going to end it tonight in a wild wild nugget but some gentleman is playing it so i can't do that yep 25 spins we're doing well we're gonna do 25 spins we did it yesterday for a thousand bucks we

some late night live play i'll talk to some people and figure out a game plan there's no promises [Music] well i got some money to throw in the pot it could be video poker who knows two more yeah yeah

submitted by (Part 6ish of CasinoBeard) Hello friends! I have finally returned with part 6 of the CasinoBeard Saga. Sorry it’s been taking like. A week to finally get to writing these but I have a decently busy life (full time job and trade school and pets and a workout/5K schedule and a boyfriend and you know. Life stuff.) I apologize for the delays. I’ve been condensing the story’s and only telling the big doozy’s and leaving out all the little times he just said something stupid. So hopefully this is the semifinal? Maybe?
Here are our characters for this tale of woe:
Me: 18 year old girl. First time working a proper night shift. I have some dorky tattoos, look like a punk, and I’m not afraid to speak my mind. And also I live my life online so I have an Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and an Instagram page specifically for my pet rabbit (relevant).
CasinoBeard: CB for short. 30something, tall, fat greaseball of a human with no regard for boundaries. Can’t believe a girl likes video games and also doesn’t want him to touch her. Lmao what.
Chad: 20something tall as heck “chad” looking dude. Is aware of CB’s antics , and is slowly becoming my “work husband”
So, this story is a bit of a peculiar one. Mr. Rogers (my shift supervisor) had been doing an amazing job since the cafeteria incident of the last story(for a month or so) and made sure that CB and I were nowhere near each other and made sure we had separate breaks. But I’d see him every now and again and he’d go out of his way to say some stupid shit. Whatever not as bad as him following me at work. To summarize the last story, CB brought his creepy bullshit on me while Mr. Rogers took a shit on our break and I just wanted to eat my mozzarella sticks.
So, as I’ve made painfully obvious, I worked a night shift at this casino. So that meant about midnight to 8am. Something worth noting of this casino is it has absolutely no windows (unless you’re near an exit/entrance) and no clocks at all. So this creates the illusion of an absence of time and the outside world. And therefore it really fucked with me when I went into work and it was dark as hell and then when I leave work it’s sunrise.
To say I was having a hard time adjusting is generous. It was so strange bc at the time I was training for athletic events so I’d go home take a short nap then deal with my fur children and then work out for 4 hours and then nap again and then work. (I mostly did 5k or 10k races for anyone who cared and in general trying to help treat a joint disorder but that’s another can of worms.)
Now. This was my routine. And I don’t know about you but I’m not neurotypical so I damn near have a stroke if my routine is vastly interrupted. You need to give me 3-5 days notice if you want to interrupt my day.
Anyways. Like in a previous story, I was in my bed with my dog, checking my Instagram and shit. My main was aight. Nothing new. Just silently judging everyone else’s life choices bc I’m insecure about mine. Then, I switched over to my rabbits account.
I have two rabbits. One is just small and white with blue eyes and is perfect. So to prevent my main from being overrun with photos of her, I made a separate one. Mostly for friends who actually want to see her and my family who adore her are the only followers.
And as you could have predicted. Guess whomst the fuckdve followed the account.
Our lovely friend, CasinoBeard.
I swear to god his profile pic looked like an old ass MySpace angle with his greasy hair in his face and a fedora.
Now in the last story where he followed one of my accounts, I had an issue with him looking at photos of my dog on there. The first thing at the front of my mind was “he doesn’t DESERVE to see the perfection that is my son.” And then the generic fear of your work stalker making things personal.
Now if you haven’t been following the story closely, I had recently realized that CB is a fat sack of shit but I firmly believe he has the ability and potentially the intent to hurt me. So I had (still have) a slight fear of him hurting me or like. Forcing himself on me.
I digress. The account for my aryan rabbit was public also, and he commented on one of the older posts. And it just. Sounded like something a serial killer would say.
“She looks so helpless <3”
ExCuEsE mE bUt WhAt ThE fUcK
Now that fear of him hurting me stabbed me in my heart and twisted into a fear of him hurting the only things that matter to me. Fuck no.
I wasn’t shaking or anything. But you know when you’re about to cry and your eyes are extra moist and the back of your throat starts to clench and hurt? It was that feeling. Just utter helplessness.
I deleted the comment and blocked him from that profile too.
I got up and scooped her off of the floor where she was sleeping and just held her for a while. I was too hyped for First Nap. I went about my day as usual but I was still being tugged at by such an uncomfortable feeling. I had told my mom, who I live with, that a coworker was stalking me and showed her a screenshot of the inappropriate comment (if I can find it I will post it but after I quit I erased all physical evidence of his debauchery.) She was understanding and everyone in the house to this DAY makes sure the house is always locked and replaced all the windows with safety glass that sounds like a gunshot when it’s broken. We resorted to a security system near the end but, that’s for another story.
Fast forward!! It’s 11 o’clock. I took the back roads to get to work because my car was utter shit. It wouldn’t go above 50mph or go uphill without losing speed. I had crashed my car into a bus (not my fault) so the front looked like a fucking nightmare. What I’m trying to say is my car was very very easily identifiable.
I’m putting on my jacket and sharing the last of my dinner with my dog. She legit only wakes up to eat whatever I don’t and then passes back out in front of the radiator. I opened my front door to be blasted in the face by New England winter cold in the middle of the night. My car sputtered as I started it, one of the headlights refused to turn on but eventually started blinking into existence.
