    Sure there's exceptions but the whole discussion was born about "start games wherever" and I pointed out that people told me to start the Legend of Heroes at the Cold Steel series that has an avengers big payoff in the third or fourth game that wont hit for nothin' if I don't know everybody

    Intro to Kaze no Densetsu Xanadu II on PC Engine CD-ROM² in 1995. Apparently within the Dragon Slayer universe, which is also in the Legend of Heroes universe? That's too specific for my blood; all I know is that this action role-playing game looks absolutely incredible #gaming #retro #anime 🎮

    The Legend of Heroes didn't come out of nowhere. It was Dragon Slayer VI originally, a game that Falcom decided to create because they hadn't made a Dragon Quest-ish title yet, but wanted to show that they could do the Enix and Square thing, too. If you're into old-school RPGs, you'll like this one

    Legend of Heroes goes dungeon crawler, and honestly, it's a home run. The great thing about this epilogue edition of Trails In The Sky is that we get to play not only our old favorites but a wide cast of the important NPC's as well. Everyone gets their moment to shine and I am so into it. Didn't think I would, but to play them, try out their abilities, play through their back stories, learn of their poignant back stories, makes me love the Trails series even more. There are shocking reveals,…
