>>258243984
This, I only seem to buy CE if they have cute girl figures, this one just seems to be targeted towards fujoshis
>>258243984
>>258246259
I have two CE's preorder. I want to be extra sure I get mine. And I think I'll keep both of them, because I love to collect Tales stuff. Already have japanese Famitsu DX Edition's of both Xillias.
Also, Xillia 2 is amazing. Sure, it reuses a lot of areas and things like that from Xillia 1, but character episodes and side content is amazing. Overall this is a lot better game than it's predecessor.
>>258246783
>no ahoge
>this is a lot better game than it's predecessor.
Obviously not
>I haven't played a Tales game ever
I've always had an interest in them, but whenever i'm choosing between a Tales and another game I also want I inevitably opt for the other. I don't know why i do it either.
Hope yall niggas have a graces save file on that hard drive.
>>258246783
That looks awful.
>>258247073
>>258247681
Faggots!
>>258240319
Nah.
I'll still get the game though.
Loved Vesperia
Graces was shit
Xillia was better than Graces, but not as good as Vesperia.
Where does Xillia 2 stand?
Preordering editions is cancer.
>>258244552
What the fuck? Pre-order cancelled.I didn't actually pre-order it.
>>258249072
I never played Vesperia since no suxbox. Graces was fun as hell at first, but I was completely annoyed and sick of the combat by the end that I stopped using hard mode and upgrading weapons and ending up trying to cheese through the end just to be over with it.
How is Xilia? I got it during a PSN sale just to play it eventually but i've heard alot of shit about it so idk if I want to start it and get annoyed about doing a whole lot of nothing endlessly.
I find thats how most tales games make me feel. Fun at first but they just keep going on and on with all kinds of needless story required side tracking like the cannons and shit in Graces.
I have to wait two weeks but shit do i want to pre-order it.
I'll buy the regular edition and play the pirated UNDUB with all DLC included.
>>258249390
Isn't Vesperia already translated on PS3?
>>258249357
YeahIt is an alternate universe Milla that joins your party in this one
>>258249604

>>258240319
I have standard edition pre-ordered because the last time I got the collector's edition of a game the contents were meh and the game was meh.

>>258243984
>Xillia 2 ce costs as much as the first one
Sucks to be in a third world country suffering from yet another economical crisis.
Xillia 2 lets you control Gaius.
You dont need any other reason. Fuck that beta faggot jude, why couldnt the first game be about Gaius
How many new kills does Elize get?
>>258254076
Too bad he sucks compared to Ludger. Seriously, everyone suck compared to him. Fucking OP character. I wish other chars had weapon swap and other cool shit too.

>>258240319
No japan dub...dropped
>>258255124
>mention slightly how the new orb system is a HUGE step down from the original
How did they make it worse than the first one?
>>258244894
8? that should be a fucking 3 maybe even 4 and that's me being generous. There's no such thing as a good Tales game.
>>258255124
He also didn't mention how you can only change your party inside towns.
Which was a batshit retarded decision from bamco, because if I go to a dungeon and I decide that I want to play with someone that isn't in the current party I have to go back all the fucking way out of the dungeon to get him inside the party.
At least the game has fast travel, but it doesn't make it any less of an annoyance.
Xillia 2 is like a 7/10 game at best. Or a 7/10 rehash.
>>258252185
>Tons of re-used assests
>One flaw lowers a score out of 10 by two points
I know, know, >IGN, but Jesus Christ.
>>258255330
If you're going to play it, you'll find out.
It's literally a BIG BIG step down from the original xillia, and I can't grasp what the hell was in their heads when they made that.
Xillia could've been great, but all the bad decisions that surrounded stopped it from being just a mediocre rehash.
PS3 Vesperia > Vesperia > Xillia 2 > Xillia > Graces
>>258255504
>one flaw
Nigga the game has much more flaws, read >>258255124 and >>258255367
Plus how even the fucking soundtrack is rehashed, and the only good track they inserted were re-arranges of some from vesperia PS3 like Fury sparks arrangement.

