@KratosMD It's definitely my favourite JRPG on PS3 thus-far and is my 5th favourite JRPG of all-time. The only JRPG's I like more are Star Ocean 2, Star Ocean 3, Rogue Galaxy, and Final Fantasy VII. The original Xenoblade Chronicles is a close 6th! ^_^

@KratosMD Actually once you reach the end of chapter 2 you'll start encountering some new dungeons, though to be fair you can access some of them much earlier to earn bonus AP to ensure that you reach that oh-so-coveted A0 Student Rank!

On the last chapter now and some of the twists and surprises were absolutely jaw-dropping! Falcom have a brilliant knack for turning out crazy twists that you never see coming yet make sense when all is revealed!! There is something which is confusing me though in this last chapter, its spoilery so maybe @Reanfan7 can answer my question: Why is everyone in Class VII saying goodbye? I thought the students were only in year 1? I know they'll need to break up for summer holidays but it sounds like everyone is leaving for good? Did I miss something?

@KratosMD Ya it's kinda weird how Class VII keep proclaiming their neutrality yet it's clear as day their only fighting the Noble Alliance, would have made more sense if they had to fight the Imperial Army or something.
My personal favorite missions were the recruiting the students, felt great getting the band back together again and was a great way of getting the player interesting in all these side characters stories

@Hego Most of them are indeed transferring, though I hear Yusis, Alisa, Laura, and Millium will return during the second year. There will also be eight new classmates in Class VII year II according to Falcom! Also, while not returning classmates, Fie, Machias, Emma, Gaius, and Eliott will be playable party members and will play a pivotal role in the third game alongside several characters from the Trails in The Sky series.

@Hego No problem! Also the end of chapter 3 actually brought a tear to my eye. The irony of it all was gutwrenching too. I won't spoil anything for @KratosMD, but be prepared for some serious feels!

@KratosMD I read your last post via email thanks to me watching this thread, however it appears to have disappeared at some point since you posted the message.

I've started Trails in the Sky SC on the Vita, I got around a quarter of the way through but I switched memories cards and didn't bother to back-up my save. Trying to power through up to that point. Going back to Trails in the Sky (a PSP game) really makes me miss some of the conveniences available in Cold Steel, particularly the ability to speed through dialogue, skip arts animations, and even the basic things like accessing the menu is quicker on Cold Steel. Still Sky is a great game and has arguably the better story I'd say based on the first game alone

@KratosMD Like Cold Steel, SC takes off immediately from the end of the first game so you really need to play or watch a play-through of the first game to get the full experience :/ still can't believe they took it off PSN, it makes no sense!

@KratosMD You can buy The 3rd on the Steam page in Europe too, it's available on my Steam client at least

@KratosMD @Hego Btw I recently downloaded the Trails in The Sky Dualogy on PSTV and Phantom Thief Blueblanc, and Prince Olivert are in the game. It shows the journey that Prince Olivert had in Liberl before the start of the first Trails of Cold Steel title.

@KratosMD You summed it up perfectly before when you said that basically Trails 1 and 2 were two halves of the same game and I completely agree. You simply cannot fully appreciate one without the other, it would be like only reading one half of a thriller I'm pretty sure your spot on with your prediction too about the 3rd came, it really does look like Rean will be forming a new army, Class VII will probably play cameo roles throughout I'd imagine. Not sure how I feel about that though, I've grown very attached to those characters (part from Machias and Justin )

@KratosMD I have high hopes for Tokyo Xanadu. Just don't know whether to get the vita version or the enhanced PS4 version which comes later in the year with added story- Tokyo Xanadu EX+.

I'm new to Trails of Cold Steel having picked it up 1&2 in the recent sale. How long does the main campaign take to beat?
Also is it fine to just skip Trails in the Sky as I assume those aren't connected?

@KratosMD Thanks for your detailed response! I love the Vita & Trails has always been one of those franchises that creep up when people are discussing the best vita games so it's always been on my radar. Finally pulled the trigger with the sale.

Going on holiday soon so I've been thinking off taking the vita with me. Might start the first game while I'm away.
