Persona 4 or Takes of Symphonia; what do I play first?
>>
>>323966575
Tales....Tales.
Not Takes.
>>
>>323966575
Persona.
You shouldn't play Tales of.
>>
>>323967734

Why not?
>>
>>323966575
Persona 4 has a great story and the characters are really likeable. However I didn't really enjoy the social aspect and having to make boring choices between reading books and catching bugs. Also the dungeon crawling is boring as shit. You have to tread through a dozen randomly generated floors for each dungeon. Turn based combat consists of just cycling through all your spells until you find the enemy's weakness. I got bored halfway through the game and watched the anime instead.

Tales has way more exciting game play. Symphonia has one of the better stories in the tales franchise.

Tales of
You shouldn't play Persona.
>>
Play Symph, but when you shit or eat swap to P4G.
Unless you're talking standard P4 here, in which case, just play Symphonia.
>>
Snoozefest or JRPG that keeps you awake

Generic waifus or truest bro of them all and greatest traitor of all time

i am not a boss of you m8 but Persona 4 is shit compared to other rpgs and pretty much anything is better than that.
>>
Beat Xillia recently, should I play Xillia 2 or Hearts R?
>>
>>323969871

What's the main difference between P4 and P4G? I just picked it up on PSN because it was $3 and know the series has a good rep.
>>
Tales.
Persona 4 is a shitty dating sim, play a real SMT game.
>>
>>323966575

Tales will take way less time to finish, so there's that.
>>
>>323970591
P4G adds more of the cringey slice of life scenes but also the best looking girl in the game

These are real spoilers OP Kratos or Zelos?
>>
>>323970591
More content, music, some gameplay rebalances, changed Chie and Teddy's VA, added Marie, removed most tedium from fusing.

It's better than vanilla in almost every way if you don't mind the VA changes and silly slice of life scenes, but vanilla is still fine.

Yes

But I still need to suck on the big titted ninja in ToS

P4 if you want shitty dungeon crawling, surrogate friends, and some cute waifus.

Tales if you want a literal retard protagonist, inferior beings, and Sheena Fujipaizuri.
>>
Both are pretty good entry level JRPGs.
Just be sure to play them both regardless of which is first.
>>
>>323971723

Shame she's the worst party member to control aside from the mages. The Kuchinawa battle is bad purely because she's shit.

Tales thread?

I have a Tales of Graces F question

Do i need to get the 2 magic carta cards that requires stamps in the main arc or can I get them in the future arc? Because other than Inn requests, I only need the 2 cards that require stamp level 9 in 2 stores
>>
>>323971089
>but also the best looking girl in the game

who is the worst girl

>>323971442
>These are real spoilers OP Kratos or Zelos?
Probably Kratos because Zelos is a piece of shit character and betrays the party for selfish reasons while the other person has good reasons
>>
>>323972454
Nana Mizuki is Colette?
>>
>>323973480

Yes

>>323973320
He only betrays you if you treat him like shit though.
>>
>>323969662
>Symphonia has one of the better stories in the tales franchise.
That's not really saying much.
>>
A VN with mindless randomized dungeon crawling.

or

One of the best jrpgs of 6th gen.

Your move op.
>>
>>323966575
Well lets see generic JRPG 2045453553 or Persona? Hmmmm I bet the other game even has a big guy and wide eyed girl whose full of adventure, possibly a kid or an animal for comic relief... that isn't that funny.
>>
>>323973601
>He only betrays you if you treat him like shit though.

I treat Zelos like shit because he treats the party like shit.

He reaped what he sowed
>>
>>323973731
Don't forget about traitor-kun~ Tales of Generic can't do without him.
>>
>>323973706
It's somewhat simple and generic but it's at least done right. If you want to fault anything in Symphonia it should really be how ass it is to play half the characters. Also, threadly reminder that Symphonia has nothing to do with music and is a theological term.

>>323973883
Come on man, the guy had a rough life. Being rich and getting women is fun but that's pretty much all he had going for him.
>>
>>323974029
>Being rich and getting women is fun but that's pretty much all he had going for him.

and he grew up to being a selfish dick. First chance for people to like him for who he is AND HE FUCKING BLOWS IT
>>
>>323973714
>One of the best jrpgs of 6th gen.
Spotted the guy who only had a GameCube that gen. ToS wasn't even the best jrpg on that system.
>>
>>323972153
Did you guys like the OVA?

I love Symphonia but I thought it was really bad. But it's one of those OVAs where I watch it just because it's based on something I like a fucking lot already.
>>
>>323974292
That's why I watched the P4 anime, though having Yu make all the silly ass decisions was pretty great.
>>
>>323974292

the production values are good. there's a massive tone shift going from the sylvarant arc to the tethealla though. sylvarant's kind of heavy / serious / boring. tethealla has shinier animation / art and is a lot more lively. united world part puts a lot of emphasis on the villain's personal drama

liked the tethealla part the most, episodes 5~9 iirc
>>
>>323974292

The omake are the best
>>
>>323974256
>Spotted the guy who only had a GameCube that gen.

Nope I had a PS2. I also liked Symphonia more than any other Gamecube jrpg including Skies, Paper Mario and Baten Kaitos.
>>
>>323971843
>implying there any any good quality pictures of it
>>
>>323968227
Because his opinion is shit
>>
>>323973261

can anyone answer this?
>>
>>323977517
when you are in the future arc, everything in the main arc is on pause until the future arc is beaten
>>
>>323978421

oh,

guess that means I need to find some good ways to make gald in the game
>>
>>323971812
You shitting me? She's easy to use, and probably one of the best in the hands of a good player. Hell, she's one of the few characters with an infinite that you don't need to use the tech glitch for.
Her AI is fucking unbelievable garbage, though, like Raine's, Genis', and Colette's.
>>
>>323973601
>He only betrays you if you treat him like shit though.
He only betrays you if Kratos visits you in Flanoir. How you treat him and his affection value has nothing to do with it.
