>>4005495Go back to twitter
>>4005324I play tales but nothing after Graces. The series really lost its way. It has a tried and trusted formula they need to stop deviating by chasing trends like roll slop
4K Res of TalesFES2026. Its JPG though
LBP did it again. Phantasia Full Voice Edition patch with all the QoL from Cross backported.https://www.lifebottle.org/projects/topfve/patcher/
>>4008327And Lumina still not done with D2 as Life Bottle keep pumping out projects.
The Twin Brave demo is fully translated here's the link they shared to patch the game https://www.lifebottle.org/projects/tbinnordemo/patcher/You only need the Japanese Twin Brave game to patch. There's about 20 minutes of gameplay in the demo.
>>4008371Life Bottle would've been done with D2 by now on top of all the other projects they've got going. I bet we'll get an official remaster of Destiny DC and Destiny 2 before we ever get the fan translation.
>>4008887Hope so, Lumina deserves the misery
I get why it happened, but I hate how from Graces onwards the series just became a series of hallways and true map exploration was dead. It makes the world feel smaller in the same way FFX did.
>>4007298You'd probably like Xillia then because the biggest criticism of the game at the time in japan was that it was this big anniversary game and all they did to celebrate that was a by-the-numbers Tales Of game no different from how the series had been for 20 years that experimented nothing and tried nothing new. Xillia 2 if nothing else, tried something different in terms of story.
>>4010097Xillia has little content and recycled corridor maps over and over, so that's already different from most games before.
>>4010094I like how Graces did it because like FF it also had secret areas to click/find on the map (Oswell's Vault, the Resort, Turtlez village, Lambda's robot body, etc). Xillia~Zestiria were awful. Berseria was ugly although there were some extra places too.
>>4010094Yeah the games lost alot of charm and identity that way. Abyss and versperia had a cool overworld you could stumble upon neat shit
>>4007327Wet Laphi in shorts mmmmrrghhh.
Theres nothing announced at TalesFES. Dont hold your breath
>>4005324In another universe Tales series is massively successful series that every fanbase (degenerate or casuals) like
Sex with Elize.And Sophie.And Patty.
Expedition 33's director.
>>4011762He also really likes KH2
https://asobistage.asobistore.jp/event/to_tof_2026/deliveryI was wondering if you can download high quality PNGs if you pay 200 yen to character you like. I want Velvet so bad.
>>4010097>No overworld, instead we get corridors and harbors everywhere>Multiplayer gimped with the link system. >High level spells are such a clusterfuck that visual clarity suffers which makes multiplayer even worse>Bosses can suddenly decide to get out of combos by having an ! above their had, which becomes hard to see because of the point above>Can't have multiple strategy presets for different situations like virtually every other Tales game, even fucking PhantasiaThe Xillia games are a mess and clearly showed how much of a hack Baba is. Mostly by being the start of the downfall of co-op and not being able to produce a decent amount of environments.
Japs really love their yearly Tales festival huh
Started playing cross because people were saying that was the best version of phantasia. Loving it so far and mint is very cute. I used to rag on this series for being slop after briefly playing a bit of xillia 2 and graces f on ps3 but i kinda see why people like it now
>>4012369>Bosses can suddenly decide to get out of combos by having an ! above their headEnemies abusing tech outs is nothing new in the series by that point. Kurt and the Boar in Graces were notorious for that.
>>4013387It being in one other game too doesn't make it any better or worse. Tbf, it makes it so you can't just endlessly combo bossses. The main problem imo is it being present in the visual clusterfuck that is Xillia.
>>4013671>one other gametry several other games and the same goes for the visual clutter when too many high end spells go off at the same time too.
>>4013671So it's not a problem only in Xillia. It's hardly a problem anyway, besides Skill issue.
>>4008327>Phantasia Full Voice Edition patch with all the QoL from Cross backported.I mean, I guess that's cool, but was there a point in playing the FVE over X besides the lack of Rondoline (a character some might understandably not like)?
>>4014590If they want to experience the closest thing to the PS1 version with voicedls. I ended up loving the battle system of PS1 Phantasia, so I kinda prefer it over X.
Is it just me or do a lot of Cless's artes feel iffy in Phantasia X?

>>4015576Persona is way more alive than Tales.
>>4011619calm down velvet
>>4015848Impossbiile. I think that game made me a shotacon.I now wish to be a girl just to have laphi impregnate me and fuck me senseless.
>>4015850if I had an image of Velvet dressed as a doctor i'd have uploaded it
>>4015857Man laphi porn is so few there are just 4 etero, 3 yaoi, 2 images set. I need more laphi.
>>4015862Oh and one ai slop that is incredibly sexy.
>>4015865I forgot AI existed
I just started Berseria played for an hour and was kind of shocked at how bad the story is. I know Tales has that reputation and I was prepared for slop but it's even worse than I expected. Hopefully it gets better.
>>4015911>an hour in>dislike storyIt literally just started
>>4015915Yea the thing about Tales is they usually have a strong opening and then get more and more shitty as the game goes on. So I'm thinking if we're already at full cringe in the first hour then I'm really worried
>>4015916Just keep playing the game anon
>>4015916>average Final Fantasy fango back, tourist
>>4015919I finished Tales of Symphonia before you were even born
>>4015908Yeah but i don't like it.
>>4015920Cope
>>4015920Tales of Symphonia wasn't available released in 1990, tourist.
>>4012369Here's an actual complaint, the AI is completely and utterly broken when linked which is a serious problem for casters.
llyod irving, come forth
>>4015908>>4015926AI won
>>4015945What do you use for animation?
>>4015911It gets worse as you get further and further into the game
I don't know how Phantasia X managed to do it, but they turned the flying Ishrantu fight from piss easy to rng cancer depending on how much he decides to spam that fireball with the lingering hotbox.
Alright I'm now 7 hours in and this is the biggest pile of shit I have ever played. I'm actually stunned at how bad it is. How did we fall from the mighty heights of Eternia, Symphonia, Abyss, and Vesperia to this?
>>4016072what part are you at?
>>4016072Vesperia is a meme, it has the worst story in the series besides Tempest, Dawn of the New World, Zestiria and Arise.
>>4016072Team Destiny and Team Symphonia merged together and the cconsequences of that can be seen on the last 3 games
>>4016084We just watched Artorious give his speech and be called "Shephered" and Velvet have a melty and start screaming and climbing up a tower in the middle of the city with her giant demon hand which no one saw somehow.
>>4016299they're all watching the speech
>>4016156Sadly how we got the worst of two worlds instead of the best. I miss Team Symphonia content and Team Destiny battle systems.
>get to tethealla>get boredLol 2nd time this happened. I guess Arise and possible future games is all I like about Tales
>>4016736I wish the second world in Arise didn't suck so much. Same for Graces, Hearts and the Xillias.Eternia and Symphonia are the only games that nailed it.
>>4016811Graces and Hearts don't bother me because they're supposed to be dead worlds.
Garbage sidequest. Its just 5 copies of the same shitty enemy and the last one can easily no diff Suzu's weak ass.
>>4016813Yeah but so was Rena.
>>4017216Rena is built up as your oppressor (which carries an implication of superiority) from the first second of the game. It's not supposed to be a dead world, it's revealed to be one in a twist. Neither Fodra nor Quartia are treated like this, their existence is revealed simultaneously with the fact that they're dead worlds. There's no time for you to expect a thriving civilization when you reach them.There's also the much bigger issue in that Rena brings with it a shift in pacing and presentation, drowning you in expository text.
>>4017305Still a dead world and only the last dungeon.
Happy Deathniversary Crestoria !
>>4018855I spent a ton of money to have an entire team of velvet
>>4017545Yeah exactly, instead of a second half of the game, you get the worst dungeon in the game. It's a huge letdown.
>SAO echoes of eligtards censoredNew Tales gonna be shit.....

