>>3665851How do you 'code' a pussy to be jewish? Is it sideways?
Pointless character, like so many other cold shitters. She was supplanted in the story by her fucking cat in CS3.
>>3665914>Shy>Virgin>Huge tiddiesEmma was the best girl
>>3665914they have a really bad habit in this series of creating characters and then making their purpose obsolete by another character so they just end up standing around doing nothing
Crossbellicans are the jews of the setting.
>>3665937That's what happens when you make up the story as you go along. The characters are not created with a plan to use them later on.
>Entire point is to create a class that transcends social class and mixes commoner and noble. >Nobody does this because they can only exist to talk to the MC. >Nobody evolves or does anything after 4 1/2 games what a fucking waste of time
>>3666021that scene where they have a class reunion in cs3 and the men and women just stand on opposite sides of the room saying nothing until rean shows up is one of the funniest things ive ever seen and just the pure embodiment of the trash that cold steel is
>>3666025Seriously it's just astounding how bad it was. It's especially bad for all the female characters who can't even say as much as a hello to another dude. I'm not proposing ships or anything like that, keep your stupid dating sim shit, but fuck me sideways.
>>3665896> "-stein" surname suffix > Academic> Huge pair of glasses> Practically Khazar milkers> Mysterious spoilered shitHow is Emma NOT Jewish-coded? She's Isara-tier
>>3666025Women should not fraternize with any man who is not her husband.
I wanna fuck Laura on the side!

>>3665851Names ending in -stein are just normal names in Germany. Nothing "Jewish" about it despite the frequency of Jews with such names. Nina Einstein in Code Geass is far more "Jewish coded".
>>3668511mira deez nuts?
>there are 30% of people who did not even finish a prologuewtf
Sad incel thread.
>>3666027Sexy Fie
Again, wtf did Kondo mean by them moving away from the naturalistic/pastoral aspect when Zero has plenty of focus on it? There is plenty of nature scenery in Armorica or Mainz or St. Ursula. That statement is still so confusing, I specifically decided to replay Zero because of it. But I have no idea what he meant by this.
>>3669275Crossbell is a modern urban sprawl compared to Liberl. The outskirt locations in Crossbell are deliberately pastoral and quaint to juxtapose that as well.Crossbell city is neuveau riche
I hated CS IV and Hajimari, and haven't really paid attention to the series since.Whats the deal with both Kuro no Kiseki, and the official localized version, both being on steam?
>>3669597That comparison makes those statements all the more weird.
>>3669711I didn't like Cold Steel but Daybreak is even worse, both mechanically and story-wise. I played every game in the series but I'm seriously considering dropping it completely because of how bad Daybreak was.
>>3670110All Im really hoping for is that its fun in the same way CS1 was fun
>>3669711kuro 1 is a good but kind of underbaked game, you can tell they didnt really know how to use their engine yet and the game has cut corners everywherekuro 2 is one of the worst jrpgs ive ever played and i played cold steel 3 and 4kai is okay but aside from the ending its pretty unmemorable
>>3670190>kuro 2 is one of the worst jrpgs ive ever played and i played cold steel 3 and 4That's pretty interesting. CS3 was so awful that it caused me to drop the series, even with the sky games being some of my favorite jrpgs. What's so bad about Kuro 2?
>>3670171>>3670198The Cold Steel games are bad but they're just goofy anime games that don't take themselves too seriously. Not only does Daybreak have worse gameplay than Cold Steel 1-4, but it tries to tell a much more mature story than Cold Steel, which makes the bad writing much more noticeable.
>>3670341Cold Steel takes itself incredibly seriously are you retarded? The writing around the multiple wars, acts of terrorism etc is laughably dogshit but it tries to take those things seriously.
>>3670367Almost no one dies in Cold Steel. The wars only result in one city being razed, and the terrorists are all sympathetic figures. In contrast the terrorists in Daybreak are genuinely reprehensible and nuke a city for the lulz.
