love this nigga
This is lazy. What outfits should be in the game
I wonder how they'll adapt Renne as a sexual creature now that she is a woman. She has to deal with the conflict of her trauma versus her own sexual awakening and sexual attraction to Van. I'd be kino if she realised that she always wanted cock, even back when she was a child. mm yes that would be very nicelove renny

>>496958537Wow I didn't know Van and Aaron will join Ouroboros in Kai 2
Fie booba
>>496958284Concept outfits would be nice.>>496958293They should have saved Renne for a character that was not already invested in a romance or with a psuedo harem.>>496958439Fuck Rean, she should blow me instead.
>>496958854Beautiful breasts
>Fie still has breast envyEmma really did a number on her huh?
>>496958857>They should have saved Renne for a character that was not already invested in a romance or with a psuedo harem.Indeed, they have been using her plenty of time through the series that I thought they were saving her to be one of the main heroines or main waifu in future games, not just a side one.
>>496958836Maybe Aaron will finally go stronk and unleash his Tai transformation if he joins
>>496958284Renne CS saga outfit
>>496957957Renne's master plan is that once Agnes and Van get together she will cuck Agnes and fuck Van in front of her. That's why she's shilling Agnes to Van.
KURT NARDIN
>>496958854Calvard era Fie is finally getting a good fanservice costume. About time. Took them long enough.
>>496958208it's hard to not find her incredibly cute
>>496959148Peak Renne
My guess is that this "Reset" won't go back very far and that the new objective will be to attack the cube before August 1209 which is when the cube was schedule to begin the reset. I don't think they're going to seriously reset the timeline back years. Agnes will be gone initially though.
>>496958284This one. They fucked up the recolour
>>496959321Knowing Kingdom Heart, Agnes will be there but using a hood in a mysterious organization, then at some point Van and everyone else will remember her.
>*makes mcburnfags seethe by simply existing*
>>496959148>>496959376Good idea. So it's not happening.
>>496959494McCree
Su-chan, Na-chan, and La-chan!
>>496959069It sucks that Falcom can only write women being attracted to the main male character, Renne really did not deserve that.I am not even opposed to her being all over a player character but she should be the only one if they are going that route.>>496959148Agreed, would be nice to see her with perfect boots again.>>496959598Unfortunately, they are far too lazy.>>496959615
>Trail series will be 90% done after Kai no Kiseki>But Kai no kiseki will be a sub trilogy long gameimagine
>>496959625>they will stop Kevin from salting again>and again
>>496959321>attack the cube before August 1209They need something really damm strong to do that though. Nukes and Excalibur didn't do anything.
>>496959231>fagnes goes through a time loop just to get cucked againlmao
I'm mad they relegated Lapis to a support character. Give her the suitcase axe back.
>>496959148Her racing queen outfit turns me on...
>>496959765Well Kondo did say that Kiseki will be at 90% with Kai, but he never said that Kai will be one game haha.
>Hmmm today I will imagine Rixia giving me a paizuri
>>496959916Thats our Kondo
Cao will win in Kai 2
>>496959224>well known to everyone as the Angel of Slaughter>Bracers haven't arrested her yet even to this day
why was wazy so weak as a playable character despite being a dominion
>>496960115Caussius' name is really poweful
>Gramheart's last hope is asking the guy who singlehandedly decimated the army a few years back for helpHaha...
>agnes asks van to fire herwhy did this make me so sad
They will reset to pre-countdown time so they can get more time to deal with the cube
>>496959773Just tie her up and torture her instead!
>Kai's ending mechakino
>>496960156Holding back™
Trails in the Sky remake is just gonna pull an FF7 remake and end up actually being a sequel than a remake
>>496960349godamn i hate what a cuck swin is at least try and get a look
>>496960115>Rufus walks around in broad daylight
Today I will remind them.
>>496960224>pre-countdown timeThat's basically the end of the CS saga, tho. Would they really go back an arc?
>>496960115I guess by the time it would have been safe to try it nobody wanted to arrest Cassius' "daughter".
>>496960224Gramheart won't launch his operation in the next loop and they'll try to fight the reset on the day that it's schedule to occur (for maximum drama).
>>496960431Why would he need to do that now that he has his Na-chan?
I fucking hate Celine
>>496960518Maybe if we consider what YKF said.>>496960595This also is possible. Maybe the demon shit can help
>>496960616Because he's supposed to be a man but I guess Nadia keeps his testicles in her purse.
>>496960629Emmafag...
>>496960629For a second I thought I was in the fire emblem general and I would get angry but you're talking about that shitty cat

>>496960787Cute canon...
>>496959814That's where the demon lords will come into play.
>>496960747Su-chan is a gigachad!
>>496960787We need more cooler costumes for the guys.
>>496960787Vol 3 will be Rion, Kevin, and Rufus getting waiter costumes? And Lapis + 3 more girls getting bunny suits?
it has been one weekIs there no DLC story announcement?

>>496960787Sexy, lewd, skimpy, revealing costumes for the girls and smart, stylish, modest, respectable uniforms for the guys.

>>496962034Zin and Walter really got whipped
>>496962208I want her to fart on my face.
