Fantasia Sango 5 on Steam. No English support listed but it has one in achievement languages, so probably later?:

Hahahaha, holy shit that trailer on the steam page is the strangest thing I've seen in awhile.

Anyway, this kind of looks like a Taiwanese Romancing Saga of sorts? If that's the case, would love to try it someday.

I liked their combat design; from the combat perspective, graphic assets for each weapon, beat-them-up colored HP bars down to splashy combat animations (don't remember if there's an option to turn off when one gets bored though).

Recommend playing the DOS (俠客英雄傳3) version, instead of the Windows (俠客英雄傳XP) remake due to IMO better character portraits.


Flame Dragon Knight 2 - Legend of Golden Castle (炎龍騎士團2 黃金城之謎), my go-to Chinese classic-tactics game, also has such combat perspective.
Similar to Shining Force / Fire Emblem series, no defence if one claims is a Shining Force II clone.

Fate Seeker looks badass. Also sounds like the developers plan on an English release! Not sure when, though.

Did they ever fix the prequel?
Well it runs just fine but if you are referring to the google machine translation level translation then no; before steamspy had to rejigger its' algorithms it was in the neighborhood of 4-5k copies moved so I doubt there is any motivation for them to really improve it instead of working on their next game.

Pretty much stuck waiting for autists to fix it.

hmm, i think a discussion should be had on whether it is morally and ethically responsible to support chinese video games.

I think the problem is they can't find anyone to translate it on their budget of 4 chickens as the last group that translated their game cheaply looks to have used pure machine translation.

I'm not sure if it's me dropping frames or not (I don't think so), but GuJian 2's video on its steam page looks like it was made on a potato.

Mostly, Chinese trailers run at 10FPS but run smoothly when you actually play them.