Will we ever get a Tales game with a party that isn't just redditors?It feels like the plot of every Tales game is just Reddit vs 4chan and you're forced to play as the redditors every time
>>4020058Velvet is a 4chan schizo censored by age rating but magilou is 300% reddit
>>4020058cool it with the anti-japanese remarks
Any news about that 60 FPS Mod that LBP were supposedly going to make for the PC port of Tales of Symphonia?
>>4020058Jade is peak /sci/
>>4020058what game has the most 4chan cast? rebirth?
why is hearts so unpopular? i never see anything from it rank high in polls (other than creed in the villains poll from rays funnily enough)
>>4020112too white to be on /sci/
>>4021536Handhelds in general just aren't as popular as console games.
>>4021536I'm autistic so I wanna play the original Hearts before the Vita remake, and Hearts DS is *still* not fucking translated so...
>>4021535
I've been playing ToA and I feel like whatever is going on between Jade and Peony is horrifically inappropriate
>>4022112Peony is a gyaruo that didn't want to rule and was forced to due to the war and the Score. He misses his childhood in Keterburg and the boys, and is probably still in love with Jade's sister. He masks it all with his devil-may-care attitude.
>>4021708Makes sense that Reddit and Era dislike this game
Why is Velvet like some kind of reddit californian?Shouldn't she be a hick with a massive country accent? She literally grew up in the woods and likes to hunt. She probably listens to country music and shoots guns. Way down yonder on da chatahoochieImagine how much better the game would've been had they properly casted Velvet to have a country accent so thick it was incomprehensible to 90% of people. All of her dialogue would have instantly been improved 10x.

>>4007327It took me a while to realize that's Keele between Farah and Caius.
Is Berseria the first JRPG in history specifically meant for foids?
>>4023297>Women were just schizos the entire time
>>4023298I'm meaning it literally, the entire game is very feminist coded. I do what I want, our feelings are all that matter, a literal devouring mother archetype smothering the brother-son in the void for all eternity, killing the patriarch with his own sword of reason. It clearly has women in mind as its primary audience. I'm asking seriously because I can't think of any other JRPG that was specifically written for a female audience.
>>4023300>It's feminist because it mocks reddit scientoids
hell even Velvet's character design itself is very feminist, combining the empowered slut-walk outfit with the giant ugly demon-hand body insecurity/dysmorphia. I think the ironic thing here is gamergate chuds were celebrating the outfit when it first released because they thought it was anti-woke and then the entire game is this ceaseless unfolding of feminist tropes lol
>>4023297It's a shotacon power fantasy.What do you think?
>>4023297>>4023298>>4023300>>4023313>>4023470Perfectly explains why Berseria is a dogshit game for retards
I miss the posters counter
>>4023972Did they ever give an official reason for its removal? I mean we all know the real reason why but did they even try coming up with a decent excuse?
>>4024014>needing to ask

>>4025741kek
Somebody posted the patch on the Tales subreddit and the lumina tales member that's a mod decided to delete it. Can't make that shit up.

>>4026492I started berseria because i felt in love with laphi and i wanted to do with him all kind of stuff so... follow your dick (and at least you will not be disappointed as me with berseria).
>>4026492Men are objectively better in Tales than w*men so yes
TAAAAALES
>>4027032No one knows anything about the new game, they haven't said anything at all except that they're working on it.The only thing we can say is that several job recruitment ads for Tales were posted shortly after Arise, and one of them was for a battle designer. I don't remember what the other ones were.
This might be the worst tales thread we've had in years. I was gone for a full month and there hasn't been a single good post
>>4027811Be grateful theres a tales thread. This series is legitfully dead
/v is that way you can both fuck off and don't let the door hit your bum.
>>4027811There's only so many times I can find new stuff out about Abyss and post about it like >>3777350 or >>3968767 or >>3976140
>>4027811It’s a mix of A - nothing happening and the series being deadB - the result of A being that only the schizos stat around consistently, which drives away othersAnd C - 99% of conversations being repeats at this point, because of A and B
>>4027816At least we're finally getting the Eternia remaster and fan translations are going well. Bamco might not deliver, but there's still something.
>>4022453Based and alan jackson pilled

Abyss bros we can't stop winning (except when it comes to a fucking HD remaster).
>>4033039>>4034380Don't try to do physical attacks with the Technical or Wisdom Style. They cuts down your attack stat by like half but since the enemy defense stat causes additive damage reduction afterwards in practice you can't damage shit with them.
>>4044089Do you expect news about a remaster?How silly! Here is the tv show nobody asked for.Jesus it's another pikmin 4.
>>4008327I'll stick with the PS1 version.
>>4044154Why would you expect news about a video game remaster from a US anime publisher?
>>4044274In general, not from that specific publisher. The home base decide.
>>4044150You basically just send people through Advance/Wisdom/Guardian to unlock Innocent. After getting Mystic Artes unlocked, you mostly just camp in Advance/Guardian or Wisdom/Guardian depending on your role, and dip into Innocent whenever you want to grind up skills.For example, Advance takes 250 uses to max out Demon Fang but Innocent only needs 125. Similarly, Wisdom needs ~84 uses for First Aid while Innocent needs 42. Very useful since Luca has some hefty requirements for his moveset.