All of you /fg/ anons disgust me.
>>496962347
So in Kuro 2 act 3, why do the Genesis time travel with the gang after they get one back and go back in time? I know this arc is all about time and the time septerrion, but this feels like a really weird contrivance to do.
>>496960156He's one of Azure's best party members in late game because his S-Craft does stupid damage though?
Fishing!
Feri is so lucky she's going to be stacked in a few years.
>>496962967why do people keep saying this is future feri
>>496963015The strand of hair on her cheek matches and same skin tone.
Got a minor lore update on Jurai. It seems that Jurai and Erebonia reached an agreement, Jurai would have a referendum every 10 years to decide if they wished to remain part of Erebonia.
>>496963545Nice
>>496960349>still no webm
>>496963697This style looks awfully familiar, is this from Abunai Zeiniku? I think that was his name, the guy who did a few Kiseki rape cgs. Last one Was Crossbell something and oddly enough it begins with Sen III Altina.
>rixia stops the mafia from suiciding>this implies that each route has a unique scene for saving his life>now autism will force me to watch all 4this means i have to replay the ikaruga path even though i gain nothing from doing sofuck you falcom
>>496963697I can't believe Kevin would do this...
Do you think the salt pale incident happened on every reset?
>>496964017I think -a- disaster happens every loop. Not necessarily the Salt Pale but some unknown force fucking up some part of Zemuria every single time without fail.
bros do we know why radiant historia's desertification is fucking up the east as yet
The Iska Empire will exist in the next loop and the East will be a lush green region.
>>496964256yeah kamala harris stole the east's water with a time machine
>>496964393That would be interesting
>>496964412Hahaha
>>496963485Towacute
>>496960468I don't see DLC for Elaine in the shop, how can you get it?!
>>496964393>next game will immediately start in Iskahaha that's our Falcom...
>>496964507My office...
ronnie bros... I added taikun to the party in kuro and he killed himself while walking on the field no wonder aaron doesn't transform
>>496965060I think that picture is from the dengeki stream where they showed off all the outfits for characters that were playable in the demo. The elaine one probably comes out next week
why is none of that shit in the game already
>>496964602Kneeling Cao alone makes it worth it
>>496964602Is that Ragun?
>>496961153It's probably Swin and not Rion. And Elaine and Nadia will likely be part of the next volume as well
>>496965671No it's his cousin Lagoon
So how schizo will Van be in Kuro 3 after how Kai ended?
>>496965594money
>>496964602rixiabros...
>>496966514He will freak out and try contacting every single person who was associated with Agnes only to see her existence being denied.The scene will end with Van feeling down during the rain. Then he will meet Dingo who will tell him he also remembers.The two of them will form the Grendel duo to take back Agnes
>>496965436That is just retarded, most people already complete the game at that time, and won't buy the DLC.... why not release them day1? Kondo should retire
>>496966881falcom bad

maybe though... falcom, good?

>>496969325Man I can't wait for the sales to be released
ok /fg/ could the following characters beat ragun 1 vs 1?>shizuna>gouran>kasim
>>496969537I really would not have expected Towa to wear such a revealing pair, it seems for once I cannot complain about something Angelica did.
>>496968609Nice butt
>>496969325REAN SAVED KISEKI AGAIN!!!
On what basis were you a RAT believer?
>>496969768basically every playable in kai could do it. maybe he could beat agnes before she got her powers
>>496969768>ShizunaHell no.>Gouran Hell no>Kasim Maybe.
>>496970205Bad bait
>>496970359maybe he could beat the rat before he his grendel and altina. really drawing a blank other than that though.
>>496970184i wasn't a believer i kneel
>>496970439>>496970359
>>496969929Yea, that or Towa has great taste.
>>496970184I predicted Agnes would be the 7th anguis before Kuro came out, back in 2021.
>>496970651are you gonna name a character that he can beat then?
>>496970184Emma cannot defeat the RATIt's over...
Five (5) (V) (Go) (五) (ご) cute facts about Agnèscutest1. She is canonically fuckable!2. She is mai Kiseki-fu!!3. I love her!!!4. Agnèscutest!!!!
>>496970970She.Will.Win.
>>496970790Every playable Kai character
>>496970970What's the next phase of Agnes' plan to obtain Van's love now that she ascended to a higher existence?
>>496970736Half of me is thinking it is a mod, I never used her in Sen II, at lest not in that outfit.
I predicted Rene was Grendel Zolga before Kuro 2 came out... so close... I was off by one game.
>>496971236he should have been grendel zolga, someone else should have been grendel blanco
>>496971204I hope it's not a mod
>>496971236I predicted the time loop and Septerrion of time since CS4 ending in 2019
>>496971185Send an endless supply of sweets to him in the form of something like the salt pale. Except it’s the sugar pale this time.
>>496968609Towa is showing bumcrack
>>496971337I would check but I cannot ustilies Comrade V's talents very well and I was intending to sleep soon.
Time loop was obvious ever since the words eternal recurrence plan was uttered. You don't need to be particularly smart to figure it out or predict it.
>>496970736We need more Arts autists
>>496971448Maybe try next time.
