A game of two halves but still enjoyable
Recently I've been enjoying old games and Trails, having never even heard of it before, was the first one from GOG that I decided to purchase. It's an enjoyable classic-feeling JRPG with the anime esque character arts and dialogue, but that there, is where the problem is for me. It's apparently a popular game for its hulking amount of dialogue and I can kind of understand that. While I haven't ran around the game world talking to every NPC there is and just following the story line, I do feel a bit overwhelmed by the amount of stuff to read in one go - especially when I just want to progress with the story. It finds a way to get under your skin and irritate you quite quickly if you're not the type of person to get into reading. It is particularly overwhelming at the beginning of the game where the player must absorb a plethora of information regarding the battle system, game world and characters. Though, after a few hours, the player does begin to make sense of it all. Another bad point is the game's repetition. The music, while enjoyable and very fitting for its genre and tone, repeats itself over and over. Similarly, the battle system is somewhat repetitive. With that said, the game does feature some very artistic world building that accompanies some rather cleverly thought-out character personalities and their own personal histories. Further, Trails has a way of sucking you in so even when you have to tab out and look at Facebook for a little while because you've grown bored of all the brown-nosing chatter that can't be skipped, it will still draw you back to finish the otherwise charming story, and help these appealing characters you've fallen in love with. If you do decide to stick with it after the first couple of hours, you can find yourself spending a good long while being entertained by this delightful game.