What's with this revisionism about symphonia never being good? Is it just nonsense console wars when most westerns suck off the dick of the team symphonia games?
>>4050787Symphonia was the entry point for the majority of the playerbase. It's simply the most talked about.

>>4050899slop of symphonis
>>4050787>What's with this revisionism about symphonia never being good?The revisionism in question is playing it in this day and age.The story and characters hold up.The rest doesn't.
>>4051071We weren't talking about Abyss tho
>>4051071What doesn't hold up? A brainrot zoomer can't understand how the combat works? Boo hoo too fucking bad.
>>4051071I didn't like it back in 2006. I thought it was clunky, and I hate the cast. Funny enough, my favorites are Abyss and Vesperia, so my hatred of Symphonia has always been weird to me.
>>4050899Maybe bamco should ask claude to make a new Tales game.
>>4051383They made Arise, I think the franchise is overJust few more remasters so they can let the few remaining people retire
>>4051448Not even mad if they remaster the nintendo shitty console hostage games but holy fuck stop censoring more shit.
>>4050825Tales of Edna whoring herself out because bamco refuses to make new tales games
>>4051182Tales of Loli
>>4051084Rent free.
>>4051084Abyss holds up better than Symphonia though and even games like B*rseria and Zestiria
>>4052416I'd agree but story and characters can be like subjectively. Abyss and vesperia were a good upgrade but then again symphonia was a natural evolution of phantasia and eternia and did a good job of making the 3d transition
>>4052416Abyss has worse combat than Symphonia and Vesperia. Its claim to fame among the team symphonia games is the plot and world building.
>>4051182Not all of us, and not all for the same reasons. I am a shotacon, but I don't really get anything out of this series for that. None of the boys really scratch that itch for me.
>>4052606Not really. Abyss' combat surely is broken and way easier than Symphonia, but it also gives more tools to play and Overlimit isn't crap like Symphonia and the game doesn't limit your learnt skills like the EX Skills or S/T Artes.
>>4054325Yes really. Abyss doesnt even have restands when so many of its arts inflict knockdown.T/S > C.Cores/Chambers for a blind player.
>>4049580Racemixing with pascal to repopulate.

Tales combat is one of the shittiest i've ever seen in a videogame. A fucking simon says with fake action points. At this rate just do a turn based and close it instead of beating around the bush with "action" combat.
>>4058392You get as much out of it as you put inYou can easily get through the games by mashing repetitive braindead combos but there's advanced tech you can play with to spice things up. Bosses are almost never interesting though, all the depth is on the player's end.
>>4058392You can't say "Tales combat" because there's like 25 different tales combats out there, and they're all pretty different from each otherI know you're just making a bait post, but it's not a very good one
>>4059103>25 different tales combats out thereThere is pre grace and post grace. That's it. Or if you want 2d vs 3d.
>>4058642That's the point. The effort is basically not worth. I am doing a boss and say "ok i am gonna match all his weakness" my combo is ultra slow and he easily interrupts it every time, no cc grow, perma staggered, frustrating as fuck. Second time i say "fuck it i'll just smash it" win without damage. I mean... no? No fucking game in the world works like that? I am not playing a sandbox and "making my own fun" there should be a reason why i put effort.
Random encounters are practice, bosses are execution. Spend more time paying attention to what's going on in the game and react accordingly.Furthermore, in games like Graces and Xillia 2, while weaknesses are useful and they do encourage you to apply them, ypu should still prioritize combos that you're good at and can safely execute while incorporating that weakness. There's no point in trying to fit in all 5 weaknesses for example if you just can't blend them in yourself. Let the other party members chip in or something.If its Graces, put in an effort to raise all of your stats, not just Attack. They're all important, especially Acc/Eva.
>>4058642>Bosses are almost never interesting though, all the depth is on the player's end.That's nonsense. The randoms are generally the boring ones since most of them dont live long enough for you to do anything or its a game with a poorly scaled hard mode where randoms are worse than bosses because you empty your entire TP pool in like two fights.
>>4059213>Random encounters are practiceNo, because they can be won using any combo or strategy and they usually go for 3 seconds so no, you can't do anything during a random that you would do on a boss.>ypu should still prioritize combos that you're good at and can safely execute while incorporating that weakness. It's not a "choice" you have 1 or 2 attacks that have that specific weakness, i do that or i don't use the mechanic.>There's no point in trying to fit in all 5 weaknesses for example if you just can't blend them in yourselfUsually it's impossible i think by design boss often have shit you don't have. In any case, i have no control over what the others in group do and no, if i try to off all the non weakness attacks the IA breaks and they become useless. That happened to me to litterally every tales post graces (graces included).>If its Graces, put in an effort to raise all of your stats, not just AttackUnless you are talking about leaves, i have no control over it the titles unlock so slowly that basically i can lvl5 them easily one after another.
>>4059215Anon, there are four characters in the party. The likelihood of no one being able to hit any weaknesses on a particular boss is very small. Don't forget that red charge (the color auras that come up while guarding) can be used to help your artes connect.Also, are you using the equipment upgrade systems baked in the game? Dualizing can be used to increase accuracy or add extra elements to your attacks for example. Randoms are also generally seen as practice since you use them to get used to your new artes or see if your team compostion/strategy is working before the game puts you through the wringer with the bosses.If you want more advice, then you can consider these well written guideshttps://youtu.be/3zzi4_Ktl_Ihttps://youtu.be/DjgLh2KwI1Q

