Apologies if this is the wrong section >_>
One of my friends with a PSP told me he loved an RPG on it called Astonishia Story. So I googled it, and I bumped into this old thread from NeoGAF.
This game is better than I could have possibly imagined. I mean, come on, Warez Fairy?!

NeoGAF said:I started to get the sense of that shortly after my early impressions were posted. However, what really sent this realization crashing home was when the game's story was interrupted for the second time in order that it might present to me a second diatribe on the Evils of Game Piracy.
Yeah, seriously. First it was just some weird character who showed up, stopped the plot, and started talking about how bad piracy was and how SONNORi was doing everything possible to fight it. I was a little bit creeped out, but I figured okay, whatever, I'll let it slide. The second time, though? It was even worse. The characters refused to exit a cave because they said there was a bug in the game (yes, they said that). Then the Warez fairy appeared. The whole thing was so obnoxious that I just started keying X over and over, and in the process, I guess I hit "yes" to a question where he asked if I liked Warez. The game proceeded to take away 70% of all my characters' HP.
Bad enough some ****ing crappy Korean developer felt the need to include crap like this in their game, but shame on you, Ubisoft, for leaving it in. I'm seriously knocking some major points off from these guys for the horrible job they did.
NeoGAFIt's not just the piracy stuff, either. The whole translation is pure shit.
Here's a couple direct quotes:
"Do you mean Makrigan, the angel of destruction who will lead this world to destruction?"
Yeah, as opposed to the angel of destruction what brings bunnies and flowers and sex.
"It is certain that the Queen of Ferarin will taste the pain of the disaster she's brought in on her own."
Sorry, but that line was funnier when Fawful said it in Superstar Saga and it involved mustard.
"I'll immediately go back to Palmira to lead the troops to Ferarin and trample Ferarin down flat."
I, Garland, will knock you all down!
"We'll have to go to Midiara Town, where the Aldred Crystal is."
"You mean the Town of Midiara?"
Good guess!
"Grandpa? Do you have to go?"
"A man's got to do what a man's got to do. It could be for himself or it could be for others. And you're no exception."
There's only one problem, guys. He was talking to his granddaughter.
