Cold Steel cliffhanger is even worse.
And there's 3 Cold Steel games.
3rd is currently in the works and not even out in Japan yet, 2nd was confirmed for localization already.
Anyhow we can safely bet all 3 cold steels will be localized.
I'm more worried about Sky 3rd, Zero and Azure.

>>318785848
I wouldn't say CSII is much better. Although that one doesn't end with the cliffhanger, you won't have any understanding how the story will turn out in the next game.

>>318785967
The ones on Steam are the first two games in the series. This is the 6th.
>>
>>318785967
The two on Steam were part of the story arc that takes place in Liberl.

Cold Steel begins the story arc that takes place in Erebonia.

Zero and Ao are the story arc that take place in Crossbell.
>>
>>318786486
>>318786567
So whats left for the ones on steam, story arc wise?

Is the new PS3 one the first in a arc?
>>
name cracks me up lol
>>
>>318786567
What about 3rd? I know that Kevin is the main character, but does it still take place in Liberl, or do they move elsewhere? And how much crossover do we see with characters from the other games with this one? Do we run into them at all?
>>
>>318786770
If 3rd, Zero and Ao come out, then they will be on Steam.

The new PS3/PSVita one is the first in the Erebonia arc, yeah.

>>318786975
Don't know. Depends on whether or not Xseed decides to localize the 3rd.
>>
>>318786975
>does it still take place in Liberl, or do they move elsewhere?
Its setting is kind of a spoiler itself but you may describe it as an other dimension of some sort.

>And how much crossover do we see with characters from the other games with this one? Do we run into them at all?
the 3rd has tons of additional info that will be relevant in the future arcs (including post-CS) and of course there're some important characters appearing. Not the main cast of the future games though.
>>
I can't wait to pirate this and play it undubbed in my CFW PS3.

I wanted to get this on my vita but I've heard it has problems like framerate issues. That true?

Haven't played FC for a while, what point of the game are you referring to?

I think he's talking about the point where you find out that the Intelligence Division is behind all the shit you've been dealing with all game? End of the 3rd chapter is when Russel gets kidnapped and they arrest all the Royal Guardsmen right?

>>
>>318789350
Oh, that. Well, that's a big reveal alright, but I don't think it's the right parallel. There just wasn't an infodump as big as Sen's last hour in Kiseki. And the last chapter of FC certainly isn't a Civil War.
>>

>>318790928
>entire plot revolves around political parties and characters introduced in FC and SC
>lol only fanboys will say otherwise
Fanboys will tell you you need to play FC and SC to understand Sen because they've actually played the games and know what they're talking about. You'll also get plot points of SC spoiled if you play Sen first, and it's the much better game.
>>
What the fuck was the point behind delaying it one more fucking week? Originally it was supposed to be out 11/17 or something and then 12/15, now 12/22? What the FUCK.
>>
>>318791325
There was literally never a release date until now
>>
>>318791309
Falcom disagrees with your statement.
>>
>>318791414
Where did Amazon get its release dates from then?
>>
>>318791705
They were placeholder dates. A date was needed to get the listing up, so they put in a date that they hoped to make. They weren't official release dates tho.
>>
>>318791596
Falcom needs to sell shit. Imagine someone from the company to tell "Don't buy it until you've cleared the 5 games released previously".
>>
>>318791596
Nah, they were talking about Zero and Ao. It's arguable that you don't need those to understand the games, Not so much for FC and SC.

>>318793732
It's not that simple/linear. The games have different arcs based on the country they take place in.

Trails in the Sky is the Liberl arc.
Zero/Ao are the Crossbell arc.
Cold Steel is the Erebonia arc.

So, technically, Cold Steel is #6, but for all intents and purposes it is actually the first game in the Erebonia story arc.

>>
>>318795161
Really?
>>
>>318795127
Absolutely, and it ends in one of the weirdest ones in the series, not nearly as ball bustingly frustrating as TiTS FC did.

