I LOVE ELAINE!!!
Welcome to Arkride Solutions-- a child soldier and a Kinkster.What has degraded more? The battle music or the size of the chapter areas?In Sky, the areas were massive and you were quite free to move around as you saw fit. There were entire optional dungeons (the towers, pretty hard), tons of things to discover etc...But now it's 3D! That's what's important! And there's a "!" to tell you where to go so you don't get lost on the tiny maps...I'm beginning to think you can fit the entire in-game size of Calvard into a single Liberlian province...
news this week
All is one, and one is all... All begins with one, and in the end, it returns to one.
>>487037834That's a pretty buff child soldier. Sky's areas had you move around too much too slowly.
>>487038040News?
>>487038040>>487038113Most likely yes, should be biweekly gap between batch of news.
News...
Van Cartrip
Melchior is a gay version of Campanella.
do you think Van vs McBurn will happen in Kai?
I love Agnès!!!!!!!
>>487038319Melchior is a piece of shit down to his core while Campanella is a dindu jester.
>>487038319>PenguinNISA foreshadowing?
>>487038584Anies will never love you
>>487037660Feena > Dana
>>487038630Cute lil butt
>>487038630Did they really need to do this? Couldn't they have just given Joshua a figure with exposed butt instead? The Falcom fandom wants to see boy butt and exposed chests!
>>487038279Laxia is a sexy cumdumpster for nobles and Dana is the bicycle of her people. Ricotta did nothing wrong.

>>487037064>MachiasKek>LauraLMAO>AlisaKEKEK>SaraHaha...>FieBetter character development than Emma so far but less relevantOnly Jusis and Millium and it’s debatableKa-Fai is useless according to some retards from fg/ because all 8B1L practitioners could just watch how to use a sword on Orbal Youtube.Kloe is irrelevant because Falcom could make Alicia younger and healthier so Liberl wouldn't need a new princess to take the throneI give up... I refuse to continue this pointless discussion.
>>487038584sorry Albert, Agnes only loves Ban-san...
>>487038968Tales sister?
>>487038968>>487039080Samefag. Why do Kisekibros seethe over other games so much?
>>487038767Isn't it said somewhere that the reason why Adol is not dating anyone is because he hadn't move on from Feena
>>487038998>KekThe noble versus commoner dynamic is the core of CS1/CS2, and his bonding event in CS4 had him show off development never gotten. Plus, his dad. >LMAOVictor is really cool.>KEKEKBoth her parents are very important people and she clashes with them throughout Cold Steel. >Haha..Big part of Northern Jaegar plot.>Better character development than Emma so far but less relevantXeno and Leo, and Rutger made her more relevant than Emma. >Ka-Fai is useless according to some retards from fg/ because all 8B1L practitioners could just watch how to use a sword on Orbal Youtube.No, because only Ka-Fai was able to teach 8B1L. >Kloe is irrelevantNo, because there's no-one in the plot that could have had her role. A young Alicia straight off of the ruling King/Queen could have done it, but that's inserting an entirely different character rather than just having someone else press the teleport button.
>>487039291Yes. Kondo has confirmed this many times. Feena has always been Adol's true love and that's why Adol has never shown any interest in any other girls throughout Ys. In all honesty, Adol might end up dying a virgin because his heart is with Feena.
>>487039675They're thrown around the concept of Adol having a son so not really. Some girl is going to end up pregnant with his child eventually.
>>487039675>tfw first love rules your whole romance life>have to pretty much throw romance in the trash for pure adventure because first love is gone
>>487039080>>487039219Samefag. They want to divide us.
>>487039837It's nothing more than one concept idea that got thrown around and nothing more. Probably got discarded because the staff once again recognized that the only girl Adol will ever truly love is Feena. So unless they plan to free Feena from the Black Pearl, become a normal human again and have Adol knock her up, Adol's dying a virgin.
>>487039292Man, I like Anies so much... I'm glad Falcom could finally create a good trails heroine. Can't wait to play Kai!
>>487039852You make it sound as if Adventure was a rebound or something. This is deluded cope. Adol has always been infatuated with Adventure even before he met Feena.
>>487039604>only Ka-Fai was able to teach 8B1LI know you are baiting him but...Who taught Richard and Cid?
>>487040045It'll happen eventually. Adol will fuck some lady while Feena watches over him in spirit.
>>487040204>could finally create a good trails heroineBut they already made the "cocksleeve that only exists to wank the protagonist" heroine with Altina.
>>487040304adol only became autistic about adventure after feena left. he was excited for adventure in the beginning yes but not to such autistic levels that he's famous for now.
>>487040501basedemma is useless and altina is even more useless
>>487039920Who is "they"?
>>487039852>>487040304Makes sense to me>Adol is a young man way into adventure>Falls in love for the first time>It ends badly>He goes full in on the adventure part because of it
>>487040386Cassius, who Ka-Fai taught. If you take Ka-Fai out of the picture then Cassius wouldn't be able to teach it to Richard and Cid.
>>487040402Adol's not fucking anyone but Feena. Feena is gone with the Black Pearl so that means Adol isn't fucking anyone. He's dying a virgin after rejecting tons of women who want his child.
>>487040570Celceta has it be something that was ingrained into him since he was young. With his adventurer dad and the stories of the outside world from passing travellers that captured his mind he never had a chance.
>>487040653Our enemies.
>>487040501fufu
>>487040663There’s no need to be Ka-Fai then
>>487040659>>487040570Adol was in love with Adventure before he met Feena. Feena was the girl he loved but even his love for her paled in comparison to his love for Adventure. This is the actual chart on the people Adol lovesAdventure >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Feena >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> the other girls
>>487040386I did.
>Our enemies.
>>487040752>Adol's not fucking anyone but Feena.Nice cope, but Falcom obviously doesn't agree with you. Some woman Adol met during his adventures, or perhaps a woman from his village will become his wife.
>>487040862>mindbroken by adventure at a young age thanks to his adventure obsessed father and other travelers make sense but the early days of adol's quests didn't make it seem like he was in love with adventure but just excited by it. it was only after feena left that he became hyperfocused on adventure and nothing more.
>>487040950No, the argument would be that there's no need to be Cassius then. But Cassius is a lot more plot relevant than teaching Richard how to use a sword so he also doesn't have the Emma problem like how Yun doesn't either.
>>487041427The 5th Anguis...
>>487041204Falcom has been laughing at you othergirlsfags for years. Feena has always been Adol's true love and that is why Adol will never look at another girl but her. Adol's not marrying anyone nor having kids or anything.
>>487041590Seems more like Adol's with Dana in that image but Feena's trying to reach out to him, haha...You ever read the official Ys VIII novelisation? It's pretty heavy on Dana stuff, and given it's the official novelisation it's pretty canon. But in the end Adol will never get with a blue haired heroine. They're all destined to leave him in the end.
>>487041918>deluded faggot reveals himself as a DanafagOf fucking course. The level of denial should have clued me in. Dana is gonna remain forgotten in history and Adol will still pine for Feena and not bang any other girl.
>>487041590What's adol looking at?
>>487041918nta but dana isn't that close to adol in that pic. she looks closer to dogi if anything. the fact they show feena reaching out for adol instead of holding the black pearl with reah shows how falcom wants you to know of adol and feena's love
>>487042112Nah, Adol's love is adventure. Dana isn't even the best VIII girl. Though Feena has a lot of catching up to do if she wants to be as popular as Dana.
>>487038319>Quatre, the party member who was 100% in the cult from his crazy parents around similar age to Renne, is not the same one or related at all to the Quatre she knew.what was the point?
>>487042207Adventure. Who else?
>>487039604>the core of CS1/CS2Part of the core: find the third way is the core of the entire arc Emma’s arc is exactly about her finding a new path that’s not just be a “coward” witch who lives in the shadows like her clan neither a witch Vita who abuses magic and dark magic and “the ends justify the means”>Both her parents are very important people Alisa’s problems are a direct result of Emma’s mother actions. Emma’s mother changed the future for her daughter. Roselia is a Holy Beast of Aidios and a folkloric character in Erebonia’s history. Vita is a fucking Anguis and also the Azure Diva, a popular opera singer. Emma is clashing with two legends.
>>487042497Red herring or they changed their mind about it at the last minute.
>>487042562Adventure...
The fact that Trails "third way'd" an issue like nobles vs commoners but then went full black and white on an issue like immigration that is one of the thorniest issues of the modern era is hilarious
>>487042497They just decided to not cash in on the lore like cowards
>>487042497haha... that's our Kiseki storytelling
>>487042442>pulls out muh poll If we used those, then you'd have to accept the one where Feena BTFO of Dana in the Ys heroines poll. Or the fact that Kondo said his favorite girl was Feena. You Danafags embarrass yourselves every time.
>>487042567>Emma’s arc is exactly about her finding a new path that’s not just be a “coward” witch who lives in the shadows like her clan neither a witch Vita who abuses magic and dark magic and “the ends justify the means”Her arc was just trying to get out of Vita's shadow. Don't insert your headcanon into it.>Alisa’s problems are a direct result of Emma’s mother actions.Doesn't matter. Emma's mother is an afterthought. Vita is a cuck, and Roselia was left out of everything that Dreichels and Lianne were doing.
>>487042804>ywn fuck Adventure in her cute butt
Ys > Kiseki
>>487042442Emma is Falcom's third most popular non-loli heroine even though she is not a main heroine or can be replaced by a “plot device” according to some brainless people.BASED
here's your news*shits pisses and cums everywhere*
Adventure is overrated
>>487043343Please stop, Anies
>>487043081>Emma's mother is an afterthought. Vita is a cuck, and Roselia was left out of everything that Dreichels and Lianne were doing.The witches really are all jokes. Only Celine managed to come out better in the end and she's just a familiar.
>>487042940Ultimately, the 40th anniversary poll is a stronger source.>Or the fact that Kondo said his favorite girl was FeenaHe said the same of Dana at one point as well. It's like how he switches between saying Rean and Estelle are his favorite Kiseki characters. He's opportunistic. Though he did say that Ys VIII was his favorite Falcom game ever at one point, so that trumps it all.