>>4059509Pretty staggering win for yuri huh? over twice of what luke got. I like Colette and estelle more than tear and rita.
>>4060425It’s a pretty old poll from back when Vesperia was the new hot stuff. I can only imagine how much more popular Abyss will get once a modern version comes out.
>>4060445I imagine it'll kinda pass people by like all the other recent rereleases have - I wouldn't expect much impact at all, just like how Graces was pretty much ignored by the larger rpg community (let alone Berseria's completely unnecessary remaster) Frankly the series is dead unless they make an actual new game. They need to stop doing these useless things already. Modern audiences are also kinda pusies too. I can see the more abrasive cast in Abyss rubbing of the wrong way with a lot of them - even moreso than they already do with people who've played in already.
>>4054682T/S > C.Cores/Chambers for a blind playerBoth are bad, but Capacity Cores doesn't limit you in the long term, especially in consecutive playthroughs. Ex Skills are miserable forever. Cope.
>>4060536>I can see the more abrasive cast in Abyss rubbing of the wrong way with a lot of them - even moreso than they already do with people who've played in already.Is it as bad as Persona 3? Because that's about as much interpersonal conflict I can handle in an RPG party without ragequitting.
>>4060711in Abyss people outright hide information from each other until its too late.Not to mention Luke gets tricked into blowing up a town and the party blames him like he was a willing participant.
>>4060718He was. Don't be a whiny little bitch and do things by yourself if you don't know what the consequences will be.
I love how all cheria's ribbons have veiled insults to asbel in their description.
>>4060718>we're gonna have Akzeriuth baiters every thread 'til the end of time
>>4060853>Don't be a whiny little bitch and do things by yourself if you don't know what the consequences will be.ignoring the fact that Luke was going with someone he trusted, as usual
>>4060711More than persona 3This guy's >>4060718 a schizo unfortunately, don't read his posts. It's hard to have a real conversation involving abyss without him inserting himself awkwardly into it here, and he's here all the fucking time, so I'd honestly suggest looking elsewhere for information about the game if you're curious.

https://luminatales.net/2026/08/22/sound-check/Lumina Tales finally updated their blog after 2 years of radio silence (spoilers: They’re still working on it, spoons permitting.)
>>4063778looks like they were forced to write an update what with the AI translation steaming forward and youtubers starting to pick it up. so far nothing tangible just a "we didn't give up".once again the lumina tales mod on leddit deleted the post about the LLM patch (which is actually playable) but left their vaporpatch update up lel. ridiculous how much grasp these attention seekers have on these communities. https://www.reddit.com/r/tales/comments/1vvg5wv/removed_by_moderator/

>>4064144God eleanor is so hot. Nothing screams "babymaking sex" like her.
I bet a lot of people when graces released went to the peak and at the final fight went full "who?".
>>4064144Ctrl+F5.
>>4064176Only in places where Rebirth wasn't released said "who?"
>>4064242The rest of the civilized world lol? Also probably you wouldn't even remember rebirth. Holy shit his NAME is "vague" lol.If not for my desire to impregnate Agarte i wouldnt ever care about that game.
>>4063893I'm convinced it's women nobody else would be this incompetent
Is this shit normal? I am playing the remaster and I absolutely do not remember this.
>>4064576yeah thats normal
Sexo.
Is lineages and legacies worth? I am kinda of burnout from this game i would engage it only if it's really short and really value.
>>4064694It's like 10 hours long. It introduces a new battle mechanic and lets Richard into the party. It's pretty generally agreed to be the peak of the game.
>>4064250>liking agarte out of all the girls in rebirthyou have terrible taste
>>4064701Hmmm ok then i'll endure i guess.
>>4064710Endure, and in enduring, grow strong.
>>4064716Does the lineages stuff add to ng+ grade when i clear it?
How did Sakuraba manage to get a 30 year gig making music for Tales despite having never produced a single memorable track? Is he the son of the Namco president or something?
>>4064576They were already in the Wii version.
>>4064720Yeah. You can't 100% the game without it (same goes with Zhonecage) and there are many quests + some new artes exclusively acquired from L&L.Game goes for Main game > L&L > Main game postgame (Zhonecage). Yeah, it's weird since Zhonecage was in the Wii version, so L&L was basically slapped in between them and you lose Richard in the postgame because he's back to being "evil" since the "postgame" Zhonecage was just there as after-credits bonus dungeon content.
>>4064720>>4064749Funnily enough, you can start L&L again at any point during the Zhonecage postgame. And it restarts L&L entirely, so all skits, quests, treasure chests, etc are also reset and available as well. Effectively, you can replay L&L infinitely.
>>4063778they shuttered and deleted the comments lolsome of them were quite brutal
>>4064144>>4064147She's cute and she does fun spear/magic stuff. I'm a fan of the short pigtails. Vastly underrated girl compared to the other ones from her game
>>4064752Yeah i was seeing that loop but i put it into the back of my head. Honest to god i am not a 100% fiend i'll try to play for the stories and that's all. I don't think i've ever done more than 70% of every tales i played.
I heard final weapons in graces have a shitty drop for the materials like 3% at chaos. Is it worth it?
>>4064956You'll be fine
>>4064721zoom zoom
are we hyped for tales of eternia remaster?
>>4065003>New trannyslation.Doesn't really sound good in this era and in this industry.
>>4065004but the berseria and xilia remaster didn't had any problem
>>4065005Dunno about that, did somebody do a 1:1 comparison? I didn't care about neither games but i know they censored shit on xillia. Where there is smoke usually there is fire.
>>4065007what did they censor in xillia?
>>4065016The comic prop moustache+pipe. Because muh smoking i guess. But, again, as i said, if they did it for one thing they could have done it for more. I don't think teepo is tolerable in today's years, also i want to see how they are gonna wrangle muzet in 2, eventually.
>>4065007>>4065016>>4065017CERO is far more obnoxious in 2025 compared to 2013ish. Sakurai was complaining about them turning all of the female models upside down for panty shots. You can see similar stuff in the anime industry when they had to go out of their way to hide Jotaro's smoking.This is also likely why just the one scene in Berseria got touched.
>>4065054which scene?
>>4065056The stab at the very beginning
>>4064956You don't need to grind monsters for them for their compendium entries since all of them can be found in chests.
>>4064721Most Tales soundtracks rock.https://youtu.be/771G25HrAOQ
>>4064956>>4065110Unless you mean the Zhonecage dualizing mats, then those are gotten from those "blue gauge tubes" by rolling RNG spawns for the chest rewards where you can blitz through each floor and avoid battles at max difficulty, then set the difficulty to the easiest right before taking on the boss of the floor.
>>4065433>Zhonecage dualizing matsYeah those i meant.
>>4065437They're easy enough to grab, maybe doing a few repeat trips per corresponding floor..They're a bigger pain if you're trying to make them in NG+ via slotting them in the dualizing pot thing. Horrendously low RNG even with the tomes and recipes boosting item creation rates.
>>4065312that is a slop
>>4065522You are slop.

