Finished!
Not Islington's best, but still a good book and contender for my favorite I've read this year. Brings that mystery, heartache and most horrible kind of torturous source of economic and/or political power one would expect from his stories
Can't wait for the next book

Cant believe Joshua would say this

Xenoblade really just stole everything from Trails smh

I dont wanna read this book anymore

I'm just a realist

Not vibing with Third so far, but I made this

Finished with the second game. It was okay, first was maybe a bit better

That being said, Tita and Agate stuff in ch5 was genuinely very good

Onwards to the third

Going through chapter 3

Game continues to be fine, even pretyt good at times. I do have this feeling though that when I eventually finish playing them, they wont leave same impact as some other big JRPG series have
Feel free to prove me wrong game

First 12 chapters are excellent. This book manages to do something I've never seen before in a story and I love it

Part of me is a bit worried if anyone can keep track of all that's going on in the story, but Islington did great job with complexities in Licanius already, it's probably gonna be fine

Finished chapter 1

I'm starting to get into the groove with these games finally. I didn't expect it, but Agate has become one of my favorite characters, man is toxicly wholesome. Favorite however is Kloe, I really liked that scene she had with Estelle on the stage in the school

I lied, I had nothing else to do so I played the second one for couple hours, currently in the woods with Anelace trying to figure out what the heck is going on

Finished!

Pretty good game, with very interesting ending. Probably wont jump into the sequel immediately, don't want to have a story driven rpg under way when Strength of the few drops

Will definitely continue tho

There is a lot of scenes that, after the main topic has been processed, add additional couple dozen lines where Estelle and Josh tease each other about having crushes on people etc. It's realistic for you ~16 year olds, but get quite repetitive at this point, it feels like fluff in already long game

Been playing a ton of this game over the last few days.
Generally I enjoy it, gameplay systems are simple but fun and have good amount of variety in almost every encounter. Story is moving slowly and that's okay, but I feel the dialogue revolves around few same topics way too much

I have about 12h of play time now, so far its been fun. Reminds me old final fantasies with some Tales of vibes added on top
People saying it's a slow burn start were not wrong
