To echo the other responses, $30 is very reasonable for a game of this scope.

As for DRM:
A few days ago, JAST USA released the all-ages (15+) version of XUSE’s Aselia the Eternal, including a DRM-free download version as well.

JAST has submitted an application to Steam as well. It's likely that Steam may reject the application simply on the grounds that JAST also sells adult games.

Steam also doesn't seem to like visual novels very much </3

I just found about this game a few days and decided to order it from Rightstuf. Seems to be backordered though so I'll have to wait to play it.

The bundle is $5 extra, but you get both the box version and the download version.

Hahaha, poor Jast. They took however many years to translate the PC version, and then months after theirs came out a superior version appears.

I've suggested they could work with a gaming company used to dealing with the PSP, like XSEED or Aksys, so they could release the PSP version.

Sounds like an idea, although it'll probably be DD. And depending on how much voice work it has that could be a lot of GB...

I know it'd probably be DD, but at least it could allow for JAST USA to start branching off as well, plus they already have both the license and the script, they would just need to tweak the game.

i'm more curious how the game is doing sales wise. I hope it's doing well since it will lead them into more non-h games.

This is an H game though >.>

It has story and gameplay, but there's still h scenes I'm pretty positive.

There's no sex in this version or the one JAST put out (which just just a PC backport of the PS2 version).
Waiting on the other mk2 avatars.

Will the PSP port be based on the All-Ages version or the more mature one? That's one thing I've been curious about.

Well, eroge scenes aren't allowed on any platform other than PC, so...
