Following their tenuous encounter at sea, the young red-haired adventurer Adol Christin and the proud pirate Karja Balta find themselves bound by fate—and the mysterious power of Mana! As they search for a way to undo the mystical ties that bind them, they soon find themselves caught up in a conflict between two factions: the seafaring warriors known as the Normans and the enigmatic and seemingly immortal Griegr. In order to save the people of Obelia Gulf, Adol and Karja must navigate the depths of their unexpected bond and the power that it grants them.

Have always been more in the FF games personally. Though which Y game would you recommend to start. Is this a good game to start out witih because the trailer looks really good.
It must be nice for Ys fans to get games ported only a year later after release. Trails fans meanwhile..... Lol.
Why not both?
Ys games have a lot less dialogue to localize than Trails games, which factors into the time and expense of localizing them. Trails games are some of the most dialogue heavy games out there. That aside, we've gotten a huge flood of Trails games over the past few years, and the Calvard arc is on its way this year.
