Ahhh... So it's one of THOSE kind of things... >.> |
Someone also mentioned something about the concept art. Noticed that the towns seem surrounded by desert and connected by railways? He said that it might be because the world is at it's limit (if you've played World Destruction or watch Regios then you'll probably get what I meant.) and that's probably why it's like that.
...and considering that the theme is about sacrificing your girl / saving the world, I don't think it's kinda off >_>; |

Well I'd rather have a cheap passable port if I may. It makes sense in terms of audience potential in Japan where PS3 rules, but in the rest of the planet where 360 still remains at the top, probably not so much. So years after Vesperia I'm still waiting for my next main series game.
To me it's still really the way Bamco doesn't market the Tales series as they do others, but meh, I'd say it's their own fault for the most part why the Tales series isn't as big as it could be. |
As mentioned by Baba (Tales of producer), their team specifically set their game for the Japanese audience, and it is only afterwards they oblidge to make release for the western market.
And frankly, that's quite understandable, since the sales in Japan just slaughter any count they can ever have in the western market. |
I'm not the biggest enthusiast of the Tales series, but I admit the supposed "modern" theme and those concept arts of this upcoming title really have me intrigued. Tales has been pretty much nothing but medieval fantasy worlds with some scif-fi elements as far as I know, so this step outside normal ground is an interesting thing to see and it really piques my curiosity.
All-in-all, I'd like to see something darker from this series. The games all tend to be rather lighthearted, but considering the target audience though, that's probably unlikely to change. :uhoh: |

First promo video:
Not a lot to see, though. :heh: The game will be officially announced on June 2, but there will be another commercial a bit sooner than that. |
As a big romance buff, I'm happy to note how that line for the new game sounds like a nice romance game line. :D C'mon Bamco, you gave us Emil and Marta in ToS 2, give us more of that. :D

There's been romance of some degree in most of the Tales games that I've played. They aren't thrown in your face (with the exception of Graces and maybe Xillia), but they're still there. Though having not played Ratatusk, not sure if maybe they're on screen making out and such and that's what you mean. :p

Not that there's anything wrong with the normal heroes, it's just that the situation probably requires someone with a different 'mindset'. ...Plus It's abit overkill if Yuri wins Number One Character 4 times in a row :heh: Onosaka-san would really cry :heh: Quote:

If they're gonna pitch such a decision as the tagline for the game, I really hope the main character doesn't pull a "I'll save the world AND you" option out of his ass again like other protagonists have. Have him actually choose one or the other. :heh:
I'd prefer they keep the romance downplayed as well. Too much focus on that will eventually just start taking away from whatever other characterization the characters may have to offer. BTW on a random note, am I the only one who sees something like Manhattan Island in New York surrounded by a dried up Hudson River in one of those concept arts? |
