Your next arc's protagonists
>Estelle Bright>is actually dumb as rockslmao epic writing Falcuck
nadia rizz
>Final game released in 2032>31 Cypress TreesHOLY KINO
>>559988107You forgot to post a picture of OUR HERO, Rean Schwarzer
>>559988107You already proved yourself a foid before. Now post tits.
>>559988107Cedric too stronk, he needs nerf.
>>559988107Trails is about to become the lowest selling Falcom IP
>>559988107still going on about you pegging fantasies, ma'am?
Five (5) (V) (Go) (五) (ご) cute facts about Towacutest!:1. She is canonically atowable!2. She is mai Kiseki-fu!!3. I love her!!!4. Towacutest!!!!
>>5599893895. Not even Angelica can withstand Towa's butt that can fart real loud!!!!!
>>559989459Not even Angelica can withstand YOUR butt that can fart real loud!!!!!
Older Adol probably means he will just be 25 or a bit older since ys 9
>>559990069They probably just said that to preemptively answer all the people asking for an Ys V remake
Kai 2 will be Their Game and there's nothing you can do about it.
>kiseki only has one game left after kai 2Thanks Kondom. The Calvard arc got fucked hard, and now the series as a whole is going to have a terrible rushed conclusion just because Falcom needed to do remakeslop.
>>559990462They won't even appear in Kai 2
>>559990573The Kinovard arc fucked hard and the series is going to have a fantastic conclusion because of it
>>559988107Honestly, this would be an easy out for them to be able to show all the Anguis and Enforcers at once so they wouldn't have to worry about showing the remaining members over the next 6 years or whatever
>>559990750The fantastic conclusion in question:>it was all le simulation
>>559990573I can't tell if you're serious or trolling but 'announcing final game in 50th anniversary' doesn't mean 'there is only one game left'. Like they're gonna make Trails games between Horizon 2 and 2031
All of you will die of natural causes before 2032. Why even bother?
>>559991157Many of us will be haunting Kondo long after the fact
>>5599893896. È una ragazza di una ONG per l'immigrazione!!!!!!
>>559990573One arc left not one game left.Who knows how many games we finna get for that last arc.
2-3 if the six year timeline is to be beleived.
Kondo here, the final arc will feature a 15+ year timeskip and follow a new Enforcer within Ouroboros, a war orphan from the Far East trained by Cedric in the ways of war. You will recruit various characters across Zemuria, even the children of past party members, as you lie and cheat your way into bringing the Eternal Recurrence Plan into fruition. Please look forward to the final arc, Trails toward Dusk.
Daily reminder that Ban-san sucked Rean's penis (literally)
>>559991306Sei una ragazza di una ONG per l'immigrazione!!!!!!
>>559991449>15 years later>Towa is still cute
>dragon slayer>new ys>3rd remake>zero remake>azure remake>cs1 remake>cs2 remake>then after all those games the last proper kiseki game which will of course be routeshit and have a new iteration of the marchen garten*laughs*
>>559989389You're still around? Damn.
>>559992894Why wouldn't I be?It's not like Towa stopped being the cutest.
Juna owes me sex
>>559992448I'm actually fine with the routes format.
1 party.4 characters.Stays the same the entire game.Don't have to constantly do entire characters' equips through the whole game. Just have to manage four characters' equips.Do it, Falcom.Do it, faggots.
>>559992894kys tourist
>>559993741>Wanting the final arc of Kiseki to revolve around 4 nobodies instead of our heroes Can't you make your own series instead of ruining others?
they'll convince makoto shinkai, yuzo koshiro, and tetsuya takahashi to help make the final kiseki game
>>559993879>Wanting the final arc of Kiseki to revolve around 4 nobodiesI didn't say THAT.Make it Bestelle, Joshua, Kevin and Ries.
So we're here for 6 more years huh?
>>559994004The doctor didn't even give me half that time...
>>559993983Wait, no.Bestelle, Joshua, Renne and Olivier.Yeah. That's it. That's the good stuff.
>>559993983>Only Sky characters No. If we're getting old protagonists it has to be a route game with Estelle, Lloyd, Rean and Van.
>>559993983>>559994159guess skybab can't move on from sky after all
The final game can absolutely not have Rean in it. That would ruin it.
The final game NEEDs to have Rean in it. He's our hero.
>The final game NEEDs to have Rean in it. He's our hero.
>>559994680Skybab... Calm down, okay?
>>559994680>ICE that builtkek delusional
>>559993983>>559994159>the last game NEEDS to be a sloppy rehash of the sky games!No thanks. Falcom is already too lazy as it is.
Honestly I don't want a new cast I'd prefer fleshed out characters focusing on the shit happening instead of finding out about some guy's terrible past and how saving cats and handing out newspapers fixes him for 3 games.
>>559995297We'll be doing regular side quests anyway.
cant wait to see how they're gonna justify the ouroboros mc doing lost cat and food recipe side quests
I can see the final scene of Kiseki now. A massive party is happening at the Bright household. (Mostly) everyone is there. All the main Sky group, all of the SSS, every member of Class VII, the Solutions Office, Cao and assorted Heiyue members etc. etc.Suddenly Cassius bursts into the house with a letter addressed to the saviors of Zemuria and the protagonists all look at each other before heading on their next adventure that we won't see.
>>559995416What would be the harm in it? They're already pretty much saturday morning cartoon villains who wouldn't actually hurt a fly
Calvard's engine is growing on me bros it's kinda aesthetic
please look forward to Trails around the Garten
People have been so conditioned by Falcom's meandering that now they can't fathom 3 whole +100h games being able to wrap up the series lolThat's a whole trilogy, the LotR movies can tell a satisfying journey in 12 hours
>>559995416haha, shirley loves cats
>>559996897thats because we know that falcom waste so much time on bullshit for each game that we know it'll take more than that unless they completely change their approach to how they make these games
>>559996897It's not that it can't be done, it's that Falcom aren't capable of it.
>>559988107>Impregnates a cute redhead psychopathThat's what I like to call a Cedric moment. He must grow even stronger. Where's Fie? She looked DTF
>>559996897does lotr have comprehensive food reviews and chasing scammers into sewers every chapter?
>>559997053pretty much, the fact that falcom consider 30h of saving cats up trees and collecting materials sidequests essential to the experience (to the point where they just push the plot into the next title if they can't fit both in) means that it's legitimately impossible
>>559995297While it's true that Falcom isn't capable of developing new characters anymore, making new games revolve around old characters is how you get shitshows like Renne's arc being rehashed for no reason in Kuro 2, and Kevin being completely butchered in Kai.
>Cedric-sama is so cool
>>559997272That's just because Sky characters suck.
They'll wrap up the series in a few years but you're never gonna see half the continent, you'll never meet the majority of the S rank bracers, most of the remaining Enforcers and Anguis won't be revealed and many events are just going to happen off screen.
>>559997272nufalcom is a small indie company only capable of copy-pasting random anime archetypes and they ran out of those four games ago, please understand
>>559997382Why do we even need to meet the S rank bracers to begin with? Trails is meant to be a story, not an encyclopedia of Zemuria
>>559997382And it's all because of Van. Fuck you Van. You killed Kiseki.
>>559997382s-rank bracers and unknown enforcers will all be killed off-screen fighting each other and the most we will get is one line of dialogue about it
>>559997451Why did the series need to be 15+ games long if we weren't meant to see all the continent had to offer? 90% of its filler anyway so it's not like they were using all that time on more meaningful things. Falcom has time for 40 hours of pointless side quests per game but no time for the worldbuilding apparently.
think of all the countries we missed out on seeing by spending too much time revisiting places in erebonia and strolling around edith
these depressed bitches will spend their days concocting negative scenarios just so they can get upset at their own inventionswild shit
>>559992448The route shit killed the Calvard arc for me. Kuro 1 was the only decent game in the arc because it had no shit like this.
>>559997576Writing something consequential to the plot requires cross referencing 14 games worth of lore, writing "Dumango the NPC needs his cat taken to the vet" does not
>>559997787realistically we didn't miss out on anything, reusing old characters and locations saves enough dev time/money that falcom can afford to keep making games in an incredibly niche series like this
Reverie showed Falcom is able to set aside cat quests when they want to focus on the story and it was a great game
>>559997812same the route shit just makes everything feel too disconnected and having to rotate equipment between multiple parties is just an annoying pain in the asshajimari ruined this series
I hate tourist season.
everyone was a tourist at some point so you just hate your past self desu
>>559997991>it was a great game
>>559998015You get more than enough resources to create a near full set of equipment for each party member.
>>559997456>*Rean. You killed Kiseki.falcom wasted 3 games to glaze him. after the sales dropoff, 2 more & didn't even get a 1/8 of P5 joker's popularity achieved in just 1 game. Even the Calvard games is just damage control to mitigate the damage rean done to the series.
>>559998215Vankid... You only have your protagonist's arc to blame for Kiseki dying.
>>559997451We didn't meet a single S rank after all these years yet Falcom is more than happy to expose us to dogshit characters like Saara, Shaheena, Sherid, Fan Lu, Ashen, and Gaolang.
>>559997382We have so many nations to visit still: Remiferia (mobile shit game doesn't count), North Ambria, Ored, Leman, Arteria, Elsaim, Valis and not to forget Eastern Zemuria which is unexplored territory. Fucking series could go on for two more decades, yet Kondom decided to kill their only decent selling franchise. Guess after Kato died he decided to ruin Falcom. Like literally everything other than Kiseki is mid as fuck. Old Ys at least had good music, but with that gone they have NOTHING to offer other than Kiseki. Kyoto Xanadu will sell 20k tops in Japan, Dragon Slayer as new revived IP will sell like shit. What now? Remake Crossbell and the CS arc? Probably nice for newfags, but most long time fans don't really care going back to the past. The games were perfect as they are. And newfag money alone won't keep Falcom afloat. Just fucking continue Kiseki endlessly and make up the plot as you go.
Wouldn't be surprised if they finish the main story they'll do spin-off arcs in between Sky and whatever the final game is titled, doubt they have a plan for the next entry of the Legend of Heroes in general
>>559988029So the final arc will be in Elsaim right?
>>559998301>All eastern charactersStop pretending to be Jacobin.
>>559998376valis seems to be quite important to the plot so maybe there
>>559998326The remakes are massively outselling the new games, Trails wouldn't be getting cut short like this if fans weren't bleeding off and new blood isn't coming in. They're a public company with profit reports and shareholders after all
>>559998376It'll be the Free Cities.
>>559998361Dumb idea. The interesting premise of Kiseki was to have a progressing story. Or rather a continuously developing world. Spin off shit is boring as fuck.
>>559998326I think there's a decent chance they explore the free cities in another game since they wont shut up about them in kai. Could potentially even be in kai 2 since they set up some big mysteries in Valis
>>559998490>The remakes are massively outselling the new gameRemake slop only sold in Chink land, anon.
>>559998376Final arc will be in Arteria with returning character Anelace as the MC, Falcom already confirmed this.
>>559998376This would be the biggest fuck you they could possibly do outside making it take place in Crossbell.
personally I'd want the final arc to span every country they did. Give the game an airship and an overworld and basically be pseudo final fantasy except the game assets took 30 years to deliver.
>>559998736they already have arab oliver, maybe the final protag will be arab rean?
>>559998662>random chart pulled out of anon's assIn reality sales are sales, no matter where they're from. That's why the remakes are being continued and the series is not
>>559998278>>559998175
>>559998484unironically yes, it'll be in Valis complete with a massive heiyue cabal of mary sues running everything again
>>559999074>Falcom already confirmed this.You are just replacing old fags with new fags. The question is if new fags will make Falcom more money than old fags. The downward trajectory in Japan will only to continue. Especially considering that Crossbell wasn't as popular in Japan. Meanwhile newfags just get hooked with the Sky censorlsop remake and keep playing the old games instead of waiting (many such cases btw.). Remake sales will plummet because no one will buy them since old fags don't care and newfags moved on to the old games.
>>559999370so-called oldfags aren't buying the new games enough to begin with, so Falcom's solution of continuing with the remakes until they stop making money and pivoting to different IPs after ending Trails is the right move
Good to see Kiseki dying. You guys always gloated about your shit series and you're getting your just desserts.
>>559999816yeah I bet you're looking forward to the Zestiria remaster LOL
Ragecuck asshole status?
>>559999916Lower your tone when addressing TalesGODS
>>559999971He must be really happy that Kiseki is dying...
>>559999483It's a foolish strategy. You are basically showing the middle finger to your old audience and bet all your money that the new audiences will avoid the old games and wait for the remakes. Keep in mind: Kiseki is only relevant as long as its story is alive and running. But as soon as they finish the appeal will drop. That's the nature of an ongoing story. No one will speculate anymore about the mysteries or Ouroboros' plot because it all has been resolved. Old fags will stop keeping up the hype which in turn will kill all discussion and hype. Betting all your money on remakes for a basically killed off series is the most dumb idea Kondom could make. Instead: keep the main series running and alternate between main entries and remakes for the next two or so decades.
>>559998376It'll take place in whatever the fuck the blacked-out country is in this map. I find it weird they never revealed the name of that country through the entirety of the series so far.

