falcom should have closed shop after 3rd

look at this slut

Game only gets good in cold steel though

Good thing the door is always open for you to leave huh?

Some day soon. I believe in futureanon.

>Vitas plan all along was to become the mother of a thousand young by getting gangbanged by immortal divine knight pilots every day

I thought Rean came across as a bit of a Gary Stu in the chapter 4 scene before Fie and Laura fight him and Machias. Machias arbitrarily becomes a whiny chickenshit just to prop Rean up and make him look cooler.

Sure, but that's not really the only moment where Machias is all that hot for fighting. He displays annoyance at that type of shit more often than once.

Going to Heimdallr had me hype, but going with Machius and fucking soyboy Elliot ruined it for me. Of course they made Rean look cool, that's their entire characters.

the salt pale door was fucking fantastic

He's not really annoyed so much as terrified, though.

>Machias: We don't stand a chance against them!
>Rean: Hehe... I knew it would come to this. *wind blows through hair*

It felt like they emasculated Machias to prop up Rean.

It was. It made me think of a Ryukishi07 VN.

I miss that cute dork

I'm also a major sucker for that style of story telling, plus it had that ominous feel the entire time reading about a fucking disaster that took place and turned people and objects to freaking salt. Hopefully we can visit it in Cs 4, since there's a road that leads to North Ambria in 3.

I guess, but like i said, Machias was never once to be all that great at fighting anyway, and they all know Laura and Fie are monsters, especially if they fight together. Rean is just too much of a "yes man" for me to feel it's weird of him honestly.

So a nice idea stretched to infinity? Or lol magic fuck your mystery I wrote myself into a corner?

Neither, I love all his stuff without reserve. I'm reading Rose Guns Days at the moment.

It reminded me of those reports you find in the classic RE games

Rean..

Elise...

hime-sama...

Is there anything more annoying than enemies that just explode when you kill them? I think the start of Zero has like a bunch of those, and it eases up on them halfway through. And those goddamn insta death screamers.

>Is there anything more annoying than enemies that just explode when you kill them?
yes, bosses that self buff and heal like in CS2

That was annoying at the start, but after you get a hold of better equipment, they stop being a pain. Healing for bosses is always annoying too as well though, especially if the fucker does it non stop, like Loewe using Tearal in FC.

Discuss this great man and why he did absolutely nothing wrong.

I wonder how it feels to have the worst daughter in the series. Even Shirley's a better daughter than that bitch.

vulcan...

Zero/Ao had the best character art so far in my opinion, I really like it

>lady gunslinger
Taito pistolwhipping more like it.
>watered down Sara + Machias
Aster's more Elie than Sara but I guess it's not completely inaccurate.
>Ronin dude Wild Rage spammer
Zah does more than JUST Wild Rage. He's got good speed and support abilities too.
>Arts Indian hacker
Keith's also the defensive powerhouse of the five. His main role's to tank hits and blast away with powerful Arts.
>no porn Fangshu
This is accurate, though fuck Japan for ignoring Rose so hard.
>loli kunoichi
Chiyo's also the only party member that can do Delay decently. And not even mentioning her LAMBDA-G having the highest Stealth rating? Teleporting around the field is one of the most fun things.
>Guest members
Yun Ka-Fai barely counts since he's only there for the special mission but otherwise accurate.
>harem shenanigans & romance
That's pretty misleading. Like yeah they're not all trying to have Aster ride them cowgirl style but half the playable characters at some point comment on her attractiveness. Only 3 "romance" options is technically accurate in that only Zah, Kieth, and Victoria get a kiss, but you can give chocolate to everyone else in the final bonding event and nearly all of them have vaguely romantic comments about it. Richard, Kanone, and Gaius are the only ones that actually make it clear they're not interested in Aster.

>Plot
Man he really has skimmed this off Gamefaqs. No mention of the Desparado jaegars, the movie plot, the Eastern Armies, nothing.

>Link Crafts
While this is kinda accurate, he's leaving out some bits on the Stealth function, the Arts bonuses, or even the combo bonuses.

>Leveling
Okay I can't fault any of this. It's fairly accurate, but leaving out some of the game breaking builds.

>things you will not like about Calvard
Aster going "Hottokenai!" constantly doesn't even get a mention? Brings up the graphics but not the annoying as FUCK exploding enemies? The cut content? Rose getting NO porn?

I'll give him Lidia. Lidia a shit.

>can't romance Gaius
The winds will remember this.

Can't believe no one ever talks about the netorase subplot.

...

>Lloyd breaks out of Jail
>Runs around the country to put his party back together
>Invades Crossbell and takes it back from Crois.
>Random ass dungeon with all the bosses from before shows up out of nowhere
>Lloyd and co fight their way through and dispell the dungeon.

And this is all one chapter of Ao.

Why does it take CS2 an entire game to do the same thing?

Cold steel has better cast

Gaius is bestboy.

>can give chocolate to Anelace
>can't get a kiss from Anelace
ONORE FALCOM

Rean's mom is the grandmaster.

...

Because CS2 is supposed to be CS1's final chapter but they want $$$.

>CS2 is supposed to be CS1's final chapter
ahahahah this is the dumbest fucking meme. Rean and friends are supposed to go through the whole civil war part in a single chapter? Rean is supposed to go from a dumb high school kid who JUST got his mecha to somebody who Osborne can use as a fake hero figure/pawn in a SINGLE chapter? This is dumb as fuck, if Falcom tried doing that, you would be bitching that it was rushed and nothing was developed well enough.

