Wow, so Rance has been failing to get it on with Miki for 7 strait games? Did they act like acquaintances in Sengoku Rance?

However, this being Rance 1, he seems like a complete newbie to the whole thing, and really can't rape anyone at all.

Rance: *selects Assault*
Girl alone in building with him: "Bring me rare item X and then we'll talk"
Rance: okay...

Even the girl just saying "I have a lover already" is enough to deter him.

So far, besides the defaut Sill, the only girl he got to assault give an immediate Bad End with "Rance lost himself to lust!"

You've got a lot of stupid shit to do in order to get that key (took me a while to get it).
>32. Go out the hall and go to the prison. Ask the guard girl about HIkari twice and the guard should fall asleep. (if she’s not falling asleep that means you haven’t talked with everyone yet). 33. Now go into the room where the prisoner is kept. "Ask" the prisoner her "name" three times and she will tell her name. After hearing her name go back to casino. 34. "Ask" the unfriendly casino girl her "name" and Rance will ask if the prisoner is her sister. She will give you some reward for helping her sister if you do “Talking” and “Hearing” with her. 35. Go back to the prison and the prisoner girl will thank you and well and give you the straw. 36. Go to that maids room (the one you’ve got the key from and H-ed). Try to do that cleaning with the straw and you will get the option to take a fruit that you find while cleaning. Take it.
>43. You still can’t enter Hien’s residence, so go to the hacker girl on the southern part of the city. Talk with her and you will give her a fruit you got while cleaning the room. As thanks, she will give you the key to Hien’s residence.

No, there are two keys in the castle. You get the key from the maid, and that allows you to go north into the room with the girl stealing bread. If you leave her alone without raping her, she gives you the key to the jail, I believe.

It doesn't matter anyways. You said it yourself, everyone wants an h-scene with her. Rance is just fanservice.

They're just saving her to string people along and have a girl Rance has to work for, it's going to happen eventually, Sengoku set it up pretty well.

They did find a way to hack 02, so they are translating it now. Other than a need for some English grammatical cleanup, I don't see the problem with him translating the game. He is German from what I understood, so assuming English is not his first language, some grammar problems are understandable (not suggesting someone who speaks English as a second language can't speak it properly).

I imagine the quality of translations will improve as he continues to get practice and more help in translating these games (plus he has stated that the patch released for Rance 1 is not the final patch and he will clean up problems with the English).

>> No.6865373

>>6865290
I believe the people I was working with were actually a bit further (at least the text wrapped up neatly), but I guess they also dumped it because of the image editing. They were always like WE'LL DO THIS LATER SHUT UP when I asked.

So how could I restart it if I can't even hack? All I ever did was translate.

If you are doing 3 (there is no "03", it has never been remade) I can give you what I have here, but I'd still prefer if that game would get a better translation. It has the best (IMO) storyline of any of the RPG Rances which shouldn't be ruined.

It's okay. The first Rance is painful to look at, especially the monsters. The good news is that you do not miss anything at all as it's nothing like the other games and barely even considered canon, so you can just skip it.

The characters do act like they do in the later games, especially right after in II. Rance still hits women in the head, Rance still doesn't just fuck everybody, etc.

The Rance in 1 is different from the Rance in the very late games because Rance has grown up (timeline-wise, it's been what, five years?). Even the Japanese fans say he's been growing up.
