I'm interested to see how the game performs on Switch. I played the Japanese PS4 version which was rough at launch but improved with post-release patches. I expect there are going to be some necessary cutbacks (no 60FPS, lowered render resolution, reduced visual effects, the standard fare) but that shouldn't impact the quality of the game experience at all, it's a wonderful entry and a great starting point for newcomers in a long-running series that rarely ever has those great starting points.

For RPGs, I love Switch. I am willing to accept visual / graphical cutbacks, as long as the game plays well.

Even if the performance is only mediocre, the gameplay will hold up. The game uses a fresh new combat system that merges action combat with turn-based gameplay, the likes of which I haven't really seen in any other game including past Trails entries, and it's absolutely a great time.

For the original PS4 release, Falcom released a fairly comprehensive demo that allowed you to play through the entire first chapter of the game, and carry over your save to the full release. They've also done something similar with Ys X which released on Switch day 1, so hopefully the Switch version gets a similar demo for both the Japanese and Western releases so you can try-before-you-buy.

Interesting.

Yeah, I love demos that carry over the saves, hope they release one for this too.
