The thing is, i guess i'd even like it if i wouldn't actually know Snatcher. So MAYBE the radio drama gets popular enough in Japan so it would be carried over to the US/Europe and gets an equally large fanbase there, demanding for more. That's just wishful thinking, though...

Really!? Everyone significant Jean meets is either a Snatcher or a Bioroid;
and since when is there a difference? Wern't the Snatcher referred to as Bioroids in the orginal game?
(Lisa counts beacuse she was Snatched around 2041~2042.)

This "Snatcher is the messiah" thing reminds me of SD Snatcher, what with the Skull Spider Sect and the Master Snatcher.

Keep in mind that this isn't a canon prequel. Its full title is "Suda51's Sdatcher -Inspired by 'Snatcher'-". It's a story that might not end in a way that fits with the game. We've already seen a few contradictions so far. But personally, I'm fine with that. I don't feel it needs to be canon to make it worthwhile.

You should also keep in mind that there *might* be a very clear difference between Bioroids and Snatchers... If we are to believe Dominic, there are "pirate" versions mad eby Jodorowsky Inc, and the real deal from which they were copied.

What i still don't get is the thing about Rug Hunt... In the Original, iirc Rug Hunt was basically the predecessor of the Junkers, i. e. taking care of Snatchers/Bioroids. Now, in the radio drama,

Snatchers didn't really exist before, but Rug Hunt did. So what was Rug Hunt actually doing BEFORE Snatchers showed up? Besides, everybody within Rug Hunt seems to be a Snatcher anyways, so it doesn't really make too much sense...

Spoiler:
In Sdatcher it's a government agency whose agents frequently get their hands dirty with all sort of operations. I would be surprised if everyone in Rug Hunt has been snatched, but at least a handful probably have been. People in that sort of organization would make good assets.

I can assure you that it's popularity in Japan won't have any influence on whether they localize it for an official western release. (Which they probably won't.)

I'm not giving the plot too much thought until the final episode is out though I'm really digging both the artwork they've released and the music. Does the Drama CD also include standalone versions of the background music without talking and if not, do they plan to release a seperate soundtrack at least?

It is a 2 CD ser, one with the music and one with the Drama. They have links to samples of the tracks form the Konami Style page.

Spoiler:
The Bioroids could also be an earlier version of the Snatchers before more refinement went into their design; although the pirated model sounds more likely.
But by all technicality, Snatchers are still Bioroids by definition.
I understand that it isn't canon.
I guess I'm kind of uptight when it comes to fitting with the Original Game, especially in terminology.
ex. (Zanzibar Land = Zanzibar? Thats a differnt country!)

PS
(Sorry for not spoilering my previous post beforehand. My apologies.)

I'm really enjoying SDATCHER so far. Can't wait for the final part. The only thing I don't care too much for is the artwork. The colorful trenchcoats look kinda ridiculous, especially compared to the standard looking trenchcoats worn by Gibson and Gillian Seed in Snatcher.

Sooooo....
If you go to the official Sdatcher site's character section there's one spot open. Who you guys think it is? Either it's Freddie Nielsen or Random Hajile, the outline's slicked back hair is kind of a gives it away. Maybe, by rare occurance, it could be Gillian?

I'm certain that's Freddy now, he has a coat and white hair, from what I can see through all the pixels.

Is it just me or did the SDATCHER site (the official one) originally list Act 7's release date?
There is no date set for it now, and I'm pretty sure the original date has been missed?

To be honest, i've been wondering why there still hasn't been an update about the translation of part 7 being up already.
The official release of part 7 was definitely scheduled for December...

I'll have the spare $$$ to buy the whole thing on CD at the end of next month either way :mrgreen:
