Damn, I really need to stop letting how good Legend of Mana was convince me to give Squenix more chances on this series. But... this trailer does look very fun, kind if mix of the Tales series combat with Mana themes!

Yea I keep hoping for a 3D Chrono Trigger remake, but square keeps putting out garbage instead of revamping one of their greatest IPs.

I played Trials of Mana (2020) and that game was... Pretty bad. I'm skeptical, but this does look pretty good.

Yea, eventually the sour smell of garbage overwhelms the sweet taste of member berries.

Unlike many others here, I did enjoy Trials of Mana, so I am looking forward to this one. Looks amazing!

...except for that generic shonen hero. I am so done with games with generic shonen mc. I get that the new generation has to start somewhere, but it'd be nice to see more variaty in mc characters. Or on the very least let us create our own.

I’m basically a grumpy old man when it comes to the Trails series. First pair of games had a ditzy young girl with a staff as their lead, and then every other one has had self-insert harem-leading male characters, usually wielding a sword.

I was even upset at Hero getting into SSB. I’m sure Dragon Quest has its cool character designs, but NodsSilently isn’t one of them.

Completely intentional; you have no proof it was otherwise :P

We need to have an ATM Machine as a protagonist.

Trials and Children of Mana makes me dubious that this is going to be any good.
