Lloyd doesn't deserve to be with the best girl, so it's perfectly fitting to ship him with the worst girl.

Some of the Daydreams are written by other authors than the main story author, which explains why they might not necessarily fit into canon. that, uh, explains a lot. Specifically, that the writing quality in JP varies pretty wildly in them. Though it backs up something that I've felt again and again over the last few months, that Reverie is technically so much better written than Hajimari that it distorts/improves so much of the experience. Case in point, Reverie making someone like Lloyd's character more is just bizarroland stuff to me >_> --- Nonsense.

maybe the real mvp is robbie daymond then because while I think my first Reverie post noted how weird it felt to me hearing the Crossbell cast in English again since I was coming pretty recently from Zero + Azure leading up to this by the end he is my lloyd now.
His performance was top-notch. I mean, I think the VAs for English Trails have generally done an excellent job overall but yeah. --- May you find your book in this place. Formerly known as xp1337. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Hmm, maybe. I've generally tried not to look up the English VA's because I suspect I'm not gonna like it (case in point: i have Opinions(tm) on the Daybreak trailer). It's one of those things where, at best, it's going to equal the original, and at worst it will make me angry, so >_>

I definitely did not like Lloyd more after Reverie.
Many characters maintained the same standing more or less, but really the only major characters I liked more as a result of Reverie are Rean and the Ironbloods, and in the case of the latter it's in large part because I was previously at an all-time low on them due to how Cold Steel 4 went down. I guess maybe Ash actually, now that I think about it. Also I suppose Reverie didn't make me like Renne more exactly, but it did make me much more enthusiastic about her continued presence in the series. --- I didn't do guru this year but azuarc can be in my sig anyways. ...

Robbie Daymond is excellent. I've yet to hear him in anything where I did not enjoy his performance. I think the English voice acting for Trails up to this point has generally been pretty solid, but he's a highlight, for sure.
Now the voice acting in that first English Daybreak trailer is...suspect, to say the least. --- https://imgur.com/WqDcNNq https://imgur.com/89Z5jrB ... Copied to Clipboard!

Thorn 10/31/23 6:09:15 PM #408: |
IDK, I feel like the VAs for Cold Steel through Reverie are pretty damn solid. I think the only one I think is a complete miss is English Campanella. But even in cases where I prefer the JPN VA like Tio that's more a credit to the JPN seiyuu and nothing against her English VA.
Although I should note that I only extensively have heard the JPN voice track for Zero and Azure so it's really only Crossbell characters (and some of the Liberl ones) I can do a direct comparison on. --- May you find your book in this place. Formerly known as xp1337. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I mean, I wanted to avoid any in-depth discussion on specifics until I'm actually done with the game since the Reverie Corridor is still a thing but...
I'd say characters that I felt had weaker roles here were (in no particular order): I consider this distinct from certain plotlines I did not like. I feel like I mentioned a few of these as I went but: --- May you find your book in this place. Formerly known as xp1337. ... Copied to Clipboard!

So how do I know when I've done everything there is to do in the Reverie Corridor? I know I can go back out now, but the game also lets you rearrange stuff and refills treasure chests. I guess the main thing I'm asking is if I can get more Red, Blue, and Gold Spheres after my first time through or if I have to wait until the next time I can come back.

Finished book 4 of the Wheel of Time
I remembered this as one of the strongest books in the series and this time was no different. Moghedien is awesome. The Aiel are awesome. I'd somehow managed to forget entirely about the section where Great book overall. They might have spent a bit too much time moping around at the start, though I suppose I'm just going to have to resign myself to that if I have any hope of making it through the series this time around. No actually sure whether I liked this or The Great Hunt more but they're both cleanly ahead of books 1 and 3. I guess I'll go with 4 > 2 > 1 > 3 as the ranking for now. *This view might be influenced a bit by the fact that I most recently dropped the series right in the middle of what I'm told is the worst of it for Perrin and Faile. --- I didn't do guru this year but azuarc can be in my sig anyways. ...
