[texhnolyze]

Nice.
English version in December then?

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Nice.
English version in December then?

Probably next year.

 

[SolicitorPirate]

I really, really want to like this, but after Zestiria, I'm a bit worried for Berseria

 

[Aeana]

Yayyyyy. It looks good.

 

[salromano]

 

[Vazra]

Is it me or it looks more polished than I remember?

 

[3Kaze]

Go Shiina isn't credited in the trailer

 

[Aeana]

Is it me or it looks more polished than I remember?

The 60 FPS certainly helps.

 

[Inuhanyou]

Is it me or it looks more polished than I remember?

Games generally are more polished as they are developed, yes.

CANT WAIT

 

[Pancake Mix]

Salromano posted this image already, but it's also the box art

Very nice. Pretty damn impressive trailer to boot. Looking forward to Velvet.

 

[hotsoup]

8200 yen for a half-recyled game?

 

[Bladenic]

Are most Tales games rated B? Also that may be the best boxart any Tales game ever had.

I guess no Go Shiina though, shame. Maybe Sakuraba will bring his A game.

 

[TheFatMan]

This mean we can expect a November USA date? I really wish the Tales games would adjust there release dates to be earlier in the fall or late summer. I have a hard time fitting in a 60 hour game during prime gaming season.

 

[Inuhanyou]

8200 yen for a half-recyled game?

Are we going to use this as a barometer for every game that shares assets with its predecessor?

 

[TheFatMan]

Who do I have to sleep with to get that made into a decent high res wallpaper?

 

[Namikaze]

Wow, August? Can't wait to see import gaf's impressions. I wasn't sold on the darker theme at first but this game looks really interesting.

Minus Tales of the Abyss 3DS and maybe some other port like Phantasia iOS, only Vesperia was ever very close in release dates between Japan and the West, and even then, only the NA version. Expect 2017, outside of prime gaming season.

 

[Valkerionseven]

Love that classic style box art. Very Tales of Destiny.

Will watch the trailer after work, browsing gaf uses enough bandwidth as it is on this phone lol.

You are correct sir. I know I was just complaining, but that almost makes me more sad

 

[Vazra]

Stretched for the moment but Im pretty sure eventually we'll get a high rest one.

 

[Dandy Crocodile]

Very interesting. I like all the cast designs here, but the mascot thing this time around is still a bit iffy IMO.
Then again if I could come around on Teepo anything could happen, haha.

 

[Rainy]

Trailer looks good. I honestly still haven't played Zestiria yet, need to get around to that..
Also who sings the theme song? FLOW?

 

[kewlmyc]

A good trailer, despite no gameplay. Will remain cautiously optimistic.

Expecting this spring 2017 in English. That will be a good distance away from Zestiria's EN release.

 

[Vazra]

I was okay with the Normins which seems to be the same thing here.

 

[Big Green Anus]

Go Shiina isn't credited in the trailer

This kills my hype

 

[GKSilKamina]

Wish I could be more excited about it, but Zestiria left a really sour taste in my mouth. That picture of Velvet's lovely, though.

 

[RainbowIslands]

Yay! Gotta love those UFOtable cut scenes. Probably gonna get the download version so I can grab the PS4 theme. FLOW OP is awesome!



Can't wait. Maybe this game will be a good one (unlike Zestiria). Sad that Go Shiina is not featured for the music; I love the temple/dungeon themes and "Rising Up" in Zestiria. Also, New Gameplay footage, when?

Edit:
Not that there are doubts, but I guess our final party is confirmed:

I was thinking much the same, my first thought was really that it reminded me a lot of Inomata's art-style circa TOD2. Boxart looks fantastic.

I'm actually finding myself anticipating this game a whole lot, despite my many (many, many, many) grievances with Zestiria. Things look like they're shaping up much nicer than the last couple of Tales games, though I don't plan on getting my hopes too high for a return to form from some of their older titles. Gonna import for sure regardless though, since I don't expect a release date close enough in English to warrant me foregoing it.

 

[gundamkyoukai]

Think i will skip this tales and wait until we get a full PS4 one.

 

[ULTROS!]

My expectations are probably bottom now, I expect this game to be half-assed towards the end like Xillia and Zestiria.

Will get though.

 

[foras592]

Day one.

 

[Rpgmonkey]

I might be setting myself up for disappointment as I haven't been a huge fan of the past couple of entries but so far I'm liking a lot of what they're going for here, and it looks much more polished than the past couple of games have been. Mid-August gives me plenty of time for me to finish it before Final Fantasy XV releases.

The box art is pretty cool. I think it's been a little over a decade since they've made a box art in this style.

 

[Pellegri Testament]

8200 yen for a half-recyled game?

I'm assuming niche isn't your thing, is it? This is hardly the only series that reuses assets from previous games and still charges full price for each game. I mean it's a thing in most AAA Western games as well, so not even sure why this is a question.

 

[Sagitario]

Director : Yoshimasa Tanaka
Is this his debut as director? A quick search tells me that he has been working on Tales since Symphonia at least.

Tales of Series IP Supervisor : Kai Tanaka
Is this a new position? First time I have noticed it.

Datschge, where art thou?

 

[Brawly Likes to Brawl]

That's the nicest boxart Tales has had in a while.

 

[Mobile Suit Gooch]

That's the nicest boxart Tales has had in a while.

No kidding.

 

[kayos90]

August release? Nailed it on the dot.

 

[Jeels]

So soon and barely any gameplay shown.

 

[Soriku]

This is kind of reminding of Abyss with the different rivals (some) of the characters seem to have. Who even is that that Eizen is fighting?

Anyway nice trailer and great boxart.

 

[Mieu]

I'd still get the JP version because of the manual.

No, Rutee, Milla, or Lloyd costume for Velvet?

 

[TheFatMan]

Stretched for the moment but Im pretty sure eventually we'll get a high rest one.

Thank you sir! That will do for now.

 

[Megawarrior]

Best Tales box art since Rebirth

 

[Crimsonsky]

So soon and barely any gameplay shown.

Play Zestiria. The gameplay will likely be close to that, if not the same. Hardly a reason to waste trailer time on it. Nice boxart. Our release date will probably be around Feb-Mar 2017.

 

[lucablight]

I don't think I've ever been so disappointed to not have a composer in a certain game as I am at Go Shiina not being in this. Was easily the best part of the Zestiria OST.

 

[exfatal]

Music was hype as fuck, Zestiria wasn't the best, but still looking forward to see more of this

 

[Valkyri von Thanatos]

Salromano posted this image already, but it's also the box art

Very nice. Pretty damn impressive trailer to boot. Looking forward to Velvet.

Sweet box art. I hope we get it in the west. I hope the game fixes all of Zestiria's pproblem that I've heard about.

 

[MartyStu]

Wow, 60FPS helps immensely.

Are we getting a PC version?

 

[GasProblem]

Yeah, looks good. Fine with 2017 for the west really, with FFXV, Persona 5 (?), Pokemon and Dragon Quest the end of 2016 is pretty stacked JRPG wise.

 

[Verelios]

Box art will mix in nicely with the other Tales CE.