people will never learn huhyeah take Kondo's words at face value he has never lied
>>560000019>best selling kiseki title just came out>it's dyinghaha...that's our Ragecuck!
>>560000143isn't that where the heiyue are from? it had better be full of gigachad superhuman genius masterminds given how they've basically taken over everything relevant in calvard/crossbell society
>>560000174But after her game released Falcom announced that they're killing Kiseki.Doesn't that mean Estelle killed Kiseki? That whore needs to apologise with her body.
>>560000174these are just Steam numbers THOUGH, and the JP audience are all playing on PS5
>>560000291calm down ragecuck, it's gonna heal, give it time.
>>560000237Falcom announced that they're going to reveal the last Kiseki game in 2032. Our days became numbered after Estelle's remake.
>entire global market>no competitor for the month>no entry barrier, first game in the series>barely 200k sales >not a single award >no one talking about it a month later, no staying power>0 cultural impact beyond the first week of paid streamers>virtually no interest in the sequel lmao Estelle made normies think Trails is a sissified series like Atelier so they gave it a wide berth thanks for making things worse, ugly Estellethe one positive is Falcom learned their lesson and know female MCs are a death sentence
>>560000392You can't cover up that Falcom announced Kiseki's end announcement after Estelle's first game. Estelle killed Kiseki. This is why you don't let women be protagonists.
>>560000414>>560000528All good things come to an end.
They announced well before 1st that there was a planned end to Kiseki and that the series was already well past its halfway point.A planned end to Kiseki was NOT new news and anyone claiming it was is gaslighting.
>>560000591Calvard was meant to be the first arc of the second half of Kiseki, there was more to tell that was cut short after Estelle's remake.
>>560000528damn when you put it that way... Estelle is a massive girlfailure haha
>>560000685If the timeline towards the last Kiseki game has indeed been accelerated, the clear reason would be declining sales of the woke, western-pandering Calvard arc.Kondo has very clearly stated in the past that a series that is no longer profiting will be ended.The Calvard arc's sales have been plummeting because it's an arc of bad games.
>>560000291>Doesn't that mean Estelle killed Kiseki?The irony: Falcom will likely bet their money on remakes after they kill off the series, only to realize newfags just play the old games because they want to see how the story goes on. All newfag streamers I checked who played Sky slop remake jumped right into OG SC and decided to not wait for remakes. One slut already plays Crossbell because she binged OG SC and 3rd after she finished Skyslop remake. Falcom totally doesn't understand modern binge shit mentality. People won't wait for fucking remakes. Sales for each succeeding remake will drop more and more beacause people will play the old shit. LMAO
>she killed the possibility of a Calvard remakehaha...
>>560000508>outsold the rest of the series put together in one monthGODstelle won.
Grim reminder that we had a MC for an arc for three games that were so underwhelming that they just deleted him for marketing and put Agnes and Elaine instead.
>>560000839its not woke, calvard has the hottest women in the series
>>560000906Agnes MC would had saved Calvard.
>>560000839Calvard has outsold the Sky remake in Japan so that can't be it. It was only after First that they announced the end days for Kiseki in a more tangible year. Kiseki had so much more to give... AND ESTELLE KILLED IT! FUCK ESTELLE
>>560000873Falcom had to pre-emptively warn everyone they expect to operate at a loss this year since Estelle's flop of a sequel is all they have lol
>>560000954>not woke because of the hottest women
>>560000906
Estelle needs to naked dogeza now as an apology.
>>560001126>proving the point
>>560000954based. Let's check our privilege together.
>>560001335it doesnt say that in the text at all though
>>560001263How the hell did they fumble a mc with cool kamen rider gimmick with OnoD voice so hard.That shit had money plastered all over it as a premise.
I think gachashit and vtumorshit are underappreciated reasons for the decline in Kiseki sales in Japan.The Nips are too fucking busy with gachacancer and vtumorcancer to bother with other entertainment.
>>560001507they didnt actually commit to the premise
>>560001507*raughs*
You guys are talking as if Kiseki is dead or some shit when we have a whole six more years at least of new content and new games. Probably longer if they decide to remake Cold Steel too. It's going to be an unironic golden age now that they're freed from the shackles of having to continually set up new stories and shit. Lighten up
>>560001507Putting a no dimes midcarder with a main eventer gimmick just doesn't work, brother.
>>560000906You wouldn't get it. Van exemplifies masculine security and power. He doesn't have to fight for his spot. His spot is HIS and only his. You know what happens when Estelle isn't forcefully placed front and center? People forget about her. You play Zero and Azure and you forget Estelle is in the game unless she shows up.You play Cold Steel IV and Reverie and you get surprised every time you sort through your party list and notice Estelle is there. She NEEDS her presence constantly reaffirmed to exist.Van? Van is a man's man. He is security and power. When a new piece of art releases? Everyone, every single person, looks for Van. Everyone asks where Van is. Everyone talks about Van.He doesn't NEED to be present. He doesn't NEED to be reaffirmed. He already IS. Innately. The security and masculinity that Van exudes naturally and effortlessly makes him eternal.He doesn't need to helm every appearance. When you see Agnès, you think of Van. When you see Elaine, you think of Van. When you see Renne, you think of Van. When you see Shizuna, you think of Van. When you see Rean, you think of Van. When you see Estelle, you think of Van.That's what being iconic means. His presence is NOT needed. The mere idea of Van exists eternally. He will always be present in your mind even if he's not in the art piece. During every single scene without Van, you are wondering where Van is and what he is doing.There's levels to this. Van is the man. He is excellence personified. He is eternal.
>>560001768>You guys are talking as if Kiseki is dead or some shit>Lighten upBro they're just trolling.
>>560001768That's like three games. It's terrible Estelle killed Kiseki.
>>560001263
>>560001950>me whenever Van is on the screen
>>560002101We've had a Trails game every year since 2020 except 2023
>>560001023I would call Agnes mommy.Yeah, I said it.
>>560002245Remakes aren't new Kiseki games and will most likely continue past 2032. New games are only coming out every 2-3 years now.
>>560001967huge pop
>>560001768realistically>final Calvard game (2027)>new arc trilogy (28-30)>final new arc game (32)>grand finale game (33/34)
>>560002381nah, they can hire a bigger team to work on the remakes separately thanks to their success. we are unironically back to a Falcom golden age
>>560001950>Gets big leagued by the women of his own arc.Midcarder is crediting him too much.
call me when the discord niggers leave
>>560002627Stop shitposting based on a single piece of art, guys. It's not funny
>>560002590>Falcom>Hiring extra handsThey always cut corners, anon. That shit ain't happening.
Freedom will be waiting when the Kiseki series dies.
>>559990223>>559990069I'll take it. There's just not many places they can keep sandwiching younger adventures and I'm happy to just get back to going forward
>>560002627Keep shitposting based on a single piece of art, guys. It's funny
>>560002590We're in a new dark age. Kiseki has a terminal illness.
>>559988029>final entry in the Trails seriesI'll believe it when I see it.
>>560002803NTA but when you have people like the blogposter, the Altina and Towa posters, etc. that just keep going out of spite even after being told the entire general hates that shit... you don't get to ask others to stop lol no point trying to be civil and pleasant when you have those selfish ritualposting pricks ruining the general daily, might as well have fun with it
>>560002950honestly, it's for the best. I know the series prefers to keep references to a minimum in general, but it does create a lot of inconsistencies when events retroactively happen, and it's a bit jarring when characters from the more recent games in terms of release date are shoehorned in (like the romun governess from celceta) at the expense of character from older games which chronologically happened closer
>>560003284Given that they went to the trouble to introduce her in two subsequent games I was kind of hoping she'd pay into something down the road but then the next two games had not so much a mention
What's the today's hallucination?
>>560002191will van finish his story though?
>>560003526That Kiseki is good.
>>560003465I suspect that someday they'll do a game covering the Romun capital and include her, some of the backstory from the Romun events in VI, some of the lore from IX and it'll be a marginally more connected game than previous ones. It'd only make sense to do post-IX as well, so Adol would have to be at least 25
>>560002803It's really because Reantacos are trying to deflect from how he looks like a complete faggot in that artwork
>>560003723Vankid... Calm down, okay?
>>560003465She was mentioned in IX as well as Leo. Griselda's problem is that she's the kind of character that should show up when Adol goes to Romn.
>>560003723Van and Joshua are unironically too masculine for that art. Both Rean and Lloyd look like they just buck broken
>>560002803It's funny though unless you're a sperging Vankid.
>>560003690I wonder if we'll ever run out of regions
>>560003526Estelles game selling well killed kiseki. The usual nonsense.
>>560001768>Falcom announced to kill off the series in 6 years>It's the golden age for KisekiNo amount of gaslighting can make this a logical conclusion to me.
I thought Reverie was going to be their big endgame
The golden age of Kiseki ended when they jumped the shark by switching to (bad) full 3D and going full Persona.
plans changethat'll be $9.99
>>560001438What do you think "It's easy to forget somewhat what sort of position she's in within society... Whe nit comes down to it, my problems pale in comparison to hers" means
>>560004005I really doubt it.>IX and X had a bunch of hints about Ispani and Britai which previously wasn't mentioned much>Greek>Romn>wherever Adol is from which I think to be in the not-Swiss alps>Steldum>something in the not-middle east>Celceta mentioned that Adol ended up discovering Ys-America>expand the map to not-china/russia
We had a good two days without his Vankid bullshit but I guess this faggot’s noose came undone and he is back
>>560004437>everyone who likes Van is one personare you mentally ok?
>>560004437>This faggot think he's any better than them.
>>560004580leave vankidfag alone... it's not nice to bully mentally ill...
>>560004337I'm honestly still surprised they haven't done a Not-Japan
It's time for Zwei IIIDo it Falcom, you fucking cowards
Bring back Brandish
>haven't explored more than half of the map yet>kills off the seriesHow to ruin your 45th anniversary celebration Kondom.
>>560005083I'd love to see those games remade, especially Brandish II. Maybe one day...
>>560005240It took them over a dozen games to get to where they are. There is nothing worth exploring anywhere. You'd get a pack of morons sitting in a building talking about Orbal for 40 hours.
>>560004771I mostly want a game where they explain his relationship with Ladoc at the start of VI. Since Terra would have to be involved it'd have to be post-V as well, and the last gap in his ages from 16 to 24 is him at 22, where he meets ladoc
>>560005373You sound burnt out. Maybe Kiseki isn't for you.
>>559995416They're undercover....
>>560005019>>560005083No one cares for Falcom's mid shit. Only thing Falcom set itself apart from the competition is Kiseki. Even Ys is shit aside from VIII and IX.
>>560005240It's not killing off to finish a series
>>559996897I can fathom it actuallyI can't fathom Falcom doing it the way they are now if they think having people run around Edith for 4 games (you know it's 4) is a good idea
>>560005820>No one cares about the interesting games. Just discount comfy personaand you wonder why these things keep getting worse
>>559996897>That's a whole trilogy, the LotR movies can tell a satisfying journey in 12 hoursLord of the Rings could also make each individual movie feel like it had some kind of satisfying payoff.
