2) Is the extra/recap disc any good? Will it fill me in on what happened in the previous games, even when I know basically nothing?
Unfortunately Renzo, They took out the Japaneese Voicetrack feature, however the voices are a LOT better this time.
In addition to some of the better talent kept around from the previos games, they have hired more superb Actors, for example, uhnless I'm mistaken, the VA for Kuhn did Axel in Kingdom Hearts II.

Is this an indication that it's a much longer game? Because the old ones were crazy short.
Put it to you this way, Uriel is 15 Hours into the game, and he Just got the "Job Extention" and: [spoiler:e78c238d70]Skieth Awakened.[/spoiler:e78c238d70]

You can factor in stuff like fighting in the Arenas on your own time, doing quests bought at the Quest Shop, bounty-hunting notorious PKs...
So I bought Rebirth. And Infection, Mutation, Outbreak, and Quarantine.
My poor wallet. I have a lot of game ahead of me, though.
Nice work on scoring the original game's parts. Must be hard to find them by now if you had to go on eBay. I'd wait till you've played the last part though to watch the last part of LIMINALITY though.
On a related note to you watching LIMINALITY, how do you find it compared to ONLINE JACK? Equal, bad, or better?

The 'happening-in-the-real-world-at-the-same-time' OVA made for G.U., only built into the game rather then on it's own seperate disc. You can find it in your desktop's news-section.

Oh, I haven't watched it. I won't even unwrap G.U. until I finish Quarantine.
This is getting some bad reviews, but I assume that's just because they're not obsessed with //hack like I have been.
Love the first four games.
Love the //signs anime, and the newer //roots anime, as well as the //gift OAV (hilarious). But I hated Legend of the Twilight Bracelet.
Dreamerdown on
Not all vampires suck blood.
Not all of them die for love.
The four main parts of the original story are in this order.
A).hack//AI-BUSTER (novel which can be seen as the prelude) .hack//SIGN (anime which can be seen as the first half of the story)
C).hack//INFECTION/MUTATION/OUTBREAK/QUARENTINE (PS2 games which can be seen as the second half)
D).hack//LEGEND OF THE TWILIGHT BRACELET (manga which can be seen as the epilogue)
The second AI-BUSTER novel is a collection of stories set here and there in between the four parts. The ANOTHER BIRTH novels (four books based on the original game from the point of view of the game's main female character) are also being translated at this time with the first two out in the US so far. As for the LEGEND anime, it's concidered as non-canon since it veers from the manga's version of events early on.
Where all the pieces that add up along with the added stories coming in with //G.U., check these links out (pictures too big for direct postage here).

It's no big deal. You have ALOT to go through. Especially if that's the first time you've seen Endrance.
Also, i've just got to state how much I hate Endrance. His character's such a kill-joy if you ask me. Especially later on when you [spoiler:f827eef6bf]fight him.
I mean, his awakening warcry is basically:
*In a sad, emo-ish sort of voice* "You can't possibly understand my feelings! LEAVE ME ALONE!"
Talk about a letdown. I was expecting him to go all murder-tastic during that part judging by that other quote I posted, and then I get that. I half-way expected his awakening attack to cause him to start crying, run away from me, and then start slitting his own wrists. [/spoiler:f827eef6bf]
