STOP. No more of this shit! One character designer per game. All you're doing is causing inconsistency. If I had my way it'd just be Fujishima from now on, but if they're going to continue to use all of them, one at a time please.

Zestiria isn't a good entry in the tales series gameplay-wise and story-wise
no tales fan would accept the garbage that is zestiria had they not have played other tales games

making a prequel to a game almost all the fans don't like is the worst decision they could've made

but hey, at least they'll have an easier time making this game, reusing the xillia engine along the zestiria assets, why should try harder to make a better game? for the fans' sake?

we expected more from the tales team that they would be able to remind us why we love playing their games with each new entry to the series, now it's all to meet a deadline and putting no care or polish into anything they make, and they'll have the audacity to make any of the good stuff from zestiria and future games be bough through dlc or some other bullshit method that's piss fans off even more

what the fuck are we going to do to get this series back on track with what they had going for them, other than firing baba?

The best way to assure us of this is to distance yourself as much from zestiria as possible.

I dont give a shit about taking place in the same world or being a distant prequel or whatever. But now that gameplay features are starting to become visible its more and more looking like zestiria 2

It felt like a teaser to a real trailer, or just something they cut together really quick to show something for it. But man, if that's how it's looking right now, they really shouldn't bother.

What the fuck is wrong with letting these games cook a for a little longer rather than throwing them out there as soon as it's touched the grill?

Why couldn't they just port Xillia 2 to PC instead? It's the only Tales game with non-retarded character designs and has the best combat in the series by far.

Eh. They can always improve on the camera and equipment system in this entry and there's nothing terrible about the setting or story in zestiria. Gameplay had the most hiccups for me.
I don't see the big deal about it being a prequel at all. It will help flesh out zestiria which had a lot of potential but was clearly rushed and the game itself will already have a wealth of backstory. I hope the characters aren't neglected from development, but
>modern jrpgs

Now if they don't improve on the issues from before then it's a problem, but you won't know that till it's out. That said I'm still not too interested in the game before or after this revelation. SO5/FFXV/P5 still have most of my attention.

1's remake on the PSP is good to start with.

Then 2 on either PS1 or PSP.

If you want full 3D, 3 isn't too bad to start with just be aware that the story and characters are somewhat shit and it has a big plot twist at the end that may or may not shift your perspective on the other games.

Vesperia was made when final fantasy was well into their trainwreck

I always thought tales would be able to avoid the modern day jrpg apocalypse
>>
>>321117563
Star Ocean 2 is best for crafting, and decent combat, and semi-decent story.

Star Ocean 3 is great for combat, with absolute shit crafting and story.
>>
>>321117806
Every time I attempted to play tales I either fell sleep and forgot it or sell it after a few boring hours
It sounds like the series just isn't for you either
>>
>>321101238
Okay, I think I gotta ask.

Why do Talesfags like this series so much?
I mean Fantasyfags have the huge popularity, edgy angsty teenage characters, melodrama and changing gameplay
Questfags have the artstyle, the comfy, the simple greatly executed stories and a simple consistent gameplay.

What is Tales even about? Never heard of this shit before. Is it like that Chopin game? Moonlight Sonata or whatever?
>>
>>321118269
>the series isn't for you

dude I started at the beginning it did used to be for me
>>
>>321118454
It's one of the like three series that is just usually about going on some kind of adventure with a cast of unlikely heros. FF has been dead for like 8 years now and the west doesn't get Dragon Quest.

I like following a narrative and even if the ending ends up being shit the journey was more important to me.
>>
>>321118454
Same reason you play any other jrpg really, long story with lots of dialogue, in it for the long ass adventure with these characters.
>>
>>321118454

1. JRPGs with fun combat, multiplayer even in most circumstances.
2. Fun, light-hearted adventures

Those are the biggest draws for me, I can barely play other JRPGs because they tend to fall into one of two camps of combat styles: MMO "click on an enemy and watch your guy attack for a while" combat, or turn based, neither of which appeal to me.
>>
>>321118454
It's another mid tier jrpg series. You play one you played them all. The fanbase is obsessive and hyping a shit series like trailsfags because it's the hipster thing to like unpopular series.

>that is just usually about going on some kind of adventure with a cast of unlikely heros.

