Kuro no Kiseki Has an Alignment System

Previous details about Kuro no Kiseki hinted at it, and now it’s been confirmed: the upcoming new game in the Trails series will feature an alignment system.

The latest Famitsu feature on Kuro no Kiseki, with scans of the pages shared here, introduced two new characters and also revealed the LGC Alignment System.

LGC stands for Law, Gray, Chaos. According to translations, your choices and actions will influence your alignment, which in turn will influence various things, including your allies.

There are a lot of mixed feelings about this so far. Some people think it’s a great addition, while others worry it might result in the main story being weaker or shorter if it has branching paths.

There also are questions of how this will work in a series that features generally linear stories, and how sequels will acknowledge it.

My feeling right now is that the main story will probably be the same, with your alignment affecting minor things and side content. I doubt they’ll have multiple endings, at least not in any significant way. But we’ll see! No one knows for sure yet how they plan to implement this system, so what do you think is the best way for a Trails game to include alignment?

Meanwhile, don’t forget that tomorrow night/Friday morning is the 40th Anniversary live stream, where we might get some Trails news for the west!