>>559998326I think the final arc will be in the Far East actually. With the final game itself being in Arteria>We have so many nations to visit still: Remiferia (mobile shit game doesn't count), North Ambria, Ored, Leman, Arteria, Elsaim, Valis I know mobile game shit doesn't count in your eyes but to Falcom, they've covered Remeferia and North Ambria in mobile games. I'm not saying I like it but I imagine in their minds they don't have to go there.Do we actually need to see all these places though? That would unnecessarily extend the games I think and we really need to be getting to a conclusion
>>560005824Still haven't visited most places anon. Remiferia, North Ambria, Ored, Leman, Arteria, Elsaim, Valis. Fuck, the entirety of the eastern part is under fog of war. So yeah, ending it with the next arc is killing the series off prematurely. You could easily make 3 or 4 more arcs.
>>560004703I don’t think so, I know so.
>>560001023They really should have had Agnes as the MC but then they couldn't do harem shit
>>560006119>I think and we really need to be getting to a conclusionI don't play the games for the plot conclusion. I don't think that's even the strength of the series. The world building is. So visiting the other places and extending the world building is what I am looking forward to more than the overarching plot shit. Never cared much about it.
>>560001507Well that's what happens when you forget to actually treat the MC as the main character after the first game.Honestly, this is all Daybreak 2's fault. I think if we went from DB1 to Horizon, this wouldn't be that much of an issue
trails of subhumans will be ending soon, a lot of you subhumans better get ready to off yourselves off the earth.
>>560006339>The world building is.Oh piss off. There's no real world building here. There's a glut of redundant and superfluous dialogue with zero personal growth or plot. World Building is how hacks trick morons into not noticing they didn't write a story.
>>560005019>>560005083It's actually time to bring back Popful Mail>>560005240Am I the only one who feels like we don't actually need to see every single one of these places? This desire to be everywhere only makes sense if you think there shouldn't be an ending in sight but Falcom already barely handles the regions they already have and you want to extend that more?
>>560006145Why do we need to visit every single country?
I'm glad we can stop talking about Trails soon (in 7 years) and talk about other things. Like Osaka Xanadu
>>560006657>This desire to be everywhere only makes sense if you think there shouldn't be an ending in sightI don't want an ending because I don't care. I just want to visit all the places and keep getting more Kiseki for the next decades.
>>560006667Because I need to have constant comfy hang out with friends HAH HAH.
I think we still have 4 or 5 kiseki games IMOKai II 2027Storm Arc 1 2029Storm Arc 2 2030Grand finale 2032(i call it storm arc because it will likely be a combination of the sept terrion of wind and water, henceforth storm).I also think the Storm arc in spite of covering 2 sept terrions will be on the shorter end since it will most likely take place in Leman / Arteria so it will have a similar scope to Crossbell and Liberl arc so 2 games are enough.Then again Fapcoom could just be releasing a new kiseki every single year from 2027 to 2032 and we will have a four games Storm act or a grand finale in 2 parts.
Akihabara Xanadu hype
>>560006339>I don't play the games for the plot conclusion.It's not something I 'play for' but I would like the stories to have a narrative end.>The world building is. The world building is as good as it is because it's an ongoing narrative. However, narratives need to actually progess to something. That's what separates Trails and something like Ys. We can't just be dicking around and wondering when the next plot point will happen forever
The next arc will restore the feeling and Kondo will order 3 more arcs A 2050 ending makes more senseTRUST THE PLAN
>>560006850That'll just be a less based Akiba's Trip
>>56000669810 years after Kiseki ends there'll be more active Kiseki discussion than Xanadu discussion.
>>560007003Hell, I think there will still be more active Kiseki discussion than Xanadu when Kyoto Xanadu actually comes
>>559987375>>559988107CHADric is already strong as fuck, so it'd make sense for him to fight Ouroboros tier fighters in his first game.It's going to be fun if we reach the final game and our protagonists STILL lose all of their quartz and have to collect it anew.
>>560006145Remiferia and North Ambria were both covered in Gacha. Yeah it sucks especially for the latter but technically they both were covered.Ored we will likely see more in Kai II if Falcom decide to add any new contents at all.Leman and Arteria will be likely the last arcElsaim and Valis fuck off, I've actually had enough of this stuff in Kuro/Kai, I can't anymoreJurai which you didn't even mention haha is likely never everOf all those north ambria is the one who is the most likely to appear in the main series given that there is still the plot point around the salt pale that has yet to be resolved and also a bunch of important characters are tied to it. Though it is very unlikely.
Discussing Trails any further after the last game comes out will just be fanfic.
>>560007292>Leman and Arteria will be likely the last arcArteria will probably be the final game itself but I think the last arc will be the Far East. They talk about it all the time, it'd be a perfect excuse to have Shizuna, it would probably be part of Sept-Terion of Water and more importantly above anything else, there's 0 way Falcom is passing up the chance to do a region that has notJapan in it
>>560007424The east isn't Japan. Moreover they'd probably go with the Iskan City States which would just be too similar to the Free Cities for the final arc.
>>560007218He's grandmaster-tier by this point. Nothing could stop him.
>>560007424The far east look too fucking massive and i think the last arc will be relatively short (sky-crossbell tier) otherwise they'll never end the series by 2032 and Leman and Arteria are perfect for that.I actually think the opposite, the last game will take us all over the continent in some places we already know, but some we don't like some specific spot in the far east, including zemuria's japan. I think the last game will be 2/3 revisiting liberl, crossbell, erebonia, calvard and leman and 1/3 new places (actually more like 4/5 1/5, haha.)
>>560004437smile that it happened
>>560005019>>560005083>>560006657Kisekiddies hate everything Falcom related that isn't Kiseki and will lash out at Falcom for not going on with 80000 Kiseki games like true shonenshit
>>560008962True, look at the autist last thread whining about hypocrisy or some shit over Dragon Slayer
>>560008962It's just really frustrating when you can't get in a word edgewise about anything. Maybe some Ys discussion here and there but it's just damn near constant
>>560006851>narratives need to actually progess to somethingNo, narratives need to progress but an ending point is not necessary. After the Erebonia arc we craved to the new horizons we would travel towards. We could extend that endlessly. What I always found more interesting about Kiseki is the world building that feels like an ever progressing organism or clockwork that keeps on turning with infinite gears. The journey is what I am interested in, not the destination. So for me reaching the destination is undesired.
As a Kiseki fan I will simply move on once Kiseki is overYou, on the other hand, are presumably over 40+ years old and still begging for a new Brandish game after over 20 years of the IP being doneSomehow you want to convince yourself you are enlightened for enjoying a pixel game 30 years ago when you were 10, but you are just pathetic and still reminiscing about a past long gone
For anyone that's finished Proud Nordics, are there chests on Oland Island's east end that are locked to completion of side activities or something? I'm just about to fight the base game's final boss but there's still three chests I can't find for the 100% discovery rate.
>>560007684I know the east isn't Japan, I'm saying it would have something like Japan in it>>560008962I think you're embellishing it but I do think there are people who hate the idea of Falcom making anything that isn't Trails or Ys which is pretty unhealthy.
>>560008962Let's face it anon, literally every other shit by Falcom was mid as fuck. The only thing they set themselves apart is the Kiseki series since there is nothing alike in the genre or video game landscape. If that's gone Falcom will disappear from the radar for most people.
>>560009294Trails world building is complete hot garbage where you spend most games getting cats out of trees and then suddenly someone invents email. THAT'S NOT A FUCKING JOURNEY!
Any Kiseki fan that is capable of moving on from Kiseki would have done so years ago. The fact you're still here means you're hopelessly addicted.
>>560009294>No, narratives need to progress but an ending point is not necessaryIt is an ongoing story with narrative plot points that lead to a conclusion. This isn't like Detective Conan or something>After the Erebonia arc we craved to the new horizons we would travel towards. We could extend that endlesslyYeah, see this is where we fundamentally disagree. Even taking your words at face value, Kondo said we were halfway done at CS4 so even there there was a path to the ending being formed.
Not my fault you can't enjoy a video game series and you see Kiseki as mental torture
You say I can't enjoy a video game series but you just complained that I dare enjoyed another non-Kiseki video game series
Never did that, but I suppose being 40+ years old means you didn't get a proper education and are illiterate Stick to your pixel games with minimal text, gramps
>>560009583>literally every other shit by Falcom was mid as fuck.Have you even played anything from Falcom that isn't Kiseki?>>560009294You'd have a much better point if Kiseki really was about the journey but having a gameplay loop focused around saving cats and finding food isn't progressing anything. They found a formula that worked for Sky because it was the main characters' literal job and grafted it on the whole series but that only hobbled them in the long run because it led to now where we're having 4 games where half the run time is doing sidequests in a city nobody really likes anymoreIf more of Trails was paced like Reverie where it's going from beat to beat, that would be a different story
Oh he's seething
>>559998301you forgot to add Shizuna
If Falcom kills off Kiseki it will be the start of Falcom's demise into bankruptcy.
>>559998409Are any of those characters not dogshit though?
Estelle blushing is cuteShe probably blushed when her game won too!
For every "old" masterpiece like Xanadu Next you have genuine garbage like Zwei and GuruminPeople will LARP about old Falcom here but try their best to hide shit like Vantage Masters and Brandish while propping up Gagharv as some sort of timeless relic that mogs current Falcom lol
>>559998278You can't kill what is already dead, reanspic, calling me vankid when i mocked DB/kai, you run of excuses to defend your mc & arc.
>>560000174gen altina just like this plz
>>560010000>>560009738>>560009738Don’t bother with this one, he is a Reanspic. Ironic one of them would tell anyone to move on because they can’t enjoy something lmao
>>560010002>Have you even played anything from Falcom that isn't Kiseki?Zwei, Brandish, Gurumin, Gagharv (PSP)Of all those only Gagharv was good. The rest was utter garbage. I like some Ys (VIII and IX), but the others were mostly shit. Well Celceta was okay 6/10 shit.
meanwhile.. new kyoto xanadu characters
Samefagging is unseemly
>>560010248>you have genuine garbage like Zwei and GuruminFirst of all, fuck you
>>560010386>emma but brown
>>560010376*I forgot, Tokyo Xanadu was pretty peak. Would love if the continued that properly. Not that Kyouto Xanadu shit.
>>560010376>Of all those only Gagharv was good. The rest was utter garbage.Shit taste>I like some Ys (VIII and IX), but the others were mostly shit. Well Celceta was okay 6/10 shit.This especially shows that your opinion is worthless
This guy really argues that other people don't enjoy things while saying everything that's not Kiseki is shit KEK. Shitting on everything does not make you cool
>>560010386With those peak skirts and zettai ryōiki I hope Falcom doesn't have them wear censorship spats.
