A remaster of The Legend of Heroes: Zero no Kiseki
The Legend of Heroes: Trails from Zero is the fourth installment in the main Trails series, serving as a direct sequel to the events of the Liberl arc and the beginning to the Crossbell arc.

The four form the Special Support Section, a newly formed department of the Crossbell police in a city-state located between two great powers fighting for control over it.

Started of real slow but its starting to pick up in chapter 2. The combat is super interesting with a lot of options and strategies. The city feels very alive with npcs showing up in random spots and having different dialogue even when they're not relevant to a chapter.
This one was a fantastic ride all the way through. You would think that the smaller scale would hamper the quality and enjoyment compared to the original trilogy, but the focused approach ended up working perfectly for this title.
By the end of the game I was super invested in the smaller party and all of Crossbell and each of its relevant citizens. Not having to deal with super dense world building and caring more about the fantastic party you are playing as (including their interpersonal relationships such as ElliexLloyd) was the right call for this one. Best title of this series i have played...so far.

I feel weird about this game, its very good and has a great cast of characters but I guess I just expected more after loving the Sky trilogy. Don't get me wrong this is a great game but I found myself having long breaks due to the story not really picking up until over halfway into the game. I hear great things about Azure so im definitely looking forward to jumping into that one.
Slowly but surely Zemuria is becoming one of my favorite worlds to be a part of.
Zero doesn’t hit the same highs as the sky trilogy, but that’s because it’s really only half a story. It’s clearly not done and while that can make the experience drag from time to time, often lacking interesting conflict, some good character moments and a wonderful conclusion to a plot line from the sky trilogy lead the experience to be just as meaningful and I’m just as here for it.
The combat hasn’t changed much which I’ve always found to be just…fine, but magics a bit stronger this time in a more meaningful way and doing side quests is still really fun
Of course if you’re trying to get all the missables in this game without a guide then this game is terrible. One of the meanest games ever. Actively doesn’t want you to find side quests and story books -67/10
Anyways see ya in Azure
P.S always examine chests twice. This is mandatory

Fell in love with the SSS, this series gets me hooked further with each game.
This was amazing got to say Crossbell felt small but it was fun getting use to it and having 4 party members throughout most of the game felt good because I got to know all 4 of them in their gameplay and backstory I love Lloyd, Elie, Tio, and Randy. Combat also got a major improvement but still feels a bit slow but fast mode always comes in handy and I love the combo crafts attacks which makes battles feel more snappy and quick. Welp on to Azure now
