>"I want PS3 Vesperia!"
Vanilla Vesperia actually has more content than most tales games and while the PS3 version adds a few nice additions, it also runs a little bit worse and has a lower resolution
However if you still want to import it, a text walkthrough can be found here http://hyouta.com/vesperia/ or the English patch and information on installing it here http://www.talesofvesperia.net/

Having more human characters would be great but then you run the risk of making the cast way too big. It's a bit much to ask for 4 human characters and 4 seraphs.

I've always enjoyed JRPGs that keep the number of cast members down because I really don't like having 2-3 characters sitting in my menu never really being used, having just Sorey and Rose didn't really bother me.

What are Symphonia and Destiny? It's not an outlandish amount for the series.
>>
>>121978762
4 human characters and 4 seraphs isn't really that much to ask for.

>>121978880
Hearts R had 8 as well. As long as it doesn't go over 8 characters it's not really too much.
>>
Star Ocean 5 is gonna have 8 party members on screen at all times why can't Tales just let you have 8 party members again I'm not even asking to use them all at the same tine

And Xillia 2 got 9 characters.

More characters means more choices, who cares if you end up not using some of them? I'd rather have the choice to not use characters I don't like than be forced to use them because there's not enough party members. Especially in a game like Tales where each characters can play completely differently.
>>
>>121978973
>>121979043
Destiny has 10 which is the most in the series aside from spinoff titles. Honestly tough as long as the number of characters is at least double the number of party slot I'm satisfied.
>>
>>121979374

Maybe that's where I'm different, I really don't care about how characters play and would much rather have a smaller cast that gets more individual focus. It's a bit strange to run around with a gigantic crowd of people, I thought how Zestiria handled it was pretty neat in the end with you only really having two people due to how the Seraphs were handled. Story bits didn't end up overcrowded or awkward.
>>
>>121979458
>Honestly tough as long as the number of characters is at least double the number of party slot I'm satisfied.
Basically, yeah.

On that subject, what kind of characters would you want to see in the party for Berseria? For me

It's literally Zestiria's battle system without the CC.
Which makes Zestiria a completely inferior version of Graces combat-wise.

I assume that Team Graces worked on Zestiria? Cuz you know, stupid ass combat system, dualizing/fusion, turtlez and katz korner.
I want Team Xillia to do Berseria with Zestiria style story without the cut content.

Need a little help.

Wanted to play Abyss again so I'm trying to emulate it via PCSX2.

What are the best settings for the game? I have done the ff:

- applied the widescreen hack
- applied the Half-pixel Offset setting

But I think I have a problem with the sound, when I was in the 1st tutorial with Master Van, the music didn't change to the battle music. Also after the tutorial, my screen just stayed black all throughout.

Any tips?

Zestiria is fun so far. Just got Rose. The only problem is that it doesn't show everything. The whole "stall the boss while we complete the contract" between Rose/Hat-fag and Lailah was retarded as fuck. Why didn't they show the contract being formed? They just suddenly jump into battle. Retarded as fuck.

There were other parts with shit like this too, particularly during the war scene right before.

30. Bamco said that if they went with 60 they would have to re-work the battle system since it's timed for 30. Your actions would be lagging behind the damage.

Mikleo and Sorey alts are late game sidequests, you need to kill the Elephant in the desert for Mikleo's and find the new Mayvin after you kill the first, also in desert, for Sorey's
>>
>>122003481
You just have to kill the elephant Hellion to get Mikleo's
For Sorey you have to talk to an old man to Lohgrin to activate a sidequest, then head to Trizolde Cave and talk to a seraph to get the costume

I prefer normal shota with a trap costume (along with a cutscene/skit of them being embarassed wearing it). Karol and Ruca both had trap costume so it's possible. It's a shame Genis never got one but his swimsuit was cute.

For me at least, his skillset is just top fucking notch. Loads of fun physical skills, loads of magic, and fighting with a sword and dagger's pretty cool. I don't like his character too much, but his gameplay really redeems it for me.
>>
>>122036489
Director's Cut is fun and Leon is a pretty boy with a tragic past. I'd say that the FF7 of Tales is Symphonia though.

Gameplay-wise, who's your favorite character from each game you've played? Any iteration counts.

