All of that allowed by the excellent writing for the villains of this game.įrom slobbering brutes, through honorable knights and even sharply intelligent masterminds, the villains have clear motivations that make sense. That is all underlined with the great sidequests that only serve to build off the main issues with situations that enrich the main story.Īll of this culminates in one of my now favorite ending sequences, where even though the stakes seem like they could never be paid off, they somehow exceed my expectations. When it comes to pacing, the game keeps itself interesting by continuously upping the stakes and throwing curveballs to the player, forcing them to deal with a wild amount of issues, from politics, frauds, smuggling, violence etc. The old cast is not left behind as they all have things to do and in some cases even have some more growing to do. The two new additions to our beloved SSS feel distinct in story, personality and gameplay, earning them an easy top spot in my book. even more character information is hidden behind the final social events which just does not feel good for a story heavy game like this as some characters get a lot more interesting with the information hidden behind themĪs the fifth game in the amazing Trails series and the second and final game in the Crossbell arc, Trails to Azure leapfrogs most games in this series and stands as a fantastic conclusion to its set up from Zero. no chapter of this game feels like it wastes time as there is always something interesting happening the addition of Master Quartz, the Burst mechanic alongside the added Combination Crafts make this games combat a lot more strategically interesting side quests build on the mystique of Crossbell and give you additional characters to follow up on from the first game well realized motivations for our heroes and villains that make a lot of this story work without any hitches, plus the ending had me floored the cast continues to excellent and the new additions are among my favorite characters for this arc
