5 Tales Games That Absolutely Deserve Remasters! | Backlog Battle

[@Olphas]

Xillia and Graces f were my first. I played them back to back. So they will always have a place in my heart and I do think I would buy a nice Remaster and replay them. Abyss is the one I REALLY want to have remastered. I missed it back then and never got around to play it later

[@ICgay4]

I love this 💕 Who are your favorite characters in the game to use?

[@eclairmint]

I absolutely agree with this list. Specially with the Xillia series. The animations and action were too good on it's time that the ps3 hardware itself is struggling. The gameplay slowdown wasn't gamebreaking but definitely was heartbreaking as the combat gameplay could've been flawless imo. Also for me, I also agree with Abyss' story being one of the best among the series and Graces F to be the one of the best combat among the series.

[@theoaremevano3227]

The Xillia duology would be such a great choice due to it being such a good fit for people who may have started with Tales of Arise. It has a fair number of similar mechanics and features along with some familiar predecessors to characters you would have played in Arise. While I feel like people are a bit split on which of the two they prefer, the favorite for each person frequently ends up in their top 3-5 Tales games, with Xillia 2 actually being my overall favorite prior to Arise. X2 took kind of a weird, seemingly gimmicky or fanfic-like premise and actually made me like it by the end, along with a really tight update to the pretty decent Xillia combat setup preceeding it. Just 2 things to note about these games: 1: If you play Xillia 1 START WITH JUDE. Like its successor, Scarlet Nexus, you can choose which MC to start the game as (though you get them both almost immediately anyway), but I've never seen anyone really argue that it's better to start on Milla's path. Her path is more focused on things going in with her and in the background of certain characters. Jude's is a more broadly party-focused version of the story better fitting a first run. 2: Xillia 2's main protagonist does have voice acting for all his lines, but it has to be switched on as a NG+ feature. Can't provide a reason for this, just thought it was worth noting. Abyss, I would agree on for the same exact reason. I still cannot play Abyss, and I'd be willing to try, even if its combat is considered a bit dry in some ways. The 'holy trinity' is so-called because the three popular entries were spread across the 3 major platforms and drew in avid fans from all side of the gaming universe, and it's a shame so many later ones were mainly PS3/4 entries. Rebirth does look really good and I think I'd give that one a shot for sure if it did get a remaster. :)

[@redstratus97]

For the record Eric Landon RPG has always promoted Millia’s path over Jude’s. I haven’t played it yet, but your reason why Jude may be better is interesting to me.

[@theoaremevano3227]

@@redstratus97 : I think I remember that a little now you mention it. :) I've also heard it said by a few that they felt Milla's path 'spoiled' them a bit on some developments, since like SN, it follows the character's perspective, though I think the most accurate way to describe why people prefer playing Milla second is that it reveals more stuff that may be more interesting on a repeat run. The game does sell you pretty hard on Milla given the two scenes that showcase your choices though. XD Bumbling medical student or intensely focused mystical goddess? I think it's possible to LIKE her path more if you really like Milla. The path is very Milla-centric, but the argument for Jude is primarily with regard to a first playthrough.

[@laospaulieplayingpc]

As a fan of Team Symphonia I would definitely love to see a remaster of Tales of Abyss even just a port. My choice for a remake though would be Tales of Legendia, as that game had a lot of rough edges but was overall still an enjoyable game. Also as an Australian I had to go through many trials to get a hacked PS2 just to play out of region games as the game only released in Japan and North America.

[@Road_to_Dawn]

If they remake Legendia (boy I hope they do), I hope they better integrate the later part of the game and give it actual VO.

[@gastonibanez7349]

I would love this tales of games to be remastered: Abyss, Graces F and both Xillia.

[@JamesBantz]

Tales of the Abyss can still be had on 3DS for not too expensive. However you are 100% correct it needs to be on modern platforms. I would also like to see Tales of Eternia brought to modern platforms. I remember buying the European import copy of the PSP version at a vendor at Otakon since it wasn't released in North America. I think it also would be a great release or maybe a PS Plus Premium game.

Though ai don't usually like to come back to games I've already finished, Tales of Phantasia has a special place in my heart and I would definitely love to see a remaster of it. As a kid who couldn't freely play video games, I used to play it on a GBA emulator and I was totally immersed in the game.

