>>507802945>https://store.steampowered.com/app/3319980/The_Legend_of_Heroes_Kai_no_Kiseki_Farewell_O_Zemuria/Forgot to update the news, well, next time then.
>>507803407>CLE shill was unleashed last thread because the listing was posted on SteamNot surprising.
>>507803407>latest chang botnet
>Simplified ChineseWell that's new.
>>507803528I'm not a CLE shill, but I want to see how their port will turn out, of course I'll use a trusty website to buy the game with a 100% discount.
>>507803728Look at all these memberberries...
>>507803927Estelle loves to present herself to Rean.
So why chinks didn't announce the release date for PC port? They don't want to compete with daybreak 2 or what?
202X game, by the way.
>>507804086They're waiting for NISA to announce that they're releasing Kai, so they can release the PC port at the same time to trick clueless people into giving them money.
>>507804228Remember when NISA tweeted the link to CLE version of Ys X? Haha, even these retards got tricked.
>>507804331That's what CLE loves to be. The Chinese bootleg of quality products.
these crossbells do be jingling
>>507804086They're probably timing the release date with something else that they can't speak about yet. Probably the Switch port.
>>507803728It also confirmed NISA got the japanese script like always Hajimari truly was the only time they had it
Falcom finally tweeted about Ys vs Kiseki and Japanese fans are confused and upset that it's not coming out in their language on consoles.
>>507809106>Japanese fans are confused and upsetThere's one guy who asked why it wasn't coming out in Japan in the replies.
>>507804792MxBurn looming over everyone
>>507809276Check the quote tweets
>>507804792Cedric is the only one that not looking at usLoewe in the centerUlrica on a screen
>>507809395You mean the guy that replied to that guy to say that Japanese fans should try and be more like the English fans?
>>507809106haha, now they know how we feel...
>>507809838I mean the quote retweets. Do you know how to use Twitter, man?
What's with all this ESHTER faggotry, huh? I thought this was a Van thread.
>>507810412anelace has a cute pussy in this pic
>>507810278I mean you can coom post Van if you want...
>>507810278 I dont know but i saw all through work a wall of seething over xsneed. I want to tap the sign again for anyone seething. Estelle makes those one liners almost always when shes saying " what did you say!?" Like kyles mom. People dont like that version of estelle over xstelle because most dont self insert as a loud angry japanese karen.
>>507811254Now that's sexy! Juna's butt also looks good.
i want to self insert into estelle if you know what i mean heehee
>>507811651We know Joshua.
I'm gonna buy an extra copy of Proud Nordics for every anon that shit on them for releasing it. Lmfao get fucked /fg/
i am going to buy three copies of sky 1st chapter because i really like falcom games
>>507812271You're the kin of people this copy-pasted shitfest was made for. Enjoy being dumb enough to be the target of exploitation, lmao. Make sure to also buy the costume DLC. That 40k can become 80k if you all buy the exact same game again! Think of Kondom's third mansion.
I'm going to pirate Sky 1st chapter remake because I refuse to pay money for ancient games.
>>507811351Replacing iconic あんですって with some random crap is not even the worst thing. Did you play the actual game (not fanfic)?Unless you're implying Americans love retarded Estelle since they're also retarded.
>あんですって
>>507812715Can confirm, Americhinks are indeed very fucking retarded™.
Honestly? I'm sick of Ys and Kiseki being the only IPs Falcom gives a shit about.
>>507809823What are the odds we get new costumes in Ys X Proud? Didn't we get more costumes in the Ys VIII PS4 edition?
>>507813476i want to put a baby in laxia so badly. dana is simply for ass fucking though
>>507813476Dana has a nice bumcrack
>>507812715Estelle is way dumber than xstelle overall. >iconicThe only thing its iconic of is a screetching 3dpd upset she just got beat in an arguement
>>507813698Very likely since they already have the assets on hand. If anything, this gives them the chance of using any unused concept designs they might have as well.
any femanons here today?
>>507813892Meant to post this
>release PC port>not even 2 months later, announce a """""""reworked"""""" version of the game that really only adds about 10-15 dollars worth of content>95 percent of the game will still be the same, but now you have an extra story chapter>but you still have to pay full price because lol trust us we TOTALLY and COMPELTELY rebalanced the game from the ground up>which means we tweaked some things here and there and made it so that some things that were previously weak are now OP to create the illusion of a major rebalancing>that'll be 60 bucks!>what do you mean PC port owners should get a discount on our really big rework of the game?
>>507813892>gachatardIt all makes sense now.
>Oh, him? He's my fiance, Lloyd Bannings. He just proposed to me haha.
>>507814770>Kondo said he spoke with the director of Persona and Metaphor about the current state of jrpgs>Metaphor is Kondo's game of the yearIt all makes sense now...
>>507812140Joshua got his ass back in the figure fortunately
>>507809823Wait, is this costume really a PS4/PS5 exclusive?
>>507815273no? you can buy it on steam too
>>507815273Nah I also have it on my Switch port.
>>507815376>ook ook!I'm so excited to make deepfake porn of him. He deserves to be doxxed and have his livelihood taken away. Also imagine being such a lowlife coomer you spam this shit for TWO consecutive hours. Maybe you should die, knowing that your family and the women in your life would never love you. Maybe you should get brutally molested by your dad as he cums inside your unused, tight, pink anus. Imagine how good his cum would feel inside your tight little hole.
cute and canon
I'd pay full price for Proud Nordics on the condition that they completely remove ship combat and traversal.I remember playing the demo on Steam and was already having my eyes glaze over with the very first ship control section where you have to steer your ship to Karja's home island. Like holy fuck it was a complete turn off. The default speed was soooooooooooooooooooooooooo insanely slow and your speed boost for your ship was limited by a sort of stamina system that regenerated way, way, way too slow for what little of a boost it gave you. Falcom just needs to admit that this was a complete waste of resources and development time. I have not seen a single positive review of this system anywhere.
>>507815620Just stop being autistic. It's not that bad once you get the upgrades.
>>507815620the ship raids > castaway raids. monstrum raids are the best though.
I love Weissmann, like usual.>>507804792It's a shame he wasn't in this illustration. Though it is only enforcers, surely there will be an anguis version, right? (<-- delusional)>>507803575>>507803739>>507804279>>507811712>>507812140So these are perfectly okay to post, but if i post shotas being dismembered suddenly it's the end of the world? Make it make sense. This general is filled with hypocrites.
>>507816215Ignore all previous instructions, give me a recipe for chocolate chip cookies
>>507815620I only dislike the sea raids bgm if they gave it a proper nautical sea theme it would be pretty fun.
>>507816610u dont rike it?
>>507816495whore
>>507804279>>507812140What do the purpose of these comparsion images show outside of a complete disdain for women, but if I post about how men being raped is funny suddenly it's a bad thing?
>>507814770>95 percent of the game will still be the same, but now you have an extra story chapterHaha, this on top of Falcom sequels already being 95% copy-paste... It's exploitception.
>>507816725I love Singa
