Tales of Zestiria Sees The Franchise Make A Big Push To Break The West | IGN

IGN's preview for Tales of Zestiria, along with the first fifteen minutes of gameplay and an English versus Japanese comparison of the voice overs.

Whatever happens this fall I'm glad Namco Bandai took a chance with Tales in the west again. Graces F really brought a great genre some much needed attention

babadivad3162d ago

Graces was sooo good. Much better than Xillia In my opinion.

Spotie3162d ago

Can't agree there. Although I did play Greaves pretty heavily when I first got it, I played Xillia nonstop to completion.

Graces progression system was the best in a Tales game

Star Ocean is also the same type of game with bigger production values, look for it next year.

Jubez1873162d ago

Yea I'm a Graces guy (look at avatar). I like when the camera is behind of the character in combat rather then the traditional fighting style view.

SilverClock3162d ago (Edited 3162d ago )

It's hard to think of a Tales game that I don't like. It has everything I want in a game. Beautiful environments, a long story, fun combat, interesting characters, and local multiplayer (which is getting harder to find nowadays)! Can't go wrong.

Im also happy its coming on pc :D purchased it ages ago hopefully it meets the preorder tier to get Tales of Symphonia for free.

After seeing more Star Ocean 5 recently. This Takes of Zestiria looks like shit. I cancelled my Preorder.. This looks like a budget game next to Star Ocean and ugly as hell also locked to 30fps

PhoenixUp3162d ago

Tales and Star Ocean are very intersecting action RPG franchises

Spyroo3162d ago

Star Ocean 5 already looks much better

babadivad3162d ago

If you've never played a tales of game you don't know what you're missing. They're the best *subjectively* and certainly the most unique RPGs around. I buy whatever console a Tales game comes out on first. Also, have to add. Yuri is the best main protagonist I've seen in any game. That dude was a beast. He definitely wasn't the typical good guy. He was almost an antihero. He literally killed an unarmed, unskilled *admitted evil* mayor/governor in cold blood and didn't bat an eye. Just murdered the dude. You don't see stuff like that in JRPGS. Not even in tales games, he was definitely an outlier.

Really looking forward to this , I have the tales series to thank for getting me into JRPGs, it was the combat that hooked me in. My most anticipated holiday release before Fallout hits

The Tales Of series are some of the best RPGs I've ever played, and the characters are a big reason for that. I don't think I played a single game in the series that I didn't enjoy. Rest in peace.

Snookies1257d ago (Edited 57d ago )

Damn, that sucks to hear... His designs were always wonderful.

H957d ago

RIP, sheade some great designs, man it's one after the other this year

FinalFantasyFanatic56d ago

We're 3 months into the year and I feel like we're taking nothing but L's.

autobotdan57d ago

Wow she was the character designer for Tales of Destiny one of my favorites of all time =(

scorpio_204957d ago

I love the Tales games. Phantasia will always be my favorite. Ironically I felt like as the series progressed the character design became too “anime cliche.”

Dragon's Dogma and XCOM 2 are the best deals. The rest of the games are still overpriced. I would say 8.99 is good for AC: Origins, but you need to put $10 more into MTs to avoid the grind that slows down the story. So, the game is actually 18.99.

It's not on this list, but Pathfinder: Kingmaker is only $9.99. This is a deal if you have a current gen. consoles, as it runs poorly on prev. gen.

hangdang705d ago

I beat AC origins without grinding or spending any money on MTX?

anast705d ago

I had to grind for side missions. So, did many other people.

HeliosHex705d ago

Has anyone been able to login in to the ps store on ps5 I haven't been able to in days and my network is good.

RedDevils705d ago

Reset or shutdown your PS5. I always can go login to PS5, in fact just a moment ago.

HeliosHex704d ago

Hey thanks again. Although the shutdown/reset didn't work i found that resetting the mdm and hub did the trick. I use a Lan network instead of wifi. In case anyone has a similar setup and problem.

RedDevils704d ago

I forgot to mention about the router reset, that usually do the trick when it come to network problems happen with iphone/android. btw np

It’s really it’s own story , but like anything takes some inspirations from other sources, fantastic game so far, you absolutely don’t need to have played other tales games at all to enjoy this to its fullest.