Not a dissing but is there a non-mmo jrpg that goes autistically as tales with equip optimization? Between the crystals of graces, the equip galore of berseria and zestiria and other horrors. I am really curious i played a lot of jrpg but i can't think of something more autistic.
>>4066340Possibly rogue galaxy which is a PS2 action RPG that has a cool weapon upgrade system
>>4066085Sweet. That's the better one.

>>4064716Yeah but holy fucking shit this fucking post game is ETERNAL. There are like 5 minutes of dialogues and hours of dungeons. Will this fucking game ever end? I am starting to have berseria final dungeon flashbacks.
The fuck this bullshit fight is? No melee can reach her.
>>4064701This shit is the peak of the game? This 10 paragraphs sophie botched arc that should have happened before the fucking cocoon is the peak of the game? 10 fucking hours for the biggest nothingburger and some quips about hubert wanting to fuck pascal?
>>4069399if you're still fucking uphurbert to spamming scarlet salvo is pretty great
>>4069432Nah i just grabbed malik and pinned her to the ground like the bitch she is. That's stll so fucking dumb. I know you can basically spam hubert guns and cheese everything in the game.

Anyone have tips for how to pull off some of the combo commands in ToP? I’ve gotten down the easier ones like Magma Rift, Focus More, and Dual Kick.But the more complicated ones like “ Up-Right, Down-Left, Down, Down-Right, Attack”, I can’t do no matter how hard I try. I dunno if I’m just too slow and/or inaccurate. The D-Pad on this DualShock isn’t the greatest.
I would literally never stop trying to impregnate Edna. Every day I would wake her up by coming in her and every night I would cum in her right before going to sleep, which I would do with my dick stuck inside her. I would take some viagra before bed just to maintain my erection so that she'll be ready in the morning when I thrust into her like an animal and slather her in kisses. Part of our wedding vows would be to have as many children as physically possible. I wouldn't even care if she's already pregnant, I'll fuck her while she's pregnant and she'll get double pregnant. I'll fill her with so much cum every day that she'll look pregnant even when she isn't (which she'll never be after we're married) I would do everything in my power to make Edna as fertile as possible. I'd give her fertility drugs, I'd give her uterus massages, breast massages, I wouldn't let her go an hour without at least one spastic orgasm. I'll even bake her home made lactation inducing biscuits to help her get to a point of hyperlactation syndrome so that she'll be seeping out multiple quarts of milk per day. Which I will save and drink just so that I can tell her how delicious it is. I'll make her so fertile that triplets will be the minimum number she's carrying at any given time. I would literally never stop doting on her, I would respond to her every beck and call and I would cum inside her again each time she asks for something. She would be so pregnant all the time that she would literally not be able to stand up straight anymore even after menopause. Her spine would be permanently bent out of shape to accommodate a pregnant belly. Even after she can't get pregnant anymore I would just keep putting more eggs into her. I would clone her purely so that I can put fresh eggs from the clone inside her after she runs out of them. She would have so much progesterone running through her veins at any given time that even the thought of not being pregnant would seem alien to her.
New Milla figure to be announced tomorrow by Kotobukiya.
>>4084111Damn, insta preorder for me if they kept her tiddies big (i would also shop her sister if ever).
>>4084111I hope is a 60-100 koto and not a 200 like fucking velvet.
Real talk, I was gonna make a post about how how regardless of the rushed nature of the game, I find Xillia probably has one of the strongest ensembles in the series then I remembered Leia is a character that existed. The other 5 are very good though. They all bring unique angles to their usual Tales archetypes and have strong dynamics with the rest of the party.

>>4086772Wait what the hell the tits were bigger in the shadow version. Have they nerfed her tits in the demaster?
Vesperia and Abyss are great for fujos and faggots like me. How's Symphonia? Is it operating at the same level of ambient homosexuality?

How's Symphonia compared to vesperia? I've been playing vespy because yuri makes my cock hard and the moe factor is high generally, but the story is mostly a load of cobbled together garbage.
>>4093107Symphonia's story is better if also extremely cliché, "power of friendship", "church bad", "4000 year old beings are schooled by 13yo kids". But what it does, it follows through 'til the end while Vesperia is most definitely a "cast first, narrative second" game that kinda pivots here and there into random side tangents. As for the cast, it's a 50/50 chance which one you'll like better. Symphonia's is iconic, but I believe Vesperia's is better.
>>4093122I'm okay with cliché. It's actually pretty remarkable the extent to which vesperia's party carries it, I would have dropped this game like a rock off a cliff 10 hours ago if I wasn't pretty happy to just watch yuri run around hitting things.
>>4093107Combat is much simpler with much fewer artes, combo options and skills. But as the other anon said, the story works much better. It also makes much better use of the world map where Vesperia only makes you travel through ~50% of it.

>>4101879Ah yes i do like a fifth re-release of the game.
Started abyss as my first tales of game. Is it me, or does the combat feel off? Like I press attack but there's a delay? It almost feels semi-automatic and I can see that in the artes menu but I cant turn it off.
>>4110836Tales are jrpg fighting games. The combat always feels kinda ass in the begining because you're drip fed techniques and artes. Abyss is more lauded for its character development and story so you could pick a other one if you want a better combat system

Petite girls are so much fun to fuck
Thoughts on Anise?
>>4112121Sexo. Plap. Get pregnant.
>>4096048don't be rude
>>4112121Okay? She's decent to play as, enough that I'd put her third behind Guy/Luke, but that's also not saying much given the small size of the cast and how lame the casters are. It genuinely helps that she's brown that's a big part of her appeal>>4110931I'm not a huge fan of Abyss' combat if I'm being honest. Even if it's a bit more stripped down I'd rather play Symphonia's because it feels better and more characters are less dogshit to control
>>4112427Anise benefits a lot from Free Run Spell canceling.She gets a ton of tools so she can fill a variety of roles and both of her MA are very useful. Specially Fever Time for the many boss battles which have multiple foes. On the minus side her hurtboxes are huge and bad and she is slower than other characters.I would say the most fun characters to use are her, Guy and Asch in no particular order.
>>4112444>Aschcome on anon. You have him for one dungeon, and for some reason the game decided to give him stats/equipment that makes him practically unplayable at that point in time you do that dungeon
>>4112121bad gameplay design and hate how the party instantly forgives her for being an enemy spy the entire time and yet blames Luke when he got tricked into blowing up a town
>>4113188Remorse is the magic that turns Luke mouthbreathers into autists
>>4113191Anise was tricked, party forgave herLuke was tricked, party blamed him like he was an active and willing participant Double standards

