I completely agree with all your points! I jumped into this DLC with 0 expectations and the thought of getting to see the squad again and the new music, content etc pushed me thru till the end. I wouldn’t say I was disappointed but I wasn’t super happy either. I guess I was ‘content’? But still the feeling after finishing the DLC is like 🥹 “I love these guys” 🥹 Defo would’ve loved to see actual novelty with the bosses, enemies (lazy like you said), but going thru the EX side quests to upgrade the Boost Attacks was a nice addition I guess. Also I liked how they highlighted the whole struggle between Renan/Dahnan and how each ‘race’ saw Alphen, and his struggles with the whole ‘hero’ name. We saw some humanness there. And one major thing I really wish they expanded on is the whole ‘keystone’ thing in the end. How did it end up there? What were the Helganquil’s intentions when they built it? How did Nazamil come to know about the masks? Some plot points that I felt were left untied.. But still, I’m grateful to Bamco for this! Thru the pros and cons 😄
The end points u made there are perfect I would’ve loved to see more info on the keystone. An extra 5 hours of good lore moments could have helped. Thanks so much for the comment :)
Yh agreed more or less, my main critique is that yeah, it was good, enjoyed my time with it, just not worth 30 bucks for the content we got, stuff like if Nazamil was playable, more dungeons, new Artes, it would’ve helped a lot.
The "Keystone" was the control center for the mosaleums, while the mosaleums were built to help Rena regulate its dwindling astral energy before the planets merged. The Helganquils built them on and into Rena so they also became a part of the new world after the ending of the main story. Nozamil learned about the masks in the first mosaleum after she ran away from the party. When you find her she's looking at a consol with images of the masks on them if I recall correctly. This is all explained in the DLC.
As someone that's considering buying the game since I was always interested in JRPGS but never really played one: should I buy the dlc too? Is it worth it if I still have to play the main game?
@huh5950 I recommend you get the main game. If you still want more after you beat it, THEN you should get the DLC. It takes place after the main story so you'll want to beat that first if you don't want to be spoiled.
When it comes to that statement Namco made about wanting new players to enjoy the DLC….How did no one at Namco thought that the new players will STILL have to buy the base Tales of Arise game for them to get access to said DLC? And they still will have to buy the DLC to play that. Which goes to this question: WHY would these new players buy DLC to a game they haven’t played yet? Shouldn’t they play the base game to see if they like it enough for them to spend that extra $30 and say if they do they most likely beating the game making that whole starting at lvl 70 for new players pretty pointless.
0:45 it's so sad people have to explicitly state that nowadays. They do have to, though. They have to tell people that it's ok to disagree, that the integrity of your personality is not tied to other people liking what you like. And even with those disclaimers you can find tons of comments insulting youtubers and people that give their opinions about fiction in general. What a sad world...
5:40 Man, forget that crap about new players. Just boost the max lvl to 150. Simple solution so the hardcore players will not lose progression in their status.
I got an extra 10 levels from maxxing out everything in the original game so I started at level 80, and while it was nice to do less grinding, it also made most of the DLC pretty easy, aside from the upper level solo arena fights and a couple "dream sequence" fights. For the most part I felt like I was just kind of going through the motions with the fighting and didn't really have to pay too much attention during battles. I enjoyed some of the side quests and laughed a few times, and overall I liked the Nazamil story, but it was really heavy handed and cliche in its overarching theme of accepting our differences. It all fell kind of flat with me, even though I liked Nazamil as a character (she's pretty insane, really). And getting all the trophies was pretty easy as long as you finish all the content, which wasn't any kind of hassle like some games. It honestly felt like a midway point between the first and what should be a second game. Nothing was really "solved" in the greater world of the game. Also, same as the orginal game is that you max out your skill trees but they keep giving you useless points.
Honestly. I’m fine with how nothing feels solved at the end of Arise. That feeling is meant to state that Dahna has long way to Go in reconciling it’s hate towards Renans. With Dolihem being the only Willing Renan in history to change this! Honestly! The Big Problems I have with this game is how the Execution of its plot is more “Telling” than “SHOWING” us what’s happening! And this goes for A lot of the Villain Cast! They Have No Underlings or Lieutenants who would pose a Threat! And that Lack of Conflict kills the Game!
