This is unpropitious for Beseria, to the say the least. Making another Milla just to appease fans was a bad sign. Beseria is going to make up for Zesteria's shortcomings, and that in itself is pretty bad already.

Until they don't shake off the shitty look and Graces inspired-gameplay, the series will remain stagnant. It would be better off dead than see it sink further.

The game is even worse. First episode was comepletely non-canon and looked like something actually happens. In the game you get not-Ganon being hurrdurr-evil and the only reason Sorey needs to leave his comfy heaven-village, which is literally all the plot there is. The dungeons are uncreative, the fighting system piss-easy and convoluted, Graces-style linear no-air bollocks.

I didn't like their Fate Stay anime, the vn is a cheap eroge where you have fun reading shirou interacting with saber, sakura, taiga, illya, etc, then you laugh at the script in the sex scenes and shirou's pencil dick, then you deal with the shit plot in between all these events.

The anime focused in the shit story which is the worst part and left everything else behind.

God damn I didn't get this in the game either. The last Shepard was less than 20 years ago. He wrote that god damn book. Why does everyone act like it's some ancient myth?

Which is why it was so well-recieved by fans, correct? I mean, it's not like these same fans, who were DIRECTLY PANDERED-TO, made death threats and shit to Baba right? How silly of me, to say that didn't pander to its fans.

>>143654761
Velvet's body is not going to make for great gameplay, though. I expect failure, cautious optimism died when Xillia dropped. If I am wrong, which I hope I am, I will buy the game after a price-drop and after will await the next installment (which needs to be a 2D Tales game for the 3DS. It amazes me that they have only used it for Abyss)

I recently replayed Xillia. While I know it has it's flaws, mainly the boring-ass overworld, endless dumb grinding and pretty unlikeable characters, the fightan was quite fun and X2 had some pretty cool level designs (that one solar farm with Aska, the futuristic ruins later).
Also you got rewards for doing stuff well in-battle, which motivated me to actually chain that fucking 10-link artes combo into a combined mystic arte and did a million damage which felt fucking awesome.

Yeah, he just sacrificed his infant nephew to curse our main villain. Our hero.

He founded Camnlan. People knew who he was. That sword was returned to Ladylake after he died. The story still presents it like it's some ancient fairy tale.
>>
>>143655053
There is no environmental message.

The main theme is understanding. "Defeating the big bad doesn't mean things will be alright and everything will be fixed, so what should I do instead?". This is where most JRPG fail, you have the hero and the evil guy, so you go on a quest to defeat him, you kill him and game is over, everyone lives happily forever just because.

This is presented midgame when you encounter the final boss in a random map. You have the option to fight him and defeat him, ending the game right there, but doing so when you haven't reached your answer means nothing will change and the world will still be fucked. You defeated him without a second thought because in your eyes he was bad and that's it.

Instead what Sorey does is travel the continent and by himself learns everything about the bad guy, what happened to him, what's happening to the world and what will happen if he's not stopped. He doesn't let anyone tell him second hand, but rather he goes out there and search for the answer himself.

That's why I like this game so much. Sorey is not a mindless hero like most JRPG protagonist.

Too bad the conclusion is still "We have to go murder him."

This is a game where humans afflicted by evil thoughts and bad deeds can literally become corrupted and turn into monsters. Simple enough, and fitting for a game about a messianic figure. Until Rose joins the party that is. Rose is a killer. An assassin. And she is presented as a figure of absolute morals. Rose is for all intents and purposes, the one whose moral guidelines the game presents as true. Rose admonishes Sorey for refusing to kill humans completely taken over by malevolence. See, you can't save humans taken over by the malevolence, you have to kill them, the game says. It's relentless pragmatism. You're only useful if you can get the job done, and done in the way it's supposed to be. Alisha is a hindrance, so Sorey ditches her. That act is unthinkable for any other Tales main character so far. The game explains that Rose is good because she thinks really well before killing people. Because of that she has no bad feelings while doing so. She is the judge, the jury and the executor. For intents and purposes, Rose is a sociopath. Lack of empathy is put on a pedestal. As long as you truly believe you have the moral High Ground, and feel nothing while doing so, killing is fine and pure. It's once again a game about helplessness, about doing what you have to do, but this time in a grim and more bizarely grounded mindset. It doesn't matter why humans turn evil, you're told you can't save them anymore, so you have to kill them. As long as you're the good guy, killing is fine. It's a sense of morality so childish, black and white and . In a game about corruption and people turning bad, the only true recourse is murder. You're told you have to fulfill a prophecy and you do it, no ifs and buts. You kill, because you have the moral High Ground.

