If this Tita is Sky Tita, I guess we'll know who'll be taking over the orbal factory duties now that George is presumably on his trip across the continent. It'll be interesting to see her as a 16-year old. Who wants to bet Tita's mom sent her abroad in an attempt to get her away from Agate?  If Randy is Randy from the Crossbell games, that'd probably get the Japanese fanbase excited, though he's unlikely to ring much of a bell. Not sure what they'll do with Towa. I'd be annoyed if she was just the same old same old questgiver she was in Steel 1. There is potential if she and Rean work together as equals now instead of kohai and tiny-senpai.

Any guesses for how they're gonna resolve Rean's relationship path of choice in CS3, on a scale from "ignored" to "the story will be entirely different depending on who you picked"? I hope they might give you a list and allow you to pick of who you went with in CS2 and add a couple of throwaway lines for it, but I'm kinda also expecting them to actually define a canon relationship for Rean with Alisa too.

I assume they'll handle it the same way they did in CS2. There are some special dialogue scenes which slot in whoever you chose.

Super Jay Mann posted:Tita as a student in a military academy in a foreign country seems like a bit of a stretch. Being a teacher on the other hand... I think the idea of a 16-year old foreigner with no military background teaching class to students older than her at a military academy is even more of a stretch, childhood genius or not. Tita isn't even particularly skilled at explaining difficult stuff. She usually just lets loose with a waterfall of technobabble that makes Estelle and Agate run for the hills.  Compared to that, Tita as a foreign exchange student would be semi-believable even though it'd make a lot more sense if she interned at the Roer Institute instead. (though I suspect her granddad wasn't gonna let her anywhere near Schmidt) Erpy fucked around with this message at 17:18 on Mar 22, 2017 |

She could be like George, she joined the academy because the engineering classes are top of the line, even if they naturally focus on military tech.

Osborne specifically asked the Russel family if their daughter wanted to attend his new school as a sign of respect for their distinguished family and the ZCF. But oh heavens, something ~bad~ suddenly occurs in the school, with Tita in the center of it. His Excellency's warm hand was callously slapped away as Tita is revealed to have been a spy for Liberl, meant to sabotage the school, the new pride of Erebonia! Surely such behavior cannot go without some form of... reprimand.

The only way a Sara/Rean relationship should go is that Sara laughs at him and pats him on the head and Rean has a sudden, crippling and horrified realization of what he's been doing for the past 20 years.

It's certainly going to be interesting to see what happens, since Estelle and Lloyd are allies and Rean's technically their enemy.

Any fight between Rean and Estelle is going to be some minor misunderstanding thing. I mean, we already know that Rean turned down people pleading for him to join the army because he didn't really want to be doing the whole Ashen Chevalier schtick much, and took a teaching job at Thors' esoteric secondary branch for foreign student, dropouts and eccentrics instead. Complete with someone seemingly incredibly pro-Crossbell on his team (plus Tita and Randy at the school too).

The final boss of CS3 is going to be Super Saiyan Osborne in his giant robot while you pilot Valimar Thors which is a giant combiner piloted by all of Class VII created out of the old school building.

Well about Tita showing up, I do have one idea. (light CS2 End game spoilers) I imagine she might be at Thors because of the trip George took to Zeiss with Angelica. I can kind of see George really hitting it off with Professor Russel, and that might have led to him mentioning learning at Thors, and one thing might have led to another and now Tita is enrolled in Thors.

Phobophilia posted:im still halfway through sc, but in general, i really like the worldbuilding and writing of the series the sky games are the first entries so there isn't any background stuff to know about the setting that isn't in-game, any new information in a rundown of the world would probably just be stuff from future games. if you have any specific questions i can field them though probaby i am a nerd and am willing to explain how the games tie together and what they're all about though. So first off, Trails in the Sky is actually Legend of Heroes VI, but the previous five games are unrelated and the connected games are everything after Sky, marked by having Trails/Kiseki in their name. Anyways, with that out of the way: --- Basically, all seven (to-date) Trails games take place on the same continent, with the story focusing on a specific country and cast for two or three games story arcs that are somewhat self-contained. The arcs so far are: Liberl (Trails FC/SC and the upcoming Sky 3rd): The ones you are playing, and are thus familiar with. The main point of interest in that case is that SC has a pretty definitive end, and then 3rd takes place a year later and changes perspective to follow everyone's idol Kevin, giving an in-depth look at his character, while also acting as an extended epilogue to FC/SC and doing a bunch of worldbuilding/groundwork for future games. Crossbell (Zero no Kiseki and Ao no Kiseki): Unofficially Trails to Zero and Trails to Azure. Taking place a year after 3rd, the duology follows a squad of rookie police officers in Crossbell, which you might remember got mentioned in Chapter 3 of SC. we don't know if they're going to be localized, but there's a translation patch being worked on. Erebonia (Cold Steel I/II and the upcoming (in Japan) III): Follows a group of military academy students in Erebonia. I/II take place more or less concurrently to Crossbell, showing the Erebonian perspective to the events that transpire.

I was dumping on Celceta last week but I think it just starts slower than I would like because once you've got 4+ characters and I realized I could fast forward all the cutscenes I've been enjoying it a lot more. I think mainly I just dont like using the spear guy or swimming combat and the first like 3 hours of this game is nothing but that! So I was unduly bummed. But now that I've got a growing party and a ton of weapons getting buffed and boosted with minerals and cool accessories and stuff its reminding me why I originally liked this game a lot!
