As a fan of JRPGs but doesn't have the time to play everyone that catches my eye - your channel is god sent mate 👍🏿
I second this!!
"As Joshua was about to oblige, they're interrupted by Cosette."
Audience: GODDAMNIT!!!
Thanks for another great recap Oni!
Just a little correction regarding 35:45, Joshua was in Weissmann's control but Kevin put a trap on the stigma that would break it if Joshua was ordered to kill Estelle, which they gambled would happen based on Weissmann's ego.
Trails in the Sky SC is one of- if not my favorite Trails entry in the franchise, rivaling Trails into Azure and Trails of Cold Steel IV. This recap was great- as per usual with the other recaps.
The amount of love and passion that is put into the franchise as a whole is phenomenal and it truly shines in entries like Sky SC. Upon my first playthrough, it took my for a emotional rollercoaster, something very few games can do. Everything from the artstyle, to the story, to the MUSIC, everything is so beautifully crafted in Trails in the Sky SC.
I still don't get the love for SC. It felt like a retread of FC using most of the same locations, but without that feeling of wonder and adventure of seeing em for the first time in FC. There's tons of pointless busywork that destroys the pacing that should've been set to high gear by the brilliant ending of FC (which was also a slow game but it needed to be, it ramped up the further you got in til the explosive finale). That said SC shows you the Liber Ark which is easily the best part of the game (the lore of Trails is the most interesting storywise imo), plus you get to see a lot more of Ouroboros. I still think FC and 3rd are better though. FC for being the interesting adventure and 3rd for being the best lore+gameplay combo.
@@Walamonga1313 SC is FC but better in nearly every conceivable aspect. It takes the lovely foundation that FC built and expanded upon it tenfold. It takes characters like Agate and Loewe and adds more depth to them as whole, and introduces unique and outright interesting new characters like Renne, Walter, the other Enforcers and Anguis, Kevin, etc.
While I love FC for what it established and The 3rd for what it expanded upon, they can never truly capture what SC did for the franchise in general. The 3rd at the time of me experiencing it closely rivaled SC for my favorite of the Liberl Arc, but The 3rd had a few flaws I wasn't particularly fond of.
It's ironic, because you claim SC was a "retread' of FC, but The 3rd is quite literally the exact same, so much so that the entire 50-60+ hours experience is built on the concept of going through all the established places and plot points of FC and SC. Making your complaint about SC seem more shallow since you're not holding every entry to those same standards, but instead having a clear bias.
Nonetheless, I love every entry in the franchise, it's just some I feel are better either on a emotional or particularly on a objective level. The 3rd and SC for a while I interchangeably consider my favorites of the Liberl Arc, but decided based off of certain factors that SC was the one I favor more.
@@thequincy_ Well that's your opinion and it is clearly wrong.
@@Walamonga1313 FC was way too slow paced, with too much filler IMO. Good thing videos like these exist.
I'M FLOORED. Decided to FINALLY dive into more of the series after playing fc a decade ago and then sc on release--and I obviously wanted a quick recap before playing the 3rd! Can't believe you JUST uploaded this a couple weeks ago! Perfect timing, thank you for outlining the events of the first two games so eloquently that I felt a rush of nostalgia and adoration for the cast. I'm so ready for the next game now!! 💥🔥
This will be very useful before playing Zero next month
Banger game right here
It's a good refresher,
since we are playing Trails From Zero and soon Trails To Azure official Western release by NISA 😁
Never played this but I remember it on my radar, glad to see you cover it
Been waitong for this after you did the FC one, Thanks a ton for making this 😄
Your review of the first Trails in the Sky game is what got me into the series. There is SO MUCH DIALOG but they are also such good games.
That's what I'm here for. I've been itching to play a jrpg that's never ending. Whenever you play a really good jrpg this first you think after it's over is "35-70hrs isn't long enough" in working my way through all of the games hopefully this isn't a bad inve😢 because buying them all is gonna be triple digit amount of money not including the new SD card I'll need
@rushpatriot2866 How far have you come in the series so far? I finished the sky trilogy last year between January and April. After this long break I just started the Crosbell ark.
Nooooooo waaaaayyy! You mad lad, you actually did it! I've been meaning to catch up to your recaptations and now you drop on me this bomb. Good work as always!
working my way through Trails of Cold Steel 4 now (I've played through the previous games in succession) this and the last recap you made of this series was a nice reminder :D
Watching these before playing Trails of Cold Steel 3 to at least get a better understanding of the story. Love this series so far!
Thanks for the great Recap! Helped me to remember all the facts. Played Cold Steel Series and now Zero and it helps to get the whole picture again.