Took the back route that goes basically directly from my house to the road leading to the casino. But it was about 35 minutes opposed to a quit 15 minutes on the highway that my car would be unable to make.
Now. Imagine it. It’s the backwoods of fucking New England at 11:10 pm at night. It’s like. 3°f and it’s a week day. You’d think the roads would be relatively empty, right?
Yeah bich I wish.
I drove down a massive hill that takes you through a smaller town and then to the empty woods the road goes through. Someone was behind me. Two little headlights attached to a white car. They looked like they were going r e a l l y fast. Like this is a residential area so the speed limit was 35 but this motherfucker was whipping it down this icy ass fucking hill. I was secretly hoping they would rear end me so I could sue and also not have to go to work. But dreams never come true.
It was a double yellow line. This dude passed me and flung down the road. Okay you do you man I just wanna go make my money. About 5 minutes later, I’m at a stop light near a gas station. The light turns green and my car starts to chug forwards. Someone whips out of the gas station and has his brights on. Guess where this motherfucker just HAS TO BE. like maybe 3 inches behind my rear.
Whatever. Just a jackass with somewhere important to be at 11:15 pm. Pass me bitch.
But. He didn’t.
The whole ride I was maintaining maybe a solid 40mph but this dude was right behind me. We get to a broken yellow line but. They’re still there.
Okay whatever. I was maybe 2 miles from the nearest town and it would be suburbs and small city road for the rest of the drive. Maybe they just. Really liked to look at the back of my head.
We finally make it to where there are a shitload of houses and I was hoping this dude would turn off on one of the side streets. But nah. Right one my ass. With his brights on. Well, what a better time to do a break check than now?
I tap my breaks a couple times in a town, slowing back down. This bitch. Honked at me.
Well y’all should know me well enough by now I rolled down the window and let the bird fall victim to the fucking freezing dry air.
He starts flashing his lights.
Oh god. It was the same car as before, speeding down the hill.
Well. With his lights flashing. I could vaguely make out a head the size of a manhole cover. With the same reflective golden shine on his chest that my name tag has.
He followed me. From BASICALLY my house, and he’s following me to work.
This is also the night that my car was pushed to its limits. I slammed the gas and my car hissed and screamed at me but eventually I was going faster. I know these roads by heart so I was easily whipping around corners and shit. His car was struggling to keep up. Why was he trying to keep up??
I finally made it to the parking lot.
I pulled into the “public lot” that was basically an overfill lot for patrons. I park my car as close to the cross walk as I could. My blood was boiling. I was going. To shit myself. In anger.
He parks a row behind me and jumps out of his car, screaming.
“Why were you driving like such a fucking psychopath?!” He was screaming.
“What was your ass following me from home you fucking retard?!!!” Sorry for the slur but like. I was in the moment.
The employee center thing was right across the street. People were standing outside, waiting for the shuttle, and three of them took off in a run over to us.
“Why does it fucking matter you could have gotten me killed!” He was screaming. He normally gross spongey voice was bellowing like a fucking lion with brain damage.
“YOU WERE THE PRICK WITH YOUR LIGHTS ON BEHIND ME”
Chad and two others showed up. “What the fuck is going on here!” One of them tried to scream over us.
I was borderline tears. Chad grabbed my arm and basically had to fireman carry me to the employment office area. CB was still over there, screaming. I was going insane. He followed me. From my house. And has the nerve to try and gaslight me saying it was my fault? (Worth noting I found out this guy lives maybe 10 miles in the other direction from the casino so he actively went out of his way to find me. It was impossible to be a coincidence.)
We made it into the office. He sat me down on one of the chairs but I was going insane. Screaming about how he had followed me and that I was quitting.
One of the other people inside had called tribal police. While I was going off apparently CB and the other two guys were stopped by tribal police and brought to the main casino for questioning. One of the guys was aware of his creepy antics and said that CB was trying to run me off the road. I mean close enough.
An officer walked into the office where I was still losing my shit. They attempted to calm me down but it ended with me throwing my name tag and badge on the floor and screaming I quit and another officer had to come help calm me down.
I eventually relaxed a little bit. The drive Chad and I to the main casino, where the tribal police station was. I r e f u s e d to be within 100 feet of him so we had to use an empty conference room for my “interrogation.”
I’m going to drastically shorten what happened here to save us all the time. I told police about his weird comment on my insta and some of his past behavior and even THEY AGREED much like a lot of you that CB should have been fired. Or at least reprimanded. I firmly believe if we worked day shift he would have been fired already. Night shift doesn’t care.
I told them everything about my car ride. And then I was told via radio what CB’s story was. Basically I was driving like a maniac and wouldn’t let him pass me on the road. Literally suggesting my piece of shit car could have kept up with his car going uphill. Okay seems accurate.
My mom ended up having to pick me up. I was in hysterics (and my car wouldn’t start. It had to be towed and scrapped and I blame him for this. If he hadn’t chased me my car wouldn’t have broken down completely.)And you guys will never guess what happened! Because I quit the fucking upper level management people in the security department didn’t do a fucking thing to him. He went back to work that very night. I had my mom bring a change of clothes so I could immediately return my uniform. It took me that long to quit. But I did. Finally.
And that’s the end. Lmao bet nope this fucker couldn’t leave me alone.