>>487043250why are yskeks constantly seething over kiseki lol
>>487042940https://noisypixel.net/new-ys-x-info-younger-adol-souls-like-inspirations/>Aside from Adol, Kondo’s favorite Ys character is Feenait's really true....
what the FUCK happened to Luke's channel?!?!?!
>>487043560>be around this bombshell>adol's penis is flaccid >hear about adventure >adol's penis is diamonds why is he like this
https://files.catbox.moe/r4tgsm.jpg
>>487043569>Though he did say that Ys VIII was his favorite Falcom gameYs 8 is definitely the best falcom game when it comes to all its aspects, there are other falcom games that excel in individual aspects, but ys 8 is like a perfect mix of everything falcom was about. Too bad we'll never get the game like ys 8 anymore from falcom.
>>487043569And said as of current, his favorite girl is Feena.>>487043662 That source is newer than the 40th poll.Keep coping though Danafag. Feena will always be the staff favorite over Dana and will remain Adol's true love which will give her favoritism over Dana.
>>487039876What am I supposed to feel or think looking at this?
>>487035338This also baffles me because he jobbed to Rufus and Rufus is definitely weaker than McBurn.
>>487043857Blame his dad. Mindbroke the poor boy at an early age. Feena was the only girl who managed to truly grab his attention.
>>487044082We know that kondo loves to pander to fans and Dana will easily beat Feena in terms of popularity.
>>487044219it's super funny that ys x is the first ys game that had no love interest for adol.
>>487043081>muh headcanonPlay the games againhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHPB31YmbTIReductionism will never win against those who pay attention to the game
>all of Shizuna's development is going to be relegated to the Rean route and she'll hardly interact with Van at allRean x Shizuna is happening
>>487044256He was holding back against Rufus. We all know that happened because of Kondom's hate for Lloyd.
>>487044082>And said as of current, his favorite girl is FeenaUntil next time it's the Ys XI heroine. Or Terra.
>>487044374That's some cope. Feena will always be the staff favorite over Dana and favoritism will be pushed for her because of it while Dana gets scraps at best. Also fans recognize that Feena is the OG and Adol's true love not Dana.>>487044596>more copeNo amount of remakes had Kondo ever care about Terra and Karja won't make him change his mind.
>>487044256Mcburn isn't really a skilled fighter like Rufus and since Lloyd fought a simulacrum of him he couldn't have the same flames as the original. Mcburn tops everyone in terms of raw power.
>>487044464You're reading too much into it. She's saying she can be a witch in her own way as in she doesn't have to be a copy of anything as an extension of her being in Vita's shadow. Not as some third way nonsense.
>>487044256>Lloyd kept McBurn at bay...along with 10 other people
>>487044596>it will totally be olha>it will totally be tia>it will totally be krysha
I like Rufus Albarea
>>487044454Tbf this was an Adol who just recently lost Feena aka his first love. I think Falcom probably didn't feel it be right to start throwing a new girl at him so soon.
I LOVE EMMA AND FEENACUTE AND CANON
>>487044702>favoritism will be pushed for herDana got the exact same treatment as Feena in Ys IX. Then got even more with the official Ys VIII novelisation making Adol and her incredibly in love with each other to the point of forcing other party members into relationships that weren't in the game like Laxia being pushed with the butler.> Kondo ever careWho says Kondo cares? He says what will benefit himself the most at the time. He's the real life Cao. Cao is how Kondo sees himself.
>>487045102Adol loved Feena.Rean loved Emma's breasts.
>>487045198>Then got even more with the official Ys VIII novelisation making Adol and her incredibly in love with each other to the point of forcing other party members into relationships that weren't in the game like Laxia being pushed with the butler.>Danafags' one cope is the non-canon toilet paperMy sides hurt from laughing so hard.>Who says Kondo cares? He says what will benefit himself the most at the time. He's the real life Cao. Cao is how Kondo sees himself.Holy steaming headcanon from the oven!
>>487044989Lapis...
>>487045198Fufu Kondo can finally crush his enemies with his superior intellect.
>>487045612fufu
>>487045286
superior heroine coming through
>>487045934That Alisa looks weird
>>487045541>D-Doesn't count! Come on Feenabro. Falcom obviously isn't opposed to Falcom finding someone else.>headcanonJust experience from dealing with Kondo's interviews over the years.
>>487044809In CS1 she literally acts like a witch from her clan should act. Subtly, without questioning and without attracting too much attention.In CS2 she says that she wants to continue with class 7 and that she doesn't want to be just a witch who obeys the clan blindly and without question.In CS3/4 she tries to be more like Vita and her mother. She dresses like Misty and tries to use black magic to solve her problems (just like Vita and her mother) but in the end she understands that she can't be any of them and finally accepts herself. In Reverie she realizes that she can find her own way out of Erebonia and decides to set out on a journey.Simple... but effective...Finding your own path or ''third path'' is the same thing for most Class 7 charactersAlisa has to choose between her mother and grandfather. But she ends up finding her own path.Laura... errr... I like Laura but...Machias was against the nobles initially but in the end he chose a new pathJusis was also in a position where he had to choose his own path.Fie chose the new family, class 7 instead of Zephyr..
>Worst Ys heroine
>>487046074>Come on Feenabro. Falcom obviously isn't opposed to Falcom finding someone else.Falcom doesn't care about Dana outside of being a face of one of their more popular games. Feena is someone who is not only iconic to them and fans(given that many Ys heroines like Dana are just lazy offshoots of her) but someone they define as the one girl Adol actually loved. You will need to accept the facts, Danabro.>Just experience from dealing with Kondo's interviews over the years.Sounds like you're just in denial.
>>487046201>Fie chose the new family, class 7 instead of ZephyrWtf are you on about? She still considers Xeno, Leo and others her family.
>>487046449That's not Niena. But Leeza was pretty bad too. Olha mogs them both.
>>487046201You're inserting your headcanon into this.
>>487045930>>487045286BASED
>>487046785What did rean say in the original?
Making fun of the Emmafag and his mental delusions... feels like we are back in good old 2018 /fg/...
tia's the only heroine who's tried to kill you so she wins
>>487046458>Falcom doesn't care about DanaFeenabro... We both know that's not true. Where's the Ys 1 and 2 novelisation with a heavy focus on Adol and Feena's love?>Sounds like you're just in denial.Sounds like you're new.
>>487046496>She still considers Xeno, Leo and others her family.Are you dumb?She chose to side with Class 7 during the cold steel events but never stopped considering Zephyr as her family. She just chose Class 7, her new family.>>487046678Everything I said there is supported by the game.
>>487046941Imagine if Adol had just fucked her. She might have probably dropped her plans and looked for another path instead of to destroy everyone.
Rufus? more like Goofus lmao
Emmafags and Feenafags are the most delusional retards here. Imagine living in the constant state of headcanon.
>>487047125It's supported by your headcanon. You even thought that Fie abandoned Zephyr.
>>487047037>Feenabro... We both know that's not true. Where's the Ys 1 and 2 novelisation with a heavy focus on Adol and Feena's love?They don't need toilet paper for that. It's pathetic that Danabros like yourself cling so hard to that non-canon paperweight.>>487047457>Danafag doubling down after getting BTFO
>>487046941Tio AdultTiASASUGA FALCOM!!!
>>487047608>They don't need toilet paper for that.That's cope, Feenabro.
>>487046941Wha about Karja?
why are people always mad about almata in their reviewsyeah they're far from the deepest characters ever made and their whole motivation is kinda dumb but they're just fun and they do crazy shit all the time so it was always fun to see what they were gonna do nexti mean yeah alexandre and viola are super bland but melchior was always hilarious and a complete menace, gerard was awesome and had such an imposing screen presence, arioch had this infectious enthusiasm and olympia had good coom on top of her pretty tragic breakdownthey're not the deepest villains ever but it was fun to have villains do villainous shit and who make you just want to kick their fucking asses again instead of having them be constant dindus who do everything for some greater good. they all had their "tragic" backstories but the game didn't expect you to excuse them for it and the characters sure didn't. obviously every game in the series shouldn't be like this but i don't get why people got so mad over them.
Does anyone have a good full series recap video for kiseki? The last game I played was Sen II in 2014. I lost interest in the series but want to play Kai because I like Kevin a lot.
>>487038630I love that they made her skirt blow upwards so that you can see her ass more clearly. They know that it's all about the ass
>>487051753It's simply because none of them are dindus. Westoids always throw a hissy fit if the antagonists are inherently rotten instead of being corrupted or manipulated good bois like Osborne and Loewe.
>>487052243https://youtube.com/shorts/9BPRSYYf6D0?si=Nit01OsYPfxd_SQJ
>>487051753I like Melchoir and Arioch outside of the Judtih stuff where it says that seeing Golden Blood made him have purpose in life. The rest suck. Gerard is just Fearman. He's also essentially under the equivalent of the curse the whole time because of demonic core. And don't reference that conversation in the game, the game makes it clear that when Van takes it back that Gerard finally sees what it did to him, they essentially pulled the same "Curse affects people, but it's not the curse's fault that they're doing it" thing.Alexandre, I kind of felt bad for but he's just so bland and generic.Viola is awful. Olympia is similar to Alexandre in that I just can't care for her at all.
Falcom creativity is amazing
>>487052956Melchior...Viola... Alexandre...
>>487053160Gideon...Scarlet...Vulcan...
McFreeze
>>487053229Gideon isn't gay like Melchior and Gruda.
>>487052956Lol yeah this is why Almata blows. They're one note villains who belong in an Ys game, just fodder that exist to be beaten up. They're not characters like Alan Richard or Osborne are.

>>487053753Is he going to have any kind of story or is he just there for fanservice? At least Rean has the Yun Ka-Fai stuff.
>>487053747Osborne was good until he turned out to be Reanbrain #25890 and another victim of lolthecurse/ishmelga.
>>487053946He probably has the Sept-terrion plot that'll tie into other stories. After all Creil is meant to be around where the robot similar to Reverie was unearthed.
