Should I wait for a translation of Rance 03 or make myself read the originals?

Question

Playing through Rance right now. I really enjoyed 01, but now I'm stuck in a bit of a rut. I see that 03 has a remake that hasn't been translated, but I feel like it might be a waste to not have the remake be my first experience with the game. Should I hold off Rance for a while or force myself to play the old games? I am not very interested in playing such old games honestly but I am not even sure that the rance 03 translation will ever happen. Curious what other people think.

I mean, you are already considering playing it, so you might as well give it a try. Old games have such a charm to them that I really like, you should give it a chance.

Also you can just drop it if you don't feel like playing anymore after trying it.

even if you wait for a translation of 03 there is no remake for IV, 4.1, and 4.2. and while the art in IV is better than in III the gameplay is nearly the same.

so I would say play the old one it is not that long and while old it is still better than 02(which is II with a new coat of paint and with kai a revised script)

and as a side note if you decide to play the old games don't skip out on Kichikuou Rance

You make a pretty good point. I might just go ahead and continue on this way then. Also yea kichikuou rance looks comparatively really good to the older titles so I will definitely give that one a look.
