So, I was wondering. Who is doing the OT? Whoever you are, make it special!

Then there wouldn't be one at all.
I think Kagari should do it. She did an awesome job with XIII-2 OT.I think Aeana should do it. She's the sage of Tales games on GAF to me.Then there wouldn't be one at all.

Speaking of costumes, do you think Namco will sell those other ones? At this point I don't care if I'm nickled and dimed. I want Asbel's Yuri/Haseo costume!
i'm gonna assume Scamco will sell them.
oh, you too. lol

Team up and do it! Many OT's have more than one person working on it.
Now I'm interested.

Question. Any of the males heal? I normally do an all male team my first time through. Or I get by Gels and Life bottle healing. But most tales, at least a male has some sort of healing abilities, if not the best type.
Doesn't the main character usually get a healing spell since he's a "jack of all trades" type of a character? Or maybe I'm thinking about Star Ocean.
...
Why are all 'Tales of' heroes always males?

I have the Japanese version, but I haven't stared it yet as I'm playing some other games.
I guess I will just wait and play along with you guys.

That's an interesting choice for a team lol. From the demo, Hubert (your avatar, what a coincidence) has Healing Wind, but I believe that's all he has (I could be wrong obviously). And that's it. Though I guess I can't say anything about your team choice since I plan on going three males + one female as my most used party (Asbel, Malik, Cheria, and Hubert but he'll be switched around a lot with Sophie and Pascal).

ULTROS!
People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
Milla isn't a guy.
Ahaha. Yeah, I'd do it only if kiryogi decided not to. He does all of the Tales OTs (well, he and Rpgmonkey usually).
Excuse me?
Had to be done.
- RPGs usually have male leads (heck, it's the same in most genres).
- Japanese fangirls
Xillia changes that (or at least mix it up), though:

My gamestop had a poster up for it too...though above two of those huge boxarts (of Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations). Almost made me want to order both.

Ahahahaha. Poor Kiryogi.
Graces' healers are Cheria, Sophie and Hubert (all arranged in how effective they are at healing; I personally depend on Cheria to do most of it, but that's because I generally kick Sophie out of the party or use Hubert manually).
Also, I kinda urge people to switch up who they use in battle. I really love using Asbel (and it isn't cuz I like hearing Takahiro Sakurai's voice), but Cheria and Hubert were really fun for me to use as well.

She didn't actually make the OP, I think it was her friend.
wait what?! Hubert can heal?! sucks not being able to read Japanese, I never knew this when I tried the demo.

Can I help
?!But in the writing not the Graphical stuff, like writing the opening section!

Yes. Hubert has these skills, for example:
ヒールウィンド (Healing Wind -- Heal 25% of HP for allies within a small range)
アンチドート (Antidote -- Heal Poison, Paralyze, Weak or Burn for one ally)
集気法 (Centre -- Self-healing)
This is partially why I use him manually when I'm not busy using Asbel or Cheria---he's better as a short-ranged or ranged attacker depending on the styles you use (Double-Blade Artes Style vs Twin Pistol Burst Style), and this is why I leave the healing/buffing up to Cheria when I'm not manually controlling her, lol.
Either Kiryogi or Rpgmonkey, I guess, since they usually do Tales threads around here. I'd suggest PMing either one to see if they're doing it before you jump into it.

I'll gladly take the DLC code if you don't want it.

It's too bad you didn't ask sooner. Already promised it to a friend.

Ah, phooey. Thanks though! I'll surely find a way to get a GS employee to relinquish a spare.
So sad.... Oh well. Kiryogi did Xillia and has more experience anyway.

I can't wait at all... I'm soooo hyped that it hurts too much!

Okay, so I'm not going crazy. I thought something looked a bit off.
OT: Don't have much emotion for this game. I have heard good things about the Tales series, but I'm really not feeling the art style or the character design.

Those bonuses seem pretty weak. I'd rather go with Amazon and not deal with Gamestop's BS.