I went home and was hysterically crying. My mom said tomorrow we were going to the police station to file a restraining order. But that didn’t make me feel much better. So I did what every self respecting teenager does that night. I smoked a bunch of weed and called up my best guy friend and cried and made him spend the night.
Now. There is still the last final bit. I’m sure a lot of you will love the ending but to answer some questions he never gets fired.
The final will be probably really long , so expect it in about a week. I love you all, peace my dudes.
Edit: some grammar and whatever
Also just wanna say thanks for coming on this journey with me. I appreciate every view and every comment and try to answer any questions. So feel free to ask any on this or previous posts ;* I have an epilogue prepared to say how my life is now, how chad is doing, and an update on CB.
And I’m thinking once this is over maybe every now and then I’ll post some of the other stories about CB that I just didn’t think were groundbreaking to include in any of these longer posts. Let me know if that’s something you’d like :)
Double edit: pm me for my rabbits instagram lmao
submitted by I made a post on SC a couple of weeks ago, so following up on that:
https://www.reddit.com/Falcom/comments/8gh5ri/finished_trails_in_the_sky_sc_wow/ This game was a great way to wrap up the trilogy! The focus on Kevin and the church was refreshing after 2 games with Estelle/Joshua, and I loved the side stories spread out across the game. I wish more games had proper epilogues like this - most tend to just end SC-style, which is unsatisfying after spending so long with a sizable cast. It was super sad saying goodbye to the Liberl cast, and I’ll definitely miss them after the ~190 hours I spent with them. I’ll talk about my thoughts on the main story first, and then the individual doors (since these were by far the best part).
Main Story
The title screen is beautiful. Not quite SC level, but the unnatural colour scheme, calming water, and the beautiful mirror
that totally doesn’t spoil the final dungeon combine to make a beautiful piece of art that does a great job at representing the mysterious and unknown nature of Phatasma. The poignant music adds to that.
Prologue: Holy crap, talk about a fantastic way to start things off. The airship scene was a great way to show Kevin’s everday life. I love how it immediately shows his darker side that was revealed at the end of SC, and the contrast between that and his nice guy persona is as awesome as ever. Interesting sneakpeak into Erebonia’s corruption too (then again, which country doesn’t have corruption). Him smashing the window and jumping out of the airship was cliched but who cares, it was cool. Ries also had a great introduction. I was immediately interested in her, and curious to find out her relation to Kevin. I also liked how quickly she stopped distancing herself, and her bottomless stomach was hilarious. Tita’s mother… Tita briefly described her in SC, but seeing her in person was something else. Her absurd hatred for Agate is fucking hilarious - I’ll go more in-depth in Moon Door 1. Gilbert making another appearance is amusing, certainly didn’t expect him to be a recurring character back in FC. Then totally-not-Loewe appears (I had voices on so it instantly gave it away, ontop of the hair), and the magic cube MacGuffin sends the two into another dimension. I was very confused about Loewe’s appearance, and thought he’d been memory wiped or something. Also salty since I knew the game was trying to bait me into thinking he can be brought back.
Chapter 1: I think there was a scene showing Kevin/Reis’ backstory but I forgot what it showed (chocolate scene?). They were drip fed across the game, so I’ll just talk about it in more depth when it’s relevant. Tita and Schwartz appearing first was amusing and gave some rare interactions. Jade Corridor has a nice atmosphere but gets boring fast. I think Schwartzritter revealed his name, which made me worry Loewe was sent to hell and brainwashed or something. I like how the Japanese name is just ‘Black Knight’. Phantasma was a bit random, but the garden was a relaxing hub at least. Seeing a demon from the Testaments was cool, gotta love that Septian church lore.
Chapter 2: Hooray for reused assets. It was kinda annoying watching everyone believe they were in the actual Grancel, but I guess that’s fair enough on Schwartz’s part. I was expecting to get Zin from the arena, so kinda freaked out when it turned out to be Joshua. Of course I immediately went to check his status screen art to see how it would compare to his incredible one in SC… and yikes. You have no idea how long I spent convincing myself those were normal body proportions from an unusual angle so that I wouldn’t go insane every time I saw it. I’m not really sure what the artist was thinking. Oh well, Joshua is Joshua, immediate permanent team member regardless. Anyway Gilbert being Gilbert, another cool demon, and of course Kloe. I respect them for not making me go through FC’s monstrous final dungeon again.
Chapter 3: A worse Jade Corridor. Um, some characters I forgot appeared. Facing fake Kevin/Ries was random. The explanation for Grimoires was moderately horrifying. I loved seeing Ries get pissed off at Kevin for repressing his true thoughts around her, and everyone else. His talk with Joshua was great, it’s nice to see someone actually does their research. Pretty sure Kevin was lying to himself about not caring for Estelle/Joshua at all, even if he did use them to his advantage.
Chapter 4: More reused assets. I’ll give them respect for mixing up the areas a little, the Autumn forest was nice. New dungeon music was solid too. I had to avoid screaming out loud when I saw a moon door for Estelle and Joshua. Gilbert made another Gilberty appearance. A fake Scherezard and Agate as bosses because why not. Finale was great, I loved the reveal of Kevin’s stigma. Talk about an awesome S-break. Ries coming in to help was sweet, I knew she wouldn’t let harm come to Kevin. At this point I started to suspect the Lord of Phantasma would be Kevin’s dark side (though I hoped it wouldn’t since that’s boring imo). And Estelle finally appeared! I knew she’d be the last one, and it was great to finally see her again. I didn’t realise how much I loved her until she was gone for so long.