Almost every Kiseki opening sounds the same to me (except SC)They should just go the old Ys route
will they finally nerf shields in kaithey had 2 games to figure this shit out
>>487054004Osborne was never affected by the curse. He took Ishmelga down with his big iron cock while putting Erebonia in a good place by reducing the noble influence and improving living conditions and infrastructure.
>>487053946He has the Nina stuff with him and will probably steal Celis and Rion's roles, so I would guess he is more tied to Kai's plot than Rean, even if they are both here for fanservice. I don't recall it ever being hinted in Kuro 1 or 2 that Kafai would return to Calvard shortly, so this plotline does come out of nowhere.
>>487049883I love Na-chan so much!
I'm playing Kuro now and the amount of death is quite something. Correct me if I'm wrong but was it Zero that had the most death in-game (as in you can visibly see NPC or named characters dying) up to this point?
>>487054513HAHAHAHAHAHAHA...Osborne plan is a fucking messThings only worked out because:Coincidentally, there is a power that Argres gives to Rean to separate him from Ishmelga.Coincidentally there were several people who could destroy the salt pales and coincidentally there were several witches in specific locations to teleport everyone to help destroy IshmelgaCoincidentally AZOTH still works and managed to stop Ishmelga from conquering the world in Reverie
>>487055462osbornes plan was to essentially do what rean does in the normal end
>>487053946Obviously Kevin in the game for a reason, we just don't know what his mission is yet or why he needs Rufus for it. Purely from the marketing, Kevin is FAR more relevant to the plot of Kai than Rean is since the Ka-Fai and Shizuna thing feels more like a filler fanservice side story.
>>487055602It's a flawed planHe failed
Is it me or does Shizuna feel a lot less carefree in the NISA version?
I love my husbando
>>487055462Osborne would have just did what Rean did himself in the normal end and everything would have worked out. And the Ishmelga in Reverie was kind of a freak accident so you can't blame him for that.>>487055602Pretty much, yeah. Osborne and Rean are meant to be more similar than a first glance suggests.
Is it possible to be this jacked at 70 years old?
>>487056167>would haveKEKNobody cares about alternative scenariosOsborne had a plan and it failed and in the end he was lucky the class 7 characters were there to solve the problems
>>487055314Ao has the terrorists being mowed down by Red Constellation
>>487056574>Osborne had a plan and it failedAccording to who? Last I checked Ishmelga is dead.
>Beauty's Blade>JP version has VAs say Sword Maiden in EnglishI really want to know the logic behind this "translation" decision
>>487056787Just more Fatsuu fanfic nonsense. Her explanation was that "it's more embarrassing". And shes right, but it's only more embarrassing because it sounds fucking retarded.
>>487056787SJWs
>>487056707YesSee >>487055462
>>487056787The fan tl used Sword Maiden so NISA had to change it just to spite Zerofield. They also did it with the "Retributive Tower" but they're so incompetent that the game still has a bunch of references to the Reverse Babel despite the change.
>>487055314Kuro 1 has the most in named characters, though I hesitate to put a lot of them much above nobodies like Roan in CS1. Before Kuro 1, the game with the most named characters dying would have been CS4. Though CS1 was the last game that had more NPC killing, so I'm not sure if it's Azure or CS1 that had the highest shown bodycount. Azure has the ILF being slaughtered, but CS1 has stuff like the ILF gunning down people at Garrelia along with smaller deaths like Roan and the guy who got eaten by a spider.
>>487057204>Trails to Walkhahaha i forgot about that
>>487057027Except that post is nonsense.
>>487057537Nah it’s just what happened Osborne lost to Rean and his plan failed
Whos the strongest?
>>487058006Kasim.
What would happen if a normal dude had sex with Shirley?
>>487058083the most forced character in the entire series
Osborne has more screentime in CS1/2 than CS3/4
>>487057974His plan was a success. Osborne won. Ishmelga lost. >Osborne lost to ReanWho killed Ishmelga for good, so Osborne won. The beauty of Osborne's plan is that if Rean beat him that Ishmelga could be taken outside of Zemuria, and if Osborne beat Rean that he would have done the same thing, except with less risk to Rean. In the end the result was the same, Osborne won and Ishmelga lost, cowering to Rean and seething that Dreichels outplayed him.
>>487058270...is Renne.
>>487058006Rean (Forma de Orge) (Not holding back)
>>487058554Shizuna mogs him
>>487055462>/fg hates omniscient schemers>/fg thinks Osborne sucks because he isn't an omniscient schemer who accounted for ElysiumCold Steel really just can't win with you retards, can it
>none of the ouroboros characters are actually playable if you choose them in chapter 5falcom continually disappoint me
the video that ruined /fg/ and kiseki: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-__snpmalDw
>>487059315>/fg>cold shit simpkek
why can shizuna steal other peoples unique abilitiesher being able to cut through space like lucrezia does is so fucking cringe and retarded
>>487059967don't talk about my wife like that, chud.
>>487058083I really wonder how Kasim would fare against Rutger. I can't remember how much or if it was solely because of Black Alberich fuckery, but the man did fight a guy equally as strong as him for three whole straight days.
>>487060419Kasim would give him a very hard time but Rutger would probably win in the end due to being more experienced.
>shoot a lazer gun>"wow... this guy is the stronger human being who has ever lived......"man they didn't even try with kuro
>>487061113>man they didn't even try Kinda like you in your English classes haha
'luv tales of cold steel
>>487046941rem...
Threadly reminder these two will be the only characters that matter in Kai
>>487058414>>487059315>Ishmelga returned after some months>“osBOrnE wOn”I don’t give a single merit to OsborneHe had the Black RecordsHe knew almost everything and yet he failed to accomplish his goal and in the end it was Rean and Class 7 the true heroes (2x)In the end Osborne planned nothing for Erebonia’s future and now Calvard is the strongest country and Erebonia is supposed to be in a bad state considering the big amount of Mira they paid to Calvard. Also Ishmelga returned... proving that Osborne’s plan is a flawed plan.Osborne in the end accomplished nothing on his own other than fuck Kasia and give life to the worst trails MC. Everything else he played according to the music (black records) or his soul in the past
>>487063323>Ishmelga returned after some monthsHe never did. It was a simulated Ishmelga.

>le homesicknesstrannylators are joke
>>487059012We can't really ever know that since Shizuna never got to fight ogre Rean.
>>487067995Least they can speak English.
The shadows that get cast on Agnes and Feri's faces when they're in the back seat of Van's truck are jaggy as fuck and I'm trying to figure out how to fix it because it kind of annoys me.
>>487068223pot meet kettle
>>487067995why did she need to return in kuro
>>487068759So they could have yet another fucking scene where Renne talks about her past while everyone goes "wow... look how strong and brave you've become. you've grown up. that's our Renne...". Falcom only knows how to reuse.
>rixia mentions rean in the heiyue routehaha...
>>487069245>Rean>Not LloydLlyod-kun....
>>487068759Good question. In Kuro she's basically the female version of Rean where everything has to revolve around the black hole mary sue. She even damaged the best Anguis we've had since Weissmann.
>>487069245She namedrops both Rean and Arios but never Lloyd kek. She loves big tachi dick.
>>487071104Good size
>>487071104it sort of ceases to be sexually attractive when theyre this comically large
Will Lloyd the next figure according to popularity polls? Or Olivier?
>>487071801if it was zero lloyd i'd buy that in a heartbreak but they'd make it the shitty cs4 lloyd
>>487071801I always thought these character polls were irrelevant but after Kai's announcements and Kondo's latest interview it became clear which characters will reappear in the franchise. Who is the least popular Spriggan?
>>487071798homosexual faggot
>>487071801Loewe, Rufus, or they'll finally do one for Kuro with Anies.
>>487063560A simulated Ishmelga created by a system that unfathomably manifested into existence after he died, no less.Kusoeaters say they hate omniscient schemers but can't handle it when they finally get a schemer that doesn't just inexplicably know everything. They'd probably have a Musse body pillow if they could see anything Cold Steel-related without their brains exploding lmao
>>487073278Feri

>>487074139
>>487075179Fake
>>487071801It would be nice if they started making a swimsuit line of figures for the female characters, based on their swimsuits from the games. I'm sure that they would sell like crazy. They would also give fans an idea of what the girls' buttcracks feel like physically too.
>>487075716based
>van and friends are fighting against all of mcburn, walter, and lucrezia near the rocket launch site>van: "tch, looks like i'll have to use THAT...! mar-">voice: "haha, that will not be necessary!">cue an epic remix of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_r_tEhzh5X0
>>487042812>Cold Steel 'Third way'd'Lmfao no it didn't. Cold Steel 1 and 2 had the nobles as LITERAL mustache twirling villains. The story TOLD you Class 7 was a 'third way' when really they were just opposing the nobles. Then Falcom were like "Lol whoops!" and instead made 3 and 4 about opposing the military.
>>487042812Japs don't have literal hundreds of thousands of immigrants pouring into their country every month, all who don't speak the same language, don't have any love or respect for the country they're illegally crossing into, and have no desire to learn the customs or language of their new home.One day it'll happen to them (you already see their political leaders talking about letting in mass immigration) and maybe they'll sing a different tune. In the mean time they can sit in their ivory tower and preach about how everyone should be accepted.
>>487037660Please dont call me a fag but im playing daybreak and is there any mention of rean or at least appearance of class 7? IM ON CHAPTER 1
>>487067103Right all night.
>>487078964Kill yourself Reanfaggot.
>>487078659>falcom try to make an allegory for real life racism>except the people who immigrate to calvard all assimilate into the local culture, don't live in cultural enclaves, learn the local language to the point that they're indistinguishable from the natives and have no accents, dont commit crime en masse and worship the same god as the calvardians>so theres no actual tension between the races, just wypipo being le raycisso fucking dumb
>>487052397What a load of bullshit. People just hate stupidly written villains.>MUH FEEEEEEEEEEEEEERYou embarass yourself trying to defend that utter trash.
>>487079256Because Bell was such a compelling villain, right?
>>487079040It'd be really cool if van was like "divine blade? there was this really cool guy in the empire making waves but hes gone quiet...."