Phantasia: Londrine
Destiny: Leon
Eternia: Ras (too bad you barely get to play as him though)
Symphonia: Zelos/Kratos
Symphonia 2: >implying there's a symphonia 2
Abyss: Anise
Legendia: Chloe/Senel
Innocence: Spada (didn't finish it though)
Hearts R: No one (didn't finish it yet though)
Graces: Hubert/Richard
Xillia: Jude
Xillia 2: Ludger
Radiant Mythology: Magic Knight class
Radiant Mythology 2: Chloe
Narikiri Dungeon 2: Lightning Boxer
Narikiri Dungeon 3: Dhaos
Narikiri Dungeon X: Spearman Dio
>>
>>122039140
Symphonia: Lloyd/Presea
Symphonia 2: yes it exists but Emil is hilariously broken/fun to play as, he has a move that boosts his already decent speed and his air game is ridiculous
Abyss: Guy/Natalia
Vesperia: Yuri/Judith/Rita
Graces: Hubert/Sophie
Xillia: Jude/Leia
Xillia 2: Same
Zestiria: Sorey/Mikleo

I only played the original Phantasia and didn't really finish/play much of Legendia (tend to play these as multiplayer).
>>
>>122039905
Emil's fun? Admittedly I haven't gotten that weapon with hyperdrive but it wasn't really too fun for most of the game really. The game is just grade A shit most of the time.
>>
>>122033686
Yeah, there are a lot of areas where it would have been neat to see the reactions expanded upon. I mean, Sorey's gone his whole life being able to see seraphim, having his resonance literally beaten out of him probably would have been harder to deal with if he didn't have to handle escaping with Rose immediately. And on Mikleo's end it must have sucked to have Sorey unable to see/hear him after literally having him there their entire lives.

Well if you really didn't enjoy the game at all I'm not going to convince you otherwise, but Fiend Fusion + his insane juggling ability = overpowered nutcase. It's kind of like having those moments where you get an overpowered party member (before the story nerfs them) only he stays broken.

Hearts R: Chalcedony, that shit was cash
Xillia: Jude I guess?
Zestiria: Rose, idk though I don't really enjoy playing as anyone.
>>
>>122040741
Well, put it this way. I know it's budget as fuck. I know a lot of people hate it. I know the beginning is a goddamn slog. I hate that Lloyd and Zelos' VAs were replaced. I was angry that the voice director couldn't bother to maintain consistency. Regal's Mystic Arc was a joke.

But I enjoyed the expanding of the worldbuilding and material (even touching on Phantasia/Narikiri Dungeon stuff a bit), I thought Tenebrae was amusing, I liked the twist and development of Emil's arc (I really enjoy the stories that make more things fall into place in retrospect -- there's a lot of shit that seems like it's there just to be silly or explain things from the first game to a new player, but it's actually foreshadowing), and it some ways it gave some nice follow-up for the fallout of the first game. The fact that it addressed and cleared up a big plot discrepancy people had been asking about since Symphonia came out was nice, too, not to mention seeing the combined world map using Phantasia's music.
>>
>>122041958
Only some games are unplayable on it. The only thing I think you won't be able to do in Hearts is tapping the character portraits when they glow (not sure what that attack is called, don't have my Vita within arm's reach) but that doesn't make you unable to finish the game.

No one who gets platinums is a millionaire, fucking hot bitches, doing actual important things in life. Everyone who gets plats is a degenerate and getting plats is the only way to feel good about themselves, all platfags do is waste their life away for a temporary goddamn high that lasts about a week or so... it's a complete joke, getting plats is the most degenerate act man has ever come up with... it's fucking true, the only reason people get plats is because they're too pathetic to accomplish anything else decent in life, so they fucking get plats. because it gives you this temporary feeling that "oh my god I'm good, I'm the best in the world in this thing that hardly anyone else does." that's all it is, really. platfags are all a fucking joke, they masquerade around /vg/ like 'haha we're so cool making a million plats for congrats aren't we fucking special?' nah you're just a pile of fucking goddamn losers is all you are. it's ridiculous. People thinking getting plats is cool is the biggest goddamn meme on the planet. I'm telling the truth I'm just being real, everyone knows it they're just too afraid to say it. oh my fucking dvd is done, well that's end of stream. If I get a plat this run no one will ever see it. It's the absolute truth, it really is. You can pretend you're not, "oh, we're partners on /vg/, we make shitposts, homoposts", whatever but at the end of the day it's the truth. You know I just exposed all of platfags. It's a thing people do to waste time to feel good about themselves that's it.