>>496971740Assuming someone else does not confirm it, I can check when I wake up, sure.
>>496971673Wonder if next game will be just 1 loop or multiple loops.
>>496971204https://store.steampowered.com/app/773110/The_Legend_of_Heroes_Trails_of_Cold_Steel_II__All_Casual_Clothes/
was the guy who leaked xseed doing sky remake talking out of his ass or nah
>>496969768yes, no, maybe
>>496972121We had known fora year that falcom were doing either a remake or remaster of sky trilogy.
>>496972121they're talking to both Xseed and NISA about it
>>496971989We already had Kuro 2 which technically has several loops and the game is shit
>>496969768He can’t be that strong if they managed to throw him in a cell in chinkland in the past. I would say Shizuna probably could, the chink couldn’t because he’s just a hack and kasim might depending on if he actually just takes it seriously and doesn’t just stand still charging up laser for a moment and then dies because ragun is faster
SHE LITERALLY STOLE REAN'S TECHNIQUEWhy is it called the Black God One Blade? They said she's an unofficial student? So is it an offshoot of the Eight Leaves? Because Black God One Blade is significantly more menacing.
>>496972768She created a copy.>why/what is Black God One Blade?Still a mystery. Eight Leaves was based on Black God.
>>496972768Find out in Kai 2
>>496972250Shizuna ain't beating Ragun on her own. You're delusional.
How Falcom let trails become a storytelling joke. Every character mentioned in the lore now has to come back to present through some stupid plot device. Book characters are now real in the story rather than simply stories within the lore of the game. 3 and 9 sucks. Characters who die come back again. All of them There are several shock value moments that have no impact today. Most of the characters' deaths either didn't happen or were undone.
>>496972495>braindamaged poster didn't play the games
>>496958854I love how freely their breasts are hanging in these outfits.
>>496973027Haha...
>>496973053I haven’t played kai, no.
>>496969768Only Kasim stands a chance.>>496973027The story has been a joke since Ao.
>>496973027Remember when we met the character Cornelia who dies in the book but is alive in reality. Trails in a nutshell. Michy or something like that.
I predicted that grendel was van before kuro came out and none of you fuckers believed me
with kai 2 falcom will have made 4 games with 95% the same assetseven for falcom, this is scummyat least with cs3 they made a whole brand new set of towns and dungeonskai 2 will literally have you spend 50% of the game in edith for a fourth time, unrealfalcom unironically needs new management
>>496973027i would keep all of that to remove mishy from kiseki
>>496973282Yakuza players spent like 1000 games in the same small section of a town you faggots are just ungrateful you get new maps at all

>>496960862Safe horny tumblr retard taste>>496961083*Sexier>>496961849Genuine question; why are you so scared of fanservice of the guys? Does it make you feel insecure knowing you’ll never match up to them? M
>>496973478Yakuza games are fun and they always change the map and bring new things unlike falcom slop
Falcom's cities look like they're straight out of Koikatsu Party
Do we really have to wait til the artbook comes out to get a Kondo interview about the game?
>>496973515Means DLC is maybe coming
>>496973538>Yakuza games are funonly 0 is fun and only 4 has a decent plot (yes even with the rubber bullet thing)>they always change the maplmao, rofl even
Today is sales day.Will Kai have 50k?
>>49697388725 at best
>>496973887the fact that this is cs3 2.0 might not even get the 50k to show upthen again rean dicksuckers have been hyping up his "route" endlessly so maybe that can make up the difference
>>496973946Yea and it ended up the shortest with most of it being set up.
>>496973478Okay but the last 4 Yakuza games VS Kuro/Kai?
>>496973887I expect like 2000 with how they didn’t market the game at all
>>496974113yea that was really weird
>>496973887>0 marketing>already declining sales with each game>3rd filler game in a row and japs are pissed so the game doesn't even have word of mouthi'll be surprised if it even hits 40k
Kuro 2 patch made up of mtl and a random YouTube play through bros… soon…
>>496973478Kamurocho is actually good though
For the last time... I will remind themThis image will change in some hours... Forever...
>>496974436You aren’t even the guy that posts this usually

Remember Altair
>>496973515DLC or potentially something that was cut.
>>496974507haha... maybe that will be the 1 (one) new town they add to kai 2
Kai will sell 75k
>>496974513I hope it's DLC.
>next game takes place in the East >but 500 years in the past>characters have to save the wind/water septerrions>meanwhile Sky remakes in progress, with a few "changes">in both sets of games unknown figures either help or hinder the heroes (fufu)>Kai 2 in 2030>Ban-san and co time traveling gimmick reveals it was them>now the team has the power of the other septerrions and wrecks the wisdom cube>Kondo raughs to the bank
>>496973515my guess is that they planned to give all 3 routes different battle themes but then decided against it, probably because the other routes aren't really long enough to justify it
Which city from Kuro 1/2 didn't appear in Kai?
>>496974507>>496974594We're going back to Langport & you'll like it!
>>496974685>Kondo raughs to the bankto apply for bankruptcy?
>>496974758messeldam, langport, oracion
>>496974758Langport, Messeldam, and Oracion, right?