>>4116182One of them shows remorse, the other one doesn't.>but he didn't do anything wrong! why would he show remorse?Because that's what an empathetic person does. I was at the grocery store today and the lady ahead of me had some sort of dispute with the pricing of something compared to the weekly flyer. When it finally got cleared up, the cashier apologized to me. The cashier didn't do anything wrong, she just felt bad that I was inconvenienced. That's empathy. Luke was ONLY concerned about blame. He didn't give a shit about the kid dying in front of him, he didn't care about what the party was actually talking about (which wasn't blaming him, by the way), he was laser-focused on making sure everyone knew he wasn't at fault. His lack of empathy disgusted the party.Any argument centered around blame is missing the forest for the trees.

Is berseria really that bad
>>4122297compared to what? it's nu-Tales. if you've played Zestiria or Arise you kinda know what you're gettingit's better than Arise and better than bamco's non-Tales anime gamesit's arguably better than Zestiria despite doing some things worse than itit's worse than most pre-Zestiria Tales gamesBreak Souls are fun to useskits are cute and presented well (prior to the machine-translated postgame)it has a bad case of "spam the weakness arte" which shows why the arte flowchart from Graces & Zestiria was actually a good thing
>>4122297No it has best girl Magilou.
>>4122297It's better than zestiria, which is not a great bar. The story is boring because it's so fucking long and it takes centuries to make a point. More than any other tales i've played (except zestiria, which, unironically, suffers the same problem).The combat is.. meh. If you are a shotacon, like me, it has some awesome moments but the ending does not deliver. Not a spoiler but i wasted my time, i don't want others to waste it too.Eleanor is great and i wish she could be the mother of my children.Magilou is overrated, don't trust the porn.
>>4122297Yes.
>>4122297very bad combat and dungeons (I think some of the worst in the series, even generic random ass caves have 8 floors easily), the story and characters are very good though, so it's up to you if you're willing to slog through 6 swamps (with no fast travel) to reach the 8 floor dungeon, and then go all the way back (no fast travel again because fuck you) just for the story
>>4122297One of the worst in the series actually
>>4122297It's mid desu
>>4121480Sweet.I hope they take the chance and turn this into some sort of must-have AiO patch to solve not just the framerate and acquire cool QoL features but also to fix problems that the different non-GC versions of ToS have.https://youtu.be/mEH6xGUMTzI?t=985https://youtu.be/Fq-NCFHQlcA?t=2543
>>4124528>>4121480>The game engine was designed to run at 60FPS, and the PS2 port effectively hacked it down by doubling draw calls, multiplying a bunch of things by 2x, subtracting by 2 per frame instead of 1, and effectively just doing every possible thing twice per frame. It is effectively running at 60FPS twice, rather than actually targetting 30FPS.Wild. I always thought it was a case of "old game targets a framerate of 30 FPS", but as it turns out truth is sometimes stranger than fiction.
>>4124581i've never understood why they even did this in the first place considering all the other ps2 Tales are 60fps AND Symphonia was already 60fps on gamecubethere must have been some optimization issue when porting it but surely they could've done something about it. by refusing to do it correctly they fucked up the entire future of Symphonia ports
Play Tales of Xillia.
>>4125472is the remaster like 20?and whens remaster 2I'm ready to play remaster xillia2 and ps3 xillia2 at the same timelike i did with graces
>>4125385The GC is stronger than the PS2, and the PS2 has (much like the PS3), special snowflake-tier hardware like the so called "Emotion Engine".Maybe Tales Studio hadn't fully figured out how it all worked by the time they were tasked with porting Sypmphonia or something?
>>4125302I love my wife so much it's unreal.
We moved away too quickly from the fact that Crestoria had a yandere loli voiced by Yuuki Aoi.>Rays died before she became playableWould be nice if we got a non-mobile remake of Crestoria like a lot of dead Japanese mobile games are getting nowadays. But Namco has zero business sense nor any interest in the series so probably not.

>>4126698Pretty sure she was playable alongside those two white haired Fujos
Eternia is out in five days and no EN phsyical? is it because of copyright issues due to the name Eternia?
>>4127403ty, the switch1 version seems to be better
>>4128000The copyright issues are a nothingburger since it's no longer called Destiny II. Most likely just Bamco being cheap since it's a 20 year old game that they know won't bring in TONS of sales.>>4128001Switch 2 just has bigger resolution and S1 compatibility. That's it. And we've had smaller resolutions before this, so the increased size is pretty useless.
i'm sure there'll be an import over at amazon. they usually do that. i wish play asia could accept amazon.

>>4071464>Ymir ForrestBased he probably caused many people to abandon this game
>>4128258>he doesn't know
Yeah I couldn't be assed to reply but as a whole Tales has more of an story with introducing character from previous games so I don't think it would be that big of a deal like with Resonance. Crossover shit is pretty ingrained in the franchise's DNA. Cameo battles, the Radiant Mythology games, the TalesFes events etc
>>4128904But where's Kongman???
Wtf isn’t america not getting the deluxe version?
>>4129578>kongman the swordian wielder