>>
>>122042687
In Phantasia, when the game starts, magic is pretty much nonexistent and the Mana Tree Yggdrasil is dead. This is because, as they point out repeatedly, magic and spirits can't exist without mana.

When Symphonia came out, people were quick to point out that instead of just affecting magic and spirits, the loss of mana was making crops fail, drying up water supplies, and generally killing everything. The planet itself would die without mana.

Symphonia 2 addresses the change in how mana works.

Different anon, but as far as I can tell, you have to get the shop levels up to befriend the brothers who can make the mythril stuff. When all of them like you, they'll direct you to the brother that lives in Lohgrin and that's when the quest officially starts.

>>122050592
Well, apparently according to some background info, a person knowing a seraph's true name could potentially give that person power over the seraph, so they're typically kept secret. Entering into a pact with a Shepherd is supposed to give them the power to actually control the seraphim (though Sorey's not enough of a dick to do that), and the Prime Lord could also potentially force the Sub Lords into obeying their commands. So if they could just cast away the name that would make it too easy I'd imagine.

Who knows, but I like this idea.

Lailah starting their campfires or something.

It is sort of funny when they rag on Mikleo for not knowing about ocean-related stuff.

ToZ is a love letter from Baba(rian) to his love Rose('s voice actor).

-Rose's height = VA's height

-VA's favorite movie : Detective Conan - Assassin in the Eyes - (<- rough title translation)
-Alisha's DLC title: What Shows in the Eyes
-...Which turned out to be Rose, an assassin

-VA's motto: I am me
Rose's true name: Rose is Rose

-VA's favorite type of guy: A serious person with a rich heart
-Famitsu interview, Baba: "The theme of this time's story is the "richness of the heart" that everyone should have"

-Baba is called "Prince" by his surroundings
-Conan the Barbarian (Eiyuu Conan) -> Prince Conan (Eiyuu is Baba's first name, different pronunciation)
Rose's fiancee was Prince Conan

>>122052174
Edna did point it out. Sorey said he wouldn't do it.

Though I guess it would be hard to have a Shepherd maintain their purity when they're forcing seraphim into slavehood as tools.
>>
>>122052460
If you were to do that, what kind of character would you add to it? ToPX added a magic knight. What's left? Gunner? Greatswordsman? etc?
>>
>>122052361
Scale everything down. Instead of trying to make a huge game and running out of time, just start with a game of realistic scale and execute it properly.
>>
>>122052449
I'm not sure how much of a love letter it can be called when the prince dies within 3 seconds of screentime
>>
>>122052460
I actually wouldn't mind this if they did it in a modern 3D engine (maybe keep it around the Symphonia/Abyss/Vesperia level so as to not make it too different) and maybe solidify the story a bit better (if they want to keep Rondoline, for fuck's sake make her story make any goddamn sense please).

>>122052449
...huh.
>>
>>122052361
Try not to make everything Skyrim huge.
>>
>>122052654
Not really. That priest murders the shit out of a bunch of people and he stayed 'pure'. Sorey couldn't do it, but a more twisted shepherd might be able to manage it, further down the road.

The real problem is, how would such an individual become a shepherd in the first place?
>>
>>122052854
I really wish the whole "Rose was engaged to royalty" had come up, oh, EVER prior to that scene. Even if it doesn't tend to be subtle, Tales games DO tend to include foreshadowing.
>>
>>122053134
Well yeah, you'd need a Shepherd who was probably something of a sociopath when it came down to it, to basically use and enslave seraphim without feeling guilty over it.

Otherwise he'd quickly end up with a bunch of dragons probably ready to shred him into confetti.
>>
>>122053134
Someone could be pure hearted as Sorey but have twisted values they fully believe in, like the priest
Would be neat if there was a rival shepard who was just like that in the story
>>
>>122053190
Feels like a lot of Rolance plot they could have done just got dropped. Rose could have been recognized as the dead prince's fiancee by any schmuck in town, the hellions in the Rolance royal family could have come up, the Rolance royal family could have made ANY appearance, that fake asshole shepherd plot thread never got resolved...

I'm not even asking for the game to become more political, these are just complaints I have about the Rolance segment of the game in general. Considering how fucking huge Pendrago is, you only ever interact with two named humans from there, and one of them dies.

It's because I'm full of salt that I have a resentment towards everything else. I got this game purely for a Tales fix and homolust. I got both, but it wasn't what I expected.

