Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel 3 - Prologue (Demo)
I was not expecting this to drop when it did, so I had to stop what I was working on and crank this out quickly as I imagine quite a few people have been waiting a long time to see where we are headed.
I'm still not certain if we are supposed to win that fight against the Steel Knights as they seem far more difficult than what should be expected of new players. Someone just learning the battle system can very easily run into a brick wall against them, and the new systems make them a little difficult even for returning players. Now that I know a few tricks, I am tempted to fight them again when the actual game is released. Alternatively, just beating down the archer could be a simpler solution. I imagine they will be easier if we face them again once we catch up to this point in time as we will have customized equipment by then.
Storyline-wise, I believe we are picking up right after the fight with Lloyd and Rixia from the end of CS2. The original Class 7 is scattered, and the new one is put together with pieces from all over the place. We start with a member of the Vanders and someone from the Crossbell Police, so we will have to see how they compare to Mueller and Lloyd as the game progresses.
As for my thoughts, I still am not the biggest fan of Cold Steel as I believe the previous titles are much better. This game is pretty divisive from what I have read with some considering it to be the best CS game while others consider it the worst. I think the "in media res" scene in this one is pretty weak, so maybe the rest of the game will make up for it. The power scaling of characters is all over the place, so that alone will not be doing the main series justice. I am wondering if we get any justification for continuing to use Rean instead of just getting a new MC, so I have my expectations and am hoping Falcom doesn't screw this up.
Lastly, if anyone spots a translation for the CS3 opening song, I will put out a video with it. I'll keep my eyes peeled, but if someone finds it first, I will go ahead and put one out like I did for Sky 1 and Zero. I'm kind of hoping I can do Sky 2 and 3 next week (I've been putting it off).