>>3669711>Whats the deal with both Kuro no KisekiIt is okay. 6/10, borderline 7/10l.Worse than Cold Steel but not as bad as Crossbell. The antagonistic, two-faced superpower shown in the prior games has been washed away and replaced by a totes good US expy. The actual locations are boring modern urban cities. Modern day tech like laptops abound. It does not feel like the charming fantasy setting of Sky or CS. Calvard has very little flesh to it compared to Erebonia or even Liberl. We don't know of any Calvardian generals or strong local leaders like Zechs, Craig, Aurelia, Victor, etc. The main playable cast is overall just as forgettable as Crossbell's. Like Crossbell, the unplayable NPC side characters like Alvis, Dasawni, Marielle, Dingo, etc, are much more interesting to follow. I wish the game had been about the trio of Van, Dingo, and Marielle. Zin and Walter are disappointingly utilized. It has been almost a decade since Sky, and Zin is still alone despite being a respected and successful adventurer, and his buddy Olivier got married two years prior. Walter is still in Ouroboros and shows no signs of repentance, again feeling like your time chasing and fighting these Ouro people over the prior 13 games means nothing when you never truly reduce the net total of Ouro members and make progress towards the defeat of the bad guys. The plot of Kuro 1 is complete filler just like Zero, does not advance the Ouro plot or the geopolitical plot. 1/2
>>36703782/2Soundtrack has several good songs, overall not as high of a hit rate as Cold Steel but not forgettable at all like Crossbell. Combat is sadly braindead after the first two chapters even on abyss difficulty. The game is very woke and it shined through even when I played with the fan TL patch. Do not know how good the English dub is which came out after I played. I like the increased visual fidelity of the game in terms of models and lighting. The game stutters during S-craft animations when playing with a 3070ti at 4k, don't know if this was fixed with the official Western release.
>>36703793/3 also Sheena is beautiful, probably the most attractive modelled woman I have seen in a videogame
>>3670378>not as bad as CrossbellDaybreak wishes it was half as good as Crossbell.https://youtu.be/4lkaTGNE5ds?si=ISe4BFX-1P4tjQmK
>>3670378>>3670379I hate how Daybreak turned Ouroboros into total wimps. Even the authorities don't take them seriously. They are allowed to just walk through cities in broad daylight even though they're supposed to be international terrorists.
>>3670382Congratulations on posting the only other good song in Zero besides the super arrange version of Formidable Enemy.
>>3670387Zero has a great OST. Way better than Cold Steel or Daybreak, at least.https://youtu.be/jaWEEW5i_Rg?si=VMJvun_aQIp591j4https://youtu.be/JcVq_mj3UaE?si=XQqBpMk8q0dBhiowhttps://youtu.be/WAD6bLsvJVU?si=QgnmNCx3Ag_S9pso
>>3670383ouroboros have been a joke since cs2
Does Zemuria even have an idea of what kind of setting it wants to be tech and time wise? I know it was never full medieval fantasy but I feel like we went from some quasi 19th century, to roaring 20s, to GODDAMN EMAIL way to too fast.
>>3670415>>3670383They're too in love with their villains. They can't do anything too heinous that won't be friend shipped away or seen as them just being quirky and they won't let you actually fight and defeat any of them permanently. The entirety of the ouroboros encorces should have been wiped like three games ago. You don't gotta kill em all but you do not to put a stop to them for real.
>>3670418The president of Falcom did an interview like a year ago were he said that the tech jumped like 100 years because of popular trends on the PSP and there was a huge internal staff argument about it but they went ahead with it anyway. I honestly don't think they really give a shit about the setting and it got lazier and lazier over time. Nowadays they just slap some generic real life design for something they find on google images, slap the word "orbal" in front of it and call it a day. It started out kinda cool as like a steampunky magical industrial revolution where people made airships and cool magic shit but now they just make smartphones and laptops and instagram. It became so uninspired.
