have bought this game and look forward to getting to it soon.

This is also the case for the Ys and the Trails in the Sky games (in case you have them, but haven't played them yet).

Own both :D yet never looked in the main folder for a config tool, much to my shame :(
Live and learn...will remember for the next game..cheers :)

Uh, my spelling....gah.

It's a bit pricey (for a game that old) but indeed a welcome addition to the catalogue. I waited long to play this game with a translation.

About the dual language options, I believe (no real info, just my guess) that in this case is not something that was requested by Falcom but more of a technical reason. The game didn't originally support language selection as it was only in japanese and text aren't probably in a format that allow for easy duplication and selection. Falcom probably hand over the source code to XSEED that changed it to fit an english release without changing what wasn't strictly needed (and implementing a language selection could be complicated). They usually work more on the visual options like screen ratio (those game were mostly 4:3) and filters.

Great to see Xanadu Next release here. Even though I have never played any in the series, anything resembling a dungeon crawler is an insta-buy. I hope to see more of this series and other dungeon crawlers come to gog such as Stranger of Sword City.

Between EA and XSEED they're just conspiring to make sure games are released when I'm broke.

Actually, with the sale going on, when quite a few people may be broke.

Wishlisted though.

Thankfully, unlike the Idea Factory games, the Falcom ones tend to make it to GOG for me.

Wonder why the gamecard shows:

Released: November 3, 2016


.. when it looks to have been released over 10 years ago.

Is GOG changing "Released" to reflect the GOG release date? Because previously they always showed the game release date.

Or perhaps an error?

Examples (just two of many, many others):

Thief

Gothic 3


Curious minds...

Read the OP. The one you are talking about was the Japanese only release of 2005. This is considered a new release for some reason, even though some could argue that it's just a localization.

Since the game has the same release date on Steam, I'll assume that the publisher considers the English localization as a new release.

Okay, gotcha. Makes sense.

I guess I read that OP thru a bit too quickly, and overlooked that point.

Time for you to actually buy something from here.

I know someone who got a review copy and he tried WINE to no avail. Sadly this game doesn't play ball with WINE, though maybe this release will get someone interested enough to figure out why and then make this available.
