How do I tell the game to use English, instead?

So, yes, I have my computer set up so that I can play Japanese games, and I can read Japanese, but it isn’t my first language. It’s very impressive that you have a full Japanese translation, but I’d rather play in English, thanks. Is it not possible to manually select the game language?

Woo! Thanks.

I also worked out that ‘TAB’ switches between the different headings. I was stuck in General before then.

おかげさまで、うまく設定をいじっています。

いや、それはシステムロケールを日本語にしないと日本製のゲームがどうしても文字化けになってしまいます。とくにRPGのゲームとか。

Wow. The forum really doesn’t like it if you don’t type stuff in English. Fair enough, I suppose. 😛