>>258255564
Holy shit this is painfully wrong, Graces and Xillia 2 (and Hearts R and Innocence R) destroy Vesperia.
>>258255856

>>258255564
>Xillia1
>better then Graces
>>258255989
>destroy Vesperia.
Anise did nothing wrong.
>>258256256
Yep, destroy Vesperia. The story was an absolute mess and the combat took forever to get anywhere near good (and even then it would be my least favorite Tales this gen combat-wise if Xillia 1 didn't exist). The production values and characters were top-notch but I play Tales games for the battles and the story.
>>258256079
>Graces
>better than anything
>all these faggots trashing xillia 2
Don't say anything until you play side quests, especially character episodes. These alone make this game worth playing.
>>258255989
Nobody cares about the combat system. Vesperia destroys every other tales games in content, story and characters. This is why Vesperia is the best Tales.
>>258256595
OH god character episodes like Tales of Legendia? Cool.
>>258256595
No, we're trashing xillia 2 because it's shit and a huge step down from the first one. We're all in agreement that Xillia 2 is a rehash and nobody should pay full price for it.
>>258254851
Yes, Alvin was a fundamentally better written character than jude in every way. What is judes reason for doing wht he does? Oh yeah, titties.
>>258256848
Bazongas are pretty good reason in my opinion.
>>258256449
>playing tales for the story
That aside, no. Like every tales game it takes until end game until you're able to use the combat more freely. The amount of content, interesting content, trashes both xillias combined, and the game actually have an acceptable story on top of all the content you can do.
And for vesperia PS3 you don't even need NG+ to get the combat moving, by the end game you'll have everything you need and the extra dungeon will get you to level 200 easily.
Hearts R is probably the only that you mentioned that topped vesperia combat/story wise, and it also gets awhile to progress (around end game) and story also tops it. Though, a given, vespie destroys it content-wise.
Played all of those you mentioned, by the way.

>character episodes
You mean those shitty uninteresting episodes about characters you probably don't care about, and said episodes are used to cover up how the main plot doesn't give any attention AT ALL to any other character besides Ludger and Elle?
Those you do to get rehashed costumes from xillia 1 with some shitty color variations?
Yeah, no.
>>258252185
Im actually surprised it got that high. I was under the impression that modern reviewers hate Japanese games.
>>258256669
>Nobody cares about the combat system.
Fuck yourself nerd.
Tales live and die on their combat.PS3 vesperia still has the best combat of those listed though.
>>258257714
It's only extremely Japanese games that get low scores from reviewers.
>>258254148
Please respond. Did anybody else play as her?
>>258257974
Nobody brought Xillia 2 back then and nobody is going to buy Xillia 2 now.
>>258257703
>>258240319
The bar mini game in Dahngrest. Never fucking again. But it was worth it tho for Raven's costume.
>>258255957
Nothing new aside from the plot, skill, techniques, characters, some mechanics. Its cool if you dont like what was added or reused, but dont lie.
>>258257817
Nobody plays Tales for their shitty mashy combat.
>>258257974
Do you intend to play with Elize in Xillia 2?
Because I hope, if you're not maining Ludger in Tales of Ludger and Elle, you're not playing it correctly
>>258258106
How is that a bait, dear friend?
The only cool side stuff to do in xillia 2 was the giganto hunting, which was also the best way to get money to pay that shitty debt that stops you from progressing the game.
Xillia 2 is a mediocre game of an already abortion that was the first xillia.
>>258256669

What is the deal with naming off the main cast of Abyss and their personalities on the back of that sign in Nordopolica in Vesperia?
If it's nothing more than a reference then it's pretty weak.

>>258258582
I've already beat the game, and I thought it was an alright sequel.
The big problem with xillia 2 was, if you didn't like the cast from xillia 1 this game won't help convincing you of otherwise.
So you have people like this >>258258429
ToX2 didn't beat vesperia, that's for sure though.
No, but I bout Tales of Symphonia Chronicles recently.
>>258258673
Nobody here loves Graces so you're wrong but even Graces is a better game than Xillia 2.