Falcom baited me hard with Kai. From the screenshots I thought we were going to spend more time outside of the cities again but no, they really did make another fucking game where 95% of the time is spend inside city maps.
I love my husbando
>>496974917haha....
>>496974758Creil
I can’t hold back anymore… I LOVE CAO LEE HE IS ON MY MIND 24/7 AND I NEED HIM. EVERY TIME HE SAYS EVERYTHING IS EXACTLY ACCORDING TO KEIKAKU AND FUFU I GET TURNED ON
>>496973887It'll flop. Rean killed Kuro.
>>496975113Most of the game is Van's.
>>496975140Nice attempt at misinformation, reantaco. When Kai flops we will be here 24/7 to remind you.
i hope kondo gets grilled for turning calvard into another 4 game arc after promising that he wouldn't
>>496975332>e-everyone is a reanfagYou're not very smart are you arc war nigger
Kondo killed it by not marketing the fucking game
>>496975461yea why did he do that
>>496975461I don't think the game was even marketed all that much by CLE either.
>>496975461Not that it matter since the cultist here will just blame it to rean for killing the game.
>>496975641Rean does get blamed for everything, doesn't he?
>>496975641That's why you ignore those retards
>>496975691Of course, people would rather kill themselves rather than blaming kondo.
>>496975761That's extremely retarded

>>496975641>>496975691>>496975716Only one anon said that. And other said that the sales wont fall because the Rean cultist buying the Game.Are you retarded or a bot?
I've been watching a hard mode stream of Kai and some bosses go 10+ turns in a row. What the fuck is Falcom smoking? I can't even imagine what nightmare mode is like this time.
Sex with len senpai
>>496976338They just want Van, Rean, and Kevin to suffer.
Genuinely hate rean
>Genuinely hate rean
I would be surprised if Kai sold even 1000 copies with Rean dragging it down.

Dead thread. how did it happen?
>>496978357not enough towa is my guess haha
>>496976278>Only one person>/fg/This place worships kondo and demonizes rean on the daily basis.
I love kiseki girls speaking seriously or dramatically in cutscenes while they are dressed up in dlc coomer outfits. It just feels right.
>>496978423It's called being genuinely retarded.
>>496978497me too
>>496979435This is an angel.
>>496979723We know, Rean
>>496975641>Not that it matter since the cultist here will just blame it to rean for killing the game.Why are all reanniggers ESL?
do you want kiseki spin off games
Just started Cold Steel and had an actual Leonardo DiCaprio pointing at the screen moment when Sara said “That’s our Rean!”
>>496980224Kek. I'm currently replaying Zero
>>496978568Hearing Juna go on an emotional outburst about Crossbell pride while looking like the most ridiculous cosplaying bimbo exhibitionist fills me with an almost indescribable delight. I really wish I could experience this more often in life.
>>496980294Was surprised at how good the Crossbell games ended up being after I really didn’t vibe with the start of Zero. Azure was especially great.
>>496980314Kek based>>496980420I've haven't touched Crossbell in years, so it kinda feels new. I forgot so much.
Kinda wish these games had an English dub, though. I know they casted some Crossbell guys in CS.
Good morning. Did you preorder Ys X yet, anons?
>>496980835Good morning Shizunasis. No sorry
>>496980835no but i might pirate it day 1 if i have nothing else to do
>>496980835No, I'll just be getting the Digital Deluxe when it comes out. But it'll be time to finally finish my VIII replay. Would have finished yesterday if I didn't like the idea of not finishing all raids and hunts, but you need to grind for the ultimate raid on Inferno because it throws 5 of the Silent Tower boss at you, with 3 of those being at once.
>>496981346Are raids mandatory in Ys 8? I'm still near the start, and the game said I don't usually need to do them.
What's the usual time for sales report to drop?
>>496980873>>496981085>>496981346On one hand, I am happy a NISA game is flopping. On the other hand, I don’t want Adol‘s game to flop. >>496981346Replaying Ys VIII is always good. You better have been using Dana as much as you can?!
>>496981793I will probably get it after reviews come out
I forgot these two showed early
>>496981406You probably need to do about like 5 or 6 raids in one playthrough. But there's about 18 in total including the optional ones.But something to consider is that in order to get the true ending of Ys VIII, you need 200 reputation. It should be fine as long as you do everything else, I think if you skip the optional raids and hunts you'd miss out on like 70 reputation. I have 290 right now so that would still push you over 200. That said, even if you skip raids I think you can still play them in raid practices way after the fact to get ranks easily.
So after beating the game and going back and rewatching some moments. Is Rene actually in love with Elaine and this is where it's going between the 3 of them?Him taking Van to space mostly felt like him trying to beat him up in frustration. Also in Kuro 1 or 2 (don't remember) we get multiple mentions of Rene dating someone in Aramis and then having some other girlfriend. We never get more than this, but in retrospect it could mean that he was trying to surpress his feelings for Elaine. Highly doubt that it's his main motivation, but we will probably explore that in Kai 2 + it gives more relevance to Elaine, which she desperately needs.
>>496982338>I think you can still play them in raid practices way after the fact to get ranks easily.So if I do enough of raid practices and all side quests, I can get the true ending?
