On a whim, I decided to listen to Cold Steel's OST again and got wrecked by nostalgia

Really need to get ready for 3rd beat FC when it came out and 3 times since didn't get SC until last winter sale on Steam and have been stalling playing it I just finished. Chapter 1 tonight I really need to get on this!

i'm replaying FC now and i'm just about to meet
, i need to get accustomed to the new guy i mean name. This time i'm using a guide to get 100% (or very close to it) and i'm planning to replay SC too so i'll have to wait a little to play the 3rd, but i don't mind, fc and sc are great games, real good to revisit.
it really is great, i'm working on sheet music for Suburban Town of Trista, i hope i can deliver something good enough for people who want to play, here's some favorites of mine
Into the Abyss
Whereabouts of Feelings
Afterschool Hours
basically i like everything but i'll refrain from posting every song.

No. It's not more or less linear than its predecessors, but you can do the side stories and backtrack whenever you want (until the point of no return).

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
So soon
I need to get on that OT. I promise it'll be good

Was just listening to it again last week. Same feel.
Hah, I did the same thing yesterday. I actually only played them for the first time in February, but it's surprising how nostalgic it feels in such a short amount of time. Despite their shortcomings, I really do look back on CS1/2 with really fond memories.
The magic of Kiseki~
Six days to launch and there's only five characters in the picture.

Thank you based Sara (and Falcom for keeping their source files!)
I bet
Dorothy took the pic.
I bet
The Grandmaster
If we're talking about their storytelling in particular, then Ys II might be the start of Falcom's worldbuilding style before Brandish 2 and Legend of Heroes III developed that aspect. And it's tempting to use Dinosaur as an example, but I wonder how much of that game's story comes from director Kazunari Tomi (who left to start Studio Alex and direct Lunar) rather than other employees. Legend of Xanadu probably precedes Kiseki in one area a bit more than Gagharv, and that's lots of NPCs with details like day-night schedules and new dialogue per plot beat.

omgfloofy was banned? What happened to her?
Anyway my favourite track was Renne's : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ok9bzDzaS0
I hope there's something similar in 3rd.

Fallout from the XSEED localization thread in Gaming.
I'm guessing this is a spoiler that one of the characters has split personality.
Ooooh, so that's the reason for the name change.
Oh god that battle
*Turn 1*
Can't wait to use my skil- oh wait I got a gameover. Game, what!?
I'm so ready for this.
lol. I know, right?
I didn't know until much later that you can equip an accessory to nullify her opening gambit.
I had to scrape through the fight the pedestrian way eg. trying to trigger an S-Craft first. :-\

That differs per sector. At my previous job it was a day off once every five years.
Regardless, The 3rd will be played!

Def buying the 3rd on release but will most likely be burnt out on jrpg turn based games after I finish persona. So I will get around to playing the 3rd eventually.
Stop getting me too hyped >:c
XSEED never do preorder for their Steam games, it'll probably be available on the usual store update on the 3rd

Don't worry there was this quest in SC where you could get a product to not get drunk.As long as oliver is there only one to use it , he should be fine... unless sheera has a final form ...
if i remember the twitch stream properly , it seems that they are going to polish the release until the last minute... probably why we can't preload

These face expressions are just godly....
So for us is a good countdown, but for the team......
I can imagine the picture before the launch:

For what it's worth, they also said just about everything left would be quick fixes for minor stuff. Given they still seemed to have a pretty decent amount of things to do I kind of expect a few small lingering issues at release, mostly related to widescreen. Happened with both FC and SC.
They also said they wanted to put the game up for preorder (not sure about preload) but Valve wouldn't let them. Seems weird to me, but whatever.

As I understand it, it has to do with maximizing time on the top sellers list. Preorders are counted as sales at the time they're placed, which means the game doesn't benefit from a burst of sales helping it on the top sellers list at launch. Niche games heavily rely on that as one of the only times they'll get front page exposure, so taking preorders hurts their chances at getting more eyes on their game.
Yeah it seems Valve decide if you can have your game for preorder or not :/

it's a total shame , no doubt since i want to see the game in my library ASAP , even if i can't play it.
Oh well , make sense i guess... the more chances of this game selling the better it is.

Yeah, I think $50 is Valve's minimum for pre-orders. Never seen anything smaller-priced get a preorder option before.

I'll likely finish persona 5 tomorrow so I'll be perfectly ready for more Trails next week. Is there an 100% bracer/school points guide for this game? Or does third not have such nonsense?
It doesn't.
Third has PP, Priest Points. Whenever you have the opportunity to be a good priest of the Septian Church, you will gain PP. Sadly, there are no opportunities in the game to increase your PP.
I think this might be a flashback to his first meeting w/ Aina. Which happened off-screen in FC.
That sequence in SC is a direct result of that first disastrous night out.
Yeah, this is how I understand it as well. Valve recommends a launch discount instead of preorders for smaller games to maximize launch visibility.
Doubtful. I preordered FFXIII and Dragon's Dogma when they came out and one was a 15 game and the other 30. I'm fairly sure they are a few more as well.

So, is there some meta-commentary in that, or is it something that was supposed to be in the game but was incompletely cut when Falcom decided against it?
No, there just aren't side quests or an institution to hand out points like in the other games. The setting doesn't lend itself to it so it's not in there. (And it's terribly liberating)

Is it even a trails game without bull shit tiny window secrets to permanently fuck up your score?
