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

Once you go Trails you never go back.

Sara should be the canon LI, with Laura and Fie being the canon side pieces.

 

[Shadenuat]

Dunno above LI but Emma should have had more narrative light instead of her cat.

Are the Vita versions of Cold Steel I and II decent?

Are the Vita versions of Cold Steel I and II decent?

I played these versions of Sen 1 and 2.

I think, as a full time worker and father of two, that mobile gaming is the best way to enjoy lenghtly games like those, playing a bit before sleeping or in the morning before going to work, without needing to spend a lot of time alone on a computer.

That said, Vita versions have the flaw that Vita hardware is a bit too weak to handle the games properly. Expect frame rates drops and blurry graphics.

I still enjoyed the games a lot and I don't find the need to play them again on my computer. I may change my mind when III and IV ship on Steam, so that I can get proper starting saves.

The explanation as to why Claire likes Rean is touched on in more detail in Cold Steel 3; IMO it puts a lot of why she treats him the way she does in Cold Steel 2 into perspective.

Are the Vita versions of Cold Steel I and II decent?

I originally played the Vita versions; I have been playing them again at the moment via the Steam versions on a brand new laptop. My conclusion is that you won't be missing anything, and (like Mychkine says) perhaps the Vita is better suited for full time working adult life, where sitting at a computer some more of the day is a little tortuous.

I've bought a bunch of new computer parts for ~$1000 and upgraded my 8yr old rig. The first game I bought is TitS SC. Though now I have a decent modern gaming machine I still won't succumb to popamole.

Just beat Trails SC a few days ago, kinda sad it's over because the writing was that damn charming. Was a little upset that 3rd is gonna change the protags, but then I saw that ending scene between Kevin and Weissman and figured it should be breddy gud.

Bought 3rd, CS I & II, Ys Origins, and Felghana all in 1 swoop for the Steam sale because they're hardly ever discounted.

Trails from Zero: 70%

Hey, everyone! As you’re well aware, this marks another ten percent done in the first editing pass of Trails from Zero. However, this progress report is a bit more special than the others. Zero’s script is split up into four spreadsheets, and, now, we’ve managed to complete three out of the four. That’s pretty insane. Everything outside of Crossbell City has been edited, which just blows my mind.

I guess there’s not too much to fill you guys in on with this update. Ribose has started to look into non-dialogue text, such as NPC names, map labels, arts, crafts, and everything else under the sun. Jose was quickly able to insert that text into the game, and it looks fantastic so far!

Now that we’ve started this part of the patch, we decided to throw something together for you fine folks. Here’s a little demo video of Trails from Zero, showing the Special Support Section’s journey to Armorica Village!

Remember, things are still prone to change! This is more of a, “Hey! Look at all this good English text in game!”


Until next time, everyone!

 

[Jack Dandy]

Love those people!

 

[HoboForEternity]

ILOVEEEEEEEEEYOU

 

[HoboForEternity]

Look who's back!!!

Spoiler

My gal bro is here!

 

[InD_ImaginE]

Estelle is one of the better modern JRPG MC

Much better than Rean by huge margin

 

[Deleted member 7219]

Fucking spoilers man, what the fuck?

 

[Jinn]

Fucking spoilers man, what the fuck?

I have to agree. HoboForEternity , you might want to throw these under a spoiler tag. Could spoil it for people who want to be surprised, and for those who haven't played through the entire Sky series.

Besides that, this is pretty fucking sweet. Looks like the last two of the Cold Steel titles are shaping up to have some major payoffs.

I've actually just been getting around to finishing up Sky SC myself recently. The 10-15 hours after the Prologue were as much of a slog to me as the first 10-15 of FC. Once I got over that hump, the momentum has kept up pretty well throughout. Getting me pretty pumped up for Crossbell and Cold Steel (and the inevitable awesomeness that will be the Calvard Republic, which I'm honestly most excited about besides Crossbell).

 

[Shadenuat]

That's Steel 3?

Would make Rean and co look poor in comparison.

Well actually, Joshua and Rean are both terrible protagonists so they should hang out. Somewhere far away. Estelle can join my party.

 

[Mark.L.Joy]

Will I manage to stay alive long enough to see Cold steel 4?

 

[Valestein]

Wake me up when Olivier is a companion again.

 

[HoboForEternity]

Oh well sorry and i was asleep the whole time. Edited and sorry for those whose damage been done

 

[Somberlain]

Joshua

 

[Deleted member 7219]

Joshua + Josette > Joshua + Estelle tbh

The problem with Estelle is how fucking obsessed she is with Joshua. Were it not for that creepy obsession, yes, she would be a good character.

 

[Momock]

Butthurt that your waifu has a husbando?

Don’t usually care but Estelle is obsessed with Joshua, to the detriment of her character.

 

[Momock]

Yeah I agree. The beginning of TitS 2 was a pain because of this to be honnest.

 

[Valestein]

Rean is upset that Josh has more game than he does.