>>496982369if true why the did it not come up before
>big 20th anniversary game>another 95% fillerfest where nothing happens
>>496982782>>big 20th anniversary gameHaha....maybe that's the Sky FC remake
>>496982782>CS2 was the 10th anni GameWas It better or worse
>>496982782Could have been 99.9% like Kuro 2 haha...
>>496982475I think so. I do them as they come up, as it puts Castaway Village into raid mode where the music changes, and there's a raid symbol on your HUD wherever you go.
>>496983007Alright. Thanks.
the worst part is that you know kai 2 will be cs4 2.0 and also be filler up until act 3
Haha....I'm speechless
Every Trails game is pure filler. I thought this was obvious by now
Nigga SC is pure filler for like 90% of the game and so is Azure. And these are the "good games" according to this fanbase. The series hasn't changed.
sex with ulrica
are ronnie agnes and feri the only people who actually got new scrafts kek
>play RPG series known for being lengthy and having a lot of filler and worldbuilding >filler and worldbuildingwooooow
>mc for three (3) games>he's still a mystertyWhy
Van is secretly an Enforcer and has been the entire time
>didn't add a single new shard skill or quartz since kuro 1>no one got new crafts, they just updated the animations of (some) old ones>solution to the games being too easy is to just make enemies heal themselves constantly and cancel your buffs instantly>only addition to the field combat is some stupid time stop gimmick>bringing back shitty ass brave orders that completely invalidate buff spells/abilities because youve just given upwhy do falcom refuse to improve the gameplay
>>496983979Grendel's second s-craft from Kuro 2 wasn't touched up at all in Kai to the point that it still shows Van's old design when using it.https://youtu.be/ACmUdx6IwtI?si=K3vHZAfYHDHF3Ex1&t=54
>>496984245lmaojesus i swear falcom have just gotten lazier
>>496984245They didn't care for this game at all, did they
29k PS418k PS5
>>496984245I can't believe this is real.
>>496984245>Van didn't get a 3rd S-Craft despite the fact he's supposed to be the protagonist>His 2nd S-Craft wasn't even touched from the last game to the point it still uses his old costumeFalcom really don't want anyone to like Van do they? They refuse to let him be cool.
>>496984245Is falcom competing with compile heart(neptunia) for being the laziest?
>>496958095>43k43k>43k>43kOHNONONONONONONONONONON
the sales aren't up yet ignore shitposters
tick tock kaifags
what is the point of salesfagging when we already know the game won't do so hot and the obvious reason why?
Kaisisters, is the game>another game where arts dominate and crafts have no place in higher levels>crafts and arts are balanced with the former being actually usable
If the game sells badly, it's Van's fault. If the game sells well, it's thanks to Rean. If the game sells badly, all of the sales it did have would have been lower if not for Rean. If the game sells well, it would have done better if not for Van.
>>496985448Reanspics have been claiming that Rean will save the sales
>>496985494This but the opposite for each
>>496985525>believing trolling retards
If the game sells badly, it's because of the lack of Estelle If the game sells well, it's thanks to Kevin
>>496985448So we can shitpost against characters/characterfags(reanfags/vanfags) we dont like.
If Kai even does 30k I'll be impressed honestly, felt like the game had 0 marketing. But then again it probably cost peanuts to make it
>>496985654considering how many corners they cut with kai i don't think they spent a lot on itlike even for falcom the asset reuse was insane
>>496984274>>496984308>>496984697>>496984961>>496985012I found out a few threads ago, too, and couldn't believe it either. Falcom is way too lazy now.
Agnès will rape Van
You can't get raped by someone that doesn't exist anymore.
i want this series to be over so i can never think about falcom again
Hm? You wanted a remake of the entire series? Coming right up?
>>496983979>solution to the games being too easy is to just make enemies heal themselves constantly and cancel your buffs instantlyHow is this a bad thing again? Spamming buffs into a critical s craft is the most overused strategy in all Trails games so Falcom addressing it already improves the gameplay by a lot.
>>496986063why even have buffs if bosses just immediately cancel them
>>496986091What do you think the new mechanics like ZOC is for?
>>496986063/fg/ is the same place that got filtered when the DKs had slightly different gameplay. They can't handle gameplay changing, even for the better.
Does the whole van kiting enemies while risette/quatre uses shield craft or someone spam aegis shield still work in kai?I know this anon >>496983979 says about cancelling buff but i'm not sure if van's HATE UP is a removable debuff for enemies.
>>496983979>didn't add a single new shard skill or quartz since kuro 1This actually drives me fucking insane. Kuro 1's quartz system feels like a alpha version of what it should be but apparently Falcom sees 0 issue with it and think it's complete. They seriously have not changed a single thing about it since Kuro 1 or added anything at all to it. Like man I don't give a fuck what fancy field transformations or team up attacks you add if the fundamental progression systems of the game are just shit.
>>496986687They balanced the shard skills this time at least. I think almost all of them got nerfed.
>>4969868523 games of the exact same skills and quartz is utterly insane. Even if they nerfed Executioner, Defender and Ark feather I almost guarantee you they're still the only ones actually worth using.