Incredible job as always! Thank you for taking the time to make this. Really looking forward to your Recapitation of the third chapter.
YES!!! so long have I waited for this, THANK YOU ! ! !
Perfect for some1 who doesn't have a p.c.i have a switch and ps4 so im glad I can see where it all started.hoping one day for a switch port
Just get a steam deck bro
Those dolls come back into play in one of the games were getting next year
Any possibility of doing recapitation of the Xenoblade games?
It came, it actually came! Thanks Oni!
thank you! great help before diving into Sky 3 soon
The wait for the recap was much shorter than the wait for SoonChapter(tm) itself.
Ty for uploading this since I have this on Vita but want to go straight to Zero Crossbell Arc. So now I can at least understand what happens in the SC and TC. Thank you 💖💕
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS!!!! I only have time to play one Legend of Heroes per year or per 2y... So these Recaps are fundamental!! Thank you again
This is, without hyperbole, on of the best JRPG stories put to pen. With how many great character moments and excellent reveals that are dispersed throughout the game, its hard not to try to evangelize it to whoever will listen. The only issue with it is that, to experience it properly, you need to play an entire other game before it.
right? the ending was basic jrpg free will bs but the overall story was so tight compared to most other jrpgs
@@notme-ji5uo Every story beat is connected in an astoundingly cohesive web. Despite the length of the script, there are no wasted words.
Ys series when? 😊
Maybe in a few years when he catches up with Trails?
Bless your soul. It’s so hard for me to keep up with all the trails lore given time constraints
@5:50 "You're done iiiiiiiiiin by THE,
Time it's hit you,
Your Last Surprise.
OooooooOooOoo..."
Just finished the game on stream today. I'm now a fan of the trails series. I started with cold steel but felt so lost. Now I know what to expect and so much makes sense to me now.
Here we go, makes my day!
After this game I realized that I LOVE the trails series and proceeded to play TC, cross bell arc and erebonia arc :)
Why do I keep on missing these?
I started with Zero so this is a great recap. Thanks for the vid
That's what I'm about to do
I enjoyed this one quite a bit. The previous game set the stage for this continuation and this entry mostly took advantage of the opportunity. I have some criticisms, of course, as no game is perfect, but this game did a great job concluding the story of Estelle and Joshua. This also marked the last one I would play because I had very little investment in the story of Kevin, so I apathetically passed the third chapter. Still, I watched that RECAPitation only an hour ago, going backwards through the backlog.
I'll rendezvous with you on the next battlefield.
Yey! Another recap of a good game! Thank you!
FFXIV Heavensward when? Pleaaaaaase?
Would be cool to see one about: Ephemeral Fantasia for PS2
ty
I think it's in reverse. The game was created for PSP and then ported to PC. I'm pretty sure that's the order XD
Nope. The Trails in the Sky games did get their PC version a year before their PSP one.
Changed my mind at least the story got more interesting from where I was in second chapter. Im playing on easy mode just to go thru the story and it is still taking a long ass time.
Do you have a plan to make a summary for crossbell (Zero and azure) & Coldsteel arc?
What is that humming noise in the bg going off?
Its probably because I'm both in my 30s and watching the story in a concensed matter instead of the full experience, but so far this just screams young adult bargain bin fiction unfortunately.
I'm trying to catch on the lore since I just started the franchise on Cold Steel 1, but so far I'm not seeing what's so good about the prequels, just another story of an unlikely couple rising through the ranks of an organization of a country with a hidden agenda linked to an ancient, forgotten religion. Add mechas, a bunch of deus ex machina moments where no one likeable dies, an edgy background to half the characters and a bunch of treasons and we got light Game of Thrones. Which I mean isn't bad, but it just describes 9/10 JRPGs and fantasy animes. At least I'm enjoying Cold Steel so far, again very tropey but I guess the execution is fun, plus the franchise's soundtrack is phenomenal. But whenever I see people call this or that JRPG one of the best stories in the world I just wonder if they've actually ever opened a book since highschool lol.
Next time "The Third"
and gosh i saw the lore of that salt kevin uses, a single touch of it will turn you in to a salt and the source is somewhat big
After this, can you do a recap of Nights Of Azure please? I know it's been a long time, but if there's a Gust game or Koei Tecmo game that needs a recap, I bet Ar Tonelico might end up being the first Gust game that will end up getting a recap.
This game is a masterpiece and one of my favorite jrpgs of all time. And you're uploading Trails game summaries now so does that mean...are you playing through the series bro??
Yes, though in order
@@OniBlackMage hell yeah. You're in for such a treat. I'm playing in order as well and about to finish Cold Steel 4. Wow...is all I can say. The payoff for playing these in order is HUUUUUGE
KAREN LOL
