lolI'm playing Tokyo Xanadu and it's hilarious how many times this happened in Chapter 1. I hope NISA can work around that in CS3.

And they have to keep the Japanese honorifics intact, they are strictly necessary to grasp the original meaning of the text, after all.
That's true, to some extent, but it's bordering on ridiculous in Sen IV. Sen III , too, started way too many dialogues with variations of "How many months has it been?".

I'll be surprised if they don't cut dubbed lines as they're used to doing.all the rean-kyokan's, truly a contemporary masterpiece
in all seriousness i think the biggest thing nisa can do to turn me in a believer is show proof they are going to add dubbed lines, 3 and 4 have some really jarring choices regarding this which cheapens a big lore dump
More dubbed lines would likely also depend on Falcom's cooperation. I wouldn't hold my breath.all the rean-kyokan's, truly a contemporary masterpiece

I don't see NISA of all people spending a dime on the PC port unless they feel it's absolutely necessary.It'll probably be like CS1 and CS2 where additional dubbed lines are implemented in a PC port but not the original since Falcom's required to help with that.
I went to a good high school.
I freaking hate Musse Egret as a character. She's the only one I actively dislike in CS3. Utterly pointless character that hurts the setting. I hate how she consistently tries to hit on Rean, what's with 16 year old girl flirting with instructor? And her arc just got worse in CS4.
She's literally the mastermind that rivals Osborne. The little girl plays 4D chess with the man who plays Ouroboros like a fiddle. It's big slap to the face to Osborne, and to all the other characters. But I can cope with that. The worst part is, this great strategy mind just gives up her position as the leader of an army to join the team. Yeah, her big brain is not as useful as her rifle. What the fuck? And she literally joins the party cuz she needs a bit of Rean.
What a fucking trainwreck of a character, absolute garbage writing. She'd do fine in Fire Emblem Fates.
Does that mean we're getting a bridge game/side game?
Not to comment on the execution in CS3 specifically since I haven't played it, but older teenage girls falling for their hot, younger male teachers isn't exactly uncommon in real life. I've heard many discussions in my high school days about "isn't so and so the sexiest man in the school building". Teenagers are horny, that's just how it is.
It's how the teacher reacts to the situation, and how the student acts on their horniness, that can be potentially problematic.
Ive got the news reports from my high school to show it...I saw this happen many times when I was in highschool. I'm also pretty damn sure (as was everyone) that at least one of the girls had an affair with the teacher.
lol how come you guys are so quick? I started playing as soon as the game unlock and still at part 3 of ch.1.
Ch.1 actually has some decent challenge. Enemy HP is high, and they love to inflict nasty aliments.
Seems like you are doing what I did. Guess I just couldn't find enough time to play.Hmm, I'm playing on Normal, pressing start to skip all the battle animations and using a guide for the side stuff to avoid spending too much time looking around. Oh and I don't talk to every single NPC in a Kiseki game (even though it's part of the series' charm). Not the usual best practices to follow for tackling this series... I don't want to spend the next 2 months dedicated to Sen 4 only.
lol I thought you were playing the Asia version, which came out not too long ago. You sir has been taking your time.I don't know, it took me around 50h to complete part one.
As Japanese is very difficult for me (year two, motivated and helped by tooling but that is far from sufficient), I need a lot of time to translate the story (even though I made progress since I started with Sen 3 and continued with zero, I still find the text more difficult in sen than in zero for some reason), but I also tend to skip a lot of minor npc dialogue (which is a shame, because the new students from sen3 were fun to read, and I find the situation in Sen IV rather well depicted). I also do less quartz optimization than usual. Maybe the text I skipped contained the touching character moments I'm missing so far? Maybe skipping that text explains why I went faster than you? Or maybe you just have very little time for video games?
(50 hours over 4 months is not a lot for me, but smash happened, and also playing in Japanese is exhausting... Kiseki curse, what did you do to me?)
(Agreed about the ailments, I met a lvl 100 boss that went a bit overboard with vanish, freeze and poison. Ouch)
I'd play through the first two Cold Steel games first and then hopefully a better script for Zero will be out.So I played through all of the Sky games last year and absolutely adored them. I'm now stuck in a dilemma though, so if you more experienced folk could advise I'd hugely appreciate it.
I have access to both Zero and Azure with the most available English patch, and started Zero. The current script is just about bearable, and I've heard Azure is much better. However I was wondering if a better option would be to play the two currently available Cold Steel games first, then go back and play through Zero and Azure with the hopes the fan patch would be out for Zero?
The problem there might be that going from a (hopefully) rigorous fan translation for Zero then to Azure might be a little jarring, and it might be better to have Cold Steel emotionally fresh for 3.
I'd super appreciate any suggestions!
The end of CS2 is a perfectly fine stopping point to wait for either the fan translations to be finished, or a hypothetical localisation miracle of the Crossbell duology. Having replayed CS1 and 2 when the pc ports came out, there's certainly Crossbell stuff referenced, but you don't have worry about major spoilers or anything (Although I hear that you shouldn't read endgame newspapers).So I played through all of the Sky games last year and absolutely adored them.

they're striving for it but to be fair the larger connections will be more from Ao than Zero which does not do the cliffhanger like FC and CS1 did.
There is a Chinese port that Falcom never backported like they did with Zero which makes it very hard to get access to featuring SecuROM DRM. There might be plans of working on it but i think a good version will have to wait until Geofront moves onto it and JoseJL starts working on that, he's doing big work on Zero still.I've been itching to play Zero and Ao and it got me thinking, how is Ao's situation on PC? Does it have an accessible version like Zero?
The Korean modding community published mods to change the script into Japanese and Korean, which include DRM-free executables, years ago. DRM will hardly pose the challenge the volume of the game will.There is a Chinese port that Falcom never backported like they did with Zero which makes it very hard to get access to featuring SecuROM DRM.
I'm playing through the Flame edited translation of Ao at the moment, it's a bit spotty in parts but it's more than playable.I've been itching to play Zero and Ao and it got me thinking, how is Ao's situation on PC? Does it have an accessible version like Zero?
I think the main concern is being able to legally purchase the game in order to mod it. Is that still possible?The Korean modding community published mods to change the script into Japanese and Korean, which include DRM-free executables, years ago.

Yeah, that's my main concern.I think the main concern is being able to legally purchase the game in order to mod it. Is that still possible?
I remember the company involved tried to get both Zero and Ao published on Steam but were apparently blocked.
