  Thanks for the review. I'll definitely look into it and its predecessor.
• I generally agree with the review, and I think it's also worth pointing out that the translation and writing are just fantastic. Every character speaks in a consistent, unique voice that also still manages to sound perfectly natural (except for characters who are intended to be unnatural), and that's especially important since the main character's external and internal voices are very different from each other. It's a real pleasure to read, and it's very impressive considering just how much text the game has. I turned the text speed all the way up and usually continued as soon as I was done reading, only letting the voices play out for particularly important scenes, and it still took me 50 hours to reach the end of the story. The voice acting is fantastic, too, by the way -- I can understand enough Japanese to get the gist of it, but I'm not fluent enough to fully understand it, and I end up getting impatient when I finish reading the text and am just waiting for the speech to catch up.
  Mask of Deception was on my 'pretty good, would recommend to fans of the genre' list, but Mask of Truth is significantly better in every way and is now one of my favorite visual novels and SRPGs. I'd strongly recommend it to anybody who's at all interested; playing Mask of Deception first is a must, though, and although you don't need to watch the 2006 anime, if you haven't seen it or played the original game, you'll miss a lot of references and one particularly meaningful scene at the very end will probably fall flat.
  Also, all of the soundtracks (including vocal albums and a live concert) are available on Amazon. Utawarerumono has taken over my daily music playlist, too.

• I liked the first part of this duology and it sounds like they fixed the problems I had with the first one: awesome. Now I just have to find some time to fit this in.
  

  going to have to check these out now

  
  After your experience with Tears to Tiara 2, I'll be interested to hear how you get along with this Wheels.
• I played both this, Mask of Deception, and the original game... and I can say, I love the setting and the story in general. The more recent duology (Deception and Truth) has a more complex battle system than the original (which was extremely basic by any standard), but I can honestly say I didn't find it a challenge to master, after some of the whacked-out variations on the srpg that have come out over the years. The critical system made the entire thing feel like reliving the Judgement Ring from Shadow Hearts, except easier (since a miss didn't lead directly to a failed attack).
  I especially liked the way they dug into the realities of building a nation (logistics such as food and water, as well as the economic realities of a pre-industrial economy) during the in-between phases. It almost felt like a lighter form of Suikoden (story-wise) in that sense at times.
• From what I gather, this is technically the 3rd game in the series. The first being released around 10 years ago. I wonder how it fits into the picture. I have yet to play the first of this two part set, but I have been curious about it.

  So, just for reference: the original visual novel, Utawarerumono, came out in 2002 for PC. It never got officially released here, but there's a fan translation. You may be interested in tracking it down, but keep in mind that it's got H scenes. Also, there was an anime series in 2006 that adapted the game; it did a pretty good job of adapting the story aside from omitting that the main character sleeps with most of the female cast.
  You don't need to have played or watched the original in order to play Mask of Deception / Truth, but you'll miss a number of references to the original if you don't. I've seen several people recommend that if you're new to the series, the ideal order would be play Mask of Deception / watch the 2006 anime / play Mask of Truth, and I think that'd be a perfectly reasonable way to go about it.
  Note that there was also a 2015 anime based on Mask of Deception, but I can't recommend it; it's got some serious pacing issues (like, worse than the game) and changes a number of subtle but important plot points in ways that don't make sense. The art and animation are gorgeous, so it's worth watching the first few episodes just to see the characters fully animated, but otherwise you're much better off just playing the game.
• I'm currently playing this game. First thing I did was to change difficulty to 'hard', as I feel the 'normal' difficulty is extremely too easy, probably for people who just wants to read the visual novel.
  Another point I'd like to add is that you can change a setting so combat chains are automatic, I also set this from the start, basically instead of having to twitch press buttons at the right time for criticals, the game does it automatically but you can't do criticals, which makes combat even more tactical for me.

  Considering that it is pretty much impossible to understand all the references the Tusukuru characters make and Kuon's origins without playing the original or watching the anime, I'd say it was a bit more important than that... *smiles dryly*