>>318795242
Funny how several companies' employees have come out and bitched about negotiations they've had with Chara Ani for licensing of their vocal talent internationally, Chara Ani seems like a bitch to deal with unless your willing to throw some money around.

Still surprised about the new Darius getting an english release with it seemingly being entirely in tact with no cut music or voice clips
>>
>>318795242
Remember that XSEED isn't Sony Asia
>>
>>318794156
And also replace any non plot related scenes with FC's school arc except replace the play with idol concerts and school dances.
>>
>>318795875
Regardless of whether or not they're a pain in the ass to work with, which I am sure they are, it's clearly possible to license their VAs outside of Japan. Xseed don't want to deal with it or don't want to pay them. That's all there is to it.
>>
>>318795242
Doesn't Sony bring the games to asia?
>>
>>318796113
It's possible if you're fucking Sony. It's not otherwise.
>>
>>318796132
Yeah, and since Sony aren't Chara Ani, they had to license the VAs too.
>>
>>318796132
Yes, it was Sony.
>>
>>318796220
Degica is Sony?
>>
>>318796227
>Chara-Ani is willing to make a deal with the manufacturer of their platform so clearly they are willing to negotiate with a small company!
Stop shilling a company that hates you you wapanese faggot.
>>
>>318796227
Yeah, and I'm sure Sony can strong arm some in negotiations, or can put out the money chara ani wants for international/out-of-japan licensing for their VAs, which is mainly where alot of their negotiations break down is that they are seemingly abusive with how much money they ask for their in-house VA licensing.
>>
>>318796113
it's possible by paying so much money the company goes under...sure.
>>
>>318795750
You can already get infinite turns in Sen with a 4-member party. Having more would trivialize the game even more.
>>
>>318796410

>>318796731

Degica is japanese. What part of Chara-Ani hates gaijins don't you understand?
>>
>>318796825
Quit being retarded you stupid fuck.

Darius has a grand deal less voice acting than the legend of heroes EVO games, so I'm sure the amount of VA you have to license out for when it's probably all of like 2 people compared to two or three dozen makes a big diffrence in the deal being drawn up.
Also the music for Darius is by a band Taito has good ties with, so while it's not actually known but it's probable that degica could have had taito help out with the deal since darius is their baby and could have gotten the soundtrack to remain for minimal costs.
>>

He's probably lurking this thread.

He's a leddit memer though.

Excellent, now I can get another paycheck right before release and buy both Dariusbust and Cold Steel without delay.

>>
>>318799237
Fun fact: The reason XSEED prioritized Sen no Kiseki's localization is because it isn't on PC, they want to release it before the PS3 completely dies in the west.
The PC games can wait because PC isn't going anywhere.
>>
>>318799460
>The games sell more over their than here.
Well no fucking shit. They release them over there.
>>
>>318799237
There was no PC version in the chamber already like the rest of their games that have come out in the past 5 years. It's sony exclusive as of right now.

No PC version is also why we aren't getting the Crossbell arc No you fucking retards, the chinese version will not be usable for localization

Not him but XSEED doesn't own programmers, I think they have maybe one for inserting text but they certainly don't port games to new platforms.
If a version doesn't exist already then XSEED won't create it.
>>
>>318800607
PC versions exist. That's why it's bullshit.

There are certain people (or maybe just person) on this board who takes every opportunity to spread FUD on this board about the future of the series. The fact is that it's all BS. We don't know what's going to happen right now.
>>
>>318800445
But that's literally why. Xseed doesn't want to release a text heavy PSP exclusive in 2015 especially simce PSP fags nearly killed them in 2011. Zero has a working PC port that Falcom fixed up, but the PC port of AO won't work without significant work from a real programmer who is familiar with the code, and Falcom put their release of it on hold indefinitely due to Zero PC's poor sales.
>>
>>318800915
Nigga u dum
>>
>>318799575

Actually falcom told them to prioritize sen because the script is shorter and there are fewer kanji. Nice try though masterbaiter.
>>
>>318800445
Who the fuck is gonna do the PC port then anon? Falcom in-house? They've made it clear they aren't going to make new PC versions of anything because nothing on PC sells on the japanese market so it's worthless to them.
Xseed sure as shit can't program a PC port from the ground up.

