Comment on Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter adds Switch 2 version; ‘Prologue’ demo now available for PS5, Switch, and PC

I started the Trails series because of the remake announcement a few months ago. Currently at Trails to Azure, I may revisit this remake once I reach the end of this long journey.

Very excited to see how they animate the end of this game, and I really look forward to the 2nd chapter. I also really look forward to the soundtrack for one track in particular towards the end.

I am also tempted to just revisit this remake at release, but hngh, will be better once the story is a bit less fresh in my mind.

Are you playing them in chronological order? Or did you start with the Crossbell duology?

  Playing in release order. Sky trilogy and then Crossbell duology currently, and then Cold Steel it shall be.

How well they reproduce some of those key drama stings is definitely key to the game’s rating imo.

A lot of game directors don’t quite appreciate just how short scenes like FF7’s death of Aeris are; or what made them compelling even with poor visuals on a struggling console. I’m a little bit worried some of these scenes will get over-acted, and leave players kind of “done with the scene” before they’ve wrapped up. Trails has way too much dialogue overall, but it ends up working well when it gives you a series of huge “WHAM” moments, and the credits are rolling before you’ve fully parsed it.

But now that I think about it, they could likely wind down some of Weissman’s speech during his reveal.