Chapter 5: Estelle teaming up with Ries was very… Estelle. My opinion of this plane is the same as the other odd-numbered planes. I worked out Richard and Renne would join at some point based on the loading screens (I wish they didn’t spoil the playable characters in these), but it was awesome having some former antagonists join up. Especially Renne, I loved how she immediately threatened to slaughter everyone instead of acting out of character. Ries worsening the situation was good writing considering her position, and I loved seeing Tita resolve it
or more like the scene made me tear up. Once Renne is convinced to temporarily team up with them (her status screen art is amazing btw), she pretty easily solves the mystery behind Phantasma. I feel like we didn’t see much of her genius-side in SC due to her doing it mostly behind the scenes and being dependent on Loewe/Weissman, so it was cool to see here. Celeste appearing (or at least her copy) was awesome, I didn’t think I’d actually see her outside of exposition dumps, and expected the voice to be some generic fairy thing.
Chapter 6: Phew, this was far longer than I expected. I almost missed some party dialogue since I didn’t realise it changed after finishing each monument, but thankfully I keep an excessive amount of save files. I’m pretty shocked to hear Renne has 3 doctorates at her age, but she is shown to be far smarter than some of the smartest characters in the party (at least in terms of theory/logic) so I suppose it’s not too unbelievable. Fighting copies of characters that are forced to fight by the big bad is kinda silly and fan servicey (no not that kind), but I had fun with them so I’ll let it
mostly slide. Fighting Philip and Kilika and actually getting to see them in action was awesome – they have amazing S-breaks. I couldn’t believe Cassius was a guardian, and it definitely wasn’t an easy fight (I play on easy so that doesn’t happen often). His S-break was awesome of course (this reminds me of getting hyped for Mystic Artes in Tales games). Fighting three enforcers at once was kinda nuts, and I loved the remixed enforcer battle theme. And then of course there’s the Loewe battle (I brought Renne and Estelle along for this obviously). I’m sad I had to fight him again… and watch him die again. Please stop bullying me Falcom ;_;. At least Joshua got the chance to give him a proper goodbye, plus Karin’s appearance was placed perfectly (almost missed it). I like to believe these feelings were passed onto the real Loewe. I’m still salty he’s dead, but this lessens the blow a little. Just a little.
Chapter 7: Exploring the Aster house was nice. It was a very comfy and sad place. This is where Kevin dumps the details on Ries, so I suppose I can give my opinion on all the backstory revealed up to here. I loved slowly finding out more info on Kevin throughout the game, and it was difficult to watch since the story makes no attempt to hide the fact that Rufina is dead in the present. The chocolate scene was cute, it was nice seeing them all grow up together, and I
really appreciated the writers for avoiding a cliched and… unnecessary romance/love triangle and kept it purely familial for Kevin’s relationships with both girls. Romantic tragedy is overdone. Kevin’s mother attempting to kill him was messed up (and not unrealistic either :/), and it’s so sad he blamed himself for her suicide. Rufina is so sweet (like your usual died-in-a-flashback character) and I’m sad she was forced to sacrifice herself to save Kevin and Ries’ lives. I liked how they made a point about her not being one to sacrifice herself unless there was no other possibility, it’s just a nice touch.
She also interacted with Loewe and reached a truce with him which immediately puts her up in my book. Kevin punishing himself for Rufina’s death is sad. Everything about Kevin’s story is sad, no melodrama included. As for Rufina being the Lord, well the idea was at the back of my head so I wasn’t hugely surprised. It also didn’t leave any impact on me since I quickly worked out it was just Kevin’s stigma’s copy using her as a mask to manipulate Kevin (Ries seemed to work out it wasn’t her sister immediately but then later starts to believe it is for some reason? That confused me). Ries being dragged to Gehenna was frustrating (talk about breaking your own rules), and I’m happy Kevin jumped in after her.
Gehenna… yikes. This was pretty clearly inspired by religious interpretations of hell, and damn is it messed up. What happens to the people sent her is cruel, no other words for it. The chests all having the default message… true despair. Seeing the bishop behind the Aster House incident and his motive goes to show how much destruction the most minor of things can create. The flesh eating kid was pretty fucked up. I’d like to know
the grandmaster Aidios’ reasoning for this, because sending him to Gehenna seems unfair. Reminds me of Fullmetal Alchemist’s infamous scene. I feel bad for Kevin’s mother since she was screwed over in life and fell victim to the weakness in her heart. I was waiting for Weissman to appear, and he didn’t disappoint with his usual cleverness with words (and failed again due to his purely logical and cynical perspective on humans... aka he's a fucking sociopath). Kevin awakening his light stigma was epic – I love how there’s two sides to it to represent the two sides to his heart. Super epic seeing everyone run in to save the two! Man the sense of unity with the cast is something else. It was great seeing Kevin finally accept the cast, and develop as a character.