[@BacklogBattle]

I think we've all been in that situation at one point or another! I'm glad you got to experience Phantasia, though a remaster would be absolutely incredible!

[@addletwintone]

100% agree with Rebirth and Phantasia. Destiny also deserves the full remake treatment since it was never localized. Innocence R deserves some love for how a great story it is. There's the fan translation for the DS version, but not the Vita port. The others in this list I'd argue they don't really need a remaster, but rather a port. Either to modern systems or to PC. Imagine having the full Tales series on PC. Legitimate copies, not the thing we don't talk about. The reason I say a port instead of a remaster is because they are fine just the way they are. Especially those from PS2 to current. Sure there were odd choices, or the battle system was a little weird (looking at Graces F with that dual fighting switch style), but they honestly just need small tweaks to be bearable in today's landscape.

[@HybridAngelZero]

If any one of these got announced, it would be a day-one buy, no question. With Baten Kaitos getting a remaster this year in addition to Symphonia, my hope is that Bamco is finally going to make a push to make their titles available on modern platforms. Heck, the Holy Trinity have never all been on the same console as one another before, and far too many games in this series have had exactly one release, ever

[@DanielSantosAnalysis]

The Holy Trinity must finally come together!

[@s4ad0wpi]

I'd love to see modern remakes of the DS-turned-Vita games, Hearts/R and Innocence/R They both came out on Vita, but Hearts wasn't dubbed, and Innocence wasn't even localized, making them very hard to go back to. Which is a shame, because Hearts has some of the best game play in that style in the series, (even better than Vesperia, though it's been a while, so I don't remember why exactly. It just felt better in my opinion)

Selfishly, I would love Abyss anything. Remaster, remake, sequel, just give me more Abyss. ;-; I feel like the PS3 titles don’t even need much beyond QOL updates - just port them to modern consoles and Steam with those (and Switch it possible). And I would love a port of the PSX titles (including the PSX Phantasia) just so they were available to modern players.

[@Road_to_Dawn]

Both one of my best friends and I are on the Series X, and while there are just a few Tales games on it, we’ve been talking about how badly we need so many more on there. Like Xillia 1 and 2, Zestiria and Berseria, Graces, and the PS2 games like Abyss and Legendia as well. Really the whole series. Xbox really needs to pick up the slack on Tales. Fortunately, it is getting the new Symphonia remaster as well at least. (Also, Rebirth REALLY needs to be localized.) I just love this series so much. I have at least one copy of every English release, and I also imported a Japanese copy of Innocence as incentive to try to help myself learn Japanese. Just to flex, I also bought a copy of Destiny on the PS1 that didn’t come with the jewel case, just the disc. I found someone on Etsy that made 100% authentic-looking fan recreations of the original jewel case and even the manual. One of my proudest gaming purchases, it looks incredible!

I'll be a happy fan for a good while, since these are the titles that I haven't played or had the time to try and emulate correctly due to half finished English patches. And Phantaisa could use a remake only on the grounds that the combat isn't something that jived with me due to how slow it is and not having a good air combat to fight those damned BEES!!!!! (hehe). Also, due to the fact that first games after this long should be brought back for those that weren't even cognitive when it released, but that's just me *shrugs*

[@rpg_tai_yggdrasil]

I applaud you for being the only person in the comment feed to be of culture. Destiny is the single one title of the whole franchise that needs a more accessible version; and it could be made a dual pack with 2 like that symphonia set that was the LAST time they re-released it. 🤦‍♂️ The fact that the recent release of symphonia DIDN'T have the second story in that series was kind of slap on top of the fact they did symphonia AGAIN in the first place. 😄 I would LOVE to see destiny 1 and 2 made as a whole arc in a single title remake, but that's a dream. So, I'll settle for a remake of destiny 1 that's at least on par with arise. 🤩😍

Oh don't even get me started on this topic. I'm very annoyed they chose Symphonia yet again to be the first remaster attempt after implying they'd do more after Arise when so many games are stuck more inaccessible platforms. And then the added barrier of some being Japan only on top of that. It's my very favorite RPG series, so i just want more. Symphonia is cool and all but I got the remaster on steam a couple years ago for like $20, others definitely needed it more.

