Note for newcomers to series

First of all, if you are just checking out this game and have never heard of The Legend of Heroes series, note that this is the 6th game in The Legend of Heroes saga (first in this arc)
set on the continent Zemuria. The series currently consists of 3 arcs, each arc set in its own country. This is the latest (3rd) arc which is set in the country Erebonia,
the previous (2nd) arc which is set in Crossbell runs simultaneously to this one, and as of the time of writing has not been officially localized (yet?). If this is the first time seeing this series I would strongly recommend to consider playing
the first arc (Liberl) first, as events in this game are directly based on stuff that has happened in the past.

The first game can be found on steam click here

Even if you haven't played the first arc you can still enjoy and understand most of the story, but the interconnectedness of this series is one of its strongest points.

Story

The game follows the students of the special class VII at the Thors Academy in Erebonia through the eyes of our protagonist Rean Schwarzer.
Class VII has a special curriculum that allows them to go on field trips throughout Erebonia. The game has a very Persona vibe.

Since this is the first game in the arc expect a lot of world building in this one, the story moves very slowly but it allows for you to learn about this country, its problems and its people.
For me one of the best things is the large amount of npc dialogue available in the game, after almost ever game event npc dialogue changes and if you have the time to listen the npc dialogue can even foreshadow some plot twists.
The strong point of this game and this series in general is the world building, npc's have their little side stories that you can follow throughout the game, if you only take the time to talk to them.
There is the butler that is searching for a missing woman, learning more about teachers and students through talking with their family members and most minor characters on the campus have their own little arcs that you can choose to enjoy.
If you've played the earlier games you might just meet a few npcs who have come to this country all the way from Liberl.

While the story is quite slow it ends on a high point and there might be a few twists and turns you won't see coming.

Gameplay

Very similar to earlier Legend of Heroes games, you have your familiar arts and crafts. Orbments have been simplified a bit, you no longer have to accumulate your sepiths to get arts.
They are now inherit to the orbments themselves. New also are the ARCUS units Class VII uses, it allows them to us a ``master quartz'' which gives special bonusses and spells.
Also new is the inclusion of ``combat links'' class members can assist each other when you hit the enemy weak points.
You can socialize with your class members to raise their link level on the free days (think Danganronpa's free time).

You'll be doing quests around the campus and on the field trip locations each month, many which are optional and some are hidden as well. Optional quests are pretty easy this time around but never did I feel that I didn't want to do any of them.

I played through the game on normal and never did I have a problem with the combat, it might've been a bit too easy as most monsters (and some bosses) can be killed with craft spam. I barely used arts, only for healing and speed boosts.

Playtime was 114 hours.

Side Activities

There is cooking and fishing to enjoy, both are pretty easy to 100% but you might still want to use a walkthrough to make sure you don't miss anything, like the chapters of the new book Red Moon Rose.

Music

The music is very good, like all Falcom games. Check this track that plays during the opening and later in the game.

Port

The pc port is very well done, I've had 60 fps throughout and the including of the turbo button is one of the best modern addition to jrpgs, as it allows to cut down on time spent walking around and combat. I did have two crashes (in 114 hours) towards the final chapter, but none were very major (thanks turbo button).

tl;dr Very good game, very good port, very good story, please play Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky before this at least
