These threads are really comfy.

Just got done with chapter 8 of SC.
For a second there i seriously thought Olivier was being a little bitch for no good reason,
but he proved to still be best boy.

I assume the guy he addressed about wanting to take advantage of the disparity happening in Liberl to attack is going to get addressed in a later game? Also, fuck fighting those 3 robots in the end of the chapter, with only 1 person being able to cast arts, that shit was annoying.

I remember some anon pointing out possible power levels from the series, and it showed Cassius with his staff being at least 7 levels below how strong he'd be with a sword.

Is there really any indication that he got way weaker for using a staff? I mean he can wreck the shit out of an ancient defender at the end of FC on his own if he wants to, he's fairly proficient with the staff too.

Wasn't it mentioned that he just grasps the way of fighting like it's natural?
>>
>>156266408
Zane mentions how Cassius is so proficient in combat that he can naturally be insightful on how to apply any sort of weapon he could possibly use. Swords are the de-facto strongest weapon choices in JRPGs so while I may not be the guy who wrote up that power level list, I'd say Cassius decided to nerf himself with the staff.
>>
>>156266408
Staff isn't a weapon to kill.
>>
>>156266649
Not as easily, no. But it can, especially with the amount of strength Cassius has, plus it allows him to do a new range of moves with it, that he wouldn't be able to with a sword.

Although, since he did get trained with a sword by someone, i do imagine he'd be way more deadly with one, but the staff can be just as dangerous.
>>
>>156264600
He's handsome, strong and edgy. That's like perfect man from woman's viewpoint.
>>
>>156266735
I thought the point of him switching to staff is to not kill people anymore.

I felt nearly the same but I caved in. Probably won't even get the PC versions since my PC is shit. I'll miss out on the extra voices and the possibility of undubbing it to hear q.t Laura, Hayamin Emma, and fucking Hosoya Gaius.

And Koyasu Olivier, I guess.
>>
>>156267106
I mean, Sword Cassius is at least one of the top 4, if not top 3, if we don't count Loewe with a special sword, since he's also good at predicting stuff, and making plans so it's not just fighting.

Plus the supposed stronger people, fall into some pretty legendary tier categories, so Cassius is still a fairly tremendous monster.
>>
>>156267222
It's kind of hilarious that anyone would even think the fucking Capuas could do anything to Cassius on the airship at the start.

How strong is Sneak Attack Joshua anyway? IIRC Cassius said that Joshua very nearly actually managed to kill him, but how much of that is because Cassius didn't want to fight a little kid?
>>
>>156267419
He already failed if he didn't kill someone in the first hit. Not wanting to kill a 10 year old probably factored into that a lot too.

Which protagonist so far you felt was the most endearing between Estelle and Lloyd? Rean is way more stoic so he's not really that endearing.

I have a hard time deciding between the first two though. I mean, Estelle is basically tomboy genki girl, who doesn't take shit from anyone, and an air head, and Lloyd is a rather dense/innocent and overly kind and polite detective, honestly i can't choose since both fit well into the endearing factor.
>>
>>156267500
EOP here, haven't seen what Lloyd is about.
>>
>>156267419
>>156267461
Joshua said that he got absolutely trashed by Cassius though, while Cassius said he nearly died.

I think both are technically right maybe? The "almost died" is probably on the fact that if he didn't bother to dodge, or noticed him, the first hit could have proved fatal, but otherwise Joshua was completely outclassed.
>>
>>156267500
>dense/innocent and overly kind
So like a generic male MC?
>>
>>156267500
Estelle. She is pure wife material.
I dont know a lot about Llyod, but he probably isnt as virtuous as Liberl's most wanted woman.
>>
>>156267574
I guess you could kinda see it that way, but it's played well enough in my opinion, doesn't feel that generic or at least not for me.

You can't get anymore generic than Rean so there's that. Does he have anything notable about him at all? Like some weird habit or quirk. Is he at least quippy?

Speaking of power. I wonder how strong Campanella is supposed to be in relation to everyone else. I mean, he keeps on the pose of just being an observers but he does a lot of outlandish shit, and never breaks out of his smug self.

