Armagon Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 (edited) I don't know how legit it is but it could be. Honestly, had it not said "leaked Tales game", i wouldn't have guessed this was a Tales game. Looks a lot more like Monster Hunter than Tales.

Silver-Haired Maiden Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 ... I was very excited xD I love the Tales series so if it's true and they've really bumped the graphics that much I'll be insanely happy (so long as they maintain good story telling and characters that is).

Rose482 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 I was sorta hoping they would keep remaking their games.....but oh well, new games are also FINE I guess. And plus I've only played about 4 so far, so....I still need A LOT of time to catch up with everything lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezzy Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Too bad it's only on XBone and PS4. I missed out on Tales of Berseria, because it wasn't localized in the PS3 version for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Bandai Namco probably didn't bring Tales of Berseria in the PS3 in the west because PS3 is kinda out of date right now and PS4 is Sony's focus before they announced the PS5 is going to be happening and Tales of Berseria is on Steam as well (you can play it on Windows and Mac). I do wish this game would come the Switch. I definitively have to say that the graphics looked pretty realistic than the the other Tales games have.

It was on the PS3 in Japan, and there was an official localization for the PS4, so I don't know why they couldn't have given us the PS3 port. I'm sure there's plenty of people like me who had a PS3, but not a PS4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrimpica Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Kinda looks different for a Tales game, you know? Also, rip for Switch owners who are Tales fans if real Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eclipse Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I hope that's a Tales game. I'm a huge sucker for them FSR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterIceTeaPeach Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 ... Then it was good timing to order a gaming PC yesterday since I do not own any of these devices. Anyways I am really looking forward. Berseria was the last main part and is still my absolute favorite. Even without understanding Japanese this game was absolutely playable and enjoyable and the only part I have completed 100% yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stroud Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Uh, that would be nice. Kind of thought like they would bury the mainline. Maybe they have taken their time to make something better. But o course this is still a question mark, but I would greet this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etrurian emperor Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I'm very skeptical about this being real. It looks nothing like Tales. Tales is passionately in love with its anime tropes and I'm not seeing anything anime on that picture. It also looks very high quality and considering Berseria was obviously made on a tight budget with its endless pop upp I doubt Namco would suddenly invest tons in a new graphics engine. Also, its still not Tales of Karlan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this time we haven't heard for a long time about a Tales of game, which is not mobile. And there is one other pictures which look more likely like Tales off. I mean this is also my hope that they say they put some more bugdet into the game and make something bigger out of Tales of.. Honestly this is something I would have wished for Pokemon, but did not happen. xD But that's another thing. There is also this picture floating around: Spoiler That guy looks a bit like an Edgeludger. But lets wait and see. Just a few days and we know more.

DragonFlames Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 If this is real, I'll be happy. More Tales of is always a good thing. The games have never truly disappointed me up until now, even if there had been the odd weak one (Graces and Zestiria). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabulously Olivier Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 That game looks gorgeous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiran_ Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Holy ... omg. I one, LOVE Tales. And two, these graphics are everything I wanted from a Tales game. It also looks to keep a mature vibe with that weapon/look, so I'm high-key excited and hope it's real. And also E3 and the Tales of Festival is so close soooo the confirmation is going to happen so quickly. 5 hours ago, DragonFlames said: If this is real, I'll be happy.

Those are the only 2 for me that were oddly lacking and less stellar. For me it was the whole, textbook, "I don't want to kill, everyone has good in them" hero in both of them that i just found a bit unrealistic and I'm hoping they stay away from main heroes like that!

I always find it interesting how Zestiria isn't regarded that well yet from a gameplay standpoint, that's the one i enjoyed the most compared to Phantasia and Abyss (the two other Tales games i played but couldn't get into because the gameplay didn't click with me). I said before that no Tales game's gameplay has managed to click with me but that's not entirely accurate. I liked Zestiria's gameplay but i only played the first hour of it so i don't know how much that holds. Tales of Arise (if that's what this is), looks to play similar to Zestiria from the screenshots so i might enjoy that (but then there's the issue that it's not on Switch and my PC isn't powerful enough to run a game that looks that good).

The thing about Zestiria, for me, is that the main cast wasn't as charismatic as the ones from other Tales games. Edna and Lailah notwithstanding, the others felt kind of "eh" to me. And then there's the main villain, who seemed to be out of left field and overall quite weak compared to some of the other antagonists. There is also a lot of potential in the world-building that was missed, something that Berseria luckily fixed. I actually loved Zestiria's gameplay. 2 hours ago, Kiran_ said: And yes.

Graces and Zestiria have similar problems in that their main casts aren't as good as some of the other Tales games, who had very colorful, very interesting characters. There are good ones in there, sure, but overall, I felt they were quite weak. Graces also has what I find the weakest combat system in the series. I also found the stories in Graces and Zestiria to not be quite as impactful as, say, Berseria, Xillia 2 or Abyss. Both are still very good games, all things considered. They just have the most weaknesses out of every Tales game I've played. 38 minutes ago, eclipse said: Then they should rush their Tales games more often.

Zestiria/Berseria replaced Abyss as my favorite. . .and by a nontrivial margin, at that. As a list of reference. Phantasia - 1995 Team Wolf Destiny - 1997 Team Wolf Eternia - 2000 Team Wolf (started to separate) Destiny 2 - 2002 (Team Destiny) Symphonia - 2003 (Team Symphonia) Rebirth - 2004 (Team Destiny) Legendia - 2005 (Team Melfes) Abyss - 2005 (Team Symphonia) Innocence - 2007 (3rd Party) Vesperia - 2008 (Team Symphonia) Hearts - 2008 (Team Destiny) Graces - 2009 (Team Destiny) Xillia - 2011 (Both) Xillia 2 - 2012 (Both) Zestiria - 2015 (Both) Berseria -2016 (Both) Ok, xD Interestingly Tales of Zestria has a longer timespan and Berseria reused many assets. And there is not to be forgotten that there are 2 Tales of Teams. Team Symphonia and Team Destiny. So even with the frequency most have been worked maybe 1-2 Years depending on the start. I tried to find out which made which game. xD Tales of the Tempest does not count btw, that is done by a different studio and its the worst one. For me I also like Tales of Berseria the most, the characters helped very much her the whole team is lovable for me. Most of the time I have 1-3 characters I just find annoying or not interesting. But Velvet and her Crew are my favorites. Other than that I liked Destiny 1 and 2. Also Rebirth. I find Abyss just ok and Vesperia has one of the best protagonists for me. I guess Velvet and Yuri are my two favorites followed by Veigue, (Veigue has the japanese voice actor from Link from OoT) xD I dislike Graces the most, no matter what excuse I cannot really like Asbel. Edit: I realize that I was false on some things. I was so set on the amount of Tales of games which have been released that I missed some things. Zestiria wasn't rushed and Berseria reused some things. Between Xillia 2 and Zestiria are at least 3 years. So depending on when the next game will be released it could be 3-4 years.

My experience with the Zestiria cast actually comes from the anime, which i hear some people say it's a better version of the game's story, since it did things like not kick Alisha out of the story. Though i will agree that the villain was pretty bland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zihark11 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 from the small amount of images it looks very different then the usual tales games. not to mention the game hasnt had a good entry since 2013. ill keep expectations in check for now but this is something for sure im excited for.
