>DOKIDOKI GROOVEWORKS, Inc.Lolwut
>>719766102Scamco outsource their porting team to some literal whos
>>719766162It's a shame that Tales is dead. Arise was supposed to be open world but they got Unreal Engined.
>>719765991I’m annoyed because I wanted this remaster for the JP voices. Why can’t they just leave shit alone?
Well I'll avoid it because I don't play bad Tales games. It's crazy how the series peaked on GC and nothing afterwards was as good lol
>>719765991Il play whatever the fuck I want!Il still not play it though. I played the original and it sacked!
>>719765991Retard.
>>719766515Nigger
>>719766515 Based argument. Truly refuted every point with that one.
>>719766262What does that even mean? If Squeenix can do open world with Rebirth why can't Namco?It looks like they just threw the landscape textures through ESRGAN like all the other Tales remastersEven Falcom is doing real remakes now.
>>719765991Won't be supporting this censored sloppa, shrimple as
Hold up… where the fuck is the second game?
>>719765991I won't be buying because I wanted Abyss, Scamco you stupid niggers.
>>719766262>remaster after remaster>arise apparently sold like crazyand yet people keep saying series is dead. why?
>>719770059They didn't like Arise and costs are apparently getting too high for a series that's not THAT high profile.
I have no choice but to buy it. If I keep sucking them off, maybe they'll release DC in America.
Why does it cost $40...
>>719770280anon. you know none of those old games are ever getting ported or remastered.
>>719770325Let me dream, it's all I have left.
>>719770313>why is it HEAVILY DISCOUNTEDRetard bro?
Magislut's adventures remake when?
>>719770219dlc didn't help
>>719766304???
>>719770614naruhodo
>>719770059Cost to profit ratio isn't satisfactory to Namco anymore. This is why they only care about licensed anime shit and Tekken.
Tales games also aged horribly to be fair.Played graces f recently and it's a lot of kawaii uguu characters or characters only around for the sake of the trope.Gameplay is fine but is severely outdated.Tales, if japan hasn't given up on it, needs a complete overhaul.
>>719771256it's anime: the series. that's kinda the point.
>>719771256>Tales, if japan hasn't given up on it, needs a complete overhaul.That was Arise.
>>719771256I had fun with Graces F but I can't stomach another playthrough since it's a 70 hour game with the future arc included.Xillia is a much shorter game especially if you choose Milla but it's also complete mediocre.
>>719771256Like modern games are better.
>>719771256True thats why I always replaying thisFor me this is 100% true Tales experience
I'll buy it but will probably replay Phantasia and SO2 instead.Laughed really hard when I found out both games have redheaded triplet girls.
>>719770614The censorship makes the dual audio not worth it. I’ll tolerate SHARING IS CARING on my PS3.
>>719770325I know.
>>719765991Waiting to be bundled with sequel and heavy discount, thanks
What terrible evil did they do now? You can't ogle at a child's underwear? Someone's collar texture is 1.1mm higher than before? Or was it just the pipe thing?
>>719770059Just going by sales is a straight up retarded metric. You still need to account for dev budget, marketing budget, was it worth spending all that on this game vs another game, was it worth spending that money on this game instead of sticking it into the stock market, etc. It's the same as moronic Crapcom shills going B-B-BUT WILDS SOLD 10 MILLION IN A WEEK!!!!! Legs are important. These games are franchises and part of series for a reason. There's no point if the games don't grow the series or keep an audience. Arise released during the peak of covid and the DLC sold like straight up ass and fucking flopped. This means that the majority of people who bought Arise didn't bother to stay. The Tales gachas keep dying. There's no passionate leaders to take the reigns for the Tales series anymore. On top of all this, the series is still under bandai Namco which is full of retards itself. The future of the series is pretty grim.
>>719770428AI still cant draw eyes properly
>>719771648Just install CFW on your PS3 and get the undub.
>>719773691They removed Millia's lip gloss.
>>719773727>The Tales gachas keep dying.no one asked for that shit
Oh NONONONONO
>>719770059Assblasted vocal minority can't stop crying about Arise despite it saving the series.
>>719774661>not even a hint of a new game in 4 years>savedlol
>>719774542>we changed some expressions.It's almost as if that's the only "feature" of the remaster
>>719774661In some situations, death can be salvation
Tales of Censorillia
>>719774542Did they also change the Japanese?