>try to talk about non-Trails Falcom>immediately becomes a dick measuring contest >civility out of the window just to tell strangers their different taste makes them inferioryikes no wonder no one wants to engage with the non-Trails fandom
>>560010556Tokyo Xanadu is your fucking idea of 'peak'? Are you legitimately out of your mind? I don't even hate the game, it was fine, but it's like the most 6 or 7 out of 10 experience I've ever played in my life. Like probably the most 'well it functioned' Japanese game. I already thought your taste was shit already but you're just straight up delusional
>>560010798Grow up. You're acting like a child
>>560010784>try to talk about non-Trails FalcomNo one's actually trying to do that though. They're saying anything that's not Trails Falcom is bad.
>>560010923I'm not the one using mid and peak unironically
>>560010798I unironically prefer it over the entire fucking Calvard arc.
Brandish? More like BRAPPISH
>>560010386So I still can't tell how much of the game is 2D segments
>>560010748No spats, this game is pure JP-kino
>>560011428Though I wonder how much panchira there will be with everything being 2.5D shit.
>>560011428How is Falcom so powerful? Even Koei Tecmo is giving Fatal Frame censorship spats but Falcom just can't stop giving panties to everyone.
Come Fie, I'm saving our series and you're helping!
>>560011583They ruined the SC remake with censorship shorts though. Even the fucking anime was more based. KX was likely in development before they started to censor shit and they didn't bother to censor it now.
>>560011160funny how oldfag adoration always boils down to brazen sexual content
>>560011852>meanwhile one post above
>>560010386>jeet emmalmao
>>560011852Just shows that you youngsters have been castrated, both physically and mentally.
>>560010386>jeetEmma
>>560011937Skyboomers are oldfags, they're not part of the Trails fanbase at this point. Only Rean's games are Trails.
>>560011852Yes this is obviously only an oldfag thing sure. In the /fg/ general
>>560012065I am a CS fag though. And the best parts were the coom.
>>560011985nah we just have the whole ass Internet for when we need to get freaky so we aren't obsessed with finding material on our video games lmao you sex addict
>>560012836I sincerely mourn for your generation, being so indoctrinated by made up feminist shit like "sex/porn addiction" that you deem anything that makes your dicks hard as inappropriate and evil.
>>560012836>Everything sexy has to be pornYou're literally broken
>>560010386Sex
>>560010386>brown EmmaHot
>>560013218>>560013329this loses a lot of power when I've sat here in this general for the past year watching you have a massive meltdown over not being able to see the panties of a video game characterand then modding the game to run around with a naked party of girls don't pretend you don't have an addiction, gramps
>>560013920>I'm a joyless pearl clutching cunt but you're the one with the problem
>>560013990luckily the world you loved and crave is long gone and never to return, and with your untimely passing it will be forgotten and silenced Falcom will never make you happy again, they are targetting me and people like me
>>560011160yeah gonna need Brandish 2 ASAP, Kondo
>>560013920>don't pretend you don't have an addiction, grampsProbably lay off the hormone blockers, will you? And then you youngsters wonder why your elders have more sex drive than you and call it sex addiction.
>>560012065The average, unironic Reanspic btw
We met his family in Liberl.At least we know that he has a comfy place to return to.
>>560014419hey gramps don't waste your cooldowns on me, go beg males to generate more AI altinas for you haha
why does not thinking a game is literally unplayable just because of some panty shot shit mean that you're some puritan who hates sex it's retards like this who made /v/ unusable, cumbrains are mentally ill and think their mental illness should apply to everybody else
I thought I told you I filtered you.
>>560014762>Sexual desire is a mental illnessHow low the younger generation has fallen. I blame it on the hormone blockers and femoid indoctrination.
>>560014975every timeyou have no argument except "everyone who doesn't think about sex 24/7 is a pearl clutching puritan"
>>560014762>>560015063It's Mondy, if his brain was capable of coherent and logical thinking he would not be a sex addicted paedophile in the first place.It's like trying to argue trigonometry with a kid. He's just gonna go "nuh-uh you're stinky" when he gets upset.
ignoring Mondblut's daily meltlies, I just dont understand why you would support censorship regardless. havent we learned anything the past 3 years?
>>560011818>KX was likely in development before they started to censor shit and they didn't bother to censor it now.Nah, they just know KX is mainly for the Jap audience whereas the Sky remakes were specifically meant to appeal to Americans and Americanized groups who freak out upon seeing a sexualized fictional female character.
All Falcom games are for their Chinese overlords
>>560015063Anon, sexual desire was the driving force since we lived in caves. Human society is literally built on the desire for coom. Without it we wouldn't have fiction, art or literature. Desire for coom has been one of the most powerful forces shaping human culture for thousands of years. It has influenced art, literature, religion, mythology, music , and even architecture. Sexuality is deeply tied to themes like love, fertility, beauty, power, and reproduction, which are core human concerns.The ancient sculpture Venus of Willendorf (around 25,000 years old) emphasizes fertility and the female body. The classical Greek sculptures such as Aphrodite of Knidos celebrated erotic beauty. Renaissance artists like Sandro Botticelli explored sensual beauty in paintings like The Birth of Venus. Modern artists such as Egon Schiele created provocative works explicitly about erotic desire.In Greek mythology, the goddess Aphrodite represents love and sexual attraction. In Hindu traditions, the god Kama personifies desire. Ancient fertility cults honored deities linked to reproduction and the cycles of life. Sexuality in mythology often symbolizes life, fertility, temptation, and transformation.
>>560014975>sexual desireYou are all asexual. None of you actually has sex. You aren’t sexually active nor should you be considered heterosexual if all you do is masturbate to games, hentai and/or porn.
>>560015814you're not special for liking tits and ass, every guy likes them retardthe point is that not everyone needs tits shoved in their face 24/7 to be able to enjoy anything which is why you're a cumbrain retard and you really don't understand the distinction
>>560015447If you are not going to do anything significant about it, it's much better to just drop the performative act. Have you written a single letter to Falcom to let them know you don't support censorship? Have you dabbled in realpolitik in the real world to have a real impact on the shaping of society? Any impact at all whatsoever beyond anonymously moaning about it on a 4chan general? No? Then you're just an annoying repetitive buzz.People are sick of performative losers on all sides of the issue. Either dedicate your life to politics and enacting real change in the world if you feel that strongly about it, or learn to seethe in silence if you're gonna do nothing about it.
I'm neutral on Cedric but I am a massive Shirleyfag so I hope it actually is him tbqh
new protag will be a new dominion who is part of the new Dominion Outreach Unit where they solve sidequests from notice boards like Bracers
>>560015902Anon, although I assure you that I have a very fulfilling sex life, you should learn what the words you type mean. Asexual refers to a lack of sexual attraction, not necessarily a lack of sexual behavior. The key distinction is between attraction (lust/sexual desire toward others) and actions (sexual activity).
so this is the power of non-Trails conversation
>>560015968As I stated, sexuality is part of not only human life, but the building block of all arts. Thus removing it makes any work feel incomplete, lacking. Deliberately omitting it feels like taking away part of the human existence, part of being alive.
>>560016670least sex addicted millennial
>>560016520This is a Sky discussion however
>>560016670it really is like talking to a brick wall with people like you lmao, you really just are incapable of processing the idea that you can still enjoy something isn't shoving sex into your face and you seriously believe otherwise means that you hate anything sexualno matter how many times i explain it it just will never register with you
Kyoto Shitadu
>I have a very fulfilling sex lifeHahahahahaha, sure you do lil bro
>>560016014its not that deep, its just I could never imagine being miserable enough to feel like I gained something by taking away from some harmless aspect of fanservice another fan of the product I enjoy liked. Just because I cant be fucked to scream into an abyss doesnt mean I'm performative, I'm just stating something I disagree with, think its stupid and dont understand why people would agree with it.
>>560016896>shoving sex into your faceyou guys make it hard to be against Mondy here when you're essentially equating anime panty shots to "shoving sex in your face"
>>560017252you're the retards acting like a game is unplayable because one character has spats like jesus christ dude is that really all you care about in a game
>>560016896Oh, I believe that you feel that way. However what I say is that your viewpoint is the minority in relation to the entirety of human civilization and culture. You call me sex addict, while it is you who are unnormal put next to millenia of human existence. So instead of ridiculing the normal people, why not question why you feel the way you do?
>>560017065Have you tried for empathy? Do you think a woman playing Sky 1st and having to read a line mocking Estelle and belittling her for being a woman will feel good? No, it's mocking her gender, making the women playing the game feel like they are inferior. So, by changing the line to remove that unnecessary diss, you stop people from feeling bad. Why does this upset you?
>>560017332yep its either 0 or 100 with you isn't it? im just talking to a brick wall
>>560017323>you're the retards acting like a game is unplayable because one character has spatsso ignoring how simple minded slop this take is are you gonna tell me where I said that the game is unplayable?
>>560017332I really hope you still eat your meat raw then; humans ate raw meat for millenia so you wouldn't want to go against the majority there, would you? That'd be very hypocritical if you dared to evolve and cook your meat. You are not unnormal, are you?
>>560017341>femoid player sees a fictional kid making fun of girls>feels offended >meanwhile story shows female MC grow and becomes a dependable leader>femoid player still fixates on the kid which mocked the MC at the startWomen in a nutshell.
I'm just gonna mod.jk that's fanfic LOL
What will Falcom do if KX flops
>>560017658And the mask comes off. How can you like Falcom games with no empathy? That's their entire message for every game, lol.
>>560010386Sex with Zoya and Chisa until my balls are the size of lemon seeds
>>560017658>femoid player still fixates on the kid which mocked the MC at the startdoesn't happen, only tourists do.
>>560017715Extend the Kiseki finale to 2037
>>560017791Anon, I play the games to be fucking entertained, not for some message shit. I don't consume my media to be lectured.
>>560017715start releasing 3 games per year instead to make up the difference haha...
>Instead of releasing one rushed game per year now we're gonna release two super rushed games per year.Surely this will not backfire at all.
>>560017948Well then, a couple lines being altered shouldn't affect your entertainment so your problem is solved!
>>560017715Never release another Xanadu again
>>560018126To be fair to them, they have the money to hire new employees. Maybe the can poach some people from Platinum Games or some other failing studio. They could buy out Nagoshi Studio, haha…>>560016930Kondo will do naked dogeza while a Schera cosplayer flagellates him
Has Kondo ever considered just hiring more people? The games won't be rushed if he has more manpower.
To steer the discussion to the relevant topics: damn Sky Tita is so damn fuckable.
>>560010798If someone tells me that one of their favorite games is Tokyo Xanadu then I don't even bother taking them seriously anymore. It's one of the shittiest action games out there and if they like it then I know there's no need to consider their opinion on anything. I bet next they'll tell me that they really enjoy the shitty not-Persona slop that Furyu shits out constantly.

