Calvard when?
I spent a lot of my time riding buses to get to places and completely forgot where some of those monster chests with high level warning labels were.
>>180531527
I don't see a problem with Trails taking inspiration from one of the GOAT JRPGs
Get comfy, it's going to be a long wait for localized CSIII.
>>180532646
It's already been blatant, I wouldn't be shocked if they went all the way with it
Tita!
Remember to thank KeA for bringing you to the timeline where you can play her games, EOPs!
>>180532590
Outside of Tangram gate and straight to the left - level 30 chest
West Crossbell highway 2nd screen, down and to the right - level 35 chest
Right below the doll factory bus stop - level 35 chest
Straight to the left on the road that forks to the Stargaze tower - level 25 chest
Can't remember if there were more though.
I'm on chapter 4 in Zero. What's a good place to farm U-Material? I need 23 more to upgrade everyone's weapons.

how would you react?
>>180533842
Shrug and keep playing
What's this?
Random status/parameter down quartz?
Another question, how do I not make randy useless as shit, he just seems so outclassed, Lloyd is busting out big boy numbers all the time with his self buff and randy just sort of, is there.
Ao chapter 4 for reference
>>180533940
I don't recognize that quartz, is it from Sky Evo?
>>180534423
Ao.
>>180534436
Dunno about Ao but it looks like the Bind Spirit quartz from Akatsuki that at the start of the battle lowers the enemies stats randomly.
>>180534063
He's nice for the time delay but outside of that, yeah, he can be pretty meh in relevant fights. At least his ATS isn't completely hopeless.
WOOOOOOOOOOW
Never trusted any portraited NPC again.
>>180535807
Congrats anon, you're at the part in Ao where the hype goes through the roofIt doesn't stop
Oh. my god.
You are the yes no one who will execute you it's me

>>180533940
Enemies that you attack on the field (outside battle) will have their movement slowed down.
>>180538629
thanks
>>180537303
That was probably the most frustrating battle for me because his gale dispels Tio's max barrier.
What a fucking man.
God damn.
>>180535807
Not like you can, since starting from Cold steel, they use the 3D models for "portraits". And even randos have them.

Doing that way would probably btfo every single party at once while keeping them all happy. Until when Rean has to bring someone with him in Calvard/crossovers.

>ywn see Tio move on to a happy relationship with someone else
Harems were a mistake.
>>180532646
Xenogears sucked, though. It's just a shitty plot dump.
>>180533940
Just use this guide for quartz (and other stuff, too. It's saved my EOP ass on numerous occasions):

Would Sara go for Osborne if he actually showed interest or would she go tsun on him?
>>180543440
You mean Sara would have a go at killing Osbourne if she could get away with it.
>>180543440
Osborne wouldn't stoop to screwing a Bracer.

We need more Joshuas as our MCs
>>180543286
To be fair, she's only 16 years old in CS3. She has plenty of time.
Tio > Rixia > Elie > Randy >> KeA
>>180544071
She'll be stuck wanting Roido-san until he rejects her for Elie in the final Kiseki game.
>>180544142
Here's the objectively correct list
Tio = Elie = Randy = Kea > Rixia
Rixia only because i barely saw any development on her, since i only played Zero.
>>180544257
Good post.
>game crashes on trying to play blackjack and poker
>>180544941
If you're playing on PPSSPP then try saving and reloading (real save, not save state), that fixed the issue for several people. You could also try to bypass the issue in the japanese version, save and then switch back to the english one.
>>180544941
My PPSSPP works fine for those. The only crash i saw so far on my end, is trying to play the slots, everything else works fine.
>>180545170
I'm using the Vita emulator, I'm that same guy who posted about his cookbook crashing on the 1st page but not the second.
The latter is a good idea, I'll try that.
Or maybe I'll just get sick of this shit and switch to PPSSPP already.
>>180533079
Actually the translation made it harder to understand some scenes for me.
>180531438
Hovered the spoiler by mistake, damn. It's always like this. I just can't stop lurking threads when I'm trying to finish a game. Is this autism?
>>180546647
could be worse, you could've done that with >>180535807don't
>>180546419
I've been cross-checking some scenes from the Zero spreadsheet and it's been pretty helpful. If you know moon in some capacity you can also look up the evo playthroughs from youtube for voiced lines.
>>180547020
>Not just patching the PSP version with Evo voices to play along the translation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIuZGeDUU4U
>>180547094
How?
>>180547094
I actually prefer having no voices since I can read faster that way. And anyway, last time I checked getting that to work seemed like a pain and no one here has managed to do it, right?
>>180546839
Is that related to someone fromIBC? The wiki already spoiled that for me.
>>180547289
Yeah i just posted it to be cheeky. It seems like the guy who made the translation also responded on the video, and said that it may require even further messing around if the translation messes with the lines.
Like Grace's lines in the race, are supposed to be way faster than normal so she can go through the text fast, but in the translation i noticed the text moved normally, so some lines were cut short.
>>180547421
yeah
shame, that's probably a fun one if you don't see it coming
I knew before playing it too, but I wished I didn't afterward
>>180547446
Oh yeah, that does sound like a problem indeed. I took a look at the instructions myself earlier out of interest but I have no prior experience in this sort of thing so most of it just went over my head. Maybe one day someone can figure it out and make it work with the patched version for those who'd like it.
>>180547693
Pretty much the only time I wasn't spoiled is at FC's epilogue because nobody ever mentioned Weissman with his fake name around here.
I'm pretty sure people throw his face around quite liberally

Where can i find the 10k Furniture item for Elie? I found the other 3, but i'm not sure where her's is.
>>180550257
St. Ursula's inn
>>180550680
Thanks.
I love how they all banter at Lloyd when he makes any remarks about having fun with other girls.
>>180551107
Elie's jealous as fuck the whole game.
>>180548727
No, that's why Osborne had to come in and clean up the mess.

Well shit, Lloyd is going to jail it seems.
Also Llya is too good for this world.

Huh? What the fuck, Falcom?
It's always weird when NPCs point out shit like this.
>>180552515
Quite similar to Zero's flash forward in a way, don't you think? Not related to uniforms, but howOnly Lloyd, Randy, Tio and Elie are there, and when you reach that point, Joshua and Estelle are with you.
Plus some faces that weren't there in the flash forward. I think it's not a mistake, it's on purpose.
>>180551790
And who was it that was perfectly fine with Hartmann again?
>>180552240
They're gifts for his son, and besides that they're treated well.
>>180552515
Does that implythe ILF DID fire the gun?
Because without prior knowledge of the series, that scene looked like a lame build-up.
>>180553789
Meant for >>180552802
>>180553789
Probably. Everything to make SSS safe. She such a good kid.
>>180553789It did actually fire before getting completely fucking annihilated. The aion in Crossbell blocked one shot and then sent the other one through a portal.
>>180554096
I think you got the timeline a bit wrong. Yametekuree was at trade conference.
>>180554227
Man, that was so annoying in Akiba Strip where CS1's opening was playing with Rean going "YAMETEKUREEE!" over and over again anytime you pass by an area or two.

Is there anyone who can even remotely contain our boy Mayor Dalmore?
- embezzles money for fucking years and gets away with it scot free because of 'muh mind control'
- loyal servants, butlers and chamberlains
- kind and compassionate towards the innocent orphans, offering them his own private resort
- a financial genius who travels the globe making business deals
- loving and caring pet owner, raised them all by himself
- pureblooded noble and scion of the auld order
- always eager to help bracers with their problems with the punks in town
- always eager to feed bracers to his pets
- has secret controls to the ruan bridge in his house which he uses to fuck with the retarded dock workers

>>180562606
>>180561350
So what's the deal with Towa, why do they keep pushing her so much?
>>180562809
Because she's going to be the canon love interest!
>>180562809
She's Kondom's Lightning, that's why her bonding scenes are platonic.
>>180562892
I thought that was Altina... but thinking about it, it works. Plus Towa is better than Alisa. I guess CS3 will be about Rean and Towa's married life as teachers.
>>180562809
She's Kondo's (Falcom's CEO) waifu. Expect her to get a lot of cameo here and there, but you won't be able to romance her as Kondo won't let the players touch her.
>>180562981
>they solve the main plot in the first hour
>the next 50 hours is pure slice of life
>>180562981
>I guess CS3 will be about Rean and Towa's married life as teachers.
I want to see Alisa and Alisafags btfo.
>>180562964
>>180563000
I kind of felt cheated for that in CS2, wasted my first playthrough on her for nothing.
>>180563126
A lot of people fell for it too, anon.
She's there in ToCS to NTR the players away from all the Class VII girls.
>>180563098
>>180563046
As long as the plot was about Rean and his students doing Bracer stuff and talking to people, I would be fine with it.
>>180563126
I felt something similar after spending my bonding time with Alfin. Although at least she got some romantic undertones, I feel for Towafags because that final event was shit.
>>180563340
I don't feel bad for towashitters at all.
They specifically went after a completely irrelevant, shitty character just because she was a cute little girl with a squeaky anime voice. She has no relevance to the plot, accomplishes nothing as a character, and is a blatant mary sue at that. No sympathy from me. Go waifu one of the real girls.
>>180563643
I dont think Towa is my favorite girl, but i did enjoy her for the fact that she wasn't in class 7, going for someone who wasn't in the class just felt right for me
>>180563262
>>180563126
>>180557868
neat
>>180563643
Can't blame Towafags. The quality of the girls in Class VII is really low when compared to previous Trails games.

