That IS our goal... but everything about this game is massive, so it's impossible to predict when it'll actually land at this point. Slightly off-topic (woo!) but I've been meaning to ask this: Since the entire trilogy has such massive amounts of text, how long are the games on a regular playthrough? |

Slightly off-topic (woo!) but I've been meaning to ask this: Since the entire trilogy has such massive amounts of text, how long are the games on a regular playthrough? About 40ish hours on FC, 60ish on SC and about 40-50 on 3rd I'd guess very roughly. I tend to lean a bit on the slow side so people who usually speed through the games will definitely do less, but talking to everyone and finding every quest on your own may well take longer. Wyrd wad tom is just slow though  |

Yeah, I'm pretty slow when it comes to beating games, too. At least I end up getting more bang for my buck, though.  |

It is kind of sad for chronicles... But I still have high hope for Sora no Kiseki, I mean I really miss Working designs with their cool box art and all, and since xseed's version of lunar and Ys Seven Premium I can see we finally have a succesor... Yay  |

We plan to do what we can.  It's already been stated on our Facebook that Chronicles likely will NOT have a full-on LE set... BUT, it WILL have a pre-order bonus of some sort, and the pre-order bonus WILL come in a box that finishes off the spine art for the three games. As for Sora no Kiseki, we're discussing that now, and we think we've come up with something really awesome. We just need to make sure we have the budget for it. -Tom Ohhhh, budget smudget, just go all out! Xseed gone wild!!  |

Something people have to realize in regards to LE materials is that often times, the difference in price between an LE and a regular edition of a game just covers the cost of producing the goodies and maybe a small small slice on top. Thus, as good as it is for promotion, it isn't all that great monetarily at the end of the day for companies. In the case for XSeed, I would imagine it is also the concern that if Chronicles or any title that has an LE release doesn't sell well, then that's a loss they are taking on the cost of making said goodies. Pessimism aside, I am glad to hear that things are going well in terms of the sales numbers of Ys Seven and Oath in Felghana and I do hope that Trails in the Sky will fair well as well. CLEARLY, I need an excuse to double-buy Falcom's titles after all. |

Oh, for Chronicles, the preorder should include the deed to a floating island in the sky. Or just dress your coworkers up as Feena and Reah, Tom.

It's probably too late but I'm still wishing for a replica harmonica with Chronicles Limited >_>

How about a replica harmonia for Sora no Kiseki? It'd stop me pining over that Korean LE I'll never clap eyes on :S
Realistically, I'd be happy with some sort of replica Bracers keyring/pendant.
Ooh! No no, gimme an orbment please! Pleeeaseeee! ^^~

Ill put this out there, what about a copy of the new Sora no Kiseki anime promo for the Sora no Kiseki release of course. I bet it will make fans happy, and plus it will boost the series as a whole.

Among all the preorder/LE bonuses made for niche import games, I think nothing tops the punching puppet Ghaleon or Lucia's Pendant replica for WD's Lunar localizations.
That said, Lucia's Pendant has just sat in its box, unseen for years. And while Ghaleon was an unofficial mascot for every Otakon Staff meeting for a couple of years, even he has just sat in his box packed away with Transformers nowadays.
I think trying to get the SnK Anime PV would be the most practical and freakin' solid.

How about a soundtrack CD? Should be cheap to press and the music is one of the best parts of the game anyway.
Then again I don't really like a lot of the silly preorder goods~
