>Why is my present... a BOY?
>he doesn't want his own q.t. slave boy
u gay, son?
>>316537138
because the game needs a typical edgy darklord boy to even out the giga smug from estelle
>>316538231
>even out
She basically slaps the edge out of him, multiple times
>>316538610
It's no secret Estelle is just an Asuka clone.
>>316538434
Yeah but he breaks up her giga smug and he also shuts her down sometimes. Its not all one way or the other, they'd make a good couple if joshua didnt look like such a fuccboi in a dress
>That's love and peace, baby.
>If you're going to puke, do it off stage.
>I've gotten worse injuries than this from shaving.
>I've always loved you.
The chapter achievement quotes are all pretty good, but I would have made the last one "Where the Stars are" which is a more accurate translation of the "Wherabouts of Light" and could have like 10 different meanings depending on your interpretation of the game, at that point.
>>316538736
Asuka doesn't have hair intakes, twintails, ahoge, or red eyes
>>316538434
You mean...she's the sheath of his edge?
she's the sun of his darkness
hmm
>>316538862
>she's the sun
That would be why her name is "star bright"
>>316538824
is this english
>>316538736
Yeah but Estelle manages to handle her mom's death better than Asuka did. I guess if Estelle had to be there for her mom during an incredibly insane and slow decline of her mental health into death she would be incredibly fucked up like Asuka.
Honestly Cassius didn't do a half bad job raising two kids.
Why is Estelle such a slut
>>316538785
>Joshua in a dress
Well he's not the one wearing the pants in that relationship
>>316538970
Here, I made a handy graphic for you
>>316539156
Honestly I have the second game downloaded but I really don't want to start it until I 100% the first one. I was the anon from the thread last night that was talking about this too.
Seriously fuck these chests.
>>316537248
feeling salty after you lost your toy, Weissman?
>>316539363
Also I guess compounding on this is the fact ill have nothing to do but get to work on learning moonrunes if I want to play the other entries after the second game cause it seems like translation is either super slow or nonexistent...
I mean I was planning to do it eventually but it seems like now my backlog of nip games is just becoming too big to ignore.
>>316539561
Is Analace gay?
>>316539363
I never want to 100% either game, max BP on NG Nightmare was enough for me

>this little boy almost murdered my ass
>guess I'll take him to live with my daughter
>>316539363
I did the chest achievement by downloading a save from a fellow player from steam. I did my very best to get them all but still missed a few I don't know how.
It's also fucking impossible to get that book collection and all the bracer points without a guide.
>>316540262
Technically possible, I assume. With two retarded and cruel steps:
1. Talk to everyone every time you do anything ever.
2. Go everywhere, press buttons when looking at every surface, double tap the chests.
Boom, 100%, 600 Hours.
>>316539704
You bet.
>>316540515
You can probably do this in like 100 hours in FC desu. The number of interactive objects in these games is also pretty low.
In SC just forget it.
>>316540515
The level of effort that the devs put into upgrading all the dialogue for each small advancement on the story was some insane shit.
>>316540515
It's a lot easier to get the Gambler Jack books in SC. The only one so far that was really hidden was chapter 1. They're all either available throughout a chaper in a conspicuous place or they're only available for a short time but in an area with only a few people that you're likely to be talking to everyone in anyway (like on the airship rides). So far the only one I missed was chapter 1 and that was because I forgot to run and grab it after retrying the fight a few times and I didn't want to fight that sword faggot again just to get it.

