    The intricacy of Trails rivals most gaming series you’ll find out there, and in a personal sense, Azure demonstrates that even if it stumbles with delivery, it still manages to comprise an unforgettable experience.

    If you love fantasy worldbuilding, sidequests, and worlds you can get lost in, you will love this game. If not, you probably won’t get the appeal. Either way, play Trails from Zero first and then come back. Trails to Azure will be waiting.

    Mediocre weeb trash with appallingly bad graphics, very boring mechanics, and an incredibly bad story.

Even if the game had been released over 20 years ago on the PS1 it would've been lackluster. Full Review »

    another falcom masterpice, finally comes in english for us to enjoy

    Story 10/10 breathtaking had tears in eye at times.
    Music 10/10 stopped playing or paused dialog at times just to enjoy it
    Combat 8/10 easy, and easy to abuse. You can die before you can act if rng gets bad and enemy instant cast spell that hits all with instant death or instant cast on the roulette, this only happened once though.
    Visuals 6/10 dated they could have done more, some simple post processing ao shadows and updated textures is not that much of a hassle, as even modders do that. its saved by amazing art and insane attention to detail, world is very cohesive and seams real, with stores and dungeons full of small details that immerse you, a masterpiece of an rpg and a must for any fan.
