Not really, at least nothing that i can think of. For now i'll try to redownload everything, maybe some files got corrupted during download or extraction. Besides that i have no idea. I've got Japanese locale on my PC, all the admin rights etc. Kinda clueless what to try besides that.
Edit. Nothing really works, i even tried extracting it with WinRar instead of 7zip. Well if you or anyone else have any ideas feel free to hit me up with them.
Edit2. I've decided to try out the original unpatched game and it's also broken for me. This is so strange. The last time it worked for me i had completely different hardware but i don't think that has anything to do with it. I have the same Windows (10) as before and i already got all the essential updates and requirements for my computer and for h-games as before. Also tried running it with and without compatibily modes and admin rights. And also extracting it and running it from SSD and HDD.
I honestly would have been less surprised and confused if the game just refused to work at all but this thing? I have no idea.
Edit. 3
@Elijnis Ok i've tried to partially retrace the steps i took while i played this game first time and i (kinda) fixed my problems. Not sure why but the version of the game uploaded here

works for me without that equipment bug. The only small issue with it is that when i apply your patch only to this version of the game every letter has a blank space after it which makes it a bit hard to read.
Ok i didn't even finish writing this Edit while i noticed another thing so let's just say that it's Edit. 4 now. Your game version also works now for some reason. I didn't restart my computer (well i did for a night but it was still broken today), i didn't change anything, it just suddenly started working after i played the previous version and then booted up your version again.
At this point i'm honestly willing to believe in magic or some other dumb shit since logic just can't explain what the hell just happened with my computer.
