OK, let's make this a press statement kind of thing. Please copy-paste this wherever people are asking for progress, release dates or whatever.
As things are now, PC-98 translation patches won't happen before the full version release of Double Dealing Character - and even after that, it will still take a couple of months.
At this point, I myself am the only reason these patches are stalled, so if you want to flame at me, please go ahead, you have every right to do so.