Final Chapter: The size of Phantasma is ridiculous. I haven’t seen a map of the Zemurian continent yet (anyone have a good one?), but assuming Liberl is pretty small… wow. Gilbert doing something relevant was a nice surprise. I love the look of the castle from the outside – reminds me of Alice in Wonderland. Splitting everyone up so that nobody is left behind is a cool idea, though I wish the game divided the groups itself to allow for more dialogue (way too many possible combinations to allow for anything substantial on one playthrough, even by this series’ standards). The music for the dungeon is epic (I’d put it up there with FC’s and above SC’s), and I love how all the chests have encouraging messages + thank yous from the staff. The three palette swap bosses weren’t hugely interesting but they were fun to fight. Rufina not being Rufina and actually being the copy of Kevin’s stigma created by the Aurole was unsurprising as I mentioned earlier. Anima is… well I’ll discuss that later, but he looks cool enough. Final boss music was great - this series is really good at using musical motifs across its soundtracks. The final scene with Rufina was nice, and it was sad seeing Ries and Kevin say goodbye to her.
The final goodbye was the best part. Seeing everyone leave was incredibly sad, and I liked how they became more personal as the group shrunk. And wait, are Olivier and Scherazard a thing? This went completely over my head during the game… but it actually makes quite a bit of sense. I’d ship it. I really liked how Celeste mentioned how similar Kloe is to her past self, it explains why their DNA match was so close ontop of them being blood related. Renne’s scene was very sad, the poor girl has been through so much she doesn’t know how to deal with pure kindness. I’m looking forward to seeing her arc resolved in the Crossbell games. Estelle crying created a chain reaction ;_;. I love Estelle, she’s one of the best takes I’ve seen on a hot-blooded shounen protagonist. Oh and when Ries said “aren’t we forgetting someone?” I went into a fit of laughter - I’d also forgotten Gilbert existed until she mentioned that. I wouldn’t say I’m looking forward to seeing him again, but I know it’s inevitable. It was nice seeing Kevin checkup on everyone post-credits, and ask to change his title. I really like Ein from what I’ve seen of her, and I’m assuming she’s going to be relevant in later entries.
Overall: So yeah, the main story was pretty awesome overall. I loved seeing Kevin and Ries develop, and they were great protagonists to follow. Definitely would like to see more appearences from them, and I’ve heard
Crossbell For the ridiculous size of the cast, they were handled fairly well even if they didn’t have too much relevance to the actual plot (if you’ve played Tales of Xillia 2, that’s a good example of doing it all horribly wrong). However I was very disappointed with the antagonistic force. I had my fair share of problems with Weissman being pure evil, but unlike Anima at least he had a personality. Anima is just kinda boring and I’ll probably forget about him quite quickly. The cryptic nonsense he spouts throughout the game is eyerolling, and his goal is… generic. I didn’t like how all the other villains were copies forced to fight, since there’s no agency involved. I feel like Loewe being Schwarzritter had far too little payoff for how much they built it up. Phantasma is also kinda weird - feels jarringly out of place in the Trails universe and unnecessarily tacked on to the Aurole plot. I’m assuming it doesn’t become relevant again. The story also felt far too dragged out in the early-middle chapters, which was disappointing after that amazing prologue.
But all that aside, it was a wonderful goodbye to the series. I only realised afterwards that the goodbyes from the characters were also directed at me. I might not be able to see some of them after this, and I don’t want the journey to end, but the Trails world must move on and Liberl’s story must eventually come to an end. It’s surreal not having anymore Sky games to play, after slowly making my way through them for the past half year (most of that being FC haha). The credits music was by far my favourite out of the trilogy.
The Doors
Now onto the best part of the game – magic sidestory doors! Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed the main story, but the doors were so much better. Basically everything I wanted after SC. I wouldn’t have cared if the whole game was just doors honestly.
Moon Door 1 - Orbal Gear Project: Erica’s hatred for Agate was hilarious. I died when the screen inverted and slowly panned to her when Tita announced Agate would be coming for dinner. Anyway, the main focus was on Tita wanting to reach Renne’s level to catch up to her, and it was really sweet. I like how her parents refused to let their daughter join in on the project at first, and how Tita understood their perspective but eventually convinced them. What a wonderful understanding family <3. Tita’s father is pretty chill, basically the opposite to Erica. I loved his discussion with Agate, always nice to see people clearing up understandings like sane people as opposed to contrived drama. Erica trolling Agate in the experiment was amusing, although I bet she secretly felt bad when he was hurt trying to save Tita. Overall this did wonders for Tita’s character development, and Agate’s to a lesser extent.
Moon Door 2 – Client: Scherazard and Aina backstory! Many Trails characters (especially older ones) have already undergone a significant amount of character development when you meet them, so it was nice to see pre-development Schera. Seeing her constantly terrified of returning to her younger days and how that affected her was very sad, and it’s nice to see she’s moved on in the present and doesn't need that defense mechanism anymore. I’m impressed at how good the writers are at creating realistic characters. Aina ended up being far more interesting than I expected, I’m sad she had to see the ugly side of humans. I was expecting her to give away the inheritance, but it was still a great moment. I already was a big fan of Schera, and this made me love her even more.
Moon Door 3 – Descended Wings: Yay, more Kloe. I loved seeing her first year in the academy, and her identity crisis was interesting. I’m happy Lechter stopped her from distancing herself and gave her the push to make friends with Jill and Hans. Her refusal to go to the Orphanage was understandable, but it’s nice to see she eventually realised going there wasn’t a sign of weakness. Also I keep forgetting she’s an orphan, so I never really considered how much she must relate to the kids at the orphanage. It was lovely seeing Jill come to the orphanage and reach an understanding. Lechter is interesting for how much wiser he is than he acts, and I suspect he’s been through a lot. It was also nice to see an epilogue to this in Star Door 8.
