/tog/ Tales of General

>>122415315
You should just wait till page 10 like every other thread. If it dies, then it dies and that's that.

>>122415028
The gameplay is tedious, it plays like a cashgrab free-to-play MMO, except single-player and without micro-transactions. The character interactions are alright though.
>>122415729
Presumably they wanted to post more pictures of their waifu. We were at image limit, not bump limit.

Can someone help me in Graces F.

I really want to understand dualizing. Is it just fine to put in the effects that I want on a weapon?

>>122416572
It's a Tales of spin-off that plays something like Fire Emblem. There's some bullshit plot about amnesia and everyone being in a dream world. Haven't played it myself.

If anyone's interested, this is the written language used in Zestiria. On the left is the "modern" writing system, which is just an English cipher, while on the right is the ancient tongue the monoliths and stuff are supposed to be written in.

So yeah, for whatever reason Rose's name is rendered as "Roser." The best I can think of is that they were looking at it as Rosé (which is how early material had it), but instead of using the accent, used a French rendering of the same sound.

So

anyone read any good fic lately.

>>122422546
if you mean for zestiria there's some alright stuff on ao3 but it's all too short to be really satisfying imo

>>122422883
yeah basically. If you or anyone wants some really nice Sormik that ties to the game's events really well, there's a fic called 'Marked' that is really good.

>>122418692
>Why even make a squire with a low resonance physically detrimental to the Shepherd a thing

In the beginning they even say that she has quite good resonance for a normal human.
But yeah, her role is pretty much to eat shit, so much that I thought it would have been more interesting if she became a Hellion. I'd like to see Sorey and the group's reaction if that happened.

of course we probably devote 50% of /tog/ to Mikleo

>>122424264
I liked /feg/, before Awakening came out. The puns were fun. Haven't been there since, really. It's almost definitely not what I rmeember.

>>122424769
All feg is is waifus. But that's basically all the games are about, so I think it's pretty accurate.

>>122424769
Awakening was a temporary shitstorm
Fates made the shitstorm permanent.
Altough it's not 99% waifus, there are also husbandos.

>>122424951
>that's basically all the games are about
Not before Awakening it wasn't. Hell, before Awakening, /feg/ was more than waifus too. I think it's better we go back to talking about Tales of instead, though.

Innocence DS and Tempest.

Rebirth and Destiny DC are on the way.

>>122423479
Really, they should have at least come up with a way to fix the issue with her being with everyone by the time she joins briefly again and just have her stay. What, was it too hard to make new Armatization forms by slapping Alisha's head onto the models for Rose?

>>122427527
I was honestly dumbfounded that when you meet up with Alisha later, she could no longer see or hear the seraphim. I know her resonance is low, but it seems like they could have at least given her that much of a resonance power up due to her time with Sorey.

>>122425347
Every version of Phantasia except the one from Naridun X, Vesperia PS3, Innocence DS, Tempest.

In progress: Destiny DC, Naridun X (possibly just the Phantasia remake portion?), Rebirth. There's progress on Hearts DS, but it's on hold indefinitely.

>>122428516
I think that was the moment I realized the game really was going to shit all over her. It's the first time you see her after she leaves the party and it really sets the bar for how the rest of the game goes for her.

I hope you like Japanese smart phone games. Also, am I the only one who hates Jap trailers? It's always a flurry of random information that has no rhyme or reason and resembles a DDR amv from like 2005.

Not like western trailers are any better, pic somewhat related. I hate the American Tales or JRPG for that matter ads. Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories had a really good one though.

>>122430613
I saw that link and ignored it. I feel slightly disappointed but also relieved I missed that now.

PC player here, I tried to use an apple gel and now can only control Lailah, Alisha and Mileo, the game refuses to allow me to control Sorey. He just stands around and does nothing.

>>122431316
Is Asteria coming out in english. A mobile game wouldn't be too bad in helping us stay alive, works for /ffg/.

>>122431867
Maybe it's a bug? I'm playing it on PC too and even while trying to change the settings Sorey still does nothing. It happened in only two fights, I thought it was a problem with my computer or something

>>122431316
Asteria has been out for a while. It's really boring but I play it anyways. It's nice to have a stupid phone game to pass the time sometimes. Tales of Link is legitimately fun.

So after playing ToZ for 60 hours, I noticed something. I really don't like this game and this is a first for me. I loved every Tales game that came out but this one I'm not having fun.

I thought that maybe I'm just getting bored of all games so I popped in ToX2 and I enjoyed it, though the bill system is annoying and stupid, I generally having fun. The characters fit, everyone is unique, likable cast, fun battle system ect.

