Perhaps the runnerup game I liked was Reverie, mainly for the Rean and C main story routes, where you just get undiluted high intensity action, particularly Rean chapter 3 which is the best in the series. Every other Trails game is hamstrung by having lots of NPCs updating and available to talk to, and sidequests to do, which bogs down the pacing. Reverie wisely restricts how many NPCs there are available to talk to (except for any time you can visit Crossbell City) and there are no sidequests during the story. So you get more time spent on plot. It has a climatic final chapter with the threatening of world war, the music in babel, the final confrontation and then C stepping out of the teleportation portal. You also got one last ride through a dungeon being able to mix and match your favorite characters. It could have been the actual ending of the series. I wonder if it will be more satisfying then the ending game we will get in a few years from now.
I also liked the second half of FC for the tension and the plausible secret coup story that was happening, and how party members naturally came and left as their motives and circumstances deemed fit. However, I did not like the top down view at the rocks, the boring kingdom of Liberl, the meh combat and character building, or the boring first half of the game. I also did not like Estelle.
