Glad to see this has started. I wish they'd bring the PS3 version over, I don't want to have to buy an xbox just for one game.

Additional Coliseum content Everyone gets an extra Mystic Arte Overlimit Bar has 8 segments rather than 4 I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting.

I like Estelle. She's a character archetype that COULD be annoying, but isn't (so far).

Was there any way to set a cooking shortcut in Abyss and I missed it? I couldn't seem to cook from the end of battle screen (and frequently I wanted to).

I'm pretty sure the scene with her healing the tree is meant to echo a similar scene in Phantasia.

Right now I'm just nostalgic about how much effort it was to get everyone their correct portrait in Symphonia, since everyone had a dozen or so different emotion portraits from skits. Also I'm wondering if it's ever possible to do over 100k with Rita's Meteor Storm.

laod posted:I don't have much experience with the Tales series beyond playing Vesperia and watching wdarkk's LP of Symphonia. Are the main series titles consistently improving? If so, you all must have high hopes for Xillia considering how solid Vesperia is. Well, Graces was supposedly a bit more generic plot-wise and character-wise than Vesperia but using a superior battle system. So I'm not sure we can call it 100% improvement.

I hope the PS3 translation hack/patch/etc works on PS3s with the latest firmware, since I had to upgrade to play Disgaea 4.

Yeah Disgaea 4 made me update to 3.61 so I might be in trouble there.

Last Transmission posted:We see one in Update 29. Admiral H. Curtiss mentions that she is Krytian in his commentary. Though I didn't reread the update, so they may be mentioned in one of the pictures. Do you mean the video commentary? I don't see the species being mentioned in the text.

I have to wonder whether the "dual wield a sword and axe" thing is a reference to Dawn of the New World, which was in development at the same time and featured a character who did that.

Lord_Ventnor posted:If you all would indulge my anime-sperging for a moment, I see Yuri and Flynn as being similar to Lelouch and Suzaku of Code Geass, in that one is attempting to reform a corrupt system from within, and the other is attempting methods from without. Hey, they had an entirely different Tales game in production to stuff all the other qualities of Code Geas into. And I LPed it.

Xillia (the most recent one) is supposedly pretty cool plot-wise, and Graces isn't that bad I've heard. Of course neither of those is available in English yet.

Adelheid Stark posted:You know, Admiral Curtiss. You're already doing a translation. Think you could possibly change the scope of the project?And just entirely rewrite Patty's character? Or at least excise that thing about amnesia and put literally anything else in its place. No because at least 50% of them (being very generous here) are terrible sperglord japanophiles.

CVE posted:Yuri is just the best right hand you could wish for. Hopefully Tales of Graces has an equally strong and fun character when I get to play it in about 2 weeks or so it takes to ship it from the states. The main character's no Yuri, but the cast is certainly fun.

Admiral H. Curtiss posted:This is a pretty fun battle, but can be very hard if you're not prepared for it. Here is a run of it on Hard difficulty: (mostly fine but a bit sloppy at parts, see if you can count how many times I try to quick-step away from the enemy ala Graces and activate magic guard instead!) I have a feeling Graces has ruined other Tales games for me

(Not to mention the axes on the stick being swapped as far as in-battle controls. ) On the plus side, that LP I did seems to have cured me of any desire to replay Symphonia again.