XSeed's blog post about Zwei 2:
http://xseedgames.tumblr.com/post/162167486725/zwei-the-ilvard-insurrection-localization-blog
tl;dr
>game is on its final stretch before the release
>we'll be getting more info in the upcoming weeks
>the first game won't be included (iirc some people thought it might have been secretly bundled with this one or something)
Also detailed gameplay, story and character info.
>>180563643
Ironically despite all that Towa still gets more time with Rean than any of the other girls, since they all have other life things to do, while Towa ends up joining him at Thor's 2.
Just had Elie wake me up in the morning of the 4th day. I guess that means she's the top ranking person in my group in terms of points?
Sorry, but if I was Falcom, and I could make my own waifu to put inside a game, then she wouldn't be a brunette. She would be a qt blonde with twintails.
>>180563340
At least Alfin probably will get a romance route in the new game. Towa will just be a waste of time.
>>180565334
Alisa is pretty shit though.
>>180565710
That's a personality issue. This is a make-your-own-waifu situation so mine would be Alisa without the tsundere crap.
Actually, a better way to put it is to say that she would be Estelle with blonde hair. Now THAT is what I want.
>>180565786
>not saying you want kiseki Mafuyu
Come on.
Why does everyone in Trails with silver hair die?
>>180566190
Dont make me worry of Schera
And im pretty sure Trails hates Moms over anything else
>>180566190
Why does every single bespectacled character that doesn't join in your party suspicious as shit?
I hope XSeed selects a different text font for CS3. The japanese text looks smooth, yet the localized editions of CS1+2 looks like clunky garbage

That's right
>>180566172
Anon, I'm not really a weeb. I just love to play JRPGs. So I don't really know what this kiseki Mafuyu thing is.
I'm sure she's cute, though.

Why isn't anyone asking "where's Alisa"?
>>180566778
SC Estelle art is best Estelle art. She looks silly in 3rd
>>180566778
I love it. <3 MARRY ME, BIMBO ESTELLE!
>>180566850
They aren't because we already saw a picture of her early on.
>>180566850
She's been confirmed in months ago.
>>180566939
Only if she can keep her boyfriend/step brother
>>180566889
It's because her eyes are too wide which gives her a slightly crazed expression. It's so easily fixable too.
>>180566850
No one likes Alisa, even if she dresses lewdly by being the only one to wear a short as fuck skirt in the class.
>Twitter image
>large
Try orig next time
>>180566850
I hope in CS3 whenever she's not in a scene everyone asks "Where's Alisa"

>>180532736
OH SHI
>>180568796
You mean Ao after chapter 2? If so yeah, it's an intermission chapter, where fun things are fun. It's pretty nice.
>>180535807
Evil gets my dick going.
>>180569340
So I can skip everything and not miss anything relevant? or no?
I think what I miss most from tits 1 and 2 in third is the intermissions. The airship scenes in SC were top tier comfy and the perspective changes were always really well implemented.
>>180541902
I have no idea what is going on any more.
>>180542403
TT bosses usually have 1 BS ability, while most SC bosses for multiple BS abilities. I am having an easier time with TT on hard than SC on normal honestly, might just be since I so used to the battle system now after 3 games.
>>180569465
Why the hell would you skip out on the fun interactions?
>>180569974
Because I don't speak nip and Ithis spreadsheet is not an official translation, so the character interactions mean nothing to me. If this was an Xseed localization then it would be one thing, but reading through all the dialogue in this case is just a waste if it has nothing to do with the story
>>180556996
Joshua has a warped perspective when it comes to anything concerning Weissmann, so I highly doubt it.
Plus his gear and levels are shit again.
>>180570063
>Reading the spreadsheet to play the main story
>"Don't want to check the interactions because it's not official translations"
Are you fucking ok? Just read the dialogue from the person of your choice for the segments.
>>180570509
Regardless, it's a pretty lame and pointless chapter. 100% pure filler.
Will /fg/ kill itself with shitposting if toxyo xanadu outsells Ys VIII?
Left or right?
Also when did falcom general become a thing
>>180571792
There was too much going on to keep making stable threads on /v/
>>180556269
Zin didn't seem too keen on her during their Door in 3rd. Almost scared of it, in fact.
>>180571091
In the grand scheme of things? Sure. But part of the charm of the series are the fun interactions for me. I mean, it's a text heavy game. Seeing some SOL moments and not just 24/7 serious mode is nice.
>>180571792
The way I see it, at least the tumblr art is so ugly it'll stay forever contained in that dump and I'll never have to see it unless people drag it out on purpose.
>>180571894
>There was too much going on
Just say it how it is, the shitposting got completely out of hand. At least it's calmer here.
>>180572289
Not when you're reading an amateur translation that doesn't get the characters personalities across as they were meant to.
Like I said, if this was an xseed localization it would be different. But right not this is just wasting my time.
>>180571091
Pay attention to a few things though. The fortune teller lady may be someone you already know about, if you pay attention. Plus one of the rooms in this resort is going to be fairly important later, not to mention more cute KeA moments.
>>180572606
You might as well stop playing then.
>>180572735
Fucking kill yourself retard.
I'm not going to stop playing just because of one pointless filler chapter.
>>180572496
>Just say it how it is, the shitposting got completely out of hand. At least it's calmer here.
That was part of the whole "making stable threads" part. The too much going on part is weekly CS3 news and Crossbell being roughly TL'd
>>180572764
Wow rude. Feel free to take a month or two then before playing any more, you are obviously burned out.
>>180572901
I'm not burned out at all, FUCKING DUMBASS.
Why are you incapable of wrapping your head around this simple concept?
Oh boy, its the troll from yesterday.
>>180572953
Just so you know, that anon is not the same one who told you to check the chapter anyways.
But i have to agree with him, you're kind of a dumbass. If you're worried about character consistency on a filler chapter, and not for the entirety of main plot, then you may be a tad crazy.
>>180573134
>If you're worried about character consistency on a filler chapter, and not for the entirety of main plot, then you may be a tad crazy.
Uh, no, not at all. The main plot is the same regardless of whether or not the character interactions have been prettied up. I don't see why retards like you can't comprehend this simple fucking concept.
Now I'm pissed off because of dumbasses like you more than I am about the filler chapter. I don't see why they can't just let us skip all this bullshit.
>>180573253

Kanon is so pure, I kinda feel bad for him but at the same time he's so happy to keep the place clean 24/7 that it's heartwarming.
>>180573428
He did the exact same thing yesterday when someone said they weren't a fan of the CS setting, not that it was a shit game or the worst trails or anything remotely controversial, just that they couldn't get into the setting.
>>180573465
You may want to slowly kill yourself with the amount of unneeded anger you're having there. Lots of people love fun times especially to see more of their favorite characters. If you're not up for it, just complete the quests and hold down X to make it go faster. It shouldn't take that long, although your autism may end up killing you.