I mean he can non playfully summon an entire salt pillar through a portal and throw it at the his target turning them into salt and dusting them as his S-craft in Ao no kiseki. I feel like he may be hiding his true potential in order to play the part of observer.
>>
>>156268032
I've only played FC/SC, but the way I view his character is a guy that's subtly a step above the others. He makes sure all the pieces fall into place. I always like to think that everything that occurred in FC/SC was under his approval, even Weismann's death. 'Enforcers are not forced to join Ouroboros' and 'Enforcers can refuse or take on any task they want' was brought up several times throughout both games, so I assumed Weismann using Joshua like a puppet was a big middle finger to that and The Grandmaster had Campanella paid him back in kind.
>>
>>156268032
He's designated as the wildcard with the most cliche designation + bullshit power applicable card with The Fool so I can't even imagine what other shit he can do. He's so smug that he'll probably be one of the few guys from Ouroboros that come out of this alive, or not so subtlety reveal that the grandmaster isn't all knowing and introduce the upper Ouroboros guys above the grandmaster.

>>156268754
I cannot comprehend people who hate on Joshua. It's like they didn't pay attention to the story at all. At the end of FC he finds out that Weismann has complete control over him. With a snap of his fingers he could have Joshua murder Estelle in her sleep, or Agate, or Tita, or Kloe, or anyone else he was close with.

If you were in Joshua's position and you didn't leave everything behind you'd be a fucking coward. The only way he even got around that predicament in the end is because they chanced upon Kevin who could remove his seal. And even with THAT he still almost killed Estelle.

Joshua did nothing wrong.

I was abruptly abandoned by two of my closest friends a few years ago (for reasons much less understandable than Joshua's), so it's a touchy trigger subject for me. Except instead of telling me goodbye like Joshua did to Estelle, they just kind of disappeared and left me wondering what happened.

So in summary, what Joshua did to Estelle is similar to what my friends did to me, therefore he sucks.

So far he's just playing ball i figure, he follows his tasks while deviating slightly from then for self satisfaction, but not enough that he'd change much with his involvement.

If at some point he is tasked with not just observing, or maybe he's told to do as he pleases, he may go all out.

I forget, was the green goo thing he turns you into with a snap of a finger in Ao,
an illusion that stopped the person from acting,
or was it actually the person being turned into a green goo mess? It's bad enough that he can summon salt pillars that kill anyone with a touch, but he also has a lot of weird skills that mostly seem to fall into illusion and or tricks.

What is the exact time lapse between each game?

Between FC to TC it seems to fall into the spam of a few months maybe close to a year?

From a translated gameplay of the prologue i saw on youtube for zero no kiseki, it seems to mention the non-aggression pact was signed 3 years ago, so i assume there was a big jump there.

Cold steel seems to happen at the same time as Zero and Ao correct? I think Steel 2 goes a little beyond where Ao ends, and Ao itself from what i read has an ending which takes place 2 years in the future, i don't know the contents of said ending though and now, the third cold steel is taking place 2 years after the ending of 2?

So i guess so far the series has gone through close to six years?

I wonder if the next region will also take place at the same time as Crossbell or Erobonia happenings, or if there will be another skip.

Death Scream, a bit expensive to cast but good at killing those damn sparkling poms.

I still think that its easier to find them in FC as you can see them on the map and ambush them, but killing them is a different thing.
In SC, they are mixed with common enemies so I don't exactly know their location. Although they are quite susceptible to Dark Matter early game then Death Scream, thats why Kloe can take them out easily, even more if you min max her Arts Strength.

So, why does everyone hate on CS so much due to the whole "choose your girl" deal with bonding scenes? Isn't it the same in Zero and Ao? Not all are romantic i figure, and Ellie seemed to be the one being pushed since she's the only one who gets a kissing scene, but otherwise, doesn't zero and Ao fall into the same category?

Or does it still develop some sub romances aside from the girls you can chase? I have not played the game, i just know some surface stuff.

Weird, i think i read that the non aggression pact that was made by Queen Alicia was signed 3 years prior to zero no kiseki, but the chart makes it look like there was only a 1 year lapse between SC and Zero.

Here, in this video, it's the last question of a hidden quest in the bracer guild.

From gameplay videos i saw, hard/nightmare looks a lot more manageable since agl is not completely fucking useless against special bosses, and you get a lot more craft variety and such.

In the trails in the sky arc it feels like it's made to be completely unfair unless you employ the earth wall spam tactics for the most part, or some other repetitive one, while in later ones you can actually go about it with different strategies and still win.

