How is the translation? I never played the original game because I'd heard how awful the translation was. Even after a patch was applied, apparently it was still pretty rough in spots.

It's decent - a couple of awkward phrases here and there, but I've absolutely played worse. I think the bigger issue is the game's attempt to play with place names, which just ends up sounding awkward - Los York, Sillywood, Funny News, all used with every evidence of seriousness. Honestly, "Sillywood" took me out of the story every time.

Oh wow, Sillywood is hilarious. Would not be able to take anything seriously when they say that.

Glad to hear the translation isn't that bad!