These aren't the real characters, they're just an amateur translation, you're such a fucking retard for being unable to understand this simple concept. Why am I surrounded by retards

How the fuck is a filler chapter about a stupid vacation at a beach "skipping through the story"? God you're fucking dumb
>>180573465
It's ME anon. I was me all along Anon!
Reminder that they could have left this entire chapter out of the game entirely and nothing would have been missing at all.
it's funny how nipfags say Cold Steel is "full of filler" while completely ignoring the fact that Ao has AN ENTIRE CHAPTER that is nothing but pointless time-wasting fluff

Chill out Gary, jeez.
>>180575183
Oh, it's the dumb reanposter. Your games are shit friendo
>>180575183
Anon, go seek a doctor about your anger problems. The chapter is not even that big.
I hate how a game in a series renowned for its overly long prologues, excessive amounts of dialogue and large sections where the main plot barely moves has a slice of life chapter. I mean what were they thinking in spending a small chapter developing characters and world building in a series where we have come to expect that. What a bunch of retards, am I right?
>>180575183
The entirety of Cold Steel has been filler so far desu

>>180575476
>Only if you're a retard who is incapable of recognizing foreshadowing, plot development, and characterization
The characterization is boring as shit as the foreshadowing is way overused. It takes 40 hours for anything exciting to happen. Before that, it's nothing but lowkey terrorist activity and high school antics - both of which aren't particularly entertaining.
>>180571543
i mean it did in japan
>>180575758
>high school antics
totally overblown by haters who can't be objective. The vast majority of the game is spent on field studies around the country or in the dungeon of the old schoolhouse.
>>180575904

LMAO No. Not even close holy shit.
>>180576015
If CS2 did anything right, it cut down the amount of time I had to spend between each chapter doing Towa's busywork and investigating the damn schoolhouse.
>>180576015
nuh uh he totally and utterly btfo the unobjective haters who just hate it because they're nipfag retards and it can't possibly be that LN cliches aren't that appealing to a lot of trails fans. we are all just too retarded and need to kill ourselves because of how objectively correct he is.
>>180576043
lol yes, sorry bro
>>180576171
Nice try, but nowhere did I say anything about me being objectively right. I said that the nipfag haters are incapable of being objective when it comes to talking about Cold Steel. It's the same way they are incapable of being objective when they talk about Crossbell. Objectively, there are a lot of problems in Crossbell that you folks tend to completely dismiss, even while simultaneously criticizing them in Cold Steel. That's a fact.
>>180576351
Not really, the difference between the two is that Crossbell actually has good characters and a good plot so any of the missteps can be excused. If Cold Steel was any good then the same would apply.
>>180576614
Cold Steel characters are fine. The plot is fine. Again, you're just a hater. You can't look at things objectively because you've already decided you hated it.
There's a reason why it was well-received on 4chan when it came out in english.
>>180576776
Not him but I don't hate Cold Steel at all, I just find it extremely unremarkable so far aside from a handful of elements.
>>180575998Maybe.
>>180571792
I think they may just do shit like this, so that if someone complains about it, they can just go "you just don't like it because you're racist" or some shit.

let's make a deal. You stop trying to project your own opinions of cold steel onto the entire Trails fanbase, and I'll stop calling you out on your bullshit. Sound good?
>>180578094
Cold Steel isn't even my favorite game you stupid fucking retard. I prefer the sky games. But unlike you I'm capable of being objective, and what I see is a handful of retards pretending their opinion is shared by an entire fanbase. It's not.

>>180576776
>Cold Steel characters are fine.
Rean Schwarzer is a boring MC with almost no personality. He's a generic friendly, but self-conscious loner that gets pigeonholed into a leader role for plot convenience. Class VII are also boring and one-dimensional as fuck outside of bonding events. Machias's hate boner for nobles got old pretty fast, and Fie and Laura's little feud was dumb as hell and completely out of character for both girls. Most of the villains don't really get interesting until CS2. Some of the NPCs are cool, but they don't get nearly enough screen time. Also, neither Crossbell nor Liberl had any characters as bad as Elise or Alfin. Jesus Christ, those two. Bleugh.
>The plot is fine.
The CS dulogy's plot is inconclusive as hell and is backloaded to oblivion by a ton of padding. I can excuse CS1's slowness since it's an introductory game meant to familiarize the player with Erebonia, but CS2 still has a ton of padding and pointlessly long dungeons. The duology lacks both the conclusiveness of the Liberl arc and the shocking twists of the Crossbell arc. Sure,Crow being Comrade C and Osborne blowing everyone the fuck outwere cool moments, but they still didn't measure up to anything in FC, 3rd, or the Crossbell duology.
>You can't look at things objectively because you've already decided you hated it.
Opinions BY NATURE can't be objective. That's why they're opinions.
>>180578375

Why do people who don't like Trails games even come into a falcom thread, holy shit. Why even be here? Just leave
>>180580765
Cause let's be honest, people either take bait so easily in this community or answer seriously and try to reason with people intentionally here to bait people and cause shit.
>Falcom thread
When the thread is pretty much entirely Trails just name the general Kiseki general
My man Adol doesn't deserve this
>>180581308
Its a holdover from the /v/ threads where general falcom discussion got lumped into them.
>>180581308
You're free to discuss his games, no one is stopping you.
>>180581308
There's not really much point in restricting discussion to just kiseki. Falcom general is best because, even if most of the discussion is related to Trails, we might as well bring falcom as a whole into the umbrella as well.
I mean, why not?
>>180581308
Well, the only substantial news we've gotten of Ys 8 lately is the whole shivering vase deal. Conversely, Sky 3 just released in may, we got the Zero leak and Ao spreadsheet, with Sen 3 news coming in weekly. Of course people are focusing on the Kiseki series right now.
Ys 8 and Tokyo Xanadu will be released later this year which will also spark more discussions then. No need to change the general.
The OP says this is the cutie edition, not the shitpost edition. So post falcom cuties.
Holy shit, isn't this a little too good?
>>180581930
You first.
>>180581930
Cute Lloyd coming through!
>>180582008
BURNING HEART MAN
>>180581930
So be itPlease develop her properly Falcom
>>180579376
It's pretty obvious why Rean is put on the leader role though, considering how he is so capable and deliberate in managing people. Having no personality is not accurate either since he is easily more complex than Estelle or Lloyd; perhaps you dislike how soft spoken and discreet he is, since it doesn't capture the imagination so easily. Machias undergoes significant development and it's surprising that you complain about Laura and Fie's feud when they solved it between themselves with little to none interference from Rean himself. Alfin and Elise are nowhere near on the same level, and I can easily point out worse characters than the latter in terms of being one note and flat in all games (gilbert, wald).
CS duology plot is fairly conclusive, it achieves what it set out to do and is a marked difference in tone to the other games.
>>180582339
>Having no personality is not accurate either since he is easily more complex than Estelle or Lloyd
How the hell is he complex? He's totally predictable and by the numbers.
How often do these two fuck?
>>180582907
Why is Wazy not the dominant one here?
>>180582339
>Having no personality is not accurate either since he is easily more complex than Estelle or Lloyd
Estelle was motivated by Joshua to grow as an overall person and as a Bracer while Lloyd tries up to live up to his brother's image. I don't see anything much similar in Rean in just finding himself which is honestly a very overdone concept and goal for a main character in the LN's he basically based from. His entire ordeal with his demon issue has also been discussed to death and could have been handled so much better to actually give him some tangible evidence to be scared of his own powers because so far, he hasn't used it on anyone who didn't deserve it.
>Machias undergoes significant development
I'm not sure he undergoes anything too insignificant since he had no grand showcase to show up that he got over his issues over it. Would have helped if maybe Marquis Hyarms wasn't cut out in CS2 or if him rescuing his dad wasn't followed immediately by the Infernal Castle popping up.
>Laura and Fie's feud when they solved it between themselves with little to none interference from Rean himself.
I mean I guess they would have fought it out eventually whether or not Rean was there or not but I still found the spat stupid, and so did Laura.
>Gilbert
I think Gilbert had his crowning moment of character building in 3rd when he goes to distract the dragions, which is say a lot more than what Elliot, Machias, Millium, Alisa, and Gaius have done.
>>180583132
Because he's the bottom bitch
>>180583152
Oh and I forgot to mention. Gilbert's a complete comedic relief character who manages to have a great moment for himself while Elise and Alfin have yet to do so.
>>180583132I want to be dominated by Wazy
I started playing TitS FC and realized the amount of foreshadowing on the first chapter. Like, when Joshua tells Estelle that silver haired angels deliver kids or that girl who wants to be reporter.
>>180583398
>>180582907
>>180583132
>>180575606
You could say the same for Sky and Zero/Ao.

