Whats the difference between tales of hearts and tales of hearts r?


Well, if you want the major changes for Hearts R...

The story had an overhaul, with a few scenes removed, many modified or added. New playable characters, which means writing them into the story too. More animation. More sub events, more areas and dungeons. More voicing for everyone. In short, the game is reworked and expanded.

Conversion to 3D battle system, and 3D system overall. Think more similar to Tales of Graces or Vesperia. Honestly the 2D battle system is extremely archaic, and this is a vast improvement. Combined with more characters and abilities to use, the battles are FAR superior.

If you have played the DS version, thought it was perfect, and are obsessed with the complete replication of every line, you may find fault. For normal people though, this is a remake, freed from the very restrictive limitations of the DS. Don't let anyone fool you, Hearts R is an improvement over the original, just like other later releases of Tales games (Symphonia PS2, Vesperia PS3, Graces F all come to mind). It is the definitive version to play.
