Current Events > Trails of Cold Steel III gets delayed to October 22.

(+) Yeah! (+)

https://gematsu.com/2019/07/the-legend-of-heroes-trails-of-cold-steel-iii-delayed-to-october-22-in-north-america-and-europe

Previously it was September 24/27 for NA/EU.

On one hand I feel some relief. It's time for me to wrap up Ao, take a brief break, and dive into my Cold Steel II replay without feeling rushed. On the other hand, goddammit I'm upset and impatient. :(

@Alucard188

lolol

I'm fine with the delay if it means it's a quality product. I tend to play games as the feeling envelops me. For instance, I didn't play Cold Steel 1 until 2 was out, so I feel disinclined to start Cold Steel 3 immediately. I've also been deep into Fallout 4.

I still need to continue Trails of the Sky SC

I got the chapter 8 and then I felt like taking a break.

Disappointing though my backlog is so big that doesn't truly matter. Probably still be working on Three Houses in September anyway.

How do you feel about big ol' cliffhangers? If you hate them, it's a really good idea to take your time getting to III.

How many hours do you have in Fallout 4 now? You've been on it for a while. :o

Chapter 8 in SC? Woo, you stopped at some hype stuff imo! SC has been my favorite of the franchise though so I'm probably a wee bit biased.

I've heard Three Houses has some really high potential this time around, too. I'll play it at some point but not at launch.

Thank God. I'm fine with everything being delayed, the next 6 months are loaded as is and I'm not even a fan. And why is trails 2 so hard to find? No store has it in stock anywhere.

That was unfucked, and for CSIII they have a lot of previous Kiseki localization people working on it. Even Brittany, before she got sick and moved home.

Cold Steel II? I didn't know that one would be hard to find, that's really weird. What version are you looking for? I know the recent PS4 port just released here so I imagine that would be easier. Maybe shipment was really limited. :/

I know how these games work with Falcom. The cliffhangers are a good literary device to create investment, but waiting months/years to continue the story is eeeeeh. I went right into TitS SC after beating FC because that cliffhanger was massive. Same with CS1 and 2. I'm waiting a while until we get a firmer release date for CS4 before I look to start CS3.

Over 120 hours on this character so far. I've spent comparatively little on the storyline missions.

Yeah, it's fairly frustrating. For those in Japan or know Japanese, the wait is way more lenient, but localization times have never been consistent. I'm looking forward to CSIII tons, but what about CSIV? >_> Hoping III sales are good thanks to the increased marketing. NISA has its problems, but it also has its perks.

Indeed. They've teased remastering Ao and Zero for NA release pretty recently, so you'd have to figure that the series is doing well for itself. Didn't Kondo come out and say CS2 was its biggest release ever?

Surprisingly no. It's just _really_ scratching that itch that I had for a while. I got lost in opening up settlements, connecting them all together via provisioners, making a couple of hub markets, and level up companion affinity. I'm doing Far Harbor DLC right now.

Yeah, a Crossbell remaster would be so amazing. *_* And I think CSII is, yeah, but it's been a while so I'm not 100% sure. I know with Cold Steel it's easier for a lot of people to start the franchise with.

Edit: Oh, and my current save has 6 days, 7 hours, and 52 minutes of playtime on it.

Dayum. I've only played through it once before all the DLC was out, I regret not messing with settlements more. I really need to someday, it's my kind of thing, too.

Im still waiting for the Trails From Zero fan translation (and to play Trails from Ao after that obv) before i start the cold steel series.

All i really want is confirmation cold steel 4 will be translated

Any PC release in sight?

I just lost an hour and a bit of my night because upon completion of a quest for an NPC in Far Harbor, I gain access to a farm. I can build there. You see, normally the game forces you to build around pre-existing edifices. Not on this farm. You can scrap virtually the entire fucking thing. So, I made a ramshackle mansion for two people, one being my provisioner.

same. Hopefully NISA doesn't drop the ball hard with III. If not I feel pretty good about them doing CSIV as well.

No, and tbh there shouldn't be until they're done with the console port they're focusing on now.
