Dude thank you for the call out to legendia. That soundtrack was pure gold and I loved the hell out of that game! This is a game that needs a full remaster just so it can be playable in the way it deserves to be. It'd probably be a huge money sink and terrible for them profit wise because this game isn't popular enough, but it'd be so nice to have for the OST alone. Plus poor Moses could actually hit something if it got a full overhaul. Also, I love Abyss. It's a game you have to play at least twice to truly see the MC as he is. He is the "hated" MC on your first play through. It's the second one that shows you just how much of his true growth and personality is there all along. Abyss needs more love. ❤

Xenosaga and Baten Kaitos are still with Bandai Namco and Square still has Xenogears. At the very least I want Nintendo to get the rights to Saga and Gears so the entire “Xeno series” is under one company and maybe Monolith could remake the older games and turn the whole thing into a connected universe of some kind.

I will never understand how Bamco did not capitalize on Tales of Arise's success in 2021, only to release story DLC 3 to 4 years later to a completely different gaming environment and expecting similar success. They even pissed off Tekken fans earlier this month ontop of pissing off Tales fans with this. It really feels like Bamco's passion for games is just straight up gone. If they can't keep a constant cash flow going with something, they'll drop it like a rock.

Its a shame that Tales of the Rays failed in the west because its still going strong in Japan and in my opinion its the perfect Tales game for mobile. It plays like a Tales game (you can check out combo videos on my channel or just watch gameplay on YT) and it does a fantastic job of bringing in all the characters as it has almost every notable Tales character you can think of with every single playable character from every game, most of the villains like Mithos, Van, Artorius, to even lesser known ones like Creed and Mathias to also having other mobile and spinoff games like Link, Crestoria and World Mythology available. Its super free to play friendly, just about every character is viable, tons of costumes, and just celebrated seven years of service. The biggest reason why Crestoria flopped was all the bugs and glitches plus coming out just before Genshin Impact and the bar for mobile games going up and Luminaria failed because it was a Tales game in name only and a very unprofitable monetization. But the other problem is it just can’t compete with what Rays offers in Japan and how many mobile games are basically becoming triple AAA games on your phone. They’d have to bring something out as high quality as Persona 5X to compete. In any case I suspect Bamco just doesn’t care because the games don’t bring in nearly as much money as their other properties like Elden Ring, Dragonball and Sword Art Online. And while it sucks, emulation is always available. When I got into the series through Abyss 3DS and the Vesperia remaster, I just emulated all the other games that weren’t on Steam or modern consoles besides Symphonia (had a working Wii). Yes its less than ideal but Bamco clearly doesn’t care and all the games work wonderfully on emulation.

The advertisments tried to make it sound closer to Genshin with exploration, they should focus on the character dynamics and story more😞 I think there was day 1 bugs in Crestoria that never got fixed? To a point where I think Crestoria would had ended much earlier if not for legacy characters. I also joked about writing feedback to send a signal if they are a team of 3 people locked up to work on the and needed help. Bamco just handle their games so poorly, it's sad to see

Maybe I'm too much of an optimist, but my hope is that these delistings are just a prelude to further remasters/ports. They did state their intention to do more of them, and I think they've learned the hard lesson from Symphonia that putting out low-effort, janky ports just won't cut it. But that being said, I do share your concerns about the series and it's preservation/availability on modern platforms. Who would've ever thought that Star Ocean would end up in a better state than the Tales series? All 6 mainline Star Ocean titles are finally available again on modern PlayStation systems worldwide. It's madness.

