      Legendia's soundtrack really took me by surprise, I agree. While Karma remains my favourite op Legendia offers gold on the regular.

      I love Abyss. My only issue is Anise, probably my most hated character in any game ever.

      Vesperia is great, but the villains are lacking. Compare Cumore to his Abyss equivalent Dist. Dist is a lot more charismatic and has more going on.

      Vesperia feels like it has the lackings of a game made with gameplay first in mind, as the plot is more structured to get you around the map and string encounters along than to really deliver a satisfying story. I always felt that the plot would have benefitted a lot from breaking away from Yuri's POV every now and then. Have segments where you play as Flynn and his two squadmates that put the empire and its corruption at the forefront. Alexei himself is laughable as the game treats his turn to villainy as a twist when the man appears pretty much twice before it. As a bonus Flynn would feel like much more of his own man instead of being second banana to Yuri

        People love to parrot this "the game only gets good at postgame" crap when it isn't even true.
        While FOF are a cool gimmick the combat outside of it is extremely basic and just manual canceling makes Vesperia run circles around Abyss' at any point in time. Just manual cancelling in itself virtually deletes the stifness one may find in the combat, with the low endlag allowing you to still be aggressive and have a responsive character. Just because you don't have effortless access to infinite loops doesn't invalidate that.

            I do understand that, while the battle primer does mention it it isn't a mechanic that is put at the forefront for the player to experiment with, which makes it all the more damning that the combat is essentially built around its use. They already have you perform these dull tutorials, might as well have thrown that in.
            Back when I first played Vesperia the combat did feel like genuine ass before I knew the mechanic was a thing. The fact that it only really appears in Vesperia can make one feel like it really just is like that, given the characters are much slower in movement compared to the Abyss cast.

          Frick off. Manual cancelling shouldn't even be required. Why does your default moveset has such insane recovery that you're forced to play on manual and do this every time you attack anything, otherwise you get punished because you're NEGATIVE ON HIT? Even then, manual cancelling does nothing to change the fact that you can't even combo most of your artes into each other until you're basically in the last act of the game. No one is saying you have to do infinite loops but being limited to normal attack -> base arte -> arcane arte or base arte -> altered arte for most of the game unless you're in overlimit sucks shit. You can't even fricking combo base artes into base artes until practically the final dungeon and it's pretty much useless at that point.

      Look, I'm a Legendiagay all day but from horrible encounter rates, shit dungeons, and OKish combat it's easily the worst Tales game. The story, characters and the music HARD carry the game which makes you forgive the flaws because you play Tales games for the characters first(or at least a smart person does, the stories are usually hit-or-miss) but as a game? Legendia is dogshit.

      Beseria on the other hand is coming off the literal bottom of the franchise that is Zestiria and put the series back in good graces with fans after a lot of them were abandoning ship. It has a engaging enough story, the characters are pretty morally grey outside of two exceptions, the combat system(provided you don't just use Velvet the whole time) is pretty fun and you come away from it feeling it wanting more. I don't know why/where the contrarianism towards this game started but you gays are trying too hard to make yourself look different to internet strangers.

    I don't get this. Aside from Guy, the rest of the cast is variants of dicks and c**ts, most of them are very unlikable to me. And Luke's turning into your typical goody-two-shoes JRPG protagonist feels way too force considering how big of a dick he was for the entire first half.

    the 3rd act seems hastily put together just to wrap up the story and is just a major frick up that sours the whole thing for me.
    the cast is also really bland except for Jade and Anise. I didn't enjoy any skits between them besides the 2 mentioned. Guy is perfectly represented by his name, and I'm not sure what Natalia's purpose was besides her connection to the edge master. Luke can almost be entertaining but they lay on his immaturity too thick. When he "matures" he becomes extremely bland, comparable to the MC of a generic harem anime. Tear is too subdued, I'm not into that, especially as the main girl. her quirk for cute things is like a thumb-sized squirt of pink on her beige canvas.

    It’s the only one I cared about the story in it’s entirety. I think Luke’s identity crisis is more interesting than anything the other MCs ever had going on. The rest are shit stories carried somewhat by the casts. When playing Arise I couldn’t give a frick about the awful story, the only part I cared about was wanting Alphen to get his thorny pussy

          Might want to reread the post before acting like a homosexual, i'm asking FOR a dual audio release, specifically the opposite of the conclusion you drew.

    Dropped game when everyone put all the blame on Luke for destroying that town when:
    >Luke is literally 6 years old and doesn't know anything about anything
    >The entire party KNEW about his powers, but they didn't say shit
    >He got tricked by his most trusted person
    >Everyone in the party has been shit to him, pushing him towards the traitor to begin with

    The destruction could've easily been prevented but they were too busy being dickheads towards the 6 year old clone. If they talked to him none of this would've happened

    I’d heard this one was pretty good, so I tried playing it. The game was way too easy and I was getting too bored with the combat to keep playing, so I switched it to hard mode. And all that did was make enemies have twice the HP, making it even more boring, so I stopped playing.

    You forgot best multiplayer. The FOF system is brilliant if you have a second or even third player.
