Yeah those gals in red were literally standing near every major boss, it was kinda odd when I kept noticing them. Absolutely a great game, I loved the teammates, the fact they added fishing, the post game stuff was pretty fun too. While it did slow down in the later half of the story I did breeze through it melting everything with Rinwells light spells.
The four previous games were all in the same engine,considering that Xillia 2 was a direct sequel and Berseria being a prequel to Zestiria and the last two were cross gen PS3 games from 2015 and 2016...why wouldn't they relase faster? The reusing assets part is the main point of how those games came out that quickly. Remember how troubled the development of Final Fantasy XIII was? Remember how the reveal trailer Final Fantasy XIII-2 came out 8 months before the game released in japan? Remember how because of assest reuse, Atlus was able to put out 7 Megami Tensei games out on the PS2?
I’m months late to this video but Tales of Arise was my favorite game of 2021 and I couldn’t have been happier that it won “best rpg” at the game awards of that year. And thank you Super Hambone for elaborating on why the second half of the game isn’t as good comparatively to the first half, every time I saw someone say the second half was bad I couldn’t understand what exactly they were complaining about, BECAUSE they didn’t go into detail as to why they didn’t like it. So now I can understand people’s gripes with it. I still love the game to death though. Personally what I didn’t like and really the only thing I can think of would be better closure of the other pairings Law x Rin and Kisara x Dohalim. And some epilogue text or whatnot.
a major problem with modern tales stories is they pretty much ditched the 3 act structure they had been using up to graces. zesteria and berseria were basically one huge arc and then arise seem like it's gonna be a return to form but it's 2nd arc is such a clear rushed job they should have just had 1 arc like the pervious 2 games.
If we could get a similar art style in Star Ocean… that would be swell. ToA was spectacular and it was well worth waiting for. Can’t wait to see what they do next
When I played Tales of Arise I could only win by grinding to level 37+ in Calaglia otherwise the 2nd boss always one shots my entire party. Also, the only way to beat the super bosses is to use the devil arms. Even on the easiest mode.
Yup, I didn’t have much of a problem with the game (I still have to make some time to finish it though) but then again I played the game super late in its life so I wasn’t at all in the loop with its controversies and whatnot. Honestly, Tales of Arise is the only Tales game I’ve actually played at/around it’s initial release date so I guess that’s worth a note or two.
Yup, every time I saw one I wondered why not a single character brought up the fact that they were there, especially with the first lord I was wracking my brain as to why “it” disappeared without so much as a twitch.
I like it and im not him. Im usually prety critical of things ans always use healthy skepticism. I. Elieve indie games apssionate devs and modders is where the real gaming is at
Loved the upgraded graphics, the engine, the music, and especially the combat. The story and the skits were horrible though. Sales knocked it out of the park so the franchise is looking good. The next game they make with this engine will probably be a lot better.
"fun combat" are you sure this combat is even good. for me it was so fucking boring cause bosses are like fighting a wall that occassionally moves. and mobs die in like 3 artes lmao. i was so bored i just had my friend finish teh ex dungeon for me cause i was not gonna deal with taht boring as shit
Several enemies took a bit of hits to get. It would be boring to me if every ebemy i had to fight took 30 minutes to fight. Which is part of why i quit some older school rpgs

i have to go back. i forgot where i stopped
Yes I love this game.

"yearly releases is always bad for games,"
RGG studios and Gust would like to know your location
Ya they're sht

That do be how it is sometimes
I dont rememebr havibg that issue for the first 2 bosses
Ill revirw my footage sometime
I’m slowly seeing more and more people enjoy Zesteria and that makes me happy

You did see the red women I replayed it and they were with every single lord
Bruh how do i not remember that happening a SINGLE time. I must have lost my mind that month when i played through lol

I loved tales of arise. It was really good and beautiful
My guy is spitting facts
The game is actually really good.
It's kind of like a love story
The fact this guy loves tales of arise has me second guessing buying the game.
I like it and im not him. Im usually prety critical of things ans always use healthy skepticism. I. Elieve indie games apssionate devs and modders is where the real gaming is at
it has nothing but the visual going for it

Tales of Arise more like Stories on a Incline

i was so bored i just had my friend finish teh ex dungeon for me cause i was not gonna deal with taht boring as shit