>>316543579
Oh Jesus what did they do to her?
>>316545259
The game doesn't try very hard to hide it either.
>>316545259

>>316548389
I kind of don't like Katsumi's style compared to the others. It being TOO detailed might be why I don't like his portraits, but the Evo ones also aren't great. The originals will always be best in my opinion.
>>316545535
I like it. Smug face is pretty much the only one that really did get worse.
>Now commencing annihilation/ extermination of enemy forces
Why did Xseed/ CF localized her from Angel of Annihilation/ Extermination to Angel of Slaughter? Slaughter doesn't even carry the same connotion as the other two words
>>316543395
The best chest is the one that begs help be sent to the localization team.
>>316549054
I orefer slaughter anyways. It's just better.
>>316549054
I think slaughter sounds better.
>>316549136
But she doesn't slaughter people, the way she kills is filled with childlike innocence like a kid squishing ants with their feet or burning them under the sun with magnifying glass
What other games are Estelle and Joshua in aside from FC&SC?
>>316549307
Isn't there some meaning behind Sword Emperor too (like some kind of martial arts thing)? Bladelord sounds so much more mundane.
>>316549307
>she doesn't slaughter people
Uhh have you not seen her s-craft or read her lines? Renne is an evil little girl at times who absolutely would slaughter you.
>>316549558
nah man, she doesn't slaughter you brutishly, she exterminates or annihilates you like a graceful Angel of Death
>>316549693
We'll have to agree to disagree. Slaughter is fine to me.
>AnalAce
They couldn't have picked a worse name for her.
I need to remember not to come into these threads until I finish SC. From small tids and bits I'll get my ass spoiled on the entire game.

>>316548560
It looks good on the characters he designed. He fucked up Joshua and Estelle and Renne don't look that great, but all the characters from Zero/Ao look fine.
I don't know why they didn't just use the guy who did the art for Ys vs. Sora no Kiseki. Everyone looks fine in that one and he can actually do expressions and details well.

Holy fuck, getting him back wasn't nearly as satisfying as I thought it would be. At least Kloe has a lesbian knight to keep her warm.
And that fucking hint from Olivier right before he ran off. I just....no. You better not YOU BETTER NOT, YOU DONALD-TRUMP LOOKING CUNT.
>>316552182
It's apparently a joint effort by 3 difference companies, one of which is Chara-Ani, who are responsible for CS having no JP voices.
Just licensing would be a clusterfuck.
Is the "Gagharv Trilogy" worth playing?

>reunion scene not satisfying
So what's wrong with you then? I loved that scene. It's right up there with the end after beating the last boss imo.
>>316552574
I would say no. It's nothing like Trails, sadly.
>>316552352
Are you shitting on the reunion scene just because some irrelevant kek that never stood a chance in the first place got what she knew she was going to get from the start?
>>316552584
It's completely ruined by a really likable character getting her heart crushed into a million tiny pieces.
Love triangles are my least favorite plot device. It kills like half of all sci fi for me.
>>316552352
>tfw Joshua shows up out of the blue like that
I seriously didn't see it coming. Then I saw those twin swords flash by and was like whaaaaaaaat.
>>316552846
It's not really a love triangle when Joshua has absolutely 0 interest in her whatsoever and she fully understands that.
>>316552846
Meh, I never felt bad for Josette because to me it honestly felt like they were trying to force the whole 'josette like joshua' thing. Wasn't convincing.
>>316552182
Rather have the next 3 games instead of the Evos, considering how well these are selling they could never afford the voice actors or licensing.
>>316552984
She doesn't really love him, it's just a crush.
>>316552956
wat
Boy totally lead the bitch on before he snuck onto that red ship. He WAS considering going with them, because he figured it'd never actually work between him and Estelle.
Kloe would've been a better rival for Estelle, but it would completely go against her character for her to openly compete with estelle over joshua.
>>316552984
>>316553064
This. I thought the whole point was to show us a girl who's basically "omg Joshua you're so mysterious and dark" to contrast with Estelle's development.
>>316552162
not much of a system anymore. Racking up sepith count to generate spells is too hard for casuals. So now spells are simply tied to quartz.
>b-but it's too OP in the old games where casters have access to old spells! It's good to dumb down in the name of balancing!
And you still have 200 CP sbreak spam making Sen 1&2 the easiest Kiseki game even easier than FC.
Also Shining Pom completely removed from game and sold as Shining Pom bait microtransaction DLC
>>316553268
She's a princess too. She's gotta save the vagoo as an emergency bargaining tool.
>>316553293
So it's like materia now?
>>316553269
Basically. Estelle is the one Joshua is meant to be with and the only one who can fix him. Josette is just infatuated with him. That's why the song he plays is "The Whereabouts of Light"/"Where the Stars (Estelle = star) Are" and not "The Whereabouts of Some Irrelevant Pirate Girl"
>>316553431
>mfw Olivier was Kloe's arranged suitor
If their ages weren't so far apart I'd be all for it
>>316553714
Age doesn't matter to Olivier. He even hits on Renne and Tita.
>>316553714
It's not a big deal.
>>316553705
>"The Whereabouts of Some Irrelevant Pirate Girl"
poor Josette got used up and tossed out like some cheap kondom
I really wanted to enjoy the first game but after going to a second town and still being given errands to do I just lost interest.
>>316553956
You're just not worthy then. If you can't handle FC then you don't deserve to enjoy SC.
>>316553956
Then don't do sidequests
>>316553956
Bose?
You don't have to do all the bracer quests. Act like you're in the game and pick the ones that sound interesting. IMO the average quality of sidequests in Trails is really good for a JRPG.
Estelle is my Sunshine.
>>316554263
She is Best Girl for sure.