>>487079120Edith is also 99% white whereas if it was a real city it just be hordes of browns.
>>487079371Mariabell has more understandable and coherent motives than all of Almata combined, and that must really sting
>>487053946Has ANY returning character been anything more than a support bitch?Unironically the closest is probably Schera/Olivier because their relationship advanced and they got married. Meanwhile characters like Tita/Agate/Estelle/Joshua are brought back to do the same repeated joke. I guess you could say the SSS but their entire plotline in Reverie is a complete joke.The only time a returning cast meant shit was Zero with Estelle/Joshua/Renne.
>>487079120Calvard is entirely racial enclaves though, with the eastern quarter, and Tharbad, and then the north is white
>>487079779this is the only art ive seen where someone drew olivier to be edgy
>muh ars magna>understandable and coherentlmao
>>487054425Being that shields have been broken since the very first game, no.
>>487079936Still more than all of Almata.
>>487054425They've shown so little of the gameplay we have no idea. Honestly though I doubt they're going to change very much. They changed very little from Kuro 1 > 2. Kai just looks like even more of a copypaste. I mean shit, they didn't even update anyones field attack moves so the Kuro 1 characters are going to still feel like shit to play while the Kai chracters will all feel smoother.
senspic melty
>>487079120Don't forget they contribute way more than the natives, which contribute absolutely nothing - not economically, not technologically, and not even martial arts wise, and all their companies are ran by white supremacists.
Who's knocking on his door at the start of Kai? Or will they be completely fucking SOULLESS and skip it?
>>487068759it's honestly a damn shame how overused she's become.
>>487073278What'd he say in the interview?
>>487080863>>487080863>Anime Herald: Are there any times where you’ve received feedback from the players that has influenced your design choices for a future game?>Toshihiro Kondo: Yes. A great example from the Trails series where we took player feedback regarding characters. We listen to that very closely. If there are particular characters, whether they are party characters or NPCs, if the fanbase really likes a particular character, we’ll give that character more of the spotlight in a future title. More of a close-up.>Anime Herald: Can you give a specific example where this has happened?>Toshihiro Kondo: There are examples in future titles I can’t talk about right now because they would be spoilers. For the most recent title, Trails Through Daybreak, Shizuna has limited screen time and limited play-ability. Let’s just say, in future installments she gets more of the spotlight due to fan feedback and fan reaction.>To give an even older example, if we go back to the Trails in the Sky games, there’s a bracer named Anelace. She has a yellow ribbon in her hair and likes cute stuff. She wasn’t playable in the first game. Players really liked her so in the second game, she’s with Estelle in the bracers guild.https://www.animeherald.com/2024/07/20/anime-expo-2024-falcom-president-toshihiro-kondo-talks-to-anime-herald/
>>487081510She's so popular, that's why they made her nothing but sequel bait for 3 games in a row.
>>487081510Probably why Renne has come back so much.
>>487081510so theyll take feedback on returning character crap but they wont take feedback on the shit gameplay?
>>487081510New characters will have no chance against popular returning characters
>>487082452They do that too, Kondom said Japan really liked the 2-people party system in Ys
>>487080486Bergard presumably will knock.
>>487080486Kevin who's gonna tell Van to pack it up and let a real MC get shit done around here.
>>487084116that would be goodthen you would have the 3 most influential people in his life being the ones who come to him with jobswould be gay if for kai it was just some retard like rean who knocked
melchior is such a shit character
>>487086637No chance. Onion boy is on the picnic squad's leash. He goes nowhere without Nadia's say-so. He probably won't even get to interact with anyone outside of that route.
She will win.
>>487087367Sure, that's why Kevin's on the cover art and Rufus or any of the picnic shitters aren't.
>>487087632>he thinks cover art is indicative of plot relevance and screentime
>>487087795i cant believe falcom got away with this
>>487087632Na-chan let him be on it
>>487086760Well all of the early screenshots indicate that it will be Bergard. I kinda wanted Shizuna to be the one who knocks, but I don't think she has any reason to do it aside from having fun with Van, though Van did say in her connect event that if she has a problem she could always send 4spg to him and he'll help her.
Famitsu news this week
>>487081510Kinda lame. Would rather them bring back characters because they feel like there's something to expand on, not for fanservice. This is probably why most returning characters these days come back and do jack shit.
>>487089427When Estelle, Joshua and Renne came back in Zero it was great because they were continuing on a story that had been set up in Sky 3rd. They never really recaptured that kind of feeling again and after that a lot of the returning characters were just fanservice cameos that had no story to tell.
>>487089683Even then, Zero only happened because Falcom needed a quick buck and started to chase trendsSky 1+2 and CS1+2 were truly the only honest games Falcom has made
>>487081510what's funny about this is it's falcom literally admitting they just add random new characters without giving any substantial thought to where they fit in the overarching storyline
>>487089683the returning character slop somehow became the main appeal of this seriespeople care more when they see OMG IS THAT IRRELEVANT NPC FROM 7 GAMES AGO???? than they do anything new they do
so does quatre have a pingas or a baginjo
>>487089683Yeah. It's even worse because they don't give you any closure on any returning characters as well. Joshua and Estelle are at the same place in their relationship as the end of 3rd (some would even argue it took several steps back) and really haven't even progressed that much as bracers.Same with Agate.Tita got SOME development with her mom at least. She's actually probably the best returning character in Cold Steel I can think of. She felt like she belonged instead of just being some random face returning.In my opinion the most worst-off returning characters are any of the Ouroboros members. Cold Steel robbed them of all their mystique and flat out made them all annoying as fuck.Weismann is the best villain in the series, a large part because he just died instead of becoming a joke. Modern Weismann would unironically be very similar to Duvalie.>Weismann trying to be serious, making an evil speech>McBurn: *Yawns*>"I'M TRYING TO BE SERIOUS HERE!!!" *laugh track plays*
>>487090180In all these recent interviews, Kondo has admitted that>They only jumped the tech level so far in Crossbell because it was trendy at the time>Kuro 2 had no clear direction and everyone who worked on it just threw in random shit they liked>They decide who to bring back in the series based on how popular characters are and not if they have any point to the storyIt's like Kondo wants people to turn on the series.
>>487090016Yeah i feel the same, CS3 started this trend where falcom began retconning the shit out of it and stopped caring about building up characters and future events from the previous games. Kondo himself admitted that they had no idea about what Calvard is gonna be like after CS4, aside from the immigrants vs nationalists, also Van was the first thing they came up with after scrathing the idea of ouroboros protagonist.
>>487090428>>487090180Only a few years ago people headcanon'd the thought that Kiseki was some mastermind world building series that was thought up from the startlollmao
>>487090428Every recent news from Falcom comes off like they're super fucking tired of the series desu. Can't say I'll even be sad to see the series end. They clearly ran out of ideas a long time ago and are just recycling shit over and over.
>>487090582If they don't want to make the series anymore, then don't. Or take a long break from it. I hate the passive-agressiveness they've been displaying lately and I hate how completely low effort the games have become. I'd rather they stopped making them entirely than half-ass them with 0 interest like they're clearly doing. Every time I see Kondo gives some 0 interest interview I want to deck him in the fucking face. Why did you let me play these games for so long only to check out now?
>>487090180I wonder how Shizuna was originally planned to be involved in Kuro 2, it did feel like she kinda throw her way in with Van, but that was the case since Kuro 1 so it didn't feel out of place for her. While I agree that Shizuna didn't really do anything substantial in Kuro 2, it did feel like she became closer with Van and co. he even started calling her by name and he doesn't mind getting more friendly, so I guess that counts as a bit of development.
kiseki was just the victim of falcoms greedwhen they started kiseki there were years long gaps between the games so they could develop them more clearlythen starting with zero theres a kiseki game basically every fucking year until cold steel 2 and then from cs3 basically every fucking year until nowno wonder they're tired of the series, they forced themselves into this position instead of letting the series naturally develop
>>487090858>>487091558Not that easy for them to stop really, it is their consistent money maker after allAnd the series is money in the West for them where as Ys is kinda whatever
>>487089042Will they show Rean again or new characters?
news this week confirmedWho are we getting this time?
>>487092023>confirmedproofs??
>>487092017>>487092023>>487089042More Rean wank
>>487092059https://x.com/WeeklyFamitsu/status/1815221272604971211>>487092017what's the point if class 7 was already announced?
I think we'll get Shizuna, Kurogane, Ka-fai and mb some other characters like Jolda etc.
>>487092017>>487092194Would be extremely funny if they just reused all the shit they uploaded to their website for Class 7 and it was nothing new.
>>487092194Maybe there's more Class 7 characters and they will appear together
>>487092450Well... Kondo confirmed more returning character We just don't know if they are from Sen, Kekbell or Sky
>>487090559There's only one mastermind world building series that had actual thought put into it decades in advance and managed to end on a satisfying note without becoming the clusterfuck that current Kiseki is(pic related)
>>487092450nah, even if we get other class 7 members they'll probably be NPCs. Both picnic squad and class 7 have 4 playable characters and 2 support characters Lapis and Towa and I don't think there'll be more playable character for their routes.
>Any way you slice ithaha... rean is so funny
What are you anons thoughts on kuro 2?
>>487092793Thank you, Hatsuu!
>>487092778We don't even know if Towa and Altina are with Rean in the mountains
>>487092793xseed rean is so funny*
>>487092916worst game in the series tied only with cs3
>>487092778Meanwhile Van's route with 15 characters... Returning characters or not I think more characters will join in their route like happened in Reverie with picnic squad
>>487092916Best game in the series since SC
>>487093248Van's route should have more characters because they cancelled Kuro 3 for this game. His cast has more to get through than Class 7 who are only there so Rean can have a party of 4.
>>487093061yeah it's kinda funny that in the japanese he just says it's a tachi and then moves on without saying much else but xseed added an entire play on words and explained that it's eastern style
>>487092916shit story, fun character banters, fun gameplay, mediocre music, retarded dead ends5/10, not the worst game in the series, that goes for CS3/4, but it's a huge wasted potential and a game with no direction.
>>487093390Bloated cast is even worse for Spriggans. They won't be stupid enough to put a lot of characters in one route and just a few in others.
