Class VII is going to show up anyway, I'd easily take a reveal for older characters after a number of in-game years over characters that were only gone for one and a half, with less significant age difference.

>>376514281
I hope Fie wears even less clothing this time around.
The tummy was a good start.

When Crosbell?

>Chapter 7 Chapel basement
This scene fucking got me. Kevin and Ries are great.

>>376514281
Isn't it like 3-4 years for Class VII?

Also, with this new class, it's basically relegating them to Fast Arts Guy position as like one or two chapter guest characters. In a sense kind of sad, but on the other hand eh.

>>376512747
Time for Agate to get cucked.

>>376514526
It's probably for the best, the ones I am sure will have to join are probably Emma and Fie, alongside Sara. Everyone else in Class VII is a big maybe and they will probably appear just for a single chapter.

God, I hope original Class VII stays the fuck away. They're useless screentime sponges. We had 140 hours with Alisa, Elliot, Laura and Gaius and they accomplished fucking nothing. Unless they plan on making cold steel fucking 4, they better focus on the most important stuff.

Laura and Gaius need a modicum of development, especially with Aurelia and her nord friend around

Emma is definitely going to be around since she mostly kept everything in the dark until CS2 and her hometown is in western Erebonia

Fie is around since Sara is and is looking for her old boss.

Elliot and Machias can remain as civilians and support members. Same applies to Alisa since she's only good as a walking battery.

Millium is already shown running around with Altina

Jusis HAS to come back, he's too important in-universe by name and is best Cold Steel

Will Tita create a Pater Mater for herself?

>>376515368
Isn't that what the Orbal Gear is?

>Agate and Olivier are working together to uncover the mysteries behind Hamel
This alone is far more interesting than the entirety of CS so far. Congrats Falcom, you've regained my hype.

Many of the characters from Class VII are either too plot relevant or too important to not come back.

And in the new Class VII we have

Atlina, who's the closest person to Rean after being work-place friends for a year and a half. Still ultimately his observer but has the time to joke about his perversion and give off the wrong impression to the other kids

Juna, the girl from Crossbell who doesn't want to be around and hates Rean for hastening her country's occupation.

Kurt, Mueller's younger brother with a particularly strange hair coloration. Didn't want to attend but Mueller insisted. Family is no longer employed as the royal family's guards.

Ash, some kid from the red light district who calls out Rean at every opportunity to remind him that he's been living a shit life as a government dog.

How come so many people played Cold Steel but not Sky? Or played Cold Steel before Sky? I thought Sky was supposed to be played first.
Feels like so much of the discussion in these threads is about Cold Steel, kinda frustrating trying not to get spoiled on stuff when people said that you were supposed to wait for third because stuff in cold steel is after it. Also I don't have a PS4.

They need something to make Rean somewhat fun otherwise he's has nothing else that will stand out.

>>376515941
>Rean's fat chipmunk cheeks
Is he gaining weight? Or is it just bloat from antidepressants? We know Rean is very prone to massive fits of dickless self-loathing, so maybe he's started medication for his issues.

He'd love to work with Tita if she's competent. The real question is how Tita is going to handle him, especially since he's a demanding prick.

What the hell, why is Tita suddenly hot?
I never cared about her in the previous games much.

>>376517270
Well it plays in the same setting, but in different countries. Past occurences get referenced but often they're not central to understand the plot.

I can see why people wouldn't have the patience for Trails in the Sky and would rather start with the newer thing first, but after completing CS there's no excuse to still skip out on it

>>376517579

Machias is imo the worst handled character in Trails history. He really needed a badass redemption scene so fucking bad. You can't start with the worst first impression ever and then never make up for it. And the dub made him even worse because his voice is so annoying, the loud shouty tsukkomi thing never works in english either.

