hey you got an extra month now to replay CS1 and 2 or track down the fan translations of the Crossbell games
---

i honestly remember very little of cs1 and 2 at this point cuz I played them on the vita like a true gamer
---

I'm conflicted on what to do about crossbell

the good translation of Zero isn't done yet do I wait for that or just play the worse one
---

I generally speaking haven't been bothered by the Zero translation so far, though they did mess up one important scene I think.

I also have a somewhat high tolerance for these things in general though I think.
---

The Zero translation is fine. You get used to the issues it has in like 15 minutes.

Thats sad it got delayed though :(

I really wanted to wait for geofront but with no proper update in 6 months I feel I probably should just go with the older ones and replay it at 6x speed when the geofront one is out
---

oops
---

Probably wanting to play it safe after Ys VIII - that's fine.
---

oh thank God, September was ridiculously packed
---

They need to delay it so they can finally add Coldsteel as a character like they always should have
---

Shame about the delay. September-December is a bit of a wasteland for good games other than this and Doom Eternal.
---

Yeah, I don't think they wanted it to get buried under all the big games in September.
---

Rewatching the end of 3rd real quick to remember the status of certain characters before going into Zero
---

=(

boo

But if they need the extra time to get things right then so be it.
---

Fwiw floofy on Reddit today said it's still their goal to finish the Geofront translation before CS3 is out. Make of that what you will.

hngggg now what do I do you're making this decision harder
---

I mean you'd still have to play Azure unedited anyway and it'd probably be even harder to go from edited Zero to unedited Azure

Azure was edited before it was released. It reads way better than Zero does.
---

Its definitely not edited the way Zero is going to be though. Geofront is 'localizing' it the way XSeed does by giving the characters more personality in their dialogue etc (like how Estelle says "Holy Stregas!" in FC but in the JP version its just a generic exclamation of surprise)

The Flame edit simply fixed some unclear wording, bad grammar, spelling, etc.

It's not going to be anywhere near the same thing.

okay yeah this isn't too bad. The fact it added in the japanese voice acting from the Evolution version helps make more sense of what's indended for some of the lines
---

I rigged it up to run the game on my Steam Link to my living room TV

For some reason I have no patience for RPGs when sitting at my computer, but I can play them all day when in my recliner

Lead editor for Zero says 'probably not' to a release before CS3.

Fire Emblem, Crystar, The Somnium Files, Control, Astral Chain.

I'll be fine.

Only issue is making sure I finish before Death Stranding comes out.
---

Now I feel I made the right decision to start Zero the other day
---

I think Lloyd has Rean beat when it comes to non blood related siblings