>>560021176As am I, friend. As am I.
>>560020606Another pic of her perky butt?
Honestly I can't begin to fathom that there are so many of you taking Kondo at his word. Have you learned nothing? Do not believe his lies.
(CSIV)I'm still in Act 1 and already close to reaching the item limit for U-Material.What is going on...
>>560021416You got duped, only Reanspics and Vankidfag (a Reanspic) seethe at others being successful. I love Sky and like Calvard.Too bad you’re this much of a stupid faggot you need this spelled out for you.

>schizo acting like he isn't the one spamming the general with vankid/reanspic despite everyone knowing it's him
Not playing Xanadu or any remakes. I'll just be seething at Kai for 2 years straight, aren't I? Hopefully we get a Ys game in 2027
>>560021657She was the backup plan in case Calvard failed.

Vankid... are you being honest with yourself?
>>560022210>vankid has to pretend to be a skyfag now to retain any credibilitylmaoSky = kinoCrossbell = kinoCold Steel = kinoDaybreak = kuso
I need GOOD rean memes
>vankidfag pretending he is ANYTHING but a cocksucking reanspicWhat’s the most productive thing you’ve done today? Not shit outside toilet?
I don't think I've ever seen Vankid not being insanely upset and filling his posts with personal unhinged attacks. Why is he so overly emotional all the time?
It's because of MYY FUCKING ASSHOLE SKYBAB which YOU HELPED OPEN
>>560017948Stop playing after Reverie, then.. because dear God, the Calvard arc is the preachiest set of JRPGs I've ever had the displeasure of reading
>>560024437kek true

