| Topic | Irony plays The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel *spoilers* |

It was actually the first Nihon Falcom game I played (yes, I was very late to the party). People compared it a lot to Persona, which is what made me buy it, but really the only similarity is that the characters are in high school. It basically has the orbment system of the Cold Steel games, but with a real time combat system that's very similar to older Ys games. Only one character actively participates in battle (as opposed to all 3 being on screen in Ys 8 & 9) and each character has a specific element type for their attacks. So you have to swap between your 3 characters to exploit elemental weaknesses. Like many recent Nihon Falcom games, it was originally a Vita game and the limitations of that really show in the dungeon designs. The dungeons are, for the most part bland corridors that look largely the same. But they do try to keep it interesting with puzzles in the dungeons. Also, as mentioned Towa is in Tokyo Xanadu, as the main character's older cousin, but she isn't actually connected to the Cold Steel games. Just a funny cameo, since it's the same developers. Overall, it was a fun game and the story was interesting, albeit filled with anime tropes. --- PSN - NoxObscuras Z490 | i9-10900K | EVGA 3080 FTW3 Ultra | 32GB DDR4 3600 | 4TB SSD ...
