I feel like Abyss is just more consistent overall (the first act is hell though no doubt there)

Graces has the best combat by far, but the characters and plot fall rather short even by Tales standards.

I'd place Xillia's 1 above Abyss but it was obviously rushed in a lot of areas (haven't played 2).

Vesperia is one I really liked but even I can't defend the final stretch of the game, otherwise it'd be my favorite XD.

Haven't played Legendia either but if it ever gets on PSN I'll get on it asap
I didnt play much of Vesperia but I watched my old room mate play through it. It felt like Abyss 2.

Xillia 2.....wasn't very satisfying imo. It had cool moments, but it lacked the charm of Xillia 1. And I personally found the weapon switch system and elemental system tedious. The elemental and attack charging systems were supposed to make the system deeper, but it just made made fighting already tough enemies annoying to fight: "".

Legendia is extremely underated. Imo it has the best story, character development, and music (this is the bgm of a certain dungeon) out of any tales game; the characters are some of the most charming, relateable, and memorable; and the combat, while one of the weakest points of the game, is unique and still fun, but takes time to get into: Senel's throw mechanic and custom special moves. The lack of hi-ougi /mystic artes was kinda disappointing though.

The biggest weakness of Legendia is actually due to a poor, budget based translation decision. The game is split into two parts: first half (maybe 2/3's I dont remember) is Main Quest/story and and the second is Character quest. Story and character development in Character Quest is just as good as the main story (arguably better), but focuses much more on resolving the personal problems of the characters revealed during the main Story. The issue is that outside of a few anime cut scenes Character Quests arent voiced.

Whatever happened to him anyway? Granted he was an ******* when he PM-ed me after my ban but I'm curious
I forgot about him. Isn't he the guy that took offense to everything like we had some evil agenda? It was something like that.

And it only took me an hour to reply. I hope the place ain't on fire.

Yep, that was him

Seriously, what's happening with the servers?

I thought Nintendo had announced a new character or direct.

Sadly, Smashboards just went and ate Mexican food and now has bad gas the next day.

I heard Tama recently discredited the Shovel Knight rumour? Is this true?
All I know is that he made this tweet...
First and foremost about this tweet, my intention is to not start anything with this nor cause any conflict with it. Everyone is smart enough not to flame him and stoup down to his level. If you do have a problem with them, at least say it in a friendly manner. Getting mad and raging are only going to raise the drama. We are human beings that have self-control, so lets act like it. Now here's the tweet in question if your wondering...
There was a problem fetching the tweet
I realize he should have said it in a more nicer and polite manner, but like I said its better just to let it go. I'm only bringing it up because he said something about us. That's all. I think we're a couple of grown adults that can handle it.

Considering people antagonized and called him a hack yesterday out of nowhere. I say this is pretty justified.

I didn't even know that. That's kind of harsh. Makes me feel bad for him a little.
Just curious, do you know if he disconfirmed the Shovel Knight Rumor like Kenith Kenith asked?

Holy crap I moved three pages without crashing! It's like my birthday and Christmas wrapped up into one.

I'm hyped for the KH event tonight, we're suppose to get an ACTUAL release date along with it.
Can't wait to finally play KH3 in 2019.

To be honest, judging with our past history with him I'm not surprised. Heck, this isn't the first time he announced his leave.
It's a shame some people here decided to be assholes, because I did find him a likable guy who I wanted to know outside of this Shovel Knight rumor. But I can understand where he's coming from.

I think at this point the best course of action is to learn from this and move on.

Oh boy...

Tama, only a handful of people did this yesterday.

Instead of you going, we should just get rid of those people or their attitudes because Tama did nothing wrong here.

So Lost World came out on PC today.

I'll be sticking to the Wii U version, but I'm really interesting in seeing what the modding community makes for it.

From what I've heard it's miles better for not having the Gamepad alone.

unfortunately that won't save the bad level design
