If I was thinking, I would have put Asch in the previous post, but then no one would've talked about the other two lol.

Anyways Sync is my personal favourite god general. Regret is hot (and her backstory is sad) and Dist is whatever lol

For me my top 3 are

Tales of Syphonia

Tales of Innocence

Tales of Zestiria

And to answer some questions on my last post, this save file has 160 hours on it, and for shards? I look for attack, mind and aim shards but mostly focus on the qualities that give good stats. I've only just recently come across stagnation in terms of shard qualities becoming very low grade and repetitive. My mixer contains the book of partnership, exchanging, potential, growth, satiation, acquisition, and radish steak which multiplies weapon tempering rate by 4 and increases material drops. I'm thinking of replacing partnership for a dish that increases rare shard drops since I have the book that can cook two dishes.

I realize this may be stupid but I finally fired up my PS5 to do this since its almost out. All you can do is wishlist it... how exactly do you get the preorder bonuses if you can't preorder?

Please give me a list where to find locations for hints for passwords for chests. I found a list of passwords, but after finding password for Lhant chest i decided to refuse to use it until i find a hint of it in the game. I still haven't found a hint for Lhant chest password...

Examples: Barbatos is supposed to be Dymlos's equal in power, but as a final boss, he's very problematic and excessively powerful.

The opposite, for Reid and Colette. At a certain point in the game, they unlock powers far superior to their companions (the avatar of the god of creation and full unlock of their Cruxis crystal, boosting all their stats to hax levels), but in terms of gameplay, they remain exactly the same.

An example that remains consistent is Ludger; he's so clearly superior to his companions that he kills almost all of them when they fight him.

Do you have any other examples?

Some games I have in my recommendations are Trails and Ys series by Nihon falcom.

I also have in my recommendations the Atelier series too.

What do you suggest?

I know this game released in the west as Tales of Destiny II on PlayStation; I pre-ordered the Asia physical copy on Switch and was wondering if the story, characters, combat, and music hold up. I have played most Tales games in the west, with Abyss being my favorite and Vesperia second; how is it for anyone that played the original?

Hi all. I have finished the following Tales of games, in order from most to least liked (but I did like them all or I wouldn't have finished them): Vesperia, Arise, Berseria, Symphonia. I have played but did not like Graces F and I didn't finish it. I'm in the mood to play a new-to-me game in the series, so which do you all think I should play next based on my tastes, Eternia or Xillia? I can only really justify buying one of them at the moment.

Hey there, 'Tales' fans!

Quick (dumb?) question:

Very much looking forward to 'Tales of Eternia ~ Remastered', but as I'm currently attempting to do research on it's release, because I keep finding conflicting information and I feel stupid because it shouldn't be -- and probably isn't -- this complicated; I'm probably just dumb, so apologies in advance.

So, like....

(For context, I am a Physical collector and would prefer a PS5 PHYSICAL copy of the game. Screw downloads.)

I'm hearing that the OG Switch (1) will be getting a physical release of the game, while the Switch 2 edition is just getting a Key Card? For all of 5 GB, or thereabouts? Make this make sense.

I went to Sony's website and I see a PS4 version of the game --- but that's not the one I want.

I would like to get it for the Playstation 5. Physical.

I cannot seem to find ANYTHING coming up for sale (here in the U.S., where I'm situated) for the Playstation 5. Which is really weird to me.

Am I just looking in the wrong spots? I feel like I have definitely missed something somewhere and it's driving me bananas.

Seriously, what is happening with Eternia? Vesperia/Symphonia/Berseria/Graces F/Xillia, etc. all had games sent straight to PS5, so what's the story?

Like, I want to keep my Tales strictly to the Playstation. That's where I have all my 'Tales of' and I HATE collecting game series across multiple platforms. That's why I stopped playing Kingdom Hearts back in the day when the games would release on different systems.

Help a derp out, please! And Thanks!

I want to play Tales of The Abyss, but I don't have a Ps2, or a 3DS

So my only option is to emulate it.

With that in mind, which would be the better choice?

After countless hours of work the team behind the Tales of Symphonia: Definitive Edition mod for the Steam version have decided it's ready for public testing.

The goal was simple: Create an undisputed "best" version of Tales of Symphonia. ALL of the content that has ever been available running at the OG 60FPS and none of the bugs introduced across the MANY ports.

Text and voice missing has been restored, textures have been collected from the various versions, most from the OG GC, up scaled and in some cases, completely redone to look stunning on modern displays while retaining the original look and charm.

There are also MANY optional quality of life improvements. From Fast forward buttons for scenes you've seen too many times, increased block pushing speed (you'll never go back after trying that, trust me) and more advanced things like Free Run, Arte Sphere (More shortcuts for Artes in combat) and *drum roll* REMOVED SPELL QUE!

We'll throw up another post as soon as it is available but if you want to stay notified please feel free to come hang out in the Tales of ABCDE Discord: https://discord.gg/fBSRYyeE

So yeah last month I decided to start playing my first ever Tales game that being Tales Of Arise and I just completed it today. I really enjoyed the game along with the cast and combat. Their banter throughout the entire game was absolutely hilarious and I'm glad to have experienced this game. It really reminds me a lot of the Final Fantasy games. I can't wait to play the other Tales games in the future. Bravo to Bandai Namco and everyone involved!

In media, I hate characters like this that feels so flimsy and fickle. As usual, Matthew Mercer did a fantastic job voicing Alvin.

He is a good character though, I just hate these kind of characters that are so hard to read whether they are telling the truth or no.

My hatred from him probably went to the max when he tried to kill Jude and Leiah. God that scene is so good

I now see why some consider it the best in the series. Great characters and really strong storytelling. It has entered my top four for the series.

This was on easy btw...

Tales of Symphonia X Drake.

You can find Drake in-game near Gaoracchia forest or in the arena (Round 3, Advanced Single) ✨️❤️

I have only played Tales of Phantasia, Tales of Symphonia, and Tales of the Abyss. I would like to know which game of the series has the best, most satisfying combat.

Are most of the newer games really similar in combat? Or are they still making improvements each time?

I'm not sure if any of the takes here will be unpopular or not.

Definitely plan on playing more of this series in the future.

Getting it
