Trails in the Sky SC | THE FINALE!

[@NinjaPopeXue]

Great playthroughs of these two games! What a gem I stumbled upon one day on my KZbin home page. Whaddaya know, the algorithm is actually good for something sometimes. Love your guys' commentary and editing style, and I appreciate the effort it must take to constantly be having to line up two people's schedules to play these games. I'm here for your journey through Trails as long as you're willing to take it.

"Hey dragon pal, I have a feeling my daughter and soon-to-be son-in-law are about to free fall from a giant city in the sky. So how about it? Give me a ride and beers are on me this Saturday night?" "Thine offer is most appealing, O Mustachioed One. Throw in some wings of buffalo, and thou haveth thyself a deal." "Rad." *Sweet guitar riff plays*

joshua vs. loewe is one of the peaks of this game

One observation I've made about this franchise is that the longer the games go on, the more "standard" the dialogue gets, and my theory is that this is for a very meta reason: voice acting. The localization of the Sky games was never intended to be voiced by anyone, so the translators could really go ham in making the characters speak in very goofy ways, campy as you called it (especially Estelle). I actually think this does a lot to enhance the charm of the game. In later games though, there is quite a bit of voice acting so in turn the writing had to be "toned down" in a sense. You can even tell the difference in voiced cutscenes vs. unvoiced sections, i.e. NPC dialogue around the towns, the latter of which tends to be much wackier than the former. The actual source material is still excellent so it still makes for great writing overall, but it does lose some its more unique flavor. And as you mentioned, I'll be very curious to see what changes they'll incorporate for the remake, seeing as how it will now be voiced.

Kloe NOT WORTH USING even on easy mode if Loewe's s craft EITHER ONE OF THEM hits the party BOTH can do OVER 10,000 damage hence Kevin MUST NULL the damage ON YOUR FIrst turn.

my problem with the final argument is that I agree with neither estelle nor weissmann but weissmann is outlandishly evil while estelle is typical dumb jrpg protagonist saying typical dumb jrpg things.

1:11:42 this is illogical and doesn't make sense. while 1:11:58 this is also illogical and dumb.