I think every arc is kino. Why can't we all get along and agree that kiseki is epic? :(
>>560024937I took over OP duty for a few months when no one wanted to do themI contributed to the Kuro and Kai patchesI expertly goaded femanons into posting nudesI made sure Luke and the vtubbers left the fandom I had sex with Hatsuu and I could keep going What have YOU done other than project your failures on others?
/fg/ gets kind of boring when you realize there are no dedicated Sky, Crossbell, Cold Steel or Calvard fans hereit's only people that like Trails as a whole and 1 guy that hates Cold Steelhe pretends to be a fan of a specific arc just to get an arcwar going but he doesn't care about any of them, he just wants to hate on Cold Steel
>>560025473You didn't goad shit, the whore did that on her own.
Cope. You lost, bigly.
>Q: Is it true that just like the 1st, there haven’t been any new additions to the story?>Kondo: Truth be told, I did consider the possibility of rewriting the 1st in a more contemporary style. However, the staff was explicitly adamant about preserving the original work, so much so that we ultimately decided to leave the story as-is aside from any necessary revisions.>Kondo actually considering rewriting Sky 1st in the nu-Falcom style and had to be talked out of it
>>560025050He has the best genes in Erebonia and it's not even close.
>>560026224That would be Aurelia.
>>560025473>I expertly goaded femanons into posting nudesNo, that was a fat man with a tube bra.>I made sure Luke and the vtubbers left the fandomstal left because of death threats and Luke just switched channels for Trails stuff.>I had sex with HatsuuNo, that was her dog. You've heard the old saying about white girls and dogs...
>>560026379It speaks volumes that you falsely try to deny my achievements rather than list yours
>>560025473So you did nothing? Got it.>>560026015Close but no cigar. It’s more we have 5 reanspics in this 15-20 person general that cannot get over the fact people dislike the arc. These have been the same people complaining that people use the falcom thread to talk about non-Kiseki falcom games. I am eager to see what the series being done does to this thread. Endless arcwars? Will people just fuck off? Will Ys and Dragon Slayer take over? Exciting stuff.
They are disrespecting Rean again haha
>>560026606nah the general will just die once we KisekiGODs move on from Falcom and you will be reduced to hoping for the occasional fleeting thread on /v/or worse yet, condemned to a lifetime of irrelevance on /vr/ with your pixel shit
>>560026606the only reason i even use this thread is for kiseki and once kiseki is finished im done with falcommodern ys sucks ass compared to the older games and i could not give a single shit about tokyo xanadus sequelmodern kiseki sucks too but ive invested too much into these games to quiti think falcom have been a largely mediocre developer since the 2010s and have only got more mediocre over time and their games just feel so paint by numbers now
>>560026594I am deeply offended. You're just jealous of the people you mentioned. Stal's loyal fanbase, Luke's pretty eyes, and Hatsuu's massive personality tits. I bet ribose has a stronger jaw than you, meanie.
>>560027034lol I owned this guy so hard he started toddlerposting
We joke about the thread dying, but I recently watched the yoko taro general literally die on /vg/. it's not beyond the realm of possibility. It's just a question of when. There's probably 10-20 of us left, and this is my first post in about half a year. In 5 years Falcom will be all but extinct and this place will probably have died. I already got a head start with the ff general.They like me there, unlike YOU turds
>>560027241This, they RESPECT my ERP in other generals.Farewell virgins.
If the thread dies who will I call a Vankid? Who will I communicate with at all? It can't die. I won't let it.
>>560027232I got here like 10 minutes ago. Whoever you think I am is probably wrong. I don't even know why you were sperging and just decided to make fun of you for obsessing over ecelebs. I'm not Vankid or Reankid or skybab or whatever tf else your tardlington brain manifested from the innermost sanctum of your pornsick limbic system.

Finished the Witcher 3 last night. What a game. I finally get how and why some people were so insanely hyped for CP2077. I probably would have been too had I finished that game before it released. Also get why people say Blood and Wine is the best expansion ever but…deep in my heart, I still do truly think Bloodborne got robbed of GOTY and I do still think The Old Hunters is the best DLC ever. That being said, I am happy to be back on the Path of Trails, haha…Also, I think I found out who the final MC is…

I have now finished Proud Nordics including post game content.Is it it worth paying full price for? No. Oland Island is okay but was generally underwhelming. You don't even fight Canute, and his shield sister does nothing the whole time. It was good not to have the Carnac kids around but that's about it until the final main segment of it which was more cool.What I really don't like about it from a story perspective is setting up Loto as Adol's grand nemesis. You got glimpses of this in the base game, but the postgame snippet made it clear that Loto just gets involved with any random thing and that in any future Ys game he could be the random confidant of the main villain that guides them into doing whatever tickles his fancy. Ys doesn't need an overarching villain that Adol can never actually truly defeat because he's implied to be behind Adol's North Pole adventure.Combat still feels like a downgrade over even the party games and I hope it gets reworked also because every Ys game for the next while being Adol becoming a strong pair with some girl will get boring. I did like that I ended the base game at like level 95, saving the exp gain items you naturally get it means that you can get level 99 naturally. Making full use of the level scale is nice and you don't really see that in games.
>>560036869>obvious dei shit, kyoto is nothing like thatI didn't mind the brown loli, she's cute, but if they put in DEI propaganda or try to fulfill a diversity quota I'm out. I still hope this is some parallel universe shit and they give a lore explanation. The last thing I want is being lectured on diversity in a fucking Falcom game.
>>560038492I (Rufus) put the good shit in the water during my reign
>>560040773Kasim is honourable and let Kincaid get a free hit because of his disability (glasses). But then that glow nigga shining brighter than the white dawn teleported away (Forfeiting the battle and confirming Kasim’s superiority)

>>560041304Van should have been able to talk to his Grendel/demonic core. It would be kino if there’s a constant devil on your shoulder, goading the player into making bad choices.
>>560040837>What I really don't like about it from a story perspective is setting up Loto as Adol's grand nemesis. I think they have no intention to follow up on it. The flash forward only exist to explain why Adol went missing in the north pole, just fanservice for oldfags basically.
>>560041905that's a lot cooler than some fairy that jumps out of his phone
>>560042210sex with mare tho
Adol’s final adventure is discovering the existence of Hyperborea. It’s revealed that all of Adol’s journeys were just him looking for a perfect land, but he always gets side tracked. He never is seen again because he never wanted to leave.Kino
>>560041905I mean, I'm fine with mare. I just wish the transformation wasn't such a black box.
So now that we know Kai 2 has been written, how do we feel about how Falcom will handle the pacing? To me, their cardinal sins are always starting off sequel games slowly and putting players in the shoes of bracers/pretend-bracers way too early on. People wanna see what happened after where they left off, not go kill some fuckoff monster in a highway. Japanese companies really struggle with pacing, so my theory, and sadly the very realistic one, is that Falcom structures Kai 2 as normal JRPG that has maybe two, at worst three, filler chapters that are just doing sidequests until the story advances - my most recent example of going through this was with FFVII remake. Not ideal but a clear improvement over having to do 4SPGs during the day and at night before the story can move forward.In a perfect world I think they’d learn to more naturally spread them out, make less of them, and with longer expiration times: you could a chapter or two to finish a 4SPG tackled at your leisure and not when the game commands you to. They’d learn that they can’t and shouldn’t follow up a big story reveal or fight with>phew alright guys let’s wind down by hitting the streets and knocking off some 4PSGsand follow the old cliche of putting a bulk of them before the final dungeon. If there is something I wish more games took note of regarding the controversial FFXVI, is that its final sidequests has some really good writing and were easily the best of the entire game.Also, if you MUST include a Garten, make it strictly boss fights/unique monster fights like in Kuro 1.
This is your new protagonist for the final arc. Say something nice about her, /fg/!
>>560042176It's the final runestone after collecting all of the mural pieces that makes it feel like they're really setting Loto up as a rogue element. I don't think they would dedicate the new final runestone in the post game to talking about how Loto can always be lurking behind any important person pulling their strings in any form and that he'll never leave mankind alone if they didn't have any plans to follow up on it. Ys only tends to stick with things for a couple of games anyway before having a new focus but I feel like as soon as they have a Loto twist once in a Ys game it'll cast a shadow over future games.

Why is Rixia so bad in Azure? Lloyd does her evasion role better by having better utility and Randy is a better S-Craft abuser due to his ability to Rage. I'd say she could still have worked as a third member, but the game highly encourages arte spam so Tio and Wazy end up being better slots.
>>560047910she is sabotaged in every game except reverie(where is is OP as fuck)
>>560047910She's good for trash mob fights
>>560047910The only game where Rixia is god tier is Reverie. In Calvard you barely use her throughout all three games because she spends 90% of the runtime in Heiyue's office. I still don't get what was with her random ass Daybreak 2 ending cameo where she arrives at the last second but isn't playable postgame like Zin and Fie are.
Juna owes me anal
>>560048373Maybe the cutscene people weren't given a memo that she isn't playable
Rixia owes me strong children
>>560045238Kasim’s daughter
>>560046692And yet Rean lost half the day 1 Jp audience.Hmm…
>>560049439People actually bought his games. Even the damm Sky remakes (outside Japan). We wasted too much time in Calvard. Thanks Van.
>>560044490I'm not optimistic if they keep releasing 2 games per year. They started doing it the year Kuro II came out and it's not a coincidence how the games are turning out.Regarding sidequests, lately some good story bits have been relegated to connect events. Why not turn at least some of them into sidequests instead?And I don't think anything can be worse than Grim Garten, so I'm sure the next Garten will be better. I'm don't think killing X enemies in field/shard battle, activate Y thingies or break this number of stuff is fun at all. Make it less objective-based or be more creative with it. Maybe dodging X times in field battle would be better, for example.
>>560050181Grim Garten was better than Marchen Garten.
>>560049974>peopleFujos*And they bought em less and less
>new protag confirmedI wonder if it'll be a girl....
Next arc will take place in the Free Cities and what remains of the Holy Iskan Empire
I don't wanna go east. East = swords which = more Rean. Sorry bro but I need my busty jc mc haha.
Machias is considered very high tier in Reverie mechanically.
>>560050280Honestly I'm not sure about that. Marchen had a better flow to it, and it was nice being able to play it postgame. Meanwhile the Grim one feels worthless since it's before the final boss so it feels like there's no point playing it after you see the credits. I know it would take away from the shock value "door slam" ending, but personally I would have made it so you can do the Grim Garten postgame and unlock Kasim/Kincaid as regular members, and have the various NPC guests (Cao and the Ouroboros members) available too.
>>560050330It honestly should be just because Falcom hasn't went with a female protagonist in eons. But I'm sure they'd be compelled to have this character orbit a Joshua clone with an edgy past.
We need to go back to Rean being the protagThese foreigner sissies aint cutting itThis boat needs a strong erebonian man at the helm
>>560050763>But I'm sure they'd be compelled to have this character orbit a Joshua clone with an edgy past.Haha....I can see that happening....Falcum are chuds...>>560050815Kek

