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.

No I'm not.

Then why act like an average person would beat Symphonia in under 20 hours without making extensive use of an FAQ on their first run?

And that's why your post was still saying four button presses for the attack when I got back from posting, right?

If you're going to argue about that, I was editing the post before I saw you post that at any rate.

Uh, no, because the numbers would be in the milliseconds, then.

The numbers are the length of the animation in total. The comparison is how long the animations are compared to each other.

The length of the animations is directly proportionate to the speed of the attacks per input.

You fail to notice that Vesperia's battle stages are absolutely, ridiculously enormous, even in random battles.

I for one, welcome bigger setouts. In terms of speed, I think that at level 20 anyway, Luke runs MUCH slower than Yuri. I see no significant difference between the speeds in the video I made, and at that point, Luke is somewhere around the 40s.


If you're having reaction time issues, then I'm standing by the opinion that they aren't any better or any worse than Abyss. If you really think there's something wrong, it might be the LCD on your HDTV failing to update fast enough.
