TheFinalEmblem Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 I don't have any Tales of plats yet, but I'm playing Graces and I plan on getting Xillia 1+2, Zestiria, Hearts R and Symphonia! You've been added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edunstar84 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 So how many of you have started Zestiria yet, and what's the gameplay like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFinalEmblem Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 So how many of you have started Zestiria yet, and what's the gameplay like? I've been playing it for a few days, and it's probably the most complex Tales game, gameplay wise. Honestly, I'd be here all day talking about it, it's really something that cannot be told easily.

fisty123 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 You've been added, and congrats on being the first Efreet. Yay! This kind of makes me want to start Zestiria to become the first Lord of Spirits but will hold off for 10,000 trophy, and by the time I finish it someone will have already beat me to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xillia Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 So how many of you have started Zestiria yet, and what's the gameplay like? Is there anything specific that you're interested in? It's kinda hard to sum up all of it. The fights are very similar to Graces, Zestiria brings back the qiuckstep meta and loses MP in favour of SC (Graces' CC, basically). There's also a bunch of new mechanics like Hidden Arte beats Martial Arte beats Seraphic Arte (... I forget the order), which makes it sooo satisfying when the enemy hits you with the wrong arte while you're casting and basically lets you insta cast. They also ditched the heat gauge and instead every character gains Blast(?) Points through various actions that let them use OP skills such as Armatization, SC regen or Mystic Artes. Speaking of Zestiria, is it just me or are some enemies WAY more powerful than the rest in their area? Every so often I come upon enemies that just wreck my party. O_o Like the blue wraiths in Yder Cave for example. They always come like 6 at a time and their Rock Trine-like Arte chips off like a third of my characters' health. The battles were so frustrating until I figured out that I can stagger then to death with Leilah's meteor rain. I guess I may have been a bit underleveled because I went to Yder Cave before entering Goddodin but still. The rest of the monsters there were much easier. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I will have to play myself to fully understand the gameplay. But it sounds exciting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh man, I had a nice little laugh because that is too damn true. I'm playing on hard, but still, there are sometimes these certain enemies that will completely wreck you, and the Wraiths are a prime example. Undead bastards. Also, great description, a lot better than I could've done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlver Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) So how many of you have started Zestiria yet, and what's the gameplay like? I think it's the funniest tales of to play to date, and I'm enjoying it a lot so far (18 hours).

I'd been wary of Wraiths since the first time I fought them but they were always the extra/side monsters and mostly only came in pairs. Yder Cave tho... a double Wraith fight is crazier than any boss battle thus far. Edited October 25, 2015 by Xhillia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I died about three times in a row at the beginning of that cave because they kept appearing. Eventually, I avoided them completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, I even started quick saving before fighting them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a water spirit woot! Xillia Symphonia Graces And hey I know it's nintendo, but what about Abyss? Anyway we can figure a way to add that one in obviously they don't have platinums, but there must be a way.

And putting in games from other systems would kinda complicate things, but I get what you mean. It'd be really awesome to have an event to just play all the Tales games, though getting some of them may be hard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
