A complete English patch for PopoloCrois Story II on PlayStation.
This cult classic RPG was ported and released in the west for PlayStation Portable but was mashed together with its predecessor, resulting in a lot of content changed/cut from both games, and the port itself was poorly made and sloppily translated. For the first time this game can now finally be fully played in English in its original form.
Based on LostOkina's v0.3 patch: https://www.romhacking.net/translations/6457/
Tested on real hardware, Retroarch (SwanStation core), standalone DuckStation and no$psx.
Experience may vary on other emulators.