They should make Aurelia the protagonist
>>560051076It's over
>>560051080She’s too busy siring me children
No women protagonist. The series is woke enough. We need a straight, white, blonde blue-eyed protagonist to correct things.
>>560051080Wrong. We need a spin off with her as a JK fucking the student body.
>>560051241She's just going to solo ouroboros while 7 months pregnant no biggie
>>560050751You don't have to play every section of the Grim Garten three times to 100% it so it's automatically better. Combine that with the Grim Garten working better as a place you can use all characters at once in addition to a much stronger music selection in base game than the Marchen Garten and there's no competition. Plus of course there's actual plot stuff in it along with being able to see memento orbs.
>>560050815Sad but true. I mean let's look at Rean>Uses a sword, the singular and definitive weapon of protagonists. >Can ride a horse, the very symbol of a hero. >Endlessly humble despite his immense power, a true gentleman. >Wears fake glasses to disguise his identity from the common man, literally Clark Kent.After five games of this man, why the FUCK would I want to play anyone else? He is Mr Trails.
>>560051863Truly a man of Steel
>>560048175>>560048272>>560048373It's just weird to me because the story makes her out to be super amazing and powerful...but she's just underwhelming. I expected...more.
>>560052718She's pretty good in Ao. She hits harder as an evasion tank than Lloyd.
>>560047910>Lloyd does her evasion role better by having better utilityLloyd doesn't need utility as an evasion tank. You shouldn't be using him as a utility character if he's an evasion tank. He should be physically separated so far from the rest of the party that he can't function as a utility character. Your utility character should be near your arts caster(s).Rixia does more damage as an evasion tank. This makes her better in many situations. Yes, negligibly better, but still better.
>>559996897I put 100 hours into Horizons and literally (and I mean actually LITERALLY) fucking nothing happened until the very ending. Falcom are fucking hacks.
>>560051275You're getting a brown jeet woman with danger hair and pronouns now
>I mean let's look at Rean, ese.>Uses a sword, the singular and definitive weapon of protagonists and the Mark of a Fighter™.>Can ride a horse, the very symbol of a hero who has been Brewed For Those With a Fighting Spirit™. >Endlessly humble despite his immense power, a true hidalgo. >Wears fake glasses to disguise his identity from the common man, literally Clark Kent, ese.>After five games of this man, why the FUCK would I want to play anyone else? He is Señor Trails.
I have Reanspic fatigue. Whether true or ironic, it is too much.
>>560053784>Lloyd doesn't need utilityLloyd gets 100% evasion naturally, which pushes him already above Rixia who doesn't. Lloyd has Seal and Faint attached to him, which are both more applicable than Rixia's options because they do come up more often. His self buff negates ALL status so it helps with his evasion tank role. Rixia's benefits over Lloyd is she has marginally better damage and range, which amounts to basically nothing if you're running them in an evasion tank role.
>>560020731You're gay if you wouldn't fuck this.
>>560056376I also forgot to mention, Lloyd also has an Impede craft, while Rixia doesn't. Magic can bypass evasion so having your evasion tank with that UTILITY is good to have. He'll always be in range to put a stop to it because enemies should generally be suctioned in around him. Get off on Lloyd's utility not being useful because of his evasion role, it's why he shines as one. He can function well with both and ignoring it is the only reason why someone would think Rixia has anything over him. Barrier man is unmatched.
>>560056376>Lloyd gets 100% evasion naturally, which pushes him already above Rixia who doesn'tIrrelevant. 100% evasion is 100% evasion.>Lloyd has Seal and Faint attached to himValid point. Deathblow isn't very useful against bosses, obviously.>His self buff negates ALL status so it helps with his evasion tank role.Irrelevant since nigga's not getting hit.>Rixia's benefits over Lloyd is she has marginally better damage and rangeActually the range of True Dragon Claws is a pretty big advantage for Rixia.

>>560057495>Irrelevant. 100% evasion is 100% evasion.Wasting actions to get Rixia on par with what Lloyd can naturally achieve is very problematic and ruins a team's turn economy. Lloyd allows me to maximize my action economy, whereas Rixia holds me back from having to baby her.>Irrelevant since nigga's not getting hit.Let's just ignore all the attacks that bypass evasion checks or attacks that'll still land status even if they miss. His self buff also accounts for that better btw.>Actually the range of True Dragon Claws is a pretty big advantage for Rixia.Raging Spin will always catch everything you need. There's not a single fight where the difference matters.

CS3 onwards, even the standout are just traits jumbled together. Juna is Estelle with a tonfa, Rufus post CS is just a shitty version of Richard, Van/Rat/Van is Guy/Dudley. Elaine is Elie with a sword. Agnes is Tio with Boobs & Kea Powers.
*walks into /fg/*So this is /fg/…
>>560058572It’s been a rough couple of months. Last time most of the thread seemed truly happy was when Sky 1st dropped its demo.
>>560001023>MC that can't fight on her own and would need to be completely reliant on other people to do everythingWouldn't have worked. Elaine could have functioned as an MC if they wanted another bracer and would have looked good as a cover girl too.
>>560057745Rixia and Gaolang's child from a pruned timeline that's an antagonist in Kai 2, calling it. She'll also be the one to kill Gaolang to prevent her birth, but it turns out she's actually Lloyd's affair child with Rixia from said timeline and she closes a timeloop to ensure she's born again.
I'm surprised they still haven't revealed who is publishing KX in the west if it's actually getting a simultaneous release this summer. You'd think they'd want to get people pre-ordering the usual collector's editions and whatnot.

>>560051863I love Rean. I'm not gay but I would suck his dick if he commanded me to.
Has anyone ported the Kai no Kiseki fan translation patch to Beyond the Horizon release? I'm still holding on the .p3a patch for Kuro no Kiseki II, it'd be great to use P3H great port with a proper translation.
>>560056376Lloyd is so strong. With crafts and stats like his its no wonder he was able to make Mcburn kneel.
>>560068953Would be nice if someone could do a combined patch. Main story, Connect Events and side quest shit from the patch, NPCs from NISA's release. NPCs in the patch utterly shit MTL close to Google translate.
>>560069605Yeah, I remember. It was rough from time to time but it's better than that shit NISA provided. I honestly don't know how to do it otherwise I would do it myself and then share.I don't know if this is common knowledge or not, but the most recent update from Trails through Daybreak made it impossible to launch the game if it recognizes the fanpatch in the mod folder. It literally pops up an error message in which they tell you to remove the fan patch. You need to rename it in order to bypass it. You don't hate NISA enough.

I want to buy a switch lite to play Ys 9 again, but I just sold my switch months ago because I wanted to do other things with my time but I’m getting the Ys itch and I really really want to play it, but then I would have failed movin on from video games. I should never have come here to post either.
I always assumed Spriggans were an establised ghing and Van was one of the many and then Rosso in Horizon revealed he was the only one.why did van make up his edgelord job
>>560038661I actually like this because of the similarities between Van and the MC of pic rel’s game. That ending always left me wanting more.Trails Beyond Xillia
>>560076542This Tales game has some of the worst writing I have ever seen.
>>560077702I know anons complain about the padding present in Kiseki, but even 4spg padding wasn't as shit as the 20mil debt mechanic in xillia 2 gating your progress till you make your minimum payments
>>560077702Xillia 2? Its ok I liked the mechanics of the parallel timelines there, and its really a game that was a product of its era where protags suffering nonstop was en vogue from Madoka to Blazblue
>Trails will end in 2032.No, you will continue the series forever. You are only allowed to end the series when I'm on the final year of my life.
>>560078318The whole story falls apart the moment you think about it. Just consider the whole trial alone and you'll realize it.>Let's create this trial to punish humans for killing spirits with Spyrix.>BTW it has nothing related to Spyrix or humanity bettering itself.>Also we are causing much worse genocide of spirits because all souls are removed from the cycle when a fractured dimension disappears...Whole game is nonsense built on more nonsense with the writer admitting to character rewrites and flanderization of the previous cast.
>Trusting kondo
>>560078976>the sept-terrion of BShaha... foreshadowed 10 games ago
Only retards believe a word Kondo says.
You tout not believing Kondo but at the end you're just dancing on his palm anyway. He owns everyone in this general.
>>560080275I'm sure Aperion has some fancy pronunciation, but I can't mentally unread it as literally "ape iron".

