Please finish this retrospective man. I know I’m late to the party but as a fan of the series these 2 videos are great work. Keep going man, don’t quit.
I didn't fall into the glory of Tales until later in my life, with Tales of Vesperia. I have gone back to Abyss, but have yet to get ahold of Symphonia. Loving this series, keep up the good work!
Tales series underrated. Thank you for this video! I've only played Symphonia and Vesperia extensively but I have tried the first SNES game. Amazing games the stories are great and the characters are also tremendous. Still listen to the soundtrack to this day.
@@jonathansoko1085 i don't know about you but the new games are very much still good games too (and this is coming from someone who likes Symphonia and Destiny most)
@@tedphantasia4387 They aren't "bad" games, but while the gameplay has been innovating, the storylines and the cast of characters have been getting weaker with Tales standards, regardless of personal like. Zestiria has one of the weakest cast of characters, not because of its lore but because of how bad the execution was for its story.
@@ismokemadherb4677 Some of the titles need more than just a port for many of the new fans to even give them a chance. Some of the old games are a bit dated now.
Honestly, the 2d games are my favourites. There's something special, experimental, about phantasia and destiny. Even on the psx, they have that snes-like feel to them, which is a plus.
I really enjoyed this. I'm a big fan of the Tales series, so knowing more about the origins of the team behind it was great. Thanks for your hard work.
It's almost a crime that the game and it countless remasters doesnt explain about Dhaos side of story. I also found him more interesting than Yggdrasil even if Yggdrasil is more properly written.
you probably dont give a shit but does any of you know a trick to get back into an instagram account?? I stupidly lost my login password. I appreciate any help you can offer me!
@Jeremy Milan Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
The original plot of Phantasia sounds quite better. Dhaos would have been a real tragic hero, with a downfall from mission to retribution. Thanks for the video!
Imagine if we've gotten the original Tales of Phantasia plot. I love the plot twist at the end of the game, but imagine getting an in-depth of time when Dhaos appeared
I still wonder how different things would've been had the Snes-CD released had Sony and Nintendo had a compromise. Tales of Phantasia could've had more content added to it. Meanwhile in another universe....
Reviewers loved shitting on the sprite based graphics. But in 2022 Tales of Phantasia/Destiny have aged amazing compared to many of their contemporaries that now look awful. I played the super Famicon Tales of Phantasia on my SNES mini last year and had such a complete blast.
I'll give Namco credit for positively adding the "Of-" to the series name, as well as renaming those characters. While the revised names aren't perfect, those original character names were awful lol
I missed this Tales This is my childhood game Sadly, I started to not like Tales of Series because of Zestiria main protagonist, Sorey makes Chester sucks.😒 Don't get me wrong, I don't hate Zestiria, I'm just tired of Sorey and Mikleo fusion that makes me realized my most favourite character bad.
Great work, I'll be look forward to future parts. If I can make a quick recommendation I would be much more willing to subscribe if you posted these heavily scripted/edited/researched videos on a separate channel because, and I mean no offence at all when I say that, I'm simply not interested in your live stream videos. I would be much happier to follow a channel where I know I won't be watching 90% of its content.
This has actually been an idea for a while and I've been thinking of just privatizing those and just using this as a repository for the produced content, so yeah might just do that and make a separate channel for VODS.
@@addedcut6872 Awesome, and again this is really great work. I wouldn't call myself a massive fan of the franchise, but this video was so well made that I couldn't help but watch it from beginning to end.

Honestly the most exciting thing is hearing the evolution of the "Linear Motion Battle System". We got;
LMBS
ELMBS
ALMBS
and who could forget
TTLMBS
Looks like a workout acronyms, with LIMBS
Wow 2 years since you uploaded it, amazing work man i hope you're still there and you can still working with this story.
I didn't fall into the glory of Tales until later in my life, with Tales of Vesperia. I have gone back to Abyss, but have yet to get ahold of Symphonia. Loving this series, keep up the good work!
The first 3 tales of series will always be classics in my minds. Love those games!! And I hope they re-release them on a new console or PC

This is really interesting to listen to. Can't believe it took this long to show up on my recommended. Love the video. Thank you!
this really makes me wanna go back to play the older tales games
I would love for some tales ports on the ps4/5
Do it, they are so much better than any of the modern 3d tales games.

Man, this was great. Keep up this amazing work! You guys definitely deserve more attention. Great, great stuff!

I wanna add Rebirth as well for trying to be different than the norm with their battle system.

Dhoas is such a tragic Villain he never deserve any of this

this video was great! thank you for taking the time to put this out

First seconds of music remind me of Key studio OSTs - Kanon, Clannad, Summer Pockets...
Glad I found your channel!
Really good video, I hope there is more to come
Fantastic job with this. I’ve watched some other retrospectives of the series and this exceeds them. Very well done.

Meanwhile in another universe....

We're working on pre-production for part 2 so expect it hopefully in the new year!

It's criminal how you have more likes on this video than you do subs.

Wolves don't roar...
Meh. I finally tried Vesperia and Berseria, finished the latter. Overrated.
Good retrospective, though.
I love documentaries on games. It's left to youtubers because snobs in hollywood only look down on gamers.
Great video
Great video
