The Official TALES Thread (Sword Rain Alpha) - Tales of Berseria Coming!

lol @ estelle for roll canceling herself into god tier

You referring to the Eternal Support + Force Field = invincible Estelle (or anyone she uses it on enough)? Yeah, that is pretty funny. :rofl:

yea man that shit made me roflā€¦

so how does it actually work out, i donā€™t know what eternal support does cause i never got it, itā€™s just if you spam it out alot it stays permanent? or do u need a fixed amount of usages for it to get to that level?

Eternal Support randomly makes a buff permanent. So the trick is to go into OL1, spam Force Field and when they canā€™t hit you even after it would normally have worn off, you know it stuck.

I pointed that out to someone on GameFAQs and now everyoneā€™s doing it. :rofl:

i was wondering whether or not you were the same person that shared that name on gamefaqs

leave it to SRK to break anything i suppose

well now we can both feel embarrased that we post on gamefaqs.

I have so much hate right now for a character in Vesperia.

After Alexei gets squished by Zaude

[details=Spoiler]
Her name starts with S and rhymes with rodia (Not a real word but I donā€™t give a fuck right now.) Give up? Itā€™s Sodia!

Who the fuck does she think she is, stabbing Yuri Lowell in the fucking side like that?! I know she hates Yuri because he keeps cock-blocking every chance she gets to be near Flynn, but DAMN BITCH NEEDS TO BE SET STRAIGHT!!

If I were Flynn and I found out that my subordinate stabbed my best friend in the side, her ass would be demoted so fast sheā€™ll hit the grass and start whining like a little cunt.[/details]

Karolā€™s Nice Healing Smash is so good for front-line healing! :rofl:

lolā€¦ what you said

:rofl: That made laugh.

I wouldā€™ve liked this game much more if the story stuck with the whole Empire vs. Guild tension and Yuri vs. Flynn dissonance.

Hey, did anything special happen in the ending of Tales of the World for PSP? Iā€™m at the last dungeon but Iā€™m too lazy to finish it. Also, when is the second one due out, and is there a confirmed list of all the characters that will appear? I know Yuriā€™s in it.

I finally got yuriā€™s garm fang :woot:
Now to get the last fencerā€¦

I learned how to do mystic artes last night and completed secret mission 23 which got me the last fencer. Currently learning glory from it and combo plus 3 from the garm fang (which extends my basic combo to 9 hits) :woot:

Probably old, but hereā€™s a Radiant Mythology 2 vid: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/41519.html

Still stuck on the last boss of the first game. Iā€™m underleveled but trying to make up for it with the Fighterā€™s semi-easy infinite.

10 hits, if you hold the LT and do a Free Run attack after your 9th. Free Run attacks also cancel into Artes, so youā€™re good there.

Tales of Hearts now has 100% more cameos. Jade, Judas and Lloyd are featured so far.

Bumping to post this trailer of the Wii Tales game. The new hero does a nice line in kung-fu this time, including what looks to be a hadoken and a little shoryuken lol.

Main character looks badass. Iai-style swordfighting and martial arts, like they put Luke and Guy together?

Hell yes.

With a bit of Farah.

So Iā€™ve been playing ToH and itā€™s pretty good so far. A lot of voice acting for a DS game, and it doesnā€™t sound too badly compressed. Battles are pretty fun, esp since you donā€™t have to worry about TP. Enemies are pretty agressive, and I tend to get pinned down often. Also of note is that you donā€™t learn moves just by levelling up and move useage, you also have to ā€œteachā€ your weapon new moves via upgrading your weapon.

Well I finished vesperia a little while ago, got briefly excited at the idea of a newgame+ then deeply annoyed at the fact I spent most of my grade on tokens because I didnā€™t know it had any other useā€¦made worse by the fact its really easy to get tokens in poker and before I even beat the game I had so many I made the last fencer by pumping coins into the capsule machines.
So now Iā€™m trying to build up the endurance to continue to Grade farm with Rita (TIDAL WAVE! BLAH BLAH BLAH) but I usually get bored/annoyed pretty quickly and donā€™t get that many grade points. I also never got the upgrades for the ring/fell weapons because I stopped caring. It just all seems like so much work just so I can have an easy time playing through again, jeez, fell weapons donā€™t even transfer over ā€œproperlyā€.

That being said it was my first tales game since phantasia which I first played on an emulator and loved. It was nostalgic so I enjoyed itā€¦Itā€™s been so long since playing a ā€œlong gameā€ (in this era of 5-10 hour games) it was kinda refreshing in a very repetitive way.

Iā€™m wondering which of the other games are worth playing? I have a ps2 and a wii for ps1 or gc games. Iā€™m kind interested in abyss because of the anime that came out (but I havenā€™t watched for fear of spoiling the game if I ever get it). Is hearts a total dungeon crawler?
Ring a bell

Abyss and Symphonia are worth playing through at least. Legendia is ok if you liked the old school 2d plane battles. Abyss and Symphonia are by the same team that did Vesperia, so it might be interesting to see where Vesperiaā€™s mechanics began. ToH also had Team Symphonia people working on it.

On the subject of ToH, people have found some neat stuff in the ROM. Shing may have a hidden Mystic Arte, which may just be redundant data. Crazy Comet from ToD2 returns, complete with extensions, and people found a list of all the cameo assists, and they areā€¦
