Also, I'm probably going to wait until I finish up with Frasier before I start on Dragon Ball (which should be sometime within the next couple weeks, I'd guess). I'm also probably going to wait a bit until I start my next new game because I've been spreading myself thin between Trails the 3rd, Frasier, and this insane Ace Attorney project I've committed myself to doing. Plus, I've got the Persona 5 anime now and the Steins;Gate 0 and Full Metal Panic animes coming soon! I need to cut back a little so it doesn't interfere with real life too much because I'm bad about trying to make sure I get something from all these things in every day and neglecting stuff I should probably be doing instead.

SC > FC > 3rd

pyresword 04/22/18 10:24:59 PM #11: |
3rd pretty easily has my favorite soundtrack of the series among the games I've played. Though I guess it is a bit weird because I think the best FC/SC songs are better than the best 3rd songs, but I think 3rd has a noticeably better average song quality.
Cradle Where Feelings Rest is probably my favorite song because I'm weird like that, but I honestly think like 90% of the soundtrack is great. --- Congratulations to BK_Sheikah00, this year's guru to achieve contest enlightenment! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Trails the 3rd just lacks the sense of scale and importance of the other two. It's essentially a giant victory lap. A darn good one, but nevertheless, it lacks substance that FC and SC possess. Plus, I'm not as big on Kevin and Ries as I am on Joshua and Estelle, so switching protagonists affects its rating a bit.

Not quite sure what this means? I don't think the concept of a victory lap is that difficult but would it be better if I said Trails the 3rd is essentially an epilogue or an appendix to the first two games? the events of the main game aren't really all that important other than fleshing out Kevin's character it's largely a celebration of the characters with some bonus fanservice via all the Doors Mac Arrowny posted...

it probably meant as much to him as it did to me, i.e. neither of us had any real expectations that it would be anything other than the third best Trails game
all I had to do was tell him that the last chapter was probably the best part of the main game with a strong ending and post my inequality so he could see this mysterious "Erika" in the top 5 that he doesn't know and he was good to go but then I mentioned the implications of Erebonia's political situation that we briefly see in 3rd and his eyes lit up like it was FFT or Game of Thrones --- ...

I wanted to read the TVTropes page for Trails in the Sky (I used all the characters it listed on the character page to come up with the inequality) but then I saw that it literally spoils Cold Steel stuff there too where applicable (which is not cool) so I guess I'll have to wait

I think both the Cold Steel games that have English releases are noticeably worse than the Sky games, though they're pretty great RPG's themselves also.
Cold Steel 3/4 looks hype as hell though, and my reading is that the portion of the fanbase that has played CS3 considers it to be one of the stronger Trails games. Also about The 3rd, I think the right way to look at the game is as the video game equivalent of a short story collection, rather than a main entry in an adventure epic. In other words I don't really think it matters that the game doesn't have a strong overarching focus on an epic narrative, because to me that's never what the game was trying to be in the first place. And I think the individual stories (including the main one) are quite good--personally I think 3rd easily has the most "top-tier" moments of the series. (Well of the games in English anyway. I've heard quite good things about Ao, which I of course haven't played.) Obviously that's not exactly a story structure that falls into well-established JRPG conventions, and it's not going to be everyone's cup of tea, but those are my thoughts anyway. --- Congratulations to BK_Sheikah00, this year's guru to achieve contest enlightenment! ...

Meanwhile I've spoiled myself on basically the entire Crossbell arc and a number of (seemingly minor, thankfully) things from CS3. Being an English Trails fan is hell.
Many of the Crossbell things I intentionally spoiled myself on, admittedly, though a few including one major spoiler were not. --- Congratulations to BK_Sheikah00, this year's guru to achieve contest enlightenment! ... Copied to Clipboard!

I mean I openly stated that I recognize this game isn't the same structurally as the other two
it's just not as good as they are and I'm not of the same mind as you and xp regarding its strengths I don't think it's got the best OST and I don't think it has the most top tier moments --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

pyresword 04/23/18 10:02:32 PM #48: |
I will say it's not actually my favorite Trails game either, though I do regard it very highly. In particular I think chapter 6 drags on for too long (if I remember the doors you unlock here were mostly not great also?). Also I think the way they introduce the central story is not great. Once it becomes clear it's mainly exploring Kevin's past (which is relatively early) I think it's fine, but it did take a bit of time for me to get on board with it.
