New not-yet-named PS3 tales game confirmed and no intention of bringing PS3 Graces to the US.quote:Namco Bandai has officially acknowledged the existence of a leaked Tales of title. Andriasang reports series producer Hideo Baba confirmed at a press conference that there is a new entry coming to PS3, but that it's currently nameless -- shooting down rumor that it'll be called "Tales of Unitia." There is currently no release window for the game, but some concept art was shown (pictured).

Xythar posted:Is there any other series where the publisher has been so adamant about denying an English release of almost every game despite a vocal fanbase? I mean we even got a Sakura Wars game, eventually. I can only hope the same thing will happen here, and some small JRPG localisation company will pick up the rights to Tales once the series dies and Bamco stop caring. They could probably save millions by just not trying so hard. They try and market the poo poo out of each game and it falls flat, when the 90% of the people who really are going to buy it are people who are already looking forward to it.

Samurai Sanders posted:You didn't find the transitions between the silly skits and wacky cute monster enemies, and Yuri murdering people and tossing their body in the river, jarring? I sure did. More so than anything in any other Tales game. Yuri did that poo poo secretly so that the rest of the team could still be happy-go-lucky. Its more about Yuri's character than the tone, in my opinion.

HondaCivet posted:Oops, I'm a little late to the Vesperiachat, hope that's OK. Does anyone have advice for someone relatively new to Tales who is starting with Vesperia? I haven't played many action RPGs besides simple stuff like the Ys games so the number of moves and such is a little overwhelming, and there doesn't seem to be a way to practice outside of real battles. Did you just goof around and hope for the best or did you find any tricks or rules that made the game easier to learn? Dont sell any weapons.

Policenaut posted:Also I just picked up a special edition copy of Vesperia for 360 (gently caress yeah evil GameStop owns, mint for $17!) and I wanted to ask if there's anything important I should know before getting into it. Like should I not sell <x> or <y> is a big event I should watch out for? Dont sell any weapons. Most skills are recieved from upgrading/synthesizing old weapons and not all weapons are obtainable a second time. Unless youre playing on hard or having trouble with a boss, I wouldnt recommend buying armor either, just use what you find. Save money for synthing weapons and wacky hats. On Vesperiachat, finally got enough Star gems to make the Last Fencer for my first time ever. This just mostly reiterated why I usually skip grinding for this poo poo ugh.

I would play Vesperia first, after playing Graces the combat in Vesperia may be a little too simple. Besides combat, I'd say Vesperia wins in every category.

Some Numbers posted:Don't sell weapons. Ever. Selling armor and other stuff is fine, but almost every weapon can be upgraded at least once and there are some that you can't ever get again. To go with this, weapons give you skills that when leveled up, you can equip them at any time. Fully level up each skill before upgrading them, some skills are lost when upgrading.

ImpAtom posted:Yuri and Flynn are almost exactly Lelouch and Suzaku, right down to Yuri shockingly murdering people and not believing in changing things from the inside and Flynn having all the characteristics of a traditional protagonist (including the generic Tales protagonist combat skills) and wanting to work within the government to change it from the inside. They're not 1-for-1 copies but they're really really obviously a response to Geass' popularity, which is further evidenced by Graces doubling down on it. You do know that Geass aired only like 5 months before Vesperia was released right? That gives maybe 2-3 months of overlap with final development with a series that was still picking up in popularity. Graces is just medieval Geass though.

Nate RFB posted:I'm a few hours into Graces f and the CC system isn't quite clicking with me yet. I'm getting through the battles fine, but I don't really have a sense of rhythm for it. Is it something that you just sort of get used to? Or does it feel more smooth as you get further along? In other Tales games, A-Artes would be normal attacks and B-Artes would be Artes. In Graces they make them both Artes since they both have a cost instead of normal attacks being free. Later on you get tons of CC and linking Artes so you can do all 4 levels of A-Artes into some B-artes and back into A-Artes without breaking combo. e: I dont remember perfectly and Im sure someone will correct me, but I think you can only go from B-Artes back to A-Artes with basic B-Artes. So you can go A-Arte to a basic B-Arte to Advanced to Arcane to Advanced to Basic and back into A-Artes (with the right skills anyway). KoB fucked around with this message at 18:20 on Aug 15, 2013 |

Wind God Sety posted:Honestly I don't see the appeal in voiced skits if you can't understand what the voices are saying in the first place. I'd rather just read it with the English voice in my head than have words that make no sense to me there just for the sake of having words. But whatever floats your boat, I guess. Words cant convey everything, even if I cant understand them I can still understand excitement/etc from the voice. It adds to it. Also unskippable text with no voice is murder to me.