>>258258673
Xillia is just so fucking boring, Graces is just as bad but man Xillia is just so fucking dull.
>>258240319
No. I don't really want to play it, I hated Graces a lot. Though this doesn't look as bad as it.
I miss the more chibi 3D graphics Tales of Symphonia, Abyss and Vesperia had. I think they looked nicer than Xillia.
>>258258631
A sequel game set a year later would in all likelihood have the same character with the same techniques being set in the same world with similar combat mechanics wouldn't it? Yes the over reliance on old areas is a bummer, but there are new things in the game. That the point I'm trying to make.
>>258258794
>Vesperia is the best game in the series
>Baba doesn't bring it over
>Graces f, xillia and xillia 2 are the shittiest games in the series

>muh vesperia ps3
Why these faggots never give up?
Why don't they just make another game like Symphonia and Vesperia? Nobody really likes these linear dlcfests with minimal content, right? The visuals were nice , but Xillia had some of the worst decisions and mechanics I've ever seen in an rpg. This whole gen was lacking in good adventure jrpgs.
>>258258820
There's no real way to fuck up. If you get to level 99 then you should have unlocked the whole orb.
You should prioritize Artes though and personally after artes I went for SP/Skills.
>>258259431
>xillia 2
>minimal content
>>258258794

No reason to be assblasted, except how Tales has been only decreasing in quality by each release after Vesperia.

>>258258794

Because the newer games are worse.
>>258259284
Didn't MS get an exclusivity deal so PS3 Vesperia translation will never happen?
>>258259431
DLC is one of the big reasons I don't like Tales anymore. Now they just sell the costumes for $3-5 each instead of them just being in the game like standard.
I know Vesperia had DLC costumes, but it atleast still had the usual amount already in the game so the DLC ones really were extra.
Is there any chance of the Tales gameseverstart coming out on PC? I don't want to buy a new console.
>>258259602
>>258259561
If you think it has as much content as you'd expect from a sequel with so much reused content, you're in for disappointment.
I liked xillia 2 anyway though, but there's a reason why both xillias were so hated by the japanese fanbase.
>>258259752
No, none. Don't worry, Tales sucks now because it's trying to be like FF.
Zestiria will be ported to PS4 with extra content and it will be JP only
Mark my words.
>>258258794
I love how Vesperia is praised here all the time and everyone's so butthurt about it (that it's not localized on PS3). I finished it (X360 version) and it was good but not something you need to praise as the best games in the series.
>>258259903
How's Tales trying to be like Final Fantasy? At least they haven't released a Tales MMO as a mainline Tales game.
>Tales.of.Xillia.2.PS3-iMARS
>>258260197

>>258260338
>cinematics
>not advancing from text boxes to actual cutscenes
>Vesperia showed signs the series was going to be more mature
>Graces, the next game, is pure baby friendship shit
>>258259004
I want to play it but nothing compares to the original. Not even the original.
Symphonia was the first Tales game I had ever played. I saw it at K-Mart on sale for 20 bucks, but was weary, because I had never heard of the Tales series before. So I head to Game Crazy and see it cheaper, so I consider it fate and pick it up.
I was 16 at the time and I didn't have a lot of games so this one was played a lot. The moment I got home from school I would do my homework and head upstairs to play some Symphonia. I would spend no less than 2 hours on it at a time, sometimes up to 5 or 6. It was just me, a Gamecube, and Symphonia.
And I look back on the grand adventure I had with Lloyd and pals. And I just can't seem to recreate that experience. I know why, and it sucks.
Even with Vesperia, as great as that game is, I just can't get into it, or any game for that matter, like I did Symphonia, those many years ago.
This is what happens when fujoshits get too much power in popularity polls.

