Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Crow - agreed. But Jusis? He sucks, there are better casters and better fighters than him, the only good thing he has is probably Platinum Shield.

I also took Lloyd and Duvalie, while happily dumping most of new class 7 on the bench. Juna on the deepest bench possible of course.

jusis is top tier support character. plat shield, arts support, good casting speed and just give him tons of debuff + support arts along with str increasing quartz because treasure sword is good at dealing debuff. he isn't the best attacker or caster, but he' a support character with good attack and magic.

Jusis is one of the best caster of class 7, and a great unit (can't judge all the new one, i only just finish all the sidequest from finale) . Arc slicer is a magical attack with an S power break rating, and give - ADF, so it synergise greatly with art support 2. He also got a great BO ( though like many other unit, he suffer from the fact that Mister Swharzer decide to have 4 broken BO ), and gain another great one in finale.

Also he's a bro and got lot of shit throw at him throughout the whole series.

Don't like them, although Jusis is bearable in this game. But Ash, fuck that backstabbing faggot. Never forgive.

Dude was just

the tool of a 1,200 year old curse.

You can't really hold it against him that much. Especially after he owns up to it.

Well, Jusis case just proves how great Cold Steel games are. Character that was almost useless to me seems to be quite popular with others. I was using Rean (atk + debuff) / Fie (eva build) / Crow (crit build) / Alisa (arts + support + CP battery), and the synergy was great. Almost too good for me to try something else. Maybe I should play CS4 again some time, with totally different team used for most of the game hmm... need to consider it.

Caster Rean and Gaius with Regulus and auto CP equipment was so effing broken. Bosses could not get a single turn whenever those two were around.

But pretty much whatever worked with CSIV, since the gameplay has become so bloated with ways to break the game. Hopefully they can rework that aspect in future titles, dunno how it's been with Hajimari.

Started first LOH TOCS yesterday and i'm liking it so far, but oh gosh how much useless dialogue. Does it improve it in next games since this is the first of the arc or stays the same? because i don't have time to read millions of lines of nonsense

Depend on what you qualify as "useless", but yeah, there is even more in the sequel.

As Sarathiour just said, SC has even more dialogue and what may be considered fluff. That being said, it does decrease in 3rd if you get that far (as it is a generally shorter game than the first two) and the Zero feels the most slimmed down regarding in your face stuff while still having plenty of optional dialogue.

And then Cold Steel makes it monumentally worse that you'd be wishing for the previous length.

Cold Steel is a letdown so complete and all-encompassing you'd be hard pressed to think of a more effective way to ruin a franchise, almost scienfically designed to be as bad as possible

Did someone bother to TL it alongside Geofront or was their translation bought and made official post-factum, I wonder

Damn, really hope this date isn't accurate. Thought Hajimari would be out in 2022 for sure.... Going to be a mighty long wait if it's 2023.

It could be could be a placeholder, but with Zero they specify fall 2022.

Yeah, sadly it makes sense, especially if they had to fit the Crossbell duology into their localization schedule. No Reverie til 2023, and probably no Kuro untill 2024 or even 2025. Goddamn.

On the bright side, at least it's finally confirmed we're actually getting Hajimari in english, but I had kind of just taken it for granted at this point.

Oh, and if Falcom goes the Epic exclusive route, looks like I won't be buying any of their games anymore. The leak being on the Epic store doesn't necessarily indicate that'll be the case anyway.