AHUGHGUGHHA he saw my movie now i want him to pump me full of his cum
>>487093248mb Spriggans will split up into 2 groups? There're screenshots with Ronnie, but without Van (or mb he's in reserve).
>>487093160>>487093482This is my fourth or fifth time attempting to start it and I am just so fucking apathetic I want to drop it again, never made it more than 2-3 hoursI'm really trying to force myself to push on this time but I keep fucking around on 4chan, and I've actually been finishing vidya lately so it's not like I just killed my attention span or anything
>>487093482The dead ends were the best part tho. After all the low-stakes bullshit in Cold Shit, it was refreshing to see the cast die in various ways. I want to see more of that. A shame they couldn't get a bit more gorey and bloody with the deaths however
>>487093813>it was refreshing to see the cast die in various waysnever happened :^)
>>487093772Just wait out for the English release m8, might as wellOnly a few months away, better port, better loc, dub audio
>>487093746Is this a new park area? I thought it was retarded how Edith's big park was outside of the city for some reason.
>>487093889>a few months awayHow? Kuro 1 English just came out, no?Also I don't plan on giving any money to NISA regardless, I didn't buy Kuro 1 and I don't plan to
>>487093390We know there will be Kevin and the Picnic Squad together but we don't know if Class 7 will be togetherIn the trailer, Altina appears separate from Crow, Rean and Fie and doesn't have a HUD, so we don't know if Altina is there or not.
>>487093986why would a giant park in the middle of the city that houses like 800k people be filled with monsters? of course falcom don't actually think about that
>>487093746Man you can really tell that Kai's UI was not made for English in mind.
>>487093889>better loc>trannylators
>>487094202Few is probably too little but early 2025 is right around the corner, it's already AugustYou already tried 4-5 time with the current game might as well wait it out, probably out within 6 months or so, just play other shit for now>Also I don't plan on giving any money to NISA regardless, I didn't buy Kuro 1 and I don't plan toBased. Pirate it
>>487093772same happened to me with CS3 and especially CS4, I had to force myself to finish them and by the end I didn't care about anything. Kuro 2 was easier because I like the cast more and kiseki for me was always about characters rather than the story, so it helped me to get through it.
>>487094408I mean Kuro's but same shit they didn't change it anyway.
>>487094413You can try and meme it with the Kuro1 tl vs offical locBut to say the Kuro2 TL which features a poorly transcribed script of a YOUTUBE play through as well literal MTL in places of the game that aren't the main story... yeah nah
>>487094408yep, you can tell by how squashed the text looks like in the eng UI.
why did they give up on the environment design in these gameseverything in kiseki is just a green frield, a mountain pass or an underground ruin or some floating platform phase-space bullshitthere are almost no unique biomes and only very rarely do you see something like snow or desert
>>487094882tharbad had a giant ass desert full of nothing
>>487094426Well I am farther now than any of my other attempts so I'm going to atleast try a little longer, maybe it'll click. If I quit again I will wait for the official >>487094450Oddly enough I had no issues getting through cs3 and cs4, even though they are by far the worst games in the series, probably because I was doing drugs at the time I played them so I had less standards I liked both hajimari and kuro a lot but didn't play either of the official versions, I played them both the moment there was an English patch available
>>487095069CS3 and CS4 were much better than reverie
https://youtu.be/5WRorJb7kX8Ban is so cool...
this game's plot is so fucking stupid
>>487097050I really hope this will be a new battle theme. Battle junction 1209 sounds like it could be another battle theme or a new grendel theme.
>>487094408It's crazy how they spent TEN games perfecting their old UI just to throw it away with Kuro's engine. I don't understand why they did it, but then again I don't really understand anything about how modern Falcom is run.
>>487097834They wanted Kuro to be the "FC" of the next 10 years of games that they would build on but they pretty much immediately gave up on that when Kuro 1 didn't sell 200k copies week 1.
>>487097834Don't forget the battle system, reverie's battle system was so fucking fun and the culmination of all games before it...
>>487097995there was nothing else that could be done with that battle system, that's why they pushed it to the limit in reverieyou can't add any more shit on top of that without it becoming extremely bloated it needed a new directionthe problem is that kuro's new direction is just way too barebones and not thought out
Sorry but CS2 is peak UI
>>487097834Yeah it's sickening honestly, playing kuro 2 just has me missing the old combat so much. I'm honestly nervous about Metaphor too because it seems like a rip off of kuros system
>Gets his own battle theme in your path even though he's supposed to only be tagging on to the picnic squad
What’s the point in waste Famitsu pages with characters that we already know that will be in Kai with the same art from Kuro 1? Show us the other returning characters or more info about the new characters or new artNobody will be hyped to see Cao again with the same art from Kuro 1
>>487097550i dont like the grendel themes they all sound way too low energy and battle junction 1209 is more of the same
>>487098247There's tons they could've done with that system without adding much. Reverie's mechanics were horribly tuned. Nerf arts, expand and balance craft lists, buff stuff like status and face tanking, add more distinct effects to MQs to make each one stand out, etc. Falcom just never cared enough to try and balance their system. Reverie gameplay was the peak of the series in terms of options, but it left a lot on the table balance-wise.
>>487098484Man... I hate how Kevin’s face is Van’s faceIt’s so weird
>>487098626Cao brings in more players than class 7
Mare-chan sex simulator when?
>>487098976small company 0 budget 0 interest please understand
>>487098976i like it kinda fits, now we have green Van and dark bluish Van. Two Van's are better than one.
>>487092715Can I play rance and ignore the hentai part?
>>487099471the noses are different
do you think this is the place where everyone will meet?
>>487100060They seem to want you to think so
>>487100060it might be a grim garten/märchen garten area
Kai no Kiseki information in this week's Famitsu.
>>487100060That could very well be Grim Garten.Personally I don't know yet if it's Grim Garten, or just the first area that was done thus best place to show of playable characters.
>>487100060Brazil
>>487099064new kai minigamei want to bury my face in mares fat fuckin arse
>>487100334news!!
>>487100401I would eat her fairy asshole
>>487100401BRRRAAPPPPPP
>>487100341I think this place is in Ored and everyone seem to be interested in it.
>>487098912Face tanking never needed buffs. There was an MQ that reduces damage taken every hit and if you give that to lloyd he overcomes his barriers by becoming the barrier
Bros... why is so sad...
>>487100973Goodbye, I must go back to my true body.I am eternally grateful to you for freeing me from the clutches of MTSC, child of man.
>>487100973The day will break... shard will swell one last time...
>>487100973She needs the dick
>>487100973she can't get pregnant with grendels babies
>>487100973Honestly she needed way more screentime, her relationship with Van is super underbaked (like most things in Kuro 1/2)
what do you think the very first scene of Kai will be
>>487101641Either Gramheart fufuing about his rocket and how it's now time for his plan to begin, or the GM doing the exact same. Maybe even both at the same time.
>>487101641>>487101641Epic battle with Rean/Van/KevinVan smirks>Heh you were wondering how we got here
>>487100060>falcom time
>>487101641Anal Ace putting on her shoes going "I can't wait to go to Calvard to meet my friend Van"
>>487100334>below reynatisholy kek IT'S OVER
Today, I will remind them.
>>487101978I'm sure it's because of release datesIt's still over though
>>487037660Is there a trick to making daybreaks combat enjoyable? Like, reveries was the ultimate system and this feels like unnecessary innovation. Maybe I'm getting too old for videogames....
>>487102141That's fucking bleak. It really is over.
>>487101978>>487102286>>487102141??? are you guys retarded?
>>487102368Yes. Are you?
>>487039675My headcanon says that Adol had many one night stands and fathered many bastard children but chose to left it all out from his journals years later because he's ashamed of it.
>>487102368those are all 1 anon btw
>>487102368>being overshadowed by a furyu gameohnononono
>>487102197I'm still trying to understand how to play 'optimally' without looking up cheese but so far its been a big help knowing Van has an aggro craft and can basically get an entire group to ignore everyone else
By this point in Kuro 2's marketing we had>Every single playable character, villain and returning character>Details on every new combat mechanic>Details on new connect events that would feature multiple characters instead of 1>Details on the Marchen Garten>Details on the new Fishing mechanic>Details on 6 new minigames>Details on the chapter select system>A basic outline of the events that kick off the game aka Grendel Zolga massacreing a Hercules team underneath EdithNow Kais marketing>Most (but not all) playable characters, who knows how many returning characters still not shown, nothing about the villains>Barebones details on combat mechanics, we still haven't had the brave orders shown off yet even though we can see the icon in the screenshots>0 info on Grim Garten, minigames, other misc mechanic changes, structure of the game, the basic plot hook
good i'm glad, spoilers in marketing is lame
They're not avoiding showing things off because they don't want to "spoil" people because they've never given a shit about that it's becuase they have nothing to show.
>>487103070>brave orders shown off yet even though we can see the icon in the screenshotscan you post it? i haven't seen the screenshot
I'm in chapter 5 of Daybreak and I'm thinking this Gerard fellow might be kinda mean.
>>487046000Superior you mean?
>>487103270You can see the icon here as L3>>487093746This is also why they brought back support characters.
>>487103210Can't wait for a post launch dlc update where we can finally see the true ending.
>>487102037I fucking hate Cold Steel and even I'll say Cold Steel 1 is 'okay'.Not surprised people excitedly picked up CS2 afterwards, witnessed how fucking awful it was, then never continued with the rest of the series.
>>487103370100% happening. Every game since Hajimari has significant post-game updating needing to be done because they weren't finished.
>>487103372My favorite part of CS2 is Fie's outfit.
>>487103323Fearman is one of my favorite kiseki antagonist. He's fun, actually capable of killing shit ton of people and stays true to himself till the end (which is a very rare quality for a kiseki antagonist, only Weissmann tops Gerard in that regard).
>>487103535kuro 2s was like a 5 second cutscene
>>487103629No clue what the FUCK his problem is, but yeah, he does make for an interesting villain.
>>487103629>stays true to himself till the endHe doesn't though, after Van rips out the diabloic core from him he remarks about how he can finally see how Evil it is.
