      Blueberrymagick! Great to see you again in the comments section! 🤠
      I hope you enjoyed this interesting look at Dark Chronicle’s untranslated media, the series still has so much potential that Level 5 can capture in a newer game!
      What features would you want to see from a DC Reboot or DC 3? 👀🌟

      @@DarkCloudCompendium I mean I’m perfectly happy with how the mechanics work in both games, but I wouldn’t mind something new to the series like picking your gender, customizing your character (like hair and skin), and maybe even a friendship/party member based mechanics, like, the more you use them in battle, the more abilities they unlock, and even products they can sell to you! Like the recruitment mechanic in DC2! Idk, I’m just spitballin here ;P

      Dark Cloud 2 is such a gem that just wouldn't exist today, Dark Cloud 2 is fantastic I feel like it throws everything and the kitchen sink to see what would stick from the invention system, spheeda, finny frenzy monster medals and so much more! These days games are unfinished experiences where they try to nickle and dime the customer with DC 2 you felt like you were going on a grand adventure of a lifetime.
      I'll always love the Dark Cloud series, the first one is always my go to but that's like comparing The Beatles Abbey Road to Let It Be, both are amazing records no matter how you slice it 💯✌🏼🥳

      It feels like a lost chapter we never really saw, or a filler ark. I just enjoyed seeing them be silly in their environments for a change.

      I'm glad your enjoying these videos, this one in particular took much longer than expected due to the sheer volume of text to translate and the hands on creation of the new English version which was all done by yours truly but it's worth it in the end as we can enjoy this lost peice of Dark Cloud 2 history together! 🌟✌🏼
      Rogue Galaxy is a gem, always glad to shine the spotlight on that estranged member of the Dark Cloud family!

      Hey Menace Maddie (Love the name!) Great to hear from you again! Sorry for taking sometime to respond to this comment, I had some trouble with my health but I'm still alive 😤🙌🏼
      Unfortunately, when I initially created this translation back in 2022 it was on my old hard drive which was a HDD, due to all the strain I put in it through the video creation for this channel it blew a motor and corrupted taking the PNG PSD files for this Manga along with it. That situation was really scary and was almost the death of this channel...
      The only thing I have of this manga translation project is the finished video itself, terribly sorry. I'm old school but since then I've learned the wonders of Google Online storage to prevent an issue like this occurring again 🙏🏼
