Ten years ago today, I posted fan art of Rean Schwarzer online for the first time. So I thought it’d be fun to redraw that art to celebrate ☺️ Happy Reaniversary!!

Listen, at one point not only did I have the Platinum Trophy for all 4 of the #ColdSteel games released up until that point, I also was a *WORLD RECORD HOLDER* for a speedrun of them back-to-back. Of COURSE I would stream #TrailsOfColdSteel #Reverie eventually! IT'S REAN TIME twitch.tv/sonicmega

I have finished tbe Crossbell Arc of #LegendOfHeros #Trails last night!
I have now entered the 3D games with #TrailsOfColdSteel

I have really enjoyed the Erebonia and Crossbell arcs in the Legend of Heroes, Trails series and finally picked up Reverie, I've heard mixed reviews but so far this seems like a really good wrapup for loose ends in the story. Big fan actually.
I DID go back and learn there is a secret ending to Cold Steel IV and was very happy about that.

I got dumped for the second time this year and it sucks. I will now perform the ritual of eating ice cream, drinking wine and playing my favorite JRPG series #legendofheroes specifically #trailsofcoldsteel

Juna from the #Trails series really changed after graduating, tho!

Biblioteczka #TeamPudełka powiększyła się też o jeden z tytułów z serii #TheLegendOfHeroes, a konkretnie pod-serii #Trails – #TrailsOfColdSteel2 😄
Dlaczego część druga, skoro nie mam części pierwszej? Bo dostępność tego wydania się coraz bardziej pogarsza, podczas gdy jedynka wciąż jest łatwiej dostępna. Oczywiście jej brak będę musiał szybko nadrobić.
A dlaczego w ogóle ta seria? Kończąc trylogię #Utawarerumono zacząłem szukać sobie kolejnego tytułu, lub serii, do ogrania. Seria #Trails zdecydowanie najczęściej przewijała się w polecajkach. Choć oczywiście nie może być za łatwo – jakbym chciał zapoznać się z nią w prawidłowej kolejności, powinienem zacząć od #TrailsInTheSky. Pozycji w którą właściwie nie da się dzisiaj zagrać 😅 Drugim polecanym punktem wejście, było właśnie #TrailsOfColdSteel i tak się tu znaleźliśmy.
Oczywiście w międzyczasie zapowiedziano remake pierwszej części serii – #TrailsInTheSkyThe1st – więc 2025 rok zapowiada się cudownie dla takich osób jak ja, nadrabiających #visualnovel.e sprzed lat ♥️
Samo wydanie, na pierwszy rzut oka nie zaskakuje – zwykle pudełko, ładna okładka. Dopiero po jego otworzeniu okazuje się, że dostajemy też alternatywna okładkę – niby pierdoła, ale doceniam.

