Did you pass on Zero and Azure as well or play them on PSP?

Cold Steel 3 is the continuation of Azure as well as CS2 so I'd say they're fairly critical for the story.

Has anyone in this topic played Tokyo Xanadu eX+?

I'm looking for a new JRPG to get from the PS4 store and I'm curious about this one. It looks like a Trails of Cold Steel clone.
I enjoyed it. 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.

Probably Towa

Towa is the basic bitch of favourite non- Class VII students.

ChrisTaka posted...
In terms of NPC/Non playable characters my favorite is Beryl. I find it funny how much shit she knows despite being unimportant to the story overall.

Or is she unimportant?

I second Vivi as best non-Class VII student. I also have a soft spot for Becky.

On the subject of character opinions, I finished CS3 recently and made a tier list of how much I like the cast up to this point.

I am not fond of tsunderes.

Did you expect me to say Hanako from Persona 4 after she snuck into this game?

She's annoying, but she actually sees development beyond just being a fat, oblivious foil for unrequited love.

I wanna play Trails in the Sky, but I don't have a PC so I can't play the 3rd

Technically you do not have to play the 3rd, as its story really isn't tied to the first two games. It just sets up a lot of the stuff for the games after and ties up some loose ends.

I didn't include the branch students on my list because it was already getting full, but I liked Freddy, Louise, and Tatiana. The rest are all kinda in "Sure, they're fine" tier.

I played the patch that was out last year which was average, but maybe I'll replay Azure before playing CS4.

I did the same thing with zero, but the initial translation out there was a leaked rough draft in need of an editing pass. Azure is still my favorite in the series.

I'm glad I don't have to worry about the spoilers, because wow that one would have made me mad to have spoiled.

Also, at the rate TC is going, it's going to take a loooong time to play through all 4 Cold Steel games lol. And my least favorite character is probably Machias. I don't hate him as a person, but my god do I hate using him in battles lol.

My least favorites are probably the combo of Elise and Alfin. For some reason, they took two nice characters and made 80% of their dialogue come back to incest jokes. It gets really old after a while, and I have no idea why the series continues to push it.

Omg, seriously. Those two are Angelica are all three tied for characters whose dialogue I flat out skip sometimes, even in the first play through of the game. I will read it, but too fast to let the voice actors really say much. No development in any of those characters, either.

Because they decided to go up their own ass with anime tropes. I miss when games were just anime art style, and not anime Slice of Life bullshit.

Seriously, why the hell does all of their conversation basically boiled down to, "If you're not gonna get it on with your brother someone else will."

Because it's an anime trope to have that borderline incest relationship between siblings. It takes the "childhood friend" romance and takes it one step further to make it a forbidden love. It's definitely weird, but Nihon Falcom really went all in on the anime tropes, so it's what we got.