Best way is just to run through the entire world map grabbing everything. You can check that number every zone to see if it goes up just to verify how many new ones you got.

That was pretty much my plan, but damn it sucks. I don't think I missed anything permanent if fractured dimensions don't count, but I have to go back through all the older areas now.

I want to see more of Estelle's noble wardrobe. Her main outfit just seems so unsightly for a princess, the pants anyway.

I'd like to see Estelle in some regal lady armor.

Once you're level 75/76 or higher, treasure chests will randomly start to spawn Mimic Giants, which give a lot of gald. What you can do is eat a food that gives you the potential for a gald increase (like the fried prawns at Lohgrin), get as many drop bottles as you can (also Lohgrin, might need to level up the shop) and start going to dungeons where there are lots of treasure chests to increase the likelyhood of running into one (like, Arctus and Ganglen Ruins have something like five or six chests near the save point, so that makes it easier). When you run into one, use your drop bottles and then beat the shit out of it for a ton of gald.

The idea is then you can use the gald for more drop bottles, and lots of gels to unload onto the Lords of the Land to bring up their levels.

I thought she changed into the pink/white outfit specifically was because it was better suited for travel?

Still, hell, more costumes at all is always a plus. Cameo stuff is fun but I like in-universe options too. Abyss and Vesperia were nice in that regard.

It's the fact that she owns it is all. Vesperia is a universe where fashion is actually taken into account so I don't see any reason why Estelle personally would own such a thing. The top part, yes. But it just doesn't look like something a princess would own.

>Shepherds

>Originally, the Shepherd was only meant to complete the relationship between humans and seraphim, and they were not involved with malevolence or hellions. However, during the time known as the Era of Maotelus, many Shepherds across various places took up arms against hellions, and calmed the malevolence. Those people who made contracts with Maotelus’ Sub Lords, whom were able to use the power of purification, were able to wield that power as well. Shepherds were then expected to shield the people from malevolence and hellions, and it became their mission to purify malevolence. The details about those who became Shepherds vary, however if there are people who saved the world in secret too, there are also those who lost their lives along the way, and those who broke their contract and quit being the Shepherd. It is also said that there have been Shepherds who have become corrupted with malevolence, at which time all of their contracted seraphim have turned into dragons.

not real, it's from a fanfic but the author of the novel ended quoting on his social media, everybody took as a line in the book
>>
Why don't we try to come up with ways to perfect the battle system?

>remove weaknesses/power hits
>can continuosly combo enemies but hitstun decreases as combo count increases
>enemies break out of hitstun by doing a special arte attack with a visible !! notfication
>they then enter iron stance with 10% increased stats that can only be broken by dealing 10% of their maximum hp in damage
>hits doesn't count during iron stance so you can start a fresh combo when it breaks

Basically when they enter iron stance you have to play defensively so you can't go balls out all the time. At least this way iron stance isn't so randumb as fuck. As it was in Xillia 1 and Zestiria, and can't mash buttons to deal damage, however you have to keep in mind which artes to use to maximize damage before they enter iron stance again.

Pls no bully, i'm bored af.

That the uploader gave due credit for. I'm sure the actual novel has been translated but the memeposting blots it out. This isn't the first time something like this has happened. For Kingdom Hearts there are quite a few novels that were written by the game staff as part of the story, but a translation is hard to come by so fanfic authors (before tumblr's time) simply uploaded it where they knew people could read it.

I'd make it so the hitstun is extended each time you use a new arte/attack in the combo, but using an arte/attack you've already used won't do any additional hitstun. So you can still do big combos by varying your artes, but once you've used them up you only get a few additional hits from the remaining hitstun.
I'd also do it so you have less artes, but they have more versatility. I like what Xillia did with having L1+O artes to have more slots, but ideally I think a character should have exactly 8 artes so you can set them all up at once. It's easier for the player and doesn't force you to use your shortcuts. You could focus on those 8 artes for each character and extend upon them. You could do something like they did with Gall having to press O a second time to extend the art, but on every character/artes (Press O after Demon Fang to get Double Demon Fang, etc.) You could hold O to transform it into a different arte. Using these two methods, a single slot actually lets you use three different artes and you can add air versions on top of that.
Rather than Iron Shield I'd just make the bosses immune to stagger for a few seconds after they recover from a combo (I think Symphonia did this)

No. I think it should have just been the main game. The party by end game would be Ludger, Jude, Julius, possibly Ivar (preferably optional midgame), a newbie who wanted to join the chimeriad, a great spirit and someone involved with Alvin's family.