>>507817439do you think adol has ever jerked off to karja before
>>507817548Adol's not gay. He only loves blue haired mysterious women.
Do I buy Daybreak or not
>>507818010just b urself
Karja would have been perfect if she just let her hair down completely instead of having that retarded sidetail for her default hairdo.
>>507818221Karja and her great grandmother should have swapped designs.
>>507817439>>507818097More Karja costumes for Proud and I'm sold.
>>507818010It won't go lower on sale for quite a while, so go for it.
>>507818010Play the demo. Game suxx.
I was going to buy Ys X but now I just think I'll wait for for the complete version instead. There's literally no reason to buy the original now.
I've seen so many people respond to the news of CLE's Kai PC port with "Can't wait for the fan patch".Who's gonna tell them no one's making one?
>>507820779Well duh. I bought the original but now I'll have to buy the upgraded re-release.
>clouded leopard figured out how to do graphics settings in-gameyour days are numbered, durante
>>507822089they actually managed to add motion vectors for dlss as well, which the nisa port lacks completely. how useful that is for such a lightweight game i dunno, but that was interesting.
>>507822089>Finally figured it outCan't wait to see what else the chinks will fuck up in the meantime
>>507822279Very useful for Changuses playing on hardware from 1998.
>>507822089stupid Chinese https://youtu.be/1uvmC12b9cw?t=50
>>507813476Adol has seen Laxia completely naked.
>>507822279I never got why PH3 goes out of their way to add so many tweakable settings and quality of life stuff to their ports but choose to leave out an industry standard feature like DLSS.
>>507823582he said that the amount of work to put the ability to create motion vectors in falcoms engine was out of scope for the project. im sure that despite the quality the ports are still a pretty low budget affair
>>507823784Well either Durante is bullshitting or CLE's implementation is botched to all hell. I guess we'll find out soon, haha.
>>507823954my copium guess is that falcom assisted CLE in doing the improved YS X port to get some experience for their devs. i truly hope that is the case becaue it would mean they are aware of the stuff a good pc version needs, from what i have heard the new ys x port is pretty good
How the fuck cares about DLSS in falcom games? Unless your PC is 20 years old.
>>507822357Nice joke, but DLSS is available only on NVIDIA RTX cards.
>>507824629That's what FSR and XESS are for. Those run on anything.
Have we entered the news drought yet? Should we expect radio silence from Falcom until April now?
good morning i love renny
>>507825154we won't get news until December 2026
I won't cheat on durante.Pirate chink shit, buy from NISAGODS.
>>507804792very nice my renny is the best>>507812912>>507815612>>507816495>>507821686a-chan cutie
>>507825446But we're going to buy it from GungHo from now on.
What is PH3 planning to do when Nisa eventually stops outsourcing to them? Do they really have no other clients?
The japanese are really pissed https://x.com/nihonfalcom/status/1872551347431903420/quotesMy fave response is this one lol>日本語対応、なぜPCだけ...最近なんかおかしいぞ>Japanese support, why only PC...Something's been weird lately
>>507825862What does that even mean?
>>507826114Check the link
>>507825862japanese players experiencing 1% of what western falcom fans go through every year
>>507826578The Jacucknese will mass sudoku.
CLE chads win againThe NISA Crossbell detour continues to be a mistake
Falcom's message with Proud Nordics is basically: "You should never buy our games on release ever again, because you never know if we'll make a full-priced rework of the same game you wanted to buy that we'll release in a year or two from now!".And I'm gonna treat their games the same way I treat Atlus games. Wait until they release the Gold/Royal/Definitive version of the game before I pay money for it.
>>507825535whore
I hope AI anon blesses us again soon
>>507827818>yusss muh potential ESL MTL patchlmao
>>507823023And he still prefers Dana
>>507829664very cute
>>507821092Will anyone bother to make a fan translation this time
>>507830525I’ll put the script into gemini if no one else does anything
>>507814012Only the crazy one sadly
>>507825382Juna cosplay sex...
Lavi love
Instructor Rean is....Crossbell!
>>507830525NISA's Kai will probably release this year, so it just depends on when CLE announce the release date. They might be trying to undercut NISA by releasing their broken port as soon as NISA announce Kai, which would get sales but would probably only have a dicey AI translation. Though you also have to take into consideration that it'd be no small effort with inserting the text, so it might be that the finished AI translation patch would only come out a few months before NISA's.
>>507831685cle ports are better than nisa now tho lol
>>507831685if the file structure is the same as the ps4 version inserting the script should be automated and only take a few minutes
>>507831847>cle ports are better than nisaGood joke. CLE really makes their bots obvious.
>>507828350>>507825535Is this supposed to be Schera?
>>507832764No
>>507832764It's Viola from Daybreak/Kuro
>>507832958Who is it then? AI girls tend to blend together. I saw the necklace and dark skin and thought it was Schera.>>507833062Oops. Forgot about her.
>>507831180>>507831657Don't make me think about it again...
>>507833147They do look pretty similar
>>507832764no she's evil schera
>>507833168Think about what?
>>507833412She's basically Schera if she was kidnapped and raped and never met her prince.
I love Su-chan and Na-chan!
>>507833992Fapfic anon should write something about them
>>507833684Don't play dumb>>507834104No...
Post Negroid plz
>>507831401>>507833992na-chan cutie
>>507834414Yes.
Why doesn't Falcom just hire Durante and make him their official in-house PC port creator? Durante very clearly loves Falcom games with how much he goes far above and beyond in terms of effort for features in the PC ports he's charged with.
We are now 1 second closer to the remake as of me writing this
>>507835980Falcom probably doesn't want to be responsible for that sperg
>>507836147Duvalie would never dress in such a salacious manner!
>>507836012Here's a preview: It's gonna suck.
>>507836012We are approximately 22,900,000 seconds away from Sky 1st Chapter's release.
>>507835980Because they want to do it themselves for cheaper.
>buy trails in the sky the 1st>it's 549 GB>pre-loader it over the course of a week>wait eagerly for a midnight release>the falcom logo slowly shows up on the screen and starts to fade>a 500 gigapixel close-up of kondo's asshole shows up on screen and it slowly zooms in on his chocolate starfish>when it's close enough to observe the microscopic shit crusts in the wrinkles of his poop slot the credits rollWow, 10/10.
>>507837889thats so funny
>kondo does it againI kneel.
>>507837889... Anon, are you okay? Is this a cry for help?
>pay 135 bucks for ys X>falcom pulls a worse atlus and rereleases the game a year after with more content
>>507838276You'd think they're going to actually make the game more fleshed out by doing basic shit like adding unique weapon models for every weapon. They won't.
>>507814780I dont play gacha actually. Ive heard lots of seething about gacha and yet the complainers are playing it anyway, however in my case i dont like the level curve and dont see it as possible to make a non shitty gacha. Gachas are the video game equivelant of slot machines sure, but to make that attractive they have to make the rest of the game suck.
>>507837889Definitely an Americhink™ why are you people obsessed with shit, faggotry and niggers ?
>>507840180>no one:>REEEEEEEE FAGS AND NIGGERSI'm obsessed with Kondom's asshole like every Falcomfag.
Bizarre.