>>376519002
Alisa at least snaps out of her retardation on her own accord, talks to Rean face to face and and aplogizes. Machias just eavesdrops on Rean giving Jusis a DEEP AND PROFOUND REAN SPEECH (tm) and decides to stop sperging out as much. Actually I think a lot of Cold Steel's problems stem from this eroge mindset that the MC has to be the one to "heal" everyone. This really weakens the relationships between the non-Reans of Class VII.

I fell in love with TitS when I first played it in PSP around 2012. While painfully waiting for SC I learned they were more games in the series and they were gonna release a new one soon. When I saw the poster for Sen I instantly hated it, the fuck is that school setting? What the heck with those generic ass designs? I was upset as shit because I loved Sky so much and Sen looked like everything I hated from anime(ironically I was in my Personafag phase), I also never expected it to be localized.

In the end XSeed localized them, and while they were a lot of thing in the beggining of the game that were off putting(specially anything regarding Alise and Machias) I actually like it a lot and II even more.

While CS was a pleasent surprise, Persona 5 is the game that has dissapointing me the most this gen, maybe because my expetations for CS were 0 while my hype for Persona 5 were sky rocket high.

To be honest, I prefer new Class VII to the old one, they have more stuff going on from the start compared to what Alisa and Co had.

>>376515941
I think it just depends on what you really like about the series. I really liked FC because of the exploring of towns and learning about the places. You do that in Cold Steel too with field trips. SC

>>376520483
Yes and I for one can't wait. CS would benefit from some healthy comedy and memes (I can't believe they haven't had ANY coldsteel the hedgehog jokes in the games, like seriously)

I dislike Alisa so much that I have to agree. At least Juna has reasons to dislike Rean immediately.

Plus she looks like a younger Sara

Apparently the CRT.fx shader file should also be adjusted for the aspect ratio.

For example 4:3
#define CeeJay_aspect float2(1.0, 0.75)

to

16:9
#define CeeJay_aspect float2(1.0, 0.5625)

>>376522507

Agate is 28 and Tita is 16 in CS3

NISA got Ys because XSEED pacing in localizing games is not good enough anymore, Steam is turning into a weeb machine and we're currently living in a good time for Japanese games (Nier, Nioh,Persona etc), so it was the correct choice to pick a company which can churn out these games at an industrial pace.

>>376522935
I look forward to Juna mostly because she looks cuter than Alisa. Plus I feel like her attitude is going to be different from Alisa, since I think it was mentioned that she was an older sister type character. Though that might actually make her worse, especially with Altina who enjoys making sexual harassment jokes at Rean's expense.

>>376522935
Yeah, Alisa didn't interest me with one bit with the whole Reinford thing.

Angry foreigner sounds more entertaining

>>376514091
Agate's face looks weird.
And I don't mean that in the "I'm finally tapping that after holding back for 4 years" sense, it looks like his face is twisted compared to the head

>>376522757
>basically a pedophile

16 is enough for consent.

>>376523043
>attitude is going to be different from Alisa
You're right, she's going to be the character that everyone keeps projecting Alisa to be as the resident bitch for 80% of the game.

>>376521719
I'd much rather have Juna and Kurt be a dynamic duo instead of just having all the nu-class VII students lusting after Rean. We already had two full games of that.

>>376523375
I'm going to try and ignore Alisa as hard as possible. Juna will just be the new tsundere

TiTS was fucked royally by hiring Carpe Fulgar to do the localization and then it stalled out for years thanks to editor-kun not wanting to work and even going so far as to threaten to kill himself. It moved at a much faster pace when xseed fired them and began dealing with the project seriously instead of behaving like amateur fan TLers who only worked for a few hours whenever they happened to feel like it. I mean, that's well and good when you're amateurs, but not if you're portraying yourself as professionals you need to work like pros.

The last few threads were pretty good, actually.

>>376523651

XSEED is a good company, but they are too small to handle localization in a reasonable time frame, 3rd had a fucking skeleton crew working on it, for example.

