Il 14 Febbraio Trails of Cold Steel II arriverà su Steam/GOG, grazie allo sforzo congiunto di XSEED e Durante, il noto modder/sviluppatore; esattamente come il primo, anche questo ha il “Durante Seal of Quality”, per così dire: una marea di miglioramenti tecnici che lo rendono 600 volte migliore della versione PS3.
Pubblico la lista delle novità nei commenti; qui mi limito a citare i 60 fps, il supporto ultra wide ed il magnifico instant resume per la versione Steam (ci sta un video sul tubo, se avete un SSD è davvero instant).
Il gioco ha un tool di configurazione completo (sviluppato dallo stesso Durante) che permette di settare qualsiasi livello di dettaglio; può funzionare pure su un tablet Windows con Atom, se volete, scalando i dettagli (“super potato mode”).
The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel II on Steam

Civil war has broken out across Erebonia. After his narrow escape from Trista, Rean will take up his sword again on a journey with his Divine Knight, Valimar, in search of his friends from Class VII and a way to end the conflict before its price becomes far too dear…