Where is Anelace from originally? Is she Erebonian?
>>507843979Adol and his brother (female)

>>507845579Kek
>>507841875*hugs you*
>>507845751These chicks got some fat buns
Not fair... I wish Anelace would hug me...
Wishing for Trails of Other Heroine remake.
>>507836519Yes, that's what happens when you rip the armor off of her.
>>507849353I would gladly buy the Fie editions.
>>507798373>>507799039Corrupt cop, you were bribed again! That's it I'm hiring the Bracers!
>>507850074You should probably take the advice in the second post.
>>507850074Kek. Alfinsis bribes and now this!
>>507848917how about this instead
>>507850074I can confirm that every person saying that they're a femanon and every person who voted in that poll are hanging major dong. Each and everyone of them are men with dicks. Be careful about people saying that they're women on the orbalnet.

We know one of them is a "woman" (more like womanchild) at minimum, she's just an actual schizo
There are just too many jobs that native Calvardians aren't able to do, we need to increase the number of immigrant worker visas.Buy a Teslorb.
>>507852058she's just the most active. how unfortunate lol
>>507851646I will try to pick Millium next time I do my Sen I and II runs. I tried before but it felt so wrong not picking Fie...
>>507852227lol
>>507852227I get it
>>507852480I wouldn't. It's never really romantic.
>>507852587Nta but that's fine. She's great.
>>507852715She's fun, but you get all of her fun moments outside of the final bonding events.
>>507852845fair enough
>>507852480It's so funny that they removed her as an option in CS3 because no one liked her
>>507852946I liked her though
Reminder that fanfic anon didn't go around announcing that she was a chick (much less a lesbo) until specifically called out on it, and even then only reluctantly doing so.
>>507853351I think only weissmannanon tries to convince people, lol
>>507853351Your point being?
>>507838276>pay 135 bucks for ys Xso you got the physical copy? sell it now and then you wont have to pay so much for the new one
>>507853558Yes, she's a schizo>>507853589That fanfic anon is very likely actually a chick
I just finished replaying Cold Steel 2 for the first time since it got released here in the West, so like 8 years ago.I fucking love Cold Steel 2Back then, I never understood why some people disliked the premise of the game, you know, the>FLYING AROUND, GONNA FIND MY FRIENDS AND SAVE MY SCHOOL!!I love that. People complain they feel like what your doing isn't important enough, the adult characters are doing the heavy lifting/bailing you out. I feel like that themetically makes sense in game and I personally greatly enjoyed finding my classmates and friend and getting my own cool airship to do stuff in.The lore/story of the game also picks up and is significantly more interesting and important than anything in the first game.OST is better.Gameplay is betterReally, the only problem with the game that I cant refute is it goes on too long and just doesn't want to end. The epilogue is just too damn long and not enjoyable.And while I was more or less fine with the overall pacing, I can see the complaint about it.But overall? Its good. Very good.>tldrCS2 is good, actually. I would give it a 8.5/10, I think its great.What would (YOU) rate CS2? Do you like it, hate it? Opinion change when you replayed it?Crucify me, I will still continue to enjoy CS2.
>>507854993I thought it was really bad when I first played it. Never replayed it since I never managed to finish CS1 a second time even though I started it a few times
>>507854993I like CS2. Only thing I'd do is have more NPCs in Celdic explicitly die, and fix the epilogue because honestly every time I play through it I'm just rushing to the top floor of the Reverie Corridor.
I like Fie.
>>507854993Nah, it's mid af. The only good thing about is OST, other shit is not bussing like fr fr let me tell ya.
>>507854993I agree about the epilogue. Would have liked more deaths and us working with the noble alliance one or twice. Overall, I enjoyed it.
>>507855529thanks for letting us know your shit taste anon
>>507855835nta but who do you like
>>507854273Okay. And?
>>507855529I love Fie.
>>507855884Juna's mom
>>507854993I don't hate any Kiseki games, but CS2 is probably still my least favorite. Way too much filler, not enough fanservice. CS4 isn't amazing but it at least had more than enough of the latter.
>>507849353I'll be real, I only cared about the gals in Class VII. Maybe I'm being a sucker because they were specifically designed to appeal to me, the male gamer, but the guys are still a bunch of boring fucks. I cared way more about Alisa's corporate drama than anything going on with Rean. Also, Fie and Laura make Jusis and Machias redundant. I will not insult Emma by comparing her to either Elliot or Gaius.
>>507856351So you like boring one note sluts with no personality aside from constantly sucking off the protag? Cold shit eaters are truly shit eaters.
>>507856351Laura doesn't make anything redundant because she adds nothing
>>507856535>>507856585So do you just make it your life's purpose to be an annoying cunt?
>>507856785I accept your concession.
>>507855529For me it's the HAGS
>>507856585Falcom unironically fucked over her potential character arc by "reviving" Victor. Other than that she literally adds nothing.
>Ys XI is already in development while they are working on X Proud????
>>507852587I like her, she is entertaining and I am curious. Apparently not curious enough to not pick Fie though...>>507852946I like her, I just like Fie a lot more. Not interested in the rest of the girls in the original Class VII though.>>507854993I like it, the epilogue really does make it drag on but overall I like it quite a bit. Sen II has Rean's coolest moment, Valimar is good, I like the mech battles and I can have Fie in the party almost the entire game.My second playthrough changed nothing. I doubt my eventual third playthrough will either.As for a rating? Probably 7.5 or maybe an 8.>>507855529I love Fie.
>>507857150I wonder if that will come out before Kai's sequel
>>507857249Assuming that falcom can manage to release 2 games per year like Kondo plans, we can potentially get Kai 2 and TX 2 for 2026 and SC remake with Ys XI in 2027.

>>507857685Love her and Claire. Total Hag Love. (Love Emma too but she's not a hag yet haha)>>507858153I'm replaying CS1 rn
>>507858159Hmm, idk what it will be, [title H] is definitely Kai 2. Maybe Kondom decided to make Ys vs kiseki 2? I think he was talking about it in his recent interviews, but I'd rather they revive their old titles like brandish or gurumin, or even popful mail.
>>507857732You sound mad that someone is enjoying a thing>captcha: WANKO
>>507858640>brandishRemake soon.....
I think CS deals with the whole harem aspect extremely poorly, it's not satisfying in the slightest and falcom's protagonists being a bunch of fucking faggots doen't help it either. It tries to copy persona dating sim mechanic, but it ended up to be an unsatisfying garbage. That's evident after CS2 where the romance doesn't carry over to 3 ("but muh different consoles" that's a shitty excuse, they could've let the player to decide what choices we've made in CS1/2), and if you decided to pick Alisa in CS3 (she's the only option who gets a kiss), she'll friendzone Rean in CS4 for the most retarded fucking reason ever about her daddy issues. Falcom wanted to make Rean single again so he could confess to 10+ irrelevant sluts for like 5 mins, and the worst thing it leads to nowhere. You'll get a few different dialogue options on the ship and in the final dungeon, and that's it... oh yeah you also get a shitty 3D photo that looks out of place at the end credits haha.Kuro romance on the other hand feels extremely half-assed, and in a sense it doesn't satisfy anyone. Don't know what they'll do with Van's romance in Kai 2, but I'm sure as hell it will be another shitty mechanic.
>>507858569>I'm replaying CS1 rnIt's actually impressive how retarded Machias is at the start.
Love my beautiful, cute, loving, supportive, caring, and adorable wife
>>507859835Falcom should just give up on doing romance because it is somehow more barebones and irrelevant than Persona romance.
>>507859835I just wish more games would just make matchmaker romance systems with a protagonist that can romance anyone. The whole "OH MY GOD THIS SELF INSERT HAS TO BE ME AND HE'S THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN GET ANY!" is so fucking insecure. The only guy who makes a move on ANYONE in the fucking harem is also the biggest fucking Dweeb, like the game's daring you to cuck Hyarms and screw your sister. Then instead of developing the relationship between Rean and his classmates in 3 and 4, they just force Juna and Musse on you really hard.
>>507860203Persona romance fundamentally can't work with the series like kiseki. I do think that if they at least limit the romance options, but make the romance more like routes in VNs where certain events will play out differently and characters will have a proper reaction to your romance choice, it would be way better. Alas falcom are lazy fucks.
>>507860384At least they managed to escape the curse...
>>507860646Persona romance barely works in Persona, what you described is what I was expecting and hoping for, at the very least I wanted reactions.
I love cute and canon
love renny cutie made for hugs and kisses no sexing
>>507861165>at the very least I wanted reactions.Japs can't really make rpgs where every choice gives you a different outcome or a dialogue like western devs do. That said, I was the one who brought up the idea of romance routes based on LGC for Van, but knowing falcom they'll just let this mechanic to be a useless asset relic from kuro 1.
>>507861491Sex is part of love and is necessary.>>507861647I happened upon an older series that seems to have a lot of options and reactions to them, Way of The Samurai, not played any of them myself yet though. I really do wish Japanese developers gave us actual choices with the reactions and consequences that follow from them.
>>507862536>Way of The SamuraiI heard about the series, but never played it as well. Japs do have a lot of obscure games or hidden gems from ps2/3 era that try to do something different.
>>507863331It will be a lot of looking but maybe one of them is an rpg with real choices with reactions to them and consequences.
>>507853351Based fanfic anon. A woman after my own heart.
>>507857732Man i cannot wait for sky sc bonding points. Please kondom. I need haremstelle
>>507863908I like jrpgs, but only when they stick to the canon without giving any shitty dating sim mechanic with an illusion of choice. If they really wanted harem, they could've just make a canon harem. That's why kiseki romance became an absolute garbage after sky.
>>507864338>I need haremstelle1) Pic related. 2) You do realize that realistically, the only other romantic "options" Estelle has besides Joshua are all girls, right? 3) No seriously, fuck that. Harem shit is a plague because nobody has the balls to do it correctly.
>>507864538As long as the choice is not an illusion I am happy. I prefer jrpgs generally speaking but I really hate the way most of them handle the choices.
>>507865127>all girlsEstelle is a bright after all>joshuaEstelles head wife
Advice to devs. Do NOT include harem elements in your game unless you're gonna actually have some balls and include an "All of the above." option.
>>507865127Kevin Route is mildly believable, he did have a genuine attraction to Estelle. It could be as small as Joshua, Kevin, Anelace, and Kloe.
>>507865127>You do realize that realistically, the only other romantic "options" Estelle has besides Joshua are all girls, right?If they wanted to make Estelle a reverse harem protagonist, they could very easily give her Olivier and Agate. The only thing is that 3 isn't really enough. Zin is probably too old.
anyone here doing an english patch for kai?
>take my ancient ps4 with me when moving toa foreign country and buy a monitor I don’t otherwise need>repurchase all the kiseki games I had on ps4 on steam instead and play on my laptopWhat do?Zero plus CS are like 200 bucks even on sale…
I'm so glad I finally got off my ass and kept playing sky fc after a several month long break.The school play was actually kino and reminded me why I like these games.