Excellent stuff. I've heard from someone who visited them at E3 that late August seems likely for either Zwei II or Cold Steel PC. This blog actually doesn't confirm they aren't doing Zwei!!, but it's very unlikely anyway because the game's hard to get running on Windows these days and can't be updated to look better because Falcom designed the art for sub-HD resolutions.
>>180567447
Maybe they wanted her to look a bit kooky. After all, she hugged the edge out of two Enforcers, she must be on cloud 9 by now.
>>180569540
Airship intermissions in SC are just too good.
>>180583152
Gilbert's moment is neat and convenient for keeping the stakes high at that point, but the real surprise about him is how dignified he seemed before he conspired with Dalmore. The guy's a wimpy joke you can largely predict, and that's fine because he's funny as hell. Much as I find Alisa disappointing, she does have actual development at various points, and I wouldn't call the other characters flat except for Gaius and Machiasand Millium. Nor would I put them on par with many cast members in the Liberl arc, which is a shame.
Sen III looks like the final chance to make these characters properly interesting, and Falcom's had two and a half years to analyze fan feedback and work on improving old Class VII. The premise now is just too rich, and Ys VIII apparently shows the writing team still has what it takes. I think CS (II) mainly suffered from rushing and Falcom wanting to capture a new, younger fanbase while keeping the old one (which may or may not have worked). Oh well.
>>180579019
Ys VIII and Tokyo Xanadu will probably sell close to each other on Steam outside East Asia, let alone console. But it's clear Falcom's not going to stop making awesome games like Ys VIII if they can make time for them...all those years in development paid off.
>>180581308
If you want, I'm happy to chat about Xanadu Next or Ys.
>>180581930
Not cute, but have a cool Ys dad.
>>180584383
>several girls that want to fuck him
Technically you could ignore the Class VII girls but yeah this definitely is an issue which only gets worse if you try to bond with multiple girls. He has attention from Elise, Alfin, and Claire automatically
>>180584383
>>able to beat another knight who had a couple more years of experience than him
My favourite thing about Sky FC is the Loewe fight on the balcony, you go up against someone who completely outmatches you and he just wipes the floor with you.
>>180584641
>you go up against someone who completely outmatches you and he just wipes the floor with you.
unless you're not a retard and you manage to beat him.
>>180584506
That's honestly still way less problems than Rean.
Why do fans of le burning heart man unironically shit on le demon power man? It's fucking retarded. Just stop.
>>180584796
Fuck off mate, when you go in for the first time you're not going to have the meta setup and knowledge of how he actually fights to be able to beat him unless you constantly reload saves.
>>180584796
I beat him, I also beat Muller in SC.
Joshua also beat Loewe despite the fact that he was completely outmatched.
>>180584383
>a literal ear piece in a majority of the bond events
He's the main character, of course he's going to be.
>>180585093
I beat him my first time on my first attempt my first time playing the game, I wasn't even following a guide.
>>180584850
Half of those problems are not even problems, more so when we can apply some of those complaints to Estelle and Kevin.No one's going to deny Rean has problems, but that problem list is the definition of cherrypicking
>>180585010
Because Lloyd isn't a retard edge Kirito clone?
>>180584568
>Much as I find Alisa disappointing, she does have actual development at various points
A lot of my disdain towards Alisa is due to her mom not validating any of her accomplishments. I understand it's a front but the whole back and forth in both games between the two gets really repetitive.
I'm impressed this general has managed to become actually worse than the /v/ threads. It was a nice experiment but if its just going to be mindless aggression theres no point sticking around. its a shame as the first 2 had so much promise.

Interesting. I have a feeling Zwei will come first since they're already publicly talking about it in detail but who knows. Ys 8 will release on September 12th, dunno if XSeed will want to compete with that.
>This blog actually doesn't confirm they aren't doing Zwei!!
Yeah, I wasn't trying to imply that, just wanted to clarify that it won't be a package deal with Zwei 2. Shame about there not being much hope for the first game though, I understand the technical difficulties and all but I would have still liked to play it.

Is he from Napishtim? The art style looks similar but I can't remember who he was.
It seems that despite being saved, the poor fucker entered the NTR route.

Isn't this the first full weekend the generals been up? Guess someone had a lot of time on their hands on a Friday.
>>180585414
Honestly the problem is that there are a few posters who seem to think that their beloved crossbell is somehow immune to things that every single arc in the series has. Somehow they think their burning heart man is better than Rean's demon power thing. As a matter of fact, at least Rean's thing has some sort of basis in the series. What the fuck is Lloyd's burning heart even? He just magically gets flames around him and becomes super powerful?
I can't imagine why someone would defend that shit while simultaneously attacking Rean. It's totally hypocritical.

>>180586397
Is Burning Heart ever mentioned in the story and treated as a special ability outside of combat?
>>180586243
Is Burning heart actually story related? I just got it in my game, but i assume the effect is just gameplay stuff.
I mean, even if it isn't, there's plenty of crazy shit already. Explain Joshua, Loewe, Yin's clones, Cassius spinning so hard in the air he makes a flame phoenix, or Mueller making a blackhole with an attack. Burning heart is not really that out there by comparison. It's kinda like pushing his body to the limit, hence why he faints if you don't buff it back up after it's over.
Y'all keep bitching about muh powers but can someone please explain me how the FUCK can Tita have an orbital laser at her behest and have it function even inside or deep underground?
>>180586535
>They hit the peak when they made Estelle, there's no going up.
I think it goes without saying that they will never surpass best girl.
I'd rather want to know if its a recent satellite, or an ancient one.
>Somehow the majority of retail store in my town have already sold Tokyo Xanadu
>They ran out of stock in less than a week
Never knew this game was popular. I guess Vita user is just that thirsty for games?
>>180584506
I haven't played the Crossbell games, but I imagine I'll have the same issues with Lloyd when I get around to them. Rean's still shit, either way.
I would like Rean more if they just dialed down on all the bullshit they're giving him.
Reminder that Sky, Zero and Ao are all filled with only perfect characters with zero faults. Keep pouring all your hate and disgust towards CS, which obviously did nothing right. All its characters are awful, of course not counting the ones who already appeared in previous, absolutely perfect games.
Is Randy the biggest bro in Trails?
>>180586482
I've heard some people say that for Falcom releases "summer" usually means sometime in September
>>180587382
Meh, nobody is saying that. Just saying that rean is shit compared to every past protagonist.
Are people seriously shitting on Lloyd? Burning heart isn't even a plot point like shrek mode, it's just gameplay shit. Plus he has a reason to be good at deduction since he studied to become a detective. He is way weaker than some people in his group though, he's not really a Gary stu. For exampleRandy, Rixia and Wazysurpass him by a ton in terms of power, Rean has the potential to become way stronger than normal, especially with his power which is tried to the story, so he's not only good gameplay wise, but canonically can be quite good too, plus the giant robot.
I don't shit on either one though. But trying to find faults in just for the sake of pissing each one off is not really going to amount to anything more than wasting an entire thread on bullshit. Rean has his circunstances, and Lloyd has his. Rean has the unfortunate fact to be mixed in a game where most of his class doesn't develop much, or interact with one another all that well, but i can sorta understand why since Cold steel's main cast is bloated as hell, while in Crossbell, there's mainly 4 in the first game, and then it expands a bit in Ao, but not nearly enough to be on the size of the Cold steel cast, so it suffers for it.
>>180587392
He's up there with Oliver.
>>180587392
I hope he keeps being a bro in Sen III. Hopefully he cracks jokes, and plays around with his students.
>>180587618
Olivier is nice, but i feel like calling him a "bro" doesn't really fit him.
I mostly judge the craziness of S-crafts based on a given character's crafts, cause at the least those are canonical and believable skills a character can pull off. But there's multiple tiers to how you go from crafts to S-crafts
S-Crafts that just has the character pull out a bigger weapon or x object
>Berserga
>Tita's Crafts before Satellite Cannons
>Asteion Knight
>Pater Mater
>Requiem Heart
S-Crafts based off of training and showmanship of what a character has learned
>Termination Slash
>Radiant Lion
>Shadow Brigade
>Dragon Dive(?)
>Phantom Raid
>Wrath of Genbu
>Kaleido Force
>Sakura Morning Moon
S-Crafts based on an actual super-move a character has access to

My hot take is that all of the Trails games are good, and all of them have things that could be better.
>>180587558