So is the whole theory of "grandmaster = Aidios" go along the lines of:

>Continent has a super powerful being residing over it
>It appears benevolent at first but has some sinister goal in mind
>The ancient civilization found out, and sucked away it's power and placed it into seven treasures
>Whatever amount of immeasurable power Aidios had left was used to wipe away the civilization who did that to him, but was left almost powerless after that so they couldn't go for the treasures
>Establishes Ouroboros by luring people in by presenting things they might find appealing in order to get them to work for the organization
>All major happenings include an observer, aka Campanella so that he may report on the happenings, and maybe even interfere slightly if deemed necessary for the flow of the plan in order to get the treasure
>Major members may be aware of some ultimate goal, or may be getting tricked themselves thinking it's some noble goal, or they just don't give a fuck and are working for their own ends

Or something like that. If it's not Aidios, i assume the treasure stuff is in order to attain god status and steal the power of the gods for themselves or something and start an Evangelion.

If it is Aidios, i wonder if perhaps the Church would be in cahoots, or they would be aware that Aidios is not a benevolent being, but spread it as such because it gives people faith, and such.

You know in comparison to Liberl, everywhere else seems like they have their own share of horrible shit and corruption. Liberl was like paradise compared to everywhere else so far, and Calvard according to Zane has plenty of corrupt politicians too.

I guess it's easier to not have as many problems since they're relatively small as a country, and it's a monarchy with local leaders being chosen by popular vote if the prior one is removed from their seat for whatever reason.

The dragons are bound by rules set ages ago, and they seem to be aware of the major movement happening in the games in general.

I assume the dark dragon was like Ragnard, but maybe he found the rules to be against his liking, or he figured out something that made him loath humanity? Honestly there's plenty of shit we don't know, and i assume we'd figure most of it out once they start touching upon the lost civilization.

Cold Steel is an easy of example of a studio cashing in on shitty money-grab ideas pulled from ass anime. Yeah, Sky was full of anime tropes too, but they were all relatively harmless, not overbearing, and still gave the characters plenty of room to breath.

Cold Steel has
>High School setting
>Bland MC
>MC who literally has a dark side transformation
>Harem aspects

It's such a step down from the previous games in the series that it's baffling that people defend it. Sadly Cold Steel has generally decent sales so I expect Calvard to be another shitfest.

It's not like it's the major focus of the game, stop being so asshurt over it. The writing and lore expansion is still plenty great honestly.

I have not played cold steel yet, but i know some surface stuff, like the fact that Campanella shows up in Ao as well. One thing i've been wondering.

He didn't show up in Sen 1 nor 2 right? But he seems to be involved in working as a observer when some great treasure is involved. If he didn't show up on 2, i assume that was not a major operation, or at least not that important, right?

Its depressing because you can tell through the worldbuilding and character interactions in CS that Falcom still have what it takes to pump out some great stuff. It's just that they are gimping themselves with these cash-in decisions. Harems immediately rob you of romance outside the main character. School setting is plain lazy.

It's like an Olympian runner putting on high heels before a race. Just why?

I mean, i kinda get where you're coming from, but i don't think Zero and Ao had any other romance development, outside of the main character bonding with the others, and from the other anon said, only one feels romantic while the rest is platonic, but still, it's not that major of a loss and people still praise Zero and Ao a lot.

Plus i don't think there was much development on romance outside of Estella and Joshua was there? Hell, Joshua was basically the harem protagonist, but you don't get to choose the girl, and it's just Estelle. It is nice that we get some hints that maybe Olivier and Schera have a thing going on, but outside of that, there wasn't much else was there? Agate and Tita is still fairly brother and sister like, but it could go into romance once she grows up.

I mean, even in Cold steel i think some of the youngest girls in the band were more like a friendship route than a romantic one.

Basically, i'm fine with it, since it's not the major focus, and the character interactions are still rich enough to excuse some teasing of romances from other characters. I do think it would be best that way myself, but so long as the major lore surrounding the series, and the characters continue being as rich as they have been now, i won't be complaining.

I dunno, she was pretty clear on that confession, and then they spent the night together. But seriously, hopefully we see where that leads us in a future game.
I want to go redo the Loewe fight with those two and see what he says, but I'm not sure if I could do it with Tita she's just so weak.

She doesn't really see Rean in a romantic manner either. They're really friendly with each other, and that's it. It's actually heartwarming to see Millium mature very very slowly when she's ignorant to human nature but still full of life and care.

