For this week's Demo Play Thursday i played the PlayStation 4 version of The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak II Story DEMO.
Unlike The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak which only got one demo before it's release, The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak II has two and today i'll be trying out the Story DEMO and next week i'll try the Battle DEMO. I had forgotten that i tried out the The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak DEMO last year https://youtu.be/8Ow0x0EV_XQ. When i started this DEMO there was an option to watch a re-cap for the first game, The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak, and i decided to watch it. as i didn't play it, i was fascinated where the story ended up going and wouldn't mind playing it as it looks like it was a good story.
Once that video is finished, this DEMO starts by setting up the mystery, or one of the mysteries, that The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak II will be dealing with. Then the story starts and as this is a Story DEMO, it's unsurprising that this is story heavy.
what i played took place mostly in the same area as the DEMO for The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak, so it was nice and familiar. but we did get to visit a couple of different areas. most of the people were also familiar, and again this isn't a negative. the speed of this DEMO felt slow, but because the location and people were the same, the speed of the story telling actually felt appropriate. the conversations were casual, people were familiar with each other, and ultimately i didn't really notice how long this video was until near the end, which is why this ended up being more than an hour. i was enjoying the story being told.
I would recommend checking out this DEMO. the save carries over to the main game if you choose to buy it. The DEMO also has it's own checklist of things to do. i didn't reach the end of it, nor did i finish the checklist. it wouldn't surprise me if there's another hour or so of DEMO left to play!
