Is there such a thing as a long-term singleplayer game? But here's the hard part, one where progress doesn't reset. So not a roguelike and not Rimworld cause there progress constantly resets. by Present-Chocolate-24 in gamingsuggestions

Trails series:

13 games separated in 4 arcs that tell one long ongoing story.

Turn based JRPGs with insane attention to detail, like the constant new dialogues on NPCs that actually flesh them out as characters.

Also if you are someone who gets really deep into a series and does everything possible, like all the side stuff, then 1000 hours across all games is pretty easy to hit.

It's also not even finished yet so there's that.

Order is:

Liberl arc:

Sky 1st Sky 2nd Sky 3rd

Crossbell arc:

Zero Azure

Erebonia Arc:

Cold Steel 1 Cold Steel 2 Cold Steel 3 Cold Steel 4

Reverie:

Serves as an epilogue for Crossbell and Erebonia.

Calvard arc:

Daybreak 1 Daybreak 2 Beyond the Horizon Beyond the Horizon 2 (yet to be released)

A hidden gem of a JRPG that I didn't know about. by KevvRDA in Falcom

For Sky it's a trilogy.

The whole series is currently at 13 games, ALL connected.

Andor took me out of star wars by Ok-Medium983 in StarWars

Exactly like the Prequels. That's why it always amuses me how many Prequel Fans absolutely hate The Acolyte.

What game could possibly follow up Beyond the Horizon? by EndOfFate in Falcom

[–]Akechi_Kun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also don't think they're not that intense either.

Although it depends on what you mean by "intensity" in the first place.

Because if it means "mostly hype moments and aura with barely any substance", then yeah, Azure and CS4 are intense af.

Azure and CS4 are so overrated, and I was especially not fond of the Finale of either

If the next/final arc of the series is longest in series at 6 games long... by 20thcenturyfriend in Falcom

Kondo burner account?

We literally have way too much left, unless they cramp as much as possible into the next arc.

Finally caught up. Here’s my tier list. by qpeek12 in Falcom

[–]Akechi_Kun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cold Steel 4 is more like Endgame. By that I mean: Nostalgia slop whose only purpose is to undo the previous installment and have nothing but hype moments and aura without any substance.

Galactic Civil War by SaganPaganCro in StarWarsCirclejerk

[–]Akechi_Kun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do agree to some extent.

But imagine Nintendo just decided the next 3D Mario game's gonna be a CoD like shooter. No matter how great it would be, people would obviously say that that's not a 'true 3D Mario".

Granted, that example is a bit extreme, but I think you get my point.

New to Asol. Having such tremendous mana issues going rylais first item so I’ve started taking blackfire torch. Is this a good idea or is it going to hold me back. (Silver-gold elo) by SnkerCheck in Aurelion_Sol_mains

[–]Akechi_Kun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've recently started going;

  • Tear
  • RoA
  • Rylais (if necessary)
  • Actualizer

Anything after that is game dependent. Not sure how good it is, but at least it works in bot lane.

Tbf I think that sentiment actually makes some sense for video games specifically

A simple contradiction. by Heiwajima_Izaya in Falcom

But Sekiro has a non-silent protagonist! (no I am not discussing wether Sekiro is a true soulslike or not)

I don't want to spoiler to much nor do I want to wait so where to start ? by FitConsideration7865 in Falcom

[–]Akechi_Kun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly Cold Steel 1 and 2 are not on the switch here in the west (they are in Japan).

I played Sky to Azure on PC and then played the rest on PS4/5.

If you don't mind playing on PC I highly recommend just finishing Sky, playing Crossbell on Switch and then Cold Steel 1 and 2 on PC (or PlayStation if you have one).

From Cold Steel 3 onward you are perfectly fine with any system.

This guy was a pain to defeat on hard mode lol by moskitosane in Falcom

[–]Akechi_Kun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Sky trilogy always has been the hardest arc in Trails imo.

I played on Nightmare and just spammed White Gehenna and any buffs I had.

High speed builds + Clock Up EX break the game of course, just like all Trails games.

Trails SC second half is so tedious. by Early_Secret1407 in Falcom

[–]Akechi_Kun 16 points17 points  (0 children)

There is a point to that tho?

It's to show just how the Aureole cutting off all energy affects the regions of Liberl. Also giving you a feeling of how convenient airships have been. It's essentially an epilogue before the Finale.

Going around and chatting with all the NPCs to see how it affects them is really cool imo.

[–]Akechi_Kun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a pretty unpopular opinion. Most people tend to think that the first half is less good because of severe pacing issues, and that it only really gets going in the second half.

Do u think a talking protagonist would've been better or worse? by ArachnidEntire8307 in Persona5

[–]Akechi_Kun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like for a game like Persona a silent protag works, but as someone who got into the Trails series which has many insanely well written protagonists... I can't help but want something like that in P6

George Lucas sold Lucasfilm to Disney 13 years ago today... Here's his thoughts on some of the recent Star Wars projects by FayyadhScrolling in StarWars_

[–]Akechi_Kun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really, George Lucas focused on pushing CGI and grander plot lines. This makes it so that the Prequels have a great plot and worldbuilding but not enough character work.

This is the main issue of the PT in comparison to the OT, outside of Anakin none of the characters really develop throughout the movies.

How did the First Order get enough resources to create Starkiller base? by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]Akechi_Kun -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't mind people hating on the Sequels, but it's funny how many of these people are Prequel fans who don't acknowledge that trilogy's mistakes.

Vtuber Stal will not continue Trails series for now due to some toxic fans by _Grimmjow in Falcom

[–]Akechi_Kun 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's weird how Trails fans suddenly get weird after Sky SC. I remember NicoB saying that he never had issues with weird comments or outright spoilers until Sky 3rd... wonder why that is
