The fact they had to write dialogue for all 500+ empty chests in the game is truly commendable

I don't know where should I start. If I need to describe the second chapter in one word it would be "impossible". One word is not enough to describe the emotions I felt while playing the second chapter for The legends of Heroes: Trails in the Sky series. The first chapter already had me hooked but the second line was definitely the KO I needed. Compared to the first chapter the combat is improved tremendously, with new arts and crafts, and don't get me started with the animations for the new S-Crafts (Fantastic). The story itself feels longer because of the increased number of chapters, but compared to the FC, SC's chapters are shorter. But the only issue I have for SC is the s***** achievements. Who in there right mind would create a achievement based on poker... I spent at least 4 hours trying to get a 4 of a kind. But other than that the game is a master piece. ART 8/10 MUSIC 10/10 - I definitely like the soundtracks when Joshua and Estelle are together, so soothing and calming. COMBAT 8/10 - Still has its weak parts but it is improved. DIFFICULTY - There is a big spike in the difficulty compared to FC in the early games, but near the last chapters it is just Earth Wall spam. OVERALL 9/10 - Solid game Would recommend anybody to play this game, If you are trying to 100% the game don't be shy to follow a guide, but do keep in mind that the poker achievement is based on luck. So hopefully you have a good luck.

The crown jewel of the wonderful and special Trails in the Sky trilogy. The centerpiece, the payoff, the "it was all worth it" part. FC and the 3rd can still stand shoulder to shoulder with SC thanks to their individual strengths, but this is indeed the game where most people come to stay impressed, making it the safest recommendation with the widest possible appeal. The most important thing to be aware of is that it starts slow ; much slower than FC, arguably, since you make another round around the same locations. Dozens of hours are spent on building up the antagonists and their mysterious plan, interspersed with more side quests about routine bracer work. They’re great, memorable, badass antagonists that gain a lot from their gradual introductions, yet it still might fall short of your story-focused expectations, especially if you already have glowing reviews like this one on your mind. However, those who persist through the 1st half will be rewarded with possibly the most thorough and impressive 2nd half in the genre’s history; a total masterclass on how to resolve plot threads, conclude character arcs and deliver on foreshadowed promises. Adventure, romance, drama, tension, twists, tragic backstories, scheming masterminds, convoluted politics, epic confrontations, satisfying conclusions and perfect sequel hooks – this story has it all, and it does it all beautifully. The endgame is particularly spectacular, starting with a multilayered political face-off where conversations feel more dangerous than any battles, then delivering on the key mystery with bold and thought-provoking sci-fi themes while also giving a perfect closure to every single participant’s personal story. The final chapter is also where the combat peaks (not that it was bad before, just more limited) as you finally get the full party and access to all magic. The only weird thing is that due to some balancing mishap the cheapest spells still remain more useful than most high-tier spells, but regardless, every key boss battle feels just as epic and thorough as the stories surrounding them. The cast is varied, likeable and utilized to its fullest potential. Everyone is given their time to shine, no one is forgotten, yet nobody turns into a "me too!" parrot like it often happens in more recent Falcom games. Estelle is an incredible protagonist, and it’s a true pleasure to watch her gradual yet unmistakable growth. The Big Bad deserves a special mention too, neither a cackling JPRG madman nor an oh-so-sympathetic victim of the circumstances but a chilling, intelligent, sadistic schemer who can put the party on the brink of defeat without personally lifting a finger. Even if you’ve already been burned before by "it gets better later" recommendations, I’d highly encourage you to give the Sky trilogy and SC a chance. It really is a gold standard of how to deliver on your own story’s promises and turn an unassuming start into something truly special.

If you haven't played the first game, stop reading, go play it, it's great. If you have played the first game, stop reading, go play this game, it's amazing. If you've played both, you know they're both great, so this review is pointless. 10/10 game
