About the Saturn version's Stage 1 voiceover-
I feel that I would like to explain the origins of the camouflaged messages
in STAGE 1 LINK at the very end of Radiant
Silvergun.
It's not that we've made an important game, and I'm probably writing quite
recklessly, but I'll leave it up to the individual to decide whether to
think "he's poking fun," or "I see". I just want to
make the game company employees, the business people, the developers, the
retailers, and even the users think. Games are discarded culture…
In the beginning, I made this article for magazines. In the event that I
was asked, "what did you want to say" in relation to the story
and Stage 1, I thought I would give
them this article. But there didn't seem to be any interest. Well, I think
I should probably entrust the creators of this book with making this article
understood.
