Yep, I'm loving TITS so far.



Tokusatsu! Capitalism!
Best Match!

Every time someone plays the originals, an angel gets it's wings, I have such strong feelings about the remake's new 'more faithful' translation which is much dryer and simpler. Have you been checking empty chests though? That's a highlight in the sprite based games

I've been looting chests like a maniac lol. I searched all of Rolent broke into all the houses and combed through surrounding areas for chests and readables.

This is my second RPG I've played and, again, I'm having an absolute blast. My first one was Tales of Zestiria which was...okay. I haven't had prior experience with RPGs before that so I didn't dislike it, but Trails in the Sky is a whole different experience. It's like I've been living in Plato's Cave my whole life before I finally see the sunlight outside lol.

Also, again, Estelle is a fun character. As someone told me on Discord, 'Estelle is Bestelle'.

Oh you misunderstood me, the sprite based games have a coding quirk, checking empty chests provides a fun gag

Is it the messages telling me how the chest is empty and snarking at me for checking anyways? I got a couple of those.

Oh thank goodness, they are the secret sauce that made these games extra special to me. Of course, Bestelle and everything are great too, but damn I miss the chest messages

Fumiya Takahashi of Kamen Rider Zero-One (played Aruto Hiden/Kamen Rider Zero-One) will play the protagonist Yoichi Isagi, Raizo Ishikawa of DonBrothers (played Jiro Momotani/Don Doragoku/Torabolt) will play Jingo Raichi, and Masataka Kubota of K-tai Investigator 7 (played protagonist Keita Amishima) will play Jinpachi Ego.

I need to play Trails one day. It seems like there are so many which makes it confusing where to start.

That's fair, especially as they're all connected, but the Trails in the Sky trilogy is the starting point of the series, anyone sayingnyou can start a later entry is inevitably setting you up to be confused when old characters return in a sequel of your different starting point. The remakes have diferrent terminology and a worse script but are made with all the current QoL and improvements to gameplay, though the original Sky games are dirtcheap on steam and GOG
