As a newcomer to the Trails series, which one should I start with? I know there are tons of them, but I'm not sure which one to really start with.

@[email protected] The general consensus is, if you don’t start at the very beginning with the Sky trilogy, then start at a new arc, so Zero or Cold Steel 1 or Daybreak!
Daybreak is the newest and most modern. I started there and absolutely loved it!!! https://www.reddit.com/r/JRPG/s/KLvQoRuXGE
I’m on Switch, so my options are limited so went to Zero from there and 💕 and now I’m on Azure which plays like part 2 to Zero.
Thanks!
@[email protected] @[email protected] yes, always start at the beginning of any at and you will be fine! There are always mild (sometimes heavy) spoilers in some of these games related to other arcs, but I wouldn't worry too much about them.
Trails in the Sky is, to methe best place to start since it's light on politics and background, but a wonderful adventure and introduction to the world
@[email protected] @[email protected] I've got a whole different problem. We only have Switches. So the Sky trilogy isn't available. Which has been fine.
BUT....... it also means after Azure, I'll have to skip Cold Steel 1 & 2 and go straight to 3 which, granted, seems to have a soft reboot from 1 & 2, but that's a lot of character & world building I'm going to miss out on.
Sad Panda.
@[email protected] @[email protected] Sky will at least get a Remake next year... Too bad about Cold Steel tho!
@[email protected] @[email protected] Yeah. By the time we get there, I’m thinking I’ll have a new handheld device to game with and it will all be a non-issue.