Hey man really enjoyed the video! I just wanted to add though at the first 10 seconds you mention the dlc was announced pretty much 3 years after its initial release but the original game came out in September 2021 two years ago and the dlc just recently November 2023 so its been two not three and just thought I'd mention it but enjoyed the video and your thoughts!
Honestly, it's only really been just over two years and two months lol. I don't think you can really say almost 3 years until it's over 2 years and 6 months old, rounding up. The only reason I mention this is because if this DLC came out literally almost 3 years after release, that would be really pathetic haha.
As someone that's considering buying the game since I was always interested in JRPGS but never really played one: should I buy the dlc too? Is it worth it if I still have to play the main game? Mind you I come for some romance and character interactions to so Im mainly here for the story so does the dlc give enough fan service/expansion on that for someone thats gonna play the main story and dlc back to back without having the 2 years wait?
I feel like the Tales series is the most fumbled IP that has potential, Growing up I always thought the big three was Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest and Tales as far as RPGs go, now that list is very different these days and while series like SMT, Persona and Fire Emblem have seen significant growth and you could argue they aren't even niche anymore. Tales has just stayed behind because good lord the worst company that could have Tales is Namco :|
Great video as always bro and always appreciate your honesty, Sadly I had a feeling this would be a cash grab from bandai Namco, as much as I love Arise it’s definitely time to move on just hoping they aren’t stuck on arise kind of the same way Atlus have been with P5
I don’t think they’ll do anymore with this game, considering the budget didn’t seem big for this. Appreciate you enjoying my honesty bro thanks for watching as always
I don't think its high expectations at all, especially because Tales fans have wanted the quality it was once known for for 10 years now, and many diehard and harcore fans saw how the series started falling since Zestiria. I had my doubts about the DLC and didn't buy it. I knew it was going to be disappointing and to hear so many of the complaints and worries. It's sad that Bamco did it for money. I remember they announced that there would be no DLC for Arise, then turned around with it a few years later...it definitely screamed money, and its very apparent with what you've listed. I wish they pulled a Graces F and added new mechanics and artes because the future arc was amazing and that should have been the baseline for additional afterstory content.
There just doesn't seem to be a particularly compelling reason to jump back in. It's a story focused DLC, but there just doesn't seem like there's much of a narrative hook to it. I agree with Bandai Namco of two years ago - ToA is a complete game that doesn't really need DLC.
Good vid, bro, great job explaining your thoughts. I didn't know this was $30. Honestly, with all the reskins and same skills, etc, this shit sounds like it should've been just free, imo.
I loved the base game but I am not getting DLC. I hate that they give me color reskins to unlock in the game but have to throw half the game's price for costumes? Nope.
Yeah, I'm the story and characters above all else. I personally feel like I got my money's worth, but I still felt a bit unsatisfied. I really wanted it to be better, and I played Tales of the Abyss hoping to fill that empty spot and oh yeah, it delivered. Great review
Thanks for your honest opinion I was on the fence on buying the dlc but. Agree such a waste to start over what a grind .. really thanks 🙏 Will play next tales when it gets here This wasn’t stopping me from buying but really just game me the context I needed ❤
I never did finish the game but I did beat all the lords.. I was loving it til I got stuck tho I just got a lil tired of grinding.. I’m strongly considering going back at some point however.. I was gonna wait for a sale tbh Yeah it’s weird the decision they made.. If it’s been 3 years why not just come out with a direct sequel!?
@@Mintcar923 Because the Tales series' producer had confirmed both before and after Arise's release that the story was complete and they had no plans for a sequel, but fans wanted a continuation to answer some of the plotlines that weren't resolved (like the Dahnan/Renan conflict and how the two races can coexist together), which resulted in this interquel DLC.
I played this game using the co-op mod on PC so it was definitely a different experience, and fun too! It's a great mod. Fully functional local multiplayer like every other Tales of game.
@@SweisSenpai Yeah! It works so well that I'm shocked the devs made an excuse for not putting in co-op in the first place, only for a single guy to put it in themselves
Isn't it weird that you have to tell people to not change their opinions based on your opinion lol. I guess the only weird part is this modern idea that we are "individuals" - we are...to a degree...but to a much larger degree we are a product of our environment, and others, and those who came before. Okay thank you for coming to my TED talk.
