This looks like a cute game! I might be interested in checking this out.

By all means, please do! It's an excellent and uniquely charming game and one of my Falcom favorites! Zwei II is also super fun and charming, but I still prefer the first Zwei game overall. Nothing can beat the wonderful pixel look, the hand-drawn backgrounds and the lovely protagonist duo.

One question, though: it doesn't have any ecchi stuff in it, right? Like, no panty shots or boob grabbing? Because I hate that stuff and can't stand it in anything.

Not at all. No fanservice, no stupid ecchi humor, no innuendo. Smile

Impression from preview; One third Alundra, one third Lunar and one third Golden Sun, a spoonful of Skies of Arcadia and Wild Arms added in as well as a finishing touch of FFT, all whipped together with a template recipe stolen from Arc the Lad...

I don't mean that in a bad way at all, the preview actually strikes a chord with me so might try it once it comes out. Smile

FFT and Arc The Lad? I don't really see any similarities to Zwei (well, the sprites are similarly proportioned to Arc the Lad and the hand-drawn world map, but that's it). I'd rather compare Zwei to games like Threads of Fate. Lunar and Golden Sun probably work, too, but Zwei is still more comedic in nature (i.e. the main story is rarely dramatic).

What's Zwei II like? Is that good, too?

I wish they'd consider releasing this and Trails in the Sky the 3rd for PS4.

Does this mean we're a year out or only a few months away from release?

Looks like playing a PS1 game.
