No, the equivalent would be "Megaroporis Paprium".Quote:

Can people still preorder the limited edition copies from the WM site? I don't know what
would make them limited when they're allegedly still available for preorder, after such a
long while.
The limited edition is likely limited to just this pre-order period, afaik. Any later editions/reissues won't have the region specific art. Don't know if there's a hard limit on pre-orders, but probably not, especially not this far out.Quote:

Actually, you're limited by how much you invested by the locked date when you convert your gems. There is no way to purchase more investor's specials past your pre-locked date invested amount.Quote:

I just pre-ordered a copy and contact my friends about it. Congrats to everyone involved with this project, it's pretty exciting.
Paprium is actually a pretty good title and that trailer was awesome, but I'm not expecting the best beat'em up ever or some nonsense like that; the know-how in designing a solid beat'em up is something that few companies had, even when the genre was at it's peak, so I think that some expectations are a tad exaggerated.
Pier Solar, aside the "holy-shit-is-a-new-MD-game" and technical prowess factors - and the fact that you can see that there was a lot heart and passion poured into the game - was a disappointment as a game IMO. So, I would like Paprium to be a solid, entertaining beat'em up; one that gets the basics and essentials of the genre right and not a game that tries to impress and offer tons of content at any cost, without a solid game system.

I agree wholeheartedly. It's just so difficult to call it with the lack of solid info yet. It looks like WM have tried to appease both sides with the two modes on offer - one being the 'RPB' style using the save slots and the other more arcade-like. I maintain that the original calls for RPG elements in the game are from people who don't really get the genre ('those old Beat 'em Ups are so repetitive, we need more depth!'). Whether this approach has worked remains to be seen. In WM's favour, they have thirty odd years of beat 'em up evolution to draw from so that has to be an advantage of sorts.Quote:

This is why the whole project has been so interesting for me though. Such a challenging genre to get right, the possibility they could have pulled it off intrigues me!
