They have localized the first game (Zero) and are working on the second (Azure). Check out there FAQ's - basically you'll need to buy a legit copy of the game on the online official store then apply the English patch. On PC. Remember I played BEFORE the geofront translations with torrents - but I highly recommend you do it the geofront way as it also supports falcom and you'll get a way better experience.

Going through the Trails series as I started with the Crossbell duology on the Switch and just finished CS 2 on PS5 and I loved the parallels between CS2 and Azure (which is most likely intentional since they occur roughly around the same time) but also how different they with their endings. Azure was the prime definition of "I won but at what cost" and Cold Steel 2 simply felt like a hollow victory.

So i have yet to play cs 3 due to rl reasons but i will probably start this month and am looking forward to it. Other than that i have been wondering who is the strongest mc in the trails series and in my experience of having played all games till cs 2, i made this list. *spoilers* 1.Kevin Graham A grailister and if he uses his stigma, he should be able to put a fight against the lance maiden and mcburn. He also killed the wiseman so thats something. 2.Rean Schwazer I think without valimar and with his awakening, he can probably one up many of the strong fighters we have seen, an example is when he beat crow and was gonna overpower rixia in cs 2. 3.Estelle Bright Its been a while since i played sky but i cant recall her performing any remarkable solo feats. But she is an A ranked bracer and hence is definetly stonger than the fianl position holder. 4.Loyd Bannings Well he is a detective and is also not even the strongest of his team(says that randy is stronger) so here it is. He is more of a guy that is stronger in a team. Ofcourse this is only based on my knowledge which extends to cs 2 and it will probably change when characters get stronger in 3 and 4. If i am wrong in the bounds of cs 2 then please correct me. Also i hope that falcom makes a remaster of trails of the sky with 3D sprites as i personally preferred that series over CS.

Just beat the game last week. Man I don't know what to say. This is the best game in the series so far, evening beating out the ending for CS2. Haven't played CS4. Anyways, the CS games don't really have a climax except for the endings. And just like in CS2 you spend half the story reuniting with class vii. In this game it felt there was a climax where it was supposed to be (usually at the midpoint of the story). The part with Juna in crossbell. If you're out there wanting to get this game, my advice is you should probably buy Rean's unspeakable outfit. Combine that with blonde hair that you unlock in the game and you make Rean look like Cloud Strife from AC lol. His OG outfit in this game makes him look old and does not fit him at all.

I'm genuinely confused and don't understand that happened in the finale. She forbade him from sticking Cedric into the machine but sat back and fought with Crow to protect him while he had Cedric blindfolded in front of the machine she forbade him from putting him into... and it didn't raise any red flags. What was he going to do if not place him in there and how did he control him once he did?

You know, as someone who didn't play the "Crossbell Arc" (still not sold on the whole tedious process to play the "unofficial" English release of that Arc), it was EXTREMELY INFURIATING when Rean finally learned who his father is (i.e. Osborne), but then, they NEVER followed-up with a much needed "father & son" conversation OR even HOW Obsorne came back to life (I predicted him to return after the events of the 1st COS game, but I STILL can't figure out HOW he came back to life? Resurrection? Travel to the past to change events? A clone? I don't know...). I just hope COS III explores and give us a PROPER explanation on all that (and not just expect us to read and play everything, including "Japanese-only" games to say the least).

I know some people don't like CSI and II, but honestly, your problems with the epilogue in II are the only problems I had with the two games. That and Towa seeming to be the only one who realised where Rean's mental state was. The fact that the rest of Class VII seemed to be oblivious of it really irritated me. The game would have been so much better if they had just let us imagine Class VII finished their second year of study without incident. There are problems with that from a storytelling point of view, but so many less than the route they went with. Edit: There's something else we know about the Gnomes... Namely that one of the characters we have constantly come into contact with has the initial G and the surname Nome...

They couldn't have made that part about the nome thing any more obvious if they tried lol. I definitely agree about what you said about Rean's mental state.

It was obvious if you just look at how rean was acting and what he'd been through. I would personally have liked if whoever you chose as Rean's partner had a scene with him that was something like what happened with towa and they pull Rean aside and he breaks down to them instead.

Well I just finished cold steel 2. I binged 1 and 2 in literally 4 weeks. It took close to 200 hours. And I'm actually really sad. That first ending after the first final boss with the "I'll remember you" song, still makes me cry just thinking of it. I didn't even LIKE crow. But something about the tragedy of his character, and the way his relationship with rean was written so earnestly, just got to me. As did rean. I did NOT like rean. At all. I felt like he was the most overused, tropey, gary stu, anime protagonist ever. But the divertissement epilogue really punched me in the gut HARD. Like, here's this upbeat, optimistic kid trying to find himself - aaaand now he's a military asset betraying all his ideals that were built up so carefully over 180hours of game time. These games dragged a lot, the final-final dungeon was completely unnecessary, some mechanics/quests/dialogue were utterly annoying. But in the end I am more intrigued and invested, even emotionally than I ever thought I'd be. So I'll start the sky arc as soon as I can... after playing some lighter games.

While its rough here and there, the whole game is pretty much readable. So don't let ppl say otherwise.

@@sharriefflhamilton586 last I heard (earlier this year) is that there still wasn't a way to play Ao no Kiseki Evolution in English, but it might be possible to play the PSP original version in English on a Vita? Not sure. I play the Crossbell games on PC only.

Totally agree about the CS 2 ending being just super weird, like especially considering everything that had happened and what Rean was going through, some of his friends would absolutely not leave him, its so poorly explained and so out of place its hard to believe. Especially considering some of them had no reason to leave whatsoever, like Alisa, suddenly wanting to join her mom and of course she makes a general manager in a year... o.O. On top of which how freaking genius, talented and prodigeous must everyone there be to not only finis two year school in one year, but also in some cases finish another school in a year and find a job by the start of CS 3. These kinds of details, how everyone is important and related to someone important in the story, makes me really pissed at times, it just takes me out of the plot, its all convenience, not hard work and luck.

@KillScottKill5 жыл бұрын
Well... Being told he was alive at the end of Azure, for one. And the multiple games worth of buildup leading into Cold Steel that clearly painted Osborne as the main villain of the arc. And being told his body disappeared at the start of Act 2, if you still didn't know all of that.

@@KillScottKill I didnt know Azure mentioned him being alive. But cmon, his body disapperaing with that OBVIOUS big hole in his chest couldnt possibly imply him being alive. It only makes sense in retrospect, but at least 70% of all players and watchers of a blind lets play were shocked.

gamerprince1999 This is why literally every Kiseki fan constantly says play the crossbell games and even if you know that, there is much more to experience than just knowing that specifically.

Well it's technically not really a spoiler since u ARE suppose to know the story of the Previous titles before playing Cold Steel 3 since it incorporates all the knowledge of the crossbell and sky games