Why don't you take a seat and wait for 3rd to disabuse you of your ideas about Tita's mother.

So do you think Osborne is going to get fucked over in Sen 3, maybe Ouroboros will come back back and be like "oh, it was all part of the plan". Or do you think there's a possibility that he will escape/nothing happens, and he'll get to become sort of a secondary main villain of the series?

I personally found both appealing in their own way. Sky clearly had the better characterization and characters in general but I couldn't really give a rat's ass about either cast aside from a few I really liked. In terms of story itself, SC suffers from the Ouroboros enforcer of the week format that really got tiring since half the plot is mostly catching up to them and their hijinks. The best part of Cold Steel for me was the civil war and I appreciated what everyone had a stake for in it, even if it resulted in a lot of the characters only being relevant due to the actions of their family.

So clearly Jusis is best Cold Steel

What he did to Ouroboros wasn't at all part of the plan, and they have been plotting for two years in Calvard to get rid of him and finish the Phantom Blaze Plan.

They'll blow up the building he is in with extreme prejudice after assaulting it with a few Enforcers and assorted units to try and pin him down.

It won't work because you can't kill the Messiah! And Osborne will become to Ouroboros and the world what Kane was to the world of Command and Conquer.

Just wait til the surface of Zemuria becomes permanently altered by the overusage of orbal energy and small amounts of people and monsters start mutating just through proximity to sepith.

In a way, Weissman will be vindicated. The world indeed is going to be changed through the power of orbments and the debris of the civilization past.

Just not the way he had in mind though.
>>
Would anyone mind telling me what exactly is up with the main characters transformation in CS? What exactly is it, and what's the explanation given for it?^

And i heard that there's woman who are called witches too. I assume they're just people who manage to use some form of power without the air of orbments? Like Lucciola, who had the whole bell illusion magic, which was apparently passed down on her family, or are witches something else entirely?
>>
>>156287584
He has something "mixed" into him that gives him an overall buff in fighting power. Not all powers are the same and they manifest in different ways. For some reason or another, Rean has a small bit of ogre mixed into him, and lord knows what sort of monsters they are in Zemuria

Rean's ogre mode was poorly explained and introduced, but McBurn also has the same power too. Probably Osbourne experimented with Rean's body using the 13 Workshops.
Pretty sure Schera mentions Luciola has those magic powers from the far East but not in Calvard. So Calvard might probably have cyberpunk and magic in it since they were the first to make orbments. The witches probably are from the far East and immigrated to Calvard.

Orbments run off of orbal energy. This is ambient and all over the place, and orbments never run out of energy. Scientists hypothesize that it is emanates from spirit veins and underground concentrations of sepith.

It's not at all well understood other than the fact that it's pretty much unlimited energy as far as anyone can guess.

No one has any idea about any ill effects on humanity. So far, that is.

Was her reasoning for helping Ouroboros explained in Ao, or does it still remain a mystery? She gives off the "noble and proud" idea based off her looks, and perhaps a "just" person. So her helping Ouroboros feels weird.

Remains unexplained. Only one thing is explained about Arianrhod, and it's even less than what we understand about being Mixed.

When Crossbell is on fire and being razed by Red Constellation with civilian casualties everywhere, Campanella and Arianrhod are watching on the side. Campy is happy that the plan is progressing so well and is enjoying the sight. He asks Arianrhod what she thinks about the view, which she says that one sided atrocities are not her kind of thing. However, this is just another face of war and it is what it is. It's merciless.

Having been in the Lion War, she'd know that fairly well I guess.

She has morals, but she's willing to watch atrocities carried out for the sake of Ouroboros's plan.

>MFW Joshua and Loewe's past in more detail is talked about

I mean, holy shit. I expected things to get serious, but then it goes full Berserk levels of suffering on me.

Hell, when i beat Renne on top of the tower, her talk about her past even if brief also made me think a lot of nasty shit that could have happened to her based off what she said. And the Queen's talk about why they don't talk about Hamel, and the entire thing about it.

Honestly i got surprised when i got to those spots because i sure as fuck didn't expect the game to touch upon such topics. I kinda like how the game can add political juggling, and other such topics and makes it feel authentic.

How come this series isn't more well known outside of Japan? Is it really just because it took forever for them to start doing ports?

