How many friends can I reliably focus on hanging out with if I want to max them out? I notice I start different break periods with different amounts of AP, even if I've been getting all the questions right, and it's hard to plan in advance since I don't know who'll be available.

Ok I am doing fine on my hard run after grinding a bunch, up to sand boss. Btw I just read the achievements and it seems you can beat Kishgal/Toal in the first encounter? I just thought those were guaranteed losses so didn't try after a couple of tries each.

Kishgal aborts the fight after you take off a certain amount of HP and it's EXTREMELY hard to do because you lack the abilities to easily deal with his iceberg move. (he doesn't even have an alternative line for that situation) Toal is a lot more doable since beating him centers around keeping up your forcefield and running away from him while blasting him from afar. If you beat him, he'll just transform and oneshot your rear end in the cutscene after.

Holy crap, I just started the second field study and I am really missing Alisa's AoE healing craft. Doing it one person at a time or wasting MP healing with arts feels excruciating bycomparison.

You'll soon get a craft that heals both HP and EP to help out with that.

It’s really cool when you’re doing the final fight in CS1 on Nightmare and Morning Moon refuses to proc the counter so you just kinda eat poo poo.  Also cool how the game (gameplay spoilers) doesn’t just record the different stance weaknesses.

Wait, did a lot of Oruboros poo poo happen in CS3 and Trails to Zero/Azure, or are we just gonna gank half the Enforcers/Anguis and Grandmaster to wrap up that loose end, because I thought the Sept-Terrion weren’t a complete set.

That's all fine, but they've also made comments at times that as of I think CS2 they were only about 60% done. Now while I can guess that CS3 + CS4 is the entirety of that last 40%, I'd imagine that the length it'd give especially CS4 would be nuts.

I'm not sure how to stop tweets from embedding, and I'd rather avoid the potential spoilers, but I'm fairly sure there is a mistranslation/misintepretation there and this was meant to be the stopping point for the Erebonian arc not the entire series. It's a known fact that they had the basic outline for the Erebonian arc done back when Sky was out. Crossbell and the Third were relatively unplanned because they needed to set up a bunch of lore for Erebonia, and then they decided that working within the smaller scope of Crossbell would be better than jumping straight into the actual epic that is Erebonia. Of course, Cold Steel still got split into 4 games instead of 2 lmao. SC Bracer fucked around with this message at 15:30 on Dec 25, 2017 |

They still have plans for a calvard arc. Endorph fucked around with this message at 16:05 on Dec 25, 2017 |

Siliconera can't translate for poo poo and get things wrong about this series all the time. This isn't the final Trails game. Just the finale for Erebonia and it'll also act as a sendoff for Liberl and Crossbell too.

What if instead there were fewer playable characters, because I get really tired of having to set up orbments over and over.

You'd have to be an idiot to think CS4 is the final game. Kondo is on record in saying he wants future arcs in the series to be limited to two games each because the scope of the erebonia arc got out of hand. The only reason CS4 has that subtitle is because the public expected 3 to be the last one and there was an outcry when the sudden cliffhanger happened.

It's not a crime against humanity to ask for some sort of memory system so you can save your orb placements. Especially because certain characters in CS2 just leave suddenly RIGHT before a dungeon.

Not...really? The story is fairly minor compared to some other mobage; it's mostly grinding raids.

Hivac posted:Not really? I wasn't a huge fan of the orbment changes but I had just come off of Sky 3rd and I really liked messing with orbments at endgame. I used the poo poo out of turbo I don't know why 'they should make reshuffling orbments a little more convenient' = 'they hsould cut out gameplay depth.' like, what gameplay depth would be sacrificed letting you save orbment setups? You're conflating two unrelated things. If the battle system is the same and the orbment system functions the same, the gameplay is literally the exact same, it's just slightly easier to set-up new party members. At absolute worst, you could say it discourages experimentation, but the cold steel orbment system doesn't really have much experimentation to it anyway.