I pre-ordered and I am entirely content with spending the entire game with alt colors and Lailah, Sorey, and Milkeo in their cameo costumes. Beachware and that skimpy costume for Lailah is nice and all, but I see no reason to actually buy it. It adds nothing to the game and there's no satisfaction to getting it like the special quests in Abyss.

Though it is amusing seeing people go "Oh! Those clothes! You bust be the Shepherd" while Sorey is dressed like Yuri.

Oh man that sucks for you. In Graces at least titles provided permanent stat-up/new skills, so getting new ones also had benefits in actual gameplay. These days I'd definitely choose based on the looks and the track (I really enjoy how some costumes change the battle music, personally), depending on how tight you are with money go only for the ones you like most. Harold!Pascal is something I'd pick up without second thought even today, for example.

Yep, and if its not an outright loss, make it ambiguous. I think Maburaho was the first anime I saw that did that. It's so terrible.
>>
>>122155615
I actually felt like Mikleo and Sorey had a relationship at the start, that they knew each other well and thought along the same lines and shared the same interests. With Leia it sorta seemed like she just latched onto Jude because he was there and she had no other direction (He's gonna be a doctor? Then I want to be a nurse!) and Cheria was too "proper" to act like a fucking human being while Asbel was oblivious as fuck.
>>
>>122157270
Leia doesn't even have a reason to join your party. You can remove her from the game and nothing changes. Fucking worthless character.
>>
>>122157369
I liked playing as her, but her story arc in Xillia 1, especially the "resolution" made me want to bash my head into a wall.
>>
>>122157369
I mean she was supposed to be a counterpart to Agria but that didn't really go anywhere.

Also she got shot.
>>
>>122156021
What about Colette?
>>
>>122157369
>cut fractured dimension in X2 was about just that
>>
>>122157603
You can remove Agria too and nothing still changes. I feel like these two were added later in development because they're so irrelevant. Milla/Jude/Alvin are the most important since the story doesn't work without them and their counterparts work well and explain some stuff like Alvin's betrayal behavior. Elize and Rowen are less important but they still have a reason to follow you and they feel like they belong, somewhat like Presea in Symphonia. Leia's role is like Mog in FF6.
>>
>>122157875
She lost. Lloydbowl was won by Lilia.
>>
>>122157603
The whole thing is, it's supposed to be like Agria's pushing and taunting of her teaches her something about herself, but instead it just turns into "Huh, this girl is mean at me for no real reason. I should learn to live for myself instead of for some boy. I'M GONNA BE A HOUSEWIFE!"
>>
>>122158278
Lloyd does not win when the end result is being pelted by tomatoes.

It's far more likely that content was cut than her/agria being added later on. It's pretty clear that the Chimeriad was planned to be 4 to cover the 4 elemental types, and each non jude/milla member was supposed to be a counterpart. The fact that the game just ended 2/3 of the way through after a single city in Elympios should have given it away.

Why wasn't Xillia 2 just what was missing from the original game instead of whatever the fuck it was? Like, Gaius and Muzét were originally playable characters. But now they're the final boss. If they would've been playable characters, who was originally going to be the final boss?

Actually DoTNW fixes up the canon a bit and even makes reference to obscure spinoff shit like Norn.

>>122158939
Origin probably. His existence is implied in the Milla route, they literally mention soul purification in a cutscene and then the entire concept just disappears.

Also Tatalian Abyss obviously had some important plot implications but had to be scrapped for time, so they just stuck it in the game as some random side dungeon. The fact that toxic miasma is seeping from some ancient place with elemental seals is just never addressed again.

Xillia 2 probably required some minor retcons and new characters in an attempt to justify an entirely new game, instead of an oops we fucked up here's the actual game we meant to release originally now pay us full price again.

Hearts R was the best Tales game I've played in recent years.

Innocence R never, RIP
>>
>>122163367
Alright, was just wondering if there was some kind of bonus. I've only been using it for testing my combos without having my party members interrupt me.

>>122163430
Is there really no chance we're ever getting Innocence? I thought we just got Hearts first because of fan votes or something. I'm playing Hearts right now and it's pretty fun, after playing both Xillia and Zestiria it feels good to be back to a more "traditional" game (with the simpler battle system and an actual world map). Characters are a bit lame tough.