There’s a nice Steam sale going on this week from XSEED and Marvelous! games. I’ve also seen a number of Bandai Namco games on sale, so I grabbed Code Vein and Tales of Arise while I was at it. They have been on sale for some time now. Time means days in Steam time. I’ve seen both games on PS+ for ages and never played them. Under the XSEED/Marvelous! banner, I bought something else.
I reacted so strongly against Trails in the Sky that I decided the best way to move on was buying another Trails game (right?!). This time, I decided to be careful. I would buy it, install it, and see if I liked it as soon as possible. We only have two hours to play and test a game before we either decide to ask for a refund or keep the game. When we run a Trails game for the first time, it displays a configuration tool, and the timer starts even when we’re only trying to figure out the appropriate config for our setup. My setup is not like a setup. It’s a laptop, so it was set up for me, which I am very grateful for. That didn’t discourage me from prying it open and upgrading my RAM because, for some reason, I decided it had to be a weekend project. Imagine the nerves. I never did that before in my life. This must be nothing to you but to me it was dangerous! You can’t imagine the obsessive preparation I did before to make up for my lack of experience. Now, I can proudly say that I’ve gained 500 XP, 100 Knowledge, 50 Endurance, and 1000 Faith.
But back to Trails. Trails in the Sky can pretty much be played in a calculator. I’m sure my Casio fx-991EX Classwiz could play the game if it wanted to. That little config tool was easy to set up, and the game was pretty much ready to go on my very old laptop, where I played it for the first time. I don’t know what I was expecting from a 2004 game. I’ve written somewhere in my first posts that I didn’t grow up playing these games. I don’t know how I should put this, but I do enjoy older games in general. I’m by no means a retro gamer, but I’m curious, and I want to learn about the millions of games I’ve overlooked. However, sometimes my body decides to reject some games, and it so happened that Trails in the Sky was one of those games.
The pastel colors and textures didn’t do any good for my sight, as I couldn’t identify many elements in the open world. During the exploration in the first town, I tried panning the camera, although the way it moved as well as the perspective gave me nausea. Traversing the town was painful, to say the least, and I was constantly losing my sense of direction because I wanted the camera to stay static, except I had to move it, either left or right, to see my characters. I tried the map, maybe it could help me, yet I found it very hard to read. I barely used it, but of course, I had to in order to complete the first quests. Navigating the dungeon (sewers?) was easy, but the combat appeared to be very convoluted. I didn’t enjoy navigating the menus, and at a certain point, I had loads of crap I didn’t know what to do with. The thing is, this was not like Shin Megami Tensei or Persona, where I didn’t know what to do, but I wanted to learn it so badly. In Sky, I just wanted it to be over with. -400 Willpower.
I pressed on and completed the quest where we had to save two or three kids. Then we had to go all the way back to the village and then home. I found my way back home (took me a while) and read the conversation between Estelle, Joshua, and their father. It was a cozy moment of respite. Our father had to depart somewhere, and we would be on our own from then on, completing quests to get stronger and wiser. I’d love to see the story through, but I decided to say my goodbyes to our father at the station before closing the game for good. It was the least I could do. I cared about those characters, but I cared more about myself. +100 Dodge.
I even read some guides without spoilers and intended to put my experience out there. I’m glad I didn’t because the Trails community can be very… passionate, especially when there’s conflict of opinions, and I didn’t have the time nor energy to deal with the consequences of my ramblings. Some kind souls on Reddit expressed the need for a full-on remake of the Sky trilogy to accommodate new players. You can only imagine the backlash. It wasn’t violent, but if you’re any good at reading between the lines, there were layers there. It’s like saying in public that you’re happy with the implementation of casual mode in Fire Emblem. Layers.
You could ask me why you want to like a game so badly? Because I lack a personality of my own. It’s because I’ve read countless words of love about the series. I wanted to partake in that love and sense of discovery and adventure. Trails games are known for their long and riveting story arcs. I don’t think it’s wrong to at least experience one of those arcs, even if it’s not the best one. Thus, I decided to dig further, comparing games, taking a closer look at screenshots, and finally going for Trails of Cold Steel on this week’s sale.
Before launching the game, I had to go through the config tool. I enjoy testing different types of settings, but I didn’t have much time. The 2 hours mark, remember? I launched the game. The first cutscene was stuttering at times. Something went wrong, the clock was ticking, I had to quit the game, enter the config tool again, and lower the MSAA. It got better with no visible loss. I just wanted to try the game to see if it was playable or if it had buildings trying to aim at my jaw. And, Seiros in heaven, it was! It’s a 3D game. I’m inside the environment with no camera or angle issues. I was never so happy to experience such an evolution! The map was readable, with zoom in/out and camera angles. The textures were fine, and due to the lighting and sharpness, I didn’t even have to squint!
I’d like to play more but it was too late yesterday. Estelle isn’t there, nor is the rural setting from Sky. I’m at a military academy, in a special class with commoners and nobles, a bit like in Three Houses. I’d like to have time to try the combat at my level. The game started some months after the initial events, so the first fight went smoothly with no issues. I tried crafts, attacks, and arts. I think it’s possible to build a nice variety of characters with buffs, debuffs, and magic attacks without freaking out about the menu navigation. Making plans is always a good sign. I’m still on the fence, though, but I found this first experience very promising.
I’ve played a bit more today and decided to keep the game. There’s only so much we can do on a Trails game before the timer runs out. There’s a lot of dialogue, and I didn’t find it necessary to skip anything. The game shows its age in terms of graphics, but everything else seems to be working just fine. Occasionally, I experienced some minor issues with character movement when I break objects, but it’s nothing serious, at least so far. I’m curious about some characters and what they have in store for our group. I only went through the normal introductions and inside the first dungeon. I experimented with the combat and familiarized myself with the ARCUS combat orbment. I’ll learn as I go, as I always do. This can be the beginning of a love story or just a good time! I’m good with either! In the end, I forgot to ask myself if I had the time to play it.

