Tales of Legendia

[Siendra]

So am I the only person that preordered this... or for that matter cares that it's out in less then a week? I mean, we have a total lack of threadage for it. That's just wrong.

[Siendra]

Yeah... so I finally checked Game Rankings...and...uh...damn. Refund is in order, me thinks...

[Akito]

So you decided not to get the game just because some dumbass game publications didn't give it high scores? And for that matter, a 75% really isn't that bad.

I've heard that Legendia wasn't really the greatest Tales game (it was developed by a different team than the one that brought us Symphonia), but it certainly can't be too bad. I probably won't get it right away, though, because I have a million RPGs to play.

No, I'm trusting the large bulk of people I've found who imported the game and told me the gameplay downright sucks ass. Which more or less agrees with exactley what the reviews say.

And do try and remember a 7/10 somehow became average in most publications eyes.

[Mithrandir]

Hmm... I might get this.

If it has a good plot and interesting characters, then I really don't mind bad gameplay.

[Elitist Indie Hipster]

gamespot gave it 8.0 . Chances are i would trust their reviews more often than not.

[Elitist Indie Hipster]

So am i the only one that enjoys this game or no?

[Pickie]

I'm playing it as well but juggling two other RPGs (Tales of Eternia and Morrowind), school and my job so can only play a little bit at a time.

[Elitist Indie Hipster]

Tales of Eternia hows that? isdnt that for psp? is it good or no>?

[Siendra]

Eternia is for the PSX and PSP.

[Elitist Indie Hipster]

oooooooh....... dont i feel like an idiot now.

[Natsu]

damn.. you figured since its a Tales game that it would be good.. I'll jus wait till itbecomes a greatets hits

[Hero]

Supposedly Abyss is the absolute best Tales game this generation, so I'm tempted to buy Legendia to convince Namco to bring Abyss here.

On the other hand...SH3 comes out in a few weeks.

[Siendra]

I want abyss, but nothing can really make me want to play ToL.

[Pickie]

Tales of Eternia hows that? isdnt that for psp? is it good or no>?

Yeah as someone said earlier ToE was released for both PSX and PSP, was localized under the title Tales of Destiny II

The game is alright, shares a similar battle system to that of Legendia. The story is pretty average but still good.

[Ceraziefish]

I don't pretend to understand the complexities of the Tales series (as in, which ones were localized under which names) but I rather liked Tales of Destiny II (Tales of Eternia?). I'm nominally playing Tales of Symphonia, by which I mean every few months I pull it out and play it for roughly twenty hours straight, then take a break for "five minutes," forget the game exists, and leave it alone for another few months.

For example, I'm on disc 2, but according to the game I've only played twice in April 2005, twice in July 2005, and four times in December 2005.

[Akito]

I want Tales of Destiny 2 (you know, the REAL Tales of Destiny 2, the one that's for PS2, and is a true seqeul to the first Tales of Destiny, and isn't avaliable in America) more than any other Tales game. I'd also really like to play Rebirth because many people are saying that it's even better than Symphonia.

And as far as Abyss goes, Namco has NO EXCUSE for not releasing it in America. Also, from now and on, the only Namco games I'm ever going to buy are Tales games. So therefore, Namco won't get any of my business if they don't release any more Tales games here.

[Scarface]

Just like every rpg I haven't bought yet.......

I will get it eventually.