If they are working on CS1 and 2 already, then Crossbell won't be out anytime soon, since it has 50% more text than Trails SC.

>>376523651

Wait. You're telling me that if Carpe Fulgar wasn't hired we'd be have SC and TC like a year earlier?

>>376523886
You know, there's always the possibility that people just don't like the high school simulator type of game?

Persona 5 sold really well, but it's not like it's mainstream at all. It just managed to get basically the entire anime loving demographic. Most gamers still don't really enjoy that kind of game. /v/ just happens to be a community where most people do.

>>376524228
>like a year earlier

>>376524228
Debatable. CF's translator, Robin, got nearly the whole damn script into a form Andrew and XSEED could edit, so at least one half of CF worked properly. XSEED probably wouldn't have been able to finish SC if they hadn't gotten Robin on board, even if that meant dealing with Andrew and his Joshua moment.

>>376524214
Zero has more text than SC?
Jesus, what about Ao then?

>>376524214

Didn't SC already have as much text as War and Peace?

>>376524214
Pretty much all of their projects have skeleton crews because they find it easier to deliver a consistent translation and edit that way. But it wouldn't hurt to get a couple more people for localization so long as they know they have more projects to worry about, like Zero/Ao.

>>376520767
PSA: Enami and other Falcom illustrators likely don't work on character designs, they just do the promo look for designs by the other artist(s). I'd still prefer Enami to most of Falcom's recent art ofc.

I have to ask, is that really the same HACCAN that did SC and 3rd's super detailed and awesome covers?

What is wrong with you?

>>376523739
Apparently its because of:
>The effect is coded to work in 4:3 aspect ratio. The resolution parameter dictates the 'physical' resolution of the simulated CRT screen, but you always get 4:3 regardless of the aspect ratio of the game. The result isn't unlike you take a 16:9 image, crush it into 4:3 (and reduce the resolution), save, stretch it back to 16:9 and original resolution. The 'pixel' of the simulated CRT will appear non-square if you use it on other aspect ratios (the reason this filter only visibly adds horizontal scanline but not vertical ones in that guide), and it would therefore be impossible to achieve pixel-accurate display with this game, or any other game that is designed to be played widescreen. Type suffers most from the crush-stretch as letters become smeared horizontally.

Zero and Ao have around two million Japanese characters each, which is roughly twice the length of the 3rd (no. 3), a third longer than FC (no. 1) and the Cold Steel games (no. 6/7), and substantially over half as long as SC (no. 2)

>>376526514
The edges look better than without the filtering.
To me at least.

My tolerance for anime bullshit is high (not like it matters since this is JRPG so anime shit is there yes it was even Sora and Ao stop acting like they can't get anime as fuck) So I can get along with his bullshit. Also I am still a young apple so I feel his struggle of finding out what to actually do in life. Doesn't erase the fact he is a special snowflake and not the good kind but the retarded kind.

Might just be an in-game thing of them not wanting to create an entirely new sprite. Like >>376530173 mentioned, the Orbal Gear was created because the Russels heard about Pater-Mater and wanted to build their own.

It'll be interesting seeing how it measures up to Soldats, and how Tita well try to steal some of those Soldat tech to apply to it.

Man purely design wise Agate was the last person they should've brought back. He was so overflowing with pure 90s anime in Sky. The way his hair was drawn, the headband, the outfit with the vest, everything just shat out crystallized 90s.

Divine Knight > Aeon > Pater-Mater Tanks > Soldat > Orbal Gear (as of 3rd)

Hopefully a new Orbal Gear will show up in CS3, it's probably waaaay different after the timeskip

>>376532859
still be seen. I left the message on auto by mistake.

How the fuck do I beat Vander?

>>376531881
I liked Patrick more than anyone in class VII, even Jusis. Pisses me off when Rean is acting all assholey about Elise to him. But then again Patrick is better off with finding a new waifu because GODDAMN Elise is such trash.

>>376532408
Can't wait to make Altina cry like Millium did.

