The all encompassing Tales thread, Because some more recent RPGs don't posess the awesomeness. Options

Why the hell has no one thought to start this yet? (And yes Sturm, I searched, and only found threads for the games individually.)


Anyway, back on topic, I believe this series to be the greatest RPG series ever. The battle system is much more fun than say FF or Dragon Quest. I have played all but two of the games, including the handhelds, and I must say, the games have blown me away. I think the only other person at LCN who enjoys this series more than I is Ash.

My favorite game in the series so far is Tales of Rebirth(which hasn't been played by many Americans due to no international release, like most of the series).

I have yet to finish Abyss fully yet, so when I am, it might replace Rebirth as my favorite.



But I digress, this thread is for talking about the Tales games(all of them), why you love or hate them, which is your favorite and such, etc.


Now, begin.

Taking over half the game to get the good stuff is not enjoyable.
It's understandable if they're easing you in but past the 10 hour point there is frankly no excuse at all.

Ten hours IS the half-way point in Symphonia, so I don't see what you're complaining about. And I'd like to point out that having everything from the start is not enjoyable at all. I know from experience.

Comparison video for Yuri attack speed to Luke. Luke is slower. I'll make videos of them running as well if you want.

It's not about animation speed (but I'll point out that Luke has a much larger sword than Yuri, either way - a better comparison would be to Guy or Lloyd/Zelos), it's about reaction and recovery speed.
