Re: Trails In The Sky 2nd Chapter Scheduled For 2026 Release

@The_Jobbo I agree with you. The game is only about doing the average tasks and when something serious finally happens, 90% of the game is already gone. I am very disappointed with the game but I also think that I have to play the whole trilogy to see the full picture so I will do that.
This was my first entry in the series.

Re: Nintendo Sends Out Second Game-Key Card & Physical Game Survey

Tainaru

I filled the survey 2 days ago in favor of physical games.
I do not see a problem in digital games nor game key cards.

I see a problem in GKC replacing physical games entirely.
Until recently, Nintendo (Switch in general) had great collection of physical games, it never stopped during all those years. But suddenly this option is gone. Being a physical game collector myself, it's like Nintendo took every joy of collecting and playing their games from me.

I had maybe around 60% of the rare blades in XC2 during my first run.

But in NG+, I found really fast way to collect them all.

First, I had nearly 20 legendary core crystals previously collected.
Then, I turned off automatic saving on my Switch and I saved my save file only manually to cloud. I saved the game and uploaded the save to cloud.
I used the legendary cores and when I was not satisfied with the number of attempts, I deleted my save and downloaded it back from cloud. I repeated this process with saves and uploads every time I pulled some rare blade, and also deleted it again many times. Even then, it took me some time to get Kos-mos but I completed them all in 1-2 hours or so (including those from Torna).
Then I went and filled all the nodes on every blade lol. That was much more time consuming.

It seems to me that the "dark mythology" was maybe originally planned for Legends Arceus and later scrapped (ghost Typhlosion + Arceus lore + shapeshifting + other dark PLA stuff like hisuian ghost Zoroark, etc). My guess is that someone probably took the homework too seriously in tone.