>>487103715But, I mean, is he saying that out of repentance or admiration?
>>487103824Well it's implied that coming into contact with the core somehow changed him.
>>487103715He said it in admiration if anything, he never repented or said something like "maybe I was wrong".
I want a blowjob from Mare-chan
>>487104153You basically admitted you have a smol pp
>>487103987Gerard literally said that it's the path that he chose himself when Van tried to sympathize with him, Gerard told him to fuck off.
>>487104291That was before Van ripped out the core.
>>487104190Her jaw will break, sis...
>>487104392But Gerard never repented, he basically said to Van "maybe you can fulfill my wishes" it's like Armstrong and Raiden "we aren't so different you and i".
>>487103070It’s really weird CS3/ CS4/ Reverie/ Kuro 1/ Kuro 2I remember how every week or two Falcom showed a lot of info about the game: minigame/ new towns/ some new mechanic/ the charactersKai marketing is the worst so farMaybe they will enter in the full marketing mode next month but so far there’s little info and I don’t think it’s because they don’t want to show spoilers more like: they don’t have anything to show other than returning characters We don’t even know if there’s a new city in Kai Where’s Rion/ Celis/ Rixia/ Walter/ Lucrecia/ Harwood/ Rixia/ Renne/ Gouran/ Hamilton... we don’t even know if they are in the game because there’s zero screenshots with them. And I think they will bring a lot of returning characters (NPC or nothing)Kai will be a mess
>>487105129>We don’t even know if there’s a new city in Kaiwe've seen several lol
>>487105129They're only showing off new characters because that's all they have. They didn't bother with any new minigames or fixing the shit ones from Kuro 2, they didn't try to update LGC to make it not a waste of time, they didn't add anything new to the marchen garten except change the name so no chance they're fixing what a piece of shit that is. They've got nothing and they know it.
>bring rean back to sell more games>also cuck him in one of the first promotional screenshots showing him and crowkek holy shit falcom
when will rean have a canonical love interest
>>487105259its funny i remember when kuro 1 came out i was thinking that lgc was kinda underbaked and they'd flesh it out in a sequellittle did i know that was the best it was ever going to get haha...
>>487105368Cumdoll is all we're getting
>>487105129>We don’t even know if there’s a new city in KaiAnchorville, Ored and 2 new districts for Edith were already announced.
>>487105609That's it? They had 2 years between Kuro 2 and Kai. We're just getting another 90% rehashed game? Boy I can't wait for 90% of the game to take place in Edith again...
>>487105247There’s no information about the screenshotWe don’t know if it’s a new town or just a new area from the same towns from past games That’s why it’s weird There’s no info
>>487105692It's new towns
>>487105678Anchorville seems to be pretty big and we still don't know how big ored will be. The only city I wish they had was Altair.
>>487105921It'll be two screens in town, the Marduk hq, the field with the wheat and the ruins dungeon. We know it's the prologue of the game so it's not going to be big.
falcom will declare bankruptcy following the launch of kai
Kondom here, no English localization for Kai because we're going bankrupt
>>487106264falcom have enough money in reserve to eat flops for the next decadethey put the bare minimum into the games and probably make most of their money on merch
>>487105678I don't think falcom can afford more new towns, cs had a pretty big break for falcom to make the western half of erebonia while kuro games are basically being made without a pause and now that kai actually needs to be packed with story events and characters, they concentrated all their effort on it. Calvard already is pretty big and we're getting Ored, Anchorville and all of the districts in Edith.
do you guys think kai will have a comedic hot springs scene?
OH FUCK
>>487106504Of course it will. Van and Rean will bond over it while everyone else does that water drop emote and say shit like "wow these guys are peas in a pod huh..." and "ahaha...."
>>487105921Agnes will meet Emma in Anchorville and will train with her after she remember her past as a witch of the past and the link with Sunshine Agnes Richard will appear in Ored together with AnelaceGaius will join Celis and Rion and they will help Nina and BergardTio will appear as NPC together with Elie. Xin will appear too.
Zane will appear in Kai
>>487106059>>487105921>>487105773>>487105692New locations confirmed so far>MTSC HQ>Temple Ruins>Wheat farm>Creil ruins(technically new)>Zeque Space Military Base>Ishgal Mountains >Anchorville>Two Edith Districts>some highways in Edith regionSome more I expect to be in the game>Ludos>White Haven>Possibly highway between Tharbad and Ludos
>>487106352>probably make most of their money on merch
>>487106702who the fuck is zane
>Switch preorders are still at 100%>PS4 preorders are still at 100%>PS5 are already down to 75% after 2 weeks of initial announcement>Daybreak was top 3 WORLDWIDE PS5 salesDaybreakhaters... our response???
>>487106848Everyone's favorite character, Zane Vathek
>>487106762Oh they actually sold out Van and Agnes plushies made by NISA.
>>487106950>>487106762why are kiseki LE's so shit nowwho would want to hang a map of empty as fuck calvard up in their room
>>487106950That's kinda bad desu, Zero and Azure sold out in a few days
>>487106950>Art book is just art of the characters from Kuro 1Lmao.
>>487106959It's been so long... I miss him bros
>>487107217Spriggans other than Van and Agnes didn't get an updated character art.
>>487106959they murdered him harder in 3d than they did randy
>>487107367I know. Which is why selling the same art again in a separate art book is hilarious. Falcom are scam artists.
>>487107372I think Randy ended up looking fine once he got his usual fit back. I actually like Zin's design a lot in Calvard but I think I miss his poofier pants.
>>487107589his art and design is fine, it's his in game model that looks retarded
>>487107663Can't argue with that. I'm not really sure what it is honestly. He looks, I dunno, maybe thinner than I'd expect? They spend so much time calling him a bear that finally seeing him in 3D and seeing the only bear-like quality is just that he's tall was a little disappointing.
>>487107837he looks he used to be extremely fat and then lost a shit ton of weighthe has that look like he melted like a lot of ex-fatties do and he's not as built as he should be
>>487107931looks like a druggo who went off of meth
>>487105481Listen if Falcom had the balls to make Rean Altina canon I'd fucking kneel. That'd be worth it for the sheer amount of seething and melties it would generate from the twitter trannies.
>>487106520Eh, she'll be fine. No one dies anyway. Should have honestly killed her though.
>>487109441They may as well have considering they go on to just fuck her up any time she shows up after this.
>>487107931He was never fat. He has the same physique in the FC artwork as in the Daybreak artwork.
>>487109598Maybe not fat, but he was a wide lad
>>487109598I know he wasn't, i'm just saying that's what he looks like in his new model.
>>487042497The Runnyfaggot insisted that they were the same character. Is this the power of MTL?
>>487112469The entirety of /fg/ thought they were the same person back in the day
>>487112665Not even back in the day. This is like December 2023.
ask not what falcom can do for you... ask what you can for falcom
>>487112469where
>>487113218will he have form shift like Juna THO?
>>487113218This reminds me of how ridiculous and lame Lloyd's tonfas were. What the fuck were those red orbs on it anyway?
>>487028681I really didn't grow to like Rean until CS3 to be honest. 2 was fine but it was missing something to actually sell me on his issues and his overall feelings on the matter. they keep telling us that is he is scared of the power inside of him but never show WHY until the finale of CS3. he did go berserk against those Jaegers in 2 and the bear in the past but even those instances didn't carry any negative connotations as they ultimately benefitted him, just like every other instance of him using it. I really would've preferred had they taken the same direction that 3 had from the getgo. despite the retardation and retcons, NuCVII isn't shafted nearly as badly as the original, there's a given reason for Rean's self loathing and his self esteem issues, there's an actual negative consequence to Ishmelga taking over (before they removed it in 4) and some scenes in those 3 games are some of the best in the series overall
>>487113625Materia, nvm wrong game
>the Curse in canon is supposed to be acting like a devil on Erebonia's shoulder and giving them a push to commit atrocities by enchancing emotions>constantly presented as the cause of everything bad (which results people into thinking it's mind control) and only few characters actually meant all the evil shit they did because every single time "OH WELL THE CURSE DID IT THEY ACTUALLY ARE REALLY GOOD"Ash and some others are the only characters directly involved with Ishmelga that don't make me want to bash my head against a wall until I get a concussion because fuck me, is everyone else awful
>>487100334Could be Rean's sprites, as they didn't appear in famitsu yet>>487103070>Details on new connect events that would feature multiple characters instead of 1To be fair, it felt more like they did that because they had to rush the game and didn't have time to create one for each character
>>487114241Rean and others were already announced retard, why would falcom waste a famitsu article to show them again?
>>487114481Falcom's one of the most retarded video game developers of all time. You tell me.
for someone so "retarded" they sure have stayed in the business for this long
>>487116193Yeah, and they've managed to completely tank the sales of all their ongoing franchises within just a few years. Amazing.
>>487116193thats also the reason all their surviving contemporaries are household names while they're completely irrelevant
>>487116362>>487116472Falcom just saw the writing on the wall decades ago about endless growth capitalism being bad. They're so much ahead in the game it looks like they're behind.
good night guys i just finished an 8 hour kuro gaming session i am going to prepare some tacos and then go to sleep
>>487116769>tacos for dinnerew.
falcom is still doing pretty good and there's a chance they might get a huge increase in sales when switch 2 will get released.
>>487116929We said this at the start of the Switch, then the PS5Falcom never capitalizes on a new console release
>>487116769Based, I also played for about that long today. No tacos though, so your night is better than mine.
>>487117072Your morning will be better than his when he shits out fire and chillis, your asshole will thank you for it
>>487117150Probably having white boy tacos, no fire shits cause he's a lil' bitch.
>>487117150You're not wrong. I miss a few years ago where I could down all kinds of spicy food and be just fine the next day. These days if I overdo it even a little bit, the shit can be so bad sometimes it'll wake me up in the middle of sleeping. I literally have to plan eating spicy food around having a day off the next day just in case.
>>487117432Fuck when does that happen? I'm 32 and can go as hard as I want with no downsides.
