cat doter posted:someone told me that trails in the sky is as good as persona 4 in the steam thread, was I lied to? I don't like being lied to! Persona 4 is extremely anime, though I wouldn't know how to directly compare it to TitS other than that both initially revolve around a personal mystery (investigating serial killings/finding your dad and traveling the country).

Captain Rufus posted:It wouldn't have done much. It would have been on computers and modern game discussion mostly hates acknowledging people played games on computers. ( Unless you are a European anyhow.) Jrpg console gamers and computer RPG players really don't meet well. You get the Jeremy Parish types on one side, and the RPG Codex on the other. I genuinely have no idea what you're talking about. e: Like, I've seen some people have dumb pissing matches over genres, but people who involve themselves in those are a minority. The only reason there's any divide between "people who play JRPGs" and "people who play on PCs" is because a lot of JRPGs get PC releases years late, if at all.

uh, losing source code isn't an excuse, it genuinely happens a lot of the time, even with games as recent as the 2000s. Square-Enix had to recreate the first Kingdom Hearts for the HD collection, for one.

Cake Attack posted:What do you need them for? I had them when I did my LP but I've since lost that computer. The slightly cropped versions I can still access through my lpix account. Nothing in particular, I was just curious since you can usually find that kind of stuff with a google search, but no such luck with TitS.

Trails of Cold Steel localization blog is up. Nice one both for insight on what it means to localize a game, as well as on CS in particular. http://xseedgames.tumblr.com/post/133221080530/the-legend-of-heroes-trails-of-cold-steel

klapman posted:is Zeiss considered a bit of a slump story-wise? its the first time i've been kinda bored in the game and I hope i'm not just burning out on it The beginning of that chapter can be considered a bit slow, but the latter half is when FC's main plot starts to ramp up.

There's a calendar system in CS, not sure about CS II. It's not restrictive though, you do whatever then choose to let the day end. There's also (non-romantic) relationship building, but that was intoduced in Zero.

Broose posted:So I've noticed I own pretty much all the Ys games that are on Steam. Is there a reason why I should start with Oath or Origins rather than I and II? Is there a story order to these? Ys and Oath have more modern gameplay where you'll be hacking, dashing, and jumping, while I&II retains the "bump" system.

davidHalestorm posted:Funny. An Empire Strikes Back type of ending is how I would've described the ending to Trails FC. So, what you're saying is, that I might get blue balls again if I bought and played Cold Steel 1? Great. And there is no confirmation yet that xseed is going to bring localized Cold Steel 2? And on top of that, Trails 3rd Chapter may never got localized at all even though from my googling, it resolved a few plot threads introduced in SC. lol they said the CSII localization was well underway a while ago.

Sakurazuka posted:I'm to going to want to have finished SC before I start Cold Steel or are they mostly unconnected apart from being in the same world? All the Trails games are connected, but an earlier XSeed blog said that Falcom stressed that they wanted the games to be simultaneously connected but accessible. So you'd have a greater understanding of the world if you'd played every previously released game before playing Cold Steel, but CS itself is still a valid point to enter or skip to. Anybody who doesn't speak Japanese isn't getting the full experience on that front anyway. Plus if there's any Trails games that Cold Steel's directly tied to it's Zero and Azure, and who knows if/when we're going to get to play those. quote:Aren’t there a few games that come before Trails of Cold Steel?

I recall some were concerned about spoilers in the artbook, but it's clearly divided into two sections by a big warning strongly recommending that you finish Cold Steel I before proceeding.

Cake Attack posted:Is there any reason for still having lines under the new orbment system? Progressively higher slot opening costs, and longer lines give higher EP gains.

Cake Attack posted:it doesn't, im pretty sure reading people's reactions to CSIII's announcement (on english sites, mind you), the vibe's more "oh, I wonder what this will be about", rather than "finally", so I doubt II has a major cliffhanger with regards to its own plot. Might be a 3rd deal where it's a single-installment story that wraps up dangling threads from I&II (as well as Zero/Azure, probably), while setting up the next Trails chapter that'll probably take place in Calvard.