>>143655252
I find it weird the Celestial Record and the Lord of Calamity were such recent things.

I got the impressions throughout the game that they were things that happened a very long time ago then that scene with the past Shepard near the end of the game shows you otherwise.

>>143655683
>The main theme is understanding

Except Zestiria explores its themes sloppily. It masquerades as being more like earlier Tales games. You have to look beneath the surface to realize how messy the writing is. I don't think Zestiria intended to have such a dark message. I think the writing was so messy that it tried to be this optimistic save the world story, but the messy way in which it handled its characters and world turned into something far, far darker.
And Rose is a character that is just so ridiculous in how much the narrative agrees with her that you can't help but get the sense that unless you're born special, you're worthless.
I really hate it when a game tries to tell me one thing when in actuality it's telling me the opposite. That's what I really hated about Star Ocean 4. The same goes for Zestiria. The game tries to tell the player that Rose is so great. Rose is so amazing. Rose is always right.
But she's a sociopath. And in a world where the morality presented in Zestiria is the truth, honestly, the world wouldn't last long. Malevolence would take over the second the Shepherd looked away. Because regular humans are powerless without someone above them (seraph or shepherd) to save them. Humans can't do anything. Humans are worthless.

A world like that can't last long. Zestiria's world makes no sense whatsoever. It's a giant contradiction and would eventually just collapse onto itself.

Xillia 2 fixed the combat and I'd go as far as to say that it falls a bit behind Vesperia's combat, which I think is the best combat on a 3D Tales. But it still had Xillia characters, its world, and a dumb story. Ludger made the game fun, really.
>>
>>143655836
Eizen's subplot really bothered me in that regard, because I didn't feel like Sorey tried to find a way to save him. The normal Shepherd powers didn't do it? Oh well. Killing him is the only way to save him.
>>
>>143655889
It's not gonna be that possible in the DLC either since you're playing as Alisha rather then Rose.

Alisha's Episode is worse then the Future Arc in Graces f.

I totally agree on Xillia's shortcomings though, I also find Vesperia's combat way better simply because it has Patty and doesn't depend on you dragging the damn MC along so much.

Well Xillia 2 still does it kinda okay, Zestiria is just dropping the ball not even letting you change the displayed character.

>And Rose is a character that is just so ridiculous in how much the narrative agrees with her that you can't help but get the sense that unless you're born special, you're worthless.
I really hate it when a game tries to tell me one thing when in actuality it's telling me the opposite. That's what I really hated about Star Ocean 4. The same goes for Zestiria. The game tries to tell the player that Rose is so great. Rose is so amazing. Rose is always right.

And that's why I ended up kind of hating Rose, even though she has some of the better party interactions. She seems so contrary to what the rest of the game is telling you.

They pretty much screwed over the lore in trying to entangle both Sorey and Mikleo in what was the catalyst of the plot's crisis. Of course, this is just hammering the whole 'Shepherd and his companion will save the world' theme but it was the wrong thing to do.

Because Mikleo had to be the one sacrificed and because we know for the fact that he's a young boy, the events had to be recent. And that's kinda lame.

Yes. There is a DLC skit that heavily implies they had more than platonic feelings for eachother but do not want others to know about it (particuarly Zaveid). They're just like any other Tales romance where they pussyfoot around it.

But nothing has ever been confirmed or will be. Expect tons of fujobait in compensation though.

Are you sure?
Tales of Zestiria features a male lead, Sorey, and his male best friend, Mikleo, who are strongly implied to be in love with each other. In the game's skit-style dialogue, the player can see that Sorey finds Mikleo attractive (the word in question being a "babe"). A later skit also finds Sorey and Mikleo confirming that "things like [love] come up" for them; however, there are no female characters that could potentially be love interests for either of them—the game very clearly shows that. In an interview with the scriptwriter, it is said that an "m/f romance wouldn't work for Sorey." Multiple in-game titles show that Sorey and Mikleo are of the utmost importance to each other; Mikleo has the character title "Soulmate" in Japanese (translated to "Peas in a Pod") and Hideo Baba, the brand manager and producer of the series, calls Mikleo Sorey's "one and only," another title in-game. Explicit confirmation is lacking, as Bandai Namco feels they cannot outright state it, but these implications are virtual confirmation.

All of that is true but Sorey/Mikleo is still not 'canon', no matter what vocal fujos say. I like their relationship and there is evidence pointing towards potential romance, but it is not canon.

Simply because Bamco will never confirm it.

But no, now we have fucking time travel shenanigans to ruin everything. Thank you Bamco and your need to directly shill Berseria in the anime.