This is Xseed releasing it, not Falcom
>>180588014
Woah now no need to get crazy with those way out there opinions anon
>>180587794
Hopefully Randy breaths some life into Rean's dreary looking teaching career.
>>180588179
but taht's not Rean's student.
>>180588008
>S-Crafts based off of training and showmanship of what a character has learned
All of estelles
You can see the end result of her training by watching Cassius S-craft
Estelle's slowly evolves to it from FC to Zero, to where it's almost identical.
>>180588031
Right. When XSeed says Summer what they really mean is Winter.
>>180588323
I'm wondering if it really belongs there or not, but it definitely isn't as crazy as Mueller chopping reality and making a black hole.
Where the hell did Noel's car go? I used it once and it's not at the Crossbell exists anymore.
>>180588008
S-Crafts that are random: Elliot's
This catfish is spooky.
>>180588612
>Music man plays a song the S-Craft
>>180588612
>>180588715
I vaguely remember hearing his Orbal Staff being tuned to actually play music somehow and his crafts does involve sleep and nightmare, as well as dealing miniscule damage.
>>180588667
Its a Wels, of course its gonna look creepy.
>>180588008
Doesn't Alisa literally grow angel wings and conjures a magical bow in her S-craft?
>>180588792
And it still made more sense than Jusis having freeze and explosion magic.
>>180588972
Arts technically are still a thing someone can use within a craft if that makes any sense. I guess it would save time to not make an exclusive arts for him and just gave him a craft instead.
Worth waiting for the PS4 upgraded version of Tokyo Xanadu or should I just grab it for Vita and save a few bucks if I'm interested?
>>180588612
>Not "GALACTIC CANON, FIRE!!
That shit is the dumbest.
>>180584383
>able to beat another knight who had a couple more years of experience than him
Only after spending almost a whole game training and improving for it. It's not like Rean was instantly better than Crow, he worked for that win.
Crow meanwhile, had experience and super mode right off the bat, but never really improved. He was on the side that had all the other robots except Valimar, and spent the whole war fighting tanks and other things helpless against him.
It's literally Amuro (rookie who'd never piloted before but increases in skill insanely fast because of all the other guys in robots trying to kill him he has to fight off) vs Char (experienced but on the side that has all the robots barring 1, so his skill at fighting other robots never really improves)
Crow was operating on easy mode for nearly all of CS, and that eventually bit him in the ass.
>>180589186
Wait for PS4 version.
>>180589187
>>180588957
Alisa's and Millium's definitely don't make that much sense. Neither does Machias chesspiece conjuration I guess.
>>180586603
>Is Burning heart actually story related? I just got it in my game, but i assume the effect is just gameplay stuff.
It's not. It's just a powerful gameplay effect.
Storywise Lloyd is weak sauce, which is why he needs saving most of the time and Rean sends him packing when they fight.
>>180589187
Well, the cannon isn't dumb but she doesn't have to go into outer space for that.
>>180589426
To be fair, both sides weren't fighting seriously, Cause otherwise Rixia would have demolished Altina and Rean.
>>180589186
Ex+ didn't really improve the game as much as the PS4 version of Ys VIII. Whichever is fine.
>>180589426
Then there's the reason then, Burning Heart is just a combat-exclusive ability while Rean's demon mode is something prevalent in the plot.
>>180589503
If they were going to hold back anyway, why didn't they bring Tio or Elie? Rixia shouldn't be risking too much against all the information at stake during that encounter in the first place.
>>180589427
That's what I mean specifically. It has the same problem as the Satellite beam shooting into places it shouldn't with a lot more baggage attached.
>>180589593
Because she was the most suited for infiltration is my guess. Lloyd also has some nice grasp on it, even if not on her level.
>>180589503
I doubt it would be that one sided with Rixia soloing everything considering Rean's mixed bullshit. She'd probably win at the end but it wouldn't be a casual stomp.
>>180589503
If they were fighting seriously both Lloyd and Rixia would gotten beaten shit out of them by Rean ogre mode/Valimar :^)
>>180588008
Let's get this through per installment by arcs. So we're missing Schera, Kloe, Julia, Ries, Estelle, and Josette.
>>180589593
I guess they wanted to bait newfags with Rixia's plump ass.
>>180589948
Has anyone even used Schera's 2nd S-craft instead of just giving people more turns? Kloe's AOE nuke can be somewhat of a secret power since she's basically a mage, Ries I have no clue, Julia is somewhat bullshit, Estelle can given a believable skill pass, and Josette just calls her brothers.
>>180589237
I'd be more convinced if he caught up after a year or two. Even then, the fact that only the MC is allowed to improve while everyone else just stagnates until they become jobbers is absolutely hilarious.
>that Ao Chapter 2 ending
>>180590019
Stop talking about plump ass, I'm starting to salivate.
>>180589918
To be fair, Valimar gives Rean a tremendous advantage yeah. I think Rixia could potentially down him before he tries though. But since the intention wasn't to kill, and just to get info, both sides weren't really going all out.
>>180590232
>Local bro screams due to murder
>>180589948
>Estelle, Kloe, Schera, Julia
Normal.
>Ries
Does the church teach summon magic?
>Josette
"We have no good idea for her, let's just use the plane"
>>180590247
I'm disappointed we can't see the character models scrawling through the vents.
>Mcburn uses his brain for once and decides to kill Elise to get Rean go full ALL OF ME
Yes or no?
>>180591327
>Implying Siscon Rean would even allow his precious imouto to be in such a situation.
>>180591558
Not like Elise is always at Reeves or Rean is always going to be surveying St. Astraea
>>180591327
No thanks.
Third time I see someone call Rean a siscon. How the fuck is he a siscon?
>>180591778
I assume they're mistaking the correct classification of Elise being a bro-con
Rixia could beat Ogre Rean, but she would get her ass kicked by Valimar. You can count on your hand the characters who could take on Valimar one on one.
Anyone else can't wait for Calvard's arc? Zin, Kilika and Walter are definitely going to be super important and they're amazing characters.
>>180591938
By that i assume you mean, Mcburn, Ariarhod, maybe Cassius ( taking into account how he just trashes a Reverie on his own). Is that all?
>>180592051
I wouldn't say amazing but they're definitely pretty cool.
>>180592105
Arianrhod lost to Lloyd, she's overrated shit.
>>180592182
>never played Ao
Steel has her helmet broken by a group effort and they best they can do is bring her down for a few seconds till she gets back up and can easily kill them if she wished.
>>180592105
Ein is the other if she truly can match Steel on a one on one, Thomas(we still don't know what he can fully do since he;s never been given the chance to go full out without revealing to the school what he is), Sigmund and Leo/Xeno are possibles
Can we talk about the fact that Rixia is only popular because of her slutty outfit? It's incredible to me that she is such a fan favorite among people who played crossbell even though she's not even playable for 90% of it
>>180592182
You clearly haven't played Ao. Her freaking helmet has it's own HP bar, and it was a group of 6. And even them they couldn't defeat her properly, and beating her is optional for extra DP? Or i believe defeating her after her helmet breaks.
>>180592559
What's to talk about? That's obvious.
>>180592605
You need to break her helmet to continue the story, if you can beat her (which is very hard to do unless you know what you're doing and did a good deal of prep) you get extra DP but it's treated similar to beating Loewe in FC in that she's impressed you could beat her but makes it clear she can still fight and can easily till them if she wished.
>>180592605
If these battles had a "canon" ending it'd probably end at her helmet breaking.
>>180592756
*kill
>>180592767
Probably, but even if you do make her kneel for a few seconds, she'd still get back up. I mean, the group is around level 90 on her fight, for most people. And if you scan her after her helmet breaks, she's level 120.
>>180592857
Actually, i don't remember. Does she even kneel if you do manage to beat her? Or is it like Cassius where she's still standing proud?
>Quest wants me to make 10 "Fantastic Dishes"
>Make 10 "fantastic dishes
>UH its actually the "Unexpected Dishes"
sasuga translation
>>180593008
if you want full DP you'll have to make way more
You all remember when Estelle was invited to Ouroboros? How strong do you think she'd end up becoming if she had?
>>180593070
You can't really get full DP on the first run for that quest. You can get the second highest DP, but if you want max DP for that one, you'd have to leave finishing it for the next chapter, but if you do that, you'll miss out on a hidden quest that happens right after that one is done on the chapter is's available on.
>>180593008
Make 20 unexpected ones. You can't get max DP without missing out on a hidden quest for leaving it for when you get more recipes.
>>180593115
Estelle will probably be broken by Weissman's stigma shenaningans.
Or they'll just throw her out of the plane after they got Joshua.
>>180592182
BTFO
>>180593278
>mindbroken Estelle
doujin when?
>>180593273
Actually, i may be slightly wrong here. Apparently there's another quest that may conflict with it, but you can get 23 recipes before the end of the chapter. Just be careful not to mess up.
>tfw you want to finish Zero but you keep coming back to these threads
wow this spreadsheet seems to have this scene with Reis regarding the blue flower all wrong. Suddenly nothing matches up with the text I'm seeing. bummer
>>180593115
F-Fuck, got spoiled on something else again. My selective reading isn't working out too well for me.
>>180593710
According to an FAQ, it's impossible to do all things in one playthrough and you specifically need to do two to do all the quests, something around those lines of having to choose between two things.
>>180593939
Not really much of a spoiler m8. It's just a thing that happens in passing and of course she says no
>>180593923
I believe he did not take into account carry over text. So yeah, it's not perfect.
>>180593923
Also its based off the EVO version so things might not always line up because of that
>>180593939
Could be worse. It could be about Crossbell's Sept-Terrion.
>>180594184
>>180594132
Everything was going well but that one scene seems to have way more dialogue than the spreadsheet includes. So it's not all bad, but this scene does seem pretty important, so yeah.
Oh well
>>180594445
Out of curiosity, what does the spread sheet say for that scene? Did you carry over your data from Zero? If so, it may be carry over text, or stuff from the Vita version like the anon said.
Although, unless it's a Vita quest only, i don't see that happening.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5eg5V3uEHw
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6MLMmq0CRw
So which one is better?
>>180594927
Both are nice, but i like how the original sounds better.
>>180594638
I didn't carry any data over from Zero, so that can't be it.
>>180594310
Different anon here. Someone on /v/ posted an unspoiled image of Guy's killer a few weeks back. How much of my Ao experience is ruined?
>>180594638
Here's the scene from the sheet
https://pastebin.com/RXt1n3zj
In the game itself, there seemed to be a bunch of dialogue that wasn't included
>>180594310
>Got spoiled about Rixia and Crossbell's Sept-Terrion
I might as well just give up
>>180595248
Rixia is the lowest tier spoiler, Zero lays that out early as hell
>>180595083
A good lot when the big betrayals start happening and that person shows up.
>>180595083
You've still got plenty of surprise for you, buddy.
ANTON MAH BOY
>>180595248
Those spoilers mean jack without context. You know the Harry Potter one people say all the time? It doesn't mean anything without knowing the why or how. Same in this case.
>TFW fishes in chapter 3 give EP cut 3, Action 3 and Mind 3

