The Legend of Heroes: Trails from Zero

Very slow paced new Trails (you know it if you already played sky, but even slower), but very cool characters and engaging story. If you liked sky, you'll like this one.

As much as this game is good and is able to stand alongside the previous Trails games in terms quality of story and gameplay, the progression of this series strays away from what made the sky trilogy special. To me, the sky games excel because of how they capture so idyllically the atmosphere of being on an adventure to explore the world. Perhaps to its credit, Crossbell feels more cold and clinical compared to the warmth presented in the more rural Liberl. Perhaps the role of police officers causes diversions to feel more transactional; or the pace is hurried along faster without the presence of such an easily befriending character like Estelle. This results in the game lacking what made it stand out compared to other jrpgs; the simplicity of it all. Going forward, it seems as the main goals of this series is to place an emphasis on government and political struggles, which while also unique, is separate from the charm of FC along with SC and 3rd to lesser extents. If the purpose of SC and Azure are to pay off the setup in their prior games, Zero succeeds, but does so with much less charm than FC. Instead, it opts for a more story and plot driven game closer to SC, while also priming the player to the new setting and characters which is not necessarily a bad thing. To its credit, the main characters are all quite fun and interesting, the plot is unique and fresh and the gameplay is improved once more, resulting in this game feeling faster in terms of pacing compared to FC. However, in doing so, it lost what made the sky trilogy special to me.

Trails from zero имеет вайбики первого trails in the sky, когда вся игра это один большой пролог к ещё более глобальной истории в сиквеле. Новые персонажи довольно харизматичные, мне все они понравились, и что удивительно нет чувства повторения с трейлсом при учёте всего многообразия персонажей. Ну и про старых не забыли, закрыли арку Эстель, Джошуа и Ренны из третьего трейлс, и даже развили сюжетку Антона (который вообще сайд перс, про которого кроме меня вообще никто не вспомнил бы) Музыка как и всегда ахуй, уже лежит в спотифае, а вот к дизайну есть вопросоки, особенно к артам персонажей. Если бы я не знал, что игре 16 лет, я бы подумал что это нейронка из-за их какой-то всратости, хз. В скае арты поприятнее были 8/10, большие надежды на Азуру

It's a lovely game. (This review is dedicated to my friend Blank Page. Steam reviews is serious business. Take them seriously!)

2010年零轨刚出的时候我还是个小学生，每天上学能拿到1块钱去门口小卖部买包辣条都能乐得直冒泡，买正版是不可能了，那会好像也没有破解版，所以虽然玩了3rd之后很想很想知道后续，但也只能靠看游民星空的专区里的立绘解馋，后来也就逐渐淡忘了轨迹系列。直到去年玩了空轨1st，尘封近20年的记忆被唤醒，再也无法克制住对后续剧情的好奇（也不用克制了，毕竟已经是社畜了，呵呵），买了零轨和碧轨。今晚通关了零轨，我很开心，零轨讲了一个好故事，我20年的等待没有白费，谢谢你法老控

Jogão, mais um acerto da franquia.

textures + text are ai scaled which looks out of place. id recommend playing the geofront version of this that doesnt have that. same problem with the other crossbell game
