I'll get it but not for Vita.

>>315327250
He literally died for nothing He had no plans whatsoever after getting revenge..
>>
>>315327526
It is a combat Academy son. At least you go outside of the school for field trips so it is not as bad as many light novels.
>>
>>315327526
It's set in Erebonia, and you play as a class of students from a military school as you are sent to do your assignments which are military missions and whatnot, along with school related shenanigans. I forget if the first had it but the second game has relationship systems between the main character and the rest of party none of which changes the ending, and the Sen games seem to forshadow someone who might be a major villain at the end of the overarching story.

Also the main character is just a complete shitheap for several reasons.
>>
>>315327526
It plays better but you should start on nightmare since the game is too easy on normal. Story is okay. The setting is good but it's wasted potential.

The problem with Rean is that he pretty much stays the same until the ending on sen 2. He's never really knows what the hell is going on and is always getting pushed around by others. The letter that you get from Oliver at the end pretty much summarizes what this game is about.

I don't even mind his BS powers

I doubt an HD collection will be made until the erebonia arctic finished.
Some speculate there will be a fourth game.

Then again porting stuff to a million different platforms is a Falcom tradition.

Any reason to get it on Vita other than it being portable?

I don't even own a Vita. I play all my Vita games on a VitaTV, so wouldn't playing on PS3 be better since there's 720p vs 540p?

Actually, is there any reason for me, or anyone in my situation to get a ps3/vita crossplatform game on Vita rather than PS3?

They tried to do it in sen 2 by give you the option to summon it but it's damage is so low the only thing that is less useful than the robot would be Elliot. I don't think robot battles are meant to be in these games.

Why not? Just think of them as Suikoden's duels.

I haven't played Coldsteel/Sen but Falcom games became pretty casual recently.
Ys Celceta is easy even on nightmare, and remains fairly easy even if you refrain from using healing items. Fuck, why did they even allow unlimited items? That's retarded for Ys.
>>
>>315333228
There's a speed quartz that allows you to move twice and you can keep casting it until you run out of EP if you run out just switch with another character or just use items

Except that on nightmare every boss is a massive damage sponge that takes fucking forever to kill, so playing on nightmare for NG turns the game into an absolute chore.

Yeah it's a chore but it's easy since the attacks are predictable and easy to avoid. The dash button is magical and dodging at the last moment will freeze the boss a couple of seconds so you can rape his face. Not really interesting though, I agree.
Seven had a similar issue, sometimes I took 10 minutes to kill a fucking boss, and I wasn't underleveled. At least the last ones had different forms, so the fight was more entertaining.
>>
>>315333228
Trails of Cold Steel was dumbed down massively to appeal to casuals. They oversimplified the magic system and none of the fights are really that difficult. The games are like FC if you took out the penguin and final dungeon in terms of difficulty.

I know I'm basically asking to get spoiled but please tell me you get Joshua back somewhere halfway through and not just right at the end. Thats all I want to know

I like the party but I really want those two back together. I get it, thats the whole point but I don't want them to come back together right at the end of the game just to never hear of them again.

It is. Just like every other language on Earth. Japanese grammar and syntax is very easy to grasp, and incredibly consistent too. The hard part is Kanji, but that just gets easier as you go on.

So why do Kiseki fans hate Sen so much?

>the whole game is played by rule of convenience/circumstance (means the characters act because they feel like they should, not because they have something at stake), this filling the scenario makes for a too simplistic story

Last was mainly making a very good point how no character has anything at stake in all of this, but just do it out of their "circumstance principle" which is very very very common for light novel main characters

which is what makes Rean "generic"
>>
>>315352585
previous characters differed from the third point because
1- they're bracers, and they had a clear objective in mind or
2 - they were cops doing their job

in 3 they're students, yeah they're in a special class, but they're always butting in while having nothing at stake at all for them to care, and just do it because, well, they feel like they should

very common low tier light novel story telling

You have a point.

Stake is a pretty important thing and like you said In FC and SC the characters help people because well it's their job same goes for Zero and Ao.

But I have a soft for characters who do the world saving thing just because it's the right thing to do even when they have every right to back out.

I guess CS just handled it poorly.

Rean at the end of sen 2 seem pretty motivated, I guess the main difference is that you never see that develop into anything. Llyod during the prison break chapter was pretty motivated.

>>315354295
They're neutral towards him. He's never really at the top of the polls or anything but he places pretty high. He's not really hateable, he just doesn't stand out after games where Estelle and Kevin are protagonists.