Sara...

and yet the game felt like a single chapter stretched into 60 hours.

SC was 50% padding

CS2 was 90% and I'm being kind to the game.

Will CS4 be nothing but padding?

Am i the only one who enjoys the usual slow pace of the series? I enjoyed it even when i first started playing sky honestly. The whole deal with "padding" doesn't really ring a bell for me since i'm so engrossed by the world, and the people in it, that it doesn't really feel like forced content to fill up the game.

To you it did. To me, it did not. Maybe because one of us has ADHD and the other knows how to sit and enjoy a nice game.

their costs skyrocketed by going to full 3D plus harem shit (which led to more man/hours writing all that dialogue, modeling and animating the characters), so they had to compromise the storytelling to milk the series with CS2 to make up for that

But who is canon romance, other futureanon?

No, you're not. I don't see why retards crying about so-called ""padding"" even play this series. I suspect they are newfags who were brought into the series through the turbo function, fucking xseed ruined the fanbase by pandering to retards when they added that feature in

Having a threesome with Sara and Juna is my idea of Erebonian heaven.

I don't really think the turbo function made anything worse honestly. I love using it myself to go through animations faster, but i still pay attention to the world.

I enjoy too, the "padding" has been part of the series since FC. That being said I do think it's handled better in Sky, but I still enjoy CS. Crossbell still has my favorite pacing in the series though.

Slow pacing is great, except only FC ever did it right.
In fact, I only come this far only because FC baited me so hard.

But I played CS in my Vita complete with the single digit fps.

People were modding turbo mode into the games via cheat engine long before Xseed implemented it.

It sounds nice, but I think it's one of the less likely three-way combos. Rean/Sara/Fie, Rean/Sara/Claire, Rean/Claire/Osborne, Crow/Vita/Rean, Alisa/Rean/Sharon seem like the top contenders to me.

No, you're not. Slow and comfy is great. I liked the revisiting parts in SC because I liked traveling around Liberl and seeing all these locations again. I liked being able to go around Liberl on without being locked into one town even more because of that as well, I'd honestly been waiting for that since FC. I liked traveling around on the Courageous for much the same reason. That and because it reminded me of getting the Delphinus in Skies of Arcadia and gathering up my own crew.

Because the Vita was a mistake.

Yes, thank you for proving my point. Adding in that feature attracted retards by making it easier than ever for ADHD idiots to enjoy the game, now they don't even have to use cheatengine or anything else.

We are really the cold steel 2 after all

The pacing in FC was pretty much identical to FC's though, if not better. You were always learning something important, and learning more and seeing the interactions of the group. I don't see how the others were any worse. I do agree that SC did drag at points, but there was still enough going on. Cs 1 was also nice, but i can see why some people wouldn't like the whole school working as a hub.

>Magical Alisa
>No Demon Prince Rean

Something feels wrong here.

>tfw watching some guy playing Sky on youtube skipping all combat animations

The pacing was similar to Zero's i meant.

I usually only do that after I've seen it already.

why would you do that to yourself?

>Rean/Clair/Osborne

D E L E T

Dammit this is getting more stupid than I remembered.

I'll skip the s-craft animations if I'm s-craft bombing and I've seen all the crafts a million times.

>Watching combat animation in any RPG outside of boss battles

Time to drown this icy slut in pleasure, son.

Yeah I meant on new stuff too.
I like watching people play through the games for the first time since I can't have that experience again.

>どや
This smug looking girl

>Implying that's not exactly what she wants.

How is that stupid? There's even crazier robots going around you know? Millium's can freaking change shape, and extend it's own limbs beyond what's actually possible, and robots that can harness the power of space itself and destroy entire fortresses.

>that pic

>haha i liked this game before but now that /fg/ told me it's bad I think it's stupid ahaha!
>do i fit in yet?

Pretty sure those robots are made in Crossbell by the Doll Factory, you fight them in both Zero and Ao. Unless Reinford uses the exact same design which is unlikely. Then again they use Vogels so who knows.

Like pottery

>You will never have a comfy slice of life existence with KeA

Thanks Aidios it's over, this was easily the worst game in the series so far. I always felt attached to the characters to the point of feeling empty inside when the games ended (I almost cried with 3rd), but with CS2 all I wanted was it to be over.

Pretty sure it's a reference to Shimoneta, which had the girl who is super fucking lewd with the same voice actor, Miyu Matsuki. ;_;

If they're made like user said then it's kinda passable. I still laughed when I saw it.
Fuck off retard. If I didn't like the game I wouldn't be replaying it.

Wheres the Cold Steel version fuck

she died of pneumonia, wasn't it?

I played 3rd first but I felt emptier inside after CS2.
Must be the long release gap between PSP FC and SC.

For some reason Crossbell got a ton of official SOL art, haven't seen much of CS.

Well the model of the robot is the same one you find in the Crossbell games, specifically the one you run across at the end of chapter 4 of Zero inside the Mafia building, so his assumption is probably true.

>all those U Materials on bottom right

>CS is so deep into the persona 4 hole they even ripoff the farewell ending
Like lmao...

Noooo Crow don't die