Moon Door 4 – Departure: I was hoping there would be a door for Joshua and Estelle, and I kinda freaked out when I saw a moon door with them on it. I was hoping this would be more of an epilogue to their arcs in FC and SC, but it was even better than I expected. Seeing Joshua so distant as a young kid was too sad, and I admire Estelle’s insane persistence. Joshua looking after the twins was ADORABLE, and it was so sweet seeing him calm them to sleep with his harmonica. It was kinda sad seeing him respond to the mother’s request like it was a mission from Ouroboros – it must have been difficult for him to reintegrate back into a normal everyday life. Estelle’s obsession with bugs was incredibly funny, and I like how Joshua eventually just went with it. It upsets me to think he could’ve left Estelle that long ago… I’m so happy he stayed. Also was nice to see Estelle wasn’t completely oblivious, and just wanted to cheer him up. Estelle is too perfect. I loved the goodbye scene on the ship, it was so cute seeing the twins upset about Joshua leaving. His convo with Cassius was a nice touch (also amusing how Estelle still doesn’t get it).
Moon Door 5 – The Happiness Stone: What the fuck even was this. Actually, let me start with the nice part – it was super cool having Mary as the protagonist (she was my favourite orphanage kid), and I love how obsessed she got with the happiness stone hunt despite being against it at first. I was worried when Polly disappeared, and even more worried when Mary lost her way in Krone Pass. It was a relief seeing the baby dragon help her out, and keep her company. When Mary fell off the broken bridge I completely freaked out, and it was so so SO relieving to see the baby dragon save her. It was great to see Mary ended up completely unharmed, and they were able to give a gift to the matron (that CG was super sweet). And that’s all well and good… but what’s the baby dragon about?! It appears when fog is around, and disappears when the fog is gone. I thought it was an illusion at first, but there’s just too much evidence disproving that. I have no idea what the happiness stone is either, surely the legend isn’t fully real right? Usually these stories end with the lesson that you shouldn’t believe in legends because the present is more important bla bla bla, but this one went in the complete opposite direction at the last second. Also the Arena calls it a younger Ragnard… wut??? This door left me with a lot of questions, and I’m curious to see if later games address it – I mean surely they have to right?
Sun Door 1 – Capua’s Delivery Service: Omfg I hated this minigame, had to go down to easy to barely beat it. Gilbert’s English voice infuriates me now. The story itself was nice, I felt bad for Josette when they lost Joshua’s letter, and their backstory was sad. It was nice to see them get more depth (I remember when they were comedic villains in FC… wow that was a long time ago). Also great to see they actually started a business, and Josette’s crush on Joshua is cute (someone’s built up a harem).
Sun Door 2 – Legendary Angler Estelle: Ok this was pretty funny. I had trouble with Mr Fisher until I searched up a method to steamroll him. I loved how nonsensical and over the top this was, and it was nice seeing that fishing npc woman again (Noiche? Her subplot with her husband was great).
Sun Door 3 – Arena: I’ve already mentioned the younger Ragnard, so only thing to talk about is that hax final round. I’m lucky I was playing on easy, because I’d have to do a crazy amount of prep to win that on harder difficulties. Seriously, Loewe
and Cassius? Talk about broken. Actually this makes me curious about Enforcer I (I heard they appear in CS2), but I guess that’s a while away.
Sun Door 4 – The Casino: I still have yet to read the book for this (only read Carnelia) so I’ll get to that at some point. But yeah, without context this was kinda random but not bad. I found Jack easier to beat than the girl amusingly. Also am I supposed to be the MC here? First person in Trails feels… odd.
Sun Door 5 – Campanella’s Quiz Game: This was fun, though some of the harder questions were BS I doubt even the developers remember. Campanella’s costumes were funny
and cute, and the chibi Weissman on the titlescreen was glorious. I’d like to know what Campanella is doing here, but I’ve learnt you’re better off not questioning him.
Star Door 1 – Julia’s Day Off: Characterization for Julia? I’m in. It was great seeing her worries on how she should serve Klaudia in the future, and I was looking forward to her finally meeting her fan club (which was hilarious). Her discussion with Mueller was great
I’d ship it and it was nice seeing them compare Oliviert and Klaudia. Her decision to serve her from afar was sweet, and that tea scene was awwwwww. I honestly was never too invested in Julia, but this completely changed that.
Star Door 2 – The Salt Pale: Incredibly interesting info. I’m not sure what the Salt Pale was, but I don’t think Ouroboros was behind it. I’m assuming this is going to be revealed later in the series. The amount of people that died from this was surprising. It’s interesting to hear that both the Northern Jaegers and Weissman experienced this incident, which might explain their cooperation. Kinda messed up to have Weissman killed by the same thing that killed his family, but not entirely undeserved either.
Star Door 3 – The Banquet: I immediately knew what this was when I saw which characters I needed. Joshua talking with everyone and tying up loose ends was exactly what I needed
plus having his sexy af SC portrait back was ahhhhh. Estelle and Josette competing over food was amazing – I love how they immediately shut Joshua down when he tries to break them up. It was cute how oblivious Joshua was to Kloe’s feelings, I laughed when he thought she was angry. I’m surprised at but proud of her for straight up confessing, thought she might be vague and confuse Joshua but I guess the writers are better than that. Of course Joshua immediately shuts her down (in the nicest way possible <3), and she’s finally able to move on. Her mean-spirited teasing was funny, and Estelle having no idea what to do with herself when she realises what’s going on was cute. Usually love triangles are used by incompetent writers to create contrived drama, so seeing one where all characters involved resolve it normally and all of them grow from the experience is just… magnificent. Falcom’s writing team needs to infiltrate almost every writing team on the planet and teach them to git gud.