In ToZ everyone seems to be out of place, like they dont belong in the party. I wasn't one of the guys who was upset that Alisha left the party but it makes more sense that she belongs in the main cast. Rose seemed to be just put in there. Hell, even that one knight that taught Sorey the Arte looks like he belongs in the party. I duuno..

I just hope that Star Ocean 5 learns from ToZ's mistakes and doesn't become a mediocre game.

>>122424925
I was there for fates, it can be... informative.

>>122438895
>Giving more money to Z

>>122443031
The game loves to lick Rose's cunt. Get used to her or get ready to drop the controller. I'm 80 hours in and just killed a dragon, Edna is the main reason I still keep going. The Seraphim are alright as characters, but the plot is extra shit, there's a ton of wasted potential with every little world detail, and it's imo the worst Tales released in English. I've never played X2, I'm saving it for after I clear Z as a cleasing experience.

I can't tell who the bigger loser in love is, Alisha or Leia.

>>122444426
I do and I've already played it, yes. I'm not retarded enough to play a sequel without having done the first game. Although on the topic of X1, I finished my second run (Milla side, did Jude's a long time ago) a week before I got/began playing Z, and holy shit, starting Z the overworld graphics really felt like a huge drop from X (I'm on the PS3). I got used to it now, but it was baffling, how X1's overworld looked distinctively better than Z's.

>>122444953
I generally love the trope, a More Experienced character dirtying their hands to preserve the purity of a More Innocent Character. Z broke my suspension of disbelief having her head a very efficient assassin's guild AND a very influencial merchant's guild. That was too much.

>>122446046
I'm still not really clear why they couldn't just be travelling merchants. It's not like only assassins are allowed to enjoy time on the road.

>>122444953
Strong cast is true to all Tales game, though. They always have a really cheesy/bad plot, Zestiria's was exceptionally weak. It's the skits, post-battle quotes, and character interactions that generally really shine. Skits took a while to pick up in Z and are good, post-battle quotes are unfortunately generally ass, and interactions are... hit and miss. It's suffered from the shitty writing of the story.

>>122445963
Alisha, as in everything else. Someone save her from her game.

>>122446046
Rose could have been a much better character if they'd showed her fucking up once or twice, or even had her be on the wrong end of a disagreement with the party.. But no, she never fucks up and she's never wrong and the rest of the party adores her, along with all the Sparrowfeathers. She's even the boss of her group despite being obviously younger than Eguille and Rosh.

Assassins disguised as merchants is a simple and cool concept in my opinion. Rose being able to go "Why not both?" with a new product and have a raging financial success is kinda silly.

>>122446661
I know Dezel hijacked her to transform them into an assassins guild, but they must have been desperate as fuck to listen to an eleven or twelve year old girl.

>>122448756
Don't stop posting

The last battle sucked. First fight was a joke unless he actually hit you with his flame dash, at which point instant death. Second fight none of his attacks actually hit you if you are hugging him. Last fight he doesn't do shit for damage and even if he did hes easy just to dodge. Felt let down.

Alisha just needs a friend.

>>122460104
She has Rose for that, haven't you played the DLC?

>>122460436
No DLC yet ;_; I just mean, her only friend was Maltran and she was all Malevolent and stuff. She just needed someone who wasnt shit, because most of the time she's stressing about the City and meeting with important people. I could tell she felt really alone even surrounded by so many people. Meeting Sorey and the Seraphim was a positive experience for her even if he couldnt stay there with her.

>>122461417
sorry, i was kind of shitposting

Yeah, that's really why Alisha is in such a bad situation. The only people she has in her life to support her are Maltran and MAYBE her maid. I almost wish her maid had been a fully fleshed out character with a name and stuff, she seemed like a nice girl.

Anyone bother explaining the gear drop system? I can fight a Lv 100 Troll or a Lv 200 Troll I still get the same Bloodied Sword from them.

>>122443031
The party and their banter was my favourite part but Alisha and Sergei were terribly boring. I wouldn't want them in the party. The stuff Sorey has to do needs those ghost spirits more than nobility anyway.
They made it clear Rose is someone who observes the world and if Sorey ever fells from grace she'd end him immediately.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zV_8bom_vQ8

Did I do it right?

>>122443031
Sorey, Meebo, Alisha and Lailah feel like a party. Edna, Rose, Dezel and Zaeed seem rather disjointed and out of place.

Sorey because MUH CELESTIAL RECORD, Meebo because best and most loyal waifu that follows you everywhere and puts and makes you snacks, Alisha because the whole setting for the game is affecting her kingdom and Lailah because of her past. But the rest really don't have much of a reason to be there.