>>316554263
Estelle's daughteris my sunshine.
>>316553956
Part of the appeal of the game is that the characters are suppose to be a tad more "grounded" in their reality. Joshua and Estelle start out as grunts, then go through a fuckton of shit and grow close to each other through it. They kinda bust out in 2nd chapter on account of their inherent traits, Joshua being a super weapon and Estelle being the daughter of the divine blade.
It's a niche game, but it's something different, which is always nice to play. I have more patience for it than something that's genuinely boring and generic like, say, Xenoblade.
>>316538824
>>316539179
Huh... woulda sworn ahoge was "fucked senseless face."
>>316554452
Yep not worthy. You're missing out on amazing games because you're too ADD to do your job as a bracer.
>>316554734
No, Ahoge is the little hair thing that sticks up, like on Saber from Fate. You're thinking of Ahegao.
>>316554734
That's ahegao.
>>316554467
>>316554804
>>316554823
Ah, right. I can see why I got them confused.
Estelle doesn't look right with a sword.
>>316554823
did someone say ahegao
>>316554942
Who the fuck drew her with a sword and why
>>316554942
that's because her dad purposely trained her wrong, as a joke. Even if he's the Divine Blade and is even stronger with a katana
>>316554832
>>316554942
This might be the sexiest pic of Estelle.
>>316554994
That's not ahegao. Ahegao has the tongue hanging out and eyes open.
>>316555169
>joshua isn't the one wearing the dress
Unacceptable.
>>316555258
very well then
>>316554662
Which is fine in concept, but with 12 hours into the game and still feeling bored while playing it I have no desire to play it at all.
>>316555402
>those eyebrows
>>316555187
Eh I'd say its this one.
>dat smile
>dat pose
>dat figure
>>316555549
What helped me get through it is just do a little at a time instead of marathoning the game. Like, do each chapter/town in two or so gaming sessions. Doing that made it seem less of a chore for me.
Smug Estelle is best Estelle.
>>316555618
Shikei does pretty good eyebrows.
>>316555258
Like this?
>>316555721
Yea I might go back to it when I'm in a JRPG mood and just play from where I left off (which I normally wouldn't do) and it'll probably feel paced like a normal game.
>>316555549
I feel like you're missing the point if you're getting so bored that you can't continue. TiTS probably just isn't for you. People who like TiTS usually say the dialogue is a strength of the game, and there's plenty of that to entertain you even in bracer jobs. If you can't enjoy it then it's just not a game for you.
>>316555981
That's pretty much what I did. Got to like Bose or wherever the second town was, took a month or so break, next town, a few months, etc. It picks up when you can really start playing around with the orbment system.
>>316555721
>>316555981
You have to be the right mood to enjoy these games. I honestly get kinda bored after a few hours but taking a break makes me miss all the characters again.
SC as described by a pixiv artist.
>>316556031
I enjoyed the dialogue. I just like to play an interesting game in between that.
>>316555680
that's not even the sexiest Estelle
>>316553956
Even innocuous errand-type sidequests can end up having something great in them though.
>>316556283
You make a compelling argument anon, I'll give you that.