My fucking sides. If you lurk any RPG general in japanese boards, praising the xillias causes a shitstorm of trolls, and if you look at amazon.co.jp you can see how pleased most of the fanbase were with both games.
From 2011 shitstorm that was xillia 1's release to 2012, every tales general/thread in futaba/2ch was nothing but hate.
Sorry to tell you that.
>>258261057
I doubt it.
>>258260869
Um, no. Nearly every single Tales game gets an 8 out of 10.
>>258260625
The fanbase is 80% women, mate.
>>258260068
But everything in it was done on such a grand scale, from the world map, to the story, artes, and graphics. This game defined the series.
It is true what they say when the series turned to shit afterwords. It's not even a case of them trying to best themselves and failing, because first you actually have to try.
I am getting the game and there is nothing you guys can do to stop me.
>>258261121
If they hated Xillia 1 so much why did they buy Xillia 2?
stupid ass fanboys
>>258261121
Japan in charge of shit taste once again. Not really surprising though.
I know this question probably gets asked a lot like with Metal Gear but where do I start if I want to get into Tales?
I have PS2, PS3 ,360, Wii, and a shitty PC that can emulate PSX games and below
pls no bully
>>258261121
Nice sources m8
>>258261268
Because we're like Leon in DC. We're trapped and we have to deal with the path we chose.
But seriously, it's because we still hoped xillia 2 would fix the problems in xillia 1, but it didn't do that without inserting a bunch of problems on its own.
I'm still buying zestiria after a price drop though, just not day 1
Eternia is the best in the series

Don't really care if you believe me matey, but you're an idiot if you think people who played literally all games of the series, that is the japanese fanbase, are pleased with the games coming out recently.
It's not like what I'm saying is hard to believe, just look at vesperiafags. The only difference is that the japanese fanbase has rebirthfags/destinyfags who are also annoying as fuck.Like me
>>258261579
I know, I just wanted to know which ones were shit and I don't trust the reviewers. Then again why would I trust /v/
>>258261183
Eternia was still better. As far as the supposed drop in quality, I think that has to do with the fact that Vesperia perfected a style (Symphonia), whereas every game after that has been a combination of teams experimenting and trying to find there next mainstay formula.
>>258262036
I'd say try Tales of the Abyss or Vesperia.
>>258261912
To be honest, I'm inclined to believe that a lot of the Vesperiafags haven't even played Vesperia since most the Vesperia "discussion" is "WHERE IS THE PS3 VERSION BABA"
>>258260274
Beta version is already out, anon. Fixes the remaining city background voices.

>>258261569

>Fixes the remaining city background voices.
But muh mutton.
>>258261754
Vesperia should be in godtier and remove Hearts R and Destiny since nobody played those.
>>258262062
The one thing vesperia had going for it was not having many flaws that plagued so many games of the series while delivering a huge amount of interesting content to do.
That's pretty much why it's praised. Even xillia 2, a fucking sequel, feels barebones next to vespie.
>>258261769
>>main character transforms into edgy black thing
do you not know what Kamen Rider is?
or what Henshin is?
>>258255989
I fully agree with you.
I don't get the Vesperia hype.. I mean it was a good game, but there was nothing special about it imo
>>258261769
The story isn't about protecting her, though. But she tags along and it's not like MC's gonna let her die mate.
>>258262531
I do. They suck.So does Wild Arms 2 so far, I bought it during the $1 sale. The translation is terrible, some lines don't even make sense.
>>258261754
Move Vesperia up one tier.
>>258261754
Why the fuck is Vesperia not in God tier? It's the best game of the series.
>>258262531
Ignore him he's a faggot that doesn't know shit about justice.
Seems like the games reception is about 50/50 from both camps. Guess ill give it a whirl. You guys said Graces was bad and it was okay, so this has to be at least decent.

Not him but look
>>258260625
>>258262636
>nothing special
Tell me one tales game with the same amount of content vesperia has while keeping all top notch production qualities and combat.
If they kept the trend with vesperia maybe these fags would shut up, but now bamco just throws you some barebones shit and expects you to buy all the DLC.
At least the code geass DLC costumes were pretty neat.
>>258261754
What bothers me is that if you want to play all the games in the series you have to buy nine different consoles

