Limited Run Games (producing physical copies of digital games)

[kupomogli]

Just an FYI, as of today, Heavy Arms is responding to people asking about the alleged Asian CE of Ys by saying ""We have stopped taking orders for this item because it may not exist according to the worldwide publisher." So, it may be that LRG was correct to warn people about preordering something that doesn't exist.

This was right after they stated that on all the promotional material they've received that the supplier has sent, it shows the PS4 game having English, Korean, and simplified Chinese. I think everyone knows the artbook and CD aren't going to be in English, and that should be assumed, but the game may actually be English. LRG is stating that DotEmu has got in contact with Arc System Works who states that it's not in English, but why would LRG be going out of their way like this if it's not just to sell more copies of their own release. Whether it's true or not, I can bet you Doug wouldn't be spreading this information if they had no plans of ever releasing Ys Origins.

I'd hope that this mistake didn't happen for those who did preordering it hoping for the English version of the game after they were told. If it doesn't have English then we'll say that LRG did have the best interest of the consumer in mind. Though as I said, they'd never make these comments if they weren't releasing the game themselves, but still, we'll give them the benefit of the doubt and that they are infact doing this solely for the customers and not what's obviously profit. I mean come on, not printing until September, LRG is trying to get their sales in early to lock everyone interested in getting it down. LRG is "selling theirs sooner than everyone else," but in reality we're just preordering the game and they all print at the same time. "Not shipping until October." So many signs point to "doing everything we can on this release for the money." Even a blind man could see it. We'll see in a month what happens with the whole English/Chinese debacle, but everything else, LRG just wants to cash in before everyone else does.
