....... The problem with Tales is that it caters to only a small fanbase. You cant expect major changes when you the shut the door to criticismon any non Tales diehard. Star Ocean is better with advancing because they develop games with a global mind and will global criticism. |
Tales has a fanbase of 1 million gamers in Japan. Its not that the base is small. It's that they are failing to capture it. It's exactly the opposite. Its because they changed the game to a state where its hadly recognisable by fans that its falling from grace. You say that the solution is to westernise or appeal to those that don't enjoy JRPG's? How does that work?
Poor star ocean. I enjoyed SO4 for alot but it was slammed in the west. I don't think SO5 will be any different.

Im not saying westernize it? Tales leader has made it quite clear that he only values the opinions of the diehard Japanese Tales fans and aims the series at them, but there are other players as well who may not be as complacent as the diehards and when you shut the door on all those criticism because they're not your diehards fans your shutting out room grow.
In regards to Star Ocean, it'll definitely do better than any Tales game.