*_I hated Arise._* It was a very hand-holding title without any form of illusion to freedom (like in past games). I kept playing Arise, waiting for it to open up...only for the game to suddenly _end._ I hated the opening, where it just shot the player into the the world as a slave with little lead-up, and then we were suddenly free. Not having to play out that role for more than 30-minutes reduced the impact of the story set-up dramatically. Character meet-ups just sort of happened and then they're in the party. Then you go through a prairie, or a tundra, or a mountain pass or whatnot...and then new area! Boom, just like that! The snappiness of the game made me think there'd be a ship to roam around on to open the world and discover lands off the beaten path...but nope! Suddenly you've done a circle around the world, and suddenly you're in space, and suddenly you're in a tiny area of another world...and done. #&%@!!! I have no idea what the director was thinking. I've loved Tales since the first time I booted Phantasia on my Windows 95 with ZSNES with the legendary fan patch. I own and love every game that has come stateside (yes, even Legendia - that game had an excellent story, well-written characters, and that music...). Arise was just a huge flop for me. There were multiple examples on how to craft a "giant world" game that Arise was trying to be when in development, but the director did the exact opposite. The battle system...I think was okay? I put in several dozen hours and completed the game but I can't recall what made it different from the rest. The music was a giant compilation of, "Oh hey! I heard that song in that other Tales game, but it was better then than in this game." There was no classic 4-parts to the story like other Tales games: The opening, the story, the _real_ story after the huge plot twist, and the resolution - this is also was a reason why I kept waiting for the game to "open-up". But the biggest offense was just how _unoriginal_ the story was. To the long time Tales fans, remember Destiny II/Eternia on the original Playstation? Remember the basic world set-up: Inferia, Celestia, and the Orbus Barrier between? Remember how the king believed (for a wet few moments) that Meredy was an advance agent sent to enslave the citizens of Inferia (who were undergoing a basic 16th century tech boom) with their superior technology or whatever? Arise is that. Or maybe Arise is Symphonia, with the same premise but no control switch for the mana collection but similar enslavement story. Or Destiny, where the folks of "Er'the" rebelled against those of the scientifically-advanced Aethersphere high above that happened a thousand years before the game started. Or Maybe Graces _f_ but this time the people of the "land below" are slaves instead of refugees except _surprise!_ Hell, I can make the same argument with the story of _Legendia_ in how the inhabitants of the world are refugees who forgot their origins. Long story short: _Arise did nothing new with its story._ Any fan of the series had seen the story done before, only better. Everything, save arguably the graphics, had been "done better" in previous games. Things were teased but never really delivered (like the battles with the monsters named after the Greater Spirits...they're just battles). Everything about Arise was just the company shouting from the rooftops, *"Remember how awesome we used to be?! WE SUCK NOW!!"*

You seem to know what you are talking about. On your last paragraph: perfect encapsulating of the situation They went hard on the graphics and the modernization of the series( after years of visual behind the times) and unfortunately it worked out as media focused on promoting the game that way and people mostly bought it because of that. Meanwhile those reviews seemed oblivious to the fact that the series had 30 years of history under its belt. And overall Arise was treated more like aan action game than an RPG. How did it win RpG of the year? You think tales have good stories? perhaps but improving the storytelling has been my desire for the series since the beginning. Arise did nothing in that regard. Overall, rpgs in general, not just Tales, often forget to improve upon what worked in the past.

Another sad thing is that the people directly involved with Tales definitely know of the western fans. There was a popularity poll a few years back that asked for the most beloved games and separated between answers from Japan and overseas and when they saw the massive difference between the two when it came to Destiny (which is btw stuck on the PS1 in the West), the hosts remarked how they would love to show people why Destiny is so beloved in Japan. They also had a character popularity poll and Lloyd made it pretty far in it. The hosts even commented on how a big chunk of the votes for him were from the west. But all that doesn't do much when the higher-ups at Bamco just say No.