>>496986687Kuro 1 has 1 director and 2 guys working on the Game design.Kuro 2 and Kai has no director and only 1 guys working on the Game design while working on Ys X and other falcom Game.Is not that they don't see a problem, is that they don't have manpower or direction to finish it
>>496987240Then fuck them. If they don't want to put effort into the games at all then they deserve to flop.
>>496987240>they don't have manpower or direction to finish itThen delay the games or hire more people.
>>496987240They have a team working on a remake that isn't necessary unless its Kai's sequel. They do have enough men.
>>496987240if falcom doesn't have enough people to do the jobs then why the fuck are they making multiple games at once and want to start releasing twice a year?either hire more people or fucking release less games
>problem is either kondom/falcom>people will just blame van/rean on why the game tankedWhat a weird cult.
>>496987471That's dumb arc war fags & shitpostinig. Ignore it
>>496987471i blame kondo all the timekondo is the ceo, the man in charge. kondo tries to pass things off like it's not his fault but falcom is a small company so you know everything either gets his direct approval or he puts retards in charge and lets them do whatever they want. either way, he's responsible for it all.
>>496987471I've been saying Falcom need their entire management replaced for years.
Remember when arcs were complete in two or three games?
Kondo is a genius, not a single man has managed to achieve what he has.
>>496987680the whole series never should have had anything more than a trilogy at the absolute extreme most, the majority of the arcs should have just been duologieserebonia does not justify 5 games, calvard does not justify 4 (probably 5) games
>>496987471You can't blame Kondo when Kato still has influence in the company.
>>496987757Falcom could maybe justify them if we actually get to explore the entire country. Erebonia has 5 games and we still didn't get to explore most of the western side, and Calvard also has 4 more cities that probably won't get explored either.
I knew Agnes reminded me of someone...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQMR9QEWRig
>>496987757Reverie is more of an arcless game. But Cold Steel still should have been 3 games instead of 4, and unless they really stretch out Kai across more than 2 games, Calvard should have been a duology.
>>496987680>>496987757>>496988047REUSING ASSETS
>>496987359>>496987414The switch team probably is to stop the sales fall and gain new fans.Outside that, is a stupid move for falcom, they delay too much TX2 and pad this Kiseki arc too much with filler , so It ends Up with many project being released in a short timespam(same problem Ubisoft is having)
>>496988114>Reverie is more of an arcless gameWe've been through this. It's an ED8 game unambiguosly.
the minute kuro 2 ended i knew calvard would be 4 gamesfalcom always makes these games in pairs, they will never just release a game on its own unless it's like 3rd or hajimari and it's like 98% reused assetskuro 2 did nothing to advance or conclude the stories of calvard, which meant kuro 3 would have to follow and if kuro 3 exists then kuro 4 would also have to exist given how falcom always develop these games. and i was right.
>>496988297>they will never just release a game on its own unless it's like 3rd or hajimari and it's like 98% reused assetsKai is 98% reused assets.
I miss Unisuga so muchhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HvBla5NUlvk
Calvard will end in kai, just in a DLC, haha
>>496988297At least with CS3 they made whole new towns, whole new dungeons, redid every single craft, redid the entire soundtrack. Kai is literally 90% reused shit from Kuro 1 and 2. Even large amounts of the music in the game is reused from Kuro 1 and 2.
>>496988208Nta, but they would have given it the same branding as the other 4 if that's how Falcom felt about it.
>>496988208That doesn't really matter. Doesn't make it a Cold Steel game. That's why material lists it separate to Cold Steel and even closer to Crossbell sometimes.
i was excited when they showed off the reworked crafts but watching the kai stream and seeing how little of the games crafts they actually redid was so bleak i think think this might honestly be falcoms laziest game yet (until the next calvard game my god i seriously can't believe we have 4 games of these assets)
DOESNT MATTER.REAN BADKONDO/FALCOM DID NOTHING WRONG
>>496988397At least we have Kinga now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iuJWecXUOo
>>496988173I agree that the biggest problem at falcom could be fixed with a competent scope managing director. if they want to keep such a wide game scope they absolutely cannot skimp on writing. the games need to be competently written, and that means you need like 1 or two lead writers, not a bunch trying to jam everything together. theyre the real director, just without the social autism chops to do that job, the director then handles managing what needs to be propped up around their 2 game story arc and then things move on to something else. but like most dinosaur conservative management systems, the problem has way more to do with decision making from kondom down filters into a shit show conga line. we saw that with the excessive ammount of harem shit in CS 4, I gaurentee you no coomer wanted that at falcom, it was not only a TON of extra work, some of them might have even worked on the storylines and characters in those games and didn't want their work to be overturned so kondom could choose bonding events with every previous girl in the series. then everything in the game had to be twisted to account for this including man hours, which contributed to sen 4 being a trainwreck. Kai is the same way but on a grand scale with TX Sky remake, and ys XI. theres too much going on and projects are getting too ambitious. I think Sky remake is the right move, and Ys fans and TX fans often get the shaft and dont deserve another delay, but I really dont see how they could leave a cliff hanger like this the way it is. They should have taken a small delay in ys and TX to ensure that kai was at least a decent game even if they had to go asset shopping to make it work. the writing, gameplay, and conclusion have serious issues, even if it still evokes the FC and Sen 3 plot twist feeling. The release feels like people watching a dumpster fire even among real fans as protags go full ponker po and stop heroes from saving the world to go to a birthday party
I think I want Edith burned to the ground
>>496988494>Nta, but they would have given it the same branding as the other 4 if that's how Falcom felt about it.Yeah that's why Zero and Ao are different arcs and Kuro and Kai are different arcs lmao.