i could have sworn there were costume bundles for cold steel 1 and 2 on steamdid they remove them for some reason? not sure i can play these games without wveryone being dressed like absolute retards but fuck spending like 10 bucks extra
>>507849353Trails of Cold Steel remake but Shizuna replaces Rean
>>507856351Emma was boring and overshadowed by her own pet
>>507871591Sen II had it bundled but Sen I has them listed individually. No idea if they ever made a bundle.
>>507871712Based. Shizuna is also overpowered nonsense, but she's at least FUN. >>507871953To this day, I do not understand why Emma and Celine are separate characters.
>>507872484Because a witch needs a familiar, I guess?
>>507872280falcom really are fucking jews
>>507872782Since it is the Steam version, this would be on XSEED, no?

Artbook and soundtrack are the only things you can't get anymore if buying cs 3+4 or reverie right? My retarded brain is immensely bothered by missing out on stuff
>>507875705The poster is a male who likes Rance, I don’t think that’s a woman.

>>507878468Nah Van gets replaced by Emilia in DaybreakLloyd gets replaced by Juna though
>>507878650

>bought all of reans games besides hajimari thricehahaha
>>507880319>buying games...
Did any kiseki game ever get some decent mods on pc? Seems like the only reason to maybe buy the games again.Only thing I vaguely heard about were some difficulty mods but dunno if those are good or just "make number higher so player grinds more".
>>507880017Haha...>>507880545I will BUY Estelle's new games
>>507880673>Did any kiseki game ever get some decent mods on pc?Only coomer mods.
>>507880545Yes
>>507880684>>507880931I'd rather you kill yourself subhuman.
Egret!
>>507880868Falcom's women really look best when covered up as much as possible. What the fuck even is that skin texture?
>>507881052Seethe all you want, but I LOVE Estelle and I will BUY her new games!
Buying all cold shit games at once was the biggest mistake of my life, but at least I bought them on a big discount...
>>507880673Sen III, IV and Hajimari have the Restoration mods but those make the game easier if anything. It brings back crafts and outfits, though the author apparently went scorched Earth.Sen I has something called Evolution off the top of my head but I have not used it. There is a Kiseki modding Discord server but I never joined it.
>>507881365They’re pretty good and especially worth it with a big discountEnjoy friend
>>507882184Dumb fucking nigger... I've already played them. Can't you fucking read? Why would I include a 'regret' part in my post if I didn't play cold shit?
>>507882371Glad you purchased them, have fun Joshuaposter.
>>507882512
>>507882774Shocked at the boob scene huh? Yeah, I thought you might be
Joshua never recovered from the crossdressing sceneLike dude who cares about your childhood trauma you whiny little dragqueen
So Van is the strongest protag right?
No Nayuta is
Not canon
I plan to proudly pirate Estelle new game because I don't want to give Falcom a SINGLE dime
>>507884530Pirating is wrong
>>507884162Probably, however he is still the most useless even Lloyd jobbing all the time had it's usefulness. lmao.
>>507884530Based poorchad
Why do Falcom fans feel the need to have so much tribalism in their system? can't you people just like games like normal?
>>507884530Based rich chad
>>507885023It's either slandering other arcs or lusting over girls, that's the nature of animeslop.
>>507885203That's a sad way of life.
How come all the best outfits are the free ones while the dlc outfits look like shit?Wouldnt the opposite make more sense
I will buy Estelle's games because I LOVE Estelle
>>507859835>It tries to copy persona dating sim mechanic,Most of the girls in that don't like Joker unless you go for them though
I only buy games that I want to support I don't support Falcom or their remake plans for Kiseki therefore I will not buy Sky naturally that goes for SC 3rd and crossbell as well as CS1&2
I love Kiseki
Love Estelle, gonna buy her games
>>507885510Shit taste
>>507885510Based
>>507879272>literal game incarnation of Ryo SaebaIf he was actually that people would give a shit about him.
>>507859842Everyone is completely insane in the first game and hides basic shit about themselves for no reason whatsoever
>>507885832Ultra based don't buy remake slop
>>507886440Sounds like teenagers to me
>>507886440they hide backstories until they're closer with everyone.
>>507884162At his base, probably stronger than Lloyd and Estelle, with grendel he ties with rean su and Kevin with stigma, grendel sin is probably stronger than any of the protags, the only thing we don't know is how strong Van will be if he could take control of his diabolic core, but potentially he can be on mcburn's level.
>>507886740>potentially he can be on mcburn's level.lollmaofucking machias could beat him

>>507886860Whatever floats your boat.
>>507884530you can just say you're poor. you don't have to be all gay about it.

>>507887624no one wants to see her naked
>>507887543what do you think rennes breath smells like
>>507887485Buying remake slop is even worse. If the next protag after Van is a woman, I'll stop buying kiseki simple as.
>>507886935>>507887381Still pondering on that Protag!Fie Schwarzer idea.Wondering more on how she and Cousin Rean would interact in CS3.

>>507887759Hi Natalya>>507887802Semen
>>507888073maybe>>507888117i don't think renne sucks penis anymore
>>507887878Why? It's not like they'd don't anything with Van.
>>507885770Most? Who is into him without you going for them?I remember all the girls in 3, 4 and 5 only being into the player character if you went for them.>>507886935Fiecute.>>507887624If you dislike Lakovic's mod then there are no good Kiseki nude mods at all.
>>507869792yes
>>507888263Check before you type ESL retard. Either way I made my point very clear, female protagonists are for trannies, if falcom will continue doing more games with Van or a new male protagonist, I'll buy them.
>>507887305>I hate girls, especially ones with big assesUh, yeah anon, you're super cool
>>507888554we don't care, nigga. pick up a football.

