Man at this rate we're closing in on a Tales game a year. If someone had told me at the time I first played Tales of Phantasia on an emulator back in high school that I was playing the first of what would eventually become a long spanning franchise of anime inspired action RPG's I'd never have believe them it just seemed like such a revolutionary one off experiment at the time. I remember just the fact that they got a full vocal song onto an SNES cart at the time completely blew my mind.

That said I think in spite of disappointments like FFXIII that the JRPG scene in general is starting to see a bit of a resurgence in North America as well towards the end of the current gen. Whereas at the start of this generation the attitude seems to have been that JRPGs were stale and not innovating or showcasing enough variety I think that has proven to not be true in the end. |

Ludgar's Geass costume was quite good on eyes; it made him looked more manlier than his default costume ^^" On the other hand, I don't like Leia's one though. The costume only was fine but her Karen hairstyle somehow gave odd feelings ^^" So they already got the next Tales planned? If they really are going to release a new game per year then they got to be extra careful about the quality... Not sure if I should take people from 2ch seriously, but apparently there are some hardcore fans who are unhappy with the recent Tales. Is Symphonia and Vesperia that godly? They keep referring to that two titles a lot. I didn't like Symphonia's protagonist so I've never really check it out

Symphonia and Vesperia are really good, but those people on 2ch are just being your common "things were better before, now they suck!" kind of people.
As for endings, there are 4. Good, semi-good, bad, and special. Special is an ufotable animated hot springs visit. It rocks. |

So five animation scenes plus the op and four endings? That seems about the usual number. Man for some reason xillia 2 just sounds way more interesting then the first xillia (even though im really looking forward to that one). Hopefully xillia 1 sells well so we can get the real prize aka xillia 2! @rrw not all of it but... (slightly NSFW) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLKeId8yEEg

As for DLC, I actually kinda hate the DLC approach so I never bought them, although I kinda understand about this approach for costume from another franchise(like geass or Madoka). At least Namco is still good enough to release the full game instead of selling the later part as DLC |

Seriously though, it's a good thing that this didn't get released at the same time as SRW:OG. At the very least I could save some money first until late Nov to buy OG.

As for Ludger.. from what I've seen in the stream, I couldn't sa much because the enemies were all too weak at that moment. I've heard that there's already someone who posted his walkthrough in YT, so maybe you could check it? anyway, someone already got 9999 hit combo
