I'm curious to know why the prior RPG of Paladin's Horn was removed by Blue Dragon and what's different in this new version. What was changed or kept? How different are the story and characters from the prior game? What's new that's been added or changed?

Very curious as the prior game was my favorite of Blue Dragon's library along with Zella's Life Story. 

1. There wasn't a point in selling a similar product, especially since the former was of lesser quality than this.

2. Characters were changed to give them a greater depth, and while most remain, they have been overhauled completely.

3. The story has been completely overhauled, with more in depth character interactions, of which include two 'dating' events after progression through respective questlines.

4. New visual novel bust images were added, new music was introduces, more endings, more characters, more interactions,  a more simplistic night and day mechanic, the removal of a trading system in favor of a better crafting system, a plug-in for my other games on the front of the notice board, a more visual intimate scenes between characters, of which can show their expressions with greater detail.