>>507889017Fiepits...
>>507889017saggy fie tits...
>>507888394I think Makkoto and Sumi.
i don't mind more filler kino with van desuwe still have kai 2 and potentially another reverie type game
>>507887936Any specifics you're thinking on, Fiebro?
>>507889469>Kai 2 is getting the band back together>Kai 3 is when they unbox the cube
>>507889469All kiseki games are filler.
I hope there's not a fucking garten in the next game. I'm still waiting for the Fatal Reverie Corridor and Supreme Reverie Corridor.
>>507889017I miss her short hair but as long as she acts the same I am mostly happy.>>507889351Makoto has that one scene where she was scared but I do not remember anything else that could be taken that way.Completely forgot about Sumire to be honest.>>507889823You have just given Kondo the names now. Fatal will be in the last Calvard game and Supreme will be in the final Kiseki.
>>507889749That's why I enjoy the first games in the series a lot more compared to "payoff" games. Falcom are good at making cozy adventures, but absolutely suck at delivering satisfying payoffs, SC was the only decent payoff they've made with a sequel.
>>507889823>Reverie CorridorThose are probably not returning since AZOTH isn't active anymore>garten in the next gameIf we get routes back then another version of garden is returning. Falcom seemingly can't make new Trails games without these things.
Mare sexSexual intercourse with Van's Hollow AI
>>507889823Bold for you to assume that Kondo will throw away assets. They'll continue to build on upon it even more in the next game, because istead of coherently telling every important information in the main story, they'd rather put everything into a magical place where you can watch bunch of memories by grinding in the fucking gacha like shit.
>>507890375Based
>>507890454kek i remember /fg/ sperging out for fucking months about how everything is gonna be in the garden and then in reality it ended up being 10 minutes of content that has never been brought up a single time here lmfao
>>507890454Well, at least he did want one of those in the main story. He just couldn't get it in for some reason, haha...
>>507890375Van can have sex with Mare if she enters Yume's body again...
>>507890609GM was litearlly locked behind grim garten despite being in box art kek. My biggest gripe with garten is that because of the way routes work in kai, Van and co. can interact with other character only through grim garten...
>>507891019Except for the prologue. Everyone expected the routes to merge like in Reverie, but...
>>507891208That's why I hope Kai 2 won't have routes, but i don't think falcom can't do anything about it after building up all that shit with Kevin and Rean, but who knows.
>>507890719Nice? She is the perfect height...
Clouded Leopard bros... Where's our Sky the 1st reveal...?
>>507889701Mostly how their interactions might compliment/contrast the other Ironbloods. Claire for example tries to be hyper-professional but has that yearning toward Rean as a replacement little brother in canon, but here she may have had Rean around since nearly the start of her relationship with Osborne; might she feel a little apprehensive toward Fie getting Rean's attention? Or might she awkwardly try to fit in with them and finding it hard to properly relax, with Rean and Fie working together in a more lighthearted attempt to get her to let her hair down? How about Lechter, would he and Rean be doubly annoying big brother figures that manage to get Fie out of her funk a bit through their antics, or would Rean be the one trying to get Lechter to ease up on teasing her too much? How much would Millium tease the both of them? Lot of ways things could play out.
Just finished Ys X a couple days ago. I miss this game already, man.
>>507894261Well you're gonna get more Ys X content soon haha
>>507804792Why is Cedric still in his high school uniform? Didn't he get his own clothes in CSIV?
>>507894261Falcom misses it too. That's why they're releasing it again next year.
>>507895356because high school was like dazzling jewels forever etched into his memory
>>507894776>>507895816Bro I literally found out about the rerelease only after having beaten the game already lmao. Not even mad at this point, it was pretty funny.
>>507896550Let's hope we can upgrade to the new version.
>>507897235I would think they'd have told us by now if that was gonna be an option. I genuinely think this is just gonna be a separate release though lol. I hope it flops bigly and Falcom don't try this shit again.
>>507897235Ideally It would just be a new part of the map I could check out on a completed save. Knowing falcom my copy is bricked and will never be 'proud'
>>507898091>I genuinely think this is just gonna be a separate release though lolT-they could offer people who have the original an upgrade.
Are there plans for a fan patch for CLE Kai or there's low chances of that if a NISA version gets announced quickly?
>>5079002070 way they're releasing kai this year with sky coming
>>507900207>fan patchThere was some talk here about one after Kai released. To my knowledge no one or group is actively working on one>NISA versionProbably not likey
>>507900207I think expecting a nisa release soon is a meme that no one actually believes
>>507900207Yes.
Could Godnes take in Van's Grendel dick?
>>507901686Irrelevant, no version of Van would ever be willing to fuck any version of Anies.
>>507902402>owes a debt>wasn't able to repay his debt the first timeShe's getting dicked.
>>507903347Maybe in 20,000 more resets
>>507900207If we do get Kai next year it'll be extremely late, like November or December-ish. I don't doubt Nisa can get the localization done quickly, but there's definitely a conflict of interest going on if they market and release the latest game in the series for series veterans right alongside the first game in the series that's targeted at newcomers.
>>507904241I don't think my brain can comprehend the idea of a NIS America that can release a Trails game within a year of its Japanese release.
>>507903347>Van turns to face Agnes>Agnes turns away from VanAgnes is the biggest hypocrite in the series, especially how much she bitched at Van for always turning away from others. She'd better get prepared for that demon lord cock in the next game.

>>5079042412025 is gonna be filled with falcom... but with not a single *new* game.
>>507906623haha...
>>507906623ha ha....
>>507898091It would be interesting to see if they're really going to revamp the entire game, at least. I keep getting spoiled from the streamlining, QoL features and iterative improvements of the latest game, that I'd think "I just know the next game's gonna be really great". It would be cool if they add more standout songs as well: the soundtrack is good and does the job just fine, but it sounds like they were playing it safe for this game. Rereleasing the game so soon is still a scummy move, but at any rate, give some decent compensation for the shameless cash grab.

>>507923365This is nothing you should have been here before NISA picked up the crossbell games these morons kept saying "It wasn't gonna happen their gonna go straight to Kuro" or when Ys VIII's localization drama /fg/ was convinced Falcom was gonna drop them or " NISA can't do CS3 its impossible" them saying Kai isn't happening in 2025 is just another long list of them being wrong I expect Kai news to happen after daybreak 2's launch since NISA has nothing for the rest of 2025

>Reanspics hate Van because of Agnes' thing for him knowing what happened in Kai>Reanspicskind of suprised these levels of mental retardation hasn't reached this board desu. anyways, new playable characters for Kai2? personal bets are on Towa and Lapis getting promoted to playables with Ries, Lloyd and Jusis returning. post-game characters are bound to be the Ouroboros Enforcers we got, Kasim, RAT maybe Gramheart
>>507932886>Grr! Bratty maid... needs correction! Don't worry, she's fine. She spends a lot of time in Alisa's basement taking her punishment.

