Supremezero posted:Plus 3rd has far less to translate than basically anything else in the series. it's about as long as CSI and II. the actual approximate counts for anyone interested because there's a lot of hearsay are (in millions of JP characters) FC: 1.5 SC: 3.5 3rd: 1 Zero: 2 Ao: 2 CS: 1.3 CSII: 1.1 these figures come from xseed for the english games and falcom for the non-english games. that said the post by xseed im getting this from is lost because xseed migrated forums, so for all you know im full of crap

It's crazy to me how much smaller than SC CS is just given how much longer it took for me to beat than SC. Then again I suppose I didn't do as much of the npc stuff in SC as I should have.

Extracting the text said that SC was 1.4 million IIRC and FC was 800k or so--those other numbers are either made-up or taken from things other than the game or people quoting the size of FC+SC+3rd as being just SC or some other wrongness.

Both games clocked in at right around 2 million characters, while SC has over 3 million. (Though this does assume Falcom's character counts are accurate, since we haven't seen scripts for Zero and Ao ourselves and thus haven't counted them out ourselves -- but to date, Falcom's character counts have never been far off the mark, generally agreeing with our own with only a very minor variance.) http://forum.marvelous-usa.com/forum/index.php?threads/trails-to-zero-and-trails-to-azure.28185/page-8

Cake Attack posted:as requested, here is how to get 2x (or any x, yx if you will) battle speeds. it just makes the animations faster and doesn't gently caress up the music, so there aren't really any downsides to it. i beat FC like 4 times without it because the animations never really bothered me but ill still always recommend it to people since there's no good reason not to it also works with any PC jrpg for what it's worth Cake Attack fucked around with this message at 01:05 on Aug 21, 2016 |

Would be really rad if Sara could find a way to add a 2x battle speed option to these games someday, just to save people that hassle.

Zaggitz posted:Would be really rad if Sara could find a way to add a 2x battle speed option to these games someday, just to save people that hassle. Apparantly, the PSP version of 3rd also has an option that can instantly unequip all quartz on a character. (you're dealing with a large character roster there and you'll be switching quartz around a lot) It would be nifty if Sara could implement that into the PC version and then backport it into SC. FC doesn't really need it since the plot picks your team for you until the very end, but it'd be quite a timesaver in SC.

Wow, yeah, that would be a huge timesaver. I wonder why that's not in Cold Steel. The game unequips all the rare quartz, but it leaves all the generic quartz in.

De-equipment options for quartz and equipment would be welcome in all Trails games. As would the ability to quickly jump between quartz of different elements. In Cold Steel, I usually have so much quartz by the end of the game that just scrolling through the list takes ages.

Early FC Chapter 2 spoilers: Did I just witness an orphanage burn down with four children and a woman trapped inside?  I had to stop right after that scene - not overwhelmed with emotion, just had to take care of stuff IRL - but holy poo poo. Out of nowhere given the tone of the game so far.

fake edit: Oh right, after writing this post I realized we have someone who's playing through FC right now in the thread. so uhh, don't read any of this if you don't want to know who'll eventually join your party. Ehh, I guess I'll spoiler it just in case apropos of nothing in particular, post ur final sky sc team Or, I guess, the two non-protagonist members. I took Mueller (or wait, is it Müller? e is often a substitute for umlauts) mostly out of curiosity, and because I had mandated to use every single party member in the final chapter and he was left. But also because he's totally the better half of the Olivier/Mueller comedy act, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. And then Josette, who somehow managed to worm her way into being my actual favorite character in the series despite her monumentally small screentime. I dunno what it is, but I liked the Capuas as soon as they were introduced, and then only more as the games went on. When Josette suddenly joined the party at the very end she was in immediately and only left because again, I wanted to use everyone for the bosses. She might be the most unlikely character of all to fight the final bosses with, too. She's just like, a random bandit. No special training, no prestigious spot in society, no nothing. The other person to compete for that spot would probably be Tita, and even she's got the mechanical genius thing going for her. Josette only has her standard-issue gun, and the amazing ability to call in airstrikes while indoors.

I'm probably midway through Chapter 2 in FC now. Agate just took over the arson investigation, Kloe joined up, and I just completed all the optional sidequests in Ruan (that are available right now, at least). About to help in the festival's play, or something. Pretty sure Kloe's gonna be in my permanent party as much as possible.

The second half of chapter 2 is also where I knew I was hooked. From the play to the very end of the chapter is such a blast. And btw yes Kloe and Olivier when they join back up are always in my endgame party for FC.

The only bad thing about flying through FC is once I finish SC (which I understand will take longer) I'll have to figure out how to get access to a PS3, or whether I want to buy one, so that I can play CS I and II. I guess having one would give me the added benefit of being able to play some of the older Atelier games I missed, as well as other JRPGs. I did have one for a while, it got broken shortly before the PS4 came out and I just bought that instead of replacing it.
