![]() ![]() It’s more than likely that she stays with him because he behaves like Rance, not in spite of his particular quirks. While she likes to complain, it’s fairly obvious that she’s not just with Rance due to unfounded affection, she has quite the masochistic side to her. She is a very powerful mage, and that is true no matter what region they enter. Sill remains his unwavering support and often the true power behind the ego. ![]() Rance is still brash and headstrong and doesn’t know the meaning of the word “No”, whether it comes to any of his desires, sexual included. ![]() That being said, Rance himself, and his slave-girl Sill, are largely unchanged. So it could also be considered the major turning point, story wise, but not in gameplay style. It’s best just to take this as a entirely independent game from the previous series, although a major event happens towards the end that changes the rest of the games until the end of the series. In fact, there are even fewer characters from the previous games that enter into this title than before. They take a hard turn from Rance VI and never look back. You need not worry about having any previous knowledge of the series in order to fully appreciate the story in Sengoku Rance. So this is already a rather beloved game to many, and it is getting its first official translation. Also, as I mentioned in the content advisory, the Rance series has an appeal towards a largely untapped demographic of sexual tastes. It was so widely distributed because it came out in 2006, when file sharing really started to pick up, and because of the more gameplay focused elements. The other reason I was a bit apprehensive is that Sengoku Rance (also infrequently known as Rance VII, or Warring-States Rance) was actually the title that made the series popular in the West, due to a widely distributed fan translation. So I definitely enjoyed the main series entry, but not the seeming side project. But Rance VI totally turned me around on the series and easily makes my top 10 Eroge of all time. As a result, I was not a huge fan of that game and entered into Rance VI -Collapse of Zeth- with a bit of a sour taste. Much like Sengoku Rance, Rance 5D is a main entry in the series that feels like a side entry due to both story and gameplay element decisions. The most prominent reason for hesitation was due to Rance 5D, which was the first game in the series I ever played. ![]() It was not without some trepidation that I approached the review for Sengoku Rance. ![]()
