So no further attemps by Bamco to fix their screw-up by making a remake of Zestiria, eh? Honestly, that's probably for the best, even though I'd welcome a retooled Zestiria with Alisha properly incorporated in the game.

So not only did this new Velvet character remind me of Milla when I saw her.......she has the same voice actress too?! Feels like Bamco may be leeching off of Milla's popularity a bit.......

Well, even if they're scummy enough, I doubt Bamco dumb enough to redo the Alisha debacle with Velvet here, so I look forward to this heroine and the pirate theme.

But..........that name. *shudder*

Milla was by Sawashiro Miyuki
Velvet is by Satou Rina (Railgun Misaka among the famous one)

Oh.

I blame Frontier. He talked about VAs and mentioned Xillia, and I thought Milla.

In my defense, I mentioned Rina Sato was the Main Heroine (Velvet) and was also in Xillia as Presa .

The name is weird, but I can live with it.

Tales of Zesty is not even out in NA and they announced a new Tales of games already! I'm a fan of this series so I'm happy about it

She's a pirate. She wants to feel the salt on the wind while at sea, the brisk breeze in the sunlight, and all that other nautical nonsense.

It probably is for the best to just move on and focus their efforts on this game. It'd be tough to really clean up the mess they made and it'd stick with them regardless. Better to learn from that (hopefully) and create a game everyone can come together and enjoy.

Inb4 Velvet is actually a princess. Like Faris from FFV, who was also a pirate at the start of the game

Doubt it. But it's probably quite likely that she'll meet a Prince, and he'll become a party member. Xillia (but not Xillia 2) is the only main system one in recent memory that hasn't had a member of royalty in the party at some point (unless you consider Milla to be royalty).

Not if she has a healer nearby! And if she's a savvy swashbuckler, she will.

She can always use it as a means to throw any man she's with off-balance .

She is probably prepared for that. It would be my first time hearing of a pirate that got defeated by a cold though.

Finally, the first Tales game since Symphonia I can actually give a damn about.

You are talking about a fiction genre where girls can be clad in bikini as armor and still have the highest defense in the party. =P

I detect a Log Horizon reference.

I'm so terribly amused. Anyways, look forward to the sales after the whole Zesteria fiasco they never actually solved. And they made it a PS3/PS4 port too, not just PS4.

I hear Baba is still around. Why? Seriously? Is BandaiNamco that dense or does he have some hold on the company?

Are you serious? Zestiria is a tainted label at this point. No amount of DLC or rereleases will make fans happy, even if Alisha was a permanent party member.

Releasing an entirely new game is the best thing they could do at this point. They've already made the first step by making the waifu people care about the protagonist. They could also improve Zestiria's horrible frame rate and camera by starting on a new game with a different engine than if they tried to keep on tweaking a game people refuse to like.

I think BandaiNamco or Baba can at least release an apology. You know, show they give a millimeter of care for the consumers? What do they do? Baba runs away and they leave the cleaning to the voice actors.