Thoughts on Tales sister series, Star Ocean?I think it does a whole bunch of things well, I just wish the combat was better.Anamnesis was fun too.
>>4130613It's interesting to play the SNES versions of Phantasia & SO1 back to back to see all of the similarities between them in their original forms.I'm very fond of the PSP versions of SO1 & 2, love the Production IG openings and character designs. The newer remasters of 1 & 2 are a downgrade.And yeah, the skill system and nonlinearity are nice but they're lacking as action games.No thoughts on Anamnesis, I don't play phone games
>>4130613havent played emthink i downloaded one of em when it was like ps+ pass thing free game whatever never got to itplayed trails in the sky 1st chapeter recently, prologue was godawfully boring, gets slightly better after that
>>4130613Whats this from ?
>>4130661Character is Meracle from Star Ocean 4.Model/screenshot is from Anamnesis, which is a now defunct Star Ocean mobile game.
>>4130686I wonder if theres any Model Rip of it
>>4130689There is/was someone who ripped most of the models on DeviantArt. Not sure if they are still up.
>>4130692Found it. Thanks.
>>4130698Do you plan to do anything with the model?
I just finished Narikiri Dungeon X with the forbidden translation and I must say the game is absolute trash. Don't play it.At first the game seemed to have a lot in common with Tales of Symphonia Dawn of the New World, a game I actually liked,>A male and a female protagonist>You meet and get joined by the protagonists of the previous games>There are monster capture mechanicsbut oh boy NDX turned out to be much worse.>Except for the first and last dungeon. All others are just copied from Tales of Phantasia. Often you have to do the identical puzzles as in ToP. Even the dungeons that were supposed to be on Dhaos homeplanet use identical designs as some from ToP with no explanation.>The costume system was lots of hot air. There are like 40 costume per character but most are just recolered/upgraded versions of others so realistically there. Factor in the elment system (see below) and there really aren't much customization options.>Every dungeon featured almost exclusively enemies of one element and every costume resists one element while giving artes that are effective against the element the costume resists. Leading to obvious choice of costumes for each dungeon.>The game replaced/renamed TP with EBG which fills very quickly whenever you hit the enemy. In practice this means you have basically infinite TP/EBG if you use multi-hit artes/spells which made the game absolutely piss easy on hard mode. Since Mint can heal infinitely there is no possible way to lose any battle after she joins.>The monster taming parts seemed useless. You have only 2 party slots not counting Dio/Mel who you will never remove anyway and Mint (Infinite Healing spam), Arche (Infinite spam of all damage spells) and Cless all seemed to be so much stronger than any monster.>The game locks some content behind Newgame+ but I will not bother with this. The gamefaqs guide says it's just reuses dungeons from the main game (and therefore ToP) in different colors.
>>4130717none of this greentext matters to methe "content" of every tales game is just fodder for doing cool combos and NDX has cool combos galore

Gonna go through Hearts R for this first time.I know this is past the "missables everywhere" era of Tales but if you guys have any guides to recommend for side-quests and stuff I would appreciate it.
>>4131520Half the game is locked behind newgame+ so just beat it once without worrying about anything first.
>>4015911>>4016072Berseria is a piece of shit and people give it a pass because of the cast…which is ok at best. Certainly the game’s strongest point, sure.
Why is Reid so lazy?
why is meredy so sexy
>>4131686because you're racist
Oh, they built a grade shop into the remaster since Eternia was a pre-grade shop game. I mean they call it the boost menu but it's basically all GS functions
Phantasia might be next due speculation of the trophy or achievement on eternia beating cress.
Just copy and paste the stupid achievement you dumb vagueposter.>Certified Protagonist: Proof you defeated an Albane School swordsman. For more details, check out Tales of Phantasia!That's it? I think you are reading too much into it.
>>4131191why are they shitting on it this time?>>4130827i second this, any censorhip for eternia remaster?
>Tales Quiz in Eternia >All the questions are pertaining to games that got a remaster in the last decade (+Arise)
>>4131524the one sidequest? and you can continue after the credits you dont need ng+ for anything but the grade shop iirc.>>4131520there are missableshttps://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/vita/687871-tales-of-hearts-r/faqs
>>4131191did anyone ever scan the rays artbook?
>>4131729>Eternia was a pre-grade shop gamethe last one, Destiny 2 invented the grade shop
>>4132142It's on the usual panda site. Even the non-panda one has both the memorial book and character designs book.
>>4131334Is the original Japanese version similar to this remaster or maybe even better?
>>4132146And it SUCKS in that game because grade earned doesn't carry over to the next playthrough if it's spent, on top of everything being super expensive.
>>4131803That feels like a standard achievement for accomplishing something important?I mean, Cress has had a cameo fight in Eternia since the orignal PS1 version.
>>4131820>For more details, check out Tales of Phantasia!That's not included in the achievement's description, is it?That'd be hilarious given how the only official releases of ToP with an english translation are the shitty GBA version and the shitty unplayable iOS version.
>>4132861
>>4132986Why are they like this.
What the fuck is the combat balancing in this game?They definitely addressed the more sluggish aspects that people didn't like in Destiny and Phantasia PS1, like the magic pausing, but they really dropped the ball on defensive play. Everyone who isn't Reid dies to a wet fart. You get next to no i-frames in this game, so if an enemy manages to get behind Reid and target any AI-controlled party member, they're usually dead in like two seconds. This is especially obnoxious when it comes all those skeleton enemies with swords, who can easily deal 1000+ damage with their combo attacks.Am I missing something here?
>>4133369Give everyone a Black Onyx. You should have done this in Phantasia and Destiny too.
>>4005324>skinny tranime girl moe-slopNever ever.
>Want to play as Farah >Shes still the only character that has any healing spells so the retarded party AI just dies instantly
>>4133421Welcome to the Eternia experience.
>>4133421skill issue + the mages will get heal after a few dungeons
The fact that they redubbed it and on some level retranslated Eternia too, makes me think no game is off the table for a remaster now, even the couple of JP-only games (except Tempest, because it's so shit it got demoted from mainline)
any censor noticed yet?
>>4133707None so far but Eternia is a really tame game, I don't know what people expect to find.
>>4133707Yeah the hardcore sex scene was removed, I can't believe they would do this.
Holy shit I forgot how fucking dumb the party is in Eternia. Usually you get one idiot partner member, mainly the hero, but everyone in this is a dumbass. Once there's a situation Keele can't explain with a book the party just becomes Spongebob and Patrick holding the Orb of Confusion
>>4133707The more time goes by, the more I hate Fire Emblem Fates' localization for destroying the discourse around every new translated release.
>>4130997It's input-reading, no skill matter, BULLSHIT game
>>4133806treehouse singlehandedly managed to put the fear of unnecessary censorship into everyone's minds because they were scared of having a fucking face touching minigame, and the funny part is that if they'd left that part complaints wouldn't have been as loud
>>4133956I mean, on one hand, I kind of get it. Fates was otaku slop on a level that Fire Emblem had never been up to that point. Nintendo of America marketing execs probably felt like they had to "clean up" the game to avoid controversy among all the soccer moms that bought games for their kids. Granted, it doesn't explain all the other fuckups in that game's localization, but it definitely explains most of the censorship.But holy fuck did all the scrutiny on that game absolutely mindbreak people when it comes to censorship. And the saddest part is that half these motherfuckers don't actually care when a game without censorship is released. You got decensored hentai games coming out on Steam with little to no fanfare from these guys, but god forbid you can't upskirt a girl in a T-rated JRPG. Schizo shit of the highest caliber.
>>4133804I know most romances in Tales are prevented by the guy being oblivious but the only thing stopping Keele from being absolutely BALLS DEEP in Meredy is he fluctuates between can't get a clue and is too nervous when he does.
>>4133421Give Meredy this combination of Greater Craymels>Undine, Gnome, Volt, Maxwell, ShadowShe will be a giga healer/buffer, and with each one she gets better
>>4134023Anon, they're probably not even out of Inferia yet.
>>4134028You'll already have Undine, she's literally the first one
>>4133689DotNW (KoR) already exists.But the new localization really does open the floodgates to JP-only entries.
>>4133804>reid is a country hick>farah is a country hick>meredy is out of her element for a chunk of the game>keele is only book smart, not particularly street smart>max>chat's just a kidI mean it's a given. Only Ras technically gets a pass.
>>4134052I mean it's just them, the Infernians figure out the Grand Fall is happening and see it as a Celestian plot, and somehow no one thinks that if it's real then the Celestians are going to kill themselves in the process.
>>4134267Because the Infernians see the Celestians as hyper-advanced (because by comparison they are), they assume that if Celestia is pulling the planets together, they must have a way to survive it. As much as the Infernians act like the Celestians are brutal savages, in reality they kinda see them as this apex predator that will wipe them out if they don't strike first.
>>4134013>I mean, on one hand, I kind of get itI don't, and neither should you. Stop defending talentless hacks twisting actual creators' artistic intent.>You got decensored hentai games coming out on Steam but god forbid you can't upskirt a girl in a T-rated JRPGYou stopped to think perhaps people care more about the latter than the former, especially if it's a well established franchise and especially if it is indeed needlessly fucked with by some retards in California.
>>4134297I love her.
simply play the japanese version if the localization is badsimply play the old version if the remaster is badyou have the power, you have the choice, you don't need to stress yourself out and have a meltdown over it
>>4134340And i want a good remaster.Fuck you.
>>4134340>>4134343Literally no one so far has said the Eternia remaster is bad, you're both getting angry over scenarios happening in your head.