Vita's pretty dead. If this was some other company, maybe, but with Scamco, I have no hope. At least I played the Eng patch on the DS, I enjoyed Innocence too.

How far are you in Hearts R? I honestly think it was the most charming and funniest Tales. Battle system was tons of fun, the 2 new party members are so smoothly integrated that a good majority would've never guessed that they didn't used to be playable the DS version, and the whole cast grew on me.

Definitely agree on the Traditional part though, any longtime fan since the days of ToS/earlier would surely get a good kick out of it.
>>
>>122164309
I had no idea Chalcedony wasn't playable in the original version, it seemed like the most obvious thing in the world that he would become playable.

And I agree, Hearts R is the best Tales in a long time, and probably the first one where I had fun playing everyone (though I still had my favorites, Kohaku and Chal).
>>
>>122164309
I just finished the tournament thing and got Kohaku. I don't dislike the cast so much as I don't care much for them so far, tough I suspect that might change (I don't think I'll ever like Kor tough since I dislike the majority of Tales protagonists).
And yeah, the battle system is really fun, I like how it manages to stay relatively simple while still allowing me to do advanced stuff. I thought Xillia 2 in particular became needlessly complex, like sure it lets me do a ton of shit but do I really want to? If I wanted so much focus on battle I might as well play DMC. The Chase mechanic is simple but very fun.

>Gall
>integrated smoothly
Okay. Now if you just said Chalcedony, you'd have a point, But Gall is fucking sloppy. Of course, that's true of all the remake added characters. Characters that were in the previous version as NPCs go smoothly (Lilith, Suzu, Flynn, Chalcedony, etc.), and then we get bullshit characters made from whole cloth who have no business being there (Patty, Rondoline, Gall, etc.).

I wonder what made Hearts so good compared to the PS3 games? Part of me wants to say that it has more heart than them, but that feels like a huge cop-out. But the PS3 games all uniformly feel like "yep this is a JRPG" or "yep this is a Tales game" while Hearts has its own character, though it also makes sense as being a Tales game.

The most charming and funniest Tales is definitely Destiny 2 though.

>But the PS3 games all uniformly feel like "yep this is a JRPG" or "yep this is a Tales game" while Hearts has its own character, though it also makes sense as being a Tales game.
It's the opposite for me. None of the localized PS3 games feel like a Tales games. They feel like a JRPG for sure, but they don't feel like Tales games. Meanwhile after playing an hour of Hearts I thought "This feels like a Tales game. This is how Tales games should be".
If I had to pinpoint something, it'd be these points.
- The battle system feels like the old Tales games. It's simple and similar to what we've played before, but with its own little things like Chase Link and Guard Counter. Graces and Zestiria pretty much reinvented the battle system while Xillia and Xillia 2 made it more and more complex.
- World Map instead of empty open field. This is two points in one. The first point is that it allows for more exploration since it's more "open" than the linear fields of Xillia and Graces for exemple, and there's even more exploration once you get vehicles. In practice it's still pretty linear, especially since there's tons of invisible walls in Hearts. But this brings my second point: you can see the horizon. Maybe this is stupid, but when you're on the field in Xillia for exemple, all you can see are mountains around you and the skybox which tells you this is the next loading point. With a world map, you can see far away. You might see a village on the other side of a mountain that you can't access yet. You might be forced to enter a town, but before you enter it you can already see what's beyond the village. This teases your curiosity and sense of wonder.
- The dungeons feel different but this one I'm not sure why. Maybe it's the fixed camera angle?

Xillia 2 maybe (though I'd disagree on that as well) but Xillia was not complex at all. Literally all they added was linked arts and that's the simplest shit ever.

CC has been around forever though not to the extent of Graces.

Maybe complex is not the correct word. I mean more like "amount of mechanics". Xillia has tons of mechanics. Linking in itself is already a unique mechanic. But then each character has a unique mechanic for when you're using them and another unique mechanic for when you're linked with them. So that's already 12 different unique mechanics, all of them only useable/available in specific situations. It's not necessarily harder, and it being good or bad is subjective, but I thought it felt bloated.
With Graces I'm not talking about the CC, I mean the camera behind the character instead of a sideview, sidestepping, and the way artes work.

Also A+ taste, but it's hard to go wrong in general when Hearts R is involved.

>>122165417
That's pretty early still, give it time. Also >>122165840 nailed it heads on. Kor takes it so far that he loops back into your HEART. The skits and sidequests will pick up in a bit, I also really love how on a ng+ with enough grades you can unlock all skits and view them in the starting village. Hearts R had excellent skits, do try to read them all.