2023 Completed Game No. 12 - #TheLegendofHeroes #TrailsofColdSteel
great story though i felt that it held itself back because it was trying to align with the events of Trails to Azure as evident with how things really ramped up at the end
-
Final Battle ready and i still have Shining Pom bait left. but from what i head read Rean only needs to be Lv 80+ to maximize the Level Transfer Bonus
-
Press F to shit bricks.
Emma avoids Vanish and Deathblow because it's my general goto to give my main caster the Grail Locket and Deathblow Immunity, but HOLY SHIT that was close
-
there's no Elise this time and none of the people here triggered the Red Door the first time it appeared
but Celine is there and she lead Elise to the Red Door before it was triggered. is the Potential Awakener being detected her?
-
Kiseki is going to give me an irrational paranoia for bells some day. still, what is with Ancient Zumeria and bells anyway
-
he is sooooo lucky that neither Towa or Sara are a certain girl with a huge stick, because otherwise i would expect ultra violence to happen
-
after a certain point there is no more characters you can add to the train so i'm glad Falcom still tried to find a way to change up the title screen this late into the game
-
if Neithardt is tied up at Garrelia Fortress with prep for the attack on Crossbell, he might've been in it when that White Aion cleaves it out of existence.
heres hoping that the Fortress was just teleported rather than destroyed
-
getting the feeling this is the same bird from the intro. but this late in the game i got this suspicion that some of the stuff in the intro is for Cold Steel 2
also my gut is telling me that's one of the Anguis, Abyss maybe?
-
hasn't Rixia only been performing for like less than a year? already got the loyal fanbase lol
i think Rixia's biggest fan will be always be Ilya though

Commission - an AU where Siegfried is an assassin and Rean is a prince! #art #イラスト #trailsofcoldsteel #trailsseries #軌跡シリーズ -
#TrailsIntoReverie has been a very generous game and one that is more evidently a product of love that #TrailsOfColdSteel 4. I still had to give up on the expectation that the game would have anything interesting meaningful to say since it is still harpening on the same rote themes of redemption that have been a staple for the series. Without that pretense the game is fun and fast paced. I am yet to finish so I reserve the right to be cliffhanged by kiseki one more time
-
Having finished Cold Steel IV (just in time for Reverie!), I gotta say I'm pretty happy about the Cold Steel arc. It's not perfect, and suffers massively from a core cast that's just too big. But given all the constraints that Falcom put on themselves, they still nailed the landing. Looking forward to Reverie to act as an epilogue for both Cold Steel and Crosbell, and as an apetizer for the Calvard arc, how 3rd was for Cold Steel. #kiseki #falcom #reverie #trailsofcoldsteel #gaming

A commission of Kloe and Lechter from the Trails series based on that one Barbie meme. I really had a lot of fun with this, especially their expressions.

Man, July 7th is a long time away. Ive been waiting for this localization since the game was released in Japan in 2020.
And where were the crew from Liberl in this Trailer? They were def part of the voice cast announcement.

I am genuinely looking forward to this anime, Trails of Cold Steel- Northern War.
The games have made me care deeply about the world Falcom built, and I always thought it was such a missed opportunity that we only hear of the war in North Ambria through exposition.
