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

[LukewarmHoliday]

Every million of theese tests there comes one that actually is decent.

ALSO AFTER ACTUALLY READING THE WHOLE TOPIC

Tales of the Tempest.

good

I loled.


I also really want vesperia now to see if it really is slower, and if it is, I want to see if it really matters.

My big beef with certain tales games(like symphonia) is retardedly long combos while the boss is stuck in stagger, I turned off most knockdown moves because I don't even need to knock down the boss for some item time since hes not even able to touch me. Wall combo gogogogogo.

Vesperia is pretty awesome. Yuri with the right skills is pretty awesome too.

[Irysa]

Yuri is clunky and has the most dumb recovery imaginable.

I don't care if I made vids to prove otherwise it feels like crap when actually playing.

The only character more combo-broken then Yuri is Rita though. And Rita doesn't really require anything other then a handful of skills and spamming Tidal Wave...

At least Yuri combos require a much bigger string of skills and Artes to get the desired results.

[LukewarmHoliday]

the most dumb recovery imaginable.

What do you mean by that, time after combo is done to be able to attack again? or how long it takes to get up/recover from a hit or what.

And even in symphonia every other character besides lloyd was clunky as all hell so that probably wont be an issue to me :/




Also, Tales of Vesperia movie? :| if so, WHEN WILL THEY LEARN.

What in the hell are you talking about? No, they weren't.

A lot of characters in Symphonia weren't clunky. That's one of the few things that I do consider good about Symphonia now.

I find the most fun person to use is Raven.

[LukewarmHoliday]

First off, thanks for responding to an opinion instead of my question.

I've hardly played any of the tales games so perhaps I don't know the meaning of clunky.

Collete was annoying to use even if I was doing good with her.
Regal is fine it's just very awkward getting used to him.
Sheena's ok I guess once you get used to lack of range.
Presea's saving grace for me is her stun resist since shes so slow.
Zelos/Kratos ok to play, slower lloyd :/ any order special attacks is always fun.


Lloyd is just so fluid, he probably broke my perception of everyone else

We don't need any of your goddamn sass since your question wasn't directed at ANY of US.

WELL, not GOOD. Adverbs describe verbs, adjectives describe nouns. Beyond that, Sasha used Colette all the time and raped ass with her.

Zelos/Kratos ok to play, slower lloyd :/ any order special attacks is always fun.

Zelos and Kratos are "slower" because they only have one sword. And I have to disagree about this either way, as Zelos is insane. Not to mention they can both cast magic, which is a definite boon (especially if you abuse the infinite combo glitch, which, with no spells, Lloyd is incapable of doing).

[LukewarmHoliday]

Common grammar mistake I should have caught, blah blah blah, stuff I already know.

No shit he's slower because of one sword. Just because I'm not like OMG ROXXORZ doesn't mean I'm putting him down. Zelos's swings can also cover a great area around him(Which aside from the personality is why I use Zelos over Kratos) and Collete's great I just despise using her.

The infinite combo glitch is unnecessary and boring with he absurd amount of stagger you give most everyone. Abusing it in arena is even more boring. single target bossfights are generally a breeze as long as they don't overlimit every 2 seconds, which you can also partially control overlimit.

You need to pick an opinion and stick to it.

Wat.

Also my opinions do change every once in a while, sorry I'm not close minded.

There's a difference between an opinion changing and changing positions in an argument when it suits you.

[LukewarmHoliday]

I could always blindly defend my opinions even after I notice that what I said/thought was too extreme or stupid.

Doesn't that sound fun.