Does the 3rd game coming out soon and future ones also get to touch upon messed up themes like this?
>>
>>156297045
Renne was supposed to have been used as a child cock-sleeve before Ouroboros but then Falcom decided against it and removed that bit from every release aside from the original.

Yeah, these sorts of messed up shit happens in nearly every game.

>>156297266

Found it. Although from the way that anon said it, made me think she actually did get raped, but he didn't actually get to start, he just ripped her clothes off.

The Crossbell characters are probably going to be majorly involved with Sen 3, considering what happened at the end of it right?

Jusis clearly has the most amount of baggage and development among Class VII that feels significant whereas Alisa's problem mostly stems from her overbearing mother who expects something more arbitrary than Jusis' problem of "acting as a noble should".
>>156312373
And this is where it sort of hits me that if Jusis really was a girl, then he would somewhat come off the same that Alisa does with how she shuts him down and how wary she gets around him. The key difference being that Jusis really wouldn't actively do this to you.

Now I'm really wondering how a female Jusis would be like. He/she wouldn't be a tsundere like Alisa but something more rough, but at the same time more lovable. Then again, that just makes the tension between him and Machias sexual.

While I think that Jusis would probably be similar to Alisa, I think as a female he would take a bit longer than Alisa would to open up to Rean, but like you he wouldn't come as aggressive as Alisa does. It kind of would make every step to get him to open up more likable, since it would be about winning his trust or something like that.

Plus if Jusis was the main heroine, it would make the context of CS2 more dire since Rean didn't just lose Crow to the nobles.

I guess Fem-Jusis would still mostly act indifferent but I can't currently think of another character in some other series that pulled this sort of female-archetype off without coming off as a complete bitch. Perhaps that territory is a necessity before the character warms up though cause technically, Jusis wasn't exactly an asshole to Rean and was exclusively a dick to Machias.

I also remembered that he rarely ever falters in letting out what's on his mind so thankfully there wouldn't be any of the annoying cliche moments of a girl not being able to say the things on her mind and cause misunderstandings. I'm thinking way too much into this.
>>
>>156313159
I hope CS3 has Rean make weekend trips Jusis' mansion to drink and wallow on his problems.
>>
>>156307398
Why? It's fairly standard and one way. Besides it will be a clusterfuck with 80+ cast.
>>
>>156257725

>>
>>156304481
Hmm I wish Cold Steel didn't 'hold back' on their themes. Not really having rape, edge and murder but just more risk with the main cast's lives and such.
>>
>>156312424
'Strength' has different meanings. He wasn't the best combat-wise but he's easily the strongest Enforcer with stealth and assassination that we know of so far.

>>156312793
He was sent to attack Cassius with Weismann knowing he'd fail and that the kindhearted bracer would take him in so he could be Weismann's unwitting/unwilling spy.
>>
>>156313172
I think it would balance out with Fem-Jusis being the bitchest with Machias, while Rean is sort of the person who makes her fall back and calm down a bit. Fem-Jusis would look real bad at the start, but after her trip where she opens up to Rean and mends things with Machias, things will get better and her bitchiness will be toned down.

At least it would work better than Alisa's tsundere act which felt forced as hell.

>>156313159
I kind of like the idea of Rean being a teacher for CS3, it not the Punished Rean everyone thought would come after how the second game ended, but it probably will be fun.
>>
I don't get the hate for Alisa, she was tsundere like a chapter or a little more. Why people act like she was the wost tsundere ever?
>>
>>156313829
I didn't mind the whole tsundere part since she decent enough to clear that up in the very first chapter, it's just I never felt anything for her after that.
>>
>>156313829
She's just another thing to add to the list of Cold Steel's problems. A blonde tsundere as the main girl is so fucking cliche its almost hilarious that Falcom was actually playing it straight and not as a parody.

She was just the dullest possible choice for a railroaded romance. Every single other female classmate had a more interesting character and backstory, besides Laura who at least has that sword autism going for her.
>>
>>156313955
She has good chemestry with Rean and Falcom kinda forced as the girl you have to choose.
>>
>>156314076
I liked every girl more than her, even Millium. Granted, I wouldn't be saying that last part if I wasn't playing CS2 and Millium became significantly less annoying,

Only Millium was an interesting character, at least in class 7.

Alisa just feels like the girl next door safe-route, which I don't particularly mind but don't find it as fun.
>>
>>156314195
This is always the funny thing about harems. They introduce all these varied girls then always have the main character settle on the most boring safe choice.

