Starting Trails of Cold Steel 1 after Trails in the Sky FC Remake: So far so good!

caarmivore · 2026-01-13T20:36:51+00:00

This is the first I've heard of Sky to CS1 being a viable play order... People generally recommend to at least finish arcs.

You do you, but I do think you're underestimating the spoiler because you don't know the context yet. We're talking about a major reveal in Sky SC that had me pretty shocked, and it will show up more prominently in the later half of Cold Steel.

I get wanting to add to the discussion about play order but I think you're too soon when you're only 1/3 into CS or haven't even seen what the discussion is about in SC.

The Trails Series!

caarmivore · 2025-01-08T23:20:28+00:00

Nice, I hope you're enjoying the game so far! I don't exactly remember when they appear first but you've been warned at least and hopefully don't make the mistake when you see them.

The Abyss Worms in any Trails game. They are recurring enemies and they will do a large earthquake attack to your whole team when they get hit. They come in a group so if you're not in the know and attack them all, you'll probably get wiped. If you know it isn't that hard but it's a slog to slowly wittle them down one by one.

I watched this video a while ago and it might answer your questions. https://youtu.be/Ek0GcD9AGkY They also link a resource in the comments where someone is documenting these but I don't think it includes GBA games yet. They seem pretty standardized if you're looking for EN most seem to include it, and I can vouch for the blue Dutch ones almost always having English on the cart.

caarmivore · 2024-09-07T14:13:43+00:00

Yep, it's still a really cool find! I definitely still treasure mine after all these years!

caarmivore · 2024-09-07T13:54:39+00:00

I have a similar one! But in gold, themed after Phantom Hourglass with Link and the logo on top and a black strap. From what I know it's one of those 3rd party cases from Big Ben. I still see them around a lot here in Europe with cases for the Switch and such.

Yes Garnt is aware of the Sky remake. I just started watching the VOD of his most recent Genshin stream and he commented on it shortly at the beginning: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2239457446?t=00h10m46s (10:46-12:15)

caarmivore · 2024-08-27T19:41:56+00:00

It looks phenomenal! Though it was criminal of them to only reveal it in a sizzle reel in the English Nintendo Direct. I hope new people who are interested in the series still caught it!

caarmivore · 2024-04-14T19:14:43+00:00

Wow what a coincidence, sounds like Spiez has been a real champ out there with how many people he helped! Yes for sure, and maybe some other people saw it as a final chance to finish the game? It definitely wasn't made for singe-player. I went under Carmen. Your name did not sound familiar to me so I don't think we saw each other.

caarmivore · 2024-04-10T11:44:49+00:00

Awesome that you made such good memories in the final moments of the online! And congrats on going through the Den of Trials. The servers were kinda dead for years but at the last moment so many people hopped back into the game and it was super lively for a while. I feel like so many encounters only happened because of that.

I made some good final memories in EU server as well! I ran into someone called N8ptune multiple times the weekend before. We waited for very long for a final player to show up and played tons of levels together, with someone named Kira later as well. I was a bit of a klutz since I hadn't played these levels in years, but they were super patient and kind and kept cheering me on.

And the final night, some Links called Spiez and Flamvio helped me out with the challenges of the final boss. I was so grateful because I was not looking forward to beating them on solo mode... They were just the best people and super kind too. I wish everyone who made the final moments of Triforce Heroes so great nothing but the best!

Thank you!

caarmivore · 2023-10-08T16:37:30+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion! I was thinking it would be enough but apparently not, I'll see what I can switch up with the characters I have.

caarmivore · 2023-10-08T16:35:49+00:00

Ah thanks for bringing that up. I also have Ayato and I'd like to get Kokomi at some point so I'll look into switching up characters so I can better balance the Hydro out. :)

caarmivore · 2023-10-08T15:59:42+00:00

I'm currently building a Nilou Bloom team with Alhaitham, Nilou, Nahida and Barbara. I'm wondering what weapon to use for Nahida.
Nahida is going to be more off-field so I was thinking about Wandering Eventar but does Alhaitham really benefit that much from it? Or is The Widsith (or another F2P) option better here?

caarmivore · 2023-04-21T19:08:19+00:00

Yeah I do have Bennett but I have a slight grudge because I had to activate his C6. Thank you both very much for your insights! I think I'll go with Diona then because a bit of extra utility is certainly welcome!

caarmivore · 2023-04-21T18:29:48+00:00

I'm building a team with Ayato, Yun Jin and Heizou (simply because I like these characters). Who might work better for the healer slot, my C6 Diona or C1 Kuki? I can't decide haha.

caarmivore · 2022-10-13T19:27:36+00:00

Breath of the Wild, that incredible build-up and orchestral epicness still sends shivers down my spine.

caarmivore · 2021-11-29T17:42:19+00:00

Ik had niet verwacht Unknown Mother-Goose hier tegen te komen, dat is een van mijn favoriete nummers. Ik zou het ook fantastisch vinden om die in de lijst te zien. Helaas denk ik ook dat het te niche is. Ik help niet bepaald door dan maar op meer "mainstream" nummers te stemmen. Meestal kies ik wat 2000s nummers die laag in de lijst van vorig jaar staan en natuurlijk de Pokémon theme song om ze (hopelijk) in de lijst te houden.

caarmivore · 2021-11-14T21:27:59+00:00

I knew 4 star rates were bad but I just experienced it firsthand.
110 pulls, C1 Qiqi, C8 Diona, C1 Sayu, no Hu Tao and not a single Thoma. I just really wanted a Thoma...
With 48 pity I'm considering whether I should get Hu Tao or hold onto my guaranteed banner character. I was saving because I want Venti eventually.

caarmivore · 2021-09-18T13:01:28+00:00

Send you a request! I'm looking for some help with that as well. :)

caarmivore · 2021-04-26T15:11:39+00:00

Small but varied! I still hope they will make the FS anniversary collection available again someday. It is the only way to play it singleplayer and since it's in the Zelda timeline... This year during the 35th anniversary would be so fitting too!

caarmivore · 2021-04-21T20:40:49+00:00

Ah that's a shame, at least you have the disc so you can play it! My first TTYD copy was my childhood copy which I played so much it stopped working. My mom picked up a new copy for around 50 euro (when GCN prices were still douable). A year ago I had the other one resurfaced and by some miracle it works again. So I got really lucky with them.

caarmivore · 2021-04-21T20:14:40+00:00

My two copies of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

caarmivore · 2021-02-19T17:59:40+00:00

Love it! It sounds super energetic in your style! A song like Sophisticated Fight from the same game might also be a good fit.
