How goes Trails? I'm still waiting for my copy of Eiyuden Chronicles in the mail so I've been playing a pokemon-inspired game called Cassette Beasts. Though instead of actually catching creatures, you yourself are transforming into one, lol.

Well, expect a lot of dialogue, lol. I binged the series like two years ago, and stopped at Trails of Cold Steel IV because of burnout. I know there's even more games now, but I'm not sure when I'll get back into it.

As for me, Eiyuden Chronicles comes out next week. It's the spiritual successor the Suikoden series so I really hope it ends up being good. I know that people that backed the kickstarter are already playing it

Well, I binged through Albion and finished the game. The real end boss ends up being Balto which is not too big of surprise. I ended up using everyone you recruit on Albion and Amalia once I beat her in the colosseum. I used 9 parties of 5 units even though I did unlock the last one.

Had Alain marry Veronica. After finding out the queen was actually alive I hoped there would have been some dialogue saying, "you married your cousin"?!" but disappointingly there's nothing between them in the ending.

Really great game. Enjoyed it a lot.

lol, I'm using everyone you're not so far. Adel, Clive, Bruno, Doom Knight guy, and Josef. Just got the Bear guy, the leader of the Rock Rats, and the fox girl, but I don't think I'll be using any of them tbh. No class I've ditched entirely as the bestrals are pretty much just variation of regular classes. (like the lion guy is just a Berserker)

Did you use those star irons on those statues that give you Meteorite weapons?

Atm, it's still Virginia (Yunifi is a close second). I did really like the last rapport between Alain and Melisandre though. Story wants to push Scarlett, but forget that.

Made it to the snow country which is clearly furry land. I got thick thighs archer girl, lion dude, and an Owl lady with a protruding chest, lmao. At this point, I've promoted everyone I wanted to use aside from the healers. Still trying to play around and see who works best with who, but with Alain he's so OP, it doesn't seem to matter who's on his unit.

I only have one 5 unit team atm and it's the one of the pic in my profile, lol. The new "Knights of the Rose" are actually pretty good together. I wasn't gonna use Leah initially, but Swordmasters are just too cool in this game.

Yeah, no Magellan, but Liza is fun and one my favorite units. The elven-fencer seems interesting and not sure if I should use the half-elf archer or Galadmir (the other one you get).

I like Travis better for some reason. No room for Celeste either since you get Fran way earlier.

Yeah, I'm low on honor atm. Is there anyway to reliably farm it? 200 to upgrade to a 5 party unit seems like a lot.

Anyways, finished up liberating Drakenhold and went to elf land and rescued the blonde sister. Got a few other party members along the way. At this point I'm not using Jeremy, Colm, Lhinalagos, Magellan, and the two guys I spared earlier. I feel like I should be using Gilbert given all the nice buffs he gives your unit, but I can't find a spot for him.

Aside from Mordon, I don't wanna drop anyone yet, lol. Josef is clearly the Jeigan of this game, but I guess he stays useful the entire game? I've been using either way. Though I'm running out of team slots and it seems you can't upgrade to 5 party units until renown reaches rank A so I'm gonna have to drop some units eventually. Promotion is now available to me though. Is promoting right away the best way to do it?

Did you use the shaman lady? Who do shamans pair well with?

I did. He's pretty easy to miss despite being close to area where you start the game. No idea why he's so obsessed with getting his mother's attention, but I guess he's worth using? Recruited the healer with dead eyes, Tatiana, and went back to Drakenhold to help out that Prince Gilbert. That huge amazon woman is strong, but given how high her level is in the colosseum she's won't be recruitable for awhile. Got my first Wyvern Knight in Hilda as well.

edit that, I went back and explored Cornia a bit and recruited Melisandre. Is that who you went with? After her scenes, I'm liking her as well. She admits flat out that she's fine being one of Alain's side-chicks when he becomes king, lmao. Also found Clive's ex-fiancé, Monica, to get another radiant knight.

Don't tell me you married him off to his cousin, Virginia, who's the spitting image of his mom. (just younger) Even if you didn't, I might go that route since she was immediate best girl as soon as she showed up, lmao. Got her along with her attendant, and then the next stage we got some powerful general lady, and another swordfighter and healer.

Speaking of marriage, can Alain marry any of the female characters or does have set choices like FE?

Well, made some progress and rescued Scarlett. Wasn't expecting to fight Galerius so early, but it made for a nice early challenge since I was bit unprepared. Roster is getting bigger as I also recruited Adel, Berenice, Mordon, Nina, Selvie, the witch lady, and the 3 units that join you after saving Scarlett. I'm not sure who to pair up with who now

got a few more members to join. The archer, Rolf, seem really useful in hitting those pesky thieves and can give support barrage as well. Got some big Gladiator dude (did you use him?) and a healer. I thought the angel girl was gonna join, but I guess she runs a shop instead.

Also spared the two boss units. Though the second guy having the same exact story with the sick sister is a little suspect, lol.

Why the Apollo music? Going through it again, lol?