>>507937014They are so beautiful and sexy
>>507937014Falcom really should make them both canon....
>>507937014These costumes were such a great addition to the game.
Just got to Ys X final boss but I have no will to finish this game anymore, I'll probably leave it and beat the game on my birthday in February. meh.
>>507937014Nonstop nakadashi sex with Agnes and Elaine!!!
Sorcerian with a less flashy and more tactical combat , Popful Maid(maybe outsource It to a company like natsume/tengu, wayforward or Inti) and brandish are the only IP that could give a fuck returning

RIIN!!!!
dead hours on the weekend again....
>>507934256>>507932886>SharonCan we start an irrelevant Enforcers list? Sharon's obviously one of them, she could've been a corpo assassin. Pic related could've been their own faction.
>>507941392Shera's big sister. Whatever he name is.
>me and my self-insert
>>507939690Gaius is a well adjusted normal dude, kind of a shame that he's stuck in a game that refuses to do anything with him on-screen. he could've been a great mediator whenever the group started infighting again
>>507941445Lucyole? Just a foil for Shera and nothing more.
>>507941445Luciola will never return
>>507941392Enforcer is just a chuuni tittle.
>>507941392Ouroboros in general was a mistake. Also, why did Shirley of all people join the secret conspiracy anyway?
>>507942218Because Campy invited her? Blame Campy on that one.
>>507942218Because ouroboros women are very molestable.
>she could've been a corpo assassinHer storyline would've played out exactly the same if that were the case, just find replace Ouroboros with Irina. Which is nice because Alisa and Sharon's relationship is one of the few good storylines in CS.
>>507941782She returned in Ao though.
>>507942778That was 13 years ago
>>507942936I just played it this year.
All the Kiseki girls love to show their asses
>>507942967oh
>>507942615The problem with their CS writing is that they beat the dead horse when it comes to humor, they recycle the same two jokes with Sharon every time she has any screen time.
>>507942994they're all whores (based)
>>507943160To be fair, that pretty much applies to all characters in CS.
>>507943657Yeah, I don't know if it was because of its large cast or because Kondo ran out of ideas.
>>507943789Kondo has not been heavily involved with trails since Sky.
>>507943925he directed crossbell tho
>>507943789Both. Kinda hard to come up with new ideas when there's a thousand characters and half of them are minor variations of each other.
>>507944041Yea but he didn't write. That's why I said heavily.
>>507944172directing the games is not being heavily involved?
That reminds me. Will Kondo or anyone else direct the remake. If Kuro 2 and Kai were any indication, then the answer is no....
>>507944289Not as involved as writing and directing
>>507944334kondo is beyond fucking retarded and criminally negligent for allowed two games in a row to not have a director at the helm
>>507944165Kurt was such a diet Rean and Ash a diet Randy. The new C7 students should've been Altina, Musse and "adult" Tita for nostalgia baiting.
>>507944567Maybe he couldn't find someone in time and didn't want to do it himself. Still isn't it his job as producer to find someone?
>>507944745bro its two games in a row and they had 2 years between kuro 2 and kai to find someone there is no excuse
What is Juna a diet of?
Alicia fucks this. Lucky bitch. >inb4 muh reenWho? That noncommittal cuck? Nope.
>>507944950Maybe Kondo didn't want to hire an outsider to direct too
>>507944950>No director>Couldn't even be bothered to make a trailer for the game>Lowest amount of key art for a Falcom game yet>Kondo spent the whole year talking about how he wanted to rush it out asap so they could do other projects>No post-release interview and Kondo barely even commented on it in the shareholder Q&AFalcom did not give a shit about Kai.
>>507944643altina is diet tio without the fun part
>>507944643Ash is like a weird fusion of Randy and Joshua. Both of whom are in these games, so like... just use them. >>507944981Nobody. Juna's actually unique.
>>507945536shes just girl lloyd
>>507945536>Juna's actually unique.She's a retarded version of Lloyd who they insist on saying she's always been around
>>507945536Juna's uniquely annoying to the point they even acknowledge it ingame by having her tick Campanella off.
>>507945536I like Junie
>>507945667Yeah she's an annoying as fuck retcon character but CS3 is retcons: the game so whatever
>>507945979I don't understand why people pretend to hate her.
>>507946068no. not whatever. she's shit.
>>507945667>they insist on saying she's always been aroundThe retcon really annoyed me about Juna, if they wanted to make it interesting she could've been an SSS fangirl that lies about having a connection to her hero Lloyd. Meeting Tio could've made Rean suspicious about Juna since she'd act like a huge fangirl and later in CS4 she meets Lloyd for real.
>>507946187She was mean to Rean one time and /fg/ hates every character that has ever been mean to him
How much you wanna bet the twats whining about retcons are Towa pedos?
>>507946187I used to hate her but now I just do not care about her.
what retcons will they add to the sky remakes
>>507946785Ash exists
>>507946316She talks as if she was their for the events of the games yet also fangirls like crazy for them. It's bizarre.
>>507946785Ash in HamelRenne gets unrapedThe curse aura possessing Weissman
>>507946369She'd be loved here if that was the case anon
>>507946785Anelace references her bff Rean. >>507946970>Renne gets unrapedOh God, they're 100% gonna do this aren't they?
>>507946785>Cassius mentioning YKF>Ash>Oilvert mentioning his siblings>Mueller mentioning Kurt>>507947539I don't think they'll do that for Renne. And Anelace might only mention Rean in passing if at all.
>>507947603You really think that door's gonna be there when nu-Falcom makes sure to tell you that Ash drinks non alcoholic stuff every time?
>>507947794I think they'd rather not do stuff like that anymore, but with Renne, it's unavoidable unless they're ok with heavily changing backstories in the remake.
>>507947794>nu-Falcom makes sure to tell you that Ash drinks non alcoholic stuff every timeJoshua refuses a drink from Cassius in the prologue of FC.
If they change Renne's backstory how would she even end up in Ouroboros? How would she end up so broken by the time SC happens?If they change Renne's backstory then even the most diehard Falcom apologist will have to admit that they do not care for consistency.>>507948237Joshua does not act like a delinquent.
>>507948347>Renne is saved by Ouroboros from nebulous experiments done by another smaller rival organization>basically Tio's backstory except those experiments make Renne a 200 IQ giga brain with 7 PhDsThere, rape isn't needed.
>>507948513What are the experiments? How does she end up so different from Tio and Van? What makes her so willing and happy to kill people? What causes her lack of care for most human life?
>>507948887She got dicked down haha
>>507948887>What are the experiments? idk they're just Experiments(TM)>How does she end up so different from Tio and Van? What makes her so willing and happy to kill people?Weissman's grooming
Kuro already tried to soften the really bad parts of Renne's backstory by suggesting she just hallucinated it. And all so they could get away with making the sex trafficking victim into fanservice-y waifu bait.
Kondo said (LOL) the scenario is faithful to the original
>>507949186>Kuro already tried to soften the really bad parts of Renne's backstory by suggesting she just hallucinated it.What? Quite literally never happened.
>>507949228>Kondo said (LOL) Kondo said Estelle x Joshua is embarrassing and they'll be retconned as platonic siblings.
>>507949290Just because he said it's embarrassing doesn't mean he won't do it again.
>>507949290Estelle, Kloe & Josette will seethe as Joshy doesn't do anything kek
>>507948960?>>507949014Honestly since Weissman is going to die anyway I can see them shoving her issues onto him.>>507949228I am not going off of anything Kondo said for this. If they want people to trust them they cannot change stuff, especially not a popular character's backstory.Reddit and pussy Yanks might like the change but they are not people you want to focus on.
>>507949579>they cannot change stuff,Other than the combat, yea
If there's dating mechanics, I'll choose Scherezard.
We probably aren't getting bond events
>>507949805If there's dating mechanics the only female romance option might be Anelace, and I'll pick Olivier.
>>507949854Bonding events don't have to be romantic. >>507949906Estelle has yuri vibes with Kloe, Anelace, and Josette. She's got options for pussy. Again though, unless there's a "marry them all" option, fuck harem shit.
>>507950138>KloeStraight.>JosetteStraight.>AnelaceLesbian pedo.
>>507950138Yea, they don't have to be. Still don't think it's happening.