>>318800462
If your pirating it, sure, if you are one of these chucklefucks waiting for a localization then never fucking ever, as it's already been stated that falcom has been stated they are unwilling to be Xseed's middleman in dealing with the chinese publisher that owns the rights to the PC port of the crossbell games.

>>318800915
>FUD

>>
>>318801012
>zero
>pc port
lmfao. It's the PSP version in a PSP emulator made by Chinese hacks. They only removed the DRM from the Chinese release.
>>
>>318801143
Also because it's on a current platform, the game was made with the intention of getting new players into the story without knowledge of prior games, and also it's one of their best selling games in recent years?

I mean, no, of course it's ONLY because it's script is easier to translate, that's the ONLY and MAIN reason as to why it's being localized now.
>>
>>318801174
Oh I wasn't saying that you could localize the game. I just said that the main technical issue with the game is the DRM making it run like shit. Licensing is a different problem entirely and is the main reason it's never getting localized.
>>
>>318801215
Xseed never once said anything like "There's no PC version for the crossbell games and that's why we will never localize them." Not once.
>>
>>318801320
And? What's your point
>>
>>318801437
Read their localization blogs you fucking moron.
>>
>>318801569
You think bug testing and injecting text into a PSP emulator is the same as a PC release?
>>
>>318801437
You could localize the first crossbell game, the second you would need a brand new PC port made for it, also PSP sells are a fucking afterthought and the series is mainly selling on PC in english territories, to just say FUCK IT, LET'S JUST RELEASE THE PSP VERSION BY ITSELF will lead to what happened originally with TiTS.

Also the reasons why they would try to push Sen out the door RIGHT NOW because now is the time to push that shit because they can't really localize it later when no one will have a PS3 hooked up by the time they are finished localizing the prior games, and you would be waiting for a remake on some other system to play Sen.
>>
>>318801741
There was more done than that. Try playing it
>>
>>318801418
No one will willing to code the Crossbell games and no one is able to deal with the licensing issues

This is a literal NEVER EVER if I ever saw one
>>
>>318801891
Why would I try playing a shitty PSP emulator when I own the Evo games?
>>
>>318802103
Because it's actually a port but your dumb uninformed ass believes otherwise because Chara-Ani pays you too.

Enjoy never ever playing as Cassius or Arianrhod.

>without knowledge of prior games

Sen shitposters need to fuck off already. Nothing makes sense in sen 2 if you didn't play ao. Sen never gives the player a crash course on ouroboros, grals ritter, artifacts, the master, phantom blaze, or anything of significance. Sen 1/2 literally take place during ao and you even see the repercussions on the other side of the trade conference, aion units, erebonian occupation, red constellation/zephyr conflict, duvali's entire character, mcburn's relationship to the master via leonhardt and his sword anguval's relationship to kernviter, etc. For fucks sake you even play as lloyd for a small part of the game. If you played sen without playing prior games, you wouldn't understand anything.

I really wish you idiot would stop criticizing sen for not being on pc. We get it, you're mad.

I questioned them about this and didn't get much of a response. At the least they could create a glossary that explains past events, but nope, they won't even do that. I should clarify a bit. You will understand the basics of the erebonian part of the story perfectly without playing prior games. Any time there's referential content or returning characters, a new player would be completely left in the dark without playing all titles leading up to this point. For instance, gilias is hardly characterized despite being revealed as rean's father. If you didn't play sc or the 3rd, you wouldn't know much else about him, lecter, or any other members of iron breed.

>>318803069

Falcom never said that and their audience remains the same size as its always been. In most ways, sen 1/2 is a rehash of sora fc/sc. People who can't scratch the surface think its an anime uguu fanservice game even though falcom has always pandered. They're an otaku developer, nothing new here.