>>180595492
Damn. Oh well.
>>180595550
That's good to hear.
Also, one last question--some asshole spoiled what happens with Mariabell in Ao. Is that spoiler as major as Guy's killer? Thanks again.
>>180595083
It's big but there's still a good deal of reveals.
>>180595598
I think people don't actually hate knowing the story in advance. It just makes you remember that the whole thing is just fiction and it's harder to immerse yourself.
>>180595957
And here I was stealing high level quartz from Noel and Dudley
>>180596110
>MariabellYeah
But the murderer one is worse for me becausethe game tried to frame it on another personand it's lame since you know the truth already
It's fine though, that's not really the biggest twist the game has to offer. Besides, you'll spend half of your time doing random shit anyway so there are lots of things to look forward too.
Just block 4chan from your browser or something.
>>180594445
Maybe it's related to having read about it, or talked to some other NPC before? Or maybe the file he translated had carry over text, or a mission from a past game or something.
Honestly I read up on spoilers for SC soon after FC first released and by the time we got SC I completely forgot about them. And chances are we won't get Zero and Ao for another 3-4 years.
>>180596819
The translation has less dialogue than the in-game text so it's not that he translated from a file that had anything carried over. I'm not sure what the issue is, but I'm over it at this point. It was just one scene so it's not a huge deal.
>TFW Anton has gone on more dates than you have

>Best girl
You mean from brainless bimbo to burning heart man
>>180599051
She also went from getting one shot by literally everyone, to suddenly beating them in the final dungeon, which was the spam of a month or so.
>>180599315
So Estelle would destroy class vii then.
>>180599315
Anon, she traveled the entire kingdom of Liberl training, fighting monsters all the way.
>>180599480
Yes and Class VII travelled all over Erebonia fighting and training but they still jobbed horribly even at the ending.
>>180599623
No, they took a train from point A to point B and then got handed a short list of very specific tasks to complete.
>>180599623
None of Class VII aside from Laura, Rean and Fie had access to Godlike teachers though. Estelle had Cassius, Joshua had Ouroboros, Zin is an adult who mastered Taito, and so forth.
>>180599432
>comparing a group that fights B with two monsters to a group that fights B with Duvalie and two monsters
Sky team as a whole is stronger but let's not go overboard, Estelle would have problems against Rean and Laura.
>180599623
>they jobbed to Crow and Vita
>losing to McBurn is bad
>>180592051
What would their arc even entail anymore, now that all their misunderstandings have been settled? Are Zin and Kilika going to pull a Renne on Walter?
>>180599859
I doubt that'd happen but since all of them are from Calvard I'm sure they'd all appear in some form.
>>180599859
Zin fully surpassing Walter? He still second guess himself.
Please Falcom, make the Calvard protagonist a girl
>>180599801
While it does make sense that they lost to Mcburn and the other high end enforcers, compared to the other protags who won all of their endgame fights, its rather underwhelming.
>>180599801
She'd probably be able to beat em all 1v1. But I'll bet she'll have trouble with Oni Rean, Laura and Fie. The rest would get jobbed.
Reminder that Estelle and the gang:
>Infiltrated an ouroboros base
>Fought her way through the ouroboros flagship "the glorious"
>Successfully tamed not one, but TWO ouroboros enforcers
>Actually was able to defeat the endgame bosses

I still never got why Sharon, Claire, Toval, Angie and Olivert where not party members for Infernal Castle. Not only did ll of them have some connection to one oft he bosses, but the whole "Class VII has to job to everyone but the two final fights) would have been averted.
>>180601035
Seems that falcom *wanted* the playable roster to be canonically weak kids who have to be saved by the grown ups.
>>180600872
Or is she?
>>180599859
Is Walter edgy in the Japanese script? He felt so out of place.
>>180600669
They already replaced Altina and Cedric and their VAs are still alive.
I doubt they'd drop her over that.
>>180602734
Yeah, he's probably just trying to come off as a tryhard though.
>>180601035
That's probably exactly why they did it, to show that Class 7 still has a long way to go so they wouldn't get too big heads over saving the country and being the ones who ended the Civil War.
And also so that they could show their improvement in 3 compared to all the new kids when they're not jobbing anymore.
Though it's really annoying that you only get the full roster available freely in the epilogue when you're locked in Trista and can't do anything but run the dungeon over and over.

I think we'll have a way to play Zwei!! very soon in English since I've been chatting with the hacker working on its fan patch. Apparently there's still a bunch of work to be done, but they want to release the patch around Zwei II's launch, so it might be a while before the patch is fully stable.
>>180603965
Tom @ XSEED's likeliest to use memes (unless Nick goes overboard with Zwei II's localization, but he's pretty good about finding the best meaning for a silly scene), but I found no meme-tier dialogue in Brandish: The Dark Revenant which was pretty much all Tom's work.
Oh hey, you guys should play Brandish TDR. It's only got complex dungeons, puzzles, and pretty good combat.
>>180605483
I'm not really fond of the character movement in Brandish. Really weird compared to the XYZ.
>>180605483
Played Legacy of the Wizard a few years back on an NES emulator. Fun little Metroidvania-type game.
>>180605673
You just learn to input strafe and forward/backward/jump commands ahead of the animations, since the games buffer commands just a little bit. Worst I can say is this takes time to get used to, but jumping challenges aren't too bad after that. I wonder how Falcom would reinvent Brandish's controls and mechanics if they ever wanted to go full 3D while abandoning the world-turns-around-you premise. They still have the chops to make new Brandish content if Dela Mode in TDR says anything.
>>180605718
Give the MSX2 version a shot for some redesigned areas. Both versions are great, basically if Xanadu became a more conventional ARPG of the period but still as challenging and uncompromising.