Eternia, Symphonia, Destiny DC, Hearts.
>>258263298
Yes, but they fucked up english translation.
>>258263275
He's not even wrong Vesperia is objectively the best game in the series.
The thing about Vesperia PS3 is that Bamco knew that fans would be pissed about it since a lot of them had bought a 360 specifically for Vesperia which as we know the Japs really wanted nothing to do with. They had to really double down on making it superior in order to try and win the fans back.
>>258263036
What is all this extra content that Vesperia has anyways? Two extra characters and a bonus dungeon?
>>258263298
one of the best tales games I played to date
Will Xillia 2 have Jap voice acting? Isn't Xillia 1 censored?
>>258263029
That's because bamco lost all its shame in its pandering to fujos. Ludger is probably the biggest and most shameless fujobait in the series.
When I saw him cooking with a fucking apron I literally lost my shit, so yeah.
>>258263275

None have JP voices, but you can undub patch the games if you have CFW.

Is Tales Of Hearts really that good? I had never even heard of it, guess I might pick it up on Vita when it comes out over here.
>>258263398
None of those have the same amount of content as vesperia PS3 matey. Doesn't mean they are better games.
Played all of them, including both versions of hearts, and R doesn't have anything close to the production value of vesperia, so no.
>>258261329
Start with Symphonia, because it's battle system is like the basis for other games to come. That means simple and easy to master.
If you like Symphonia then play Vesperia next. After Vesperia go for Eternia.
You should eventually play Eternia and PS1 remake of Phantasia but I recommend these last because anymore, you may only like them if you are familiar with the series already.
Play Abyss any time after Symphonia but at your own risk, because I know you will like Symphonia and Vesperia but you may not like Abyss. It's characters are dysfunctional and the the overworld is laggy, and the loading times are not so great.
Innocence is good too, and for a DS game it is pretty impressive, but like Eternia and Phantasia, you may only like it if you are used to the franchise.
Never play Tempest. It is the sole reasoning for Namco creating the term escort title so that people understand that this is not a main title in the series.

Nah, I'm 42 hours into the game and I'm still wondering where my PS3 port is.
>>258263675
No it's not, the person who created that tier list is fucking retarded. The only Tales that should be in god tier is Vesperia.
>>258263937
I haven't played a tales game in english in 7 years or so, how's the quality of those dubs anyway.
Did they improve?
>>258263423
>>258263492
I didn't even know it was translated yet, get your shit together Bamco.
>>258264000
And the only thing that should be coming out of your mouth is that dick when you've finished sucking it.
>>258261754
Haven't played rebirth, destiny 2 and legendia yet, but I can agree with this tier list
Sooo...
Judging by this thread has Vesperia dethroned Sympgonia as babbys first Tales game, or is it jus lt one insufferable faggot that wont shut up about an above average game.
>>258264000
>No it's not,
Nah, hearts actually deserves god tier. If it wasn't for the random encounters it would be above that.
I agree putting vesperia PS3 on god tier.
I found Xillia and graces f to be just about unplayable. Zero interest in Xillia 2
>>258264153
gr8 original reply you got there you fucking retarded faggot but oh wait you have to retarded since you're a tales fan
>>258263267
Yeah but Hearts R isn't even out yet in the US or EU, and the only fan translation of the DS version is still in the making.
So Hearts R is only at the top, because some dude heard Baba say it was his favorite, or they played the Jap version and has that opinion of the game. Even if you know the language and can read Japanese, your experience would be in it's purist form, because you aren't playing it in your native language, and even if you don't agree with that, everyone else will.
>>258264353
I would think it's just one very persistent guy.
>>258264353
it's that one faggot
Vesperiafags are so fucking annoying and Im saying that as someone who have played the ps3 version and consider it the 2nd best in the series and own figure of Estelle and Rita.
Import the game and stop crying already.Its been like 5 years give up already.
>>258264127
It isnt fully translated yet. Theyre basing it on a trailers frim a couple months ago that had some lines awkwardly translated and no after battle quotes. It has been confirmed that the post battle quotes will be translated, and the full translation has at least one more qc check before the November release.
>tfw Abyssfag
>tfw Abyss had lodesofcontent and even had extra stuff added in the english version that wasnt in the original jap game
>tfw all anyone ever talks about is muh insufferable LukeHalf the new content in Vesperia PS3 was shit that was cut from the 360 version anyways.