Star Door 4 – Journey’s End: I wasn’t completely satisfied with Kilika being a stone cold lady who doesn’t give a damn, so it was nice to see her humanized more. Seeing her struggle with a decision was rare considering her insane mental strength, and it was nice seeing Zin push her over the edge. Her story on travelling aimlessly to find a way to use the dojo’s technique without fighting was interesting, wouldn’t mind a spinoff of that. Now that I think about it, I really liked Kilika – looking forward to seeing her in the eventual Calvard arc. Actually add Cochrane to that list, she’s quite charismatic.
Star Door 5 – Swordsmanship: Anelace gets a door to herself, while Kurt and Grant only appear as side characters in one, and Carna doesn’t appear in any? Seems legit. Anyway it was nice finding out about why she uses the sword and about her grandfather, and I loved her conversation with Cassius, as well as her fight with Richard. She grew on me a lot with the prologue to SC, so I’m happy she’s getting development. Would like to see her grandfather too, he seems like an interesting character.
Star Door 6 – Training, Agate-Style: I’m not really the biggest fan of these guys, but it was nice to see them improve their teamwork. Rocco is such a tsundere. Hope they become senior bracers eventually.
Star Door 7 – The Epstein Foundation: More interesting info. Nice to hear where Professor Russel came from, and this explains why Liberl is more technologically advanced than other nations. I’m looking forward to seeing the other two in the future.
Star Door 8 – Return to the Empire: Wow, this one ended up being crazier than I expected. Feels like the prelude to Cold Steel. This does a fantastic job at illustrating how terrifying Osborne is – I definitely wasn’t expecting him to end his trip out of the blue and travel to Grancel. His conversation with Oliviert was cool, I like how they both slowly dropped the formalities and became more blunt as it went on. Queen Alicia handled the situation scarily well, but that’s the queen for you. I feel kinda bad for the ambassador, poor guy. Lechter become a secretary of Osborne was surprising – I was even more surprised when they both completely dropped formalities when talking to each other on the airship (I have my suspicions on this and I’ll talk more about it in Star Door 14). I was going to get annoyed at Lechter for pretending not to know Kloe, but I realised he was messing around when he gave her that ridiculous name. Lechter of course didn’t explain the full details, and instead encouraged Kloe which he’s always good at. The party speculate that he may have been spying on Liberl for Erebonia at the time, but I’m not completely sure that they’re correct here. Anyway, unlike Weissman and Anima, Osborne seems like the kind of villain I love (revolutionary extremist with good intentions but sketchy methods? Count me in!), and I’m excited to see more of him in Cold Steel.
Star Door 9 – Like a Mother: This was a funny misunderstanding. Maybelle’s worrying over Lila not telling her about her new ‘boyfriend’, hiring Anelace to investigate him (and get the complete wrong impression), and then thinking Lila is suddenly going to marry him was a glorious chain of events. I’m impressed at how well Lila handled it. I did the sidequest about Lila’s family in SC, so I hope they eventually get (or got) the chance to visit them. Plz stop being a workaholic Maybelle
Star Door 10 – Gordias-Class Experiment Report: Most of this kinda went over my head, but it was interesting seeing how Renne acquired Pater-Mater. Thankfully she didn’t end up like those other poor test subjects (I hope they weren’t forced into it). I’m not sure whether Professor Novartis is one of the professors from the Epstein Foundation, but I suspect he’s… well I’ll get to that in Star Door 14.
Star Door 11 – Phantom Thief B Report: Good to see the Erebonian intelligence division is looking into this. His ideal to steal things that have their value taken for granted is interesting, though I’m a little worried about this lady he’s eloped with (please tell me it’s consensual -__-). I assume Y and Z can be safely ignored and X is the true answer. Interesting backstory, and good explanation for why he’s so… ‘unique’. I feel like we’re not done with him yet.
Star Door 12 – I Accept Your Request: Great to see what Richard and Kanone are up to! An intellegence business for the public is really cool, and I’m guessing he’ll show up later (Calvard arc?). It’s nice to see Kanone finally happy with her situation. His meeting with the former-intelligence member was interesting, and it’s good to see he isn’t completely removed from facing consequences (good world building). Unlike Cassius I don’t think he’ll join the army ever again – that path doesn’t seem to work for him based on how he still doesn’t fully regret the coup detat he caused.
Star Door 13 – Assault on the Imperial Guilds: Oh my, Cassius has a stalking club. In all seriousness, cool to see what he was doing during FC. His plan to take down Jester (I think that was the name) was clever, and it’s nice to see the Empire is reasonable enough to help out. The intelligence division raising him to the highest threat level is unsurprising, Cassius is a horrifying enemy to face. I wonder what they’d think of the Grandmaster. Really looking forward to seeing more of the intelligence division in Cold Steel.