>>122165593
It didn't make Gall any less fun to play and alright to have around, though. His lack of background story hinted at his extra status the strongest, but he's perfectly likeable and - I daresay - feel more natural to the party than Leia was to Xillia, to be frank. Makes me curious about QQ and that chinese dude from Innocence R, but since I can't into moonrunes, I'll never know.

But you agree that Hearts R is up there, so y'alright in my book, anon.

I can agree with this. Every time I start overlimit in a linked chain I need to pause, pull up the arte menu, and verify what chains. I'm never gonna remember them off the top of my head and I've no interest to. It's nice and fun to pull off, but it's tedious.

At least it's understandable, though. Zestiria's skills stacking, now? I gave up halfway in trying to play skills bingo.

God, this so hard. It's not so bad in Xillia 1 if you use the same characters all the time, I spent most of the game as Jude linking with Milla so it wasn't too hard remembering, I only had to check when I was doing link artes with other characters, but in Xillia 2 they keep changing your party members so forget remembering this stuff.

Translation is bad because on the screen you will see stuff like

What do you guys think of the attachments? In theory it allows for a lot of customization, especially now that they have multiple slots and you can move them around and change their size and color. But in practice I find most of them to look completely ridiculous and I like to keep my character in relatively "normal" appearance so it still feels immersive. Because of that I don't use them much since a lot of them feel too out of place, like have animals on your head and stuff like that. I end up using only "normal" stuff like glasses and bandanas, and sometimes animal ears on the girls to if it looks cute. Sometimes I feel like there's tons of crazy stuff but missing some basic stuff like earrings or a mole.

Only when color scheme fits and the character can pull it off. I was okay with Devil Wings on Elise, Devil Horns looked fitting enough on Milla too. Devil Wings were automatically slapped on Edna once I found it, it looked perfect with her in her alt color scheme.

Those people are silly. The language is a little less overt in English, but it's still incredibly obvious. I assume they're the usual precious nihongo fags who claim all meaning is lost if you don't choose the exact word they personally want.

>>122170765
doesn't really surprise me, i've seen quite a few tumblr posts saying they're definitely a canon couple. fangirls reading that before actually playing the game might get pissed off and think it got censored.

personally, i think the localization did a pretty good job of keeping the homo subtext in.

Not quite that degree, but I did see someone bitching about how they were tired of this kind of thing, basically whining about Sorey "having met Alisha three days ago and now she's his true love."

How terrible. I'm casually enjoying Sorey and Mikleo's homolust, but I also save cute fanart of Sorey and Alisha. I don't do tumblr though, and one of my friends who do told me she envied me. Tumblr ruined Sorey/Mikleo for her, and she admits she'd enjoy them more if it wasn't for that.

You know full well she'll have a Leon costume.

>>122170962
>personally, i think the localization did a pretty good job of keeping the homo subtext in.

I thought it was really damn obvious without "the relationship" being the focus of the game. Like, what else do people make of the whole "babe hunting" skit, or the one where Zaveid is going on about how good the girls look and Mikleo's like "Don't expect a whole lot out of Sorey on this."

That's a point though, people going off what they heard might assume it was censored or edited or whatever.

>>122171257
I liked the way Zestiria handled them. It was nice to have two people who obviously cared about each other platonically and/or romantically on an adventure together. Sorey and Mikleo were my favorite part of Zestiria. Even if you just see them as bros, you could still see how important they are to each other.

>>122171150
I'm not for Sorey/Alisha but she is the first human he ever lays eyes on, and she's pretty cute, too. It's a potentially nice premise that Zesty wasted.