>>180609897
pfft
What do you think it will be like having Rean as a teacher? Will his class walk all over him or will he rule the classroom with an iron fist like papa?
>>180610315
First and foremost, his reputation will set the tone of the class where a given number of the class will either be star-struck or be skeptical of his ability. Everyone knows he's the hero who stopped the civil war but will mostly attribute that to Valimar and not Rean's own considerable skill. So I'm expecting kids who don't particularly like him to challenge him off the bat.
He'll probably be humble as all shit though, he'll just laugh over remarks, deny rumors of his strength, and generally underplay himself
Shizuku makes me want to commit a crime.
Help.
>>180610898
The police are right there, anon. Be careful of what you say
>>180610898
I, too, would like for Arios to kill me so that I can swiftly experience the sweet embrace of death
>>180610898
Kill yourself
>>180611070
What does pekori pekori mean anyway?
>>180610898
You're under arrest.
>>180610898
>Shizuku
Why her? KeA I could understand, but shizuku?
I wonder if Joshua and Estelle will ever settle down and have children of their own. With how much Estelle loves kids, i figure they'd have more than one.
>>180612329
They have a daughter already.
>>180610315
Definitely no iron fist.
Way I see it, he'll either let them walk all over him because they dislike him and he's got no real reason to believe otherwise. He DID inadvertently get daddy back into power which led to Kurt and Juna losing their dream jobs and in Juna's case her national identity.
Or he'll be like Sara and give no fucks about bothering to make them respect him figuring that like he did with Sara they'll come around to him eventually.
Either way, I expect the same thing with Sara. They'll think he's a joke until he kicks their asses in a sparring match, and start to respect him when he saves their asses from an Oroborous attack.
>>180611070
Thats one threatening man of the law, flapping is hardcore
>>180613135
That's probably the best option for Rean considering his personality/actions.
I hope that they let Rean take the backseat and not be playable for the first couple chapters so that you get sometime to look at the new kids and then once that's over, everything kicks into full gear.
>>180613797
Definitely not. He's the protag, he's the guy you're playing in the hub areas, and we already see in the trailer that the game starts with Rean's arrival at the campus from his perspective and seeing the students lined up for presumably the opening ceremony.
>>180611905
this anon has blind fetish :^)
>>180614323
I wish he took a backseat like Estelle/Joshua did in 3rd but then again his story technically was only half finished in CS2.
>>180613264
Man, Erebonia really is massive especially after acquiring both Crossbell and North Ambria, which I'm still confused as to why Osborne even annexed it in the first place.
Kind of makes Sara's quote about "Erebonia, not North Ambria, is my home now" at the Northern Jaegers a bit hilarious now.
will I be able to romance best robot Valimar in CS3
>>180614323
We have screens where he's not in the party with Juna, Altina and Kurt, and he's not in reserve either.
>>180614891
He's already a part of you, anon.
Wonder if Testa Rossa has any semblance of its original personality aside from skeltal dragon roars resounding in the cockpit.
I think I'm in love with a murderous psychopath. wat do?
>>180614891
No but we'll have party scale robot battles.
>>180614951
I imagine he sends the kids out to due some field work while he either watches them or go collects information, then has the kids be dragged into whatever he's doing and vice versa
>>180614468
The salt zone is under church control, there's no telling what could be in there that he might want. No coincidence the first gralsritter on the scene of the disaster is going to be in CS3.
I'm actually glad I played CS first. Ao spoil ILF, Osborne, Garrelia Fortress, how the civil war ended etc but CSII didn't say anything more than the trailer has shown. Hell, it doesn't even tell you that Erebonia actuallyfired the gun.
>>180615110
Was there a point in either CS except for the Lloyd section where Rean wasn't the viewpoint character?
Even when he couldn't fight in CS1 he was still in the party and still the guy you played as when the team scattered.
>>180616163
Yeah I always tell people to play Cold Steel first before crossbell. Cold Steel just seems far more self-contained with many less spoilery references to the crossbell games.
Butthurt nipfags are wrong again.
>>180616383
That one part in act 2 since he's outside fighting S.
Honestly, all this time I thoughtthat Renne's parents had abandoned and sold her. This entire scene is fucking me up real good.
oh shit let's go
>>180615682
>Erebonia's Dominion is a sexy silvery daddy
Keep him away from Sara
>>180617349
I doubt Sera will go for him when it's revealed he'sthe 5th anguis
>>180617349
>old man
>sexy
Noire, is that you?
>>180618001
>>180615682
Is that coat a Dominion uniform? I was under the impression that Kevin is a chuuni.
>>180618360
Could be the traveling priest guise.
Will kiseki break a world record for "Longest winning streak for antagonists across a single series" or will ouroboros fail at some point?
>>180618556
They already lost in CS2 anon. Whatever they can rebound is for CS3 to show.
>>180618630
>They already lost in CS2 anon.
Nah they didn't. They got what they wanted again in cs2.
>>180618781
Osborne flatout hijacked their project and is sending heavy hitters to get it back in CS3. How did they win?
>>180618630
They're probably going to be more desperate this time. I think i read one line in a magazine scan "Ouroborus strikes back" or something like that. They may break apart.
>>180618892
They got the mechs fighting in the castle which is what they wanted. Osborne hurt them only a little tiny bit.
>>180619061
>They may break apart.
Wtf now you're literally just making shit up
>>180619467
If anything, the plan went without problems. Not Amuro vs. Char took place and something probably happened with the other divine knights, but Osborne probably has a good idea where they are now or has access to the information/location the other knights are in while Ouroboros are in the dark where the knights are.
>>180616686
I accidentally spoiled myself on Renne's parents because I looked her up because I was curious what age she was and her wiki has her last name
>>180619467
If they got what they wanted then why are they throwing their heavies at Osborne for the sole purpose of retaking the project? There's no point to go after Osborne if they got what they wanted and can continue their project as planned.
>>180619720
Didn't she has her last name in her first appearance though? It was obvious though, that family is the only one with face portrait and the husband has purple hair. Not even Cecil's parents have one.
>>180619602
I don't think that's true, Ouroboros probably has a pretty good idea where they are. They knew where Ordine and Ashen were, and another is all but guaranteed to be in the hands of the seventh Anguis. Osbourne has probably hidden Ordine somewhere now though I guess.
>Elie can make a fantastic carbonera
>But can't even make a goddamn ham sandwich
>>180620556
She's perfect.
>>180620706
She's boring. Shirley is the perfect one.
>>180620706
Dudley is just watching the team cook some fuckups for this quest and Elie delivers with the U-material instead of making a sandwich.
>>180620846
I agree, Shirley's design in 3 is literal perfection.
>>180621120
Long Hair is literally perfection
>>180621120
She's perfect in Ao, too.
Kiseki needs more real jaegers like red constellation. I swear they're the only people in the series who actually go ahead and kill people.
>>180622447
Garcia, Leo and Xeno are not afraid to get their hands bloody, they just ensured Fie didn't see the worst parts of it.
>>180614995
Give her Testa Rossa as a present
fuuuuuck
>>180623305
Oh boy.
>>180620556
Elie is cute!
>>180608678
I can't wait to see her crying face for the first time.

Welp, had no idea this was even happening, color me excited. I hope everything goes well and that person will find a way to make things work. Thanks for sharing the info.
How soft is Elie?
>>180619720
Didn't you play the 3rd? That already spoiled it.
>>180624472
What would Altina even cry over?
oh fuck
Is it just me, or does the quality of the translated dialogue in Zero get better over the course of the game? In the beginning it was really shaky, but i'm on Chapter 4 and there's very little mistakes now.
What's your favorite comfy OST?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wV8KAE25CH8
Someone post the early designs of Rean/Alisa, I know you have it
I want to look at what could've been instead of weeaboo eastern blade and generic anime tsun
>>180625878
Me going down on her second base
>>180626748
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhtDfEPllFU
>>180626641
If they translated it in a more or less chronological order then it makes sense, you're bound to improve at least a little if you're translating such a long text.
>>180626748
Comfiest of them all https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8e64kz0zWE
Zero also has many relaxing hub and exploration tracks, the one from Mainz being my fave https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXeReyUu_2g
>>180626823
This one?
>>180627119
Yeah, god I would rather have these designs than the super anime that is all of Class 7
Except for Machias and Crow, Combined blades and shotguns are always cool/unique
>>180626748
Even though it was an annoying area, I really liked https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMAFY92VEbI
>>180627119
Those designs look hideous.
>>180627231
Maybe it's because those designs are unpolished but they look just as generic.
>>180627309
Can't disagree with that, I would gladly take Pistol Young Rean over another OP sword style MC anytime
>>180627431
The weapon choice might be cliche but I think Proto-Rean looks awful. Somehow even more generic without the anime hair
>>180627119
Towa is still a qt
>>180627431
The MC is Proto-Alisa though. Proto-Rean acts more like Crow, that's why the actual Alisa's relevancy is pretty low.
Or so I heard.
>>180625213
Isn't that the same as her fake parents? Not that anon but I didn't notice it because of the different artstyle.
>>180626641
But did they get the meaning right?
>>180628016
Well kinda, Crow himself was still planed as it's been comfirmed he was in the planing stage since before Crossbell like most of what happens in CS1/2.
>>180628196
I guess the switch to 3D really fuck them over then. If they really planned it before Crossbell, half of CSII shouldn't be literally nothing.
>>180619795
They got what the wanted for their plan, but Osborne showing up and hijacking it was an unexpected complication.
Still they'll only fail if they can't retake it in 3 and Osborne reaps the benefits of...whatever their plan is supposed to instead of them.
So they'll only lose if Osborne actually gives them losses here and remains in control of their plan for the next phase. And considering his control of Crossbell isn't going to stick, I'm guessing that won't happen.
The only one that actually lose was Vita, who was disgraced outplayed and had her familiar destroyed, and she pretty much deserved it for how shittily she treated everyone.
>>180628404
Ereobnia was meant to come first, but they decided to do Crossbell first which is why Ao reveals so much of what happens in Erebonia. In hindsight this bit them in the ass since Erebonia with the writing team Crossbell had would have been much better. Sure Each arc has the same two writers, but the team as a whole switches.
>>180628141
The man has Renne's hair and eyes, they discuss how they still regret what happened to their daughter but are happy that the baby is healthy and Renne ponders over their words. I don't know if they could have been any more clear without getting in our faces that they're talking about their biological children. In Zero they still have the same outfits and hair color which made it an easy connection. But I understand that the artstyle change can throw people off.
>>180594927
original is mixed better but evo brings some interesting things to the table with some more obvious callbacks to something resembling a motif with the bass chords or whatever it is
>>180603235
top right is zin dude
I REGRET NOTHING
>>180629203
star thrust 2 is broken for the first while of ao, you missed out
So does Randy's latent bloodthirst also count as another comparison to how Falcom did this sort of character before and still messed up with Rean?
>>180629547
I thought Rean was more similar toArios.
>>180629712
I guess you could see it that way too.
I absolutely fucking love the urban feel of Crossbell. I guess another artbook just chockfull of characters just hanging around hasn't been released since before CS huh? I honestly wouldn't mind art of them since Heimdallr is somewhat modern.
>>180629315
Wait, upgraded Combo attacks carry over to Ao?
...I guess my 0 bonds carry-over save might not have been the best idea I had.
>>180629961
These pictures made Randy look like a lolicon
>>180630123
Or just another big brother
>>180630123

