Are they good?
I havent played them, but ive been here long enough to tell you that /v/s opinion will be "old good. New/popular bad"
>>693352054The best games of all time desu
>>693352054Yeah they're fun and there being this overarching plot happening over so many games is a fun experience.
>>693352054Very mid games.Play Rance instead if you want a long JRPG series with an overarching plot.
>>693352413>Play Rance instead if you want a long JRPG series with an overarching plot.Shill me Rance instead of trails anon, trails have pic related
>>693352502Rance has actual porn, not just safe horny
>>693352502Rance is not even a JRPG in all of its iterations desu, but no one has played the games so they just shitpost with it
Zero and Azure are goodCold Steel 1-2 are greatCold Steel 3-4 are okEverything else is pure garbage
Why did Rean become white in CS4?
>>693352054Played through the Sky trilogy (loved it), Crossbell duology (loved it), and the first CS game (it's shit). Dropped at CS2, it was just terrible. Never went back to the series after that.
>>693352054yes. they get a bit inconsistent starting with cold steel (mainly being too long and more clumsily paced) but still very good and worth trying.>>693353259he dyes his hair to look more like his boyfriend crow
>>693353198>Cold Steel 1-2 are great
>>693352054Any studio that shits out games that fast is not putting any effort into them.I've played a couple of them - they are basically compilations of ideas stolen from other, better JRPG's, and topped off with atrocious trope riddled shounen-tier writing.The localizers then ad 150 times more text which bogs the games down immensely..... Some ok music but nowhere near as good as Falcoms 80s/90s stuff.
>>693355718>atrocious trope riddled shounen-tier writing.*I should ad. Apparently this is a selling point. because the fans regularly call it """cringe kino""". As if they enjoy garbage on purpose or something.
Kiseki is the Ultimate JP-KINO
>>693352054I stopped at Azure and I've been saying myself to play Rean's game for almost 2 years already.
>>693355759i bet you can't even enjoy tokusatsu because it's "cheesy" you joyless faggot
I love Sky 1 and 2 but I never really went past em because I'd rather be sure there's actually an ending waiting for me before commiting to more. Sky 2 gave me a perfectly satisfying ending so I don't really NEED more. Once the series is finished, I'll go back and play more of it.
My friend loves them because of all the world building and politics stuff. I love JRPGs as well but I'm not gonna touch a series where every game is 80+ hours and they get 20 hours longer each title
>>693356208Sky 3 should also be "Safe" for your purposes as it is more of a Side Story rather than something that you would expect to Continue.Excellent game if you ever feel the urge to Return before the Series is Concluded.
>>693352054I got 1 and 2 in a bundle like 10 years agoAccording to Steam I played the first one for 19 hours then dropped itNever even installed the second
>>693356282>Safe>Side Story >Continue>Return >Series >ConcludedWhat's this particular brand of brain damage called?
>>693356372Extreme JP-KINO Contagion(Be Careful)
>>693356282while it is a side story it also introduces much of the setup for the next 6 games so it's not exactly much of a conclusion for the series or several of the main characters.
>>693356630You might be Correct, it has been a While since I replayed Sky.