>>487117551Hits at different points for people I guess. Hell, maybe you'll get lucky and maintain an iron stomach. For me, it happened when I hit 26. I'm 29 now, and even eating half a bag of hot cheetos or something will kill me. It sucks because I fucking love spicy food but now I have to be careful with it.
>>487117346same poster here i am adding some habanero hot sauce and jalapeno slices to the tacos
>>487117432i can't even eat pasta without getting the shits within an hour. CSzoomies enjoy the food while you can and don't roll celiac disease
>>487117753I might have to kill myself if I actually obtained a weakness to gluten. I can go with monitoring my spice intake, but having to dance around every carb in existence? Pass.
great thing about tacos is if you have celiac you can still resort to the corn tortillas
>>487117896Yeah but they recycled the stands and the meat tornado. I never tought taco stands had the meat tornado.
>>487117896That's true. I actually prefer corn tortillas anyway.
I just nutted to cs2 alisa so hard I passed out what am I doing with my life
>this timeIt's every time. This nigger always ends up being the MVP, haha...
>>487119035What even factors into who gets EOTM?
>>487118914yeah you have shit taste. If there is a girl to nut on cs2 is fie on her best design ever.
>>487119438You can pretty easily control who gets EOTM by managing who uses S crafts. All you have to do is spam S crafts constantly with the character you want, and they'll get EOTM. There's more factors than just S crafts, but S crafts gives characters the most "points" for EOTM.
>>487119035what does it matter those boosts are pitiful
>>487092793>it's basically a longswordlol, nohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfA90UijSLc
>>487121550You need to get EOTM once with everyone to finish off the cheevo list and get U material+s.
What's with all the engrish in the fansub?>Reon>Ranster
Lean Schwalzel
why do they even bother giving you these +1 stat boost items they make 0 difference
I love Leon (Proto-Ranster)!
>>487121992Sell them for the 1 million mira earned in-game achievement.
>>487121550Agnes, Feri and Agnes can get the bonus 5 or more times. That's 1k+ health and 20+ in all stats. Adds up.
>>487122527A bit of a niche application as well, but it's the only way to stronger in NG+ as well without shelling out for the stat boosters since the achievement list doesn't reset.
>>487122527>aaron*
Finally beat Ys V PS2 version. The game is not long at all only 12 hours or so. It's garbage though and needs a thorough remake. Some parts are unfinished like the titular Kefin has 2 weapon shops that sell the same things right next to each other. Here's Adol sail away to eventually end up in another shipwreck, kickstarting his adventure in VIII.
>>487123872id let her ride me
Shizuna owes me sex.
>>487124580only if you can defeat her
>>487124954Just need to borrow Kasim's gun to do that.
>>487124954I can defeat her with my brain and my dick.
She just needs some training.
>>487125838good doggie
>>487125251or steal her sword
Ok, I have to know: was the part in Chapter 4 when confronting Olympia and Melchior and Aaron basically says he's not going to kink shame, when Melchior talks about how he was sucking Callaghan's dick or whatever, the same in JP? It stuck out so much
>>487130136Best girls except musse. Knowing about half cs3 that i could not romance leonora almost made me give up on the arc.
>>487129773Yeah, it's the same in japanese.It's okay to be gay, but you should burn in hell anyway unrelated to that.
Ishmelga should have tentacled Rean more. Faggotize the harem MC even it's an alternate universe version of him.
>>487130136CS3/4 sucked but the branch campus npcs are my favorite npcs across all the games. They're better than the actual cast kek
>>487038630That's the part of the body that Estelle poops from. She poops from there. She. Poops. From. There.
Ban-san!
>>487138431cute wife
who are we expecting in this week's news
>In Kiseki nobody dies>except market manager OttoПoчeмy тaк?

>>487141283They already did Elaine last month.
>>487141548Yeah, but they've done Kevin/Rufus, and they've done Rean, so Elaine/Heiyue is probably next.
This week's reveals>Latoya Hamilton>Gerhard Schmidt>Albert Russell>Frederick Novartis>new areas around Basel
>>487142336hamilton was already revealed with quatre
>>487142554She was only a footnote in Quatre's page. This week they are focusing on all 3 official disciples of Epstein alongside Novartis.
>>487142336You know, there's a line in CS3 where Alberich says that he joined the 13 Factories to get closer to Epstein's top disciple. It was dismissed as a NISA translation error, but I wonder if it really is meant to be taken at face value.
>>487142912Speculation, but the name of the game in Calvard is hidden disciples and their importance to the plot.>Van Arkride, Barkhorn's >Shizuna, Yun Ka Fai's>Novartis, Esptein's
>>487107837Good. Zin is ugly enough as is, last thing we need is bear like men in these games. Ugly men have no place in trails
Beardy Bear...
>>487135969Very cool
ps4 kuro 2 updated to 1.16. no patch notes
>>487145553Check to see if they changed the Kuro no Kiseki Final Chapter to Kai.
Anies will cry once she finds out that Novartis was an Epstein disciple.
>>487138656>>487138431cute cumdoll wife
>>487143097Imagine these 3 working together. That would be something.
At least Falcom is doing better than Nippon Ichi haha...
>>487146270Not only that, falcom also managed to save NISA
>>487145781checked, it hasn't been changed
>>487145864Novartis was Epstein's top disciple who mysteriously disappeared, leaving Epstein to look after his child. Novartis is Agnes' true great grandfather.
>>487146781Either falcom forgot, or they still consider kai Kuro's final chapter which it is.
>>487145864Speaking of Novartis. Who the fuck is he? How can he create these advanced orbal technologies that astonishes Epstein's three disciples? Don't tell me its bullshit like Shizuna where he's Epstein's hidden disciple or some shit.
>>487146958Or it's just Engrish and they never meant to call it Kuro FC versus just saying that it'll be concluded in Kuro's final chapter.
All games before Kuro were just Kuro prequel CH #
F. Novartis's real name is... FRoy Gramheart-Novartis...
>>487147192He's linked to Epstein in some fashion even if he just fancies himself to be like him. He has the Epstein naming convention as F. Novartis.
man look at how bad Novartis' concept art is. we really dodged a bullet with his final design
>>487147982I prefer my villians to go comically evil
>>487147982i literally look like the second one from the right
>>487147982>maskC...
>>487143097Barkhorn, Ka-fai and Epstein will talk about their problematic but favourite hidden disciples, fufu.
>>487147982>Cool design and mask suit different from normal clothes.>Litterally the most incel ever.Anyone who likes right novartis is gay as fuck.
>>487149264
I’m unashamed to admit I dropped cs1 20 mins in because of him. Seeing an obese character humanized and treated like an actual person disgusts me, especially because he’s hideous. I cant believe Falcom of all companies would be the one to pull this woke garbage, and don’t even get me started on his jew nose.
Who were tailing the SSS and Xin in the Xin in the city quest in Azure?

what's you favourite kuro cover?
Can anyone here decipher what the fuck is going on in this image? I’ve been trying to figure it out for the past 3 months.
>>487153269Walter's checking out Estelle's goods.
so that cube really is related to Van's powers
If Rean pulled off half the bullshit Van did we'd never stop hearing about it, but as always it's okay when Daybreak does itMy favorite is "If Van talked to you you're immune to Almata's magic"

>>487153269Walter: こんあ小娘の映像であの野郎が本当に来やがるのか?Weissmann: 呼んで来ますよ?楽しみですね。I can read but translation is not my forte. Do the rest on your own.
>>487153998>"If Van talked to you you're immune to Almata's magic"did you even finish the game you stupid fucking nigger? Or should I remind you that Rean is a son of a reincarnated emperor of ereboniawho was chosen to pilot super ancient mecha, but also has atransplanted heart that gives him "ogre" powers, but also makes him a sacrifice, but also the last and student of a sword god, but also despite losing control of his ogre powers he never hurts his friends and civilians.
>>487153998>If Rean pulled off half the bullshit Van did>posts one example that can be easily explainedWay too disingenuous, don't you think reanspic?
>>487154396uuuh where can i get estelle's sex video tape asking for a friend
>>487153269This is what Sky SC will be like when they remake the game with Joshua as the MC.
I take it that Kuro 2 assumes that you chose the bracers in Chapter 5?
>>487155232No, they don't reference that choice at all.
>>487145553You can check patch notes on PS4.It's just seemingly some bug with the gourmet points and some progression blocking bug.Tested the PS5 version too and it didn't seem like the performance have been improved anything at all.Rene and Shizuna's s-craft still has tearing, kitchen still tanks framerate and Mirabel is still 30 fps for some reason.
>>487154396Thanks, so she’s having her gangbang tape leaked to Joshua. Huh, wonder who the father is.
>>487153269>>487154396Walter: Think that bastard's gonna show up when he sees a clip of this girl?Weissmann: He'll show up when we call for him. Wait and see, kukuku...Campanella: Can I stop the video yet? It's a total waste of space...Estelle: Joshua... don't look...

The new orbal show "great Zemurian rape off" was a huge success.
>>487155496Fascinating. So Cloud Leopard's PC version has better performance than playstation?And I'm gaming on a gen 2 Ryzen 7- hardly top of the bill.
>>487154701But he still has no such bullshit as "I am immune to the magic of the bad guys just by existing"
>>487158020CLE ports are pretty amazing
>>487154701>>487154865lmao imagine if Rean's background made him not only immune to the curse himself, but anyone he spoke to was also immune.That's what you defend because it's Van
Bestelle mogs every single CS or Kuro heroine without even being a romance option.
>>487158485That's what happened in CS4, there just wasn't any plot justification for it unlike Kuro.
>>487158964lol wat
Pancakes!
>>487159157All of Rean's sycophants were unaffected by the curse. Laura thinking her dad died? Nope nothing came of it. They were all functionally immune because they were Rean's sycophants.
>>487153269More like this?
Eat your tamale and fuck off, Reantaco.
>>487159348Literally zero things in the story gives any credence to this. You literally made that up.And Rean spends the first third of the game being a curse ragemonster.What a shock, CShater knows nothing about CS.
