...aaaaaand I'm back.
Reckon I'm hopelessly last compared to all others, but now I am starting my Tales of Symphonia playthrough.
The reason being this late, is playing Tales of Zestiria first.

Jumping from Zestiria (ps4) to Symphonia (ps3) I expected the game to feel pretty old, but it feels surprisingly fresh.
This is my first playthrough of ToS and it soon becomes obvious that it is indeed a tales of game. I often dislike male protagonists in the series, but this one is not too bad I think.
The game seem to contain a bit more puzzles than the newer games, but the puzzles encountered so far have been easy.
I was slightly surprised at the desert prison, it felt like I had not completed the last puzzle to 100%, but still I got a cutscene and got out of the prison.

Now I am about to enter the Fire temple.

The fights this far have been easy and I have not been grinding at all.
The story, characters and the general feeling of the game is very much tales of and I am enjoying my time.

Nice to have you on board! (You must be spammed with all these messages quoting you :p)

It is definitely easy to miss a few chests with that rotating puzzle, but it's nothing serious

 

As always, feel free to give Ramdom or I a shout if you would like help on something because we played this game a bit too many times ;)
