The State of Crossbell

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/1/0/5/AAO9CbAAEw9R.jpg

An independent (I guess?) country located between the massive Erebonian Empire, and the huge Calvard Republic. Disputed by both.

Such a situation means massive political instability, which likely brings a lot of other problems: organized crime, drug trafficking, human trafficking, corruption, gang wars, ancient shady organizations with their Phantasmal Plans and their Blazy Plots... you name it.

So how do we deal with all that depravity? How do we make our beloved Crossbell a safe place, a place children can grow up in?

With government programs to increase employment and proper social welfare policies that allow people to stay afloat and not fall into a life of crime even in times of economic downturn, as well as quality public education so that the youth can have something to look forward to, and a fair and balanced justice system that focuses on reforming criminals and turning them into productive members of society?

Hahaha. Of course not. Did you actually believe all that liberal crap? No, my friend.

We are going to use Cops.

Yeeeeeeeeeah. Those guys.

I'm sorry.

Ok so, I was originally going to call this playthrough thread Trails: ACAB Edition.

But then I realized since the cops are the main characters, this game probably wants to make me like them.

Heck, if anyone can make me enjoy a piece of copaganda and not feel like it's insulting my intelligence (other than Brooklyn 99, I suppose), it's this series.

Why, it has already made me have good feelings about military, the monarcy, capitalism, mainstream press and organized religion. It can probably do the same with cops.

So let's embark on a 2 game journey to answer the age old question: Are All Cops Bastards? Where we will explore the characters, the humor, the overly complicated customization systems, and where I'll hopefully make every anti-cop joke I can think of.

Now, without further ado, let's play...
