I imagine that's what a newbie sees when they first start playing Dom2

Question marks? I see squares, slashes, and othersuch. Of course, it means about the same thing to me, since I don't understand Japanian anyway. This can be both a blessing and a curse. Japanians have some really creepy stuff.

No, it is certainly a walkthrough. It looks like it was patterned after Bruce Geryk's. The writer even has a page up with a partly complete spell list, translated into Japanese... up to level 6 in most paths.

Unfortunately, it is mostly beyond my capability to read now... so I can't say how good it is. He only went to turn 3, so it is quite in depth. Hmmm, maybe Hana can read it=)

...or maybe you could contact him and see if he'll do a complete Japanese translation=)

If I can get a copy of it in Japanese, I should be able to translate it. Don't think it'll show up on the computer I'm on, though.

I don't have the slightest notions of Japanese, but on my computer, maybe half the characters are displayed as "asian-looking" characters, and the other half look like squares with 4 hexadecimal signs inside - most likely, these are 2-byte codes that have no pictures in whatever font my browser is trying to use.

But, judging by the pictures, it seems to be awfully detailed. I cannot imagine someone going to that much trouble to write a bad review of a game

Why no simply ask the guy who wrote it? Presumably he speaks both English and Japanese...

Apparently he likes Nascar

and drawing

and graphic novels

and Anime.

The name of his site is Big Mouse and has what reminds me of a tentacle monster mouse as an icon.

I think it's just a fansite.

Hello. I became late.
This web page "BIG MOUSE" is SF & Fantasy ( and other ) Game fan site.
The Dom2's page is the review, explanation of the races, Spell List , Demo's walkthrough ( 3 turn ) , written in Japanese.
But, it won't be indicated by the OS except for Japanese. Because 2-byte-code ( it's S-JIS code , not Unicode ) is using for the characters.
I'm happy if Dom2 can use 2-byte-code.

Oh! This page is the list of the picture which was drawn when "Pictionary (Game)" was played and which can be laughed at.

Thanks.

p.s.
The index page written in English for the joke of the April Fools' Day.
