Don't worry about it. The info you had was just merely outdated that is all.

Tales info is not exactly the most mainstream when it comes to games.

But hopefully it does eventually come... i recall Troy Baker mentioning that he had done recording for new scenarios in Versperia (after PS3 ToV launch in JPN) so they did start looking at it, at least.

Me Wants

After the anti-climax Xilla was for me, I dunno not looking forward to this.

The character design so far is just not doing it for me, both those two in the trailer look about generic as you can get.

Will still wait and see more though, I just hope to hell this one has alot more area & enemy variation than Xilla had.

main character's are "Slay" and "Alicia/Aleesha"

Alicia reminds me of Ashe with a hint of Penelo, for some reason...

These battle animations look so damn nice.


i hate all the characters designs so far but the battle is looking decent. please be good

I'm very hyped for this. So this year Zestria, Xillia 2 and Hearts coming. Good year for tales I say

Laila's gonna drive me nuts.

I'm liking Slay a lot actually.

They're using the same animation for "Air Pressure" in Xillia, though

Hopefully they introduce some more party members sometime, because I agree designs are extremely boring.

Not paticularly fond of them all being the same age. There's no variation so hopefully we'll get another cool old guy or loli or something.

wish granted

Edna's a loli? She comes across as the same age.

Although I somehwat feel the loli comment is being somewhat taken out of context. <.<
What I was saying is that I feel adding "quirky" or "contrasting" characters would basically make the game. Sort of like adding spices to a rather plain dish.

The more I see of this game the more I dont like it.

So far the only cool thing are the dragon and the loli. The cast looks irritating as hell, they are completely generic. Characters animation looks decent but once again the surroundings look utterly bland and boring.

Going to end up giving xilla 2 and this a miss.

^well the character designs are done by the same person who did the original characters in ToS Dawn of The New World... that explains a lot

and apparently Xillia 2 is a lot better than the first one

Not feeling it with the latest trailer.

Yeah i agree the characters do look a bit generic. The battles look good though. But I'll judge the game once it gets released.

If they just put more monster variation and area variation into this one I can deal with the rest.

Xillia I loved the battle system when using Jude was so so silky, but got so bored of everything looking the same. When I think back to Ps2 generation and even that of Tales Of Graces f there was a lot of variation in the game.

Yea enemies were still tweaked and reskinned but not to the point where it became painfully obvious.

This needs to handle the world map way better if it wants to set itself apart.

but 'dem battle animations
I... actually like the character designs and artstyle

Edit.

New charcter "Dezel"

http://www.siliconera.com/2014/05/14/tales-zestirias-newest-character-dezel/

YES! This is exactly what I was gunning for, he seems so out there!

Also terminology for the game's battle system.

This game get more generic looking by the second bleh

The only character design that I'm not crazy about is Laila. I'm usually never bothered by things like this. I love the Tales series, but this is the first time I've seen a character and just find her to be totally Barbie doll looking. Hopefully her personality is great

Besides that, from the screenshots of the new character the game is looking awesome. You can catch a glimpse of the HUD/interface during battle. I wish I could stop looking at info for these games...the days when you knew nothing about a game and jumped into it with zero info on the party and etc....damn interweb and my addiction!
