    No I don't mean that, the sex scenes featured impossible feats.

    It was like watching body horror. And to think that the day would come when I miss the animation quality of 90's hentai...

    They fucked that up so badly it's SFW

    The preview pics are interesting. Like compare these two pictures of Lia and Maris to the rest

    Sure they're preview pics but that is massive jump in quality.

    Maybe they're saving all their budget for the debut of my glorious days when Rance takes on Lia.

    I don't watch hentai, but for Rance I do exceptions. And yes the animation is...weird.

    Btw, Rance VI is at 70% and Maria has gotten to translate 5D after checking the previous translators work, currently at 42%.

    Most modern H-Anime look like shit nowadays because of shoestring budget that I'll give Rance OVA a pass because it's still better than quite a few of it its competitors

    Damn, I didn't know that in Rance can actually die in Sengoku Rance if his units are defeated in battle. I won a really epic battle against The Takeda Übermensch Yamagata, but since Rance died it was game over man, game over. The only consoling thing about this whole experience was the fact that all the girls that I (Rance) had enslaved with his hyper weapon swore eternal celibacy and never sleep with another man. I guess that's all that matters in the end for Rance anyway.

    Well if the new news that is coming out from Japan about Rance 03 is true- it's going to be at least partially voiced.

    I guess they have the VAs from the hentai ovas.

    Art looks decent but that was expected because of Rance 01

    Rance ALWAYS dies if his troops are wiped out in battle unlike other characters where it's chance-based.

    Makes him a bit of a liability on higher difficulties but you got to stick with him since he's basically the best Dungeon-Runner/Boss killer

    The bug where you use Feris, NPCs disappear, then you reload and are stuck behind an NPC in an area you shouldn't have been?

    The latest patch includes the old Japanese patch that fixed that bug.

    Rance III isn't much of a game anyway. Everything worthwhile is covered in the Let's Play.
    Though The Entitled One missed a small Lia scene.

    So more Rance 03 pics that show the gameplay and a few more cgs

    Looks like Feliss is actually going to be a party member and not an overpowered summon.

    [​IMG]
    The Japanese characters in the background are Gahahahaha

    [​IMG]
    Party set up screen.

    [​IMG]
    Move from place to place on the overworld. Seems fairly straightforward.

    [​IMG]
    Camping. Basically the same options as when you camped in Rance III

    [​IMG]
    The way to walk around dungeons is taken pretty directly from Rance 01. But it does look like you can structure your party.

    [​IMG]
    A battle. Looks like a fairly generic JRPG. Feliss has a nice arse


    [​IMG]
    Same item shops as Quest and Evenicle

    Again directly from Rance 01

    Seems like she's getting set up as the 'main heroine' of this game.

    These aren't all the characters but a lot of the character designs were released.

    Our party members

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Rance, Sill and Kanami
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Shizuka, Maria and Sel
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Milli, Leila and Rick

    I'm not sure they'll all be party members at the same time. Milli, Leila and Rick clearly perform pretty similar roles. It could be that you get Milli first and later upgrade to Leila and then have Rick in the end game. Also sounds like you change your activity party when camping so you might end up with all three and everyone will just use Rick over Milli and Leila anyway.

    Not sure where Feliss is because she was put in a different category but the released images clearly show her as a party member and she does get contracted by Rance.

    The evil Helman Empire

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Patton, Thoma and Henderson

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Mineva, Fletcher and Sepia
    Helmanite men are massive as per usual. Thoma is canonically the strongest human in any of the canon games and I wonder how Rance 03 will reflect that.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    The evil demons of the Hornet Faction
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Demon Satella, Demon Noce and Demon Ithere

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Ithere's Three Apostles - Topaz, Garnet and Sapphire. They were basically completely irrelevant in the original.

    [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Satella's two special stone golems.

    Obviously Noce's aim is to revive Gele but Gele's design hasn't been released. I do wonder how they handle Noce and Gele because arguably they're the two most powerful enemies Rance has actually fought. I guess Ithere will be beaten by Shizuka striptease again and Satella looks too thin.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Misc Characters

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Cetina (some random bar maid I guess), Colin (why the fuck is there a fuckable chick could Colin.) and Feliss

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Keith and his secretary, Lark and Noah

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Necai (she didn't appear in III but I guess she was popular in the OVA), Rola (has to be pushing Rance's lower boundaries), Rose (the devil fucking nun) and Sioux the hobo raised by monsters in a forest because lol Alicesoft naming

    So it's using the same system as Rance 01? Has anyone played that and what did you think of it? Any information on the English translation?

    It's not really using the same system.

    Only similarity seems to be that you walk through dungeons in the same way you do in Rance 01.

    The battle system seems completely different.

    From what I can tell from the battle system, you also have a limited number of skills that you can distribute amongst your party members. Presumably character specific skills like Rance Attack will be exempt from that.
