you can change the language: Wonder Boy Asha in Monster World\MW4_Data\Plugins\x86_64" modifying the file "steam_emu.ini".
Regarding your joystick not recognizing you, I don't know what to tell you ... but you can also play with the keyboard, don't be fooled by the little sign.

You have to enter the file (following the steps above) you will open the block of notes, download and where it says "Language" change to the language you want, give it to save as on your desktop, copy it and replace it.

No, you cosmically stupid fuck.
It's part of the Monster Boy series. That's it. Asha is entirely female.

I can't find fault with your logic. But it is still rare that it does not have autosave if the previous ones do come with the possibility.

It's perfect that you don't like it. I keep arguing that it doesn't look too bad, it could have been a lot worse ... at least it's playable and it's fun. That if ... I would have liked them to include the retro mode as in the dragon's trap or the Alex Kid.

Really sad that they decided to use 3D...
The guy who made that tough as nails but enjoyable Metroidvania, https://igg-games.com/iconoclasts-free-319018856-download.html, did his own mockup of how he would have envisioned Monster World IV today, and it looks better, I think.
Thumbs up if you think that old 2D games should be remade in... 2D. lol
Just with higher definition, or improvements, like Sonic Mania. (not exactly a remake, though)

Seriously... It looks like a turd now... 2D games CAN be 3D but they have to do it right. Mario 2D to Super Mario 64? Hell Yes! Mario to those "NEW" Mario titles... F that S... Castlevania to those 3D console turds, Hell no!
This reminds me of how they turned awesome Megaman to trash with Powered Up! or any other great games.

I did put a 'thumbs up' since it's an interesting topic of discussion, but honestly I don't mind the 3D (or 2.5D) when it comes to remaking 2D games. And I am relatively satisfied with this remake.
In fact, I do appreciate remakes/remasters that take more liberty and risks when they attempt to recreate older games.
I believe (and I am aware this may not be a popular opinion) that if an old game is still run-able on modern hardware, even if by utilizing some workarounds, there is no real need for duplicating it with slightly better graphics and more concentrated pixels.
But if you are gonna try that, it's better to do your darndest to enhance the experience as best as your imagination lets you. You may fail, and the game may turn out to be a flop, but at least it's something new. At least, you have tried your hand at innovation, rather than repetition.
But hey, that's just what I think ... which often turns out to be very naรฏve.

Sometimes its the style of graphics that allow a game to retain its charm. I've seen games that tried to do a remake, but they changed the graphical style which was half of the selling point of the original. You are right that there are people who would go "if its not graphically improved, it sucks". Sometimes a graphical remake is warranted, sometimes its best not to mess with something that worked. There's no hard and fast rule on which is the better option. You have to weigh each game on its own merit on whether it needs a graphical update or not.

It just feels incredibly stiff... Like, the Alex Kidd remake didn't rub me bad like this one did. and it's cool you can switch back and forth between the styles when you want.
But these companies thinking that they need to put more fidelity into stuff because its new and shit... Well, you can't really make 16bit look more detailed and keep it bit styled.

"But if you are gonna try that, it's better to do your darndest to enhance the experience as best as your imagination lets you."
Yeah... That's right, cos, for example, I was disappointed by the recent Alex Kidd remake. It's funny some people on Steam complained that the gameplay was too different from the original, cos I thought the opposite (besides the inertia). I thought it would have been better with much improved gameplay and QoL improvements.
Its improved 2D graphics are a cool different take, but it wasn't enough to save the game, at least for me.
