Came for Bairnt's attempt to pronounce Harakiri. Stayed for the gameplay. Was not disappointed in either facet!

This game is absolutely gorgeous. Very much looking forward to my copy delivering. Thank you for the video Bairnt! I'm convinced I'll have a lot of fun with this one.

Great stuff Bairnt! Adventure phase looks really good.

Well, you got me convinced. I'm gonna get the game, paint it and play it. Thanks a lot, Bairnt 😅

Thank you for the video!

This looks great!! Hope it was as fun as you made it seem😊

Hi Mike, thanks a lot for the video, it looks like you had a lot of fun fighting the Shogun, in the Exploration Phase there are a couple of enemies with very bad intentions waiting for you :). Thanks!!!

I'm waiting on my pledge this was very helpful

Love the unintentional comedy of Bairnt attempting to pronounce some of these words and not being ashamed that he can't 🤣 Keep up the awesome work and never change. Love the energy and humor you bring to your playthroughs. 🙂

I'll admit your pronunciation of Japanese was a bit painful, but the game-play itself was interesting, and your enthusiasm is always a joy to witness. I'm somewhat disappointed with the rather blatant typographical errors (repeated sentences, misspelled names of something that is an important quest item, and one of only a few character abilities that you think would have had more rigorous QA, etc.), but they at least didn't actually impact comprehension of the game-play (a wrongly-named item, referencing another existing item, rather than simply a misspelled item, for example), and I'm still quite looking forward to playing the game when it delivers within the next month or so.

This looks very good!

Loved the play through Bairnt and never mind any mispronounciations. It is the spirit that counts :) To me the Japanese used occasionally feels inappropriate or wonky anyway including the title Harakiri ^^ (wonder if they ever consulted a native speaker). The typos you encountered, the missing story lead all make me a bit worried. Hope there is nothing totally game or progression breaking. Otherwise I quite like the game play and theme :D Keep it coming please. Looking forward to get my own copy and wonder where to stuff it after so many other giant KS boxes arrived this year... sigh ^^

Fun fun

Re the pronunciation: The pronunciation police have all retired or been fired, so we are free to populate our imaginations with any sounds we want. Bear in mind, Bairnt, that English is unusual in having silent E at the ends of words. In transliterated Japanese, the vowels mostly have the equivalent Italian sounds, consequently: Tomoe is Toh moh ay. -Toby

Great, my pledge just arrived yesterday… totally hyped… now i have to paint fast😂🤣

This looks awesome, BUT I don't think I've seeen so many publishing errors in a single playthrough before. The art work is gorgeous but it feels like no one proof read or played anything. Was this a translated game? Regardless looking forward to the next phase as this is right up my alley!

Harakiri reprint isn’t until Q4 2024

You Learn from Tomoe's backstory that she trained to be a superb archer. -Toby

You pronounce every name perfectly, Bairnt 👍

I love the games you play. As a personal preference, I'd like to see much less explanation, and more gameplay. I don't think it's necessary to go over every single detail of every little thing you could possibly do or might do, and just talk about what you ARE doing when you're doing it. Appreciate your work.

Not sure I like the Commie Mode, though... 🤓