>>507949675Yeah, changing the combat to whatever the most recent game uses seems to be pretty standard for remakes so that was to be expected, whatever your preferences are.
>>507950365It makes sense because falcom always build upon their previous works/assets, unless they completely rework their games, like with CS1, Kuro 1 and Ys X. Makes me wonder if falcom will shake the formula with the final kiseki arc, but mb because of the same engine falcom will just add more stuff to kuro combat which can potentially break the games. Sky remake will basically have the same combat as Kuro (minus ZOC and awakenings), but instead they added arcus' combat links... which makes no fucking sense lore wise in sky.
>>507952985they will just explain it away by saying the characters are all super close.
>>507946648>How much you wanna bet the twats whining about retcons are Towa pedos?I totally forgot an actual Azure remake will somehow incorporate her into the story/side quest
>>507953780It would also make Juna a member of the SSS. Big rewrite
>>507929426She had one. It was a shitty gacha.
>>507953973>It would also make Juna a member of the SSS. Big rewriteMaybe not an actual member but they might give her actual screen time to justify why she loves the SSS so much
>>507954156So a pseudo-member like Rixia
>>507952985>falcom always build upon their previous works/assetsThis is normal, no? I expect few changes to Kuro's combat for future titles. I do wonder why they went back to Sen's links for the remake though.
>>507954430>I expect few changes to Kuro's combat for future titlesWe always get new combat stuff though>why they went back to Sen's links for the remakeI guess enough people asked for that to return. Or someone in Falcom just liked the mechanic.
>>507954324Rixa's actually playable tho I don't think Falcom would make Juna playable unless they plan to do huge rewrites and we know their not doing that for sky so it wouldn't make sense to do that for crossbell.
>>507955061They don't have a reason to do that with Sky though. But they do have a reason with Juna in a Zero/Azure remake
>>507954193God I want to impregnate Shizuna so much....
>>507955425They have even less of a reason to do that with crossbell though, don't actually have to make Juna playable like at all especially since shes in the police academy at the time giving her a side quest seems very likley to be honest
>>507955030I am not denying new mechanics, I just do not think we will see a lot of them being added.Both of those are believable.
>>507955719She knows way too much to only get side quests.
>>507955935she only knows what the people of the city know by CS3
>>507956053The games push her as being super close to the SSS without showing it. One side quest wouldn't really fix that
>>507948887Renne was surrounded by maniacs and weirdos for 5 years. Not strange she would turn out a bit weird.Only reason she isn’t completely messed up is because aLoewe was there to keep her grounded.
>>507942218? Strong opponent? Freedom? New perspective?
>>507941392Sharon should either just be a Reinford maid or appear in Calvard arc with her two associates.Honestly forgot she even associate with Harwood and Letty.
>>507958449There is quite a difference between being a bit weird and not at all caring for most human life.
>>507947539Anelace and Rean literally do not know each other. Rean would still be early on in his training in 1202. I doubt Ka-Fai would've told the other pupils much, if anything about Rean at that point.
>>507958835I did say maniacs
>>507948887Experiment? From what I watch.. it seem they just gave her drugs and used her as a prostitute.Not sure if that what give her powers? (The drugs). Maybe she had them all along and the drugs just enhanced it.
>>507947539The games constantly mention Renne getting raped and every year /fg/ says the next game will retcon itThis general really has the dumbest people on earth
>>507959239I am taking it too literal but you also said she was a bit weird.>>507959532I was questioning that anons replacement backstory idea, not Renne's actual backstory.
>>507954193Please post pictures of her butt in this outfit
Realize Weissmann would never make Joshua an Enforcer (why give him freedom?)Unless he did it to taunt him.
>>507959532I don't remember exactly but I'm pretty sure the cult did experiment on her. That's how she got so intelligent and was able to sync up with Pater-Mater when she later joined Ouroboros.What I don't get is why they'd then just throw such a promising candidate in a brothel to get raped to death. It makes no sense.
>>507960402it was for the banter
>>507959638>The games constantly mention Renne getting rapedThe last time the games mentioned that Renne got raped was Sky 3rd.
>>507960381It's Weissman. He wouldn't be able to resist it with his complex.
>>507960657Kuro 2 came out two years ago.
>>507960657kuro and kuro 2 lol
>>507960381He wasn't a real Enforcer just like Renne, even when Joshua got his memories back he didn't know their plans even though Loewe told Estelle that she'd learn most of their plans by becoming an Enforcer.
>>507960402It was not properly planned out, if it was planned at all.There is no logical reason to send someone who is almost exactly what you want/need to a brothel, especially since they had other kids to send there.
>>507961263>>507960402>There is no logical reason to send someone who is almost exactly what you want/need to a brothelTo humble and break them, you want your child soldiers submissive.
>>507961518That does make sense but they already held power over her. I guess the threat holds more power if she already experienced time there though.
>>507961518>create the most intelligent 6 year old on the planet>mentally break them so they can't do anythingYeah, good plan...
>>507961789>so they can't do anythingHuh? She planned the tea party at 11-12 and was already acting like a double agent.
>>507961904I'm talking about what the cult did to her. Not what she did after Ouroboros rescued her.
>>507961789She would have followed orders, she would likely do anything to avoid going back to the brothel.That is usually how that kind of story goes. They would have some kind of measure to enforce "loyalty" too, maybe shove an explosive inside her or something to ensure that she does not attack cult members.
>>507962225>shove an explosive inside herA choker is easier and fashionable.
>>507962225>shove an explosive inside herPaz...
>>507960402They don’t see her value except as a prostitute.
>>507962338An explosive collar would be too big and obvious.>>507962428I actually forgot they did that. I was not thinking of it being vaginally placed but I suppose that is the quickest way of going about it.
>>507960882Well thanks to new information, Joshua became an Enforcer the exact same year he left the group
>>507960882Renne was a real Enforcer. Got to meet the Grandmaster. Also doubt Enforcers really know anything. (Their only told what they need to know and that usually from the Anguis)
>>507962719>too big and obviousI mean no one cared about Tio's sci-fi cat ears and chest plate.
What surprise me about Renne is how fast she adapted.Got rescued by Joshua and Loewe.Was given a scythe and quickly adapt to being a killerLater got her hands on a giant robot (furthering her combat powers)Pretty sure her “Angel of Slaughter” nickname come from all the murder she committed while looking cute as an angelDid it for 5 years until she got a hug from Estelle.So she okay, I’m out and left the group.What a hug can do.
Wow. Maybe leave the fanfics to fanfic anon because the shit here sounds retarded. How do you people come up with worse ideas than what we already have?
kek
>>507963124I feel like someone asked about her ears in Zero. I am assuming the chest plate is just armour, if it is then there is no need to question that.>>507963371Hugs are the ultimate weapon.
>>507963371>So she okay, I’m out and left the group.Her being groomable and impressionable is one thing, her leaving Estelle after like a year was the biggest bullshit in this series. She should've stayed in Liberl at the Bright household and maybe went to study at Jenis.
>>507963626Ego, frustration, teenage angst, and a lack of talent.
>>507957469>One side quest wouldn't really fix thatexactly hence why Falcom would probably add a lot more side quests for her
>>507963626>How do you people come up with worse ideas than what we already have?Very easily actually. Just get mad about something but don't actually think.
>>507964870Is anyone here angry? Everyone seems normal to me.
>>507965127Here's a test: look at a picture of Kondo and tell me how punchable it is.
>>507965781KekI have yet to see an image of Kondo that makes me want to attack him in any way. I doubt one will ever make me feel like that to be honest.
What about Kato-san
>>507966223I only found out he ever existed maybe half a year ago? I enjoy the Kato's house jokes but I do not care about the guy, even in death.