>>376512747
Remember this day, when coldsteelbaby just discovered her.

>>376532297
>tfw you'll never have a cute loli lust after you all the way to adulthood
Fucking Agate.

>>376533013
Patrick and Elise are surely going to hook up in part 8.

>>376533025
Gonna be so cute when it happens.

>>376532859

Doll Knight directly talks about the thirteen factories which indirectly implicates Ouroboros. So it's likely it's similar to Carnelia, one or two elements fictionalized, but mostly true.

Also I just finished 3rd. Help anons it won't stop raining.

>>376533013
Jusis is still my favorite CS

>>376533231
Move to Zero next. Or wait and pray if you're EOP.

>>376533160
Altina crying will be even more beautiful.

>>376533342
Should've been the second MC, to be honest. And then we could have perspective shifts between him and Rean.

>>376532230
A fair bit of it was related to them finding out they'd been brainwashed by the society into the coup.

>>376533013
>Pisses me off when Rean is acting all assholey about Elise to him
It's no different than the overprotective father thing.

>>376533378

I have two semesters of a college Japanese class under my belt (my degree made me take it) but to say I am hopeless with the language and kanji would be a stretch. I don't think that's quite enough to move to zero so I'll have to suffer like the EOP I am

>>376530185
I don't bother reading the books by searching, doesn't matter since they give you all of them in the next game.
I don't think I've read Gambler Jack though.

>>376531589
Because Agate is living my dream
The only difference is that my loli would be an orphan and completely depend on me

>>376532886
Probably this. The Soldats have the benefit of being based directly off Ordine, whereas the Orbal Gear had to be built from the ground up.

>>376533689
Except Elise wants to fuck Rean.

>>376533758
>two semesters
That should be enough, apply yourself, anon.

>>376534115
Well that's Elise's problem not Rean's.

>>376532230
Richard's ideals and motivation were revealed in FC. SC made the duke into a nice guy though. But to be fair he was never really a villain.

>>376532669
Limits of Strength is a classic too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgbZwVAKGlU

But the boss theme from LoH Mega Drive's actually underrated: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65y82KJaovM

First one to stop holding back gets to stay on my airship

Agate should pinch her cheeks.

>>376534119
Eh, not really. I took 3 years of living in the moon kingdom and some of the vocab is over my head. 2 semesters and you're just finishing learning basic grammar.

>>376534119

I already have some plans to review and go back over everything I learned (I have forgotten most of my vocab since it's been 2 years since the classes). I frankly completely struggled and barely passed. But I'll probably give it an attempt after the review.

>>376534484
>3 years in moonland and not fluent
What were you even doing?

>>376532230
>>376534234
Yeah the Duke's transformation seemed a bit too sudden to me, but then again post-coup would be the first time he probably had to face any consequences or see the actual ruling part of being royalty. Probably had an effect on him.

The sprites look better with it enabled. Too bad uncompressed images are too large for 4chan, because compressed shots of CRT shaders look blurry as fuck compared to how it actually looks in-game.

Some people just have difficulty learning languages.

>tfw started playing Zero after finishing The 3rd last week
>tfw 2 years of studying moonrunes is paying off

I'm Overdosing on Heavenly Bliss right now.

>>376534619
A lot more than most gaijin.

Do normies like this game?

>>376535191
Oof, I forgot how rough the sprites in the PSP version were compared to Evo or the Joyland PC port.

>>376530325
To be fair, Renne admits she didn't really do much and it was mostly just Bleublanc and Walter. 2 Enforcers is still good though.

>>376535320
Yeah. I played abit of Evo on my Henkaku Vita, I'm definitely doing my 100% run on there. Right now I'm doing the PSP version since I can play it on both my PC and Vita.

Will Tita still be flat?

>>376523941
It's substantially longer than both and was never localized before.

>>376517040
>>376517117
>>376517198
All that but still only 4 characters playable per battle.
