>Hey, you're not actually blood-relatives, he's only your adopted brother! Why aren't you fucking him yet? I expected something like this at some point, but not from the very beginning of the fucking game. What is Japan's issue with incest, exactly?
japan is very sexually repressed and the family units are really close, also everyone is an awkward retard in japan so naturally they are into fucking their siblings because they feel comfortable around them
Jose Rivera
I never got why people are so creeped out by it. She's like, what, 11 or 12 when Cassius finds Joshua? If they were orphans living in the same orphanage from that age or something like that would there be any issue?
David Cooper
It's very borderline, I suppose. But it's just on the edge of kind of weird. I mean, they lived together with her dad for what, five years? Almost ten? If they'd been older it probably wouldn't be a big deal, but given that it's during their development to adulthood, it stands to reason that they'd still be perceived as brother and sister, and that's effectively how they were raised. But I agree, it's very tenuous. But the fact that it's made so tenuous seems like a convenient excuse. I mean, they could have just been childhood friends or next door neighbours or something.

>What is Japan's issue with incest no issue whatsoever
Ryan Diaz
It seems a lot more common a subject in Japanese media than in others.
Jeremiah Hernandez
Marrying your first cousin is legal and accepted by Japs. They don't consider it incest. Brother/sister stuff is just otaku pandering because the most female interaction Otaku have is with family and they're sexually repressed.
Tyler Lee
They have an issue though. They have an incest fetish but at the same time they're weak ass faggots so they need to say "oh, but they're blood related!" to feel better about themselves. Seriously like 3/4 of their incest crap isn't actually blood related.
Grayson Hernandez
not at all considering they do fuck later in the game
Brody Baker
She never imply she want to FUCK him you sick fuck. At least not until she lost her.
Jack Adams
Why are all Falcom heroines sexual deviants? >Estelle is into incest >Yunica is super gay >Mail probably wants to fuck money itself
At least two NPCs flat out ask why they're not dating already, and the on in the OP says that it's fine when he's only adopted.
Asher Powell
>japan is sexually repressed
>can't talk about incest or sexualize anything in American mainstream media

Levi Baker
Because it was obvious to everyone except Estelle that Joshua never saw her as a sister
Nathan Green
This game is complete shit. What the fuck was I thinking hoping it would get better when I was already 10 hours in, then 20 hours in, and so on until I finally dropped it in the final city during the tournament. Fuck this game, seriously. It's complete garbage with literally no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Music is shit, gameplay is piss easy and so also shit, story is shit and goes nowhere, there's no character development, there's no challenge, the world is boring as fuck, the graphics are garbage even for a PSP game, just fuck this game and everyone who shilled it.
Aiden Campbell
You'd be glad to know that the theme goes nowhere interesting and it's 100% b-b-b-but we family clichè all the way through. In fact nothing in this game goes anywhere, it's one of the most mind numbing, generic pieces of shit I've ever played. Drop it before you waste more time.
Logan Williams
What exactly would you suggest as an alternative, in terms of modern but traditional-style JRPGs? I've been enjoying this, Bravely Default and the Lunar PSP remake even though they're all cheesy as fuck. Or maybe because of that, actually.
Christian Gray
I was gonna tell you thats not true but....uh I agree
Brandon Johnson
Adol is adventure-sexual.
Isaiah King
Whats YOUR issue with it? Why does it trigger you so badly?
Wanna share some traumatic memories?
Liam Garcia
No, I'm an only child. I can only speculate on what sibling incest is actually like...
Brody Ross
How can you enjoy this game? Maybe you're still at the beginning, but trust me, the game goes nowhere, nothing improves in this game, it's 40something hours of the same identical shit.
If you like old school jrpgs you should play Grandia 2 which is quite similar, it has very fleshed out npcs (better than TitS as they have multiple and actually funny-interesting conversations most of the time unlike TitS where everyone has the same long winded generic bullshit to say). Grandia 2 also has better battle system and the characters are less generic as fuck overly polite kiddies and more fun and interesting. Grandia 1 is the same shit but it's more classic in terms of story and characters and gameplay isn't as refined as 2 obviously.
Disgaea has a similar combat system but it's way deeper and more complex, but it's a very autistic game.
Another great modern but traditional jrpg that really stands out is the Persona series and especially 3 & 4 which I highly recommend.
Oliver Rodriguez
>Persona series and especially 3 & 4 no, give him n actual game like DDS
Ethan Nguyen
Better question: Why is Estelle only attracted to mass murderers?
Julian King
Already tried Persona, not quite what I was looking for, but thanks all the same. I prefer mainline SMT, but it's also radically thematically different from what I was looking for. I'll have a look at Grandia, I guess. It's nice that it's out on Steam now, but it's a little sad that it's just a port of an old game. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll see how it goes with TitS regardles, I like Falcom's work and I'd rather draw my own conclusions, even though I appreciate the warning.

TitS goes somewhere like Cold Steel. Too bad its story its 90% world building and the sequel is where the plot actually develops gameplay in both is ok
Robert Cook
So, 3rd chapter when?
Easton Young
fuck stop cropping stuffs
Noah Miller
>Can't transfer cold steel clear data to CSII cross platform unless you have a save immediately before the final battle

>you're not actually blood-relatives Boner lost. Japs don't understand the taboo is what makes incest hot.