>>487159762It's plot convivence. Kuro wrote a clever reason why people were unaffected during Pandemonium while Cold Steel had it so that they were unaffected because they just were AKA because they liked to suck off Reankek.
>>487159970>Clever reasonLMAO
>>487159157Van is a demon lord of time that's why he isn't affected by the pandemonium, we still don't know how exactly his powers work but the game makes sure to point out that only those who Van knows or speak at least one weren't affected.
>>487160075>Noo, it's okay that Van is able to do crazy shit because his power level is just that high broooo
>>487160040I accept your concession, Reantaco.
>>487160040But it's a consistent reason at least. Van (Vagrants-zion) is affiliated with time, we can bitch about it once Kai explains about demon lords.
>>487159970>clever reasonI give upTrails cultists IQ is less than 40
>>487160387Aren't Kiseki fans known to be really intelligent though?
>>487160319Ignore the favela monkey.
>>487160281>>487160319Oh, I can just say things and I win? OK, CS is one of the best stories ever told, alongside the Iliad and Odyssey and Lord of the Rings.
>>487160813>Seething about Kuro writing circles around Cold ShitKek, you just need to accept your arc is shitty, kid.
>>487160813whatever you want to believe
>>487160965Sorry, what's that 50ker?
>>487160813CS vs KusoBoth are trash
>>487161096All because the Rean manlet manbabies abandoned the series when it stopped having a shitty self insert.
>>487160813LotR sucks
>>487161096You realize this is the biggest self-own ever, right? Kuso sold poorly because Corked Shart was so bad. 50k is the result of 3 abysmal pieces of shit in a row.
>>487161690CS is a cheap lowkey TLoR ripoff for weebs
Do you think a Brazilian stole his girlfriend? Or maybe beat him up sometime?Just wondering what makes one so utterly obsessed
>>487162258Cold Steel 4 sold 1.2 million copies. Kuro sold 50k.
>>487162467Not really. Cold Steel is too political in the nitty gritty power balance sense. Honestly, I'm starting to miss having good hearted heroes defeat a great evil, considering that everyone has to subvert it nowadays to the point it has become the new cliche, and even Kuro leans into it a lot (even though its portrayal of gray morality is absolute dogshit)
>>487162527A Brazilian Rean Cosplayer beat him up and stole his GF
>>487162530Cold Steel 4 sold like 85k week 1, and it took 6 years and a worldwide release on every platform imaginable and 50%+ discounts to reach that number. Your brain doesn't work properly.
>>487162732Nah. Cold Steel is about good and evil.
>>487162920CS4 sold like 100k first week. Twice the amount of Kuro.
>>487163378Yes, exactly. And Reverie sold like ass because CS4 was so bad, and then Daybreak sold even worse because Reverie was also bad. Now you're getting it.
>>487119763Well no fuckin wonder Agnes never gets it.
>>487163508>Reverie sold like ass because CS4 was so badIt only sold 10k less. Your narrative is destroyed.
>>487163753Almost 25k less. Kuro 2, on the other hand, sold more than Kuro 1 in the first week. What does that tell you? Kuro good.
Gaybreak... good?
>>487149437bro what
>>487164285>CS4 getting that manyCuckshitki fagboys are INSANE.
<<C>> Epstein...
<<C>>ao...
>>487164378still got mogged by boomershit
>>487163907>Almost 25k lessNope, about 13k less. Whereas Kuro 2 was lambasted in the shareholder meeting for noticeably selling less than Kuro 1 past the first week mark selling a few hundred extra copies.
>>487164589Boomer franchise, kiddo
>>487119438For me it was just whoever I used the most in action mode
>>487164285>make the survey on the first days of Daybreak's release >Daybreak 2 isn't even out officially in english Fufu, what a fair survey.
>>487164632and that's a good thingt. skyboomer
Quatre is a character that only women over the age of 30 enjoy or like.
>>487164810Groomers...
>>487164285Well of course, CS fans are spoiled for choice. Also Kusoeaters keep shitting on Azure too
Coprophile StansCSHoly shit.
>>487164895Only Cold Shitters shit on Aokino.
>>487164285>sky and crossbell win againDaybreak would also eat up a lot of the Cold Shit votes if it had been out and people had played it.
>>487165354>sky and crossbell win againSky: 46 Crossbell: 46Cold Steel: 55Cold Steel wins.
Will it finally be her turn? Feels like if she doesn't get showcased this week, she just won't be at all.Assuming that she will, I wonder if Falcom will reveal her real name, like what they did with Shizuna. Any bets?
>>487165627Crossbell is the clear winner, consisting of only 2 games but still assraping all the rest. Cold Shit is an embarrassment for getting that few votes with 5 games.
>>487166152>Less votes>Clear winnerThat's cope.>Cold Shit is an embarrassment for getting that few votes with 5 games.I didn't include Hajimari's 8 votes since Falcom don't consider it to be Cold Steel. But Cold Steel is such a beloved arc that every game in it could be someone's favorite, so the votes were split.
>>487164285Ao/Azure is also my favorite game in the series. I think the combat mechanics, the party dynamic, and the constantly escalating story where awful shit keeps happening (along with all the cool shit) just makes it a super exciting game. I dunno, it's hard to really pinpoint all the little things that make it fantastic, but it's still one of the best JRPGs I've ever played in my life.I also like Sky, Cold Steel, and Kuro of course, but Azure just fucks from beginning to end. I don't know what else to say and the thread's probably discussed it to death, but it's god tier for a reason.
>>487165693I think she'll get announced later on, she seems to be a pretty important character and falcom doesn't really want to spoil her backstory right now.
>>487166392>twice as many games as crossbell>only 9 more votes totalLOL SELF OWN
>>487166668I liked Ao until the ending and the final confrontation with Mariabell and Grimwood, what a shitty way to end the game.
>>487164285cold steel two yay!!!!
>>487166905Why would number of games matter in this case? It's not sales. If Crossbell was 4 games, Ao wouldn't have so many votes.
>>487166668Ao is inconsistent, but it has tons of "holy shit" moments that elevate the game. Falcom sucks at creating tension, but for whatever reason, the entire Crossbell arc was really fucking good at it.
>>487167420On the contrary, Crossbell would get even more votes with more games. You lost.
>>487164285This just shows everything /fg/ said about Sen was wrong, Rean wins again.
>>487166668tio sex
yep, clearly the Brazilian shitstains has woken up because you can really tell by the decline in the quality of posts.
>>487167715Crossbell's votes would be split with more games.
>>487168157It would siphon even more votes from the other arcs. Cold Shit has 5 games and barely has more votes than Sky and Crossbell, which is funny.
yeah things really declined when the cold steel hate came out of nowhere
Rean cultists are insane.
Su-chan and Na-chan! Cute and canon!
>>487168313>It would siphon even more votes from the other arcs. It would only take votes from Zero and Ao away.
>>487147982>That 2nd concept artWhy the fuck is Falcom so addicted to maskfaggotry? What the fuck is wrong with them>?
>>487167917too bad she'll probably end up with that fag Jona.
Mein Schwarzer.
>>487168776Deeply flawed logic.
>>487168845That's her eternal friendzone slave.
Ban San.
>>487169070People who have their favorite arc already made their decision. It's only a matter of which game within that arc they prefer.
>>487163508Meanwhile Daybreak II was FACTUALLY the ONLY game in the series Falcom outright admitted sold below their expectations. If Kusoshit was really that good like what Vanshiteaters like to peddle, both it and Daybreak II would've sold better especially since Daybreak is supposed to be the start of a new arc and a jumping point into the series.

>>487154396It's supposed to be 飛んで来ますよ?
What day do the famitsu scans usually leak/get released?
>>487158020Falcom didn't give a crap about the PS5 release for Kuro 1 and 2.They just took it up to 4K and then didn't give a crap about how it affected the performance.When playing on Playstation, it's PS4 version on PS5.Hopefully the PS5 versions will run fine on PS5 Pro, if it releases.Thankfully Ys X was fine on PS5, but it's a switch game.The most weird part was a 30 fps camera pan on a cutscene, but that was probably a programing error.Remains to see how Kai will be on PS5.All the screenshots are now taken from the PS5 build instead of PS4 build like they were from Kuro 1 and 2 so maybe they will give the PS5 version a bit more attention.But I'm ready to play on the PS4 version if I don't see any major improvements for Kai.We have yet to see 60 fps footage for Kai, but the 30 fps footage is already dropping frames so it doesn't look promising.
>>487170582Wednesday/Thursday
>>487170582Leaks about it's content is around 9 hours before the release of the digital magazine which releases on Thursdays 00:00 JST.Low res scan can show up a few hours before release, but hiqh res scans are usually 10 to 30 min after the magazine's digital release.
>>487170604Falcom's a lower effort dev than Compile Heart.
>>487166668Tio kissing
>>487171725kissu with tio
>>487171445cute and canon
Tio is built for loving
Tio will return in Kai, without the silly cat ears and look like an adult for once.
>>487174218baby making loving
>>487158321CLE is definitely improving. The great leader himself must have threatened them to fix their shit.
Tio is definitely the best loli heroine in the series. Altina and Millium fucking suck and Fie is bland. Altina's entire existence is basically revolved around rean. I kinda want to see what falcom will do with Jolda, she's stoic, but not "I'm cumdoll, we don't have feelings" type and she seems to have a conflict with her brother who is the only family she has. I really hope she won't get Altina's treatment where she can't exist without Van's headpats.
>>487175269Tio isn't a loli, she was born in 1190. She is 18 to 19 years old as of Kai no Kiseki. She is an adult now.
>>487175903I meant at the time when zero/ao took place.
Growing up was a mistake.
>>487176068You cannot turn back the clock, she is an adult now.
>>487175269>I really hope she won't get Altina's treatment where she can't exist without Van's headpats.Hopefully not since it'd be a pretty big character assassination, and it also wouldn't really be development since she's just be trading Ixs for Van. Having a little girl latched to him also doesn't fit Van's style.
>>487175269Millium is based.
reminder, that most of the lolis are random npcs. You only got Jora, Yume, Feri, KeA and Shizuku left. KeA and Shizuku are now 14 years old and fast approaching adulthood.