Honestly, Edna and Zaveid are my current favorite Zests. Meebo close behind. Edna's bullying and Zaveid emanating sex all the time is actually entertaining and Mikleo being caught in between as well as making funny quips keep me going. Edna's dungeon was actually fun because I managed to catch the Minatarous (?) in like 1 try plus her dialog upon entering.

Though, like many things with this game, I see more wasted potential.

They pile on the troubles and then don't let you help her with anything, you can tell how much she means to Sorey early on but they snatch her away and only let you peek through the window into her suffering now and then.

Her only part in the ending is a very quick clip that happens at the same time as the final battle, she isn't shown at all in a time skip, she doesn't even get mentioned by name in the written epilogue, and not only will her DLC never be finished but she was shown up by Rose in it too.

It's easy to see they had a lot planned for her and the party to deal with and then gave it up for Rose, Maltran was a gigantic waste of potential.

It's really a problem with the whole cast. Everyone has a lot of suffering but their stories aren't properly explored at all. Edna's a main party member and her "arc" if you can even call it that was mainly her looking sad whenever someone mentions dragons and concluded with an optional sidequest that was barely anything. Zaveid was even worse off and the two have a connection to Eizen that we hardly got to know the history of.

Game really feels like it needed a couple more hours of backstory for almost the entire cast and never got it. The seraphim especially. Honestly feels like a prequel was planned and never done.

Wait, where did you find the RAW? I know someone has them but apparently they don't want to share to random people until they are translated

looks like the manga is doing some things better, like Alisha's role and Mikleo not being so stoic to shitty situations

>>122506502
Damn. I guess we just have to wait until someone else shares them or if they are translated

>>122502169
For yourself, pick the best stat boosts you'd want. For the AI, pick titles so that it'll influence their gameplay. ie. don't put mikleo on staff duty and don't put edna on umbrella girl or whatever. Make sure your seraphim are not using their shitty melee attacks.

>>122508992
But Zaveid has good melee attacks. And good spells. Zaveid is the best Seraphim for not armatization.

Also, what titles give attack and arte attack?

>>122509069
Their third title down boosts both but I guess if you don't have them all that won't be much help

>>122509069
You're right about Zaveid. I just hate wind armatization so much I forget. Either way I don't know how much I would trust an AI Zaveid to be using both melee attacks and spells. Whatever works though.

That's fine as long as they're not gonna be slow as fuck about it. I don't have any idea how long it takes to do stuff like this, though... Their last tumblr post was October 27th and their last translation was the day before that.

It's not much but someone has been translating up to chapter 10, but without any raws to follow along
https://mangahelpers.com/m/tales-of-zestiria-michibiki-no-toki-/translations/

I'm reading the manga and stupidly started with chapter 4 because it had Mikleo on the cover and is Mikleo seriously not a sublord at Rayfalke? What the fuck, Sorey?

>>122510424
I worked as a cleaner in a scanlation team that never got off the ground. I'd say I could clean... 5 pages in an hour, on average? That doesn't count things like typesetting though, and translation probably takes a lot longer. There's also the fact that they probably aren't NEETs.

>>122510907

I hope their hands get broken. Yes I salty. Though, I'm sure other Tales translators will get on it. Tales of Translations usually does the Tales magazines and comic strips. I'm positive someone's on it already.

Anyone know why the Abyss manga just stopped around Akzeriuth? I'm positive it wasn't finished. Or maybe that was the Symphonia manga.

>>122512262
Eh, I think they're just scared of piracy bullshit, and they're covering their asses to be safe. The person doing the scans does doujin scans too and they're all up on Aarin I think.

>>122512780
They've done two doujin scanlations so far and they're up on a couple of sites, but they've got a bunch of doujin raws on Aarin that they haven't done anything with yet.

>>122500367
Weak punch compared to Rose's
Poor Sorey

>>122512262
I'm salty too, but unfortunately there is nothing that we can do about it. Only their close friends in twitter have access to the raws I guess. I wonder why they do that, though. Did they have a fight against another group, or something? Because I don't see the problem with sharing raws.

The Symphonia manga is complete, and iirc someone else was translating the Abyss manga. They got until the part where Class I and M were killed

Does Alisha ever return? This new girl is too fucking forced.

Also is there any point at all to playing on hard?

Fights are just a lot fucking longer not really any harder.

I mean shit I'm just running through areas now and fighting the boss just to instantly level up upon defeating it. Hell I fought 2 regular enemies afterwards and leveled up each time. I think I'm level 19 now.

