    @[email protected] I want more JRPGs that keep that local scope - that, “wow we gotta stop this bad thing from happening in our country” but not “I guess we have to save the world”.

    I also loved how the series broke expectations by e.g. not letting you rummage though people’s houses for stuff, since unlike every other JRPG protag, you can’t steal.

      @[email protected] I love it! Trails is so incredibly thoughtful. Even when the stakes are through the roof, it’s still generally for city-state or country we are in.

      I have to imagine when the series begins to wrap up, fucking Ouroboros will do something that threatens all of Zemuria or the planet, that all our heroes across all countries will need to work together to defeat.

      But we got time before that… The Calvard story isn’t done yet!