If that Symonneanon is still alive and reading this, you can rip her models now with all the rigging
>>719765991Xillia sucks so I wasn't thinking of buying it anyway
>>719766262Nothing wrong with Unreal Engine. What's wrong is that they're not making use of whatever assets Arise generated for even a spin-off project or some shit (Arise wasn't even Tales of). The next game could be bigger and better but we're stuck in this hellhole where nothing has happened since Arise and nobody will know what the fuck a 'Tales of' is unless they throw some money to advertise with Geoff again.>>719770059It'd be nice if it was Xillia 1+2. Unless it comes around in short order, we'll likely have to wait another goddamn year for Xillia 2 and then something like the Abyss.
>>719770059If Arise sold like crazy they would be releasing new games instead of low effort remasters to recuperate the loss.
>>719770280The fan translation of DC is fine though.
>>719770059Reminder that they released a DLC for arise years later and literally nobody cared.
>>719765991So what does it take to get these trannies out of game companies?
>>719765991I would avoid Xillia with or without the pipe. Game is full trash, killed the series. Zestiria and Arise shat on the remains.
>>719770379Xillia is worth 20$ in a good day. 15 y/o are not worth 40$.
>>719771256It has symbol encounters, unlike most games before 2000. Sounds like you just don't like JRPGs.
>>719777068Berseria too
>>719774661Arise fans didn't even get the DLC and are tourists and casuals.
>>719765991This shit will bomb so hard. You can look everywhere, people are saying they would either buy it with Xillia 2 or just wait discount.
I liked xillia 1 and am currently working through 2. How is the combat/cuhrayzee potential of zestiria and beyond?
>>719774542>we want modern western audienceEvery single time.
>>719777582They are retards
>>719777749Xillia fans surely are
>>719770059>Vesperia remaster was 2019>Graces remaster was 2025>"remaster after remaster"yeah nah
>>719777597xillia 2 was the last game with good combat, enemy juggling and all that good stuffArise had potential but they made every boss immune to knockback.ludger gameplay is the last shining light that sparkled tales of
>>719777582xillia 2 wasnt even that good but ludger gameplay was just super fun
Xillia 2 10000000000000000% gonna be censored. Its even more bleak than Abyss
>>719777883>>Vesperia remaster was 2019Damn. I could've sworn than came out like two years ago.
>>719774542All they did was remove a pipe item you could wear, this to not encourage smoking.
>>719765991It’s with part 2, r-r-rignt
>>719777134>suddenly
>>719779436What we know so far, right?They could've changed more
>>719779569This wasn't something found by people, there's a list of things they changed, and this is basically it
>>719774542Heh, I waited for the abyss remaster for some long time, but seeing this I might as well just play the original
>>719779569That was the change, a stupid pipe because of modern Japanese laws
>>719779695There's nothing in abyss worth censoring, which why it's so fucking stupid for bamco to do xillia over it.
Is this 1+2 or just 1?
>>7197798871
>>719779959
>>7197798871+2=3.
>>719766262>Arise was supposed to be even worse than the trash it already wasDidn't think it was possible
I'm willing to bet the Tales team is working on Namco's new engine. Once it's finished, a Tales game will be the first game released on it.
ok I've played symphonia, zesteria, berseria and almost finished arise. what next?
I haven't played any Tales games, which one should I try, if only one?
>>719770059It's a mindless meme at this point.
arise is really bad
>>719779887Symphonia was just the first game so Xillia is too. No idea where memester got the idea that two originally full price titles should be sold together.
>>719780410Any so long as it's not Zesteria or Arise. Just pick one you like the look of. They're all worth playing and opinions on which are best vary.
zesteria is really good
>>719780410Tales of Zestiria
Tits of Berseria
>>719765991I refuse to buy censored shit. Even if it's just a fucking smoking pipe that's censored.
We don’t play remasters or remakes. We only play the original, on original hardware. Don’t have that? Tough luck. Oh, and nice try with the censorship, but we’re not having that either. This game infringes on my constitutional rights to free speech and shouldn’t even be allowed.
>>719770219Tales doesn't need AAAA budget due to its art style. Symphonia looks like crap and is still great.
censorship is cut contentcut content has to mean cut price
>>719765991I didn't follow anything, so i'm just gonna ask: why is this a "demastered" version?I see people here talking about censorship, is that true? What are they censoring?Or is there something else?
>>719765991Why is it censored?
>>719781607So far the only thing they listed as removed is some (tobacco) pipe attachment thing.Otherwise it seems OK, they removed the retarded filter, but the developer is a literally who so who knows how the port will be. It's not the same guys who did the Graces f remaster which pretty much had no issues.