Shitty combat compared to most tails of games, and the Alisha/Rose incident.
>>
>Still giving a shit about Tales
It would take an investment like Vesperia for me to care
>>
>>321119287
He didn't ask why it or even if it was unique the question was why I liked playing them. I like going on adventures with fun characters in a world not the kind that want to have gay sex with you all the time like in Bioware games.
>>
>>321119416
Did you misquote?
Either way I haven't played Zesty.
But the common complaints are the terrible camera, the watered down Graces f combat, a long list of technical fuck ups and that Alisha incident
>>
>>321119416
It's game systems are objectively flawed to sometimes just plan non functional. Story/setting/characters is all up for personal debate.
>>
Tales used to be made by two seperate teams. Who worked independantly of each other and esentially gave each game a two year dev cycle despite the games being an almost annual series

Team Symphonia and Team Destiny

Team Symphonia did Symphonia, Abyss, Besperia and most of the super popular Tales games

Team Destiny did Destiny. graces, Hearts and such

Starting with Xillia scamco just merged them both into one and then forced the one team to just contine making games anually. Thats why Tales is shit now
>>
>>321119416

Well because its a bad game on a technical and design level. I would say the story and characters are lackluster even by tales standards but that just invites shitposting.
>>
>>321119416
Finished it recently, it's just an average game. It's not something to fanatically adore or hate.
>>
>>321101753
Like it or not those games have at least a minimum standard to follow and knows damned well that they can not fuck up

Bamco will continue to shit out garbage and shove that hateful garbage into their long gone audiences face in hopes of making them like this fuck up.

Even fucking acti isn't this arrogant and stupid.

I'm playing tales of symphonia right now and I've been wondering how you learns tech skills?

Raine is lvl 18 right now and wont learn photon, it is in her tech list but it is blue.

I've checked some FAQs but they just tell me that there is no requirement to learning photon except your level, unlike other techs where you have to use X skill X times to learn the next one.

So how do I learn skills without requirments?
>>
>>321115319
Is Hearts R really that good?

If I remember correctly, it really is just a random learn. Keep spamming spells and she'll eventually do it.

Question: is every game related to each other? or it's like FF?
I've never been interested in neither of them, but I watched Berseria's trailer and gameplay wise looks interesting.
>>
>>321124707
>Question: is every game related to each other?

outside of direct sequels (Symphonia games and XIllia games) they are not connected.

but there are references from previous games and you can fight people from previous games as optional bosses
>>
>>321115319
This is the dumbest shit ever. Xillia 2 doesn't replace Xillia 1. If you played 2 before 1, you're a fucking dumbass and did it wrong.

>>
>Vesperia PS3 will never be localized

I remember playing the 360 game and loved it, hold my urge to replay in hopes of a localization of the PS3 version and welp
>>
>>321119416
Story and characters were pretty bland honestly, not bad, but nothing that made me really care all that much about them.

Combat was pretty eh, playing as any other character but the human ones meant you were essentially gimping yourself.

Music was good, field map design was an improvement from Xillia.

Overall not an awful game, but not something I would write home about.
>>
>>321119526
>>321119819
>Alisha/Rose incident
Is this where Alisha was marketed as the heroine but we got Rose instead or is it story related?
>>
>>321126854
Havent played it yet but Alisha gets kidnapped off screen near the quite early into the game but its also obvious that baba got rid of her as a last minute decision, merchants sell her weapons in areas that you cant even access while you still have her and until end game
>>
>>321124707
>or it's like F
But Final Fantasy is all related.
Mysidia in IV is from II
Kain from IV is descended from Ricard
The dwarves from I, IX, IV, and V
The princess play in VII is referring to Rosa in IV (Kain being the dragon and Cecil's gay relationship with him)
In VIII there is a shop run by Cloud's descendant called "Cloud's Shop"
Final Fantasy I is the prequel to IX, Gilgamesh travels from V to XII, XIV and Type-0 as well as the Dissidia series being canon
>>
>>321127342
I'm not that much of a fan, and I barely follow Tales news, but goddan all I hear from Baba is retarded things, why is he still in charge?
>>
>>321125990
Hopefully a PS4 port happens because that would encourage Bandai Namco to do a localization of it.
>>
>>321101823
Five bucks says they were gonna reuse assets even if berseria wasnt a prequel
>>
>>321101238

It should have been a sequel to Xillia.

Would have been more fun if it turned out you were playing as the rebellious, edgy daughter of Jude and Millia, who desperately wants the attention of her workaholic MD father and absentee Great Spirit mother.

The fact that it is a prequel to Zestiria is kinda of an indication that it might turn into another shipwreck.

But Zestiria and Berseria seems to take place thousands of years apart. It doesn't even really matter much that it takes place on the same world.

There's only one seraph character so it will likely not have the same mechanics. Plus Velvet is part hellion or something and not a shepherd. Maybe they'll add an option for you to armatize with the blonde guy and shota if you so wish.

So can I, but I'm not going to color code it as shit just because I can see such shortcomings. I think for the most part it was an enjoyable game that had alot of lore that deserved more delving into and I'm happy we will be getting it in Berseria.
