In this thread: Reading comprehension failure!
In more awesome news this is absolutely fantastic. Both CSII and 3rd are coming our way SOON!

Zero & Ao when?
Do you know if it's possible to run SC on Mac? When I looked on steam SC looked to only be compatible with Windows.
2017 is still a ways away though. Maybe I'll have switched to PC by then.
Just download a completed PC save before you start 3rd.

Even after SC broke the XSEED Second Game Curse I kind of assumed this one wasn't happening (and could hardly blame them if it didn't.) Super psyched about this.
The TITS SC sale is the cheapest it's been yet, BTW, so tell all your friends to jump in.

I'm just going to download a PC save of SC. There'll be a way even if we have to create and place the folders in the right place ourselves.
OK just CTRL+F "Third" and was confused but they have it listed as that and 3rd :x

Especially when the game will run on any potato PC anyway.
Virtual machines, bootcamp... attempt WINE perhaps?
Though bootcamp is probably the most user-friendly way. (I don't own a Mac so my advice may not be trustworthy)
Good outlook for the series and happy for XSeed.
If you willing to go that far, bootcamp or vm is an alternative you know. Even with the overhead there not much loss in performance with these older game engine.

This. So much this.
It's still a PSP game in terms of development and approval. You're asking them to try and get that done for a game being released in 2017, but it's not necessarily feasible.

XSEED admitted they had no expectations for the PSP version and released it entirely as a gesture of goodwill to the fans that waited years to resolve FC's cliffhanger.

Yeah, but when was that game announced for the PSP in the west?
That was just XSEED owning up to their promises. You had no reason to expect TC, specially with the PSP phasing out for good.

Not sure if, but as others said there should be ways around it that'll make it work, especially since the specs requirements are so low

The year doesn't make "development and approval" any harder than SC five months ago. You're being arbitrary.
Because SC was a promise to those who buy FC. I think that if XSEED would have broken that promise maybe SC would have come sooner on PC, because apparently it was a hell of development bring the PSP version.

Good call
Man being on PC is going to make this more challenging.... Ive been playing all these games portable at this point
I guess we play differently, I can't imagine playing Trails in such short bursts. I almost never compete an RPG on handheld.
I would say I could understand PSP fans being dissapointed but I genuinely can't, who honestly expects a sequel to an poorly performing, difficult to localise lengthy RPG to come out on a platform that was pretty much already dead 5 years ago. To get this game at all is pretty mind blowing for me.
But it's not coming out today, it's coming out in a year or more from now. And they said multiple times SC would be their last PSP game.

Any people who have already played the Japanese version have an opinion on how it is in comparison to the rest of the series out of curiosity?

3rd being PC-only was a given.
The mere fact it is coming, is but a miracle.

Not to mention we wouldn't be getting the game at all if it weren't for the PC sales of FC and SC.
I think these RPGs are perfect in short bursts, as long as you're consistent. Do a side quest or two tonight. Grind a dungeon for EXP tomorrow night and get to a boss. Kill the boss and watch the scenes after the next night. It's all very relaxing and easy to do.
I'm not saying I expected it on PSP; I didn't expect it at all. But it IS disappointing that they're not releasing it on PSP. Not saying they should, I don't know the financials. But I personally am sad.
Nah, I tried to get Ys Ark of Napishtim to run on Mac with bootcamp but failed. I think I'll just get myself a Surface Pro. I've been meaning to get one for quite some time and this announcement kinda seals it.

It's never been a secret that SC was going to be XSEED's last PSP game. The fact that we're getting 3rd at all is a minor miracle in and of itself, and it's really depressing to see people flip their shit over it not coming to PSP.
SC was a show of good will toward folks who bought FC on PSP and were looking to finish the duology.

I think it's fine to be disappointed as someone who'd rather play it on my Vita as well. But XSEED already said a while ago that they wouldn't be working on PSP games anymore a while ago so being disappointed about this decision now seems a little odd. Were you just holding out hope that they would still bring the PSP version over, or did you miss the statement where they said that.
I don't have a PC, nor do I have the time to play a 50hr+ RPG at home when I have a young family to look after. Portables/mobile pretty much are gaming to me.
Still, much as it means I won't be able to play 3rd, I understand their reasons entirely. Knowing that Cold Steel 2, and possibly 3, are up ahead takes the sting out in my case.
Not by choice in all cases.
Is it really that hard to understand that not everyone has or wants a PC? The next time a game is 3DS only, I'll have to remember that saying 'it'll run on any potato portable!' is guaranteed to calm the ire of our home console brothers

Sweet. I am glad that this is coming. It will go well with the first two I already have on PC.
That's exactly how I play mine as well and would love it on psp but at this point I'm just happy to get this game at all, I'll be there day one. Might be time to invest in an old nvidia shield for the portable play lol
It's babyish, and I say this as someone who has played all the Trails games so far on Vita and way prefers to play JRPGs on portable systems. Expecting anyone to release a PSP game in 2017 is asinine.
It's more of a dungeon crawler than the other titles. However, there are some really cool overarching narrative concepts that were introduced in this game and expanded on in Trails of Zero, Trails of Azure, and Trails of Cold Steel 1 & 2. It also has multiple prominent characters who you'll recognize as being a big part of Cold Steel.
Some people love it as their favorite, some don't like it as much as other entries. What I do know, however, is that it has the least amount of text in the franchise, and has about a third (no pun intended) of the text that Trails SC had. It's not gargantuan like SC.

From Tom, via XSEED forums:
To address some common questions thus far:
So, yeah... to all y'all who said there was no way in hell 3rd would ever see the light of localization, all I can say is, EAT IT.
- PC version only. Sorry, but we couldn't swing the PSP, PS3, or Vita versions of the game (and all for completely different reasons, to boot -- none of which I'm really at liberty to talk about in any great detail, so you'll just have to trust that we tried our best!).
- Localization duties are not being handled by Carpe Fulgur as with SC, but by more or less the same team responsible for the Trails of Cold Steel games. So if you liked the way Cold Steel turned out, you've got nothing at all to worry about with 3rd!
- Nothing is being edited out or removed. In fact, as others have said, I believe Sara will even be attempting to add the previously PSP-exclusive elements to the PC release -- though of course, nothing can be guaranteed there, especially at this early stage. It's just sort of an idea/goal at this point.
Heheheheh...
-Tom
I really wasn't expecting this to ever get localized. I'm glad the tease and turn around on localization reveal was this quick.
It might be disappointing for some people that only the PC version is getting brought but really, it's not unexpected and I feel we should just rejoice that XSEED is bringing it over at all.
Thanks XSEED, you keep exceeding my expectations.

Yeah and Xseed has went into exhaustive details about how tricky it would be to port the Vita versions

Hell even getting a PSP game in 2016 is a miracle in itself.
I am curious as to how the PSP version of SC did for XSeed. Did they ever reveal anything about that?

If I'm not mistaken this game is much different than the first two, right?