Yes.

>Xillia 2 Collector's Edition
Considering the first Xilia was trash.
No the answer is no. take your whiny ass bitch.
>>258264510
Hearts DS also has a translation script m8, although no skits.
Also they put the Hearts DS fan translation on "hold"(aka canceled) since R got announced.
There is literally NO reason people shouldn't have played all of the main Tales games by now unless you didn't want to shell out some shekels for a 360.

>>258264353
It's probably a few people spamming the same thing over and over again how Vesperia is the best Tales game ever and it's the Second coming of Jesus Christ
>>258264878
This
All the Xillias are trash compared to Vesperia.
>>258264353
>above average game
You thinking those 3 words mean something shows how retarded you are.
>>258264754
For having very few flaws as a tales game, and you'd have to nitpick hard. The combat is great and every character is a viable main, including Kohak that is a healer who kicks ass in the literal sense.
From likeable characters, to an actual nice story too. Playing both versions of Hearts would be cool since some really good scenes got replaced on R for some more shallow ones.
R still got some good added scenes though.
Vesperia is the reason why I hate these threads. You can't even talk about other games without Vesperia babbys getting mad.

No, this is not OK.
Though, I'm surprised how high Raven is.
>>258265474

>>258264353
Nahunlike Vesperia Symphonia actually had a good story instead of a disjointed mess that felt like three completely different plotlines slapped together and its battle system was pretty progressive for its time
And amount of content be damned. Team Symphonia sidequests are the absolute worst, and despite the amount of content, I've had more fun with Tales games with significantly LESS content. The amount of content doesn't matter if its foundation is one of the weaker ones in the series.
>>258265394
It's not like anybody was discussing the game anyway
Can you people shut up about Vesperia already?
We get it, it's a good game (I finished the game too) but it's getting annoying when almost every post is about Vesperia.
>Vesperia is the best tales of game
>Tales of ... is trash compared to Vesperia
>tfw no Vesperia PS3 localization
>>258265474
Holy shit, people say this every time it gets posted.
Yuri and Leon got banned because they were always #1/#2
>>258265394
It's what happens when you get spoiled by playing actual good games.
If only bamco started putting out some quality releases. It's not like xillia 2 was entirely bad, it just was a very bad for a sequel. It's still what xillia 1 should have been.
>Vesperia babies will never know about the true best game in the series Destiny remake.
>>258265687
Maybe people would shut up about Vesperia if THEY WOULD JUST FUCKING LOCALISE IT.
>>258265416
That's a tough call, actually.
>>258265568>
>258265719
>Yuri got banned for winning everytime
Nice.
How can anyone like Xilia compared to older games. I played 6 hours or so of couch co-op with a friend game seemed fine at first main character was fist fighter which was cool. The lead woman looks retarded though and going from place to place is literally like straightline corriders. Then when we got our 4th party member the fucking fps is battles dropped dramatically. I'd honestly say it was the worst tales game I've ever played.
>TFW only one who really like graces
>>258264726
My nigga. The cast is honestly underappreciated, and I kind of want to see either it or Legendia, or maybe Rebirth get an HD rerelease with added content
>>258266180
No im here.
>>258265752
The Team Destiny games are genuinely better than the majority of the Team Symphonia ones(yes, even Graces. Say what you will about friendship but structurally its story was more sound than Vesperia's narrative and Graces ran with cliches from the beginning, instead of winding up a disappointing mess than embraced the same cliches it attempted to avoid for much of the game).
>>258265921
That's because it IS one of the worst Tales games and Xillia 2 is NOT any better. This is why we should have gotten Vesperia PS3 instead.
>>258265826
If people want to play it that bad they should just buy a used X360 and the game or import it ffs.
Every Tales thread is the same, people praising Vesperia or complaining that Vesperia isn't localized for PS3.
Cless is literally THE best Tales MC.
So, what tales game is everyone currently playing?
I'm playing desiny remake and just got control of the "ship"
