Briar King Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 I find all of them an eye soar in this series for some reason. Millium’s outfits drove me crazy. Hopefully I will be able to take the offending thing off that beautiful purple hair. It’s gotta go lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briar King Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 It throws me off big time lol So I bought a shining Pom bait for $100 and the next jumped to 10K. I bought that one also just to see how much the next would cost but it was last one. Just doing some dialogue rounds and bonding events before my eye appointment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weltall Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 (edited) The real answer for why there are so many half-spoken conversations is because that's how it is in the Japanese version too and when the games are localized the code is already set up for voiced lines to be inserted in those spots and not others. Given that voice acting isn't cheap (and Falcom can get big names to do their characters) plus Falcom being a small company and you have your answer for why they don't do full voice acting. When their games do have it, it's in the form of in-house ports where they didn't need to spend much money on anything else (Oath in Felghana PSP) or much more commonly because they were partnering with another company that paid for the studio time and actors (the Evolution games). 1 hour ago, aneonfoxtribute said: Its because it switched to NISA. Xseed actually voiced a lot more cutscenes than were voiced in the Japanese versions of 1 and 2 and they voiced whole scenes when they did. But only in the PC ports (which got added to the PS4 ones as well by extension) and not the original games for PS3/Vita. Which is analogous to Falcom being able to add more voice acting to the Oath port. They'd already done all the hard work, had a good idea how it would sell and could afford to spend a bunch of money on extra voicework and do the insertions themselves. Maybe if NISA did one port at a time they could do likewise but instead they appear to prefer simultaneous Switch and PC ports. Though they have gone back and done very nice things in their ports (look at adding a co-op mode to Ys VIII) so it's not like the ports are entirely straight jobs.

I don’t remember any half and half’s in 1. It was either or. 2 had a section where everyone was talking but one person was text only which felt off as hell. Here in 3 though yeah it’s very common with the half convos. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh right btw, Jingo is also a character in the Crossbell games. Her mom runs a black market place in Crossbell and you buy things from her all the time, and Jingo is manning the store very often. It really explains why Jingo is so weird. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weltall Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 (edited) And by 'weird' we mean that she wants to try shooting rainclouds to see if that will make them go away. She also doesn't approve of genius musicians attempting to use her store's roof as an impromptu venue.

Briar King Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) Phew man I’m getting some flashbacks of the long CS3 start after getting back from my field study. It’s taking hours chipping away at all this. I want to get in Keep asap so I can fight awhile and it’s looking like that won’t happen till tomorrow. well I guess I kinda got my fix. CS3 ch 2 bonding stuff im in Keep with Laura but I don’t think it will be for very long at all. Good place to end for the night.

Briar King Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 I’m not what the problem is on this site with editing once you do a spoiler tag. I can never get it to go below the box once it’s there..maybe because I’m on a phone instead of pc? Anyway I was going to add to that last to see if it was just me but it feels like with CS3 the “in between” stuff takes quite a bit more time than 1&2. It’s cool when I have the time for it but I frequently don’t so it can wind up stretching out 2-3 days IRL before I’m back to fighting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briar King Posted March 15, 2021 Report Share Posted March 15, 2021 I’m at 61 hrs. Next field study sounds interesting.

Weltall Posted March 15, 2021 Report Share Posted March 15, 2021 Geofront just released the 1.1 patch for Trails from Zero, which includes a whole bunch of edits following the work on Azure and the official localization of CS4 (so all the terms now match for example), graphics improvements and all sorts of behind the scenes stuff intended to make it an even better experience. Sounds like Azure is probably not going to release this month, but April is looking pretty good. 2 hours ago, Briar King said: I’m at 61 hrs. Next field study sounds interesting.

Eluvianii he/him Posted March 16, 2021 Report Share Posted March 16, 2021 I'm not sure I agree with Class VII collectively deciding... CS1 Chapter 4 Spoiler ...that Rean was at fault during his discussion with Elise at the Academy. Sure, Rean was not the most sensitive guy here, but Elise just kept him guessing and getting mad he didn't know exactly what she was talking about and a that he kept misunderstanding her and her family's feelings. I say they're both equally at fault here and that this is just a typical "Siblings are bad at communication" situation. (I'm aware she doesn't exactly see him as a brother but to me in this scene she does act like a sister on some level) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently it's rude to straight up tell people something that maybe insulting/disrespectful/insinuates that they are messing up, so you indirectly dance around the issue? But yes, it does feel weird. To me, the most bizzare part wasn't how Elise handled it, but was that Class VII was eavesdropping on the conversation (WTH guys!), and then they're acting all judgmental. ... What? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, that's about the worst part here. My point with Elise was that she didn't handle it perfectly either but the entire class still ganged up on Rean like he was the only one making mistakes. But yes, for some reason, eavesdropping is something accepted within the group. Sometimes it's like they know it will happen, so they simply decide to have private conversations with the group already present. Given that, I'm just starting to take these things for granted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briar King Posted March 16, 2021 Report Share Posted March 16, 2021 I got a lonnnnng time till ch 3. I’m still home at start of 2 making the rounds. I’m quite pissed off to.. Have been getting blown away at cards by a certain radio person. I have no opening hand and they got the hammer every time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briar King Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 Victory. Finally! That took way to much of my time the past 2 days sadly. I just had to experiment with my deck heavily for the 1st time of the game but you really do need luck with opening hand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aneonfoxtribute Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 Yeah Vantage Masters is, like, a legit competitive card game like Magic or Runeterra. It's very easy comparatively and has a lot less options, but it's legit. until you get the knight and can just face tank literally everything in the game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briar King Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 I like it. Soooo much better then that dumb as rust Blade which I didn’t care if I won or lost.

I’m on the save screen and ready to continue on in the AM when I wake up to head off to Crossbell for 2nd field study. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aneonfoxtribute Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 So fun fact that you might not know going into this second chapter. Spoiler Crossbell is the setting of the Crossbell games. Absolutely crazy, I know. You're welcome for the information 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