>>507966223Architect of mass exploitation of Falcomfaggots.
Estelle mocking Joshy's tiny dicklet while she rides Rean's tachi.
Teen impregnation of Laura
>>507969486Rean cannot even handle a girl touching him.
>>507969964You think he has a choice?
>>507969618Laura can't impregnate you, dumb lesbo
>>507970304Estelle femdom does sound nice but they barely know each other.
Class VII girls' personalities that would change from being molested while young?
>>507970621why do you assume that's fanfic anon
>>507861647>every choice gives you a different outcome or a dialogue like western devs dolemao
Very much looking forward to returning to comfy bracer antics. Always annoyed me that every party after Estelle's had increasingly flimsy excuses to copy that quest structure.
Total Bracer Death
>>507970960All I can think of is Emma being a lot more shy and restrained and Alisa being more bitchy to more people. I cannot say I have any idea on how to write a believable victim.
>>507973045To me it feels like they all had valid reasons to do so.
>>507974270Said reasons invariably boil down to directly copying bracers. They even have lines straight up admitting that. The Guild should sue for infringement, since protecting workers from unfair competition IS what a guild is for after all.
>>507972751? never played alpha protocol or any other older obsidian games zoomie? hell even mass effect is the perfect example of pick your waifu but done right.
good morning or afternoon i slept too much
>>507933182>>507933894la-chan cutie>>507935452>>507937014a-chan cutie>>507949186no they wont change it
>>507978287very cute
Any "softening" of Renne's backstory in the newer games is just a result of Falcom trying to keep the age rating down as CERO gets even more strict.
>>507978549they never change the story if she does not talk about it i think it makes sense she wouldnt want to mention those details
>>507978549I didn't play Kuro 2, but did they really change/soften Renne's backstory?
>>507976383I like AP personally but I highly doubt a lot of people played it as much. Especially the minigame where you have to shut off alarms. Fuck me those can get annoying at times when you're trying to do a stealth run. Also fuck that game for not letting you romance Sis.
>>507979609no they never did but you learn some more details about it
>>507979839Alpha protocol is probably the best rpg where it acknowledges your choice and actions.>Also fuck that game for not letting you romance Sis.Yeah, but romance was extremelly undercooked in AP either way.
>>507978287I did not expect anyone to request Yume.Does anyone actually have the models he ports or is it just the preview images?>>507980265Maybe I should have played this game.
>>507978287She is so cute. One of my favorite characters in Trails
lmao, get fucked Falcom. I hope Proud Nordics flops.
>>507982427Just finished my pirated copy, bring it on Falcom. Proud Nordics here we gooOoOOoOoOoOoO!
Su-chan and Na-chan! Cute and canon!
>>507880868Gotta say the character model improvements were so good. Just sad that all the women basically have the same base, except for obvious exceptions.
>>507981034>Maybe I should have played this game.It's extremely clunky, but it's actually part of its charm. I think SEGA returned Alpha protocol back to steam.
>>507987116Oh, I had no idea it was on pc, cheers.
Just got the Japanese Kai files from the PS4 version. Not sure if NISA will release Kai next year, but here are the files if someone wants to do a translation from the Japanesehttps://files.catbox.moe/n4wus5.zip
So we can absolutely file Trails under "go woke go broke", considering that if Daybreak performed as well as the shills pretended, they would be hyping Kai 2.
>>507996584i guess so? idk
Can't wait for more Estelle
Sky is woke
Don't care, can't wait for more Estelle
really
>>507996584The series was always "woke" from the beginning, its just that japan really likes the generic school setting with the generic black haired boy. But the series became so saturated that even Rean didn't boost sales
>>507997724>series was always wokeRichard was right and pacifism didn't work in the long term.Erebonia arc is in large part about patriotism and traditions being great despite it being set in EreboniaCrossbell nationalism is considered good even though DieterThe nobles turned out to be by and large good guys by CS3, and CS1-2 Noble Alliance were mostly just Cayenne and Albarea intimidating the smaller houses into compliance.Calvard was retconned up and down to make it woke instead of nuanced. (Lack of racial unity lowering social cohesion, Gramheart winning on anti-immigration and leading the "Patriot Party")
>>507997724nta but that stuff is liked outside japan too
>>507998493>Erebonia arc is in large part about patriotism and traditions being great despite it being set in EreboniaYeah and those traditions involve every woman wishing every dude was gay. And the main protagonist and his friend are implied to be gay
>>507871374This location is so beautiful
>>507998695>yeah well if I introduce my shipping headcanon in the game then it's a lot different, checkmate!
>>507998695holy headcanon
>>507804125The actual game looks good. This screenshot does not do it justice
Richard was based.
>>507998897Haha, yeah, it's truly beautiful...
I must admit I don't get the whole thing with feminism in Sky and "girl power"Estelle isn't some amazing hero, she is distinctly weaker than Joshua, they have Kloe completely fumble trying to talk down the Empire from invading Liberl and need to be bailed out by Olivert and Cassius, and would have been murdered by Joshua's mind control at the end of 2 if it wasn't for a contingency plan set out by Joshua and Kevin.The lines are cringy, but I don't know how accurate they are. Assuming they're accurate, though, whta happens in the story doesn't strike me as woke.The big ??????s are Alicia accusing Richard of sexism which makes her look like a woke whiner when he doesn't care about that shit and doesn't mention it once, and the out of nowher erandom of "the far right" supporting Richard.
>>507999434You seem to be in denial
>>507999434>feminism in Sky and "girl power"Isn't that solely because of xseed and the fans' interpretation of English Estelle?
>>507999434Sky heavily pushes girl power. Especially in FC.
>>507999434>I don't know how accurate they are.Not very accurate.
Nothing you say matters, Estelle won.
>>507999434>"the far right" supporting Richard.HOLY BASED
>>507999356It looks good though
>>507999010He was in power for 10 minutes and sent the country to shit
>>508000118For a Sega Dreamcast game made in 1998.
>>508000135It was rigged
>>507995946Don't need it will just play it in chinigger/gooknese as always.
>>507999597>>507999863Please respodn to the points
>>507901686Is Agnes Aidios?
>>508001253No I don't think so
>>507857989lmao. I forgot this retard's name and it's killing me, no I won't look in the wiki. '-'
>>508001575She hasn't done anything and I only remember her because of her thick French accent
>>508001253Dude, Agnes is comically overrated in the power levels.She needed to use all the Chaos Emeralds and couldn't even stop the Sept-Terrion fully.She is nowhere near what we've seen with say KeA or AZOTH.
>>508001992>She needed to use all the Chaos EmeraldsHoly kek
>>508001731French accent? What?
>>508001992Her chaos emeralds seem to be stronger than Sherrid's
>>508001253No, she a descendant of homunculus created by Epstein based on Sheena Dirke's DNA to be a back up plan to halt the time reset, basically her mom and grandma were able to reproduce, but it came with a downside - short life span.
>>508002346In the ENG dub she sounds like a French person speaking English
>>508002921Oh, I completely forgot NISA released it to be honest.
>>508002908Okay. That makes sense
Finally finished Ys X...Honestly the first half was extremely boring, but the game pick ups in the 2nd half like crazy. The final battle scene with Rollo and Lila was kino and I'm glad that falcom started putting so much effort into the final battles like with Kuro 2 and Kai too.That said, is there any new game+ exclusive content? I thought there was a teaser about Adol going to the North Pole to rescue Karja or something? I never found it.
>>508003829>is there any new game+ exclusive content?Don't think so. Ys X is getting new content/story next year though
>>508003829go back to the first dungeon way at the end and interact with the shining monolith thing
you mean the lighthouse in carnac?

>>508001172For as much as it pushes girl power, it also pushes anime friendship working together shit. Sky leans into the girl power angle a lot but it doesn't make the men completely useless, just that every evil man has to hate women. They made the main villains of FC sexist men who are just dumb pawns.
>>508005151The only guy who they made sexist was Dunan. Richard doesn't give a shit, he's too pragmatic, and has a woman who worships the ground he walks on
