The Legend of Heroes: Trails Beyond the Horizon introduces a fascinating moral alignment system known as the LGC Alignment. Unlike its predecessor where these choices deeply influenced the story, here they mostly unlock achievements tied to your moral standing. Side quests scattered around the game all subtly nudge your alignment toward Law, Gray, or Chaos, but what makes this system compelling are the pivotal player choices that shape how these points add up. If you want to tailor your moral path or snag all the achievements, understanding these choices is crucial.
Approximately half of the game’s side quests conclude with a decision that impacts your LGC Alignment. The system signals minor changes with a single plus (+) and major shifts with a double plus (++). Below is a comprehensive rundown of every quest featuring an alignment choice and the specific effect each option has.