After just finishing the game i will say this felt like cash grab. $30 is not worth it plus the outfits behind another play wall. I enjoyed the new music and some side quests, but it just felt like tedious fetch quest constantly, especially the main story. Alphen and shionne seemed more awkward together even though a year past. Ending boss was just a beef boss with too much health to prolongue fight. The story was interesting but i would have loved to have Vholran as cameo appearance, instead we got little tid bits but whatevs. The game makes it feel forced for you to like nazumil as character but i did not really care for her, she kinda was problem why everything happened. They could have made a great DLC out of this which made me hyped, but after finishing it i was bit sad and left conflicted. THE TEASE AT THE END WITH ALPHEN AND SHIONNE! BRUH. At least give us a moment to enjoy watching the characters. Mid asf DLC. Not worth $30. Hope they can build and get set for next title of series and move away from whatever this was.
We feel a lot of the same. Adore this game and tbh I had some decent hopes for this DLC. Here’s hoping the next Tales game takes all this feedback. Thanks so much for watching :)
I'm sorry, but I cannot disagree more with the fandom's opinion that the Beyond the Dawn DLC is a mediocre cashgrab. I loved my time with the DLC, seeing the cast and world again, and enjoying whatever the expansion offered to me. And the combat is still amazing, regardless of the lack of new artes, new enemies, or new playable characters. Plus we still get a few new dungeons and a couple of new bosses to fight. I find it kind of "funny" that some of the people who are complaining over the DLC having no new artes added also complained back then about the base game's DLC artes being locked behind a paywall via DLC cosmetics. So a DLC expansion not having new artes added is bad now? It sounds like the people who are disappointed with the DLC is because they were expecting it to be a new game with a bunch of new stuff added, when in reality it ended up being what it was always advertised as, an extension of the base game. It's mainly targeted towards Arise fans who enjoyed the characters and story and wanted to see what happened to the world after the final fight, not the combat fans who were expecting new gameplay mechanics or new playable characters. imo this DLC gets way more criticism and hate than it deserves.
I’m glad u enjoyed the content I really do! The story was even underwhelming to me so there wasn’t much of anything in the DLC which left me conflicted
100% agree. The DLC was what I wanted; to return to the world I know with characters I love to see the aftermath of Arise. My only complaint is not pkaying the wedding ❤❤❤❤❤ The end credit drawing wasnt enough 😢😢😢😢😢 I WANTED THE WEDDING AND SOME HUGS!
Great video as always homie! I honestly do have to agree with you too the DLC was very disappointing especially since they already had the perfect blueprint for a DLC in the F arc of Graces like good lord that section had stuff for EVERYBODY story fans and gameplay fans 💀
If we compare it with the Xenoblade 2 & 3 DLC (new playable characters, huge new areas to explore, new combat feature, etc), then it's really disappointing. Especially because it's the same price.
I don't think wanting more is a problem. Dang they couldn't toss in new minor enemies? Beat arise twice but even my brain is going nah I'm good too many things out right now.
I would rather they remastered Tales of Xillia 1 and 2 than this dlc. If you love this dlc (the reader), cool. But how long have the community been asking for Tales of Xillia definitive edition? Yeah, since before Arise even had a trailer.
that sounds like modern Bamco they seriously act like they hate the series and want it to die and only make a new game out of obligation anymore. Arise has always felt like an afterthought to them and it's really odd.
@@SweisSenpai I love it, too it's a great game they just never advertised it well at all to the point where I actually saw videos on youtube saying that Namco is killing off the series (they aren't) but if they make their fanbase think that for long enough it's going to have diminishing returns
@@ciregoku But Arise got way more advertising than any other Tales game before it. One of the reasons Arise succeeded so well is because Bamco actually bothered to put their money in promoting a Tales title.

Good review. And I know it must have been painful in your heart to do this. Tho the criticisms you have are 100% justified.
Very painful 😂 although still adore the base game and will talk about it for many years, so not the worst thing in the world
Its good gamers are criticizing bad DLC, we are sick of cash grab DLC
