The idea that PC gamers wouldn't be interested in JRPGs doesn't make much sense to me. CRPGs have been popular on PC since the beginning of video games, and JRPGs are largely an offshoot of CRPGs in the first place. At the very least, PC gamers are going to be interested in the kinds of game mechanics that won't show up in modern CRPGs.I have been arguing that for years. It is nice that the whole "PC gamers don't want JRPGs" argument is getting debunked. Still a ways to go, but it is happening faster then I thought it would have when I started arguing for more JRPG ports to the PC.
I don't think that anyone in this thread is under the assumption that this Tales game is necessarily going to show up on PC. What we're mostly commenting on is that it would be welcome there and that this is a lot less unlikely than it would have been a couple of years ago.Hah at PC gamers thinking this is actually going to come to Steam. How about that Halo in the registry months and months ago... Yeah. As for a 'Japanese Movement' there's really not that many titles from the country coming over to the platform. Where's the new Guilty Gear, Blazblue, the Atlus games, the NIS games. You know, all the ones that make the library of consoles far superior to what the PC offers.

Can't tell if this is some sort of parody post. Microsoft had a reason to cancel the PC ports. Bamco has exactly zero reasons to not release this on PC. It's coming.
And lol @Blazblue. Go check how many Blazblue games are on PC on 2012. Then check how many are on 2015. It's quite close to catch up with the most recent release.
Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality!
Disingenuous? No.
It simply means that "lots" doesn't mean the same thing to you that it does to me. I just don't think this is enough to go on and I want to wait for more. Good to know but not enough to get hyped over.
Tehe.Please don't.
Tehe.
*tongue sticking out*
I'm just having a little fun.
Okay... ._.That's great but... that stuff is really obnoxious and unrelated to the original post.
Yes.Is this the latest 'Tales of' game?

Now that I think of it, kinda odd Zestiria is the one that will come out first on Steam.
I thought if anything it would be Vesperia since it was on Xbox360.
Self-contained mostly. It's pretty obvious if it isn't. Like Tales of Xillia 2.Are the Tales games self-contained or do I have to read up on the prior entries before playing this one? I get the impression from this thread that Vesperia was the best in the series, is this accurate?

Oh, sorry, that's me.It's weird that people (people in the know even) here are saying things like "Wolfteam on PC" or "Namco Tales Studio, word!", when the first doesn't exist ever since 2003 and the later was dissolved in 2011...
PC getting alot of love this generation.
Will there be a PS4 version too?
I've only played Symphonia, and I never knew this.Though Tales of Phantasia and Tales of Symphonia are in the same universe and part of a long running series.

Oh... yeah.. Tales of Phantasia takes place several centuries or so after Tales of Symphonia.I've only played Symphonia, and I never knew this.
I sure hope not!This... Has got to be some kind of error right?
If it's on the Steam database it probably means that there's some sort of PC build being tested. It may never see the light of day but it exists.This... Has got to be some kind of error right?
I mean is not strange for a game to be flagged as free. Same happened to NUNS4 and is a confirmed paid game.

I assume because of the seamless battle/world setup? Figured that'd be inevitable, surprised I didn't see many posts easily in the IMport thread, though I didn't look that hard and maybe enough were grounded enough to know how unrealistic it was to expect 30 while still being on PS3.That would be fantastic. One of the only real major issues with the game is the performance, particularly 30 FPS battles in a series with a legacy of 60 FPS battles.
