Finally got off of my lazy ass to finish Tales of Vesperia today. Can't wait for the PS3 port now. lol Shouldn't have asked for a 360, but I figured this out too late LOL. Oh well, you live and learn.
Lesse, I know that the PS3 port is gonna have tie-ins to the OVA, which is suppousedly going to be shipping YuriEstelle like no tomorrow. Ohhhhh boy, and I thought that some of the "moments" between the two were awkward in the 360 game.
Speaking of "moments," what the hell was that ending? Vesperia's ending isn't BAD per say...but it's really just kinda "lol we saved the world, thx for helping.....GROUP HUG! Credits. Duke. Nature. Ba'ul. The end"
Not terrible...but not all that great. I can live with it. But...eh. It's a sign that it was rushed in development. (Like a few other signs in game) I just hope that stupid ass loli doesn't fuck up the story. I mean....really...Tales having 6 playable characters in general stretches it, but now a pirate loli is being thrown in. (Chat 2.0?) Really? What a way to pander to the pedos, Tales Team! (OH WAIT, I'M TALKING ABOUT A JAPANESE DEVELOPMENT TEAM! o; Also, grasping at straws for extra PS3 content.)
Uh, shitty loli aside, HOW ABOUT THAT EXTRA FLYNN? Guy is a badass mother, and I hope this time you can actually use his hi-ougi instead of being stuck with crappy basic skills. (No weeaboo, just too used to "hi ougi," not to mention I dislike "mystic arte") Though the story really will restrict him from being in the party much. Again, grasping for *exclusive content omg!* I can hope for DLC, but since the videos and scenes, not to mention possibly the soundtrack are going to be updated/changed-chances are there won't be DLC.
Also, it has no US release date...yet. Guess I might import if it doesn't come out. o: Not like I haven't fought a winning battle (Yes, winning. As in, you know where you're going and what you're doing, not what the story is. lol) with a Jap game.
I swear, I am not bitter about it. Besides, US sales don't matter, the Jap ones do! Japanese dev/publisher, after all! It's not like anyone buys the good Tales games in the US, anyways. lol ("Good" is subjective, really.)
PS: Stop cockblocking the non-shitty PSP Tales of games, NBGI.
With Vesperia out of the way, I have 4 other Tales games that I have yet to finish. Eternia, Legendia, Rebirth, and Destiny 2. I want to say I'm about the same amount into the game as far as Eternia and Rebirth are concerned....not so sure about Legendia. In D2, I am literally on the last dungeon. Just haven't popped it back in my PS2 yet because I've been playin' KoF, GG, and SRWZ on it. Frickin SRW gets damn addictive, too, so :\
Pre-Metro entry tomorrow, maybe. Gotta get some shit out of my system.