>>496988637They legit didn't change a single one of Judith's crafts from Kuro 2 kek. Even Bergard had some of his reworked. Half of the "main cast" didn't even get new S-crafts and they still didn't even touch up some of them only really Quatre and Risette. You will start Kai 2 and Judith will be using the same crafts and S-craft for the fourth game in a row. Falcoms laziness has reached new lows I never thought possible.
>>496988131this is another thing dragging falcom's kuso arc into the dumps. Theres no feeling of exploration in kuso because a vast majority of the games look like modern slop, all so falcom wouldnt have to make assets on their own. the whole thing looks like a TX game. what is the point of even having TX at this point?
>>496988847Zero and Kuro 2 didn't have the END OF SAGA subtitle.
I don't care about crafts and s-crafts.They can all be the same for four games so long as we got to see some new cities.
>>496988847Zero & Ao are always grouped together. And Kai ends saying to be continued in Van's final game. Hajimari doesn't have either.
>>496988761That's not even a good Singa trackhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CrR7WsJ_3c
i don't want new fucking cities i want to see more of the countrysidewhat is there only 1 fucking village in all of calvard? there's no ruins or sign of the countries history fucking anywhere except in cities that all look the fucking same?
>>496989006>CS4 lied in its title therefore CS5 doesn't exist"Hajimari isn't an ED8 game"-fags are literally sub 80 IQ this is embarassing
Every game is a new arc
>>496958208That she wants Van to herself.
>>496989112>CS5 doesn't existCS5 is not used officially anywhere. So yes.
>>496989035Yes, I'm intentionally posting bad Singa tracks as I'm not actually a Singa fan and I'm being ironic when I call him "Kinga" since I don't think he's a King, I think he sucks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGwedQ9z0Nc
>>496988047it doesn't work for writing, if they wanted they could have dumped rean in 3 and made the nu thors students the ones who had to go save him in 3 and 4. but they didn't. and so everyones arc had to suffer for it which basically ruined that arc for anyone that was even remotely checked into the story. they didn't. Rean is increadibly popular as a character admittedly, but the issue comes down to his supporting cast. Having all of their progression fucked over really rubbed people the wrong way. theres no harem canon continuity, and going forward they all just parrot rean over and over in dramatic cut scenes so no one is left behind. if they wanted to keep rean they should have dropped the school setting and found something else for everyone to do. but again, THIS IS FORCED. it HAS to be the academy again. because it's like pottery it rhymes.
>>496960218I mean he and crow are the most experienced mecha pilots out there and probably the best. Emilia has a good training and a better robot but experience does matter a lot.
>>496989073>there's no ruins or sign of the countries history fucking anywhereThey'd need to actually do more research about France. So...>they should have dropped the school settingEndng of CS2 made me think he was gonna be a pseudo Ironblood kek.
>>496989243>Rean is increadibly popular as a character admittedlyNo he isn't. It's normal for a protagonist to top popularity polls. Rean is popular among those who remain, not among the thousands who left the franchise because of him.
YEAH OF COURSE, REAN IS THE MOST HATED CHARACTER AMONG THE KISEKI COMMUNITY.
>>496989374Fair enough, but I don't think the Tyrfing mechs would have done much better. Something stronger is probably required.
YEAH OF COURSE, REAN IS THE MOST LOVED CHARACTER AMONG THE KISEKI COMMUNITY.
>>496989550I literally said Emilia has the better robot. Yeah we need something on the level of a divine knight that's absorbed all the others or better.
van will get destroyed in polls because after kuro 1 falcom wont actually let him fucking do anything. he's a side character in his own arc. falcom are so unbelievably incompetent.
>>496989550>>496989701Super Tengen Toppa Valimar
Agnes ended up more important than Van Lol. Demon Kings are nothing special.
>>496989701I'm saying their experience probably wouldn't help too much in that case. >>496989821Kek
>Towa is being clingy to Crow so he can be her rebound guy.Holy shit what a bitch. I hope Crow goes for Emilia instead.
>>496989112it is at the very least also the ED 7 bonus game too.
>>496989974Crow is for Risette since she's mechanical like Ordine
>>496990116lol>>496990058uoh
>>496990116Risette is on the Van train unless she turns out to be his future past daughter.
>>496989802They should have revealed more shit about him this time.
>>496990168>Van trainBan is a bitch and Risette would leave for a real man like Crow
>>496990168being a future past daughter, why not?
>>496990341that should be joshua thoughbeit?
1 hour remains until we find out if the Calvard arc is cancelled or not
Is risette a cumdoll?
>>496990386Poor Lloyd. Poor Joshua.
>>496990508hmmm she IS artificial...
