The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky SC Reviews

Peak fiction. Unironically, Seriously, the first game had me intrigued and I love conspiracy stories but the slow pace made it hard to stay motivated. But this game kicked ass. Genuinely, I am stunned by what I just experienced, the voice acting (used skyinstaller) was stellar, the story post-chapter 3 had me addicted and got tears out of me, and every single chapter after 5 could've been the story's end, but they kept on giving more and more and more. This may be one of the greatest JRPGs I've ever experienced. [i]Ever.[/i] And I've played a lot. Turbo mode messes up Steam hours though :(

A wonderful journey, packed full of absolutely delightful NPC's, a great soundtrack, and a well-thought out loving cast. I certainly sunk my teeth into finding every chest and completing every sidequest throughout the 100 hour journey this was. While the very end of the game felt extremely rushed, and certain parts were tedious, this game has an unmistakable charm that made it unique. The story in SC is much more interesting than in FC. I genuinely wanted to know what was going to happen next from about 1/4 of the game onward, it picks up there and never really lets up till the end. The end itself felt a bit rushed, and some of the character conclusions about the world and their lives felt a little on the nose. Estelle's "final dialouge" being met with "Hmmph" from the main antagonist several times was a bit, jarring? compared to much of the series well-delivered over the top cheese and tongue-in-cheek nature. Overall I'd give this game a solid 9.4/10, it's truly a wonderful RPG

A mostly perfect follow up to the first game. It starts off pretty slow, but if you can make it to chapter 5, you'll be alright. Everything after is all you'd expect and more. It took me about 43 hours to finish, but that's with copious amounts of turbo mode (in-game timer said 66 hours). Can't wait to see what trauma the third game will give me... I've heard the stories.

If you're a fan of long jrpg games like persona 5 or long running jrpg series that are really good lets say final fantasy, dragon quest etc. I'd say this is the game for you but the thing about Legend of heroes franchise, you're gonna have to start with the first installment, Legend of heroes: Trails in the sky FC. The reason why is that every game after the previous one builds off of the last game. Let me paint an image for you if you want to read your favorite series lets say one piece, you're gonna have to read the first volume as an example. I love this series, I want other gamers to try it out. If it's not for you that's ok too the best thing is that at least you gave it a try and that's all that really matters. Thank you for reading stay strong out there fellow gamers.

FC walked so SC can run. This game worked so well as FC has built the foundation and world building for this game. Gameplay is virtually the same, except that there's more room for you to customize your team as you can switch around your party members as you wish, to some extent relative to the story. Story wise it's definitely far much personal and emotional than the first one. All those things in FC is leading up to this. Most of the characters shine through, while a few of them not so much. I have to say though, with the world is now opening up, it can be quite a chore to go backtrack when there's no fast travel available. Then again, it's yet another old game so you just got to live with that. Despite of the oudated game design, it's still a solid JRPG and definitely a really good sequel to FC.

The game story, characters are all so good. However, the game could crash at several points. And I spend 30 hours, played till the last chapter and got stuck at one point where the pointer disappeared in dialogue, preventing me from choosing the correct choice to conitnue the story. So, yeah, that's it. SUch a waste of time

Love the Trails series and being able to play this one on my pc has been great.

It’s incredible to think that this is just the beginning of such a massive saga, the world building in these jrpgs is simply outstanding and this game is no exception I loved every moment of it. That said, a word of caution: PLEASE AVOID playing on nightmare difficulty It was added exclusively to the PC port without proper or just any type of balancing making it brutally unfair and frustrating in certain sections. Even so, Trails in the Sky SC might just be my favorite hidden gem game ever.

One of the best sequel titles I've ever played, it ties up everything in the first game and kept furthering the lore and battle mechanics in interesting ways. Only downside is you have to play FC to play this game, but that is more because they are one full game rather than 2 separate games with how everything ties together.
