Lookin' good. Love the music.
Was posted in the other Zestiria thread.
Game looks great, love all the Japanese VA's except the two female party members, umbrella girl and longhaired tenzoku chick.
Glad we are getting dual audio in the western release. Love the open world/instant battle thingy too.
Combat doesn't look like graces even if made by the same people so I hope I will like it

The cast in this game is absolutely horrible.
I'm skipping this one.

It's Tales, how do you think the gameplay is going to be?

I'm kind of irritated that I need to keep my PS3 around for this, but it's looking decent enough that I think I've got to. Ufotable doing good work as ever!

That's been confirmed?
There actually was, but it only lasted for 5 seconds at most.

It's not like being on the PS4 would be any help to the graphics or Japanese sales.

Hideo Baba said he would like for it to be in and that it could also be DLC but that he would rather it's on disc and later it was confirmed.

Lol. I'll do that. I'm sure there will be a handful of other JPN games that get PS3-only releases so it won't be for Tales alone.

The west is the main reason for a PS4 version at this point, I think even NAMCO knows that. There's only a PS3 version of Godzilla in Japan while the western announcement revealed there to be a PS4 version to launch alongside the PS3 version. And the recent Jump All Stars announcement included a PS4 version as well. I'd honestly be surprised if Zestiria launched in the west next year without a PS4 version.
They might as well release the game on ps4 in Japan then, it would be the biggest game on the platform.

Zestiria probably won't be released in the west until sometime late next year, and the Japanese version is due out in less than a month. So if the PS4 version even exists (and I think it does), then it's unlikely that it's close to being finished.
It's gonna be released by July actually, so not late next year.
some short battle gameplay

Lots of negativity in this thread... guess Xillia 1 and 2 really burned fans, huh? Well, I'm excited. Game looks phenomenal.
If I repress the horrible VA Milla had hard enough I can say for a fact that I enjoyed Xillia a lot.

Well, middle of the year then. Baba acknowledged how quick the west has moved on, so that makes me think there's a possibility for a PS4 launch along with the PS3 version in the west

Reaction to the first Xillia on GAF seems mixed, but most appear to have a comparatively positive opinion of Xillia 2.

Enjoyed both but xillia 2 was annoying with all the reused assets.

Namco isn't going to make any platform or porting decisions based off of the meager western sales. We'll get the PS3 version in the west next year and that's it. You should just wait for the inevitable japanese Tales of Zesteria DX port for PS4 in 2016.

Same here. I didn't have a HUGE problem with her VA, though; it was only mildly annoying.
I'm enjoying Xillia 2 more personally. Even with the reused assets, the story is a lot more serviceable than Xillia 1; I feel like the reused assets is the only thing really holding it back (the debt system is manageable), because without the context, it's a much better game than Xillia 1. However, you can't really help looking back at its predecessor. Still enjoyed them, even though they are middling Tales titles.
I really hope Zestiria turns out to be a return to form, and it really looks like it's going to be.

Western sales aren't meagre.
Xillia did over 1 million in the West (outdated sales figure btw), thats over 300k sales from West and no doubt the numbers much higher now. Thats a notable chunk of its sales. Not to mention many franchises are declining on PS3 not just in the West but in Japan as well. Publishers will eventually have to move on and Baba has said that PS4 is where they are going so would it not make sense to bridge the gap and start building a base on PS4 sooner than later.

Im also on board the PS4 or bust train.
1080p and some quality AA and 'll buy a simple upscale to show support.

I would love to see the source for Xillia's 1 million sales in the west. Or even 300k.
And you are totally right that it makes sense to bridge the gap to the PS4. But they'll do that with an updated version of Zesteria in 2016, not with a western exclusive port at the same time as the PS3 version. In fact, the inevitable Zesteria DX is a good reason why they won't make a PS4 port next year for the west: it'll take away one of the selling points for the updated version of Zesteria.
Of course, at this point we are arguing HOW Namco is going to do it vs what they'll inevitably do, which is a bit silly

I can see Namco going your route as well but I actually think that Namco wants to make Tales an annual franchise and that we might get another Tales (PS4) in 2016.
He probably meant to say 1 million worldwide. Assuming the figure is sales (and not shipment) and it is true, then Xillia's sales in the west should be at least 230k, since in Japan Xillia's sales are about 670k.
So no, it's not 300k in the west, but 230k is a sizable number for a game that's probably considered niche outside Japan.

If they want to bring the title to the west...

I am sure it will do fine on the ps3 alone, hell I can't wait to buy this game. I was buying it anyways regardless of a ps4 port.
Yeah, and he's pulling out a "master sword" in the trailer. Probably unintentional, but still funny.

It looked pretty good in the last trailer I watched. I hope it comes to PS4 as well.
As an aside, if you liked the trailer music, you should check out God Eater 2's soundtrack, which is pretty much Go Shiina's current style.

jokes actually on you since GE2 doesn't have a soundtrack release. Go buy Rage Burst when it comes out

It's probably 720p like Xillia so yeah I'm sure they could get something out of PS4. Basically anything 3D instantly benefits from extra graphics power because you can always use more AA.
Easily looks on par with Xillia if not better. Not sure what you're talking about/expecting. It's a tales game on PS3, not Uncharted 4.
I do hope they put it on PS4, but anyone interested in Japanese games would be an idiot to ditch their PS3 any time soon. I'm sure it will do about as well as a standard tales game though a PS4 port probably couldn't hurt.

Xillia's English trailers were also a lot more interesting and engaging:

And to be fair, Fenmont is probably one of their best towns they've made in Tales games.
Well, Tales games are pretty damn close to being playable anime at this point. What you're noticing is the Tales team using multiple artists to design the cast. The result is a really inconsistent look.
Anyway, this trailer just improved my interest in this game. I like the overworld setup, the way the battle look, the proposed updates to the gameplay, but the fact that this may get a PS4 port in the near future stops me from jumping in.