>>496990508she's half cumdoll
>>496990247There isn't even lore about him behind the fucking doors. wtf.
>>496990247yeah i don't get wtf falcoms problem ispeople would like van more if he actually got to do things and we got to learn more about it but its like he's just been in stasis since the end of kuro 1
you fags have no patience>b-butYou. Fags. Have. No. Patience.
How is Crow even this strong where the fuck did he train
>>496990624>>496990687Yea it's unacceptable. 3 games in and the current MC is still mostly a mystery. For comparison by the end of CS3 we learned:>Rean's origins & what happened to his family>how he has SU>more info about the DKs and what their deal isThere is no excuse for Falcom here. If they could do all that then they can do it now.
>>496990897but
>>496989802I don't think he'll be that low, but it's true that after kuro 1 he mostly took a backseat in terms of the main plot relevance. 3 games and we still don't know about his true purpose as the demon lord's vessel, what is grendel and mare. I can guess what they'll do with him in the sequel considering all the build up, but they could at least reveal things about grendel in kai.
>>496990687I like Van a lot personality wise. Just based purely on personality I rank him higher than most of the protagonists in the series. But you need more than personality to carry a multiple-game long story arc, there has to actually be a story. He's the main character of the arc he has to be able to drive the story forward but he just doesn't. After Kuro 1 he feels like a background character who just has more lines than a background character. We're now heading into his final game and it still feels like we barely know the guy and he hasn't had a lot of epic moments to really shine. It feels like Falcom sabotaged him and he could have been more loved than he ended up being if Falcom actually gave a shit.
>rean route just utilizing the whole "element of cool"(cause katana wanking is just cool for nips) with just less or no substance>kevin route just makes kevin being a fucking retard>van route is just muh cake
>The order Ellroy, Melchior and Lucrezia belong to is the one they introduced in Sen III/IV that Sharon came fromHow are people still saying Alisa won't be back if Sharon has lore to give in that regard?
>>496991259sharon has absolutely fucking 0 reason to show up in kai 2 and alisa has even less than that
>>496958284Jesus Christ. Color schemes really can carry a character design hard. Imagine if this was her default color scheme. She would have been nowhere near as popular.
>>496991023i literally cannot believe vagrants hasn't shown up ONCE since the end of kuro 1like this is something that should have been the driving force of the arc and its just nowhere to be seenthey teased it all throughout kai with van having those chest pains and then it still doesn't fucking happenfalcom are unreal dude
>>496991385Reminds me of Mitsuri from KnY
>>496990939bankeks will tell you that you didn't play the game, but ask them and they couldn't answer
>>496991239Second half of Van's route has a lot of reveals and the final boss fight was kino, but it's just another build up game. I feel like falcom didn't know how handle the whole time sept-terrion plot until kuro 1 was finished.
>>496991518Wtf are you talking about we've done nothing but complain that they haven't revealed anything about Van since Kuro 1.
>>496991518Every single Vanfag complained about Kai not revealing anything new about his origin or GrendelThey were the loudest in fact
why the fuck did van never get the super saiyan 2 grendel form ever again
Small company please understandu
>>496991694He got grendel sin in Shizuna's connect event.
>>496991694Because he threw away his diabolic core at the end of Kuro 1. Without it Vagrants and thus Grendel isn't as strong as it was at the end of Kuro 1. He can only use it in the Gartens which is a virtual space.
Only Gerard can save Calvard right nowBring our villain back!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6ZArfn0Kwg
>>496991457He actually did show up again. As a rehashed boss in the Marchen Garten haha....
>>496991568>>496991537Why am I called a reantaco when I said the same as you guys then
Kondom said that kuro 2 sequel will concentrate on Gramheart, Shizuna and Van... well at least he didn't lie about Gramheart.
>>496991967That's only tamlefag. Ignore him.
>>496991694Because he doesn't want to use Vagrants Zion's power.
>>496991967Probably because you act like an arcwar nigger when you say shit like "bankeks".
>>496992009kondo is the biggest fucking liar ive ever seenhe's make molyneux look like an honest salesman
>>496992009I wish he did because our president didn't deserve that ending
Reminder that the series is 90% finished now.
>>496992009Haha... yeah he also said Kuro 2 would solve most of the mysteries from Kuro 1. Haha... that's our Kondo...
>>496992086Nah, that time I didn't and I even say blame kondom and he should have done more effort for him, that bankek out of nowhere was rabid
>>496992009>Van mostly gets nothing after Kuro 1>Shizuna getting fuck all until Kai with a conncect even & lore in Rean's route that's just sequel baitKondo is a cunt
at this point the only conclusion you can come to is that kondo just actively and maliciously lies because theres no way he can constantly do it on "accident" or with some kind of innocent intentions
>>496992009>will concentrate on Gramheart, Shizuna and Vanwell it did?
I don't know what Kondo is thinking anymore... like what's the point of sky remake when you leave your current arc in this state? It would be fine if kai actually wrapped things up as it was expected to do, but now after this cliffhanger ending you'll have to deliver the sequel as fast as possible, but he deliberately concentrates all the resources on sky remake which should've been made when Calvard arc was done.
>>496992540Kondo is just a retard. That's it.
