The Legend of Heroes Thread - Trails of Cold Steel in the Sky

You guys won't believe me, but I didn't really pay much attention to the YouTube thumbnail until now. Tits... Perfect.

I miss Cold Steel so much. More than 2 months since I finished CS4 and I'm still sad. 13 Sentinels helped a little, but now I'm sad again. Tried once again with first TiTS, it's just not the same.

I'm doing nostalgia trips on youtube, and I don't know, interactions like that:

That's what made the game golden for me. Interesting, human-like characters, acting natural, excellent voice acting, humor, and so much love put into all of this. I think Cold Steel series did to me the same thing Dark Souls did to me in 2015 - all other games are shit in comparison

wait for hajimari that's your last dance with the cast. i do welcome kuro's upcoming "soft reset" though and we're finally moving to completely different part of the continent.

Kuro no Kiseki is gonna be the shit. Callin' it now and fuck the haters.

 

[Siveon]

I haven't beaten TiTS1 in a while (about 4 years?) should I just jump to 2 even still? I know most of the characters but I'm not sure if I want to refresh myself by playing again or just jump into 2.

I think the quality of the series has been consistent enough (despite the recent setting being in school deterring me) that it'll be fine. I'm a little accepting of the new combat style too since I think after so many games and so many hours, why not mix things up?

I guess you could also do a recap from youtube? Seems there are a few videos like that in there, dunno about the quality though. FC does have a lot of fluff, since it's kind of a introductory journey around Liberl.

I've more or less enjoyed everything I've played from Falcom so far, so I'm expecting Kuro to be fine enough. Just seems like such a waste to switch after refining the TB combat over so many games.

I would play tits 1 again 4 years is quite long time and because of tits 1 ending. Im probably going to play tits1-ao every 2 years or so done it 3-4 times already.

is almost out on steam!!!

 

[HoboForEternity]

Midnight at my place. But i don't work tomorrow so i will just leave it downloading then play it after i do morning chores

It's expensive.

But still worth the buy.

I'm double dipping, having already played to completion on PS4. That was always the deal. I'll support Falcom's efforts to keep westernising these, even though I'm ambivalent towards NISA.

 

[4249]

Weird, the launch announcement shows two separate price points, but the steam page only shows the more expensive one.

 

[Jermu]

Bundle is 79,96€ with 20% off (eurofag) think Im going to pass and replay later with ps4 or buy with higher discount

 

[4249]

Haa, apparently the base game purchase option is still on it's way.

Sorry everyone, the game was published at 10AM on our end and it seems like we're just waiting on Valve's servers to propagate the purchase option for the main game now
10AM Pacific Time

 

[Lyre Mors]

Was able to buy the base game on Greenmangaming at 20% off right now. Just so everyone knows, it's a legit site that works with publishers, so the money is getting to the right place.

Can't wait to play tonight! Wish I didn't have to go to work.

Thanks for the tip. Quick googling and got the 20% off with the code SPR21

Deluxe

 

[Ventidius]

I was a bit sour on Cold Steel IV after being somewhat dissatisfied with the ending, but starting new playthroughs of the other Cold Steel games reminded me just how much of an improvement it was in so many key areas and, frankly, just how much I enjoyed the overall journey. Couldn't help myself from buying it again, heh, and I even got the Digital Deluxe Edition.

They're getting better, and I believe they hired old XSEED staff anyway?

I dunno, I hated it when it was announced (it was a betrayal) but it seems NIS is getting better from higher Falcom expectations? Both from the company and from the audience.
I feel like that's a net gain, in that now a company is trying to reach another's standards while the other company still exists.

It's the DLC and pricing that I don't like now.

At least they know they can't do PC ports and bring Durante in, who is a fucking bro.

That's more on Falcom though, innit

I don't know, mate. I think Falcom just licenced the rights and pick up the paycheck.

I'm still 50 hours into the PS4 version of CS4. This one has been pretty rough and I'm kinda glad we're getting a new story arc.

CS 3 could have been better. They could have rounded up Cold Steel with that game, but they didn't.

But I think you'll love all the new Class VII by the end of CS4 and you will appreciate the extra time spent with those characters. Keep going.