[@Terranigma23]

I agree with all of your list, however I would add Tales of Legendia. The second half of Legendia (Character Quest) never had voice acting. Also, they could refine the eres system (spells). Legendia is still one of my favorite because of the soundtrack (thanks to Go Shiina) and the character interaction. The battle system is still clunky and maybe they could add something to drop the random encounter rate, but I still love it. I'm probably nostalgically biased. 😅 PS: I'm still surprised that Abyss never had a remaster (but rather a demake on the 3DS lol), because it's always the most popular one in Japan. Same thing for the character Luke fon Fabre. 😁

[@theoaremevano3227]

Also the ability to unlock literal model swapping for X2 characters was just.... funny as hell. XD

[@stop88729]

The only remaster from this list that would unironically surprise me would be Rebirth. I'd heard that they were planning to release the original in the West but held off because they were worried the themes of racism would be too much, and I thought they were being silly until I actually played through it. Given how the conversation around race in the West has only grown touchier since then, it's not something I can really imagine happening.

Just remaster all the tales games before Symphonia and then ps3 tales games

[@RegisSaikyou]

The Xillias need one for the sole fact that they are locked down on the ps3 currently. Rebirth is a wonderful entry, but instead of Graces, I would suggest Eternia as both instances of localized releases weren't...optimal and could use a better re-release. If anyone got into Tales from Arise and enjoyed its story, these two titles would be good 2nd/3rd games to play. Phantasia is an interesting case here. It has seen a number of releases over the years, yet the 2 times English audiences got it, it was hot garbage. For an ideal global remaster, I'd say either versions on the psp would suffice, with a few updates. Some would argue for a full remake in line with modern, 3D Tales of games, but it'll be tough, but not impossible. Early 2D Tales, especially ToP, are different beasts in terms of gameplay to translate for modern sensibilities.

[@RegisSaikyou]

Oh, and this should be obvious, but every non-English released Tales game not yet named should also get a chance in the West as well.

[@MagillanicaLouM]

Yeah i certainly wouldn't want 3d remakes. The classic style still has it's place and I'm generally annoyed that the "remake any game older than me to be like games younger than me" mindset is so prevalent.

[@MrDarksol]

I agree with all of these with the exception of tales of graces F. It's a big huge personal story about it but to make a long story short combat is fine but I don't think the characters are that strong and the narrative is pretty weak. That being said I would like to bring up a counter to this and would suggest that I would love if tales of destiny remake were to come out instead. I know we have the original playstation one version of tales of destiny but like my friend and I have been discussing it would be great if we had the remake that was on PS2 instead because it has the CC system just like tales of graces F has it but done way better and it also has really good sprite work. Plus it's another Japanese only tales game that never got a chance to be released in the US. Aside from that every other game on this list I agree with you especially the duology and especially tales of the abyss. That was my 1st Tales game growing up and I have a lot of sentimental value with that specific game and the fact that it's never been re released outside of a 3-D S version but meanwhile you have Vesperia getting A PS4, PC and Switch versions and symphonia getting another re release AGAIN! I always felt it was disappointing that Abyss never got a chance to be remade. Overall with the exception of graces FI definitely agree with this list 110% and you can tell I was very disappointed when I found out that the one game they decided to remaster again would be symphonia and none of the other titles that they have already that never been released in the States or even saw a remaster or a re release. Still a solid list Alex!

I have been playing Tales of the Abyss in the last few weeks (haven't finished yet, but near the very end), and I do like it, but man I feel like it's so overrated. Mainly because of the last third of the game. The pacing it's so bad in this part. If you don't do sidequest, most of the time you just keep going from one city to the other, having little pieces of the plot, with a few fights in the middle. And I still don't like Luke, I don't care about Anise or Natalia either, but I like Guy and Tear, and I love Jade, he's the best character by far.

[@Road_to_Dawn]

Good list though Graces F isn't as good as everyone claims, but that's my opinion as I am not a fan of artes trees.

But, Destiny Remake/DC, Rebirth, Destiny 2 and the Japanese version of Legendia needs to happen.

What's your favorite games in the series?

@@BacklogBattle Tales of Berseria. The LMB there evolved to just the right point for me (the default became 3D movement, but when you lock-on to an enemy it's still linear combat), Velvet is a great character and I love Sato Rina so having her voice Velvet is a major plus for me.
