PSU: "The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel 3 is not a perfect game, marred by its pacing, spontaneous voiceovers, and heavy-handed use of anime tropes along the way. That aside, the additions of game speed increase on top of more strategic options in combat and intriguing characters make this entry of the franchise a rewarding one, presenting wonderful payoffs for those invested in the journey. Even still, newcomers receive enough organic context and subtext along the way to still feel fulfilled as the journey progresses. Few RPG franchises, especially ones this lengthy, can provide a starting point in the middle of the series, and Cold Steel 3 finds a way."
TSA's Miguel argues why you need to play Trails of Cold Steel 3 and 4 now.
Great series I'd encourage people to try out, but I'm not sure you should start with 3.
I've finally got the whole series on ps4/ps5 besides the sky triology. I'm going to play the sky games on steam and move onto the Playstation ones. I've been dying to get into it.
I was going to but 3 and 4 on PS4 but when I read they both were hitting PS5 I just waited. My problem is I have a shit load of games I have to work on.
my issue is that they are still very expensive games and those games are a commitment ha.

Available now on PS5!
I own these games for PS4 but getting this version for PS5 anyway because I love the series. I preordered it at least 6 months ago so I wouldn’t forget. Hopefully they port the first 2 games together next.
NIS Europe has a pretty neat box: https://store.nisaeurope.co...
I already own them on PS4 as well, otherwise I'd get the PS5 version for sure.
