That was a bit of a disappointing fight, they put all those restrictions on you and you literally don't need to do anything but buff and spam Arc Slash. I'm in Chapter 3 now and there hasn't been a single challenging fight at all so far.

You don't really see any numbers for them. It's pretty invisible, you can raise these number by talking to them on certain days but there's never a number under the map that tells you when. An example would be like going to the graveyard during a rainy day and seeing sully talking to the grave keeper and learning about their past and how they manage to meet each other.

>>
>>324346484
Not him but I don't see how you can finish the first game but not the second. By chapter4 you haven't even gotten Joshua back yet. There's still so much mystery to unravel and story to enjoy.

I'm assuming you like stories in RPGs, right? Don't see how you could get where you are if you don't. You should be in tje middle of a marathon session like I was when I got SC because I wanted to see more of the story.

Are you stuck on a boss or something? I just don't get it.

Anyone who can into 日本語:

How are the older games? I haven't played any of these games yet. I figure I should try the Trails series eventually, but I'm autistic or something and usually start a franchise from the beginning even if they have no story connection (I did that with Dragon Quest last year and I'm glad I did, it was a lot of fun). Though I'm willing to skip some games if need be. So how are the older games in the series? I've heard the remakes generally suck so I'll just play the original PC versions if I play them at all. Also, I've heard that the Steam/GoG version of Trails in the Sky is some remaster, though there's no Japanese version. Does it add much aside from somewhat nicer visuals? If not, then I'll probably just play the old version since I know I can buy a Japanese version. If it adds some significant things then I'll consider playing it if I can somehow mod Japanese text in.

I think the Sora FC and SC remakes are fine but the ost and art is different. I like the evo version more mostly because of 5x speed for combat.

Zero and Ao evo are good aside from ost changes in zero evo but the voice acting actually improve a lot of scenes so you should get the evo version if you can.

A major subplot of Zero is based on characters from the Sora games.
>>
>>324350446

I wasn't talking about the Evo versions, but the Steam version which I've heard is a little different from the originals. I'd consider the Evo versions (5x battle speed sounds fantastic), but no Vita.
>>
>>324350641
Sora is much better than Sen so I don't see why you're having that issue.

You absolutely do need to play The 3rd before Zero or Sen II so better get to it.

If battle speed is that important to you just use Cheat Engine to speed the PC games up.

It's just a nice perk, not a make or break deal. Like I said, I don't have a Vita anyway, and the Evo versions are Vita only I believe.

at least it can motivate him to play and start the series somewhere. he can just go back later before playing Sen II, like the newcomers of Sen when it was released in Japan. at least he could be in the mood to play Sora after playing Sen.

That's what happened to me a few chapters in. Honestly, Trails FC is the best experience I've had with video games in the last ten years for whatever reason and I don't want to wait again.
>>
>>324352063
I'm more interested in those two then sora to be honest. I tried to play a bit of FC evo and I just can't really get into it but I really dug into zero but then when I asked about plot connections in the /jrpgg/ every berated me and made me feel bad for not finishing sora first.

It's not that it's slow or i don't like it, I just like zero's characters a lot better.
>>
>>324352119
No, that's a subplot about Renne.
>>
>>324352329
FC is all buildup. It establishes the setting and all the characters you'll be using in SC, which is the payoff.

I will say one thing: if you finish FC, there's no way you won't want to play SC.
>>
>>324352426
A subplot that hijacks the main plot of Zero in Chapter 3
>>
>>324352329
You're really ruining one of the best subplots in the game by playing Zero first. You're also missing out on a lot of vital information about Zero's plot by skipping The 3rd.
>>
>>324352426
Semantics. It's as much as about Estelle and Joshua as much as it is Renne's.
>>
>>324352041
it worked in Japan when Sen got first released. and it's only the worst not because it's bad but because the others are just better. it's also the worst because they tried appealing to newcomers instead of going back to their usual strengths.
>>
>>324352580
That's not what I mean, I mean that it's not a continuation of SC's story, which is about Estelle and Joshua
>>
I've been swamped with other things and finally have a chance to start up cold steel. Do I need a guide to 100% similar to Sora or is it much more lax this time around?
>>
>>324343747

Fucking this, by the time SC finally came out I'd forgotten everything that happened in the first game except that it's too long for me to want to replay it.
>>
I just can't into a turn-based RPG anymore.
The next and probably last one I'll end up playing is Digimon: Cyber Sleuth of whatever
>>
>>324355029

It's pretty hideous with the missables if you're going for 100%
>>
>>324355029
nope. it's even worse. not only do you have the book set that allows you to upgrade to ultimate weapon, it also has missable accessory sets that you have to buy at specific points or you lose another ultimate weapon upgrade. fishing and recipes give important rewards and they're mostly missable. talking to NPC's at school to fill the notes also give rewards. and there are hidden quests that require you to go to places you've been to but not required by the plot at the moment they can be triggered.

Radiant Historia has literally no missable. but it's because you can time travel to any point in the story. so if you missed something from a place you currently don't have access to, just return to a point in time where you have access to said place.

aw fuck, and I thought I was doing a good job with ferreting books and quests out so far.
>>
>>324356505

Something else you should keep in mind while playing is there's a trophy you can unlock for each character toward the end of the game (the dance event), but it requires a certain amount of link exp + another requirement for it to become available to you. For a first playthrough you probably want to focus your efforts on raising the link on maybe 3-4 characters, then carry your links over to NG+ and get the rest there.

As for the other requirements, the guide >>324356505 here mentions when you come upon them.
>>
>>324344151
Nope. ch2 is also dull, game hits it's stride at 3.
>>
>>324356976
No

You can make games with huge exploration while keeping missable to a minimum. This is something that should be planned out by the dev. You should not get punished just because you didn't go to specific place at specific time to get everything, considering a lot of the players that play rpgs are completionist
>>
>>324357085
yep. you can only buy Sitting Mishy in Celdic on Chapter 1 for example. i don't now if Micht has it in one of his curios on a later chapter though
>>
>>324357384
well, due to Trails having OCD with NPC's and their dialogue, Falcom is punishing you for not talking to everyone that you can talk to after a major event. they only reward those that take the time to read all/most of the script that Falcom wrote or (Xseed translated) unless you have a guide.
