In a random order:
The installer in the example is for a VN from DLsite.
Most games on dlsite have demos. Again, I'm asking for at least one example
This one actually doesn't have a demo.
where ja_JP.utf8 doesn't work, cause right now I'm expecting this to be a system configuration problem.
I've just tried on a different machine (running Artix) and ja_JP.UTF-8 worked this time. Big oops on my end, although I'm not sure why I kept getting garbled characters on my other system...
To clarify, I'm still trying to get the game installed, as apparently `LC_ALL`, `TZ`, japanese system time and keyboard layout still aren't enough to avoid region lock errors.
A Japanese IME, sure, if text input is required; keyboard layout not so much. Japanese time/date format, possible, but that's covered by LC_TIME (so overridden by LC_ALL); timezone not so much (potentially possible in extreme cornercases (some online multiplayer games) but very unlikely).
I ended up using a community patch, installed fine afterward.
