If Berseria being some kinda spiritual successor to Legendia would mean another soundtrack composed entirely by Go Shiina then it better loving be.

i was there for symphonia and it was alright but i started playing abyss a while ago and i like it a lot more, and i feel like i'd feel the same about most of the other tales games once i get around to them

at least i like the music in legendia more than symphonia

Grace... was just loving disappointing. Unwieldly combat system, crafting that's more painful than Zestiria's but doesn't have any of Zestiria's strong points, and flat out the worse Tales characters I have ever seen where there is the least impact on the world for characterization.

i wish go shiina's music was in all of the amazing tales of games, instead of just a couple of the decent ones

it is cool, though, that he did his own whole style for legendia just because he realized that it was absolutely nothing like the other games stylistically

drat, maybe it'd be better to stop waiting for a pc port of graces f and just grab a cheap used copy instead if any more recent pc ports end up like this

symphonia is alright but in retrospect i don't really like most of the cast

There's a difference between "this thing is complex so we can all interpret it" and "this thing is inconsistent so we have to fill in the holes." Arguments about which girl is Yuri's OTP are better than this.

i don't think she said it was complex, just that it generates more interesting discussion than the more generic tales plots

i like how as we're in the process of bringing peace in the middle of a really tense political climate where people's identities and authority and familial ties are being questioned and religious conspiracies could plunge the world into destruction, the first interaction luke fon fabre has with his mom as i go to talk to her is giving her a back rub so she'll give me money

it's cool when tales games hire really good animation studios

i just want to use this as an excuse to say that i really love the cutscene animation in tales of the abyss, that was something that seriously impressed me playing through it

the war scene is cool from the standpoint of "oh, neat, they're messing with a really different art style" but yeah in the context of a video game with really consistent art direction it's kind of strange

At least that's not as bad as the second Persona 2 game on PS1 where no one on the localisation team knew about the alternate second route so it's not translated at all.

i didn't know they made a similar mistake with persona 2 that they did with persona 1

i'm glad the psp version of persona 1 had a better localization, and still kept in "mark danced crazy" as a battle line