>>318803356

I would hardly consider the ys 7 translation canon for legend of heroes. アングバール as Angue Barl is like saying Kernviter is Kerun Baita. As an English speaker when I see Angue Barl, and I think Ang like Angus, Gue like Segue, and Barl like Barley, not Angeval which is the phonetic intent. The line was voiced even.

It's a reference to the dragon in Ys Seven who is named in roman characters in the japanese version IIRC, Angue-Barl is the intended name. Nips just can't pronounce romanized names and the katakana can't make the right sounds. That's why it's Valestine Castle and not Balestein

The really funny thing is that...

XSeeD said Falcom CAME TO THEM asking for them to localize Sen1 and Sen2.

And then XSeeD couldn't ask them to help licensing the voices for the game.

It's really bullshit if you ask me.

I would rather not put my poor reading comprehension on a wiki. I understand the most basic components of the series and nothing more. For instance, I could write an article about the dark history from the end of sen 2, but can I guarantee any accuracy? I know a lot of grammar, but I absolutely had to use a dictionary to read it. Plus I would have to replay all the games and record/screenshot significant portions that I don't want to mess up. A lot of effort for something that won't be incredibly necessary since xseed is localizing both sen games.

>>318804601

It's not that katakana is inadequate, but that some pronunciation is contextual, making romanization difficult. バ line is one such example, it means a b or v sound depending on context. Another example is how people romanize づ and ぢ. They are technically the same as ず and じ but aren't pronounced with the same z sound as zu and j sound as ji. There's more intonation on the z as you push your tongue down, more like a dzu or dji.

>>318805024

Don't get the wrong idea, I put them on a pedestal. They are my favorite developer and I've never hated a falcom game. I think they're perfect in every way because they know what I want and give it to me. I love their emotional stories and great soundtracks. But part of being a small developer is knowing your small audience and pandering obsessively. They know I want drama, world building, romance, a continuous story, etc.
>>
>>318805024
Except both of you are wrong. Anime style and stereotypes are one thing, high school setting is another level.

It's sad seeing such a great series having to be forced to pander to demented waifufags in order to sell. But that's how the market in Japan works today, can't be helped.
>>
>>318805270
And where did they say that they didn't want to continue the series?
>>
>>318804634
Pre-orders pretty much are them trying to denote how many copies they are going to ship to the store, on the off chance a release is small some stores may not order copies at all.
>>
>>318806031
When they skipped 3rd, Zero and Ao on a whim when they are completely plot relevant to Sen 2. Not to mention they said new comers will miss nothing in Sen. They don't care. They shouldn't, these games don't sell. They're merely localizing Sen 1 and 2 because Falcom threatened to cut off their contract with them.

Come on XSeed, don't do this to me now man.

I could always preorder it from Amazon US but the problem is I would have to pay for the customs and delivery aswell.

Can it be possible to hit customer service and ask them if it's possible to put it up for sale on the Mexican store? Since it's being shipped from the US warehouse, I don't think there would be a problem with it, I'm just doing it to get a better price and save myself the shipping cost.

RIght, but sometimes people misunderstand the context and mistake a v sound for a b sound or some such. I guess inadequate was the wrong word, rather it's just confusing when it comes to name pronounciations.

>>318805681
You don't necessarily have to write an article. Right now it just needs basic information like "so and so did this and that in this part of X game" and that sort of thing, but if you don't feel comfortable with that then that's fine.

Yeah but lloyd/elie is so pure. Plus there was more buildup from zero. Family is a somewhat important motif and I view lloyd, elie and kea in a similar fashion to estelle, joshua and renne. I would hate for lloyd to be with anyone else. Elie would be a great mother to kea and already is in function. SSS is one large family but elie feels the most right to me. Plus the story sort of lets elie win, it's obvious that her love for lloyd is different and they even make fun of her for it.

I don't know if I would consider theirs as romantic though. Noel and Rixia feel more like extras. At least tio was always there from the start. I took elie to the black auction instead so that's part of the reason why I continued choosing her.

This felt like a 'i'm so glad your alive i was so worried' hug, not a 'i need you in my life don't ever leave me again' hug. Different strokes though.