I just got my resolution to the psuedo-sibling almost-incest thing and it was pretty satisfying for one of my only expectations out of SC. If only we also weren't caught up in all this apocalypse business.
>>316538736
That can't be right, Estelle is actually an enjoyable character.
>>316556283
This one's better.
And then everyone started using Katanas.

>>316557026

>>316556675
I was tearing up before the opening video. That feeling of arriving back in Rolent after years of waiting mixed with the raw power in the way they handled Estelle's grief was unreal.

Too bad all those Crossbell doujins and Sora doujins did not get scanned. Even Sen only had a relatively few doujins scanned.
Too bad, so sad.
>>316557281
Dafuq are those things
>>316557281
He's not a bad MC. He's not in the same league as Estelle but as far as "typical" dense hot-blooded shounen type MCs go he's pretty good.
>>316557364
Orbal tonfas?
>>316557364
Tonfa with swords in them
>>316556986
They are just fishing rods bro. But yeah the artist made them look like Katanas. Lloyd's stance doesn't help either.
>>316557281
Why is this design allowed?
>>316557482
Because you can't make a girl with a body as sexy as Rixia's and not show it off.

It's not really that bad.
It's not really that good, either. It's exactly what you'd expect from a Kiseki game that focuses on appealing to the casual Persona audience.

Isn't that just a nendoroid petite?
>>316558376
I dunno, the angle makes it hard to tell, but it looks too big and it's not in the same pose as the petit Rennedoroid.
>>316558265
It'll be fine. I'm loving the soundtrack and can't wait for the game
When the fuck are they gonna announce a release date. It's already mid November and they can't just release it in 6 days like they did SC.
>>316558323
Do they fight each other because of the civil war? So it's Crossbell and Erebonia?

No that's an actual official nendroid but a petite one which are of somewhat lower quality, enough to be noticeable.

Rean is a filthy Erebonian invader and Lloyd is trying to protect his homeland so they fight. Lloyd shreks him then Rean whips out his giant robot and Lloyd runs away even though that makes no sense after he fought the fucking Demiurge before that and won.

>civil war
My bad wrong word

I caught every single fish. I just never saw the point of fishing period.
Pls no sen spoilers god damnit
>>316558265
it's pretty bad, but I'm too lazy to type everything wrong with it again.
>>316558593
It's shit anyway
Why do people feel a need to post cold steel spoilers here every day
You coukd at least use tags
>>316558563
>Shreks him
I wish. It was clearly a stalemate.
>>316558593
not much to spoil about since Sen 1 &2 covered as much story as FC did in 1 game
Two questions
Is there a walkthrough for the quests in SC yet? I need it so it can contain my autism for not missing a lot
Second, is there a mod yet for SC evo music?
>>316558702
Rean was about to go nothing personal on Lloyd but decided to summon Valimar
>>316558712
Nigga people have been spoiling shit in these threads every day
>>316558712
I think it was supposed to be one game to begin with but then Falcom also wanted to put it onto the vita so they had to split it up into two. At least the next Erebonian arc game won't have much school no matter who the protag is.

>never saw the point
>fish for a few minutes
>get hundreds of Sepith, ingredients, and powerful accessories

also no replacer for SC Evo music yet since the game and sound track is not even out in moonland yet.