Cold Steel is awful.
>>
>>156314195
>>Rean can be sword autists together with Laura
Two sword autist sounds terrible

As boring as cliche than Alisa's

I don't have a problem with that.

I agree but there's nothing wrong in with vanilla.

Having several route is not harem, except you have route where you can conquer all girls.
Also this guy want to speak to you.
>>
>>156314395
Except Lloyd canonically settles with the most bland girl too.
>>
>>156314195
Honestly, Rean going with Emma would be the safest and easiest choice especially considering how cliche it would be for Rean and Emma to be a pair to counter Crow and Vita being a pair.

Laura and Fie also would be way better as platonic relationships than a real one since they seem like the kind of girls who would be fun to hang out with and the ones you go to when you want a girl's perspective on things when shit's going south with your waifu (even if they aren't exactly the most normal ones).
>>
>>156314379
>Two sword autist sounds terrible
If Rean turned into one then yes, it would be tougher to swallow. The fact that he already was one just makes it easier to bear, plus the tomboyish taste that comes with a girl who doesn't know anything else but fighting is something I simply found cuter.

In Emma's case, her whole secret deal got annoying but it worked it's way into the plot that felt way more significant than any of the other girls' relationship.

Let's not even forget Millium or fucking Sara, because going after your teacher is honestly not something done often enough.
>>
>>156314446
Laura just seems like the kind of character Gaius should have been. The sort of friendly rival that pushes the MC to further himself.

This is the point where Rean was fully made to check off the last mark on the generic LN protagonist requirements list.
>>
>>156314821
I think that Alisa as a romantic heroine works, her events are mostly romantic and she doesn't steal screentime during the plot.
I think it's a nice balance.

I love the Trails series but Cold Steel was definitely pandering to the lowest common denominator for sales. If you paid attention while playing, the high school setting and harem nonsense burn a lot of time and detract from the main overarching plot. Not to mention the stupid "nakama" plotline. "Hey I know you basically helped start a civil war and caused towns to burn and people to die, but let's ignore all that and graduate high school together! Cause our high school experience is super important and class vii is super awesome." It's actually dumb and the whole concept of giving the ship to a bunch of students in the middle of a war is also dumb. It's only done to pander to otaku who love high school being glorified.

>>
>>156314999
I think Alisa works because she's the only one normal enough to contrast all of Rean's shit like the ogre powers, being an Awakener and all of that other shit. She's the Estelle to Rean's Joshua.
>>
>>156315136
Wish it actually had harem though with Rean impregnating his lovers but normal games usually avoid that route.

I never mentioned anything about childhood friends. Saving someone from their childhood and only just remembering them is something that happens frequently too.
>>
>>156315189
Sky, Ao, and Zero are all great (but only Sky has been translated so far). Cold Steel is kind of meh. A lot of people say Cold Steel is the worst by far. All the games have average-ish gameplay and heavily rely on storytelling/characterization. Cold Steel kind of falls short by adding in high school simulator elements and allows it to influence the story in a not so great way.

FC is connected to SC, first chapter - second chapter all that. FC by itself is nothing to write home about until the final moments and SC brings everything else to fruition.
>>156315538
It still felt incredibly unnecessary, but that's just me. Whether or not she's forced or not, as long as Falcom lets me choose, I won't go for her unless they somehow write every other girl's endings having Rean get cucked.

The majority of the game has a wonderful idyllic feeling to it and the slow pacing really brings out the world and feeling of two kids starting their own journey. The slow but deliberate exposing of the world is what Trails is all about
>>
>>156314195
What about Sara and Millium?
>>
>>156315851
I agree with you on all those points. The thing is, I really can't find myself easily recommending FC without telling the person to immediately get on with SC after FC is done. That is of course if they even managed to finish FC in the first place because that cliffhanger is a real solid hook.

I'm going to recommend all the localized games to a friend soon and knowing him, he'll really want to get started on Cold Steel but I'm going to have to put in some effort to make him sit through Sky.

But thankfully, he's the sort of person who likes taking in series from as closest to the start of it as possible so I think I can make it work.

>>
>>156316537
I mean, he's going to like it because it's actually a fun game and decently written, which is the exact opposite of Agarest War. I've given him tons of recommendations over the years and he's pretty confident of my own judgment on the things I send his way.
