Chaos on Deponia, the second installment in the Deponia-saga will hit PS4 and Xbox One on December 6. The story is "self-contained" letting new players enjoy the adventure without knowledge of the first game.
Melmoth @Sdarts: I vaguely remember that game from back then. Never played it. (1 Week ago)
Sdarts I loved this game, you can play with different characters, each with their own abilities. You had a dash, that was basically like flying - Really cool mechanic. Squaresoft at its best. (1 Week ago)
Sdarts But got to a place where I couldn't progress further, because I didn't understand Japanese - before 2000, I wanna say. Really liked it and still remember it randomly sometimes. (1 Week ago)
Sdarts And then later their American versions. There was this Japanese game only released in Japan, I think it was from Squaresoft, the game was quite cool and I went very far in it. (1 Week ago)
Sdarts @nostradamus: Yes, PSX, N64 & Sega Saturn as well. Those days, I played a lot of imported games. I believe I played Final Fantasy 8 around 6 months before the US release. Tenchu 1 & 2 in Japanese. (1 Week ago)

Honestly, the original trilogy was ended so long ago - 2013, that Daedalic Entertainment should have bundled all 3 games together, perhaps even bundling te 4th one as well. They could also offer a discount for those who bought the original game.
I highly recommend the Deponia games to anyone who loves Story-focused, Point-n-Click, or both types of games. To anyone who really loved Monkey Island, Deponia is essential imho - it's kind of like a spiritual successor in a way.
Also, that press release is deceitful, so it's not your fault. It's been years since I played each, I played each at launch, but I believe 2 of them even end in cliffhanger. I remember painfully waiting for Goodbye Deponia, the third game, in order to continue the story.
Many characters from the first game, that didn't appear in the second game, also return in the third game - a la Batman: The Dark Knight Rises. These games are very funny as well, if HBO ever accepted to make a Silicon Valley game, I wish the Deponia writers would co-author it with Mike Judge.