But that is how loanwords work. You take a word from another language and your audience understands it. Japanese people suck at English but can still understand some words.
>>
>>122175072
There's loanwords, and then there's the spoken equivalent of getting a Chinese tattoo because it's cool.
>>
>>122175072
No that's not how it works. With your definition, damn near every word could be a loanword. A loanword is when a language (not a person) uses or adapt a word from another language, not to look cool or different or anything, but because there is no equivalent in its own language or the usage of the loanword has become so widespread its overtaken the original word. It's not understood by an "audience", but by everyone talking the language. Senpai isn't a loanword because only weebs know what it means and you won't find it in an english dictionnary. Rendezvous is a loanword because it's actually become part of the english language.
>>
>>122175407
They still need to understand what he's saying for the jokes to work, so no, that's not a valid comparison.
>>122175420
No, a loanword is just when a word is borrowed directly. There's no degree-of-use requirement. I can't imagine where you got such a ridiculous idea.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loanword
>A loanword (or loan word or loan-word) is a word borrowed from a donor language and incorporated into a recipient language without translation. It is distinguished from a calque, or loan translation, where a meaning or idiom from another language is translated into existing words or roots of the host language.
>Examples of loanwords in English include: café (from French café ‘coffee’), bazaar (from Persian bāzār ‘market’), and kindergarten (from German Kindergarten ‘children’s garden’). The word loanword is itself a calque of the German term Lehnwort,[1] while the term calque is a loanword from French.

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/loanword
>a word in one language that has been borrowed from another language and usually naturalized, as wine, taken into Old English from Latin vinum, or macho, taken into Modern English from Spanish.

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/loanword
>A word adopted from another language and completely or partially naturalized, as very and hors d'oeuvre, both from French.

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/loanword
>a word taken from another language and at least partly naturalized


You realize that the joke works because Amethyst uses english words that Japanese people don't use? Imagine a french character in an english game who only says the words "café", "croissant" and "mille-feuille". Would the joke work? No, those words have all been naturalized in the english language, so he'd just looke like he's speaking english correctly. Those are loan words. They're words of french origins who have become part of the english language. To really come off as french, he'd have to use words that english people don't use (but may understand). An exemple is "Bonjour". It's easy to understand, but it's not a loanword: english speakers already have the word Welcome for that.
>>
>>122175864
None of your definitions indicate the word must be fully absorbed by the borrowing culture and universally understood, which is your claim. (I bet most English speakers would have to look up "calque" since no one has ever casually used it.) Neither do they indicate that they must fill an unfilled role or replace an existing word, which you also claimed.
Also, French is a deeply unconvincing example language since most French words in English are so old they don't even come from what we call French today.
>>
>>122175864
Further, all Japanese-English exchanges are definitionally naturalized because they are converted to local orthography and pronunciation.
>>
>>122174932
This is exactly >>122174926 in reverse. 'Bento' is a borrowed word because there's not really an English equivalent without just saying the definition. This character sounds like a reverse weeaboo. Westaboo?
>>
>>122176204
The joke is that he's an asshole who peppers his dialogue with entry-level English vocabulary to look cool.
>>
>>122175864
>An exemple is "Bonjour". It's easy to understand, but it's not a loanword: english speakers already have the word Welcome for that.

Erm, sorry, but bonjour is hello (literally good day), bienvenue is welcome.

Anon if you're going to try and cement that you're right on linguistics show us your English degree or have solid facts as to why "you" is a borrowed word despite the Japanese having several words in their own language that completely eclipse the English version.
>>
>>122176889
But you're the one putting words in my mouth. I didn't say having no equivalent is an absolute requirement. I'm just saying it's usually a good indication of the word being a loanword. Some loanwords have an equivalent. Japanese people say Milk all the time despite having an equivalent for it. It's still a loanword because it's been naturilized in the language (You will find the word Milk in a Japanese dictionnary. You won't find Rabbit). I used Hamburger as an exemple because it's easier to understand since there's no "Japanese" word for Hamburger: The Japanese word for Hamburger is Hamburger. They're not saying Hamburger to be hip, they're saying the correct Japanese word, which was taken from the English language.
>>
>>122177015
>it can't be something with an existing word
Nope.
>>
>>122177049
The only real distinction you're making is that it's magically not a loanword unless an arbitrary number of people you decide upon both understand it and use it in everyday conversation. That's an interesting idea. Are topical specialists disqualified from adding to language in your universe as well?
>>
>>122177180
You're putting words in my mouth again. When did I say it's about the number of people? When did I talk about everydy conversation? I've said it numerous time, a loanword is a foreign word that has been "naturalized into the language". That's an actual word you can look up to understand what the fuck I'm telling you. And the word having been "naturalized" isn't MY requirement, it's the definition of "loanword" used in dictionnaries >>122175864

All you've been doing is twisting my words and saying "no you" without showing how your definition makes any sense. According to you, any word can be a loanword. That doesn't make sense in any way.

By your logic there may as well be no concept of language since apparently if I use a sentence with Japanese, Nigerian, Irish and Chinese I'm just using loan words and it's perfectly ok.