>>4134360He's replying to no one, he's repeating something no one else is saying. Who else in the thread is saying that besides him? Are you just arguing for the sake of arguing like someone who needs something to be mad about?
>>4134361>Who else in the thread is saying that besides himWho gives a shit? I am arguing with him and his shit mentality of "the translation is bad so learn an entire fucking language". No? Fuck off? I want good remasters? And if you are not him why the fuck you are butt in?

How long does Amazon take for physical imports to show up online?
>>4134903I was thinking Destiny 2 or Rebirth
>>4135097I don't think I could play ToD2 again without them revamping the gameplay and especially the grade system in some way, it's very much a transitional game and as a result has a lot of jank to it that neither games before nor after it have.
decided to download Eternia despite no physical and I don't have ways of ordering from play asia or amazon jp. considering SE sometimes has titles you could import on amazon from JP sellers, I don't see the case for Bandai Namco selling overseas versions.
>>4135105A lot of the supposed jank in Destiny 2 is actually more deliberate and well-designed than people give it credit for. Genuinely one of the best games in the series gameplay-wise, the only thing that really ought to be changed is grade being permanently spent after each NG+ cycle. I'd be disappointed if they tried to water down the TP/SP systems or give you overpowered equipment skills for free or something
Holy fuck Eternia must have the slowest start of any Tales game. This shit is a crawl to get to anything interesting happening plot wise.
>>413535990% of the game is running around both worlds to collect the great caramels. After you have them the game is basically over.
>>4135359Graces child prologue says hi
>>4133369Reid and Farah are both strong but Farah has a far higher skill floor due to her being Proto Regal. Meredy/Keele are your standard mages. Keele has fast cast while Meredy can puppet Quickie while casting.The two optional characters are gimmicky but once you get their actual best moves, you can do some degenerate shit.
I order digitally and next day there is a physical on Amazon ?! Too bad it’s the European import since it doesn’t have a reverse cover. Damn you namdai of Americahttps://www.amazon.com/Tales-Eternia-Remastered-Nintendo-Switch/dp/B0H9S5XW3H/
Combat in this game (Eternia) feels like I'm trying to kill a fly by squeezing it with chopsticks while I'm on rollerskates. So weird and slippery feeling and not satisfying.
>>4135561That's why I ended up lowering the difficulty and main Keele then Max.
>>4135561>So weird and slippery feelingyeah samei think im just gonna put it on normal just get to it over with
>>4135653I don't know why they released this after Graces F because it's so jarring going from how snappy and intuitive the combat in that game felt to the slippy weird clusterfuck that still requires precision in this game.
>>4135909i was messing around in xillia2 before eternia remaster dropped so im fucked for awhile unti lthat mindset goes away
Site was dead I played Eternia
>>4135561What always stood up to me about Eternia is the enormous gap in the speed of all the different actions in combat.Compare Reid "walking" to how he runs at mach fucking speed then his attacking speed.
>>4132170thanks>Even the non-panda one has both the memorial book and character designs book.i just found out there's both of these for asteria too but nothing for crestoria, guess they really wanted to memoryhole that game
>>4136183More like Crestoria didn't last long enough to have enough material to make a book for.
>>4136271surely they could've bullshit a 20-page booklet with concept art for the characters + game cgsseeing unused stuff would be nice too but unlikely
>>4135359In less than 15 minutes you're already travelling around the world. What happens in the first hour of most games?
>>4136076Eternia was made in the era where everyone was sharply different in specs compared to more or less standardized stuff in the newer ones. Even Reid's standard combo only has so many viable paths compared to the newer games where your swordsman can chain his normals in any order.
In the Tower of Mana in Tales of Symphonia the party splits into two groups. Both groups can and have to use the Sorcerer's Ring.How does this work?
>>4136590The same way that them having access to the same inventory works. In some instances, logic takes a backseat in favor of gameplay.

You stare at his every day, you hypocrite!
>>4138541Really, who wouldn't (both).
3rd of November is the Xillia anniversary live event. Wonder if there will be news about X2 remaster there.
>>4138811No, they never announce game news at those kind of events. Especially now that they're aiming for the global audience they definitely won't do anything gamewise at a jp exclusive event.
