Same here. When this song played it was ONLY because something seriously crazy/epic was going down making it that much more amazing. I think it only plays three times, actually. Prologue, The REAL prologue events, and the finale.
There's no false and true Garrelia Fortress events. The theory is that the event that affected Crossbell during Ao affected Garelia Fortress during Cold Steel 1.
@@LeonGun8 You mean in a parallel dimension Orchis Tower was destroyed by the cannons? That explains the abscence of the two new classmates in the prologue.
Must admit the Prologue does a god job at hyping you up, if the game was starting directly with the Main Protagonist arriving at school stuff I'm not sure I would have been as much interest.
I’m glad I went through the prologue, it seems like you can’t get back to the prologue until at least 60 hours into the game, (although I’m 70 hours into the game).
@@milesshaw9059 Took me around 50 hours during my first playthrough (granted I was playing on easy difficulty more to enjoy the story) and around 65 on the second (on normal difficulty, 100%'ing everything as I go)
With the pacing of a trails game(cs1 being my first after googling persona clones lol), a prologue is super effective with drawing me in, and often I'm against prologues in media res 😂
When this is literally the first track you hear when you click on ''new game'', you know the game is not about to screw around. The stort on the first 2 main chapters is going slowly, but as soon as you reach the Nord Highlands on chapter 3, the story picks up VERY quickly.
@@nesoukkefka1741 After playing Sky SC and having Ouroboros set up as a villainous group with goals beyond anything we can possibly guess, the incredibly binary Imperial Liberation Front felt like small villains designed to fulfill the position of antagonists in Cold Steel. After having played the whole game, as well as 2, I 100% no longer feel that way, but I agree that chapter 4 is also when the game picked up for me for those reasons.
@@GalanOfTruth I think we should see Ouroboros more as the antagonist of the whole series, and the Imperial Liberation Front as the villains of this arc (at least this part of this arc) specifically, yep they are small villain on the whole part of this world, but for this arc at the point of the story at Chapter 4, from the perspective of the main characters they do a good job as villain to show us that they mean buisness (which was their main goal after all), which I believe is why the story pick up at chapter 4 and even more in chapter 5 the threat is really establish (and they even mention a potential connexion with Ouroboros in chapter 5) and it is no joke for our main characters.
Hope this track appeared and got remixed in the sequels as I'm trying to play this series in chronological order (a working adult in the pandemic makes it hard to consume jrpgs xD tho now I'm really into the few I give my time to like this first game, hopefully the series keep. Getting better and better
Well, Elliot is the second smallest member of class VII, with only Fie being smaller (but given she's 2 years younget than the rest of the crew, that's hardly surprising)
Who are those 5 people who disliked this video? 🤔only reason I can think of is because it isn’t long enough 😂🤷🏻♂️ I could listen to this piece of music all day.
at the time we all hearing this song,that should be the time for make new changes and take a new way to make the things better, a way that no longer the past will haunt you, a way to redeem what you have done and give to everbody what you really are made for
@@seanrhodes8817 They were (And i'm pretty sure they had summer uniform on at that point too) when you return to were the prologue started, Crow and Millium is with Class VII

found this game on accident, and a lucky accident it was, loved it
When I heard this song in the prologue I fell in love with this game.
That and Sara's one liners.

and when the capital is attacked in chap 5 and you save Machias' dad

The song that started my love for The Legend of Heroes series
I played the Gagharv Trilogy on PSP, and the 3rd game had fantastic music.
Such an epic track it took up 2 tracks!
- Atrocious Raid
- Risking Everything, Here We Stand
It really kicked in how epic this tune is after the event in Heimdallr
Falcom you are the best!
The prologue sold this game for me, and rean's scream at the end ruined me lol because I couldn't wait to get to that point to find out what happened.
Must admit the Prologue does a god job at hyping you up, if the game was starting directly with the Main Protagonist arriving at school stuff I'm not sure I would have been as much interest.
I admit that I wouldn't be so interested if it weren't for the prologue and the music.

This game both starts and ends with all hell breaking loose, a common trait for cold steel games lol.
@@GalanOfTruth
ESPECIALLY 3
For me the story really picked up at chapter 4

I kinda low key wished each cold steel game had a variation of this track(but definitely not the same lol)
Sara: My turn!
Lol she sounds like she's holding her nose saying "my turn".
Me: okay bed time :)
My Brain: "hums the opening"
I can vouch for this
I bought this game after finishing zero. My expectations have been met.
They should of played this version in cold steel 4.
Nah
@@omensoffate *Cough cough*
I agree
"OK! Burning daylight!"
It’s actually: OK, we’re burning daylight!

Look forward to Cold Steel 4
don't forget trails in the sky xd n crossbell
@@nicogalax xd?
Nothing nothing, trails in the sky will always be the best
I feel you. I'm currently in college and there's times where all I get to play are dialogue cut scenes lol.
Lmao, Elliot is soo tiny in this picture, that it looks like Gaius is his dad or something.

Accidentally played this at half the speed than now on 75% speed and it don't sound half bad lol
Has a Skies of Arkadia vibe but more epic sounding.

Care to get the other boss themes?
I don't see the difference in this and risking everything we stand, or whatever that other track was called, but still both are majorly kickass
Different intros, but both awesome
Tbh.. I really hate how they hided Crow and Millium in the prologue, i know it's to prevent spoilers, but still.
Were Crow and Millium even in the party at that point in the game? I thought they joined Class VII after that?
@@seanrhodes8817 They were (And i'm pretty sure they had summer uniform on at that point too) when you return to were the prologue started, Crow and Millium is with Class VII
@@dexterdiolola3318 Still though.
Its because of the influence of events in crossbell (try to play zero and ao no kiseki)
@@SuperZeroman123 they did exactly the same thing with Aurelia and Angelica in the prologue of ToCS3