Star Door 15 – Paradise: I’m sure at least some of you skipped to this, and welp,
it would be my pleasure. Putting this door at the bottom of The Abyss was fitting, because holy shit this was by far the most fucked up thing I’ve seen in this series. When I heard about how dark Renne’s backstory was, I thought my expectations were fucked up enough, but apparently not. This door was far too well-written for its own good – the use of an unreliable narrator was very immersive and drags you in screaming and kicking whether you like it or not. It was very disturbing seeing what was happening to the kids, and the irony of ‘Paradise’ was immediately clear (the implications were more frighteningly obvious than I expected). Beating up a young meek boy, older men committing sexual acts of depravity on a polite young girl, the strong boy being the most popular… ‘fucking disgusting’ doesn’t even begin to describe this. Seeing them all slowly break and disappear was awful, and I was worried Renne would eventually have to go. I assumed the others were going even when she got called out, though I was kinda confused about how they were getting away with that (maybe the sick bastards weren’t paying attention to their faces?). Cross taking on every 'job' and slowly growing insane, taking it out on Renne, was horrible. And then Renne finally had to go – this is when I thought the true horror of this story would begin. Just as I assumed, the other kids seemed to have gone instead of Renne, but surely Renne looks completely different to them. How could they assume they all were Renne? Oh wow, Loewe and Joshua are here already, thank goodness this story didn’t go as badly as I thought it…
The facade of Renne’s unreliable narration then breaks, and the truth is revealed. I felt legitimately sick when I saw the ‘crosses’ on Renne’s body and realised the implications. I was confused when it repeated all the dialogue each kid spoke with ‘~Renne’ at the end… but holy fuck. She was really in the room all alone, isolated from any other kids, and created four fake personalities to not go insane from the constant molesting, beating and rape. They withered away due to not being able to take the pain, and she held onto Cross the longest, etching him into her very flesh. Cross wanted Renne to kill him because he was enduring all the pain himself, as a fictional persona… wow. Just wow. I can guess what the ‘syrup’ was, but I’d honestly rather not talk about it. Renne’s brain is absolutely insane to be able to create so many fake personas to transfer her suffering onto – I feel like most people could only mentally distance themselves from what’s happening to their body at best.
I watched the Beta version of the door, and it’s kinda dry and a disrespectful way to handle the topic, so I’m happy they heavily changed it. I suppose there were kids in other rooms based on what’s said there… and the fact we never hear about them has some sad implications. I actually really respect Falcom for bringing up such a heavy topic like child trafficking/prostitution, because as sickening as it is, this happens in real life all the time. Rather than pretending it never happens, as painful as it is, it’s better that people are aware of the horrific situations some children are forced into – it’s reality. I’m disappointed to hear that other versions try and censor it, but I suppose Falcom didn’t have a choice considering Sony’s platforms would have stricter regulations.
I did hear something about her parents [which I think is a Zero spoiler so I’ll mark it,]
that they thought she was dead. This is far more sympathetic, and I’m looking forward to getting a more detailed explanation in Zero. Star Door 14 – Phantasmal Blaze: Phew, something less depressing. Now this one was hype! I played with voices, so I imagine I got a fair bit more info from this door than people who didn’t. Blueblanc and Walter showing respect to Loewe and wondering about Renne & Luciora’s fates was nice, I love villain camaraderie. I’m pretty sure Luciora is alive now. It was hilarious how they didn’t mention Weissman at all – makes sense they didn’t care for him honestly, he was a biiiiiit sociopathic. Campanella bullying the soldiers to get through was amusing, but I definitely wasn’t expecting him to jump right into a meeting with all the Anguis and the Grandmaster. I knew he was important within Ouroboros, but wow.
Now about the Anguis. Firstly, I suspect Professor Novartis is the 6th Anguis, based on how he cares about Pater-Mater and seems to have a major influence over the thirteen factories. Also he’s a professor… so yeah. Secondly I suspect 4th Anguis is Lechter – they both have similar speaking styles, and while the EVO voice is a little different, from what I’ve heard it’s not
too reliable so I’ll take it with a grain of salt and focus more on what’s being said. If I were to guess based on voice I’d say the 1st Anguis, but his speaking style is very different. I’m assuming the 7th Anguis is the one shown in Loewe Monogatari? Have yet to read it but I might now, curious in finding more about her. Also the grandmaster… wow it’s almost like she’s screaming "I’m Aidios!". Not sure how accurate her voice is (sounds kinda… cutesy), but she certainly sounds benevolent and surprisingly respectful. I like how Weissman is basically a joke among them – even the grandmaster seems concerned about his methods (and blames herself, how noble of you Aidios). In all seriousness I’d prefer it wasn’t Aidios since that’s a big jrpg trope and would be a little obvious, but I guess it could work. No clue who the other Anguis could be, but I’ve heard the 2nd is revealed so interested in meeting her.
Anyway, phew, that’s everything I wanted to say. Oh actually not quite: the soundtrack was incredible, and 'Overdosing Heavenly Bliss' is glorious. Thank you if you managed to read everything, or at least some of it. I’ll probably read Loewe Monogatari soon since I need my Loewe fix, and take a break until Geofront’s editing of Zero is done. A few questions:
- Does the PC version of Zero have a turbo mode? I mean I probably could survive without it, but… it wouldn’t be easy
- There seems to be both a Japanese and Chinese PC version of Zero, but only a Chinese version of Ao. Is there any difference between these?
- Is there a good non-spoilery map of Zemuria?
- When will Cold Steel 3 come out in- kidding kidding, hopefully an announcement isn’t too far away
Tl;dr: Main story is great, doors are amazing, great epilogue to wrap up the trilogy, and Star Door 15 is pure despair.