I want to try out a Trails game. Which one has the most fanservice?
The hottest trails and tales character is Judith (my wives)
>>560089165Probably Daybreak 2 or Reverie. Both would be really confusing starting places
I wonder if 3rd will get a remake too
>>560089532well it wouldnt make sense to have 3rd be the only game no available on modern consoles especially now that kevin is an mc again but falcom are retarded so who knows
>Rean looks at Falcom's future without Trails
>>560089852Please don't leave us Rean...
>>5600897283rd should be forgotten. It's a game full of empty promises and sequel bait that never panned out.
>>560092491Wish you'd forget about Falcom. The fandom would improve a lot without a whiny bitch like you around.
>>560092491The Happiness Stone wil lshow up in the finale of the series and you'll be seething

The 2032 end date is just an aspiration. Kondo probably wants to retire not long after that
no xanadu website update?
I was 28 when I discovered Kiseki and I'll be 38 when it ends... Life-changing experience... Thank you Falcom!!
>>559988107Ackshually, next arc is the best time to reintroduce these 2, MC or not. I do feel theyre gonna kill Shirley as part of Cedric's character arc though.
>>560099180Yeah man [Character] is going to die for sure!
I don't think the final protagonist will be anyone we already know since they are still ironing out their profession Cedric is not going to suddenly go from Prince to Ouroboros Enforcer to local fixer Unless Kai 2 ends up with the destruction of Ouroboros
>>560103731do you play at 20 fps?
Anelace x Cedric final protag duo
>>560104021huh?
>>560104132does your Kai run at 20 frames per second?
>>560104238Obviously fucking not, why are you asking?
>>560104376How would it be obvious? I'm not in your room to know lol
>>560093009*SNIIIIIFFFFFFF*
>>560099180This isn't Cold Steel, characters don't die anymore.
>>560099180Cuckdric has no character arc. He will either end up dead so Olivier or Alfin can take the throne. I can already see the next time we see Shirley, though>btw, me and Mariabell have grown close!>she even told me I have a natural aptitude for alchemy!And so Shirley will use alchemy for something once Mariabell inevitably dies sacrificing herself for Crossbell or Elie or something.
>>560108562>once Mariabell inevitably dies sacrificing herself for Crossbell or Elie or something.lolMariabell is confirmed more evil than Weissmann.
>>560108562>comes up with pessimistic scenarios to demoralize himselfvery pathetic

>>560108767Yes but Weissman had NO FRIENDS meanwhile Mariabell does.>>560108769You can quit projecting at any moment.
>>560108906You're the Gilbert of the fandom, everyone laughs at you lol
>>560108906NISA really owned chuds like you with this line, huh?
>>560108906what i hate from this "discourse" is how my dislike to ulrika and nadia is associated with the localization. i played all calvard games in japanese and i still hate them.
>>560110430It's because the localizers are very clearly using Nadia as their mouthpiece. Anyone who thinks it's ok to do this has no moral standards.
>>560112058Have you tried not being such a bitchmade chud?
Kondo is using Trails (and now Xanadu) as his mouthpiece for wokeness
>>560112520Case in point.>Anyone who thinks it's ok to do this has no moral standards.
>>560112772That's because Blackrock is using Falcom as a mouthpiece
>>560108562That's Lord Chadric to you, or "The Slayer of Pussy" if you prefer
>>560112772He's sacrificing this man's blood and sweat, his legacy to the altar of femoids, trannies and woke subhumans in the west. Kondom has no shame.
how frail is your ideology that one character speaking funny in a niche JRPG video game is enough to make you feel threatened? Trails fans are wild man
>>560117082they all use the same kind of slang words in their posts too. it's performative outrage
Kato is the main person who kept that retard Kondo in line which is why when he was on top Falcom was releasing top-quality games. Sadly when Kato started getting up there in age and Kondo had more reigns we started getting more and more shit games and with Kondo fully in charge we are seeing retard after retard decisions.

If you're bored and want to talk with us why don't you try talking about your hobbies and the things you like about Falcom? You don't have to limit your engagement to just ragebaiting and angryposting, you know.
Not only should all translations be as literal as possible while still being understandable and sensical, they should also have honorifics.
Thank you for your opinion, American.
Are the Americans are in this room with us?
>>560117641Kondom directed fc. He was more hands on with the games during sky and crossbell era. Kondo single handedly saved falcom with fc.
I'm Brazilian actually, thank you
>>560119318And once Kato died Kondo was free and gave us Sora 1st which is 1000% better than FC
>>560118957The well-adjusted majority always needs an unhinged minority like you to reinforce itself Thank you for being the designated retard with the wrong opinion and shit taste, you are helping out society with your sacrifice and social estrangement

Pantsu shots are the meeting point between a culture that's been drawing scrolls of geishas getting gang banged by tentacles for centuries and the more prudent US. To deny pantsu shots are to deny everything we've done to maintain good relations with Japan after we nuked the shit out of them and then put them back on their feet. This is literally international politics.
Field battles are too simple to be enjoyable. It feels like a chore most of the time.

Van has to be the worst protagonist we have ever had. Give me back legitimately any other protagonist.
>>560122574It appeals to me, I like running the Gartens with Swin in action combat
>>560122574I feel this way to every turn based games with actionized gimmick. I know turn based jrpg has a bad future when people liked metaphor's field combat.
>>560117316Truth bomb. Kato protected the Falcom we know. And when Kondom saw his chance he backstabbed him. Now he's running his legacy and lifeblood into the ground.
>>560121461
>>560120315You have a problem with it femoid?
Genuine question, would Estelles game have sold better if she had massive tits?
>>560122574I like it. Side steps First's bad combat.

>>560128331Kevin?
>>560127860Dumb whores. Women can't carry an arc. As soon as Estelle's remake came out Falcom announced the end of Kiseki because her estrogen couldn't carry the franchise.
>>560128416we don't count Kevin and Rufus since they don't have their own arc
>>560128596At least I can sort of understand not counting Rufus since that game was a thinly disguised Cold Steel game. But Kevin flat out had his own game all to himself. A really good game where we even got the pleasure of playable Richard.
>>560128770Debatable since most of the game is doors about non-Kevin characters
>>560127860>Falcom would sooner call their fanbase slurs than give them another female mc for TrailsBased Falcom
>>560120315Valid reasoning.

>>560133838Straight men don't want to play as a femoid.
>>560133932Believe it or not, some of us do not need to self-insert to enjoy a game. Some of us just enjoy viewing a nice, cute, canon romance story as an outsider.
>>560133932Straight men don't exist anymore. Everyone faps to femboys.
>>560134065>Everyone faps to femboys.I do not.
>>560134051You can have a canon romance story with a male MC. Falcom doesn't make good female protagonists. Yunica is Estelle without the XSEED fanfiction making her act like a tumblr OC and she sucked as a character.
>>560134178No shit, you're not even male.
>>560134293BESTelle is Falcom's greatest MC.

>moids in /fg/Gross
Estelle, Kevin, Lloyd, and Rean are all great protagonists. Rufus is a Lelouch ripoff and Van is dogshit.
>>560134293>You can have a canon romance story with a male MC.Sure, but can Falcom do a male MC without cringey harem elements? Hell no they can't.Again, not female, loathe feminism. The harem shit is cringey as fuck.
Uura!
>>560134686Van doesn't really have a harem. Better a man as a MC than a useless woman who has to be coddled and carried by all.
i am genuinely depressed at the state of this place. like it makes me legit sad. when i first joined there was a variety of conversation, gimmick posters and funny people. now it's just a few schizos shouting at themselves and each other, and mondblut posting altina or whatever. 2023 was the event horizon for /fg/ and i'm not kidding. the eceleb shit and the og posters fucking off was the death knell for the thread. ip count being hidden is a blessing at this point
Why did Schizua abandon us...
>>560134980>Van doesn't really have a harem.Bullshit. You know that's wrong. Don't gaslight us.>and mondblut posting altinaOh THAT'S why there were over 50 Altina spamposts in that one recent thread.Makes sense now.
>>560135423Saying Van has a harem is like saying Joshua had a harem. Both statements are wrong.
>>560135162(((they))) force fed him his meds
>>560135542Three or more characters openly lusting after a dude = he has a harem.Joshua had a harem.Van has a harem.
I mean you all run around with a full party of naked women so you clearly do like playing as females lol quit acting tough I've never seen a single screenshot here that has a full party of males
Imagine the immense smell of fish that male harem protags have to endure every day...
>>560135671Wrong. What makes a harem a harem is if there's any chance more than one or two characters will get with the MC. In no reality could Joshua get with anyone but Estelle. In no reality could Van get with anyone but Agnes or Elaine.
>>560136242unfortunately in kuro 2 they don't really give you much of a choice, the male characters in that game are shit
>>560134881Based Feri only wasting 0.5 secs of our life saying Ura over the other jackasses doing a monologue each before a boss fight
>>560136720Wrong. Joshua and Van can get with any woman who openly lusts after them. They are human beings with free will.
>>560136720don't bother, he's illiterate and constantly misuses terms
>xertranny gaslit ximself into believing every single altina post was by they/thems boogeymanLMFAO
>>560136720By your own definition Van has a harem because you just listed two girls with a chance to get with him.>a harem a harem is if there's any chance more than one or two characters>More than one
>>560138515Do you know what "or" means? Are you ESL?
Shit thread
>>560138759Are you? Or means either one or the other and you listed one as one potential means. If you want to mean only more than two, then don't include one within your range.
purchasing a Trails game should come with a free autism check-upI'd wager a large % of the fanbase is entitled to a disability cheque
>>560028112can't believe i finally managed to make you shut the fuck up for a day. i guess that you saying the dude's name every few weeks for half a year and no one taking the bait really got on your nerves huh. now be a good anon and your youtube boogieman won't appear in your nightmares :3
>>560139179Don't no u me. More than one or two means a number that is three or above. You have exposed to the general that you are brown.
>>560139598>More than one or two means a number that is three or above.No, it means either being a larger number than 1 or a larger number than two. A larger number than 1 is 2 or more. Thus by your definition Van has a harem. Not my problem you don't understand how to speak basic English.
>24h later he's still angryyikes
You know what, fuck you. I'm not making the next thread now.
>>560139791You tried to be smart but you only exposed that you were an ESL. Next time don't be so obvious that you're brown
>>560139972you act like we haven't been asking you to stop making them for months now
Van objectively has a harem at least as of Daybreak 2 with Shizuna and Renne and arguably Judith
>>560140057>exposed that you were an ESL.Says the guy with the inability to understand something as simple as "Or." Double downing on your mistake doesn't help you at all either.
>>560140087Van doesn't see those characters like that at all. Your best bet for Van getting a harem is if Shizuna becomes a serious contender in Kai 2.
>>560139923>and he replies within minutes.holy shit you're literally refreshing the page all fuckin day ahahaha! i knew you were just hiding because i proved your reasoning was total was ass, but i didn't think you'd bite this quickly! fuckin tragic...
>>560140178Continue writing your cope. All native English speakers recognise one or two as being accurate. All ESLs seethe because it confuses their pea brains.
