About Fie or the cold steel group having so many connections, I feel like after 5 whole games you would have ended up knowing nearly everybody important that was part of those games. Especially when considering the main cast from liberl and crossbell also joined them, and thus their connections also mixed together.
The Fie and Feri conection is explained the 1st time their met. They only have Aida as conection, and as long as Feri knows about Fie. Fie dosen't really know about Feri untill Aida's death and Fie coming to Calvard. That's way in the start, they are a little distant of each other. They still knowing each other, that's the strang part. Ss for Nina, I know you Falkon, that's not only a acting, that's Nina real feelings too
Regarding the npcs I think its because maybe the camera angle and placement Crossbell probably has quite a number of npcs, here or there And the whole academy thing in cs1234 Sky is different since the location keeps changing, although theres a small handful The other one is also quantity I guess Its kinda funny since estelle and joshua went straight to bracers, while van went to academy. The others uhh Like I dont even want to think about it I havent looked at the cast list yet since Im only planning on doing so after the game is over Its kinda whatever really, its not like the cast here is small either, or any of the games really The other day I was thinking, all the other games have had a reveal twist villain and I honestly cant think of anyone who would fit that. Maybe there isnt or maybe im just dumb or complacent (surely it cant be nina right or I dunno) Yeah the fie and feri thing is just overly contrived. They did cram other references here and there as well, a little bit Like rixia and judith and whatever is going on with "the gardens" and the cult and ouroboros really makes me go like "really" And who knows what the church is cooking up. The whole thing with zeman uh...like sheesh
Ok so aside from rixia and the others, the characters that we actually know are Fie, zin, renne In zin's case its been so long, I dunno if its just me the feeling is that zin is like a totally different character since we last saw him in sky Here its really weird since the parallel with van and what not Fie. For starters it really feels like falcom tried really hard to not bring back anyone. And then fie is here for some reason, which is an entire topic in itself. Sort of Otherwise like yeah I dont think theres much, the story has tried really hard to pretend that erebonia, crossbell, liberl dont exist Renne too also falcom has been like trolling us a bit maybe since we also see here and at the same time shes kinda just not really doing anything. Same could be said for zin and fie as well I guess Also I was reminded that kilika is somewhere here too, and we did see her a bit. Not really much to say Rixia has had even less screentime soo The games general concept is about the same, like estelle and joshua met a whole bunch of people as well. Crossbell was somewhat self contained. Erebona is definitely a thing (we had like what forty people? or was it 50 i los count) Here there are elements of it as well, its actually kinda curious if we look at everyone Like just van for example, orphan from oracion (actually now that I think about it I wonder if his parents have any significance) Then he went to the academy in the capital, and then he went to train at longlai
As a whole its still a bit early to say, though most of the game is over already Like chapter 5 definitely felt like it ended really oddly, although thats almost certainly intentional There's things here and there for sure. Like the gang started with just van and agnes, then feri, then aaron, then risette, then quatre, then suddenly judith and zeman Meanwhile elaine is still uh A few other aspects Like it feels oddly too big and too small, too fast perhaps and too slow maybe Admittedly that could also apply to basically every game It does feel like in trying to fix their mistakes from the other games they ended up causing other problems, which is something And im also personally not a big fan of the whole bomb thing, still remains to be seen what happens in the remaining parts of the game to see the developments Also erebonia, crossbell, liberl, like its understandable and yet it feels like they tried a bit too hard They deliberately avoided altair, then aside from anchorville meseldam and who knows. Also the capital something Anyway Fie scene uhh about as you expect. To be honest you would half expect zephyr to have show up, I dunno Nina scene quite a lot of words huh
While the writing is getting i think the fact that van isn’t a teenager but a grown man with an unusual job makes things easier to accept. He’s already been around by the time we jump in it makes sense he has a lot of connections.

Aye I think that's the conclusion I came to that Fie is just that connection to the CS side of things so there's just loads of connections as a result
The Fie and Feri conection is explained the 1st time their met.
They only have Aida as conection, and as long as Feri knows about Fie. Fie dosen't really know about Feri untill Aida's death and Fie coming to Calvard.

They still knowing each other, that's the strang part.
Ss for Nina, I know you Falkon, that's not only a acting, that's Nina real feelings too
The connection events here were quite nice.
The Florida Man Is Always Watching
Is there any other games out there that have NPCs like the Trails series?
Baldur's Gate 3 seems to be one!
Memento Hamel
Regarding the npcs I think its because maybe the camera angle and placement
Crossbell probably has quite a number of npcs, here or there
And the whole academy thing in cs1234
Sky is different since the location keeps changing, although theres a small handful
The other one is also quantity I guess
Its kinda funny since estelle and joshua went straight to bracers, while van went to academy. The others uhh

Meanwhile elaine is still uh
A few other aspects
Like it feels oddly too big and too small, too fast perhaps and too slow maybe
Admittedly that could also apply to basically every game
It does feel like in trying to fix their mistakes from the other games they ended up causing other problems, which is something
And im also personally not a big fan of the whole bomb thing, still remains to be seen what happens in the remaining parts of the game to see the developments
Also erebonia, crossbell, liberl, like its understandable and yet it feels like they tried a bit too hard
They deliberately avoided altair, then aside from anchorville meseldam and who knows. Also the capital something
Anyway
Fie scene uhh about as you expect. To be honest you would half expect zephyr to have show up, I dunno
Nina scene quite a lot of words huh