This was a very interesting watch while I completely forgot about the Franchise, seriously. Tales of is in a very weird spot currently at Bandai Namco. I do not think the situation is any better in Japan besides the Tales of Festival and a few mobile games. The series kinda vanished the moment Tales of Producer Hideo Baba left the company to start his own at Square Enix, and we all know how this turned out (studio was shut down without releasing a single game). It was thanks to Baba that the series tackled the West again. The helm went over to Katsuhiro Harada of Tekken and Xenogears fame, but he made clear that he isn't interested that much in Tales of (but would love to see a new Xenogears) and he actually don't have the time to manage the franchise. After a while the helm went on to the current Tales of Brand-Manager, Yusuke Tomizawa who promised a lot of stuff like Remasters and even Remakes of unreleased games in the West (there are even more unreleased Tales of here in Europe) to fill the gap between the bigger games. None of it happened, in fact, he was the one who said countless times there will be no DLC for Arise. I don't think there currently is anyone at Bandai Namco games capable of handling the once so popular Franchise. But Bandai Namco itself might be the problem here. There focus is making big money with Tekken 8 over the next years and of course releasing cheaply made licensed Anime-Games. There isn't much room anymore at Bandai Namco for quality games like Tales of, Xenogears or even the .Hack Series.

I'm not surprised Bamco doesn't feel like supporting the series in the west. Also, I think it being a yearly franchise hurt it in the long run. Every game features a lot of reused assets from the previous game hurting their replayability. Such is the inevitable fate of every other yearly franchise.

Being a Tales of fan in the West is accepting that you're the unloved child in the family. Namco brought 1 Tales of the World game. I picked it up one Boxing day sale at a Gamebuzz (which have all closed down). I looooved that game. Then found out there were 2 sequels! And then all the Narikiri dungeon games!!!! A whole world of portable Tales games just never came stateside. Then to find out that a lot of early Tales games DID come stateside, but are extremely difficult to get a hold of (Destiny, Eternia), and a toooon of games that have never come over like Rebirth, Destiny 2, Phantasia X. I absolutely LOVE the respect the translation community because they have made so many games playable and enjoyable. I haven't gotten around to beating them, but I have my eyes on Tempest, Innocence, Destiny DC. Thanks for continuing to talk about Tales games with your platform. I'll continue to try and playing all the games, like the PSP games like Tales of Brave, and such.

Not to be rude, but I actually hated the way Xillia 2 ended with Ludger essentially dying because I believed until then (never played Symphonia until the PS3 release) that the main party of a Tales game would never lose a member because of death in-story. I started falling off the newer games because of Zestiria’s bare feeling story, lackluster dub audio performances and the fact Alisha is REPLACED by Rose (I.e. my most HATED Tales character after Ivar in Xillia, Milla’s “disciple”) and the story feels worse without her. Berseria, being a “prequel” to this game, didn’t help and I thought it was too dark for my taste and I haven’t even gotten HALFWAY into Arise (feels like I haven’t really touched it.) My first Tales game was actually the “underappreciated” Wii sequel with Emil, Marta and Tenebrae and I still say none have topped Vesperia in terms of narrative, character developments and interactions, skits or even music. Yuri Lowell is top tier Tales protagonist. I loved the series for the character growths, the music and how absurdly hilarious the skits were (the non-story focused ones) that I felt they lost their “sense of humor” ever since the PS4. Xillia 2, at least, had humorous cutscenes and skits inbetween the main plot that are worth a rewatch (like everyone taking turns using Teepo as a puppet or Jude’s “awkward alone time” with Milla or even the “size comparison” of Alvin and Gaius). To this day, I am still ASHAMED that I wasted money on the Collector’s Edition to a game I grew to hate. The premise of humans becoming monsters felt too much like my other big JRPG franchise I followed to no end, Kingdom Hearts. In all honesty, I don’t want games that look like they are the same world because of art style (a huge positive that each entry was stylized different), I don’t want entries that have bleak outlooks like Arise starts with, I don’t want skits like the newer style they did…I’d really like a Tales game that stuck to its humorous side alongside its narrative like DotNW or Vesperia. If they wanted a game to feel more like modern times, the reality of Xillia 2 works. Sorry for me rambling on so long.