The fights are just too fucking boring on hard. And those fucking caster mobs are just bullshit can't knock them out of their cast and they can just lay into you nonstop

This is why I Holy Bottle my way through the game and only fight in dungeons so I wont get lost (since enemies don't respawn until you leave). So far the only real challenge has been Zaveid which I don't really mind since I'm just speeding through the story.

>>122514615
The other people working on it are huge whiners, actually. Like, I'm not a big fan of the main group hoarding their raws, but holy shit some of the other people. Real cream of the crop.

I might be biased though, since I have access to the scans. I don't actually know how since I'm not even remotely close to any of them. I suppose I suck dick in my sleep?

>>122515205
Maybe you just have to follow them on twitter? I'm not even angry at them, just really frustrated.

Still, I wouldn't complain if they could share their raws

If you're underleveled turn the difficulty down to get more exp. Or go around and fight more of the mutant hellions, one of those=level up for everyone that lives, plus everyone's max HP goes up which gives you more survivability.

this >>122515725 plus change your strategy so that Lailah, Mikleo and Edna will start healing when someone falls below 75% hp. I know it sounds like overkill, but because of the delay of casting and the fast pace of battle, their healing probably wont get to you until youre at 50% hp. Changing that greatly improved my survivablility until I leveled up more and got access to better skills.

>playing the whole game in the default costumes or their color ghanges

I'm just changing it up man. I switch them all the time.

NPCs will die during boss battles, accept this fact. I've given up on trying to keep a good grade score for bosses/strong hellions. To farm grade, just stick to normal mobs. Pic related (I'm on PS3, shh).

I-I think I did. Does it matter if Zaveid or Dezel is in my party or not?

I think it would have to be Dezel. If you still have him just go back, it's not missable unless he's gone.

"This one's a bit much for me..."
"So what do I do?"
"You shouldn't be looking to me for direction in life!"
"WHAT DO WE DO?"

>>122529735
It's only with Dezel. It's a cute one.

>>122529760
Not bad not bad.

>>122529735
It's not the flash even, it's the living room light. And fuck, it mattered yeah since Dezel is the one calling Rose out.

Found a link, thankfully. Here! https://youtu.be/UqkXZMrZm-8?t=29m

that is by far my least favorite battle line from him. It's so cringey.

>>122530073
Man, that conversation was great.

I find it weird that the tracks for the desert and the Calix areas (which are a bit more melodic and detailed overall) don't loop. It's like I'm playing an old PC game.

>“Seraph can control their physical growth and appearance by their own will. In the end Mikleo didn’t change that much compared to before (he only grows taller and his hair too) because he’s afraid that Sorey can’t recognize him when he wakes up. This might be Mikleo’s wishes too.”

From the official guide apparently.

Why not? It's still a good costume regardless of SAO quality. Oh, and it's miles better than Milla's retarded costume.

>>122532350
>tfw Asbel's coat was GR8 on Milla
Kept it on her for the whole game.

>>122532350
Like why is there a SAO crossover with tales. What's the context here.

Suggestions for Zaveid's crucible?

>>122533107
Put the game on easy and blast it through. Crucibles don't give anything particularly unique anyway.

>>122529760
Perfect.

Thanks. I actually set Point of Interest off, that's why I missed it. I'm stupid and don't get it.

>>122533592
I believe you can buy all missed skits in Katz Korner after beating the game.

>>122533938
Oh, well that's convenient. I know Graces did it, but I find having Katz and Turtelz in the same universe weird.

So how do humans become Seraphims?

I'm not very far into the game

>>122530775
It's like he had a mid life crisis for 700 years.

>>122534268
It gets explained a little bit at the fire trial and elaborated on later so you should keep playing. But I'm sure someone will spoil it if you want them to.

>>122528432
i like milla costume because bazoongas jiggles

>>122534268
If they're pure of heart and die it can happen.

>>122534268
So far I understand a dead human can be reborn into a seraphim through some magical intervention by them. But they'll lose their memories.

Harold.

Is there any point in doing bossfights above normal/moderate except for challenge? The grade bonus is meaningless when the AI dies enough to get you 0 grade, and you're probably better off getting boosted EXP.

>>122541931
You seem to get better stuff. If you don't care about doing the higher difficulties to begin with, there's no special incentive for doing them, especially if undergeared.

is there any cute edna/meebo art

Growing up with an earnest dork like Sorey affected his sense of self-worth. Then he met Edna.

How many of those 700 years spent waiting for Sorey were spent as Edna's butler slave.

>>122545841
I read that as butter slave which made that statement extremely sexy.

>>122545841
700. but i'm sure she gave him vacations.