>>180630503
>>180630098

I imagine you can probably max out all three party member's bonds in one playthrough and have an event with all of them?
>>180630625
most definitely
>>180630641
I sure as hell ain't playing through Zero again, at least on emulator, but maybe I should reload a save and just buy every single piece of furniture before the last chapter if that makes any difference.

>>180635035
Thanks anon. Sadly I couldn't find out how to use those models. I also ripped Edna, but same, can't really do much beside that as trying to import them elsewhere they bug out.You can't make Edna topless.

Budding breast is the best breast.
>>180635961
You know 64 size is always completely flat right?
Not to mention the official art shows she's flat as fuck.
Hairy chest with delicious moobs is the best chest.

All "Dick therefore Goo" cult members need to leave, this a Septian thread.
Now that I think about it, Crossbell actually has more area than CS except it's smaller.
>>180636925
Idon't remember this doujinSauce? reverse search yielded nothing
>>180625213
The point of the 3rd was to make you think thatperhaps they had moved on after selling her off, and she was just a "thing" they used to achieve a good life. Loewe even tells her they're not worth the trouble of cutting down, since he also thought the same, Renne didn't want to mess with them, which is why they're alive.
>>180637406
It's by the same author. Just look up his other doujins in English. I found it on hitoma I think.
>>180636925
DELETE THIS RIGHT NOW
The fact Crossbell has 11 fucking areas to go through to chat with every NPC is a little annoying. Still, it's enjoyable.
>>180636925
Tita a cute
>>180637406
It's on panda.
>>180637621
STOP
>>180630625
No, that doesn't work. That works for the achievement. But the Co-op craft upgrade only carries over for the person you did the last event with. You can play the game again on a clear file and carry over more than one though, but the last event in the last run is probably the one that will be referenced in Ao.
Say you did Randy in the first run, and in the second you did Elie. Now you'll have Randy's upgrade, and Elie's. But i think only Elie's will be referenced in additional text in the game like whenErnest talks about taking Elie for himself, and making her work for him, which pisses off Lloyd, and Noel gets surprised.
While without it, he just remarks on how he's completely insane.
>>180637621
Is it NTR that she get deflowered even thoughit's a dream?
>>180637597
I'm surprised at how much variation the NPC dialogue has. I don't think any sane company would want to translate this.
I wish they released Crossbell in Vita, oh well.
>>180637597
Most of the areas outside of Crossbell don't really change dialogue until a new day happens, or a big event. Inside the city usually does. Remember to check the guild board that shows you where all the bracers are.
>>180637916
Xceed localized SC so they can localize everything else.
>>180637724Dream. Tita asked about Renne's past, and she offered to "show" her. They were in Phantasma.
>>180637943
I'm at the beginning of chapter 2 where the SSS are heading to glasses lawyer man. The board said Estelle is on Bellguard but I don't see her anywhere.
>>180637986
I'm not familiar with the behind-the-scene stuff, but didn't the head translator literally wanted to kill himself or something because of the huge amount of work?
>>180638019
If I remember that part correctly, go to the 2nd floor, to the very end of the hallway, exit to the outside and down the ramp to the edge. I missed her at first as well because I didn't notice her due to the pop in.
>>180638123
Drama queen who wanted attention, and withheld the translation by a long while because nobody gave a fuck. Things moved forward after that person got fired.
>>180636925
>>180637621
WillErikaforgive me if I fapped to this?
so this is now a loli general
Soo.. Schera or Agate? Is it worth playing through twice to see both sides of the dialogue?
>>180638748
Personnel preference, both have fun dialogue, Agate is a better gameplay wise. I prefer Schera, some people prefer Agate
>>180638393
Agate won't
>>180638748
I haven't, but if i ever replay the game i'll probably check. Agate's was pretty fun.
>>180638806
>Personnel
Heh...thanks kid.
>>180639084
Whoops
>>180638728
Ricotta tapestry and dakimakura when?
DO IT FALCOM!
>>180638748
I picked Agate so I can pretend Adol is in Trails.
Schera's design and personality didn't click with me, even after her the optional event in the final dungeon.
Oh yeah one more thing, does Kevin have anything to do with the Carnelia books I collected and read in FC? Just seems like a possibility.
>>180638728
I like how every crush-type characters (excluding not!Dogi) since Origin are speedy little girls.
>>180639604
The woman Grailsritter in them is his superiorand a minor character in third
>>180639604
He doesn't. But you're right that Carnelia is based on a real person. The Carnelia itself is theFirst Dominion, and the guy is a CS character.

>>180640079

>>180640191
It's bloomers. Those are pretty much old-school panties technically.
Dogi is better than the annoying lolis.
>>180639604
>>180639930
By the way don't look up on a character's profile after they reveal something to you because some have double reveal.
>>180640339
He's different.
Never played Zero but I gotta know. Does everyone dote on KeA?
>>180641008
Why yes. She's basically the group's daughter.
Anelace vs Rean who would win? I always figured Anelace because she can defeat Richard. Plus she's invincible.
>>180641094
If we're talking before Sen III, probably Analace i'd guess, not sure if he could with Ogre mode. In Sen III i figure he might win. If we count Valimar, he could beat her before Sen III with him.
>>180641094
Or is she?
Unless AnalAce mastered any form in the timeskip Rean will win.
>>180641008
>>180641070
You can't romance her? Sad...
It was a good run, lads
>>180641094
>Anelace
>stronger than Richard
Is this some new meme?
>>180641204
I wonder if she'll appear in CS3. The interactions would be interesting since they could both talk about Yun Ka-fai.
>>180641315
She defeats richard in the star door.
>>180641315
In one of the doors you can defeat him with her which gets her Cassius' old training sword along with a fair bit more story. Most people probably figure that's "canon".
>>180641369
To be fair, Richard had a mental block, and was in prison for a while. After the 3rd, he can probably beat her.
>>180641443
Isn't he just some blue collar worker at that point though?
>>180641523
That he is. After 3rd he could be easily beaten 1v1 by even Tita without her orbal gear.
>>180641523
True, but his mental block is gone, and he is probably keeping his sword skills sharp. You can see him talking about trying to better his skills in Phantasma near the end.
>>180641205
>Wanting to romance KeA

Thats an awfully modern looking car
Can anyone confirm something? Not sure if this is Evo only, or if it's in the PSP version. Apparently, you can get +1 DP in the final quest for the prologue, totaling 2+12 DP.
You need to go talk to the members from Trinity and Ignis after having lunch with Grace, and apparently two will tell you something that neats you +1 DP.
>>180641667
There are those who want to romance Millium of all people.
